Illegal Removal of Trees in Surrey BC on Rise
View Larger Map
See the lot in the centre of the larger map view from Google? Notice that there are no trees left on that property.
In 2008, a developer in Surrey, BC removed all the trees on that empty lot next to St Mary's Coptic Orthodox Church near the Southern BC Rail tracks on 104 Avenue.
What's the problem with that? The city of Surrey has a tree-protection bylaw that states all property being developed must protect trees from harm during development. Under this bylaw, developers also have to pay for a tree permit before cutting down trees.
Instead of complying by the bylaw, the developer went ahead and cut down the trees. After seeing this infraction, neighbours in surrounding properties complained to city council,
Once the city assessed the damage, it contacted the developer to issue a fine.
Rather than pay the fine for the downed trees, he tried to bribe a city clerk.
Since then, illegal removal of trees has gone up this year, with 58 removed by August 2012 compared
to 38 removed in 2010, and 31 in 2011.

Today's Corporate Bailouts are a form of welfare fraud!
With the recent announcement that eBay will close its Vancouver office at the end of September 2009, what this actually means is the owner of the company realizes a lot of his investments went tits up during the mortgage fallout back in October 2008.
So he can't afford his lifestyle now, so he assumed western Canada does not need a call centre & that Salt Lake City is a better place for one.
Even so, that CEO didn't lower his income to a sane level... Noooo! Instead, he assumed employee wages are an expense he's better off without, just so he can afford his luxuries!!!
People think Amway is an MLM scam, but global corporate monoliths are the most humoungus of scams, mainly cos if the economy flounders, they can beg for welfare from the State.
Truth is, compared to people living on welfare, corporations get the biggest share of welfare in the form of bailouts from the State using our tax dollars.
Even the biggest welfare fraud artists gets chicken feed compared to the automakers and those banks!!!
SO THE BIGGEST WELFARE FRAUD IS DONE BY CORPORATIONS, AND THE ONGOING CORPORATE BAILOUTS MAKE THOSE CORPORATE ELITES HYPOCRITES WHEN THEY COMPLAIN ABOUT LITTLE FISH DEFRAUDING THE WELFARE OFFICE AGAIN!
BOTH THE BANKS AND THE AUTOMAKERS ARE DEFRAUDING THE TAXPAYERS, BECAUSE THIS RECESSION WAS MANUFACTURER BY BAD DECISIONS THEY MADE, AND WE HAVE TO FOOT THEIR BILL IN EXCHANGE FOR BANK FEES AND CARS WHICH ONLY PROMOTE GLOBAL WARMING.
Therefore, the rich should STFU about the handful of the poor and the homeless supposedly defrauding the government when white collar crime and corporate bailouts are an even bigger form of welfare fraud!
AND CORPORATE ELITES ELECTING TO DO SO - THIS INCLUDES CLOSING EBAY VANCOUVER - ARE THE BIGGEST WELFARE BUMS OF ALL!
FRAK THE RICH!
