Election nomination period ends Fridayby Matthew HoekstraStaff Reporter
Anyone with a dream of becoming mayor, councillor or school trustee has until Friday at 4 p.m. to file nomi-nation papers for the Nov. 19 election.
There is no fee to file nom-ination papers and winning candidates will be able to hold office in Richmond for three years.
Several all-candidates meetings have already been organized ahead of the elec-tion.
On Nov. 2, the Richmond Chamber of Commerce will offer residents a chance to hear from mayoral and council candidates at the Executive Airport Plaza Ho-tel (7311 Westminster Hwy.) at 6:15 p.m.
Coinciding with the all-candidates meeting will be another at the same hotel—this one for school trustee candidates, and hosted by the Richmond Community Services Advisory Commit-tee.
The Richmond Centre for Disability is also planning an all-candidates meeting. The location is yet to be confirmed, but the date is set for Nov. 7.
On Nov. 9, the Richmond Community Services Advi-sory Committee will host its second all-candidates meeting, this one for may-oral and council candidates, at Richmond Cultural Centre (7700 Minoru Gate) at 6:30 p.m.

Pickers fl ock to pumpkin patch Fall tradition continues at Richmond Country Farmsby Matthew HoekstraStaff Reporter
The fi elds are full, the corn mazes are cut and the wagon fi ddlers are ready.
The pumpkin patch at Richmond Country Farms is now open, and the Steveston Highway farm is already attracting hordes of pint-sized pumpkin-pursuers.
Each year thousands of children and their par-ents visit the patch to pick pumpkins and catch glimpses of mascots Polly Pumpkin and Korny Corn. Music is a mainstay, with musicians en-tertaining visitors on their wagon ride to the patch.
Clare DeLune has been working the patch for 20 years—singing on the wagon, singing on the stage and helping people on and off wagons. This year’s harvest, she said, looks good.
“It’s interesting because it was such a late spring, but it’s very good—they look beautiful,” she said of the crop.
This week, the weather forecast was downright spooky, but DeLune claims the sun is always shining over the patch.
“Even if it’s raining somewhere else, it’s almost certain that it’ll either be barely trickling down here or the sun will be shining,” she said.
Pumpkins are close to DeLune’s heart—and stomach. The singer has done plenty of cooking for northern mining camps, and has found lots of uses for the gourd-like squash: pie, bread, muf-fi ns and even eggnog. She’s also learned it’s a real treat for man’s best friend.
Said DeLune: “Pumpkins are like magic food for dogs. They love it and it’s really, really good for them. If a dog has an upset stomach a pumpkin will fi x it.”
The pumpkin patch, located at 12900 Steveston Hwy., is open weekdays from 9 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. and weekends from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Call 604-274-0522 for more information.

Tragedy strikes Saturday, but Tsai family hoping for some good news
by Matthew HoekstraStaff Reporter
A distraught Richmond family is desperately searching for their missing dog Lilo, hoping it won’t meet the same fate as their other beloved pet that also bolted last weekend.
“I’m crying all the time. It’s really hard for my family,” said Frank Tsai. “When I go home I can hear the barking, but its very quiet now.”
On Saturday the Tsai family took a day trip to Seattle and left their three miniature schnauzers in the care of a family friend. A realtor was hosting an open house in their home that day.
When the family returned home with their dogs, Lilo and Oreo were let outside in the backyard, while their third miniature schnauzer Stitch, stayed inside. But when the family went to retrieve Lilo and her mother Oreo, all they found was an open gate.
Family and friends immediately combed the streets in search for the two dogs. Later that night, a call came in: Oreo had been
found nearly four kilometres away, hit by a car.Frank and his son Alvin arrived at the scene and rushed their
pet to the nearest veterinarian who could see her on the holiday weekend. But Oreo died en route.
The news hit the family hard, especially 11-year-old Alvin, a Review carrier who had an inseparable bond with Oreo. Alvin knew his dog was getting older, his dad said, but never imag-ined death would come this way.
Said Frank: “He told me, ‘What should I do? Father, I don’t have Oreo.’ I told him, ‘Now I replace Oreo. I stay with you all the time. Don’t worry.’ He really wants Lilo to come back because Lilo is Oreo’s daughter.”
Lilo the miniature schnauzer is black and grey, two years old and was last wearing a purple collar in the neighbourhood of St. Albans and Blundell roads. Anyone with information is asked to call Frank at 604-295-0768.
Family in desperate search for dog
A Richmond family is searching desperately to fi nd Lilo, a miniature schnauzer, who ran away from her Richmond home Saturday.
Alvin Tsai cuddles Oreo, who ran away from home Saturday with her offspring Lilo. Oreo has since died after being hit by a car, while Lilo is still missing.

Gas tax will rise two cents, talks turn to finding new sources
by Jeff NagelBlack Press
A fi ll-up in Metro Vancouver will cost motorists an extra two cents a litre in TransLink tax starting next April.
Sixteen mayors approved TransLink’s supplemen-tal plan Friday by an 81-34 population-weighted vote – a 70-per-cent majority.
It ensures the long-stalled Evergreen Line to Co-quitlam is fi nally built and delivers a variety of other transit upgrades across the region, partly funded through the gas tax increase.
But more new fees targeting drivers could be on the way, such as an annual vehicle levy or road pricing, as a result of the vote.
At least that’s what most mayors hope hap-pens.
The Metro cities and the province are now com-mitted to try to negotiate various new sources for TransLink to cover nearly half of the extra $70 million per year required to fund the transit expan-sion plan.
It’s a big leap of faith for the mayors, who are trusting that Victoria will deliver and not leave them in the lurch once again.
If the province gets cold feet or otherwise refuses to sign off on new sources, a $23 average property tax increase takes effect instead.
“This is not the end of the road—this is the be-ginning of the road to the solution,” Langley City Mayor Peter Fassbender said.
Surrey mayor Dianne Watts said a “fair tolling policy” must be part of the debate, to end the inequity of some Metro residents paying more in tolls than others.
“We have a year,” Watts said. “If we can’t do this in a year, I think we should all just walk away from the table. If for whatever reason it fails I will not be sitting at this table.”
Approval was assured because Surrey and Van-couver had enough weighted votes to pass the plan with only a few other cities on board.
Six mayors opposed the plan: Richmond’s Mal-colm Brodie, Burnaby’s Derek Corrigan, Delta’s Lois Jackson, Langley Township’s Rick Green, Pitt Meadows’ Don MacLean and New Westminster Mayor Wayne Wright.
Several mayors predicted Victoria will back out and refuse to grant new sources – especially ones sure to be contentious as the next provincial elec-tion nears – leaving them stuck with the unwanted property tax.
“Can you imagine how diffi cult a road pricing debate is going to be and how divisive that is going to be in our region?” Brodie asked.
“I’m afraid I don’t have that kind of faith,” Jack-son added.
TransLink has tried to get on sustainable fi nancial footing before.
It had the green light to impose a $75 per vehicle levy in 2000 but the Opposition Liberals fought it and the NDP government scrapped it in a bid to shore up votes.
More recently, TransLink adopted a parking stall
tax, but the Liberal government decided it was unac-ceptable and killed it, amid a governance overhaul that took control away from the elected reps.
Some mayors, such as Brodie, wanted to approve just the two-cent gas tax for the $1.4-billion Ever-green Line, chop the other spending in the plan and avoid the risk of a property tax hike.
But others said they couldn’t support an Ever-green Line only solution – nor was it possible be-cause mayors had no power to amend the plan crafted by TransLink’s unelected board.
Changes to the governance structure giving cit-ies more control of the spending priorities is a key demand of the mayors.
Corrigan said the province will only grant real reform if the mayors take a stand and freeze the fl ow of new cash to TransLink.
“You cannot go on being treated like sheep,” he told other Metro mayors. “We have to have our own Boston tea party.”
The provincial government still has to pass leg-islation this month enabling the TransLink gas tax increase from a current 15 cents a litre to 17 cents next spring.
As soon as the increase is legislated, the province is expected to move quickly to issue a request for proposals for the Evergreen Line—likely before the end of the year—setting the stage for a construc-tion start next year.
A jubilant Mayor Joe Trasolini of Port Moody said his city will reverse a development freeze as soon as the project advances.
NDP transportation critic Harry Bains said the Opposition will support the two-cent gas tax hike when it goes to a vote in Victoria to ensure the Evergreen Line proceeds.

Published every Wednesday and Friday by Black Press Ltd. The black cat
showed up about a week
ago, following my daughter home on a sunny day.
He was beautiful, silky and strong, and the friendliest cat I’d met. By evening, he’d enchanted our entire household. While we diligently searched for his owner, secretly, we decided that it wouldn’t be so bad if the cat stayed.
We named him Felix and put a bed outside under the house so he’d be comfortable while he decided whether he was a stray or not.
An entire week was spent spoiling the cat and slowly introducing him to our other pets.
Life was good.Then yesterday hap-
pened. It was a tough day anyways, a million things on the go, work, school, and negotiating amongst the pets,Felix, and a trio
of enthusiastic, cat-loving kids. I got a phone call in the midst of the mayhem. It was the hospital.
The routine mammo-gram I’d had done had a problem. I’d have to go in for another test and an ultrasound.
Everything stopped for me. The blood rushed in my ears and I seemed to move in slow motion. I booked another ap-pointment and called my doctor for details. There’d been a low risk irregular-ity in my test,
“Don’t worry. It’s prob-ably fine.” Probably.
At that moment, I start-ed living in the “What if?” What if it wasn’t some benign tissue? What if I got cancer like my moth-er did? What if I never saw my children gradu-ate, get married or have their own kids? I went to bed that night thinking about what could be. It
was a long night.And in the morning,
the cat had disappeared. Despite the shaking of treats and an exhaustive search of the neighbour-hood, Felix was nowhere to be seen. I tried reas-suring my kids, “Tom cats do this kind of thing” and “Maybe he’s back with his old family.” Maybe.
I began to relate the missing black cat and my health, two upsetting things that happened nearly simultaneously but which whispered the same message: your fortune can change like the weather. One moment you’re rolling in the back yard with the kids, the next you are contemplat-ing your mortality. One day there’s someone (or something, like Felix) in your life and the next day they’re gone.
You have to grab happi-ness with both hands be-
cause it may be fleeting. Kiss your kids, pet the cat, tell your loved ones how important they are to you. You don’t know what tomorrow (or the next phone call) may bring.
I’ll probably be just fine. The cat may very well be mewing at the front door when I wake up tomorrow. I’ll have the test done and go on with my life.
In the meantime, the “what if?” will make me hold on ever so much tighter to the important people in life. I’ll try to shift living the “what if?” to living in the precious here and now. Life is just too short.

Living in the ‘What if?’
Life LessonsAndrea Phillpotts
One of the hot topics at the recent Union of B.C. Municipalities con-vention is BC Hydro ’s controversial
decision to bring in smart meters.This has been an issue for many people around
the province.Aside from some fears over radiation, there are
legitimate public concerns over privacy, loss of jobs for meter readers and billing based on time of use.
And in Richmond, there have been some issues with installation, including the case of a North Rich-mond man, whose power was cut after a smart me-ter installer claimed to have uncovered a marijuana grow-op at his home. There was no grow-op.
However, the smart meter issue boils down to one simple fact. The government pushed the idea through without proper consultation, and has con-tinued to stick with the proposal despite a change in leadership and a new minister of energy, who has already taken a much closer look at all aspects of Hydro’s operations.
Energy Minister Rich Coleman is perhaps one of the most pragmatic members of the cabinet. He was asked by former premier Gordon Campbell to take on many challenging fi les, and he relishes hard work.
He has already shown a willingness to make some changes in the way Hydro does things.
Thus it would be no real problem for him to ask Hydro to delay the smart meter program, at least until there has been full consultation with the public.
Coleman knows, as do all members of the cabi-net, that this lack of proper consultation is what doomed the HST, and it is unlikely that he would like to see a repeat of that fi asco.
BC Hydro could arrange a series of public meet-ings on the topic, and give the public a chance to ask questions and present their views. Hydro can bring out experts on smart meters and also outline exactly why the corporation feels they are so important.
Hydro and the government have not handled this issue well thus far, but there is still time to rectify much of the damage.

Editor:The Family Day holiday cannot be
more welcomed than for the teach-ers, MLAs and municipal employ-ees. They certainly need their time off.
We anticipate that the “workers” at the bureaucratic day care (city hall) and the legislative assembly will get additional time in lieu of their abnormal non sitting days and fl ex days. At the moment it is almost impossible to make contact
on Fridays and Mondays. Then again the teachers will work
the day into their professional development scheme of things. The politicians will come out of hiding for photo ops. What a celebration we can have!
Family Day should be every day. There is no need to designate a special holiday to spend with our families.

Senate reformEditor:
Prime Minister Stephen Harper, with his majority, is well poised to reform the Canadian Senate.
There are two major issues that have come to the forefront. First, grow-ing provinces like B.C. and Alberta are grossly under-represented in the Senate with only six seats each. Second, the appointment of senators elected by the provinces might somehow give the Senate a sense of legiti-macy and subsequently more clout.
Some academics fear that proposed changes by Harper will make the upper chamber more powerful. These are very genuine concerns. It is about time that this chamber of sleepy second thought gets a wake-up call.
In its current form, the senate is not only undemocratic but also useless and a waste of taxpayers’ money. With the exception of a few senators, it has become a repository of old, tired and failed politicians and party loyalists. In order to make the senate equally representative regionally, elected and effective, it will require a constitu-tional amendment, which is almost impossible under the present condi-tions.
Harper’s proposal to have Canadian voters elect the people to fi ll the vacancies is a step in the right direction. Also, limiting the term of sena-tors to nine years makes sense. It will ensure that there is ongoing renewal.
The question of more appropriate representa-tion from the Western provinces is more complex, but it must be addressed before long.
Canadians need an upper house of sober, elected, equitable and effective second thought. In the meantime, Harper’s proposal deserves seri-ous consideration. We need to start somewhere in order to address this issue.

Sun shines on Thanksgiving soccer tournaments

There were a few surprises at the an-nual Richmond boys’ and girls’ Thanks-giving soccer tournaments held at fi elds throughout the city last weekend, but none more than a welcomed appear-ance of the sun.
“We sure lucked out,” said Rich-mond Girls’ Soccer director of opera-
tions Stew MacPherson, who soaked up the rays while accepting countless compliments for what has become a much-anticipated annual event.
“It is one of the great tournaments of the year, and I love that the girls and boys play at the same time,” he said.
“And if you’re lucky enough your kids might even be on side-by-side fi elds.”

Bantam Isles show skillsSeafair rep team wins Icebreaker hockey titleby Don FennellSports Editor
Winning once is diffi cult enough, but repeating as champions at the Seafair Icebreaker is even more of a feat.
It’s why coach Russ We-ber was in such a jubilant mood Monday afternoon at the Richmond Ice Cen-tre, after his Seafair Is-landers Bantam A1 team defeated Vernon Vipers 7-1 in the Tier 1 fi nal of the annual minor hockey tournament.
“The object of the Ice-breaker is, one, to see what you have and, two, to win fi ve games in four days,” said Weber, who is assisted at the bench by his son Ryan and Brad Rihela.
“It also provides us the ability to start to build things brick by brick and (develop repetitive habits) and we saw that. Saturday we were in a situation where we’re basically one period away from possibly be-ing eliminated and the boys turned it around by getting back to basic hockey, which is what we’re known for,” he said.
Weber said the season is all about preparing to play in the regional fi nal four in February. He said if the Islanders are to, as he expects, be among the top eight teams in the Lower Mainland’s top tier, they’ll have to maintain the team-fi rst approach they displayed this weekend and play disciplined.
“This was a good win for us particularly because I think they upped the bar in this division this year,” he said. “I expect Juan de Fuca, Vernon, South Delta and Mission are all going to be Tier 1 teams this year.”
The 2011-12 Island-ers appear to be solid throughout the lineup. They’ve got what Weber believes are two strong goaltenders fronted by a blueline that features seven reliable defence-men. Up front are 10 forwards, led by two scoring lines and two checking lines that ac-cept their role is to keep the puck deep in the op-position’s end and put it on net when possible.
Weber said with the new double minor rule for head shots intro-duced this season, dis-
cipline is even more im-portant than in the past. He predicts “it’s going to change hockey.”
“It can be a double whammy if you score on the fi rst on deuce and get another powerplay goal the game could be done,” he said. “But I like it, and we reinforce when we’re playing that’s there’s no need for the stick to come off the ice.”
Further, Weber said it’s another step forward for not only improving play-ers’ safety, but also ac-centuating the skills.

“It’s not going to happen overnight and already I hear people complaining it’s all special teams now, but I
think it’s going to be good for hockey. We want this to be a better game and safer for the kids. This will not just increase the speed of the game but good coaches will feast on the powerplay. It’s fun to watch and great to coach.”
•Richmond Minor Hockey Midget A1 Blues doubled Seafair Midget A1 Islanders 4-2 in semifi nal play Sun-day, then went on to edge Vernon 3-2 in a shootout Monday to win the Midget Tier 1 tournament title.
While happy with the result, Richmond coach Norm MacAulay cautioned his team still has a lot of growing to do.
“This was a chance to get the boys together and on the same page,” he said. “This is a hard-working group and skilled. I think our powerplay should be ranked one of the best in province. We were prob-ably well over 50 per cent this weekend.”

From Page 12
“We always talk about it being a friendly tour-nament but the (players) want to win regardless of what division they’re in,” he said. “And it’s unique that the teams play in groups based on numbers, which means it might not necessarily be your own age group. So the younger kids are jacked to beat the older
kids, or maybe a Silver Di-vision team is up against a higher level team that they’d normally play.”
Many coaches also view the tournament as an op-portunity for their teams to bond. MacPherson said with each club play-ing three or four games over two days, that’s certainly possible. When he coached he also used tournaments to put play-
ers in positions they might not otherwise play.
This was a unique week-end for Chrissy and Bran-don Kirk as both siblings played in championship finals. Chrissy and her Richmond Revolution teammates edged Rich-mond Strykers 2-1 on penalty kicks for the U16 Bronze girls’ title, while Brandon’s U18 Silver boys’ team lost to Surrey.

It was learned that he did have a home, but because of their new baby allergies, the owners were unable to look after him. He is still very playful and loves attention. He would love to go to a family where he could be included in the family, safely indoors!

“It was one of the best open-ings of a season we have ever had,” said Simon Johnston, artistic and executive director of Gateway Theatre. “It was such a great relief to have a full house and for them to be laughing.”
The play, comedic as it was, also had many serious mo-ments during which “you could hear a pin drop,” Johnston said.
The director, Nicola Cavendish, was equally pleased with opening night. “I thought it was fabulous,” she said.
Everything turned out better than she had envisioned it to, which was a result of hardworking, experienced actresses and a very well written play by Robert Harling.
“It’s really good writing … we’re seeing someone’s heart in words,” Cavendish said.
It is also a play that Richmondites can relate to, accord-ing to Johnston. “Steel Magnolias is about a small town and I think in many ways Richmond is still like that.”
Steel Magnolias is at Gateway until Oct. 21.
