THE OPPOSITION party in Surrey civic politics has put some of its candidates in place for the coming fall election.

The left-leaning Surrey Civic Coalition (SCC) hopes to secure some seats from the Surrey First-dominated council and Surrey

First Education-ruled Board of Education.The SCC currently holds one seat on

each, with veteran councillor Bob Bose and one-term school trustee Ijaz Chatha.

On Saturday, SCC nominated Gary Rob-inson, Rina Gill, Stephanie Ryan and Grant Rice to run for council, while Charlene Dobie, Laurence Greeff, and Moh Chalali

will be SCC’s school trustee candidates.”The SCC delegates chose a good mix

of new and experienced candidates,” said Gord Savard, SCC president. ”Voters will be impressed with what these folks have to offer.”

THE FAMILY of Ned Mander, an innocent victim of the Indo-Cana-dian gang violence that marred the Lower Mainland a decade ago, will be erecting a fi tting tribute to him in the highest-profi le of surroundings in Richmond.

Th e 28-year-old was kidnapped and murdered in October of 2001 aft er leaving his North Surrey bath-room products store.

Aft er years of speculation by the media and public that Mander was somehow linked to gangs or the drug trade, police in 2009 fi nally cleared his name.

Police said Mander was simply used as a pawn.

“He was an innocent victim caught in the crossfi re of a bitter rivalry,” RCMP Sgt. Tim Shields said nearly two years ago.

Th e Mander family, who have lived in Richmond since 1974, recently approached the City of Richmond with the wish to com-mission the construction of a metal sculpture of a volleyball player in Mander’s name.

Police inspect Kassandra Kaulius’ BMW at the scene of last Tuesday’s fatal collision.

Company van ‘had no right to be on the road that night’

by Kevin Diakiw

THE WOMAN driving the van that killed a popular Surrey ath-lete has been fi red from her job for using a company vehicle without permission.

At just aft er 10 p.m. Tuesday, May 3, the woman, who police believe had been drinking, was driving a van owned by Precision Restoration in Delta when she ran a red light at 152 and 64 Avenue.

She smashed into a BMW being driven by 22-year-old Kassandra Kaulius, who was on her way home from a soft ball game at Cloverdale Athletic Park.

Kaulius died at the scene.Th e 34-year-old Surrey woman driving the van fl ed into a

nearby wooded area aft er the accident, where police found

her “showing signs of intoxication from alcohol.”Police now confi rm the woman had left a friend’s place

where she was watching Game 3 of the Canucks-Predators playoff series.

RCMP say they continue to be in a heightened state of awareness for anyone who may be drinking during the hockey playoff s and make the unfortunate decision to drive.

Th e woman involved in last week’s crash was driving a company van. Th e owner of Precision Restoration said the woman was not supposed to have been using the vehicle and has been terminated.

Drivers are allowed to drive the vehicles to and from work and to any jobs in between. Th ere were no jobs that night, said owner Randy Klann.

“Th at vehicle had no right to be on the road that evening,” said Klann. “We have a very strict policy with regards to personal use of company vehicles, as well as consumption of alcohol.”

Cynthia Allaire-Bell and her husband Wayne Bell speak to the media following a press conference Thursday morning.

‘Mothers,look into

your hearts’

by Kevin Diakiw

WITH THE ashes of their son in a box at their side, the parents of a slain Surrey teen made an emotional plea last week for any witnesses to his murder to come forward.

“Please, we know there are people out there who know who did this, evil, cruel act,” mother Cynthia Allaire-Bell said Th ursday. “Mothers, look into your hearts and think of your own children, because, you don’t want to go here... the murder of our young must stop.”

On April 24, 19-year-old Devon Allaire-Bell and his life-long pal Jack Neilsen were at Frank Hurt Secondary School, near 138 Street and 77 Avenue, having a couple of beers and playing soccer.

Th ey were confronted by six Indo-Canadian males, who fought with them, then stabbed them both.

Allaire-Bell died shortly aft er, while Neilsen crawled a short distance to call for help. Police have released video from the night and are asking for public assistance in identifying persons of interest in the case.

Speaking to the perpetrators at a press conference, Cynthia Allaire-Bell said “if you believe you were a man when you did this, be a man and take responsibility for what you did.”

Devon’s father Wayne Bell said it’s time the community stepped up and acted to stop the violence.

“What kind of people have we become that we accept this type of behaviour from people?” Bell said. “Instead of doing something and getting involved, we tell our kids to go in twos and be careful and so on.

“It is up to us to make sure no other families have to go through what we are going through,” he said. “I am going to fi ght to see that they pay for what they have done, every one of them.”

Bell said he’s heard from several people telling him they’re behind him.“I don’t want you standing behind me, I want

you standing next to me, fi ghting for all these things we know are right,” Bell said. “It is up to us to make sure they are punished to the full extent of the law. For me and my family, it will never be enough, because we will never get Devon back.”

During the fi rst two days of the investigation, police found a substantial amount of evidence at or near the scene which is now being foren-sically examined, said Cpl. Dale Carr, with the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT).

Th e video released depicts fi ve males leaving the park, some dressed in darker clothing and one in a white track suit and another in a grey track suit. Th e latter two, police say, are very distinctive. Police are urging anyone who may be able to identify them to call the IHIT tip line at 1-877-551-IHIT (4448) or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).

Gill, Ryan and Rice ran with SCC in 2008, while Robinson, who served on Surrey council from 1987 to 1998, ran as an independent last time.

Greeff was an SCC candidate in the last election while Dobie and Chalali are new to civic politics. Chelali ran for the provincial NDP in Surrey-White Rock previously.

About 100 people attended the Firefi ghters Barge Inn nomination meeting Saturday aft ernoon.

Returning candidate Ryan said Monday she believes there are a number of issues that aren’t being addressed by the current council and school board.

Prime among those is the number of portables at Surrey’s overcrowded schools.

A small elementary school recently re-opened in Clayton, which Ryan said is great, but brings the city only fi ve more classrooms.

In the 1990s, Surrey faced the same situation, and council refused to issue any more build-ing permits. Sud-denly, developers, builders and real-tors were part of a lobbying force to the province that brought this city more school construction.

SCC will hold a second nomina-tion meeting at a date to be deter-mined later, likely near Labour Day in September.

“Having two nominations is a fi rst for SCC,” said Savard, “but this year, with all the political uncertainty, it made sense for us. We have candi-dates who couldn’t wait to get out and talk to voters, but this way we can continue to gain momentum and have a second nomination as the November election gets closer.”

Mander was a nation-ally ranked volleyball player and wore No. 13.

“Ned was an amazing person,” brother Dave Mander wrote this week in an e-mail to Th e Leader’s sister paper, Th e Richmond Review.

“He lit up any room he walked into not just with his stature but his laughter.

“I always wanted to create a legacy for my brother, but I couldn’t do it back then because the false accusation of Ned being into drugs constantly hung over

the situation.“Th en when the

RCMP fi nally cleared his name and declared him innocent in October 2009, eight years aft er Ned disappeared, I knew we could fi nally move forward with a legacy.”

Th e plan calls for the sculpture to be placed inside the Richmond Olympic Oval.

Th e sculpture is to be craft ed by artist Cory Fuhr, whose Speed Skater sculpture at the oval is arguably the facility’s most popular work of art.

Fuhr said that he’ll spend the next few months on the sculpture,

pounding out each piece in cold steel. Th e fi nal work should tip the scales at more than 400 pounds.

Th e Mander fam-ily plans to unveil the artwork this October, on the tenth anniversary of Ned’s death.

Dave Mander said he and his family are thank-ful for the support of Richmond Mayor Mal-colm Brodie, who helped brainstorm the theme.

“Life is still hard for all of us. Ned’s body was never found so there are still so many questions. Without a body, I don’t know that there will ever be true closure. But this

art certainly helps the healing.”

In addition to com-missioning the artwork, the Mander family will be providing funding for ongoing maintenance, as well as the installation.


the company for about two years.Klann said he has had no previ-

ous complaints about the woman.He was shocked when he got a

call from police the night of the accident.

“I thought I was dreaming, and it automatically turned into a nightmare,” Klann said. “We really do want to continue to express our sadness for the incident to the family especially. Everybody is devastated by the senseless loss of life.”

Kaulius’s sister Miranda said the world lost a magnifi cent person.

“She was amazing, wonderful, outgoing, energetic, sense of humour,” Miranda said of Kassan-dra. “Oh man, just take a diction-ary and ask for the best words and that would be my sister.”

Kaulius was attending the University of the Fraser Valley to become a physicial education teacher. Th e rest of her time was booked solid.

“She coached and played (baseball), she had two jobs, she was going to school,” Miranda said. “Her passion was baseball and family, those were her biggest loves.”

RCMP Cpl. Drew Grainger

called the collision “another sense-less example of a seeming impaired accident causing death.”

Th e woman has been released from custody, but charges are expected.

A scholarship fund has been set up in Kaulius’s name at Coast Cap-ital Savings. Anyone interested in donating can ask for the Kassandra Kaulius Surrey Storm Scholarship at any branch.

Th ere will be a Celebration of Life for Kassandra Th ursday, May 12 at 1 p.m. at the Christian Life Assembly in Langley at 21277 56 Ave.

One defi nition of a “teachable moment” goes like this: “that moment when a unique, high interest situation arises that lends itself to discus-sion of a particular topic.”

One such teachable moment occurred at the Burnaby Lake Sports Complex on Friday, during the B.C. boys’ AAA high school championship soccer tournament.

Th e tournament – fi nally underway aft er being postponed in November 2010 due to snow – came to an exciting conclusion as Port Coquitlam’s Dr. Charles Best Secondary took the championship, beating North Delta Secondary 3-2 in overtime play.

In the testosterone-fuelled aft ermath, with emotions running high, a Coquitlam fan ran onto the fi eld and began taunting North Delta spectators.

Not a wise move, to be sure, yet what happened next – while perhaps predictable – was unacceptable.

Th e in-your-face fan was grabbed by players and swarmed as spectators spilled onto the fi eld, some of them laying brutal kicks to the young man’s body.

Parents and teachers got involved in the melee, trying to stop the violence, but also exchanging heated words with the aggressors. Th e situation could have easily escalated.

Th e entire sequence of events was captured on camera by Leader photographer Evan Seal. View a slideshow at surreyleader.com

And parents? We suggest you do. Scan the crowd of spectators and look for your son or daughter. Are their faces etched with shock, concern and alarm as the beat-ing unfolds?

Or are they laughing with glee, raising their hands in the air in support, applaud-ing and cheering as the beating unfolds?

As ill-advised as the young man’s conduct was – a lesson he has no doubt pain-fully learned – encouraging grievous physical harm and senseless violence must always be frowned upon.

Frightening things can happen when mob mentality rules.Sorry for your loss, North Delta, but to the teens who took pleasure in another’s

pain? Foul conduct, all around.

Premier Christy Clark’s shift ing posi-tion on the Harmonized Sales Tax fi nally appears to have come to rest.

Her government is preparing to “fi x the HST,” and the terms of that fi x will be made available before people mark their ballots in a mail-in vote in June, Clark told reporters at the legislature last week.

Th ere has been a fl urry of activity on the HST in recent days, and a few things are becoming clear. Clark and Finance Minister Kevin Falcon are preparing to do what I’ve been saying for months the government must do – make a solemn vow to cut the HST rate to 11 per cent as soon as they can.

And in keeping with Clark’s fondness for populist, headline-hunting gestures, the government will also likely rebate the HST on bicycles and bicycle helmets, and possibly fi tness club memberships as well.

A couple of other “family-fi rst” exemp-tions may also be gleaned from the town halls, online surveys and polling that are currently going on.

A well-known polling fi rm was in the fi eld

last week, asking not only about people’s impressions of their new premier and oppo-sition leader, but also their view towards a reduction in the HST rate. Win or lose the mail-in referendum on the tax in June or July, the B.C. Liberals are getting ready for a fall general election.

Falcon estimates that cutting one point from the HST would cost the provincial treasury $850 million. Given that revenue from the HST is running well ahead of the fi nance ministry’s estimates, that fi gure could be low.

Th e government’s independent panel issued its report last week, and it confi rms that the HST is bringing in more revenue than expected. Going back to the PST would not only trigger huge costs of paying back federal transition funds and reconstructing a provincial sales tax offi ce, it would cost the B.C. government more than $500 million in net revenue in the fi rst year, and more aft er that.

Here’s one reason why HST revenue is higher than originally projected. Contrary to the apocalyptic predictions of some in the restaurant industry, the panel com-piled Statistics Canada figures and found

that B.C. restaurant sales rose by three per cent in the first seven months of the HST. That’s exactly the same increase as the rest of the country, despite the suppos-edly crushing effect of the tax and B.C.’s new impaired driving regulations.

Jobs, Tourism and Innova-tion Minister Pat Bell has pitched in as a host for the telephone town hall program that continued this week.

These giant conference calls were to be staged Tuesday evening in the Okanagan, Fraser Valley and northern and central Vancouver Island. The program wraps up Thursday evening with calls to Richmond, South Delta, the North Shore, Victoria

and Vancouver.Bell said his call for the Interior and

North Coast had more than 30,000 people on the line. Some were still upset about the HST, while others had misconcep-tions about what costs it does and doesn’t increase, he said. And lifting the tax from bicycles was a popular choice.

I continue to get e-mails from people who are misinformed about the HST. One reader said he is paying it on heating oil. I suggested he check his bill again, and there it was, a rebate for the seven-per-cent provincial portion. The GST applied before and it continues to apply now.

These telephone town halls have gone a long way towards putting the discussion on a factual basis. Voters may yet be per-suaded to keep the HST.

THE AMERICANS are our biggest market for our good and services.

Th ey pay 50 per cent more for their private health care than we do for our public health care. Canadian public health care makes our products signifi cantly cheaper to market.

Th is competitive advantage that we enjoy is being lost as more of our health care is privatized. Canada now has the longest hospital waiting lists of all the Organization for Economic Co-

operation and Development.Long public waiting lists for medical tests and

diagnostics are forcing people into private clinics for timely care. Th e increasing number of private for-profi t clinics are not easing pressure on the public system but instead they are increasing the wait times for public hospitals as they bleed necessary resources away.

Surrey Memorial Hospital Emergency Depart-ment currently has 90,000 visits per year with

100,000 visits projected by 2020. We are not building nearly enough to meet even short-term capacity.

Surrey has one-fi ft h of the provincial average of acute care beds. We are grossly under-served. We pay for Tim Horton’s care in Surrey. We are on the U.S. border but we are not yet absorbed. We are in a no man’s land. Let’s renew our fi ght for Cana-dian public health care before its just a memory.

Patrick O’Connor, Surrey

THE FEDERAL Conservative party won with 167 seats in the House of Commons when it needed only 155 seats for a majority. Where did these seats come from?

Th ese additional seats did not come from the four Western prov-inces. Th e four Western provinces had a total of 72 Conservative seats before and aft er this past election.

Th e Harper government lost fi ve seats in Quebec, but gained four of them back in Atlantic Canada and the territories.

Th e additional Conservative party seats came from Ontario, where the Tories went from 51 seats to 73 seats – a gain of 22 seats.

Th at is, the Harper government won a majority without depending on Quebec and the Atlantic prov-inces.

Outside of Quebec, the NDP gained only nine seats. In Quebec, the NDP replaced the Bloc as the winning party. A Pyrrhic victory.

Fred PerrySurrey

Not optimistic about the next four years

Following the election, in my view we can expect in the next four years: Th e systematic dismantling of Medicare; oil tankers plying the inner passes of the West Coast; the selling of our water to private American companies (which will then sell that water back to us for a profi t); the possible return of capital punishment; no adequate monies allocated for ensuring clean water for Aboriginals on reservations; banks and large multi-national companies getting even more in terms of extraordi-nary tax breaks; little in the way of consumer protection legislation; continued contempt for Parliament and its rules (and precedent-setting “conventions” of Parliamentary practice); no electoral reform; And U.S. Homeland Security offi cials defi ning both border and immigra-tion policies for Canada, diminish-ing our sovereignty permanently.

I am sad that our national col-lective choice (politically) refl ects an attitude and social values that say, “Me fi rst all the way” and also say: money and profi t will be the foundation for most ethical deci-sion making in Canada, for at least the next four years.

Sukh Dhaliwal will be missed

THROUGH MY community service I have had a lot of interaction with politicians in this area.

Former Member of Parliament Sukh Dhaliwal has defi nitely been a go-to-guy. He is one of a few politicians who will open his wallet, as well as his mouth, in support of a good community project.

We worked together to raise the money for Operation Remem-brance, which placed headstones on the unmarked graves of some 30 First World War veterans, as well as other projects.

Sukh, thanks for your commit-ment to those of us who believe in community service and for putting a very successful business life on hold to be our Member of Parliament. You will be missed.

Time for online voting

WE LIVE in a technologically advanced country in technologically advanced times and yet the polling stations are organized in a manner that would be comparable to Th ird World countries’ means and abilities.

Here we are with the whole world practically online yet we have to vote by standing in line for an hour, prove your identity and address at two dif-ferent tables, take paper and pencil and place a black X against the candidate of your choice.

Why can’t polling be done online? Revenue Canada provides our names and addresses to the election authorities, surely they can design an online voting system tied to your Social Insurance Number and postal code. By providing you with a PIN either online or by mail, the person with that SIN number can only vote once and that would render the PIN number invalid soon aft er the vote. Th is way there cannot be duplicate votes.

Perhaps if voting was done online,

more eligible people would vote.It is high time to move on to other

modern methods.

Discriminatory signs

I AGREE with A. Bayer’s recent letter about election signs that contain any other language than English or French. Th is should be a clear violation of election laws and is a blatant act of discrimination against all the other ethnic groups this fair country contains.

How dare these so-called can-didates slap the rest of us in the face while they obviously pander to a certain group? Any so-called candidate that produced these signs should have to answer in a public forum as to why this was done. Th en the rest of us could hear what their intentions are and make an informed decision whether or not they deserve to be in government or run out of town on a rail.

Refl ections on an election...

Health care is lacking in Surrey

FILE PHOTO / THE LEADER

Letter-writers look back on last week’s federal election, which resulted in Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s Conservative party earning its fi rst majority in the House of Commons.

Minimum wage hike hits hard

WHEN CHRISTY CLARK first took office, she proclaimed herself a premier for working families.

Shortly after, she made an announcement increasing the minimum wage within the province.

Although I cannot disagree the minimum wage should be increased, I believe the situa-tions this increase affects should have been looked into more.

We have two children, and both myself and my wife work. Full-time paid care for our children is a must, as we do not have family who are able to help out.

In order to meet our work schedules as well as juggle our kids school times, we decided to have a live-in nanny.

The increase in the minimum wage directly hits our pocket-book and will hit it hard.

When the wage is increased to $8.75, it costs us an extra $30 a week. Manageable.

When the wage will be increased to $10.25, it will cost us an extra $4,680 a year. I can’t speak for everybody else in the province, but neither myself, nor my wife received a wage increase of this amount.

There has been no increase to the amount we can deduct for room and board on a weekly basis (it’s higher in Ontario than in B.C.), nor has there been an increase in the amount we can claim for child care expenses.

I can only assume that the average cost of daycare within the province will also rise due to these circumstances.

We have spoken with other families who share the same concerns, and obviously, nobodyis hearing them.

Chalk this situation up to one less family vacation or sports program that our family can afford this year.

I find it hard to believe the government has not heard of this concern before.

Is this going to be addressed, or do we have to accept this much like we have to accept a toll over the new Port Mann Bridge?

EX-REPORTER Ron Bencze entered not-guilty pleas to multiple child sex charges in Surrey Provincial Court last Wednesday morning.

Bencze did not appear in court himself, but had his lawyer enter the pleas on his behalf.

Th e Surrey resident is charged with nine off ences involving three victims. Th e off ences are alleged to have taken place between 2001 and 2011.

Benze, 44, was fi rst arrested in January, charged with sexual assault, two counts of sexual interference

with a person under 16 and two of invitation to sexual touching involving a person under 16. A further four charges – two counts of sexual assault and two counts of sexual interference involving persons under the age of 16 – were laid last month.

Bencze, from Surrey, is married with three children. He had been a reporter with Global TV since 2004, and had more than 20 years

experience in the news industry. He was fi red from his job at Global TV last month.

Bencze is not in custody, but has been ordered not to have any contact with his alleged victims or any other children.

An eight-day preliminary inquiry – where a judge decides whether there is enough evidence to proceed to trial – is scheduled for Jan. 24, 2011.

THE FOUR RCMP offi cers involved in the tasering of Polish immi-grant Robert Dziekanski in 2007 will all face criminal perjury charges in connection with their testimony about the incident before the Braidwood Inquiry.

Special prosecutor Richard Peck made the recommendation – which the province’s criminal justice branch has accepted – aft er con-ducting an independent assessment of the allega-tions of misconduct against the Mounties involved.

Peck recommended against laying any other charges for the actual altercation or the ensuing investigation of Dziekanski’s death, concluding there was no substantial likelihood of conviction.

Th e four RCMP offi cers involved in the October 2007 incident at

Vancouver International Airport were Cpl. Benja-min “Monty” Robinson, Const. Kwesi Millington, Const. Bill Bentley and Const. Gerry Rundel.

Robinson was last month ordered to stand trial on a separate charge of obstruction of justice in connection with the October 2008 crash in Tsawwassen that killed 21-year-old motorcyclist Orion Hutchinson. He

is currently suspended from the RCMP. Th e other three offi cers are still working in varying capacities.

Special prosecutors are appointed in rare cases to avoid any real or perceived improper infl uence on decisions of B.C.’s criminal justice branch.

Justice Th omas Braidwood, in his report released last June aft er a

lengthy public inquiry, found the offi cers’ use of the Taser was unjustifi ed and their later statementsincluded “deliberate misrepresentations” that contradicted the cellphone video evidence recorded by a bystander.

Th e four claimed a combative stapler-wielding Dziekanski was advancing and posed an imminent threat to them.

Dziekanski, who wan-dered for hours unaided at the airport before becoming frustrated, wastasered fi ve times and died within minutes of cardiac arrest.

Crown had previ-ously decided not to lay charges against the offi cers involved.

SFU criminologist Rob Gordon agrees there was little chance a charge like assault would have stuck.

“Th e Crown would be hard pressed to prove that the four offi cers in the short time they had with Mr. Dziekanski could have formed the necessary mental intent to kill him or otherwise harm him,” Gordon said.

He expects a lengthy perjury case to deter-mine whether the offi cers, sworn to tell the truth, lied under oath.

“It’s a serious off ence because it cuts to the heart of the trial pro-cess,” Gordon said of the alleged perjury.

Dziekanski’s mother Sofi a Cisowski said in a statement she was pleased with the charges and hoped “justice will fi nally be achieved in the death of my son.”

Th e maximum sen-tence for perjury is 14 years in jail, although nobody had ever received more than six until this January, when Air India bomb-maker Inderjit Singh Reyat was handed a nine-year sentence for lying under oath at the Air India bombing trial.

Th e provincial criminal justice branch has indicated it won’t disclose detailed reasons why other charges weren’t recommended until aft er the perjury case is fi nished, in order to protect the integrity of that prosecution.

Th e perjury charges will proceed by direct indictment, meaning there will be no prelimi-nary inquiry.

A MAN SENTENCED to six years behind bars for kidnapping, robbing, beating and confi ning a man in Surrey has had his sentence reduced on the grounds the trial judge didn’t fairly con-sider his attempts to turn his life around.

B.C. Court of Appeal Justice Daphne Smith, backed by Justice Ian Donald and Justice Mary Saunders, reduced Nor-man Clay Stanton’s 2006 sen-tence last Monday (May 2).

Stanton’s was convicted in connection to a 2001 incident where two men were lured to a suite in Surrey to persuade them to give up their share in a marijuana grow operation. Stanton and another man proceeded to take one man’s vehicle, and confi ned both men for two-and-a-half hours, dur-ing which time one man was physically assaulted.

Stanton fi led appeals from his convictions and sentence and was released on bail pending his conviction appeal. Th at appeal was heard March 19, 2010 and

dismissed the following month. He returned to custody April 29, 2010 pending his sentence appeal.

Th e judgment says Stanton, now 43, (he was 34 when the off ence occurred) has a criminal record spanning 15 years, but has not been charged with any new off ences since 2001.

Shortly before his last crime, he had begun to make changes to his life, obtaining his “hoist ticket” which gained him steady employment in construction. Employers, according to the court judgement, described Stanton as “a family man with a positive attitude” and “a dedicated and hard working individual.”

Th e Crown had sought a three- to six-year sentence, while Stanton’s lawyer sought a sentence between 18 months and two years.

In imposing his six-year sen-tence, the trial judge outright rejected Stanton’s eff orts to turn his life around.

“I am satisfi ed that I am deal-ing with a man who, for many years, has presented at least two

faces to the world,” the judge said. “He was a persistent crook, and, in my respectful view, dyed in the wool thug.

“In short, there is no suf-fi cient basis for anything more than a pious hope that he has changed his ways.”

Th e Appeal Court justices, however, disagreed with the trial judge’s assessment, saying he erred in failing to consider Stanton’s rehabilitation eff orts and imposed an “unfi t” sentence that was outside the range of sentences for similar off ences.

“Th ere was evidence that Mr. Stanton had taken a num-ber of positive steps to distance himself from his previous criminal lifestyle,” wrote Justice Smith in his decision to reduce the jail sentence.

“Mr. Stanton was entitled to have these eff orts at rehabilita-tion considered by the trial judge in arriving at a fi t sen-tence. Th e trial judge’s failure to do so was, in my respectful view, unreasonable.”

THE B.C. government will work with the B.C. Teachers’ Federation rather than continue a court battle over control of class size and special needs support in public schools, Education Min-ister George Abbott said last Th ursday.

Th e government has been studying a ruling two weeks ago from the B.C. Supreme Court, which said the govern-ment infringed on teachers’ constitutional right to bargain with its 2002 legislation that removed class size and special needs support levels from the union contract.

Abbott said the gov-ernment’s legal advice was not to appeal the ruling, because of a landmark 2007 decision by the Supreme Court

of Canada that struck down similar legislation altering health care support workers’ union contracts.

In the health care case, Canada’s highest court extended the constitu-tional right to freedom of association to include collective bargaining for the fi rst time.

In the school case, Justice Susan Griffi n of the B.C. Supreme Court gave the B.C. govern-ment a year to work out an alternative to the 2002 legislation.

Th e BCTF has fi led thousands of union grievances over class sizes and the number of students with special needs in classrooms around the province, as well as pursuing the issue in court.

Abbott said he called BCTF president Susan Lambert and B.C. School

Trustees Association president Michael McEvoy to tell them he wants to see a negotiated solution.

But Abbott acknowl-edged that the govern-ment could end up legislating new rules if negotiations don’t pro-duce a deal.

Aft er Griffi n’s court decision, the BCTF estimated that the gov-ernment would have to add $275 million to the education ministry bud-get to reduce class sizes and provide support staff to restore conditions from 2002.

Th e BCTF’s current contract expires at the end of June. It was the fi rst-ever negotiated contract with the B.C.’s 40,000 teachers, aft er a series of contracts that were imposed by NDP and B.C. Liberal govern-ments.

METRO VANCOUVER leaders are adding their voices to a new coali-tion calling for reforms to increase the supply of rental housing in the region.

Groups representing tenants, landlords, home builders, realtors, developers and non-profi ts have formed the Rental Housing Supply Coalition to push for changes.

Co-chair Wayne Wright, the mayor of New Westminster, said the rental shortage in the Metro region is reaching a crisis point.

“We just won’t have workers,” he predicted at an April 29 Metro board meeting. “We have 40,000

people a year coming in and there’s no housing for them. Th at’s the kind of thing that breeds anarchism.”

More than 80,000 residents in the region spend more than 30 per cent of their income on rent and another 30,000 spend over half.

Rental demand will only continue to go up in Metro Vancouver because of high real estate costs, Wright said, yet only about 600 purpose-built rental units are being added each year – far short of an estimated 6,500 new units needed annually.

Th e region’s oldest buildings in areas like New Westminster and Vancouver are nearing the end of their lives, Wright said, adding a

new housing policy is needed before many of them start to come down.

Burnaby Mayor Derek Corrigan said the province should allow local cities to create rental housing zones where existing apartment buildings can’t later be converted to condos.

Victoria has so far resisted that idea, he said, apparently because it deprives land owners of profi t.

He said local cities have tried all sorts of concessions to encourage more rental construction.

“We keep looking for ways to stimulate rental development,” Cor-rigan said. “But no matter how hard we work, the numbers don’t.”

Marg Gordon, CEO of the B.C. Apartment Owners and Managers

Association, told Metro directors the elimination of federal tax concessions for rental construction in the 1980s has resulted in land owners developing condos almost exclusively since then.

Ottawa needs to reverse that policy, she said, or fi nd other ways to stimulate rental housing con-struction.

Increased use of basement suites or laneway homes in single-family areas aren’t a complete answer, she added.

Th e supply of new basement suites being created is dwindling and may eventually run out, she said. And house owners can demand the space back, so suites are

an inferior substitute for purpose-built rental buildings that off er ten-ants reliable permanent homes.

“We’re pulling out all the stops and we can barely move the needle on getting new rental built,” added Vancouver Mayor Gregor Robert-son.

Wright said local governments can make land available for rental housing, increase densities, reduce fees cities charge and speed up the approval processes.

Metro has launched the website RentersSpeakUp.org where renters can post their own stories to put a face on the statistics and add to the pressure for reform.

SPEEDERS AND other ticketed traffi c viola-tors may pay more for their auto insurance so drivers with a clean record can get deeper discounts.

Th at’s part of a major overhaul of ICBC pro-posed by the public auto insurer that includes the shedding of 350 jobs.

Th e changes are subject to approval by regulators.

But the biggest move is a shift to a driving

record model for calculating premium discounts, instead of relying solely on the at-fault claims history.

Discounts now top out at 43 per cent for drivers with a long claims-free record.

ICBC spokesman Mark Jan Vrem said it should cost less for someone with a clean driving record and no traffi c tickets over the previous three years.

Drivers with violation tickets in that period would pay more than

they do now, even if they have no claims.

“We think it’s unfair for the good drivers to be subsidizing the rates for the bad drivers,” Jan Vrem said.

But he was unable to show how that would impact various drivers, saying details of the new discount frame-work are still being worked out.

Nor is it clear whether the new system will replace ICBC’s relatively new Driver Risk Premium (DRP)

system that already dings motorists nabbed for drunk driving and excessive speeding.

Introduced in 2009, that system was her-alded as a way to make high-risk drivers pay more, even ones who don’t own or insure a vehicle.

It charges motorists an extra $320 per year for three years if caught excessive speeding. And a never-implemented second phase was sup-posed to charge drivers $350 per year if they rack up three or more lesser traffi c tickets.

While the DRP system charges more for risky drivers, Jan Vrem said that money doesn’t yet directly go to reducing good drivers’ premiums.

“Th ey don’t provide the kind of break a good driver should get for their good driving habits,” he said. “We think off ering our cus-tomers a carrot instead of just a stick is more appropriate.”

Jan Vrem said details of the changes, includ-ing revisions to the DRP system, will be fi led with the B.C. Utilities Com-mission this summer.

ICBC expects oppo-nents will try to con-vince regulators to reject the plan on the basis that speeders shouldn’t be punished if they have no accidents.

Jan Vrem said the cor-poration will be ready to counter those and other arguments.

If approved, the changes would take eff ect in 2013 or 2014, he said.

Speeding tickets racked up now would aff ect insurance dis-counts then, he said, urging motorists to slow down and drive safely.

Th e 350 jobs to be reduced in the claims division by the end of 2014 will include 70 management positions and will all be phased in through attrition.

“ICBC has a complex organization structure that has as many as seven layers of manage-ment between the CEO and frontline workers,” the document says, and that in future there will be no more than fi ve or six layers of manag-ers and supervisors, depending on the divi-sion.

It says there are no immediate plans to outsource more work but there will be some consolidation of offi ce space.

A COALITION OF busi-ness groups is pressing Metro Vancouver to redraw its regional growth strategy, say-ing it could stifl e job creation and stunt development.

Th e new master plan governing how the region grows, okayed by all cities except Coquitlam, is going to a non-binding dispute resolution process to iron out the impasse with that council.

Th e B.C. Chamber of Commerce, Business Council of B.C. and Urban Development Institute – calling themselves the Business Coalition for a Sustain-able Region – say the plan contains critical fl aws and vests too much power with the regional board.

“We look at it as a no-growth plan,” said Maureen Enser, executive director of the Urban Development Institute. “It takes things the way they are and freezes them for the next 30 years.”

It will be too diffi cult, time-consuming and bureaucratic to amend the plan in the future to meet needs that can’t be anticipated today, the coalition argues.

“We’re adding more layers or gatekeepers,” Enser said.

She said businesses or developers wanting a development passed that might require approval at the Metro board level may have to lobby nearly every council in the region in advance to ensure the project isn’t defeated.

“It’s a great vehicle for anybody who wants to oppose a project,” Enser said.

She denied the coali-tion is against the plan’s urban containment boundary or its key goal of concentrating growth in urban areas to avoid more sprawl.

But she said the plan lacks fl exibility, particu-larly in terms of where industry and business can locate.

Enser said 70 per cent of land in the region is already protected from development by the Agricultural Land Reserve and the Green Zone, which becomes conservation and rec-reation areas under the new strategy.

“We’re dealing with basically 30 per cent of the land that remains, much of which has been already developed,” she said.

“We’ve got a very limited land supply. We’ve got to use it very carefully.”

Th e coalition has off ered few specifi cs on how they’d change the document but wants its concerns addressed when talks begin between Metro and Coquitlam reps.

Burnaby Mayor Derek Corrigan, chair of the regional planning com-mittee, said the business

groups had years and multiple rounds of pub-lic consultations to table their concerns.

“It’s a bit late to start jumping up and com-plaining about the plan,” he said.

Corrigan said he doesn’t understand why the business groups wouldn’t welcome the land-use certainty the growth strategy will deliver – unless they have the “nefarious” aim of swaying a “stupid council” without facing the safeguards of the regional board.

Th e 60-day non-bind-

ing process to resolve Coquitlam’s objections must start by May 16.

Metro politicians had wanted arbitration but were overruled by the provincial government.

Corrigan and others fear the ratifi cation of the growth plan could drag past the November civic elections, leaving the accord at risk of unravel-ling aft er new councils take power.

Coquitlam councillors say the plan is too incon-sistent from city to city because because multiple exemptions were made to win each council’s approval.

‘No growth’ will thwart business: Coalition

Metro strategy under fi re as barrier to development

THE INDEPENDENT panel reviewing the impact of B.C.’s Harmo-nized Sales Tax has con-cluded that it increases prices for 17 per cent of an average family’s purchases, totalling $350 a year.

The panel was appointed by the B.C. government as part of preparations for a mail-in referendum on the HST that begins in mid-June. The panel released its report Wednesday, after a delay to avoid release during the federal election.

It finds that the B.C. government is getting more revenue than it expected in the first year of the HST. The finance ministry’s initial projections were that rebates for low-income families, home energy use and other exemptions would result in a net loss in the first year, with increases as the economy grows.

The report con-cludes that going back to the former provincial sales tax would cost the prov-ince $531 million in net tax revenues in

the first year, with the amount increasing in subsequent years. That is in addition to the repayment of a $1.6 billion transition fund paid in instalments by the federal govern-ment to B.C.

One reason for the higher revenues is that the HST hasn’t deterred spending as expected.

The report notes that while restau-rants reported a drop in sales when the HST increased taxes by seven per cent in July 2010, that is not borne out by Statistics Canada measure-ment. It found that between June 2010 and January 2011, restaurant industry sales increased three per cent in B.C., the same as the national increase over that time.

The report also undercuts the govern-ment’s estimate of jobs created due to new business investment. It calculates that the HST will generate 24,400 “better paying” jobs by the end of the

decade. The B.C. gov-ernment has been cit-ing a previous study by University of Calgary economist Jack Mintz that projected 113,000 new jobs by 2020.

Finance Minister Kevin Falcon shrugged off the lower estimate

of jobs, saying the public is skeptical about any forecasts of future job growth.

“I think what this report tells us is that it may be a low of

24,000 jobs, or it could be as high as 113,000 jobs, but there will be lots of new jobs cre-ated,” Falcon said.

The panel’s report is available at the pro-vincial government’s dedicated website, www.hstinbc.ca

The website also has a new survey form where people can make recommenda-tions on possible changes to the HST.

Premier Christy Clark confi rmed last Wednesday that the government will off er proposed changes to the HST before people vote in the referendum.

NDP LEADER Adrian Dix proposed legisla-tion Th ursday to ban the use of “cosmetic pesticides” across the province, then challenged Premier Christy Clark to take action on a bill she says she supports.

Clark was asked about the issue last Wednesday, and replied that she has supported such a ban for years. She said she wants to work with the Opposition

and the public to work out the best way to further restrict the use of lawn and garden weed killers, a move that has already been made by several other prov-inces and numerous municipali-ties.

Clark stopped short of say-ing the B.C. Liberal government would support the NDP bill,

which refers to “pesti-cides” that mainly tar-get insects and are not generally considered

“cosmetic.” Clark also repeatedly referred to “cosmetic pesticides” as the target of the proposed legislation.

“I want to fi gure out a way that we

can engage the NDP and engage the public, engage rural British Columbia to decide

what that legislation should look like,” Clark said.

Dix said the NDP introduced similar legislation on Earth Day last April, but the government took no action. Ontario and Quebec have already banned “cosmetic pesticides” and have seen broad compliance from the public, he said.

Th e most common target of such bans is herbicides used to kill dandelions and other broad-leafed weeds.

Fraser Valley Chiefs shortstop Jovan Ewusie puts a tag on Mike Krische of Langley Blaze , getting the out at second base during a B.C. Premier Baseball League game at Whalley Stadium on Sunday.

by Rick Kupchuk

TOM ROBSON deserved a better fate.Th e Langley Blaze pitcher was near-

perfect in the second game of Sunday’s B.C. Premier Baseball League (BCPBL) double header against the Fraser Val-ley Chiefs at Whalley Stadium. Th e 17-year-old from Ladner struck out 10 of the 21 batters he faced, and allowed just one walk and a single by Jordan McComb.

Unfortunately for Robson, McComb scored on one of the two Langley errors, and Chiefs pitcher Ty Walker tossed a no-hitter in a 1-0 Fraser Valley victory. McComb was on third base when the Blaze catcher fi elded a short hit, and overthrew fi rst base.

“Tom Robson is the best pitcher in Canada,” said Chiefs head coach Ernie Hawkins. “He’s been picked for the national team, and he’s a beauty. He’ll be a high draft pick.

“But Ty Walker just threw a better game, he no-hit them. We’re glad to get the win for Ty.”

Walker, an 18-year-old Sands Second-ary student, walked just one batter, strik-ing out fi ve for a complete-game win, his third in as many starts this season.

Th e win allowed the Chiefs to split the double header with the BCPBL leaders. Langley won the fi rst game 4-1, with Kyle Joel throwing a two-hitter while allowing just one walk. Joel threw a per-fect game last month in Abbotsford at the Cardinals Invitational.

Fraser Valley is now in fi ft h place in the 13-team 18-and-under elite league with a 7-3 won-lost record, just a game and-a-half back of fi rst place Langley.

Th e Chiefs won two of the three games

played in the past week, as they edged the Coquitlam Reds 3-2 last Wednesday in Whalley.

Nathan de la Feraude started on the mound for the Chiefs, leaving the game aft er fi ve innings having given up two earned runs on one hit and six walks.

Alec Dunbar got the win in relief while pitching one shut out inning, with Dylan John-son blanking the Reds in the seventh frame for the save.

Trailing 2-1 in the bottom of the sixth inning, Fraser Valley got the win when Declan Murphy and Brae-den Allemann scored on a Coquitlam fi elding error with two out.

Th e Chiefs play four times against the North Shore Twins (6-6 won-lost) next weekend, hosting two games Saturday at Whalley Stadium before traveling to North Vancouver for a pair Sunday.

Th e Twins were swept in their double header last Sunday at Mackie Park by the North Delta Blue Jays.

North Delta snapped a 3-3 tie with three runs in the bottom of the sixth inning in the fi rst game, hanging on for a 6-5 victory.

Jays batters collected six hits in the contest, with Bryan Elias getting a pair while scoring two runs and driving in a third.

North Delta had 10 hits of North Shore pitching in game two, a 7-4 win. Cam Frick scored once and batted in another on three hits, while Matt Pentland had a pair of hits with two runs batted in.

Now in sixth place at 7-5, the Blue Jays host the 1-12 Vancouver Cannons tomorrow (Th ursday) at Mackie Park, before traveling to Vancouver Island for double headers Saturday against the 9-2 Nanaimo Pirates and Sunday with the 8-3 Parksville Royals.

Fraser Valley Chiefs edge Langley Blaze 1-0

B.C. LIONS kicker Sean Whyte is heading east to Montreal, aft er the Lions head coach/general manager Wally Buono dealt the Surrey resident to the Alouettes during the Canadian Football League draft Sunday.

Whyte, a former White Rock-South Surrey Titan and Big Kahuna Ram, was traded for a first-round draft pick in 2012. Despite being with the Lions since 2008 – he started as a practice roster player before making the main roster – Whyte had a limited role with his hometown team as he’d been stuck behind 41-year-old Paul McCallum, himself a former Ram, on the depth chart.

“I’m very excited and very happy to get an opportunity to play,” Whyte said from Montreal Monday afternoon, shortly

after undergoing a physical with his new team.

“I’m getting the chance to play for a great team in a beauti-ful city, and I’m really excited.”

Whyte, 25, said it was at times frustrating playing behind McCallum, but understood his situation, and takes nothing from positives from his time with the Lions.

“It was frustrating at times, sure, but with Wally you have to go through stages of learning, and I know he always had a plan for me,” Whyte said.

“When I talked to Wally, one of the last things he said to me was that he wouldn’t have sent me just any-where, he wanted me to have a real shot (at

being a starter).”“Sean deserves an

opportunity to become a fulltime kicker in the CFL and he will get that in Montreal,” Buono said in a release.

Whyte, who was signed by B.C. in 2007 as a territorial junior exemp-

tion, may finally get a chance to play in Montreal, who has thus far chose not to

re-sign their own vet-eran kicker, free agent Damon Duval.

However, Whyte will have some competition for the starting job, as the Als still have American kicker/punter Colt David under contract, and also used their first-round pick in last weekend’s draft to select Brody McK-night, a kicker/punter from the University of Montana.

“It’s what the game is all about – competi-tion,” Whyte said. “But I’ve always prepared as though I’m going to start, and I don’t think Montreal traded for me to be a backup, so I’m headed into the season as though it’s my job.”

Maya’s intellectual peak at the age of 18 months, when the little girl became ill with a fever.

“I’d compare her to other kids and see not quite what the other children were doing,” says her mom Nicole. “But she was still progress-ing, which is why it was hard for me to get her diagnosed.”

Aft er a while, Maya’s diff erences became more obvious.

She would fall over easily, she wouldn’t speak a word and would distance herself socially

from others, never wanting to leave the house.

She was diagnosed with autism at the age of two. Today, a smile while looking into her mother’s eyes is considered a major interaction.

“She was a fi ve-year-old still in a stroller,” Nicole says. “Just to get her out... she had the comfort of being in her own little world.”

up easily.Getting Maya outside in the

community with her family has been a big challenge for years.

She has anxieties her parents recognize but still don’t quite understand.

Th e smell of leather, for instance, sends her into fi ts.

“Payless Shoes is never going be a place that she can tolerate,

so there’s a lot of buying shoes and taking them home and trying them on,” her mother explains.

In once incident, Maya had a meltdown at the house of a fam-ily friend. Th e reason, the friend deduced, was that two doors down, someone was cutting wood with an electric saw.

Th e noise was barely percep-tible to the others, but Maya was ultra-sensitive to it.

Th e walk along the path to her

school has always been a source of tantrums, as are line-ups at stores.

“When you’re out as a family, something can be ‘off ’ and she full-on tries to get away and it becomes a situation where you can’t go out.”

as a new family pet, is among the growing ranks of autism support dogs in B.C.

“For me, she’s like my anti-anxiety pill,” explains Nicole. “I know once I hook Maya up to her, nothing’s going to happen to Maya. She’s not going to have the opportunity to bolt.”

It took a few months with a strong, furry anchor for Maya to learn that it did no good to try to take off in a grocery store line or on the pathway to school.

She simply gave up.Th e relationship between Maya

and PePe remains conservative.“Th e purpose of the dog is

not to make Maya independent,” Nicole explains.

“It’s not like a seeing-eye dog. It’s not that ‘girl and her dog running across the fi eld to each other’ sentimental thing that people picture, yet it’s still such a huge impact on our family dynamic and how we operate.”

PePe will keep Maya’s brother and sister company, for instance, while Nicole and her husband Darshan deal with a Maya crisis.

Nicole believes that some bonding between Maya and PePe developed in Disneyland last year.

“Why is this fun?” their eyes pleaded in unison.

But the family trip would never have been possible without PePe.

Th ere are other new opportu-nities for Maya with PePe at her side.

Now 10, she has got a handle on swimming, but doesn’t under-stand skating – “Why would you go to this cold place and slip on the ground?” asks her mother rhetorically. “She always had a look on her face that says this doesn’t make any sense at all.”

Training of dogs to assist children with autism began in 2008 as more requests came into BC Guide Dog Services, which provides dogs to assist people with visual impairment.

“It wasn’t lost on us that there was more that could be done,” says Autism Support Dogs chair-man Bill Th ornton.

Since 2008, 11 dogs have graduated and been provided for children with autism. Seven more are expected to graduate by the end of 2011.

Since the Ladner-based Autism Support Dogs is essen-tially an unstaff ed fundraising arm of BC Guide Dogs, the main body provides the admin-istration, dogs and training for autism support by four certifi ed instructors.

Th e friendly, intelligent and docile Labrador dogs are ideal for both types of work.

Th ornton says there are plans for a regional training centre for autism support dogs.

“I believe it’s going to be as large as the guide dog program. We’ve got a lot of people apply-ing.”

Disneyland: Trip would havebeen impossible without PePeFrom page 24

• Positive changes in the child’s behaviour – lower aggression and frustration;

• Th e child is comforted when upset;

• Meeting the needs of parents for a degree of predictability in social settings for the child and themselves.
