The RCMP offi cer who was lambasted by a Richmond provincial court judge over a botched ecstasy lab investi-gation, is one of the Mounties now facing criminal charges in connection with a high-profi le murder case in Surrey.

Matthew Hoekstra photoRealtor Fredrica Willing is selling this fl oat home for $145,000, making it the most affordable single-family home on the market.

by Matthew HoekstraStaff Reporter

It’s the colour of salmon, fi ttingly situated on the Fraser River, and the most affordable single-family home in Richmond.

For $145,000, a buyer will get an 850-square-foot fl oating home with one bedroom and two bath-rooms. Moored in the Middle Arm, the 37-year-old home is a short walk to Aberdeen Station and a short drive to the airport.

In Richmond, where the benchmark price of a single family home is $1.07 million—16 per cent higher than the region’s benchmark price—buyers on a budget must make compromises. In the case of this house, it doesn’t come with land, only a $700-per-month moorage fee.

“It’s really about a lifestyle. It’s for people who are willing to do something a little different from the norm,” said realtor Fredrica Willing.

Willing said a fl oating home is an alternative to purchasing a condominium and still gives some-one a chance to own their own home.

“It’s a gated community. They can lock the door, go away, go on holidays and not be too concerned about it,” she said.

Prices of detached homes in Richmond have been rising rapidly in recent years due to a sharp spike in land values.

Prices of houses with property in Richmond start at $479,000, and only six single-family homes listed on the Canadian Real Estate As-sociation’s Multiple Listing Service are priced under $500,000.

Buyers looking for some of Richmond’s lowest priced real estate are either making compromises or choosing strata living.

At the low-end of the single-family housing mar-ket are zero-lot line houses—a house with its own walls, yet appears attached to another house.

Some houses, like a 400-square-foot moss-covered house in North Richmond, have little bones left to renovate. Others are located on busy roads or are old structures hemmed in by development or industry.

Some of the most affordable houses can be found in Burkeville. Wedged between the path of two airport runways, the Sea Island community of 770 people who live in mostly older homes, some of which are now being redeveloped.

Richmond’s seventh most affordable house is in Burkeville, at 7240 Miller Rd. The blue-and-white 68-year-old home has been on the market for seven weeks. Realtor Martin Dash said it could at-tract fi rst-time buyers, investors or developers.

“Burkeville is going through quite a renaissance. It’s a funky area, and it’s a bit of a sleeper a lot of people are not aware of,” he said.

The house is a nine-minute walk to the Templeton Canada Line station, close to No. 3 Road north and

an easy commute into Vancouver, said Dash.“It’s got a lot in terms of location going for it.”For buyers, the tradeoff is the house is located

on a busy arterial road, and is located in a com-munity that faces some aircraft noise. But the price, said Dash, is a draw for buyers looking to crack a market where the benchmark price of a home rose 22 per cent in the last year.

“It does get them into the market,” he said. “From a return-on-investment standpoint, cer-tainly in the last year, it’s pretty darn good.”

According to the Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver, the benchmark price of a detached home in Richmond in July was $1,064,446—a 20 per cent increase from last year, and a 44 per cent increase from 2009, when the price was $737,060. July’s benchmark price for town-houses was $558,175, a 24 per cent gain in two years. For apartments, the price was $362,281, a two-year increase of 17 per cent.

Compromises for buyers on a budget include location, deteriorating structures and no land

Game based on series of animated shorts

by Matthew HoekstraStaff Reporter

It’s just another day on the ranch, until Little Jake fi nds it’s been invaded by Many Skies—the new girl in town.

The two competitive kids are featured in the TV animated series of shorts The Adventures of Little Jake and Many Skies, which airs on Aboriginal Peoples Television Net-work. Co-produced by Richmond’s Tracey Mack, the characters are now going high-tech in the form of an iPad game.

Mack, a Richmond High grad, said developing an Apple App Store game al-lows her to reach out to audiences in a new way.

“What appeals to me now as a content creator, it’s really an opportunity for me to go directly to an audience,” she said. “Ev-erybody is so mobile—ac-

cessing things on mobile devices, computers and televisions. It’s really mak-ing your content available anywhere anybody might want it.”

Mack’s company Urban Safari Entertainment part-nered with a pair of other Vancouver-based fi rms for her fi rst foray into Apple’s application platform.

The game, The Ad-ventures of Little Jake and Many Skies: All In A Hay’s Work, is aimed at young children, chal-lenging players to stack bales of hay as high as they can without them tipping over.

News that fi ve men have been cleared of all crimi-nal charges despite their link to a massive ecstasy lab found inside an older West Richmond split-level house in 2007 has shocked neighbours.

“It just disturbs me, now that they’re getting away with it,” one long-time Ray-mond Avenue resident told The Review. “It’s not going to ward off anybody else from doing this.”

In his June 21 decision that wasn’t posted until Friday, Richmond provincial court Judge Paul R. Mey-ers tossed out all evidence gathered by police from the homes at 3671 Raymond Ave. and 107-7480 Gilbert

Rd., both in Richmond, and 5608 Melbourne Ave. in Vancouver.

Myers said police consis-tently “ignored and fl aunt-ed the accuseds’ Chart of Rights, and did so con-sistently over a 14-month period.”

In his strongly-worded rebuke of the police’s handling of this case, Judge Myers wrote in his ruling: “Society has a very strong and vested inter-est in the adjudication of a criminal case on its fac-tual merits. When there is hard evidence found, as in this case, proving the production and distribu-tion of dangerous drugs like ecstasy and that hard evidence in uncovered by search warrants issued by a justice, the public expects that the guilty people will be apprehended and after a trial, will be found guilty by the courts.

“However, society also has a very strong and vested interest in making sure that the police do not run roughshod over the cherished rights that we have proudly enshrined in

our Charter of Rights and Freedoms Act.”

Among the breaches Judge Myers found were:

• Failing to fi le a written report with the court reg-istry within the required seven days of the execu-tion of a search warrant. In the case of one warrant, the report has still not been fi led, while in that of an-other, it wasn’t fi led until long after the seven-day requirement.

• Failing to get an inter-preter for at least one of the accused—who couldn’t speak English—when their rights were read to them

“The police basically just closed their eyes to this real, potential problem, by doing nothing in advance to plan for it,” Judge Myers wrote.

• Failing to show search warrant to arrested indi-viduals.

• Unreasonable execu-tion of search warrant.

“It is not an insignifi cant thing to force someone to stand or sit, half naked while being hosed down in front of their neighbours, in the middle of the day and in

the middle of winter. This humiliation so easily could have been avoided, had the smallest of forethought been used by the police offi cers, the members of the fi re department or the members of the (Clandes-tine Lab Department),” Judge Myers wrote.

In deciding to throw out all evidence, Judge Myers ruled: “...I have conclud-ed that, in the long term, the repute of the admin-istration of justice would be adversely affected by admitting into evidence, against any of the Accused, anything that was seized by the police at Gilbert Rd., Raymond Ave. (residence and garage), Melbourne Ave., and from Huang’s white Chevrolet van.”

Accused in this case were Tin Lik Ho, Qing Hou, Shao Wei Huang, Yi Feng Kevin Li and Kai Lai Kyle Zhou.

RCMP would not com-ment on the judge’s ruling, other than to say: “We are reviewing the decision of the court to identify any areas of concern and deter-mine how best to address those concerns.”

Navy tall ship visits Maritime Festivalby Matthew HoekstraStaff Reporter

The Richmond Maritime Festival returns Friday to Bri-tannia Heritage Shipyard with interactive exhibits that showcase Steveston’s history.

The eighth annual event begins Friday is free for all ages and runs Friday to Sunday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Pulling up to Britannia’s dock for the event will be the 90-year-old HMCS Oriole tall ship, the oldest sailing ship in the Canadian Navy. The vessel is 102 feet long (31 metres) and was fi rst commissioned by the Canadian Navy in 1952.

Festival activities include origami, model boat making, knot-tying, treasure hunts, face-painting and live music. Throughout the weekend, Mortal Coil Performance Society will offer sneak previews of Salmon Row, a new theatrical show happening nightly at Britannia Aug. 18 to 28.

Visitors are also welcome to explore Britannia’s fi ve restored buildings that depict early-20th-century life at the shipyard.

Other exhibits honour the people behind the city’s boatbuilding history, including Jack and Joseph Lubzinski (who founded the Marine Products Company in 1951), and the Murakami family (who lived at Britannia from 1929 to 1942).

A full schedule of events can be found at www.richmondmaritimefestival.ca.

Published every Wednesday and Friday by Black Press Ltd.

The election of Elizabeth May as Canada’s first-

ever Green Party MP was supposed to be a breakthrough for environmental issues.

Finally embraced by vot-ers in the organic farming region of Saanich-Gulf Islands, May was given a mandate to change the po-litical conversation about sustainable development, climate change and pol-lution. The breakthrough might even translate to the provincial level, where Jane Sterk is the latest of a line of B.C. Green leaders to toil in obscurity.

It’s too bad they both threw away their scientifi c credibility last week, by chiming in with the tiny tinfoil-hat movement and its trumped-up opposition to BC Hydro’s transition to wireless meters.

May got the tinfoil ball rolling by decrying the use of wireless internet. It might be contributing to bee colony collapse, she mused on Twitter, to much ridicule. Apparently she believes that using a com-puter connected by a wire keeps her free from the radio waves that surround us all. They are generated not only by computers, cell phones and smart meters but all sources of light, including the infrared light that accompanies body

heat.May then cited the much-

hyped revelation that the World Health Organization has listed radio-frequency waves as a possible car-cinogen. Radio waves such as those generated by cell phones and wireless rout-ers were moved to a clas-sifi cation called 2B, which also includes such volatile substances as pickled vegetables.

What this actually means is that health effects can’t be ruled out. It’s impos-sible to prove that some-thing’s impossible. But after many years of study, the evidence that cell phones and such devices cause illness remains at precisely zero.

With May alongside, Sterk called a news confer-ence last week to demand a halt to BC Hydro’s smart

meter program. The fi rst question from a reporter was, why are you reversing the BC Greens’ 2009 elec-tion platform, which called for installation of smart meters by 2012, followed by imposition of time-of-use electricity pricing to reduce consumption?

Sterk expressed surprise, apparently having forgot-ten her own position from only two years ago. Politi-cal credibility takes years to build but only seconds to destroy.

I attended the B.C. Green Party’s 2007 leadership convention at which Sterk was elected. It came after a long and divisive debate over whether cell phones could be used at the meeting. They were fi nally allowed, but this “issue” apparently took up more time than any policy

discussion.Why is BC Hydro putting

in smart meters? First, mechanical meters

are obsolete and soon won’t be available.

Second, B.C. is about twice as big as Germany. Finding, let alone fi xing damaged power lines is a monumental task. A smart grid (much more than just digital meters) is not only self-assessing, it can be made self-healing, rerout-ing power to blacked-out areas when weather, trans-former failure or vehicle accidents cut power.

Do smart meters contin-uously communicate with a “mother ship,” as some claim? Do they record when you get up at night to pee? No and no. These are the kinds of nonsense claims that surround the smart meter issue.

BC Hydro says four to six transmissions from a smart meter to a local hub each day amount to about a minute in total.

Radio wave exposure is equivalent to a half-hour cell phone call every 20 years.

The British National Cancer Institute just published an extensive study of children with brain tumours and exposure to cell phones. Like previous studies, it found no cor-relation.

Somebody should send a postcard to the Green Party and tell them about it.

B.C. ViewsTom Fletcher

Richmond RCMP have received a second black eye, this one

from a provincial court judge who tossed out drug charges from a 2007 ec-stasy bust and rebuked police on their handling of the case.

(The other black eye was the tasering death of Polish immigrant Robert Dziekanski by four Richmond RCMP officers in 2007.)

In throwing out charges to Tin Lik Ho, Qing Hou, Shao Wei Huang, Yi Feng Kevin Li and Kai Lai Kyle Zhou, Judge Paul R. Meyers said police consistently “ignored and flaunted

the accuseds’ Charter of Rights, and did so consistently over a 14-month period.”

In 2007, police busted an ecstasy lab at 3671 Raymond Ave. But what seemed like a slam-dunk case quickly eroded from there.

According to the judgment, police had a search warrant, but didn’t show or read it to two of the accused.

Police did not bring along an inter-preter when one of the accused—who did not speak English—had his rights read to him. “The police basi-cally just closed their eyes to this real, potential problem, by doing nothing in advance to plan for it,” Judge Myers wrote.

And two of the accused were

forced to sit outside, half-naked in midwinter in front of their neigh-bours, where they were “decontami-nated” by fire hoses.

They then failed to file a written report with the court registry within the required seven days of the execution of a search warrant.

“It is fundamental to the courts’ ability to supervise the proper execution of warrants and it is fun-damental to the rights of people who are about to have their homes searched by the police, to know that the courthouse in their area, will have all of the legal documents per-taining to the intrusion of their pri-vacy, available for them to inspect,” Judge Myers wrote.

This judgment won’t help the

RCMP’s cause in B.C. The RCMP’s contract is up next year and this latest bungling will only lead to fur-ther demands to switch a provincial police force, as in Ontario.

While RCMP has been reeling fol-lowing in-custody deaths, lack of co-operation with other police forces, a beating caught on tape in Kelowna and more. This only undermines all the great work the RCMP does in B.C. the majority of the time.

What most critics object to is the lack of accountability from RCMP brass in Ottawa, with its top-down approach. Unless that attitude quickly changes, provincial politicians will have great difficulty defending the renewal of the RCMP contract next year.

EDITORIAL: Police bungling further hurts RCMP’s cause

The Greens threw away their scientifi c credibility last week, by chiming in with the tiny tinfoil-hat movement and its trumped-up opposition to BC Hydro’s transition to wireless meters.

Leave Terra Nova Park as it is

Post box left openEditor:

Last week this Canada post box was left opened, a couple of us from the complex stayed by it and phoned the police, and fi nally managed to get some-one from Canada Post on the phone.

A third person from the complex also phoned in. It took a couple of hours before the regular post lady of our complex came, and instead of saying thank you she asked us why we were waiting there.

All the complex mail was in the contain-er—8870, 8900 and others of Citation Drive, etc.

Apparently Canada Post is looking into it.

Editor:Terra Nova Park is

only a tiny sliver of Richmond’s total area.

It can only be described as a semi-wilderness area and it is very unlikely that it will ever reach full wilderness status, but it is slowly developing into a unique eco-system and as such should be cherished and maintained.

It is, therefore, unbe-lievable to read Coun. Linda Barnes’ Council Update and learn that city hall could have future plans to build restaurants, bed and breakfasts, live-work spaces “or other such uses.” She also men-tions a major water-front and play area. I shudder to think what that means knowing city hall’s past record.

Councillor Barnes, leave Terra Nova as it is. Over and above the 142 species of birds that you mention there is a family of coyotes,

several families of rac-coons and other spe-cies of wildlife living in that park.

All cities should have an area set aside so that present and future generations can visual-ize what the natural habitat looked like before human beings started in to develop the area.

Sadly, very few have.Is it asking too much

of city hall to leave this small area in its pres-ent day state so that our future generations can visit it and see what Richmond’s origi-nal terrain looked like?

Abbotsford Angels won the coin toss to earn home fi eld advantage, but it was the Chilliwack Cougars that collected gold at the 2011 B.C. Mosquito AAA Tier 1 Baseball Championship Sunday in Richmond.

The Cougars broke a 1-1 tie with three

runs in the third inning and never looked back en route to a 14-5 victory at Ste-veston Athletic Park. Both teams earned their way to the fi nal game by topping their respective pools (Abbotsford was 4-0 and Chilliwack 3-1) and then adding wins in the cross-over semfi nals—Ab-botsford doubling Cloverdale Spurs 8-4 and Chilliwack outscoring Victoria 14-4.

District AdvisorsportsRichmond City stands tall at provincial baseball championshipsFrom Page 11

Host Richmond City Chuckers hoped for bet-ter than a 1-3 record, but a heartbreaking 2-1 loss in their opening game to Rutland seemed to defi ne their weekend.

“I think we had a very good season but unfortu-nately we couldn’t pull it all together in the provincial tournament,” said coach Scott Lunny. “But that’s baseball.”

The Chuckers, the major-ity reaching the semifi nals of the single-A provincial championship in 2010, are known for their strong

fi elding.“We certainly don’t have

the size or power at the plate like some of the other teams, but I think we get a lot of respect for being a competitive and feisty,” said Lunny.

“And I think if you ask people they’d say our games are fun to watch. I’m very proud of the boys. We were in all our games most of the way, and a bet-

ter bounce here or there and (we might have fared better).”

Lunny is equally proud

of the host Richmond City Baseball Association and the volunteers—mostly parents of the AAA Chuck-

ers. Their talents and dedication made the 2011 tournament stand out, he said.

•Richmond City Chuckers came within an eyelash of winning the single-A tour-nament in North Delta, but ran out of energy in the fi nal losing 16-1 to Ab-botsford. The underdog Chuckers earlier defeated the Angels 11-7 and upset another regular-season power Vancouver 6-0.

•Richmond reached the semifi nals at the provincial Midget AAA championship in Kamloops before bowing to Vancouver 10-0.

Don Fennell photoRichmond City Chuckers celebrated their success at the Mosquito AAA Tier 1 championship.

> Cessna’s birthday party at the Delta Vancouver Airport Hotel

Cake for a canine

When Cessna, the Canine Ambassador for Delta Vancouver Airport Hotel,

turned two on July 26 the staff threw her a party to celebrate.

The hotel lobby was decorated with bal-loons and there were doggie treats galore to celebrate the well-loved dog’s special day.

“Cessna loves going to work,” said Wendy Hargreaves, the director of sales and marketing at the hotel.

Her birthday was no excep-tion.

As a treat for her guests, Cessna gave everyone who came out to her party a piece of cake and a coupon for a free appetizer or dessert at Pier 73.

“She’s been great as the voice of the hotel,” said Hargreaves.

“The team members love having a dog…she’s just like one of us,” she said.

Cessna has been “the voice” of the hotel for over a year.

She is there Monday to Thursday and spends a lot of her time with the bellmen, greeting guests and playing in the lobby.

When another dog comes to stay Cessna makes sure they feel welcome by sending them a basket of some of her special dog treats.

She posts about the hotel on Facebook and Twitter where she is known as Cessna The Hotel Dog.

Surf rockers hit the cannery Friday

Page 18: August 03, 2011 Richmond Review

The Richmond Food Security Society is relaunching it’s weekly Canning Drop-in where residents bring in their supplies, use the equip-ment and facilities on-site, and then head home with their sealed jars and bags of goodies.

The drop-in runs Tuesdays, from 5 to 8 p.m. For the month of August, the venue will be Garratt Wellness Centre (7504 Chelsea Pl.) In September, canning will take place at Minoru Place Activity Centre

(7660 Minoru Gate). Hot water canners, jars

and equipment will be provided by the society.

“With local produce in abundance, this is the best time of the year to put food aside,” says Arzeena Hamir, co-ordinator for the Society. “We’re very grateful

to Vancouver Coastal Health and Minoru Seniors Center for pro-viding the venue. We’ve been collecting jars and equipment all year so we can’t wait to put them to good use.”

Participants who don’t have their own ingredi-ents can also volunteer

to help process produce from Terra Nova Sharing Farm. Basil will be turned into pesto for the first couple of weeks.

Once tomatoes ripen, they will be canned. All of the preserved produce is donated to community meal programs run by

Gilmore Park United Church, Richmond Family Place, St. Alban’s Anglican Church, and Bethel Church.

For info about the drop-in, contact Hamir at 604-727-9728 or at [email protected].

BC Hydro and its contractors will be making improvements to BC Hydro equipment that will require manhole work, and the installation of duct banks (trenches for electrical works) along No. 6 Road in Richmond from Bridgeport Road, south to Westminster Highway.

The work is scheduled to begin in at the end of July and continue until at least the end of September. The hours of work on most days will be from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m., with occasional evening work. Please watch for the electronic signs that will show any change in hours of construction work.

All businesses and residences along this section will continue to have access.

There will be traffic delays as single lane, alternating traffic will be required. Drivers are encouraged to use other transportation routes. Flaggers will be on the road so please drive with extra caution.

Any questions about this project may be emailed to [email protected] or call the Lower Mainland Community Relations Project Line at 1 800 663 1377.

For 50 years, BC Hydro has been providing clean, reliable electricity to our customers. Today we are planning for the next 50 years by investing in new projects, upgrading existing facilities and working with our customers to conserve energy through Power Smart.
