REFERENDUM

Doomed from the start? Mayors were quickly on defensive By Jeff Nagel Many observers and some mayors predicted the referendum was doomed from the start. But Metro Vancouver mayors – forced into a box created by Premier Christy Clark – opted to proceed in the hopes that they could pull out a surprise win, just as the premier had a year earlier. They did succeed in hammering out a detailed transit expansion plan a year ago in a tight time frame laid down by the province. The only mayor opposing it then was Burnaby’s Derek Corrigan, who called the $7.5-billion package too ambitious and predicted failure. Haggling continued over what funding source to propose until after the 2014 municipal elections. When mayors settled on the sales tax hike in December, two more mayors from West Vancouver and Maple Ridge voted against proceeding. Lack of sufficient control over TransLink ‘The whole thing by the mayors was a major objection for the was a waste.’ holdouts. While the Yes side - Gordon Price, SFU City Program didn’t have complete consensus of mayors director out of the gate, it did have a huge and growing coalition that united disparate groups from business leaders to environmentalists. But despite the big tent of supporters – more than 140 groups ultimately signed on to the coalition – confusion and strategic errors ensued. Observers say the lack of time available to prepare voters for the campaign was a major cause of the defeat. See HEPNER / Page 9

Metro voters reject sales tax hike for transit plan Referendum defeated by 69 per cent in Surrey, mayors search for plan B By Jeff Nagel The finger pointing has resumed between the province and Metro Vancouver mayors after voters resoundingly defeated a proposal to charge a 0.5 per cent sales tax in the region to fund transit and transportation. The proposed tax that would have funded $7.5 billion in upgrades over 10 years was rejected with 61.7 per cent of voters saying No and 38.3 per cent saying Yes. The Yes side lost in every major city of the region – even in Vancouver where it

got 49.1 per cent – and only won in sparsely populated areas like Belcarra and Bowen Island in the mail-in plebiscite conducted over 10 weeks. The No vote was strongest at 75 per cent or more in areas like Maple Ridge and Langley Township. Elections BC received more than 798,000 ballots – 51 per cent of all registered voters – but more than 38,000 ballots were rejected. The defeat leaves the region without $250 million a year in new revenue the tax would have brought to expand transit.

Surrey and Vancouver are expected to try to cobble together their own plan B strategies to build light rail in Surrey and a SkyTrain extension west along Broadway. But the region will be without the funding required for a broad 25 per cent bus service lift, including many more frequent express bus routes that had been in the mayors’ plan, nor will there be money for increased SkyTrain, HandyDart, night bus or SeaBus service that was to have swiftly kicked in after a Yes vote.

Outdoor movies to roll all summer long Sing-along Frozen, The Lego Movie and Finding Nemo are on the bill By Jennifer Lang A sing-along under the stars to Disney’s animated musical, Frozen, is sure to be a highlight for movie-goers in Cloverdale, where free outdoor movies are screening every weekend this summer. The 2013 animated feature about a princess (Elsa) and her sister (Anna) was very loosely based on Hans Christian Anderson’s The Snow Queen, and gently subverts the usual fairytale conventions. It’s stacked with songs, including Oscar winner ‘Let it Go,’ a soaring little number that’s become the pop

aria of choice for a generation of self-actualizing young fans. The Friday Movie Nights in Cloverdale series gets underway with The Muppet Show June 10 at Don Christian Park, and the series continues every Friday night to Aug. 28, alternating between Don Christian Park (6220 184 Street) and Katzie Elementary (6887 194A Street). Next up on July 17 is Home (Katzie), followed by the Frozen Sing-Along on July 24 (Don Christian). The Lego Movie is July 31 (Kaztie), with Big Hero 6 on Aug. 7 (Don Christian), Willy

Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (starring Johnny Depp) on Aug. 14 (Katzie), Monsters University on Aug. 21 (Don Christian), and Finding Nemo on Aug. 28 (Katzie). Live entertainment and family games start at 7:30 p.m., with the free movie rolling at dusk. Four of the films are sponsored by G&F Financial Group, and the series is presented by the City of Surrey. In case of rain, visit Clayton Youth Services Facebook page for updates or call the Don Christian Recreation centre at 604-502-6402.

The animated Disney blockbuster Frozen is one of eight free movies playing on Friday nights.

Critter Care hosts wild and woolly open house By Monique Tamminga From a baby porcupine to marmots and mink, this year’s open houses at Critter Care wildlife rehabilitation centre is going to be wild and woolly. “This has been an absolutely crazy year, very busy with so many animals,” said Critter Care founder Gail Martin. “This heat has been hard on all the animals and the volunteers and staff, too.” Critter Care released nine bears back to the wild on June 24. They still have six in their care, including the two cubs that arrived small

This year, the twoday open house takes place on Saturday, July 11 and Sunday, July 12 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Along with plenty of entertainment, food and tours to see the animals, animal rescuer Norm Snihur will be there along with his two-seater helicopter. “Norm picks up wildlife for us all over the province and brings them to us,” said

Critter Care is in great need of toilet paper, tissues, garbage bags, cleaning products, towels, receiving blankets and even kiddy pools to cool the animals. There is plenty of parking. Tours should be booked upon entry. Critter Care is at 481 216 St. in Campbell Valley Park.

To the editor

A sample of the reaction to last Thursday’s transit tax referendum results from our Facebook followers:

Run it right This wasn’t a vote about the transit system, it was a vote about who runs it. When the current funding is so blatantly wasted, you can’t expect people to hand over more. Clean it up, run it right, and the

funding will follow. – Canadians Internet Business

Wasted effort Surrey could have saved itself $250,000 and put it toward police officers and actually helping communities rather than this wasted effort. – Niamh Kavanagh

Poor salesmanship Yes = $ 6.1 million to try to extol the virtues of more taxes for a wasteful bureaucracy. No = $40,000. That kind of sums it up right there. A good plan will sell itself, which this clearly was not. – Dale Harrison – Find us on Facebook at Facebook.com/CloveraleReporter

Carelessness prompts Surrey fire alert By Jennifer Lang Surrey residents are being urged to be extra careful with smoking materials and any barbecuing they might be attempting. Late Sunday afternoon, a fire advisory was issued in the city due to the large volume of calls related to smoke in Surrey from to wildfires elsewhere in the province – and because of the sheer number of calls to the Surrey Fire Service. By 5 p.m., they’d responded to 60 calls in 12 hours, reflecting a marked increase in grass fires, bark mulch fires and fires in boulevards along roadways as a result of the hot, dry weather and the careless disposal of smoking material, the alert said. Additionally, residents calling to report a fire are asked to ensure they can provide a location of the fire source or where the smoke originates. Hot sunny conditions are expected to continue for the rest of the week. The alert says

residents are further urged to maintain their diligence in handling and disposing of cigarettes and smoking materials. A complete ban on open flames is in effect in all City of Surrey parks, trails and open areas. People should use extreme caution when using smoking materials on grass or ground covers in parks and public spaces, the advisory added.

Smoke chokes region An air quality advisory issued Sunday afternoon for Metro Vancouver is continuing and has been extended to the Fraser Valley as a result of smoke blowing into the region from wildfires raging across B.C. Metro Vancouver air quality planner Geoff Doerksen said fine particulate concentrations from the smoke have hit levels never seen before across the entire Lower Mainland. “Seeing these heavy smoke levels mix

down to the ground is unprecedented for our region,” he said. The air quality objective for fine particulate is 25 micrograms per cubic metre measured as a 24-hour rolling average. Readings four times that level – 100 micrograms or higher – were recorded Monday morning at stations in North Vancouver, Burnaby and Vancouver, where the highest reading of 121.6 was at Sunny Hill Health Centre for Children. Other areas with particulate levels double to triple the objective included Surrey at 81.7, Langley at 67.2, Abbotsford at 66.2 and Chilliwack at 50. Hope was less smoky at 10. “We’ve never seen this before,” Doerksen said. “We’re exceeding our fine particulate objectives at all of our stations in Metro Vancouver as well as our Fraser Valley stations.” There’s no single fire to blame for the smoke. Significant amounts of smoke are coming into the Lower Mainland from fires burn-

The things we do for love By Moinque Tamminga Pull up a lawn chair, spread a blanket out on the grass and plan to take in some amazing theatre this summer. Bard in the Valley returns to its comedy roots, after a tragic turn with Julius Caesar. Langley’s outdoor Shakespeare theatre company will present Love’s Labour’s Lost, a look at the ridiculousness of love. Bard in the Valley’s 60-plus cast and crew will be on three outdoor stages this summer, starting with last week’s appearances n the lawn in front of Fort Langley’s Historic Community Hall and continuing for 13 more performances to Aug. 2. The play is produced by BIV president, Diane Gendron, while Mandy Dyck is making her directorial debut. Dyck, who had major roles both on and off stage in the last two BIV productions, has her bachelor’s degree in theatre from the University of the Fraser Valley and is teaching in the Surrey school district. “Love’s Labour’s Lost has intrigued me since the first time I read the script,” said Dyck. “In this play, Shakespeare was writing beyond his time and speaking to a more modern audience. With the women being in control, I could not help but want to direct it. “Take one part men being silly, one part women being ruthless, and one part complete ridiculousness and you get Love’s Labour’s Lost — a tale of love, courtship, loss and all the games that come with it. “There are times in our lives when we have all done crazy things for love; do we blame ourselves or the mischievous cupid?” Dyck knew from the beginning that she wanted to make this play in the style of a Broadway musical. “What that means is that the movement is somewhat lyrical in places, and the acting can be a little dramatic or over-the-top,” said Dyck. “This works well for the supporting characters, like Don Adriano de Armado, who is described as a ‘fantastical Spaniard’. It gives the actor Luke Stevens something that he can play with and a style that doesn’t limit him

Premier forced plebiscite on new tax ‘METRO VOTERS’ from front

ulation grows and demand pressures intensify on a frozen transit system, spurring more transit users to drive instead. No campaign head Jordan Bateman of the Canadian Taxpayers Federation exploited many voters’ unwillingness to pay more – especially to TransLink – and argued more money could be found if cities restrained their own spending

and tax growth. He successfully framed the campaign as a vote on TransLink, which he accused of mismanagement and which had come off major SkyTrain breakdowns and a failure to fully launch its new Compass card payment system on time. Bateman called the result a “tremendous victory for taxpayers” and said the No win was achieved on a shoestring against heavy odds. “They had big business, big government, big labour, big envi-

ronment and big money. But they didn’t have the people.” He called for a core review of TransLink to seek more savings. Mayors never wanted the referendum and repeatedly said something as crucial to the region as transit expansion should not go to a public vote. They had previously wrung a pledge from former Premier Gordon Campbell to allow a new transit revenue source. But Premier Christy Clark reneged and promised in the 2013 provincial election any new tax source for TransLink would have to be approved by local voters. Left with only that path to new funding, mayors agreed last year to the plebiscite and chose a hike in the provincial sales tax from 7.0 to 7.5 per cent within Metro, rather than other options, such as a vehicle levy. With the sales tax rejected, mayors could still raise TransLink property taxes, which is an existing source. That option has been repeatedly suggested by the premier and was touted again Thursday by Transportation Minister Todd Stone as a solution the mayors could deliver “tomorrow.” But Vancouver Mayor Gregor Robertson, chair of the mayors’ council, insisted property tax in not an option. Instead mayors are threatening to pull out of the TransLink governance structure – effectively leaving all decisions and responsibility to the province – unless the Clark government reforms TransLink and finds a funding solution in the next six months. “TransLink is their creation,” Robertson said. “The ball’s back in the province’s court for next steps.” Coquitlam Mayor Richard Stewart said the key priority now is to “fix TransLink.” Stone said he will work with mayors to explore new solutions, without issuing “ultimatums.” He said the province remains committed to covering one-third of the cost of new rapid transit lines and the new Pattullo Bridge, which would leave one-third to be raised by the region after a matching contribution from Ottawa.

Mayors Linda Hepner, Greg Moore and Gregor Robertson at a press conference July 2. With a sales tax rejected, they could still raise TransLink property taxes – or pull out of its governance structure, leaving decisions up to the province.

“Doing nothing simply is not an option,” Stone said, adding some other funding source will be required and will have to come from the region to cover its third of the costs.

Fraser Line potentially delayed further Stone also suggested the mayors repriorize the projects in their plan, potentially delaying the Fraser Highway line through Cloverdale even longer than the 12 years set out in the plan. If mayors hold firm to the need for a new source, it’s unclear how that can happen without a new referendum the premier has said can’t be held before the next municipal elections in 2018. Bateman said he will urge Clark to recommit in the 2017 provincial election to an ongoing plebicite requirement for new TransLink taxes. In the meantime, observers predict some cities will consider freezing much new development in areas that planners had assumed would be served by better transit in the future. Any clampdown on new home construction could drive real estate prices higher. One project TransLink is still expected to pursue is the $1-billion replacement of the Pattullo Bridge, to be funded through tolls.

ning at 7:00pm | De

Mayors also intend to pursue some system of road pricing and Stone has signalled tolling reform will be required if the Pattullo and future Massey Tunnel replacement are both tolled, leaving only one remaining free crossing of the Fraser River. Further reforms are possible at TransLink, Stone said, beyond a new CEO and move to open board meetings, which he also hoped would improve accountability. SFU City Program director Gordon Price said the TransLink board of directors should submit to a reconfirmation of their seats by the mayors’ council. He said the result relegates the region to living with “a second rate transportation system” that will have profound implications for the development of Metro Vancouver. Price also said it raises the threat that future decisions will be made, not on the basis of an overarching plan rooted in good planning, but on politics as cities are pitted against each other in a project-byproject battle for scarce dollars. “Politically, it may be better for the province not to have to commit itself to large scale, sustainable ongoing funding, but to be able to pick and choose those projects it believes are best for the region, but also politically advantageous and affordable.” – Black Press

Hepner promised light rail no matter what ‘DOOMED’ From front

U.S. jurisdictions where new transit tax measures won voter approval had years to lay the groundwork. Crucial weeks were lost in January waiting for the province to clarify how the tax would work – that it would be a simple provincial sales tax increase to 7.5 per cent rather than a separate line item on bills as the government first indicated. One of the biggest missteps of the campaign arguably happened before it even started. Surrey Mayor Linda Hepner’s election campaign promise that she would find a way to build light rail in her city even if the referendum failed put the Yes side in trouble in the region’s second largest city. Why, some residents asked, should they vote to pay for a new tax if they’d still get light rail without it? In the end, 65 per cent of Surrey voters rejected the tax. Elsewhere in the region, voters were receptive to No campaign suggestions the money could be found by fixing waste within TransLink. Mayors struggled to explain why drivers should pay more for transit they don’t use. “People were worried about change, they were worried about pricing, they were worried about waste at TransLink,” said Peter Robinson,

president of the David Suzuki Foundation and co-chair of the Better Transit and Transportation Coalition. “All of those came together in a brew that made it very difficult for folks to keep thinking about the real issue – how do we move people around this region.” By February, an early lead for the Yes side had evaporated and a new poll put the No campaign decisively ahead by 15 points. The 10-week period when mail-in ballots were accepted saw a blizzard of campaign claims by both sides. Yes forces rolled out economists, medical health officers, police chiefs, university presidents and others to ar-

gue why improved transit would be good for residents. No campaign strategist Jordan Bateman, in contrast, stuck to a single, simple message: TransLink wastes tax money and it can’t yet be trusted with any more. On the defensive, the TransLink board, which includes the Vancouver and Surrey mayors, removed Ian Jarvis as CEO of TransLink in February but kept him on as an advisor to avoid a costly payout. That meant the hiring of an interim CEO at $35,000 a month, creating the spectre of “two CEOs.” Rather than rebuilding trust and turning the page, the move added more mo-

mentum for the No side and refocused public attention on executive salaries. In March, billionaire businessman Jim Pattison stepped forward to head a committee that would, if the tax was approved, oversee the flow of money and ensure it wasn’t misspent by TransLink. As the campaign wound down, mayors hosted telephone town halls to field questions, grassroots campaigners crafted viral videos and Yes forces worked to identify supporters and persuade them to send in their ballots. All the effort didn’t come cheap. The Mayors Council spent $5.8 million on the campaign, but spending by some cities, other Yes campaign partners, as well as Elections BC’s costs push the total bill for the plebiscite to more than $12 million. “The whole thing was a waste,” said SFU City Program director Gordon Price, who said there should never again be such a referendum. “How can you possibly justify spending another $12 million, including the Elections BC part, for a dubious outcome?” – Black Press

More shots were fired in Surrey early one morning last week, this time, at a car driving on Fraser Highway. Surrey RCMP received a report at about 3:20 a.m. June 30 from a caller who said a black Dodge Durango with five or six South Asian men pulled up next to a black Nissan Maxima near 157 Street and two men fired shots from the Durango. The Durango drove away eastbound on Fraser Highway, and the Maxima followed in hopes of getting a licence plate number. However, someone in the Durango fired at the Maxima again and the driver halted the chase. The Durango was last seen heading westbound on the highway, say police. The occupants of the Maxima called police and were uninjured. “We’re fortunate that no one was hurt and we don’t recommend that anyone pursue armed suspects for obvious safety reasons,” said Cpl. Scotty Schumann. “Our investigators are now searching the route for surveillance camera footage and will be completing a forensic examination of the victim’s vehicle. Investigators are still combing Fraser Highway for evidence and motorists may experience some delays in the area.” Surrey RCMP have not said whether they believe the shooting is related to the more than three dozen that have taken place in Surrey and Delta since March. About half of those are believed to be connected to a turf war between drug dealers. Anyone with more information about this shooting can call the Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502 or Crime Stoppers, if they wish to remain anonymous,

Meet cops for coffee The Surrey RCMP is hoping to build community relationships over a casual cup of coffee this month. The pilot program will begin with three sessions at coffee shops in three different areas of the city, including Cloverdale, in July. Community Services Officer Insp. Ghalib Bhayani, along with the local district commander for the area, will meet residents and business owners for a free hour of conversation and coffee. “Given the nature of our work, the majority of our contacts with the public are emergencies or very emotional situations,” said Bhayani. “These situations are not always ideal for relationship building, so our ‘Coffee with a Cop’ initiative aims to provide a much more relaxed interaction with community members. This is a great opportunity to ask questions, voice concerns and get to know the officers in your neighbourhood.” The first session is in Newton at Espresso Cafe (#1112 - 7330 137 St.) on July 10. Cloverdale is next on July 24 at Rustic Rooster (#5 - 5723 176 St.), with South Surrey on July 31 at Moka House (#40 - 16041 24 Ave.) All coffee talks are from 9-10 a.m. The initiative is modelled after similar ones that have taken place across North America – a concept launched in Hawthorne, California in 2011. Coffee with a Cop has now been hosted in more than 2,000 communities in 48 U.S. states.

Parker, Wotherspoon selected in NHL draft By Rick Kupchuk A pair of defencemen from Surrey heard their names called June 25 at the National Hockey League (NHL) Entry Draft. Parker Wotherspoon of the Tri-City Americans was selected by the New York Islanders in the fourth round, 112th overall, while Devante Stephens of the Kelowna

Rockets was claimed by the Buffalo Sabres with the first pick of the fifth round, 122nd overall. “I’m really excited to be a part of such a great organization,” said Wotherspoon, who was in Florida when the Islanders called his name. “It’s been one of the best days of my life that I’ll never forget. Can’t wait to get to camp and be in Brooklyn for the first

time and get to know it.” The 17-year-old is the younger brother of Calgary Flames defenceman Tyler Wotherspoon, and just completed his second season with the Americans in the Western Hockey League. He scored nine goals and added 33 assists for 42 points, all of which were career bests. He played in all 72 games, was Tri-city’s leading

scorer among defenseman and was sixth overall in team scoring. He also played at the U18 World Junior Championships, netting a goal and five points in seven games to place third in tournament scoring among defenceman, helping Canada to win a bronze medal. Wotherspoon will attend the Islanders training camp in September,

but will return to the Americans just before the season begins. “It is a thrill for Parker to be selected by the New York Islanders and our entire organization and fans share in his excitement at this moment in his career,” said Americans general manager Bob Tory. “We look forward for him to continue to be a key part of our club next season.”

Stephens earned his team’s Rookie of the Year award this season, after scoring four goals and 11 points in 64 games. He had plenty of opportunity to impress NHL scouts in the postseason, as the Rockets claimed the WHL championship and went to the final of the Memorial Cup tournament, losing 2-1 in overtime to the Oshawa Generals.

He will also attend an NHL training camp in September, and will likely be returned to the Rockets before the Sabres start regular season play next season. But Buffalo is convinced they have selected a future NHL defenceman. “We’re convinced he’ll be an NHL player so we believe we had a steal there,” said Sabres director of amateur scouting Greg Royce. – Black Press

In recognition of her work over three decades in high school athletics, BC School Sports has named Nancy Champagne as its Female Provincial Coach of the Year. A teacher at Fleetwood Park Secondary, Champagne has coached cross country and track and field, and has also volunteered as an athletic board member, a zone coordinator and a provincial commissioner. “Through all of that, she has remained a tireless advocate for athletics and the importance of sport within our schools,” Fleetwood Park athletic director Mike Sweeney and principal Cory McLaughlin wrote in their nomination letter. Champagne has coached more than 2,500 athletes over the years. Her track and field teams have won more than 15 Surrey district championships since Fleetwood Park opened in 1993. “This is testimony both to her coaching ability as well as her capacity to motivate athletes to do things they didn’t think were possible,” the letter read. Champagne is the current B.C. high school provincial cross country commissioner. Past accomplishments include lowering entry fees from $40 to $15 per student, introducing a Junior championship which is recognized by BC School Sports, and creating a separate governing body for cross country. Over the years, athletics has grown in the district, which is the largest in the province. “Surrey is well taken care of,” said Champagne, who was “totally surprised” about the award. “We get a lot of support and there are a lot of school districts that do not.”

Water restrictions boosted reservoir levels respond to the stage 2 measures. At stage 3, all lawn sprinkling is banned, and hot tubs and pools canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be refilled. At stage 4, all watering of plants with treated drinking water is banned, all car washes, water parks and public outdoor pools shut down, and many other water uses are allowed only if ordered for health and safety reasons. Stage one restrictions are the standard rules that run from June through September allowing thrice weekly early morning lawn sprinkling. Metro officials are urging residents to take whatever additional steps they can to help conserve. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have never had May and June this dry,â&#x20AC;? Metro utilities committee chair Darrell Mussatto said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important we use our water wisely.â&#x20AC;? The last time Metro went to stage 3 restrictions was in 2003, the year of the Kelowna wildfires, and more restrictive local restrictions were imposed in the Surrey area in 1997-98 after a water main under the Fraser River failed.

By Jeff Nagel Metro Vancouver has imposed stage 2 water use restrictions throughout the regional district to conserve drinking water in light of declining reservoir levels. The stored water supply in the regional districtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s reservoirs is down to 79 per cent of their capacity as of June 28. That number has declined rapidly to record low levels for this time of year as a result of weeks of hot, dry weather and the quick melt of a meagre snowpack. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re really into uncharted territory when were outside that normal range,â&#x20AC;? said Tim Jervis, Metro Vancouverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s water services general manager. The tougher restrictions under Metroâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Water Shortage Response Plan mean a drop to once-aweek-only sprinkling of lawns â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Â Mondays from 4 to 9 a.m. for even-numbered addresses and Thursday mornings for odd-numbered addresses. Watering of school yards, sports fields, park lawns, cemeteries, boulevards and golf course fairways are also limited to minimal levels, in most cases once a week. Stage 2 restrictions also mean a ban on the use of pressure washers and other hosing off of outdoor surfaces, with limited exceptions, such as health and safety or preparing a driveway for painting or sealing. Only water play parks with user-activated switches are now allowed to operate. Decorative water fountains will also be shut down, but hand-operated drinking water fountains wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be affected. Hand watering of flowers, vegetable gardens and trees is still allowed. Metro Vancouver member cities are expected to begin enforcing the new restrictions by Monday (July 6) under their own bylaws in response to the Metro declaration, which was issued Friday. Bylaw enforcement officers would first issue warnings, then fines, if necessary. Other exemptions to the sprinkling restrictions apply in situations where newly seeded lawns must be watered or chafer beetle treatments have been applied. Stage 2 restrictions are expected to remain in place until Sept. 30. And the regional district could go further and impose stage 3 or 4 restrictions if required. Jervis said the region will carefully gauge how
