SURREY – Eighty-seven commercial fishermenhave been fined $200 or more each for dropping theirnets in protest against an aboriginal-only fishery onthe Fraser River back in August 2002.
Judge Michael Hicks presided over the masssentencing Monday in Surrey provincial court, afterall appeals were exhausted.
The accused – three women among them – werefined $200 each as first offenders, and $300 if theyhad a prior conviction for participating in similarprotests.
John Cummins, who recently retired from federalpolitics as Tory MP for Delta-Richmond East to leadthe provincial B.C. Conservative Party, was one of thefishermen hit with a $300 fine.
“These people that are charged today, in my view,are some of the finest Canadians that you’re going to
find anywhere and I’m really proud to be part of thatgroup, to be standing in that courtroom and face themusic with them,” Cummins said outside court.
“It’s government policy, it’s not legislation thatallows for this. I still think that it’s wrong and it canbe changed and it should be changed.”
Prime Minister Stephen Harper has subsequentlylaunched a judicial inquiry of the race-basedfishing policy. The inquiry is still underway withrecommendations expected to be released in October.
Nine years ago, Cummins’ boat was among roughly
200 vessels involved in three separate protests inAugust, 2002, held on the Fraser from StevestonHarbour to Barnston Island, after the Department ofFisheries and Oceans opened a commercial fishery onthe Lower Fraser for members of the Musqueam andTsawwassen First Nations, to the exclusion of otherCanadians. Those who fished in protest were charged,all told, with 132 counts under the Fisheries Act.
Phil Eidsvik, who ran unsuccessfully as a Tory MPcandidate in Newton-North Delta during the 2005election, was not among those convicted but served astheir representative in court Monday.
“The purpose of the protest was to bring ina constitutional challenge,” he said. “These arerespectable hard-working Canadians who just wantedto be treated fairly.”
Gary Sonnenberg, a 47-year-old gillnetter, was oneof those in court. Would he do it again?

Tom ZytarukSTAFF REPORTERtwitter@tomzytaruk
SURREY – The NorthDelta teen charged withfirst-degree murder in thebeating death of 15-year-oldLaura Szendrei will have hispreliminary hearing nextApril and May in Surreyprovincial court.
The hearing is set for 14days, to begin April 10. Hisnext court appearance isscheduled for Feb. 27, for apre-trial conference.
He remains in custody.The accused was 17 years
old when Szendrei was killed,so it is illegal to publishhis name under the YouthCriminal Justice Act.
Szendrei died in hospitalon Sept. 26, a day after shewas viciously beaten in broaddaylight while walking alonga path in the Mackie Parkforest, in the 8200-block of110th Street in North Delta.
The Crown plans to seekan adult sentence if theaccused is found guilty.
That would work out tolife without eligibility toapply for parole until 25years are served.

SURREY – It was her first campaign as acandidate and the experience has left her eager togo again.
After 20 years in the non-profit sector, SusanKeeping stepped down from her post as executivedirector of the Newton Advocacy Group Societyto run in the May 2 federal election and she likedit. A lot.
She ran on the NDP ticket in South Surrey-White Rock-Cloverdale, a riding held byConservatives of one stripe or another since1974. Keeping has worked on campaigns before,but never as the name on the ballot.
She was up against Conservative incumbentRuss Hiebert who has held the seat since 2004.Some people say the riding is so staunchly andabidingly Conservative the party could run abroom and win, but there’s no denying Hiebert’swinning ways. He’s run four times and increasedhis share of the vote every time.
Tradition has seen a Conservative come outon top, followed in second place by a Liberal andwith the NDP candidate running a distant third.
Not this time.Keeping inherited an experienced campaign
crew; some members have been around for morethan a couple of elections. Keeping was a breathof fresh air.
“l had to get my team fired up,” she said. “I toldthem ‘I’m all the way, I’m in it to win.’ They kindof said, ‘Aren’t you cute,’ but I meant it.”
Keeping said she and her crew targetted peoplewho don’t usually vote and took advantage of theprovincial party leadership race to double theriding membership.
In what became a very negative campaignfeaturing dogged attacks on Hiebert from LiberalHardy Staub and Independent Aart Looye,Keeping took the high road.
“The most surprising thing to me was thedebates and the candidates’ performance, thethings they said. It got pretty rough sometimes.”
In her mind, the candidates could competewith one another, disagree strongly, but stillremain civil.
Keeping decided to focus on issues, to work atgetting her party’s message out to the voters andto leave the rough stuff to others and it paid off.
When the dust settled on election night,
Keeping’s strong finishwhets political appetite
NEWSPeople
Keeping finished in second spot behind Hiebertwith a little over 20 per cent of the vote, theNDP’s strongest finish in the riding in years.
Keeping knows the spike in popularity of theNDP and leader Jack Layton helped, but alsothinks she played a part in her strong finish.
That’s just whet her appetite for more. Keepingsaid the Surrey Civic Coalition was interested in
having her on their municipal slate in November,but she’s got her eye on bigger fish.
“I think (Surrey Mayor) Dianne Watts is doinga good job, so I don’t see doing much there. I’mgoing to put my name up provincially. I’d bewilling to run in my riding (Surrey-White Rock),but that’s up to the party to decide.”

SURREY – The family of Surrey murdervictim Christopher Roy Whitmee is marking thesecond anniversary of his slaying by offering a$10,000 reward for information leading to theconviction of his killer.
Whitmee, 34, was shot dead at the LegacyShow Lounge in Cloverdale on the night of May16, 2009.
Police do not believe he was the intendedtarget. On Saturday, his 11-year-old daughterLexus Burkholder-Whitmee and her momHeather Burkholder began posting flyers in theirrenewed campaign.
“Our goal is that someone sees the flyer and itrefreshes a memory from that terrible incidenttwo years ago and then reports it to police,”Heather Burkholder said.
Police believe the shooting may have beenlinked to drugs and gangs.
Cpl. Dale Carr, spokesman for the IntegratedHomicide Investigation Team, added that theythink they know who the shooter was trying to
hit but won’t release the name.Whitmee was in the lounge at about 11 p.m.
when he was shot. A man in his early 20s thenran out through a rear door and into an alley.Minutes later, there was a hit-and-run crash atHighway 10 and 176th Street that police suspectmight be connected to the shooting. They arelooking for witnesses to both the shooting andsubsequent collision.
“We are hopeful that someone that fled fromthe show lounge has had a change of heart and isnow ready to come forward to tell us what theysaw,” Carr said.
“You never know, it may be the piece that putsit all together.
“Often times people don’t approach policein the first instance after a serious crime likehomicide,” Carr noted. “We have experiencedthat when we make a plea to the public it triggerssomething that causes people to have a change ofheart and they decide to come forward to police.”
Anyone with information is asked to callthe IHIT tip line at 1-877-551-IHIT or CrimeStoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS.

Politics
Some idle musings,informed speculation andcomplete guesswork as
the political scene takes a bit ofa breather after two leadershipraces, one election and one bigby-election:
• They are both glass-half-full types, I guess: PremierChristy Clark and NDP leaderAdrian Dix were crowing withglee after last week’s by-electionresult. Clark won, of course,by a fairly narrow margin andbecame the first governmentcandidate to win a by-electionin 30 years.
But I suspect she wasn’texpecting such a close resultwhen she initially set the by-election date, and I can tell youthere was a lot of nervousnessat her campaign headquartersas the votes were beingcounted. Dix, on the otherhand, insisted the NDP hadscored a “great victory” eventhough its candidate, DavidEby, had lost. If anything, bothpolitical leaders took homethe prize for best “spinning”attempts for the week.
• The premier may want tocalm down her itchy triggerfinger when it comes to callinga general election. I’m not sure
her party is really prepared tofight another election so soonafter the last one. She saysshe’s looking at the fall for avote, but her party’s financesneed shoring up (which willundoubtedly occur over time asthe business community viewsDix with considerable alarm)and she presumably needsmore time to find credible,attractive candidates.
The NDP is in the sameboat, which may factor into hertiming, but if the polls don’tindicate a solid, substantial leadfor her party an early electionmay backfire on her.
• Another piece of advice forthe new premier: spend moretime actually being the premierbefore expecting the electorateto endorse you come electiontime. Clark earned publicity fordoing such things as workingas a waitress in diner, and goingon a ride-along with somecops, but people are lookingfor statesmanlike qualities in apremier as much as a penchantfor the “common touch.”
• Are our Crowncorporations about to bereined back under moregovernment control? Already,the government has announceda review of B.C. Hydro’s plan toincrease its rates by more than30 per cent, and now ICBC’sidea of linking insurance ratesto a single speeding tickethas been deep-sixed by thegovernment. But the fact that
both corporations were ableto get so far along a path thatwould potentially reach deepinto many peoples’ pocketsmakes one wonder what else islurking out there, away fromthe prying eyes of cabinet. Nexton the list: B.C. Ferries and thesize of its government subsidy(which directly affects ferryfares).
• Will the businesscommunity, much of whichfavours the HST, finally getinvolved in a major campaignto save the tax? Companiesthat find the tax works to theirbenefit should be explainingthat fact to its employees andencouraging them to vote forit. So far, I haven’t seen muchevidence of that happening.
• The legislative session willend soon – in early June – andso far, it hasn’t exactly createdsparks or much energy. TheNDP hasn’t really done muchin question period, which hasbecome on most days a shoutfest over the HST and notmuch else. Maybe the party issaving its ammo for when thenew premier finally takes herseat.
• Did new B.C. ConservativeParty leader John Cumminsdoom his party’s future withhis dumb comments on howpeople “choose” to be straightor gay?
They made him look like thestereotyped right-wing fringepolitician, the kind that hasensured that party remained
completely marginalized in thepast. I’m not sure he can fullyrecover from that gaffe, whichwould be very good news forthe B.C. Liberals, who can’tafford any vote-splitting on thepolitical right.
• On the federal scene, itwill be worth watching to see ifnew NDP Opposition begins tokowtow to Quebec’s interests
on some issues (such as seatdistribution) potentially at theexpense of B.C.’s interests (theparty was once dominated andinfluenced by the West, butnow more than half its federalcaucus comes from Quebec).

The Editor,Re: “At-risk students fight to
keep their ‘second home,’” theNow, May 10.
Just when I think we aremoving forward to providehelp for youth, somethinghappens to remind me we havea long way to go.
The announcement ofthe closure of the SeaquamAlternate School programfrustrates me. Actually, I was upat 4 a.m. thinking about it.
This is not right.May 7 was National Child
and Youth Mental Health Dayand I attended a conferencewhere youth, families andprofessionals worked ondefining outcomes withinschools, communities andwithin the medical system thatare meaningful to familiesdealing with mental healthchallenges. I was privilegedto meet several studentsfrom an alternate secondaryschool program within theSurrey school district at thisconference.
The difference between whatan alternate school programis able to do and what themainstream school system isable to provide is immense.
The students spoke ofacceptance, trust, flexibilityand success. These youth wereso positive and excited aboutattending school now butcould not say the same thingabout their experiences withmainstream school.
Mainstream school issometimes not able toaccommodate students withmental health challenges and itis a shame we, as a society, arenot ready or able to make thechanges necessary to amend thesystem to accommodate everystudent. That is why alternateschools exist. Without SeaquamAlternate, where are thesestudents going to go? Where arethey going to receive the typeof education that they need anddeserve?
The students I met statedthey probably would havedropped out of school hadit not been for the alternateschool. Where does that leavethe students of SeaquamAlternate?
As a parent of a child withmany mental health challenges,I see this type of school as apossible option for our son inthe future. Our son requires adifferent environment to learn.He requires flexibility in hisroutine, the ability to start andstop at his own pace. He needs
breaks and space and supportthat differs greatly from theother students in the room.
Knowing that the type ofschool he could need wassuccessful for the youth I metgave me hope that our soncould have a different place tolearn if he needs it.
If programs such as SeaquamAlternate are shut down, whathope does that leave my sonand other students like him? Isthe option conform or quit?
It is my hope that the DeltaSchool District is able to takeanother look at their decisionand reinstate the Seaquamalternate program. It does notfix the bigger issues the schoolsystem faces, but it is a step inthe right direction.

Sandhu sendswrong messageThe Editor,
Each and every timeHarvinder Sandhu’s columnappears, there is a lot ofnegative reaction to it.
I understand that it makessense to want to have an Indo-Canadian opinion in yourpaper, but as an Indo-Canadianmyself, I find her columns to beappalling.
Although I agree that it’sa good idea to have a diverserange of articles in the paper,I don’t want to read a piecethat constantly prefers toseparate people instead ofbringing them together, onethat suggests that one culture isbetter than another.
Look, I love my Punjabiculture but I also love Canada.I was born and raised hereand I respect all cultures. ButI don’t respect that Sandhu isgiving us Indo-Canadians a badreputation and a bad name. Wedon’t need that.
There should be columnscelebrating cultures of all kindswith respect as the base, unityin the lines and love as themessage.
My Punjabi culture is richand beautiful but so are allthe other cultures. We all havesomething positive to give.
I don’t want to read anarticle where malicious pride isthe intent behind it.
But more so than that, Ihope people don’t fall for themessages she sends.

Let our kidsjust be kidsThe Editor,
Re: “When a boy doesn’t looklike a boy,” the Now, May 11.
It’s amazing how muchSurrey’s and B.C.’s mentalityhas changed over the past fiveyears.
In the West Coast magazine,May edition, there is a full page
ad to promote: “Two Moms.Two Babies. One Family.”
Many flyers, newspapers andother magazines also promotethe gay and lesbian lifestyle.
Not only that, but manychildren’s movies are prettywild. In Cats and Dogs, childrenlearn that cat terrorist areplanning to take over the world.In Dawn of the Dinosaurs theylearn that the end is near,and in Ella Enchanted theylearn how to take care of theircharming prince.
I read in the Now that atSurrey’s Kwantlen campus,students can buy rolling papersat the student association desk,in order to help them with their“higher” education.
So it won’t be long beforestudents can obtain them inschools too – to help them withthe stress of life because toomany parents want children,but want the state to take careof them.
It seems as if there is a racegoing on to make childrenmore violent and turn theminto sex models and drugaddicts, not because it’s natural,but due to the pushing andfunding of the movers andshakers behind the screen andSurrey seems to have a lot ofthose.

Some electionchange neededThe Editor,
A number of columns andletters have supported politicalreform in Canada.
One change that should beobvious to any who have readyour newspaper of May 3 ishow MPs are elected.
The winner of the Newton-North Delta riding won with33.4 per cent of the vote. Thetop three candidates werewithin 2.1 per cent, less than1,000 votes.
The fourth-place candidatehad over 1,500 votes. Thus, onethird of the people who showedup to vote selected the winner.
Perhaps the electedcandidate represented themajority will of the ridingelectorate, perhaps not. Of thefour elections in Surrey, threewinners got below 50 per centof the vote.
The only way to serve thewill of the people is to holdrunoffs between the top twocandidates.
Otherwise, multiple partiesrepresenting a generallycommon philosophy can onlyinjure the goals they seek toadvance.

SURREY – When is the last time you steppedfoot in a store that rents movies?
It’s probably been a while, given all the digitalalternatives for seeing the latest flicks. Not onlythat, the doors of long-established stores thatrent movies are closing at an alarming rate,leaving fewer options for customers.
Three or four years ago, for example, therewere 11 stores on the Semiahmoo Peninsula thatrented movies, and now there are four – andsoon there’ll be two or three.
In the Ocean Park area, Pacific DVD & Videois currently in shutdown mode after nearly 29years of business at the corner of 16th Avenueand 128th Street.
The doors will remain open until mid-June,and then that’s it for Mike Gammon’s threedecades in the movie-rental biz.
He just can’t justify keeping the doors openany longer.
“It’s not losing money, but it’s not reallymaking money either,” Gammon said. “It’s notsomething where I’d want to sign another five-year lease. That’s the issue.”
When word spread about the pending closureof Pacific DVD & Video, longtime customersbecame emotional upon hearing the news. Kidsin the area even set up a lemonade stand andoffered to donate sale proceeds to keep the storeopen.
“For a lot of people, it’s a community socialcentre kind of thing, you know,” Gammon said.“They stop by and chat, and Sue, she knows themall.”
Suzanne Pederson has worked at the store for13 years.
“Some parents are really upset, like this is theonly store their kids have known,” Pederson said.“Kids come in here now, they’re 20 years old, andI remember when they were seven and rentingthe kiddie movies.”
For movie-rental stores, competition iscoming from several angles. With a digital-TVbox, people can now rent a movie the same dayit’s released on DVD.
“There used to be a 90-day window for that,”Gammon said.
Also taking pieces of the pie are services suchas web-based Netflix and illegal downloads ofmovies, plus rental kiosks at grocery stores.
“A store like this is still the preferred optionfor a lot of people, but there are so many otheroptions now that we do only 60 or 70 per cent
of what we used to do, and the overhead doesn’tchange.... This business would be viable if youcould find a place with cheap rent, but aroundhere, that doesn’t exist.”
People still love movies and games, but theywant them anytime, anyplace and on differentplatforms. The people who run Rogers Plus
stores have figured that out, and are closing someof the stores accordingly.
“It’s all about options and we are giving themto (customers),” Sara Holland, Rogers’ seniorcommunications manager, told the Now.
“Our retail stores are a powerful distributionnetwork for us and we are evolving the retail
experience as our customers’ needs change. Interms of our video stores, we are closing theones that aren’t profitable as their leases comeup and evolving others to entertainment andcommunications experience centres.”
This month, Blockbuster Canada was placedinto receivership by an Ontario court, with thefuture of the chain’s 400 stores very much inquestion.
Gammon began working to open his firstmovie-rental store in the fall of 1982, with VideoStop first doing business in Langley in April1983.
It was a bit of a slow start, with independentstore operators trying to figure out how to bestmake money renting VHS and BETA videotapes.
“I remember we had these great big RCAmachines, 25 of them in plastic suitcases,” hesaid. “You could rent one of those and twomovies for the weekend for something like 25bucks, and we’d be sold out of those before weopened the doors on Saturday.”
Those machines sold for around $500 – bigbucks in those days.
“We also sold the machines, at cost,” Gammonsaid, “because everybody who bought one hadan insatiable appetite for renting movies, sowe made a fortune off the people with the newVCRs.”
The heyday of the biz was in the late 1980sand early 1990s. As chain stores came into playand DVDs replaced VHS tapes, things beganchanging.
“When DVD took over,” Gammon said,“everything was for sale in the $25 range, asopposed to $80 to $100 for a VHS cassette of themovie. “Now, Walmart has the new release of theweek every Tuesday for $17 or so. Every one ofthose sales takes away a rental.”
Starting June 1, a final “blowout sale” atGammon’s store begins in earnest, with anyremaining stock either shipped to a store he runswith a partner in Langley (also due to close, inOctober) or sold at flea markets this fall. Thefinal day of operation for Pacific DVD & Video,which Gammon took over in 2002, is probablyJune 18, Ocean Park Day.
“It’s going to be a sad day, because this hasbeen a good store and we had pretty much thebest catalogue library around,” Gammon said ashe surveyed shelves that once held 20,000 titles in2,881 square feet of space.
A word-of-mouth sale has reduced thatnumber by around 8,000, with a whopping 2,300DVDs sold in the first day of the stock-reductioneffort earlier this month.
“The bones have been picked at pretty goodalready.”

SURREY – Up until three years ago, manyof the books in Lena Shaw Elementary school’slibrary were tattered and torn.
Worse, they were woefully out of date,admitted Lisa Baker, teacher-librarian at theWhalley area school.
Some of the “country” books, for example,used for social studies to teach students about thepeople and industries of other lands were missingmany of the world’s newly created countries andmuch of the information that was there was nolonger relevant or completely useless.
“Even this year I was weeding books from the’70s and ’80s,” Baker said.
Now students doing research for their lessonsor checking out books for the sheer joy ofreading have shiny new volumes to chose fromon the library shelves.
Baker was able to refurbish the school’s aginglibrary with a grant from the Indigo Love ofReading Foundation. The grant of $162,000enabled Baker to go on a book-buying spree.
“Over the last three years we’ve purchased over9,500 books,” she said.
Educators at high-needs schools across the
country are eligible to apply for a grant.The foundation allocates grants based on
school population, over three years, to helpsupport literacy programs and the purchase newbooks, with the goal of improving literacy rates.
Baker used a portion of the grant to establisha special library for the school’s Ready, Set Learnprogram, which is aimed at getting three-year-olds ready for school.
Funding for school libraries has been erodingover the years, but the Surrey school district,faced with a substantial budget shortfall last year,was forced to make drastic cuts.
“We here in Surrey took a really big hit lastyear with cutbacks,” she said.
Baker said when companies like Indigo step upto the plate, it makes a big difference.
Baker said the new library is contributing toa rise in literacy rates at the school. She tracksliteracy by the number of books borrowedduring the school year, and the book borrowingfigures have shot up for both girls and boys overthe past two years.
She said the refurbished library is encouragingkids to read more and is setting them on rightpath for future learning.

DELTA – A long and bitter chapter in Delta’sfarming history is finally coming to a closeas several pioneer families have secured theirexpropriated land.
A group of Brunswick Point farmers andthe Tsawwassen First Nation have reached asettlement that resolves a long-standing legaldispute over the expropriation of farmland.
“This is an important settlement whichsupports farming families at Brunswick Point,respects the Tsawwassen treaty and brings finalresolution to a long-standing dispute,” Ministerof Aboriginal Relations and Reconciliation MaryPolak said.
The agreement allows the provincialgovernment to sell the Brunswick Point landback to the farmers, while still supporting termsof the TFN treaty. The Brunswick Point families– the Swensons, Montgomerys, Gilmours andMcKims – lost their land in a mass expropriationin the spring of 1968.
Brunswick Point was among 800 hectares(2,000 acres) of privately owned farmland in anarea known as the Roberts Bank back-up lands.It was to become industrial development to servethe new superport.
Another 800 hectares (2,000 acres) of land
owned by Delta would also be expropriated.The land was never used for industrial
purposes, so pressure built on Victoria to returnit to the farmers.
In 1999, the provincial government agreed tosell back much of the expropriated land, but thatoffer wasn’t extended to Brunswick Point farmersbecause their land was under a treaty claim bythe TFN. Although government negotiatorslater offered assurances the farmers’ propertieswouldn’t be included in a treaty settlement, theprovince also signed an agreement with the TFNstipulating it would have first right of refusal topurchase the land for 80 years.
The families maintained that because theindustrial development never took place,they were entitled to a return of their primefarmland without any encumbrances. Anotherbig concern facing the farmers was the price fortheir land, which they had been leasing from thegovernment since it was expropriated.
The families took the government to court, butthe judge reserved decision in order to allow allthe parties to negotiate a deal.
The deal, announced last week, allows theBrunswick Point families to regain title to theirland at a pre-negotiated purchase price. The landwill be consolidated into four large parcels, whilestaying in the Agricultural Land Reserve.
Province says expropriated landwill be returned to Delta farmers

DELTA – Businessman Ron Toigo and hiscelebrity partners were on hand Thursday for theofficial sales launch of the Tsawwassen Springsdevelopment.
Singer Michael Bublé, former VancouverCanuck coach and GM Pat Quinn and recordproducer Bruce Allen joined Toigo, as well asmembers of Delta council and others, at the$400-million development to help kick off themarketing campaign.
“I’m blown away. This is just stunning. I knewit was going to be special, but it’s spectacular withthe views and the finish,” Toigo told the Optimist– a sister paper of the Now – of the completedfirst phase, a building comprising 55 condosoverlooking a new golf course.
The Shato Holdings president, noting thefinished product exceeded his high expectations,said there’s been a growing list of localsregistering to see what’s available.
The marketing is all about selling anexperience of high quality resort-style living,something Toigo described as “Disney-esque, ifthere is such a thing.”

Martie Knockaert, will comprise 490 housingunits – 296 condos ranging from 750 square feetto over 2,300 square feet, and 194 detached bareland strata homes from 1,500 square feet to over3,000 square feet.
The buildings are to have an “Arts & Craftsstyle made famous at Torrey Pines Golf Club.”
The construction also carries LEED
certification and geo-exchange heating and airconditioning.
A focal point of Tsawwassen Springs is anall-season par 70, 18-hole golf course designedby Vancouver-based Ted Locke. Other amenitieswill include a 32,000-square-foot neighbourhoodclubhouse, a fully equipped fitness centre andspa, restaurant, pub, banquet facility, outdoor
skating rink, tennis court and neighbourhoodstore and café.
A limited number of pre-construction salesof the Tsawwassen Golf and Country Clubredevelopment took place last year, but Toigosaid at the time he wanted the remaining unitsto be sold when the first phase was completed,saying homebuyers would be captivated oncethey saw the finished product.
The 55-hectare (137-acre) developmentreceived Delta and Metro Vancouver approvala couple of years ago but Toigo later came backwith an application to amend it.
Delta approved the changes, the most notablebeing an increase in the number of condos byspitting larger units into smaller ones. Toigoexplained at the time that a major reason was theHST, which will not apply to the less expensiveunits.
The majority of the condos will sell for under$600,000.
According to the project website (www.tsawwassensprings.ca), strata fees will be “keptvery low, with all amenities such as golf greenfees or fitness centre costs on a pay_as_you_gobasis. Every home has its own natural gas andelectrical meters.
Simply put, at Tsawwassen Springs, the idea isthat if you don’t use an amenity or service, youdon’t pay for it.”

DELTA – The arrival of eight new state-of-the-art buses could give another competitive edgeto Charter Bus Lines, the largest independentmotorcoach operator in British Columbia.
This month, the family-owned and operatedcompany welcomed the delivery of eight new2011 Prevost H3-45 coaches to its bustlingcompound, located on River Road in Delta.
These new high-tech buses, built at the Volvo-owned Prevost plant in Quebec, will cover CharterBus Lines’ large service region with near-zeroemissions and greatly improved fuel efficiency,thanks to their well-engineered D13 engines.
Equally important to Sheldon Eggen, longtimePresident and CEO of Charter Bus Lines, is thatthe new Prevost coaches are equipped with three-point safety belts for use by all passengers.
“We are ahead of the curve with that, becausethere is no legislation yet for safety belts on busesin B.C.,” Eggen said. “We are very excited to bethe first in the region to have buses with thisimportant safety feature.”
Each of the new Prevost buses is valued atmore than $550,000. “This is one of the largestdeliveries of coaches in our company’s history,”Eggen said. “Adding eight new buses to our
fleet is exciting. We look forward to rolling intothe future with safer, more environmentallyresponsible coaches.”
Close to 100 buses are operated andmaintained by Charter, a subsidiary of VancouverTours and Transit Ltd., which has been in thetransportation business for more than 60 years.
In the mid-1970s, the Eggen family becamefinancially involved in the company and took thecharter bus business in new directions.

SURREY — In an effort to make the eventmore family friendly, the Canadian CancerSociety’s Relay for Life at the CloverdaleMillennium Park Amphitheatre will start earlierthis year.
The society’s Relay for Life is staged annuallyto celebrate cancer survivors, remember lovedones that have been lost to the disease and raisefunds to fight cancer.
The Surrey event, to be held June 11, is partof a series of relays that will be hosted across thecountry this spring. Elsewhere, the White Rock/South Surrey relay is slated for June 24, whilethe Delta event was held Friday, May 13 at NorthDelta Secondary.
Coordinator Caitlin Berndt says this year’srelay in Cloverdale will see a few changes.
“It’s starting at noon. Part of our goal isto integrate more with the families and givethem more of an opportunity to come out andparticipate in the relay,” Berndt said Friday.
But you don’t have to participate in the relayofficially in order to support the event. Visitors
can drop by and partake in other activities onoffer at the park.
Berndt said a local Ford dealership will bringseveral vehicles to the park and the public cantest drive them for a $20 donation, money thatwill go to support the relay.
“It’s a special program that Ford offerscommunity and charity events to raise money,”she said.
Other festivities include an all-day barbecueand entertainment.
The local event has a strong bank ofvolunteers, about 120 of them signed up so far.
“We’re feeling pretty good about the numberof volunteers we have, but we’re alwayswelcoming new students or anyone that isinterested in participating in the relay,” she said.
Volunteer duties are largely “ambassadortype” roles such as meeting and greeting relayparticipants and visitors to the event, and helpingto supervise children’s activities.
Anyone interested in signing up as a volunteercan contact Carissa Halley at [email protected]
To register for the Relay for Life visit theCanadian Cancer Society’s website at www.cancer.ca/relay.

Surrey United capped an undefeated seasonby capturing their eighth consecutive women’sProvincial Cup title in Aldergrove Sunday.
The runaway regular season winners of theMetro Women’s Soccer League’s premier divisionmaintained their winning ways with a dominantpostseason. Surrey won the MWSL’s Premier Cupin March and then blew through the first tworounds of the Provincial Cup draw, outscoringtheir opponents 12-0. Sunday’s finale againstVancouver’s Westside was much closer but Surreywas still able to celebrate following a 1-0 win.
“That game was not an indication of how weplayed all season,” said Surrey veteran RandeeHermus. “It was not our best game but it showedthe Surrey United grit — it wasn’t pretty butwe pulled out on top. It was a testament to theplayers and the drive and determination we haveon this team. No matter what it takes, we’ll find away to win.”
In the first half it didn’t look like Surreywould need grit and determination to extendtheir seven-year-long win streak of ProvincialCup games. For the first 10 minutes Surreyexerted strong pressure with a half-dozen scoring
chances, all of which either went wide of the goalor were stopped by Westside goalkeeper JackieDennett.
“Their keeper was absolutely on fire,” saidSurrey coach Jeff Clarke. “She was probablythe best keeper I’ve seen all year. We played heronce before and she was alright but in the finalyou could tell their game plan was to have hershow up big and give them a chance to win.
She definitely did her job; she kept them in thegame early and gave them hope for making acomeback.”
Surrey did manage to squeak one goal pastDennett. In the 20th minute, Nicole Stewartunleashed a hard shot that deflected off adefender’s head and into the goal for a 1-0 Surreylead.
After that however, the play reverted to form
with Surrey building up to a scoring chancefollowed by Dennett spoiling the opportunity.
Thanks to Dennett, Westside stayed withinstriking distance into the second half as theyawaited a chance to score against the flow of play.
“Westside is a great team and we knew theywould be tough,” Hermus said. “They are by

Last November, members of Newton’sICST Pegasus were lower than crabdroppings, wondering what had gonewrong in their Vancouver Metro SoccerLeague premier season and staring at thedistinct possibility of being caught up in abattle to avoid regulation.
Sunday afternoon those thoughts werelong gone as Pegasus players were higherthan the North Shore mountains as theycelebrated their first B.C. championshipafter a 1-0 win over Vancouver’s Columbusin the men’s soccer Provincial Cup final.
“It was an epic day for us,” marvelledPegasus coach Rob Reed. “To winthe Provincial Cup is a fantasticaccomplishment and it was our numberone goal at the start of the season. But towin it the way we did this year – knowingthe path we took with all the struggles wehad in the first two or three months of theseason – made it all the more sweet.
“It was a colossal struggle at times butthrough it all the players stuck together,righted the ship and got on a roll theother way. It was a very powerful roll thatultimately couldn’t be stopped by anyone.”
After losing to cross-town rival SurreyUnited Firefighters in the VMSL’s ImperialCup title game in March, Pegasus playersvowed they would be better prepared thenext time they battled for silverware. OnSunday in Aldergrove they made good onthat promise with a solid showing against adetermined Columbus team.
Pegasus came out of the gates hard,
pressing into the Columbus zone andcreating a string of dangerous scoringchances. Azad Palani had two goldenchances in the opening half whileteammates Sahil Sandhu, Jag Gill andDiaz Kambere each had their own shot atopening the scoring only to come up emptyon their chances. Despite dominatingmuch of the play in the first 45 minutes,Pegasus had nothing to show for it otherthan zeros on the scoreboard.
“It was a very close game,” Reed said.“We could have been easily up by three orfour goals at halftime but instead it was still0-0. We had probably four quality chances
in the first half but couldn’t score. Thenthey kind of clawed their way into the gamewith some good chances themselves in thesecond half and our keeper had to make acouple of fantastic saves.
Columbus came on strong to openthe second half but, like Pegasus in thefirst half, could not capitalize on theiropportunities. Pegasus slowly reassertedcontrol, and began to create pressure inthe Columbus zone. The Horsemen’s hard
work was finally rewarded in the 70thminute with what turned out to be thegame’s only goal.
Sandhu created the chance by sending acrossing pass for Gill, who nodded it overthe leaping Columbus goalkeeper. TheVancouver goalie got a piece of the ballwith his hand, but not enough to keep itout of the net.
“It was a massive relief for us,” Reedsaid. “Nobody said anything but everybodyon our team was wondering if the missedchances we had earlier would come back tohaunt us. When the ball went into the netit was a huge relief for us to finally have thelead.”
Pegasus defence protected their zoneextremely well for the final 20 minutes,denying Columbus any scoring chanceswhile coming close to adding an insurancegoal on the counterattack.
“When that final whistle went it was anunbelievable feeling for every player,” Reedsaid. “The elation and the celebrating withthe players was just phenomenal. Thenwhen they presented the cup to our captain(Paul Bahia), he didn’t lift it. Instead hegave it to Lavy Mangat, a player who hasbeen with the club for a long time and wassupposed to be retiring this year.
“Lavy was the guy who actually liftedthe Provincial Cup for us and it was a very,very emotional moment for everybody onthe team.
Reed then added with a laugh, “It wasthe first provincial championship for Lavy.He was supposed to be retiring but nowhe has to come to nationals with us onThanksgiving.”

Phil Reimer’sgolf reportFor awhile on Sunday I didn’t thinkany player wanted to win the TPCPlayers Championship. This is thetournament the Americans love tocall the fifth major. KJ Choi andDavid Toms, who were at the topin the final round, were missingshort putts, and in the case of Tomsputting it in the water when a lay-upmight have been better suggested.
Toms righted himself, of course,and came through on 18 to tie Choi with a brilliant 20-footputt and force a playoff at the famed 17 “Island Hole.”
OK, if this is a near major should you be deciding thewinner with one shot on an island green?
Choi won because Toms missed a short put—again. Bothwere doing it all day.
Interesting with all the young hot shots in the final daymix, it was a veteran twosome that was left standing.
What do we make of Tiger Woods and his withdrawal afteronly nine holes on the first day?
Woods is the last guy who is going to tell you how much ofhis body is under repair but if its his Achilles and knee andpossibly a new knee is in the offing then perhaps he willthen be able to play at the level he used to dream about.There is no consistency to his game right now and that’swhat Woods has always thrived on. While others werefalling around him, he was so consistent shot after shot.
*********************************************************************Good news for Abbotsford’s Nick Taylor, one this county’stop amateur players. Taylor is going to make his pro debutat the Canadian Tour event in Victoria next month andhas already received six exemptions to date for the season.The tour then heads to Kamloops where the BC Lions arepractising. Maybe a tour—a Lions hitting contest for charity.
*********************************************************************GolfBC, Western Canada’s largest golf course owner andoperator, has announced the launch of an iPhone mobileapplication to allow golfers to book real-time tee times24/7 through their iPhone or iPad at all of GolfBC’s 12courses throughout B.C. and Maui.
The GolfBC app can be downloaded for free from theiPhone App Store.
I wonder if they have an app to cure the shakes over mythree-foot putts.
*********************************************************************Remember A.J. Eathorne, the pride of Penticton and awoman who was destined for big things as a pro? Well itdidn’t turn out that way.
However, Eathorne is still on the course. When her careerturned south she turned to caddying and now will be onthe bag of one of the bright stars on the LPGA: BrittanyLincicome.
That’s all for this week—surely better weather is coming.

Surrey wins eighth B.C. crown
SPORTS
no means a team that we tookfor granted and we knew itwouldn’t be easy. We weredefinitely the stronger team onthe day but all they needed wasone goal and anything couldhave happened.”
Hermus almost providedan insurance marker midwaythrough the second half whenher header in traffic appearedto cross the goal line. Thereferee was unable to seethrough the group of bodies inthe penalty box, however, andthe game continued with the
score 1-0 in Surrey’s favour.“Who’s to say but it looked
like it was across the line,”Hermus said. “The gamewas won anyway so it didn’tmatter. If that goal wouldhave been the difference thenmaybe I would have fussedmore about it but in the end itdidn’t matter — one goal wasenough.”Surrey’s defence held forthe remainder of the gameand when the final whistlesounded, United wasmaking plans for an eighthstraight strip to the nationalchampionships. This year’s
tournament will take place inMontreal on Thanksgivingweekend.
When asked if winningprovincial titles is getting oldfor Surrey players, Hermusquickly denied it.
“Are you kidding? Not atall,” the national team stalwartsaid. “When the final whistleblew it was the same intensityand craziness and excitementas all the other times we’vewon. We all still feel it andit’s definitely not boring tous. That’s one the big reasonsI’m still hanging on and stillplaying.”

Prepare your bike for summer riding
AUTOMOTIVE
As our days slowly warm up, motorcycleowners are getting their wheels out ofhibernation.
But before revving the engine, it’s importantthat bikers take some time to get theirmotorcycles ready for the new season.
Preparing your bike is not only importantfrom a maintenance perspective, but also tomake sure that riding doesn’t get too rough onthe wallet.
“By asking the right questions and carefullybringing your bike out of storage, motorcycleowners will have a much greater chance of asafe and trouble–free 2010 motorcycle season,”said Mauro Convertini, an insurance expert
from Aviva Canada.Before you head out onto the highway, here
are a couple of preparations that Convertinisuggests you take:
– Test your equipment: Safely reinstall thebattery and examine all fluid levels. Check forcracked tires, broken parts or leaking oil. Setthe tire pressures back to riding specs.
– Take it slow: Your biking skills will berusty and road surfaces will be differentthan your last ride. Sand and salt depositson the edge and corners of the roads may behazardous.
– Install an anti–theft device: There area range of anti–theft devices designed formotorcycles and some insurance companieswill offer you a discount if you have anapproved one installed.
– Check your insurance: Follow up withyour insurance broker to ensure you havethe most comprehensive coverage. Ask aboutdiscounts for bikers with safe driving records.
