The man accused of killing a longtime White Rock resident ear-lier this month made an emotional appearance in Surrey Provincial Court Friday.

Jeffrey Caillé, 22, appeared in court to appoint a new defence lawyer.

The slight man, with shoulder-length brown hair, wore an orange prison-issued shirt and pants as he addressed the court through a French inter-preter. During p r o c e e d i n g s , Caillé’s mother, who was watch-ing from the front row of the gallery with another woman, began to cry, causing the young man to also lose his composure.

As Caillé was escorted from the courtroom after his hearing, he blew a kiss to his mother.

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

Fraser Surrey Docks will soon be shipping coal overseas.

Port Metro Vancouver announced Thurs-day morning it has approved a long-proposed coal-transfer facility at Fraser Surrey Docks.

It would take at least four million tonnes of U.S. coal by train through White Rock and Surrey each year and send it by barge down

the Fraser River to Texada Island for reload-ing to ocean-going ships.

Environmentalists, residents and other groups opposed to the project had raised concerns about the terminal’s potential harm on the environment and air quality.

Fraser Health Authority chief medical health officer Dr. Paul Van Buynder called last year for a full health-impact assessment, and criticism of the project has also come

from Metro Vancouver cities, Vancouver Coastal Health, Vancity and the B.C. Nurses Union. Climate-change activists, including Voters Taking Action on Climate Change (VTACC) believe U.S. coal might stay in the ground and not be burnt overseas if new coal terminals aren’t built in Metro Vancou-ver or along the U.S. west coast.

The South Surrey/White Rock Chamber of Commerce also took a stance against the

project, although the Surrey Board of Trade supported it, along with such stakeholders as the United Steelworkers and the Interna-tional Longshore and Warehouse Union.

In announcing last week that the project is going ahead, Port Metro Vancouver noted it was aware of opposition to the facility, but said “all public, municipal, agency, First Nations and other stakeholder concerns and ques-

A number of South Surrey bank patrons were treated for pepper-spray injuries last week fol-lowing an armed robbery

The Surrey RCMP’s canine unit was called to Scotiabank in the 2400-block of 160 Street

Thursday afternoon in an attempt to track a suspect who sprayed at least six people before fleeing with an undisclosed amount of money.

According to Surrey RCMP, the robbery occurred just before 1 p.m.

The assailant is described as a man covered “head-to-toe” in black, with a hoodie and ban-

dana covering his face. It is believed he fled the area on foot.On Monday, a Surrey RCMP spokesper-

son said the investigation is still open, and no arrests had been made. Aside from those treated on-site for pepper-spray, no serious injuries were reported.

Specialized police teams descended on a South Surrey home early Wednesday to assist in the arrest of a man wanted in con-nection with a July shooting incident in Cloverdale.

The arrest took place during a search of a home in the 15300-block of 27A Ave-nue, with assistance from officers with the Mounties’ High Risk Target Team, Emer-gency Response Team and Police Dog Ser-vices.

The Cloverdale incident took place July

21 at approximately 4:30 p.m. According to police, a woman reported that a man had accidentally shot his friend in the leg at a home in the 18700-block of 60A Avenue.

The perpetrator fled the scene on a motor-cycle.

Charges laid following the Aug. 20 arrest include aggravated assault and assault, as well as six firearms-related charges.

Langley resident Robert Miskenack, 27, remains in custody and is due back in court on Aug. 28.

Police swarm South Surrey home

Accident-shooting arrest

A man has been arrested and charged in the murder of a senior outside the Front Room Drop in North Surrey last month.

On July 25, police responded to a stabbing in the 10600-block of 135A Street. They found Donald

Williams Deweyn, 63, suffering from stab wounds. He was taken to hospital, where he died.

Last week, the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team arrested 22-year-old Dylan Robert Dempsey.

“Although an arrest has

been made, IHIT will continue to aggressively investigate this homicide as we believe there are persons of interest who have information that have yet to come forward,” IHIT Staff Sgt. Jennifer Pound said.

Dead seals look like they were targeted

South Surrey blaze deemed suspicious

Fire guts site of suspected grow-op

Caution advised

No arrests after pair of assaults reportedNick GreenizanStaff Reporter

Surrey RCMP are continuing this week to investigate a sexual assault on a 38-year-old South Surrey woman near Alderwood Park Aug. 18.

No arrest had been made in the case by Peace Arch News’ press deadline Monday afternoon, and police are still advising residents to exercise caution while walking alone.

The suspect – described as a six-foot-tall, dark-haired white man, between 35 and 42 years old – may have also sustained injuries during the attack; the victim managed to head-butt him before fleeing the scene.

Surrey RCMP are also still not able to connect the Aug. 18 assault to an attempted sexual assault in White Rock Aug. 8.

Last week, the Surrey and White Rock detachments issued a joint warning, noting similarities in each case.

In the White Rock assault, a 40-year-old woman was “accosted by an unknown male,” according to an Aug. 9 release posting on the White Rock detachment’s website.

The assault occurred at 3 a.m., in the 1500-block of Merklin Street, while the victim was walking her dog. The suspect is described as a white man between 20 and 30 years old, about five-foot-10 inches tall, with short hair.

White Rock RCMP did not return calls by PAN deadline Monday afternoon.

Anyone with information on the Surrey assault is asked to call Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502.

Anyone with information on the White Rock incident can call 778-593-3600.

To remain anonymous, call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS.

White Rock resident Lee Lewis has called on White Rock RCMP and Fisheries and Oceans Canada after, days apart, finding two seal carcasses on the beach half a kilometre west of the West Beach picnic area.

Lewis said the dead leopard seals, appar-ently a mother and pup, had evidently received multiple gunshot wounds some-where in the water and washed up on shore.

“I don’t think they could have been shot that far out on the water, or they would have gone to the bottom,” he said. “They were both in fairly decent condition, and the gulls hadn’t been at them – but I’m not a forensics expert.”

Lewis said his early-morning walk on the beach last Thursday was marred by the dis-

covery of “a scene out of a horror movie.” He said the corpse of an adult seal he found on the shore bore what seemed to him to be multiple bullet wounds.

“I immediately contacted Fisheries and Oceans to report this tragic scene of death and destruction at the hands of some dis-turbed individual,” he told Peace Arch News in an email Sunday.

On a walk later that morning, he found the pup, also bearing what he took to be bullet wounds, a short distance from where the adult had washed up, lodged under a tree trunk.

Concerned by the potential dangers, he contacted White Rock RCMP, who told him Fisheries and Oceans, after investigating the initial report, had already contacted them.

White Rock RCMP spokespeople could not

be reached for comment by PAN press time Monday; a Fisheries and Oceans communica-tions advisor said she would investigate.

As well as being disturbed by what he called a “senseless” killing of wildlife, Lewis said he is concerned that someone firing a

rifle that close to shore runs the risk of tak-ing a human life as well.

“It’s just crazy,” he said. “Bullets can rico-chet – skip off the water. I’m not sure how anyone could be that reckless and stupid – there could be kids and families nearby.”

Lewis, who has worked on commercial fishing boats, theorized the seals might have been targeted by commercial fishermen. It is not unknown for fishermen to shoot at seals interfering with their catch, he said, noting “sport fishermen seldom carry high-powered weapons on board their vessels.”

Lewis said he hopes to raise awareness of the public to the incidents.

“Maybe somebody will see something on a boat,” he said. “Hopefully they’ll report it and stop whoever it is doing this crap.”

Signs of a marijuana grow operation were noted at the scene of a South Surrey house that was gutted by fire Thursday morning.

Fire crews were alerted to the blaze, on a heavily treed property in the 17200-block of 16 Avenue, at approximately 6 a.m.

“(There was)… evidence there that would suggest or confirm there was a grow-op there at some time,” deputy fire Chief Karen Fry told Peace Arch News.

“We previously had it listed as a potential grow-op.”

Fry described the fire as suspicious. Traffic along 16 Avenue was diverted at 176

and 168 streets while crews dealt with the fire,

which had been “free-burning” at the seem-ingly abandoned house for some time before it was reported.

There was concern it could spread to neigh-bouring homes or spark a fire in the forested area, Fry said.

What remained of the two-storey house – it burned to the point of collapse – was demol-ished for safety reasons, Fry said.

“There’s some precarious points of the build-ing,” she said, noting demolition was also nec-essary to ensure any remaining “hot spots” were extinguished.

CrowningachievementThe fifth annual White Rock Princess Party – held Saturday at the Star of the Sea Hall – was the most successful yet, according to organizer Myra Merkel. The sold-out event raised $17,559 for the White Rock Firefighters Charitable Society. In total, 225 tickets were sold for the event, which was highlighted by a performance from Princess Elsa, from the Disney movie, Frozen.

tions” were addressed, adding that “should there exist any risk of adverse impacts of the proposal… those impacts could be mitigated to acceptable levels.”

Some opponents were not surprised the project received the go-ahead.

“It was pretty disappointing, but not unexpected,” said White Rock Mayor Wayne Baldwin, who last year attended a protest against increased coal traffic through the Peninsula, along with Sur-rey-White Rock Liberal MLA Gordon Hogg, White Rock Coun. Helen Fathers and Surrey Coun. Barinder Rasode.

“It will ultimately mean a lot more trains going through,” Baldwin said, noting that the issue of the full health-impact assessment called for by Van Buynders has yet to be undertaken.

“It strengthens our resolve about getting some-thing done about dangerous goods and excessive train traffic through our community.”

“I knew it was coming,” said Paula Williams, co-organizer of the grassroots South Surrey-based network Communities and Coal, which has been sharply critical of the Fraser Surrey Docks expan-sion project and potential health impacts since being formed last year. “So it’s not necessarily a surprise. I’m disappointed, yes, but not surprised.”

The Crescent Beach resident noted Golder Asso-ciates Ltd., which did a review of the project – and is described by Port Metro Vancouver in its releases as “an independent environmental consultant” – has a business relationship with the Macquarie Group, parent company of Fraser Surrey Docks.

“They have gone into business together in different partnerships to bid on projects, including an airport tunnel in Toronto and a construction contract in Alaska,” she said. “I’m not sure of the definition of an independent third-party reviewer (that Port Metro Vancouver is using), but it doesn’t sit well.”

Williams said it appeared from the Port Metro Vancouver website that Golder just spot-checked information, rather than gathering data themselves.

However, Peter Xotta, vice-president of planning and operations at Port Metro Vancouver, said the decision was not taken lightly.

“Through our comprehensive project review pro-cess, stakeholder consultation, as well as third-party validated environmental and health studies, it was determined there are no unacceptable risks and the project could be permitted.”

Port Metro Vancouver says the $15-million proj-ect will provide 25 direct and 25 indirect full-time jobs. Approval came after a lengthy review process.

“Over the past two years, a significant amount of work and a number of comprehensive studies have gone into ensuring this project is safe and that concerns raised were addressed,” said Jeff Scott, president and CEO of Fraser Surrey Docks.

“We take our obligation to the community very

seriously, as we have for over 50 years. We under-stand our responsibility and will deliver on our commitment to ensure this project is operated safely and responsibly.”

Williams said the decision took two years because of public and political pressure for an environmen-tal assessment, not necessarily because a thorough review was completed. She said her group will now go into a “different stage of battle,” calling the situ-

ation a “chess game” they’re ready for.“We’re not going away. We’re still

committed to obtaining an indepen-dent health-impact statement. Even though Port Metro Vancouver is hiding behind (the limits of) its jurisdictional responsibilities, someone has to take

responsibility.“We’re not trying to stop shipments of coal – we

just want the truth.”The docks are located on South Fraser Perimeter

Road, southwest of the Pattullo Bridge.

Coal critics say they will fight on from page 1

of longtime Peninsula resident Bruce Ridout.

Two women were also injured, and neighbours reported a violent alter-cation between a young man and woman prior to Ridout’s death.

When a neighbour – who identified herself through an online com-ment on a Peace Arch News article as Melissa Brady – tried to inter-vene, she was threat-ened and had a knife thrown at her, before she called 911.

According to police and witnesses, the attacker then went inside Ridout’s house and threw knives and other objects off the balcony. When another neighbour went in to

subdue the assailant, he discovered Ridout’s body and ran out of the house asking for some-one who knew CPR.

According to neigh-bours, Brady ran inside and attempted to assist the man. In her online comment, Brady said she was with Ridout when he died.

“I shall never forget what happened and how senseless this crime was. RIP Bruce. My heart is with you every-day,” she writes.

While police have not released any details regarding cause of death, witnesses say Ridout was stabbed while coming to the defence of a woman.

Caillé’s next court appearance is Sept. 5.

The province’s deputy commissioner for the RCMP is defending funding cuts to organized- and serious-crime forces.

The province cut $4.2 million from the Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit (CFSEU) and Provincial Major Crime program, slicing a total of 25 investigators from the Outlaw Motorcycle Gang squad and the major crimes’ missing persons and unsolved homicide team.

“After significant consultation with my Senior Management Team and the CFSEU-BC Board of Governance, I notified the province that the budget shortfall would be reflected in cuts to the Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit BC and to the Provincial Major Crime program,” deputy commissioner Craig Callens said in a news release Wednesday.

Surrey RCMP Sgt. Dale Carr said the cuts won’t have a huge impact on Surrey.

“It’s not going to have that

profound an effect on Surrey itself,” Carr said. “We experience things like this on a regular basis, where the dynamics change in policing and we have to adjust our resources.”

The cuts to CFSEU amount to $2.8 million, chopping 12 positions to the bike gang squad and maintaining a “vacancy pattern” while reducing support positions.

Major crimes is being cut by 13 positions in the Special Projects/Unsolved Homicide/Missing Persons program. This includes the reduction of 13 full-time investigators within various projects.

Surrey Coun. Tom Gill described the losjs of those services as “unfortunate.”

Surrey is lucky to have a detachment large enough to cover those lost positions, he said, but many smaller detachments will not.

The move by the province to cut costs at the detriment of municipalities is nothing new, Gill said, adding it often happens by way of roads and social services.

“The provincial government

is just trying to balance its budget on the backs of the municipalities,” Gill said.

“This is a very important issue,” he added, noting the city should be banging on the solicitor general’s door to have those services returned.

Former chair of Surrey’s police committee, Coun. Barinder Rasode, said it’s not a question of whether the RCMP can adjust.

“I have no doubt that they could absorb it, I’m just saying they shouldn’t have to,” Rasode said.

She said the solicitor general should be asked to return those services, but also to work with the local municipalities on what services should be cut, if any.

Surrey was not consulted at all before the cuts were announced, she said.

Former Surrey Mayor Doug McCallum, who is campaigning for the job this fall, said the timing of the budget reductions couldn’t be worse.

“These cuts are completely inappropriate,” McCallum said.

He agrees with Rasode that Surrey should have been consulted on the decision.

“We have got to get better communication in the RCMP and the region,” said McCallum, saying it’s key to effective decision-making.

Isolated, frail seniors and people with mobility issues who live alone in a single-family home will be among those hardest

hit by new Canada Post plans to discontinue house-to-house mail service by 2019.

While it’s understandable that Canada Post would want to revisit so-called “snail mail” delivery and look for efficiencies in an era of digital communication, the national postal service shouldn’t discriminate against individuals who are unable to use the new community mail boxes for one health reason or another.

But coming up with a simple solution to help these people is proving to be a challenge.

Canada’s national mail carrier deserves credit for appointing a dedicated team to work out adjustments and accommodations for individuals with mobility issues, but requiring a doctor’s note to prove need seems heavy-handed.

Surely, there are other ways to handle this situation without going to such extremes.

Many of those who need home delivery – including those here on the Semiahmoo Peninsula, which boasts a large seniors population – are likely to be in straitened financial circumstances with few supports. Yet they should also be given credit for their independence and not having to rely on taxpayer-subsidized housing or hospital assistance.

It seems reasonable to take them at their word rather than requiring a doctor’s note to justify a special accommodation. Even Canada’s doctors are crying foul, arguing that this requirement will burden doctors and the already expensive health care system.

Perhaps Canada Post could consider allowing seniors and disability advocacy organizations to be referral agencies. An automated telephone service could also be implemented, similar to one used for Employment Insurance, for people needing special accommodation.

True, there may be some people who take advantage of the situation without a proper screening.

But rooting out these fraudsters might be more costly than simply going by the honour system.

Like the SkyTrain fare gates situation – where the solution to fair evasion is more costly than the problem – trust is cheaper.

Honour system is cheaper

Published at South Surrey by Black Press Ltd.

The month-long Agricultural Land Commission consultation closed Aug. 22, and the B.C. government

is compiling the feedback received from a province-wide tour and invitation to comment.

I can’t tell you much about the official input. The consultation sessions were by invitation only, with no media allowed, and the submissions are also not public.

I reached Agriculture Minister Norm Letnick as he was travelling around B.C. with his camper van, conducting his own meetings with farmers. He’s not saying much either, except that a summary of the findings should be made public in September as the government considers new regulations.

The aim of this exercise is to consider relaxing rules around secondary farmland uses in the Interior, Kootenay and North regions, as well as food processing and retail sales of food and beverages on farmland. Also under consideration is allowing breweries and distilleries, as wine and cider production are now allowed, and relaxing rules to permit more off-farm products to be sold from farms.

Letnick defended the 30-day summer

consultation as adequate. It’s based on 11 questions developed with staff, farm groups and local government. He’s also not counting how many emails stacked

up by proponents or critics.“I’m not conducting a

plebiscite,” Letnick said. “What I’m trying to do is come up with the best balance of recommendations to make to government that can hold their own based on the idea and the potential positive and negative consequences.”

NDP agriculture critic Lana Popham was more forthcoming. She was invited to the formal sessions, and also won’t talk about them directly. But she’s not backing away from her criticisms.

The government is proposing to bypass the Agricultural Land Commission for several kinds of decisions, including subdivision for family use or into properties of 160 acres or more.

“I think the general idea was that people trust the ALC to make that decision, and it should still go through the commission,” Popham said. “Actually, the commission has been making those decisions anyway, and I think they’ve been quite fair when somebody applies.”

She said farmers also aren’t sold on the

notion of easing the rules for secondary businesses.

“You will already find situations where there’s, let’s say, a welding shop or something like that attached to somebody’s residence who lives on ALR land,” Popham said. “That sort of stuff has been allowed, but it’s always had to go through the ALC or some sort of process that’s been in place. This leaves that process out, and so I think that’s the problem people are having.”

She noted that non-farm activities have a way of growing until they become the main business.

A reader who attended the Kelowna session said even winery operators aren’t thrilled about the proposal to enlarge retail space and allow sales of wine or beer not made on site. He said “not one” participant there liked the idea of increasing industrial activity such as food processing or retailing. And he agreed with Popham that the ALC is doing a good job with subdivision applications.

Popham also clarified the situation with the leased craft gin distillery on her own Vancouver Island farm. It started as a winery, and the conversion needed only local government approval because the production facility was already considered and taxed as light industrial.

Victoria Gin has been a model for the government’s push to allow distilleries, breweries or meaderies on farmland. Given the B.C. Liberals’ love of liberalized liquor, I expect that change to go through.

Gaza truth kept from publicEditor:Re: Support for Israel justified, Aug. 19 letters.

To all the people who are in support of Israel for bombing Gaza and killing innocent people, including children, please do yourself a favour and read this op-ed by Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu in an Israeli newspaper: http://www.haaretz.com/opinion/1.610687

Most of the private corporate media in Canada and the U.S. has been keeping the public in the dark for a long time. Hence, I won’t blame the public for their ignorance.Arun Chatterjee, Surrey

No benefit to bus Wi-FiEditor:Re: Three buses equipped with Wi-Fi, Aug. 19

So, now we have to put up with possibly more addictive behaviour on public transit.

It is shocking to me to see Translink feeding into the over-use of already problem-causing devices.

I have been witness to altercations involving these gadgets escalating into near chaos. Not a very pleasant experience in a confined space.

Transit is a means of getting from point A to B in as peaceful and uneventful a fashion as possible. We do not need entertaining by Translink (improve the customer experience on transit).

Years ago, we got a ban on smoking on public transit. Who knows for sure if Wi-Fi isn’t even more detrimental to our health, and sanity?

Why the 351 White Rock to Bridgeport as a trial run? Why spoil one of the most pleasant rides in the Lower Mainland?A. Wallis, White Rock

Burden one we can all shareEditor:Re: His smiles will live on, Aug. 19 letters.

Mr. Marc Burchell of Surrey wrote a letter to your paper, on the untimely death of Robin Williams.

My wife and I are both touched by this letter and its context, as we, too, know someone who is afflicted with depression.

Mr. Burchell has the gift of com-municating to all of us on this pain-ful and tragic subject. In some way, whether we are totally aware of it or not, depression has an impact on all human beings and in all walks of life.

We also agree that it is well within our power to make a huge difference to those we care about in our little corner of the world. It is a burden

that can be shared. We know this. Thanks, Mr. Burchell

Public interest ignoredEditor:Re: ‘I can’t seem to get a straight answer from the city’; Vacant house has neighbours riled, Aug 5.

I read with interest, concern and sympathy about the frustration experienced by White Rock residents over city hall’s coy mishandling of the “Waves on Marine” development project and the impending development project for 1575/1577 Nichol Rd.

The official indifference and lack of meaningful action shown by the city to the legitimate concerns is simply shameful.

But sadly, this is not a new thing. Led as they are by the developers’ champion, Mayor Wayne Baldwin, the majority pro-development-at-any-cost clique currently in command of city council have left a record that shows a clear and unmistakable pattern.

As Baldwin reportedly said, even greater density is coming to White Rock “whether we want it or not.”

Whether it is the Bishop Road development, the White Rock Muffler Shop development, the Mariner’s Reach development, the Evergreen Baptist development or a multitude of other smaller

development projects, in all cases, the city has placed developer interests paramount above public interests and concerns of neighbouring residents.

What do you think will happen when the Epcor Oxford Street land development project resurfaces, if all of the current developer clique on council get re-elected?Dennis Lypka, White Rock

Safety should matter here, too

An open letter to Surrey-White Rock MLA Gordon Hogg:

As you are my MLA, I wanted to bring your attention to some of the smart-grid business-model issues, which I believe were not much or at all communicated.

As you may or may not know, every smart meter technically is a data-transmission relaying node of BC Hydro’s wireless microwave mesh system. It re-transmits the data from neighbouring devices – other smart meters.

Here is the key point: a smart meter is installed on the owner’s premises, yet as smart-meter proxies the transmission of the data which the owner has nothing to do with, it means that BC Hydro is doing its commercial activity; non-related to the owner’s meter readings, gathering and re-transmitting the data not related to the owner’s electrical consumption.

It looks like an obvious violation of legal business practice – mandating the installation of a device for non-related-to-owner business,with no disclosure of the smart meter full spectrum of functionality; no request and negotiation for locating the smart meter as a device doing more than homeowner electrical consumption reading.

It is not just conflict of interest, but rather, a violation of homeowners’ property rights.Michael Volasnky, Surrey

Saskatchewan is removing all 105,000 smart meters and re- installing the older meters for public safety.

That province had at least eight smart-meter fires, but B.C. Energy Minister Bill Bennett says he’s unaware of any problems here.

A Mission woman’s house burnt down due to smart meter installation; smart-meter fires also hit the news in Coquitlam, Sparwood, Port Alberni, Nanaimo, Port Hardy and Vernon.

Our fire commissioner has no code for such fires, so it’s hard to ascertain the number in BC.

Saskatchewan Energy Minister Bill Boyd said that any time families are at risk, actions have to be taken.

Our government response, as with any smart-meter health and safety issue, is willful ignorance and a cheerful spin.

File photoWhite Rock needs a bylaw limiting the flying of flags to those of the city, B.C. or Canada, writes Roger Currie.

Editor:I think it is wonderful that our community can

celebrate different festivals from the various culture groups that surround us.

The festivals allow us to learn more about each other and to help us, I hope, to come closer together, regardless of our religious or cultural beliefs.

I do ask though, that, regardless of the festival being celebrated, the flag of the nationality celebrating does not fly anywhere in the city, except at city hall or in a

flag-flying location designated by the city. I did not like the seeing the national flag of another

country flying from the pier last year supported by a large balloon.

The only flags that should be flying at anytime should be the flag of the City of White Rock, of the Province of B.C. and, above all, the flag of Canada. No exceptions.

A bylaw should be instituted by the City of White Rock to control this. Roger Currie, Surrey

Tracking a stolen pickup truck led police to thousands of dollars worth of pilfered merchandise in Surrey.

On Aug. 11, the Integrated Municipal Provincial Auto Crime Team (IMPACT) and Surrey RCMP followed the driver of a stolen Nissan pickup through the Guildford area.

They followed the female driver to a residence near 100 Avenue and 138 Street where she was arrested.

While there, they found five other stolen vehicles, including a Jaguar and a motorhome.

Upon searching the home, police found a huge cache of other stolen merchandise including welders, power tools, generators,

car parts/rims, high end bicycles, audio equipment, a boat motor, guitars and tool kits.

The investigation is continuing and charges are pending on the female driver, as well as other individuals located at the property.

IMPACT is in the

process of identifying the owners of the items seized.

A video of the goods and more photos are available at http://bit.ly/1s6d570. Anyone wishing to claim an item may contact Const. Daymon Skelton at 778-290-3689. Proof of ownership is required.

Lower Mainland real estate prices hit all-time highs last month, at least for detached houses.

The benchmark price of single-family houses tracked by the Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver climbed to $980,500 in July, an increase of 6.5 per cent from a year ago.

Attached homes were up 3.4 per cent year-over-year to $472,400, while condos were up 2.2 per cent to $376,500.

Benchmark prices show the shifts of a typical property and exclude the most expensive ones that can skew average prices much higher.

The Fraser Valley Real Estate Board (FVREB), which includes Surrey, White Rock and North Delta, reported a benchmark detached house price

of $568,300 in July, up three per cent from a year earlier.

The strongest gain in detached house prices in the Valley has been the 6.6 per cent one-year increase in White

Rock.But

townhouses in the Fraser Valley were up just 0.2 per cent to $298,500 and benchmark condo prices

have fallen 3.6 per cent from July of 2013 to $194,700.

“Our market has fully recovered from last year’s slump and has returned to what we typically see in the Fraser Valley, which is a steady, consistent

market,” said FVREB president Ray Werger.

He said upward pressure on prices has been seen in areas such as White Rock, South Surrey, North Delta and Langley.

He said condos are “a different story” – they dropped as much as 16 per cent in Abbotsford over one year – but now offer “tremendous opportunities for buyers.”

The strongest one-year gains across the Lower Mainland have been for detached houses in Vancouver (up around 10 per cent), West Vancouver (up 9.3 per cent), as well as condos in east Burnaby, which are up 11.7 per cent.

perspectives…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula

Boaz JosephBlack Press

On this particular day in June 2012, breakfast had taken place hours earlier, shortly after 3:30 a.m., in a

church in Kelowna.By mid-day, amid seemingly interminable

uphill stretches on the highway, with massive leg pain and mind-numbing fatigue having set in, an occasional glance downward kept Siobhan Coates going – for what would total 12 hours of pedalling, covering 400 kilometres from Kelowna to North Delta.

Having trained the previous year as a support-crew member, this was her first Ride2Survive event as a rider, and it wasn’t easy.

But she had taped to her bike a photo of her sister and nephew.

Her sister, she remembered, was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2011, just one week before the first Ride2Survive event Coates was involved with.

“I had no idea when I joined the group.”So, on this day in 2012, she pushed on,

keeping in sync with the other riders.“I was very headstrong,” the Surrey

woman – who works at Thrifty Foods in Morgan Crossing – said. “I would not listen to my legs.”

Her sister had already had her surgery; a double mastectomy with reconstruction, but it wasn’t yet clear if she was out of the woods.

“I had a lot of anger as well. So anytime in the ride of 2012, whenever I would get tired or think I couldn’t do it, I would just look down at the picture of my sister and think, well, my sister had no choice, so I’m gonna just focus on the fact that she powered through.

“And I never wanted my nephew to not

have his mother.”The picture on the bike was only replaced

this year, as the original was worn out.While Ride2Survive offered hope as

cancer threatened her sister, there were also other positive distractions to come from being involved in the event every year since.

Her initial connection to Ride2Survive was made by local spin instructor and ride

founder, Vicki Kunzli.“I didn’t have a road bike at this point,”

she said. “I had a $200 Canadian Tire bike. I didn’t have the clip-on shoes or anything fancy.”

At the time, she didn’t aspire to more than just supporting the group – 400 km in one day seemed impossible.

She went on a few training rides with the group, and halfway through the 2011 training season, she splurged on a proper road bike, knowing that she was interested in joining as a rider the following year.

She still rode the last 80 km in the first year – she had to pay tribute to her sister.

That year, among other new friends, Coates was introduced to a veteran Ride2Survive member and cancer survivor named Graham Street.

“I met Graham in 2011 and thought he was a great guy. He was a ride captain and well known within the group.”

The following year, spending more time alongside others in training and on the ride day, she got to know the riders better,

including Street.“A few of the riders were like, ‘ooh, yeah,

Graham’s great, and you guys should look at maybe dating,’ and I was like, ‘oh no, we’re just friends,’ that kind of thing.”

It wasn’t until after the 2012 ride that the friendship flourished – their first date was two weeks later.

Two full years later, and just one week after the Ride2Survive, the couple got married on June 28, 2014.

“The ceremony was at the Columbia Theatre in New Westminster, and the reception was on the Fraser River Paddleboat,” Coats recalled. “My sister, Patsy, gave me away as my dad was too old to make the trip from Nova Scotia.”

Half of the 60 wedding guests were Ride2Survive members.

Coates is planning to re-join Ride2Survive in 2015.

“It’s my friends, it’s my husband, it’s my life.”

The YMCA of Greater Vancouver will be providing strike camps for children if the teacher job action con-tinues into the new school year.

Parents can contact YMCA locations to put their child on the “just in case” wait list for the camps.

The organization is working towards providing just under 1,200 spaces at 34 locations in the Lower Mainland and the Sunshine Coast.

According to a news release from the YMCA, at minimum there will be a limited number of spaces at four YMCA membership centres in Van-couver, Surrey and Chilliwack, as well as on the Sunshine Coast.

Camps will run from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.

each weekday and will be available to children aged five to 12.

Cost will be $10 per day for YMCA members and $30 per day for non-members. Being on the wait list does not guarantee a spot, the news release states, but the YMCA “will do every-thing we can to offer care to all those we are able to accommodate.”

Once details of the strike are known, organizers will immediately begin call-ing people on the wait list.

The YMCA will issue a receipt for the camp costs, which can be submit-ted for the $40/day voucher the pro-vincial government is providing.

To sign up, call 604-939-9622 or visit a YMCA membership centre.

Many people don’t realize they have a fungal nail problem and, therefore, don’t seek treatment. Yet, fungal toenail infections are a common foot health problem and can persist for years without ever causing pain. The disease, characterized by a change in a toenail’s color, is often considered nothing more than a mere blemish. Left untreated, however, it can present serious problems. Also referred to as onychomycosis, fungal nails are infections underneath the surface of the nail, which may also penetrate the nail. Fungal nail infections are often accompanied by a secondary bacterial and/or yeast infection in or about the nail plate, which ultimately can lead to diffi culty and pain when walking or running. Symptoms may include discoloration, brittleness, loosening, thickening, or crumbling of the nail. A group of fungi, called dermophytes, easily attack the nail and thrive on keratin, the nail’s protein substance. In some cases, when these tiny organisms take hold, the nail may become thicker, yellowish-brown, or darker in color, and foul smelling. Debris may collect beneath the nail plate, white marks frequently appear on the nail plate, and the infection is capable of spreading to other toenails, the skin, or even the fi ngernails. Nail bed injury may make the nail more susceptible to all types of infection, including

fungal infection. Those who suffer chronic diseases, such as diabetes, circulatory problems, or immune-defi ciency conditions, are especially prone to fungal nails. Other contributory factors may be a history of Athlete’s Foot or excessive perspiration. Our treatment protocol is that we treat all 10 toes due to fungus being in the shoes and socks and transferring back and forth as it usually starts in 1 or 2 toes and spreads to the others. The treatment is approx. 35 minutes. The treatment is comfortable not painful.Call for a free brochure - we are happy to email one to you.

As we approach November’s municipal

election, it is important that we start preparing. While the process of voting and casting your ballot may only take a few minutes, the actual process of making an informed decision of choosing your desired candidates to lead the city for the next four years should be an educated and extensive one of research and reflection. The candidates you choose for mayor, councillors and school board trustees should reflect your values and the direction in which you wish to see your city go.

It seems that often the time and effort required for a well-

functioning democracy is underestimated. Democracy depends on the true engagement and involvement of individuals like you and I. This can be reflected

through the questions that we ask of our candidates and the research that we do on critical issues affecting our community.

Participating in the democratic process allows us to make our voice heard.

Over the coming weeks, new candidates will be announced, and some have already stated their intention to run. We should analyze their positions and proposals in-depth. On election day, we should select the name on the ballot based on who we

think can help our city progress.

Furthermore, we should continue to exercise our political engagement even after we have cast our ballots, so that we can hold our elected officials accountable for the promises that they made prior to being elected.

So, as this municipal election, and then the federal election in 2015, arrives, let’s all commit to learning about what is important to us.

I would suggest discussing political matters with family and friends and making this conversation a part of your dinner-table talk. You can also infuse the political and civic spirit in youth by discussing these topics with your children.

Not only will you gain an insight into the mind of a future voter and leader, but this will also help your children

express their political viewpoints in an open environment.

It is vital that political and social issues are discussed in one’s home so that they are not seen in an isolated manner or in a context where they are separated from our everyday life.

While social media has its many benefits, let’s also discuss these issues in person so that we can fully understand the human element behind politics and government, and emphasize the idea that the political process is ultimately meant to help create a brighter future for our cities, provinces and countries.

We must all realize the significance of the coming election and apply ourselves to the task of choosing our political leaders with energy and knowledge. After all, the future of our city depends on it. It

is easy to forget among the campaigning and various other events going on during election time that ultimately

it is us, the electorate, that must make the important decision about who we wish to choose.

Pumpkin Run set

It’s time to dust off costumes – or search for a new one – as the Peninsula prepares for the Great Pumpkin Run Walk.

The Peace Arch Hos-pital and Community Health Foundation’s annual fundraiser is set for Oct. 26 and will benefit the building of a new emergency room at the hospital.

For the eighth year in a row, residents are invited to sign up for the walk/run, don a zany costume and sup-port the hospital.

This year, the foun-dation aims to raise $100,000 and register more than 1,000 par-ticipants for the 5K and 1K distances – which are accessible for wheelchairs and stroll-ers.

Prizes will also be another feature at the fundraiser for first-place finishes, top fun-draisers, best costumes and other incentive prizes for participants who raise at least $100 or $50, respectively.

There is an early bird draw for those who reg-ister by Sept. 12.

The deadline for reg-istration is Oct. 25 at noon.

THE 100TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE WHITE ROCK PIER

Built with federal funds, the Pier opened in 1914 as a 628

feet long dock for coastal steamships. This coincided with

the arrival of the Great Northern Railway. After adding

another 983 feet, the White Rock Pier offi cially re-opened in

1915 making it the longest pier in Canada at 1,611 feet long.

Its primary function was, then as it is now, to serve as a

tourist facility for pleasure boats, for a promenade, and for

fi shing and swimming. Since its construction it has acted

as the focus for White Rock’s summer tourist activities.

Today, the White Rock Pier is one of the city’s major tourist

attractions. It’s also one of the area’s most-photographed

landmarks.

40TH ANNIVERSARY OF SEMIAHMOO ARTS

Semiahmoo Arts began as the Community Arts Council

of White Rock & District in 1974 as an umbrella arts

organization dedicated to supporting the arts community

in White Rock and the area of South Surrey. In 2011, the

Arts Council rebranded as Semiahmoo Arts refl ecting

the geographic area that it serves on the Semiahmoo

Peninsula.

The Council facilitates collaborative cultural endeavors

and supports artists in a variety of creative disciplines. From

arts advocacy to mentorship, the Arts Council is an active

and pro-active team working to foster a thriving and diverse

art community.

Semiahmoo Arts is dedicated to arts advocacy in White

Rock, South Surrey and Semiahmoo First Nation. The Arts

Council operates two facilities, one in Centennial Part

and the new arts wing at the South Surrey Recreation

& Arts Centre. It provides arts programming, facilitates

collaborative cultural endeavours and supports artists in a

variety of creative disciplines.

If you would like to learn more about Semiahmoo Arts, or

would like to know how you could support their endeavors

through membership, sponsorship or volunteerism, visit

THIS IS THE LIFEWhitecliff celebrates 25 years

Whitecliff photosTop: Residents at Whitecliff celebrated the retirement residence’s 25th anniversary with a “Brunch at Tiffany’s,” featuring tributes to actress Audrey Hepburn and turquoise baked goods. Left: Decked out in pearl necklaces, Whitecliff staff welcome residents to the glamorous event last week.

TThe 25th anniversary of Whitecliff retirement residence was celebrated by residents,

staff and the White Rock community last week.

A “Brunch at Tiffany’s” event, featuring the glitz-and-glam of actress Audrey Hepburn, kicked off the week. Residents and staff wore pearls, elegant gloves and high-style clothing to celebrate the iconic era.

Even the food, featuring small turquoise cakes in the shape of boxes decorated with fancy bows, exemplified the popular early-1960s movie Breakfast at Tiffany’s, starring Hepburn as a young New York socialite.

Then on Wednesday, emergency first responders in the community were honoured with a Western-themed barbecue.

“It was an opportunity to thank them for all they do for us in White Rock,” says Christopher Mis, executive director of Whitecliff Retirement Living.

“These people put their lives on the line for the White Rock community every day, and we are very thankful.”

On Friday, the anniversary celebrations wound down with Whitecliff’s Champagne Reception. With glasses of champagne in hand, the audience listened to a speech by a long-term resident who talked about his memories of Whitecliff and the exciting future he sees for the retirement residence.

Delicious food and drinks,

prepared by Whitecliff’s chef, were served, including tiger shrimp and other tasty appetizers.

Whitecliff Retirement Living, which was recently renovated, is located on three acres of land in the heart of White Rock. For more information, or to book a tour, call 604-538-7227 or visit www.reveraliving.com/whitecliff

THIS IS THE LIFE


Hope for Osteoarthritis: Cold Laser TherapyCold Laser Therapy (often also called Low Intensity Laser Therapy or Low Level Laser Therapy) is an innovative treatment for osteoarthritis and several other – often painful – conditions.

Laser light transfers energy to interior cells• Stimulates natural healing• Restores normal cellular structure and function• Prevents future injury

What you will experience:• Pain goes away• Reduced infl ammation/swelling• Restored mobility

Why Cold Laser?• Healing, not just masking of pain• Safe, drug free & no side eff ects• Avoid or delay the need for surgery• Accelerate and strengthen the body’s natural healing mechanisms

The Concept Behind Cold Laser TherapyThe healing power of lightThe concept of Cold Laser Therapy is actually quite simple. As humans, light plays a very important role in our existence. Similar to how plant cells require light for photosynthesis, our cells need light to power many of the normal processes that keep us healthy and happy. As long as we are exposed to enough regular sunlight, our skin absorbs the light we need and our cells can use it for many of their normal functions. If our cells are working normally, then our bodies are able to withstand diff erent stresses from day to day activities and heal various ailments.Light therapy is not a new concept. It has been and continues to be used by doctors to treat a wide variety of conditions. For exam-ple, light has shown to be eff ective for treating many skin conditions including psoriasis and acne, depression and even tuberculosis before there were medications. Most people who suff er from arthritis can attest to the fact that their pain usually reduces or even completely subsides during the summer months or on a vacation to a sunny destination.Vitamin D, critical for keeping our bones healthy and strong, is created in our bod-ies by a process that requires sunlight. In places where there isn’t much sunlight available year round, people are usually encouraged to take vitamin D supple-ments during the darker months to help support their bones and prevent against bone-softening conditions such as rickets (in children) or osteoporosis.When we experience pain or infl ammation from a problem or injury in an area of our body, the normal cellular processes slow down and our body has trouble heal-ing as a result. Blood fl ow to these areas also gets interrupted, which restricts the ability of important nutrients to be delivered to the cells that need to heal.The scienceScientifi c research conducted over the last few decades has shown that human cells heal better and faster when the right wavelengths of light energy get delivered to them.Cold Laser Therapy is a breakthrough solution for osteoarthritis pain because it shines a concentrated amount of most helpful wavelengths of light vital for healing (in the red and infrared parts of the spectrum) directly on aff ected areas. This allows the cartilage, bones and surrounding infl amed tissues to be exposed to the healthy light that otherwise would not reach these areas. By delivering just the helpful parts of the light spectrum, the overall laser light power can be kept at very low and therefore very safe levels, which will not burn or otherwise harm the skin or any other tissues. How Does Cold Laser Therapy Work?Cold Laser Therapy delivers light based energy to cells, helping to accelerate the body’s natural healing process at the cellular level. It targets injured cells, resulting in elimination and prevention of pain, reduction of infl ammation and swelling, and improved range of motion. Laser therapy does not just mask the pain, it actively stimulates healing to resolve musculoskeletal conditions for the long term.The Biofl ex Cold Laser Therapy system is a three step process, each using a diff erent wavelength of light which has been found to optimally stimulate your body’s cells. The fi rst step uses a red light pad at 660 nm, which gets absorbed by the cells of the skin and underlying superfi cial layers of mus-cle. The second step uses an infrared light pad at 830 nm, reaching deeper into the muscle layers, as well as the tendons and ligaments. The third step includes an infrared laser wand at 840 nm that is placed specifi cally on the aff ected areas by a trained laser therapist. This light is very con-centrated and targets the deepest aff ected structures, stimulating healing inside aff ected joints and even bone.

Mrs. M. tries Cold Laser Therapy for her Knee PainMrs. M. suff ered from ever more debilitating levels of pain in both of her knees for a long time, caused by the increasingly common condition of osteoarthritis. She was having great diffi culty walking for longer periods of time or going up and down stairs. Sleeping through the night had become a problem, because the pain would wake her. Even simple movements like getting up after having been seated for a while (watching television or having dinner) had become extremely painful. It came to be normal for her to rely on painkillers to help her function on a day to day basis.

Over the years, she had undertaken numerous therapies and treatments to stem the tide of ever increasing pain without much success. Even full knee replacement surgery on her left knee only helped to a degree, leaving her with discomfort in the replaced knee even well after the expected post surgical healing time.

When Mrs. M. fi rst visited us at Solaj Wellness Centre, she enquired about Cold Laser Therapy and was wondering if the treatments might help in reducing the pain in her right knee, and maybe even prevent the need for knee replacement surgery in the future. After fi nding out some more details about Cold Laser Therapy, she decided that it was well worth her time and money to give this treatment a try. In her thinking, the upside of avoiding much more invasive and therefore risky surgery was signifi cant and as she had found out on her other knee, replacement surgery wasn’t a guaranteed full success either.

After the fi rst four treatment sessions, Mrs. M. was experiencing signifi cantly less discomfort in her knee and she could fi nally sleep throughout the night without being woken up by pain. And after just two weeks of treatment sessions, she stopped taking pain medication altogether. Having had to take painkillers on a daily basis for years and putting up with their unpleasant side eff ects, being able to discontinue her daily painkiller regimen was another true milestone moment for her.

As she continued her treatments, Mrs. M.’s knee continued to show meaningful improvement. Now she was able to take longer walks with her husband along the beach. And she even started to ride the recumbent bike to help regain the strength in her knee. After 15 treatments over an 8 week period, Mrs. M. was able to stop her treatments. She had virtually no knee pain, had continued to stay off pain medication and was able to become more active than she had been in years.

When Mrs. M. came back to Solaj two months after her last treatment for a check-up and “refresher” treatment (commonly suggested for those with signifi cant arthritis), she continued to have no pain in her knee and she has been able to keep up with her new, increased level of physical activity.

A little while later, we received this email from Mrs. M:A little while later, we received this email from Mrs. M:

“I had become very despondent after a number of years with extremely painful

arthritic knees. One arthroscopic procedure and one complete knee replacement

later I continued to deal with one extremely painful arthritic knee that did not

require replacing and remained dependent on prescription pain medication in

order to function on a very basic level.

Then I read an article in our local paper submitted by the Solaj Wellness Centre

about Cold Laser Therapy. The main point I took from the article was that it would

relieve pain and alleviate the need for pain medication. I was willing to try anything

that might achieve that goal.

I met with Dr. Melanie Rapoport of the Solaj Wellness Centre for a consultation.

After our discussion there was no question I was going to give the laser therapy

a try and Dr. Mel began my treatment immediately. After only two weeks of

treatment I could function without any pain medication although there was still

some discomfort in the knee. I continued my course of treatment as prescribed by

Dr. Mel and at eight weeks was completely pain free and able to function normally

and am no longer dependent on medication in order to function.

I would recommend anyone that is suff ering with pain to defi nitely utilize Cold

Laser Therapy. It certainly worked for me.”

Independence is key

File photoResidents at Pacific Carlton in White Rock enjoy gardening in raised flower beds, which eliminate the need to kneel on the ground.

Independence is an important component of aging at Sunnyside Manor and Pacific Carlton, two retirement residences located

in the heart of White Rock.Being close to amenities, such as banks,

cafés and Semiahmoo Shopping Centre, gives residents the freedom to conduct many of their own affairs.

Sunnyside Manor, an assisted-living residence, is designed to be warm and

inviting in an English manor-style setting. The goal is to make residents feel like they

are at home, but with the additional support they require.

Keeping active and socializing with other residents are important aspects in both retirement residences. At Sunnyside Manor, there is a picturesque courtyard with a gazebo and sitting area.

Over at Pacific Carlton, there are raised garden boxes so residents can plant their flowers without kneeling, and the new five-foot fish tank in the lobby has quickly become a gathering spot among those who live there.

“Both residences have a homey feeling. It’s good to be around people who are like-minded,” says Samantha Wright, general manager of Pacific Carlton Retirement Community, where multiple choices in the “elegant, but not too stuffy” dining room help foster independence among residents.

“Residents get to choose from four dishes for dinner. And we have great food, just like you would cook at home,” says Wright, adding residents have the chance to enjoy favourite meals, while discovering new ones.

Pacific Carlton’s spacious suites – the largest in B.C. – with in-suite laundry help residents maintain their

self-sufficiency.“I had a lady who lives here tell me,

‘this is why I’m here.’ Being able to do her own laundry in her own unit meant a lot to her,” says Wright.

The retirement residence, including the resort-like lobby, is designed to feel relaxed and cozy with high ceilings and warm wood tones.Both Sunnyside Manor and Pacific Carlton have suites with fireplaces, creating a welcoming, home-like atmosphere. Being pet-friendly is another important perk residents enjoy.

As for staying active, both retirement residences offer activities including group exercise classes, movie nights, card games, as well as bus service to malls, parks and restaurants.

sports…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula

Nick GreenizanSports Reporter

South Surrey baseball player Claire Eccles is having quite a week.

First, the 16-year-old Peninsula native helped lead Team BC to a bronze medal at the 2014 Senior Women Invitational Championships, which were held in Whalley Aug. 14-18.

Then, after the tournament’s medal ceremony, Eccles was one of two B.C. players – 21-year-old Nikki Boyd of Whalley being the other – who were named to Canada’s national team. The Canadian squad left Friday

afternoon for the Women’s Baseball World Cup, which is set to run beginning this weekend in Miyazaki, Japan.

In addition to Eccles and

Boyd, other Surrey players on Team BC were Paige McDonnell, Sydney Brown, Katelyn Bedwell, Maryse Garcia and Marina DeAngelis.

Eccles – who also plays softball with the White Rock Renegades ’97 – will, without question, be among the youngest players in the World Cup, if not the youngest, but if her performance in Whalley is any indication, she won’t be overwhelmed by the experience.

At the senior women invitational, Eccles – who pitches and plays in the outfield – finished with two wins, an earned-run average of 0.00 and nine strikeouts in seven and two-thirds of an inning. She was on the mound when B.C. defeated Quebec 1-0 in the third-place tilt.

In the semifinals, B.C. lost 4-3 to Alberta.

Eccles was no slouch at the plate, either, hitting in the No. 2 spot in B.C.’s order. She finished 3-for-6, with a double, triple and four

runs-batted-in. She also walked 11 times to lead the tournament, and her .823 on-base percentage was tops among 125 players in the event.

“It’s a little nerve-wracking sometimes – a lot of these girls are

10 years older than me and have played for a long time. I’m usually pretty nervous before (a game) but then I get out there and it’s fine,” said Eccles, from a Guildford-area hotel she was staying at with her national teammates, before

heading to the airport. Eccles said while she was

somewhat surprised to make the national team, she “thought she performed pretty well” in Whalley, where national-team brass were scouting for players.

“I was just really excited at first, when I heard I’d made it,” she said. “But then I realized I had to pack really quick and get ready to leave, so it all happened really fast.”

Since taking to the ball diamond as a youngster, Eccles has continued to play both softball and baseball; this past spring she played midget AA baseball for White Rock-South Surrey in addition to suiting up for the Renegades.

And while the basics of both games are generally the same, there are adjustments that need to be made, she said.

“Pitching is different, the size of the fields, the ball… but playing both sports has helped me, I think,” she said.

“I think I’m a better softball player because I’ve played baseball.”

The World Cup runs from Sept. 1-7. In addition to Canada, other teams taking part are the United States, Japan, Australia, Venezuela, Chinese-Taipei, the Netherlands and Hong Kong.

Tyler Soy returned home from the Memorial of Ivan Hlinka U18 international hockey tournament with a gold medal.

The Cloverdale native played for Canada’s national team at the eight-team competition staged in Slovakia and the Czech Republic Aug. 12-16.

Canada won all five games played, claiming the gold medal

in the tournament final on the tournament’s last day.

A forward with the Victoria Royals of the Western Hockey League (WHL), Soy tallied twice and assisted on four other goals in five games played. He got at least one point in four of the five games Canada played, but was on the scoresheet in every game. He took his only penalty

of the tournament, a delay of game minor, in the gold-medal contest.

Soy completed his first full season in the WHL last spring, tallying 15 goals and 30 points in 65 games played. He went back to Victoria last week, in time to report for the Royals’ training camp.

Peace Arch News Tuesday, August 26, 2014 www.peacearchnews.com 29

It is with sadness we announce the sudden but peaceful passing of Elsie Moon. Left to celebrate

a life well lived and to cherish her memory are her Daughter

Pamela Moon and husband Kevin Kerwin, brothers Bill (Irene) Palmer,

Len (Ina) Palmer, sister in law Diane (Ron) Bruce, and brother in law Robert

( Barbara ) Moon, as well as Her sweet heart Harvey Kuzmaniuk and her lifelong friend Evelyn Loree. Elsie had very special relationships with her many cousins, nieces and nephews and cultivated lasting and close friendship across the country which she cherished and nurtured. She also embraced her children’s friends as family and their children and was fortunate to be loved and called Grandma Moon by Sophie and Jake. Elsie was predeceased by her Husband Daniel C Moon, beloved son Daniel Jody; her brother, Jack Palmer and his wife Audrey. Raised on a farm in Grandview, Manitoba, Mom was taught the beauty and miracle of nature, all things practical, how things worked, to play many musical instruments, square dancing and the appreciation of life’s simple pleasures. Valedictorian of both high school and her 1958 graduating class of the Dauphin School of Nursing, Mom had a very keen mind and a thirst for knowledge which never waned. Elsie married Danny in 1959 and they created a life that took them from coast to coast and many places in between. Where ever she hung her hat she would create home for her family, a good life, friendships, and always a garden. Her many talents and interests included playing and listening to music , dancing , canoeing , volunteering , birding , gardening, camping , curling , traveling to name only a few as she was an adventuress and always “game” to try something new. She found joy in the little things, peace in nature, a strong love and pride of her country. She had a personality with a gravitational pull and had an amazing sense of humour, she loved to laugh; she was a good listener, wise, kind and generous. The family would like to send a special thank you to Dr E. Shukin, Petra, for the amazing care and friendship given to Elsie (Nurse Next Door), to her friends and neighbours in her beautiful community who always care and look out for each other Elsie’s wishes were that her remains are to be with scattered at the Lake of the Woods to be with her son and husband. In lieu of fl owers a donation can be made in Elsie’s memory to the White Rock and Surrey Naturalist Society: P.O. Box 75044, RPO White Rock, Surrey BC, V4A 0B1. Condolences may be offered at www.victoryfuneralcentre.ca
