Review backs B.C.’s ambulance priority shift

Taxpayers on the hook for police overtime at summit Residents foot part of the bill for yearly Surrey Regional Economic Summit

Paramedics’ union says cost control is behind the new policy by Jeff Nagel

by Kevin Diakiw

AN EXTERNAL review has endorsed B.C.’s contentious reallocation

SURREY TAXPAYERS spent more than $30,000 in police overtime costs and tickets for city staff at this year’s Surrey Regional Economic Summit. Surrey’s sixth-annual summit – held on Feb. 18 –included former prime ministers Julia Gillard (Australia), George Papandreou (Greece) and Ehud Barak (Israel). Surrey has long said the cost of speakers at the yearly event is completely covered through ticket sales and sponsorships. The city won’t disclose the cost of the speakers, nor the amount received by way Linda Hepner of sponsorships or ticket sales, citing that those things are within the control of the Pace Group, which organizes the event. However, taxpayers did cover the cost of police overtime for this year’s event, a figure that reached $24,300. There was an additional $5,600 in officer amenities, such as food, portable toilets, etc.

of ambulance service in favour of the most urgent cases. Lower Mainland cities, fire departments and their unions have denounced the changes introduced in November, saying dozens of categories of calls have been downgraded to slower responses, resulting in extreme waits of more than an hour in some cases. Ambulances now head to many of the downgraded calls without the lights and sirens they used in the past, a change that’s expected to reduce the risk of crashes with other motorists. B.C. Emergency Health Services (BCEHS) contends the longer waits have averaged just 10 minutes slower in the Lower Mainland, but have enabled slightly faster ambulance responses to critical emergencies where extra seconds can save lives. The report by Alan Craig, the retired deputy chief of Toronto Emergency Services, says the BCEHS Resource Allocation Plan takes a “careful and prudent approach” based on actual medical evidence that matches global best practices and is “superior” to the priority Len Garis systems used in many major jurisdictions. It agrees the lights-and-siren response carries serious risk to both paramedics and the public and should be limited to just the most urgent incidents. It also says the public needs to better understand that very few patients from 911 calls need to be rushed to hospital.

MOUNTIES ARE asking for public

help in finding the person who robbed an elderly man in Whalley. On April 26, at about 10:15 a.m., RCMP were called to a theft in the 10100-block of King George Boulevard. There they found an 87-year-old man who had just left a bank, when a man bumped into him and took the envelop containing his withdrawal. During the robbery, the senior, who uses a walker to get around, stumbled backward and began yelling for help. Witnesses Theft suspect. who came to the victim’s aid saw the suspect running northbound through the parking lot towards 101 Avenue. The suspect is described as a white male in his mid-20s, 5’6” to 5’8”, with a slim build, wearing light grey clothing similar to a track suit, with a “bowl” style haircut. The elderly male was uninjured. Anyone with further information on this incident or who may have witnessed anything suspicious in the area is asked to contact the Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS or www.solvecrime.ca

Province set to ink deal on Surrey’s former city hall Crown counsel would lease 45,000 square feet for $900K annually by Kevin Diakiw THE PROVINCE is set to ink a deal with the LEADER FILE PHOTO

The B.C. Ministry of Justice is interested in leasing half of Surrey’s former city hall, at 14245 56 Ave.

City of Surrey for the lease of the former city hall in Newton. On Monday night, Surrey council was expected to consider the lease of 45,000 square feet of the 14245 56 Ave. hall to the B.C. Ministry of Justice for use by Crown counsel and

community corrections (probation offices). A leasing agent with Colliers International told The Leader in February it was planning to lease 45,000 square feet, which would generate $900,000 annually for the city. The old hall became available when Surrey moved to a new $100-million facility in North Surrey in February. The former hall has been vacant since. Crown counsel is expected to take over the main floor of the old hall, which used to be the public areas. The leasing to the province leaves another 87,000 square feet of the building still vacant, including 21,000 square feet in the west tower, 56,000 square feet in the south tower and 10,000 square feet in the north annex.

Potential users being considered right now are universities, institutes, agencies and foundations, according to a corporate report to council. Leasing agent Dilraj Sohi said if the entire building is leased, it will generate $2 million annually, adding the former Surrey City Hall campus is well positioned for those interested in leasing. “The towers are situated on 15 acres of immaculately landscaped land, including walking trails, water features, and access to an on-site restaurant,” Sohi said earlier this year. “On-site amenities include an abundant amount of parking, elevator access, and extensive glazing allows for extensive natural light and great views.”

Emergency medicine is rapidly evolving, Craig’s report says, overturning key assumptions over the past decade. Short response times, with fire department first responders further shortening them, are no longer considered worthwhile in virtually all cases, he said. The report says emergency doctors now agree that short response times improve patient outcomes in less than one per cent of cases – just ones involving cardiac arrest and patients unable to breathe. BCEHS insists its changes have improved overall patient outcomes. While the provincial government department maintains the ambulance response changes are not about saving money, the external review suggests there is a link. Craig’s report said the public should also understand that “fixed response times for other than the most critical incidents are a major driver of EMS system costs, particularly as demand for service continues to rise.” In a conference call with reporters, Craig said cost should never be an issue with critical care, but added it may not be cost-effective to mandate speedy response times to routine non-urgent calls. “We want to put the money where it’s needed

– critical calls – not an overly strict, non-medical response to minor calls.” He gave the example of an elderly senior who wakes up with severe back pain and needs to go to hospital emergency via ambulance. Requiring the ambulance to arrive in eight minutes when that patient may then wait several hours in emergency because of their low-priority condition is not good use of public money, Craig said. Bronwyn Barter, president of the Ambulance Paramedics of B.C., said she believes the changes are aimed at at least containing the ambulance service budget. “This is a money issue and a resource issue,” Barter said. “The call volume has been increasing in the province and the resources have remained the same. We do view this as a tactic to do more with less.” The union head said front-line paramedics believe too many calls are now downgraded from code 3 with lights-andsiren to routine. “The amount of time people are waiting with a fractured hip or after a fall – it’s not appropriate that they’re waiting that long.” Surrey Fire Chief Len Garis was critical of the external review, saying Craig’s work guided the development of the BCEHS Resource Allocation Plan and he can’t be considered an independent, unbiased expert. He cited the Surrey fire department’s own independent analysis, conducted by University of the Fraser Valley professor Martha Dow, which found a doubling in wait times in Surrey for lower priority calls. “The wait times have gotten extremely long,” Garis said, adding some patients’ condition can deteriorate as a result. “I’m concerned for the public and I’m concerned for the people who have fallen through the cracks.” BCEHS has urged fire first responders to follow the plan’s recommendation that they not attend numerous types of low-priority calls where they will end up waiting longer for ambulances. But the service’s Dr. William Dick said each city council will have to decide if they want to provide a different level of service than what the plan has determined is medically necessary.

The city also paid for six tickets for staff at $499 apiece, for a total of $2,994. The Pace Group gave the city 20 complimentary tickets. That brings the city’s investment in the event to $32,894. Surrey Coun. Linda Hepner, co-chair of the summit, said whatever the city is spending, it’s proving well worth it. “The heart of the matter is where the city is going as far as vision and leadership,” Hepner said. “I think for the City of Surrey, that event has been an absolute boon, to both our reputation and the climate.” Hepner said the Mounties’ presence was “within the RCMP operational budget.” In fact, the Mounties exceeded their overtime budget by $2.7 million during the force’s fiscal year, April 1, 2013 to March 31, 2014. The overtime cost for the summit is coming out of Surrey taxpayers’ pockets. Surrey RCMP Sgt. Dale Carr said Thursday the federal government requires cities to adequately protect international dignitaries. That means Surrey taxpayers didn’t have to pay policing costs for Richard Bransen when he came in 2012, or Steve Forbes in 2010. But four other years, overtime policing costs were borne by taxpayers.

B.C. POLITICS

A timely response

RAESIDE

A

pathy in the political process has reached an all-time high in recent years, with the perception that elected representatives are not really listening to public concerns. But there was evidence last week that the provincial government is heeding public feedback – on two currently contentious issues at least. An all-party committee of MLAs has unanimously supported a proposal from Finance Minister Mike de Jong that henceforth all B.C. politicians will publish their expense receipts – including food, travel and accommodation – online. The proposal, clearly a response to the flap over legislature Speaker Linda Reid’s expenses – including nearly $5,500 in business-class air travel for her spouse, since repaid – elicited a few grumbles from NDP MLAs over the work involved in backing all expenses with receipts. But it seems MLAs overall agreed with de Jong’s assessment that steps need to be taken to restore public trust, after recent “unreasonable” expense abuses in B.C. and beyond. Meanwhile Agriculture Minister Norm Letnick has apparently taken note of written feedback from B.C. residents in amending the proposed Bill 24, which would make changes to the province’s Agricultural Land Reserve. The contentious two-zone provision remains, dividing ALR land into one area (Metro Vancouver, Vancouver Island and the Okanagan) where farmland would be protected from non-agricultural development and another (essentially the rest of B.C.) where farmers might have options to invite in “value-added” industries that could include oil and gas development. But there are indications that the impassioned words of many regarding both the need for food security in the province and a long-term commitment to preserving agricultural land have been noted and reflected in amendments. The amended legislation has received guarded endorsement from the B.C. Agriculture Council, although NDP agriculture critic Nicholas Simons says Bill 24 is still probably the worst piece of legislation he has seen. Politicians generally are masters in the art of simulated action and manipulating public opinion through carefully stage-managed response. But the BC Liberals have everything to gain by demonstrating a greater level of responsiveness to public opinion – rather than the predictable chorus of partisan support.

he NDP’s holy war against changes to the Agricultural Land Reserve got nastier last week, as it became clear it was defenders of the status quo who were being mowed down. Ever since legislation was tabled to divide the ALR into two zones, with greater emphasis on social and economic needs to help viability of farms in the Kootenay, Interior and North regions, almost all the protest has been from unaffected areas. And much of it depends on emotion rather than fact. In the legislature, Nanaimo MLA Leonard Krog rose to praise the late Dave Stupich, who birthed the ALR sacred cow as agriculture minister in 1973. Krog likened Stupich to the Biblical Daniel for his bravery in preserving farmland for our children’s children. Cowichan Valley MLA Bill Routley did his signature “jiggery pokery” routine, this time accusing cabinet minister Bill Bennett of being “giddy” at the prospect of paying off his friends with development land. Before he gets too jiggery outside the protection of the legislative chamber, he would be well advised

This was after a loud demonstration organized with the help of a fake grassroots protest machine called LeadNow, complete with slick signs and website. (LeadNow also helped round up anti-pipeline protesters this past weekend.) The media were fooled as usual, but not Summerland council. LeadNow has moved on to lining up people to flood the Agricultural Land Commission with form letters and petitions against Summerland’s plan. The B.C. Agriculture Council, whose board first supported and then objected to the ALR amendments, has clarified its objections. It wants flexibility for secondary uses extended to the prime farmland zones of the Okanagan, Fraser Valley and southern Vancouver Island.

Surgeries delayed, not cut SOME UNFORTUNATE misconcep-

tions have been created about the reduction of surgeries across Fraser Health and I would like to clarify these inaccuracies. (Re: “Fraser Health cuts surgeries to make budget,” May 6). Fraser Health is not cancelling surgeries due to budget. Patients that need surgery are getting their surgery. Fraser Health is working within our budget, as we should be, and acting as responsible stewards of the public funding we receive. Fraser Health is the fastest growing region in the province. Each year, we perform more than

84,000 surgeries. Our hospitals are responsible for deciding how to manage their individual surgery budgets, and this is done by physicians who prioritize their patient caseloads; ensuring the patients who require immediate or urgent surgery go first. The reality is that this does mean elective, lower priority, less medically needed surgeries may occur over a slightly longer period of time. This is consistent with practice across the province. We understand how frustrating it is for our patients who are waiting for surgery, and we have been working hard with our physician partners to find

innovative approaches and solutions to reduce any wait list times, and improve our efficiency and effectiveness. For example, we have our Soonest Surgery Tool, which allows patients to access information that provides the names of the surgeons most likely able to perform surgery sooner than others. Fraser Health is committed to working with our physicians to further reduce surgery wait times, ensuring patients receive the quality care they need in a timely manner.

He skates like nobody’s watching Surrey skateboarder to compete at the annual Cloverdale Rodeo and Country Fair by Kevin Diakiw DILLANGER KANE

doesn’t invest much time in skateboarding competitively. But a natural ability is bringing him to the Cloverdale Rodeo this year to compete against some of the best in the sport in the third-annual World Freestyle Roundup Skateboarding Com-

petition. The 18-year-old Surrey resident’s first encounter with boarding came from a friend of his sister’s three years ago. It was Ryan Brynelson, winner of last year’s championship at the Cloverdale Rodeo. Brynelson taught Kane some technical routines, and the proverbial hook was set.

Kane describes himself as a “hermit” with his skateboarding, meaning he doesn’t compete that much. The competition at the rodeo this year (amateur class) will be his biggest event of his skateboarding experience. Despite his casual approach to competition, he’s been placed within the top five

in his category. He describes himself as a tech-oriented skater who prefers learning complex tricks, like a no-footed handstand kick flip. That’s where the board is flipped on its side, then without touching feet to the ground, he goes into a handstand. It’s a highly technical trick that took a long time to perfect. The key to competing is getting into the right head space, Kane says. He has a trick for getting there. “I skate like no one is watching,” Kane says. He puts in his ear buds and cranks his music, likely Cage the Elephant’s “Ain’t no rest for the wicked.” When Kane isn’t boarding, he’s going to school part-time, on his way into the field of computer sciences.

The skateboard competition runs all four days of the rodeo and takes place in the Cloverdale Curling Rink. Participants are competing to win part of $10,000 in prize money. For a schedule, visit http://www. cloverdalerodeo.com/ country-fair/worldfreestyle-skateboardround-up/

Mayors gear up to unveil TransLink plan Transit referendum could take place this November, or as late as 2015

by Jeff Nagel

METRO VANCOUVER

mayors say their blueprint for new rapid transit lines and other transportation upgrades, as well as proposed new taxes to go to a referendum, will be made public next month. The almost finalized document, still under wraps after weeks of closed-door meetings, will go to a final vote of the TransLink mayors’ council in late May or early June before being sent to Transportation Minister Todd Stone, who challenged the mayors to come up with their vision of what’s needed. “A lot of folks thought perhaps we couldn’t do it,” said TransLink mayors’ council chair Richard Walton. But there’s still uncertainty among mayors as to how the public and the province will react to the specific expansion proposals and methods to pay for them. Mayors say the package will propose at least

a couple of new funding sources – the ones most talked about in the past have been an annual vehicle levy, a regional sales tax, a regional carbon tax and eventual pursuit of road pricing. “We’re doing everything we can to keep the ask down,” Walton said. “We recognize the fact the smaller the amount in general of the whole plan the more likely it is for there to be public appetite and provincial approval as well. Therefore we’ve really sharpened our pencils.” The mayors’ council intends to poll the public when the plan is released and Walton expects the province to also carefully gauge public reaction before revealing if it’s willing to approve the new taxes, contingent on a referendum. Stone has said the referendum can take place separately from the November civic elections and potentially as late as June 2015, provided an acceptable plan is tabled by the end of next month.

Greg Moore Walton said the minister has indicated the referendum will pass if there are a majority of “yes” votes counted across the entire region – there won’t be any additional requirement that it pass in a certain number of municipalities as some have suggested. He said that means the set of projects must appeal to voters in the entire region. A package heavily slanted to one part of the region could risk defeat by the large numbers of voters in Vancouver or Surrey, he noted. The province has

pledged one-third funding for major new rapid transit lines, such as the Surrey and Vancouver Broadway extensions, and to replace the Pattullo Bridge. Port Coquitlam Mayor and Metro Vancouver board chair Greg Moore says he’d prefer the referendum be part of this November’s municipal elections, instead of waiting until 2015. “The longer, frankly, that we wait to get to referendum the longer we wait to get the funding we actually need to build the system to meet the needs of today, never mind the future growth needs we have,” said Moore, who has led the work to hammer out the plan. “Every month that we don’t get new funding we’re falling further and further behind.” But he said there’s

no consensus among mayors for a November vote and he suspects it’s too early for the province as well. Walton said he understands the desire to move fast, but said success will depend on voters clearly understanding what will happen if the plan and new taxes are approved – and what will happen if it’s rejected. “If this thing is going to pass you need to have a highly informed electorate.” An earlier referendum risks a less informed, more “superficial” debate that’s mixed in with the many other civic election issues before voters, Walton said. Burnaby Mayor Derek Corrigan said the work to arrive at a near-consensus has been challenging. “There are areas that already have pass-ups

and want more service,” Corrigan said. “There are other areas saying we’re developing new density and we need transit support to do that.” He said there’s broad acceptance among cities across the region of the need for solution on Vancouver’s congested Broadway corridor, for expansion in Surrey to support growth there, better service South of the Fraser and improved bus service elsewhere. But he said some projects may have to be prioritized behind others, pushing them back a decade or more, and that debate on priorities has been intense. “There may not be unanimous agreement on all elements of it, but there will be a plan and something that people will have an opportunity to rally around,” Corrigan predicted.

Premier Christy Clark made new funding for TransLink conditional on a referendum after previously rejecting a series of requests from the mayors to authorize more money. Many mayors still fear voters will reject paying higher taxes and the Metro region will then stagnate in worsening congestion as the population climbs. Corrigan said it’s “anybody’s guess” as to whether the province will even allow all the proposals to go to referendum. He said it will be the “last straw” for many mayors already “at their breaking point” if Victoria rejects all new sources, leaving higher property taxes and transit fares as the only options.

B.C. won’t bend on MMBC: MLA New recycling system is set to take effect on May 19 by Jeff Nagel SEVERAL agricultural

business are vowing to defy Multi Material BC and refuse to pay into the new package recycling system. Kelvin McCulloch, CEO of the Buckerfield’s chain of farm supply stores, said his firm and other mainly garden suppliers will try to develop their own stewardship program to collect and recycle their packaging in compliance with provincial government regulation. He said he’s abandoned hope the government might freeze the MMBC system, set to take effect May 19, and added a court challenge

is one option if setting up a separate program proves unworkable. Several letters sent by firms including Eddi’s Wholesale Garden Supplies, Cinnabar Valley Farms and Cobs Breads have gone to government serving notice they won’t comply. McCulloch maintains MMBC is an illegitimate, unaccountable “monopoly” that businesses have been “coerced” by the province to join because there’s no real alternative. Higher fees than are charged by a similar package-and-paper recycling scheme in Ontario is a key complaint. But Environment Minister Mary Polak said misinformation about the program is rampant in the business community and much of it is coming from McCulloch. “He refuses to listen to the information provided

him,” she said, adding Buckerfield’s is likely largely exempt from MMBC fees because most of its products go to farms, not consumers. Likewise, she said, many other businesses wrongly believe their fees will be much higher than is the case, due to either low flat fees or exemptions for all but the largest generators of packaging. The decision to make companies whose packaging enters the waste stream responsible for the costs of handling it was a national agreement with other environment ministers, she said. Those who want to go their own way can still pursue an alternative stewardship system, Polak said, adding breweries are advancing their own system and talks are also underway with the newspaper industry.

BEST BUY – Correction Notice In the May 9 flyer, page 7, the Linksys N300/300 Range Extender (WebCode: 10241876) was advertised with an incorrect logo. Please be advised that this is a Linksys range extender NOT D-Link, as previously advertised. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused our valued customers.

Polak said MMBC can’t be subject to provincial audits – as McCulloch has demanded – because it is not an arm of government, but is regulated and accountable as a non-profit. She said organizations representing dairy farms, landscaping and nursery firms, as well as the B.C. Agriculture Council, are now part of an MMBC advisory council. As for demands for a freeze on the program, Polak said that’s not possible. “We are way too far down the road to be pausing it,” she said. Doing so would stop the rollout of curbside blue box pickup to smaller communities that haven’t had it before, throw into chaos collection arrangements in cities where MMBC is set to take over and block the flow of MMBC payments to most municipalities that will continue as contractors under the new system, she said. “If suddenly you told

Mary Polak the Capital Regional District they’re going to have to find $4.8 million, I don’t think anyone would find that very acceptable.” Asked if businesses that don’t pay into MMBC will soon face provincially imposed fines, Polak said enforcement may vary according to how much waste is generated. “Tim Horton’s is part of the program,” she said. “If they hadn’t signed on maybe there’s a more serious discussion about penalties than if you’re dealing with a mediumsized flower grower or something like that.”

ROAD CLOSURE NOTICE When: May 14, 2014 to June 6, 2014 Time:

9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

Where: 188 Street – between Fraser Hwy and 68 Ave To meet the demand for electricity and improved reliability, BC Hydro will be making upgrades to the electrical system along 188 Street – between Fraser Highway and 68 Avenue. This work will require the closure of the 188 Street northbound lanes – between Fraser Highway and 68 Avenue. Detour routes will be in place and motorists are asked to adhere to all traffic control personnel and temporary traffic signs. BC Hydro recognizes the inconvenience this construction may cause and we thank you for your patience and understanding. We will strive to complete the work as quickly and safely as possible. If you have any questions or would like more information about this project, please contact BC Hydro at 1866 647 3334 or stakeholderengagement@bchydro.com.

Bareback

GET BACK TO COUNTRY! • MAY LONG WEEKEND!

Bareback is a form of horseback riding without a saddle that attempts to throw or buck off the rider. A leather handle is the only equipment allowed in bareback to compensate for the cowboy’s errors of balance or lack of skill. The rules are simple. The rider must stay on the horse for a total of eight seconds. The rider must “mark the horse” on the first jump out of the chute by keeping his or her heels over the break of the horse’s shoulders before it completes its first jump. The rider cannot touch the horse or equipment with their free hand or else they will be disqualified. The horse’s performance is just as valued as the cowboy’s – it accounts for half of the rider’s total score. Bareback Competitors to Watch: Matt Lait – Cayley, AB Matt began bucking horses when he was 13 years old and he has not

looked back since. His dedication has recently paid off, as he was crowned the 2013 Canadian Bareback champion and is currently ranked 9th overall in Canada. Caleb Bennett – Morgan, UT Raised in a rodeo family, Caleb started riding bucking horses at a young age, but it was only after four years of college that Caleb really started to set his mind on Bareback riding as a career. Raised in a rodeo family, Caleb started riding bucking horses at a young age. The now 25-year-old 2013 Calgary Stampede champion is currently ranked 3rd in the world and doesn’t plan to slow down anytime soon.

Saddle Bronc Saddle Bronc is a highly stylized competition that was originally based on the essential horse breaking skills of a working cowboy. This rodeo sport permits a specialized saddle with swinging stirrups, which the rider can use to create a sweeping motion with their feet, from shoulder to flank, in attempt to find a rhythm with the horse. Essentially, it is the cleanest and most synchronized Saddle Bronc riders who will be awarded top scores. To begin, the rider must “mark the horse out” on the first jump out of the chute, just as in bareback. If they get bucked off the horse before eight seconds is reached, if they lose a stirrup or if they touch any part of the horse or equipment with their free hand, the rider will be disqualified

Bull Riding Bull riding is a rodeo sport that involves a cowboy sitting on top of a bucking bull with nothing but a braided manila rope to hold on to. Not surprisingly, it has been called the most dangerous eight seconds in sports! There is one important rule. The bull rider cannot, under any circumstance, touch any part of the bull with their one free hand. Cowboys actually receive higher scores if they make good use of their free hand. A bull rider’s ability to maintain good body position and form, while matching their movements with the bull, is also valued in this rodeo sport. Bull Riding Competitors to Watch: Trey Benton – Rock Island, TX The Texas native placed 1st overall at the 2013 Cloverdale Rodeo and you can bet he will be back in the ring this year to defend his title. Trey started riding sheep and calves at the early age of five and then worked his way up to riding horses bareback. With all that hard work and dedication, it comes as no surprise that he is currently ranked 3rd in the world for Bull Riding. Chad Besplug – Claresholm, AB Chad won his first Professional Canadian Bull Riders title at age 16 and he hasn’t looked back since. With a first overall finish at the Calgary Stampede in 2012 and two Canadian Bull Riding championships under his belt, Chad has distinguished himself as one of the most successful bull riders in the world. Despite his accomplished career and his plans to return to university, Chad is not ready to hang up his saddle just yet. Between mentoring up-and-coming stars, producing the first ever “Chad Besplug Invitational” in his hometown of Claresholm, AB, and competing for a third Canadian championship, Chad doesn’t show any signs of slowing down.

Ladies Barrel Racing

Rylee McKenzie – St. Paul, AB As the reigning Cloverdale Rodeo champion, you can be sure that Rylee will be gunning for that title once again. Currently ranked 12th in Canada, Rylee is one competitor you won’t want to miss! Britany Diaz – Desdemona, TX Born on a ranch in South Central Dakota, Britany has been Team Roping since high school, and with her Saddle Bronc riding husband by her side, Britany’s love of horse riding continues to grow. Since placing 1st at the 2011 Cloverdale Rodeo and and her current 11th place ranking in the Pro Rodeo World Standings, Britany has definitely earned herself a solid reputation on the Barrel Racing circuit.

Specialty Act – Robyn & Ryleigh Performing alongside big names like Big & Rich and Brad Paisley and Aaron Pritchett, Langley sisters Robyn & Ryleigh are ready to hit the stage together at the rodeo this year to get the crowd stomping their cowboy boots to their catchy country flavour. The up-and-coming country/pop singing duo recently returned from a trip to Nashville and are all set to perform, record and release their new single, which they are sure you’ll have stuck in your head all rodeo long.

Specialty Act – Express Clydesdales With each horse standing around 6 feet and weighing over a ton, the Express Clydesdales is a team of horses like no other. Known for their magnificent black and white colour and their even-tempered nature, this graceful team and their hand-crafted replica delivery wagon have starred in some of the world’s most famous parades including Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, The Tournament of Roses Parade, and the Chicago St. Patrick’s Day Parade. Joining the Cloverdale Rodeo and Country Fair all the way from Yukon, Oklahoma, the Express Clydesdales is truly a unique spectacle and a must-see attraction at this year’s Rodeo.

Ladies Barrel Racing combines the horse’s athleticism with the horsemanship skills of the rider to quickly guide the horse in a cloverleaf pattern around three barrels. Speed is everything in this exciting rodeo sport. Having the choice to take the right or left barrel first, the rider must follow the pattern set out at the get go, otherwise disqualification will follow. Not only that, but a five-second penalty will be added to their run time every time a barrel is knocked over – unless, from a riding position, the rider chooses to hold the barrel from falling down completely, which is permitted.

The BC Government is proposing to offload the province’s world-class recycling programs, run by local municipalities, to an association led by big multi-national corporations. The idea is that we’ll get a better, more efficient program that costs taxpayers less.

Currently, BC homeowners only pay, on average, $35 a year for curbside recycling. Under the proposed regime, you’ll pay more. Every time you bring home a pizza, buy toilet paper,

Unfortunately, what we’ll really end up with is anyone’s guess.

How much more? Well, nobody’s saying.

The association isn’t guaranteeing that we’ll get a better program, or even one as good as the current Blue Box program already in place. Since the association is led by big businesses outside of BC, many of whom are not even headquartered in Canada, one could presume that profits will come before environmental stewardship. They usually do. They also won’t guarantee that there won’t be any job cuts here in BC.

Here’s the only thing anyone does know: we already have a Blue Box program that works, is efficient, managed locally and puts the BC environment first. So why is the BC government flipping a coin, bringing in a questionable recycling program that some of our local elected officials are already calling a “scam?”

And how is this supposed to make things better for BC?

or pretty much anything else that comes in a package, businesses will be passing their increased costs on to you.

It’s time to contact Premier Clark and ask her.

What’s going on here?

Chiefs win one in four, 5-year Custom keep pace with Athletics Blend Mortgage Whalley chases playoff spot in B.C. Premier Baseball League by Rick Kupchuk DESPITE A losing

weekend on Vancouver Island, the Whalley Chiefs didn’t lose any ground in their pursuit of a B.C. Premier Baseball League playoff position. The Chiefs lost three of four games to fall to 4-10 (won-lost) on the season, but remain two games back of the eighth-place Okanagan Athletics, who also lost three of four games against the North Shore Twins in Kelowna. The Chiefs split a double header Saturday with the Victoria Eagles, before losing twice to the Victoria Mariners on Sunday. Whalley’s lone win on the weekend came in the first game, a 5-4 victory in an extra inning over the Eagles. Lucas Soper had a huge game at the plate for Whalley, going four-for-four with a double and two runs scored. Max Williams was two-for-four. Will Gladwell was the winning pitcher, throwing the final three innings and allowing one earned run on a walk and three hits while collecting four strikeouts. The Chiefs had 10 hits in both games Saturday, but while they

held Victoria to just six hits in the first game, the Eagles had 11 in the second in an 11-10 victory. Victoria built a 10-3 lead after five innings, but their advantage was wiped out with a seven-run sixth inning by the Chiefs, all coming with two outs. Mitch Williams, Jordan Dray, Trevor Henits and Soper all had two hits for the Chiefs. The Eagles scored the winning run in the bottom of the seventh inning with a one-out single.

Against the thirdplace Mariners Sunday, Whalley outhit their opponent 7-5 but came up short in a 6-2 loss. Dray went two-forthree with an RBI (run batted in) to lead the Chiefs at the plate, while pitcher Thomas Espig took the loss after allowing five earned runs on five hits and seven walks in 3.2 innings pitched. The second game lasted just six innings, coming to an end after the Mariners had built a 13-3 lead which brought the game to

a halt on the 10-run mercy rule. Mariners batters combined for 18 hits, as Victoria scored at least two runs in five of the six innings. Kimiya Matsuo and Mitch Williams each went two-for-four for Whalley. The Chiefs get a chance to make up ground on the Athletics next weekend, when they host the Kelownabased squad for four games at Whalley Stadium. Saturday’s double header is scheduled for a 2 p.m. start.

in the semifinal to the Okanagan Rockets. It was only the second time in MML history the Hawks advanced to the final four. Bradley, from the Surrey Minor Hockey Association, led the Hawks in scoring with 39 goals and 32 assists during the regular season to finish fourth overall in the MML. He added 13 points in five playoff games. Drafted by the Medicine Hat Tigers of the Western Hockey League in the 2012 WHL Bantam Draft, Bradley played eight games this past season as an affiliate player of the B.C. Hockey League’s Surrey Eagles. The Hawks have been comprised of players from the Langley, Semiahmoo, Surrey and Cloverdale Minor Hockey Associations (MHA) since the league was launched 10 years ago, but that will change. Effective the 201415 season, players in the Langley MHA must try out for the Fraser Valley Thunderbirds. The North Delta Minor Hockey, formerly in the boundaries of the Vancouver Canadians, is now part of the Valley West draw zone. The MML gives1517 year-old players an opportunity to play within their own age group at a high level before moving on to the next level of hockey.

B.C. Guide Dogs and their companions spend weeks training together so the pair can safely navigate life by Jennifer Lang

M

onica Nelson is a long-time Cloverdale resident whose active schedule would keep anyone hopping. Ash (Ashlar) is a 22-month-old yellow Lab – a sweetheart and kisser who makes his move when Nelson bends down to

tie her shoes. “That’s when you get the slobber!” she exclaims. Three weeks ago, they were strangers. Last week, they graduated as a team – the 106th match by B.C. Guide Dog Services in Ladner. “He’s just an excellent little worker and just raring to go,” Monica says smiling proudly, nodding towards Ash lying quietly at her feet. The pair spent 50 hours training in Cloverdale under the guidance of Nick Toni, a veteran mobility instructor and former RAF police dog handler with 21-plus years in the field. When Nelson got her first guide dog in 1998, she could still see the lines of a crosswalk and discern the contrast of grass and sidewalk. Nelson has RP, or Retinitis Pigmentosa, which leads to progressive loss of vision. Diagnosed in her 20s, she gradually lost her sight. A decade-and-a-half ago, she was receiving mobility training at the Canadian National Institute for the Blind (CNIB) when she was identified as a candidate for a guide dog. To qualify, Nelson had to be mobile – able to get around on her own, using a cane – but her Nick Toni vision couldn’t be too good, otherwise she’d lead around any dog. After taking a successful “test drive” with a guide dog, she was put on a waiting list. A busy wife and mom – her sons were then aged eight and 10 – Nelson waited a year for a match. Nelson and Anya, a yellow Lab/golden cross, became team number EVAN SEAL / THE LEADER three for B.C. Guide Dog Services, a charity founded in 1996 that provides dogs at no cost to the recipient. The group runs breeding, puppy Cloverdale’s Monica Nelson gets a big kiss from Ash, her new guide dog.

Resources and information will be available in English, Punjabi, Hindi and Urdu. The event is free and lunch and refreshments are provided.

Dogs: Many more are needed From page 21 The dogs reach retirement age when they’re about 10, after eight years of service. Quinn, her second dog, is 10. Enter Ash, the newbie, quiet and relaxed, an inert puddle of unstressed warmth on the floor until duty calls. “That’s one of the traits they look for,” Nelson says. “They don’t want an aggressive or overly active dog, because you’re in and out with people, in stores and buildings, on transit – they’ve got to be mellow.” Training a new puppy takes time. “They live with a first family for a year-and-a-half, where they get their social training,” she says. “Then they get their

formal training. That’s when the trainer takes over.” About 75 per cent will have what it takes to be a guide dog. The rest are placed as pets in homes or find careers assisting people with autism. Toni estimates between 15 and 20 dogs trained each year by B.C. Guide Dogs meet the qualifying standard. Dogs are matched with someone from the waiting list – presently closed due to the demand. “There are approximately 111,000 visually impaired people in British Columbia alone,” Toni says. “A good majority of those could use or work with a guide dog. But we just can’t (meet the need).” He notes the charity is raising funds to build

Nick Toni a breeding centre in Ladner to help close that gap. “People like Monica, who have had dogs before and understand how it changes their life and rely on it, they must be our priorities,” says Toni. “When their dogs retire, they must be our priorities to retrain.” Ash will have his

Add shopping trips to stores and malls and you get the picture. The training trio has been learning all of Nelson’s routes, walking the streets of Cloverdale and taking transit, with Nelson gradually taking control of the harness while Ash learns to follow a new boss. “Up to this point, he’s taken his cues from Nick,” says Nelson. “It’s different when I hold the harness. He has to learn to trust me. I have to learn to trust him, so we work together.” From finding escalators to locating the button controlling the crosswalk, Ash has performed “absolutely great” says Toni. He’s worked with about 140 qualified guide dog teams since he began in 1998. “We live in such a complicated environment now,” he says. “We have busier lifestyles, traffic conditions, vehicles have changed. With hybrid cars, there’s no engine noise. They can be a real hazard – you can’t hear them. Things are just more complicated generally, not just for visually impaired people.” Graduation day (April 29) wasn’t a formal ceremony – it was a final run-through for dog and handler checking all the skills they’ll need to have mastered before the team is signed off. The days of training behind them, Nelson and Ash are now a team. For more information, visit bcguidedog.com

GARNEAU, David Ross Oct 5, 1938 - May 5, 2014 It is with great sadness in our hearts we announce the passing of Ross. Surrounded by his family, Ross passed peacefully in his sleep. Devoted husband, beloved father, grandfather, great grandfather, brother, uncle and friend. He will be greatly missed by many. Predeceased by his loving wife Marilyn. Ross leaves behind his daughters loving family; Deborah (Don) and Darlene, their children Jennifer, Micheal, Chantal, Joey and Natasha. Great-grandchildren Mataya and Marcus; brother Wayne (Cindy); sisters Arlene (Des) and Beverly (Franco) and many nieces and nephews. An avid outdoorsman, Ross loved to explore the many back roads of BC hunting and fishing, camping with family and friends. Many good memories were made and shared over the years. A driver/trainer for Canada Safeway for 37 years, Ross retired but still enjoyed “road trips” well into his retirement, visiting family and friends all over BC. A kind, caring, loving man. His smile and laugh will be fondly remembered by all who know him. The family would like to express their gratitude to the staff at the Dr. Stuart Pavillion for their kindness and compassion to Ross during his final days. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Heart and Stroke Foundation or Alzheimer’s Society of BC would be appreciated. Service was held Monday, May 11th, at Garden Hill Funeral Chapel.
