Cycle to work/school

Making rounds

Hannah SutherlandStaff Reporter

Most days, Dr. Steve Larigakis can be seen cycling between his home and South Surrey office, logging 12 kilometres each way.

It’s been his preferred mode of transportation when commuting to work for the past 10 years.

“It’s just a lot of fun, and it’s good exercise without impacting seriously on one’s knees and joints,” he said.

Larigakis turned to cycling 15 years ago, after he developed knee problems from his participation in soccer and other team sports.

While he has competed in a few races, he considers himself a recreational road and mountain biker, riding to and from work during the week and joining his cycling club on Saturdays.

Now, with Bike to Work Week and Bike to School Week slated to begin Monday, Larigakis hopes to encourage others to give up their cars and opt for a bicycle instead.

He has joined two local teams registered with Bike to Work Week, including one comprising Peace Arch Hospital staff. The groups have signed up on the Vancouver Area Cycling Coalition’s website, where they can track their distance travelled, the greenhouse gas emissions they have saved by cycling and the calories they have burned.

Last year, Metro Vancouver cyclists logged more than a million kilometres on the site, and this year’s event is expected to draw more than 8,000 bike riders and 1,000 workplace teams.

Larigakis said he hopes the initiatives engage individuals as well as workplace teams.

Biking may not be an option for everyone – such as those who live

too close or far from the office. Larigakis suggested these people consider walking or using transit.

“We’re encouraging people to take at least one day out of that week to take an alternative mode of transportation,” he said, noting that with more cyclists, the city will be encouraged to build adequate bike paths, and motorists will become more

accustomed to sharing the road.Larigakis noted most households

have a bicycle. For some, it may be a matter of just dusting it off, fixing a flat and planning a tuneup.

“Biking is a safe and healthy way to get around and I’d encourage people to give it a try.”

Expenses necessary to do a good job for constituents, MP says

Hiebert says he would welcome audit

Planner terminated

City fraud allegations examined Kevin DiakiwBlack Press

A former planner with the City of Surrey continues to be the target of an RCMP investigation regarding allegations of defrauding the city.

The allegations came to light ear-lier this year when someone outside of city hall reported the irregulari-ties to authorities. The area planner was terminated “with cause,” but Mayor Dianne Watts would not say Thursday what that cause was.

Several developers are also being interviewed in the investigation.

“Anyone involved in this situ-ation is being spoken to by the RCMP,” Watts said.

“They’re reviewing some of the files this individual has worked on and then they are speaking to all the people who were involved.”

She would only say the amount of money in question is “significant.”

Watts noted the planner in ques-tion has been with the city for some time, and that a KPMG audit will likely stretch back to the early days of the planner’s employment.

After that, it will likely cover other area planners, then everyone in the planning department.

The city will also address how transactions are undertaken within the city to ensure similar problems don’t occur in the future.

More details will be made avail-able if and when charges are laid.

Alex BrowneStaff Reporter

Conservative MP Russ Hiebert is continuing to fight a media firestorm unleashed by news that his expenses were the second highest for an MP in Canada in 2008-2009.

Hiebert (South Surrey-White Rock-Cloverdale) has defended his budget for that fiscal year on grounds that travel costs had pushed the figure to $637,093,

second only to Manitoba MP Steven Fletcher (a quadriplegic with special expenses in fulfilling his duties).

In a Black Press poll of Surrey MPs, all four said they would welcome an audit.

Hiebert’s expenses have been widely reported and have been a steady topic on open-line radio programs.

He said by email earlier this week that he and his wife, Andrea, want to keep their family together (they are parents

of two young girls), and this means they travel together the weeks Parliament is in session.

In answer to further questions from the Peace Arch News, Hiebert responded by email Wednesday, holding to the line that his expenses are necessary for him to do a good job for his constituents, and that costs incurred are within House Of Commons guidelines and protocol.

“I booked my travel through the

House of Commons’ travel service,” he wrote. “They work to get the best pos-sible prices from the airlines.”

Hiebert also said his travel expenses will vary year-to-year based mainly on the number of weeks the House of Commons is in session.

At press time, Hiebert’s office was not able to provide a detailed breakdown of his travel expenses for 2008-2009.

South Surrey-White Rock-Cloverdale MP Russ Hiebert is coming under

fire for his expenses, which totalled $637,093 in 2008-09.

However, the Conservative MP’s explanation that much of the money has been spent on keeping his family with him as much as possible is both plausible and laudable.

He is in an unusual situation as an MP – he comes from the area of Canada that is among the most remote from the nation’s capital, and he has a young family that deserves to have as much time with their father as possible.

Hiebert has always stressed the importance of family, from the time he first sought the Conservative nomination until the present. He and his wife, Andrea, have two young daughters, and the travel required of MPs from B.C. is something that very few of his constituents would be prepared to put up with.

I have known all the men and women who have served as MPs from Surrey and Delta over the past 35 years. One thing became quite clear to me, after getting to know them as individuals. The travel required of an MP from B.C. is absolutely draining.

I recall running into former

Surrey North MP Jim Karpoff years ago at the Vancouver Airport. He was on his way to catch a plane at about noon

on Sunday. This was standard routine. He would come home every two weeks or so, usually on a red eye flight that arrived Friday morning. He would do a whole round of constituency work and community events on Friday and Saturday, have a few brief moments with his family – and then it was back to Ottawa.

MPs from Ontario and Quebec can often get home within an hour or two. Naturally, their expenses will be much lower – as they should be.

But they also have the opportunity for more normal family lives than MPs from B.C. do.

It is not by accident that many of the people who seek federal nominations in B.C. are in their 40s and 50s. If they have had families, their

families are past the stage where their presence is vital. They are ready to devote more time and energy to the job of being an MP – and many of them have done very good jobs for their constituents over the years.

While the argument could be made that someone with a young family shouldn’t seek office, that would mean that a

certain segment of society is not well represented in Ottawa.

Most MPs are past the age of 40. They come from a generational mindset that is very different than the one occupied by younger people.

For example, the tax burden on young people is far higher than it ever was on previous generations. Many of them have difficulty getting good jobs, and if they do manage that, it often means tens of thousands in student debts.

They must juggle paying taxes and debts with the added burden of very high home-ownership costs. Soon they will be paying HST on many previously exempt items, adding to the pressure on their bottom line.

The voices of that generation need to be heard in the House of Commons, and young voices from B.C. are an important part of the mix.

However, Hiebert should make more effort to see if he can reduce his expenses in other areas, and allow for the added family travel. Taxpayers deserve to have their money treated with care, and the fact is that most employers would not pay additional expenses so that families can spend more time together.

Hiebert’s devotion to his family is commendable, but he also needs to reduce his expenses to a level that is more in line with other MPs.

Park placeAlex BrowneStaff Reporter

Looking for parking on Marine Drive on West Beach this spring and summer? Follow the signs with the stylized orange ‘P’ – denoting valet parking.

The program, spearheaded by Cielo’s restaurant owner Matthew Hale and co-operated by indepen-dent businessman Hugh Smith, started up last Friday.

And it is to be in service every night of the week from 4:30 p.m. to 12:30 a.m. until late October, providing some relief from over-crowded – and expensive – public lots on the waterfront.

And Smith, who said the price per evening for patrons of any Marine Drive establishment is $12, believes it’s a livable option for people who would be paying $3 an hour in the public lots anyway, under White Rock’s new rates.

For restaurant staff working on Marine, it’s an even more afford-able option – $5 per evening.

“When you’re making $8.50 per hour before taxes, $3 per hour for parking is a big deal,” said Smith.

The program has the backing of area restaurants, with the city and White Rock BIA as co-sponsors.

A recently married family man, Smith was looking for a venture that could keep him closer to home this summer – and the valet park-ing project seemed tailor-made.

“I live at the beach right behind Cielo’s… and I know parking has been a problem for a long time,” he added, noting that he had observed the pilot valet parking program pioneered by Hale two years ago.

“When pay parking hit $3, I said to Matt, ‘will you be doing it again?’ But he’s got his hands kind of full,

so he said ‘if you want to run it, we can partner up on it.’

“It’s great to be involved in this and great that it has city and BIA support. I’ve been passionate about the city since I moved here in 1999.”

The city has made available two parking spots on Martin Street near Victoria Avenue for the pro-gram, which is signed by sandwich boards on Martin Street, and city signs on Marine Drive.

Users of the program just have to pull in at one of the spaces, where they receive a valet parking chit and turn over their vehicle keys.

“Then one of our two drivers runs it up the hill to one of the parking spaces we’ve negotiated at private locations and business lots that aren’t being used in the evening.”

Smith said patrons can ask at whichever Marine Drive restau-rant they choose about valet park-ing discounts.

“We sell coupons to some of them, which they may give to cus-tomers for a $3 or $4 discount.”

At the end of the evening, patrons can telephone the number on the parking chit, which will give driv-ers a chance to deliver cars down the hill before they even leave the restaurant, to avoid longer waits at Martin Street.

“We’re trying to make this a five-minute service,” said Smith. “We understand the value to this is being quick and timely.”

Smith noted drivers operating the program are fully insured, experienced and with clean driv-ing records.

“They’re the same drivers who

did the pilot program, and that ran without an accident or any prob-lems or complaints,” he said.

Smith said he has met with 15 Marine Drive restaurateurs and all are very supportive of the program, which benefits them equally.

“The whole beach feel has to be a positive one,” he said. “It’s a foundational thing, just like with a building. Once we get the patrons down there, and get them parked, everything settles from there. It’s up to the businesses’ own mar-keting to get customers in their restaurants.

“Getting the backing of White Rock council is a positive thing. The brand here is not as strong as it could be, and parking has been a problem, but this is a great creative way to help solve it. White Rock is open for business.”

Penalties have included $10,000 and jail time

Fishery officers ready to muscle in on poachingTracy HolmesStaff Reporter

Three Lower Mainland women are facing stiff penalties in connection with the seizure of 200 clams Tuesday.

The bivalves – scooped from the sand in less than 45 minutes – were confiscated by fishery officers around 4 p.m. May 25, after a plainclothes officer witnessed the trio dig up the clams from the shoreline near the foot of 1,001 Steps.

Approached by uniformed officers as they returned to their vehicle on 126A Street, it was clear the women had an idea they were in the wrong, fishery officer Neil Jensen said.

“One of them tried to hide it on us as we pulled in behind them,” Jensen said, describ-ing an attempt to throw a bag of clams in the parked vehicle that ended with part of the haul hanging outside of the car.

“It just goes to show they know better.”Harvesting bivalves – including oysters,

clams, scallops, mussels and cockles – has been prohibited in Boundary Bay since 1970, due to contamination. The filter feed-

ers take in, concentrate and retain poisons that enter the ocean, including heavy metals and pesticides.

“It’s highly, highly toxic,” Jensen said, liken-ing the risk of consuming the seafood to that of licking a road surface.

“I don’t know why people take chances with it.”

With warmer weather a more regular occurrence, and daytime tides more frequent, patrols to curb the activity are picking up, Jensen said. Tuesday, the officers patrolled from the Peace Arch to Blackie Spit. And while the three women were the only offenders spotted, Jensen is

confident things will pick up.“It’s only going to get busier,” he said.

“Despite the high fines that Surrey court has been handing out... we don’t see a decrease in the amount of people doing this.”

The women dealt with Tuesday “claimed they didn’t know and they didn’t see the signs,” said fishery officer Lindsay Johnston.

It’s a statement the enforcement crew hears on a regular basis, but one that does little to

get those caught red-handed off the hook. And Tuesday was no exception.

“The sign was posted right at the entrance (to 1,001 Steps),” Johnston said.

The women, who hailed from Burnaby, Richmond and Vancouver, were ordered to appear in court in connection with the illegal harvest. Typically, fines for hauls of comparable size range from $500 to $1,500,

Jensen said. Penalties for first offences can also include fishing prohibitions and even vehicle forfeiture.

Fishery officer Dave Clattenburg said one man who pleaded guilty to harvesting approximately 500 pounds of Manila clams from Blackie Spit in July 2008 was fined $10,000 in Surrey Provincial Court. Abbots-ford resident Khai Tran, 34, spent 30 days in jail after he told the judge he couldn’t afford the penalty, Clattenburg said. The judge also ordered that a minivan seized at the time of the bust be forfeited.

Clattenburg and Jensen said one chal-lenge in tackling the problem is people don’t believe the bivalves are contaminated. Another is that many people who aren’t involved in the harvesting don’t understand how it could impact them; that it could end up on their own dinner plate, toxins and all.

They encouraged anyone spotting ques-tionable activity on the local beaches to call the DFO 24-hour hotline at 604-666-3500 or toll-free at 1-800-465-4336.

Officers will drop what they are doing to deal with the priority calls, they said.

Civic election lobbying

Mayor joins businesses’bid for vote

White Rock Mayor Catherine

Ferguson is one of eight B.C. mayors and councillors to endorse the return of the business vote in local government elections.

According to the Canadian Federation of Independent Business, restoring the business vote is about creating a stronger incentive to listen to the concerns of business, which are different from residents’ concerns at the municipal level.

“I have to commend these municipal representatives that have made a very personal commitment to restore representation to their local business community,” CFIB’s Brian Bonney said in a release.

White Rock Business Improvement Association directors are also endorsing the return of the vote, stating in a release that the initiative is important for small- and medium-sized business to be heard by local government.

“White Rock has a small tax base and currently businesses are paying three times as much as residences are paying,” the release states. “Therefore, it is imperative for maintaining an affordable tax base for local residences that small business continue to prosper and grow. By having a voice at election time, businesses can hopefully express their concerns to council – and be heard.”

Ferguson could not be reached for comment by press time.

But most of it, his office confirmed, was for travel between the riding and Ottawa, which under House rules can include the member, spouse and any dependent child.

It can also include staff travel for a training session in Ottawa – usually not more than once per year – plus other travel by Hiebert in Canada on parliamentary business, which in 2008-2009 included two caucus meet-ings and a Conservative party con-vention in Winnipeg.

In addition to airfare, travel costs also include taxi fare to and from air-ports and Parliament Hill.

Asked about printing and telephone costs, which were higher than other B.C. MPs ($81,888 on printing and $23,148 for telephone service in fiscal 2008-2009), Hiebert said it was again a matter of fulfilling his duties.

“I work hard to keep in touch with constituents and find out what they are thinking, and my expenses for communications reflect that commit-ment,” he wrote. “Again, the House of Commons endeavours to obtain the best prices for paper, ink, long-distance services and equipment for the use of MPs.”

The issue of MP expenses became a hot topic after federal auditor general Sheila Fraser had asked to perform an audit on some $533 million in annual spending by the House of Commons – a review that would include assess-ment of value for money and the costs incurred by sitting MPs.

Surrey members alone – including Hiebert, fellow Conservatives Nina

Grewal and Dona Cadman and Lib-eral Sukh Dhaliwal – spent a total $1.9 million during 2008-2009.

Dhaliwal spent $526,265 for that year, while Grewal spent $491,768.

Cadman’s expense bill amounted to $263,016 for the year, but she had only been in office 5½ months at the time the figures were tallied.

The all-party Board of Internal Economy, charged with overseeing House spending, turned down Fraser’s request, but, following outcry from the public and media, the Conserva-tive government has said it plans to introduce a proposal ensuring greater transparency in parliamentary spend-ing. It is unclear, however, whether that would include audit procedures.

Hiebert said in an email that he is in favour of an audit.

“With regard to this whole issue with… MP expenses, I am keen to see it resolved in a way that increases transparency,” Hiebert wrote.

“I believe all MPs want Canadians to have the confidence that their dollars are being well-spent.”

Dhaliwal, Grewal and Cadman voiced support this week for an audit.

“If we can make improvements or achieve efficiencies, I am all in favour of an audit by the auditor general,” Dhaliwal told Black Press.

“We are transparent and have noth-ing to hide,” Grewal offered. “If that means opening the books to the audi-tor general, be it so.”

“I have always fought for account-ability… and welcome any initiatives to improve the process,” Cadman said.

It would be uncharitable not to spare some sympathy for Russ Hiebert.

The beleaguered South Surrey-White Rock-Cloverdale MP began his week think-ing he was defending himself against a single news item, that listed him as one of Canada’s costliest MPs, by pointing out this was to allow his family to fly with him to Ottawa.

By week’s end, he’s found himself turned into a poster-boy for government waste.

Taking Hiebert’s explanation at face value, it’s a legitimate – if arguable – position. Do we really want our family-aged representatives to risk separation from their children to do our time-intensive bidding half-way across the country? But before we ponder this, we must ask whether Hiebert is not being miserly with his explanation.

Fact is, travel is only one facet of our MP’s expenses that are higher than average. Printing and telephone expenses are both excessive, which he defended later in the week – via the shielded forum of email, naturally – as the cost of communicating with his constituents.

As well, Hiebert justified his rankings by not-ing both that the report was old and that his travel costs are for a family of four, conve-niently sidestepping that during the period in question – the 2008-’09 fiscal year – the Hie-berts were merely a family of three, making us that much more incredulous about the mount-ing comparative costs.

What is particularly interesting is the number of people who have said that they would be far less critical if they felt they were getting something of value for their tax money in their representative in Ottawa. Instead, they are get-ting a party loyalist whose accomplishments are somewhat intangible.

While it could be argued Hiebert has done no real damage as a member of Parliament, even his most fervent supporters must be asking what he has succeeded in actually doing in this Conservative-friendly constituency that couldn’t be accomplished by any yes-man or yes-woman. (Yes, we appreciate any grant money to come our way; and yes, we deserve it.)

By most accounts, Hiebert seems a pleasant person. He shows dedication to his causes, is quick to offer a kind word and his enthusiasm for civil niceties is to be admired.

Indeed, Hiebert makes it difficult not to sym-pathize with him.

Yet, after years of listening to his partisan rhetoric about curbing government spending, it is more difficult to support him.

Whoo-wee, you say. You were just fit to bust if I didn’t get around to writing

I had to use one of my other utility knives to get at my new utility knives.

I know… if I already had one, then why did I buy two more?

Because they had cool metallic blue

handles, came with a zippered case, and an assortment of funky shaped blades

clearly designed for purposes I have yet to discover.

But back to the packaging.I don’t know why they call

them blister packs, unless it’s because you can get blisters opening them. However, lacerations and abrasions are far more likely.

Not only are these things an absolute scourge upon the environment, they’re downright dangerous.

No amount of prying, pulling, ripping, clawing, biting or growling gets you into a sealed

blister pack.That requires a knife, scissors or axe.Now, bring together some sort of

bladed instrument, and an impatient guy eager to get at his new toy/tool/product, encased in bulletproof plastic.

No good can come of this scenario.It’s just really wrong to bleed profusely

for something you’re going to throw away, don’t you think?

So tell me this.Why does any inert, harmless object

– be it pliers, jewel-studded cellphone

case or dog whistle – have to be encased in hermetically sealed, blast-resistant plastic?

Twenty-four pieces for a doll set (made of plastic, by the way) are all fastened in another piece of plastic – individually moulded and secured.

That’s 24 opportunities to visit the emergency room. Then there’s the stuff that comes in a blister pack inside a cardboard box. What’s the matter with just the box? I mean, we’re not dealing with nuclear waste here.

My particular peeve… spinach.Yes – the green, leafy stuff that’s good

for you – in a non-biodegradable plastic container.

Even more ridiculous? Organic foods that come in non-biodegradable plastic containers.

Think about that. You want good, healthy produce from Mom Nature, and then you trash her with the packaging.

Come on, people. We’re starting to cotton on to the cloth grocery bag concept. Now we have to stand up and tell companies to quit with the plastic.

This junk didn’t exist 20 years ago, and we got along just fine.

We bought six screws when we needed six screws, not 10 in a blister pack. We paid for them and put them in a pocket, or maybe a paper bag.

Crude, simple, low-tech. Planet-friendly.

Old tricks still work.Andrew Holota is the editor of the

Abbotsford News, sister paper to the Peace Arch News.

But what has Hiebert done?

Limited empathy Editor: Re: MP defends expense ranking as family matter, May 26.

Backbench MP Russ Hiebert was elected with the mandate to fight government waste.

The South Surrey-White Rock-Cloverdale MP turns out to be one of the biggest spenders in Parliament, spending over $637,000 – $214,000 of that in travel.

It is time the auditor general resets the guidelines and scrutinizes MPs’ spending. We want detailed expense accounts made public.

Russ piously explains he brings his family along as he is committed to keeping his family together. We have just gone through a difficult recession, and many Canadians have had to struggle, pinch pennies and lower their lifestyles.

As a taxpayer I feel Hiebert’s pious explanation is a slap in the face. Lorraine Pfortmueller, Surrey

Elitist attitudeAn open letter to MP Russ Hiebert.It saddened me to learn of your

justification for charging taxpayers for you and your wife’s personal decisions regarding family matters.

Whilst it may be laudable for you to be able to see your wife and children on a daily basis, it would be much more morally agreeable if this decision was afforded on your nickel, not mine. Yes, you may have a young family, but you chose to be parachuted into this riding. You chose to seek election knowing that the position would require time in Ottawa and, for most members of Parliament, time away from family.

Whilst you feel an entitlement of taxpayer coverage for your family, you also blatantly suggest daycare services should not be provided for those who require the same in order to care for their families.

Does this not suggest a double-standard or, at the very least, an elitist attitude that your family situation is more important than that of other Canadian families? Christina MacLellan, White Rock

Job requirementThe media reports that MP Russ

Hiebert flies his family back and forth between here and Ottawa, his place of employment.

My records show that for 21 years, I was away from home an average of 162 days and nights, logging 102 flights worldwide each year conducting business for Canada.

Thousands of others have the same life; no private company pays weekly travel expenses for family members. What is the difference between an MP and a senior manager of a company directly responsible for hundreds of jobs and Canada’s balance of payments?

I presume Hiebert knew what was expected of him when he accepted the nomination. Or are the travel privileges part of a new policy of “Canada’s New Government?” Wolfgang Schmitz, White Rock

Submit your bills I, like most South Surrey-White

Rock constituents, was shocked to learn our local MP, Russ Hiebert, last year had the second highest travel and constituency expenses in the country of $637,000.

This is in a geographically small riding. No wonder the MPs of all stripes have banded together to scuttle the auditor general from examining their expense claims.

Mr. Hiebert, I voted for you and now it is time for you to be transparent. Take a lead and submit all your expenses to the Peace Arch News so we can all have a look at where $637,000 of taxpayers’ money was spent or squandered.Don Hardie, Surrey

15 minutes of infamyIt is human nature to want to be

the best – to want to be top of the heap, head of the class, king of the hill. Unfortunately, sometimes being on top is the worst place to be.

Our local MP, Russ Hiebert, is case in point. He’s absolutely the best at spending our tax dollars, and by doing so managed to put our constituency prominently into the papers. Wow! Our name is now all over the country and we have had our 15 minutes of fame.

Hiebert has managed to spend more than $600,000, all the while not having a cabinet post or any particular function in Parliament that would legitimize these expenses.

What is he spending money on? Taking his family to Ottawa is costly – but even that would not account for spending almost $400,000 more than the prime minister.

Personally, I could have done without this dubious honour of having a spendthrifty MP, who, when running for office, proclaimed to be able to bring change and honesty to Parliament.

I suggest his board have a serious

chat with their MP. This is a Conservative stronghold, but going into the next election with Hiebert at the helm might be risky business. Edie Williams, Surrey

Expenses add upAn open letter to MP Russ Hiebert.It is with the utmost pride I’ve

learned that in the 2008-’09 fiscal year, you generated the second highest expenses in all of Canada among MPs, and were tops in B.C.

I am very grateful that you have spent so much of our money while supporting our local economy.

However, in these times of fiscal restraint, I fear you might lose sleep over how to make do with less, just like the rest of us. I noticed you spent $81,888 in “printing,” so I respectfully suggest that on your next trip to the print shop, you can order one less of those unsolicited letters to your constituents. And I’ll see if I can’t scare up something else with which to line my birdcage.

I realize it’s a little thing, but given how many letters you send, I’m sure it’ll add up. Given the totals from the last fiscal year, it already has.S.K. Cheung, Surrey

Parachuted ConservativeRuss Hiebert, whatever could you

have been doing for the constituents to warrant such huge expenses?

The media says your staff says it is trips within Canada. Is that why no one ever sees you here? Is that why you won’t meet with constituents and fear them so much you close your office when they show up?

How is this the taxpayer’s best use of time, money and behaviour? I see on the government website you were in the house and voted 29 times on legislation for each term. Wow!

It’s time local voters woke up to the parachuted Conservative that continues to be imposed on them.

What kind of representation have we endured since 2004? Should we

taxpayers be paying for your tourist jaunts and evangelical speaking tours on behalf of the partisan interests of Prime Minister Stephen Harper? Are you a part of the Cons’ efforts to reshape the country’s social, cultural and even scientific policies, driven by ideology and a belief that Canada has a biblically ordained role to play in the final days before Armageddon?Pat Petrala, White Rock

Excessive spendingIt is indeed unfortunate Russ

Hiebert has to be B.C.’s MP with the largest expense account.

Hiebert has oft preached government restraint and, along with Conservative colleagues, seen government accountability as a key issue during election campaigns.

The life of an MP is demanding. It is laudable for Hiebert and his wife to make a conscious effort at maintaining their marriage and parental requirements. That being said, I do not see why, especially in this economic climate, the taxpayer has to pay for his familial demands. Simply because this excessive spending falls under the normal guidelines of costs incurred does not excuse the hypocrisy of preaching one message and living out another.Mike Schouten, South SurreyChristian Heritage Party candidate

Claim to fameWhat has MP Russ Hiebert done

to spend more than $637,000 of our money in a 12-month period?

An aide has said he travels back to his constituency every weekend, yet we never see him. He is not available when we want to pose questions to him, closing his office at the first sign of having to face a group.

He leads all MPs in spending, except a Manitoba MP who needs special arrangements because he is quadriplegic. Some claim to fame.Terry Garvey, Surrey

School jobscombined

Payroll, vacation and substitute-teacher scheduling are being amalgamated in Surrey and B.C.’s three other largest school districts, in the first step of a province-wide project.

Education Minister Margaret Macdiarmid said Thursday Kamloops-Thompson, Vancouver and North Vancouver were also selected because together with Surrey they represent nearly one-third of B.C.’s public school students.

Macdiarmid said the project will produce savings. The savings will go back into the classroom, she said, but it is too soon to tell what savings will be had and what jobs will be gained and lost.

“What we do know is government’s done this in other areas, sharing services, and they’ve saved on the order of 10 to 15 per cent,” Macdiarmid said. “The current cost estimated for the school districts is about $70 million, and so if we saved the minimum, it would be on the order of $7 million.”

White Rock firefighter Bira Bindra has seen the impact Vari-ety the Children’s Charity can have.

It made his daughter smile.Ramneek was just five years old

when she was struck by a debili-tating stroke in March 2002, after contracting an infection through a dental procedure. The stroke took her from being a healthy, energetic and athletic child to the brink of death.

Doctors at the time told Ram-neek’s parents she wouldn’t sur-vive.

“It was a very difficult time for our family, very difficult,” Bindra said this week. “You want to take their place, but you can’t.”

Eight years later, as Bindra helps ready the fire crew for its biggest fundraiser ever – Shore2Shore, a 6,800-kilometre, cross-Canada bike relay – he is thrilled the funds raised by the effort will benefit Variety.

“When (fellow firefighters) told me that they had chosen Variety Club, I was really excited about it,” he said. “I know what they do for a lot of kids in the province.”

The organization provided Ramneek with a customized tri-cycle that enabled the youngster to ride with her friends. It came after a staff member at Sunny Hill Health Centre for Children noticed Ramneek’s love of the bike during her rehabilitation,

and applied to Variety on behalf of the family for a bike she could use at home.

“It was completely fitted for her,” Bindra said. “For some peo-ple, it may sound like a small thing, but to us, it was huge. Just to see the smile on her face.”

White Rock firefighters hope Shore2Shore will raise $100,000. With four months to go before the September ride, they are one-third of the way to their goal.

Bindra was to be one of eight White Rock firefighters riding in Shore2Shore, but due to a knee injury has had to step back from the full ride. He is back-ing the effort by covering shifts at the fire hall during the team’s two-week journey, and is pre-pared to jump in should one of

the other riders – Eric Kameka, James Davison, Mike Passas, Al McNabb, Cordell Fulton, Evan Bird, Patrick Ryan or former White Rock auxiliary firefighter Mike Fraser – be forced to pull out.

Bindra is not the only firefighter who can relate to the cause. Davi-son’s niece was helped by Variety; and Kameka spent a lot of his own childhood in hospital.

“I was never in need of any care like that from Variety, but I expe-rienced and spent time with kids that did,” Kameka said.

The team launched the ride officially Wednesday at the Pacific Avenue fire hall.

The 18-year-old Surrey woman accused of killing another Sur-rey teenager at a Vancouver house party made a brief court appearance Wednesday morning in Vancouver Provincial Court.

Katey Renieta Gonzales said noth-ing during the few minutes she stood in the prisoner’s box, long enough for her lawyer and the prosecutor to set a date for her next court appearance early next month.

Gonzales is a tiny, round-faced woman, 5’1” in height. Her dark hair was pulled up in a knot and she was wearing a loose grey T-shirt.

A number of anxious-looking rela-tives were in the visitor’s gallery for her first court appearance since she

turned herself into police.Gonzales is charged with second-

degree murder in the May 21 stabbing death of Angela Qiu, 17.

Qiu was found lying unconscious on the sidewalk near Knight Street and East 51 Avenue around 1 a.m. suffer-ing from multiple stab wounds.

She was rushed to hospital but died of her injuries shortly after.

Another girl, 16, had also been wounded. She was taken to hospital, where she was treated and released.

Vancouver police said the two were stabbed after a fight broke out with another girl at a party in a nearby basement suite. About 40 drunken teens were found in the rental home, police said. It is believed no adults were at the residence when the party was happening.

A popular program that puts RCMP officers on the waterfront in formal attire has returned to White Rock beach for the summer.

The Mountie on the Promenade program launched May 23, and will continue every other Sunday through the season.

It’s an opportunity for tourists and residents alike to meet and have their photo taken with an officer in Red Serge – an opportunity that doesn’t

come along every day, said Const. Janelle Shoihet.

“We often have that request,” Shoihet said.

Without the program, “it’s hard for tourists to find a Mountie in Red Serge.”

One officer will be out and about between 1 and 5 p.m. every second Sunday. The next appearance is set for June 6.

perspectives…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula

Hannah SutherlandStaff Reporter

For Bonnie McMillan, it’s all about the memories.

They’re captured in the photo collage arranged under the glass counter near the entrance of Rae-Cene’s, as well as written in a notebook filled with farewell messages from the store’s many loyal customers. And they’re a part of the business McMillan, 66, will be able to take with her after closing its doors at the end of the month.

“It’s a happy-sad ending,” she said earlier this week, when there were just a few racks of clothes left in the otherwise empty shop.

Before McMillan announced her plans last month to retire and close Rae-Cene’s, it was brimming with a bountiful selection of cruise-wear, dresses and other fashionable

apparel for women of all ages.“I always thought I was the Palm Springs

of White Rock,” McMillan said, smiling.She began working at the boutique as an

associate in 1986, a year after it opened. The mother-of-two had moved to the

Peninsula from Manitoba, and, having been a school teacher, was looking for a new career.

In 1991, she bought Rae-Cene’s, which has changed locations three times, all the while staying in Semiahmoo Shopping Centre.

Many of the customers have been coming in as long as McMillan has worked there, and – despite a lack of merchandise – they were still stopping by to visit and browse in the store’s final days.

One woman who has shopped there for 25

years recently returned to buy an outfit for her centennial birthday celebration.

“It was kind of like icing on the cake to see someone come in after all these years to pick out her 100th birthday outfit.”

For McMillan, it’s been the little things that count when running a business, such as remembering customers by name, and including messages of gratitude

and encouragement on employees’ paystubs. One associate even told McMillan she looked forward to the notes just as

much as the cheques.“You’re selling clothes, but it’s kind of

more than that,” she said. Although she will miss the people at Rae-

Cene’s – and the relationships she formed with them – McMillan said she is ready to

move on. “It’s time to walk the beach – and I’ll be

looking for my customers along the way.”Many of those customers have written

notes to McMillan in a book her employees put on the front counter three weeks ago.

“You are truly an inspiration for women of all ages and sizes,” one writes. “You dressed the ladies of South Surrey and White Rock to look our best.”

Tears fill McMillan’s eyes when she thinks about the little of the book she has looked at so far – she plans to save the rest for future reading.

“I will sit on the beach one day and read all the lovely comments.”

With retirement just days away, McMillan is now looking forward to visiting her son, daughter-in-law and granddaughter in California – and walking the beach there.

❝You’re selling clothes, but it’s kind of more than that.❞

A 12-hour spin-a-thon to raise money for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation takes place June 2 at Elgin Park Secondary.

The second annual event – organized by EPS’ student leadership team – is hoped to raise $40,000 for the cause. It’s led by Grayden Quinn, a Grade 12 student at Elgin whose brother, Mason, has juvenile (Type 1) diabetes, a chronic disease in which the pancreas does not produce the life-sustaining hormone, insulin.

Type 1 diabetes must be managed 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Health complications can include kidney failure, blindness, amputation, stroke, heart attack and reduced life expectancy. Mason is one of eight EPS students living with the condition.

“I have a real drive to do something that moves towards a cure and helps my brother live a normal life,” Grayden Quinn said in a statement. “I want my brother to be free from the worry, the needles, the checking and the constant monitoring that characterizes every day.”

The spin-a-thon was inspired by Cyclebetes, an event that was founded in 2007 after a Vancouver father

promised his daughter he would do everything in his power to find a cure for her Type 1 diabetes before she turns 18. That same year, in support of this goal, Team H2V cycled 6,000 kilometres over eight days to raise money for JDRF.

As of last week, 51 teams – including families whose children were recently diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes – had signed up for the June 2 Elgin Park Cyclebetes Spin-a-Thon.

The day, with bands, singers, contests, prizes, karaoke and a DJ, challenges teams of up to 12 riders to pedal a stationary bike for the cause.

The event will also feature a community barbecue sponsored by Choices Markets. The top fundraiser will win two tickets to anywhere Air Canada flies in North America; the top fundraising team will win a three-hour limo ride. Prizes will also be awarded for the best-dressed team, the most original team and the best costumes.

To register, contact Grayden Quinn at [email protected] or 604-538-8790. Anyone interested in donating prizes or sponsoring the event may contact Sue Janzen at [email protected]

The newly revised White Rock/Sur-rey chapter of Canadian Association of Retired Persons launched with a wine and cheese evening this month at Rotary Fieldhouse.

Special guest was Susan Eng, vice presi-dent of advocacy for the national orga-nization, who spoke May 19 on pension reform and how CARP members can affect change in the country.

After about a year in inactivity, the local chapter – comprised of approximately 1,500 members – elected a new board, and is now looking to raise its profile, encourage new membership and promote the association’s “new vision of aging in Canada.”

For more information on becoming a member, contact April Lewis at 604-536-8717 or [email protected] or visit www.carp.ca

The number of large ships that will cruise the waters off Antarctica may be limited in the future, making now the perfect time to book a cruise to Antarctica during the upcoming December 2010-February 2011 high season.

Antarctica’s glacial beauty can be intimidating, but it is actually a fragile ecosystem. To help protect the White Continent and its wildlife, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) passed a rule last year that will ban the use or carrying of heavy fuel oils – the type usually used by large cruise ships – in Antarctic waters. The idea is that this will remove even the possibility of a harmful spill of heavy fuel oil into the sea.

Recently, the IMO set a date for the new rule to take effect: August 21, 2011. That means the coming Antarctic cruise season may be the last for some large ships (in general, those that carry more than 500 passengers).

Cruise ships will still be allowed to use marine gas oil and marine diesel oil in Antarctic waters, which are already used by most of the smaller ships that cruise to the Antarctic. These ships often get closer to the continent than large ships can – some are even able to use Zodiac boat tenders to give guests the thrill of stepping

onto Antarctic ice. However, these smaller ships can lack the range of comforts and amenities that many leisure cruise travellers expect.

Passengers on larger ships are able to see the scenic wonders of Antarctica – sparkling cliffs of ice, drifting icebergs, deep blue waters and steadfast penguins,

to name a few – while enjoying the greater variety of accommodations, dining and entertainment options that larger ships can provide.

Cruise lines that have Antarctic cruises planned for the coming season include Celebrity Cruises, Crystal Cruises, Holland America Line, Princess Cruises, Regent Seven Seas Cruises and Silversea Cruises. Of these lines, Crystal and Regent Seven Seas have announced that 2010-2011 will be their last Antarctic cruise season, while Holland America has announced that it will continue to sail in Antarctica beyond 2011. In addition, Azamara Club Cruises’ Journey, a mid-size ship that carries 700 passengers, plans to enter Antarctic waters for the fi rst time in late 2011.

To take advantage of the wide selection of ships and itineraries available for the upcoming Antarctic cruise season, talk with your travel professional at Cruise Holidays of White Rock. 604-531-3307

lifestylesCamp Day

Peninsula Tim Hortons locations will join branches across the country in donating every penny of coffee sales on June 2 – as well as funds raised through other events and activities – to the Tim Horton Children’s Foundation.

The non-profit organization offers a camping experience to children whose families would not otherwise be able to afford it.

With more than 14,000 children attending this year, the goal is to surpass the $9.4 mil-lion raised at last year’s Camp Day.

Garage sale B.C. Ambassador

Hayley Woodin will hold a garage sale fundraiser Saturday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at 15432 Goggs Ave.

Money raised at the May 29 event will benefit Free the Children, a non-profit organization that encourages youth in North America to improve the lives of

children overseas.The three ambas-

sadors in the B.C. Ambassador Program are raising funds to build a school in Kenya, and are $3,000 short of their goal.

Grant adviceCommunity

organizations are invited to attend a free grant information

forum June 17 to gain the background required to submit a strong grant proposal.

The event – hosted

by Surrey Foundation’s Welcoming and Inclusive Communities Project – will be held from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Eaglequest Golf Course, 152 Street and 77 Avenue.

The day will include a panel discussion, an update on the results of Surrey Foundation’s WIC research projects and information for potential Demonstration Project applicants about the types of projects Surrey Foundation is looking for.

It is with great pleasure that Peace Arch Dental Centre welcomes Dr. Michael Layton. Dr. Layton will be taking over as owner of the general dental practice of Dr. Joseph McIvor. As someone who grew up in White Rock,

and having practiced locally for the past three years, Dr. Layton is excited to proceed with his career and watch his family grow up in this community. He is also an avid basketball fan, coaching

for the YMCA 6/7 division for the past three years. “I’ve been involved in sports

for many years and have seen a lot of trauma to the face and teeth. I recommend an athletic mouthguard,” he remarks. Dr. Layton, who prefers

to be known as Michael, offers these services to all his patients, and hopes to prevent many of the dental issues that patients invariably will stumble upon. “The best dentistry is preventative dentistry. I believe prevention is the

way to go.”As a graduate of the University of

Washington, Dr. Layton will continue general preventative dental services to Dr. McIvor’s existing patients as well as expanded dental services including, orthodontics and implants. “We hope to continue to provide the type

of exceptional care that Dr. McIvor provided for close to 40 years in this area, along with welcoming the new generation to our beautiful community.”Dr. Layton is currently accepting new

patients, including children, and looks forward to providing excellent dental care, while having a little fun along the way.

lifestyles

In October of last year, the City of White Rock passed Bylaw 1864 banning the

use of pesticides for cosmetic purposes, with a few specific exceptions, identified permitted usage and also provided a helpful list of alternatives.

In May of this year, the City of Surrey followed suit with its Bylaw 17160, which bans use of pesticides on residential properties and city lands. There are some very specific exceptions, however.

No one with serious concern for environmental health will be worried, and those who want an immaculate garden can rely on a wide range of trusted and environmentally safe alternatives to the chemicals which have been so assiduously promoted.

Stretching strips of copper along the soil will stop slugs, since there’s an adverse chemical reaction between the slime on which they travel and copper. They’re easy to install, inexpensive and effective.

What more is needed?

Diatomaceous earth and ground-up egg shells form abrasive barriers which also

deter crawling pests.Old-fashioned

Bordeaux mixture (slaked lime, copper sulphate and water) is a good general protection against fungi. Other environmentally safe fungicides are a mixture of three tablespoons of vinegar with a small amount of molasses in four litres of water, or one tablespoon of baking soda plus one of vegetable oil in four

litres of water.Hand pulling will, obviously,

get rid of weeds, and hoeing to expose roots to sunlight and desiccation is less laborious though not quite so effective.

Boiling or extremely hot water is a reliable weed killer that is easy to apply, as is a mixture based on Epsom salts (magnesium sulphate).

There is quite a range of natural insecticides.

The bacterium bacillus thurigiensis has been in use since the 1920s without ill-effects;

non-toxic to vertebrates and many beneficial arthropods it is a broad spectrum insecticide but should be applied only by experienced operators.

Also quite effective are all the pyrethrin-based formulations. (Pyrethrin is the active component of pyrethrum which is secreted by several flowers in the chrysanthemum family.)

Neem oil acts against leaf-chewing insects while rotenone is another broad spectrum agent, and insecticidal soaps can be used against soft-bodied pests. Growing garlic alongside roses deters aphids, and alternating rows of onions with carrots will protect the latter against carrot fly.

This is far from an exhaustive list, but will be enough to show that banning artificial pesticides need not lead to failing gardens.

One other powerful defence is to keep plants in good health and growing vigorously – rich soil, appropriate watering and fertilizing to suit soil conditions and plant requirements.

Happy gardening!Dr. Roy Strang writes weekly

He and his wife, Maureen, have both served as directors, while Hoefle’s parents were clients of its day programs, participating in activities with other dependent seniors.

“Come Share, they’ve been the big thing in our life. It’s been a very rewarding thing to be a part of,” he said. “I just felt it was time for a break.”

Hoefle was persuaded by a friend to join the society shortly after retiring from his teaching career, the last 12 years of which he spent at White Rock Elementary. At the time, the board met in the basement of Evergreen Baptist Care Home.

In 1999, the society began leasing property at 15008 26 Ave., and received a provincial grant to build its present building there, Hoefle said.

Come Share eventually took over a local isolated seniors program and created Senior Support Services, which offers a range of resources, such as meal and visitor programs, support groups and referral services.

The society’s other mainstay is its day programs, where people like Hoefle’s parents have participated in carpet bowling.

Hoefle’s father, Eugene, began attending after developing mild dementia in his mid-80s.

“At first, dad was very fussy, but then he came to like it very much,” he said.

When Eugene died at age 92, Hoefle’s mother, Dora, used Come Share’s respite services, before going on to attend programs regularly.

“She enjoyed being with people; she would

teach them needlework.”While his parents experienced Come Share

from a client’s perspective, Hoefle worked behind the lines, attending meetings, and, a couple times, acting as chairperson.

The most significant – and recurring – obstacle he faced was funding.

One of the hardest situations he faced came last September, when Fraser Health axed

$161,820 in annual core funding to the society, resulting in the discontinuation of many Senior Support Services’ programs.

“It was very stressful; we thought we were going to lose (Senior Support Services),” he said, noting a number of the programs are still running. “We’ve managed to hang in there.”

While most of the staff were let go, Hoefle said many have returned as volunteers for a newly launched information and referral program.

The most rewarding part of working with Come Share, Hoefle said, was when he would walk through the

building and witness first-hand the difference its services were making.

“I’d get enjoyment out of seeing how people were being helped,” he said. “What I want to see is more people getting involved.”

He said new board members are currently needed at the society.

“It’s hard to describe how important it is. It’s very important to a community’s health to have people who need looking after, looked after.”

Come Share’s next annual general meeting will be held June 28. For details, contact Come Share executive director Sue McIntosh at 604-531-2502, local 4 or [email protected]

TheThe

ProfessionalsfessionalsOn The PeninsulaOn The Peninsula

When we eat food as a part of normal digestion, the food chewed is passed on via the food pipe or esophagus to the stomach for further digestion aided by the acidic juices present in the stomach. When these acidic juices flow back to the esophagus it causes a burning sensation in the centre of the chest, also called heartburn, leading to the phenomenon causing acid reflux.

Though we would think the main cause of acid reflux attack is what we eat and drink, the fact is a little different as it is also about how we eat and drink. This can be proved by the fact that many of us

being different individuals find it difficult to digest some food.

As we have mentioned earlier, its very dangerous to leave the acid reflux attack unchecked and without any treatment, hence identifying the acid reflux symptoms early is a must. Because in due course, this may result into erosion of esophageal lining called Barrett’s Esophagus which further leads to esophageal cancer. Though the acid reflux can be treated medically, it only masks the symptoms of acid reflux attack and not necessarily cures the disease. We need to find more natural methods of treating and curing this disease.

We use acupuncture and Chinese herb medicine effectively as a natural treatment method for treating acid reflux condition. By treating stress and adjusting stomach, liver and spleen, acupuncture can heal acid reflux attack very well.

Katarina Liao has more than 20 years experience in treating acid reflux by using acupuncture and Chinese herb in Canada and Europe.

arts & entertainment…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula

Alex BrowneArts Reporter

Kiel Magis is a young singer with a wide vocal range – and just as wide a range of material.

Both will be showcased at his concert this weekend at South Surrey’s Good Shepherd Church (May 30, 3 p.m., 2250 150 St.).

The 21-year-old classical voice major at Douglas College has been gifted with vocal chords that can traverse the registers from baritone to high tenor.

That comes in useful as a member of Star of the Sea parish’s Stella Maris Choir, directed by Trudy Stammer, and travelled with the choir on its tour of Germany last year. The choir will share the stage with him on Sunday, as well as the parish’s Schola Cantorum girls choir.

“This is my first solo concert – I’m very excited, but nervous at the same time,” Magis said.

“I’m trying not only to feature myself, but also some great guest performers.”

He added the lineup will also include 19-year-old local singer-songwriter Anna Boots (also a member of Stella Maris), acclaimed pianist-accompanist Trevor Hoffmann and 15-year-old violinist Emma Bazinet.

And the repertoire will include everything from Josh Groban originals (Remember When It Rained, Too Rare You Are, When You Say You Love Me and You Raise Me Up) to Andrews Lloyd Webber’s Pie Jesu (which he will sing with Boots) and pieces by early 20th century British art song writer Roger Quilter – even Moses Hogan’s

foot-stomping Every Time I Feel The Spirit, which Magis will perform with Stella Maris.

“If I had to describe my range I’d say the word is versatile,” Magis said.

“I’ve sung bass with Stella Maris, but in my head voice I can go pretty high and still have a pretty good quality of sound.”

But Magis – who was born in New Westminster, but spent most of his formative years in Richmond – said his focus is not simply his voice.

“The reason for me doing this concert is not to get popular, or get my message out, but because music is something that can brighten someone’s life. You can change someone’s life with one song – music can move mountains.”

Music more than made a difference to his own life, he said.

“It is my life.” Magis’ mother is also a gifted singer, and

through her church musical circles, he

was exposed to a wide range of sacred and secular music at a young age.

It gave him an understanding of the choral idiom and laid the foundation for his fondness for it, he said.

“Other music can’t compare with its richness and depth – it brings everyone together with one purpose.”

But he admits he was “a little bit rebellious” about music and choral singing when he reached St. Patrick’s Secondary.

That all changed when he joined school music director Tony Araujo’s chamber choir in Grade 12 – the same time he came to a realization of his own vocal gifts.

“Tony Araujo is the musician who pushed me to become what I am today,” he said, noting he is now singing with Araujo’s Corpus Christi College Chamber Choir and the Phoenix Chamber Choir.

It was also Araujo – who has frequently collaborated with Stammer on choral concerts – who steered Magis in the direction of the Stella Maris choir.

He said he’s looking forward to working with all the guests on the program, including Hoffmann, who in addition to being an excellent accompanist, will also feature one of his own compositions.

Where does Magis want to take his music professionally?

He’s not sure yet, he admits.“But I do believe music will be a part of

my life – and this concert will help decide that.”

Tickets are available at the door, and a portion of the proceeds will benefit the B.C. Diabetes Association.

The winning series of productions by Arne Larsen and

Cathy Wilmot for the Fraser Valley Gilbert & Sullivan Society continues with HMS Pinafore (Surrey Arts Centre studio theatre, until May 29).

Count yourself lucky if you have tickets for the remaining performances. The show, helmed by artistic director Rick Harmon with his usual eye for

comedic detail, is a delightful romp with a strong and assured

cast.Everything works

well in this version of W.S. Gilbert’s and Sir Arthur Sullivan’s sly classic, which mocks the British Navy of the 1870s as a haven for imperious bureaucrats and political appointees, and egalitarian notions which don’t seem too far removed from the ‘political correctness’ of

recent decades.

The deck of HMS Pinafore, at anchor in Spithead, is not the scene of valiant naval derring-do, but merely a location for flirtatious interludes and romantic misunderstandings.

Harmon and long-time choreographer/collaborator Carol Seitz have taken a singularly saucy tack with some of the stage business, which might upset some more staid purists, but seems in keeping with what we now know about Victorian society.

Throw in a reference to the

HST (a cheeky updating typical of the FVGSS) and the excellent enunciation of the cast – which succeeds in bringing out Gilbert’s witty libretto – and the enduringly humourous qualities of the operetta seem just as timely today.

But the most memorable aspect of this production is a slew of priceless performances by a crew of first-class comedy talents.

Alex BrowneArts Reporter

In the rarified world of jazz, musicians don’t always win praise for being “accessible”.

But it’s a tag that’s often been applied to Toronto pianist Nancy Walker, even though critics note that – however easy on the ears her jazz is – it doesn’t lack for advanced harmonies to sustain interest, and provoke excitement among listeners.

“I’ve heard the ‘accessible’ quote a lot,” said Walker, who will make a first Peninsula concert appear-ance with her quartet this Sat-urday, as part of the Commu-nity Arts Council’s East Meets West jazz series (May 29, 8 p.m., Royal Canadian Legion Crescent Branch 240, 2643 128 St.)

“What I like about it is that it implies that the music I play is able to reach people; that there’s a level of communication which, after all, is what music is all about. But by no means do I desire to dumb things down – I believe strongly there’s no need to dumb things down for people.”

The pianist counts herself as a devotee of John Coltrane, and what she describes as the “usual suspects” – legendary and influ-ential keyboard players of the class of Herbie Hancock, Oscar Peterson and McCoy Tyner.

But she’s also appreciative of recent innovators on the instru-ment such as Brad Mehldau, Myra Melford and Jason Moran.

For her own part, Walker’s play-ing has been praised for “intellec-tualism, lyricism and heart” and for an approach that is strongly rhythmic and harmonic.

She’s been nominated for a Juno, and won the National Jazz Awards keyboardist of the year honours in 2008 and the Mon-treal Jazz Festival’s Grand Prix de Jazz in 2003.

Much of her playlist consists of original material, Walker says, but that leaves plenty of room for covers of songs that inspire her.

“I know that some people love the standard repertoire,” she said. “Not that I’ll necessarily be doing it in a standard way.”

In working with her quartet – which for the local concert,

and subsequent appearance at the Vancouver International Jazz Festival, will include long-time sidemen Ted Quinlan (guitar) and Kieran Overs (bass) plus well-respected Lower Mainland drummer Jesse Cahill – Walker said she likes “a good degree of freedom and looseness.”

“But at the same time I wouldn’t feel right about not knowing what we’re going to play,” she said, noting there may still be an occasional deviation from the set list.

But she appreciates a free inter-play with sidemen, she said.

“As far as improvising is con-cerned, there is no limit – or as to how long a song is, or who’s going to solo, or whether we’re trading fours with the drummer. I leave that in the moment.”

Curiously, for someone whose work is so rooted in the keyboard now, Walker’s chosen instrument through her high school years – the time she credits with turning her on to jazz – was trumpet.

“Just at the time I left high school and was going to college I had chop problems that made me wonder whether it was really the instrument for me,” she said.

“I switched my major to piano. I still love the sound... I really admire anyone who plays the trumpet. It’s a real tough, chal-lenging instrument.”

Admiralty, balancing the pomposity of the character with a suggestion that Sir Joseph’s ship-board interests may not be confined simply to his pursuit of elusive Captain’s daughter Josephine.

Equally impressive is Reginald Pillay’s shuffling, lop-sided and contemptuous Dick Deadeye, mischief-making pariah of the Pinafore. His expressions and reactions alone threaten to steal every scene he’s in; his vocal characterization is spot-on, and the way he and other cast members play off each other is a delight.

Adding immeasurably to the show is co-producer Wilmot’s thoroughly professional, beautifully sung and consummately comedic turn as Little Buttercup, who nurses a crush on Captain Corcoran, and has a dark, plot-resolving secret to reveal.

This performance is Exhibit A to support the contention that Wilmot, frequently, if effectively, behind the scenes, deserves to be in the spotlight more often.

As Corcoran, Dane Szohner cuts a fine figure in Captain’s frock coat, and demonstrates that he, too, is no slouch in the comedic-timing department.

Real-life spouses

and operatic talents Debra Da Vaughn and Christopher Simmons once again contribute excellent singing and acting as romantic leads, this time as Josephine and Ralph Rackstraw, whose budding romance is frustrated by social status.

Da Vaughn combines a genuineness of emotion with indisputable vocal quality, while Simmons, clearly aware of the absurdity of Ralph’s character, plays it admirably straight.

Laura Luongo is effectively flirtatious as Cousin Hebe; while Matt Hume as Bill Bobstay, and James Hussen as Bob Becket both have their moments to shine, particularly in a very musical a cappella trio with Simmons on A British Tar.

The show features a somewhat smaller than usual dual chorus of tars and female relatives, but the groups are tight, tuneful and dance well to Seitz’ always-effective choreography, and

make the most of the comedy business they have been given.

Also effective is Tim Driscoll’s angled, but authentic-looking ship set, Mike Balser’s lighting design, and the costumes by Mari Anne Hussen and Leigh Burton.

Pianist/musical director Vashti Fairbairn once again demonstrates her skill in getting a full, idiomatic sound from a six-piece group, undeniably helped by the high calibre of her orchestra-mates.

sports…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula

Nick GreenizanSports Reporter

When Semiahmoo Secondary’s senior golf team lines up to tee off next week at B.C. High School

Golf Championships in Salmon Arm, it may seem like the setup to a joke.

As in, what do you you get when you cross three sisters – two of them twins – one American, and one six-foot-six hockey player, and top it off with a teacher who has spent most of his life playing and coaching volleyball?

It’s no joke, of course, and the Semiahmoo Totems hope the combination is as good

as gold at Shuswap Lake Estates Golf and Country Club, where the province’s top high school golfers will tee off Monday.

“It’s quite a mix we have here – very diverse, and young, too,” said Semiahmoo coach Mike Sapic, a former volleyball coach who also played the game professionally.

“I don’t think I’d call us favourites (at provincials) but we’ve been pretty strong all season, and we certainly have the ability to post a low score... I think they have a real chance to get a medal.”

The Totems’ five-person team consists of the Chua sisters – Grace, in Grade 9, and Grade 11 twins Cheryl and Cherie – Kevin Jung, who recently moved to the Peninsula from Pennsylvania, and Grade 11 Colin Hargrove, a six-foot-six hockey player with Semiahmoo Minor Hockey’s midget A2 squad.

Jung, in Grade 10, spent most of the

golf season playing on Semi’s junior squad, but was called up to the older team when Brennan Lucas suffered an injury, while Hargrove is the lone holdover from the Totem squad that finished 10th at provincials two years ago. In that tournament, held in Chilliwack, the then-

Grade 9 Hargrove finished second in the longest-drive contest.

This year, the Totems are confident they can make a run at a podium finish – after all, they escaped the Surrey zone, which Sapic said is a challenge in itself.

“Only four teams out of 12 make it

through Surrey, and there were a lot of good teams out there,” he said.

“Earl Marriott was a really talented team, and when we advanced past them, I think that’s when the team realized that they had a chance.”

In high school tournaments, the team’s overall score is calculated by taking the top four of five individual scores, which means on any given day, only one player per team can afford to have a bad round.

Sapic said his squad’s success is largely a result of consistency, a claim backed up by his players, all of whom play on the local junior tours and have university golf aspirations.

“You really just have to put all the negative thoughts out of your head,” said Jung. “If you have a bad shot, you just have to forget it right away.”

Hargrove said it’s easy to stay calm out on the course with the knowledge that your teammates are going to play well.

“It really helps to know that you’ve got some backup out there, in case you miss a shot or aren’t playing well,” Hargrove said.

In the two-round provincials, Sapic figures Totems will need to average at, or preferably below, a score of 80 per round, per golfer. At Surrey Championships, the team averaged 78.5.

The two lowest scores of the season came from Grace and Cheryl, who have each carded rounds of 75 this season.

Regardless of what happens at provincials, all five will be back to make a run at a B.C. title again next season – and hopefully impress a few college scouts along the way.

“(The Chua’s) dad always jokes with me that all this golf is costing him a fortune, but I just tell him not to worry about it – that he’ll make all his money back on scholarships,” Sapic laughed.

Brian Giebelhaus photo Semiahmoo siblings Grace, Cherie and Cheryl Chua are aiming to help the Totems earn a podium spot at high school golf provincials next week.

Nick GreenizanSports Reporter

The White Rock Tritons’ losing streak reached six games after the B.C. Premier Baseball League team went winless on the long weekend, and then dropped a 10-2 decision Tuesday to the North Delta Blue Jays.

The local squad began the weekend with a pair of losses Saturday to the second-place Langley Blaze – by 10-0 and 11-2 scores – before bowing to the Fraser Valley Chiefs in a doubleheader the following day, 5-1 and 10-2.

The losses sank White Rock to last place in the 13-team circuit, with a 5-20 win-loss record.

In the first game Saturday, White Rock batters were stymied by an old teammate. Blaze pitcher, and former Triton, Milan Mantle allowed just three hits – all singles – over six innings, while striking out eight.

In the second game, the Tritons managed four hits, compared

to Langley’s 12, but struggled in the field with four errors.

In Sunday’s opener, the Tritons and Chiefs played a scoreless game until the fifth frame, when the Chiefs exploded for four runs – on three Triton errors – and then added six more runs in the sixth.

The second game was closer – the only one of five games last week decided by less than eight runs – but the Tritons couldn’t overcome an early Fraser Valley lead; the Chiefs had a 4-0 advantage after two innings.

Josh Sigurdson had two of the Tritons’ three hits, including a double. He’s hitting .384 on the season.

In Tuesday’s loss to the Jays, White Rock was again sloppy on defence, making five errors, and they managed just five hits on offence – two of which came off the bat of Blaine, Wash. native Tanner Weaver, playing his first game of the season.

The Tritons have the weekend off, and return to the field Tuesday for a game at Nat Bailey Stadium against the Vancouver Cannons.

TotemsadvanceNick GreenizanSports Reporter

The Semiahmoo Totems advanced to the round of eight at B.C. High School AAA Girls Rugby Championships with a first round 15-5 win over Lord Tweedsmuir Wednesday, while Earl Marriott nearly pulled off a big upset.

The No. 4 seed Totems advanced thanks in large part to their athleticism, according to head coach Frank Ellestad.

“The key with us was we just had to get running out there.”

Joyce Kendon, Shasta Ishikawa and Madi Donald had tries for the Totems.

12th-seeded EMS was sent to the consolation bracket after a 17-12 loss to Courtenay’s G.P. Vanier Towhees – they can now finish no better than ninth – but came close to knocking off the third-seeded squad from the Island.

“We were leading right up until the last six minutes,” said EMS coach Joanna McLennan. “But they just outplayed us at the end. They had fresh legs on the field and we just got tired and couldn’t hold on.”

Sylvie Mullen had both EMS tries, while Paige Smith added a conversion.

The tournament wraps up with finals on Saturday at South Surrey Athletic Park.

7 OBITUARIES

PARKER, Denis, October 1914 - May 2010. With sorrow, we announce the passing of Denis at Peace Arch Hospital. Survived by his wife Hazel; sister Mildred and many niec-es and nephews. Denis had a keen appreciation of music, particularly brass bands and orchestral. As an avid golfer and as a fi sherman, Denis found ample scope to enjoy BC. One time President of the Mann Park Lawn Bowling Club; active member of the Kiwanis Club, with special in-terest in low-cost housing; and later an active volunteer of the White Rock Branch of the Canadian Cancer Society. By nature, Denis was a reserved person, never seeking promi-nence. If anything, he would prefer to be regarded as being one who served as he at-tempted to live out the ethics of the Christian faith. A Memo-rial Service to celebrate Denis’ life will be held Monday, May 31st at 2:00 pm at Mount Olive Lutheran Church, 2350-148th Street, Surrey, BC. Please make a donation in Denis’ name to the Canadian Cancer Society - White Rock Branch, #104-15240 Thrift Avenue, White Rock, BC, V4B 2L1.
