They have their notices to vacate in black and white, but campers along Cliff Avenue are dawdling in their departure.

After the temporary home-less shelter opened Thursday on Lougheed Highway, residents of the Cliff Avenue camp had another

place to live, if only for six months.But Monday, about 20 tents still

stood along the street.“They’ve sent us an eviction no-

tice and we’re to be out by tomor-row,” said Linda Whitford, known as ‘Mama Bear.’

The notice was a letter from the city asking them to leave by Tues-day, even offering a place to store their belongings until they had found a home.

But Whitford, one of the founders of the camp last May, is not moving until she can see a court order de-

manding people leave.“Unless they come here and show

us the injunction, we’re not going to leave. They have to show us the injunction.”

The city doesn’t yet have a court injunction, but the Notice to Cease Camping is the first step to-wards that.

The goal is to have voluntary com-pliance, although the city is also working on securing an injunction if that becomes necessary.

Whitford is trying to get room-mates together so they can share

the rent of a house. But even if she finds a place, she’s worried about what happens to the other resi-dents. “I’m just worried about the people who don’t have the beds, and the people that use. I’m wor-ried that they’re going to go off and shoot up and die because they don’t have the people supporting them.”

Rochelle McIntosh was being forced to move, from one tent to an-other on Monday night, after hav-ing her belongings taken by the city this morning.

The freshly inked Trans Pacific Part-nership is showing the gaps between the top contenders in Pitt Meadows-Maple Ridge this election, with the NDP critical and the Conservatives trumpeting the deal.

Trade deals aren’t working for Canada, NDP candidate Bob D’Eith told a candidates’ forum Monday at Meadowridge School.

In the last decade, Canada has lost 400,000 manufacturing jobs, while in the first quarter of this year, the coun-try’s trade deficit stood at $7 billion.

Higher prescription costs, and harm to the wine, forestry and farm-ing industries could result from the trade deal, he added.

“We will not be bound by the TPP.” The deal has to come to Parliament,

where the NDP will work to ensure it doesn’t make life harder for people, he added.

After five years of talks, though, Conservative Mike Murray said the news that the deal was done was “a great day for Canada.

“We need a robust trade policy. We’re for trade and this is an exciting thing for Canada.”

Cliff campers in no hurry Some won’t leave without an injunction

The real estate market in Ma-ple Ridge and Pitt Meadows has been just as hot as the El

Nino summer the Lower Mainland had, as sales have hit levels not seen in nine years.

Sales of all types of property in Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows are up dramatically.

July, August and September of 2015 saw 464 houses sold in the area, which was 21 per cent more than the same period in 2014.

“The entire market for Maple Ridge has been amazing,” said re-altor Ron Antalek. “We’ve had sit-uations where there are multiple offers, where homes are selling for more than their asking price.”

In the entire Metro area, covered by the Real Estate Board of Great-er Vancouver, only Richmond was a busier market for detached housing.

As a whole, the REBGV was up 10 per cent.

Sales of townhouse units were up even more in Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows, to 207 units from 117, for a 76 per cent increase. Apartments were up too, to 107 units from 84, for a 27 per cent

bump.Across Metro Vancouver, Sep-

tember sales were up 33 per cent compared to the 10-year average for the month.

“Residential home sales have been trending at 25 to 30 per cent above the 10-year sales average

for most of the year,” said Darcy McLeod, a Maple Ridge realtor and the president of the REBGV.

“The number of homes listed for sale hasn’t been keeping up with the demand.”

That has put upward pressure on housing prices, and the bench-

mark price for all residential properties in Vancouver is up al-most 14 per cent compared with September 2014, to $722,000. This includes all housing types.

Detached home prices are up 19 per cent in the region, hitting a benchmark of $1.18 million.

It’s a seller’s market, in which Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows stand out for affordable housing, and more selection, said the local realtors.

Locally, the price of a single family detached home has risen 9.7 per cent, up to benchmark $525,000 in Maple Ridge, and 11.5 per cent to $579,000 in Pitt Meadows.

That looks affordable from neighbouring cities.

“There’s a lot of buyers looking in Maple Ridge and Pitt Mead-ows,” said McLeod. “They are still a great value.”

The benchmark price in Co-quitlam, for example, is $903,000 for a single family home, and in most of Burnaby it’s over $1 mil-lion.

While Maple Ridge is still easy commuting distance to most places in the Lower Mainland, it’s difficult for some buyers to see themselves moving farther east, said McLeod.

“A lot of people are hesitant to put their houses on the market, because they’re fearful of where they might go next.”

McLeod advised buyers to strat-egize with their realtor, so they know in advance the character-istics of the property they want to buy, and arrange to see their prospective new homes as soon as they hit the market.

Not enough listings in hot market

Former Pitt mayor wants specific breed banB y N e i l C o r b e t [email protected]

Delegates lobbying for a tougher vicious dog bylaw in Pitt Meadows have found an ally in former mayor Don MacLean.

The retired politician, who was mayor for 12 years and a member of council for 21, is calling for a bans on vicious dog breeds.

That’s a tougher stance than is being tak-en by John and Yvonne McDonald, whose therapy dog Buttons, a Shih Tzu cross, was mauled to death by a bull mastiff last week. Faced with a $14,000 vet bill for surgeries on the dog, the pensioners were forced to have Buttons put down.

Since then, they have started the Justice for Buttons Facebook page, which has 282 followers. They also have an online peti-tion, and were on the agenda for council’s regular meeting on Tuesday night.

Yvonne has a number of proposals for council, including a fine of at least $500 for a dog attack, that the attacking dog be

seized and be held until its owner pays the vet bills of the injured dog, and that dan-gerous dogs not be allowed in places where people congregate or in dog parks.

The McDonalds are having trouble getting their vet bill of $1,200 paid, she said.

Yvonne is also proposing that if a dog kills another pet, it be put down on the first of-fense, rather than being given the “danger-ous dog” designation under the bylaw. She would also advocate for a system of track-ing dangerous dogs around the province. At present, the designation is only practically enforced in their home community.

“Nothing that happens at council is going to help us in any way,” noted John. “It’s all for future dog owners.”

The McDonalds have many supportive comments from people who knew Buttons, who visited patients in hospital, residents in retirement homes and was used for a reading program at the library.

One such comment was from the former mayor.

“My condolences to John and Yvonne on the loss of Buttons. He was a very sweet dog and a great member of our community,” said MacLean.

“I believe, and have for awhile, that Pitt Meadows needs to amend [its] bylaw by en-acting a specific breeds ban. Buttons was at least the third canine victim in the last year in Pitt Meadows.”

The other two most recent fatal dog attacks reported were Julie Newlove’s Pomeranian Lilly, which was killed by a neighbour’s pit bull outside its home on Aug. 11. And in July of 2014 a Yorkshire Terrier, Tucker, was killed by a pit bull cross while the little dog’s owner, Greg Wyatt, walked him.

“All three could have been children. At the very least council should have staff re-view specific breed legislation in other Ca-nadian jurisdictions and the results,” said MacLean.

Ontario and the city of Winnipeg are two Canadian jurisdictions with breed-specific dog bans.

ContributedButtons helped with reading programs at Pitt Meadows library.

A memorial service will be held Saturday at the Salvation Army Caring Place for Anita Hauck, an advocate for the homeless.

Hauck, 45, died Sept. 28, after getting stuck in a clothing donation bin at a shopping centre in Pitt Meadows.

She had been living at the homeless camp on Cliff Avenue and vol-unteered at the Salva-tion Army.

She was an advocate for the homeless and spoke out about hous-ing at a municipal elec-tion forum last Novem-ber. She recently spoke out in favour of the Salvation Army follow-ing a request by Maple Ridge council for B.C. Housing to cut funding for the emergency shel-ter there.

“That was my baby daughter,” said Loretta Sundstrom, who also lives in Maple Ridge.

Hauck was the young-est of five children and was born in Vancou-ver. She had never been back east, as was previ-ously reported.

“She’s never been to eastern U.S. or Cana-da. She was born in St. Paul’s Hospital, raised in Vancouver.”

Sundstrom was close to her daughter and

knew about her strug-gles.

“I’m the one who was closest to Anita.”

When her mom moved to Maple Ridge, Hauck followed.

“It was the Car-ing Place that helped her get on track,” said Sundstrom added.

The Caring Place will be the location of a fu-neral service for Hauck on this Saturday, at 2 p.m.

“We’re encouraging people to park across the street. We feel

it’s going to be a full house,” said Darrell Pil-grim with the Salvation Army.

Kathie and Ed Chiu, former executive-di-rector with the Caring Place in Maple Ridge, will be officiating. The couple worked with Anita during her 10 years or so volunteer-ing at The Caring Place.

“We hope to celebrate the life of someone who affected a lot of people, and who showed care and compassion for many,” said Pilgrim.

Funeral for Anita Saturday

Tim Fitzgerald/THE NEWSA memorial for Anita Hauck has been set up at the Cliff Avenue homeless camp, where she had been staying since spring.

And it will be no sur-prise the NDP will vote against it, Murray added.

“The NDP has not sup-ported any trade deals that have come before Parliament.”

The agreement allows for more imports of dairy products, increas-ing foreign access from 10 to 13.5 per cent of the Canadian market.

More Asian-made parts are now allowed into Canadian-made au-tos.

Dan Ruimy, running for the Liberals, said his party supports free trade. Export-related in-dustries create jobs that pay 50 per cent higher than those for the do-mestic market, he added.

“Here’s the problem, we don’t know what they’ve done because it’s been negotiated in secret. It still has to go through Parliament. It still has to go open de-bate and there’s where the Liberal party stands. We will have open de-bate in a public forum.”

Independent candidate Steve Ranta said that ef-fects of the deal on dairy and auto industries is just a small part com-pared to the influence in domestic affairs that other countries may gain from such deals.

“The devil is in the de-tails, that’s all I can say about it,” said Green par-ty candidate Peter Tam.

“Has anyone signed a contract or entered into an agreement without reading it?”

The candidates also tried to solve issues clos-er to home, such as the high cost of housing, as they responded in the first hour to tough ques-tions submitted online.

“We have to have a strong economy … high-paying jobs so our young people can get into the market,” said Murray.

The Conservatives have offered the first-time home buyers credit, Tax Free Savings Ac-counts and deductions from RRSPs for down payments, he added. People first have to have the money to buy a house, added Ruimy. “That’s one of our prob-lems. We have a lot of people who are below middle class and they’re struggling.”

The Liberals will re-new federal funding for co-op housing projects, Ruimy promised.

Currently in Pitt Mead-

ows and Maple Ridge, seven co-op housing projects are losing their subsidies, affecting 640 families, he said.

“As your MP, I want to make sure that doesn’t happen and we send the money to the people who need it the most.

The NDP will try to increase the supply of housing by providing in-centives to build 10,000 rental and affordable housing units, D’Eith said.

His party will create a national housing strat-egy what will ensure “having a roof over your head is a right in Cana-da.

“Right now, Maple Ridge is experiencing a homeless crisis and the Conservative govern-ment is doing nothing to help.”

Housing First doesn’t work because it doesn’t support people after they’ve found a place, D’Eith said.

His party would renew the co-op housing agree-ments and put $20 bil-lion into social housing across Canada within five years.

Tam said a housing strategy also has to in-clude housing for those with mental health is-sues, First Nations and seniors.

Asked about the Liber-al tax policy, Ruimy said his party will spend $120 billion on communities over a decade.

“Our communities have suffered. They have suffered over the last eight years. We have had deficits, after defi-cits, after deficits. It’s not enough. We need to put money back into our communities … and help those people join the middle class so they can be productive mem-bers of our society, as well.”

Ranta pointed out that the Broadbent Institute, named after the former NDP leader, says that 80 per cent of Canadians recognize that income equality is a problem.

But none of the ma-jor parties want to raise taxes on the wealthy or businesses.

“And that’s a severe problem in our society,” Ranta said.

Parties are being con-trolled into not fulfilling the wishes of the major-ity of Canadians and it’s hurting our society in many ways, he added.

Inequality leads to eco-nomic stagnation, which Ranta said the Interna-tional Monetary Fund has recognized that.

D’Eith pointed out that Conservatives have

fired 4,000 scientists, and there are 25 million streams and rivers that no longer have protec-tion.

“We feel that we can actually have a strong environment and strong economy. That’s some-thing the Conservatives don’t seem to under-stand.”

Creating a million child-care spaces, de-pending on provincial approval, would also boost the economy, he said.

“We believe in low tax-es, they don’t,” countered Murray.

“We believe in bal-anced budgets, they don’t. We delivered.”

You need more money in your pockets, he add-ed.

“There’s the difference – low taxes, balanced budget and open trade.”

Ruimy pointed out that the Conservatives also ran six deficits.

He said his party will sign the health accord with provinces. “Were going to sit down with the premiers and actu-ally talk to them, which somebody doesn’t do on the other end down there.”

How about work-ing together instead of working against each other, he added.

Thanks Bruce

I have a young family, a husband and three kids and my life is very complex. I needed choice, customization and spending a lot of money on glasses was something I couldn’t justify. My Great Glasses experience was awesome. I didn’t need an appointment for my eye test and I got three pairs of glasses for less than I paid for one pair at my regular optometrist. I couldn’t believe how great the deal was and how accommodating the staff were to me. I will not buy glasses anywhere but Great Glasses in the future. I’m so glad that Bruce was willing to fi ght for good customer value.

The federal budget document began with an ominous warning about deep cuts. Social programs, justice and corrections would be spared as much as possible, but no department would escape the knife.

The stark truth was revealed in a table of figures. Health care spending, the core of the Canadian state, was cut by 3.8 per cent in just the first year of the fiscal plan, as population and need continued to grow.

No, this is not from the Stephen Harper budget of April 2015, or any other in the last decade. It’s from the Jean Chretien budget of 1995, more than 20 years ago. That’s the last time anyone actually cut health care spending.

But wait, you may say. Didn’t I hear that Harper has slashed health care spending by $30 billion? Yes, you probably did hear the biggest, most brazen lie of this election campaign, either from the government unions that advertised it or the politicians who parrot it.

If health care really is everyone’s high-priority issue, as pollsters have long assured us, voters should at least know the facts.

After cutting provincial health and social services transfers for years to end the string of operating deficits that began un-der Pierre Trudeau and continued under Brian Mulroney, Liberal finance minister

Paul Martin rose briefly to the top job.In 2004, Martin staged meetings with

premiers, emerging with what was billed as “a fix for a generation,” with federal health transfers to rise six per cent each year into the future.

The future for Martin’s government lasted only two years, as his minority was replaced with one led by Harper.

These galloping increases continued un-til the Conservative majority of 2011, after which then-finance minister Jim Flaherty came to Victoria to inform provincial finance ministers of the new plan. (I was there, and the joke was that this was as far from Ottawa as Flaherty could get without leaving Canada.)

The six-per-cent increases, by that time triple inflation, would continue for anoth-er five years. Starting in 2017-18, increases would be tied to economic growth, with a minimum hike of three per cent, still well ahead of today’s inflation. That remains the Conservative plan today.

All provinces east of Saskatchewan pitched a fit. Manitoba’s NDP finance minister termed it “un-Canadian.” Left-ies immediately called it a cut, to which Flaherty replied that transfers to provinces would rise from $30 billion to $38 billion in 2018-19, and continue to grow after that.

In B.C., then-finance minister Kevin Falcon praised the long-term approach, acknowledging that health spending was ballooning to half of the provincial budget and had to be brought under control as baby boomers start to retire. B.C. has largely accomplished that, with spending

increases below three per cent and health care outcomes that continue to lead the country.

As the current election campaign turns into the home stretch, Statistics Canada has announced a milestone. For the first time in history, the number of seniors exceeds number of children. This demo-graphic shift is inexorable, predictable and must be addressed by whoever wins the Oct. 19 federal election.

NDP leader Thomas Mulcair is on record that he will scrap the Conserva-tive formula for growth-based increases that he pretends are cuts, returning to six per cent every year while balancing the budget. Little detail has been provided on how this would be done.

Liberal leader Justin Trudeau announced in Surrey last week that he will ante up an extra $3 billion over four years for health care, and “sit down with the provinces im-mediately” to renegotiate, a rerun of Paul Martin’s political theatre.

Tom Fletcher is legislature reporter and columnist for Black Press.

Brief history of health spending

Cast a voteIngrid RiceNews Views

Canadians are lucky, in many ways, when it comes to our electoral system, because we get to make choices.

We can choose to vote for something we want. But we can also choose to vote strategi-cally, against something that we don’t want.

The concept of strategic voting will have some part to play in this month’s federal elec-tion.

It comes with a multi-party, first-past-the-post electoral system.

It’s difficult to say what impact strategic vot-ing will have, if vote-splitting will be an issue or not.

That sense of unknown might lead to people voting strategically.

Some would argue that strategic voting is contradictory to the tenets of democracy. We don’t believe that to be true.

Individual voters have the right to decide how they want to vote, and why they want to vote that way, for their personal reasons.

If voting against a particular party – rather than voting for their preferred party – will get them closer to what they want, then maybe, for some Canadians, that’s enough.

And as for those who vote for what they want, and demand the very best Canada and won’t compromise and don’t have a second choice, how could anyone argue that those people are wasting their vote?

The thing about strategic voting, it ensures we’re not wasting our vote.

Really, the only wasted votes are the ones not cast.

Editor, The News: Re: Cliff camp leader

‘touched souls’ (The News, Oct. 2)

Thank you for the beautiful article about Anita Hauck.

She and Ken were regular visitors to the CEED Centre, where I work in the adult liter-acy outreach office.

Together they spoke passionately about bringing dignity to those who live without homes.

I read some of her writing.

She brought her daughter to an art workshop.

It broke my heart to see her described in some media as a “homeless woman” whose name was not released.

Your article gave dignity to her life and passing.

Editor, The News:Re: Real moral crisis in the world is indifference (Letters,

Oct. 2).Dr. Dennis Hall, M. Ed. Ph. D., has a very dark and

depressive view of humanity. He places the greedy, clever, selfish and influential

millions who throw crumbs to the mentally lazy, spine-less, and apathetic who wallow in it and distance them-selves from the poor.

I’m curious what group Dr. Hall is in. In every level of society, wealthy, poor or in between,

there are the greedy, selfish, lazy, spineless, apathetic wannabes.

In every level of society there are the self-sacrificing, hard-working, brave, eager to better society.

Millions of wealthy, middle and poor support all man-ner of charity, devoting their time and such as they have to the needy.

No matter their material wealth, some might not have much, but they are not poor.

It is disturbing that Dr. Hall is in the education field.Cherryl Katnich

‘Nobody wants to go there’Shelter from front

She has a bed at the shelter, but doesn’t want to go.

“So I can have them rip off everything?” she said.

“Nobody wants to go to that shelter.”

One man just arrived at the camp after losing his apartment Friday, when he said his girlfriend left him.

He was trying to get into a psychiatric ward, because access to help his addiction to crystal meth was quicker.

“I’ve been having sei-zures,” he said. “Really, I’m dying.”

He had all his posses-sions in his truck and ex-plained his girlfriend left because she didn’t want to see him die a slow death from drugs.

Maple Ridge council heard Monday that 27 people are now registered at the temporary shel-ter. That doesn’t mean they’re actually staying there, just that they’ve registered.

“So we’re getting very good uptake,” said parks and recreation services general manager Kelly Swift.

Photos posted on social media last week showed many empty beds.

Swift told council that the costs of combatting the homeless issue, now called the Maple Ridge Resilience Initiative, re-mains what it was in April, $325,000. Of that: $160,000 will pay four street outreach workers for six months; $65,000 for staffing; $25,000 for security; and $75,000 to pay for a study to assess social service delivery in Maple Ridge.

While the city had to pay for renovations to the building to allow the temporary shelter to open, as well as more than $7,000 monthly for the six months the shelter will be open, that’s been balanced out by B.C. Housing paying for the outreach workers.

When Randy Sorely started his career as a

tow truck driver, he had one goal. Then 26, he had gone into business with his father Milton and two other partners, opening Maple Ridge Towing. It was, as Sorely pointed out, a profession that was in serious need of a makeover.

“When I got into the business in 1981, I recog-nized shortly thereafter the image of the indus-try was in a very, very sad state of repair,” said Sorely. “It needed change. I worked very hard to make this a better busi-ness.”

Sorely, who’s quickly ap-proaching his 35th year in business in Maple Ridge, has certainly caught the eyes of those in the indus-try.

Sorely was just inducted into the International Towing and Recovery Hall of Fame for his life-

long dedication to his profession.

“Quite frankly, it’s over-whelming,” Sorely said af-ter receiving the award at a ceremony in Chattanoo-ga, Tennessee last month. “This is the highest award possible in the towing in-dustry, worldwide and I feel quite honoured to be even nominated. The bar is set very high.”

International Towing and Recovery Hall of Fame is situated in the hometown of the inventor of the tow truck, Ernest Holmes, Sr., who came up with the idea after he and six friends struggled to pull yet another car out of a creek.

The hall was first recog-nized in 1985 and found a permanent home a decade later, opening a museum honouring the industry’s heritage.

Sorely is just the fifth person from B.C. to be inducted and the first in almost 20 years.

From the moment his went to work with his

father, Sorely began his quest to improve the busi-ness, both at his own shop as well as industry-wide. He joined the Automo-tive Retailers Association and quickly ascended to chairman of its tow-ing division. From that role, Sorely said he’s been working tirelessly to with government agencies to improve laws and regula-tions for his industry and to make safety a top prior-ity.

“I set out to try to lead by example with equip-ment, professional drivers

in uniforms, and gener-ally just trying to raise the bar to make the image of the industry that much more professional,“ he said.

A big part of what he set out to accomplish has

been the training of driv-ers, at his shop and across the province. Two to three times a year, his shop plays host to WreckMas-ter, the largest training certification program.

‘Job not for everybody’Drivers from B.C., Alberta as well

the Pacific Northwest descend on Ma-ple Ridge to learn the latest in technol-ogy and safety.

In addition, he’s helped pioneer the Towing Recovery Alliance of Can-ada, for which he currently sits as president. In addition, he’s started and continues to publish Tow Can-ada magazine. Locally, he’s an active member of the Maple Ridge chamber of commerce and won small business of the year in 2014 and actively works with Operation Red Nose during the Christmas holidays.

Sorely said what’s made his career so rewarding is also bringing the hu-man touch to his business. He said he is keenly aware that a call to his shop means someone else is having a bad day.

“How you meet people and what kind of impression you leave with them is so important. You have to be able to quickly recognize the severity of the situation and act professionally and compassionately at the same time.”

Sorely said he works with his staff to ensure they keep a professional, but more importantly, a humane ap-proach, harking back to the age-old philosophy of treating others the way he would want to be treated. He said that’s not always easy in a business that sees its fair share of tragedy. The difficulty with the business is the call at three o’clock in the morning and having to get out of bed and then crawl into a ditch to put a chain on a vehicle. Drivers still have to maintain composure to deal with either the owner of the vehicle or a family mem-ber, he said.

“This job is not for everybody. It takes a unique personality to be suc-cessful to stay and maintain in the in-dustry.”

His business has a number of long-

term employees at the shop, some up to 20 years.

That, along with the steady hand of his daughter Dena, is what he attri-butes his business success and the op-portunity to be inducted into the hall in Chattanooga.

“If it wasn’t for them, I doubt I would have had the time to volunteer my time on all the various associations.”

He said part of that success also comes from having a thick skin. Sore-ly said when it comes to dealing with what is most people’s second largest investment, being calm in the face of raw emotions has served him well.

“We are the brunt, many times, of people’s frustrations,” he said.

Sorely said it is always a challenge when customers vent their frustra-tions. When he ran the front-end of the business, it was always a goal to have a customer leave 10 minutes later thanking me and waving as they leave the yard.

“That to me, is the art of diplomacy, that you can turn an unfortunate situ-ation around and help the customer to see we weren’t the problem. If it wasn’t us, it was going to be someone else. I’ve met with a lot of success with that approach over the years. I’ve never had anyone get violent with me. I’ve had a lot of threats,” he laughs.

Accepting the award was also a chance for Sorely to honour his em-ployee Eric Hodgeson, who died while working at Maple Ridge Towing in early February of this year.

Hodgeson’s name was placed on the hall’s Wall of the Fallen, honouring all those who have died in the line of ser-vice. He was one of 36 that lost lives on job last year.

“It was a roller coaster of emotions. In the morning, we’re there honouring an employee who died on the job and later that evening I am accepting an honour.”

A cab driver was as-sault early Sunday in Maple Ridge after tell-ing a group of people he didn’t have room for all of them.

At about 1:30 a.m., police said, the driver was approached by several people in the 24200 block of Dewdney Trunk Road. They want-ed a ride.

“The victim told the group he didn’t have

room in his cab for ev-eryone,” Ridge Mead-ows RCMP Cpl. Alanna Dunlop said. “One of the men began to argue with the driver, and this escalated into a full on physical assault of the driver.”

Two men were taken into custody and inter-viewed.

“Due to the fact that a significant amount of further investigation is

required, both suspects were released from cus-tody, but will appear in court on a later date,” Dunlop added. “Investi-gators will be following up with the victim and other witnesses as the case continues.”

Aggressive drivingRidge Meadows

RCMP are also looking to identify the drivers of

vehicles seen driving ag-gressively in the gravel parking lots at Albion Sports Complex.

“Police have received numerous complaints about vehicles accelerat-ing rapidly, which tosses gravel all over the lot,” Dunlop said.

Police are asking any witnesses to get licence plate numbers of vehicles and description of ve-hicles.

Pay hospital parking staysPay parking at hospitals is here

to stay, said Fraser Health board.Fraser Health board chair Kar-

en Matty was quick to dismiss any hopes that parking at hospi-tals could one day be free.

“We would love to provide free

parking but to be clear we will never have free parking,” said Matty at the last public Fraser Health board meeting, held in Langley on Sept. 24.

She was responding to a se-nior’s complaint that pay park-ing at hospitals penalizes those who are already vulnerable, of-

ten seniors or those arriving in medical distress.

“The fees we collect for park-ing go towards maintaining the lots, for snow removal and light-ing, etc.,” said Matty.

“We encourage people to car-pool to hospitals or arrange drop-off,” she said.

Thriller staged for Halloween season

ContributedActor Josh Osborne terrorizes actress Shannon Pauls in rehearsal for Theatre in the Country’s production of Wait Until Dark, running Oct. 8-31.

THE NEWS/arts&lifeContact 604-467-1122 ext. [email protected]

[email protected]

Shannon Pauls had seen the 1960s thriller Wait Until Dark, which starred Audrey Hep-

burn as a blind woman victimized by drug-dealing thugs. So, when Theatre in the Country announced it would bring the story to the stage this October, Pauls knew it was time to end her year-long hiatus from the theatre.

Pauls will star as the blind Susy in the Theatre in the Country produc-tion of the Frederick Knott suspense thriller, which opens Thursday.

Pauls has been seen on the stage in musicals in roles such as Mrs. Sow-erberry in Oliver, and Mrs. Cratchit in A Christmas Carol. Playing a blind woman is a formidable new chal-lenge.

“I want to develop more skills – hone in on my acting,” she said.

Fortunately – for her stage per-formance – when Pauls takes off her prescription glasses “the world becomes quite fuzzy and foreign,” which is a help.

In her work at a group home, she has spent time with visually impaired clients, and has some experience with facial expressions, body lan-guage and vocal expressions that she can draw on.

Pauls re-watched the classic film, to see how the character of Susy evolved from start to finish. She also found a video of how Hepburn prepared for the role. Hepburn was nominated for a best actress Oscar in 1968 for the film. She lost to Katharine Hepburn in the classic Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner.

But Pauls is becoming her own ver-sion of Susy, not Hepburn’s.

“I really wanted to make it my own, and I don’t think of her when I’m on the stage,” she said.

Wait Until Dark is a thriller with a shocking ending. The plot summary by the theatre company:

Susy was recently blinded and re-cently married. Her husband, Sam (John Tabak), is asked to hold a doll for a woman he doesn’t know as they get off an airplane. The woman dis-appears. Later, she’s found dead by her former associates, Mike (Graham Coates) and Carlino (Harry Perring), small-time hoods.

Hospital FoundationFundraising Gala

FRASER RIVER PILE & DREDGEIS PLEASED TO PRESENT

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 17MEADOW GARDENS GOLF CLUB

SILVER SPONSORS


[email protected]

The revived Art Crawl in downtown Maple Ridge was a hit with partici-pants and the business that took part, say organizers.

There were 31 dedicated crawlers who were entered to win 20 pieces of art donated by participating local artists. They qualified by having gone to 10 or more of the 20 participating businesses, and having their passport stamped.

Winners have been selected, and are picking up their prizes this week.

The Downtown Maple Ridge Busi-ness Improvement Association re-ceived tremendous feedback about the event – businesses, artists and crawlers alike were thrilled with the Crawl, said Michelle Zazulak, mem-bership and events coordinator for the DMRBIA.

“I think this is a great way to show-case our art as well as bring in custom-ers to the shops,” said an artist. “I took my neighbor to 16 or 17 locations, and she had only been in one of these locations before, and she has lived in Maple Ridge for over 17 years.”

Chills and Chocolate served

Arts&life

Harry Rote (Josh Osborne), who murdered her for self-dealing, presses Mike and Carlino into a scheme to re-cover the doll, which contains a fortune in smuggled heroin. The thugs return while Susy is present to continue their search. They assume Susy’s blindness will enable them to search her apart-ment for the doll under her very nose. Rote is a predator, and his stalking of Susy becomes ever more obvious as the blind woman’s predicament becomes ever more desperate.

“From the moment it starts to the moment it ends they must pay atten-

tion to what’s said,” advised Pauls. “It’s very much a thriller.”

Local actor Jessica Tabak makes her directorial debut in the play.

It was a case of Jekyll and Hyde for the senior boys of SRT as the Titans defeated the Garabaldi Rebels 5-3 in the opening game of the 2015 high school soccer season Thursday, Oct. 1 at Albion Sports Complex.

The Titans opened up a 5-0 lead over the Rebels in a truly dominating first half.

The Titans forced a number of early turnovers that quickly blew the game wide open.

SRT built a commanding 5-0 half time lead thanks to a hat trick by Bela Piocza and single markers by Jae Riley and Rhys Caverly.

However, the Rebels refused to played dead and scored three in the second half to make the final much more respectable.

Dylan McKamey scored a pair for the Rebels, with Alejandro Campa re-cording the other marker.

SRT head coach Emad Agahi said he really liked his team’s jump in the first half, especially early in the game.

“Our boys jumped out of the gate fast and I thought it was our pres-sure that led to a few early goals,” said Agahi.

However, the strong first half was not followed up in the second, said Agahi. The Titans’ head coach felt his

team lost its compete level after build-ing up such a big lead.

“We gave up a few goals at the end, which is disappointing. But it served as a learning experience for the guys to keep their intensity up for the full 70 minutes. I thought we stopped playing after the first half.”

Despite the disappointing second half, Agahi said the team’s back line of Brayden Lamont, Scott Martin, Trevor Solonynka and Mansukh Sid-hu was solid. The head coach said he’s tried to keep them playing together to start the year and he was surprised at how fast they’ve built up chemistry.

“We have lots of offensive play-ers on our team right now and I am still trying different guys in different positions to make sure we know ex-actly what our strongest lineup will be come playoffs at the end of the month,” said Agahi.

The head coach said after a strong performance in an exhibition match against Pitt Meadows and a win over Garabaldi to start the year, the team’s confidence is growing and the Titans should fight for a top seed in this year’s playoffs.

“I think with every game we will improve especially when I can finally get guys into positions which they feel comfortable in playing,” he said.

Titans jump on Rebels in season opener

Not even a natural hat trick by the slick skating Andrew Strelezki of the Ridge Meadow Flames could hold off the high-potent offence of the Mission City Outlaws on Fri-day at Planet Ice.

Despite the strong game by Strelezki, a Mission hockey grad, the Flames coughed up a 6-5 loss on home ice.

The Outlaws sit first overall in the Harold Brittian division and boast the league’s two top scorers in Bryce Pisiak and David McGowan, both with 22 points.

Despite what looked like it should have been a cake walk, the Flames rallied from three one-goal deficits to hang in with the Out-laws before Mission’s Pisiak buried

the eventual winner with just more than five minutes left in the third.

While Strelezki’s three-goal per-formance was good enough to gar-ner him the third star, it wouldn’t have been a stretch to give it to Flames goalie Jordan Hollett. The first-round pick of the Regina Pats in the 2014 WHL draft faced 61 shots Friday, 24 in the third period alone.

The Flames opened the scoring 9:29 into the first period when Nickolas Maydaniuk scored his first of the year on the power play.

Strelezki scored an unassisted marker 1:18 into the second to grab a brief lead before Mission’s offence scored two goals 29 seconds apart 6:19 into the middle frame to take a lead they would never give up.

Strelezki tied the game three 32

seconds later only to see Mission take a 4-3 lead with just 1:20 left in the second.

Strelezki tied the game 6:20 into the third to squared the contest 4-4.

After the Outlaws’ Pisiak scored on the power play with 8:10 left in the game, Flames rookie Tristan Tressel scored 59 seconds later to tie the game at five.

The Pitt Meadows Ma-rauders were done in by the big play as they dropped a 20-6 deci-sion under their home lights in senior AA high school exhibition football action.

The Marauders found themselves down 14-0 after the first half as Vernon Panthers’ Levi Nicholas ran for 150 yards on seven carries, including an 80-yard jaunt to put the visitors up by two scores at the half.

The Marauders were also burned for a 35-yard passing play to Zack Hyer, snaring a jump ball and then evading two defenders before scampering into the end zone.

Marauders head coach Matt Todd said he felt his team played solid on defence for the entire game, except for the two big plays. He’s hoping his team can correct the problem as they head into the heart of their schedule.

“We made mistakes and they took advan-tage of them,” said Todd. “The players need to learn from this and get ready this week for our first regular season game against Rick Han-sen.”

Haden Harty led the sluggish Marauders of-fence with 80 yards on 15 carries. Quinn Leat-herdale was the top receiver, catching four passes for 70 yards. On defence, Tayden Mount-ford had a interception and chipped with two tackles, while Garde 10 standout Brandon Hunt and Grade 12 Bai-ley Mountford lead the team with five tackles each.

• The Marauders trav-el to Abbotsford to play the Rick Hansen Hurri-canes on Friday, Oct. 9 at 3:45 p.m.

Junior varsityReese Hansford played

the hero, running back a 65-yard punt return late in the fourth quarter to give the Marauders a 29-22 win over the Robert Bateman Wolves on Sept. 30 and improved their re-cord to 1-1 on the season.

The Marauders led the game for the better part of four quarters before a late comeback by the Wolves set the stage for Hansford, who also rushed for 53 yards.

“We played a full game for the first time this sea-son,” said head coach Matt Todd. “We had a short bench, so it was a great effort by all the play-ers. We really stepped up.”

Brandon Hunt was a force on both sides of the ball, running for 125 yards and two TDs while registering eight tack-les on defence. Likewise for Tayden Mountford, who had four catches for 30 yards and a TD while

contributing eight tackles on the other side of the ball.
