Kevin Desmond doesn’t yet have a plan to fix TransLink’s battered public image, but says he is up for the challenge and will start by carefully listening to staff and passengers.

TransLink’s new CEO from Seat-tle takes the helm of the embattled transit agency at a time advocates hope will prove a turning point for the better.

“I like to climb mountains,” Des-mond said Wednesday when asked why he’d want the job.

Th e night after his wedding day, Gerry Gaudet was behind bars.

It was the end of January 1946.After getting married in Med-

icine Hat, AB, the soldier who had spent two-and-half years in Europe and had just taken a seven-day train ride across the country to fi nally see his long-time fi ancée Irene, reported to his depot in Calgary only to fi nd himself accused of being AWOL.

“Th e MPs came and got me out of the hotel and yanked me by the scruff of the neck and put me in the hoosegow,” says Gaudet, now 93 and widowed.

It took some begging the next day, but he was released and had his discharge from the army back-dated.

He was a civilian again and free to continue a romance that was to last decades.

Gaudet, who now lives in Guild-ford, fi rst met Irene when he was on duty in Medicine Hat in late 1942.

At the time, Gaudet was a member of a Royal Canadian Engineers unit building a prison-er-of-war camp. He and a buddy, both in uniform, met Irene and a girlfriend of hers on the street walking into a restaurant.

Gaudet and Irene were smitten, and a romance blossomed before

Gaudet was called away to war. He promised to keep writing while away and to marry her as soon as he got back home.

He kept both promises.Th e roughly 300 letters, now

in his possession, caught the attention of Langley’s Jennifer Th ompson about a year ago.

At the time, Gaudet and Th ompson’s late father John Th ompson received the Légion d’Honneur – France’s highest mil-itary award – in Cloverdale from the Consul General of France in Canada.

Jennifer Th ompson took some mental notes, then got to know Gaudet better after her father passed away last summer.

“Irene was just as much a part

of the war as Gerry was,” says Th ompson, having sifted through letters that Gaudet wrote to his love “Plum” during the war.

He wrote every two or three days, and she wrote back from home, but he wasn’t allowed to keep her letters after reading them. Only his letters to her remain.

And because of the two- or three-month delay in the deliv-ery of letters and packages, both Gaudet and Irene knew little of their opposite’s immediate day-to-day situations.

Gaudet wasn’t wounded during the war, but he did crash his motorcycle in England in early 1944. He spent two months in hospital.

After mending, he was tempo-rarily transferred to a unit other than his own, the 20th Field Company – engineers attached to the First Canadian Army.

He found himself on a barge bound for Juno Beach on D-Day, June 6, 1944.

Gaudet did what he could to stay alive for the next month until his 23rd Field Company caught up with him. He spent the rest of the war as a motorcy-cle dispatch rider, doing recon-naissance, clearing mines, mov-ing and repairing army vehicles, including boats, and building and repairing bridges.

JEFF NAGEL

B.C. is adding eight ambulances and 34 paramedics in the Lower Mainland as a first step as the government promises major re-forms to improve substandard emergency response times.

The new action plan – unveiled last Friday by B.C. Emergency Health Services (BCEHS) – calls for big changes to how minor emergency calls are handled. More on-the-spot treatment by paramedics or even medical advice by phone is likely rather than the standard practice of an ambulance ride to hospital.

“There are still too many patients waiting too long for an am-bulance who need one and there are too many patients receiving an ambulance and a transport to an ED (emergency department) that don’t require it,” BCEHS Executive Vice-President Linda Lupini said.

Accompanying the plan is an independent review that found it takes an average of 10 minutes and 24 seconds for ambulances to reach life-threatening calls in the Lower Mainland and Greater Victoria.

A new target of under nine minutes for 75 per cent of those critical calls is being adopted, in line with international standards.

And the review warns population growth and aging will drive up call volumes six per cent a year and push ambulance response times up to more than 15 minutes by 2020 if no improvements are made.

The eight extra ambulances that are being deployed include three in Surrey, two in Langley, two in Abbotsford and one on the North Shore. Extra paramedics have also been added in the Tri Cities.

But Lupini said that is just an immediate stop gap to relieve pressure, with much more improvement required through a com-bination of more resources and innovation.

Without changes in procedure, she estimated, up to 30 more ambulances would be required by 2020 and at least 10 single responder vehicles.

While more money is being requested, much of the planned reforms focus on other methods to speed up ambulance response times to critical calls and to cancel or redirect ambulance trans-

port for less urgent calls that can be handled differently.Lupini said many of those calls “could be dealt with by physi-

cians over the phone or a paramedic seeing and treating a patient without bringing a patient to an emergency room, because that’s what really ties up resources.”

The top reform priority is to reduce how long paramedics wait in hospital emergency departments to hand over incoming patients so they can get back on the road. Fraser Health hospitals are expected to be at the forefront of making the necessary ER reforms.

Faster dispatch and deployment times to get ambulances in service is another strategy.

The latest reform plan comes in the wake of ongoing complaints from municipalities and their fire departments of unacceptably long waits for ambulances to arrive and transport non-critical patients.

That was the result of a controversial restructuring of the B.C. Ambulance Service priority system that aimed to speed ambu-lances to life-threatening calls but often slowed it to others.

Surrey Fire Chief Len Garis said he’s optimistic about the changes.

“It should make it more of an efficient system,” he said.Ambulance Paramedics of B.C. president Bronwyn Barter said

the review confirms the service is “extremely understaffed” and argued more immediate staff increases are required.

But she said there are “a lot of positives” in the report, including the acknowledgement of the need for more resources and the move to reduce delays at hospitals, which consume 17,000 para-medic hours a year in urban areas.

NDP health critic Judy Darcy said the government should have acted sooner in light of years of public outcry.

She predicted the plan will leave many people “still falling through the cracks” – and they may include those less acute cases where a decision is made they don’t need an ambulance response.

“The devil is going to be in the details,” Darcy said. “Triaging over the phone is a very different kettle of fish than triaging when someone presents at an emer-gency room.”

The Texas-born and New York-raised general man-ager of King County’s Metro Transit system is no stranger to the problems and politics here – as well as the strengths.

Desmond said Metro Vancouver’s system has been a leader that he and others in Seattle have looked to with admiration and often tried to emulate.

“A lot works really well at TransLink,” he said, but added it has “suffered a bruise to its brand.”

Desmond vowed to restore public trust and confi-dence in the system while looking for more ways to make it more effective and efficient.

He takes over March 21 and will be the fourth CEO to head TransLink in just over a year since former longtime CEO Ian Jarvis was shuffled aside at the outset of last year’s failed transit tax plebiscite, followed by interim CEOs Doug Allen and Cathy McLay, who continues as chief financial officer.

The biggest challenge for Desmond will be convinc-ing the public to support TransLink after the “no” vote in a referendum that was widely regarded as a repudiation of the transit agency, rather than a rejec-tion of the Mayors’ Council plan to create a 0.5-per-cent sales tax to expand services across the region.

Inspiring public confidence hasn’t been easy for the parade of previous CEOs, who have each faced withering attacks from TransLink critics.

But Desmond is used to campaigning for public support. He has fought four previous plebiscites in Washington for transit tax increases – winning three and losing one.

Desmond skirted questions of what new funding source he’d prefer, nor would he directly answer when asked if he expects to fight another refer-endum here or came on condition there never be another vote on transit funding.

“The region needs to invest in the transit system,” he said. “What the path forward is I don’t know.”

Other significant challenges include completing the troubled Compass card project and fulfilling commitments to upgrade the SkyTrain system to make it more resilient to major shutdowns.

Desmond said Seattle’s Orca fare card was also slow to roll out but is now one of the best parts of the transit system there. He said he wants to focus on making Compass work rath-er than criticize how it has been launched to this point.

Desmond oversaw King County’s launch of light rail, bus rapid transit lines and street car service, while transit ridership grew 44 per cent.

The new appointment comes after the release last month of an internal report from former CEO Allen strongly criticizing both the province and area mayors for sometimes undermin-ing TransLink, as well as a lack of focus on increasing transit ridership.

The provincial government has so far resisted calls from Metro Vancouver mayors for further major governance changes at TransLink, arguing in part the new CEO will set a new constructive tone and put the organization on the right track.

Desmond’s salary will be $365,000 a year – less than Jarvis received and in the middle of the new CEO salary range approved by mayors last fall. He will also get a $1,500 per month housing allowance for the first year only.

Minister for TransLink and Surrey-Fleetwood MLA Peter Fassbender said the board has hired “a very capable individual at a salary that is appropriate.”

Ambulance reforms pledged

Eight extra ambulances are being deployed in the province to decrease the wait for emergency assistance, including three in Surrey, two in Langley, two in Abbotsford and one on the North Shore.Thirty-four more paramedics have also been added in the Lower Mainland.LEADER FILE

A woman who was found bound and naked with her throat cut is lucky to be alive thanks to the heroic efforts of a Surrey landlord over the weekend.

A 22-year-old man is now facing charges, also due in part to the intervention of landlord Adel Masoud and his family.

Just after 7:30 p.m. Sunday (Feb. 7), Masoud received a call from one of his tenants who said there was a huge commotion coming from next door.

Masoud went to the apartment behind his home in the 13400 block of 108 Avenue with his son, and a man inside the noisy unit opened the window and said everything was okay.

A few seconds later, Masoud

and his son heard a woman’s voice.

“He wants to kill me, he wants to kill me,” Masoud recalls.

The man closed the window and dashed to the door, Masoud said. “But she is faster than him… she came out of the apartment and fell on the ground.”

Masoud said her hands were bound in front of her, she was naked from the waist down and had a deep cut on her throat from her ear to the front of her neck.

Masoud’s son called police while Masoud held the apartment unit’s door shut so no one could get out.

The police came, a male suspect was arrested and the woman was taken to hospital.

“Thank God she’s alive now,” Masoud told The Leader Tuesday. “God was good. I’m really happy because I arrived at the right time.”

Kris Kelly, 22, is facing charges of attempted murder, unlawful confinement and aggravated sexual assault.

“He’s really a quiet guy, a nice guy,” Masoud said of his

previous experience with Kelly. “He’s come down to my office many times and had tea and sat with my children.”

Kelly has been a tenant in the unit for about two months, Masoud said.

Masoud said he had seen the woman one time before when she came to visit Kelly, but she didn’t live in the apartment, he said.

Kelly was scheduled to appear in Surrey Provincial Court on Wednesday.

Police are asking anyone with more information to contact Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502 or Crime Stoppers, if they wish to remain anonymous, at 1-800-222-TIPS or www.solvecrime.ca

After 20 years of representing B.C. coastal First Nations to negotiate what U.S.-directed activists labelled the Great Bear Rainforest agreement, a weary Dallas Smith expressed his relief and frustration.

At a ceremony to sign the final agree-ment in Vancouver last week, Smith, president of the Nanwakolas Council of remote Central Coast communities like Bella Bella, joked that he’s finally out of a job. Then he got serious.

“My communities still aren’t better plac-es to live yet,” he said. But the land use agreement with the province and forest companies over a vast coastal area up to the Alaska border means the years ahead will be better.

He said when he started it was like be-ing caught in a divorce between the B.C. forest industry and international environ-mental groups. Dutch-based Greenpeace,

its California offshoot ForestEthics and others moved on from their Clayoquot Sound battle to the B.C. coast, looking to continue the blockades against logging.

“It’s the First Nations of the Coast who stood up and said ‘no, this is how it’s going to work’,” Smith said.

How it’s going to work is that logging will continue on 550,000 hectares of coastal forest, with a greater share for First Nations, and with 85 per cent of the region preserved.

Formally begun 10 years ago with $30 million from Ottawa, $30 million from B.C. and $60 million from a group of wealthy U.S. family foundations with a larger anti-development agenda, the land use plan remains under attack.

Among the many protest outfits is Pacific Wild, which has specialized in Great Bear Rainforest campaigns and now needs a new enemy. Their credibility

was demonstrated recently when U.S. pop star Miley Cyrus decided to speak out against B.C.’s wolf kill. Cyrus had no idea about the struggle to preserve dwindling herds of mountain caribou. She barely knows where B.C. is, a fact made plain when Pacific Wild toured her around the North Coast, far from the Kootenay and South Peace regions where the wolves actually roam. Cyrus’s handlers spoon-fed statements to urban media, which played down the fact she was at the wrong end of the province spouting nonsense.

After periodically attacking their own B.C. agreement as inadequate, Green-peace and ForestEthics have moved on to what they call the “boreal forest,” which we like to call northern Canada. The same bully tactics with forest products customers and producers

have been featured.This time, a Quebec company that

signed an accord in 2010 is suing Greenpeace for “defamation, malicious falsehood and intentional interference in economic relations.”

Aboriginal companies on the B.C. coast will continue to log, including areas of old-growth forest and secondary growth. They will continue to export logs as economics dictate. They will continue to harvest animals, including grizzly bears.

And, I expect, they will continue to be subjected to attempts to supervise and direct them by members of urban soci-ety’s new religion, environmentalism.

Protesters fear peace in the forests

THIS WEEK’S QUESTION:

Last week we asked:

Do you think B.C.’s Family Day holiday(second Monday of February) should be changed to coincide with other provinces’ Family Day (third Monday of February)?

To answer, go to the home page of our website atsurreyleader.com

Do you like the idea of the City of Surrey switching its street lights to LED?Here’s how you responded:

Yes 74% No 26%

There’s a good chance that Mayor Linda Hepner’s campaign promise of Light Rail Transit coming to Surrey will be fulfilled.

Hepner initially said during the fall 2014 municipal campaign there would be an LRT line up and running within four years. In other words, in time for the next election. She later backtracked slightly, saying she expected the line would be under construction by 2018.

Hepner was given a massive endorsement by voters, with her Surrey First slate winning all nine council seats. Since the elec-tion, she was named vice-chair of the Mayors’ Council and, along with chair and Vancouver Mayor Gregor Robertson, pushed for a “yes” vote in a referendum on ad-ditional funding for TransLink. That of course failed, at least partially because of over-the-top spending by TransLink and local governments to try and ensure a positive outcome.

However, since that time, the federal Liberals won a majority government, winning all but one seat in Surrey. That’s put Surrey’s LRT line high on the list for in-frastructure funding. The Justin Trudeau government wants to build projects that will create jobs and promote a greener agenda. Electric-powered rapid transit fulfills both objectives.

Hepner was among a number of mayors from all over the

country, members of the big city mayors’ caucus, to meet with Trudeau and other federal repre-sentatives in Ottawa last week.

There has been some interest-ing discussion about this latest round of infrastructure spending in a number of forums. Many observers are suggesting that municipalities should not have to pay their traditional one-third share of the capital costs of such projects.

There is a good argument to be made in that direction. Munic-ipalities have limited sources of revenue, with property tax being the main one. TransLink, which is in effect an inter-municipal body, has suffered tremendously from the limited sources of fund-ing available to it. Its quest for more funds has been repeatedly fought by the public, most nota-bly in the recent referendum.

One reason that TransLink can’t expand bus routes in a significant way in growing cities such as Surrey is the pressure it is under from capital spending. It boosted the gas tax to help pay for the Evergreen Line project, which is still under construction. Its inability to take on more capital projects is one reason the Pattullo Bridge replacement proj-ect is nowhere close to getting off the drawing board.

If Surrey or regional taxpay-

ers only had to pay 10 per cent towards the capital costs of the LRT line, that would make it much more likely to proceed. It would be difficult to finance a one-third share of the cost through property taxes or other new taxes, such as the sales tax increase rejected by voters in the TransLink referendum.

The challenge of capital costs is one of the main reasons that Surrey has pushed for LRT, as opposed to an expansion of Sky-Train. LRT, because it is at-grade, is cheaper to build. The many critics of the Surrey LRT plans point out that travel times won’t be much different that they are now, via bus and car. They are correct. However, unless the federal and/or provincial govern-ments begin to pick up a larger share of the capital costs of the transit projects, it is unlikely that they will be built anytime soon.

Hepner has to be happy with how the planets have aligned for LRT. It seems very likely that the construction work for at least the first phase – the line along King George Boulevard and 104 Avenue – will be underway in time for the next election.

That should give her some ammunition for a re-election bid in 2018.

Dads of the past were often seen as a part of, but distant from, the family proper. How-ever things are changing – and for the better.

With the Family Day holiday fresh in our minds, it’s inter-esting to note that fathers not only want to spend equal time with their children, but when they do, it improves the health of the kids, mother and father.

Studies show more than two out of three fathers say that caregiving for their children should be a 50/50 proposition and they wanted to evenly divide this responsibility with their partners.

Furthermore, 80 per cent of fathers preferred quality family time over other quality down time.

Fathers are more than a nice, supportive add-on to the family system. Fathers matter. They bring a special way of nurturing and bonding that must be encouraged and affirmed for the benefit of the women, children and even men themselves.

Jeff Conners

Re: “ICBC takes aim at scam artists,” The Leader, Jan. 27.

The most widespread auto insurance fraud by far in this province is carried out by ICBC every time it denies or reduces a legitimate injury claim.

The first “fraudster” listed in this article, a guy who lifted a heavy box at work but claimed he couldn’t help his wife do dishes, is a great example.

Most anyone with any number of injuries is still ca-pable of lifting heavy objects, though it may cause her or him great pain and even aggra-vate the injury.

At home it’s a great excuse to get out of doing dishes. At work you could be fired if you

don’t grit your teeth and do so.

The Workers’ Compensa-tion Board used to advertise extensively that it was good to be active and work through the pain after an injury. Any-one “caught” by ICBC’s spies lifting heavy objects is doing what we are all told we need to do to recover. It’s not proof of anything.

It’s wrong for ICBC to avoid doing what we pay them to do: provide for those who are injured.

It’s a crime for a store that sells you an appliance to deliv-er an empty box. A legitimate claim denied or under-com-pensated by ICBC – whether to keep rates lower, fund the vast army of employees dedicated to keeping us from compen-sation, keep its many senior managers’ nests well feath-ered, or fund investments elsewhere – is just such an empty box.

SHEILA REYNOLDS

The man charged with killing a 17-year-old in Surrey in the fall of 2014 has been ordered by a

B.C. Provincial Court judge to stand trial for the murder.

Raymond Caissie is charged with second-degree murder in connection with Serena Vermeersch’s death on Sept. 15, 2014. The teen’s body was discovered a day later, after she was reported missing, in an area near 66 Avenue and 146 Street. Caissie was arrested four days later in Vancouver.

His arrest sparked outrage as he had been released from prison the year prior after serving a lengthy sentence for a violent sexual assault. B.C. Corrections issued a warning upon his release because he was considered at high risk to re-offend.

A Surrey judge determined there was sufficient evidence for Caissie to proceed to trial for Vermeersch’s murder following a preliminary hearing that concluded last Friday (Feb. 5).

Evidence from preliminary hearings is subject to a publication ban and can not be published.

Caissie’s next court date is April 28.

Police are investigating a shooting in Newton earlier this week.

On Tuesday at about 10:55 p.m., Surrey RCMP received reports of several shots fired near 84B Avenue and 141A Street.

Witnesses said they saw two cars leaving the scene. Police said they found shell casings and broken glass in the area.

No buildings were hit and there were no reports of injuries.

Lovers fall prey to scam artists

A Valentine’s scam making the rounds in Surrey is the “fake flow-ers” fraud.

A delivery company shows up at the victim’s door with a gift basket of flowers, chocolates and wine. The “delivery person” notes a card is being sent separately and explains a small surcharge is required to prove the basket wasn’t delivered to a minor.

The victim hands over their credit card (cash is not permitted) to the “delivery man,” who then swipes the victim’s personal info using a modified card reader.

If you are the victim of a fraud, contact Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502.

“Whatever they threw at you,” he says. “There was no special-ized job.”

His unit supported the boat rescue of a trapped Allied Forces army at Arnhem, Holland, in September 1944.

“We brought 3,500 of them back.”

Gaudet covered the route of the Canadian Army in Western Eu-rope: France, Belgium, Holland and Germany.

Following the medal ceremony a year ago, Thompson record-ed Gaudet’s story through interviews, photos and letters, as well as those of other veterans, including her father. She’s shared the stories with families of the veterans she’s met.

Earlier this year, she penned a tribute, “What Makes Love Last” (see below), based on Gaudet’s let-

ters to Irene while he was away.

Thompson says he’s an example of how love can be deeper than what contempo-rary romance is made out to be, especially around Valentine’s Day.

“Take if from an expert,” she advises.

Both Gaudet and fellow veteran and Légion d’Honneur re-cipient John Thomp-son were widowed years ago.

Both of their romances lasted 58 years.

What makes love last?

According to vet-eran Gerry Gaudet, it’s appreciating the simple things.

His friend, Jennifer Thompson, shares some of Gaudet’s in-sights from the mem-oir she is writing:

As he survived the battles of the Second World War, with the support of his beloved “Plum,” also known as Irene from his letters, there was a combina-

tion of things that kept love alive.

The couple’s story is about a journey – two people who dared to be real and openly honest. A couple who shaped a relationship that was years in the making and recorded in numerous letters Gerry sent home.

“Plum you can never imagine how much I love you! Darling if I can only have you, so I could call you mine, I would be the happiest boy in the world.

“Remember Plum, I will always love you. Remind me Plum, how you felt the first time we kissed. Could you dear remind me in your next letter?”

Gerry didn’t reveal his hands were still shaking as he wrote this, not mentioning the human guile of war that he has just witnessed.

What makes love last?

A combination of commitment, under-standing and friend-ship.

A solid relationship followed by a marriage contract.

Two people who

share a promise and dare to be honest and raw.

Living on a dream for the future.

Enduring the tempta-tions of loneliness.

During the Second World war, for more than three long years, Gerry waited to return to “The Hat,” the small town where he and his Plum first kissed and made their promise to each other.

For Gerry, was it love at first sight? Proba-bly. Irene was the only woman he completely loved. He met her as a boy and returned as a man. Would she still want him?

Plum was tired and done paying ransom to the wicked war. Now, after three long years, she needed his word. His commitment.

For 58 years follow-ing Gerry’s return, they would celebrate, as Gerry says, the sim-ple things in life.

Every day. Each other’s smile. Holding hands. A hot cup of cof-fee and a donut.

And most of all, the freedom to love. This proved to be enough.

-Jennifer Thompson

A new ‘safety record’—of sorts—was set in 2015. Th e US National Highway Traffi c Safety Administration recently reported that the almost 900 separate recalls aff ecting over 51 million vehicles last year beat the 2014 record of 803 separate recalls.

One reason for the increase: the millions of dollars in fi nes levied against Fiat Chrysler, General Motors and Takata Corp., the airbag manufacturer, for their tardiness in reporting safety problems seems to have motivated them to act faster, even where smaller numbers of vehicles are aff ected.

Another reason off ered by NHTSA administrator Mark Rosekind is the re-doubling of eff orts on the part of the NHTSA to spot defects faster. “But,” he says, “identifying defects is not enough; we have to make sure they get fi xed.”

Takata airbag infl ators have played a big role in this record-breaking year. Th e infl ators are metal cartridges loaded with propellant wafers. Exposure to moisture over time seems to be the cause of their otherwise unprompted explosion propelling shrapnel into the vehicle interior.

At least 11 people reportedly have died worldwide from the problem, and 139 have been injured. In the US, about 23 million Takata infl ators have been recalled on 19 million vehicles sold by 12 auto and truck makers. Government forecasts of more Takata recalls were promptly confi rmed in late January when Ford announced expansion of its ‘Takata’ recall after an infl ator exploded in a Ford Ranger in

December 2015 killing the driver. Ford’s January 26th recall includes 391,354 Ford Rangers, model years 2004 to 06 — 361,692 of which are in the US, and 29,334 in Canada.

Hard on the heels of the Takata problem, Continental Automotive Systems, in documents fi led with the US government has reported that moisture inside its airbag control computers may corrode the power supply resulting in the airbags failing to infl ate in a crash or deploying without a crash. Continental says the problem fi rst surfaced in January 2008 when it analyzed a malfunctioning control unit that was removed from a Mercedes. Investigations continued as incidents occurred in subsequent years.

Documents, posted February 4, 2016 on the NHTSA website say that the Continental recall will extend to cars dating as far back as 2006. Honda, Fiat, Volkswagen, and Mercedes have already issued these recalls; some unidentifi ed Mazda and Volvo Truck vehicles are also included. Continental says this recall will extend to up to fi ve million vehicles worldwide, less than two million of which are in the US.

It is reported that on average, within 18 months of a recall, 25 per cent of the vehicles covered remain unrepaired. In late January, the NHTSA launched a new public awareness campaign called Safe Cars Save Lives that “urges consumers to check for open recalls at least twice a year and to get their vehicles fi xed as soon as parts are available.”

Automakers are currently required to notify owners by fi rst class mail. More ‘modern’ methods of owner notifi cation —text messaging, email, social media are all being developed by the NHTSA as better ways of contacting owners and motivating them to respond.

JEFF NAGEL

An investigation has been ordered into allegations some Vancouver-area real estate agents and allied speculators engage in so-called “shadow fl ip-ping,” where they insert themselves as middle men in property deals to exploit local sellers and off shore buyers.

B.C. Superintendent of Real Estate Carolyn Rogers is to work with an advisory commit-tee of the Real Estate Council of B.C. to tackle the issue.

Contract assignments are legally allowed where the supposed home buyer doesn’t actually close the deal but sells the contract on to someone else. Standard assignment clauses can be invoked when a buyer is unable to close but fi nds another buyer rather than break the deal.

But realtors who are aware of or party to a scheme to re-sell

contracts without the knowledge of the seller and ultimate buyer may be in violation of their duty to act in their clients’ best interest.

“We are deeply concerned,” the Real Estate Council of B.C. said in a statement that described its response as “an urgent matter.”

It said the committee will probe whether assignment clauses are being used ap-propriately and make recommendations within 60 days on ways to boost enforcement and oversight of licens-ees that fail to disclose their investment in properties.

Th e real estate council is also urging anyone aff ected by the practice to come for-ward so it can investi-gate and discipline any agents found in breach of their legislated duties.

Finance Minister Mike de Jong said it was “troubling” that some realtors are al-leged to have not acted in the best interests of the sellers to get the best possible price.

“If there is evidence of a trend develop-ing where that is not taking place, where realtors are not disclos-ing for example their personal interest in a transaction, that is fundamentally wrong,” de Jong said.

NDP housing critic David Eby has called for a more formal independent inquiry, adding the real estate council declined to in-vestigate after he sent two letters in January outlining his concerns around contract as-signments.

Eby said the prac-tices of some realtors appear to involve fraud, insider trading, tax avoidance and the

dodging of federal dis-closure rules to control international money laundering.

De Jong said he will await the fi ndings of the real estate council, as the professional gov-erning body, but added the government could take further action if it’s unsatisfi ed with the outcome.

“Realtors are priv-ileged to be part of a self-regulating pro-fession, and that is a privilege.”

Th e practice of real-tors or proxies using assignments to profi t from the gap between typical local selling prices and what can be extracted from Chinese buyers unfamiliar with the market was report-ed on the weekend by the Globe and Mail newspaper.

Th e middle men can quickly profi t – to the tune of $500,000 in one example – without paying Property Trans-fer Tax because that’s only due from the fi nal buyer when title actu-ally transfers.

Realtors stand to make additional commissions when a home is shadow fl ipped – sometimes multiple times during a long closing period – be-tween the seller and fi nal buyer.

Critics say the activ-ity adds more fuel to an already overheated real estate market in Vancouver and some suburbs.

Vancouver Mayor Gregor Robertson said the existing tools to control property spec-ulation are “woefully inadequate” and reiter-ated his calls for action from the province.

“We cannot have housing treated as just a commodity,” Robert-son said.

Th e province is ex-pected to take further steps to address real estate market concerns

when it hands down the budget later this month.

Tsur Sommerville, professor at UBC’s Sauder School of Busi-ness, said he doubts assignment fl ipping is a major force propel-ling the hot market, but more a symptom of it.

He noted speculative fl ipping of assignments was common in the pre-sale condo market several years ago when condo prices were rising fast.

“Th e primary cause is prices are going up really quickly and sellers don’t know what their property is worth,” Sommerville said of the emergence of assignment resales in the detached house market.

It’s unclear how much shadow fl ipping is happening, he said, but added the losers include the original sellers who could have got more, the ultimate buyer who overpays, governments who may lose out on taxes, and society in general if trust is lost in the system.

“I think it’s import-ant to take action on this,” Sommerville said.

“It’s imperative that the real estate industry address issues that raise concerns about the ethical behaviour of their agents. A feeling that the prop-erty market is rigged I don’t think is a healthy thing.”

He said potential re-forms could include re-quirements to register assignments, to charge Property Transfer Tax when they’re traded and to also charge the transfer tax on companies that hold property but currently can be traded without incurring the tax.

Simon Fraser University was high-ly visible at the inaugural #BCTECH Summit that took place in Janu-ary at the Vancouver Convention Centre.

In addition to technology displays from student entrepreneurs at the SFU Innovates booth, SFU research was featured at both the Technology Showcase and Research Row.

SFU representatives were on hand at the Career Showcase to speak to secondary and post-secondary students who are interested in the industry, and several invest-ment-ready companies affi liated with SFU pitched to elite investors.

During the summit, entrepre-neurs, investors, researchers, stu-dents and government explore new ideas on how to gain a competitive advantage for B.C.

Th e event sparked discussion on directions for the province’s rapidly developing high tech sector, while several streams will illustrate and share new innovations.

“Th is event provides us with an opportunity to showcase how SFU students, faculty, alumni and client companies are stimulating innovation and creating jobs and opportuni-ties for British Columbia,” said SFU

Vice-President Research Joy Johnson. “And it highlights the work we’ve been doing to inspire, develop and support impact-driven innovation and entrepreneurship through SFU Innovates.”

SFU Innovates was launched last October to synergize and strengthen the university’s activities and resourc-

es related to community and industry engagement, incubation and acceleration, entrepreneur-ship and social innovation.

Johnson introduced the sum-mit’s keynote address by Eric Ries, Silicon Valley entrepreneur and author of Th e Lean Startup, on How today’s Entrepreneurs Use Continuous Innovation to Create Radically Successful Businesses.

SFU Faculty of Applied Sci-ences professor Ryan D’Arcy was a panelist at a session titled Industry Deep Dive – Healthcare, moderated by Paul Drohan, CEO, Life Sciences BC. He shared how Surrey’s thriving Innovation Boulevard (IB) is progressing. SFU is a founding partner of IB and contributes via the universi-ty’s research strengths in health and technology and its focus on health tech innovation.

Steven Jones, an SFU professor of molecular biology and bio-chemistry, and associate director and head of bioinformatics at the Michael Smith Genome Scienc-es Centre, BC Cancer Agency,

participated on a panel titled Shaping the Future of Health – moderated by Minister of Health Terry Lake.

Igor Faletski, CEO of Mobify (and an SFU alumnus) participated in the “Why BC?” session, moderated by Bill Tam, CEO of the BC Technology Industry Association.

Frank Hurt Secondary Grade 12 student Tyson Fisher has been selected as one of 20 students in Canada to trav-el to Vimy Ridge in April, thanks to the Vimy Foundation.

Th e Vimy Pilgrimage Award consists of a fully funded, week-long educational program in Belgium and France to study Canada’s tremendous First World War eff ort.

Th is trip, scheduled for April 3–11, includes daily fi eld trips to important First World War sites.

Applicants were required to submit a motivation letter (a maximum of 500 words) outlin-ing the reasons they are worthy of the award.

Th e Vimy Pilgrimage Award recognizes the actions of young people who demonstrate outstanding service, positive contributions, notable deeds,

bravery or leadership. Th eir acts may have served their peers, schools, commu-

nities, province or country. Scholastic achievement is not a criterion for this award. In choosing award winners, the Award Committee will

put great weight on the enthusiasm and intent illustrated in the motivation letter.

NEW HOME DEVELOPMENT

“One of the simplest reasons for a subject to sale is that it gives the family or

individual the chance to move out of their old house and into their new one without

the need to rent elsewhere.”

It’s a common question that can feel like a housing market merry-go-round: do you sell your home before you buy, or do you buy your new home before you sell?January was the hottest month on record – at least for the real estate market. According to the Fraser Val-ley Real Estate Board, sales were up a whopping 57 percent over January 2015, and while it can be a lucrative opportunity as a seller, it leaves many buyers scrambling to fi nd a suitable home. Louise McKnight, Associate Broker/Partner at Bay Realty Ltd further explains how low inventory and a low Canadian dollar are contributing to a sellers’ market. Th e low dollar, she says, is motivating the Chinese investor to purchase real estate, while multiple off ers has become commonplace. In a balanced market or a “buyers’ market” a subject to sale agreement is fairly common practise. Th is clause allows buyers to purchase their new home, subject to their cur-rent home selling by a certain date. However, in a “sellers’ market,” which the market is currently con-sidered, it would be rare to have a subject to sale accepted.Th at’s because, as McKnight ex-plains, many sellers are presented with multiple off ers on their home and will opt for the sure sale rather than a subject sale.

“[Th e market] is very, very, active, almost to the overheated category,” says Michael Trites, Managing Bro-ker/Sales Associate at Royal LePage Northstar Realty. “Selling over the listed price is more the norm rather than the exception, and at prices that are sometimes diffi cult to rationalize.”Matt Morrow, Realtor at RE/MAX 2000 Realty, agrees. “I've been a realtor for 10 years and although I've been through some crazy markets, I haven't experi-enced anything quite like this,” he says. “Th e market is being fuelled by an all time low level of invento-ry, low interest rates, and lots of buyers. Prices of homes have increased nearly $10,000 a week for the past 2-3 months.”He adds that sellers won’t consider a subject to sale off er and in most cases you won't stand a chance hav-ing any conditions in your off er. Th at goes for fi nancing and/or inspections too. “If there's 10 off ers on a home, more than half will be free of all condi-tions these days, and deposits are being handed over at the time of the off er,” says Morrow. “An awkward spot to be in as a buyer, but plenty of buyers are willing to off er way over asking price with no conditions and, of course as a seller, you want the best off er.”One of the simplest reasons for a

subject to sale is that it gives the family or individual the chance to move out of their old house and into their new one without the need to rent elsewhere.If buyers fi nd themselves without the subject to sale option, the question

remains: do you rent back from the new owners of your home until you fi nd something? “Th at is happening quite regularly [and] it seems to be a win-win if done properly,” says Trites. “It can be a term of the Con-tract of Purchase and Sale, or a separate rental agree-ment can be prepared.”As for what to do with all of your “stuff ,” while you make the move? McK-

night says it’s a great opportunity to declutter and to use moving as an opportunity to take a critical look at your home decor and personal items. If a signifi cant “decluttering” is needed, consider renting a storage unit or a storage pod that can be delivered to your home, self packed, and taken away. “Try not to store items that you will not use at your new home,” she says. “Th is may be the perfect time for a garage sale!”As for fi nal advice for people in the situation of renting while they look to buy, Trites recommends reviewing the rental agreement before signing to be sure it’s a month-to-month agreement and not a lease.

“Leases most likely will contain penalties for early termination, whereas month-to-month tenancies require one rental period’s notice to terminate,” he says, It’s a very tough market to be a buyer in, which is why Morrow’s fi nal piece

of advice is to consider lightening your “needs list” and just get back into the market. “[Maintain] constant communica-tion with your Realtor,” he says, “and be ready to jump both feet in.”

The Valley West Hawks continued their march to a BC Hockey Major Midget League (MML) pennant, win-ning two home games

against the fourth-place Okanagan Rockets last weekend.

The Hawks topped Okanagan 4-1 Saturday night at the Sungod Arena, then toppled the Rockets 5-2 Sunday morning at the Langley Events Centre.

Valley West has now won 15 of their last 16 games, and with a 27-6-1 (win-loss-tie) record are tied for top spot with the

Cariboo Cougars. The Hawks have six games remaining on the sched-ule, all against teams with records at or below .500. The Cougars play just four more games, all on the road against the Rockets and the third-place Vancouver Giants.

Saturday’s game marked the only time the Hawks will play at Sungod, which was the home rink for a number

of Valley West skaters in recent years.

“Saturday was a weird game. Playing our first game at North Delta’s Sungod Arena brought a different energy to our squad,” said Hawks head coach Jessie Leung. “We have four players that got their start with North Delta Minor Hockey and you had a sense that they were anxious to show their best.”

Goaltender Nic Tal-larico kept the Hawks in the game, making 32 saves. Colten Gerlib gave Valley West a 1-0 lead midway through the first period, and the Hawks maintained that advantage into the third period despite the Rockets having the edge in play.

“Tally (Talarico) played maybe his best game of the season,” said Leung. “We were flat for most of the second period and he bailed us out.”

Okanagan tied the game early in the third period, but the Hawks took control over the final 10 minutes of

play. Justyn Gurney of North Delta netted the winning goal, Ian Ross added an insurance tally and Ben Evanish scored his league-leading 33rd

goal of the season into an empty net.

The Hawks got the jump on the Rockets Sunday morning, taking a 2-0 lead after 20 min-

utes and never looking back. James Malm of Langley had a hat trick, with Max Duchnycz and Michael Farren adding a goal each. Christian Bosa, Ian Ross and Olover Alcock each were credited with a pair of assists.

Reece Klassen played a strong game in the Hawks net.

Valley West will now play twice against the seventh-place Van-couver Chiefs next weekend, looking to put some distance between themselves and Cariboo.

“Looking at the stand-ings, it would be easy to say we’re into a lighter part of our schedule,” said Leung. “However, it is a challenge of a dif-ferent sort. We expect a good series from the Chiefs, they’re coming off their bye week and are fighting for seeding down the stretch.”

The Chiefs will host the first game Satur-day at 3:30 p.m. in Coquitlam, with the Hawks being the home team Monday night at 8:15 p.m.

NICK GREENIZAN

Logan Mostat picked a perfect time to score his first-ever BC Hockey League goal.

His first three goals, in fact.

Six minutes into the third period of the Surrey Eagles’ road game against the Prince George Spruce Kings Saturday night, the 18-year-old BCHL rookie – who joined the Surrey Eagles ear-lier this season from the Junior B Chase Heat of the Kooteney International Junior League – scored the winning goal to give the Birds a 4-3 win.

“Logan has really been putting in the work so it’s nice to see a guy like that get rewarded,” said Eagles coach Blaine Neufeld.

“It was a good way to cap off the road trip. It makes for a much better drive home from Prince George when you can get a win.

“We kind of had the ‘bus legs’ for Friday’s game, but I really thought Saturday was

a good response.”The goal gave the

Eagles just their seventh win of the season, and though they were not able to duplicate the feat for the rest of the week-end – on Friday, Sur-rey began the week-end with a 9-3 loss to the Spruce Kings, and also dropped a Family Day matinee to the Coquitlam Ex-press – Mostat again did his part.

After getting his first one out of the way Saturday, Mostat – a Salmon Arm res-ident – scored twice more Monday, in a 7-3 losing effort to the Express at South Surrey Arena.

Mostat’s played 11 games for the Eagles this season, scoring three goals and add-ing three assists. He has also played nine games with the Salm-on Arm Silverbacks dating back to the 2013 season, but had yet to record a point.

Mostat wasn’t the only Eagles’ rookie to shine in Saturday’s victory. Gage Mackie – a native of Anchor-age, Alaska who will play for Arizona State in 2017 – led the team offensively with a pair of goals en route to first-star honours, and defenceman Nick

Azar also added one. Veteran netmind-

er Justin Laforest stopped 24 of 27 shots on goal to earn the victory between the pipes.

The winning per-formance was a far cry from Friday night’s af-fair, which saw the Eagles fall behind 3-2 after 20 minutes, before giv-ing up four more unanswered in the second period. Prince George tacked on two more goals in the third frame to ice the victory.

Brett Stewart, Tyler Cooper and Mackie

scored for the visiting Birds.

On Monday after-noon, Mostat pro-vided most of the offence, with rookie Jeff Stewart scoring the team’s other goal. Mackie added a pair of

assists. Offence

for the home side was hard to come by largely due to the play of Coquitlam goalie

Lawson Fenton, who proved to be the difference maker by stopping 41 Surrey shots.

“We got a lot of shots, and I thought we controlled the play

a fair bit, but we’ve got to start learn-ing the difference between a scoring chance and just putting a shot on net. There’s a difference between an outside shot and a real scoring chance, and it takes a lot of effort to get to those scoring areas,” Neufeld said.

The Eagles – who were officially elim-inated from BCHL playoff contention three weeks ago – now sit with a record of 7-40-0-2 (win-loss-overtime loss-tie).

Prior to the team’s road trip to Prince George, Neufeld told Black Press his team’s goal was to win at least five of their remaining 11 games. Surrey will need to win four of its final eight to achieve that goal.

They hosted the Langley Rivermen last night (Thursday) after press deadline, and will get another chance to get into the win column Sunday afternoon, when they host the Wenatchee Wild.

“We’ve played some good games against them this year – we led 2-1 against them until late, the last time we played, so there are some things we’d like to clean up, but I think it’ll be a good game,” Neufeld said.

“As well, we’ve got two guys – Gage Mackie and Dono-van Ott – who were formerly part of that (Wenatchee) organi-zation, so you always have a bit of an extra edge in a situation like that.”

BLACK PRESS

Canadian Blood Services is asking people to make regular blood donation a goal in 2016. Why not fi nd

out your blood type and give the gift of life throughout the year.

Finding new O-nega-tive donors in partic-ular is a key challenge every year, since the

demand for this blood type is much higher than its natural occur-rence in the general public.

While all blood types help patients,

O-negative blood is in particular demand by hospitals because it is the only type compati-ble with all other blood types. O-negative blood is used in the

most critical situa-tions: for neonates; patients with compro-mised immune sys-tems; and for trauma victims. When seconds count, someone’s life is

on the line, and there’s no time to check blood type, hospital patients in an emergency sit-uation can all receive O-negative blood.

Across the country, an estimated seven per cent of Canadians have O-negative blood, but this blood type rep-resents close to 12 per cent of all units sent to hospitals. Only about 41,000 of our current 410,000 active donors are O-negative. Cana-dian Blood Services is striving to increase the existing pool of O-negative donors to 50,000.

If you know your blood type is O-nega-tive, book an appoint-ment to donate as soon as possible at blood.ca.

Chances are someone in your family also has O-negative blood. En-courage them to book with you.

Th ose who are unsure what their blood type is and want to help can book an appointment to donate blood, and you’ll receive a donor card confi rming your blood type in the mail after your donation. Alternatively, you can attend a “What’s Your Type” event hosted by Canadian Blood Services.

You can fi nd an event near you by visiting blood.ca

Also stay tuned for a fun new peer-to-peer initiative rolling out in February that Cana-dian Blood Services hopes will inspire and challenge more Cana-dians to donate blood and give life.

To be eligible to donate you must be at least 17 years of age, in general good health and feeling well on the day of your dona-tion. Individuals are encouraged to bring a friend or family mem-ber to donate with them and to please remember to make another appointment to donate.

Surrey area residents can donate blood at the Surrey Blood Donor Clinic, 15285 101 Ave., which is open Wednes-days and Th ursdays from 1-7 p.m. and Fridays and Saturdays from 8:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.

Saving lives in 2016 begins with a click of a button. To discover all the ways you can help save a life and to book an appoint-ment, download the GiveBlood app or visit blood.ca

Mary was born in Calgary and grew up in Vancouver, receiving Bachelors and Masters degrees from the University of British Colum-bia, then going on to receive her M.D. from University of Western Ontario in 1948. She and her husband Edwin Markowski, settled in Cloverdale B.C. where she practiced family medicine for decades, fi nally retiring in 1998 at the age of 80. She had three children of her own as well as many other interests. The gardens she planted are some of her legacies. So are the lives she touched through her long and rich life.

McRAEJames William

Jim passed away peacefully on January 11, 2016 in Langley, BC. He was born in Ft. McLeod, AB on May 22, 1928. The family migrated to the Lower Mainland shortly after, where Jim resided for the remainder of his life. He is predeceased by his parents, James Ewen and Erna Angela McRae, sister, Alix McRae Rob-inson and niece, Shelley Corinne Walker.He is survived by nieces, Carol Leigh Robinson and Teresa Gail Robinson and

nephew, Stephen Glen Robinson. Jim developed a love for both air-planes and fast cars early in his life. He was a long standing mem-ber of the Sports Car Club of BC going back to the late 1950’s. He was well known at both Westwood “Mile High” Motorsports Park and then later at the Mission “Rivers Edge” Raceway. Jim was also a founding member of the Motorsport Emergency Turnworkers As-soc which has promoted safety in BC Motorsports for over 40 years. Jim fi nally realized his dream of owning an airplane when he pur-chased his Aeronca Champ in the 1970’s and when he was not out chasing race cars he would be seen fl ying the skies far and wide even to Oshkosh, WI. In 2010 Jim was inducted into the Greater Vancouver Motorsport Pioneer Society in recognition of his many years of volunteer work. He will be sorrowfully missed.

A memorial service to honour Jim will be held at the Langley Airport on February 20th, 2016 at the Cdn Museum of Flight at 5333 216 Street, Langley, BC from 2 PM to 4 PM. In lieu of fl owers please do-nate to the BC Cancer Foundation.

GREENWOOD Marcella Maria “Marcy” (nee Lange)

July 30, 1933 - February 5, 2016

Marcy passed away peacefully at the Chinook Care Hospice at the age of 82.

Marcy was the beloved wife ofRodrick “Rod” Greenwood for 60 years, and precious mother to Holly (Ken Hansen) and Sandra (Terry Boos). Her memory will be cherished by her grandchildren Brianne Thomp-son (Jeff), Joshua Hansen (Ashley),

Taylor Boos (Kim) and Caylie Boos (Dave Boucher). Dearly loved GG to Aiden, Finn, Madalyn, Weston, and soon to be Baby Boos. Marcy is also survived by her brother Alf Lange. She was prede-ceased by her parents Nicholas and Clara Lange.

Marcy was born in Englefeld, SK. She went on to work as a nurse at the Watson Hospital. Marcy traveled to Vernon, BC where she met Rod. From there they moved to Vancouver, where they were mar-ried. As Rods’ career progressed, they moved to many places in Canada, fi nally settling in Ottawa to raise their family. Marcy found passion in her pursuits wherever they were located. She was very active in curling, baseball, politics, nursing, toastmasters and yes, even Revenue Canada. Above all else, it was her time with her family that brought her the most joy. Marcy will be dearly missed by all she touched.
