Challenges include crime and transit4 The Cloverdale Reporter Thursday, June 26, 2014

In 2005, she took a leave of absence to run for city council and won a seat, which she’s kept.

She says as mayor, she would bring “expe-rience, steadfastness, team building and cour-age” to the table.

“It takes a lot of cour-age to follow in the foot-steps of Dianne Watts,” Hepner says of the popular mayor who re-cently said she wouldn’t run for the centre chair this fall.

Hepner says that un-der Watts’ leadership,

the city has taken some “enormous strides.”

But there’s more that can be done, Hepner says.

She wants to focus on economic development and continue working to establish one job per Surrey resident.

She wants to turn the King George Boulevard, between 80 and 64 Av-enues, into a “Creative Corridor,” inviting all types of performing arts, design businesses and fi ne arts shops.

“Th at’s my vision, and that’s what I would be pushing to do.”

She also believes Campbell Heights, a large business district near 192 Street and 24 Avenue, is undersold.

She wants to see more agri-food industry there as well as aerospace fi rms.

Hepner was eco-nomic development manager for the city when Campbell Heights came to fruition. She describes it as the best land to build on this side of Burlington, On-tario.

More can, and will, be done on that vast prop-erty, she vows.

Crime reduction is also a key challenge that Hepner wants to ad-dress.

But she says it’s “myo-pic and simplistic” to just throw more police at the problem.

Innovative solutions include getting more civilians to do the desk work, so gun-carrying police can be out on the road where they belong.

“Get the police offi -cers doing the real po-lice work,” Hepner says.

She also wants to do more about the root causes of crime.

Some of the things

she’s considering is regulating all drug and alcohol recovery homes so they all meet an ac-ceptable standard.

More also needs to be done for at-risk youth, she says.

She also wants to “re-invigorate” the Block Watch program, which is falling away in com-munities such as New-ton.

Newton itself needs some attention she says, and under her watch, the community will get it.

She wants to relocate the Newton ice arena,

and create a centre for excellence on ice else-where in the commu-nity.

Where else, she asks, do you see an ice rink in the centre of the com-munity?

In its place, she wants to work with the private sector to attract a mixture of commer-cial and residential projects to the Newton site.

She thinks a hotel and trade and conven-tion centre should be located at the Clover-dale Fair-grounds.

And Hep-ner also wants to in-crease the pressure on Tr a n s L i n k to bring this city more ef-fective pub-lic transit.

Like Watts, Hepner wants to see at-grade rail in the city as soon as possible.

Hepner also noted TransLink has been operating under flawed data when they determine population density (usually used to justify levels of ser-vice).

TransLink has been determining Surrey’s density by factoring in the entire land mass, including the 33 per cent that’s Agricultural Land Reserve. As it’s set aside for important food harvest, Hepner says it shouldn’t be used in the formula.

When the ALR is ex-cluded, Surrey has the same population den-sity as Burnaby, Hep-ner says.

She informed the transportation author-ity of that two years ago, and says things are changing because of it.

Hepner says there are also fun things the city could be doing.

With an effort to get more people to the wa-

terfront on the Fraser River, Hepner wantsto see a ferris wheel on the beach by the Pat-tullo Bridge.

“Why can’t I have a ferris wheel there?” Hepner asks. “Why can’t I have somethingthat brings kids to the waterfront?”

She would also like to see fireworks, oranything that will at-tracts families to Brownsville Bar.

“I’d like to do some-thing that activates thewaterfront.”

She also wants to make use of Surrey Lake,a body of water cre-ated more than a de-cade ago at 75 Avenue and 152 Street.

“Either bring insome sand, make it abeach, let somebody utilize it, or don’t call it Surrey Lake,” Hepnersays. “Because it cer-tainly isn’t.”

She says it’s “beg-ging for attention,” andit either gets it, or the name should come off.

Overall, she saysshe’s extremely pleasedwith the economic en-vironment that’s beencreated over the last decade in this city.

“The enormity of what we have achievedand the fact I believe a whole lot of that suc-cess is attached to thegovernance structurethat we’ve created,” Hepner says.

“I’m tremendously proud of that. I don’tthink that’s happenedanywhere else in the country.”

Knowing Rasode hasbegun garnering sup-port, Hepner says thecivic campaign has al-ready started.

The election will be held on Saturday, Nov.15.

Mushrooms For LifeBY CHRISTINE CHENG (R.Ph.) AND FREDERICK CHENG (R.Ph.)

Growing up in an Asian household, we always thought that mushrooms were simply tasty foods, especially shitake mushrooms which can add a savoury touch to so many dishes. Maitake mushrooms are particularly tasty when simmered in a hot-pot broth. But, I’m not here to give you a cooking lesson…at least not this month! For us, we realized the importance of mushrooms for their medicinal purposes when our uncle was diagnosed with 4th stage cancer and our father, Dr. Henry Cheng, put him on the Yunzhi mushroom (aka. Coriolus or Turkey Tail) as a part of the integrative approach he took to conquer his cancer.

There are many different types of mushrooms that all share one thing in common: the ability to modulate the immune system through their polysaccharides, beta-glucans, triterpenes, ganoderic acid, amino acids, and other phytonutrient content. Beyond that they have differing properties that make them powerful for differing applications.

RED REISHI is regarded amongst the Chinese and the Japanese as the “king of the mushrooms” and in fact is referred to as the “miraculous” or “heavenly herb”. In ancient China, Red Reishi was used by the royalty for longevity, vitality, fertility, and for any other stubborn illness. Modern medicine regards this mushroom as an adaptogen as it can normalize the body’s immunity and enhance the body’s ability to adapt to various external and internal stresses such as illness, anxiety, and fatigue. It can help give the immune system an overall boost and can

even help promote healthy moods, memory, and concentration. Red Reishi may even help reduce high blood pressure. This is a good mushroom to try if you are experiencing health issues that are directly related to stress, such as chronic pain, fatigue, insomnia, irritability, headaches, or weight gain.

If you’re looking to boost your brain power, consider LION’S MANE, named for its resemblance to the mane of a lion. Legend says that those who consume Lion’s Mane would have “nerves of steel and the memory of a lion”. In a study against other mushrooms, Lion’s Mane was the only one shown to increase the production of enzymes that would signal release of NGF, a protein molecule that has neuroprotective and repair functions. Lion’s Mane may also help calm the nervous system, which can help improve focus, concentration and memory as well as reducing feelings of depression and anxiety.

CORDYCEPS is the mushroom to use if you are looking for an energy boost! It provides support for the adrenal glands and can enhance your energy by increasing ATP production, oxygen utilization, and blood fl ow. It can also help with libido in both men and women. Cordyceps may also used to help with male fertility as clinical studies have demonstrated its ability to increase sperm survival rates.

Perhaps the most potent of these medicinal mushrooms is the CORIOLUS versicolor mushroom, which is also known as the “Yunzhi” mushroom or cloud mushroom. Not only can it strengthen the immune system and help the body to fi ght infections, it can help prevent chronic fatigue by increasing energy and vitality. In fact, it is common practice in Asian cultures to give it to patients who are extremely fatigued and/or are so ill that they have lost their so-called “vital force”

as Coriolus can be remarkable in increasing their vitality. Certain polysaccharides found in this mushroom are responsible for its anti-metastatic properties. Furthermore, Coriolus’ antioxidant properties may play a role in protecting normal tissues from the effects of chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy.

Going back to those mushrooms that we previously only thought of as food, it turns out that MAITAKE mushrooms are good for increasing vitality and fi ghting fatigue as well as helping with weight control by contributing to healthy cholesterol levels and balancing blood sugar. As for SHITAKE mushrooms, along with their general immune-stimulating properties, they may help the body fi ght upper respiratory tract diseases due to their anti-viral and anti-bacterial properties.

It is amazing how centuries before scientifi c techniques were applied to reveal how these medicinal mushrooms actually help improve our health, many cultures were already using mushrooms for their astounding benefi ts. There is a lot more we can tell you about mushrooms; come see us if you are curious. For now, suffi ce it to say that there defi nitely is truth behind the saying, “Food is Medicine”.

Th ree new faces added to the Surrey First roster

Personal student info sent to Surrey parents in error

By Kevin DiakiwSurrey First is telegraphing a

public safety agenda by naming both a fi refi ghter and a Mountie to its contestants for city council this fall.

Mike Starchuk, Dave Woods and Vera LeFranc will be running with the coalition of indepen-dents this fall, Surrey First was expected to announce yesterday at an event at SFU Sur-rey.

Starchuk, a Surrey fi refi ghter, was just recognized with an Honorary Member-ship to the B.C. Pro-fessional Firefi ght-ers’ Association, for his “selfl ess work on behalf of his fellow fi refi ghters throughout the prov-ince.”

Surrey First has also signed up Woods, who was the former dis-

trict commander for Cloverdale.Former offi cer in charge of

Surrey RCMP Fraser MacRae called Woods “a quintessential district commander, a quintes-sential chief of police for Clo-verdale.”

Woods was an extremely pop-

ular presence among Cloverdale residents during his command at that district station.

Th e civic coalition has also selected LeFranc, who was in charge of women’s programs for the Newton Advocacy Group

Society for eight years before be-coming manager of community projects for Vancity.

LeFranc also manages the city of Surrey’s Homelessness and Housing fund.

“I’m thrilled to be able to of-fer up these three candidates as

wonderful change,” said mayoral candi-date and current city Coun. Linda Hepner. “Th ey’re new can-didates, they’re all strong, they all love Surrey and they’re all team players.”

As to whether she expects the new names on the coali-tion to off er the group

another sweep on council, Hep-ner said that’s the idea.

“I’m hoping for another sweep. We have shown govern-ment works best with a diversi-fi ed team that works together and gets things done.”

by Sheila ReynoldsTh e Surrey School

District has alerted B.C.’s privacy commissioner and is reviewing its procedures aft er some personal student infor-mation was emailed to parents early this week.

District spokesman Doug Strachan said the incident involved about 250 students at a single school and the informa-tion was sent to parents at that school only.

He said while the email message was in-tended to include a document from Surrey’s superintendent about ongoing teacher job ac-tion, a staff person “in-advertently” attached another document.

Strachan did not de-tail what type of infor-mation was included or what school was in-volved, as that would further breach student privacy.

“It wasn’t fi nancial- or medical-related, but would be considered personal or private in-formation under the Privacy Act,” said Stra-chan.

Th e school staff mem-ber noticed the error almost immediately, he said, and sent a follow-up email asking that parents delete the prior message containing the wrong attachment. Th e school district’s privacy offi cer was then notifi ed

and a letter was prompt-ly prepared and sent to parents of students in-volved, explaining what happened and who to speak to about concerns or questions.

“Th ough not required, the district notifi ed the privacy commissioner … to be prudent and to seek their advice,” said Strachan.

He added while the

incident appears to have been human error, it’s being reviewed to en-sure steps are taken to minimize the chances of something similar hap-pening again.

Ashamed of animal abuse

Coal expansion – a done deal?

To the editor;It is really disconcerting to hear that Penny Priddy is probably

the only voice of reason on the board of directors of Port MetroVancouver.

Th e other 10 most likely obey the dictates of their “raison d’etre,” the government in Ottawa, without concern for the local citizenry who will be impacted by their decisions. 

Why do I get this gut feeling they have been told no matterhow long it takes or how many hoops they have to jump through, eventually they must approve the coal transfer station at Fraser Surrey Docks?

Ignore the fact the Americans have refused to ship this U.S.thermal coal through their ports, open coal cars and barges im-pacting our environment and being a signifi cant contributor topollution in China to say nothing of global warming. 

It truly would be a miracle if they had the courage to refuse toapprove the permit application.

David Gibbs, Surrey

To the editor;The horror story that has

come to light regarding the abuse of milk cows on Can-ada’s largest dairy farm is ap-palling.

Not only that, but reliable sources claim this is commonplace across Canada.

Cruelty seems to be a part of the life of the animals that help feed us. I sus-pect it is because they are deemed not to have feelings and emotions.

This is a false concept. Sci-entists are proving that al-

though we humans consider ourselves the elite beings on the planet, other life forms feel the same pain, fear, sor-row and loss as we do. I read that the laws in most Euro-pean countries are far more

stringent in regards to the treatment of animals and that North America trails far behind.

We should damn well be ashamed of ourselves.

Looking to Ease Your Pet’s Pain?

Along with warm summer nights come barbecues, campfi res and fi reworks. While the sonic-boom of pyrotechnics may be thrilling for us, it is not as enjoyable for many of our furry friends.

Fireworks can cause animals to panic, putting both pets and people in danger. When dogs and cats are frightened they are more likely to run away from their homes, jump out of open windows or dart into traffi c. Stressed pets can also behave out of character — even scratching or biting people. With summer now underway, the BC SPCA strongly recommends that pet guardians plan for the safety of their household animals during fi reworks festivities.

Keep pets insideAn indoor pet is a happy pet on fi reworks night. To help muffl e the noise and prevent animals from escaping, remember to close the windows of your home and draw the curtains. Some pets do well left in a separate room with the radio or television on to mask the sound of fi reworks. Be sure to leave plenty of

toys in the room for your pet so that he doesn’t think he’s being isolated as a punishment.

Identifi cationMake sure your pet is wearing identifi cation. Dogs and cats may try to run away if they feel threatened. Clear, current identifi cation is your best chance to have them returned to you.

Don’t console your anxious petWhile it is natural to want to comfort your pet, it is better to use a bright, cheerful voice to send a message that things are fi ne. Avoid saying things like, “it’s OK” or “don’t be scared” in a soft or sympathetic voice. This only reinforces your pet’s fearful behaviour.

Leave homewithout themWhile you may think it would be fun to bring your dog to the festivities, he or she may not share your view. The strange sights, sounds, and crowds can cause a normally friendly dog to bite if it feels scared or threatened. A quiet night at home with their favourite toys and treats would probably suit much better!

Visit spca.bc.ca for more information on summer pet safety.

Students, staff donate bloodBlack PressOver the past nine years,

Grade 12 students, staff , and alumni from Lord Tweedsmuir Secondary have donated more than 1,000 units of blood to Ca-nadian Blood Services.

Th e blood donor program at the school had humble be-ginnings in 2006, according to Michele Stea, the teacher who recruited the student donors. During the fi rst year that the program ran, a total of 25 units of blood were collected. In each of the following years, the number of donations increased, reaching a peak of 193 units in 2012. Donations have fl uctuated

over the past four years, but have consistently been above 100 units per year.

“I was thrilled when I realized that, at some point in May of this year, one of our students made the 1,000th donation”, said Stea. “I think this is a great accom-plishment, and is a refl ection of the calibre of students we have at Lord Tweedsmuir.”

Giving blood requires some courage (especially the fi rst time) and a sacrifi ce of time (about one-and-a-half hours). According to Stea, during the nine years she has been running the program, there have been more than 400 students who

have become regular blood do-nors.

“Th e fact that so many teen-agers from our community have stepped up to donate is awe-some,” she said.

In addition, many Lord Tweedsmuir alumni have con-tinued to donate blood, which is the true legacy of the program.

“Shortly aft er I started the do-nor program, Canadian Blood Services initiated a program called “Th e Young Blood Chal-lenge,” said. Stea. “Th e main goal of the program is to encourage young people to become blood donors.”

Th e need for blood is ongoing,

and with many older donors ag-ing out of the program, there is a great need for new members to take their place.

Th e Young Blood Challenge is a competition amongst second-ary schools across Canada, with prizes given to the top donat-ing schools in each region. Lord Tweedsmuir has twice been the recipient of prize money, which was awarded as scholarships to graduating students who par-ticipated in the program.

Canadian Blood Services’ Sur-rey clinic is located at 15285 101 Ave. To make an appointment to give blood, call 1-888-2-DO-NATE.

Tweedsmuir teen wins national awardby Evan SealLord Tweedsmuir

Grade 11 student An-drea Lanouette has been awarded fi rst place in the annual Aboriginal Arts and Stories writing contest entitled “Our

Story” organized by His-torica Canada.

Her story, titled “Tears,” is written through the eyes of a young boy and how his close friend, a young aboriginal girl named Caroline, is found mur-dered on Highway 16 – an 800-kilometre stretch of road between Prince George and Prince Ru-pert in northern B.C.

It is referred to as the Highway of Tears due to the large number of women who have been killed or gone missing along the route.

Lanouette, from the Haisla Nation, had seen the fl yer for the contest in the aboriginal room at her school, but it wasn’t until her creative writing teacher encour-aged her to give it a shot that she decided to en-ter.

“My dad was the one that suggested writing a story about the trag-edies that have occurred along the Highway of Tears,” she said, “I was born in Terrace so I had heard of the story but I really didn’t know much about it until I started doing some research.”

For winning, Lanou-ette received $2,000 and was fl own to Ottawa to receive her award. “It was pretty cool, a really great experience,” she said

Since her win, Lanou-ette now plans to use the money to continue her studies once she graduates and hopes to become a fi ction editor and eve n write a book

of her own.Since its inception

in 2005, nearly 2,000 emerging aboriginal writers and artists have participated in the con-test .

Historica Canada has a mandate to build active and informed citizens through greater knowledge and appre-ciation of the history, heritage and stories of

Canada.Th e contest is open to

Canadians of aboriginalancestry (status, non-status, Inuit and Metis) between the ages of 11 to 29.

Report cards nixed by strike

by Tom FletcherWith schools behind

picket lines for a secondweek and little hope of aquick settlement, schooldistricts are starting to notify parents that year-end report cards won’t beproduced.

Surrey School DistrictSupt. Jordan Tinney post-ed a notice to parents that even shortened report cards that were plannedat the beginning of the B.C. Teachers’ Federationstrike won’t be possible.

“Th e information that we need to produce re-port cards is in the handsof teachers and they areon strike,” Tinney wrote.“Th e support staff wenormally have to help usdevelop and print reportcards are also honouring the picket lines and arenot at work.”

School districts are running buses this weekto get Grade 10-12 stu-dents to provincial ex-ams, which have been designated an essential service by the B.C. La-bour Relations Board.
