Finally, your vote can count To the editor; Every election cycle I am repulsed by the level of disaffection many Canadians have for our democracy. They generally say something like, “My vote doesn’t mean crap. Voting is pointless and stupid. We have no real influence.” What makes me most disgusted about such statements is the fact that in many electoral ridings across Canada, the people who say such things are right. Yes, votes are wasted and tossed into the trash can in Canada. Often, thanks to our First Past the Post (FPTP) electoral system, people who think their vote is meaningless are correct. Now most fans of the Conservative party are fine with the status quo. They have a big tent party that helps them win control of the House of Commons with a disproportionately low amount of popular support thanks to FPTP. With less than half of the support of the Canadian people, the Cons can currently do whatever they like in Ottawa. Is that fair
From the trenches It’s raining as I pull around the corner to the works yard, a typical grey, wet Surrey morning.

or democratic? Does that reflect the will of the electorate? Proportional representation could work for Canada as well as it works for the majority of healthy democracies in the world. The Green Party has made impressive strides with respect to popular support over the last few years, despite decades of lagging behind without any seats in the House of Commons. However, with regionally diffuse support at such low levels, the Greens can’t hope for more than a tiny handful of seats after the next election. But, and this is a big but, if Greens thought more carefully about long term strategy, they would see their best tactical move: support the NDP just for this one and only election and get the system they need to go from struggling for two or three seats to realistically having the ability to acquire more like 20-30 seats. If you support the Libertarian party, the Pirate party, the Christian Heritage party, older parties like Social Credit, or independent candidates for that matter – individuals who could easily win with strong support in

a riding so long as the proportional representation system adopted ensured regional representation – the NDP in this election has the potential to galvanize the Canadian voting public and fundamentally level the playing field. We have the chance to let our voices truly be heard. We could finally have every vote count in an election where the parties that best represent our interests get law changing influence based on the number of people who vote for that party. Many people dislike the NDP, but the fact that they have promised to change our electoral system is reason enough for people across the political spectrum to support them for just this one time. It’s worth the gamble. Our country’s democracy is at stake, and that is why I support the NDP and my candidate Rebecca Smith this October. Randolph Lockhart Langley
To the editor
workers’ shoes, or in this case, boots. I know the concrete crew he’s going out with. It’s back-heavy labour and they won’t cut him any slack. Vince never asks for any. He wants to be able to relate with everyone on their terms, a very refreshing view from the new management in many areas of the city. Kudos for this delib-
erate choice in direction. With all the negative incidents and focus on manager/ employee relationships lately, I thought it would be nice to hear of a positive one instead. This isn’t a manager love fest. Vince is an adamant Montreal Canadiens fan, so there’s that. J. Fell Surrey

Contributed ith the recent legalization of marijuana in Washington and Oregon, and with the confusion and inconsistencies around marijuana dispensaries in this province, we are young citizens who have many questions about where our community is headed in regard to marijuana. Should Canada move from legalization of medical marijuana to an inclusive legalization for recreational use? Arrests for marijuana possession in this province have been increasing – although the number of arrests depends on the region of the province where people reside. As criminology students at Kwantlen who hope to enter a career in law enforcement in the not too distant future, we have been looking at health and legal issues around recreational marijuana in the Lower Mainland for a writing course we have taken with Dr. Sue Ann Cairns.
W
Points of view
We do not use marijuana, and thus we have no vested interest in whether or not marijuana is legalized. However, we do hope that when we are enforcing laws in our community, that the laws are consistent and make sense.
Should Canada move from legalization of medical marijuana to an inclusive legalization for recreational use? As citizens of this province, and concerned citizens in the community of Surrey, we are concerned about the amount of police time and costs associated with enforcement of our current laws regarding possession of marijuana. We have discovered both pros and cons regarding legalization of recreational marijuana. The cons include the following points: • Possible gateway drug to other forms of more
dangerous drugs such as cocaine • Health risks, especially for adolescents whose brains are still developing • Impairments in judgement and memory while under the influence • Likelihood that legalization will not be a cure-all for the illegal marijuana trade The pros include these points: • Reduction of black market • Economic benefits associated with taxation and licensing • Cost savings for courts and police time • Potential reduction of illegal supply in black market • Economic benefits associated with taxation and licensing Recognizing that there will be a strong need to think this issue through carefully, we believe that it is high time that we have more public dialogue around this question.

By Sheila Reynolds A new French immersion (FI) program that was to start at Surrey’s Cougar Creek Elementary this week has been cancelled before it could begin. Surrey School District officials announced in late August that the program was in peril due to low enrolment – just eight kids were signed up to start the kindergarten language program. Early last week, that number had risen to 12. But that’s where enrolment stalled, forcing the district to halt the program as it fell far short of the 22 students preferable for a full class. Even with 18 or 20, the class may have proceeded, said Surrey Board of Education chair Shawn Wilson, who was shocked at the low interest in the new FI location.

“I would’ve expected there would be a full takeup of that program,” he said. “To ask the questions and go to the public… and include it in a facilities plan and open it and not have anyone commit to it was a disappointment.” In June, after years of parents lobbying for better access to FI, the school district found available space at the Newton area elementary school and gave the go-ahead to open a new program there. Cougar Creek would have been the seventh elementary school in Surrey to host an early French program. Every year, dozens of children are put on waitings lists as the demand far outweighs the number of student spaces available for FI. From spring to midAugust, parents of the 229 families on the waiting list were contacted and offered a spot at Cougar Creek. Most, said the district, indicated they didn’t want to drive to the school, located at 12236 70A Ave. Generally, the waiting lists are significantly longer at the South Surrey schools that offer French immersion. But Wilson said the program has to be offered in all areas of the city. “We have to establish these things in a fair and equitable way,” he said. “We’re responsible for responding to the public’s demands and then we do and no one responds.” - with files from Kevin Diakiw/Black Press

New school curriculum to emphasize hands on learning By Tom Fletcher The new school year in B.C. is the start of a three-year transition to a new curriculum that Education Minister Mike Bernier says will emphasize “hands-on� learning. The new curriculum is being phased in this year for Kindergarten to Grade 9, with higher grades still in development. Bernier said this year it will be up to local school districts and teachers to begin implementing it before it becomes mandatory in 2015-16. Bernier, the Peace River South MLA appointed education minister this summer, said he’s heard from teachers who are looking forward to a curriculum that allows more flexibility and individual learning. He stressed that basic skills of reading, writing and arithmetic will remain, but students will also be taught life skills, communication, col-
laboration and critical thinking. Two areas of emphasis for the new curriculum are environmental education and an aboriginal perspective, which Bernier said will be present in “every single component in the curriculum.� Local schools are encouraged to work with aboriginal communities across the province to represent the full diversity of aboriginal experience, he said. Hands-on learning is already in place in schools, and Bernier used the example of a shop teacher in his home town of Dawson Creek who encouraged students at risk of dropping out to take his course. They learned mathematics and physics through taking motors apart and reassembling them, he said. Bernier invited parents to look for themselves at grade-bygrade documents posted at curriculum.gov.
bc.ca, listing learning standards and areas of emphasis. In the science curriculum, for example, students are to be taught “big ideas� that in Grade 1 include “observable patterns and cycles occur in the local sky and landscape.� By Grade 8, they are to learn that “Earth and its climate have changed over geological time.� Science competencies required by Grade 7 include the ability to “exercise a healthy, in-
formed skepticism and use scientific knowledge and findings for their own investigations to evaluate claims in secondary sourcesâ€? such as media reports. By that time they should be able to identify possible sources of error in their investigations, understand qualitative and quantitative evidence and “demonstrate an an awareness of assumptions ‌ and bias in their own work and secondary sources.â€?

Surrey Food Bank hit hard by wind storm Glitch left warehouse without power, highlights need for generator By Boaz Joseph No refrigeration, no lights, no phones, no access to the volunteer database. Marilyn Herrmann was “frustrated as all hell” after the Surrey Food Bank (SFB) lost power in the Aug. 29 wind storm. Interviewed early last week over the phone at her home – where she was charging her cellphone – the executive director of the SFB said the North Surrey charity took a big hit after a tree next door took out a power pole on SFB property. Even after the pole was replaced by BC Hydro two nights later, the lines weren’t installed properly and just dangled on cars in the parking lot. The warehouse was dark for nearly four long days. Power was back up at 11:15 a.m. last Wednesday, said Herrmann, who added that BC Hydro told her to bring in an electrician the night before to correct a specific problem. “They said it was a complicated fix.” “Staff are tired, but they’re whipping around doing what they have to do.” She was under extra pressure knowing that the gates had to be unlocked in case Hydro crews came at a time when the food bank was closed to complete the repairs. By last Tuesday, staff and volunteers were

forced to throw away more than $2,000 worth of eggs, dairy products and other perishable foods. Volunteer activity in the unlit warehouse has been kept to a minimum, and 165 clients who came in early last week were given the most basic of nonperishable foods. No one has been turned away yet. “What we can get to, we’re giving.” She said one man who came for help last week was among dozens of new clients who lost their perishables at home when their power went out. On top of the spoiled food he had to replace, the man, a former food bank client, also had to
take care of his young son during the day because their daycare centre across the street also lost power. The SFB serves 14,000 clients each month (including a Cloverdale depot that’s open twice a month) and has made extra effort to provide more nutritious food in recent years. Herrmann says a lesson has been learned from the experience – at the very least, she’ll look into buying a generator. “We as an organization need to be better prepared for these things,” she says. “We are an essential service. We can’t do this again.” Herrmann said that

the coolers needed a couple of days to be ready for perishable goods – if they put food in them sooner, it would take longer for them to cool down. The SFB asked donors to not bring in any perishable goods until early this week, because perishables brought in on Friday would be unused until Monday anyway. Non-perishable goods are welcome at any time – as are online and cash donations to make up for the perishable losses during the power outage. Herrmann said three large corporate donations were offered, and the Overwaitea Food Group is coordinating to replenish SFB stocks. “That’s wonderful,” she said. “(There’s) wonderful community support again.”

Retired rescuer makes the move to Cloverdale CONTRIBUTED PHOTO
One of Surrey’s newest heritage attractions, the B.C. Vintage Truck Museum, has recently been gifted a vintage 1955 Chevrolet fire truck from the City of Hope. Members of the volunteer society that operates the museum, the Surrey Heritage Society, hope to have the new vehicle decorated for the Surrey Santa Parade, which is tentatively scheduled for Dec. 6 in Cloverdale. The museum, open Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., is the focus of a fundraiser on Sunday, Sept. 20. For fundraiser information, see the listing in this week’s Clover Valley Community Calendar.
Directors wanted Are you interested in trying your hand at directing but don’t want to bite off a whole play? The Surrey Little Theatre has the perfect proposal for newbies. The Clayton-based community theatre troupe is looking for a willing volunteer to step in to fill the fourth and final director’s spot for its upcoming comedy, Funny Little Thing Called Love. The full length play consists of several scenes that are each a play on their own – all connected by the common elements of a full moon and love. Awardwinning director Helen Embury will mentor four new directors as part of the production, taking the stage in early 2016. Three out of four first-time directors for the production are already in place. Production
manager Brigitte Seib says she’s pleased to welcome Langley’s Ken Boyd, Patricia Braun of Abbotsford and Surrey’s Brad Duncan to the team. “All three are talented, awardwinning actors that I’ve worked with in the past and I’m very excited that they have come aboard in this capacity,” Seib said. Interested candidates can contact Seib by email at brigitte.seib@surreylittletheatre.com for consideration. Submissions accepted until midnight Sept. 9 (tonight). Mentors are also being put into place for the design team, hair and makeup, and stage management, making this a great season for newcomers to get involved.
Tonight is also the Surrey Little Theatre’s Annual General Meeting, being held at the Surrey Little Theatre, 7027 184 Street, 7:30 p.m. Meet new members and socialize starting at 6 p.m. Surrey Little Theatre’s 20152016 season kicks off with Calendar Girls, written by Tim Firth and directed by Simon Challenger (Oct. 22-Nov. 21), Funny Little Thing Called Love, by Jesse Jones, Nicholas Hope and Jamie Wooten (Jan. 28 to Feb. 27, 2016), and The Last Lifeboat, written by Luke Yankee and directed by Dale Kelly (April 14 to May 14).
