City, RCMP stick with ‘troubled marriage’ Cost of forming own police force deemed too expensive, mayor says Wanda Chow
wchow@burnabynewsleader.com
It’s been two-and-a-half years since Burnaby city hall signed a new 20-year contract with the RCMP under duress. But while Mayor Derek Corrigan has nothing but good things to say about the Burnaby RCMP detachment and the people that work there, it’s obvious he’s still

The conclusion? “It’s expensive, tens of millions [of dollars],” Corrigan said. The challenge, and main costs, would be in the transition. Essentially, a second police department, with all its own equipment and fully-trained officers, would have to be set up and run simultaneously for a time with the original one, to ensure a seamless transition. “None of that comes cheap.”

The Burnaby Board of Trade is concerned about the safety and economic benefits of Kinder Morgan’s proposal to expand its Trans Mountain pipeline through this city. In a report issued Wednesday the BBOT, which represents 1,200 Burnaby businesses, said it supports “responsible resource development” and the need to open new markets for Canada’s oil exports. But it is worried about the risk of spills and ruptures in the case of an earthquake, and questions the ability of Kinder Morgan and emergency personnel to be able to respond to such an occurrence. The report also doubts that risk is worth the approximately $6.2 million in additional annual tax revenue the city would realize. “The economic benefits of this project do not flow to Burnaby in a manner equal to the risk undertaken by the city as a terminus of the project,” states the review of the pipeline project.

As a result, the cities involved, Burnaby included, stepped back and were hopeful the better relationship with Ottawa that was promised when they signed the 2012 contract would become a reality. “Unfortunately, we’re not seeing much evidence that that in fact
works. We’re still getting unilateral decisions being made in Ottawa and imposed on us.” Corrigan stressed the problems are not at the level of the local detachments, “it’s always what happens in Ottawa.” He complimented the Burnaby RCMP’s ability to do as good a job as they do under sometimes
difficult circumstances. “They’re caught between two masters and trying to please everyone.” Decisions are made by the Conservative federal government “for whatever political reason and it will have a shivering impact on departments right across Canada” and show a “real disconnect” with their impact at the municipal
level, he said. So far, local municipalities have not yet reached the point where they’ve decided there is no other choice but to break away from the RCMP. “Hope springs eternal, you’re always looking for some way to fix the problem as opposed to making a radical split.” For Corrigan, that hope
includes a possible change in federal government with an election due no later than Oct. 19. “I think that a fresh set of eyes on the RCMP might be very, very healthy for everybody, including the RCMP,” he said, adding “we need to have a better hand on the tiller in Ottawa.”

The report was prepared by a special task force appointed by the BBOT’s board of directors after the business organization was granted commenter status at upcoming National Energy Board hearings into Kinder Morgan’s application to twin its pipeline from Edmonton to the Westridge Terminal in North Burnaby. The task force spent nearly a year gleaning information from academic studies, consultant reports, government reports, news stories and other resources. It also held meetings with representatives from interest groups like the City of Burnaby, Kinder Morgan, and the Canadian Energy Pipeline Association. “As the voice of business in Burnaby, we felt we had a responsibility to fully explore the Trans Mountain proposal so that we could provide thoughtful, objective insight to inform both our members and our Letter of Comment to the National Energy Board,” said BBOT president and CEO Paul Holden. The review also considered the jobs that would be created by the pipeline expansion, shipping safety, spill response, liability and responsibility as well as the lack of a cooperative relationship between the project’s proponents and key local stakeholders.

PHOTO OF THE WEEK: Burnaby’s Gord Weisflock took this photo on his patio last summer. ‘I was working on my laptop when three raccoons came wandering around the corner of the building and got curious about everything, especially the ornament rabbits in the garden,’ he says. ‘My camera was nearby so I grabbed it and took some photos. We seem to have become part of their routine walk every few days or so.’
Hockey’s toll Canadian hockey fans are still basking in the glow of last week’s win in the gold medal game of the World Junior Hockey Championship. Combine that with the gold medals the team of Canadian women and NHL pros won at the Sochi Winter Olympics last year, and we’re sitting on top of the hockey world. But as we’ve seen from some recent local incidents, the pressure to get there can exact a toll. On Friday the NewsLeader reported on an alleged assault of a young hockey player by his teammate in their dressing room after practice at the Burnaby Winter Club. Police are investigating. The boys are 11 years old. That incident happened just hours after the parent of another Burnaby Winter Club player was sentenced for threatening a teammate of his then-nineyear-old son at a rink in North Vancouver in 2013. In 2012 a coach in the New Westminster Minor Hockey Association was suspended for fighting an opposing coach in front of players. In our hockey-crazed country, ascending the game’s ladder to play professionally, and the adulation and wealth that comes with that achievement, is pretty much the Canadian dream. But the reality is very, very few ever realize it—less than .05 per cent of elite youth players according to one recent study. Those long odds have fuelled a huge industry to help kids overcome them, from $200 hockey sticks to private hockey academies that cost thousands of dollars. With that kind of investment by parents comes pressure. When that pressure bursts, it’s ugly and the sport is sullied. Because on the ice, when it’s played with speed and grace and sportsmanship at whatever level, hockey is a beautiful game. It’s the off-ice antics that need work.

A better world, too late for Kevin It was the 8 a.m. concert band class. I was in Grade 10, or maybe 11. We were a big group—perhaps 50 of us—and as a bass player I was tucked in the back row with the percussion section. There were three or four guys on things like snare drums, timpani, cymbals and the like. I don’t remember the song, but Kevin had the cymbals. The song required one of those 1812 Overture-style flourishes— CRASH—and Kevin was having a hard time. We’d attended elementary school together. His house was just a couple hundred yards from the school. He was quirky. Not in his behaviour, but his English accent, big ears and a sharp nose set him apart. He was so painfully shy you had to strain to hear him at times. I also remember him as a kind and gentle kid. That day in band, all eyes were on him. The teacher stopped the song
Chris Bryan and told him to give the cymbals a real crash. *clink* “Come on Kevin, a big crash!” the teacher demanded. *clink* And so on, until the teacher lost his cool. “COME ON, KEVIN!” The room dissolved into laughter. At the teacher’s frustration. But also at Kevin’s inexplicable inability to express himself. Isn’t smashing cymbals the controlled mayhem all teens love? For some reason, Kevin just couldn’t. Years later, I wondered what life was like for Kevin at that time. Did he have many friends? Didn’t seem to.
7438 Fraser Park Dr., Burnaby, B.C. V5J 5B9 newsroom@burnabynewsleader.com burnabynewsleader.com | newwestnewsleader.com
Was he teased a lot? Did he fit in somewhere? For an average kid the cymbal thing would just be embarrassing. I wondered if for Kevin it was like another small stone placed upon a set of shoulders already carrying too many. A couple years earlier, I hung with a group of friends. One guy was obese, and we teased him relentlessly. Silly names I won’t repeat. He was tough and smart, though, and gave as good as he got. I liked him as well as any of my friends, but we exploited his vulnerability. At my last high school reunion, we caught up. He apologized—to me!—for how we treated each other. Like I said, he gave as good as he got, but I was an a**hole to him. And he was outnumbered. Maybe it’s the fact we’ve both grown up. We’re parents now, and consider some of our childhood behaviour not just childish, but cruel. But it’s a different world now, too.

The hurtful teasing, the names, the bullying—it still happens in schools today, but those who challenge it, those who would stamp it out, are empowered. Bullying prevention starts the day kids arrive at school. It’s part of the curriculum from kindergarten through Grade 12, in one form or another. One particularly powerful program called RespectEd: Beyond the Hurt, used in New Westminster, involves high school students acting as facilitators in grades 6 and 7 classes, talking about how it’s not cool to be a bully. Last year, 800 students took part. There’s just so much talk and modelling around respectful behaviour and interaction today. Next month is Pink Shirt Day, a day of solidarity for all people against bullying of any form. Many schools have gay-straight alliance clubs, and in New West and Burnaby there are specific policies to prevent homophobia. Please see NO LONGER CALLED, A7

Another condo tower proposed for Metrotown Mario Bartel
photo@burnabynewsleader.com
Another high-rise condominium tower is being proposed for Burnaby’s Metrotown area. Polygon Development is seeking rezoning for five lots including 6592 and 6650 Dunblane Ave. as well as 6579 and 6611 Marlborough Ave. The lots are currently zoned for multiple family residential and are occupied by four walk-up apartment buildings built in the early 1960s. A staff report said the buildings are “in fair condition but in need of repair.” The developer is proposing to build 245 condo units in a 37-storey tower along with eight townhouses along Dunblane and Marlborough avenues.
All required parking would be underground and accessed from a private lane that connects Dunblane and Marlborough. The developer will also provide 39 two-zone transit passes for at least two years to residents, as well as three electric vehicles and charging stations to be used and administered by the building’s strata. About 10 per cent of the 339 parking spaces will be equipped with plug-in stations. Polygon is also applying for additional density under Burnaby’s supplemental density program. That density would be worth about $10.3 million which would be designated for community facilities in the Metrotown area, including a new performance and events centre.
ENTIRE MENU UNDER $6.95 DAILY HIGH BALL OR SLEEVE
As a large portion of the site will need to be excavated, the developer will have to provide an arborist’s report and tree survey to identity trees that need to be removed as well as a detailed landscaping and tree planting plan. An acoustical study to show the project meets the city’s noise criteria will also be required. The staff report noted the development complies with the city’s plan for the Metrotown Town Centre. It said the proposal “exemplifies exceptional urban design and architectural expression.” And it will also include a “signature public art installation,” along Dunblane Avenue. The report recommends the rezoning application go to a public hearing on Jan. 27.

I have no idea what Kevin’s life was like. I have no clue the trajectory from that day in band class, from high school, from any of it to that horrible end. Are the Kevins of today having a better time? I hope so. Chris Bryan is editor of the NewsLeader.

WHERE EXCITEMENT LIVES
Children today are subject to pressures that didn’t exist a generation or two ago. But in terms of bullying, they’re being given the tools to spot it and are more empowered to stop it. In 2015, there’s no more “snitching” or “finking.” It’s “reporting”—and doing so is a point of pride. And there’s a more open dialogue about what is playful teasing, what is mean, and when and where it becomes bullying and cruelty. As for Kevin, not long after we graduated from high school
he tried to rob a Brinks truck in downtown Vancouver. He pried open the door, slashed a Brinks guard in the face with a knife and tried to steal a handful of cash before fleeing. As he ran away, the other guard shot him in the buttocks. Kevin kept running, out by the corner of Howe and Dunsmuir streets. The next gunshot hit him in the back of the head. That was it for Kevin. His parents were shocked. He’d never had a brush with the law before, they said. But later, investigators found a bullet-proof vest, shotgun,

A restructuring of the Metro Vancouver board’s committee structure will mean a higher profile and shifting duties for some regional politicians this year. Board chair Greg Moore of Port Coquitlam, who was acclaimed as chair last month, unveiled the changes Tuesday. North Vancouver District Mayor Richard Walton takes over the regional planning committee from Burnaby Mayor Derek Corrigan, who remains as one of its members. The committee, which stickhandles major land-use decisions and the Metro growth strategy, gets newly elected New Westminster Mayor Jonathan Cote as vice-chair. Corrigan takes over a new climate action committee that will handle air quality, environmental planning and climate change issues, including greenhouse gas reduction efforts and climate change adaptation.
He will also be vice-chair of the zero waste committee and will sit on the intergovernment and finance committee and the federal gas task force. A new performance and procurement committee is chaired by Port Moody Mayor Mike Clay, his first chairing role. Vancouver Coun. Raymond Louie chairs the new intergovernmental and finance committee, which has two sub-committees on electoral area issues and regional culture. Moore also created a new regional economy task force he will chair himself to seek ways to strengthen the economy and expand business opportunities.. He continues to chair the Metro mayors’ committee, with Vancouver’s Gregor Robertson as vice-chair. Burnaby Coun. Colleen Jordan will sit on the housing, the performance and procurement, and the utilities committees. Coun. Sav Dhaliwal is on the regional parks and aboriginal relations committees.

was big enough for a bowl of water. Please note, Mr Chevy. Having the navigation system was great as getting to our destination was a little tricky, and finding our way in the dark could have been a minor trial. Our friendly ‘nav-lady’ delivered us easily. I especially liked getting plenty of warning about upcoming turns. Some navigation systems instruct you to turn at the very last moment, which is not helpful. Often our ‘nav-lady’ gave us two warnings sometimes even three ‘turn left in 250 metres’, ‘turn left in 100 metres’. Believe me it was comforting. All the places we wanted to visit parks, malls, trails and shops were easily found with no hassles. In Tacoma, a third dog joined us for adventures around town – Beau, a large
yellow lab. Everyone knows labs are eternal puppies who enjoy good times no matter where they land. This happy boy landed in the cargo area with the other two and still there was plenty of room for all three dogs with nary a complaint about someone’s paw being on someone’s side. It all made for a fun Christmas celebration with lots of treats, even for my backup navigator Patricia and myself. Next year, the ‘kids’ are holding out for a Cadillac! 2015 Chevrolet Traverse AWD LT Power: 2.6-litre V6, 281 horsepower, six-speed auto transmission. Base price: $43,460 (as tested, $53,285)

Safety Tip: Black ice can form unexpectedly on the road in the winter and may not be visible. If you drive over black ice and start to skid, ease off the accelerator – don’t brake – and look and steer smoothly in the direction you want to go. You may need to repeat this maneuver.

Not the Volvo your parents remember By Alexandra Straub Driveway
There are a few schools of thought when it comes to writing down your to-do lists. One argument says that writing lists causes the brain to get lazy; therefore, it doesn’t retain information as easily because it knows there is a backup somewhere. Another suggests that highly effective people write lists because when they scratch their tasks off, it creates positive reinforcement and motivates individuals to continue to work hard. Call my brain lazy but I love lists. It seemed only natural to have such a list while the Volvo’s performance version of V60 sportwagon was in my garage. The V60 Polestar is evocative, sexy, incredibly agile and designed to satisfy with every ride. Yes, this is a Volvo. Clad in a Rebel Blue robe, our time together would not be for eternity, but the memory will recall the experience without need of a list! Here are just a few things that I felt inspired to do with the 345 horsepower V60. 1) Have fun. 2) Find some snow and play in it. 3) Paint my toenails the same colour as its exterior. You know, because it’s what all the cool kids are doing. 4) Impress first-time Volvo passengers with its competency. 5) Make a Polestar joke (or many) and see how many people laugh at my sharp wit. 6) Make use of its 692L cargo capacity. 7) Accelerate quickly. Make someone’s day. And the list could go on . . . The Lower Mainland doesn’t experience the wrath of winter as other parts of Canada do. Regardless, this V60 warmed up in a flash. Minutes into my drive the heated seats in full swing, the heated steering wheel toasting my fingers, and the hot air blowing out of the vents. The Swedes know cold and how to keep it outside. The car’s handling prowess can be attributed to its front and rear Öhlins Shock Absorbers, MacPherson front and multilink independent rear suspension. This V60 gives you the confidence you’d like in turns while having a blast and making sure occupants are comfortable. Then there’s what really gets the party started. Under its hood is a 3.0L, turbocharged T6 engine that produces the aforementioned 345 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque. Torque is harnessed as low as 2,800 rpm and then delivered via a 6-speed automatic transmission. Paddle shifters also come as standard equipment. If there were to be more of a kick while accelerating quickly, that would beRatES welcome, aS LOWbut aS not necessary. Speaking of acceleration, getting up to 100km/h from zero takes a mere 4.9 seconds. The only real drawback of the Polestar, I found, was its turning radius. Tight turns at low speeds wasn’t ideal. At the end of our test time together, I’m happy to report that I checked off all the items on the list. The Volvo V60 Polestar is available in limited quantities and has an MSRP of $66,895.

Delta rise offers the urban convenience with great views The Delta area is moving up and quickly being recognized as a desirable place to live – so why not do it in the sky? Picture a curving tower that overlooks sprawling views of the Lower Mainland and you will begin to understand why buyers are excited about Delta Rise by Marshall Mountain Homes and ITC Construction Group. At 37 storeys high, it is the tallest tower in North Delta and offers class, convenience and security in an urban environment. The large decks, expansive outdoor
living spaces and oversized windows capitalize on the use of natural light and an airy, open setting. The decks are two to three times the size of a typical high rise, and although the sizes vary on each unit, the large outdoor space is big enough for homeowners to live the life they want. While inside, the open-concept kitchens come equipped with a stainless steel appliance package and polished quartz countertops, perfect for cooking up a meal and entertaining guests. Each floor plan is designed with
every day needs in mind and come in a variety of configurations in one-, two and three-bedroom plans. Prices start at $204,900 for the one-bedroom, $242,900 for the two-bedroom and the three-bedrooms starting at $412,900, which includes two parking spaces. Beyond the feel of spacious luxury, Principle of OTEZS Project Marketing, Bill Szeto says that Delta Rise offers “lock and go living” that allows homeowners to have a great home, plus safety and security to take vacations without worrying while they are away.

Affordable waterfront living in a vibrant community The name says it all - Riversky homes by Bosa Properties combines affordable waterfront living with breathtaking views. Rising up from the river’s edge are two beautifully designed towers that appear to touch the sky. Located on New Westminster’s Esplanade boardwalk, part of the award winning Westminster Pier Park spanning 2.5 km along the waterfront, the building is surrounded by shops, amenities and magnificent views of the Fraser River. “It’s an amazing waterfront opportunity that is unlike any in Metro Vancouver,” says Marketing Manager, Courtney Osinchuk. “New Westminster’s waterfront is a vibrant, growing community that has easy access to downtown Vancouver, via the SkyTrain, shopping and restaurants at your door step, all of the food experiences and activities at the River Market, as well as amazing city and river views.” The one - two - and threebedroom homes start on the sixth floor and up, allowing for maximum views of the river and sky. Prices for one-bedroom start at $229,900 and the two-bedroom homes start at $339,900. The spacious design allows owners to live bigger and brighter, with features including the ExtenTABLE™, SleepTHEATRE™ and BosaSPACE™ design, perfect for transforming all one-bedroom homes into the ideal space for dining and entertaining purposes. There is also a private fitness centre and rooftop entertainment lounge on site. Combining metropolitan convenience with suburban landscapes, New West is a buzzing community

that is quickly gaining attention as the place to be. It’s home to numerous museums, theatres and facilities, while also catering to the great outdoors, with 48 parks and 141 hectares of green space—including the boardwalk right on your doorstep. “Along the riverfront, the new Westminster Pier Park is invit-
ing and allows you to get close to nature,” says Osinchuk. “You will see families strolling, kids playing, people running along the riverfront.” With Riversky’s outstanding views, enjoy the changing canvas of the sky punctuated by mountains on the horizon, the swiftly flowing water and the lights of the vibrant city shinning below as night falls.
“There is life on the river, but also the sense of calm and relaxation that waterfront living brings,” says Osinchuk. “There is a great community in downtown New Westminster; the historic buildings add character and presence to this growing community. It’s the perfect location; in the city, yet nestled away from the hustle and bustle along the waterfront.”
This is the vision of affordable living and there are no limits to what the eye can see with RiverSky. The Sales Centre and Display Suite will open be opening in early 2015. For the first opportunity at RiverSky, register at bosaproperties. com. Or call 604-522-2583 for more information.
