ernment is looking to develop a modern defence policy that will advance Canada’s interests at home and abroad. The session was designed to elicit dialogue on the main challenges to Canada’s security role, such as current threats abroad and defence issues at home, along with exploring what Canada’s military mandate should be. “As Canadians, we know there’s probably more we can do,” Aldag said. He asked participants to weigh in on the main challenges to Canada’s security, what role the Canadian Armed Forces should play in addressing current threats and challenges, and the resources and capabilities needed to carry out its mandate. For instance, Aldag asked attendees if having the military respond to national

Kurtis Peardon, who served in Afghanistan, said disaster readiness offers welcome opportunities for military training that otherwise might not be available. “Rebuilding the military is a good thing,” he said, describing what in his view is an under-resourced military where service men and women don’t always find uniforms in their correct sizing, and of aging military hardware See CHALLENGE / Page 5

Cloverdale-Langley City MP John Aldag holds a copy of the federal government’s discussion paper on the future of Canada’s defence policy.
By Jennifer Lang Restoring Canada’s military and peace-keeping ability to historic levels, replacing aging equipment, and improving compensation to injured veterans are among the priorities raised at a public forum in Cloverdale on national defence policy moderated by MP John Aldag. The June 10 session at the Cloverdale Legion drew about 25 people, many with a connection to the military – from veterans and family members of service men and women, to those with contemporary service at home and abroad. The federal government has launched public consultation sessions as it develops a new defence policy. Aldag, who represents Cloverdale-Langley City, said the federal gov-

ime will tell if a decision to forego plans for a community court in Surrey is a good one. The news, confirmed June 2 by B.C’s Attorney General Suzanne Anton, surprised and disappointed those who, a decade ago, saw the system as one that had potential to tackle many of the city’s crime issues at their roots – mental health and addiction. Others say the new direction – of a ‘justice hub’ providing wraparound services akin to a community court at the soon-to-be-expanded Surrey courthouse – is no less pleasing. “I think what we’re getting is a good step forward and we’re going to see how that works first,” Surrey Mayor Linda Hepner said last week. The tack – of ‘seeing how that works’ – is curious, given that research has documented the efficacy of community courts elsewhere. Hepner’s Surrey First predecessor Dianne Watts, certainly thinks so. Now MP for South Surrey-White Rock, Watts advocated for a community court during her time as mayor and said, upon hearing the latest decision, that it breaks repeated provincial promises of establishing such a facility. “We know it works,” Watts said. “That model has been replicated throughout the world and it continues to work.” The system is considered best-practice in states such as New York, where arrests for some crimes have dropped by more than 50 per

cent. As well, a Vancouver lawyer, who was asked in 2012 to review the province’s clogged court system, pointed to community courts as part of the solution. Surrey’s overloaded court system is well-documented. Gordon Bylo has watched his schizophrenic son suffer through a justice system ill-equipped to deal with his mental-health issues for nine years. Many others are in the same position – either watching a loved one fall through the cracks, or repeatedly finding themselves back before the courts with little done to address what keeps them offending. A community-court model, with a separate judge and Crown counsel, is described as one of “instant accountability” that is effective in tackling low-level crime. Not only are penalties swift, but with relevance to the crime committed. That can include counseling for domestic violence, or restitution for acts of theft and graffiti. Those convicted of relatively minor crimes resulting from substance abuse are sent directly to treatment, usually within hours of court appearance. It would be interesting to know what drove the decision to forego the creation of a community court in Surrey. The choice has been made to wait and see if it was the right decision. Hopefully, it won’t take a decade to find out. – Black Press

About 25 people turned out for a June 10 forum on at the Cloverdale Legion on shaping Canada’s national defence policy. It was hosted by MP John Aldag.
federal Liberals’ axing of a contract to spend billions on new helicopters signed by the Mulroney-era Progressive Conservatives. “That was a sin we Liberals committed,” said Jim King. “I think we should bring in a more bi-partisan approach to the future.” The forum heard that there is a desire that Canada’s military be strong enough to help allies. “We should decide what we are going to be and invest in it,”
said Marc Buchell, who stressed it’s important not to just stretch the budget. “Clearly, we haven’t allocated enough to our armed forces to begin with,” Buchell said. “We do play a major role.” Ken Dennis said the lifetime pension should be reinstated for veterans, a point echoed by Sandi Wright, a member of the Maple Ridge Royal Canadian Legion. Her husband served in the Korean War. “[MPs] They have
no idea what they are going through,” Wright said. “They risk their lives and we’re taking their pension away from them.” To July 31, Canadians can also participate online at canada.ca/ defence-consultations, where they can read a public consultation paper and submit comments. There will also be six, cross-country, round-table meetings leading up to that date.

that makes it challenging for Canada to fulfill its mandate at home or abroad. “We need new subs, planes,” he said. “We don’t have the equipment to be able to support [allies]. It’s bad enough that you can’t get a uniform in the right size.” Aldag said the national defence program currently represents just under $20 billion of the annual federal budget, a figure some told the forum is too low. There was also discussion on international peace-keeping and current and emerging threats such as Afghanistan, Ukraine, defending the arctic, and even worries about what a possible Donald Trump presidency in the U.S. might bring. The use of drones in military capacity and the reach of the military technology into space were also touched on. Some said they were concerned about rising threats in Europe, particularly Russian aggression in crimea and Ukraine. “I refuse to be scared,” said a woman from Langley. “In the U.S. every day 99 people are shot. To me that’s a civil war below us.” “I think we should bring the peace movement back into our thinking,” she added. NATO guidelines say member countries should spend at least 2 per cent of their GDP on defence, but Canada spends less than that, which puts it behind its U.S. and UK allies. Canada also lags behind countries like Turkey, Denmark, Germany and the Netherlands. One participant said having a larger military would give Canada a greater influence in the world, and greater choices in the event of conflict. “It’s a great point,” Aldag said. “We’re not there.” A number of people said they felt its time to rebuild the military. One participant, Jim King, lamented the

The plant was previously a Schneiders processed meat plant, he confirmed, but the story goes further back, according to Bose, who remembered the Bolter family and their home-based business, which grew into a major operation in Cloverdale. The business literally started as a cottage industry at their home, located not far away in Cloverdale, Bose said. The couple started delivering chicken to grocery stores and decided to open a cannery so they could expand. They purchased land that was part of a farm owned by Ted Molyneux (coincidentally a founding member of the Surrey Historical Society, of which Bose is a member), south of Highway 10 at 176 Street, or Pacific Highway. Eventually, they sold the business. By then it had grown into an operation that employed up to 15 people and filled a two-storey building.

Surrey RCMP see robbery spike A jump in Surrey home robberies has RCMP sending out warnings to the public. Between April and June of this year, there have been 37 break and enters in Surrey where the suspect gained entry to the home through the garage using a garage door opener taken from a vehicle. In April and May, garage door openers have respectively accounted for three and four per cent of residential break ins. In June, that number has jumped to 11 per cent. The jump in break ins comes on the heels of large drops in property crime during the first three months of this year. Surrey RCMP are anxious to get in front of the recent trend. “Taking steps to help reduce property crime is everyone’s responsibility,” said Cpl. Scotty Schumann. “It only takes a thief a few moments to get into your car, find the garage door opener, and then have access to your home. Take the time to remove all valuables from plain sight in your vehicle including garage door openers.” Schumann said, as it is in many cases, the recent spike in break ins could well be the work of a few. The patterns are somewhat the same. A perpetrator breaks into a car on the street, where a garage door opener is visible. He or she then tries the door opener until a garage opens. Often, the homeowner has not secured the door from the garage into the house, so the robbery is a matter of walking in. Surrey RCMP’s Property Crime Target Team (PCTT) is working closely with crime analysts to identify suspects and areas where similar crimes might occur. This helps police plan and target their uniformed and plainclothes enforcement activities. The PCTT is also actively identifying, tracking, and arresting chronic offenders who are responsible for committing a large percentage of these crimes. Anyone with more information is asked to contact the Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502 or Crime Stoppers, if they wish to remain anonymous, at 1-800-222-8477 (TIPS) or www.solvecrime.ca. – Black Press

Cloverdale, Mission top real estate sales By Martin van den Hemel Real estate continues to be a highly sought after asset in the Fraser Valley, with May sales following up strongly on a record-breaking April. While foreign buyers are the talk of real estate in the Lower Mainland and blamed for skyrocketing prices, Jorda Maisey, past president of the Fraser Valley Real Estate Board, said overseas capital isn’t behind the Fraser Valley’s hot market. “Is it foreign buyers? I haven’t experienced that in the areas I’ve been working in,” she said. It’s locals. A property listed in south Langley recently drew five back-to-back showings, with only one client coming from outside the Fraser Valley, Maisey said, which has been typical. In Surrey, the biggest year-over-year price gains have been in the Fraser Heights neighbourhood, with median selling prices hitting $1.2 million, and listed homes lasting on the market for an average of just 12 days. White Rock remains the most expensive area in the Fraser Valley but price increases haven’t kept pace with other neighbourhoods seeing more sales activity. The hottest area is Mission in terms of the sheer number of properties changing hands. The median selling price has reached $595,000 and the average home remains on the market for just 14 days, she said. Home sellers are encouraged to select a new home before cashing in, if they can afford to, Maisey said. If they can’t, she added, “they know that they

could be camping for the summer until they can find something.” While the market overall hasn’t slowed down, Maisey said she’s noticed prices have dropped on listings in some large acreage neighbourhoods, and multiple offers have become less frequent. Asked if a change is on the horizon, Maisey said she doesn’t have a crystal ball. But looking at the economics, and seeing so many small stores with help wanted signs on the door, she said the market appears healthy.

Surrey smoke alarm program saves lives A made-in-Surrey smoke alarm campaign has earned kudos for reducing fire-related injuries and death in the city and across British Columbia.
The B.C. Working Smoke Alarm Campaign – launched in March 2012 – aimed to increase the number of working smoke alarms in homes across the
province. Last week the City of Surrey and the Fire Chiefs’ Association of British Columbia were honoured by the Canadian National Collabo-
rated Centre for Injury Prevention for their campaign. “I am proud that the smoke alarm initiative has been recognized for the important
work it has achieved and more importantly, saving lives not only in Surrey but across the province,” Surrey Mayor Linda Hepner said. “The research confirms
that functioning smoke alarms save lives, reduce fire-related injury, reduce the spread of fires, and reduce the damage of fires.” The campaign was

‘Functioning smoke alarms save lives, reduce fire-related injury, reduce the spread of fires and reduce the damage of fires.’ - Mayor Linda

based on research involving Surrey staff, working with University of the Fraser Valley, to study nearly 50,00 fires in B.C., Alberta and Ontario over five years. The data revealed that two-thirds of homes that catch fire don’t have working smoke alarms; the fire damage is reduced by 19 per cent when a working smoke alarm is present; and that the death rate per 1,000 fires is 74 per cent greater when a working smoke alarm is not present.
The research paper Smoke Alarms Work, But Not Forever: Revisited, compared pre-campaign information (from 2007 to 2011) with post-campaign information (from 2012-2014). It found that the number of working smoke alarms per 1,000 fires had increased by 26 per cent; that deaths per 100,000 citizens declined by 65 per cent; deaths per 1,000 fires declined by 37 per cent; and that the number of fires without smoke alarms had decreased by 17 percent. “At the heart of the award has been the collaboration between Surrey and the FCABC that shared the common goal of keeping the public safe from injury and death related to fires,” Surrey Fire Chief Len Garis said. Garis also commended Kidde Canada for sharing corporate knowledge and communications expertise from the start of the campaign. The campaign has seen 41,000 smoke alarms distributed and installed throughout B.C., with a focus on vulnerable populations such as seniors, First Nations communities and people with low incomes.

Trudeau, Clark accord on transit a first step By Jeff Nagel Metro Vancouver’s transit expansion plan is closer to chugging out of the station but it is not yet fully on track, despite a high-profile pledge last week from Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Premier Christy Clark to swiftly commit $616 million. The federal government’s unprecedented 50 per cent share of transit upgrades committed by Ottawa earlier this year will provide $370 million for first-phase projects, while the province has
pledged $246 million as its own third. “I’m proud that the very first such agreement we’ve signed is right here in British Columbia,” Trudeau said at the SkyTrain operations centre in Burnaby. “This is just phase one.” If all unfolds according to plan, TransLink CEO Kevin Desmond said bus service could increase by early next year, and a third SeaBus could be in service with sailings as often as every 10 minutes. But those immediate
service increases as well as a planned order to buy more SkyTrain cars from Bombardier all depend on Metro mayors quickly hammering out an agreement with the province on how the region will raise its 17 per cent share of capital costs plus another $3.9 billion in additional operating costs over 10 years. If there’s no deal by the end of August, officials admit, the purchases of new vehicles have to be shelved, along with any early service increase.
The phase one plan calls for 28 new SkyTrain cars for the Expo and Millennium Lines, 22 new Canada Line cars, five more cars for the West Coast Express and a new SeaBus – $255 million worth in all. “We need some other funding mechanism to close the gap,” Surrey Mayor Linda Hepner said. “And that’s the hard work that’s going to have to happen next.” Hepner hailed the bilateral agreement of the senior governments
– the first one for major new transit funding in Canada under the Trudeau Liberals – as a “very significant” step forward. One reason for Hepner’s optimism is the deal ensures $157 million in design and other planning work for the Surrey light rail lines and Broadway subway will now go ahead, putting those projects in position to break ground in 18 months. Actual construction will still depend on a phase two agreement

‘People should have a direct vote on whether that new form of taxation is acceptable.’ - Jordan Bateman, Canadian Taxpayers Federation
Metro mayors last month pressed the province to agree to either a new funding source, such as a vehicle levy, or dedicate $50 million a year from an existing one, such as the carbon tax. And they don’t want the plan subjected to the uncertainty of another referendum, like the one that defeated the proposed regional 0.5 per cent sales tax last summer and continued a years-long impasse over transit expansion. While the mayors have previously resisted any voluntary increase in TransLink property taxes, they gave ground on that point when they tabled their funding proposal last month. It would accelerate TransLink property tax increases to an automatic three per cent a year from the two per

cent currently set in provincial legislation. Not all mayors attended the TrudeauClark announcement. Maple Ridge Mayor Nicole Read said she boycotted the event because of concerns new taxes or even road pricing will be unfair to her residents. Minister for TransLink Peter Fassbender said he won’t speculate on whether the plan can fully unfold without a new referendum but insisted the federal-provincial agreement is a major sign of good faith that Ottawa and Victoria will work with the region. Canadian Taxpayers Federation spokesman Jordan Bateman called for a referendum on any eventual move to improve road pricing, which mayors and the province have agreed to investigate. “You have to have social licence from people on road pricing,” Bateman said. “People should have a direct vote on whether that new form of taxation is acceptable.” An initial chunk of regional funding will come from TransLink’s sale of $125 million in surplus property in Vancouver. Bateman called that “great validation” for No voters last year that TransLink has been forced to liquidate its own assets rather than simply seek more taxes.

“It’s a huge opportunity for me, as a 16-year-old, to come in. I’m so excited to get the season going.” Donohoe’s older brother, Taylor, played in the BCHL from 1999-2003, before moving on to Wayne State University in the NCAA. The young prospect shone at the Eagles’ spring evaluation camp earlier this year, said assistant coach Brad Tobin. “His size is a big factor that stands out,” he said. “His gap control and his one-on-ones when players came into the zone against him were excellent at spring camp. “He wasn’t used to playing against junior

By Nick Greenizan It might be the offseason, but the Surrey Eagles have been as busy as ever trying to right the ship for the coming season, after back-to-back years in the basement of the BC Hockey League. In the last two weeks, the Eagles have received commitments from two players – 19-year-old defenceman Jackson Ross, and 16-year-old South Surrey resident Hunter Donahoe, also a defenceman. As well, the Birds re-acquired Darius Davidson in a trade with the Penticton Vees last week. The 20-year-old forward – among the team’s top goal-scorers last year – was dealt from the Eagles to the Vees midway through last year. Donohoe joins the Eagles from the Semiahmoo Minor Hockey Association; he was also an affiliate player this past year with the BC Major Midget League champion Valley West Hawks. “I grew up in Ocean Park watching (the Eagles) and I always wanted to play for them,” the six-footthree blue-liner said in a news release.
