Here’s what made local headlines in 2015January

Al Cleaver, a former fi re chief of Surrey who championed the city’s history and heritage, passes away at the age of 88. Cleaver retired as fi re chief in 1986 aft er serving 28 years.

Off -duty police Sgt. Derek King saves a grandmother and a little girl when he sees smoke and fl ames erupting from a home in Clayton. He knocks on the door, alerts the grandmother, then goes from room to room, scooping up the toddler to safety. In November, King is awarded an Award of Valour from the Ministry of Justice.

FebruaryMarketPlace IGA

in Cloverdale closes aft er 19 years as the anchor store at Clover Square Village, leaving downtown residents who don’t drive without a full-service grocery store. A replacement is in the wings but there will be a gap in service for months.

AprilDue to budgetary

constraints, the Clover-dale Business Improve-ment Association an-nounces it will nix two signature community events for the year: Th e Cloverdale Blueberry Festival and the annual Halloween costume parade.

Bombarded by aerial spraying by ear-ly-morning helicopter to combat the destruc-tive gypsy moth, some Cloverdale residents say

they’re concerned with the biological agent being used on more than 4,500 hectares in Surrey, prompting a pe-tition. In December, the treatment is declared a success.

May One of Surrey’s oldest

buildings, the Loyal Orange Lodge No. 1471, built in 1891, is torn down by the city, despite being set aside for heritage preserva-tion and restoration aft er being relocated to Surrey Centre Ceme-tery decades ago.

Vancouver Lego Club use one million plastic bricks to portray 20 millennia of Fraser Val-

ley history an imagina-tion-fi lled extravaganza at the Surrey Museum. Six minutely detailed dioramas form Lego: A Fraser Valley Odyssey, which runs from June 2 to Sept. 19, telling the story of the Fraser Valley’s prehistoric past, bustling present and post-dystopic future.

Cadets gratefulTo the editor;In this season of giving, we

were the grateful benefactors of some community donations for our 2277 Seaforth Highlanders Royal Canadian Army Cadet Corps Langley annual recre-ation of the 1943 Ortona Dinner (“Cadets Dine on Scrounged Food,” Dec. 23).

Our cadets eat the same Christmas meal that Canadian soldiers ate during that Second World War battle in Italy.

DeLorme Food Services Inc. donated all the roast pork, Langley A&W owner Nick Nu-rancy donated all the root beer (which cadets got instead of the beer that the soldiers had!), and Ryan at Save-On Walnut Grove who donated potatoes, cauli-fl ower, and oranges.

Royal Canadian Legion Cloverdale Branch 6 graciously allowed 2277 Corps to use their kitchen and the dining area for the annual Ortona Dinner. We had a great group of parents who spent all day preparing and cooking the dinner in the kitch-en. It was a lot of work, but also a lot of fun to get to know each other a bit better. Th e offi cers

donated their time to serve the cadets, just like the offi cers did in 1943.

Our Parent Sponsoring Com-mittee paid all this kindness for-ward by making arrangements with Willow Addictions to pick up all the left overs, which they then served to those in need in Langley the next day.

A big thank you to everyone!

SkyTrain is bestNow that funding is in sight,

the City of Surrey should focus on SkyTrain extension from King George to Langley.

I simply don’t understand why the City of Surrey is insisting on LRT instead of SkyTrain ex-tension to Langley and Newton. LRT will increase congestion on

already congested streets. Sky-Train will encourage thousands of drivers to leave their cars. Th at will increase fare revenue for TransLink.

SkyTrain saves travel time. Th e value of time-savings and additional revenue is worth bil-lions of dollars as the rapid tran-sit systems last for a long time. Th us SkyTrain system is much cheaper than LRT. Th e Paris and London underground systems are about 150 years old. Even Toronto’s subway is 60 years old. By reducing the number of cars on the road, the SkyTrain will also help the environment.

All other cities in Metro have SkyTrain systems. Even the Broadway-UBC link is being proposed as a SkyTrain or sub-way line.

How bad at-grade LRT could be? Just watch the Destroyed in Seconds Houston Metro Rail video on YouTube. Th ere were a record of 62 accidents in just one year.

Building LRT on already busy 104 Avenue between Surrey Centre and Guildford Centre will just be suicidal.

City of Surrey makes the ‘naughty list’

By Kevin DiakiwUnfl atteringly, the City of Surrey has made

the annual naughty list of the watchdog for B.C. taxpayers.

Jordan Bateman, B.C. director of the Canadian Taxpayers’ Federation (CTF), released the group’s naughty and nice list for 2015.

Topping the naughty list is the City of Surrey, which raised tax bills substantially this year – de-spite election promises to the contrary in 2014.

“Fresh off an election campaign where no incum-bent mentioned a tax hike, council brought in a new $100 recreation levy, a 2.9-per-cent property tax in-crease and a 28-per-cent jump in secondary suite fees,” Bateman wrote in his reasoning for placing this city on the naughty list.

“Now Surrey is looking at keeping the ‘tempo-rary’ one-per-cent road levy, another 2.9-per-cent property tax hike, a 3.9-per-cent increase in fees and levies, and a 10-per-cent jump in the recreation levy.”

Mayor Linda Hepner said it’s a bit unfair to place Surrey on such a list as the city has some of the low-

est taxes on the region.She also pointed out that Surrey is one of the most

effi ciently run municipalities on several fronts, in-cluding civic costs per person and the number of staff running the city.

Bateman said Surrey won’t be able to claim that for long if it keeps raising taxes.

Th e CTF also placed Victoria council on the naughty list for several spending mistakes.

And Premier Christy Clark made the naughty list for her increase in the Medical Services Premium.

Ferry dealBC Ferries and the

BC Ferry and Marine Workers’ Union have ratifi ed a fi ve-year agreement that pro-vides for wage increases of 8.55 per cent by its expiry in October 2020.

BC Ferries CEO Mike Corrigan de-scribed the wage and benefi t provisions of the new contract as “fair and modest,” noting that the latest agree-

ment means the coastal ferry service will have gone 17 years without a labour dispute aff ecting its operations.

Th e agreement, rat-ifi ed by members aft er it was endorsed by the union executive in Oc-tober, provides average pay increases of 1.71 per cent per year. Th ere are about 3,500 union members working for BC Ferries.

Weight loss can be easy. “Heard that before”, right? What do we expect from an ideal weight loss program? Fast, healthy results, an easy-to-follow protocol, not feeling tired or hungry while on the program, long-term weight maintenance, and cessation of chronic medications are a few things that one might hope for. Those who have tried multiple weight loss programs, whether it be a commercially-available program or one that they do on their own may think that it is impossible for all of these wishes to be met. However, they will see that the “IDEAL PROTEIN” (IP) Weight Loss Protocol can satisfy these demands, and more.

The IP Program is a medically-designed protocol and lifestyle education program that supports muscle mass, while promoting fat loss, thus greatly minimizing the risk of “metabolic syndrome” (high blood pressure, high cholesterol, high blood glucose, and obesity). Through weekly one-on-one coaching, lifestyle education and guidance, dieters gain an understanding of how food affects and is utilized by the body. Weekly Body Composition Analysis (BCA) readings are used as an objective

tool to guide the coach in helping develop a personalized approach to setting your weight loss goals.

The four phases of the program stabilize blood sugar levels while improving cholesterol levels and reducing blood pressure. The program starts with a partial meal replacement program that

supplements the dieters’ cooking one healthy meal a day, and gradually replaces the meal replacements with balanced meals using whole foods only. The � rst phase lowers insulin production in the body allowing for dramatic weight loss and as the program moves through phases two and three, it gradually increases the level of insulin production until the body is stabilized. Phase four provides a year of support while the patient learns how to adapt their eating patterns and food choices to maintain their weight loss while eating fresh, whole foods only. Chronic medications for diabetes, cholesterol, and blood pressure are literally immediately reduced during Phase 1 with the help of your Cloverdale Pharmasave pharmacist and physician.

The IP Program is PREDICTABLE, MEASURABLE and REPEATABLE, as evidenced by thousands of successful patients in North America since its introduction over � fteen years ago. Originally, the program was developed to allow competitive athletes to lose body fat without dropping any muscle mass. The program is only offered through

medical professionals and is overseen by our trained Cloverdale Pharmasave pharmacists, who are there throughout your entire IP journey.

Do your body a favour. Stop by Cloverdale Pharmasave to see a model of what 5lbs of fat looks like. Then, imagine how you would look if you weren’t carrying around even just that 5lbs. More importantly, imagine how much better you would feel. Monthly seminars are available in-store to get you started on Ideal Protein.

Christine and Fred are registered pharmacists with training in Natural Health Products and a passion for Integrative Medicine. They work side-by -side at their unique family-owned and operated Pharmasave in Downtown Cloverdale, BC. Their pharmacy team specializes in natural remedies and compounding for both human and veterinarian use.

Choices galore for locals looking to recycle their trees

By Jennifer LangIt’s an environmental-

ly-friendly and convenient way to start off the new year: taking your Christmas tree to get chipped, instead of consigning it to the dustbin, where it will eventually wind up in a landfi ll.

Residents of Cloverdale have plenty of options nearby. Th ere are a number of local tree chipping events planned aft er the holidays, and they’re all in support of worthwhile causes.

• Adams Road Elemen-tary hosts its sixth annual tree chipping and bottle drive Saturday, Jan. 2 (10:30 a.m. to 3 p.m.) at the school, 18228 68 Avenue. It’s by donation. Th ere will be Langley River-

men tickets by donation, while supplies last.

Extra Pro-D day selected Th e Surrey School District has chosen

April 18 as its second extra Professional Development day to review the new B.C. curriculum.

Th e provincial government has mandat-ed school districts schedule two addition-al pro-d days into this year to familiarize school staff on the curriculum.

Surrey held its fi rst extra day on Nov. 12. Normally the district has six professional de-velopment days in the year, not eight.

Immigration slows growthB.C.’s population reached 4.7 million

by Oct. 1, a gain of less than one per cent from the same time last year.

Th e province’s population growth rate was down to 0.8 per cent by the third quar-ter of 2015, Central 1 Credit Union reports in its latest B.C. Economic Briefi ng.

Net international migration was the main reason for the slowdown, with 11,100 international arriv-als during what is usually the highest period of the year for immigration gains.

Within Canada, interprovin-cial migration climbed to nearly 5,000 in the third quarter of 2015, as people re-turned home to a relatively buoyant B.C. economy from provinces hit by slumping oil prices, notably Alberta, Saskatchewan and Newfoundland.

While permanent international resident arrivals were slower, international tourism demand climbed to more than 400,000 people by October, due mainly to U.S. vis-itors taking advantage of a lower Canadian dollar.

Dam contract commitsBC Hydro has signed its main civil

works contract for the Site C dam on the Peace River, for an eight-year project ex-pected to cost $1.75 billion and generate 8,000 person-years of employment.

Th e contract is with Peace River Hydro Partners, made up of Petrowest Corp. of Calgary, ACCIONA Infrastructure Cana-

da, a division of a Spanish con-struction fi rm, and Samsung C&T Canada Ltd., a division of the Korean engineering and electronics company.

Th e contract covers con-struction of the earth-fi ll dam, two diver-sion tunnels and a concrete foundation for the generating station and spillways.

Site preparation work is underway for the third dam on the Peace River near Fort St. John, and a work camp capable of hosting up to 1,500 workers is under construction.

NDP leader John Horgan and B.C. Federation of Labour president Irene Lanzinger both denounced the lack of job guarantees for B.C. workers in the contract.

BC Hydro says three quarters of the workers currently on the site are from B.C.

Rival schools unite in a spirit of generosityBy Jennifer LangTwo high schools, one long-last-

ing rivalry, and a local charity that needs their help. Th e challenge? To see which school could collect the most donations of non-perishable food items and cash for Clover-dale’s less fortunate.

Th is year, let’s just say Lord Tweedsmuir Secondary School’s student council co-presidents are good sports (they agreed to visit the winning school and pose for photos wearing Clayton Heights Secondary School gear) and the big winner is the Cloverdale Christmas Hamper Program.

Clayton Heights won this year’s challenge, raising $856 in cash and collecting 9,015 items, with Lord Tweedsmuir raising $1,900 in cash, and collecting 3,500 donations.

“We’re so proud of our schools, because the students and teachers really pulled together this year, and were able to give back to Cloverdale much more than previous years,”

said Hannah Hollander, co-student council president at LTS. “It’s great to see the positive impact we can have on our local community.”

Clayton Heights’ Project Equal club led the food drive at that school, where, according to SarahDaintrey, teacher sponsor, the

challenge with Lord Tweedsmuir has been running for fi ve years.

“Th ey came through this year, they really did,” added executive

council member Emily Markwart.Both schools have been busy

with other community-minded eff orts; for example, in addition to Tweedsmuir’s food drive, the school’s Girl’s Leadership group raised 2,400 in donated items for homeless shelter care packages.

Power of manyNot to be outdone, in November,

LTS’s Power of One leadership group for boys in grades 9-12 served at a soup kitchen in Vancouver’s Down-town Eastside.

At Harbour Light Soup Kitchen, they served food, washed dishes, col-lected plates, and scraped dishes.

“It was a fast-paced, hour and a half shift serving over 380 peo-ple,” said Alan Wu, student coun-cil co-president and Power of One member. “We got to see the streets of the Eastside, and talk to some of the people there,” he said. “It sure was an eye-opener and makes you look at life in a diff erent perspective.”

Homegrown fundraiser helps homeless teensBy Jennifer LangCloverdale’s Kristin

McMahon is only 11, but she can imagine how diffi cult life would be if she was a former foster child facing life as an adult.

She’d been hearing about recent headlines involving youth aging out of foster care – the system considers them adults at 19, when they graduate from the child welfare system, although it’s a diffi cult time of transition for youth lacking stable parental and family

supports.“As we looked into

this more, she said to me, ‘Imagine if I was 18 and you kicked me out? What would I do? Where would I go? How would I eat?” her mother Sonja War-wick-McMahon recalls her asking.

For three years now, the McMahons have hosted an annual fund-raiser open house, with Kristin choosing the charity.

Th is year, Kristin chose Covenant House, an organization with

an outreach program where teams visit the streets of Vancouver to make contact with homeless and street youth, off ering food, clothing, counselling and service referrals.

Th ere’s also a walk-in support centre, residen-tial crisis shelter, and a transitional supportive housing program. Th e organization is 95 per cent privately funded through individuals, corporations, foun-dations, schools and community groups.

Th e McMahons

invited friends, relatives, and neighbours to their gath-ering, where they shared information with guests.

Th ey also set up a donation page on the Covenant House website, and collected household items for the cause, dropping off the items before Christmas.

Covenant House says there are between

500 and 1,000 homeless youth living on Vancou-ver’s streets. Many of them are runaways; there are more than 10,000 runaways re-ported in B.C. each year.

About 700 former foster children age

out of the child welfare system annually, and an estimated 40 per cent of homeless were in the foster system.

CONTRIBUTED PHOTOKristin McMahon and her friends Cole, Tori and Teagan enjoy some of the food they made for the open house.

Have a safe, healthy holiday season with your furry family membersAt this time of year, there are plenty of festive decorations and seasonal treats in B.C. homes. Yet the holidays can be hazardous for your pets. The BC SPCA o� ers these tips to help keep your furry companions safe this holiday season.• Bones are Bad: Avoid giving bones to your dogs or cats, particularly turkey bones. Poultry bones easily splinter and can cause serious injury, while bone fragments can cause intestinal blockages or lacerations.• Thoughtful Treats: Chocolate and other sweets should not be given to animals. Chocolate contains theobromine, a chemical that can be deadly to cats and dogs, though not harmful to humans. The best thing you can do for your pet over the holidays is to keep them on their regular diet. Look for healthy animal treats instead of giving your animal companions cookies, rich snacks or sweets meant for people. • Poisonous Plants: Many popular holiday plants are poisonous to animals including mistletoe, holly, ornamental pepper and Christmas rose. Remember to keep these plants out of reach of pets – especially birds. Poinsettias are not poisonous to pets or people. This has been a long-standing rumour perpetuated for decades. Some pets may have a sensitivity to the

latex contained in the plant and may get diarrhea or vomit. • Tinsel is Trouble: Having a Christmas tree and pets can be troublesome. Ensure the tree is well-secured and try to place the decorations above paw height. Using string to hang decorations instead of hooks helps, as hooks can be easily dislodged. If possible, use non-breakable ornaments. Avoid using tinsel or angel hair – cats and dogs will ingest both, which can cause intestinal problems. Cords for lights should be made inaccessible to pets, especially chewing puppies and exploring kittens. If you add chemicals to the water reservoir of your Christmas tree to help it last longer, keep in mind those chemicals are toxic to animals and keep the reservoir covered.• Toy Watch: Avoid purchasing pet toys with small or soft pieces that can be chewed and swallowed. Nylon bones tend to splinter less than plastic ones. Be sure to inspect pet toys regularly and discard deteriorating ones.

Giants looking good at mid-seasonBy Rick KupchukTh e fi rst half of the

72-game regular season began well and ended well for the Vancouver Giants.

Th e fi rst three weeks of the regular season saw the Giants get off to a 4-3-2 (win-loss-over-time loss) start to the season, earning points at a rate which would ensure the Western Hockey League team would qualify for the playoff s.

Th e three weeks just prior to the holiday break were even better, as they went 7-3-1.

It was a disastrous seven-week stretch from mid-October to late November, which saw the team go 1-13-2, that has put the Giants in the hole they will need to climb out of over the fi nal half of the season.

Vancouver is 12-19-5 aft er 36 games, the halfway point of the regular season. Th ey are last in Western Con-ference standings, but need to overtake just two rivals in order to climb into the top eight and participate in the playoff s. And if they can maintain their level of play over the fi rst three weeks of Decem-ber, they should be able to reach the postseason.

A much-improved defensive record is behind much of their success over the past 11 games. Aft er giving up an average of 4.08 goals against per game in the fi rst 25 games of the season, they have lowered that fi gure to 2.28 over the next 11.

Goaltender Ryan Kubic is one of the rea-sons why. Th e 17-year-old appeared in just 10 of Vancouver’s fi rst 25 games of the season, losing all eight deci-sions (0-7-1).

In the past 11 games, he’s started all 11, going 7-2-1. His goals against average has dropped from 2.28 over the fi rst two months of the season to 1.85 during the recent streak. A save percentage of .878 has improved consid-erably, as Kubic posted a .937 mark, with three shutouts, over the most recent three weeks.

Matt Barberis has been contributing off ensively all season, but his defensive num-bers have improved considerably in the past month. Th e White Rock native is quietly putting together a solid rookie season, leading all Giants defencemen in scoring with fi ve goals and 13 assists. But while he was a a-13 through the fi rst 25 games of the season,

he’s been a plus-4 in the past 11.

Veteran Chase Lang, 19, and rookie Tyler Benson have stepped up their off ensive production during the recent run. Lang, who had three goals in 14 games with the Giants following his trade to Vancouver from Calgary in late October, has eight in his past 11.

Benson, a 17-year-old projected to be a potential fi rst round pick in next sumer’s National Hockey League Entry Draft , has four goals and 12 assists in the recent run, aft er totaling just nine ap-points in the previous 15 games.

Th e Giants will likely need to play .500 hock-

ey over the fi nal half of the season to reach the playoff s. If they play up to the standard set in December, they will achieve that goal.

Blue LinesTh e Giants will have

nine prospects playing in the Mac’s Midget AAA Tournament in Calgary this week. Th e tournament, which began Saturday (Dec. 26) and runs through to Friday (Jan. 1).

Th ree prospects are with the Yorkton Maul-ers. Th ey include de-fenceman Kaleb Bulych, a 2015 second round draft pick, and forwards Kaeden Taphorn (2015 third round selection) and Tristyn DeRoose.

Goaltender David Tendeck, selected in the sixth round of the 2014 draft , will be playing with the Vancouver Gi-ants of the BC Hockey Major Midget League. Other Giants prospects currently on teams from the BC league playing in Calgary are forwards Haydn Delorme (2015 ninth round pick) for-

ward Haydn Delorme of the Vancouver Chiefs and James Malm (2014 second round pick) of the Valley West Hawks.

Jordan Biro was picked up as an affi liate player by the Sherwood Park Kings of the Alber-ta Midget AAA Hockey League. Th e forward was listed by the Giants this past summer.

Alex Kannok-Keipert a defenceman, will play for the Regina Pat Canadians. He was a fourth round pick in 2014.

Defenceman Austin King-Cunningham, listed this past fall, will play for the Moose Jaw Generals.
