Planned park-in

on 72 Ave. cancelled

By Kevin DiakiwA plan to block 72 Avenue

last Sunday has been tempo-rarily shelved aft er an upset group of Clayton residents rescued their parking for now.

Th e parking is being lost because of a long-planned four-laning of 72 Avenue.

Th e project was given the go-ahead on Dec. 15 night by Surrey council.

Area resident Scott Ander-son said he and several neigh-bours had planned a “park-in” on 72 Avenue on Dec. 21 to

make their objection to the loss of parking known.

At a Th ursday meeting with the city, construction on the project was stalled until Jan. 15, when it’s hoped a new parking plan can be put in place.

Anderson told Black Press last Friday neighbours will be actively involved in that plan, and if parking loss is still on, so is the planned blockage of 72 Avenue at a later date.

B.C.-only wines come to some grocery storesBy Jeff NagelTh e province’s latest liquor reform will make it easier for

wine stores to relocate into grocery stores – provided they off er only B.C. wines – but there’s no sign the government is rethinking its change to wholesale wine pricing that will sharply drive up the price of more expensi–ve bottles.

Friday’s announcement by Justice Minister Suzanne An-ton in Langley at Chaberton Estate Winery is being hailed by B.C. wineries because some supermarkets that can begin selling wine come April will be barred from stocking foreign wines.

Under the change, existing VQA and independent wine stores can relocate or transfer their licence to an eligible gro-

cery store as long as 100 per cent B.C. wine is sold. Th ose licence transfers won’t be limited by a rule that disallows new outlets if there’s an existing one within one kilometre.

Liquor policy reform leader John Yap called it a “winning combination” to allow grocery shoppers to also buy B.C. wine and support the local industry.

“Th e B.C. wine industry is entering into a new era of wine-making,” added Chaberton co-owner Eugene Kwan.

Th e new model is diff erent from the store-within-a-store model in that it allows B.C. wine to be on regular grocery store shelves and shoppers would pay for it at designated reg-isters staff ed by trained employees who are at least 19.

Anton said a limited number of new licences – she would

not specify how many – will be made available to sell just B.C. wine in grocery stores.

Th e extra licences will mean more competition for private wine stores that have already been critical of some of the province’s liquor reforms.

Vancouver lawyer Mark Hicken, who acts for the wine in-dustry, predicts there will be “no takers” on wine stores re-locating under the new B.C.-only model because they would lose most of their international product lines.

Hicken said the B.C.-only rule may violate Canada’s inter-national trade agreements.

A showof lights

JENNIFER LANG PHOTOGheorghe and Rodica Grigore of 6369 165A Street have strung up thousands of lights outside their Clo-verdale home, making for a truly impressive display. It lights up the block – and seems to have inspired the neighbours, making this well worth fi nding. For more local lights, see page 5.

Boy, 3, hit and abandoned at bus stopBy Kevin DiakiwA man has been arrested aft er

a three-year-old boy was hit and abandoned at a Surrey bus stop on Saturday.

At about 11 a.m., police received several calls about an abandoned child at 64 Avenue and 152 Street.

Witnesses say they saw a man strike the boy several times, then

get on a bus, leaving the boy behind.Witnesses told police the found

the boy wearing swim trunks, a t-shirt and light jacket. Th ey brought him into a nearby liquor store and gave him toys to play with while they alerted police.

Social media lit up with posts asking for anyone who could iden-tify by the boy or his parents.

Police say a surveillance camera from a store where the boy was found caught images of what ap-peared to be the man stealing three juice boxes.

Surrey RCMP were able to iden-tify the boy and subsequently ar-rested his father on a bus at 176 Street and 64 Avenue.

RCMP were able to fi nd the

mother through contacts on the man’s cellphone.

Th e boy is now safely reunited with his mother, but the Ministry of Children and Families has been alerted.

Police say they are consider-ing several contributing factors, including drug abuse and mental health issues. Charges of theft , as-

sault and abandoning a child are being recommended.

Surrey RCMP is seeking the public’s assistance, and asking any-one who may have witnessed this incident, are asked to call the Sur-rey RCMP at 604-599-0502 or to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

Pedistrian killed on 176 St.A 53-year-old Richmond man died in

South Surrey Saturday morning when he was struck by an SUV as he ran across 176 Street just south of 8 Avenue.

Cpl. Bert Paquet said the driver of the northbound Mitsubishi Outlander that

struck the pedestrian did not see the man prior to impact, which occurred around 7:30 a.m. Th e man – whom police did not identify – was pronounced dead at the scene.

According to the police fi le, the victim was a passenger on a southbound charter bus when the bus driver missed making a left turn onto 8 Avenue.

Planning to turn around at 4 Avenue, the driver pulled over early to let the victim off . It’s believed the man was headed to a nearby store when he was killed as he crossed east-ward.

“Our victim, for whatever reason, asked to be let out,” Paquet said. “While attempting to cross the highway… our victim got hit in the

northbound lane.”Paquet said it was dark and raining at the

time of the collision, and that the man was not in a marked crosswalk.

Th e Mitsubishi driver, a 43-year-old Sur-rey man, reported the incident to police and remained at the scene, Paquet said.

Police, public, raise donationsTh is year’s Pack the Police Car campaign represents a big haul

for local charities at Christmas time, including the Cloverdale Hamper Program.

Surrey residents are being thanked for their gen-erosity during the campaign.

More than 5,000 pounds of food and $7,000 in cash donations were collected for the Surrey Food Bank, Sources Food Bank and the Cloverdale Christmas Hamper Program.

Surrey RCMP employees also contributed another $500, bring-ing the fi nal tally to $7,500 in cash for the three organizations.

Th e detachment held two food drives outside grocery stores in Cloverdale, along with events in South Surrey and Newton, plus

led other holiday-themed initiatives. For example, police offi cers accompanied underprivileged youth on a Christmas shopping spree, sang Christmas carols to residents at local seniors facilities,

decorated trees for local charities, and collected toys for abused children.

“Our Christmas wish this year is for every resi-dent to give back to the community in some way to make someone else’s holidays that much brighter,” Cpl. Bert Paquet said.

“Although our campaign is over, we continue to urge residents to support local food banks and

charities all year long.”– For more information on how to help, visit www.surreyfoodbank.org,

Ghosts of Christmas past – and of those yet to comeThe weather

outside wasn’t exactly frightful,

but early December in a tent in an Ontario fi eld was a long way from the Inverness-shire estate house where I’d lived before coming to Canada.

I was seven years old, and before leaving Scot-land I had complained to my mother about the lady who tucked me in at night. “Please tell her to stop,” I pleaded. Mother always smiled, and said she would do her best.

When my aunts, Isa and Molly, came to visit, Isa simply refused to stay another night. Molly (as she told me years later) demanded: “Jean, what’s going on here? Someone tucked me in at 2 a.m.”

As usual, Mother smiled and feigned ig-norance.

Old habits are, they say, hard to break. Nanny, the old family retainer, had tucked the Maxwell children into their beds for decades. Presumably, she just couldn’t resist the urge.

Th e problem was, Nanny was dead.

To my relief, Nanny – despite her extrater-restrial talents – hadn’t immigrated to Canada with us.

However, I had a more pressing problem. Would Santa Claus fi nd us?

Th e previous Febru-ary, our TCA Super Constellation had ‘gone mechanical’ en route from Prestwick to Malton necessitating a night stop in Iceland. Mother and I had been billeted in a hangar.

Surely Father Christ-mas, as I knew him in Britain, lurked behind all the nearby snow.

By departure time he hadn’t shown up.

Mother assured me that Nanny was a thing of the past, and Christ-mas was yet to come.

New Canadian friends insisted we abandon the tent in Clarkson for the holidays and spend Christmas at their house in Oakville. On the magical eve, a radio announcer confi rmed that ‘an unidentifi ed sleigh-type object’ had been spotted in the northern night sky.

Santa arrived on cue.

Books were my pas-sion, and there was no shortage of them.

Th at was also the

year I discovered Santa delivered jewellery – a tiny silver signet ring.

Fast forward down the years to last week.

What, I asked my son, would Marley (my two-year-old Alberta granddaughter) like for Christmas?

“Books,” he said. “She loves books.”

So, she’s getting one – her very own best-seller.

Last year, I compiled Kaden’s Great Adven-

ture for my 10-year-old grandson. It was a photo and text saga of our summer holiday together.

During his visit I’d hauled him off to the Surrey Museum, the Historic Stewart Farm, Science World, the Aviation Museum, the golf course, and shopped for his beloved space Lego.

His 15-year-old

brother was particularly impressed. “Gran! You should publish this!”

His mother laughed. “She just did! Th at’s it!”

“Would you like one?” I asked.

“Sure!” came the instant reply.

With that kind of reader feed-back (and thanks to the magic of e-coupons and on-line publishing houses) Santa will be delivering books for me again this Christmas.

In fact, to reassure myself, I fl ew to Iceland in October – just to be sure he’s still around.

– Ursula Maxwell-Lewis is a writer and photogra-

pher, and founding editor/publisher of the Cloverdale Reporter. She still believes

in Santa Claus – and jewellery.

At 7, I wondered: would Father Christmas fi nd us at our new home in Canada?

BOB DISKIN PHOTOAfter his fi nal race Dec. 28, Spider M will retire to the stall of his birth, on a farm in Surrey.

By Jennifer LangOne of Canada’s most senior racehorses is calling it a day.Th is Sunday, Spider M, a Surrey-bred racehorse will make his

fi nal bid for glory at Fraser Downs Racetrack and Casino.It’s almost unheard of for a horse to continue racing to the age

of 15, but Spider M has been doing just that. On Dec. 28, the brown Standardbred makes his 289th lifetime

start, capping off a hard-fought career in harness racing.Out of 289 lifetime starts, he’s had 30 wins, 26 seconds, and 11

thirds, bringing in $218,387 in lifetime earnings.He earned it the hard way, with very little stake money –

$21,550 – to his credit, says Jackson Wittup, executive director of Harness Racing B.C.

Spider M is the only 15-year-old to race in Canada in 2014 at an “A” track. Th e mandatory retirement age is 14 in most jurisdic-tions, according to Wittup, who points out Spider M is also only one of two 15-year-olds to race in North America this year: Th e other is a horse called Lemon Pepper, who raced in New York.

Spider M’s fastest win was 1:54 at Fraser Downs.Despite his longevity in the fi eld, he didn’t race as a two-year-

old back in 2001, but has raced every year since.

His owner, Janice Wheeler, will retire Spider M to her farm – where he’ll return to the very stall of his birth. (His sire was De-mons Bell and his broodmare was Sabrina Legacy).

“Aft er his race, Spider M will receive a retirement blanket in the winners circle from Harness Racing B.C.,” Wittup says. “Come and say bye to this pensioner!”

Hudon returns to drive for Food BankFormer Cloverdale resident Phil Hudon is returning to Fraser

Downs Racetrack and Casino for a couple of days at the races over the holidays.

And he’s planning to give something back to the community. He’ll donate his drivers fees from his racing duties on Dec. 28 and Jan. 1 to the Surrey Food Bank.

He’s in step with standardbred owner and trainer Daniel Gaboury, who is donating all earnings during the month of December for his horse, Buddy’s Hope, to the Surrey Food Bank. Gaboury’s off er will be matched by Fraser Downs and Harness Racing B.C. Executive Director Jackson Wittup – who have pledged to donate $50 each every time Buddy’s Hope wins this month.

Last lap for hardworking racer

Lorie ChortykGeneral Manager, Community Relations, BC SPCA

for the Cloverdale pet and the people who love them

When considering your New Year’s resolutions for 2015, why not make your furry friends part of your plans? The BC SPCA off ers some ideas on New Year’s resolutions for animal lovers:

Walk! Get yourself and your dog off the couch and into the outdoors. Most dogs need walking at least twice daily to stay healthy and you will benefi t too. If you don’t have a dog, why not volunteer to walk dogs at your local shelter?

ID your pet. The SPCA reunites thou-sands of lost animals with their families every year. Many animals are never claimed, however, and must be adopted into new homes because they have no identifi -cation. Make sure your pets have ID tags on their collar and a microchip or tattoo, and keep the informa-tion updated.

Speak Out. Advocate for animal welfare issues such as puppy mills, feral cats, and many others by contacting your city council or community leaders to help eff ect change through regulatory bylaws. Visit spca.bc.ca for more information on how to take action.

It’s Hip to Snip. Help spread the word about the crucial im-portance of spaying or neuter-ing pets – or make a donation to your local shelter to help with spay/neuter programs. Thou-sands of unwanted animals are born in B.C. each year – often with tragic consequences.

Don’t Shop – Adopt! If you are considering getting a new pet make the SPCA or another

animal shelter your fi rst adoption option. Avoid buying pets from online sites — you may be supporting puppy mills by buying this way.

Make humane food choices. Commit to purchasing foods raised according

to high standards of animal welfare. Look for SPCA Certifi ed

products in the meat and

dairy sections of your grocery

store. You can fi nd out where to buy SPCA Certifi ed products at spca.bc.ca.

Sign up for the BC SPCA Kids Club. Connect the young an-imal lovers in your life with other like-minded youth through an an-nual BC SPCA Kids Club membership.

Make the Switch. Switch the toxic ethylene glycol anti-freeze in your vehicle

to pet-friendly propyl-ene-based antifreeze.

Donate your time or money. Help a homeless or wild animal get the care they need. The BC SPCA’s priority funds let you choose which program or service to support, including cruelty investigations, sheltering, wildlife rehabilitation, education and advocacy. Or give of yourself – the BC SPCA simply could not function without the help of our 4,000 amazing volunteers across the province.

Be a compassion ambassador! Take part in the BC SPCA’s Million Acts of Kindness campaign being launched in 2015 to help animals. Sign up for more information at millionacts.ca

Visit spca.bc.ca for more information on these res-olutions and other ways you can make a life-saving diff erence for animals.

Don’t sleep and miss this lively holiday PantoBy Alex BrowneJust in time for Christmas, the third local panto of

the holiday season rolls into Surrey Arts Centre this week with a bushel-load of traditional, family-friendly, British-style fun.

Th e show is Ellie King’s Sleeping Beauty, presented by the Royal Canadian Th eatre Company, and – aft er some 25 years of panto productions – everyone knows the Langley-based producer/author’s winning formu-la.

Colourful, extravagant costumes, cheery songs, a magical retelling of a familiar fairy tale, silliness, puns, slapstick comedy and hiss-worthy bad guys are man-datory for the show, which runs Dec. 19-28.

Th ere’s a radiant, tuneful principal girl – White Rock resident Melissa Paras as Princess Rosebud – the ‘sleeping beauty’ of the title for at least some of the running time.

And – in the time-honoured fashion of all old-coun-try pantos – there is also a brave principal ‘boy’ who just happens to look good in fi shnet stockings (An-die Francis as Prince Indigo), and a ludicrous Dame

(RCTC favourite Alan Cedargreen, once more don-ning drag as Rosebud’s nurse Bizzie Lizzie).

Paras adds a nice touch of rebellious spirit as a princess “raised in cotton-wool” by overprotective parents, King said.

But there is one big change to the show this year – for the fi rst time King has handed off directing chores (though, typically, she’s been busy as hands-on pro-ducer of the all-in-the-family enterprise, up to and including painting the sets).

Fortunately her choice for successor at the helm is her own son, James, a panto perennial known for fi nding his own ingenious, humourously twisted, variations on the panto Demon each year.

“I was a little trepidatious – it’s not easy handing it over,” King confessed. “But I’m very pleased with James’ direction. He still asks for my ‘eye’ on things, and it’s looking very good and playing very well.”

Sleeping Beauty runs until Dec. 28 at the Surrey Arts Centre main stage. (Th ere will also be a brief follow-up run Jan. 2-3 at the ACT in Maple Ridge).

5 IN MEMORIAM

IN LOVING MEMORY OFSHARON VANDENBRINK

June 10, 1956 -Christmas Eve 2013

Twas the night before Christmas,when suddenly all lay so still in our home. This was the fi rst year the spirit of the holidays wouldnot be celebrated or festivelyshown. Sharon’s favourite dis-plays had always been arranged with so much care and special thought, with the creativity she’d express and beautiful decorations that she treasured. They were usually hand made, and seldom ever store bought. The ceilings bore hundreds of beautiful dan-gling paper snowfl akes that she’d cut & shape for hours till her fi n-gers bled. And as a single string was tied to each and every one, I’d tape exactly where she said. Our home was open to one and all, especially if homeless and needing a place to rest your feet. She always found clothes to keep your body warm, and fi ll your tummy with something to eat. Her tired little body had battled so much through the year. Pain and exhaustion had now won the fi ght, and as the Lord answered her precious silent prayers, He carried her home to a beautiful choir of angels, welcoming her to Heaven that night. She was a lov-ing, free spirit, full of empathy and generosity and was the hap-piest when she was out helping others. She was my very best friend, companion & soulmate to Stevie. Cherished friend, daugh-ter, sister, grandma and mother. Yes it has been such a long, lonely year for all those who so loved and miss her, as we forever in our hearts hold her memory close and tight.

I know if she was right here with a smile, kiss and a tear, she’d shout “Merry Christmas to all, and to all a Goodnight” AMEN.

We love and miss you Sharon; Steven Halverson, Sam Wagner, the beautiful Vandenbrink family,

and all the lives she nurtured and touched, XO
