The facts on Grandview Heights
When Sybil Rowe moved toGrandview Heights fromVictoria 12 years ago, the area
was a very different place than it is today.She’s seen development creep into the
neighbourhood, piece by piece.“I got here just in time for all of this to
begin. It always starts with wedges. You getlittle incidious development. The beginningof the end for Grandview Heights as weknow it was the big box stores.”
With all the densification the area hasseen, Rowe has taken it upon herself to fightfor the trees in the area.
“It’s a magnificently beautiful area. It’sGod’s land and we’ve got to fight for it. Thedevelopers have had far too much their way,”Rowe said.
The neighbourhood is home to someincredibly lush, green areas. GrandviewHeights Area 4, bound by the AgriculturalLand Reserve, is considered by some tobe one of the most important biologicallydiverse areas in the city. No developmenthas yet crept into that pocket of theneighbourhood.
Rowe pointed to a development acrossthe street from her – the Grandview HeightsAquatic Centre – located at the corner of168th Street and 24th Avenue.
The City of Surrey is behind the newaquatic centre, outlined in the Build Surreyplan, which will have a 10-lane, 50-metrecompetitive main pool with spectatorseating, as well as a fitness centre. Thebuilding’s scale and strong presence on a
prominent corner are thought to be the firststep in a larger vision of a denser and moreurbanized building form for the area.
“It’s gargantuan. It’s Olympic sized. Butwhen you deal with all of the athletic fieldsand everything that is going to accompanyit, the high school, the number of trees thatare going to disappear across the road fromme break my heart,” she said, but added sheunderstands the development is needed forlocal youth and athletes, and acknowledgedthat it serves a purpose.
While Rowe has gotten her mind aroundthe need for the project after the influxof growth in the community, she nowconsiders it her duty to fight for trees andgreen space.
In January, she embarked upon a missionto save some of the area’s timbers.
She hit the streets and knocked on doorsand collected some 730 signatures andpresented the petition to the city.

Some consider Grandview Heightsto be everything in South Surreyeast of Highway 99.
According to the city, GrandviewHeights is generally bound by 184thStreet to Highway 99, and 16thAvenue to 28th Avenue, though someneighbourhoods considered to be partof Grandview extend past those borders,such as Rosemary Heights, toward 152ndStreet and 34th Avenue, and NorthGrandview Heights, which extendsupward from 28th Avenue to 32ndAvenue, from 176th Street to Highway 99.
The area encompasses subdivisionssuch as Morgan Creek, RosemaryHeights, Morgan Heights, SunnysideHeights, Redwood Heights, Orchard
Grove, and other yet-to-be-named areas.Some neighbourhoods are built-out,
such as Morgan Heights, while others arejust on the cusp of densification, such asSunnyside Heights and Orchard Grove.
In all, these areas have grown froma population of roughly 16,000 twodecades ago, to about 23,000 today.There has been approximately 3,000 newhousing units built over that time.
The ultimate projected build out isapproximately 50,000 people – or about20,000 housing units – 30 years downthe road. While continued developmentis inevitable in the area, many pocketsof acreage properties remain and areexpected to in the foreseeable future.

Rowe’s petition asked for two things: todedicate a park in the area, a parcel of landat 2770 168 Street that used to be a horsefarm, and asked for heritage designation formajestic evergreens that frame either sideof 168th Street from 24th Avenue to 32ndAvenue.
She took the petition to the city, and wasbumped back and forth between differentcommittees before she got to make her case.
“I felt like a spinning top at times,” Rowesaid of the process.
But she finally spoke herpiece in April before the city’sparks, recreation and sporttourism committee, and heardin late May the committee isrecommending Surrey councildedicate the park.
The property alreadybelongs to the city, and wasacquired with funding fromSurrey’s parkland acquisitionreserve.Rowe is over the moon.
She’s particularly glad tosee the city will likely keep theparcel in its natural state, anduse it for passive activities suchas picnicking and playgrounds,which is what she had hoped for.
“I want it to be keptbeautiful and old-fashioned:an old-fashioned heritage park for thepeople.”
With a plethora of mature trees andmeadow-like areas, Rowe said the park’scharm struck her.
“It’s typical of what people associate withGrandview Heights,” she added.
“There is a myriad of wonderful walkingtrails through the trees, then one comesupon a small, sunny clearing, that wasprobably once a riding ring.”
She says there is ample room on theproperty for people of all ages to wander, sitin the shade, picnic and play. While it lookslike Rowe will be getting her park, she’s yetto hear about the trees lining 168th Street.
“I think that’s probably the most beautifulstreet in Surrey,” she said of 168th. “Whenyou’re up on 24th (Avenue) and you lookdown the hill and you see the mountainsin the background and the blue sky andthe clouds. It’s a sight to behold. That iswhat I regard as the corridor into ourneighbourhood. It’s the entranceway. Theywere the guardians of the neighbourhood,”Rowe said.
“If they fell, it would be so easy foreverything behind them to fall. And ofcourse there’s a lot of development going onon the west side right now.”
Rowe said when collecting signatures forher petition, there was a common theme sheheard from those she spoke to: people thinkthere’s too much development.
“We’re ruining the place, we’re cuttingdown too many trees. People are startingto get very upset over the trees that aredisappearing. They were complacentbefore, now that they see it happening,they’re getting worried,” she said.““A lot ofpeople said everything we moved here for isdisappearing. They came here for the beauty.”
For now, she’s focusing her tree-savingefforts on the area from 176th to 164th,from 24th Avenue to 32nd Avenue.
“But Grandview Heights spreads muchfarther than that. It’s a big district,” she said.“This is a beautiful, beautiful land we live in.
And it should be kept beautiful.”And while Rowe is fighting for
natural lands, the city has longbeen planning how to createparks in the area as it builds out.Owen Croy, Surrey’s managerof parks, said the GrandviewHeights General Land Use Planlays out the basics for a numberof parks, schools and greenwaysin the area, and he noted thecity has actively been acquiringparkland for future parks.
“And we have somecommunity parks in the area, wehave some greenways in the areaand we have some larger parks,”he said.
The well-known RedwoodPark has been in City of Surreyholding since 1950s, and Croy
said the city has been purchasing parcels tofill in the park.
“We’re also busy assembling land foranother community-level park in thearea, in the vicinity of the (Grandview)pool. We’re acquiring land there for futurecommunity park purposes,” he said. “Thenthere’s Darts Hill Garden Park, which is a22.5 acre city-level park.”
And there are several other parks in thearea, he noted, pointing to Morgan HeightsLinear Park, Oliver Park, Greenridge Park,as well as plenty of corridors for wildlife.
Rowe said she’s glad the city is activelyseeking parkland, but is nonethelesscontinuing her efforts to save more trees inher neighbourhood, noting how importantthey are to qualify of life for residents.
“Studies have shown that in the midst ofmassive development, the retention of a fewof those old, familiar places does much toalleviate the stress and anxiety brought onby a rapidly changing world,” she said.
“I have one agenda – save the trees.”[email protected]
Next week:Part two of this Neighbourhoods featurewill look at a development proposal inGrandview’s Area 5 – home to ruralcommunities such as Country Woods– that has some locals crying foul.

For the past three or foursummers, the Kennedy familyhas been spending a couple days
per week fishing for crab off of the pierat South Surrey’s Crescent Beach.
Glen and Marianne, along with theirtwo young sons, Kurt and Sean, baittheir single trap with a turkey’s neckor piece of chicken and throw it off thewooden dock into the water and waitfor the crustaceans to walk into it.
“We just got our licenses yesterday,”Glen said enthusiastically, watching histrap on a sunny June day. Glen renewshis crabbing license each year, withthe license expiring in March of thefollowing year.
“(The season) goes ‘til like October,November, gets quiet in January,February, and then it picks up again inthe spring.”
Often, the family gets togethermid-day to set their traps. That’swhen officers from the Department ofFisheries and Oceans (DFO), as well asRCMP officers, are least likely to comearound to check traps, licenses and tomake sure nobody is illegally keepingundersized or female crabs.
“We’re here in the afternoon, butif you come in the evening... [RCMPofficers] come up here,” Glen said.“There were two police officers herebefore, they usually come up before it
gets dark, they come up and check mytraps and see what everybody’s up to.Sometimes there’s a truck over therethat’s driving around, they actuallypatrol it quite a bit,” he said, pointingover to the parking lot that separatesCrescent Beach from Blackie Spit.
That’s not necessarily a bad thing,but Marianne would prefer if the DFO– who know all the rules of fishing andcrabbing – would patrol full-time.
Fortunately, after years of trial-and-error and countless hours spent on thedock, the Kennedy’s know their stuff.
They know what they can keep andwhat they have to throw back.
“They have to be six and a halfinches and it needs to be a male crab,it can’t be a female crab. The femalehas a wider underneath part, it’s likean emblem that’s there,” Marianne saidconfidently, drawing an invisible V onher palm with her index finger. “Thefemale one is big, the male is just thin.”
Glen said that, a lot of the time, heand his family have to throw back theircatches but that, on average, they yieldfive or six usable crabs per week (thedaily limit is six).
Sometimes, however, more than justcrabs end up in the trap.
“Every now and then there’ll be astarfish,” Glen said with a laugh, andMarianne was quick to interject. “Lastyear, we caught a mud shark inside ofa cage,” she said. “We pulled it up andhad to let it go. It looks like a shark,that’s what broke the cage.”
In all, the Kennedy’s had to reinvest$45 for a new cage and a rope, plusanother $28 for their waterprooffishing license. Not a bad deal when, ata seafood restaurant along the beach,you might pay that for just two crabs,sides not included.

SURREY — Need a little happy in your life?Filmmaker Adam Dosanjh with Triple7Films and actress,
model and designer Mesha Toor banded forces to shoottheir version of Pharrell Williams’ popular song ‘Happy.’
The goal? To unite the “movers and shakers” of the SouthAsian community as a means to spread more positivity,happiness and togetherness, recognizing the negativity thatexists in the community.
Inspiration for the video came from a similar one done inthe U.K., and the two Surreyites wanted to do something intheir hometown.
“Most of the people are business people or well-knownpeople in the South Asian community,” Dosanjh said. “We
shot over three days, where we said, ‘Hey, we’re going to beavailable at this time, pick a slot, we only need you for fiveminutes, and bring your happy face.’”
Roughly 30 members of the local South Asian communityare featured in the video clapping, dancing and showingoff their smiles, including Coun. Barinder Rasode and MissUniverse candidate Mina Khtaria.
The project was shot mostly in Surrey, featuring locationssuch as Newton Town Centre and Surrey Arts Centre.
“We chose Newton just because it also sheds some goodlight on Newton as well. Newton has been getting a really
bad rap lately. We just wanted to be out there as well,”Dosanjh said.
The initial response has been great, he added, with thevideo receiving over 3,000 views in just a couple of days.
“A lot of people shared it, a lot of people felt fresh afterwatching it. It’s inspiring, it’s fun, it’s motivating,” Dosanjhsaid. “And that’s what we wanted.”

The Editor,Re: “Cops cruel for ticketing tourists,”
the Now letters, June 5.Aren’t people unbelievable sometimes?
Who does Jennifer Jilks from Perth, Ont.think she is? Does she think that becauseshe’s a “tourist” in B.C. and spendsthousands of dollars here she can speedthrough a playground – where I’m surethere were speed limit signs posted – andget away with this, then go on to slamthe RCMP for stopping her and issuing aspeeding ticket?
You got caught, Jill. Suck it up andpay the fine – that’s the consequence ofspeeding in a playground zone, whetheryou’re here or in Ontario.
Thank God you didn’t kill somebody.I, for one, don’t want tourists like you
coming here believing they’re entitled.We have enough problems with our owncitizens speeding through school and
playground zones who think they’re entitledwithout tourists believing the same.
Judy Young, Surrey
So, when on vacation,laws don’t apply to us?The Editor,
Re: “Cops cruel for ticketing tourists,”the Now letters, June 5.
I cannot believe Jennifer Jilks had theaudacity to write and complain aboutthe speeding ticket she received while onvacation here.
Jennifer, I have a question for you. Justbecause you “spend thousands of dollars inour part of the world,” does that give youthe right to speed through a playgroundzone? If I spend money in Maui, I guess
that means I should be given immunity forany speeding tickets? I guess when I go onvacation anywhere, I should only receivewarnings since I am spending money inthat part of the world?
Good for Surrey RCMP for enforcing aplayground zone, where so many peopleforget to slow down. I am sure the $196ticket is better than having the SurreyRCMP attend for picking up a child off theroad.
Thank you, Surrey RCMP, for enforcingthe rules – regardless if you live in B.C. ornot

YOUR LETTERS: Email your letters tothe editor to [email protected] keep them short and include your fullname and where you live.
Your view
History has a timely and poetic wayof making itself relevant.
On Wednesday, much of theworld took time to reflect on the 25thanniversary of the Tianamen Squaremassacre that saw untold hundreds orpossibly thousands of unarmed protesterskilled in the name of “restoring calm.”
Lest anyone in China today try tocommemorate the tragedy, each year theChinese government tracks and rounds updissidents and families of victims and putsthem under house arrest.
Just as it crushed the pro-democracymovement with tanks, the Chinesegovernment is determined to crush eventhe memory of dissent in its population.
Disturbingly, on the same day last week,the Ottawa Citizen revealed a leaked emailfrom the Government Operations Centreto all federal departments asking for“assistance in compiling a comprehensivelisting of all known demonstrations”regardless of who is protesting or why.
The agency set up to ensure sharing ofinformation in the event of emergencieslike earthquakes, tsunamis and nuclearmeltdowns is now apparently alsoconcerned about environmental and FirstNations protests and teacher strikes amongother threats to social order.
Our Charter of Rights and Freedoms usesthe word “fundamental” to describe ourrights to freedom of expression, peacefulassembly and association. It is part of ahealthy democracy, not something to bemonitored. It is part of what distinguishesus from totalitarian states like China.
Shame on Ottawa for its willingness toviolate the rights of its own citizens to serveits own paranoia.
And shame on us for not speaking uplouder to condemn such actions.

As the latest contract disputeinvolving B.C.’s teacherscareens towards the inevitably
unsatisfactory conclusion for allinvolved, it’s worth asking whetheranother bargaining model should beadopted.
But while it may be worth it to posethe question, it’s far from clear thatany alternative exists that is the magicsolution that would satisfy all parties.
Take binding arbitration, the mostcommonly referred to option tothe current system. I’ve not heardenthusiasm for this solution fromeither the employer or the teachers’union.
The problem with bindingarbitration for the parties involved init is that it can lead to an outcome thatis beyond the control of those affected.
For the employer, this can meana financial arbitration that maygreatly exceed its ability to pay, ormay have a “domino” effect on othercontracts involving other groupsof its employees (i.e. other publicsector unions) with the total financialimpact being substantially higher thananything contemplated in a single setof negotiations.
For a union like the B.C. TeachersFederation, binding arbitration wouldmean it would have to buy into thenotion that its wage proposals (alwayssubstantially higher than any otherpublic sector union) would likely haveto be scaled back considerably to betreated seriously by an arbitrator.
Of course, prior to 1987, bindingarbitration was actually used to settleteachers’ pay (and few other issues).That was the year the Social Creditgovernment of the day gave the BCTF
the right to strike, which led to fullcollective bargaining.
But if binding arbitration was tobe used today, it presumably wouldinclude many more cost items, not theleast of which would be the thornyand expensive issues of class size andclass composition.
The fact both parties likely fear thatan arbitrator could rule against theirself-interest on these issues is anotherbig reason for the lack of enthusiasmfor that model.
And frankly, I’m not sure bindingarbitration could adequately dealwith the class size/compositionsituation. That’s because it’s a verycomplex issue, and it’s as much abouta philosophical split between theemployer and the union as it is aboutfunding.
The BCTF wants fixed rules inplace that govern how many specialneeds students can be in a particularclassroom, while the employer arguesthe system needs flexibility to dealwith what can be very complexsituations (the employer also arguesfixed ratios are actually discriminatoryagainst special needs kids).
The union’s position inevitablytranslates into more classrooms beingcreated, and therefore more teachersbeing hired (this fits with the BCTF’sconstant struggle for control of theclassroom). The employer’s positionwould presumably not create the samenumber of classrooms.
Each side exaggerates the meritsof its own position – and the direconsequences of the other’s. There’sno question the issues involved arevital, but I wonder if most people evenknow what is meant by “special needs”when it comes to diagnosing children.
Do people know there areactually 12 “categories” of specialneeds? They include: physicallydependent, deaf or blind, moderateto profound intellectual disability,physical disability and chronic health
impairment, visual impairment, hardof hearing, autism, severe mentalillness, mild intellectual disability,moderate mental illness, learningdisability and gifted.
The definitions of what constituteseach category are shaped by diagnosticfindings of the American PsychologyAssociation and those diagnostic toolsare used to diagnose students whentheir parents or their teacher(s) thinkit’s necessary to do so.
And some of the definitions canchange. Take autism for example. In2000, about 1,300 kids were diagnosedwith autism, and this past year thenumber was 6,750.
Experts say this phenomenal growthis because much more informationhas become known about autism, andthe diagnostic tools are vastly differentnow than they were back in 2000.
I’m providing this kind ofdetail because I think it shows thecomplexity of the situation may bebeyond the skill set of a traditionallabour arbitrator. Best to leave thedecisions surrounding this issue inthe hands of those actually runningthe system, which means teachers andadministrators.
The BCTF has made a compellingargument that more funding isneeded to address class compositionsituations, while the employer hasmade an equally good case about theneed for flexibility in the system.
Hopefully the two sides can stillachieve some middle ground in thecurrent dispute.
To accomplish that, they will haveto engage in real collective bargaining.The traditional model hasn’t servedteachers well for a number of reasons,but binding arbitration may prove tobe no better, at least when it comes toclass size and composition issues.

Socially speakingHere’s what our Facebook followerswere saying about a tourist’s rantconcerning a ticket she got fromSurrey RCMP for speeding in Surrey.
The Now Newspaper It sounds kind ofcrazy (because maybe it is) but this letterwriter is slamming Surrey cops for ticketingher when she was visiting – and speeding in– our city.
Heather McGowan A warning of thespeed limit? Isn't that what the big sign thatstates the speed limit is for...they havethose back East too don't they?Condescending remark aside...why notadmit when you've done something wrong(in this case illegal) and not waste your timeblaming others for your mistake. I'd like tothank the Surrey cop for enforcing our laws.
Marni Keeping I agree she should beticketed. You do the crime, you pay the fine.
Gord Lamont Do you break the Law inyour town
Stephanie Turner I'm sorry but what amoron!! Perhaps when travelling you shouldlearn to follow the laws of that city/country.Pretty sure all of North America has speedsigns. Glad she got ticketed, maybe nexttime when she's a tourist she will keep citiessafer by slowing down!!
Niamh Kavanagh Sometimes you justcan't get the stupid out of people
Katrina Larsen Almost as bad as the ladywho was mad she got a ticket for using herphone when she was not texting or talking,she was just loading a web page.
Jenni-lynn Hewitt I know I laughed atthat one as well. Are you kidding me?Looking a website? You are still beingdistracted you idiot. Another thing thatirritates me is people who drive with theirheadphones in their ears. how could youhear if people were trying to warn you, ifthere was a crash, or if emergency serviceswere needing you to move out of the wayetc.

Coal facility seems tobe done deal alreadyThe Editor,
It is really disconcerting to hear thatPenny Priddy is probably the only voice ofreason on the board of directors of PortMetro Vancouver. The other 10 most likelyobey the dictates of their raison d’etre, thegovernment in Ottawa, without concern forthe local citizenry who will be impacted bytheir decisions.
Why do I get this gut feeling, they havebeen told that no matter how long it takesor how many hoops you have to jumpthrough, eventually you must approve thecoal transfer station at Fraser Surrey Docks?Ignore the fact the Americans have refusedto ship this U.S. thermal coal through itsports, open coal cars and barges impacting
our environment and being a significantcontributor to pollution in China, to saynothing of global warming. It truly wouldbe a miracle if they had the courage torefuse to approve the permit application..
I wonder if this is printed, will it get meon Mr. Harper’s recently revealed “naughtylist”? And here I thought Canada was ademocracy. Silly me.
David Gibbs, Surrey
Government’s actionsshow such hypocrisyThe Editor,
So let me try to wrap my brain aroundthis one: The government locks teachersout. This means it won’t allow teachers to doany work at lunch and recess.
The government also won’t let teachersphysically in the school until 45 minutesbefore school starts, and teachers are forcedto leave school premises only 45 minutesafter school ends. It also ruled that teachersare not allowed to do any school work athome.
OK, got that.Then, at the same time, the government
docks teachers’ pay 10 per cent, defendingits actions by saying teachers are not doingtheir jobs.
It’s lunacy – and shows such hypocrisy.Speaking of hypocrisy, here’s a real barn
burner for you: Did you know that the sameprivate school the premier sends her child toalso receives funding from the province?
Yep. That’s a two-tiered education system,people, both of which the government fundsusing taxpayer money.
So, dear public, when you startcomplaining about having to buy a packof computer paper from your kid’s schoolsupply list again (which is used to helpsupplement the “never-big-enough” paperbudget in the school), don’t complain to me.Buy the darn paper.
And remember that no matter what youthink of teachers, your taxes (which aresupposed to support your kids’ public and“free” education) are also supplementingChristy Clark’s son’s private education.
The joke’s on every B.C. taxpayer. Too badit just isn’t funny.

SURREY — Thousands of students acrossthe province walked out of class Wednesdaymorning to take part in their own protestover the current teacher dispute.
Organized by Lord TweedsmuirSecondary student Victoria Barker onFacebook and officially dubbed the BCStudent Walkout for Students, the protestwas meant to display students’ frustrationwith the current climate in B.C. schools.While more than 13,000 people signed upto participate online, participation reportedonline appeared to be less than that.
Either way, Barker was still happy tosee students taking a stand for their owninterests.
“This has been going on my entire schoollife and I finally got to the point whereI thought ‘enough was enough’ and it’stime to do something,” said Barker, who’scurrently in Grade 12 and getting ready tograduate. “When I was in Grade 4 there wasa two-week teacher strike and in Grade 10a few years ago there were three more daysthat teachers were out and then here we areagain.”
Barker, who stood down the street fromher school Wednesday, June 4 with around30 fellow classmates holding signs decryingthe labour dispute, went on to say thatstudents are sick of being used as leverageby both sides of the dispute.
“We’re neither in support of the BCTFor the government,” she said. “We’re justfrustrated and need this to end.”
At the same time, Barker was receivingmessages, Tweets and Facebook messagesfrom students in school districts from allaround B.C., reporting in about how theirown protests were going.
In some districts, Barker noted that somestudents had been physically blocked fromwalking out by school administration, whileother students elsewhere were saying thateverything was going well.
In Surrey, district spokesman DougStrachan said there was no direct messageto local administration on how to deal withthe walkout, only to ensure that safety wasthe first priority.
“It’s skipping class, that’s all, but theyneed to take some steps to make sure they’resafe, so they will,” he said.
At Lord Tweedsmuir, those safetymeasures involved locking most of theschool’s doors to ensure they could keeptrack of those leaving and returning to class.
“For safety reasons, students would havebeen directed to the front main entranceso we could control access and egresswhile students were coming and going,”said Strachan, noting that it was standard
procedure for some schools.However, some students have said they
were being intimidated by principals andadministrators – including those at LordTweedsmuir.
Strachan said the students were simplymisinterpreting the safety procedures.
“That might be what they’re saying, we’redoing what we need to do to ensure safety.Administrators have been telling studentsthat the main entrance is what is to be usedto come and go,” he said.

SURREY — Sixty-six heroic people wererecognized for their actions with the Officerin Charge Awards on Wednesday, June 4 atthe Surrey Arts Centre.
“Every year I look forward to thisopportunity to publicly acknowledgethe many acts of heroism and dedicationdisplayed by the men and women of ourdetachment and community,” said SurreyRCMP Chief Supt. Bill Fordy. “I am veryproud to honour officers and citizens whoacted courageously and went that extra milefor our community.”
Among the 66 officers, civilians, supportstaff and volunteers who received honourswere brave young ones, 12-year-oldGenevieve Marcotte and nine-year-old JohnMarcotte, who saved their siblings from ahouse fire last November.
When a sparking dryer caused theMarcotte’s home to go up in smoke whilethe parents were out running errands, Johngathered his siblings and brought them tohis older sister, Genevieve, who – havingrecently finished the babysitting certificatecourse – instructed her younger siblingsto crawl down the stairs backwards, safelyexiting the house, and to seek refuge at theirneighbour Tomislav Bagaric’s home. Bagaric
then went back into the Marcotte’s home,attempting to put out the fire, emptyingtwo full fire extinguishers. Bagaric, alongwith the two young Marcotte siblings, alsoreceived the OIC award for his brave actionsand allowing the children to stay at hishome while the fire blazed next door.
“Genevieve’s calm, decisive and heroicactions saved her family from a potentiallydangerous situation,” Fordy said, beforeawarding her the OIC commendation.Fordy also commended Bagaric as he“went beyond the scope of being a goodneighbour.”

“It is a dream for mycommunity, for the Filipinocommunity,” Dela Cruzsaid Monday. “The Filipinocommunity is now the secondlargest ethnic group in Surrey,and third in British Columbia,and we are very much underrepresented. So I am happyto live that dream for mycommunity and to contribute to society asa whole.”
Dela Cruz wouldn’t confirm whethershe’d be running as an independent or witha party, only saying she is “studying” heroptions. She said a party hasn’t “directly”approached her.
While Dela Cruz has never held politicaloffice, she was considered by the NDP fornomination in the Surrey-Tynehead ridingin the 2013 election, but Avtar Bains wasinstead selected. Liberal candidate AmrikVirk won the race in the riding and was laterappointed Minister of Advanced Education.

PAC for six years, where shecurrently sits as vice-chair.
Of her volunteer work, she said“it’s something that runs in myblood.
“Helping people makes mehappy. It’s as simple as that. I’vebeen there and I want to giveback.”
Through her volunteer efforts,Dela Cruz said she sees Surreyresidents love their city, but notes
there is much to improve upon.“We know it can be better and there’s lots
do be done, especially for working families,”she said.
Asked what she’d like to see improved inthe city, she said transportation, educationand support for seniors.
If elected, Dela Cruz says she will bringethnic opinions to city hall.

Rasode also plans to take the conceptout on the streets for what she’s calling a
“listening tour.”“We’re also going to do a pop-up
presence,” she said. “It’s creating a presencegoing to listen to people where they are:So whether it’s walking on the beach ona Sunday or sitting in a park, and justlistening.
“I think that’s really valuable.”Rasode said she doesn’t think platforms
should be “developed in a boardroom,” butrather, “by the people.”
She plans to run her “listening tour”throughout the summer.

NEW WEST— A Surreywoman accused of stabbingher best friend 41 timesdeclined to speak with alawyer after she was arrestedfor murder, despite SurreyRCMP officers repeatedlyasking her if she wantedaccess to legal counsel.
“Aren’t lawyers reallyfor guilty people?” JessicaAshley Hanley inquiredof the arresting officers, inSurrey RCMP lockup.
Hanley, 25, is being triedfor second-degree murderin the death of 23-year-oldBurnaby resident TashinaRae Sutherland, killed insidea small rancher at 10593138th St. in Whalley onApril 26, 2012.
The trial is being heardin B.C. Supreme Courtin New Westminster.Dominating this past weekwas a voir dire hearing, or atrial within a trial. In suchhearings lawyers argue overwhat should be admittedinto evidence.
Justice Elizabeth Arnold-Bailey will have to decideif she should admit threestatements that Hanleymade to police overeleven and a half hours ofinterviews as evidence in thetrial proper, or disabuse hermind of them.
The Crown is seeking toprove these statements weremade voluntarily while theHanley’s lawyer maintainshis client’s Charter Rightshad been violated.
Earlier in the trial,Hanley’s boyfriend told thecourt his place looked likea hurricane had hit it, aftercoming home from work tofind Sutherland’s body.
The court also heardfrom Hanley’s dad ThomasPatrick Hanley, whobrought her to the SurreyRCMP’s District 1 office inWhalley to be arrested.
During cross-examination, Hanley’sfather told the court thatshe hid kitchen knives in herroom when she was a younggirl.
“She would place it underher mattress in her bed,”
he testified. “We’re talkingabout steak and butcherknives.”
The first witness in thevoir dire was Surrey RCMPConst. David Macdonald.
On the afternoon ofthe homicide, he said,he was standing outsideof the District 1 office at107th Avenue and KingGeorge Boulevard at about5:30 p.m., speaking withcolleagues, when Hanley’sfather walked up, andtapped him on his shoulder.He said the elder Hanleytold him “his daughterhad confessed to him shehad murdered somebody.”Hanley was standing nearby,Macdonald said, “sobbinguncontrollably.”
Macdonald said hehandcuffed Hanley andled her into an interviewroom inside the Whalleystation, where he “formallyChartered and warned herfor murder.”
Hanley could be heardsobbing in an interviewroom video played in court.On the tape she could beheard saying, “I don’t needa f---ing lawyer, OK,” and “Ididn’t kill her.”
Asked if she knew whatwas going on, Hanleyreplied “My best friend diedI get that OK?”
Macdonald then droveher to the Surrey RCMP’smain detachment station inNewton. This trip was alsoaudiotaped.
Hanley was in the backseat, mostly silent butoccasionally crying. Shetold the officer she didsome cocaine the nightbefore and drank alcoholin the morning. She alsonodded off in the patrol car,Macdonald said.
Defence lawyer JordanWatt suggested that Hanleywas hysterical but the officerdidn’t agree.
“I’ve seen hysterical,”Macdonald told the court.
Hanley was the firstperson Macdonald hadarrested for murder – a taskhe has performed since.At the time, he’d been aMountie for three-and-a-half years. He told thecourt he was closer tosenior constable thanjunior constable status, asa constable receives seniorconstable pay at four years.
“It’s not that I work in asleepy town,” he noted.
Const. Eric Kim testifiedthat he believes Hanleyunderstood why she wasbeing arrested.
“I don’t believe she wasconfused on why she wasthere,” he told the court.
Cpl. Alison Cameron,a forensic identificationofficer, testified Hanley“didn’t appear to beintoxicated She certainlyappeared sad.”
The trial continues.tzytaruk@thenow

INFORM
SOUTH SURREY — TheZellers store at SemiahmooShopping Centre is closing.
The store’s closure hasbeen confirmed by BrianKozak, executive vice-president of western Canadafor First Capital Realty,which owns the mall.
“We can’t explain whyHudson’s Bay would decideto close the Zellers aftersaying they were going tokeep (it) operating,” he said.“You’d have to ask Hudson’sBay (Company) why theymade that decision.”
The Semiahmoo Zellerswas one of the few locationsnot purchased by Targetwhen the retail giant madeits move north of the border.In early 2013, HBC decidedto keep the site open as oneof only three left in Canada.
At that time, TiffanyBourré, director of externalcommunications forHBC said, “After a reviewof the site locations notacquired by Target, Zellershas decided to continue tooperate three stores beyondMarch 2013 under the
Zellers name.“Zellers will redefine the
store format to focus onfashion apparel and a refinedhome product offering, witha shared merchandise mixwith other HBC banners.”
The two other Zellerslocations are in Montrealand Toronto.
Bourré did not respondto a request for comment bypress time.
However, Kozak said theywere actually pleased aboutHBC deciding to pull theplug, as it now opens upthe space for other retailopportunities.
“We’re actually quitehappy that we’re going tobe getting that space backand going to be able tore-merchandise the spacewith uses which we thinkwill be of greater benefit anda greater draw for not onlythe shopping centre but thecommunity as a whole,” hesaid.
Kozak said he was not atliberty to say what thoseother uses might be at thispoint, but “certainly theywill be much bigger trafficgenerators than what yousee currently with theZellers store.”

SOUTH SURREY — Hundreds ofcar lovers made a pit-stop in MorganCrossing to see rows of Camaros andMustangs on Sunday (June 8).
The sun was shining on aisles ofparked vintage, muscle and sportscars as The Shops at Morgan Crossingheld the fifth annual MorganCrossing Car and Motorcycle Show.
Proceeds went to White Rock SouthSurrey Hospice Society. TheresaRobson, the society’s executivedirector, said the society enjoysputting on third-party events.
“It’s a hospice society supporterout in the community. In this case,
it’s The Shops at Morgan Crossing,and they take it upon themselvesto put together all of the work andorganizing and sponsorships,”Robson said.
She appreciates what The Shops doto set up the event and also hopes thatit brings awareness to what the societydoes.
“It takes up the whole parking lotbetween Thrifty’s and London Drugs.They shut down that whole parkinglot because it’s going to be filled withthese amazing cars and motorcycles.
“It’s always an amazing awarenesschance for a hospice society,” Robsonsaid.
Splashes, a South Surrey car washand detail company, was one of thesponsors at the show. Ryan Oliver,
one of the owners at Splashes, andhis team came up with the idea ofoffering $10 vouchers to Splashes foranyone who donates $5 to the hospicesociety.
Splashes is located approximatelythree kilometres away from TheShops, and Oliver believes that localbusinesses have a vital role to play incommunity events.
“It’s a huge amount of effort forus to do things like this. There’s alot of cost involved but it’s right upthe street, it’s a car show, we’re a carcompany and it’s for a good cause,”Oliver said.
“Even though it doesn’t startuntil 11, people are excited and startshowing up at eight o’clock in themorning,” Oliver added.
