KEVIN DIAKIW

A huge smoke stack is being erect-ed in Port Kells for a biofuel facility.

Surrey has announced it is erect-ing a 70-metre (229-foot) stack in January 2016 at the facility near 98 Avenue and 192 Street.

For reference, the giant Canadian flag at the car dealership at 152

Street and 104 Avenue is 85.85 me-tres (282.4 feet) high – or 15 me-tres taller than the planned stack.

When operational, all of the waste air will be sent into the stack, making it a critical com-ponent of an odour mitigation system.

KEVIN DIAKIW

One man is dead and another injured after a shooting in Newton on the weekend.

On Saturday, just after midnight, police were called to a home near 152 Street and 66 Avenue after shots were heard in the area. When police arrived, they found two men in a vehicle suff ering from gunshot wounds.

One of them was unresponsive and despite their best eff orts, rescue crews could not revive him.

As of Monday, the victim had not been named by police, but the Surrey Field Hockey Club is identifying him as Surinderpal Singh Hehar.

JEFF NAGEL

Th e chair of Food Banks BC is backing a proposal to create a federal tax break that encourages businesses to donate more food to local charities.

Marilyn Herrmann, who is also executive director of the Surrey Food Bank Society, said there are “endless” amounts of usable food that could be retrieved from restaurants, grocers and other suppliers that now throw it out.

Th e National Zero Waste Council proposes the federal gov-ernment create a new tax credit for businesses linked to the fair market value of food they donate to charities such as food banks, shelters and soup kitchens.

Herrmann said while many businesses already strive to do-nate usable food, such an incentive could prod others to both save money and help put more unused food to good use.

“It’s not even waste, it’s perfectly good food,” Herrmann said. “Something that may just be undersized according to

a grocery chain’s standard doesn’t mean it’s bad food.”Lower Mainland food banks regularly retrieve huge

skids of food that producers or retailers have been unable to sell fast enough.

“Sometimes we come back with incredible donations,” Herrmann said, adding dairy producers occasionally over-produce yogurt and donate large volumes that are too close to their expiry dates.

It’s a retail reality that consumers won’t buy those products.

“People are so hung up on these best-before dates that as soon as it hits the day, they just throw it out with-out even checking the quality of the product,” Herrmann said.

JEFF NAGEL

Five Conservative MPs from the Lower Mainland have been named as critics in the Official Opposition’s shadow cabinet.

Former Surrey mayor Dianne Watts, in her first term as South Surrey-White Rock MP, was named critic for infrastructure and communities.

Langley MP Mark Warawa will track se-niors issues.

Veteran Abbotsford MP Ed Fast, the former government’s longtime minister of international trade, is the Opposition critic for environment and climate change.

Chilliwack-Fraser Canyon MP Mark Strahl is critic for fisheries and oceans, and the Coast Guard.

Re-elected Rich-mond MP Alice Wong is small busi-ness critic.

The appointments were made Friday by interim party leader Rona Ambrose’s shadow cabinet.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau named three Lib-

eral MPs from B.C. to his cabinet earlier this month – including new Delta MP Carla Qualtrough, who was named Minister of Sport and Persons with Disabilities.

Vancouver MPs Jody Wilson-Raybould and Harjit Sajjan were named Justice Minister and Defence Minister, respectively.

A report by the National Zero Waste Council doesn’t estimate how much lost tax revenue a new credit might cost Ottawa.

But it projects a range of benefi ts that would result from a more effi cient food system.

One of those benefi ts would be less organic waste going into landfi lls. Metro Vancouver estimates the drop in garbage resulting from the tax credit would mean reduced greenhouse gas emissions equiv-alent to taking 275,000 cars off the road.

Metro Vancouver regional district directors vote Friday on whether to endorse the idea.

BC Restaurant and Food-service Association President Ian Tostenson said the big-gest worry for restaurateurs donating food to charities is

ensuring it stays food safe and doesn’t make anyone sick.

“If they can get through the issues of food safety and sanitation, I think it’s a great idea,” Tostenson said. “I don’t think business even needs a tax incen-tive to do it. I think they’d just do it if they can do it in a way that doesn’t create liability.”

Other critics have suggested the tax break could lead to businesses dumping unusable food on food banks – increasing their disposal costs.

“Th ere defi nitely are challenges to this, no ques-tion,” Herrmann said. “You have to have the capacity to handle the volumes of food that are being off ered to you.”

Richmond Mayor Malcolm Brodie, who chairs Metro’s Zero Waste Committee, said the tax credit would be worthwhile, even if it’s not a silver bullet curing food waste.

“Our hope is this would lead to a far bigger uptake and get a lot of that edible food into the hands of charities that can divide it up and use it eff ectively.”

An estimated 170,000 tonnes of edible food – equivalent to 300 million meals – ends up in Canadi-an landfi lls every year. In monetary terms, that’s an estimated $31 to $107 billion of waste in the produc-tion, shipping and fair market value of the food.

Meanwhile, Herrmann and Food Banks BC are pressing the B.C. Liberals to keep a promise they made in the 2013 election campaign.

Th e party’s platform committed the provincial government to “give growers a tax credit of 25 per cent of the wholesale value of food donated to a food bank.”

Herrmann said that would be a useful incentive that both helps farmers and encourages them to donate produce and fruit that could help feed the needy.

Undersized apples that are good but too small for retailers are a prime example of what might be con-tributed in larger volumes instead of being dumped

▶ RESTAURATEURS ARE WORRIED ABOUT LIABILITYfrom page 3

Th e facility will con-vert kitchen and yard waste into renewable natural gas (RNG), which in turn will fuel the city’s natural gas waste collection trucks and service vehicles.

It will also provide a renewable fuel for the city’s new district energy system in City Centre.

Th e facility will also produce a compost product that will be suitable for landscap-

ing and agricultural applications.

Th e facility can receive and process 115,000 tonnes of organic waste annual-ly. When completed, the facility will be the largest of its kind in Canada with a capacity to process all of Sur-rey’s organic waste.

Once the biofuel pro-cessing facility is op-erational, Surrey will be home to the fi rst closed-loop, fully inte-grated organics waste management system in North America.

Police often say there’s no such thing as a “routine” call, and a series of incidents earlier this month serves at testament to that.

On Nov. 12 at about 6 a.m., Surrey RCMP were called to a report of a do-mestic disturbance in Guildford.

When police arrived, the suspect had fl ed the area with a female purportedly confi ned inside a vehicle.

A short time later, Mounties received a call of a single-vehicle accident at 148 Street and 80B Avenue. Th e driver was taken into police custody and the female, who knew the driver, was

returned to her family.During a search of the vehicle, police

found a loaded AK-47 assault rifl e, a restricted handgun, and a large amount of a substance believed to be cocaine and heroin.

Police subsequently learned that two youth who heard the crash went to off er assistance. Th ey were allegedly given a fully loaded fi rearm and asked to hide it.

Th e two youth took the gun home and gave it to their father, who in turn called police.

Saleh Mohammed, 22, has now been charged with 15 off ences, including forcible confi nement, uttering threats toward police, possession of a prohib-

ited weapon, possession of a restricted weapon, careless use of a fi rearm with ammunition, possession of a prohibited device and possession for the purposes of traffi cking.

He remains in custody and is scheduled to make his next court appearance on Nov. 25.

“Th e arrest of this individual is signifi -cant not only in disrupting the activities of those involved in the local drug trade, but also removing such dangerous weap-ons off our streets,” said Surrey RCMP Sgt. Paul Hayes. “Th ese criminals have a careless disregard for public safety and our detachment and community will not tolerate their actions.”

He was a man in his 40s and had two young children. He also worked at Deltaport, according to CTV News, and was shot outside of the family home after being picked up for the graveyard shift by a co-worker.

Residents of the area say they have been rattled by the shooting.

“Th ere’re a lot of kids on this street and it could have happened during the day... And it’s also right across from a school,” one resident told CTV News. “So it’s scary, it’s scary.”

Th ere is an outpouring of shock and grief on the Surrey Field Hockey Club website for the loss of Hehar.

“It is with profound grief, sorrow, and disbelief, that we announce the passing away of a great friend, a brother, a mentor and member of our club, Surin-derpal Singh Hehar, earlier today,” the fi eld hockey club posted on a Facebook memorial. “We, his friends, family members, his hockey fraternity, are all in a state of shock and disbelief at this.”

Gutu Sidhu wrote: “Sorry to hear about the loss, our deepest thoughts and prayers for the family. He was a great guy on and off the fi eld and u will be missed by all of us. May your soul rest in peace.”

Jassi Jaglit Kular wrote: “I was deeply shocked to hear of the death of Surinderpal Hehar. My deepest sympathy to his family for this irreparable loss they have suff ered.. and to members of Surrey Lions Club,

this is to let you know how deeply I feel for you in your sorrow. You have my heartfelt sympathy.”

Th e second shooting victim remains in hospital being treated for his injuries, which are not consid-ered life-threatening. 

Th e Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) is now investigating.

Investigators believe this to be a targeted shooting, however they say at this point there is no indication the shooting has any connection with any other gun-related investigations in Surrey.

“I want to reassure the public that their safety is of paramount concern,” said IHIT Sgt. Stephanie Ashton. “IHIT investigators, Surrey RCMP and other Lower Mainland investigative units are working to determine the circumstances that led up to this incident.”

Re: Interfaith pilgrimage in Surrey on Friday.

Th e multi-faith masses mingled in Surrey with a view to spread the message of love, respect, honour and equality. 

Th ey came forward to show solidarity and sincerity, which strengthen the bond among all sections of society.

A healthy exchange of ideas, meaningful dialogue and a true sense of understanding are always benefi cial to removing misconceptions.

Th e indiscriminate killing of innocents and suicide bombing

are contrary to the teaching of Islam and all other religions and faiths.

If the nations of the world do not work towards a united agenda, the world we live in will become even more danger-ous to all of us.

What happened in Paris is not a problem for France alone. It is a confrontation to man-kind. Th e time has come for nations of the world to act as one in fi nding  lasting solutions to restore safety and security on the planet.

Every human being deserves a peaceful and coexistent life. Th e eff orts of  Surrey’s diverse community is most welcome. 

I hope all remain steadfast in maintaining  permanent peace.

Th e fall session of the B.C. legisla-ture petered out two days early last week, as the ruling B.C. Liberals and the Opposition NDP agreed to turn out the energy-effi cient lights and head for home.

NDP leader John Horgan skipped the last day and headed to the B.C. Institute of Technology campus in Burnaby. There he announced “PowerBC,” billed as the NDP’s “bold, progressive plan for the future of B.C. energy, with a strong focus on jobs.”

Reporters asked, how many jobs? Horgan said retrofitting public buildings and homes for energy ef-ficiency would create jobs all around the province, but he can’t say how many.

How much does the plan cost, and does it include subsidizing home-owners to fix their windows and insulation?

“Th e costing will be more apparent when we get closer to the election,” Horgan replied.

Whatever the cost, the NDP plan

apparently rests on the assumption that the $9-billion Site C dam project on the Peace River can be stopped by an NDP government after the 2017 election. Th at money would be used to build wind and solar generation, and to install a sixth and fi nal water turbine at Revelstoke dam.

Th e chances of Site C being stopped are approaching zero. Construction of an access road started two months ago, site clearing and work camp con-struction a month before that. Energy Minister Bill Bennett says the main dam construction contract will be let shortly, followed by the powerhouse contract next year.

Horgan said remaining legal challeng-es could slow or stop the project.

Th e West Moberly and Prophet River First Nations have lost their case against Site C twice, in the B.C. Supreme and Federal Courts, and are appealing. Th e Doig River and McLeod Lake Indian Bands dropped their challenges, and McLeod Lake’s con-struction company has started work on a Site C contract.

West Moberly Chief Roland Willson staged a dramatic protest at the leg-islature last spring, bringing a cooler of frozen bull trout from a river below the two existing Peace dams, telling media they were too contaminated with mercury to eat.

Flooding land for hydro dams does elevate methylmercury levels in water, but BC Hydro provided me with the latest study that included fi sh samples collected by West Moberly members. It shows average methylmercury levels remain below federal guidelines for limiting consumption of commercially sold fi sh.

It’s an odd coincidence that Willson suddenly made this claim, 47 years after the fi rst Peace dam was complet-ed, when he happened to be in court trying to stop Site C.

A coalition of U.S. and Canadian en-vironment groups is also demanding that Site C be stopped, using typical arguments to appeal to their low-in-formation donor base. According to

the Sierra Club and others, Site C is not renewable energy because the (largely idle) farmland it fl oods is a “carbon sink.” Forests do store carbon, albeit temporarily, but farmland where the trees have been cleared? Th is is gluten-free gobbledegook.

Th ey also trot out the claim that Site C will be used to power liquefi ed nat-ural gas operations. Most proponents so far have said they will use gas for LNG processing, and if they don’t have hydro available for ancillary power, they will have to burn more gas.

BC Hydro has just fi nished its latest grid upgrade, a second high-voltage transmission line from Merritt to Coquitlam. It adds disaster reliability to the system that brings power from the Peace and Columbia dams to the Lower Mainland.

If you’re arguing that hydroelec-tricity isn’t renewable power, you’ve already lost.

It is a great gesture to accept so many refugees. But I hear so many people saying that Canada should accept them. Well, Canada is made up of people and as such, the people of Canada have to accept the refugees. It is easy to say we should accept them and then dump it on the province and the cities and towns that are ill-pre-pared for such an infl ux.

So I have a suggestion: Let our govern-ment show the way.

I call on our prime minister, his (our) ministers, the MPs, and all those who vot-ed in favour of accepting refugees to open their hearts and their homes, to walk the walk and not only talk, and then let others take over. I believe this would be very appropriate and in the so-called Canadian spirit.

As a footnote, the minister and MPs would be mostly in Ottawa so there would be room in their dwellings.

SHEILA REYNOLDS

A Surrey man who police were concerned was plot-ting to murder his ex-wife’s boyfriend has lost a bid to overturn his conviction for possessing a loaded, prohib-ited firearm .

Glenn Harley Tetsuji Sheck was arrested in November 2010 outside a restaurant in Newton.

RCMP had him under surveillance at the time to determine if information they had about him planning to kill his ex’s boyfriend was true.

The boyfriend had been shot six times outside his home in June 2010 and survived.

On Nov. 4, 2010, police

entered Earl’s Restaurant for a “licensed premise check walkthrough,” speaking to patrons. Sheck was sitting in a booth alone and officers noticed he looked panicked when they walked in.

They also saw him put something under his but-tocks, which turned out was his man purse.

He also took his driver’s li-cence out of the bag and had it at the ready when officers asked.

As police checked Sheck’s ID, he didn’t speak, and continued to eat his chicken wings, his hands shaking.

Police asked him to go outside, where they searched his satchel and found a 9-mm semi-au-tomatic Glock handgun. Th ey placed him under arrest.

A judge found Sheck guilty in May 2012.

His appeal, which was heard in the Court of Appeal for B.C. in Vancouver in September, focused on the legality of his detention and search by police.

He argued the police inves-tigation was a sham, sparked by a pretend ID check at the restaurant and that his Char-ter rights were violated and his gun shouldn’t have been admitted as evidence.

But three Appeal Court judges sided with the trial judge, who found police had a “subjective belief,” not just a suspicion, that Sheck had a firearm with him and the public and police were at risk.

“The ‘ruse’ simply allowed the police to escort Mr. Sheck safely out of the Earl’s Restaurant; it was not the basis for the detention,” wrote Chief Justice Robert Bauman in the Nov. 20 deci-sion. “Rather… the totality of the circumstances founded a legitimate investigative detention.”

Justices Edward Chiasson and Sunni Stromberg-Stein were in agreement.

Sheck received an 18-month sentence in Au-gust 2014.

Several Surrey police offi cers were given awards of valour at a provincial ceremony this week.

Th e award of valour is the highest honour for police offi cers in B.C.

Among the recipients are:• Surrey RCMP Const.

Michael Scoretz, who placed himself at personal risk while dealing with a dis-traught and aggressive male armed with a knife.

• Surrey RCMP Supt. Manny Mann, Sgt. Sodi Dhillon (cur-rently with Federal Serious and Organized Crime), Sgt. Michael Kim (Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit), Sgt. Stephen Lee and three offi cers whose names were withheld for displaying exceptional performance and dedication during a major investigation involving a con-spiracy to murder key mem-bers of a criminal organization (Project E- Patroon).

• Surrey RCMP Cpl. Anne-Marie Lavallee, Const. Th omas Flynn and Const. Ran-jit Seehra, who separated an aggressive male with a knife from a child hostage.

• Const. Andrew Barr (currently with Hope detach-ment), who placed himself at

personal risk to extinguish a burning motorcycle and save the life of the severely injured rider.

Once a year, British Colum-bia awards those police offi cers whose remarkable work and brave actions enhance the safety of their communities.

At B.C.’s 35th annual Police Honours Night, Lt.- Gov. Judith Guichon and Minister of Justice Suzanne Anton pre-sented awards to 66 outstand-ing offi cers.

In all, 22 offi cers received the award of valour. Th ese offi cers made a decision to place them-selves at substantial personal risk to save others. Forty-four offi cers were awarded meritori-ous service honours, which rec-ognize exemplary performance that exceeds expectations.

BLACK PRESS

Two Delta Police offi cers have been rec-ognized for excellence by the B.C. Municipal Police Chiefs for their work on traffi c safety after a series of dra-matic truck rollovers.

After fi ve separate truck rollovers last

year at Highway 17 and Highway 91, Delta Police Constables John Merryman and Mike Whitely were called in to examine the exact causes.

After conducting in-depth analysis, they determined the acci-dents were a result of truck speed and road design.

After consulting with the Ministry of Transportation, Delta Engineering and the Commercial Vehi-cle Safety and Enforce-

ment Branch, they proposed potential fi xes to the problems.

Since those alter-ations have been im-plemented, there have been no truck rollovers near that intersection.

“Th is is anoth-er example of our offi cers’ commitment to public safety,” said Delta Chief Const. Neil Dubord. “Const. Merryman and Const. Whiteley were not satisfi ed with simply investigating each col-lision separately.  Th ey identifi ed root causes and made positive change happen.”

▶ CRASHES WERE COMMON AT HWYS. 17 AND 91 UNTIL CHANGES MADE

Th ree young people have been arrested after a stabbing over the weekend outside a Delta high school.

On Saturday, just after 11 p.m., police were called to Burnsview Secondary after re-

ports of an altercation behind the school in the 7600-block of 112 Street.

When police arrived, they found an 18-year-old male suff ering from signifi cant, multiple stab wounds.

He was taken to hospital in critical condition.

Delta Police offi cers arrested three male suspects under the age of 18 who were attempting to fl ee the area. 

Th e suspects are in custody and under the provisions of the Youth Criminal Justice

Act, their names will not be re-leased publicly. Th ey are facing charges of aggravated assault.

Investigators are confi dent there is no connection be-tween the fi ght and the school.

The victim and the sus-pects are known to each oth-er and police say it appears to be an isolated incident – a disagreement between teenagers that escalated to an extreme level.

Th e victim remains in hospital in critical but stable condition.

A man is in hospital after being stabbed in Whalley over the weekend.

On Sunday, at about 1:35 a.m., police were called to the Flamingo Hotel at 10768 King George Blvd. after reports of a fi ght in the pub.

During the confron-tation, one man was stabbed in the abdo-men.

RCMP arrived and found the injured man, but the suspect or suspects had fl ed from the pub.

Th e injured male was transported to hospital by ambulance in seri-ous condition.

Police are looking for possibly two suspects involved in the alter-cation. One of them is described as a white male, approximately 30 years of age, possibly with a beard.

Surrey Mounties are seeking the public’s assistance and asking anyone who may have witnessed the alterca-tion inside the pub, or observed the suspect males fl eeing the scene, to call Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

Woman hurt after smashing car into a tree

A woman was taken to hospital Friday morning after her BMW crashed into a tree in North Surrey.

At just after 9 a.m. on Nov. 20, emergency crews responded to the single-vehicle accident near 115 Avenue and 138 Street.

Th ey arrived to fi nd the vehicle smashed into a tree with a wom-an inside.

Firefi ghters worked for almost an hour to free her.

Paramedics then rushed her to Royal Columbian Hospital with multiple injuries. RCMP are investigat-ing the cause. Roads in the area were slippery at the time of the incident.

Fleeing suspect locks down schools

Two Surrey schools were locked down tem-porarily last week while police chased a suspect through Newton.

On Th ursday, Nov. 19 at about noon, police stopped a man who was acting suspiciously. When approached, he gave them a fake name and ran.

Surrey RCMP alerted the school district, which as a precaution locked down Frank Hurt Secondary at 13940 77 Ave and Bear Creek Elementary at 13780 80 Ave.

RCMP eventually caught up with the suspect, who was want-ed on an outstanding breach of conditions, and the schools were re-opened at about 12:40 p.m.

TRACY HOLMES

Ashley Macdonald knows her story may be diffi cult for people to hear or under-stand. At rock bottom, she was cutting herself on a daily basis to cope with her anxiety.

But there’s a reason she’s sharing the details.

“I just want to get my voice heard and I want to spread some hope for other people, stop the stigma,” Macdonald said. “By standing up there and talking about it… that breaks that stigma.”

Macdonald, a White Rock resident, got involved with a 60-plus member local action team of the Child and Youth Mental Health and Substance Use Collaborative shortly after it formed in May, and shared her story at an event Nov. 17 at White Rock Elementary focused on youth and mental illness.

A speaker series – a suicide-prevention forum was held at Elgin Park Secondary in August and a resource night took place Nov. 25 at Earl Marriott – was among the team’s eff orts to address gaps in timely, co-ordinated access to mental-health ser-vices for children and youth.

At 19, Macdonald knows the need fi rst-hand.

She started experiencing anxiety when she was in Grade 7, but it hit hardest in Grade 10, triggering an eating disorder and pattern of self-harm that landed her in and out of hospital – mostly in – for two years.

In school, it was almost routine for Mac-donald to be removed from class for her behaviour; behaviour she says was a cry for help that authority fi gures didn’t recognize or know how to deal with.

Cutting, she says, was a blatant expres-sion of, and distraction from, the pain she felt inside.

According to the Canadian Mental Health Association, such self-injury is more common during teenage years and among females. Th ose who self-harm are not typ-ically trying to end their life, but to cope with diffi cult or overwhelming thoughts.

While Macdonald felt alone in her strug-gle, the reality is she’s far from it.

Dr. Rummy Dosanjh said statistics show anxiety disorders aff ect 22.7 per cent of youth locally.

“Th at’s pretty signifi cant. If we don’t address it and we don’t equip people with

the right necessary tools in order to rec-ognize it… we’re really failing them,” the action-team physician said. “Th ese kids are having a really hard, crippling time.”

While a degree of anxiety is normal, it becomes a problem when it interrupts daily routine, or gets in the way of learn-ing, Dosanjh said. Signs can include an abrupt change in behaviour, withdrawal from activities, panic attacks and even physical pain.

School counsellors are reporting a high number of absences that can be linked to anxiety in students, added Kay Abelson, program co-ordinator of the White Rock-South Surrey Division of Family Practice.

“Th at number is growing daily. It’s really quite scary,” she said.

Parent Victoria Keddis said recognizing her now-adult son’s anxiety was instru-mental in learning how to best live with it, both for him and as a family. From there, it was about developing strategies.

“As a parent when he was young, I always thought he was just a sensitive kid,” Keddis said.

Keddis said one mistake she made was not making her son do things that made

him uncomfortable. Th at avoidance helped his anxiety grow because it made his world smaller, she said.

“Most people don’t realize and don’t know what it is,” Keddis said of the disorder. “So many places in life, we’re told our kids are misbe-having. We’re not looking at (health) as an answer, we’re looking to be better parents.”

Macdonald said little things could have made a huge diff erence for her at school – for example, instead of being “left alone with my demons” when

pulled from class, if someone had simply asked her what she needed.

“I’m a big sucker… for being loved, just feeling cared about,” she said, noting that if, during a panic attack, someone had said

‘let’s just breathe for now,’ that would’ve helped a lot.”

White Rock Elementary principal Fran Fagan said recognizing that anxiety can be an issue at any age is an important part of steps being taken at her school.

Eff orts at Fagan’s school now include encouraging parents to walk at least part way to school with their child, to create a time for connecting; teaching deep-belly breathing; and starting the day with a moment of quiet.

Students are also taught that the princi-pal and vice-principal’s offi ce is a safe place, Fagan said, pointing to books, stuffi es and juice that she keeps on hand to soothe children who come to her.

“I’ve had children come in, end up under my desk,” she said. “I leave them until they are ready.”

Macdonald described the steps as “abso-lutely amazing” – polar opposite to what she experienced, but an encouraging sign.

With an eye on a career in medicine, she wants others to know there is hope.

“I will always be anxious about things for the rest of my life, but I’m learning how to handle that. It doesn’t define me,” she said.

Waiting up to 36 weeks for an MRI scan is better than in some provinces, but it’s still too long for B.C. patients - and that wait should begin to get shorter by the new year.

Premier Christy Clark and Health Minister Terry Lake announced Nov. 18 that with economic numbers improving in the province, funds to extend operating hours for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) ma-chines in hospitals and clinics.

Th e extra scans should start to show up by the end of the year, and once the increase reaches $20 million a year in 2019, there should be 45 per cent more procedures done than the current rate.

Lake said additional evening and weekend operating hours should be in eff ect in some regions before Christ-mas. Where private clinics are available, the health authorities may contract work while they’re recruiting more specialists for hospitals. 

Dr. Stuart Silver,

acting medical director for medical imaging at Island Health, said MRI is used for conditions including joint aches and pains to heart conditions to brain tumours.

“Th e information we get can be a game changer in many cases,” Silver said. “We have patients who are booked for surgery who have an MRI, and the MRI suggests that they shouldn’t have surgery. Conversely we

have people where sur-gery is not considered, and we do the MRI and realize that that is the way to go.”

Lake said he wishes the ministry had acted sooner on what has been a long-standing concern of doctors and health authorities.

“Th e radiologists have certainly been letting us know about it,” he said.

In October, Black Press reported the average wait for

low-priority MRIs in the Fraser Health region was seven months as of August, and 10 per cent of those patients waited at least 15 months for their MRIs.

MRI appointment notifications from Fraser Health go out with prominent reminders to note the year of the appoint-ment because some patients have mis-takenly shown up 12 months too soon.

B.C. has been asked to take in 3,500 refugees from civil war and terrorist attacks in Syria and Iraq and is ready to do so, Premier Christy Clark says.

“Th e federal govern-ment has asked us to welcome 3,500 refu-gees as part of this, and we’ve said yes, we think we can do that,” Clark said last week. “We’ve set a million dollars aside and the federal government has also said they’re going to restore the resettlement funding that was cut not that long ago.

“We are going to fund their children when they go to school, of course, and support them in fi nding the counselling services, the housing and general settlement services that they need.”

It’s expected that Surrey will take in about one-third of refugees settling in B.C.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has stuck to his election commit-ment to bring 25,000 refugees into

Canada by the end of December. But as logistical issues and security concerns have arisen, the deadline may be altered.

In his mandate letter to Immi-gration Minister John McCallum,

Trudeau said a top priority is to “lead gov-ernment-wide eff orts to resettle 25,000 refugees from Syria in the coming months.”

Clark said the num-ber, timing and security screening of refugee claimants is up to Ot-tawa.

“I accept their assur-ances that they can do a very rigorous screening process for everyone that we’re welcoming into the country in the time that they’ve set out for it,” Clark said.

“Our job in British Columbia is to welcome them, and to make sure that we as communities and a province do everything that we can to make sure that they get the best possible start, so those refu-gees can start contributing to our society and be a part of our society, because that’s what they want. And that’s what we need.”

TRACY HOLMES

After experiencing the chaos of the terror attacks in Paris nearly two weeks ago, Lina Caschetto speaks of the “city of love” with fondness.

“It’s so beautiful, it has so much life,” Caschetto said last week from her home in the French capital.

“It was the place for me that was calling my name.”

A graduate of Sur-rey’s Earl Marriott Secondary, Caschetto, 31, moved to Paris about 18 months ago to pursue a career in culinary arts. She was at work as head chef at Pas de Loup – a restau-rant around the corner from the Bataclan – on Nov. 13, when gunmen entered the packed concert hall just before 10 p.m. and opened fi re.

Eighty-nine of the

130 people who died that night in Paris were killed in the Bataclan.

Caschetto, and the 60 or so diners in the Pas de Loup, learned something terribly wrong was happening when a friend, his arms covered in blood, rushed in, yelling at people to get back – that he had escaped from the Bataclan and there were men with machine guns.

In a letter to family and friends assuring them she was okay, Caschetto described the shock and chaos; how the blood on her friend’s arms was not his own.

“We were stunned,” she wrote. “People

didn’t know what to do. Some sat still, some stumbled over their chairs and each other, others tried to hide themselves under the tables.”

Caschetto recalled pushing people towards the back of the restaurant, seeing people in the street “running in every di-rection” and sitting be-hind the metal curtain that shuttered Pas de Loup from the outside, not knowing if it would keep them safe.

“We sat behind our ‘iron curtain’ and we waited,” she wrote. “If someone decided to shoot through it, it would have given us minimal protection

but its existence made us feel as if we were in relative safety.

“From there all we could do was wait.”

In a telephone inter-view with Black Press, Caschetto described what happened as “horrible” and beyond comprehension.

“So many questions about how and why something like that could ever happen, anywhere,” she said.

“Th ings just feel diff erent. Th ey feel heavy, there’s defi nite-ly a sense of unease. We’re trying to sort of fi gure out how to put one foot in front of the other again.”

Caschetto said she was surprised that her letter – posted online Nov. 17 by her stepfather – re-ceived media attention. She, after all, was not injured in the attacks, nor does she know anyone who was directly aff ected. She just felt the need to write about it, to “promote an idea of love, an idea of good energy moving for-ward.”

“One thing is certain,

this is a call for help,” Caschetto concludes in the letter. “Th ere are many people in this world who feel unloved and unvalued. I know we can’t individually care for them all, but we need to show those around us that they are wanted.”

Getting back to life “isn’t simple”, she said, but “we have to just play it day by day.”

“In some ways, I think sometimes when you experience some-thing in such a way, I think it’s hard to forget it ever happened. At the end of the day, we all need to fi gure out how to move forward.

“All we can do is keep living and moving

forward,” she said. “Stopping to visit my favourite cafe in the morning isn’t going to change what happened. So we continue to sit and have our coff ee and spend time with the people (we) care about. Th is is part of how we will heal.”

White Rock senior Ian Routledge – who was in Paris when the massacre occurred – said it’s important to show support for the Parisians.

He said he and his wife, Jan, walked through the streets the next day and met people who said they would not allow the ac-tions of these cowards to interfere with their

lives.“I’ve never been any-

where near anything as horrendous as that,” Routledge said. “It was devastating and you could just see it in ev-erybody’s eyes. I want to go back and support those people, they de-serve to be supported.”

Routledge added he has been shocked to hear people oppose Canada taking in Syrian refugees based on “fearfulness and prejudices” after the Paris attacks.

“Th e perpetrators of this heinous act were mostly Belgian and French,” he noted. “Th ey certainly were not refugees.”

I love the idea of continuing colour into the winter months using outside porch pots.

What makes a great outdoor winter pot? It is a beautifully assembled collection of hardy evergreen and deciduous plants that really pop in winter – or it could be an arrangement of unique cut branches artistically displayed in an attractive con-

tainer.In addition to

looking amaz-ing, it needs to withstand the abuse of winter weather (with some protection in the worst conditions) and still look great.

Th is whole idea of winter pots started about 10 years ago in indepen-dent garden stores and has

blossomed into a mainstream winter culture.

Box stores now carry them and for the most part, they look reasonably good, but I consid-er creating winter containers an art form and like all great containers, no matter the time of the year, they should be so much more than just okay. I would like to see them person-alized and brought to a much higher level.

Porch pots may be the only

“garden” you have in winter, so let’s make them spectacular. I think Zone 5 would be the target for cold hardiness, which should include about 80 per cent of the Canadian popula-tion.

As with most things in life, you need to have a strategy for success. Winter presents a very diff erent environment than the one enjoyed during the warm days of spring and summer, so a few key issues need to be addressed.

First is the container. You need a sturdy, suitable-sized (45-60 centimeters / 18-24”) container to withstand winter winds and driving rain or snow.

Th e soil needs to be very open and porous, and even if you use a high porosity mix, like Sunshine #4 or ProMix HP, it’s important to add about one-third fi ne fi r or hemlock bark

mulch or sawdust to get the level of porosity you need. In winter, roots survive far better in very well-drained mixes. Excess moisture can damage roots as it freezes.

Just the oppo-site is true when using cut branch-es.

To keep the stems fresh and in place, you need heavy wet soil, and

surprisingly, most potting soils, if saturated with moisture, are great. Th e weight of wet soil will also keep the pot steady in blustery weather.

When creating a container of cut greens, you need a mix of greens that will withstand winter cold and not desiccate in windy conditions. Pine is, by far, the best. Both the soft white pine (Pinus strobus) and scotch pine (Pinus sylvestris), blue spruce (Picea glauca) and noble and silver fi r (Abies no-bilis), when cut in late October and November, should last until the weather warms up in spring.

Soft-textured cedar (Th uja plicata) and weeping hemlock (Tsuga canadensis) are nice

looking, but they are more susceptible to drying out. Th e colour, shape, texture and fragrance of these cut boughs are delightful. Misting them with water occasionally or leaving them out in winter rains will help keep their moisture content at an optimum level.

Once you arrange the greens into the style you love, the next step should be layer-ing in colourful stems of shrub dogwoods. I particularly love the vibrant red stems of Cornus ‘Sibirica’ , the yellows of C. ‘Flavi-ramea’ and the yellow and orange stems of C. ‘Midwinter Fire’. Arranged among the greens, they jump out. Th e pure white stems of birch, especial-ly ones with nicely textured bark, are fabulous as well. Not to be outdone, the curly willows (Salix ‘Tortuosa’) especially the golden and red stemmed varieties, add a whole new dimension of twists and curls that play with your eyes.

Th is is where artistry brings your arrange-ments to life – a few focal points work won-ders. Large colourful cones, like the long gently curved cones of white pine (Pinus stro-bus), naturally frosted with hardened sap, are among the best.

Th e long thin cones of norway spruce (Picea abies) are nice to work with too. Th ere are many pine cones that look attractive, like P. ponderosa or its larger cousin P. arizo-nica, and if you simply touch the tips of each cone with some white latex paint, it creates that fantastic ‘fresh snow’ look.

Layering in some co-lourful berries adds an-other level of richness to your arrangements. Perhaps the very best are the berries of Ilex verticillata or those of deciduous holly. Th ese also make wonderful zone 4 garden plants. Th eir vibrant red and now gold berries will make your arrange-ments rock.

If you’d like to bling up your arrangements, and I certainly do, in-corporate some larger glass stem balls. I like to use muted tones for a very classy look.

Well-made artifi cial birds, perched on a few twigs, fi t in nicely but avoid any cheesy stuff . Keep your arrange-ments looking very elegant.

In zone 6 and higher, a tropical look is very much ‘in’. To create this look, use native greens and then fi ll in with stems of ever-green magnolia. Th eir big rich shiny green leaves and brown undersides add a whole diff erent perspec-tive. Th ese leaves will tolerate light frosts, and they are unique and fun. Large proteas, from Australia and oth-er southern countries, have an amazing cold tolerance and are truly eye-popping as focal points. Exotic dried tropical cones, seed pods and dried foliage add quite a new di-mension for an elegant look and a nice tropical Christmas touch.

If you love creating living arrangements, the many new compact conifers and broad-leaved plants, of all shapes and sizes, off er possibilities we’ve nev-er had before. Tall thin yews (Taxus), colum-nar boxwood (Buxus ‘Graham Blandy’) and Japanese holly (Ilex ‘Sky Pencil’) are just a few of the uprights that add vertical lift. Fillers, like the orange fl uff y Th uja ‘Rheingold’ and T. ‘Golden Tuff et’, add texture and focal points.

Spill-overs, such as the compact ‘Gold Th read’ cypress, Cha-maecyparis pisifera ‘Filifera Aurea’, and the wonderful new ev-ergreen carex grasses, like the new ‘EverCol-or’ and ‘Everillo’, the rich dark shiny C.E. ‘Everlime’ and the old standby C. ‘Evergold’, just fi nish things nicely. All of these will tolerate zone 6 and higher.

You don’t absolutely need one, but a bow of sinamay looks rather charming spilling over and their tails trailing in among the greens, again playing nicely with your eyes. Adding clear mini-lights or LED lights will make all your porch pots, both cut greens and living planters, really sparkle.

I get excited about these amazing cre-ations that we can enjoy for Christmas.

BLACK PRESS

Winter is coming to British Columbia, and as tempera-tures across the province start to drop, the BC SPCA is encouraging people who are thinking about adopting a furry family member to consider cats, and turn brrrs into purrs during its current adoption event.

Until Nov. 30, all adult cat adoption fees are 50

per cent off. Th e half-price promotion

is presented by Hill’s Science Diet.

Homeless cats are a major issue in B.C., often suff ering from injury, illness, predator attacks and frostbite. Illegal abandonment and animals who aren’t spayed or neu-tered contribute to the prob-lem, as well as cats without permanent identifi cation like a microchip or a tattoo, who are never reunited with their guardians.

Th e adoption fee includes vaccinations, spaying or neutering, permanent ID, any necessary medical care,

and internal and external parasite treatment.

Normal adoption coun-selling and matching takes place to ensure animals go to a good home, and Petsecure provides six weeks of free pet insurance.

All cats are micro-chipped, and for only $12 annually or a $45 lifetime fee, the animal will be registered in the prov-incewide BC Pet Registry, bcpetregistry.ca, to help ensure if a pet is lost, it can be found and reunited with its family.

Visit spca.bc.ca for more information.

NICK GREENIZAN

Th e fi rst thing you notice is the space, or lack thereof.

At REC For Kids – a non-profi t, volunteer-run organization in Newton that collects and refurbishes bikes and sports equipment, then distributes it to children – nearly every inch of avail-able real estate is piled high with sports equipment.

In what used to be the living room of the old, City of Surrey-owned house near Unwin Park, bikes – all fi xed up and ready for new owners – stand in a line, ready for delivery. Next to the bikes, the dining room is fi lled with shelf upon shelf of gen-tly-used running shoes; the kitchen, meanwhile contains bags of bike helmets, and each of the home’s spare rooms are jammed full of

other donated gear, from fi g-ure skates and basketballs to baseball bats, gloves, hockey socks and soccer cleats.

And then there’s the base-ment, which smells strongly of rubber – courtesy of the hundreds of bike tires and tubing that hang on the walls – and has been trans-formed into a bicycle repair shop that would rival any professional outfi t.

Everything in the house – and the building itself – has been donated to the or-ganization, while some of the bikes, originally either stolen or lost, come from the RCMP once they go unclaimed.

Th roughout the house, on what little available wall space is left, are hand-writ-

ten posters which trumpet the organization’s mission statement.

“Th e vision is right there on the wall – it says ‘every child in need will have the sports and recreational equipment required to stay healthy, be active and have fun,” said Ian Lagasse, one of REC’s directors.

REC – which stands for Re-cycled Equipment and Cycles

– has been oper-ating since 2007, and was started by members of local rotary clubs, chiefl y the Rotary Club of White Rock.

Th e organi-zation collects donated bikes

and other sports gear, cleans them up, and then delivers the goods to youngsters throughout Surrey who’ve been referred to them through schools, the RCMP and a variety of social ser-

vices. Th e program – modeled

after a similar one in Edmon-ton – aims to get children involved in sports at the grassroots level, and volun-teers are just as happy to see a young recipient shooting hoops in a driveway with friends as they are to hear of them registered in an offi cial sports league.

“And giving them a bicycle not only gets them out riding but it also helps these kids get to and from their activ-ities. We give them some mobility,” said Don Jones, another director, adding that REC has given away more than 340 bikes this year alone.

Refugee families – like the many expected to arrive soon from Syria – are among REC’s many clients, Lagasse said, adding that it’s especially re-warding to help them adjust to a new country.

RICK KUPCHUK

Th e Central City Breakers Football Club (CCB) – and its 2,800 players – is no longer facing disci-plinary action from youth soccer’s governing bodies.

CCB had been suspended by both the South District Girls Soccer Association (SDGSA), which governs female youth soccer in Surrey and Delta, and the Surrey Metro Soccer Association (SMSA) in late July. After meeting with both youth groups in early August, CCB was permitted to play in local tournaments and leagues while it addressed the concerns raised.

Last week, the suspension was unconditionally lifted.

“I am glad that the situation took care of itself,” said CCB Executive Director Garry Sangha in a statement. “But I would like to apologize to every single player of the club who might have been aff ect-ed in any negative way in what was a dispute among adults.”

Th e suspensions were fi rst levied in late July by the two district associations in response to allega-tions raised by a small group of parents that Central City “made attempts to manipulate” the dates of its annual general meeting and were involved in the “operation of a non-sanctioned spring/summer league.”

Working with the SCGSA, CCB agreed to re-write sections of its constitution and conduct new elections for its executive positions. In return, the club was permitted to play in local Labour Day tournaments, and begin league play a week later as scheduled. Playing outside the Metro Vancouver area was not allowed.

“Th ere were a few teams that really suff ered,” said CCB President Dr. Harj Dhaliwal. “Neither the BCSA or the districts would sanction them to play out of town. So some teams which were registered in tour-naments in the United States lost their entry fees.”

Allegations of funding a unsanctioned league were without merit, Dhaliwal argued, conceding that the club was allowing players to play in unsanctioned soccer in the spring/summer season but adding everything was done above board.

“Th ey made it look like CCB was the only one doing this,” said Dhaliwal. “We took our model from the Guildford Athletic Club. Players can sign up for both winter and spring/summer soccer at the same time.

“CCB isn’t part of the spring/summer league, so we partnered with another club and forwarded them the registration money. It was simply a fl ow-through.”

To address the concern of manipulating the dates of its annual general meeting (AGM) – it was alleged the 2015 AGM was July 29, while CCB bylaws called for an AGM to be held by June 30 of each year – the entire CCB executive resigned at the suggestion of the SDGSA.

A new election was held at a special general meet-ing last month, with 10 of the 12 former executive members acclaimed to their former positions.

“It’s fair to say you can take any constitution and interpret it in multiple ways,” said Dhaliwal. “And there was a small group looking to take power, they didn’t like the way things were being done.

“Really, there was no wrong-doing by our club. And ultimately, cooler heads prevailed.”

“Th ey come here literally with nothing, and to one of those children, a bike isn’t just a means of convey-ance – not just a way to get around – but it’s

something that allows them to be seen by their peers as being part of the group,” he said.

Th e program was the brainchild of Derek Lucas, a White Rock rotarian who died in

2013. Both Lagasse and Jones are quick to credit Lucas’ dogged determination – es-pecially in the early days – for getting the organization off the ground.

“Some of our early

meetings, it was an uphill battle. I don’t know how many times we went to Derek and said… ‘forget it, Derek. It was a good idea, but it’s not gonna fl y. We can’t make it go.’

“But he would not

take no for an answer. He just would not accept that this wasn’t going to work.”

Lucas’s wife, Donna, is a current director and volunteer, and laughs when she recalls how her husband came

up with the idea for the program.

“Our kids grew up and when they were going off to university, he looked around the garage and said, ‘Hey, what about all this sports stuff ?’

“We laid it all out on the front lawn but nobody picked any of it up – bikes, baseball gloves, baseball bats, all of it. Derek didn’t want to take it all to the dump, so he packed it all up and drove around looking for kids to give it to. He just drove around, handing stuff out.

“I think that was his motivation, to tell you the truth – to clean out the garage.”

Th ough Donna, Lagasse and Jones admit REC for Kids often feels like a full-time job – all three are retired, as are many, but not all, of their fellow volunteers – Donna said has a simple answer when asked why all the work is worth it.

“What it is, is the look on the kids faces when you give them their bike, or their shoes or skates,” she said.

Th ere was one face – one little girl – who all three remember, specifi cally.

A few years ago, a single mother came to REC after being re-ferred there by a social service. Her daughter, about to turn fi ve, had never had a bike be-fore, but was nervous about entering the house.

“Her mother said, ‘You’d better come in, because we might be able to get you a bike,’” Donna recalled.

“Th en the girl said she didn’t want just any bike, she wanted a special bike, like one she’d had a dream about.”

Th e perfect bike, the little girl explained, was to be white and pink with fl owers on it, and it needed a basket, streamers and a bell.

“And as she’s saying all this, I look over at the bike we have for her, and it’s exactly like the one she’d de-scribed,” Donna con-tinued. “She ran in and said ‘Th at’s the bike from my dream!’ She jumped up and down, she couldn’t believe it. We all had tears in our eyes, and her mother just burst into tears. She said she never would’ve been able to aff ord that bike.

“’You don’t know how much this means to me,’ she said.”

Eagles still struggling to earn a win

NICK GREENIZAN

A win will have to wait.

Th e Surrey Eagles’ on-ice woes continued last weekend, as the struggling BC Hockey League team dropped an 8-0 decision to the Wenatchee Wild Sun-day evening at South Surrey Arena.

Th e loss was the 12th in a row for the Eagles, whose losing streak has now extended beyond a month; the team’s last victory came Oct. 20 against Langley.

Th e losses have dropped the Birds to the bottom of the BCHL’s Mainland Divi-sion standings with a 4-21 win-loss record.

Surrey is eight points back of the fi fth-place Prince George Spruce Kings, and trail the Coquitlam Express by 16 points. Coquitlam currently occupies the fi nal playoff position in the Mainland Division.

Defence has been spotty at best for Surrey this season – they’ve given up 126 goals against, which is worst in the league – and while they gave

up another eight against the Wild Sun-day, off ence was also a problem.

Th e Eagles man-aged just 18 shots on Wenatchee netmind-er Chase Perry, who recorded his third shut-out of the season.

Forbes Ploszaj was between the pipes for the Eagles, and was peppered with 41 shots on goal from the Wild, who were making their fi rst-ever regular-sea-son appearance at South Surrey Arena.

Th e visitors jumped out to a lead early, scoring two fi rst-period goals just fi ve seconds apart. In the third, the Wild scored three more – one at fi ve-on-fi ve, one shorthanded and one with the man-ad-vantage – and did the same in the third period.

August Von Ungern led the attack with two goals and an assist for Wenatchee, who jumped into fi rst place in the Mainland Divi-sion with the win.

Surrey travelled a few hours up the high-way for a game today (Wednesday) against the Merritt Centenni-als, and return home to South Surrey Arena Friday for a home game against the West Kelowna Warriors.

JEFF NAGEL

B.C. oil refi nery proponent David Black says his $22-billion proposal won’t die with the apparently thwarted Northern Gateway pipeline – he aims to bring oil sands bitumen across northern B.C. by train instead.

Th e Victoria businessman, who is majority owner of Black Press and this newspaper, spoke Wednesday at a Rotary Club meeting in South Surrey.

Black’s Kitimat Clean proposal calls for a refi nery between Terrace and Kitimat that would process bitumen into gaso-line, diesel and other refi ned fuels for Asian markets.

He said the federal Liberal govern-ment’s move to formally ban crude oil tankers from B.C.’s north coast means the Northern Gateway pipeline plan is “pretty much dead,” but that shouldn’t block tanker exports of refi ned fuel, which Black said would be less damaging than a spill of crude or bitumen at sea.

Black said his plan to carry oil by rail will be far safer than the crude oil trains that have been vulnerable to fi ery disas-ters elsewhere.

He said he’s in talks with CN Rail to load rail cars with undiluted bitumen, which would be much thicker – virtually solid – compared to the diluted bitumen that moves through pipelines or the light oil that’s often carried by train.

Th e bitumen would be heated at the

beginning and end of each rail trip to make it fl ow for loading and unloading from tanker cars. Black argues it would be unlikely to leak or burn if a train derailed.

“It’s safer and way easier,” he said, estimating six trains a day would run every four hours.

Black continues to pursue environ-mental approvals, and believes that with green lights from regulators and fi rst nations, oil shippers and fi nanciers will come on board.

Local cyber security advocate Anna Crosland has been named an outstanding Canadian – student, teacher or program (kindergarten to Grade 12) – as part of the inaugural TELUS WISE Outstanding Canadian Awards, which cel-ebrates individuals, programs or organizations that have made a signifi cant impact towards keeping Canadians safer online.

In addition to being recognized by TELUS, Crosland has been awarded $2,000 to help further her Internet and smartphone safety initiatives.

Crosland, one of fi ve winners from across the country, is a teacher and librarian at Georges Vanier Elementary School, which has a high at-risk student population.

Crosland believes Internet safety is not a topic to be taught in isolation and encourages stu-dents to use personal devices for learning, incor-porating Internet and smartphone safety into her digital lessons while encouraging parents to also engage with their children on the topic.

TELUS WISE is provides free education and resources about online safety and security for Canadian families.

But his is not the only such proposal.Pacifi c Future Energy, led by a Mexican con-

glomerate, initially tried to buy Black out and has since proposed a similar refi nery with the same technology. Its backers include SNC Lavalin and prominent aboriginal advisors.

Pacifi c Future initially proposed a site in Prince Rupert, but Black said that fi rm is trying to strike a deal with the Kitselas band for the same site Kitimat Clean had chosen.

Th ere are other potential sites with diff erent First Nations, he said, but they’re less suitable.

Black also criticized the provincial government’s focus on liquefi ed natural gas (LNG) projects.

He said his refi nery would generate more permanent jobs and taxes for governments than even an optimistic number of LNG plants.

“Government really dove at this,” he said, adding the province “rolled over” in guaranteeing generous tax treatment to get the industry on board, leaving little future revenue to govern-ment.

Too many LNG plants are already being built in Australia and the U.S., he said, while Japan’s shift back towards nuclear power will cut demand.

“I just don’t think there’s much chance,” Black said. “Th e LNG dream is now fading.”

Black is not concerned that low oil prices will also doom his refi nery dream.

He said he believes low prices as well as the U.S. rejection of the Keystone XL pipeline to the U.S. Gulf Coast will make his option for reaching lucrative Pacifi c markets increasingly attractive to oil fi rms grappling with narrow-ing margins, particularly in Alberta’s oil sands.

Black maintains a refi nery can’t be built in Alberta itself because of opposition from multi-

national oil fi rms that own Texas refi neries, and because the large prefabricated modules that can be assembled on the B.C. coast can’t be hauled inland.

His proposal would use an unusual technology – adding $5 billion to the costs – that slashes the carbon emissions to less than one-third of a conventional refi nery.

Black argues the “greenest refi nery in the world” would largely off set the higher emissions of oil sands bitumen and forge a political solution for Canada’s energy policy makers.

“It cleans the whole industry up,” Black said. “We’re not in the dirty oil business anymore. We get huge value add. And it takes away the issue of a heavy oil spill at sea.”

MADDOCKS,Thomas Keith

Thomas Keith Maddocks, 85, passed away peacefully at Langley Memorial on Tuesday, November 17, 2015. He is survived by Yvonne, his loving wife of 60 years; his 3 children, Jane (Doug) Morris, Reg (Lynda) and Kathy (Steve) DuMont; 8 grandchildren, 4 great - grandchildren; his sister, Joyce (Courtney) Foster; brother, Harry and numerous nieces and nephews. Keith was born in Saskatoon, Sask. on July 24, 1930.

At the age of 8, Keith moved with his family to Richmond, B.C. where he, along with his 6 brothers and two sisters, was raised on Twin Hollies Farm. In 1955 he married Yvonne and soon after bought a farm (Maddocks Farms) in Cloverdale, where he shared his love of farming with her. In August they celebrated 60 years on their farm. Keith was a very successful farmer, earning numerous farming awards and holding positions with the Surrey Dyking Commission and the BC Vegetable and Cloverdale Lettuce Co-ops.

While Keith was very proud of his children, he had an extraordinary and deep love and pride for all of his grandchildren. “Papa” was a signifi cant part of all of their lives and has had a great impact on each of them. A piece of him will continue to live in each and every one of them. He will be truly missed by all of us.

A Memorial Service will be held at 10:30 am on Monday, November 30, 2015 at Christ the Redeemer Anglican Church, 16613 Bell Road, Surrey, B.C. In lieu of fl owers, donations can be made to the local charity of your choice.
