Transit-tax campaign won’t be easy, mayor says

Surrey earmarks up to $300,000 for ‘yes’

Homeless support

Steps in the right directionNick Greenizan & Evan SealStaff Reporters

A few hours in the rain can go an awfully long way.

That is the message that will be sent this Saturday, when teams of walkers will gather in cities across Canada – 82 in all, including White Rock, Surrey and Clover-dale – for the Coldest Night of the Year walk, which raises money to combat homelessness.

White Rock’s event, hosted by Sources Community Services, has always been one of the organiza-tion’s most important fundraisers.

And this year, the event holds even more significance, since Sources’ Newton-based homeless-ness-prevention services lost about $200,000 in annual government funding last month.

Now, the community organiza-tion is aiming to cover the lost funds itself, through fundraisers and pledge drives like Coldest Night.

This weekend, participants will walk a two-, five- or 10-km route, with teams raising money through pledges. Since 2011, the Coldest Night of the Year has raised $4.9 million across Canada.

Surrey is spending between $200,000 and $300,000 on its ‘yes’ campaign for a pro-posed new transit tax this spring.

The ‘yes’ campaign launched at Surrey City Hall last week, with the mayor expressing the need for a 0.5-per-cent increase in the seven-per-cent provincial sales tax to pay for improved transit and transportation infra-structure throughout the region.

Some of the work planned for Surrey

includes a light rail system, more buses and a new Pattullo Bridge.

Metro Vancouver mayors are leading the charge on the ‘yes’ side, with newly elected Surrey Mayor Linda Hepner calling securing a ‘yes’ vote her first order of business.

Hepner said Thursday the city is earmarking between $200,000 and $300,000 for expenses for its ‘yes’ campaign. Hepner believes costs will be closer to $200,000. That’s equivalent to the annual property taxes on 115 homes worth $650,000 in Surrey.

Regionally, Hepner said, the Mayors’ Council will spend “a few million” dollars on the ‘yes’ campaign.

In Surrey, the city will be using its own staff and printing department, and will be mak-ing heavy use of social media to keep costs low, she said. Surrey will also be paying for consultants and some advertising.

Hepner acknowledges the ‘yes’ campaign has some challenging work ahead.

“We certainly do, it’s not going to be an easy ‘yes,’” Hepner said.

She noted the challenge will be keeping people focused on the transit plan, rather than the inner workings of TransLink.

“It’s not unlike a political campaign, except it’s more important to the region,” Hepner told Black Press.

Ballots will start going out by mail to Metro Vancouver homes on March 16. Voters have until May 29 to mail back their response.

To participate, residents must be regis-tered to vote in B.C. To register or update your voter registration, call 1-800-661-8683.

For proof of Coldest Night’s effectiveness closer to home, one needn’t look further than one of Sources’ own employees, Naomi Glenvad, and her son, Sean Neil.

Glenvad, a program manager at a Sources-run group home for autistic adults in Ladner, took part in last year’s White Rock walk, and she also brought along Neil, 17, and the fam-ily’s homestay student, Linc, from Shanghai.

“The event came up, and they weren’t really doing anything, and the walk seemed like such a good idea, so I said, ‘OK, you’re coming with me. So they were kind of ‘volun-told’ last year,” Glenvad laughed.

The walk – in rainy, cold weather – had an effect on both teens, she said, because it forced them to think about the issue at hand.

“It did get me thinking about my future a little bit, and about how unpredictable things are,” said Neil. “We were walking in a constant mist, and it was so cold. When it really sunk in for me, when I really realized what it was all about, was when my feet went numb. I remember trying to wiggle my toe, but it was too cold and I couldn’t feel it.

“We were only outside a couple hours – but it felt like longer. I guess nature just decided to give us a more realistic experience.”

Though his mom pushed him to attend last year’s event, Neil looks forward to this year.

“I’m happy to be a part of it. It makes you think… It’s cold and wet, but that’s just one night. What happens the rest of the time?”

Last year, the Coldest Night walk raised $45,000 in White Rock, and this year, orga-nizers are aiming for $80,000.

Teams have been collecting money for weeks, and one Peninsula woman is even using her birthday as a reason to raise money. Patti Parkinson – whose team, “54 and Hold-ing,” had raised $685 by press deadline Mon-day afternoon – has been canvassing friends and family to donate, in lieu of birthday gifts, and she’s inviting the community to do the same in advance of the walk.

Surrey’s other walks will take place in Whalley, hosted by the Surrey Urban Mis-sion, and in Cloverdale, with funds raised also going to help those who are homeless and living below the poverty line.

“Often organizations struggle with their fun-draising and this is a fun, family way to draw people in the community to just walk and raise funds for various organizations,” said Jim Heuving, executive pastor at Pacific Com-munity Church, the host group in Cloverdale.

“Last year, we had the walk and our goal was to raise $30,000 and we raised $64,000. It was a really huge boost.”

The church, located at 5337 180 St., began serving community meals in 2013. Organiz-ers hope to use money raised from Coldest Night to not only feed those in need, but to increase use of the kitchen for skills training and catering opportunities.

The community kitchen sees a cross-sec-tion of clients, Heuving says, from the home-less, to the mentally ill, to the working poor, and recently, more seniors who are finding it hard to get by have been showing up.

“That’s why we call it a community kitchen. It’s a place where people can gather,” he said. “Food is only the front door to connect people with community resources. We have to care for our own.”

newsChaotic classroom left kids in tears

Surrey elementary teacher disciplined

Murder charge

Cailléout on bailSarah MassahStaff Reporter

The man accused of murdering White Rock resident Bruce Ridout has been released from custody while he awaits the start of his trial.

Jeffrey Caillé, who was 22 at the time of his arrest last summer, was released on $100,000 bail recog-nizance, with surety, but without deposit, on Feb. 6.

Among conditions, the bail order dictates he is to be released in the company of his father or mother, and is to reside with one or the other in Quebec. He is also not to be out-side the home, except in the com-

pany of specified individuals.

Caillé is charged with second-degree murder, one count of assault causing bodily harm and two counts of assault in connection with the Aug. 10 death of the

longtime Peninsula resident, at his home in the 900-block of Ash Street.

Prior to his release, Caillé was being held at Port Coquitlam’s Col-ony Farms.

On Caillé’s Facebook page, the accused changed his profile photo a day after his release to one of him-self snowboarding with a woman. Underneath the Feb. 7 photo, Caillé had commented “perfect day!”

When asked by an acquain-tance if he was “fine now,” Caillé responded “yep!”

Friends and family of Ridout, 64, have eagerly awaited information about the trial, with some attending Caillé’s brief appearances in court.

Ridout was discovered in his home following numerous 911 calls from neighbours. Witnesses reported see-ing a man attacking a woman on the street outside the residence and, later, knives and other objects being thrown off the balcony.

Caillé is schedule to appear in Surrey Provincial Court May 19 to begin his preliminary hearing.

Sheila ReynoldsBlack Press

A substitute teacher in Surrey whose “cha-otic” classrooms had children crying on more than one occasion and who once left kindergarten kids outside at the end of the day, has been disciplined by the B.C. Com-missioner for Teacher Regulation (BCCTR).

David Lee Burns worked as an on-call teacher in the Surrey School District, filling in at several elementary schools from 2009 to 2014.

According to a consent-resolution agree-ment made public by the BCCTR, the inci-

dents in question related to times he worked at Panorama Park, Bear Creek and Don Christian elementary schools.

In November 2013 at Panorama, he didn’t follow the lesson plan left by the kindergar-ten teacher and let things get so chaotic in the classroom that more than one student was in tears.

At the end of the day, he took the class of five-year-olds outside and didn’t return them to the classroom for proper dismissal, leaving the children on the playground dur-ing a busy time when the rest of the school was being dismissed.

In January 2014, covering a Grade 6/7 class at Bear Creek, he again didn’t follow the teacher’s plan, despite leaving a note saying he had done so.

He also provided “minimal instruction” and much of the day was “free time,” accord-ing to the BCCTR agreement, leaving the kids confused about what they were sup-posed to do.

The class was so chaotic – children were coming and going freely, throwing paper air-planes, talking loudly and running around – that a frustrated child was found in the hallway crying.

During two days the next month at Don Christian, the teacher’s lesson plan again was again not followed.

The school district had reprimanded Burns five years earlier, after an investiga-tion revealed he had not properly evacuated students in his care during a fire drill, hadn’t dismissed them properly and failed to read the on-call teacher file as required.

A second discipline letter was issued by the district after the 2013 and 2014 incidents.

In November last year, the teacher-regula-tion branch investigated and Burns admitted to professional misconduct.

Consuls attend celebration

200 yearsof peaceAlex BrowneStaff Reporter

The treaty was, literally, in the mail.That was the reason U.S. and British forces

(including Canadian-based troops) were still fighting – including the fabled Battle of New Orleans of story and song – at the beginning of 1815.

It was a fact commented on at a small celebration at the Peace Arch Friday that marked the 200th anniversary of the actual end of hostilities in the War of 1812.

Some 50 spectators heard that as soon as the Treaty of Ghent reached the U.S. by ship, it was ratified by Congress and signed by President James Madison on Feb. 17, 1815.

Organized by Christina Alexander and the United States Canada Peace Anniver-sary Association, the event drew U.S. Con-sul General Lynne Platt, Canadian Consul General James Hill, British Consul Robin Twyman and Ronald Masnik, honorary con-sul general of Belgium – where the Treaty of Ghent was negotiated and signed.

Also on hand for the celebration were the 10th White Rock Scouts colour guard, and representatives of the Washington-based Society of 1812 and the Daughters of 1812, while Alexander sang the Peace Arch Anthem, Children of a Common Mother.

In describing the war as a “conflict that was an unfortunate outgrowth of the Napoleonic wars,” Platt noted the late end of the hostilities.

“In the days before Instagram, news didn’t get around so fast,” she said.

She also noted the U.S. had over-confidently underestimated Canada in the conflict, a fact that was brought home with clarity when Canadian-based soldiers marched on Wash-ington and burned down the White House.

Platt recalled heroic figures that emerged on both sides, including Isaac Brock and Laura Secord for Canada, and Andrew Jack-son and Tecumseh for the U.S.

And she quoted Canadian historian Pierre Berton’s comment that as soon as hostilities ceased, “it was as if no war had been fought, or, if it was, it had been fought for no reason.”

Hill said that “since the dust-up 200 years ago, things have gone remarkably well…(we’re) the strongest of commercial trading partners, with co-operation of all kinds, and in the military sphere as well.”

Following Friday’s event, Alexander said she was pleased with the co-operation she had received from all the consulates.

While the turnout was relatively small, she had been pleasantly surprised by the hundreds who attended a Christmas Eve cel-ebration to mark the actual date of the treaty.

Homicide teams are investigat-ing the death of a three-year-old Cloverdale girl last week.

It’s a fatality the parents are call-ing a complete accident.

On Wednesday, Feb. 11, Surrey RCMP was called to a home in the 5800-block of 182 Street and rushed the girl to hospital with undisclosed injuries.

It was there she succumbed to her injuries.

The death was classified as suspicious and the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team

(IHIT) took the lead in the case.The girl’s mother, Jennifer

Johanson, and stepfather, Cody Graham, told CTV News the death of Charlee was “100 per cent accidental.”

Graham said Charlee was too small to reach the bathroom sink, so she stood on a small plastic bin. She jumped down, slipped and smacked her head.

She seemed fine that day, but had a “horrible seizure” the next day.

The full interview can be found here: http://bc.ctvnews.ca/video?clipId=552158

Sgt. Stephanie Ashton, media-relations officer for IHIT, said “any time we investigate a suspi-cious death we treat it very seri-ously. We ask that the public keep in mind a child has died and her family is now dealing with that death.”

Anyone who may have infor-mation is asked to call the IHIT tipline at 1-877-551-4448 or email at [email protected]

If you wish to remain anony-mous, provide your information on the web to Crime Stoppers at solvecrime.ca or by phone at 1-800-222-8477.

Mother, stepfather say child accidentally fell

Toddler death ‘suspicious’

Attack ‘targeted’

Fonyostabbed at homeKevin DIakiwBlack Press

Steve Fonyo was stabbed and taken to hospital after a home invasion last week.

On Friday, Feb. 13 at 5 a.m., three people wearing dark clothing broke down the door of Fonyo’s home in the 11000-block of 136 Street.

Fonyo, 49, suffered a stab wound to the back and was taken to Royal Columbian Hospital in critical but stable condition.

He remains in hospital.

Surrey RCMP said the stabbing was a targeted incident and they are currently looking for the three individuals believed to be involved in the attack.

Fonyo, a cancer survivor who lost his leg to the disease when he was 12, was 19 when he completed a 14-month run across Canada – finishing the one-legged run of fellow amputee, Terry Fox, who had been forced to abandon the Marathon of Hope four years earlier.

During his run, Fonyo raised $16 million for cancer research.

Fonyo was named an Officer of the Order of Canada in 1985. Two decades later, he was stripped of the honour after he amassed several criminal convictions, including assault, forgery and drunk driving.

He has also struggled with an addiction to cocaine.

Want the Real Beauty Benefits of Collagen?

Generate It. Don’t Eat It!

By now you know. Adding body collagen dir-ectly reduces wrinkles, increases skin elas-ticity, and adds vital moisture to your skin. Indirectly, collagen thickens and strengthens your hair. You may also know that collagen production slows by 1% per year after the age of 21. Can you gain it back? Yes. But not by eating collagen. You see, collagen is a pro-tein. When you ingest it, your body breaks it down, like any other protein, and uses it as food. When you want the real beauty bene-fits of collagen, you have to generate it.

BioSil™ generates collagen by activating the collagen producing cells in your body known as fibroblasts. It is clinically proven to in-crease collagen formation. In fact, in the clin-ical trial the women taking BioSil™ reduced wrinkles by 30%, increased skin elasticity by 89% and thickened and strengthened their hair by 13% compared to women not taking BioSil™. So when you want genu-ine visible results from collagen, gen-erate it, don’t eat it. Experience the beautiful difference for yourself!

Dr. Marita Schauch, BSc NDdebunks myths about collagen “creams,” beauty industry promises and plastic surgery to show you how and why building and generating collagen is an essential component to true health and beauty in her newest book Collagen Myths & Misconceptions.

Jordan Bateman is leading the “no” side in the referendum proposing adding 0.5 per cent to the provincial sales tax to pay for

new transit projects in Metro Vancouver.He has insisted all along that the referendum

is really a prime opportunity to send a message to TransLink. That message is, in his view, that it needs to deal with issues more transparently, pro- actively and cost-efficiently before it is entitled to one more cent of taxpayers’ money.

His opponents, the Better Transit and Transportation Coalition, and the Mayors’ Council (except for three mayors who oppose the sales tax idea), state that the referendum has nothing to do with TransLink. They say it is about securing a source of funding to build new projects which, they admit, will be managed and operated by TransLink.

Bateman’s message is clearly resonating. TransLink’s secretive board has voted to

remove Ian Jarvis from the CEO position, although he will continue to collect his $468,000 annual salary until his contract expires in 2016 and will continue to advise TransLink.

Jarvis is being replaced temporarily by Doug Allen, who earlier worked in reorganizing BC Ferries. He will be paid $35,000 per month. Allen had been running InTransit BC, the private company that operates the Canada Line.

Even before the mayors decided on the sales tax increase as the best way to boost transit funding, it was obvious that TransLink’s record would be a big issue with voters. Bateman, who in his capacity as B.C. director of the Canadian Taxpayers’ Federation has revealed many of its blunders, had a nice, easy target.

It’s high time the BC Liberals admitted that giving a number of secretive, private boards authority over how to spend and raise tax dollars at TransLink and its various subsidiaries isn’t working. When the first act of the private TransLink board was to give directors handsome retainers, it was obvious that serving the public was low on the list of priorities.

Transit is an essential component of large urban areas. Much of what TransLink does works quite well. But mismanagement of SkyTrain breakdowns, the delayed release of Compass cards, transit police overtime costs and generous executive compensation have turned off a great number of hard-working taxpayers.

Sorry, TransLink, but your bumbling attempt to throw Jarvis under the bus (albeit with a wallet full of cash) isn’t going to bring them back on side.

Unconvincingarguments

VICTORIA – The annual ritual of declaring a crisis in health care is upon us, with the BC Liberal

government boasting that we have the best system in Canada, while the NDP and the BC Nurses’ Union try to portray it as the worst.

The BCNU is the last big public sector union still to settle in the latest round of contract talks. Feeding horror stories to the media is part of its strategy, and this time it was a patient at Abbotsford Hospital assigned a bed in a small shower room for a month due to chronic overcrowding. Hospital officials said his care wasn’t compromised.

We’ve seen it in Abbotsford, Surrey and elsewhere: a new hospital or expansion is built and is immediately overcrowded. We are reminded every winter that influenza season brings a wave of people into emergency, expecting treatment for a viral infection that in most cases can only run its course.

Many people still don’t understand what “the flu” is, beyond the notion that it sounds serious enough to tell the boss you won’t be in to work. And

as fewer doctors choose the endless demands of family practice, the expectation that all problems must be dealt with quickly and for free seems to

grow as inexorably as the health care budget.

An emergency physician of my acquaintance provided a typical scenario for night shift at the ER. Where once nights were quiet, now there are patients waiting for hours, around the clock.

Several are drunk, and one has urinated on the floor. Surveys show as many as half of ER visits are alcohol-related, from overdoses to fights, falls, car crashes and chronic conditions.

Into this chaos comes a mother with her young child, who has nasal and chest congestion.

The child’s cough led her to throw up, so off to ER they went, blithely assuming that this is where you bring a kid with a cold.

This week’s B.C. budget brings us a step closer to the moment when half of all provincial revenues go to keep the health-care system running.

In the legislature, NDP health critic Judy Darcy blasted Health Minister Terry Lake for the government’s

failure to keep its 2010 promise to find everyone in B.C. a family doctor.

Lake allowed they’re still working on that, and then plugged the latest Conference Board of Canada study showing B.C. ranks third in the world in health care outcomes, second only to Switzerland and Sweden.

Darcy, a former president of the Hospital Employees’ Union, was quick to respond: “This is surely a first in question period, the Minister of Health going back to the record of the NDP government in the 1990s, because we’ve had the best health outcomes in Canada since 1993.

The fact is that we exercise more, we smoke less and we drink less, and that’s to the credit of British Columbians.”

We also have more elderly people, as Premier Christy Clark argued in 2011 when the federal government changed its financing formula.

After years of increasing transfers by six per cent per year, the late federal finance minister Jim Flaherty announced that starting in 2014, increases would be tied to economic growth, but wouldn’t fall below three per cent.

This of course was treated as a cut, rather than continued increases above inflation. But there it is, and all provinces have to deal with it.

Darcy is quite right that personal responsibility is the key, something to remember as the usual squabbling of special interests continues.

quote of note

lettersPeace Arch NewsPeace Arch News

Clearing the air appreciatedEditor:Re: Can’t stop global warming, Feb. 10 column.

Dr. Roy Strang’s article is an excellent and concise statement of why the highly politicized activism around CAGW (Catastrophic Anthropogenic Global Warming) should not be confused with science.

We have land-based temperature records going back 150 years, but changes in the number of sites, individual siting, measurement methodology, time-of-day observation and many other variables make that data subject to great uncertainties. Much more reliable satellite-temperature measurements only go back to 1979.

Sea temperatures have only been consistently measured since 2005, with the deployment of hundreds of Argo floats that periodically measure temperatures at depths up to 2,000 feet. Prior to that, it was buckets of water pulled up from passing ships, which was both inaccurate and measuring only surface temperatures.

Of course, we have no temperature records from the medieval and Roman warm periods, but there are peer-reviewed studies that prove those times were warmer than today. A calculation of the dates that cherry trees bloomed, taken from diaries of members of the Japanese Imperial Court, shows that the 12th century was about 0.5 degrees Celsius warmer than today.

One should also remember that your average temperature variation during the course of a single day is several times larger than the predicated variation from global warming over the next 50 years.Ed Beauregard, Surrey

Bravo, Dr. Strang, and thank you for your very reasoned, thoughtful and sensible comments about global warming.

Your final paragraph sums it up neatly.Elaine Godwin, Surrey

Dr. Roy Strang, in his always-effective manner, has put paid to the foolishness of today’s global-warming alarmists.

I’ve never understood how

normally intelligent people become unhinged over an essential gas like CO2, which amounts to only .04 per cent of the atmosphere by volume. Common sense tells us that this trace gas will not cause enormous man-made climate damage.

Dr. Strang has done his history and reviewed his science – warm periods, cold periods, solar activity, orbital changes, earth-axis tilting and precession – demonstrating the complex influences on our climate.

Single-dimensional belief in CO2 as the driver of climate change rivals flat-earth beliefs.

Man-made global warming/climate change/carbon footprint/carbon pollution – whatever the flavour of the day – was a strictly political construct from the get-go. Recent debate over export-oil pipelines

reveals the goal of authoritarian leftists – the bulk of our climate alarmists – to be the shutdown of Alberta’s Oil Sands Industry.

This has always been the goal – destruction of industrial capitalism that has provided us with the highest standard of living in history.

True pollution is, and has been, addressed by technology developed by industrial capitalism. CO2 is not a pollutant.Francis Patrick Jordan, White Rock

Dr. Roy Strang’s column deserves a cacophony of cheers for disclosing (!) that the Earth’s climate has been changing for thousands of years and has embraced both extended warm and cool periods. This contradicts the current belief of so many, that climate change is

a recent phenomenon. Consider my own professional affiliation: the Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists of BC (APEGBC).

Last year, APEGBC put out no less than a position paper stating that “the association recognizes that the climate is changing”; clearly as insightful an observation as recognizing that night follows day.

Actually, climate change is recent just by its recent conspiratorial use as preferred terminology. “Conspiratorial”? Yep! Study the Climategate emails and note the discussion and mutual exhortation to use the term instead of ‘global warming’ because ‘climate change’ is much more versatile as to what events can be blamed on it.David Poole, Surrey

Tracy Holmes photoWhite Rock’s water – from both its seaside and aquifer – could be a source of revenue, suggests a letter writer.

Editor:This letter is to inspire all those who love to live in

this quaint little city of ours by the sea.Over the past few years, it has dawned on me that the

world’s lack of pride and creativity is starting to catch up with us, and White Rock is no exception.

As money is worth less than ever these days, our city always appears to be cash-strapped and looking for ways to generate income (parking tickets and cottages just aren’t cutting it anymore), so we are building upwards to increase density for a larger tax base.

Another thing the City of White Rock may consider, is going into business for itself to help fund projects:

1) White Rock Salt Factory – salt water borders 25 per cent of our city, and residents and tourists alike would love to buy salt made by the city; and/or2) White Rock Water Co. – if our aquifer’s recharge rate allows for it, bottle it and sell it.The final idea is for White Rock to have a small technical school/university to offer specialized training that would be sought out by students internationally.

The spin-off for the above ideas, of course, would equate to more revenue to help maintain the City of White Rock’s infrastructure and services, while at the same time enhancing our city culturally.Claude Cartelier, White Rock

perspectives…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula

Sarah Massah Staff Reporter

A pair of Semiahmoo Secondary students have used their experience of

coming to Canada to help shape an ESL program for fellow youth.

Angel Chu and Rika Sugimoto, born in Taiwan and Japan, respectively, began the English Learner’s Club last year.

The free program, developed and implemented by the two Grade 12 girls, was held on Monday evenings at White Rock Library from November to December.

The decision to start the program came after Sugimoto, 18, learned that unlike Surrey Library’s Reading Buddies, White Rock did not have a reading club of its own.

After discussing the idea with Chu, both agreed there was more need for an ESL program.

“We decided to help them with oral and listening skills, rather than reading skills,” Chu, 18, said, noting they hope to repeat the program next fall if their post-secondary schedules allow.

The program, which also fit into the teens’ International Baccalaureate curriculum, focused on interaction between participants in order to better learn the language, Sugimoto said.

“In the beginning, they were nervous, but after a couple of sessions, they were so engaged. Having a small group worked well,” Sugimoto said. “Also focused a lot on encouraging each other.”

Chu noted that the program – dubbed Stage English – was unique in that it required participants to stand for the entire class.

“To maintain their focus, so they’re moving around and staying active, instead of dozing off,” she said.

The duo started with pronunciation practice, then moved on to scenarios.

“We made it so that we would teach the first person, then he or she would teach the next person – like a chain,” Chu said. “Teaching is the best way to learn.”

In order to get the word out about the program, Chu and Sugimoto put ads in local newspapers and through orientation nights at the school for the IB program.

By the time the first class began,

there were six participants.The multilingual students set a

theme for each week that would focus on subjects like encouragement and mannerisms.

“We’re thinking of how to integrate them into the community,” Chu said, noting that she drew upon her past

experience as an ESL student. “When I was here, I wanted to

have the opportunity to practise my speaking and listening skills. I think that’s the confidence barrier.

“I know people say it’s the language barrier that is preventing them from integrating fully into society, so I feel like it’s the confidence that will get that going.”

The participation in the class was a boost of confidence for the two students as well. Sugimoto noted that despite she and Chu not having formal training to teach an ESL course, the

participants were not deterred.Chu recalled one student – a

young boy – who, at first, was unwilling to participate despite his mother’s urging. By the middle of the class, he was in the very front, raising his hand to answer questions.

“Even though we’re just high school students, it was great that the students and parents participated,” Sugimoto said.

“I was really happy for those people who helped us develop this project as we went along.”

Ultherapy delivers low levels of focused heat to just the right depth below the skin to target the deep tissues. The surface of the skin remains undisturbed but the controlled injury to the deeper layers triggers a healing response in the skin. The skin contracts and tightens immediately and, like other skin tightening procedures, Ultherapy simulates the growth of new collagen, but DEEPER than ever before!

A smooth applicator (placed on the skin) projects an image onto the screen that allows us to see and plan where to direct the energy. We deliver energy to two depths during a single treatment. One pass penetrates 3 mm in depth which is as deep as you can go and still be in the dermis. Another pass over the treatment area penetrates 4.5 mm into the superfi cial muscular apo-neurotic system (the SMAS layer).

The SMAS is the layer of muscles targeted during surgical forehead, face and neck

lifts. An Ultherapy™ treatment is non-surgical and cannot deliver the results of a surgical facelift. For people who are not ready for a facelift or just don’t want to have surgery, however, it is a non-invasive alternative that requires just a single treatment. Ultherapy can also be used to further enhance results of a surgical facelift.

Your body's response to this energy is to recondition tired skin by stimulating the growth of fresh, new collagen. The result is a tightening and gradual lifting—or shifting—of the skin back into a more youthful position and form-fi tting shape. Un-like lasers, which penetrate the skin from the outside-in, the Ultherapy®procedure bypasses the surface of the skin, specifi cally targeting the deep, structural skin tissues where collagen lives. Using ultrasound technology, Ultherapy actually works from the inside-out to lift and tighten skin non-invasively.

Matthew HoekstraBlack Press

A growing gap between rich and poor, a continued economic recession and many natural disasters

are all in store this lunar year, suggests Lower Mainland fortune teller Sherman Tai.

“Th e Year of the Goat is a year of obstacles and extremes, with a lot of

disturbances,” the Richmond man said. “Th ere tends to be a lot of disagreements and gossip between people with a lot of traps and people with twisted values.”Th e Year of the Goat—the eighth sign in the Chinese zodiac, also interpreted as a sheep or ram—starts Feb. 19. Celebrations across Metro Vancouver include countdown events, lion-dance shows, fairs and feasts. But for Tai, he’ll be busy looking into the future.

Th is year marks the 26th time the fortune teller and feng shui master

is making predictions for Asia and North America.

In China, he says, the rich will get richer, the poor will get poorer. In the

U.S., government will attempt to stabilize the economy through patchwork, resulting in

gains for large corporations, but nothing for the lower and middle classes. Consumer confi dence will continue to decline.

Canada, he suggests, will be directly aff ected by the declining U.S. economy. Yet it will fare better due to a relatively conservative economic policy. Interest rates, he suggests, will be stable and low for most of the year. Th e winter could bring a quarter per cent increase.Th e year will bring stability in Canada’s government, but reduced immigration, along with Chinese returning to their home country, will continue to weaken the Chinese market.A decline in real estate values can also be expected, Tai predicts. In areas of B.C. with a large Chinese population—mainly Richmond and Vancouver westside—the drop could be as much as fi ve per cent.Th ere will be fewer natural disasters than in the past, but climate will continue to “fl uctuate at extremes.” “Water fi re and traffi c accidents tend to be more prevalent.”

In addition to economic and political predictions, Tai also has advice for daily living in 2015.

“People should pay attention to hygiene and health care. In addition, people at work, both superior and junior, should try their best to create a peaceful

environment for their own good.”Personal safety also needs attention, he said, predicting an increase in organized gang shootings, youth violence, homicide and home invasions.Th e Chinese zodiac has a cycle of 12 years, each linked with a diff erent animal. Th e most popular zodiac sign is the dragon, followed by the horse, according to Tai. “Th at’s why people would like to have their baby before the sheep (or goat), especially so Chinese-Canadians,” said Tai, noting the persistence of superstitions. “It’s not a bad year for people born in the Year of the Goat. However, this is not a very peaceful year.”Famous inventors Th omas Edison and Steve Jobs were goats, said to be known for creativity and perseverance.“Th ey have courage,” said Tai. “Th ey can create a lot of positive things.”Th ey can also be stubborn and puzzling. Take the late Empress Cixi of the Qing Dynasty in China, also a goat, who has been blamed for the dynasty’s fall by putting her own interests ahead of her nation’s.But goats are also caring—people who look aft er elderly parents, for example—who reward good behaviour.“If you do some good things for them, they will return (the favour),” said Tai.Th is year Tai will be at the River Rock Casino Resort on the evenings of Feb. 18 to 22.

• Years of the Goat: 1919, 1931, 1943, 1955, 1967, 1979, 1991, 2003, 2015.

• Th e goat is regarded as an auspicious animal. Legend has it that when considering animals to be represented in the Chinese horoscope, the Jade Emperor had in mind only the ox, dragon and deer. Th e goat was included aft er it impressed him with its magnifi cent horns, healthy body and ability to run and jump in the most graceful manner.

• Th e goat is known to be extremely patient, persevering and adaptable. People born under the goat year are refi ned, loyal and introverted. Th ey also have extraordinary inner strength. Besides being diplomatic, they are attentive and considerate towards each other.

• Th ose born in the goat year are unwilling to job-hop or change their way of life easily—one reason they usually shine in whatever job they undertake. Money prospects are average in youth, but things look up in middle age, when they could even become millionaires. Well-suited for careers in music, dancing, writing and hair design.

• Th ey look for stability in a relationship and have a deep commitment to family. Females born under the Goat sign make good wives and mothers. Males make good husbands, but tend to be chauvinistic and expect a lot from their wives.

For nearly 78 years, the South Surrey & White Rock Chamber of Commerce has been dedicated to promoting local business, economic growth in the community and tourism on the Semiahmoo Peninsula.

The chamber has always focused on supporting economic and social well-being, making the area a prosperous and favourable place to do business.

What started as a small board of trade with 35 members on May 17, 1937, has become a community staple with more than 700 members, comprising businesses, professionals, community organizations and residents. With so many members, the chamber is able to provide access, support and marketing opportunities to help its members’ businesses expand and create partnerships that benefit individuals and the community alike.

One of the biggest benefits to becoming a

member of the chamber is the opportunity to network, especially at monthly business showcasing the group’s events.

Having a network of influential voices makes facing challenges that come with business easier to navigate. Advertising and marketing opportunities, including business listings in the chamber’s various directories, event sponsorship and brochure placement are another important part of the chamber’s mandate to promote its members.

Being part of a network that comprises hundreds of businesses also means referrals – a crucial aspect to any business, new or old. Every year, the chamber fields thousands of inquiries about businesses, services, programs, accommodation and attractions in the community.

A second-to-none group-health plan – including medical, dental, disability and extended benefits – is another plus.

The chamber also initiates many programs and events, including the Business Excellence Awards – held this year on Jan. 29 at Hazelmere Golf and Tennis Club – and Taste of the Peninsula. The Spirit of the Sea Festival, the regatta and an annual golf tournament for local charities are among many other ways the chamber helps promote the community as a cultural hub, attracting visitors from all over the Lower Mainland while showcasing the best the Peninsula has to offer.

The chamber is constantly looking to the future as the business community on the Peninsula evolves and expands.

Within the last few years, the chamber has become a part of the B.C. Chamber of Commerce, adding more support and network opportunities to its members.

The chamber is also a member of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce –

Canada’s largest and most-influential business association.

With a network of more than 300 chambers of commerce nation-wide, representing 175,000 businesses of all sizes in all sectors, the Canadian Chamber of Commerce is a vital link between business and the federal government.

The chamber also offers its members a variety of benefit programs, including discounts at various gas stations and the M2M Advantage Program, a member-to-member discount card which allows businesses to offer discounts and/or incentives to fellow chamber members and their employees.

The South Surrey & White Rock Chamber of Commerce is located at 22-1480 Foster St. Hours are 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., Monday to Friday.

Nick GreenizanSports Reporter

The Semiahmoo Totems senior boys basketball team is headed into Fraser Valley Championships on a high this week, after taking down the reigning division champs on the weekend.

Last weekend, Semiahmoo won the Fraser Valley South division

crown after a convincing 97-62 win over the Tamanawis Wildcats, who last year became the first Surrey public school in 33 years to win a Fraser Valley title.

With the win, the Totems will enter the Fraser Valley tournament as the No. 6 seed, and have earned a first-round bye – a first for the program under coach Ed Lefurgy.

Last year, Semi was an 11th seed in the regional tourney.

“We’ve got the bye, which is really huge for us,” Lefurgy said. “Now if we win two more games, we go to provincials.”

On Friday, Semiahmoo will play its first game, against the winner of a first-round matchup between Surrey’s Queen Elizabeth Secondary

and Abbotsford’s W.J. Mouat. Semiahmoo has not faced Queen

Elizabeth yet this season, but did beat Mouat earlier in the year.

Semiahmoo has been playing well all season, but Lefurgy said his troops have upped their game even further since a road trip to Vancouver Island in late January, where they played three exhibition

games – against Cowichan, St. Michael’s and G.P. Vanier.

“Ever since that trip, the team has just been playing great. The guys are a very close-knit group, and they’ve really started to gel now,” he said.

The key to their recent success – including the win over the Wildcats

Semiahmoo senior boys just two wins away from spot at basketball provincials

The Falcons also won in the atom Tier 1 and bantam Tier 2 categories.

For members of the Surrey Eagles, there wasn’t much to love about Valentine’s Day, as the team lost a 3-2 heartbreaker on the road against the Chilliwack Chiefs.

The loss was the second in a row for the Eagles against their division rivals; Friday night at South Surrey Arena, the Chiefs stomped the Eagles 8-1.

While Friday’s game was something of a blowout, Saturday’s was a much closer affair, with the two teams tied until late in the third period, when Chilliwack’s Craig Putter fired one past Surrey netminder Christian Short who was nearly unbeatable otherwise.

Short stopped 44 of 47 Chiefs’ shots in the loss, earning first-star honours.

Eagles’ defenceman Latrell Charleson opened the scoring with a power-play goal in the first period, but the Chiefs responded with a pair themselves.

The lead lasted less than five minutes, how-ever, as Cole Plotnikoff tied the game for Sur-rey before the period ended.

In the game’s waning minutes, the only other fireworks came when Charleson – who was chasing a puck into the corner – got his arms up near the boards, and made contact with an official, who was shoved from behind.

Charleson was given a game misconduct, and while the incident will no doubt be reviewed by the league, the general consensus was that there was no malicious intent.

Charleson apologized to the referee, and then took to social media to explain himself.

“It was not intentional and I meant in no way to hurt the ref,” he wrote Sunday on Twit-ter. “After the game I apologized to the ref and we shook hands. All ended well.”

– has been a much-improved defence, Lefurgy noted.

“Our defensive intensity is just much better – it has been since the Island.”

As well, the play of shooting guard Curtis Harvey has helped spur the team’s offence to greater heights. Harvey lead the team with 35 points against Tamanawis,

and Lefurgy said “he’s just been playing amazing.”

Friday’s contest against the yet-to-be-determined opponent is scheduled to be played at Holy Cross School at 6 p.m. If the Totems are able to advance past that game, they’ll play Monday night.

A win Monday, and they’ll be guaranteed one of the six Fraser

Valley berths at provincials. It’s been decades since a South Surrey public school qualified for the AAA ( now 4A) provincials.

“That would be huge – it would mean everything to us,” Lefurgy said about qualifying for the provincial tournament.

“But we can’t look that far ahead. First, we have to worry about Friday.”
