Richmond voters to decides new local government on Saturday Polls are open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Nov. 15 in a race with a record number of candidates by Matthew Hoekstra Staff Reporter Richmond residents will head to the polls Saturday to elect a new municipal government and school board—and they’ll have a record number of candidates to choose from. Polls will be open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., where voters will ultimately choose one mayor, eight councillors and seven school trustees—and the choice won’t be easy. Ballots will be packed with the names of 52 candidates. Six political parties are in this race, along with a host of independents. Successful candidates will serve four years, up from the previous three-year term. Unofficial results are expected to be released by 9 p.m. Saturday. All Richmond residents who are Canadian citizens, at least 18 years old and have lived in B.C. for six months—and at least 30 days in Richmond—are eligible to vote.
Voters need to bring a voter card to their designated voting place, or two pieces of identification if they are unregistered or need to change their information. “Voting is a fundamental Canadian right,” said David Weber, the city’s chief election officer, in a Wednesday news release. “The City of Richmond wants to make sure that voting is readily available to qualified voters and that it is one of the easiest things people can do when they go to vote.” For the office of mayor Malcolm Brodie, an independent, is attempting to win a seventh consecutive term. Running against him are Richard Lee of the Richmond Reform party and independent Cliff Wei. For the office of councillor, six incumbents are among the 31 candidates voters will choose from. For school board, 18 candidates are running, including five incumbents. On election night, Richmond City Hall will open council chambers to the public for those looking for a place to watch live results come in. Profiles of candidates, along with results on election night, are available at richmondreview.com / municipalelection/. •See page 3 for a full list of candidates
Alien invasion Hamilton’s Gilley Road and Bridgeview Centre mall have been turned into scenes of destruction by crews filming the Falling Skies TV series. Smashed and overturned cars and abandoned transit buses littered a parking lot covered in artificial haze Thursday morning, as actors filmed scenes inside the old Lois Lanes bowling alley. Season 5 of the TNT series, which is set five years after an alien invasion, will continue filming early next week. Matthew Hoekstra photos

Air Cadet Landon Chorney from the 609 Steveston squadron places his poppy on the Field of Remembrance.
Contributor On a chilly, sunny Remembrance Day, crowds gathered around the Richmond Cenotaph to pay tribute to the memory of the men and women who gave their lives in hopes of peace. The annual ceremony began with the military parade, which comprised members and cadets from all branches of the Canadian Armed Forces. Coun. Bill McNulty marched in with the veterans, and has been doing so since he moved to Richmond, in honour of his father, who served in World War II. “My father went overseas, and fought for freedom,” he said. “It’s something that we talk about, we will remember them, but we must remember them every day, not just on Remembrance Day, and that’s something sometimes people are remiss in.

“I remember them every day of the week, that they gave us freedom and Canada is free, and that’s something that’s very important.” At 11:11 a.m., there were two minutes of silence, followed by the playing of Reveille and the laying of wreaths all around the Cenotaph by representatives of
the Armed Forces, cadet squadrons, and public safety agencies. The ceremony was followed by a reception inside city hall, where veterans, citizens, and cadets alike could gather to get warm, talk about what Remembrance Day meant to them, and read displays set up by the Richmond Archives.

Richmond man arrested in Vancouver death A 65-year-old Richmond man was arrested by Coquitlam RCMP Thursday morning in connection with a fatal stabbing in Vancouver. Vancouver Police responded to the lobby of an apartment building on Balsam Street near West 41st Avenue around 6:30 a.m. Thursday where they found a man in the lobby, appearing to suffer from stab wounds. The 59-year-old Vancouver man was rushed to hospital with serious injuries but died a short time later. His name has also not been released. Vancouver Police Sgt. Randy Fincham said the suspect and victim are known to each other, but investigators are still trying to determine a motive. —Martin van den Hemel

Locals in hot water with Law Society of BC The Law Society of B.C. has taken action against a number of local residents for offering legal services or misrepresenting themselves as lawyers. On Nov. 11, Richmond’s Christophere Nat Kit Ho, Thelma Wai Yee Leung and Ho & Associates Consulting Group Inc. consented to an injunction barring them from engaging in the practice of law in the expectation of a fee, gain or reward. They were also ordered to pay costs. Earlier this year, Richmond’s Lisa Lihua Wu was also prohibited from engaging in the practice of law. On Jan. 16, a judge made the order against Wu, who had offered to draft legal documents, refer a matter to a lawyer and give legal advice in expectation of a fee. The Law Society of B.C. regulates more than 11,000 practising lawyers in B.C., and enforces standards of professional conduct that ensure the public is well-served by a competent, honourable legal profession. —Martin van den Hemel

Gallery explores the tradition of First Nations art by Matthew Hoekstra Staff Reporter First Nations culture will be front and centre at the city’s only public art gallery beginning this weekend. Interweavings, at Richmond Art Gallery, features photography, weavings, paintings, jewelry and carvings created by seven emerging First Nations. It also includes works by the artists’ mentors, highlighting the significance of mentoring relationships in First Nations culture. Curators Nan Capogna and Connie Watts are exploring how tradition informs artists’ works—both contemporary and traditional. Younger artists are learning from their elders, but they’re also challenging traditions. Viewers will find a range of works, including a painting from Lawrence Paul Yuxweluptun titled Fish Farmers. Yuxweluptun started painting at a young age. He graduated from Emily Carr School of Art and Design in 1983 with an honours degree in painting. He found art as an effective tool to raise concerns about a lack of aboriginal rights and threats facing the environment. In a half-hour interview with the Cable Public Affairs Channel last year, the outspoken artist said his

paintings inform viewers of the First Nations experience under oppressive systems. “You can live under the Indian Act, and be one of those Indian Act Indians, but I’m not. I’m a First Nations person on my traditional territory. This is my land, and nobody is going to stop me from saying anything. I will exercise my human right as a
person. I don’t need Greenpeace. I don’t need David Suzuki. I can speak for myself.” The exhibition also includes carved masks of Latham Mack—a Bella Coola-born artist who designs, paints and carves, working mostly in alder and yellow cedar—along with the creative work of Emily Carr grad Tamara Skubovius.

akata Corporation is a Japanese based automotive parts company with production facilities on four continents. Founded in 1933 in Shiga Japan, in the early 1950s it began developing car seat belts then child restraint systems and, by 1988, airbags. As of 2014, Takata airbags are in 20 percent of the vehicles manufactured worldwide by many of the major automotive manufacturers. Recently, the history of Takata airbags has been expanded by The New York Times newspaper (http://www. nytimes.com/2014/09/12/business/air-bag-flawlong-known-led-to-recalls.html?_r=1) to include a series of interconnected timelines involving a number of its automotive manufacturer customers and US federal regulatory investigators. The “Honda” timeline, for example, as related by the above newspaper: (Note – these reports suggesting malfunction appear to be allegations and not facts established by a court of law.) 2004 – “An air bag exploded in a Honda Accord … in Alabama, shooting out metal fragments and injuring the car’s driver. … Honda and … [Takata] deemed it “an anomaly” and did not issue a recall or seek the involvement of federal safety regulators.” 2007 – “Three additional ruptures [of Takata airbags were] reported to Honda ... Honda settled [each of these but] … did not issue a safety recall until late 2008, and then for only a small fraction – about 4,200 – of its vehicles… April 2009 – “An air bag in J G’s Honda Civic, which was not among the recalled vehicles, exploded after a minor accident in Orlando, Fla.
The air bag explosion sent a two-inch piece of shrapnel flying. When highway troopers found Ms. G, then 26, with blood gushing from a gash in her neck, they were baffled by the extent of her injuries. At Honda, engineers soon linked the accident to the previous ruptures.” May 2009 – “A P , 18, was killed in Midwest City, Okla., when the air bag in her 2001 Honda Accord exploded out of her steering wheel after a minor crash. … Honda filed only the required early warning reports on these incidents, which do not allow for specifics about the ruptures.” November 2009 – “Honda’s air bag problems caught the attention of federal regulators, … But the agency closed its inquiry after only six months, saying there was “insufficient information” to suggest [failure] to take timely action. December 2009 – “A Honda Accord driven by G R, 33, hit a mail truck in Richmond, Va. Her air bag exploded, propelling shrapnel into her neck and chest, and she bled to death in front of her three children…” April 2010 – “…A 2001 Honda Civic driven by 24-year-old K W exploded as she was stopped at a traffic light in Morrow, Ga. Metal shards punctured her neck, causing profuse bleeding, strokes and seizures… .” December 2011 – “Honda reported its death and injury tallies to regulators only in a confidential submission … when it issued its fifth recall for the rupture defect. June 2014 – “A low-speed accident involving a 2005 Honda Accord in Los Angeles caused the car’s driver air bag “to ‘detonate,’ sending hot metal and plastic shrapnel into the cabin… Honda has since expanded its recall to include vehicles registered in California.” The truth of the matter regarding malfunction remains to be seen. Anyone who remembers the “runaway Audi” hysteria may remain cautious. …by Cedric Hughes, Barrister & Solicitor with regular weekly contributions from Leslie McGuffin, LL.B.

The Richmond Orchestra and Chorus Association will take its audience to Russia next Saturday—at least in spirit— to kick off its 2014-2015 season. The orchestra will be joined on stage by cello protege Tate Zawadiuk for a concert titled “From Russia With Love.” The audience will hear Zawadiuk, 17, perform one of the most challenging concertos in the cello repertoire: Dmitri Shostakovich’s Cello Concerto No. 1 from 1959. “It is something really special to get to hear someone of this calibre perform the rarely performed Shostakovich cello concerto,” said James Malmberg, conductor of the Richmond Orchestra. Zawadiuk, who has performed solo with the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra and is principal cellist of the Vancouver Youth Symphony, said Shostakovich composed his works during a period when fear and frustration inspired his music. “The concerto is known to be among the most challenging works, yet it is quite satisfying to perform the work with the orchestra,” the young cellist told the Review. Shostakovich was in his 50s when he introduced his cello concerto in post-Stalinist Russia. After Josef Stalin’s death in 1953, censorship in the Soviet Union gradually eased, allowing the composer to release works he was previously forced to hold back.
The work begins with a march-like theme played by the soloist, and builds to the centrepiece third movement—”a virtuosic cadenza” for the cello soloist, according to the Royal Conservatory’s Stephen Satory. The concerto closes with a full-scale re-exposition of the first movement’s main theme. Zawadiuk might be among the youngest cellists to attempt the work on stage, but he has experience. He first picked up his instrument at age three, and by age 12 had debuted as a soloist with the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra after winning the Burnaby Clef Concerto competition. Zawadiuk was again featured as the soloist with the VSO at its 2011 Deer Lake concert and its Stanley Park performance that year marking Vancouver’s 125th anniversary. The Coquitlam teen now does his academic studies online, and flies to Calgary every three weeks for music training, having been awarded a scholarship to Mount Royal University Conservatory. In weeklong sessions in Calgary, Zawadiuk studies with John Kadz and Johanne Perron. Kadz, an accomplished chamber musician and a member of Mount Royal’s strings faculty, said the fact such a young player will perform the entire Shostakovich piece with an orchestra is remarkable. “The Shostakovich is a very powerful, emotional composition. It takes great interpretive skill, is a piece played on stage by leading solo cellists and it is very technically challenging. It also demands huge energy and physical endurance,” Kadz said yesterday. “Needless to say, I am very proud of him.”

EDITORIAL: Remember to cast your vote Tomorrow, it’s all up to voters. There’s certainly no shortage of interest from candidates: three candidates are running for mayor, 31 for council and 18 for school board. Even if voters elect all incumbents, there will still be new faces: two councillors and two trustees aren’t running again for their old jobs. And there’s plenty of reasons for voters to make their voices heard and put a dent in Richmond’s notoriously low voter turnout rate. Municipal governments are responsible for the big things, from building new pools and community centres to managing taxation policies and bylaws. City councils are also responsible for the
smaller, more mundane issues of garbage collection, trail upkeep and road maintenance. School boards are stewards of public education, there to not just ensure the books are balanced, but to help bring school communities together. School boards are advocates for our students and champions of programs that support their learning. Are you better off today than in 2011? Are you watching Richmond grow for the better or change for the worse? Has city hall listened to you? Are you comfortable with your bills for utilities and property taxes? Are you excited at the prospect of a new pool and seniors centre?
Is your neighbourhood school a welcoming place? Is public education important? Are local school programs relevant and engaging for our young learners? Are teachers getting the support they need? Are our school trustees true to the district’s motto of being focused on the learner? What’s clear is the city’s election office has made voting easy and accessible for all. And don’t let the number of names on the ballot keep you away. Voters can choose just one candidate if they wish. There is no requirement to vote for eight councillors or seven school trustees.

lowers are wonderful things, but did you know they have a secret side? Research into how bees pollinate plants has uncovered that flowers have an entirely different appearance when they are viewed under ultraviolet light, which bees can see. In the video I watched that illustrated this, a bouquet of flowers was first filmed in normal white light. The flowers were from different species, but were all plain yellow and approximately the same size and shape, so it was difficult for people to distinguish one variety from another. But bees had no problem telling the flowers apart. The secret was revealed when the bouquet was filmed in ultraviolet light, under which the plain flowers showed complex patterns that were completely invisible in normal light. While this discovery about the flowers is fascinating in its own right, I immediately saw it as a useful analogy for a core concept about food security that sometimes causes confusion. Quite simply, the tenet states that the food you eat should be acceptable to you from a personal, cultural or religious point of view. But what exactly does that mean?
Did you know flowers have a secret side?
When many people look at Richmond, they may think we don’t have serious food security challenges. After all, according to Statistics Canada, Richmond is heathiest city in the country. Our citizens live the longest on average, we have well-stocked supermarkets, numerous restaurants, and rich farmland suitable for growing valuable crops right within the city. So why would anyone have a problem with food security if they live here? The thing is, the Richmond I just described is like the bouquet of plain yellow flowers in the experiment with the bees. For Richmond residents who have an adequate income or no specific dietary restrictions, that version of the city looks perfect. But like how flowers change under ultraviolet light, the food security landscape in Richmond can shift dramatically if your dietary needs differ in ways that might make it difficult to find food that is acceptable on a personal, cultural
or religious level. For example, what if you are Muslim and you want to ensure that your food is halal (permitted or lawful according to your faith)? Maintaining such a diet can be a challenge even in Richmond with all its abundance. To see what I mean, the next time you go into a huge grocery store like Safeway or Save On Foods, see if you can try to locate some halal foods. Or for a different challenge, try to locate the types of foods that would be acceptable if you were following a kosher diet, or a gluten-free diet. Perhaps you are too poor to afford all the food you need, or maybe you are vegan, or only want to eat organic foods – what then does the store offer? What you’ll soon discover is that even with the cornucopia of food on display, for people with specific dietary needs or income problems, these stores suddenly seem to be quite small. What’s happening is that
you are now no longer seeing the ideal, yellow flower version of food security in Richmond, but what it looks like in a different light. And just like the bees who seek out specific flowers by their hidden patterns, you’d better hope that there is something in this newly revealed landscape that can nourish you. Of course, there are alternate channels that exist in or near Richmond that address subsets of food security requirements. Muslims, for example, often turn to a network of Muslim markets, organizations and businesses in the Lower Mainland to fulfill their dietary needs. There is even a food bank for Muslims that is indispensable (The Muslim Food Bank in Surrey, though they do service the needy of all faiths). Because other food banks might only have nonhalal (or haram - forbidden to the faith) food available, the Muslim Food Bank helps ensure that people won’t have to choose between eating donated food that
might violate their faith, or going hungry. The ‘ultraviolet’ version of Richmond’s food system that most people don’t normally see shows how even a healthy and prosperous city can run into problems meeting the food security needs of all its residents. From city councillors to average citizens, people in Richmond almost universally recognize food security as a priority issue. However, it’s clear that to develop truly effective food security policies, full community consultation is a must. Because it is so crucial to our health, planning Richmond’s food system must be done right to make sure nobody gets left out, but before that can happen, we have to make sure that everyone is seeing it in the same light.

FALL CLEAR OUT SALE ON THE BACK COVER OF THIS PAPER
Good choices are important for new four-year term council Editor: As a long-time resident of Richmond—50-plus years—I have been amazed at the number of people standing for public office this election! A record I am sure! Why? Is it a renewed interest in the management of our city? A need for change at the top? Or is it the amount of our tax dollars that are paid to city councils, currently some $55,000 plus added benefits of travel, meals, etc? I wonder how many residents are aware how this amount of payment has increased. Term limits should be brought in also-several of the current members have been elected and re-elected many times—Steves’ almost 40 years,
McNulty and Dang nearly 20 years and Johnston at 14 years. We need some new people bringing new ideas and experiences to council. I find it incorrect that a group of city employees, Richmond firefighters, take an active part in recommending candidates who will be their bosses in the new council! They are city employees. In today’s edition this group is given more press coverage as to whom they recommend. Questionable! Now with a new four-year term for those elected, good choices for this length of term in office are even more important! Victor Hillman Richmond

A fresh face for council!
Planning where you don’t have children In certain respects, it may be easier to make Estate and incapacity plans if you don’t have children. The main problem though, in my view, is finding the persons to represent you and manage your financial affairs (and your personal health care) if you lose capacity, or if you die. A recent article in the Wall Street Journal addresses the planning issues for childless couples.
School trustee race deserves more attention
Another critical issue is the implications of which person dies first. If no Will is ever made, relatives of the first to die will probably inherit nothing. Relatives of the surviving spouse will stand to inherit instead.
Editor: For what I understand “Election” means we go and vote for individuals who, in our own opinion, we fell will best serve the community for the intended purpose. In Richmond we have 18 candidate running for school trustee seats, how many of us registered voters really know our candidates, I ask?. Few organization have hosted mayoral and allcandidates debates. And this brings me to ask, is the school trustee election a “Side Show”? School trustees only had one debate on Nov. 5 for about 2 hours, hosted by the Richmond School Board. Attendees (audience) in general were supporters plus the regular election enthusiasts that we see at most debates. During these 2 hours we hardly heard a candidate speak for more than 7 minutes collectively. How can we get to know our
Spouses (married or common law) can always represent the other spouse but alternate representatives need to be found. Sometimes that is also easy. But the best steps you can take start with making Wills, so that you can benefit the people you want. If there is any concern with the surviving spouse entering a new relationship, a Mutual Wills Agreement can be made in order to eliminate any risk of the surviving spouse changing their Will after entering the new relationship.
VOTE
candidates within that time frame? If there was more than one meeting we can meet our potential candidates again, to reconfirm our own decision on voting day. I was surprise at the dismal numbers of teachers and principals in attendance at this one and only debate. The majority of the parents in attendance were the ones that were involved with the candidate. This lack of interest for the future of our younger generation is of lament concern to me. Is the education system a farce that “No One” really cares! Education is the bedrock of our community and I urge people “Parents and Voters” out there to make an effort to speak / talk to all the candidates for the school trustee and make an informed decision. Kay Hale Richmond
And with no children, incapacity is also a potentially risky situation financially. Poor representation can lead to financial abuse. Plans should be made, not only because the couple needs to find a trustworthy person to manage their finances, but also because it is possible a person can regain their capacity, and so will need the resources to live.

Editor: We, well many of us, certainly not enough will be voting on Saturday for our municipal representatives for mayor, council and school board. I suggest you read as much as you can to select a candidate, not go with name familiarity. That is perhaps the biggest reason why in municipal elections we see the same people time after time. Remember this time it is for four years! It is a pity that the high wages council has granted itself that the incumbents are also the biggest spenders to help achieve that name recognition.
Why do they want that job so desperately? Our mayor has collected over a million dollars in wages since being elected and so have some of the councilors. Our streets, new or old, are horrible movers of traffic— we are plugged up worse than a cheese tasters conventioneer. No one should be allowed to “serve” for this long, they have placed themselves on a pedestal and set up a very over-managed city. City managers don’t want to retire—again, high wages, actual demands of work are slim, and the higher you rise the more buffers between them and again the real world. Many don’t even live
in Richmond. Again, read what is available, phone their published numbers to ask questions that may be important to you. Don’t vote because someone has more and bigger signs. These are your tax dollars, council after serving for a long time treats it like a replenishing well, and the more you dip in, the more you have. I encourage you to vote, but do educate yourself as much as you can, something you want changed, well remember who put it into place to start with. It is most certainly time for term limits, two is plenty. Jim Crighton Richmond
Voters have a unique challenge this time Editor: I would like to express my gratitude for the support Richmond's local newspapers have given to the process of helping voters get to know the candidates and thoughts on current issues. The large number of candidates has given voters a unique challenge and your assistance in the process has been most helpful. Kudos also to all those working to assist voters to prepare to cast their ballots. The mailout to registered voters was very helpful. Advance voting was efficiently organized and area voting places clearly identified.
Staff serving in all aspects were pleasant and efficient. Thanks to all the organizations who organized meetings where voters could see and hear what candidates had to say. And thanks also to the candidates who gave freely of their time in various meetings to help voters get to know them. We will have to wait to see how well those elected can work together in unity and deal with the many responsibilities they have been elected to oversee. Merrill Muttart Richmond

Rival slates point fingers in tax hike debate by Martin van den Hemel Staff Reporter An attack ad that began playing every 15 minutes Thursday morning on two Chinese-language radio stationsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;on AM1320 (CHMB) and AM1470 (Fairchild Radio YVR)â&#x20AC;&#x201D;was described as a â&#x20AC;&#x153;new lowâ&#x20AC;? for Richmond First, according to Richmond Community Coalitionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Ken Johnston who spoke in defence of fellow incumbent Coun. Chak Au. Johnston, a former Richmond First member who earlier this year joined the Richmond Community Coalition, said he remains friends with his former colleagues at Richmond First, but was disheartened by the negative ad that targets Au.
â&#x20AC;&#x153;As a former member of Richmond First I have to tell you Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m extremely disappointed in their actions. I believe this election has been very good, focusing on policies, but to make an 11th hour attack on Chakâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s intergrity I think is below the belt...Those folks are still friends of mine...I have to tell you, in all the years in elections Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never seen anything like that from them,â&#x20AC;? Johnston said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;With all due respect, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re stooping to a new low, in my mind.â&#x20AC;? Au viewed the attack ad as aâ&#x20AC;&#x153;personal attack on my integrity,â&#x20AC;? he said. However, Richmond First Coun. Bill McNulty said the ads were â&#x20AC;&#x153;not negative ads.â&#x20AC;?

Last month, Coun. Linda McPhail singled out Au for wanting to â&#x20AC;&#x153;have it both waysâ&#x20AC;? by voting against for a proposed tax increase, while also being against a tax hike. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was on council this past year when I, and every other member of the Richmond First council team, voted against a proposed 3 % property

“If we take away the reserve for the future projects, one day we will have to make up for the shortage. We may have to double the tax increase at that time,” Au said Thursday. The radio ad on the Chinese radio stations were viewed by Au as a “personal attack on my integrity,” he said, describing the ad as a female voice reading from a script that singles out Au. The ad claims Au is inconsistent between his actions and his words and “I’m not trustworthy,” he said. “What really makes me upset is this issue has already been clarified when they first made the accusation and now they go back to...two Chinese radios to do the same thing.”

AskWalt NOT !
(Q=) I was buying a car privately and asked the seller for a vehicle history report. He told me theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a waste of time and money. Is that true? Thanks, Faith (A=) Hi Faith, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m with him on this one. Hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what you do: look at the car. If it looks good, just buy it.

Five undesirable collector cars whose values have exploded by Rob Sass The classic car world is possibly one of the most opinionated collecting pursuits known to man, and nearly everyone seems to have an opinion on relative values and desirability. Each car on the list has at one time or another been deemed by â&#x20AC;&#x153;expertsâ&#x20AC;? to be hopeless as a collectible and each has one thing in commonâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve skyrocketed in value. 1956-58 Studebaker Golden Hawk: Poor Studebaker, the cars of the ill-fated favorite son of South Bend, Ind., never seemed to get the same love from collectors as the cars of the Big Three. But they may be getting the last laugh. At a time when the prices of most American cars of the 1950s have been flat, the Golden Hawkhas been red-hot. With great looks and some of the best and sportiest interiors of American cars of the era, even European collectors have taken a new look at Hawks, where the carâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s small by American standards proportions make more sense. Ten years ago, these were $25,000 cars. This past January, a not terribly
well optioned car sold at an auction in Scottsdale, Ariz., for more than $100,000. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hear it for the underdog. 1965-69 Corvair convertible: The air-cooled rear-engine Corvair is perhaps the ultimate automotive underdog. The hatchet job that Ralph Nader did on the first generation of the car tainted even the vastly improved second-generation Corvair. In truth, it was a fantastic car, with great looks and even an optional turbocharger. Jay Leno loves his. Yet, historically, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve appealed to a narrow marketâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;fans of frontengine Chevy muscle shun the car as do import snobs, to whom the carâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s size, looks and handling should appeal. Collectors were fond of saying that Corvairs would always be cheap. How wrong they were. Nice convertibles struggled to break $15,000 less than 10 years ago; theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve since doubled in value. 1979-80 BMW M1: The M1 was BMWâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first foray into the midengine exotic world. Just over 450 were built. With a little development help early on from Lamborghini and some inspiration from an earlier Paul Braq-designed concept car, BMW produced
1976 Porsche 912E. a credible supercar and the first officially badged M-car that spawned a long line of special Motorsports BMWs. Back in the flamboyant 1970s, though, the car was deemed too low-key inside and out. But its subtle good looks have aged extremely well. As recently as 2003, an M1 sold for just $49,000 at an auction in the UK. Three years later, they were still going for well under $100,000. This past March, one sold at an auction in Florida for $379,000. 1976 Porsche 912E: Porsche has always struggled with the entry-level stuff. They know that they should have an entry-level car, but theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve often either fumbled the execution and/or suffered a backlash from the Porsche snobs. The 912E was a one-year-only stop-gap effort that held down the down-market fort after the end of 914 while the front-
engine, water-cooled 924 was readied for the U.S. It was essentially a stripper 911 with a VW Transporter-derived 2.0-liter Type IV air-cooled four-cylinder engine. On the surface, a sports car with a bus engine sounds like a bad idea, but it was actually the same engine from the outgoing 914, and if you could get past the sound, it was quite pleasant with tons of low-end torque. Just under 2,100 were made (all were sold in the U.S.), and while in the past it has been derided by supposed Porsche experts as â&#x20AC;&#x153;perennially undesirable,â&#x20AC;? the 912Eâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mid-â&#x20AC;&#x2122;70s vintage 911 looks and easy serviceability have made them quite desirable today. I personally paid $6,500 for a nice one in 2005. The same car would be worth $20,000 today. A New York dealer has recently advertised one for just under $40,000. 1955-63 Mercedes-Benz 190SL: The 190SL has lived forever in the shadow of its bigger, sportier and more powerful sibling the 300SL. And while theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re outwardly a bit similar, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in a whole different league performance-wise. The 190SL used to be dismissed as â&#x20AC;&#x153;a German Thunderbird,â&#x20AC;? or a car whose looks wrote a check that its performance couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t cash. But as 300SLs rose to over $1 million, collectors began to accept the 190SL for what is wasâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;a very well-built and pretty sunny day cruiser. Cars that traded for under $50,000 just a few years ago can now bring a quarter of a million dollars. Rob Sass is the vice-president of content for Hagerty Insurance.

An Acura made in Canada, just for Canada The Acura CSX was made in Canada and only sold in Canada. Essentially it’s a sportier and more luxurious Honda Civic as it shares most major parts, other than engines. So, an owner not only gets the renowned reliability, fuel efficiency and functionality of a Civic, but also a higher level of performance and luxury ... very nice! First released for the 2006 model year, CSX came with a 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine that can also be found in an Acura RSX, with slightly different tuning. A suspension upgrade also gives CSX better handling than a Civic and it originally came in Touring and Premium (with leather upholstery, Xenon headlights and a power sunroof) trim levels. A new more performance oriented version called the Type-S replaced Premium for the 2007 model year. The standard 2.0-litre engine can produce 155 horsepower, but the 2.0-litre in a Type-S version can churn-out 197 horsepower. The manual transmission in a base CSX is a five-speed, while the Type-S has a six-speed. A five-speed
automatic transmission was a popular option, An automatic model also comes with steering wheel mounted paddle-shift (manual) controls. Using the newly revised (and more realistic) fuel economy rating method, a CSX (auto) should get 10.9/7.8 L/100 km (city/ highway) and 10.0/7.6 L/100 km (city/highway) with the manual transmission. Other than leather upholstery, which became standard on every CSX, there were no significant changes for 2008 model year. In 2009, the CSX got a minor facelift up front and 17-inch wheels, fog lights and USB port for audio players all became standard equipment. The CSX Type-S became the CSX i-Tech (and came with xenon headlights, a navigation system and Bluetooth connectivity) for the 2011 model year, its final year of production. A used CSX doesn’t cost too much more than a top-line Civic. Not only do you get more content and performance, Acura models also come with a longer warranty than Honda. Full coverage is for 4 years or 80,000 km, compared to 3 years/60,000

km from Honda. You won’t find ratings for an Acura CSX in Consumer Reports or the results of any US crash testing. However, it’s safe to assume that it would achieve similar results to the Honda Civic, which does spectacularly well in owner survey ratings and also receives top ratings occupant protection in a collision. Used prices may be on the high side, but if you like the Honda Civic, yet desire a little extra pampering and performance, take a look and a drive in used Acura CSX.

E
ach month in this column we try to provide some insight into the types of care provided to you and your family at Richmond Hospital. One of the most difficult parts of the human experience we all share in common is coming to terms with
our own mortality or that of a loved one. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a difficult topic, but we all know life is finite. Modern medicine as advanced and as sophisticated as it is can only achieve so much. Whether itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s due to cancer, heart disease, advanced Alzheimerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s or some other illness, ultimately, we all must address issues around the end of life. Richmond Hospital is fortunate to have an Integrated Hospice and Palliative Care program. Dr. Alec Alexiadis is the medical director and joined the team two years ago. Originally from Nova Scotia, Dr. Alexiadis, moved to B.C. in 1993 and began a family practice. See Page 24

They often need to have their care re-evaluated, their symptoms better

We seek to try and have very meaningful conversations with everyone involved with our patients. I always feel we can add benefit to a patientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s experience or their familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just by creating a dialogue. The fear is minimized. â&#x20AC;&#x153; â&#x20AC;?Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re trying to help people understand that to acknowledge oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s suffering can bring people closer together.

workers and counselors, will do whatever they can to ensure that the experience of end of life can be made a little less distressing and a lot more meaningful.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Donors and volunteers play a very important role in enhancing the care that our patients and families receive. From furnishings and equipment, to books and special events, we have all benefited from the gifts of donors. This is a very sensitive time in peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lives. Making the ward more comfortable and home-like is instrumental in making a patientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s experience less traumatic. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a wonderful gift that donors and volunteers give back to the friends and families of their community.â&#x20AC;?

Ravens rule Four Nations by Don Fennell Sports Editor One opposing coach at the Four Nations Cup girlsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; minor hockey tournament last weekend in Kamloops described the Richmond Ravens as â&#x20AC;&#x153;coming at you in waves.â&#x20AC;? Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not much of an exaggeration. Thanks to great depth, talent and discipline, the Ravens literally overwhelmed their opponents en route to winning the Bantam AAA title, blanking the Spruce Grove Saintsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;Albertaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top-ranked AAA teamâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;8-0 in Saturday afternoonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s championship game. Featuring many of the top teams from the neighbouring provinces, the tournament was, never the less, a good test for the Ravens who were coming off a disappointing overtime loss to Surrey in their own rep tournament two weeks ago. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The girls were very determined to keep getting better and be ready for the Four Nations Cup,â&#x20AC;? said head coach Tony Lindsay. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They got better every game, and learned from our first tournament how hard it is to win. The team remained very focused throughout and simply outworked every team they played.â&#x20AC;? See Page 27

Richmond opened tournamenet play with a 4-0 win over Kamloops and then topped Spruce Grove 5-1. They completed the roundrobin with a 14-0 win over Prince George and then scored a 7-2 win over a strong Kelowna team to reach the final against Spruce Grove, which upset Surrey 5-4 in the other semifinal. Ravens were led by the high-scoring line of Myah Bowal, Kirsten Abo and Jenna Velji, who scored a combined 20 goals over the five games. â&#x20AC;&#x153;One of their best attributes is that they are unselfish and donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really care who scores the goals, â&#x20AC;&#x153; said Lindsay. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In fact, they scored almost an equal number.â&#x20AC;? Ravens also had strong offensive contributions from the first year line of Madison Warren, Macy Young, and Naomi Choong. In net, Jenna Ehling allowed only three goals and was named MVP in the final with 26 saves.
Kate Reilly, Hannah Green, Stephanie Moy, Kiki Linders and Erika Palmieri were solid on defence, and forwards Raman Rai, Darci Johal, Hannah Shihundu and

L
ittle Mountain Trio’s musical recipe starts with some bluegrass. Stir in some country, spice it up with some rhythm and blues, and season with swing. Add a pinch of Latin, and simmer for about 30 years.
It’s a well-seasoned folk band, returning to Britannia Shipyards for a concert next week. Rob McGregor handles mandolin, Kitty King is on bass and Dave Lidstone takes care of guitar duties. All three are strong lead and harmony singers and each brings something different to the band. In a recent interview with The Richmond Review, McGregor said the band plays music found all over the acoustic roots musical map. “From a background in folk and bluegrass music, Little Mountain Trio has expanded its repertoire
in recent years to include jazz, rhythm and blues, country and a growing list of original music,” he said. “The band’s eclectic sound is rounded out with a broad repertoire of folk, jazz and original instrumentals.” The group started out in 1983 as a bluegrass quartet called the Little Mountain Band. Joined in those days by banjo player Don Dirksen, the band emerged from the vibrant bluegrass scene that existed in Vancouver in the early 1980s. After a long break from performing, when members raised families and pursued higher education, the band reunited in 2005. “A few years later, the Little Mountain Trio was born when our banjo player Don Dirksen decided to leave the band. As a trio, we have developed a much more eclectic repertoire and sound than the original bluegrass quartet,” said McGregor. McGregor has been playing mandolin since 1977. His fascination with mandolin music,

In store for the audience is a wide variety of music, including a mix of original compositions, blues, jazz and even some country.

Holidays potentially hazardous to pets The holiday season is full of joy. But in the midst of decorating and socializing, pet owners may overlook the needs of their pets. Hectic schedules and homes full of unusual décor can throw pets off-kilter. No pet owner wants their pet to feel uncomfortable or suffer any injuries, so it's important that owners exercise caution with the following items come the holiday season.
· Bones: Is turkey on the menu for the family feast? If so, resist the urge to toss some bones and scraps to dogs or cats. Small bones or bone chips can become lodged in the digestive tracts of pets and cause serious injury. If you want to provide your pet with a holiday treat, choose a safer, storebought bone. · Aromatic oils: The holidays are not the same without the familiar scent of mint, cinnamon or
pine. Some people resort to scented candles or aromatherapy oils to create the perfect holiday ambiance. But some synthetic aromas or even natural extracts can be toxic to cats and dogs. Stick to nontoxic items and keep them well out of the pet's reach. · Chocolate and other sweets: An abundance of treats seems to be par for the course during the holiday season. Dogs should avoid all choco-

late, but dark chocolate poses a particularly serious threat. Chocolate can cause agitation, elevated heart rate, diarrhea, vomiting, seizures, and even death. In addition, candy or cookies sweetened with the artificial sweetener xylitol can cause a dangerous drop in blood pressure for dogs. · Pine needles and trees: When ingested, pine needles can puncture the intestines of pets. In search of an easy drink, dogs and cats may be drawn to the fresh water reservoir of live trees, increasing the likelihood that they knock over a Christmas tree, injuring themselves and caus-

· Tinsel and decorations: Skip the tinsel if you have a cat. Felines are likely to mistake tinsel for a toy. Eating

tinsel can cause severe damage to a cat's intestinal tract, as it may get caught in the stomach while the rest of it continues to pass through the intestines. Tinsel also may wrap around the tongue, increasing the cat's risk of choking. Ornaments also are tempting playthings. Cats may pounce on glass ornaments, breaking them and suffering injury. Keep pets in mind when selecting tree ornaments, and opt for unbreakable ornaments when possible. · Electrical cords: Holiday lights mean more electrical cords for kittens and puppies to chew. Secure all cords and keep them out of reach of pets. · Candles: The subtle flicker of a lit candle can add ambiance to a space. But all it takes is the swish of a tail or the pat of a paw to knock over a candle and spark a fire. Never leave lit candles unattended. If you have boisterous pets, opt for LED simulated candles instead. · Alcohol: Spirits are sometimes a part of celebrations, but alcoholic beverages should be kept out of reach of pets. Alcohol suppresses the immune system, and it can result in significant health issues for pets who consume it. The holiday season is a time for celebration. Ensure that these festivities are as safe for pets as they are enjoyable

Having built up quite a following with their surprising success this season, Hugh Boyd Trojans will face an even bigger challenge tonight when Chilliwack’s G.W. Graham Grizzlies come calling. After improving to 6-0 following a 14-6 exhibition win last weekend at the Pitt Meadows Marauders, the Trojans have become favourites rather than underdogs. But Bruce Haddow, co-head coach of the Trojans with his brother Bill, certainly isn’t looking beyond the Grizzlies. And neither are his players. “(The Grizzlies) are the biggest team in AA football,” says Haddow of a Chlliwack team that brings a 4-2 record into Friday’s high school football playoff game at Hugh Boyd Park. Kickoff is 7:30 p.m. “We’re going to be facing a huge size disadvantage, but we like our speed and we’re going to have to rely on this if we hope to pull out a victory.” Besides size, notably on the offensive line, the Grizzlies also have talent led by a very good backfield and strong receivers. “They ‘ve got good petigree too, having won the junior provincial title last year,” he said. The Trojans, however,
are no slouches in the talent department either. They placed eight players on the conference all-star team led by quarterback Tyler Moxin, given the nod as the top offensive Grade 11 player, and Max Grenzberg who was picked the MVP on defence. Other Trojans earning all-star recognition were Gabe Saklofski at running back, Marl Hayduk on the defensive line, Austin Do at defensive back, Anthony Giorno at defensive back, Jacob Tubajon at linebacker and Malykh Lopez at linebacker. Hugh Boyd is coming off an emotional win over No. 5-ranked Pitt Meadows. The game was called in the third quarter after a Marauders’ player suffered a broken leg. “It was absolutely the right decision to suspend the game,” said Haddow. “All the players, including ours, were upset. At that, especially in an exhibition game, football goes out the window and the No. 1 concern is for the player’s well being.” Hugh Boyd dominated first-half play, with Moxin and Saklofsky rushing for more than 100 yards each. Moxin scored both touchdowns. In contrast, Pitt Meadows—a good team in their own right at 4-2 on the season—had just one first down.

Seafair Bantam C1 Islanders win Seattle’s Fall Face-off.
Richmond Midget C1 Blues celebrate winning the Ice Classic.
Richmond Bantam A2 Blues top Coquitlam Challenge.
Isles outscore Blues in final Blues blank Vernon for title Blues ground Hawks in OT Following the lead of their captain, Seafair Minor Hockey’s Bantam C1 Islanders scored an exciting victory south of the border at the Seattle Junior Hockey Association’s Bantam C Fall Face-off tournament last weekend in Lynnwood, Wash. Cameron Knight’s hat trick powered the Islanders to a 9-0 semifiinal win over Surrey ThunderKings on Saturday, but it was a solid team effort that secured the title Sunday as Seafair outscored Richmond Minor Hockey Hitmen 4-0 in the gold medal game. While it may seem odd to travel 200 kilometres to face a team that plays out of the same home rink, one Seafair parent said “it’s a testament to the high quality of minor hockey in Richmond.” Going into the tournament with a 10-1 league record, Seafair was denied a win in its opening game at the tournament being held to a 4-4 draw by North Delta Demons. But the Islanders got it going in the next game, a 2-0 shutout of the Ridge Meadows Rustles, followed by a 10-0 blanking of Seattle Badgers and 6-3 doubling of the Kamloops Spartans. Coached by Dan Wallace and Paul Knight, and managed by Nancy Wong, Seafair C1’s roster comprises of goalie Jonathan Cook, Jaeden Atkinson, Marvin Bader, Connor Batkin, Aaron Benatar, Cameron Knight, James Murgatroyd, Darren Rodgers, Kaedon Samy, Parker Shaw, Liam Anderson-Siefert, Quinn Tyhy, Emma Wallace, Ethan Wong and Mitchell Wong.

Coaches are Tom Johnston, Ray Mah and Arthur Wong. The popular Seafair tournament attracted teams from across B.C., with nine of the 12 from outside the Lower Mainland. Each of the travel teams was allowed two overage players, making it quite the challenge for the local younger teams.
