SURREY – The buzz in thiselection campaign is all aboutusing social media to reach vot-ers, but is it working?
A recent Ipsos Reid poll foundjust six per cent of Canada’sadult population is logging on tosites like Facebook and Twitter,or traditional media websites, ona daily basis to discuss politics.
There’s potential for growthsince 21 per cent of those sur-
veyed said they visit such sitesweekly, but there’s still a longway to go before social network-ing sites become mainstream pol-itical tools.
Perhaps surprisingly, sincesocial media is generally viewedas the preserve of youth, the sur-vey found nearly twice as manyCanadian voters middle aged andolder connect to such sites to dis-cuss politics on a daily basis thando their younger counterparts.
So what do politicians have todo to reach voters online?
Emily Jubenvill speaks for GetYour Vote On, a Vancouver-based organization dedicatedto persuading Canadians 18 to34 years of age to vote. She’s24 and passionate about theissue. Jubenvill believes socialmedia can play a crucial role inengaging youth in the politicalprocess and although her focusis on youth, what she had to sayabout creating effective onlinecampaigns applies to all votersno matter what their age.

“I’m not a social media expert, but Itweet and I have a Facebook page, soit’s part of my daily life. I think socialmedia has the power to influence, butthe parties aren’t doing a good job ofusing them.”
Jubenvill described most of the tweetsand Facebook entries put up by pol-iticians and their campaign teams asboring and out of touch with youngerCanadians. Basically, she said, candi-dates don’t get it.
“It’s 100 per cent, absolutely aboutrelationships. Until you build those rela-tionships – earn that street cred – youcan’t capture the interest of voters.”
Jubenvill was quick to point outbuilding relationships with votersrequires more than a five- or six-week online blitz during an electioncampaign; the relationship has to beongoing and honest.
“Now would be a good time for theparties to start building social mediarelationships for the next election,”Jubenvill said.
She also thinks politicians should usesocial media to create more personalone-on-one connections if they hope toattract support from youth.
Those elected can use the media totell people what they’re doing for theirconstituents.
“If you’re doing good work in theconstituency, it’s about telling that story.If you’re going to run in the next elec-tion, start now finding out what peoplecare about.”
Larry Colero is the Green candidatein South Surrey-White Rock-Cloverdalewho uses social networks – mainlyTwitter and Youtube – to offset a smallcampaign budget.
He uses them not only to connectwith voters, but also to keep track ofissues and other candidates.
Colero posts video clips from all-candidates meetings that show himresponding to questions on particularissues.
“If people want to hear where I standon an issue, they can go to Youtubeand hear what I have to say. I also getinvolved with organizations like GetYou Vote On and others, special interestgroups, who survey candidates on spe-cific issues, then post their responses ontheir sites.”
Colero puts considerable time intoanswering email questions from mem-bers of various groups because heunderstands the value of one-on-onecommunication.
“I divide my time between that anddoor knocking. You can influence awhole block of voters at one time on thesurvey sites. It’s not as good as face-to-face, but I can’t get to 80,000 people inperson.”
The festival closed 54 intersections inthe Newton neighbourhood along theparade route and featured more than2,500 participants representing 20 com-munity organizations.
The parade included floats by theGurdwara Sahib Dasmesh DarbarTemple, schools, and the SikhMotorcycle Club.
Members of the various branches of
the Canadian Armed Forces marched inthe parade, which began with a specialwreath laying ceremony on the main floatto honour those have served and con-tinue to serve.
The festivities included numerous per-formances including local bhangra teamsand singers.
Politicians descended upon the cele-bration site, including B.C. PremierChristy Clark.
The celebrants indulged in Indian
delicacies served at the temple groundsand along the parade route, enjoyingtasty treats such samosas and pakoras.Hundreds of community organizationsand businesses handed out free food anddrink along the route, an important trad-ition of the celebration.
Afterwards, in a symbolic gesture ofthe Vaisakhi season of renewal, the parti-ers and event volunteers cleaned up thestreets.

Protesters pitch tents to blockDELTA – A small
encampment has sprungup along River Roadto send a big message to the provincialLiberal government that it should axethe South Fraser Perimeter Road projectinstead of chopping down more trees.
In recent weeks great swaths of foresthave been cut from the hillside betweenGunderson Slough and the Alex FraserBridge to make way for the four-laneexpressway.
In response, roughly 35 environmentalactivists have set up their “Stop the Pave”tent village to block continuing work onthe freeway.
They arrived on Friday (Earth Day) andpitched camp not far from the historicGlenrose Cannery, next to one of the old-est Coast Salish archaeological sites inB.C.
At the Now’s press time Monday after-noon the campers were planning to handout pamphlets to the project’s equipmentoperators when they return to work today(Tuesday), calling on them to halt con-struction. “The company that you work foris being contracted to destroy an import-ant ecological hillside,” the handbill states.
It also notes that “hundreds of familieshave already lost their homes along thisplanned truck route... we know that youwant your children to inherit a livableworld just like us.”
Camper Christine Leclerc, fromVancouver, warmed herself by a small fireMonday while her companion William
“last name not provided” strummed hisguitar.
“There are rippling effects from thedecisions that we make and I’m notsure how far people think we can keepchopping down hillsides and buildingmore roads before it all collapses on us,”William told the Now.
“If they have any love for their childrenor their grandchildren, then they’ll thinkabout that. If we screw it up today wehave nothing left for tomorrow, and it’sour own damn fault.”
Vancouver resident David Beattie, whohad been busy peeling potatoes, notedthat for “about a decade” the concerns ofpeople opposed to the $1.2-billion project“have been relentlessly swept aside, sweptaside.
“So eventually when it gets to the elev-enth hour, and you have your back to thewall, what other option is there other thanto lie in front of a bulldozer, if you feelthat strongly about it?” he asked.
The South Fraser Perimeter Road isscheduled to be completed in 2013 andwill connect with highways 1, 15, 17, 91,99 and the Golden Ears Bridge.
It will run about 40 kilometres fromDeltaPort Way in South Delta to 176thStreet in Surrey’s Port Kells, hugging theFraser River shoreline for a large part ofthe route. Seven environmentally sensitivestreams are in its way.
The government has expropriated manyhomes to make way for the highway– roughly 75 in the historic North Delta

17 AVENUE & 146 STREETREVERSAL OF STOPPING DIRECTIONThe City of Surrey is planning some changes at the intersection of 17 Avenue and146 Street. Presently, traffic on 17 Avenue must stop for traffic on 146 Street. Trafficanalysis has shown that the volume of traffic on 17 Avenue significantly exceeds thetraffic volume on 146 Street. It is safer for those streets with lower volumes to berequired to stop. For that reason, the stopping direction will be reversed so that trafficon 146 Street will be required to stop.
To maintain safety and minimize driver confusion, the changeover will be undertaken in3 phases:
Phase 1 Notification Signage Erected April 18, 2011
Phase 2 Temporary All-Way Stop May 2 - June 1, 2011
Phase 3 Removal of 17 Avenue Stop Signs June 1, 2011
Additional signage and pavement markings will be installed before and during thechangeover.
This analysis was done as part of a pilot project for cycling Neighbourhood Routes,which are routes through local roads connecting neighbourhoods through Surrey. Thepilot project connects the Semiahmoo area to Ocean Park. 17 Avenue at 146 Street ispart of this east-west route, which will be facilitated by the inversion of the stoppingdirection as well.
Please use extra care at this intersection as people get used to the changes and newoperation.
For more information, please contact the City at 604-591-4853 or [email protected].

South Fraser Perimeter Road
community of Sunbury alone.Sgt. Sharlene Brooks, of the Delta
police, said the police have “had officersmonitoring that situation” and have “anoperational plan in place.”
“It’s been very peaceful,” she saidMonday. “Of course, we understand andappreciate not everyone supports theSouth Fraser Perimeter Road expansionproject and they have every right to pro-test. Obviously, everybody is due to returnto work (today, Tuesday) and if the pro-test continues, then further options willhave to be explored and considered by
the landowner, by way of either a courtinjunction or what have you. There maybe other options available to them.”
Tom Jaugelis, who lives about five min-utes away from the camp, said that whilethe campers realize an injunction is a veryreal possibility, the government and policehave so far taken a “hands off approach.”
“It seems like they’re really wanting toavoid conflict, wanting to avoid giving usthe spotlight,” Jaugelis said. “It seems tome they might actually try to ignore us,and wait us out.”

Candidate says queue-jumpingcaused by Tory cutbacks
SURREY – AConservative plan to deportforeign nationals who marryCanadians to jump the immi-gration queue is wrong-headed, accord-ing to the NDP candidate in Fleetwood-Port Kells.
“The whole issue of fake marriagesstems from the fact that Canada has abroken process,” Nao Fernando said.
“It’s a problem created by theConservatives. They cut $53 millionfrom settlement services in December.Organizations like PICS (ProgressiveIntercultural Community Services) andSUCCESS have had their funds cut.”
Fernando said immigration and refu-gee boards are underfunded and thebacklog of immigration applicationsmeans people wait for years to find outif they can come to Canada. Many, hesaid, become desperate and resort totactics like marriages of convenience tobypass the delay.
Immigration Minister Jason Kennyannounced last week a re-electedConservative government would putforeigners who marry Canadians on athree-year probation. If the marriagefailed within those three years, the for-eign national could be deported.
Fernando said that’s unfair and called
on the government to restore funding tothe system.
Fleetwood-Port Kells incumbent,Conservative MP Nina Grewal, did notrespond to requests for comment.
Aditya Mohan is a spokesman for theSouth Asian Immigration and MarriageFraud Victims Society. Mohan said he isthe author of the Conservative scheme.
“That was my suggestion to him(Kenny) which he accepted. I madethe suggestion to him in September orOctober last year. We said they shouldput a three-year probation. If the mar-riage fails and there is reason to believeit’s a marriage of convenience, theyshould be deported.”
Mohan said Kenny has not adoptedthe second part of his idea to combatmarriage fraud. That would exclude theCanadian spouse in a fraudulent mar-riage from sponsoring anyone else forthree years.
Like Fernando, Mohan also wantsthe government to put more money intoimmigration services to reduce the back-log.
“I have suggested instead of spending$30 billion on fighter jets, they spend itin Canada. This is a peaceful nation, wedon’t need more fighter jets.”

Family furious cop still beingpaid two years after fatal crash
DELTA – The family ofOrion Hutchinson is upsetthe RCMP officer charged inthe crash that took his liferemains suspended with pay more thantwo years later.
Hutchinson, 21, died on Oct. 25, 2008after the motorcycle he was driving col-lided with a Jeep driven by Cpl. BenjaminMonty Robinson.
Robinson, who was off duty at the time,is facing a charge of attempting to obstructjustice. At a preliminary inquiry last week,a Surrey Provincial Court judge deemedthere is enough evidence to go to trial.
The officer was suspended with payfollowing the incident. While the familyis relieved Robinson will face trial, JudithHutchinson, Orion’s mother, said theyhave a hard time dealing with the fact hehas remained suspended with pay.
“While we have endured the aftermathof this tragedy, my daughter and I havealso battled to maintain the rest of ourlives, working in spite of grief and traumato keep a roof over our heads and to carryon as best we can,” Judith Hutchinsonsaid in an e-mail to the Optimist, a sisterpaper to the Now.
“In light of this, we find it utterlyincomprehensible that the accused hasbeen on a paid vacation of sorts for thepast two-and-a-half years, suspended withfull pay and benefits.”
In the fall of 2009, the grieving motherenquired about the officer’s status withthe RCMP. She said she was told thatonce criminal charges were laid, a reviewprocess would take place and the officer’ssuspended with pay status would bereconsidered.
The attempt to obstruct justice chargeagainst Robinson was announced inDecember 2009.
“Since that time, every subsequentenquiry we have made to the RCMP hasmet with the same response - his statusremains unchanged,” Judith Hutchinsonsaid. “We have been given no explana-tion for this. Now a preliminary hearinghas determined that a trial will take place.Will the accused officer still continue tobe on the RCMP payroll?”
Sgt. Rob Vermeulen, a B.C. RCMPmedia relations officer, said Wednesday hecould only confirm that Robinson remainssuspended with pay.
According to the national RCMP web-site, officers are only suspended withoutpay “in extreme cases when it would beinappropriate to pay a member.”
Incidents are evaluated on a case-by-case basis and suspension without pay isconsidered in a few instances, includingwhen an officer is in jail awaiting trial andif an officer is clearly involved in an actthat contravenes an act of Parliament orthe RCMP’s code of conduct.

Point
Provincialpolitics usuallytrump the fed-eral kind whenit comes to hold-ing the interestof most BritishColumbians, butI suspect theupcoming feder-al election is going to prove to bemore fascinating than recent ones.
This province has 36 rid-ings, and the electoral result inmost of them is known about aminute after the polls close. TheConservatives should win 14 rid-ings quite easily, while the NDPappears to have a lock on eightseats.
In some of the ridings, theConservatives win by such massivenumbers one gets the impressionthe party could run house pets ascandidates and still win (the sameholds true with the NDP strong-hold of Vancouver East).
Many federal Conservative MPswho win by huge margins lackany kind of public profile. (Whenwas the last time you heard aboutMark Warawa in Langley, Ed Fastin Abbotsford, Ron Cannan inKelowna or Colin Mayes in theOkanagan for example?)
To be fair, the lot of a govern-ment backbencher is an anony-mous one, but the fact is the MPsI just named win three or evenfour times the votes of their near-est opponent.
So these ridings lack any kindof drama on election night. Butthere are more than a dozen or soridings where things may get veryinteresting as the night progressesand a number of them are likely tochange hands when it’s all over.
If the current polls are correct– they suggest the federal Liberalvote is collapsing – then the seatsto keep the closest eye on are thefive currently held by that party.
That includes the three seatsin Vancouver, one in Surrey and
Federal votea lot moreinterestingfor B.C. thistime around

the Vancouver Island seat ofEsquimalt-Juan de Fuca.
The Conservatives, having runsecond in all of those seats in2008, are the logical favourites toreap the benefits of even a smallcollapse in Liberal votes in thoseridings. The one exception may bethe riding of Vancouver Centre,where long-time Liberal MP HedyFry has been counted out before,but who always seems to emergevictorious.
Other seats with uncertainoutcomes include Surrey North,where the NDP has targeted thenear-invisible Conservative MPDona Cadman for defeat, Newton-North Delta, where the Liberalswill be hard-pressed to hold theseat, and Saanich-Gulf Islands,where federal Green leaderElizabeth May is trying to win aseat.
May is facing longtimeConservative MP Gary Lunn, whohas a formidable election machinein his riding. There is a miscon-ception that the Gulf Islands isGreen-friendly territory, based onthe assumption there must be abunch of tie-dyed tree huggers liv-ing there.
There are a few, but there alot more retired doctors, lawyersand dentists there who ensure theConservatives win every poll on
the islands in every election, so itwill by a major upset if May wins.
One of the more intriguing sce-narios involves some apparentlysafe Conservative-held ridings inthe Interior and on VancouverIsland. On paper, they shouldremain in that party’s win column.
However, there are a coupleof potential factors that may turnthose races on their heads.
First of all, if there is indeed asurge in NDP popularity, that fac-tor – combined with lingering anti-government sentiment that liesbarely below the surface in thoseregions – could make these racescompetitive.
Second, a significant collapsein the Liberal vote would hurtthe Conservatives in particular, asLiberal voters would shift to theNDP.
The riding of Kootenay-Columbia, for example, should bea Conservative stronghold. Butlong-time incumbent Jim Abbotthas retired, and that area has longheld an anti-government sentiment(the Reform party used to own thisterritory, remember). This has theNDP talking about an upset vic-tory there.
There are also several ridingswhere the combined Liberal/NDPvote in 2008 was significantlyhigher than the Conservative
vote, so if enough strategic votingoccurs, some of those ridings maybe going the NDP’s way.
So how’s it all going to comeout in the end?
In the end, the Conservativesshould win 20 to 27 seats, whilethe NDP should win from nine to17 seats, and the Liberals will belucky to hang on to four of the fivethey currently hold.
Yes, B.C. politics is usually moreinteresting than the federal variety(at least in this province), but forone night at least the federal sceneshould keep our interest longerthan usual.

Maybe Christians should organize a Pentecost paradeThe Editor,
Re: “Easter deserves better,” theNow, April 22.
Thank you, columnist TomZytaruk, for expressing your dis-may in regard to the “low key”celebrations of Easter, which arede-emphasized in our culture.
My similar sentiments thoughare coming from the point ofview that there is a lot happeningin the Christian community in amultitude of churches in this com-munity.
The issue that I take is that thenewspaper and media neglect oroverlook those celebrations in ourcommunity.
The coverage in reporting theVaisakhi parade prior, during andafter was in stark contrast to anyreferences or recognition, to themultitude of scheduled ChristianEaster celebrations, (other thanindividual paid ads). There certain-ly was a noticable vacuum.
In decades past, newspaperswere very receptive to writingabout church-sponsored events.
In Maui, I noticed the localnewspaper had a full page listingall the worship times and locationsas a community service withoutneed for an individual ads.
Your example of Holy Week inGuatemala brings forth the ideathat maybe we Christians need aconcentrated effort of co-operationto hold a parade on Pentecost, asit culminates the 50 days of theEaster season.

Easter needs more gustoThe Editor,
Re: “Easter deserves better,” theNow, April 22.
It is sad the Sikhs get so muchpress on the weekend of one of themost important celebrations of theChristian calendar.
I know there were many “non-denominational” Good Friday ser-vices being held with hundreds ofattendees like there was in NorthDelta and many other commun-ities in the Lower Mainland lastweekend.
Also, most Christian Churcheswere full on Easter Sunday withpeople celebrating the resurrectionof Jesus.
I am not blaming the Sikhs, weas Christians need to “do Easterright.” Easter is not about bunniesand chocolate, but about the deathand resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Bob Wilson, Surrey
Surrey does politics rightThe Editor,
While watching the acrimoni-ous advertising being heaped onfederal opponents by both theLiberals and Conservatives, I wasreminded of the formerly fractiousnature of our municipal govern-ment in Surrey.
I thought, therefore, that itwould be appropriate to pass along
some praise for the current mayorand council. I truly appreciate thethoughtful manner with whichour city government goes about itsbusiness.
It seems that each bylaw andorder in council is carefully con-sidered and that reason ratherthan politics rules the day. What aconcept!
Not only that, all members ofcouncil are now being utilized inareas of strength. From MarvinHunt to Judy Villeneuve to BobBose, experience and ability nowmeans more than political bias.
So, kudos to Mayor DianneWatts for finding the commonthread that allows our council tofunction so efficiently and equalkudos to Surrey’s councillors forputting aside their differences towork for the common good.
Harvey Ostroff, Surrey
Staub’s ad was hilariousThe Editor,
I thought you had created anew editorial cartoon page when Isaw your newspaper on Friday.
The parody of an electionad by Hardy Staub was hilari-ous. The concept that Hardy, aConservative until three weeksbefore the election and now run-ning for the Liberals, warning thata vote for anyone but him was avote for the Conservatives was ahoot.
You’ve got to get him to send inmore of that kind of humour.
Bill Johnston, Surrey
Cop’s lawsuit is disgustingThe Editor,
Re: “Mountie hurt in brouhahaduring Canucks celebration onScott Road sues RCMP,” the Now,April 22.
I am stunned by the news thatan RCMP officer is suing theRCMP and everyone else the per-son could think of because theywere injured on the job.
This appears to me to be astraightforward “money grab,”shades of the many frivolous law-suits in the U.S.
He fell on the job or was pushedand was hurt. I have never heardof any other RCMP member orhis or her family suing the RCMPbecause they were really injured orkilled.
Isn’t it in the job descriptionthat the position can be one ofconstant risk of injury or violence?
What part of the training orinformation session at the initialstages of his joining the force didhe not understand?
This is just another insult anddisgusting ulterior motive thatonce again shows disrespect forother members and all Canadiansat large.

‘Upscale’ hypocrisyThe Editor,
Re: “Sunday market hasnew ‘upscale’ vision,” theNow, April 12.
So, Cloverdale hasbecome “stagnant” andShannon Claypool andSurrey council are lookingfor something “unique.”
That’s strange, becausethey just destroyed uniqueCloverdale and the cityof parks, the beaver andantique stores, the rodeo,the racetrack, nature and
the location of Smallville.And now they want
the flea market to gotoo because it isn’t goodenough anymore for coun-cil’s “upscale” friends.

Staub acts like bullyThe Editor,
I am a veteran of theSecond World War, a sev-enth-generation Canadianand have seen a lot of pol-itical electioneering in my
90 years.I attended both recent
candidate meetings whereLiberal candidate HardyStaub came across as theplayground bully.
He took every opportun-ity to attack ConservativeMP Russ Hiebert and indoing so, he usually failedto address the questionsdirected at him.
Rarely did he discusswhat his party platformwas.
Staub is not the personI want to represent me inOttawa.
In defense of Hiebert’spast high costs, he has lis-tened to his constituents’criticisms and is now in thelowest third of B.C. MPs.
He has worked hard forus and we have benefittedby way of $100 million forcommunity projects.
J. Wright, Surrey
Tories are hypocritesThe Editor,
When the electoratevotes party line all the time,
democracy takes a nosedive.
Issues like the ones inthis election are serious.For six months prior to thiselection, the Conservativemachine painted MichaelIgnatieff as an outsiderand as a man incapable ofleading. Then they actedsurprised when an electionwas called.
What hypocrisy!Think of the millions
the Tories spent on that adcampaign in a non-electionyear.
What for? Was it for
the good of all Canadians?Who did those ads help?Whose mouths did theyfeed? What problems didthey solve? What child’slife was meaningfullyimpacted? Why?

Give Dona a breakThe Editor,
Re: “Desperately seekingDona,” the Now, April 22.
Surrey is indeed evolvingand we need respectableleadership that listens.
Fortunately, that is thecase with Dona Cadman.Speaking about evolution,when it comes to the workthat Cadman has done inher riding of Surrey North— you name it, you got it.
In Surrey, we are proudto see so many changes inour landscape, and becauseof these additions, a newcity is being born.
This is due to projectsthat Cadman helped bringto Surrey such as $10million for the new CityCentral library, $1.7 mil-lion for the Scott Roadstation expansion, and $3.4million for the WhalleyEmployment ResourceCentre.
Furthermore, she helpedto bring the RCMP ‘E’Division headquarters here,which will bring almost$300 million to the peopleof Surrey.
This is not all aboutnumbers though, ratherservices rendered, andmany more have beenfunded due to Dona’s com-mitment to the people ofSurrey.
Since elected 2008, shehas brought more than $61million back to Surrey.
Speaking about leader-ship that listens is awe-some, but there is one moreingredient missing in yourstatement, which I stronglybelieve is “action.” She isindeed a politician who hasmore “bite than bark.”
Since moving to Surreythree years ago, I have seenDona hard at work.
This is the communityleader who I have put mytrust in.
As a new immigrant, Icannot wait to be able toparticipate in Canada’sdemocracy and cast a votefor Cadman on May 2.

DELTA— Educate kidsat home or sendthem to school to mix and learnwith other students?
It’s choice that some parentsgrapple with but a program offeredby the Delta school district allowsstudents to profit from both learn-ing styles at the same time.
The Home Quest program,launched in September 2003 forstudents from Kindergarten toGrade 7, provides support for par-ents who chose alternative learn-ing for their children.
Operating out of Pinewoodelementary school in North Delta,the program is tailored to meetthe needs of children who chooseto do some learning at home andsome at school.
Program coordinator BarbStoliker describes the program as“a bridge between the two worlds— home and school partnership.”
The Home Quest program isbased in a wing at Pinewood ele-mentary. There are two classroomsand a resource room where par-ents can access provincial learningresources and other educationalmaterials.
Students in the program arefully funded by the Ministry ofEducation and are required tofollow the ministry’s educationguidelines.
Parents bring their kids to theHome Quest program one day aweek and teach them at home therest of the time.
The younger set attends classeson Wednesdays and the intermedi-ate group attends on Thursdays.
The kids might come to classweekly but Stoliker notes thatthe lessons differ from traditionalclasses by focusing strongly on“things that can be done ingroups” such as gym, art, dramaand science.
Last Wednesday, the youngones staged a play called “TheGreat Frog” as parents sat in asemi-circle to watch.
At the start of the school year,teachers devise a Student LearningPlan for each student, which isreviewed three times a year tochart progress. Portfolio meetingsare held with parents and studentsand evaluations are based on the
teacher’s assessment and informa-tion shared by the parent. Studentsget report cards the same as every-one else.
Stoliker notes that many parentsopt for the program because itallows a lot of flexibility.
“It’s very self-directed butthere’s a lot of support from certi-fied teachers,” she said.
Since the Home Quest programruns to Grade 7 only, studentstransfer to regular high schools tocomplete their Grade 12 education.
Although she has no data track-ing these transitions, Stoliker saysthey appear to go smoothly.
Shawna Kervin, a mother whohas two kids enrolled in the HomeQuest program, favours the pro-gram for a variety of reasons.
“I love that kids can spend timewith their families and learn theirvalues from their families,” saidKervin, who also has a one-year-old baby.
She also likes the flexibility. Sheusually finishes her lessons withher son and daughter by noon andthen they have the rest of the dayto do other things such as musiclessons or sports.
She dismissed suggestions thathome-schooled kids miss out onsocialization that happens in regu-lar schools.
Her daughter Amanda, 8, saysshe likes the Home Quest programand being taught by her mother.
“I think it’s good and I thinkit’s nice because I get to spendmore time with my mother and mybrother,” she said.
“It’s also nice because I don’thave to wake up so early all thetime.”
The Home Quest program ishosting an information meetingon Tuesday, May 31 at 7 p.m. atPinewood elementary school at11777 Pinewood Dr. For moreinformation call 604-597-8353 oremail [email protected].

Last week, we took the ultim-ate dream vacation – that’s right,Disneyland.
Although I’ve been twice before andhaven’t been overjoyed by the throngsof people and long lineups, I was deter-mined to make this trip different.
This time around I did my home-work. I talked with other parents andhad them share their experiences withme. I visited the Disneyland.com website and researchedthe hotels, shows and best deals throughout the year. Icalled the information line and talked about meal plan-ning, birthday plans and character breakfast meet-and-greets — all months in advance.
I wanted this time with my five-year-old daughter andeight-year-old son to be not only amazing for them, butfor me as well. Despite my griping about the crowds andwait times, there was a big part of me that wanted to besilly and feel like a child again, too. But in order to dothat, I needed to fully plan it all out.
We stayed at the Paradise Pier Hotel (one of the threeDisneyland hotels), located in the park. I liked the factthat the Disneyland hotels offer early admission to thepark for guests on certain days, and had rooms that over-looked the Disney California Adventure Park to watchthe “World of Color” water show each night (instead ofsitting in the crowds).
We were treated to balloons, rice crispy chocolatemouse ear treats and, much to my daughter’s delight,chocolates on the pillow in the room each night. Therewere activities and games arranged every day for the kids,a huge waterslide at the pool and fun dinners, includingmake-your-own pizzas and character breakfasts.
Our park-hopper tickets were waiting at the front deskfor us, as I had pre-ordered them before arriving, and wealso received 25 per cent discounts at restaurants in thepark. I learned about the fast pass, where you can get aticket and return later for the ride without long wait times(the Indiana Jones ride was my son’s favourite).
Even though it was spring break in L.A. (a fact Iadmit I missed during my research), the crowds were notreally an issue. Staff at Disneyland kept the lineups andwalkways in order. Parents were polite to one anotherand were sympathetic when little ones were having ameltdown. Everyone pitched in to be kind and courteouswhenever possible (I helped a dad when his little onesboth needed to leave the line for a pee break, and was re-paid when I was in a similar situation when my daughterwanted to leave the lineup for a picture on Dumbo).
After a day of rides, character visits and games, wewould all return to our hotel sleepy and, most of all,happy. My son celebrated his eighth birthday at the park,with lots of attention, fun and magic. I had reservationsmade at the Blue Bayou (a restaurant in the Pirates of theCaribbean ride) and gave him lots of time for rides thatnight.
We didn’t push our children when we sensed theywere tired, and we didn’t push ourselves when we knewwe hit our own limit for the day.
On the last night, as we embarked on a spaceship ridein Tomorrow Land, with fireworks overhead and the kidsstaring in awe, I knew I had finally got it right.
Disneyland is everything it claims to be. It is magical,it is special and it is fun — for both kids and adults alike.The secret is to go prepared and, if you do, you will def-initely receive the happily-ever-after ending you weresearching for.

HELPFUL ADVICE FROM LOCAL PROFESSIONALS IN YOUR NEIGHBOURHOOD
Email us with yourquestions for anyof these experts.
Is there treatment for severeconstipation?
The basic treatment for constipation is to increasedietary fiber and water consumption. When thisis not enough, we address the underlying cause ofconstipation, an overstressed and under-functioningbowel. To reduce stress on the digestive tract and re-store normal bowel function, we avoid adverse foodsreactions with either a hypoallergenic diet or by foodallergy testing and utilize a combination of supple-mental fibers and nutritional stool softeners.
For constipation that does not respond to thesedietary and nutritional treatments, we restore normalbowel function with acupuncture, more aggressivedigestive support and colon hydrotherapy. Colon Hy-drotherapy involves flushing the colon with sterilizedfiltered water which results in the removal of accumu-lated toxins and stimulation of bowel activity.

604-575-7494Weight Loss Approaches: What works?Any good weight loss program will include the following as itsfoundation:
• Control your food intake and avoid fructose-ladden or heavilyprocessed foods. Eating whole foods will ensure proper nutrientuptake without filling your body with unwanted chemicals, badfats or excess calories.
• Exercising is essential for burning calories, proper organ functionand even neural functions. It is important to address any types ofjoint pain or other discomfort that will prevent regular physicalactivities.
• Use weight loss protocols. Acupuncture is very effective insuppressing appetite, controlling cravings and stimulatingendocrine functions. EFA’s (Essential Fatty Acids) are key for ahealthy metabolism and immune system, and are usually taken asfish oils. Polyphenols, which are found in green tea or grape seedsare important. Proper waste management controls excess fluids.Supplements such as psyllium seed and bentonite will ensurehealthy and regular intestinal function. Other supplements such ascalcium pyruvate help burn fat and speed up the metabolic process.
• For weight stagnation, injectible substances such asVitamins B6,B12, Methionine or Inositol have proven to be very effective.
A combination of these will ensure that you reach a weight that isappropriate and healthy! For more information, please contact theLifelong Health clinic.

I recently had thepleasure of going into mydaughter’s kindergartenclass to discuss healthy eating with herclassmates.
There was plenty of energy and excite-ment around the room and I felt like arock star when I left. But then, smoothiesand fruit with dip are always a hit with theunder-six crowd.
Helping children understand why theirlittle bodies need healthy food can be chal-lenging and I am very careful to not demon-ize less than healthy foods lest I trigger somefood issue later in life. Developing healthyeating habits early will lead our children to
a healthier adulthood and all the grown-upsaround them have to join in the effort.
Schools around the world are wrestlingwith food policies that will enable them todeliver healthy food to children while stillbeing fiscally responsible. I have the hon-our of working with the Calgary Board ofEducation on healthy eating policies andinitiatives and it is a daunting task.
What, after all, is healthy food whenthere are so many definitions and interpreta-tions? Add in religious, health and econom-ic issues and it gets even more complicated.
For example, when I go out to talk to aschool group, I have to consider food aller-gies, intolerances and dietary restrictions if
I’m bringing a treat.So, Jell-O fingers may sound like a good
idea, but as gelatin is derived from ani-mals, I might need to find a halal or evenvegetarian option so that all the childrencan enjoy the treat and not feel left out.I also have to ensure that ingredients forthe take-home recipes are accessible to allstudents regardless of geography and eco-nomic means. If they can’t recreate it whenthey get home, then the learning is lost.
What amazes me most is how open-minded young people are; they do want totalk and learn about food.
Healthy eating doesn’t have to be dif-ficult and, as an example, I have included
our recipe for Apricot and Banana Squares(see page 15). They are a great snack for aquick pick-me-up and they freeze well.
There is oat bran, which is a goodsource of fibre and other essential nutri-ents, in this recipe. The apricots andbananas let us check off another selectionfrom Canada’s Food Guide, and the maca-damia nuts make a nice change from theubiquitous walnut-banana pairing in somany recipes.
I encourage you to have conversationswith the young people in your life abouthealthy food choices. The more we talkabout food with our kids, the more weraise smart eaters!

There’s one wayto temper your fearof alligators: Putyourself in a canoe in the HillsboroughRiver, 13 miles from downtownTampa, and paddle through gator-filled swamp. By the end of the jour-ney you’ll barely bat an eyelid at theeight-foot-long reptile sunning himselfon a log just metres from your canoe.
It’s not hard to leave downtownTampa, a city core with little personal-ity and few attractions for the pre- andpost-cruise crowd. But we were keento get to know this neck of the woodsand learned that the best way to dothis is to literally immerse yourselfin the woods — or, in Florida’s case,the swamps. Far from polluted, oilywater (the image that comes to mindwhen most of us think of swamps),Hillsborough River is clean and theplant life lush and verdant.
“We know it’s clean because of thelimpkins,” says Joe Faulk, owner ofCanoe Escape, a company specializingin guided and self-guided canoe tripson the river. He’s referring to the largebirds with blood-curdling shrieks wepass as we paddle through the stillwater, carefully avoiding trees felledby the recent storm. “Limpkins arethe best indicators of the ecosystem’shealth because 99 per cent of theirdiet is comprised of apple snails,” heexplains. “When you have apple snails,you have a healthy ecosystem.”
On either side of the river, maple,oak and cypress trees stand tall,their trunks submerged in water andtheir boughs trailing Spanish mossthat hangs like wispy beards. Fieldsof pennywort grass and water lilies
stretch across the surface of the waterand light-footed birds, including her-ons and egrets, pick their way carefullyover the plants.
It’s a cloudy March day and the sunis trying hard to peek through, andwhen it does the gators start showingtheir toothy faces almost immediately,crawling up onto the logs and lyingthere like sun worshipers, with a still-ness that belies their speed and agilitybelow the water’s surface.
They’re not hard to spot, these alli-gators. Some are fat-bellied and eightfeet long, others only a year or twoold. They look at us with wary eyes,splashing back into the swamp whenthey figure we’ve come too close forcomfort. “Their only fear is humans,”says Faulk, who sees up to 50 gatorsevery time he guides a tour along theriver. “They get a bad rap, but the truthis there’s been only about 21 peoplekilled by alligators since the 1970s.”
Still, Hillsborough River is not aplace you want to go swimming. Partof a state park that stretches 16,000acres, it is cherished by wildlife
enthusiasts and travellers who wantto learn more about Florida’s naturalhabitat. Apart from the hundredsof gators that bathe on logs or driftsilently through the shallow water,the swamp is home to red-belliedturtles, largemouth bass, vultures whohunker down in the treetops andbanded snakes who warm themselvesin the sun.
Faulk has been paddling theseswamps for 19 years, but even so, herelishes every opportunity to climbinto a canoe and drift away from thehighway traffic and into a place of still-ness and beauty. He’s sharp as a knifewhen it comes to spotting wildlife, canidentify birds by their calls and is afont of knowledge about the river andits critters.
“We have some two million gatorsin the state of Florida,” he says.“They’re farmed for their hide andmeat, and in some restaurants you canorder gator nuggets off the menu. Butthe truth is, the meat is pretty blandand tough.”
We’re glad not to be dining on gatormeat that night, but leave the riverwith a new respect for these reptil-ian beauties and the lush, Floridianswamps they inhabit.

My company has been doing poorly and I’ve decided to closedown the operation in six months. I realize I have to give myemployees notice, but I want my employees to keep working until
we’re closed. Can I require them to do that?
Yes. The employer has the option of choosing whether theemployee will be required to work during the period of notice orwhether the employee will simply be paid out for that period. If
a working employee quits during the notice period, the employee waiveshis or her right to any further payment relating to the notice period.However, there may be other considerations. For example, you may havea written agreement with an employee that governs notice periods, andthe Employment Standards Act has special rules for group terminations of50 or more employees.

❚NORTH DELTA MINOR FOOTBALL
CFL players volunteer for spring kids campSurrey White
Rock and NorthDelta kids willhave a chance to learn about thegame of football at a special one-day camp hosted by North DeltaMinor Football this Saturday (April30).
The camp will take place atJohn Oliver Park and features aunique opportunity for youngstersto learn about football right fromthe horse’s, well, Stampeder’smouth. And the Lion’s, Eskimo’s,Roughrider’s and Thunderbirds’too.
Event organizer Mike Ettinger,head coach of the North DeltaLonghorns’ midget team, said thepurpose of the camp is to showcasewhat minor football offers kids inNorth Delta. Helping out Ettinger’scause is a group of homegrownfootball talent, men who playedthe game as boys in the VancouverMainland Football League and highschool before moving on to playthe game in college and later inCanadian Football League.
The list of guest coachesincludes:
❚ Calvin McCarty, a runningback with the Edmonton Eskimoswho played with North Surreyminor and high school with St.Thomas More before getting ascholarship with Boise State.
❚ Ryan Lucas, a defensive line-man who played high schoolfootball in North Delta and nowsuits up with the SaskatchewanRoughriders.
❚ Sean Ortiz, a White Rocknative who attended Holy Cross inhigh school and now plays defen-sive line with the B.C. Lions.
❚ Eric Fraser, a former NorthDelta Longhorn who is gettingready for his second season as adefensive back with the CalgaryStampeders.
❚ Shawn Olson, a Holy Crossgrad who played for the SurreyRams before quarterbacking the
UBC Thunderbirds to their lastVanier Cup national title. He isnow in is second season as headcoach of the UBC football program.
“I really wanted to get togethera group of guys from around herewho have all played in the VMFLand have played at high schoolsaround here before going on tocollege and then playing pro in theCFL,” Ettinger said. “The kids whocome to the camp can meet themand realize that these guys used toplay at the same parks they do andnow they’re playing at Empire Fieldand Commonwealth Stadium andMcMahon Stadium.
“Not only do they show kidswhat’s possible, they also did it notthat long ago.”
McCarty, 26, recalls the days ofhis boyhood when he would hopthe bus to a park in hopes of join-
ing a pickup football game. Heattended clinics and day camps as akid and later in college, served as acoach at summer camps.
“I remember when I was goingto elementary school at Bear Creek,I would go and watch the B.C.Lions work out,” he said with agrin. “If I was lucky enough to runinto one of Lions at the park, Iwould always ask him some ques-tions about the game.
“Sports has always been a bigthing in my life and if we can talkto a kid, help them out and givehim some advice, that feels good tome. It feels good to give somethingback.”
McCarty added the North Deltacamp will have something to offerkids of all ages and abilities. Kidswho play football will be able tocompete in drills while newcomers
to the game will be able to get ataste of the fun that comes with ateam sport.
“This camp is all about gettingkids out there who might not havea lot of experience playing football,”he said. They can come out and seewhat the game is all about and ifthey like it, they can have an oppor-tunity to compete. We’ll be havingdrills and little things like that butthe main thing is having fun.
“My parents always told me tobe involved and stay active andthat’s a big part of what I tell kidsnow.”
Registration for the camp beginsat John Oliver Park at 8:30 a.m. onApril 30. Cost is $20 per player andincludes lunch.

Tritons split weekend with rivalsThe weekend’s
sunny skies were awelcome sight forpremier baseball players. After jug-gling their schedules for two weeks,the North Delta Blue Jays, WhiteRock Tritons and Fraser Valley Chiefsmanaged to play their schedulesas planned over the Easter holiday— although the Chiefs and Tritonswere noticeably damp at the end ofSunday’s twin bill.
The North Delta Blue Jays pickedup two wins in three outing in B.C.Premier Baseball League play, allagainst their local rivals. The Jayskicked off the weekend with a 4-1 winover the Chiefs Thursday night in amakeup game for an earlier rainout.
The Jays carried the momentumfrom that win into a Saturday double-header against the Tritons where theyscored three runs in the first inningand added two more in the sixth toforge a 6-3 win. North Delta’s mod-est streak ended later that afternoonwhen the Tritons fought back to earna 5-0 win.
Doug Strohan earned the win onthe hill for North Delta in the firstgame while Josh Larsen went the dis-tance in Game 2 for White Rock.
“It was kind of a strange day,” saidNorth Delta general manager Bob
Burkmar. “In the first game our guysplayed really well. They controlled thegame and didn’t have any letdownswhatsoever all through the seveninnings. In the second game, I don’tknow what it was but we didn’t showthe same intensity. I wouldn’t say it’san issue of endurance; it just seemslike we haven’t developed a killerinstinct yet to beat teams back toback.”The Tritons were back in action underthreatening skies Sunday in Whalleyagainst the host Fraser Valley Chiefs.Once again the Tritons dropped theopener as they were mowed downfalling 7-0 by Fraser Valley pitcherNathan de la Feraude. The Chiefshurler needed just 75 pitches to com-plete the seven inning game.
“He pitched a very efficient game,”said Chiefs general manager PaulHargreaves. “In the second inninghe actually threw 20 pitches so hedid a really good job in the final fiveinnings. White Rock didn’t show alot of spark in that game. They wereswinging at bad pitches and at firstpitches so that helped to keep hispitch count really low.”
As usual, the Tritons rallied with amuch better performance in the sec-ond game of the day, a rain-dampened8-3 win. Tanner Sandstrom earned the
win on the bump for White Rock.“A little bit of consistency would
be really nice right now,” said Tritonscoach Russ Smithson. “It’s frustratingbecause we’ve shown we can play wellbut for some reason we can’t do it fortwo straight games. We’re not play-ing bad — most of them are close ballgames — but we have to find a way toplay like that game in, game out.”
The loss ended a three-game winstreak for the Chiefs, who swept a pairof games from the lowly VancouverCannons in New WestminsterSaturday. Fraser Valley won the firstgame 5-3 in routine fashion but thesecond game turned into a hitter’sshowcase that the Chiefs finally won10-9.
Caleb Lefebvre went the distanceon the mound in Game 1, allowingjust two earned runs. Game 2 requiredfour Fraser Valley pitchers beforeDeclan Murphy finally was awardedthe win.
“We didn’t play our first game untillast week and we’re just getting going,”Hargreaves said. “Our coaches are stilljuggling things around to see who fitsbest where.
“We’re starting to get a routinegoing but it’s hard to do that when somany games are being rained out andrescheduled.”

Phil Reimer’sgolf reportWhile Brandt Snedeker waswinning the Heritage Open onSunday, defeating Luke Donaldon the third playoff hole,Tommy “Two Gloves” Gaineyand Tim “Lumpy” Herron weregetting a lot of face time onCBS.
I know, it sounds like footballdoesn’t it?
If you haven’t heard of Two Gloves, he’s doing prettywell this year, having pocketed close to $1 millionafter Sunday’s third-place finish.
This is an interesting guy.
Gainey never went to university, where many oftoday’s pros go to sharpen up their game and gettournament experience.
He kicked around a lot of small tours beatingaround the bushes until his chance came on the GolfChannel’s Big Break reality show. Gainey won, playedon the Nationwide Tour, and then moved up to thePGA Tour. The “Two Gloves” moniker comes from thefact that Gainey is the only player who plays wearingtwo golf gloves. He played a lot of baseball and thehabit of wearing two gloves stuck when he madethe move into golf. Take a look at his swing the nexttime he’s on the tube. He has a homemade swing andthere are elements of baseball in some of his moves.Next time he’s on TV take a look. That swing almosttook him to victory on Sunday.
Herron, now 41, has been around the PGA Tour for alot of years.
After making a million in 2008, he had not had a top-10 finish since. That was until this past Sunday.
Herron, whose nickname “Lumpy” suits his build,is due to make a comeback and Sunday’s finish hasnow provided him with more money then he madeall of last year.
Getting back to the winner, Snedeker’s extra holevictory stopped Luke Donald from claiming thenumber one spot in the world golf rankings.
Somebody in authority is going to have to take a lookat the points system. There should be more points formajors and major-type tournaments like the WorldGolf events.
**************************************************************
I should have caught this last week, but when MatteoManassero won the Maybank Malaysian Open it washis second win on the European Tour. No big dealyou say? Well, he’s only 18.
Add Ryo Ishikawa, Danny Lee, Seung-yul Noh andRory McIlroy and you have a large cast of golferswho won in their teens.
Still with young talented golfers, Jessica Wallace ofLangley is on the Canadian Golf Team and is burningup the golf courses in the NCAA with her secondBig 12 golfer of the month award for her play at theUniversity of Colorado.
She has now recorded eight top-10 finishes.
Have a great week.
