Santa seeks sponsor helpBy Jennifer LangLocal eff orts to ensure Cloverdale’s

brightest night of the year lights up the historic town centre in December got a boost last week from the City of Surrey as an appeal for sponsors went into over-drive.

Organizers announced the city has come through with $5,000 – money that will help cover approx-imately 75 per cent of the policing and traffi c control costs of Surrey’s Santa Pa-

rade of Lights, a lighted Christmasparade and family favourite that

draws thousands to the his-toric town centre.

Co-organized by the Clo-verdale BIA and the Clo-verdale Chamber of Com-merce, the 2015 event was in jeopardy due to rising costs – and a budget-conscious BIA board that shelved two signature events this year – the Blueberry Festival and the Halloween Costume Parade. Grim greeter

Keep all emails, Clark tells cabinet ministerBy Tom FletcherPremier Christy Clark has or-

dered all cabinet ministers and their political staff to keep every email they send until new proce-dures are in place to decide what is necessary for the public record and freedom of information requests.

Clark issued the instruction last Friday aft er B.C.’s Information and Privacy Commissioner condemned the widespread practice of “triple deleting” emails so they can’t be stored in daily computer backups.

Commissioner Elizabeth Den-ham said her investigation showed records were intentionally de-stroyed to avoid public release. One of those requests was for re-cords related to meetings with leaders of remote communities on risks of travelling along Highway 16 in northern B.C.

Clark said she accepts Denham’s recommendations, but there are diff erent legal opinions on what is a “transitory document” that is re-quired to be destroyed and a record

that is required to be kept.“We thought, I thought that ev-

erything was being done properly, and that’s because there has been really almost no change in the way things have been done for a de-cade,” Clark said.

NDP leader John Horgan said the investigation shows the con-duct of B.C. Liberal government staff ers, including Premier Chris-ty Clark’s deputy chief of staff Mi-chele Cadario, reveals “a culture of deception, a culture of deceit, a cul-

Parents, tots partyMore than 15 local moms gath-

ered together for their mommy-baby group’s annual Halloween party in Cloverdale Th anksgiving weekend.

Shana Vanderark, one of the local moms, said the party was an oppor-tunity for the babies who grew up to-gether to continue to bond, play and learn from one another. Th e tots also got to fi ll their sweet tooth with tons of candy and jump around in a haunt-ed bouncy castle.

“A new baby, a diff erent lifestyle, and various adjustments to our home

can be overwhelming”, Vanderark said, “however, we all took the oppor-tunity to participate in the Baby and Me Group at the Cloverdale Public Health Unit and it was the best deci-sion we made.”

Th e Baby and Me Group, located at 17536 58 Avenue, gives moms the op-portunity to meet other new parents, get advice from weekly speakers – and direct access to nurses at the Clover-dale Public Health Unit, part of Fraser Health (604-575-5100).

Daylight Saving Time ends this weekend, off ering the promise of an

extra hour to sleep in Sunday morn-ing.

Th e clocks go back at 2 a.m. Nov. 1, ushering in brighter mornings but bringing earlier sunsets.

Election 2015: opportunity knocksLocal voters went to bed the night before

the 42nd federal election unsure what the next day would bring.

For many, it brought hope.Love or loathe the results of the Oct. 19

vote, the changes observed by the individu-al voter certainly bring opportunity.

Th ose who had sought change nation-wide got it, though not necessarily as some desired; instead of a Conservative majority led by Stephen Harper, they got a Liberal majority led by Justin Trudeau.

In South Surrey-White Rock, instead of Conservative MP Russ Hiebert in a

landslide (he won 54 per cent of the vote in 2011, out of a fi eld of nine), voters got Con-servative Dianne Watts in a nail-biter (she eked

out 44 per cent of the vote, not far from her closest challenger, Liberal Judy Higginboth-am, in a fi eld of six candidates).

And in Surrey-Newton, instead of NDP incumbent Jinny Sims, voters got former Liberal incumbent Sukh Dhaliwal.

Th e rest of Surrey – including traditional-ly right-wing Cloverdale, as part of the new Cloverdale-Langley City riding –  went or

remained Liberal.Our hopes must be met with realism.

While Harper may well have embarrassed himself politically and personally in the days leading up to the election – partying at a rally hosted by Toronto’s infamous Ford brothers two nights before voting day was only the capper – Trudeau is by no means tested; and, if one listens solely to his de-tractors, there is reason to be concerned.

Conversely, while Hiebert, who used to represent Cloverdale, has kept a low,

unproductive profi le for nearly all of his four terms in offi ce, little more than a yes-man for Harper, Watts –  a proven force as onetime mayor of Surrey – was an entirely diff erent candidate, a shadow of her former self, parroting a party line rather than speaking from the heart.

Not once did we hear Watts challenge conventional thinking. Not once did we hear her say what she, personally, would bring to the community, more than any other candidate that her party could have put forward.

Again, there is hope.In Trudeau’s case, it is that his supporters

paint a picture of a man with integrity.In Watts’ case, we urge her to remember

her days as mayor, but not the ones of her fi nal terms in which her Surrey First party ruled without dissent.

Instead, we remind her of the past glory of her earliest days, when she wrested the mayor’s chair from established parties and had to team-build. She did so with a smile on her face, and it felt as though she was doing it for us.

Indeed, we have a great deal of hope. We only hope it is warranted.

– Black Press

Let’s hope Trudeau won’t disappoint and that Watts will get her mojo back

To the editor; Canada’s winner-take-all voting system

has signifi cantly distorted the will of Cana-da’s electors, handing an un-earned majorityto one party. Today, we do not have the government that we voted for!

Nationally, Liberals earned the votes of 39.5 per cent of Canadian voters, yet the voting system handed them over 54.4 per cent of the seats in the House of Commons as a result. Th is is a majority government…on only a minority of the vote. Th e desire for change was clearly evident in the results, but our winner-take-all system granted the Liberal Party many more seats than their vote merits, and shut out other voices.

Th e First Past Th e Post voting system yielded the Trudeau Liberals a solid major-ity (elected or leading) of 184 seats, more

than the 170 threshold for a majority. A number of experienced long-time Members of Parliament were swept away with the Liberal landslide.

A proportional voting system would have granted 134 seats to the Liberals (less than a majority), 108 seats to the Conservatives,

67 to the NDP, 16 to the Bloc and 12 to the Greens. Today we should have a minority govern-ment in place in Canada.

Regional distortions are also evident. Th e Bloc, with its geographically concentrated

4.7 per cent of the vote gained 10 seats, but the Greens, with diff use support and 3.4 per cent of the vote, only achieved one seat.

Last month, over 500 Canadian academ-ics, including several Fellows of the Royal Society of Canada, 29 Canada Research Chairs and two Professors with the Order of Canada, called on all political parties to

work together to bring in a fairer electoral system.

It should no longer be acceptable to have a system that disenfranchises a third of the electorate, forces people to vote strategically, or distorts the will of voters. It’s time we modernized our dysfunctional democracy so that election results truly refl ect they way electors vote.

Fair Vote Langley is part of Fair Vote Canada, Canada’s national multi-partisan citizens’ movement promoting fair voting reform at all levels of government.

Timothy JonesFair Vote CanadaLangley (778-908-1189)

Watts next, Dianne?To the editor;Congratulations to all Surrey candidates

who won a trip to Ottawa, as our represen-tatives in the House of Commons. A spe-cial thanks to Dianne Watts; through sheer star power, she was able to overcome the Red Tide, and Judy Higginbotham, a well-known name in Surrey, in itself, by saving one Conservative seat for Surrey.

I know that Dianne Watts is too political-ly smart to mention it at this time.

Th ere will soon be room at the top of the Conservative Party, as offi cial opposi-tion party leader, and Dianne Watts, with her fat resume, as Surrey councillor and three landslide victories as Mayor of Surrey, would certainly fi ll this bill.

I hope she throws her hat in the ring, one more time.

The changing colours of the fall leaves are an indication that cold and � u season is upon us. Although for most people, these are not life-threatening illnesses, they can make your life miserable, especially during the holiday season. Protect yourself from the cold and � u by following these simple steps.

At the top of the list are some non-drug options. Stay well-hydrated, eat your fruits and veggies and ensure adequate protein intake because all of these actions will help your immune system function optimally. Wash your hands frequently, even if you do not feel they are dirty. We inadvertently touch many surfaces throughout the day and then touch our faces, risking the introduction of viruses and bacteria into our body through the eyes and nose. Simply washing your hands several times throughout the day can minimize your risk of exposure to cold or � u viruses.

Getting a FLU SHOT is one of the best ways to minimize the impact of the � u virus on your body. Notice we do not say that it prevents you from getting the � u as that can only be achieved by not inhaling droplets containing the virus.

The � u vaccine works by showing your immune system parts of the � u virus and stimulating your body to produce antibodies and other killer cells that � ght the virus. Then if your body does encounter the live virus, you will already be armed with the weapons to � ght it. Thus, the � u shot does not prevent you from getting the � u, rather it minimizes

how sick you feel since the body is able to � ght it before the virus causes you to be symptomatic. You may have heard that some years the � u shot does not cover the strains of in� uenza that are found to be the problematic in our area that year. However, that is not say that the � u shot did not do them any good at all as those who were vaccinated now have antibodies in them that would protect them when these strains do come around our area during future � u seasons. Come talk to us about getting vaccinated.

Supporting the immune system can help prepare it for its � ght against seasonal viruses. For those who have a contraindication to the � u shot or choose not to receive it, or as additional protection against the � u, consider using THYMULINE and INFLUENZINUM on an alternating schedule to balance and prime the immune system homeopathically. Additionally, most of the Cloverdale Pharmasave staff keep ESBERITOX on hand during the winter months. Chewing a few tasty tablets three times a day at the onset of a cold can reduce the severity and duration of cold symptoms. For those who prefer a liquid,

PASCOLEUCYN is used in much the same way. Both Esberitox and Pascoleucyn can be used by almost all the members of the family with dosing provided for as young as 4 years of age and infants, respectively. The family of SAMBUCUS products all contain a cultivar of black elderberry that is reported to contain higher levels of naturally-occurring � avonoids, which supports the immune system. Black elderberry is a traditional remedy used to help reduce the severity and duration of � u symptoms. It is combined with Echinacea in the SAMBUCUS IMMUNE product for relief against both the cold and � u.

Although the forecast is for El Nino to bring us a mild winter, this does not necessarily translate into a mild cold and � u season. Protecting yourself against the winter viruses can also help protect the more vulnerable members of our population such as the very young, the very old and those who are immune-compromised. Do your part in keeping everyone in your family healthy during the cough and cold season: wash your hands, eat healthy, get a � u shot, and use complementary medicines as necessary.

8 The Cloverdale Reporter Wednesday, October 28, 2015

A revised 2015 Clo-verdale BIA budget approved in April allo-cated more resources to beautifi cation projects and attracting new busi-nesses, but members hoped to save the Santa Parade.

Th e BIA launched a Save the 2015 Surrey Santa Parade Campaign in an attempt to enlist businesses and individ-uals who would pledge sponsorships at any amount. With the dead-line approaching, the campaign has shift ed

into high gear.With base funding

now in place, the two organizations are now reaching out for spon-sors at the $500 level in order to bring decorat-ed big rig trucks from Vancouver Island so they can join the parade once again.

In previous years, the B.C. Ferry Corporation sponsored these entries by covering travel costs, Cloverdale BIA executive director Paul Orazietti said.

Th e corporation has cut back, meaning the truck drivers will have

to pay full rate to ride the ferry to the main-land, forcing parade organizers to turn to the business community for a solution that would bring them here.

Long-time Cloverdale resident Bruno Zappone is urging other business-es to step up in support of the Santa parade and other community events.

As a former volunteer fi refi ghter who’s mark-ing his 49th year with the Cloverdale Lions Club, Zappone points to his own decades of service.

Well-known for running a trucking and excavation business, Zappone is a fi xture at the Lions’ barbecue grill, serving up hotdogs and hamburgers at the Cloverdale Bed Races and other community events, including the Halloween Costume Parade and the Blueber-ry Festival, which are among the “most major things we do around here.”

He’s dismayed at what he views as a lack of community spirit, and fears Cloverdale may lose more events if other businesses don’t get involved.

“I get really down-hearted about it,” he said. “Th e BIA and Chamber worked hard to get these things going.”

Last week he contrib-uted $300 to support the parade and would like to see local merchants match that amount. “Th ey should help out more,” he said.

Zappone also thinks the city should help out more, fi nancially, to support Cloverdale events.

Meantime, several new parade sponsors have come forward since the alarm was raised and the Clover-dale BIA is concentrat-ing on signing up more – across the city.

“Th e event itself is really not a ‘Cloverdale only’ event anymore,” explained Orazietti, who added the decorated trucks have traditionally also appeared on parade day at Central City’s Big Rigs for Kids event.

“We do need more support but we’re going to put on a good pa-rade,” he said.

To fi nd out more, call the Cloverdale BIA at 604-576-3155 or Cloverdale Chamber at 604-574-9802.

By Jeff NagelAbout 40 per cent of

attempted calls to 911 rang busy during the major wind storm that walloped the Lower Mainland Aug. 29.

E-Comm spokesper-son Jody Robertson said the emergency communications centre had fi ve times as many staff on as usual that Saturday aft ernoon but the 30 call takers were overwhelmed by the heavy volume of 911 calls, many for non-emergencies, in-cluding queries about power outages.

With the winter storm season now approaching, E-Comm and its partner re-sponse agencies are continuing to review the summer incident to determine what, if anything, could be done to improve 911 performance.

“Are there any poten-tial technical or oper-ational changes that might help to mitigate the impacts of mass calling events? Th at’s actively being looked at right now,” Robertson said.

At the peak of the summer storm, E-Comm handled 600 calls in one hour that actually got through, up from a normal 100.

“Th is was the biggest one time-surge in 911 call volume we’ve ever experienced,” Robert-son said.

She said she’s not aware of any true emergencies that were worsened because of any delays in response due to the jammed lines.

E-Comm knew many 911 callers weren’t get-

ting through and took to social media to urge residents not to call unless they had a true emergency.

But numerous calls still fl ooded in to report power outag-es, ask when service would be restored or report downed trees that posed no immi-nent risk.

“Our experience is any time there’s a pow-er outage, even if it’s a small one, we get these calls,” Robertson said.

In California, 911 misuse draws a warn-ing followed by poten-tial fi nes that escalate from $50 to $250.

But E-Comm staff here make no record of which calls were inap-propriate, so there’s no capability to fl ag those frivolous or nuisance callers for follow-up education or enforce-ment.

NDP justice critic Mike Farnworth said he’d like habitual vio-lators at least tracked and sent educational information, and re-search done on poten-tial enforcement best practices from other jurisdictions.

“Th ose are steps you could take,” Farnworth said. “Information being sent out is not a bad idea. For many people, education may be all it takes.”

Heavy call volumes during a major inci-dent can further bog down E-Comm staff because of the protocol they must follow.

Th at’s because a 911 caller who doesn’t im-mediately reach a call taker gets a recording instructing them to stay on the line.

Some of them may

get frustrated with the wait and hang up, Robertson said, but their phone numbers stay in the queue and the next available operator must then call back to ensure each dropped caller is okay and not incapacitated or threatened.

“Th at further creates

backlog,” Robertson said. “It’s really import-ant that people don’t hang up.”

She was unable to say how much eff ect that had on Aug. 29, or how many on-hold calls were dropped in addition to the 40 per cent of calls that got busy signals and didn’t connect at all.

Telus deployed diesel backup generators or batteries to keep its phone systems oper-ational, spokesman Shawn Hall said, add-

ing that wasn’t a factor aff ecting 911 access.

He said public edu-cation is key.

“Th ere’s no 911 sys-tem in the world that can take thousands of calls all at one time and answer them.”

Minister of State for Emergency Prepared-ness Naomi Yamamoto said the wind storm was a “good wakeup call” and the 40 per cent call failure rate that day was “not ac-ceptable.”

DENTIST

Q:A:

Why do I need x-rays? One of the major concerns that patients have is the amount of radiation exposure they receive from x-rays. Digital x-rays, which replace the traditional fi lm with an electronic sensor, require much less radiation and is very safe.

X-ray evaluation of the dental and periodontal (gum or bone) tissues is a critical tool needed for your examination. Dentists use x-rays for many reasons: to fi nd hidden dental structures, malignant or benign masses, bone loss, and cavities. It is possible for both tooth decay and periodontal disease to be missed during a visual exam alone. Most people will have 4 small x-rays taken once a year during one of their cleaning visits. These are used to detect hidden decay and changes in bone density caused by gum disease. Sometimes a smaller, individual x-ray is needed to detect abnormalities of the root structure and surrounding bone of a tooth.

Surrey man sentenced to eight years for abuse

By Sheila ReynoldsA man who repeat-

edly subjected his girl-friend to a “sickening” level of violence that resulted in black eyes, cuts, bruises, swelling and a stab wound to the stomach has been sen-tenced to eight years in prison.

David Raffl e, 46, was sentenced in B.C. Su-preme Court in New Westminster Sept. 24. Th e reasons for sen-tence were recently posted online.

Because he has al-ready spent 28 months in custody, there are fi ve years, eight months re-maining of his sentence.

Raffl e was convict-ed by a jury in April of two counts of assault causing bodily harm, one count of aggravated assault and one count of assault with a weapon.

Th e court heard Raffl e and the victim, who had a romantic relationship, lived in a trailer park in

Surrey in October 2012 when the woman faced multiple assaults by Raf-fl e over a 10-day period.

Upon admission to hospital, the victim’s injuries included facial bruising which includ-ed both eyes, swelling above her ear and back of head, brain trauma, bruises on her neck, body, back, legs and arms, and cuts to her fi ngers and one fore-arm.

Th e victim testifi ed at trial, and while the judge said she couldn’t always recall precise dates, the series of beating she claimed occurred were consistent with photo-graphic evidence.

“Th e photographs clearly show that her two black eyes are at dif-ferent stages of healing,” said Justice Anthony Saunders. “Th e photo-graphs, I add, depict a level of violence that is sickening to contem-plate.”

Saunders said the deep laceration on the woman’s arm resulted from blocking Raffl e from hitting her in the head with a brass statue. Th e cut on her left fi n-ger was from him trying to cut it off with a soup can lid, as it bore a tat-too of the name of her former spouse.

Th e assault causing bodily harm charge fol-lowed an incident less than two weeks later, on Nov. 6, 2012, when Raf-fl e repeatedly punched and kicked the victim while walking near their Surrey home. Th is time, the woman suff ered ad-ditional cuts and swell-ing to the face and head, an ear injury and chest bruising.

Th e fi nal, most seri-ous attack occurred Jan. 9, 2013. Th e two had moved together from Surrey to New West-minster, despite Raf-fl e having been under court order not to con-

tact the victim.Th e jury heard the

pair had been drinking together when Raffl e stabbed the woman in the abdomen with what she described as a bon-ing or fi lleting knife about fi ve inches long.

Th e defence argued the stabbing was not deliberate, but a sponta-neous act – something the judge did not buy.

Justice Saunders said the stabbing fi t Raffl e’s pattern of abusive dom-inance.

“It was no accident and it was no mere whim,” he said.

Saunders said the number of assaults and degree of violence putthe case “towards the extreme upper end ofdomestic violence cas-es.”

He said the most ag-gravating factor was that the assaults took place within a domestic relationship. Th e vic-tim’s emotional attach-ment and dependence on Raffl e was illustrated by the lengths she went to cover up the abuse and injuries, the court documents say.

“[Th e victim] was vulnerable in relation to Mr. Raffl e and, through his continuing abuse, he continued to exploit that vulnerability, be-lieving he could assault,control, and dominate her with impunity,” said Saunders.

Raffl e has an exten-sive criminal record that began with prop-erty crimes a youth and progressed to assault, break and enter and robbery with a fi rearm, for which he served served jail time.

His latest sentence also includes a life-time ban on possessing weapons.

Ducks rescued from pond ready for release

By Tracy HolmesA fl ock of mallards rescued from a contaminated

South Surrey pond earlier this month are to start being released back to the wild this week.

But they won’t be returning “home,” following a report of continued pollution at the pond in question.

“Th e pond still has a sheen on it and we are trying to fi nd a pond that is similar to their previous home but far enough away from it so they don’t fl y back to it and get soiled again,” Yolanda Brooks, communications manager with the Wildlife Rescue Association (WRA), said.

Th e ducks – 16 in all – were rescued from property in the 18800-block of 8 Avenue starting Oct. 7, aft er offi cials were alerted to an oily substance in the water.

WRA volunteers and staff dispatched to the scene over the next few days were able to round up most of

the soiled waterfowl, bringing them to the Burnaby facility for stabilization, cleaning and treatment. Five were found to have suff ered chemical burns to their skin.

Brooks said that all of the rescued ducks are current-ly in outdoor enclosures – with donations towards their care at about $3,600 – and the fi rst were expected to be released Wednesday.

Th e pollution, however, remains under investigation.Ministry of Environment spokesman David Karn

said the pond was cleaned, “however, the ministry has received a further report of continuing pollution at the site and is investigating.”

If it’s determined that an off ence occurred under the Environmental Management Act, penalties could include fi nancial penalties or jail time, Karn said.

PROTECT YOUR PETS THIS

HALLOWEEN!

7254169

Protect your pets at HalloweenWith Halloween around the corner it’s a good time to start planning on how you can keep your pets safe and happy when the trick-or-treaters come calling. While Halloween is great fun for kids, the � reworks, strange costumes and constant ringing of the doorbell can spook even the calmest of animals. When dogs and cats are frightened they are more likely to run away from their homes, jump out of open windows or dart into tra� c. Stressed pets can also behave out of character —scratching or biting out of fear.

The BC SPCA o� ers these Halloween safety tips:

Keep pets insidePets who are inside have fewer opportunities to confront trick-or-treaters. Some pets do well left in a separate room with the radio or television on to mask the sound of � reworks and trick-or-treaters. Be sure to leave plenty of toys in the room for your pet so that he doesn’t think he’s being isolated as a punishment. If your pet � nds the doorbell disturbing, consider disconnecting the doorbell for the night. Alternatively, you can leave a bowl of treats near the door outside where trick-or-treaters can help themselves.

Identi� cationMake sure your pet is wearing identi� cation. Dogs and cats may try to run away if they feel threatened. Clear, current

identi� cation is your best chance to have them returned to you.

Candy is for peopleCandy can lead to health problems such as diabetes or obesity, and chocolate is especially dangerous because it contains theobromine, which is toxic to dogs and cats. Keep treats well away from your pets.

Leave home without themWhile you might think it would be fun to bring your pet trick-or-treating, your pet may not share your view. The strange sights and sounds of Halloween can cause a normally friendly dog to bite if they feel scared or threatened.

Don’t costume your petDressing your dog in a costume inhibits his ability to communicate normally with other dogs, making him prone to display aggression himself or be subjected to aggressive behaviour from other dogs.For more information on how to make this Halloween a safe one for your pet, visit spca.bc.ca .

Washington grapples with stoned driversBy Tom FletcherWashington state

police are dealing with more drivers impaired by marijuana since its recreational use was legalized last year, and

B.C. is preparing for similar problems as a new federal govern-ment prepares to follow suit.

Chief John Batiste of the Washington State

Patrol visited Victoria this week to take part in an annual cross-bor-der crime forum. He acknowledged that it’s a problem since the state legalized marijuana sales to adults in 2014.

“We are seeing an uptick in incidents on our roadways related to folks driving under the infl uence of marijuana and drugs in general,” Batiste told reporters aft er a meeting with B.C. Justice Minister Suzanne Anton.

He explained the state’s new law setting a limit for marijuana’s

active ingredient in blood, similar to the blood-alcohol limit. But without a roadside testing device, police are relying on training from the State Patrol’s drug recognition expert to make arrests.

What they need now is a roadside testing device that provides evidence of impairment that will hold up in court, Batiste said.

Prime Minister-des-ignate Justin Trudeau made a high-profi le promise to legalize marijuana before winning a majority gov-ernment Oct. 19.

In B.C., police can charge drivers if they show signs of impair-ment, whether from drugs or fatigue. In al-cohol use cases, drivers are typically charged with impaired driving and driving with a blood alcohol content of more than .08 per cent.

Vancouver-based Cannabix Technologies is developing such a device. Th e company issued a statement Oct. 21, noting that Trudeau has promised to begin work on legalizing mar-ijuana “right away” and a reliable method of enforcement is needed across North America.

Th e company says it is developing a hand-held device that can detect marijuana use within the past two hours.

Saliva and urine tests can come up positive for marijuana “long aft er intoxication has worn off ,” the company stated.

ContributedTh e Surrey Beavers held their

fourth annual Ruck for the Cure on Oct. 17.  Th e event began with four, hard-fought games of rugby, followed by a live auction at their legendary clubhouse, the Beaverlodge, to sup-port both the Cancer Society and a local survivor in fi nancial need.

Th is year’s event was not only the largest ever, with over $20,000 raised, it was truly an emotional evening with players from the Beavers and their nearby rivals, the Langley Rugby Club, opening both their wallets and their hearts together.

Beavers President Rob Brown kicked off the event in the raucous clubhouse by hushing the crowd of pint-swilling ruggers to remind them all of what the night was all about.

On the fi eld, two clubs had battled, he said, but off the fi eld, they were now warriors in a common cause.

“We all know someone, every one of us, who has had to battle this dis-ease, so tonight we must battle togeth-er,” he said.

Th e crowd erupted at his call-to-arms, and the auction began.

Beaver “hooker” (that’s a position, not a profession!) and former rodeo cowboy, Nick Bruce, climbed the auctioneer’s stool and the fi rst of 23 special edition pink Ruck for the Cure jerseys was put up for bid.

Each jersey, numbered by playing po-sition from prop to fullback with eight reserves, fetched hundreds of dollars as both current and alumni Beavers com-peted for shirts which matched where

they lined up on the fi eld. Equally important, players and

alumni from both clubs shared stories of fathers, teammates and past club members whom had passed from cancer but were defi nitely as alive in the Beaverlodge that evening as any of the current players.

Special edition New Zealand All Blacks and British RAF Spitfi res jer-seys were donated by a former Bea-vers player.

And then a young Langley player brought the house to tears when he climbed the stool to talk about his fa-ther and three other members of the Langley Rugby Club who were hon-oured with a special edition jersey his club purchased back – for over $2,000 – and will permanently display in their own clubhouse, the LRC, on Crush Crescent in Langley.

Beavers player and executive mem-ber Paul Kelly, who played a major role in organizing the event, said when added together, the Beavers an-nual Ruck for the Cure has raised over $50,000 for Cancer in only four years.

“Th is event would not be possible without the generous support of lo-cal businesses and individuals who sponsor our jerseys,” he added, “and we would like to thank the Langley Rugby Club for attending and really stepping up to support our event this year.”

Kelly closed by saying, “only in rug-by would two clubs go at it this hard and then come together with so much respect to make a diff erence.”

DENTIST

Q:A:

Why do I need x-rays? One of the major concerns that patients have is the amount of radiation exposure they receive from x-rays. Digital x-rays, which replace the traditional fi lm with an electronic sensor, require much less radiation and is very safe.

X-ray evaluation of the dental and periodontal (gum or bone) tissues is a critical tool needed for your examination. Dentists use x-rays for many reasons: to fi nd hidden dental structures, malignant or benign masses, bone loss, and cavities. It is possible for both tooth decay and periodontal disease to be missed during a visual exam alone. Most people will have 4 small x-rays taken once a year during one of their cleaning visits. These are used to detect hidden decay and changes in bone density caused by gum disease. Sometimes a smaller, individual x-ray is needed to detect abnormalities of the root structure and surrounding bone of a tooth.

Civic election spending plan rolled outBy Kevin DiakiwTh e Wild West days

of unlimited spending in municipal election campaigns are about to end.

Th e province is pro-posing election spend-ing limits on civic gov-ernment, a move which is hoped to level the playing fi eld in local politics.

Th e proposed spend-ing limits are tallied on a per-capita basis and will be in eff ect for the

2018 civic election.Th e permitted spend-

ing amounts vary by the size of each municipali-ty according to a popu-lation-based formula.

It works out to $10,000 for mayoral candidates in cities of up to 10,000 people, rising to $89,250 for a population of 150,000, and reaching $149,250 for a city of 250,000.

An extra 15 cents per capita is added aft er 250,000 for the biggest cities.

Spending by council-lors, regional district di-rectors and school trust-ees would be capped at half the limit of mayors in their areas.

Based on Surrey’s population, the limit would be $96,366 for a city councillor and $188,750 for mayor.

If in place for last year’s civic election, the rules would have im-posed a cap on spend-ing for all eight Surrey First councillors and mayor to $957,678.

It would have sliced about $250,000 from the spending by Surrey First in 2014, a coalition which spent $1.2 mil-lion winning all seats on council.

Mayor Linda Hepner told Black Press Friday she’s comfortable with the proposed spending

limits.She described last

year’s election as a “bit of an anomaly” as it was so hotly contested.

“In my 30 years ex-perience… it cost a lit-tle more than an ordi-nary general election,” Hepner said. “Th is last election was an expen-sive go-round.”

Th e Minister of Com-munity, Sport and Cul-tural Development, Peter Fassbender, said in a release Oct. 22 the spending cap would in-crease with the cost of infl ation.

“I think they’ve got this right,” said Dermod Travis, executive direc-tor for Integrity B.C., adding the sliding scale of the formula refl ects the diff erent needs of small and large commu-nities.

“It’s unfortunate the other half of the equa-tion is not being tackled at the same time, which would be donations. But I think they’ve found a good middle for where those caps should be on expenses.”

If the cap had been in place for last year’s election, mayoral can-didate Barinder Rasode would have overspent by $123,917.

She said in an inter-view that due to sign damage and other inci-dentals, her group, One Surrey, spent more than it intended.

Nonetheless, Rasode said she welcomes the provincial move to cap election expenses.

“I think it’s really important to have elec-tion spending limits,” Rasode said.

She said the proposed legislation is a great start, but there needs to be further reforms to election conduct.

She also wants to see a ban on election signs “for sustainability rea-sons, but also cost rea-sons.”

She said the spending limits being introduced create a “level playing fi eld” for independents and others who might not have the same ac-cess to capital.

“I’m actually really proud of the campaign we ran,” Rasode said.

Asked if she would run again in 2018, Ra-sode wouldn’t rule it out.

“In three years, we will be looking at a very diff erent Surrey,” Raso-de said. “Th at decision is not one that I have to

make right now.”Fassbender said in

a news release that the spending limits were brought about by wishes of both voters and can-didates.

Th e recommenda-tions were developed by a special legislative committee and have support of both the B.C. Liberals and NDP, as well as the Union of B.C. Municipalities.

Th e expense limits would apply from Jan. 1 of the election year until voting day.

Th e government is expected to table the bill on local election spend-ing in the fall sitting of the B.C. legislature and is taking public com-ments in a fi nal round of consultations until Nov. 27.

Night bus to Surrey now runs overnightBy Jeff NagelAll-night SkyTrain it

is not.But TransLink has ex-

tended its night bus ser-vice between Vancouver and Surrey to fully cover the gap between the last SkyTrain out of down-

town at 1:16 a.m. until the rapid transit line restarts in the morning.

“It creates the fi rst 24-hour service on the Vancouver-Surrey route,” according to Coast Mountain Bus Co. president Haydn Acheson.

Th e last run of the N19, which mirrors the Expo Line route, used to be at 3:30 a.m. on week-ends. Late night revellers and shift workers who missed it faced a wait of up to four hours for the fi rst morning Sky-Train from downtown

home to the eastern suburbs.

Th e N19 buses out of downtown now run until 6:09 a.m. Satur-day mornings and 7:09 on Sundays – about 40 minutes before the fi rst morning SkyTrain.

N19 frequency also increased in Septem-ber to every 20 minutes from 1:39 a.m. to 4:09 every day and every 30 minutes aft er that on weekends, although some of those buses terminate in New West-minster rather than continuing to Surrey.

Acheson said the de-cision to increase fre-quency, both on the N19 and other night bus routes, is to ad-dress overcrowding and passups that were happening due to heavy demand on Friday and Saturday nights.

TransLink had been under pressure from downtown Vancouver bar owners to improve the service.

Passengers have re-peatedly demanded lat-er SkyTrain service.

An online petition circulated on Facebook in August called forSkyTrain to run until 3:10 a.m., aft er Vancou-ver bars close.

At least one of the campaigners declared the extended night bus service a victory, while others vowed to keep pushing for later Sky-Train runs.

TransLink says Sky-Train must shut down each night to allow crews to perform main-tenance.

One advantage night buses have over Sky-Train is that passengers can request a special stop between regular ones, as long as it’s a location the driver con-siders safe.

But not everyone en-joys the party bus vibe.

“Th e last N19 bus of any night is a lawless freak show on wheels,” tweeted passenger Va-nessa Dee. “If someone decided to drive it into the face of the sun, I’d understand.”

Awareness on the fi eld

Cloverdale students vote LiberalIf students in Cloverdale had their way, they

would have endorsed the Liberal candidate, John Aldag, for their riding in Cloverdale-Langley City.

Th ey were among the more than 850,000 students in 6,000 schools Canada-wide casting ballots in mock boxes as part of Student Vote 2015.

About 165,500 students in B.C. voted, with doz-ens of schools and thousands of kids and teens in Surrey were among those who took part.

Most of the local results matched those of the general election.

Surrey, the Surrey-Newton, Surrey Centre, Fleet-wood-Port Kells and Cloverdale-Langley City rid-ings all went to the Liberals in the student vote, just as they did aft er the election Oct. 19.

But former mayor turned Conservative MP Di-anne Watts would have been cast aside in favour of

Liberal Judy Higginbotham in South Surrey-White Rock.

Looking more closely at Cloverdale, Liberal John Aldag captured 279 student votes at Lord Tweeds-muir’s to win Cloverdale-Langley City (with 59.11 per cent of the student vote).

Conservative Dean Drysdale was next, with 20.97 per cent of the vote – less than the 35 per cent he captured on election night, with the NDP’s Re-becca Smith in third with 53 votes or 11.2 per cent, and Green Scott Anderson garnering 8.7 per cent of the student vote.

About 25 schools across the newly created riding participated in the student vote.

One of the largest student vote turnouts in the rid-ing was at Cloverdale’s Martha Currie Elementary,where 275 students cast a ballot.

Strategic voting had limited eff ect: pollsterBy Jeff NagelFor months, an-

ti-Conservative campaigners from en-vironmentalists to vet-erans tried to persuade like-minded voters to coalesce behind the strongest opponent in each riding.

But as the dust settles on the Liberals’ power-ful majority victory, it’s unclear if those strate-

gic voting attempts had great eff ect, other than to demolish Green Par-ty hopes to add seats.

Organizations like LeadNow and the Dog-wood Initiative funded riding-level polls to try to help guide progres-sive voters.

LeadNow recom-mended NDP candi-dates in 11 B.C. ridings, and the Liberals for two seats on the North

Shore. All but three of those chosen candi-dates won their races.

One notable excep-tion was the choice of the NDP candidate in Vancouver-Granville who ended up third be-hind the Liberal victor and the Conservative runner-up as voters apparently disregarded the advice.

Mario Canseco, vice-president of In-

sights West, which did polling for Dogwood, said strategic voting attempts appear to have had more eff ect on Vancouver Island than in the Lower Mainland, where those eff orts were swamped by the strength of the Liberal wave.

“Th ere are certain pockets where strategic voting worked very well and probably enabled some NDP victories,” he said, adding a few New Democrats were

elected on the Island who otherwise would not likely have pre-vailed over Conserva-tives.

LeadNow made no recommendations in some ridings presumed to be safe Conserva-tive seats that ended up hotly contested. Th ose included South Surrey-White Rock, where Conservative Dianne Watts narrowly prevailed, as well as Mission-Matsqui-Fras-er Canyon and Clo-

verdale-Langley City, where Liberals unex-pectedly captured turf that traditionally went Tory.

It’s diffi cult, Canseco said, for progressive strategists to get enough granular riding-level data on individual races to gauge how they are evolving in time to be useful to voters.

Strategic voting was based on the premise that Liberals, NDP and Green supporters would risk leaving

room for Conserva-tives to win many races unless they fi rst settled on a single consensus candidate.

A shorter campaign might have resulted in a Conservative victory, he said.

Instead, the Liberals had more time to build momentum and present leader Justin Trudeau as a viable prime minister.

Canseco doesn’t accept one theory that the red wave result-ed mainly from the Conservatives’ choice to emphasize the niqab issue in Quebec, harming NDP chances there and making the Liberals seem the more obvious alternative for the anyone-but-Harper movement.

He said NDP leader Tom Mulcair simply did not perform as well in debates or on the campaign trail as he did before in the House of Commons, and the choice to balance the budget made him seem like “a small ‘C’ Conser-vative” compared to the bolder Liberals.

“Th ey weren’t able to solidify this idea that they were the vehicle for change,” he said.

Friendly fi reIn the campaign’s fi nal

week, several prominent B.C. environmentalists publicly turned away from the Greens in fa-vour of either the NDP or Liberals, in the name of preventing another Conservative govern-ment.

Green leader Eliza-beth May likened it to being gunned down by “friendly fi re.”

When the votes were tallied, the Green vote in B.C. had increased only marginally – from 7.7 per cent to 8.2 per cent – and they hung onto only May’s seat.

Speaking to support-ers on election night, May said strategic vot-ing was a major factor.

“Particularly on Van-couver Island and the Lower Mainland was the notion that people who wanted to vote green shouldn’t. Couldn’t. Would be bad people if they did,” she said.

Th at was hard to overcome, May said, because many Greens, Liberals and New Dem-ocrats shared the same priority.

“It was simply not possible to imagine this country enduring a single second more of Stephen Harper’s policies.”

JENNIFER LANG PHOTOGroups opposing the Kinder Morgan pipeline expansion sought to persuade voters to coalesce around a single anti-Conservative candidate in swing ridings.

Seniors troupe hits centre stageB.C.’s number one seniors

entertainment troupe returns to the Surrey Arts Centre stage next month for two performances of Vintage Vaudeville.

Th is is the 12th year Th e Vaudevillians have appeared at the venue in support of a bursary for performing arts students at Douglas Col-lege, assisting a total of 27 students so far.

Both performances – Nov. 14 and 15 – are 2 p.m. matinees.

As of 2015, the group has raised more than $96,000 towards an endowment fund with the Vancouver

Foundation, and this year, the Surrey-based performers hope to top $100,000.

Th is year’s show – de-signed, as always, to appeal to an all-ages crowd – will explore the Vaudeville tradition through some of the most popular numbers of previous years, plus a few more favourites that audi-ences will remember, along with toe-tapping dances, humour and costumes.

Tickets are $22 and available at the box offi ce by calling 604-501-5566.

Comedy explores marriage, friendshipBy Jennifer LangDinner With Friends,

a bittersweet comedy that looks at the lives of two intertwined cou-ples, is the 2015-2016 season opener for Lang-ley Players.

Th e 2000 Pulitzer Prize-winning story by Donald Margulies ex-plores what happens to the couples when one

of the marriages falls apart.

Th is production, pre-sented Th ursdays to Sundays from Oct. 22 to Nov. 21 at the Lang-ley Playhouse (4307 200 Street, Langley), is di-rected by Mary Renvall and produced by Ray-mond Hatton, a club stalwart.

“What an exciting ex-

perience this has been, building the beautiful-ly-written show and de-

veloping the wonderful characters that we have grown to think of as our new-found friends,” says Renvall, who is also Langley Players presi-dent.

It stars Langley’s Gemma Martin and Terry Th omas, along with Larry Hamm of Chilliwack and Mis-sion’s Shannon Pedder.

Th e plotline is as fol-lows: Karen and Gabe and Beth and Tom have been vacationing at the vineyard every summer, raising kids and enjoy-ing countless dinners together.

But when one mar-riage dissolves, the cou-ples’ lives start to change course, pulling them in opposite directions.

Billed as amusing and richly-layered, Dinner with Friends is about the path you choose, the ones you don’t, and the detours you take along the way.

Showtimes are Th urs-day to Saturday at 8p.m., and Sundays at2 p.m. Tickets are $15.Reservations by call-ing 604-543-7469 or atlangleyplayers.com.

DINNER WITH FRIENDSPresented by Langley Players to Nov. 21 Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m.; Sunday Matinees 2 p.m.Info: LangleyPlayers.com
