Teacher honoured for ‘bringing science to life’ by Martin van den Hemel Staff Reporter
Anderson science teacher is first in Richmond to win Amgen award
Glyn Davies is the perfect mix of enthusiast, guide, mentor and inspiration whenever he dons his cap as science teacher at Henry Anderson Elementary School. Long after they’ve left, former students still rave about how he opened their eyes to the wonders of the sciences. And his teaching colleagues, at Anderson and other elementary schools, marvel at what he manages to pull off each year. On Monday, Davies became the first Richmond teacher to be honoured with the Amgen Award for science teaching excellence,
which was founded in 1992 by the biotechnology company. Nine teachers in North America were honoured this year, but Davies was the only one from Canada. “He just brings the science to life,” one of his students, dressed in orange astronaut coveralls, said. Davies was presented the award by Amgen senior manager Jim Favaro following a Science World presentation Monday morning inside the school’s gym. “I was totally relaxed watching my students
up, doing their presentation...and I’m a bit of a shy person so I was very happy I wasn’t up there. And I was shocked when they called me up.” The surprise presentation involved secretly ushering local dignitaries including Richmond East MLA Linda Reid and the media into the principal’s office, and then inviting Davies to take part in an explosive Science World experiment, after which he was honoured. Davies won a $5,000 grant, while his school received another $5,000. “The award will reap benefits for many, many
years to come,” Davies said. Asked what his secret to success is, Davies chuckled: “I have a lot of heart and soul, and I get the children involved. I have a certain level of skill but it’s not as high as I would like. So I get the children to get involved, and share the ideas, and we make magic happen.” On behalf of the province, Reid congratulated Davies while encouraging students to explore a career in the sciences. “All of you, sitting on the floor today, think about a career in science because you have some stupendous teachers to guide you through that process,” Reid said.

New Richmond bridge still a Pattullo option But Tree Island link in East Richmond isn’t recommended by TransLink; we’d become ‘city of bridges’ by Jeff Nagel and Matthew Hoekstra Black Press A new Surrey-Coquitlam bridge bypassing New Westminster is one of six recommended options TransLink has unveiled to replace the aging Pattullo Bridge that could profoundly change traffic patterns. They were released Monday as part of a new round of public consultation this month, which also offers the possibility of a new Richmond bridge. An option that isn’t recommended but is nonetheless still a possibility is a four-lane Tree Island crossing in the vicinity of the East Richmond neighbourhood of Hamilton. It would offer a more direct DeltaBurnaby connection that would have taken traffic from the Alex Fraser Bridge in a near straight line over the Fraser’s North Arm, instead of splitting either left to Richmond or right to Queensborough. TransLink’s screening review, however, found it wouldn’t serve the existing Surrey-New Westminster traffic and Burnaby and Richmond fear more agricultural and industrial land would be lost. Coun. Harold Steves said a Tree Island span would be “one more bridge too many” for Richmond. Not only would another bridge gobble up farmland, it would turn Richmond into a transit corridor. “We’d become a city of bridges,” he said. “The vast majority of traffic going through Richmond isn’t
An option for the Pattullo Bridge replacement is a new span linking East Richmond with Burnaby.
generated in Richmond. We’re seen as a means of getting to Vancouver.” A Tree Island crossing would act more as an alternative to the Queensborough Bridge than the Pattullo, the review said, but most motorists won’t pay the tolls to cover the $825-million cost of a bridge there if the Queensborough is free. No matter which option is chosen, TransLink’s review of them suggests the replacement span will be tolled. “Costs of $1 billion would be recoverable through user fees,” the report says, while adding a crossing costing more than that would need senior government contributions as
well. Two options don’t call for a new bridge at all, but rehabilitating the existing Pattullo for safer three- or four-lane use at a cost of $330 to $400 million, still funded by tolls. Both would improve seismic and structural safety but risks of headon crashes would continue as there’d be no median barrier either in the three-lane counterflow or four-lane configuration. An all-new bridge near the existing one – either four, five or six lanes – would better resist a moderate quake, river scour or ship collision, all of which could knock the exist-
ing 75-year-old span out of service. Those three options range from $820 million for four lanes to $1.1 billion for six. An eight-lane option was ruled out as attracting too much traffic and running counter to goals to move more people by cycling, walking and transit. The five- and six-lane options may spur more auto-oriented development than four lanes, it said. A last option recommended for more study offers a new four-lane Surrey-Coquitlam bridge, while also rehabilitating the old Pattullo for two- or three-lane use. That would cost an estimated $1.4
to $1.5 billion, running from King George Boulevard through Surrey’s Bridgeview neighbourhood across to Braid Street and Highway 1’s Brunette interchange. It lets traffic bypass New Westminster, going the farthest to address concern there about worsening congestion. “Travel times and reliability would improve for most users,” the report said. “Goods movement would likely benefit overall, given more direct connections to Highway 1, United Boulevard and the northeast sector.” TransLink’s review recommends against simply dismantling the current bridge or converting it to either a two-lane bridge or one for cyclists and pedestrians only. Doing so would cause much heavier truck congestion at other crossings, it said. Also panned were four-lane tunnel scenarios on the existing route ($2.9 to $4.8 billion) and four or sixlane bridge options at Sapperton Bar ($1.7 billion to $3.1 billion.) Spokesperson Patricia MacNeil said the issue of tolling isn’t yet settled and TransLink wants public feedback on all studied options, not just the recommended ones, to see if “we are on the right track.” Public open houses are set for June 6, 11 and 15 in New Westminster and June 8, 12, and 13 in Surrey, with additional small group meetings also scheduled in both cities.

Liberals pad total with final election results Final count from Elections B.C. shows Richmond Centre still worst for voter turnout by Matthew Hoekstra Staff Reporter A final count of ballots cast in the 40th provincial general election offered little change for Richmond’s three ridings. Elections B.C. unveiled final results May 29 after officials counted 180,000 absentee ballots and recounted all other ballots. The final result padded the vote totals of winning B.C. Liberal Party candidates in Richmond, but their victory margins remained similar to preliminary results on election night May 14. Richmond East MLA-elect Linda Reid finished with 11,592 votes, or 54.66 per cent of total votes cast. She beat NDP candidate Gian Sihota by 26 percentage points. John Yap took Richmond-Steveston with 12,063 votes, or 51.67 per cent of the riding’s votes—24 points up over NDP rival Scott Stewart. Teresa Wat had the fewest votes among local Liberals but the largest margin of victory. She won Richmond Centre with 9,459 votes, or 49.91 per cent of the vote. That’s 27 points greater than the NDP’s Frank Huang. Absentee ballots did, however, reverse one close result in B.C., giving NDP candidate Selina Robinson a 35-vote win over Liberal Steve Kim in Coquitlam-Maillardville. That result will be subject to a judicial recount. If the count is upheld, the Liberals will have 49 seats to the NDP’s 34. Delta South indepen-

Metro water rules turn off tap on sprinkler fun Play a casualty of early morning lawn watering rules by Jeff Nagel Black Press Running back and forth through a water sprinkler on a hot summer afternoon is one of the great delights of childhood. But Delta Mayor Lois Jackson says Metro Vancouver appears to have inadvertently outlawed those merry moments of fun and frolic as part of the regional district’s ongoing drive to conserve water. Metro water sprinkling rules that took effect June 1 say lawns may only be watered between 4 and 9 a.m. on designated days, a measure planners say helps control peak water use and push back costly infrastructure upgrades. “When we were small we always had the sprinkler in the backyard,” Jackson said. “Neighbours would come over and play and shriek and laugh when it’s hot in the sprinkler. My kids did it.” Jackson asked at the May 24 Metro board meeting if the regulations also preclude running a sprinkler so kids can have backyard fun. She was told it does and violators could be fined $100. But Metro board chair Greg Moore noted Metro doesn’t en-

Jackson said she’s not sure it would be right for a municipality to order relaxed enforcement of the rules. And she said she doubts the early morning sprinkling rules are supported by many residents. “I don’t know of anybody who has the ability to get up at four o’clock in the morning to attend to the sprinkler.” Metro officials say morning-only sprinkling helps flatten spikes in water use during summer evenings, so lawn watering doesn’t also compete with uses like dishwashers, bathing and washing. “If businesses and residents continue to conserve water during the summer, Metro Vancouver can push back the date when we have to build higher dams, bigger pumping stations and bigger water mains,” said North Vancouver City Mayor Darrell Mussatto, chair of Metro’s utilities committee. One hour of lawn sprinkling uses as much water as 25 toilet flushes, five loads of laundry and five dishwasher loads, according to Metro. Early morning sprinkling also means less water goes to waste from evaporation, which is faster at later times of the day. “Why waste high-quality drinking water on lawns?” Moore asked.

Real estate market warms as house sales rise 25% by Martin van den Hemel Staff Reporter There’s signs of life in Richmond’s real estate market, judging from the latest numbers from the Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver. House sales were up 25.7 per cent in May compared to a year ago, and up 16.5 per cent compared to April of 2013. The median selling price of a house in May was the same as a year ago, at $985,000, but increased 3.9 per cent compared to April’s $948,000. Meanwhile, the sale of townhouses increased slightly in May compared to a month earlier, with condo sales dropping a small percentage in that same period. Compared to a year ago, townhouse sales jumped 36 per cent, with condo sales rising 53.7 per cent. Sales in the Greater Vancouver region remained below the 10-year average in May. “We’ve seen some steadying trends over the last three months,” said board president Sandra Wyant. “The number of homes listed for sale has been keeping pace with the number of property sales, leading to a balanced sales-to-listing ratio. This is having a stabilizing influence on home price activity.”
The real estate market in Richmond warmed up in May, a month when sales jumped 25.7 per cent.

Post-election cabinet to be unveiled Friday in Victoria by Tom Fletcher
Black Press file photo Premier Christy Clark and her first cabinet are sworn in at Government House, June 2011. A new team will be sworn in Monday, after a public announcement in Vancouver Friday.
Black Press Premier Christy Clark unveils her new cabinet lineup on Friday, preparing for a rare summer session of the B.C. legislature. With the results of the May 14 election becoming official on Wednesday, MLAs and cabinet ministers are expected to be sworn in early next week in Victoria. Clark promised the cabinet will include a new ministry responsible for natural gas development, in addition to the traditional energy and mines ministry. Clark is also expected to announce this week where she will seek her own seat, after being defeated by the NDP in Vancouver-Point Grey. Richmond-Steveston MLA-elect John Yap and Richmond East MLAelect Linda Reid have both previously served in cabinet roles. Yap has served as Minister of Advanced Education, Innovation and Technology, Minister of State for Multiculturalism, Minister of State for Climate Action and Parliamentary Secretary for Clean Technology. In the lead up to the May 14 election, Yap stepped down from cabinet after a memo outlining the use of non-partisan resources for political organizing was leaked to the NDP opposition. Reid’s last role in Victoria was Deputy Speaker. She’s also served as Minister of State for Early Childhood Development and Minister of State for Childcare. Clark has indicated the B.C. legislature will be recalled this summer, so the government can pass its pre-election budget. The opposition will be heavily focused on the government’s promised to balance the budget by keeping the increase in overall spending below one per cent this year. Previous years saw spending increases of three per cent, despite little or no increase in pay for thousands of public employees. The B.C. Liberal campaign placed heavy emphasis on liquefied natural gas exports, which Clark said will be central to paying off the province’s debt in decades to come. There are multiple proposals for LNG development in the north, including two pipelines proposed to bring gas from shale deposits in

the northeast to processing and export facilities at Kitimat and Prince Rupert. None of the projects has secured financing yet, but the Haisla Nation has announced the latest step forward on its venture with Texas-based
investors for LNG exports from the Douglas Channel near Kitimat. Haisla Chief Councillor Ellis Ross announced Friday that Bermudabased Golar LNG and an unnamed Asian Partner have signed on as investors in the project. Golar
operates a fleet of 13 LNG tankers and has another 13 under construction. The BCLNG partnership and others proposed for the region “offer an end to poverty for the Haisla and the opportunity to stand on our own feet,” Ross said.

Editorial: Cities need to show restraint
T
he Canadian Federation of Independent Business has taken aim at municipal spending across Canada, just as municipal leaders have gathered in Vancouver for the annual convention of the Federation of Canadian Municipalities. The scrutiny is long overdue.
The business federation notes that municipal spending has grown by 55 per cent in the last decade, even as the population has grown by 12 per cent. Here’s some direct quotes from a Canadian Federation of Indepen-
dent Business press release: “It is reasonable to assume that municipal spending would keep pace with increases in population and with increases in prices (inflation). Across Canada, population growth between 2000 and 2011 has been 12 per cent. In Vancouver, population growth was 15 per cent. Over that same time period, inflation-adjusted municipal operating spending increased by a jaw-dropping 55 per cent and 50 per cent respectively. “In other words, the pace of municipal spending growth was over three times the growth in population and inflation. “Put another way, municipalities have increased per-person spend-
ing by over 30 per cent. Do you feel like you are getting 30 per cent more services from your municipal government? “Municipalities claim they are falling behind on one of their core responsibilities—infrastructure. At the same time, they say they need more revenue to deal with problems not addressed adequately by other levels of government, like housing and health. “Transfers from senior levels of government to B.C. municipalities increased by 273 per cent between 2001 and 2010. So where is all this new municipal revenue going? “Municipal employment increased by double the rate of population growth over the past
12 years. In addition, municipal employees make 36 per cent more in wages and benefits than equivalent jobs in the private sector. Wages and benefits make up 67 per cent of Vancouver’s budget. To unravel the overspending, this is where we must start.” The Canadian Federation of Independent Business makes some excellent points. Municipal wages are considerably higher than those for similar workers in the private sector. Tough bargaining is needed to help rectify the imbalance. A close look at all benefits that go to municipal employees is also needed. Municipal governments need to start exercising some restraint. —The Langley Times
Northern Gateway pipeline isn’t dead yet
B.C. Views
Tom Fletcher
O
ne of Premier Christy Clark’s first tasks of the new term will be to resume trade talks with Alberta and Saskatchewan.
Several daunting tasks await. Clark must repair relations with Alberta Premier Alison Redford after B.C.’s theatrics over oil pipelines before the election, and prepare for the results of a federal environmental review of the Enbridge Northern Gateway proposal in the fall. Some people were surprised on Friday when the B.C. government released its final written submission to the federal environmental review panel on Northern Gateway. It was widely interpreted as B.C.’s outright rejection of the project, but it’s not as simple as that. Clark and B.C. Environment Minister Terry Lake signalled several times before the election that they were not getting the answers they wanted from Enbridge. But they stuck to the principle that the hear-
The Northern Gateway project involves pipelines that stretch from the Alberta oil sands to a tanker port on the North Coast.
ings must be completed. The NDP repeated for months that the B.C. Liberal government had forfeited its own review and handed jurisdiction over the environmental assessment to Ottawa. In fact, a pipeline that runs across two provinces is by definition a matter of federal jurisdiction. B.C. could have held its own parallel set of hearings, which was the NDP’s stated preference, but in no circumstance does the province have a veto. And both the B.C. Liberal government and Enbridge were careful to leave the door open for further talks. A closer reading of their comments shows that the key difference at this stage is one of timing. “The panel must determine if it is appropriate to grant a certificate for the project as currently
proposed on the basis of a promise to do more study and planning after the certificate is granted,” Lake said. “Our government does not believe that a certificate should be granted before these important questions are answered.” According to Enbridge executive Janet Holder, those important questions can’t all be answered until the hearings are over. The company maintains that every river crossing and spill response plan can’t be done in detail during the two-year hearings. B.C.’s final submission runs to nearly 100 pages. It goes into detail on the inconsistencies and unanswered questions on such vital topics as whether diluted bitumen can sink in water. In short, the province argues that it can sink if the oil is in fresh water, or if it
is exposed to weathering so lighter fractions evaporate, or if it is mixed with sediments that increase its density. These are pertinent conditions if heavy oil were to leak into a river in springtime, when water runs fast and cold and brown with sediment. Then there are the obstacles presented by responding to a spill in remote wilderness and heavy snow. Given both provincial and aboriginal opposition in B.C., the Enbridge pipeline is unlikely to be imposed, and last week Conservative cabinet minister James Moore clearly ruled that out. The B.C. government has consistently maintained that the current project does not meet Clark’s often-repeated five conditions, including the vaguely defined “fair share” of rev-
enues, and Moore said the federal government agrees with those conditions. The B.C. government has to face some other uncomfortable realities as well. If heavy oil pipelines are such a risk, how does B.C. manage the one that has stretched across remote and populated areas for 60 years? Does the government take a stand against new pipelines, and then watch as rail cars full of heavy oil cross those same rivers? No permit is required for that, and in fact there are more hazardous materials than oil moving by rail and road across the province today.

letters Stop appointments to useless Red Chamber
A cyclist crosses the Canada Line bridge.
We must make driving less appealing to boost cycling Editor: Re: “Boosting local bike ridership is ‘possible’ in car-consumed city,” May 22. I was heartened to see some attention paid to the Richmond Official Community Plan’s target of increasing bicycle ridership in Richmond from one per cent to 10 per cent by 2041. I was disheartened to see the negativity communicated by Coun. Evelina Halsey-Brandt. I think it is important to note that cities that have succeeded in increasing bicycle ridership have done so through significant investment in infrastructure. Richmond has made a start in this direction with the Canada Line cycling/pedestrian bridge and cycling lanes, albeit not always completely connected, on some streets such as No. 3 Road. What is truly needed is there to be an entire network for cycling access so that cyclists feel comfortable getting from Point A to Point B. I often feel that I am risking my life to go those few unavoidable blocks on Gilbert or No. 1 Road that don’t have separated cycling lanes. I think we all need to focus on the benefits of cycling, both for individuals and for the city. As individuals, we can save money, get exercise, lose weight, release stress (unless feeling unsafe) and know that we are contributing positively to the environment. If Portland is any example, even the city (and we as taxpayers) can save money by increasing bicycle ridership. According to an article entitled “This Bike Could Save Your Life” (see fastcoexist.com), the City of Portland will save $75M this year and expect to save $400M by 2040. There’s some incentive! In order to get people out of cars and onto bicycles, we must make driving less appealing. At my work place, there is an empty bike rack when I arrive (on my bike) and struggles over finding parking (free). In the parking space for one car, it is possible to fit 20 bicycles. Our city is designed for vehicles but the city leadership can change this so that other alternatives become more possible. As individuals, we could start by increasing our cycling (or alternative transport) trips incrementally. Perhaps one day per week and then two days and so on. It might even become a positive new habit. Lois Armerding Richmond
Colin Dring’s green column always a great read Editor: Thank you for supporting green writer Colin Dring. I love his Green Scene column as it is interesting and fits right in with my values. I eagerly look for each new article and always appreciate its content. I especially loved the way he boldly addressed the shark fin soup issue, a little while back. Given the importance of our society’s need to realign and get back in touch with our origins, it would be nice to see this column featured on the front page every so often. Caroline Moustache Richmond
Editor: The latest developments with respect to the Canadian Senate indicate that this relic of the past should be put to rest. Ridiculous out-of-town housing and travel claims by a number of senators have again cast a shadow on this chamber of sleepy second thought. A number of attempts to reform the senate in the past have failed miserably. Similarly, any more efforts to reform it won’t go anywhere. The Senate, in its current form, has outlived its usefulness. It is a waste of more than $91 million of taxpayers’ hard earned money year after year. Getting rid of the Senate will require a constitutional amendment which may be almost impossible to achieve. Provinces like Ontario and Quebec as well as the Maritimes are unlikely to agree to any measures to get rid of this white elephant. Getting an equal, effective and elected Senate is also likely to go nowhere. Under these circumstances the only viable option seems to be to stop making any new appointments to the Senate. Ultimately, at some point in the future we will have no one sitting in the Red Chamber. That will give Canadians an opportunity to explore suitable options that will make sense. Balwant Sanghera Richmond
Problems with Senate lie with Stephen Harper Editor: Further to your editorial regarding Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s failure to act on the scandal around the expense accounts of some senators, I think the problem goes much deeper than that. The Prime Minister is elected to be the leader of our country. Leadership is about taking responsibility, getting out in front of problems and outlining what the solutions are to move forward. Harper has now been confronted with the dilemma that at least two of the senators he appointed have apparently been padding their travel expenses, their living expenses, and in one case submitting living expenses when they were campaigning for the Conservative party. What is even more troubling is the exposure of the Prime Minister’s former chief of staff paying Senator Duffy $90,000 so he could reimburse the government for over billing on his expense account. It is illegal to give money to our elected representatives (except as a campaign donation) and the PMO staff would have known this. Instead of taking responsibility and saying what he would do about this scandal, Harper simply threw the senators out of his caucus. He throws anyone under the bus in the Conservative party who gets caught screwing up. Bev Oda and Maxime Bernier come to mind. Stephen Harper ran in 2006 against Paul Martin on a platform of reforming Parliament to make it more accountable and transparent after the disgrace of the sponsorship scandal. If anything since 2006 Harper’s Conservative government has become more secretive and controlling of information. He rarely holds press conferences and when he does he only accepts questions from those reporters he has approved. Mike Duffy used to be one of those reporters. Harper’s attack ads on Stephane Dion, Michael Ignatieff and Justin Trudeau have left the Canadian public very distrustful of anything he says or does. Therefore when he denies any knowledge of the goings on by his senators or by his staff, no one is prepared to believe him. The MP for Richmond, Alice Wong, sits right behind Harper in Parliament where we can see her every night that the proceedings are carried on the TV news. Perhaps our representative should let the people of Richmond know where she stands on these issues and what she is doing to make sure such scandalous behaviour does not happen in the senate again. Better still, abolish the senate! Greg Halsey-Brandt Richmond
Major Ron Mathews (left) and Mayor Malcolm Brodie unveil the Richmond cenotaph at a rededication ceremony last fall outside Richmond City Hall.
Richmond’s cenotaph a smoke pit Editor: On May 26 I was invited to participate in the rededication of the cenotaph in North Vancouver. The North Vancouver cenotaph is situated in a park. There are benches nearby, and it is surrounded by trees. It is a very pleasant setting for reflection. North Vancouver was adding the words “Afghanistan” and “Peacekeeping” to the cenotaph to remember the sacrifice of Canadians in the most recent war and in the many peacekeeping operations. Nine soldiers from British Columbia died on operations in Afghanistan. The service was moving and the cenotaph was clean, bright and a fitting memorial. A few days later I drove past the Richmond cenotaph and saw people sitting on it smoking. It appears that the Richmond cenotaph has become overflow seating and a smoking area for a bus stop. It makes one think about city hall’s priorities. Scott Stewart Richmond

Cellphone code caps roaming fees, offers exits Advocates say CRTC changes give users more control by Jeff Nagel Black Press
Couns. Bill McNulty and Linda McPhail pose with Sammy the Salmon Sunday at Gulf of Georgia Cannery.

Sammy looking sharp for Salmon Festival by Don Fennell Staff Reporter Sammy the Salmon has never been more ready for the annual Steveston Salmon Festival. A year ago, organizing committee members noticed he was looking a little tired and sent him off to a mascot spa for a rejuvenating makeover. Thanks to the excellent work of Josh Will-
son of JBW Studios, Sammy is renewed and ready to get back for the annual Canada Day festivities. “He’s still approachable but more durable too,” says Beth Ovenden, president of the Steveston Salmon Festival Society. Coun. Bill McNulty, who was on hand to help a new, sharper-looking Sammy make his grand debut at the Steveston Farmers and Artisans Market at the Gulf of Georgia Cannery Sunday, says Sammy is a fitting re-
flection of the stature the Steveston Salmon Festival parade and the accompanying events of July 1 are afforded. For more than 30 years, Sammy the Salmon has represented Steveston and Richmond at countless events locally and throughout the province and is again looking forward to being out front in the Salmon Festival parade. The Steveston Salmon Festival returns again this Canada Day—Monday, July 1.
Consumer advocates are applauding a new wireless code of conduct that lets Canadians cancel mobile phone contracts without penalty after two years and sets caps on data roaming charges. The new code unveiled Monday by federal regulators applies on new contracts for mobile phones and other devices starting Dec. 2. Besides the ability to escape three-year contracts without fees after two years, the new CRTC rules cap data overage fees at $50 a month and national and international data roaming fees at $100 a month, unless the user explicitly wants to use more. “Canadians may finally now be freed of the worst of cellphone bill shock,” Public Interest Advocacy Centre executive director John Lawford said. “We hope that consumers will now be able to enjoy their wireless service fully and without fear.” He said the code should reduce the mobile device costs of many users. “It also makes it easier to switch companies because those costs are limited and are clear,” Lawford said. Individuals and small business users will also be able to have their phones unlocked after 90 days or immediately if they paid the full price. A 15-day return option is also promised to those who are unhappy with service, along with an easy-to-read contract and an ability to accept or decline key changes to a contract. It’s not yet clear how major phone companies will react to the new rules.

New online tool rates accessibility of public spaces, businesses A new website developed by the Rick Hansen Foundation allows users to rate the level of access to buildings and open spaces. Rick Hansen and Richmond Mayor Malcolm Brodie announced May 29 the city’s participation in the online tool—the first municipality in Canada to do so. Richmond completed “professional ratings” for 29 city-owned venues and public spaces for the
website, planat.com, according to a news release. Brodie encouraged all local businesses and organizations to get rated on the website, a tool for people with disabilities. Users can post reviews and compare to reviews completed by businesses—either by self-assessment or professional review. The site contains ratings for 17,000 venues in 20 countries.

The long route begins at 10 a.m., and consists of 22 kilometres of onstreet biking. This route
will take you along Dyke Road, past Finn Slough, Britannia Heritage Shipyard and the future Railway Avenue greenway and return via Shell Road greenway and a new cycling connection through Riverside Industrial Park. Both routes will start and finish at Woodwards Landing, 11551 Dyke Rd. (just west of No. 5 Road). Cyclists who would like a pre-ride bike and helmet safety check are encouraged to arrive at 9:30 a.m. Following the ride, refreshments will be available, along with a raffle prize draw.

Before (above) and after a major renovation to 4100 Granville Ave., one of 11 professionally renovated homes in Metro Vancouver on display this Sunday.
Workshop series to give local caregivers practical coping strategies A few hours of learning could make a huge difference in the lives of Richmond caregivers. The five-session Family Caregiver Series, starting on Monday, June 17, will explain effective ways to care for a person with Alzheimer’s disease or another dementia. “For family caregivers, the commitment can last many years, and can bring with it high stress levels and illness,” said Krista Frazee, the support and education co-ordinator for Richmond-Delta for the Alzheimer Society of B.C., which is putting on the workshop. Participants will learn about dementia, practical coping strategies, and early planning. “It is through education that caregivers understand the disease and learn effective strategies to deal with changing communication and behaviours,” said Frazee. “With this new understanding caregivers become empowered and they are ultimately more resilient on the dementia journey.” The free series is designed for family members who are caring for a person with dementia and covers
the following topics: •understanding Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias; •effective and creative ways of facilitating communication with a person with dementia; •problem solving for responsive behaviours; •Self-care for the caregiver. Workshops run June 17 and 24, and July 8, 15 and 22 from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. at Richmond Caring Place, Room 340, 7000 Minoru Blvd. Pre-registration is required. For information and to register contact Frazee at 604-238-7390 or kfrazee@ alzheimerbc.org. The series is free, thanks to partial funding by the province of B.C., RBC Foundation, the Phyliss and Irving Snider Foundation, Novartis Pharmaceuticals Canada Inc., Pfizer Canada Inc., Provincial Employees Community Services Fund, Frank and Yvonne McCracken Foundation, Lohn Foundation and Djavad Mowafaghian Foundation. Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias affect approximately one of every 11 people aged 65 or older.

Richmond trio Royal contributors Locals lead Douglas College to softball final by Don Fennell Sports Editor In three seasons, the Douglas College Royals have gone from expansion team to title contenders in the Northwest Athletic Association of Community Colleges women’s fastball league—thanks in large part to the contributions of a trio of Richmond athletes. With Hillary Strelau, Emi Nomura and Sydney Jeffers all hitting over .400, the Royals (31-7) came within two runs of winning their first championship losing out to Wenatchee Valley Knights (44-4) 6-5 in the recent final played in Portland. Selected to the all-star team in the championship round, Streleau’s .489 batting average was the highest in the conference and earned her a spot on the first all-star team. Nomura, who batted .436, was also select-
ed a conference all-star, while Jeffers, remarkably overlooked as an all-star, batted .427. Their contributions weren’t lost on Royals’ head coach Gord Collings. “Hillary was our leadoff batter and along with her tremendous speed showed excellent handeye co-ordination and an ability to drive the ball and also slap it,” he said. “It was a challenge for anyone to get her out and as a result she had a phenomenal record of getting on base and coming up with something when we needed it. Emi batted in the No. 4 spot and always made good contact while only striking out twice in over 100 at-bats. She also played first base and did some pitching for us. And Sydney was like another lead-off batter only further down in the order. And there’s no question Sydney was our most improved player in the two
years she was with us. For her to make the strides she did reflects her commitment and dedication.” Streleau, a freshman in 2013, saw the success of the Royals coming. “During our off-season practices and exhibition games I could already tell we were going to be a strong team. As players we trusted each other on and off the field and going into the championships I felt we couldn’t have done any more to prepare for it,” she said. Streleau said the team had speed and power but most of all heart, at times surprising even themselves. She is already looking forward to returning to the Royals next season. For Nomura, who was completing her final season art the two-year college, playing a big role in the Royals’ success was rewarding. “My performance level was at its highest peak due to helpful coaching.
Richmond’s Hillary Strelau, Emi Nomura and Sydney Jeffers played prominent roles for the Douglas College Royals women’s fastpitch team this season.
I’m very happy I decided to play with Douglas College (again). Once I hear who was on the team I knew we were going to have a strong lineup and succeed with high expectations,” she said.
“Coming in second was so bittersweet,” said Jeffers, also completing her sophomore year at Douglas College. “I am so grateful to think of everything we have accomplished as a team; I couldn’t have
asked for a better group of girls and I am so proud to have called myself a Royal and be a part of the legacy we will leave behind. The amazing experience has made me a much stronger player.”

Kajaks throwers dominant at provincials Asianna Covington breaks 42-year-old high school discus record by Don Fennell Sports Editor Asianna Covington’s final performance in the senior girls’ discus event Saturday at the BC High School Track and Field Championships was—fittingly—recordbreaking. The Richmond Kajaks’ thrower, a Grade 12 student at Vancouver’s Little Flower Academy, won the senior girls’ discus title Saturday at Langley’s MacLeod Parkwith a throw of 48.20 metres, which broke Joan Pavelich’s 42-year-old mark of 47.37 metres set in 1971. Covington also defended her title in the hammer throw with a winning distance of 53.83 metres and placed second in the shot put with a throw of 12.83 metres. But despite her immense success, she remains extraordinarily modest. “It was a nice way to cap my career,” said Covington, who in September will begin a full-ride athletic scholarship to the University of Georgia, where one of the
world’s top young throwers (she was ranked No. 2 in world youth rankings in 2012) will continue to fine-tune her throwing career as a member of the Bulldogs. The presence of the dedicated Covington has clearly inspired her Kajaks’ teammates, who combined for five additional medals at the provincial championships. Maple Ridge Secondary student Mark Kalmykov topped the senior men’s hammer event with a throw of 54.65 metres, while Chanell Botsis—a Grade 9 student at Dr. Charles Best Secondary—moved up to compete in the senior division and placed scond to Covington in the hammer throw (46.99 metres) and was fourth in the javelin throw with a personal-best 39.44 metres. A pair of other up-andcomers shone bright in the grade 8 and 9 throwing events as Grade 8 R.A. McMath Secondary student Camryn Toney won a silver medal in the girls’ discus throw with a distance best of 31.57 metres and added a sec-

ond silver medal with a throw of 9.47 metres in the shot put, and John Oliver Secondary student Gurleen Bhandal won the discus event with a personal-best throw of 32.79 metres. •As the last few events wound down at the recent Richmond Track and Field Championships, there was plenty
of nail-biting as traditional powerhouses H.J. Cambie Crusaders and A.R. MacNeill Ravens went back and forth taking the points lead and the overall crown. In the end, MacNeill came out on top with a slim victory, 1,165 points to 1,147.5. Both schools depended upon their depth,

especially in the senior events, to distance themselves from the rest of the Richmond schools. The R.A. McMath Wildcats were a huge surprise this year, placing a solid third ahead of an improving Richmond Christian Eagles. The Wildcats earned a pair of Bantam (Grade 8) division titles and had great talent at
all the younger ages. In fact, the Wildcats won more events than MacNeill and Cambie combined and their future looks strong. All told, McMath won 48 gold medals, 18 silver and 11 bronze. Cambie won 24 gold, 30 silver and 31 bronze. Athletes from each of the schools used the
momentum from their success to qualify for provincials, where several stood tall led by McMath’s Montana Leonard winning bronze in the Grade 8 and 9 girls’ 400 metres in a time of one minute, 0.08 seconds. Tianna Bobarill, also of McMath, was second in the high jump after clearing the bar at 1.50 metres.

Winning elementary for Dixon Dragons Armed with a philosophy that centers on community, students excel at track and field provincials by Don Fennell Sports Editor
T
he Dragons did their share of winning at the recent BC Elementary Track and Field Championships, hosted by the Richmond Kajaks. But it wasn’t only by capturing the Richmond Cup as the top public school that Dixon students stood out.
The sportsmanship demonstrated by one boy running in a relay race, was particularly impressive in the eyes of principal Bill Juhasz. “When he noticed that the shoe of a competitor flew
off he stopped and picked it up mid-race and handed it to the other boy, then continued on running,” said Juhasz. And in an example of compassion and teamwork, a Grade 3 boy gave up his spot in the 200-metre relay to a fellow student who was in fewer events. “Some kids probably could have done well in up to seven events, but we made a rule that no kid could go into more than four which opened up opportunites for others to participate as well,” Juhasz said. “It’s a further reflection of some of things we’re trying to accomplish in terms of social responsibility—that it’s about we and not me.”
Dixon elementary students united to win the coveted Richmond Cup.
As a school, Dixon strives to be a community. Students are encouraged to

take part in as many of the school activities as possible, with the strong support of
staff and parents reinforcing the concept. “Our school staff, like all
staffs attending the (provincial) meet, volunteer their time to coach and train the athletes. Then it’s through (the students’) commitment, enthusiasm, support for others and sportsmanship that the Dixon team succeeds,” said Juhasz. Teacher Lee Hunter sets the bar. A tireless volunteer, Hunter encourages the students (from grades 3 to 7) to participate in track and field and then ensures their efforts are recognized in a positive way. It’s because of this approach that so many Dixon students—past and present—have developed a love for the sport. For example, a student who won four medals at this year’s provincial meet was still trying to find a sporting activity that interested him just a few years ago. “This is a real success story thanks to his determination and support from his parents,” said Juhasz.

Emma Kimoto stands on the podium as a gold medallist.
Big Ten gold for Emma Richmond’s Emma Kimoto of Indiana University, and a previous member of the Richmond Kajaks, won the high jump in the National Collegiate Athletic Association Big Ten Outdoor Track and Field Championship last week in Columbus, Ohio. This is her second conference title, adding to her indoor title in March.
Three of Richmond’s most talented hockey players will be joining forces later this year for the annual national under-18 women’s championship in Calgary. The players were selected based on season long evaluations and their performance at the provincial camp which was held in Lake Cowichan on May 22 to 26. The next step for the team is a weekend summer training camp where they will begin to work on team concepts, training and other preparations. The camp is designed from the national program and focuses on developing the player’s strength, conditioning, fitness and
nutrition. The BC Hockey under-18 level is the final step in the BC Hockey Female High Performance program, and the athletes in attendance at the camp represent the best BC has to offer in that age group. Many have progressed through the female under-16 program where they were introduced to training techniques and expectations that they have carried forward to the U18 level. BC Hockey’s Female High Performance Program was established to identify and train athletes and team personnel for possible participation at provincial, national and International events.

Gymnast Stuart readies for Summer Universiade by Don Fennell Sports Editor Joshua Stuart has a busy July ahead of him. One of 12 Canadian gymnasts selected to compete at the 2013 Summer Universiade in Kazun, Russia July 6 to 17, the Richmond athlete is hoping to add to the six medals Canadians have won over the years including a pair at the last biennial Games in Shenzhen, China in 2011. Stuart is coming off a 17th-place finish in the senior men’s all-around category at the recent national championships in Ottawa. He placed 11th on pommel horse. Stuart was among a strong continent of Richmond Gymnastics Club members to represent B.C. at the Canadians. Teammates Robert Watson and Devy Dyson also competed in the senior all-around division, with Watson second overall
with 81.45 points—just .15 points behind Hugh Smith of Halifax who placed first. Watson won the floor exercise, was second on the pummel horse and third on the high bar. Devy placed fifth on rings. Nico Bourne won gold on rings and placed fourth on parallel bars in the national youth division and placed 10th JOSHUA STUART overall. Chris Kaji and Brian Lau both participated in the high performance argo division, with Kaji earning fifth on the beam exercise and placing 14th overall.
Hugh Boyd football hopes to raise $40,000 for Texas trip by Don Fennell Sports Editor The Hugh Boyd Trojans need $40,000 for a trip to Houston, Texas in August. The Richmond high school’s senior football team is hoping to meet the challenge through a series of fundraisers over the next several weeks— including this weekend when they’ll host a car wash and swap meet at South Arm United Church and serve up hotdogs, hamburgers, samosas and Vietnamese spring rolls at the Steveston Farmers and Artisans Market. “It’s a huge commitment but these boys are super eager and motivated for this once-ina-lifetime trip,” says Lan Do, a Hugh Boyd parent who is coordinating the fundraising efforts. Do said the team’s first fundraiser, held last weekend at the market, was a success. Future fundraisers include a pub night June 14 at the Buck & Ear Bar and Grill as well as more samosa and spring roll sales. The team will also be selling

football lottery tickets and selling spots on its advertising board. “It’s a great group of parents organizing all the events,” says Hugh Boyd coach Bill Haddow. “Basically, they have created summer jobs for these guys to raise money for their trip which we’re really excited about. It shows that Hugh Boyd football
is still going strong, and kids and parents that there are excellent opportunities for football players at Boyd.” About $3,000 has been raised so far, with the cost for each player around $1,400 to cover flights, accommodations, meals, travel around the state, tickets to the Space Centre in Houston and tickets
to an NCAA game featuring Rice University which Hugh Boyd grad Hosam Shahin (recently selected by the Montreal Alouettes in the Canadian Football League draft) is attending. The highlight of the trip however promises to be the opportunity to play a game against one of the local high school teams in Houston.
Glavina selected to Commissioner’s 16 as Wildcats settle for 13th at high school soccer champs The R.A. McMath Wildcats probably deserved better. But a pair of scoreless draws against the Terry Fox Ravens and Oak Bay Bays in round-robin play, coupled with a 1-0 loss to Clayton
Heights, left the Wildcats fourth after pool play at last weekend’s provincial high school AAA girls’ soccer championships held on the North Shore. To their credit, McMath finished strong with a solid
3-0 victory over Burnaby South Saturday to place 13th. McMath’s Niki Glavina was selected to the Commissioner’s 16 team for her outstanding play at the provincial championship.

Rapid swimmers enjoy breakthroughs Hard work, dedication paying dividends for Magnus Batara, Brandon de Costa and Nicolaas Dekker The journey to being a highly successful athlete is, in no uncertain terms, an arduous one. There are setbacks, positive experiences, technical breakdowns, minor successes, crushing losses, and then progress. This is the path that three Richmond Rapids swimmers find themselves on. Magnus Batara, a 21-year-old paraswimmer, has recently found himself on the successful side. In this spring’s U.S. Paralympic CanAms, Bator set a meet record in the 100-metre breaststroke, and won gold medals in both the 50 and 200-metre disciplines. In the latter two events, he also set world and Pan-Am records for his class. His mother Dayan notes that even though Batara had difficulty in the Paralympic selection events, he has still been recognized as an important fixture in BC paraswimming. Batara will represent the province as a member of the BC Special Olympics team for this summer’s

Canada games. He is currently training regularly at 6 a.m. to prepare for the competition. Meanwhile, Rapids Brandon de Costa and Nicolaas Dekker were both present at this year’s world championship trials, the meet that determines Canada’s national team at Worlds. This was Dekker’s second senior national meet and de Costa’s first. de Costa was previously only qualified in the 50-metre backstroke, and therefore unable to attend summer nationals, since it was not an Olympic event. “For me, I just had to not focus on making the cut, but more on the fact that it was just another race,” says de Costa. He let the previous year’s disappointment of missing the standard fuel his training. “I didn’t want to experience that again,” he says. That moment came at Western Canadian Nationals in February, where de Costa not only made the

won multiple medals at westerns, including a double gold in the 100 and 200-metre butterfly. This year, however, he was recovering from illness and had to miss westerns entirely. World trials was about experience. “Going to trials after my appendectomy and other sicknesses was important for me because I needed that gentle reminder of what I was really up against,” says Dekker. Seeing where he wanted to be, compared to where he was, lit a fire. “I saw people my age competing in finals. Seeing their performances has really motivated me to train even harder than I was before.” The end results were promising, with club records for Dekker in the 100 fly, and personal bests in multiple events for both Dekker and de Costa. Dekker’s performance placed him on the quadrennial B.C. Canada Games team, the top provincial-level team for a junior swimmer. Dekker sees this as an important chance.

“IVY & CUDDLES” NEEDS A GOOD HOME WITH YOU!
Ivy and Cuddles are bonded guinea pigs who came to the Richmond SPCA through our Drive for Lives Program. They were found as strays in Burnaby. They are both very shy and would do best with an experienced guinea pig owner who can continue to do gradual introduction exercises with them. They enjoy their daily parsley and exercise out of of their cage. Guinea pigs eat hay as a main staple in their diet and prospective owners should make sure there are no allergies in the family. Additionally, they require regular grooming such as nail trims, baths, ear cleaning and the occasional teeth trim as well. If you think they’re the guinea pigs for you, come meet them at the centre!

A
s the school year comes close to an end, the Art’s Connection wraps up its first Reach to Teach, Immersed in the Arts program.
Oscar Sy cooked lunch for everyone at the event.
The end of the program, which saw students from Westwind Elementary come together with Admiral Seymour Elementary students to learn about and make art, was celebrated last Friday with a meet and greet and lunch for everyone involved. It went “150 per cent better than I could have ever expected,” said Linda Shirley, the owner of the Arts Connection.
“Seeing [the kids] bonding was really heart warming,” she said. Friday’s event celebrated the success of the program and raised some money for next year through a raffle draw for one of the pieces of art the kids made and a silent auction for other pieces. “I wanted to see if it could work,” Shirley said of the program’s first year. She now sees the program has longterm potential. “We want to expand next year,” she said. The goal is to add two more schools. Students involved in the program get to meet new friends while getting in touch with their artistic sides through activities including dance, painting, drama and singing. Amanda Oye covers the social scene for The Review. She may be reached at amanda. oye@telus.net.
