Th e man charged with murdering Surrey hockey mom Julie Paskall has been ordered to stand trial in B.C. Supreme Court
A preliminary hearing for Yosef Jomo Gopaul was held last Tuesday and Wednesday in Surrey Provincial Court to determine if there was suf-fi cient evidence to warrant a trial.
Evidence presented at preliminary inquiries cannot be reported due to a publication ban.
Gopaul, 27, was arrested fi ve months after Paskall was killed outside Newton Arena in late 2013. She was attacked Dec. 29 while picking up her son from hockey in what police said was a robbery gone
wrong. She died in hospital Dec. 31, leaving behind her hus-band of nearly 35 years, two adult daughters and a teenage son. She was 53.
Julie’s hus-band Al spoke outside court last week, say-ing he harbours
guilt about his wife’s death, lament-ing he didn’t pick up his son that fateful night. He said he’ll attend court often to honour Julie.
“Somebody has to be here for her,” he said. “I wasn’t there when I should have been…”
Th e case will now proceed to B.C. Supreme Court in New Westmin-ster. Gopaul’s next scheduled court date is March 12.

A dad has permanent spinal damage after a crash last Tues-day night on Fraser Highway – the fourth in a string of erratic hit-and-run rear-enders that police believe all involved the same driver.
Surrey RCMP say on Tuesday,
Jan. 27 just before 9 p.m., a 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe SUV was driving west on Fraser Highway near 184 Street when it rear ended a 2006 Mercury Grand Marquis three times. Th e Hyundai fl ed the scene and kept driving west on Fraser Highway.
Th e Mercury followed and saw the Hyundai strike another car
at 176 Street. While the car that was hit pulled over, the off end-ing driver kept going.
When it reached 152 Street, the Hyundai then attempted to squeeze between two vehi-cles and struck a 2005 Toyota Camry.

The driver of a 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe SUV is extricated from his vehicle by emergency personnel after the SUV was involved in a series of hit-and-run rear-end collisions on Fraser Highway last Tuesday. The crashes left several people hurt – including a father and son who were taken to hospital in critical condition. The 10-year-old boy has since been released, but his 53-year-old dad has sustained life-altering spinal injuries. CURTIS KREKLAU PHOTO

More than 30 per cent of infants in the Fraser Health region are not getting vaccinated on schedule and public health offi cials say that rate of non-compliance is a concern.
Fraser statistics show 69 per cent of two-year-olds are up to date on the standard recommended vaccinations against diseases such as diptheria, measles, polio and Hepatitis B.
Th at’s short of the region’s current target of at least 73 per cent and a goal of more than 80 per cent immunized by 2017. Th e province has a target of 90 per cent by 2023.
Medical health offi cer Dr. Michelle Murti doesn’t think the statistics refl ect a dangerous level of ideological opposition to vaccinations.
She said 94 per cent of new par-ents in the region start their kids’ vaccinations at the two-month mark but many then fail to keep them up, perhaps losing track after they return to work.
“Th ey do start but then life gets busy and we see signifi cant drop-off over that two year schedule, especially at the 12- and
18-month points,” Murti said.Nor is the phenomenon new.Fraser’s immunization rates for two-year-olds have hovered
around the same level for the past fi ve years, ranging from a low of 61 per cent in early 2010 to a high of 72 per cent in the spring of 2012.
Murti said she believes the rates are similar for B.C. as a whole and not unique to the Fraser Health region.
Th e health authority released its statistics this week, she said, in an attempt to “capitalize” on public interest in the measles outbreak linked to Disneyland in the U.S.
Fraser got more calls from parents wanting vaccinations in the wake of the Disneyland outbreak than during the local measles outbreak last year that was centred on Chilliwack.
Murti said the immunization rates are quite consistent across the Fraser region, with minor exceptions.
“We do know we have pockets of communities, especially in the Fraser East area, where we have low rates due to personal objec-tion to immunizations,” she said.
Surrey’s Guildford and Cloverdale neighbourhoods, on the other hand, are a bit higher than the regional average.
Murti thinks technology can help parents keep track of their kids’ immunization schedules and boost rates over time.
She said parents can sign up for free text message reminders of when their baby needs to return for boosters or download a free smartphone app to record and follow the vaccination schedule.
Th ere’s also a free child health passport that can be obtained from public health offi ces or downloaded online.
Links to all three resources, as well as immunization schedules and more information can be found at fraserhealth.ca/immunize.
Murti said it’s also important for newcomers to B.C. to transfer their health records so their immunizations are on fi le here.

If you’ve ever had a car insurance claim greeted with suspicion by ICBC, there are a few hundred reasons for that attitude.
B.C.’s basic car insurance monopoly has released a report on fraud attempts from 2014, part of an estimated 10 to 15 per cent of insurance claims it says involve fraud or exaggeration. During the year, ICBC investigators referred 131 cases to Crown prosecutors for charges, with convictions in nine out of 10 of them.
ICBC highlighted some of the eff orts to obtain insurance coverage that should not have been paid and how investigators responded.
• A customer reported his truck was stolen at a movie theatre. Th e vehicle was recovered, burnt. A vehicle inspection showed the burnt truck had serious mechanical problems, contrary to what the customer told ICBC. Th e customer’s cellphone records revealed that he was at the scene where the burnt vehicle was found.
Th e customer pleaded guilty to providing a false statement, was fi ned $4,000 and ordered to pay
ICBC back more than $3,000 for investigative and claims costs.
• A customer who was prohibited from driv-ing claimed his vehicle had been stolen at the time it was involved in a three-vehicle crash. Forensic testing of residue on the vehicle’s driver-side airbag revealed a DNA match to the customer and proved he was the driver at the time of the crash. Th e customer was
found guilty of providing a false statement, fi ned $1,000 and ordered to pay ICBC back more than $18,000 in claims costs and total loss payments for the other two vehicles involved.
• A customer told ICBC his Honda Civic was parked outside his home when it was struck by an unknown vehicle that fl ed the scene. Damage was not consis-tent with a hit-and-run and paint fl ecks matching the customer’s Civic were found embedded in a vehicle from another hit-and-run claim.
When confronted with this evidence, the driver of the Civic admitted to making a false claim, as he had fl ed the crash scene after his vehicle struck another. Fine: $1,000, plus $5,600 in claim and repair costs.
• A customer with only basic insurance and an ex-pired driver’s licence rear-ended another vehicle. Th e customer asked the driver in the other vehicle to tell ICBC the crash happened a day later so she could buy optional insurance, which would cover the damage to her vehicle. Th e other driver refused.
Th e underinsured customer then bought optional insurance on her way home from the crash. She was assessed the $7,400 cost of repairs to both vehicles.

Again, the SUV did not stop and contin-ued further on Fraser Highway, where it was
involved in a fourth collision.
Th is time, a Saturn Vue carrying a 10-year-old boy and his dad was hit from behind, near
145 Street.Th e Saturn was sent
spinning into oncoming traffi c and was struck on the passenger side by an oncoming Toyota
Tacoma pick-up.Th e boy and 53-year-
old driver of the Saturn were taken to hospital in critical condition.
On Friday, police confi rmed that while the child has now been released from hospital and is doing okay, his dad has permanent, life-altering spinal injuries.
Th e Hyundai lost control after the crash with the Saturn and veered into a ditch. Th e suspect driver had minor injuries and went to hospital briefl y before being arrested and spending the night in custody. Investigators believe alcohol and ex-cessive speed may have contributed to the series of crashes.
Charges have yet to be laid as the investigation is ongoing.
Th e woman driving the Tacoma suff ered a broken arm and wrist, while the drivers and passengers from the fi rst two collisions were not injured.
Police say they have yet to hear from the oc-cupant(s) in the second car hit near 176 Street and are interested in speaking with them.
Witnesses who saw the Hyundai Santa Fe leading up to and/or during any of the crash-es are also sought.
Anyone with informa-tion is asked to contact the Surrey RCMP’s Criminal Collision Investigation Team at 604-599-0502, quoting fi le #2015-13251.

More than 600 container truckers say they’re eff ectively out of a job because they’ve been barred from loading at Port Metro Vancouver terminals under a new licensing system.
Th e reforms, devised by the port and the provincial and federal governments, aimed to control the hyper-competitive industry by reducing the number of trucks permit-ted to serve the port and applying fi rm controls on them.
It’s intended to end rampant undercut-ting on rates that has been the trigger for labour unrest in the past, including a month-long strike last year.
But there have been casualties and exact-ly who they are became clear last week.
Th e survivors announced by Port Metro Vancouver are 68 companies with 1,450 trucks, while another several hundred trucks with 84 other fi rms that previously hauled containers in and out of the port are cut out of the new system.
Drivers and other aff ected workers rallied with their families Saturday in Holland
Park in Surrey to protest the changes, which took eff ect. Feb. 1.
Drivers, in theory, could do “off -dock” work – hauling containers between ware-houses that don’t require port access – or switch to diff erent hauling services, but some of those protesting said they doubt there’s enough work to support the trucks now denied port licences.
Port offi cials defended the changes.
Peter Xotta, vice-president of planning and operations, said the industry has been unstable for too long, with drivers having diffi culty making a living, adding there’s widespread agreement there were too many licensed trucks and drivers.
“It is unfortunate, and unavoidable, that some will no longer be licensed to access the port, but they are still able to provide driving services that do not require port access,” he said.
Th ere had also been accusations in recent weeks that the minimum rates passed by the province were not in line with the agreement that ended last March’s strike.
Th e province announced further adjust-ments to address those concerns last week.
It has also pledged that a container trucking commissioner will review some issues related to trucker pay.
SFU urban studies professor Peter Hall said the process of regulating truckers and reducing the number of licences was always going to “create winners and losers” with real pain for those excluded.
“Th ere is a trade-off ,” he said. “We can have a small number of good jobs in cargo movement, or a larger number of bad ones. We can’t have both, and perhaps the real culprits here are those that keep over-claiming what port expansion means for the region.”

After years of talk and hundreds of vicious attacks, testing is now underway on a plastic shield to protect Metro Vancouver bus drivers from hostile passengers.
Th e clear polycarbon-ate barrier went into regular service Th ursday on one Coast Mountain bus that will run various routes in north Burnaby as a six-month trial, and three more buses of diff erent types will be outfi tted with similar shields this spring in Surrey, Port Coquitlam and Vancouver.
Assaults on drivers were down in 2014 to 119 from 134 in 2013, but anxiety continues to run high for drivers after various severe attacks over the years.
Despite the concern, drivers have never been fully on board with the idea of a physical barrier, as some don’t want it to
interfere with how they interact with friendly passengers.
Nathan Woods, president of the union representing bus drivers, said he’s optimistic the barrier being tested will work.
“Th e type of assaults this barrier will help to eliminate are the vicious ones – the sucker punch-es that debilitate and damage drivers’ lives for weeks if not years,” Woods said.
Derek Stewart, Coast
Mountain’s director of safety, environment and emergency manage-ment, said the test is be-ing funded and overseen by WorkSafeBC, which will also help assess the fi ndings.
A key issue is whether drivers can hear passen-gers clearly and commu-nicate with them.
Stewart said it appears that won’t be a problem as long as the passenger isn’t soft-spoken.
Th e hard plastic is impact-resistant with
low-glare but another concern is that drivers may get too hot.
Stewart said early testing suggests it will provide adequate pro-tection.
“We re-enacted assaults by having somebody sit there and pretend to be suck-er-punched,” he said, adding the shield also blocks spitting and thrown beverages.
If the new barrier is approved, it could still be limited to just certain bus routes, rather than a full roll-out.
TransLink runs various models of buses and each type will have to be custom-fi tted with the new barrier, if it is adopted.
Th ere’s also hope Par-liament will soon pass tougher criminal penal-ties for assaulting a bus driver. A bill is expected to go to third reading in the House of Commons in the next few weeks that would require judges to consider an assault against a transit worker to be “aggravat-ed”– which could result in federal jail time.

Th e B.C. education ministry put on a forum on the future of education last week, bringing together public and pri-vate school leaders with experts from around the world.
I watched the proceedings via webcast from the Wosk Centre for Dialogue in Vancouver, which gives you a hint about the forces pressing in on our cen-tury-old industrial model of schooling.
First up was Andreas Schleicher, on video link from his offi ce in Paris, where he is director of education and skills for the Organization for Economic Co-op-eration and Development (OECD). He began with the international problem of people coming out of university who can’t fi nd jobs, amid a skills shortage.
Schleicher said this is happening today because, “it’s not what you know but what you can do with what you know.” Some education systems are adapting better than others as the value of merely passing on facts has declined.
He said these days, almost any stu-dent can pass any multiple-choice test if they have a smartphone. Th e question
for parents is what to do “if you want your child to be smarter than a smart-phone.”
Th e OECD runs international testing that consistently ranks B.C. and Canada among the best schools in the world, and Schleicher described how that test-ing has evolved to keep up.
But our progress in the past 10 years has tended to be slower than some Asian countries, despite B.C. be-ing on the “high end of investment” in education. He warned against the trap of the industrial school model, “pouring money in” to “do more of the same.”
Some of the best results emerging from a decade of digitally driven glo-balization have been achieved through innovations that were fi nanced through bigger class sizes, Schleicher said.
Th is was too much for one B.C. Teachers’ Federation representative in the audience, who introduced herself as someone who spent the last transfor-mational decade working for the union, not in a classroom. She disputed the OECD’s fi nancial calculations, lecturing
some of the world’s top economists that based on “spending power,” B.C. schools are cash starved.
She followed this with the laundry list of BCTF demands that hasn’t changed in 40 years – smaller classes, more prep time, more money.
Th e keynote speaker was Yong Zhao, University of Oregon professor of educational measurement, who gave a highly entertaining critique of stan-dardized testing and creativity-crush-ing drills of the basics. (You can fi nd a video archive at www.bcedplan.ca).
Yong sparked a lively discussion about the need for foundation skills, which he and others agreed remain vital to success. Th e issue seems to be how to instil those basics while avoid-ing the disengagement of students who see school as irrelevant to their lives.
Education Minister Peter Fassbender announced at the forum that the prov-ince is about to unveil new curriculum
that moves toward individual learning for all students. And he said there will be a series of experiments conducted at yet-to-be-identifi ed B.C. schools to pioneer new models of learning.
BCTF President Jim Iker sat stoically through the proceedings, where speak-ers described integrating community groups and businesses directly with schools. Th at’s underway here, with trades training in particular.
Iker’s record on adaptation is clear from his own career. Th e only school where he actually taught was in the northwest B.C. village of Topley, and it closed in 2010 due to a long-term decline in rural students.
By 2001 Iker had left the classroom to work for the Burns Lake teachers’ union local, which the BCTF con-tinues to staff eight years after that school district and others disappeared through amalgamation.

Th e move to lower the Bank of Canada’s key lending rate by 0.25 per cent last month caught most observers and analysts by surprise.
While the main reason for the surprise drop is economic uncertainty caused by the sharp fall in the price of oil, it will have many ripple eff ects.
Th e move means that interest rates will be lower for almost all loans. While that can be a good thing for people with variable rate mortgages, lines of credit or about to renew their mortgages, it also may encourage some people to take on more debt.
For most Canadians, and particularly for younger peo-ple who own their own homes in this part of B.C., that can be a bad move.
Th e Metro Vancouver area has the second-most unaf-fordable housing in the world, based on household income.
Th e only place that is even more unaff ordable is Hong
Kong. However, Hong Kong has some good reasons to be so unaff ordable. It is situated on a small piece of land, and while offi cially part of China, it operates with diff erent eco-nomic and legal systems. It is a hub for business in Asia and is defi nitely a world-class city.
Vancouver, on the other hand, while it is situated in a beautiful geographical area that is limited by water and mountains, its economy is nothing like Hong Kong’s.
Although some aspects of the Metro Vancouver econ-omy – like port activity and software development – are robust, other areas of the economy are struggling.
Th is has led to a virtual freeze on many people’s wages in the past six years, yet hous-ing prices have continued to rise, due at least in part to off -shore investors parking their money in what they perceive
as a safe environment. Th e ripple eff ect of this activity has driven many people farther from their jobs, as they at-tempt to fi nd something they can aff ord.
Th e result of all this is that younger fi rst-time buyers have taken on enormous amounts of debt to service their mortgages. Because of this borrowing, they often have taken out other loans to meet other expenses, such as auto loans or payday loans.
Th e average Canadian debt level is over 160 per cent, meaning that people owe over $1.60 for every dollar that they make.
Lower interest rates will like-ly be benefi cial to the larger Canadian economy, but people who already have high levels of debt should take advantage of them primarily to pay off their debts more quickly – not to borrow even more.

VIEWPOINT6 The Surrey-Nor th Delta Leader Tuesday Februar y 3 2015
Re: “Deadly dog walker sent to jail,” Th e Lead-er, Jan. 29.
Th is is a tragic story for all parties involved. As Judge James Jardin said in Surrey Provincial Court, while (Emma) Paulsen may not have intended to kill the dogs, her conduct after the incident constituted “continued repeated recklessness.”
Poet Lord Byron wrote, “Oh, what a wondrous web we weave, when we fi rst decide to deceive.”
Since Paulsen’s own dog was one of the dogs in the truck when six dogs died in her care, this further enforces my belief that this was nothing more than a stupid, tragic and preventable acci-dent on her part. If only she had come clean and admitted that she had made a fatal mistake on the part of the six dogs that died, and profusely apologized for her negligence, things might have turned out better for her. She may have avoided the six months in jail she received.
Trying to cover up her negligence by driving these dead dogs all the way from Langley to Abbotsford and dumping them in a ditch only compounded her problem, and showed insensi-tivity to both these dogs and their owners.
Th at is, she proved to be her own worst ene-my.
If she had sought legal counsel, she could have probably pleaded guilty to a lesser charge than animal cruelty and public mischief.
Animal cruelty is a deliberate and malicious act to make an animal or animals suff er need-lessly. Th ere was no evidence of this having taken place. Public mischief was obvious, on her part.
By the way, the article’s accompanying photo by Evan Seal with the caption: “Angry animal rights activist Kat Chapman is refl ected in Emma Paulsen’s sunglasses after an earlier ap-pearance by Paulsen at Surrey Provincial Court,” was priceless and an absolute and unmitigated masterpiece on the part of this photographer. He should get a prize for it.
Chapman should be ashamed of herself for stalking and harassment this poor woman. Paulsen has already suff ered enough public humiliation to last a lifetime.

After the unpro-voked, senseless slaying of 53-year-old Surrey mom Julie Paskall, Newton has finally had enough and is determined to take back its commu-nity from a long-fes-tering history of crime.
The usual responses to crime and crime prevention, as put forward by former Surrey mayor Di-anne Watts – such as more police presence, intensified video surveillance, men-tal health initiatives, etc. – can be effective measures to be taken by the embattled community of New-ton.
However, no prog-ress to combatting an escalating situation of street crime will be made unless we tackle the fundamen-tal judicial problem of the courts routinely handing out soft or no sentences... send-ing convicted felons back on the street through the revolv-ing door of a catch-and-release justice system.
Instead of feebly portraying violent criminals as victims of societal exclusion, measures to help put an end to street crime must entail, first and foremost,
resolute legislation for tougher sentenc-ing that would send a clear message to would-be felons that judicial tolerance for street crimes is over.
What is needed now is political courage to act.
Enough with crime and punishment Canadian style, where the rights of convict-ed criminals trump the fate of their very real victims; where lenient sentences have made drug traf-ficking and organized crime the crimes that pay; and where bail is granted, few questions are asked, and criminals are free again to roam the streets.

▼ DEAD DOGS STORY IS A TRAGIC ONE FOR ALL INVOLVED I agree with recent letter writer S.
Walton: Destroying Green Timbers Urban Forest would be nonsense.
I’ve been driving from 156 Street to King George Boulevard using 100 Avenue for four years. It is a joy to travel to and from work surrounded by the relative calm and beauty of an urban forest. It is lovely to hear the birds sing. It calms the nerves.
For a while I’ve been thinking that something fi shy is going on. Th ere have been fewer tall trees in that park on both sides of 100 Avenue as if little by little, trees are being cut, pulled, pushed or broken down. Th e green and lush canopy on the edges on 100 Avenue is gone. We need more urban oases, not fewer.

Province agrees to blend proposed 0.5% transit tax with existing PST
JEFF NAGEL
Th e proposed 0.5-per-cent sales tax for transportation improve-ments – if passed by voters in a referendum this spring – will simply be added to the seven-per-cent Provincial Sales Tax on receipts instead of adding an extra line and more headaches for businesses.
B.C. Transportation Minister Todd Stone outlined the change in a letter to Metro Van-couver mayors over the weekend.
It will still be known as the Metro Congestion Improvement Tax but would not be displayed as a distinct third tax on
bills or require complex adjustments for busi-nesses.
“Consumers would see a combined PST and MCIT totalling 7.5 per cent at the point of sale,” Stone said. “We would not require businesses to separately identify the MCIT on receipts or invoices.”
Stone was responding to business complaints about the extra complex-ity that an additional tax line was going to create.
Th e Retail Council of Canada last week said it would oppose the referendum unless the province agreed to har-monize the new tax with the PST so it doesn’t become a separate tax and burden for business.
Retail council spokes-man Greg Wilson said the tax threatened to create a “dramatic increase in red tape.”
Stone said the new tax, if approved, will mirror the tax base of the PST
as much as possible, un-less Metro mayors want additional exemptions.
Metro mayors origi-nally proposed a simple 0.5-per-cent increase to the PST, but the province had indicated it would instead be a sep-arate tax with its own name applying to the “majority” of transac-tions subject to PST.
B.C. Chamber of Com-merce President John Winter said the prov-ince’s decision addresses
the concerns of small businesses that they would have shouldered a signifi cant new cost and administrative burden.
“Th is announcement removes this concern entirely,” he said.
Mayors’ Council Chair Gregor Robertson said mayors won’t seek any further exemptions and praised the province for ending confusion over how it would be collected.
“Application of the PST to the tax base has always remained a provincial responsibility and this harmoniza-tion provides seamless administration. We want to ensure that simplicity continues so we will not be requesting any further exemptions.”
Robertson noted everything that is PST-exempt – including groceries, children’s clothing, transportation expenses and prescrip-tion medicine – would be exempt from the new Metro tax.
Still unresolved is whether big purchases like vehicles will be taxed based on where the buyer lives, not where the sale takes place – a key concern of Metro car dealers worried about losing business to out-of-region competitors.
Th e additional sales tax to be charged only in Metro Vancouver would raise $250 million per year to fund the region’s share of $7.5-billion in transit and trans-portation upgrades, including light rail lines in Surrey, a Broadway subway in Vancouver, 11 new B-Line express bus routes, a 25 per cent lift in bus service and more frequent SeaBus runs.
Voters should receive the mail-in ballot in late March and have until May 29 to send it to Elections BC.
▶ REFERENDUM ‘YES’ RESULT WON’T CREATE THIRD TAX LINE ON BILLS
The Retail Council of Canada said last week it wanted a PST increase, rather than creating a third tax that would cost thousands of dollars to set up. Over the weekend, B.C. Transportation Minister Todd Stone agreed. FILE PHOTO

Th e trial for a couple accused of plotting to set off pressure cooker bombs at the B.C. Legislature on Canada Day 2013 began Monday at B.C. Supreme Court in Vancouver.
John Nuttall and his wife Amanda
Korody, who were living in a Surrey basement suite when they were ar-rested on conspiracy and terrorism-re-lated charges in early July 2013, have pleaded not guilty.
Nuttall was 38 and Korody 29 when they were arrested in Abbotsford July 1, 2013 and charged with making or possessing an explosive device, conspiracy to commit an indictable offence and knowingly facilitating terrorist activity.
Police seized what they called three “improvised explosive devices” made
from pressure cookers containing nails, nuts and bolts that were placed on the grounds of the legislative assembly where thousands of people were to gather for Canada Day cele-brations.
B.C. RCMP said the arrest was made following a five-month investigation.
The trial, which began after The Leader’s press deadline on Monday, is scheduled to run for four-and-a-half months.

Legal Services DirectoryExcluded Property: The Impact of Joint Tenancy
B Y B R Y N H I R S C H , L A W Y E R
A recent case, Wells v. Campbell, 2015 BCSC 3 (CanLII), had the husband bring property valued at $160,000 into the relationship. That same property was appraised at $850,000 at the time of trial. Under the Family Law Act, the value of $160,000 would generally not be considered family property subject to division. This case is somewhat different though – the husband made his wife a joint tenant on title several years prior to the separation.
In finding that the property in its entirety was family property, the Court highlighted the fact that the parties were joint tenants: “…the overriding fact is that he transferred the property into joint tenancy with Ms. Campbell in 2008. As is well known, a joint tenant in a property holds an undivided equal share in all of that property.”
The lesson here is obvious: be very careful about joint tenancy if you want to preserve excluded property.

TransLink is under pressure to prove to passengers that they can be swiftly evac-uated from SkyTrain during a crisis such as a fi re.
Belcarra Mayor Ralph Drew is demanding answers in light of an electrical fi re that shrouded a stopped Canada Line train in smoke Dec. 20 and says TransLink’s board has failed to answer safety questions he previous-ly raised.
“I believe that TransLink’s board of directors should undertake an inde-pendent expert review of SkyTrain emergen-cy evacuation proce-dures for scenarios involving smoke and fire,” Drew said in a letter that TransLink officials are to address at a mayors’ council meeting Friday.
In an interview, Drew said TransLink “dropped the ball” on the safety issue when it hired Toronto transit expert Gary McNeil to investigate the causes of two long SkyTrain shutdowns last sum-mer.
McNeil’s Nov. 14 report makes no men-tion of the capacity of SkyTrain staff to evacuate passengers in an urgent emergen-cy, instead focusing on preventing and recovering from major delays.
Th e fi ndings prompt-ed TransLink to commit to $71 million in measures to improve the system and a target
of reaching stranded trains within 20 min-utes so passengers are less likely to evacuate themselves and aggra-vate delays.
Even a target of de-termining the cause of a guideway intrusion within 10 minutes isn’t fast enough, Drew said.
“If a train fi lls with toxic smoke, 10 minutes doesn’t cut it,” he said. “It’s a life-and-death issue and minutes count.”
Drew said he raised
emergency response questions in an Oc-tober conference call to outline McNeil’s findings for mayors, but said TransLink board chair Marcella Szel asked the conver-sation be taken “off line.”
He said he got no follow-up answer and after “stewing” about the Dec. 20 incident decided to bring the is-sue before the mayors’ council.
Drew said if
TransLink has a more robust plan to deal with emergencies it needs to be made public.
“People want to have the confi dence that they’re travelling in safety.”
Drew also wants to know what advice TransLink is getting to prepare for potential terrorist attacks target-ing the transit system.
TransLink offi cials were unavailable for comment.

Surrey is one of the top seven “intelli-gent communities” in the world – accord-ing to a New York-based think tank.
Th e Intelligent Community Forum (ICF) evaluates communities on their ability to plan for the future using new technology, while still respecting their unique cultural identities.
Th e city made the organization’s 2015 list – released online Jan. 22 – along with U.S. communities Arlington County, Va.;
Columbus, Ohio; Mitchell, S.D.; Rio De Janeiro, Brazil; Ipswich in Australia; and New Taipei City, Taiwan.
It was announced in October that Sur-rey was one of 21 semi-fi nalists selected from more than 300 nominations.
In June, the Intelligent Community of the Year will be named at a ceremony in New York City.
Surrey, receiving its fi rst recognition from the ICF, was cited for a “diversifi -cation strategy deepening the partner-ship between its institutions of higher
learning and local business” as a means of transitioning from a suburban past to a “sustainable urban future.”
Singled out for praise was the city’s In-novation Boulevard project, for bringing together health technology, clean-tech and advanced manufacturing under the oversight of representatives from gov-ernment, developers, universities, Fraser Health, non-profi t organizations and business associations.

It is common knowledge that massage therapy eases aches and pains and helps us to relax, but
what many individuals don’t know is that massage therapy has many heart health benefi ts as well.
Because massage therapy triggers the body to lower cortisol levels, it can also lower your heart rate and improve blood fl ow. Furthermore, massage therapy is recognized for lowering blood pressure which is
also important for a healthy heart.

Th e length of time
an immigrant has been living in Canada greatly infl uences their yearly income, according to a
report released earlier this month.
Statistics Canada analyzed the incomes of immigrants during the past fi ve years and compared two time frames, those who landed during 2003-2007 and those who arrived in 2008-2012. Th ey found the incomes of immigrant tax fi lers steadily increased in relation to the number of years a person had been in Canada.
In 2012, immigrants who had been in the country longer earned an average of $7,000 more than those who immigrated more recently.
Delta resident Jimuel Vistan, 19, said he and his family immigrated from the Philippines nine years ago and there is a reason why his parents started out earning low incomes in Canada.
“My parents had a really diffi cult time
when we fi rst came to Canada,” he said. “My mom was a banker in the Philippines, but here her education was not seen as equivalent – so she couldn’t get a job in her profession.”
Vistan said his father had an even more diffi cult time. He had been a goldsmith in the Philippines and earned a good living, but after coming to Canada, he could only fi nd work as a janitor.
“It took my dad eight years before he was able to get a job as a goldsmith,” Vistan said. “I don’t know how much my parents make, but I know they are defi nitely mak-ing more than when we fi rst came to this country.”
Jagtar Dhaliwal, manager of employ-ment and community development at Pro-gressive Intercultural Community Services society (PICS) in Surrey, said for immi-
grants, there is much more to getting a job than just applying.
“We fi nd out what kind of barriers they have – language barri-ers or lack of knowing
where to go and how to use the transit systems – and we help them with that,” he said. “Th en we work on their resume and cover letter and help them fi nd
a job suited to their skills.”
Th e fi eld a person is in greatly infl uences their chances of fi nding employment when they arrive in Canada he said.
“It takes doctors and lawyers about four years to upgrade their degrees,” Dhaliwal said, “but nurses don’t usu-ally have that issue.”
Dhaliwal said many immigrants coming to Canada are highly educated with masters degrees or PhDs, and they are aware of what they will need to do to work in Canada.
“Before they arrive they look on websites and inform themselves, so they know what to expect – but we are here to help if they need any support.”
For more informa-tion, visit the PICS website at pics.bc.ca or call the Surrey offi ce 604-596-7722 or the Delta offi ce at 604-591-9116.

A pair of SFU undergraduates have been selected to a national cohort aimed at “transforming Canada’s most promising post-secondary students into lead-ing entrepreneurs.”
Surrey residents Gursher Sidhu and Lauren Wat-kins were among 38 students who earned a spot on Th e Next 36 – an undergraduate entrepreneurship development program – following a selection week-end in Toronto last month (January) that included interviews, workshops, speakers and more.
Sidhu, a fourth-year student in Mechatronic Systems Engineering, said Th e Next 36 will challenge him “to adapt to a rapidly moving environment as well as learn and apply a large amount of knowledge in a very short amount of time.”
“I will be pushed outside my comfort zone and coming out I will be very pre-pared to handle the obstacles of building and growing a company,” Sidhu said in a news release.
Watkins, who is studying entrepre-neurship and social innovation at SFU’s Beedie School of Business, described her selection to the cohort as an honour.
“I am working with some extremely smart and talented people. I am very ex-cited to get started on our business and to be able see all the diff erent businesses that grow from Th e Next 36.”
Sidhu and Watkins were among 630 to apply for a spot with Th e Next 36.
For the next seven months, they and their fellow interns will build their companies with the support of mentors, a unique academic program and a pool of business advisors.
Th ey are to re-converge in Toronto in May; Th e Next 36 culminates in August with a Venture Day showcase.

Members of the ALS Society of B.C. gathered at ABC Restaurant in Fleetwood recently to honour Shirley Cook, 86 (centre), who is retiring after leading the Surrey ALS support group for the last 19 years. EVAN SEAL
BLACK PRESS
ALS Society of B.C. mem-bers gathered at ABC Restau-rant in Newton last week to honour one of the society’s longest-serving volunteers – 86-year-old Shirley Cook.
Cook has volunteered as the leader of the society’s Surrey Support Group for nearly 20 years, and has been instrumen-tal in ensuring the well-being
of patients, family members, friends and caregivers of indi-viduals living with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease. Cook lost her husband to ALS.
ALS is a progressive neuro-muscular disease in which nerve cells die and leave voluntary muscles paralyzed. Every day, two to three Canadians die of the disease.
Taking part in last week’s celebratory send-off for Cook were Surrey Support Group members, Wendy Toyer, executive director of the ALS Society of B.C., Jamie Jackson, director of patient services, and Iman Ghahremani, vol-unteer and events support coordinator.

RICK KUPCHUK
A pair of frustrating losses against opposition from Van-couver Island has extended the KPU (Kwantlen Polytechnic Univesity) Eagles losing streak to six games, but hasn’t cost the men’s basketball team much ground in the PACWEST (Pacifi c Western Athletic Conference) playoff race.
Th e Eagles were beaten 115-56 by the Vancouver Island Mariners (VIU) Friday night at the KPU Surrey campus,
then were topped 91-46 by the Camosun Chargers Saturday afternoon.
KPU is now at 2-12 on the season with seven games to play, but are still just a game back of the 3-11 Capilano Blues in the chase for the fi nal playoff position.
In Friday’s game against the fi rst-place Mariners (13-1), the Nanaimo team jumped on the Eagles early and never let up. VIU led 35-13 after just 10 minutes, and had a 68-29 cushion by halftime.
Th e Mariners dominated the boards, grabbing 65 rebounds to KPU’s 25. Th ey also shot 57.5 per cent from the fi eld and 79 per cent from the free throw line, while the Eagle were good
RICK KUPCHUK
In their final home game of the season, the KPU Eagles took another step towards qualifying for the PACWEST (Pacific Western Athletic Conference) women’s basketball playoffs.
The Eagles rallied from a five-point deficit at three-quarter time to upend the Camosun Chargers of Victoria Saturday afternoon at the Surrey campus of Kwantlen Polytechnic University, improving their PACWEST record to 4-10 (won-lost).
KPU remained a game ahead of the Columbia Bible College Bearcats, who edged the Chargers 79-76 in overtime Friday night in Abbotsford. The Chargers are two games up on the Eagles.
“I think we are really playing well as a team right now, playing for each other,” said Eagles head coach Dan Nayebzadeh, “We are celebrating each other’s successes and that’s a big thing.”
Kwantlen began a two-game weekend with a narrow 56-50 loss to the Vancouver Island Mariners Friday night, also in Surrey. The Eagles fell behind 31-11 in the second quarter, but shaved five points off the deficit before halftime then outgunned the Mariners 14-4 in the third quarter to go into the final 10 min-utes trailing by just five points at 35-30.
“I thought we played quite well and stayed com-petitive,” said Nayebzadeh. “We were down by 20 at the half but really clawed back and caught up to five points at the end of the third quarter.”
Forward Amber-Lee Kava-nagh of Langley and Surrey’s Shilpa Khanna with 11 points each, and Samantha McPhail with 10 paced a balanced KPU offense. Khanna, McPhail and Haeley Williams each collect-ed five rebounds.
Holy Cross high school graduate Jessica Villadiego contributed eight assists.
In Saturday afternoon’s game, the Chargers raced to a 17-7 lead early in the second quarter, but KPU surged ahead 26-24 by halftime. In a game that saw 13 lead changes, Camosun went up 42-37 after three quarters.
Kwantlen outscored their guests 21-11 over the final 10 minutes for their third victory of the season, and third in their last five starts.
Khanna was the top scorer, netting 18 points and adding seven rebounds. McPhail had a double-dou-ble, with 12 points and 14 rebounds. Fourth-year guard Christina Brown also scored in double digits with 10 points.
“Today we were down, but we fought. We battled, came back from behind, and we hit some big shots at the end,” said Nayebzadeh after the game.
“Overall it was a team effort from not only our starters, but the bench as well so I’m pleased that everyone stepped up.”
The Eagles have a difficult weekend ahead of them. On Thursday, they visit the 7-7 Capilano Blues in North Vancouver, then travel to Squamish Saturday for a clash with the 14-0 Quest Kermodes.

It was an eventful weekend for the Surrey Eagles, just not one that resulted in any vic-tories for the beleaguered BC Hockey League (BCHL) squad.
The Birds dropped a pair of weekend tilts – losing 5-2 on the road Friday to the Coquitlam Express, before getting squeezed out 4-3 by the Prince George Spruce Kings Saturday night at South Surrey Arena.
Saturday’s game was par-ticularly tough for the home side, as Surrey was forced to ice a roster of just 17 players – one short of the usual – that included two affiliate players, after some late-game shenan-igans on Friday resulted in a suspension for forward Sam Chatterley and head coach Blaine Neufeld.
Late in the third period against the Express, Chat-terley was issued a slashing
penalty. After serving his minor, he stepped out of the box and instigated a fight with Coquitlam’s Dustin Cave.
All told, Chatterley was assessed a fighting major, instigator, and a misconduct. Instigating a fight after a whistle comes with an auto-matic five-game suspension, as well as a three-game ban for the player’s head coach.
“They’re trying to get fighting out of the game, so it’s a severe penalty (for a coach), but I understand it,” said Eagles head coach Blaine Neufeld, who watched Satur-day’s game from the bleachers as assistant coaches Brad Tobin, Craig Thomas and Chad Scharff ran the bench.
Captain Ben Vikich and BCHL rookie Tyler Harkins were the lone goal-scorers for the Eagles Friday.
The game was tied 1-1 after 20 minutes, but the Express exploded for four goals in the middle frame to take control of the game.
Saturday’s game was close early, as well. Prince George led 2-1 after 20 minutes –
affiliate player Tyler Andrews scored the Eagles’ lone goal – but the visitors extended the lead to 4-1 by the 6:37-mark of the second.
Surrey made it close before the second intermission, with Spencer Unger and Vikich – on the power play – scoring for the home side.
Despite the losses, Neufeld was still impressed with his team’s resolve – especially Saturday, when the Eagles battled back from a 4-1 deficit to make it a one-goal game.
“We were really putting a lot of pressure on them late, when we were down by three, and that was good to see,” Neufeld said.
“You don’t know if they’re just going to roll over and fold the tent, but they didn’t. They battled hard.”
The Eagles hit the road this weekend, with a game Saturday in Trail against the Smoke Eaters, and Saturday in Salmon Arm against the Silverbacks. On Monday – the Family Day holiday – Surrey is at home for a 2 p.m. affair against Coquitlam.
▶ DEPLETED LINEUP LOSES A PAIR OF BC HOCKEY LEAGUE GAMES
Suspension leaves Eagles short
on 33.3 per cent of fi eld goal tries and went 50 per cent from the line.
“We had great mo-ments of teamwork, but we also had problems with layups, three’s, and free throws,” said Eagles head coach Vladimir Nikic, “Turnovers and off ensive rebounds also hurt us. Until we fi gure out how to stop turning the ball over, we are
going to continue to struggle.”
Rookie guards Brendan Bailey with 20 points and Jaiten Rana with 12 were the top scorers for the home side.
Saturday afternoon wasn’t much better for the Eagles. Th ey were down 26-7 after one quarter, and trailed by 24 points at the half.
Rana and Bailey were Kwantlen’s top scorers, each netting 10 points.
Centre Navdeep Brar and forward Trevor Schulz were the leading rebounders with seven each.
An end to their losing streak will put KPU into a tie for the fi nal playoff position. Th e Eagles travel to North Van-couver to play Capilano Friday night. Th ey then visit the third-place Quest Kermodes (11-3) Saturday night in Squamish.
