Volkow wants the madness to stop City councillor says real estate is much more than an investment

By Jeremy Deutsch

jdeutsch@burnabynow.com

Burnaby city councillor Nick Volkow knows firsthand just how wild the housing market has become in Metro Vancouver. He was one of the roughly 7,000 property owners in the city who received a letter in December giving him a heads up the value of the modest home he bought more than 30 years ago would now be worth well into seven figures. Specifically, the value of Volkow’s home on Gilpin Crescent was set to increase by about 35 per cent, to $1.31 million from $956,000 just a year ago. He jokingly described it as a letter to prevent people from having a “jammer” at the door when they get their real assessments in the new year. This week, the value of his home was confirmed when he got his official assessment, and he’s not thrilled. Volkow has been outspoken on the issue in recent

weeks, mostly over the concern of what an ever-increasing market will mean for younger people trying to get in on the action. He said he’s tired of hearing the real estate industry

refer to purchasing a home as the “biggest investment” someone will make. “You’re buying a home to establish a family, to establish yourself in the community,” he told the NOW.

“It’s a base for your life, it’s not an investment.The language in the conversation in the region has got to change. If we allow the real estate community and the development community

and the banking community define the conversation, well then, this madness is going to continue.” The Burnaby politician is calling on the federal and provincial government to

step in and deal with the issue, also arguing for what he described as an “onerous” speculation or vacancy tax. Volkow’s situation is not particularly unique. Continued on page 4

Could there be two new ice rinks in the works? By Jeremy Deutsch

jdeutsch@burnabynow.com

If you’re looking to lace up the skates and take to the ice on a city-owned rink in Burnaby, there are only three choices. But that

could soon change. Late last year, city council asked staff to look at the possibility of building more ice in the south slope of the city and authorized a feasibility study. Dave Ellenwood, Burna-

by’s director of parks, recreation and cultural services, explained the study is looking at several locations for a new facility in the city and also whether to build one rink or a twin rink. A couple of possible lo-

cations for the new facility include the Edmonds area and Bonsor Park, but he noted a final decision hasn’t been made. Ellenwood also said the city is still studying the demand for one or two rinks,

Newsnow MAKING A DIFFERENCE

Parents and families need a place to go Local teacher one of three moms behind campaign to raise funds for new, cutting-edge autism centre By Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

Autism was nothing new to Burnaby teacher Debbie Siu two years ago. With 13 years of teaching under her belt, the Gilmore Elementary School teacher had taught lots of kids with the disorder. That didn’t make it any easier when her son Cameron was diagnosed with the disorder at age three. “That day, I still remember it clearly,” Siu told the NOW. “It wasn’t that I was in shock, but it’s just hard to hear those words come out of the doctor’s mouth for the first time.” As a teacher in a supportive marriage with good friends, Siu said she had more support than many other parents she has spoken to since, but finding out a child has autism can be a lonely time. “As soon as you get the diagnosis, you’re just handed an envelope, and you’re kind of on your own,” she said. “You don’t know where to turn to for support and get the funding or extra activities for your child.” That experience has inspired Siu and two oth-

er parents of kids diagnosed with autism (Port Coquitlam residents Patricia James and Keri Kennett) to team up and make sure parents who come after them get all the support they need. Besides sharing their own stories to raise awareness, the trio will sell sterling silver puzzle-piece necklaces at 73 participating London Drugs stores in B.C. and Alberta for six weeks starting Jan. 8, with all proceeds going to the new Pacific Autism Family Centre that is currently being built in Richmond. The centre will be a onestop-shop for families of children with autism. “Parents and families need a place to go where all the resources will be under one roof,” Siu said. Getting support early is key for kids and their families, she said, and the first step – difficult as it may be – is getting a diagnosis. Unfortunately, many parents are reluctant to get their kids assessed, according to Siu. “I see it every single day with being in the school system – a parent’s in denial, afraid of getting the child la-

BUILDING SKILLS: Gilmore Elementary School teacher Debbie Siu watches her son Cameron play Lego at their Burnaby home.

PHOTO CORNELIA NAYLOR belled and what it’s going to look like for the rest of their life. But I can bring my own personal story into that,” she said. For one thing, a diagnosis brings with it $22,000 a year in funding until age six – at which time funding

drops to $6,000 a year. For Cameron, that has paid for behaviour intervention therapy sessions four days a week. They’ve made a world of difference, Siu said, helping Cameron deal with communication and other chal-

lenges. “He can wear boots now, which could never happen before. He will wear socks. For one year, he honestly didn’t wear a pair of socks,” she said. Difficult as it was two years ago to hear a doc-

tor tell her her son had autism, Siu said she and her students have also ultimately gained from her now-personal relationship with the disorder. “It’s made me a better person, I think, and a better teacher,” she said.

Phishing expedition fouls up district emails 150 Burnaby school staff email accounts hijacked By Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

If you had problems trying to get in touch with the Burnaby school district via email over the last couple months, you’re not alone. As many as 150 Burnaby school district staff email accounts were hijacked by scammers in November and December, according to district secretary-treasurer Greg Frank, wreaking havoc with the district’s online communication with the outside world. Frank said the staff email ac-

count holders fell prey to phishing scammers, who tricked them into revealing their passwords. The fraudsters then used the contact lists of the hijacked email accounts to perpetuate the trick, sending out as many as a thousand fake emails an hour from each hijacked account. “That gets flagged pretty quickly by the large service providers and email providers out there,” said school district information technology services manager Ken Kiewitz. Many of those providers promptly blocked the district, crippling the district’s online communication with parents and others outside the district system. “These things are always there as a nuisance; however, it became more than a nuisance for us

part way through November and through December,” Frank said. “People rely on that level of communication as an organization out to parents and others out there, so it became more than a nuisance. It was an operational problem for us.” Kiewitz said each of the compromised accounts was shut down within about an hour of being reported. To stop more staff from falling for the scam, Frank said the district launched a district-wide education program. “We’ve actually done presentation to all of our staff to make sure that they’re aware of this, that they are watching closely what attachments they’re opening, what information they’re providing,” he said. The district also started filter-

It was an operational problem for us ing external email in mid-December, only removing the filter early this week. “That was just in an effort to be able to be recognized as having addressed this issue by these large ISP (internet service providers) so that we could get back in their good books,” Kiewitz said. The scammers would have had access to email account content, like contact lists and emails between teachers and parents, according to Kiewitz, but the district isn’t worried about the privacy breach. “They’re not interested in those

pieces,” Kiewitz said. “Their only interest in the information is to try and present themselves to be as legitimate as possible to the end user.That way they can attempt to dupe a greater number of individuals by appearing to be more legitimate.” The goal of scammers who hijacked the district accounts in November and December isn’t clear, according to Kiewitz, but such fraudsters are usually after money – sometimes tricking account holders into sending wire transfers, sometimes taking over computers and demanding a ransom. Neither of those happened in Burnaby, according to Frank. “We don’t know if this is simply mischief; we don’t know if there was a bigger plan in behind it or not,” he said.

City now Nine properties in city worth more than $4M Continued from page 1 Thousands of property owners, especially those in single-family homes, are opening their 2016 property assessments to find huge increases in value. The average increase for a typical single-family home in Burnaby is between 15 to 25 per cent. But the number depends on where you live. According to B.C. Assessment, the value of a singlefamily home built in 1946 in the Capitol Hill area increased 23 per cent to $937,000. If you want to live in Burnaby’s Buckingham neighbourhood, prepare to shell out even more big bucks. A typical single-family home in the area built in 1971 jumped in value by 27 per cent to $1.86 million. Jason Grant, a regional assessor with B.C. Assessment, noted any single-family property within 30 minutes of Vancouver is seeing the strongest increase in

value. “If you went all the way back to 1980, you’d probably only find maybe two or three other times when the single-family market in Burnaby has moved by this much this quickly,” he said. Homeowners might also want to take note the as-

It’s been some time since I’ve seen a market move this strongly since July 1.

sessments are based on the value on July 1, and Grant pointed out the market has moved even further since. “It’s been some time since I’ve seen a market move this strongly since July 1,” he said. “Chances are if you were

looking at the latest sale on your street today as you’re opening up your assessment notice, it could be significantly higher than it was back in July when we were valuing your property.” Multi-family strata residential increases are in the five to 10 per cent range for 2016. A typical highrise unit in Metrotown built in 1992 is worth about $511,000, up six per cent. But if you dare to dream and want to own the most valuable residential property in Burnaby, you’ll probably have to keep dreaming, or win the lottery. The most valuable address in the city is located at 7629 Burris St. at a cool $10.5 million. Second on the list is an acreage at 7868 Government Rd. worth $6.3 million. It turns out, nine of the top 10 most valuable properties are worth more than $4 million.

Does the Virto V Replace Traditional Hearing Aids? Whether at work, during conversations in small groups or when watching television, one in six adults experience problems when it comes to accurate speech comprehension and hearing in everyday situations. Although background noise and music can impair communication with friends and family, two thirds of those affected still do not use any hearing aids.

For some clients, the smaller design of the Virto V hearing aids might possibly replace the more traditional behind-the-ear hearing aids, and like many of our other products, these hearing aids can easily connect wirelessly with TVs and smartphones,” explains Prof. Stefan Launer, CSO of the Swiss manufacturer Phonak. See how the virtually invisible Vitro V fits into your daily routine.

There are many reasons for this but for most people it’s that they are not convinced that hearing aids will significantly benefit them or it’s the unease they feel about attracting attention by wearing a visible hearing aid.

Virtual function of the ear

This is why the Swiss manufacturer Phonak has developed a world first: Virto V. These hearing aids are manufactured using a modern 3D printing process that provides a custom-fit miniature hearing aid that disappears into the ear canal, making it almost invisible to others. Despite its small size, the latest and most advanced Phonak hearing technology is still contained in the casing.

“Thanks to a new operating system, these new hearing aids can provide a virtual alternative for natural hearing, as experienced by people with normal hearing. Through intelligent control, the software can improve speech understanding, even in loud situations and by utilizing the 3D printing process, these hearing aids fit the natural anatomy of the ear as closely as possible making them truly a custom-fit solution.

Prof. Stefan Launer, CSO of Swiss If you are interested in finding out more manufacturer Phonak, presents about these new hearing aids, the first step is to book hearing evaluation and the new Virto V hearing aids. determine if the new Virto V technology is the right solution for you. For those who are hard of hearing, this can be particularly useful for finding out whether it is possible to hear and understand more clearly with discreet in-the-canal hearing solutions.

Opinion now OUR VIEW

Just who owns those emails, anyhow? The premier has accepted the lengthy list of recommendations aimed at firming up government transparency in the wake of the “triple-delete” email scandal – as if these were things that should have to be spelled out to begin with. Somehow, we’ve allowed our politicians and bureaucrats to get into the misunderstanding that those emails were theirs to begin with. In the private sector, most everyone knows and

accepts that their employer may read their work-related emails.We are Christy Clark and her staff’s employers, and we’re entitled to have a look. Among the recommendations: banning the triple-deletion of emails from government servers, creating penalties for anyone who destroys government info and forcing government to make a written record of major decisions. The thought of punish-

ment for deleting public information is nice, but we say prevention is better than a remedy. A far better system would be one that removes completely the ability to delete emails from politicians and their staff. This comes as the executive director of the B.C. Liberal Party has stepped down to face criminal charges in Ontario for allegedly arranging the deletion of sensitive emails related to their ongo-

ing gas plant scandal. Even if we do get new legislation, sadly, we don’t expect the stick-handling to change. The constant game of “catch me if you can” has become a matter of routine for governments and publicly owned corporations. It almost seems at times that politicians have decided to just take their chances on being caught hiding information.What’s the worst that can happen? – they may ponder as they delete and

shred material that could make them look bad. Sadly, the odds are on their side. The media has fewer resources to muster in filing access to information requests, and the average voter seems to have short memories where government foulups are concerned. The provincial Liberals are not alone, however. This severe allergy to transparency and accountability is something all levels of government across Canada

have developed. There remains a motivation to stay one step ahead. While Stephen Harper’s Conservatives were the standard bearers for deception, others simply can’t resist trying. We hate to pin our hopes on Justin Trudeau, but his initial committment to transparency and openness may be the best news we’ve heard from government in a long time. Let’s hope it sticks.

Pipeline project beneﬁts Burnaby

On Dec. 17, Kinder Morgan Canada stood before the National Energy Board to present our case for the multibillion-dollar expansion of the Trans Mountain Pipeline system. It’s a pivotal milestone for our team and represents years of planning, scientific studies and meaningful consultation. The scrutiny and rigour this project has undergone, both inside and outside of the formal review process, is unprecedented.The input and feedback we’ve gathered has created a stronger, safer and more responsive project. Safety is the cornerstone of everything we do, and our team has carefully developed measures to protect the health of our workers, communities and ecosystems. And 89 per cent of the proposed pipeline expansion parallels existing pipeline or utility infrastructure, minimizing community impacts. One of the exciting things about leading an infrastructure project of this magnitude is talking about the direct and lasting economic benefits it would create for communities along the pipeline corridor and all Canadians.The expansion will create more than 123,000 person-years of employment through construction and operation of the pipeline. The project will also create a long-term legacy of tax revenues to support vital government services that we all rely on. During construction and the first 20 years of operation, it will generate

an additional $28.2 billion in taxes and royalties, and an additional $26.6 million in annual property taxes for local governments and reserves – that’s more than double the current amount. The project is anticipated to require approximately $4.5 billion in goods and services, and it will result in an estimated $480 million in direct construction workforce spending, such as meals, hotels and vehicle expenses, in communities along the route. New opportunities will flow into sectors such as transportation, manufacturing, engineering, legal, accounting, retail and hospitality. Local communities and aboriginal groups will also benefit from the agreements that we’ve signed to provide funding for educational, environmental and infrastructure projects. Burnaby residents will see significant benefits as a result of the expansion. If approved, the city will collect an additional $6.2 million in taxes, bringing the total to over $13 million annually.

Tree offer snubbed Burnaby Mayor Bill Lewarne was disappointed Douglas firs from Central Park wouldn’t be used as the new mainmast and foremast of the Bluenose II, a replica of the famous sailing ship.The mayor had offered the trees to the Bluenose Restoration Society in Nova Scotia for free because Central Park had once been an admiralty park, supplying tall, straight trees for schooner masts.The society opted to buy logs from Vancouver Island instead.

IsTrudeau a socialist or just a human being?

Is climate change bolstering number of hummingbirds?

Dear Editor I had a dream the other night, and as the dream unfurled, Mr. Obama spoke on TV with a message for the world. He said that he believed that property was not something that should only be owned by individuals. Now, it might well be that Mr. Obama does believe that, but for him to express it eloquently on TV? The Tea Partiers would have a fit, and then they would grab their guns. The concepts of public ownership of property, or state ownership, are not the same thing as sharing among individuals, but if sharing among individuals is scaled up to the level of communities or nation-states, then the concepts become equivalent. Human beings share things. It’s an essential aspect of our species, and the science of evolution tells us why. All my socialist friends are already tearing into the Justin Trudeau Liberals, and they have a lot of evidence to support their position. But there is other evidence. A cabinet of 50 per cent women? This is a first for Canada. Implementing proportional representation when first past the post gave the Liberals a majority? Unheard of. Inviting all the premiers and opposition party leaders to the Paris climate change conference? A marvel. We cannot know yet what the Justin Trudeau Liberals will actually do, but it’s starting to look as though they will fulfil their election promises. I reserve my judgment. History will judge them. I don’t know whether Justin Trudeau is opposed to the concept of private property. I doubt that he is a socialist, but it seems clear that he does believe in sharing: information, political power, responsibility; those we already know about. Justin Trudeau does not need to be a socialist. However, if he believes in sharing, then he is a human being, and that’s good enough for me. Victor Finberg, Burnaby

Pipeline is the ‘right project’ for Canada Continued from page 6 Columbians place on the environment, and as part of the expansion, we have proposed additional measures to further enhance our industry-leading safety regime. This includes a $100-million investment inWestern Canada Marine Response Corporation to double response capabilities for the tanker route, create five new response bases, cut mandated response times in half and create up to 100 new jobs. The world has changed since the original Trans Mountain Pipeline was built in 1953. We need an expanded pipeline system that will provide access to new, highpaying markets. But communities can take comfort knowing it will be done safely while balancing social and environmental interests, addressing concerns raised by the public and unlocking billions of dollars in benefit to our country.Today, we are more confident than ever that this is the right project, at the right time, for Canada. Ian Anderson is the president of Kinder Morgan Canada.

Karen Staerk We live in Burnaby South and have been visited by a hummingbird often just the last week or 2. Not sure of the color as I don’t want to scare it and go outside. It comes to our balcony as I still have a red Geranium plant outside and it goes to the flowers. Sharon Oke We have had a pair, and lately a family of hummingbirds in our back yard for the past several years. When we had the freezing cold last week, I was bringing in one of their feeders each evening to keep it thawed for the morning. When I took it back out at 8 am, They were in my maple tree chatting at me and thanking me for the thawed food. Wonderful to enjoy. Tina Ricci Combatti This is my little guy that feeds off our feeder catching the rays on our window sill he’s not even scared of me, so cute mememine This garbage-criminal level exaggeration from you lazy copy and paste news editors is shameful! Liberalism’s criminal abuse of vague climate science will be judged by the children you eager “believers” condemn to a CO2 HE!! and by history itself! *Occupy no longer mentions CO2 in it’s list of demand so be real progressives and get up to date doomers. If it’s really a CO2 END OF DAYS then why isn’t science allowed to end this costly debate to save the planet and say it’s as real as they say smoking causing cancer is? 35 MORE years of climate action delay and debate is certain and unstoppable.

Local youth charged in New West robberies Cayley Dobie

cdobie@burnabynow.com

A group of local youth are facing several charges following a spree of robberies that came to an end in New Westminster last week. New Westminster police arrested Burnaby resident Abdi Bulle and a teenage girl, whose names cannot be released as outlined in the Youth Criminal Justice Act, near Moody Park, located at Eighth Street and Eighth Avenue, at about 4:30 a.m. on Jan. 1. Police say the two were fleeing the scene of a personal robbery at the PetroCanada gas station at 10th Avenue and Canada Way, when they came across a

group of people in Moody Park and attempted to steal a phone from one of them. When the suspects failed to steal the phone, they fled on foot and were promptly picked up by patrol officers. The minor was released on several conditions, while Bulle remains in custody. Both suspects are charged with two counts of robbery for the alleged incident in New Westminster and one count of robbery for the Burnaby incident.The minor was also charged with assault. But these charges aren’t the only ones Bulle is facing. According to online court records, Bulle is one of three Burnaby youths charged in another alleged robbery –

this one happened on Dec. 11, 2015 in the Edmonds neighbourhood. Burnaby RCMP confirmed that 18-year-old Bulle, along with Ahmed AlLami, 18, andYuhana Mayich Kuch, 22, are all facing charges stemming from the alleged robbery, which Mounties believe was part of a series of robberies in the Edmonds-Kingsway area that took place between Oct. 1 and Nov. 30 of last year.The trio is charged with two counts of robbery and one count of possessing a weapon for dangerous purposes. The group is scheduled to appear in court on Jan. 20 in Vancouver.

Minor hockey association is ‘maxed out’ for space Continued from page 1 has been significant growth in the South Slope area. “We know the demand is there now and we know there’s going to be future demand,” he said, adding the city wants to provide for more adult groups, lessons and public skating. The cost for a new twin rink would be between $15 and $25 million, with the funds coming from the city’s density bonus program. There are currently three city-owned rinks in Burnaby: Bill Copeland Sports Centre, Burnaby Lake Arena and Kensington Arena. Ellenwood said there isn’t a specific timeline when the study will be complete and in front of council for a decision, but the intent is sometime in 2016.

And new ice couldn’t come fast enough for the Burnaby Minor Hockey Association. Larry Hayes is the executive administrator of the local association and said a new rink is a long time coming, and he’s not too picky where the facility is located. He said the minor hockey association is “maxed out” in terms of accommodating the number of players and offering reasonable ice times to entice new members. Hayes said everyone wants the prime ice times, but it’s difficult to provide with just three rinks. He also noted there has been an increase in the demand not just for game time, but ice time for skill development as well as a growing interest by kids and families from non-tradition-

al hockey countries. “More ice means more possibilities that we can provide that for a greater chunk of the population,” Hayes said. “It’s been pretty tough with the ice that we have right now. It would be nice to have a little more options available.” While the minor hockey association eagerly awaits the plans to move forward, the city is also conducting a second study to determine the future of the Burnaby Lake Arena as part of the CG Brown Pool redevelopment. Ellenwood said the city is also looking at fixing up the arena, but the municipality doesn’t want to take it out of commission until a new rink is in place.

Mayor applauds move to scrap garbage plans Burnaby’s mayor is applauding a move by Metro Vancouver to scrap a plan to build an incinerator outside of the region. Last month, the regional district announced it was discontinuing its current waste-to-energy (WTE) procurement process due to uncertainty around future waste volumes and continued reduction in residual waste. Mayor Derek Corrigan said he was not disappointed by the decision. “As I said from the beginning, it was a convoluted process that really didn’t answer the needs of the region,” he told the NOW. “It was a political compromise that was made because the provincial government wouldn’t approve the solid waste plan unless the options for a waste-to-energy facility included options outside the Lower Mainland.That made it extremely difficult.” Corrigan also suggested the idea of barging garbage

miles away is “ludicrous.” However, he also argued at some point MetroVancouver will have to do something with the issue, arguing the need for another incinerator and the lack of capacity in the region to handle the garbage. Corrigan added continuing to send garbage to a landfill is much less sustainable than waste-to-energy.

Everybody knows this is the best solution “Everybody knows this is the best solution (to dispose of residual garbage),” he said. It also looks like the decision by MetroVancouver is a boon to the localWTE facility in Burnaby. Metro Vancouver said it has invested in enhancements to the Burnaby facility, noting in the next five years, an additional $30 million will be invested in capacity, technology and further emissions

control upgrades. “MetroVancouver remains committed to wasteto-energy as the most sustainable technology solution for deriving benefits from residual waste after all efforts to reduce, reuse and recycle,” said Greg Moore, chair of MetroVancouver, in a statement. “Given our collective achievement in recycling and waste reduction, the timeline for requiring additional capacity has been pushed forward by several years, enabling us to scaleup over time based on a growing population and predictable waste volumes.” The Burnaby incinerator has been burning garbage since 1988. For the first seven years, the nitrogen dioxide levels were above the regulatory standards, but they dropped in 1996 and have remained at lower levels ever since. Emissions for sulphur dioxide, carbon monoxide, particulate matter, dioxins and furans have all been below regulatory levels since the incinerator was built, according to a MetroVancouver report from 2014.

Operation Red Nose a success Despite a slight decrease in use, this year’s Operation Red Nose campaign is being hailed as success by organizers. Throughout the month long campaign, the holiday service provided a total of 934 rides in Burnaby, NewWestminster and the Tri-Cities.The organization also raised $31,490 in donation at an average of $33.72

per ride. In Burnaby and New Westminster, the service provided 285 rides during the campaign and raised more than $9,000 in donations between the two communities. While 2015 fell short of the previous year’s totals, coordinator ChrisWilson was still pleased with the overall campaign.

“It’s still extremely popular, extremely relevant and the clients that we drive are super appreciative,” he told the NOW. Operation Red Nose uses a team of volunteers to drive people and their cars home, for a donation.The money goes toward KidSport and gets divided by the rides in each community. – Jeremy Deutsch

News now Kinder Morgan ﬁnishes up tree planting

Greenery: Kinder Morgan spokesperson Ali Hounsell on Burnaby Mountain following the company’s remediation work.

New cedar, maple, spruce and fir are now growing in an area that had been cleared for soil testing Jennifer Moreau

jmoreau@burnabynow.com

Kinder Morgan has finished remediation work on Burnaby Mountain following last fall’s survey work and mass protests. The company hired a First Nations contractor to plant more than 350 trees in early December, mostly at the clearing in the woods, where the company drilled to test the soil for a new pipeline route. The clearing, which was filled with protesters and police last November, is now full of cedar, maple, spruce and two types of fir. The company brought the trees in by helicopter to avoid trampling the area. Kinder Morgan spokesperson Ali Hounsell said the

project cost about $50,000 and took a couple of weeks. The remediation crew installed three sections of cedar boardwalk along one of the trails leading up to the site.They also erected fences, planted trees and used branches and logs to block some of the unofficial side trails leading to the bore hole site. Last fall, Kinder Morgan cut several trees in the conservation area (the city says 13 trees, while the company says seven), which contravened the city’s parks bylaw. The National Energy Board backed Kinder Morgan’s survey work, which led to an ongoing legal battle with the city that will likely end up in the Supreme Court of Canada.

Communitynow CHRISTMAS BIRD COUNT

Warmer winters: The numbers of Anna’s hummingbirds spotted in Burnaby during the Christmas Bird Count are on the rise, possibly due to climate change. The tiny birds are non-migratory, meaning they stay put for the winter, and the numbers spotted locally are rising, year after year. PHOTO CONTRIBUTED BILL MURDOCK

Is climate change helping hummingbirds? By Jennifer Moreau

jmoreau@burnabynow.com

The proliferation of a tiny, ruby-hooded hummingbird in Burnaby is likely a reflection of climate change, according to a local expert leading the Christmas Bird Count.

The annual census of winter birds noted a rise in recorded sightings for Anna’s hummingbird, and it’s a trend that’s held steady for the past several years. “The progress in numbers here is a real indication on how they are becoming progressively more abun-

dant,” said George Clulow, an avid birder who’s been organizing the count since the 1980s. “One of the things we believe about them is they are benefitting from climate change in terms of their numbers. They are reproducing, and more and more are surviv-

What we’re seeing here is reﬂected throughout the region.

ing, because the climate is better for them.” Anna’s hummingbirds are about 10 centimetres long, and unlike other hummingbirds, they are non-migratory.The first sighting in Burnaby was in 2008. Since then, the numbers have steadily increased, from sin-

gle digits to 16 this year. In past years, Clulow relied on sighting reports from people who have hummingbird feeders, but now volunteers are spotting the species in the field. Clulow attributed their abundance to warmer winters.

Communitynow Count showed record number of bird species

Continued from page 11 “What we’re seeing here is reflected throughout the region.The whole Metro Vancouver is experiencing this boom in the numbers; it’s not just Burnaby,” he said. This year’s Christmas Bird Count took place on

Sunday, Dec. 20 in Burnaby.Volunteers saw a record number of species: 72 in total, while 60 is the norm. Clulow said there was an interesting mix of birds from different regions: some from the north, some from the mountains, and others that had not yet flown south.

Feathered friends: Right, pine grosbeaks have been spotted on Burnaby Mountain. Below, George Clulow, at left, leads the local Christmas Bird Count. PHOTO JENNIFER GAUTHIER

Highlights There were three new or rare species this year: the redhead duck, the pine grosbeak and the Lincoln’s sparrow. The redhead duck has a ruddy feathered head, like the name suggests, and there was only one spotted at Deer Lake; it should be easy to find from the boardwalk on the north side of the lake, towards the west. There are about 20 pine grosbeaks on Burnaby Mountain. Just look for the rosy finches around Horizon’s Restaurant. Lincoln’s sparrow, which Clulow describes as a “dapper little sparrow,” hasn’t been seen in these parts since 2001. Roughly 7,000 crows were counted at the Still Creek roost, down from 2010 but stable since then. Counting crows is an imprecise exercise, so this year’s count is conservative. Bird Studies Canada publishes national results for the counts once all the data is collected. Visit www. bsc-eoc.org for details.

The artists are featured in a new Moved by Portraits exhibition opening at Deer Lake Gallery next weekend. PHOTOS CONTRIBUTED

The art of portraiture Deer Lake Gallery is ushering in the new year with an exhibition of portraiture. Moved by Portraits is a group exhibition featuring the work ofYue Baoyu, Bill Edmonds, Jeremy Henrickson and Louise Solecki Weir, running Jan. 16 to Feb. 6 at the Burnaby Arts Council’s gallery. “Moved by Portraits seeks to invigorate a well-known artistic form with new energy: the portrait,” a press release says. The work in the show is varied. Solecki Weir, an artist and

art therapist, is the vicepresident of the Sculptors Society of B.C. and will be showing work in clay. Edmonds’ work explores anonymity and the Internet, looking at what is known as a “catfish” – that is, someone who constructs a false identity over the Internet by sending false images and information. Henrickson, meanwhile, combines elements from many mediums – watercolour, acrylic, inks, oils and collage – to create contemporary work that explores themes of expression, perso-

na and sense of life. Baoyu, who moved to Canada from China in 2001, has developed a practice that specializes in realistic paintings of portraits and figures.

Gran Coupe

BY DAVID CHAO

Stylish & Practical

Keeping the style and prestige of the standard coupe, the BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe adds some appreciated practicality. Not long ago, BMW re-arranged its model range and the number naming system. Traditional sedans now all have an odd number to start its name, while coupes are distinguished by even numbers. This was simple enough, until some marketing folks at BMW decided that some models can “crossover” the two territories – thus was born the so called 4-door coupes or “Gran Coupe.” It ﬁrst started with the 6 Series and now the Gran Coupe concept has reached the lower tier 4 Series with the same striking design philosophy. Since this niche is so small, direct rivals are few and far between. Mercedes-Benz is one of the strongest supporters of these 4-door coupes, such as its CLA models. The closest from BMW’s life-long rival Audi is the A5, and Jaguar has the XF.

Design

The 4 Series Gran Coupe retains the sleek look of the standard coupe, but adds two rear doors. Sharing the exact some footprint as the 2-door coupe, the roof of the Gran Coupe is 12 mm higher and 112 mm longer. At the front, the 4 Series’ exterior looks similar to its 3 Series sibling. This generation’s styling is evolutionary with the headlights now ﬂowing into the double kidney grille. What separates the 4 Series from the rest of the BMW range is the air breathers behind the front wheels. The rooﬂine extends much further back than it does on the standard 3 Series sedan and instead of a traditional trunk, the 4 Series Gran Coupe has a hatchback design. At the rear, the 4 Series Gran Coupe takes its inspiration from the larger 6 Series Gran Coupe. The major advantage to the 4-door coupe design over the standard 4 Series 2-door coupe is the much

improved rear seat access. Frameless doors give the 4 Series an elegant feel as well.

As mentioned, accessing the rear seat is made easier in Gran Coupe models versus the standard 2-door trim, thanks to those two additional doors. Also, cargo space gets a bump, offering over 45 cubic feet with the 40:20:40 split-folding rear seats down. Also, the hatchbackstyle lid and large opening makes loading bigger items easier.

Also, the 4 Series Gran Coupe has a more airy feel to its interior than the standard model. BMW describes it as a 4+1 seater, and the cabin is as functional and comfortable as other BMWs.

Performance

For this year, the 4 Series Gran Coupe is available with two different engines. Both are familiar to those who know BMW. The base model, the 428i, is powered by a 2.0-litre turbocharged inline-4. Output is rated at 241 hp and 258 lbft of torque which is surprisingly strong during acceleration. Those wanting more can look at the 435i Gran Coupe, which is equipped with a 300 hp and 300 lb-ft 3.0-litre turbocharged inline-6. This turns the car into a true sports coupe. Both engines use BMW’s TwinPower Turbo technology; this is a clever solution that boosts power output while also reducing fuel consumption.

BMW has traditionally shaped the cabin around the driver, and that doesn’t change in the 4 Series Gran Coupe. Important controls are within easy reach and BMW’s iDrive control system continues to improve and get simpler. A 6.5-inch, free-standing colour screen is standard and runs the infotainment system. It is slightly angled towards the driver, and when combined with the optional head-up display, quickly provides important details and keeps the driver’s eyes on the road. To make the 4 Series Gran Coupe even more practical, the trunk is equipped with a standard auto opening and closing. However, if you want maximum convenience, the optional Smart Opener feature allows you to operate the hatch with your foot (just swing your foot to open the rear hatch).

Translating that power to the wheels is an 8-speed automatic transmission. However, a Sport Automatic is available and adds paddle shifters to the steering wheel and a Sport+ mode that further enhances the character.

The 4 Series Gran Coupe is available in four trim levels with starting prices ranging from $44,900 to $55,600.

Currently, both 4 Series Gran Coupes models can be outﬁtted as either rear-wheel drive or with BMW’s xDrive intelligent all-wheel drive technology. That may change in the future, however, as BMW is making more of its models standard with AWD in Canada.

Standard equipment includes auto climate control, heated front seats, heated rear seats, auto dimming interior mirror, rain-sensing wipers, auto headlights, dynamic cruise control, auto start/stop, and a glass sunroof.

The 4 Series Gran Coupe excels as a grand tourer. Its road manners are lively yet smooth, and the extra cargo capacity means you can bring all your necessary luggage and equipment without losing the “style”. The handling is excellent, although the steering feels a bit numb which is something that is happening with a number of BMWs due to the electric steering mechanism.

Additional features, available as options or on higher trims, include a heated steering wheel, auto dimming exterior mirrors, adaptive suspension, blind spot detection, lane departure and collision warning, adaptive LED headlights, park assistant, a rearview camera, a navigation system, and on-board internet.

Environment

The 4 Series Gran Coupe is designed to accommodate four passengers quite comfortably. Material quality is up to the standard everyone has come to expect from BMWs. Those riding up front will be comfortable, and two in the rear seats will ﬁnd plenty of legroom. The middle seat is best left for children as it’s tight to say the least.

Features

Fuel efﬁciency numbers (L/100km) for the 428i are 10.9 city, 6.8 highway and 9.0 combined. The 435i returns 11.4 city, 7.4 highway and 9.6 combined.

Thumbs Up

The Gran Coupe is just as stylish as the standard 2-door version, but it boasts more practical space. The ride is smooth and the driving character top-notch.

Thumbs Down

While the 4 Series Gran Coupe has advantages over the base model, it also costs more without providing a lot of features over the base models.

The Bottom Line

If you want the style and exclusivity of a coupe, but need the practicality of a sedan, the 4 Series Gran Coupe can’t be beaten.

MUSLIM ART EXHIBITION A Burnaby resident is curating a new exhibition at the Newton Cultural Centre in Surrey. Taslim Samji, an artist and curator who lives in Burnaby, is the curator for an Ismaili Muslim art exhibition featuring the works of eight female artists. All eight artists have roots in East Africa. “When we explore the ideas and influences shared by the group, we find that these themes are also explored by artists of other Canadian cultural communities,” Samji said in a press release. “The further we explore pluralism, the more commonality there is to be found that transcends cultural differences.” The show is on from Jan. 15 to 30 at the Newton Cultural Centre, 13530 72nd Ave. in Surrey. An opening reception is set for Saturday, Jan. 16 from 1 to 3 p.m. For more about the show, check out www.artscouncil

Tips for bay trees, ﬁghting fungus gnats Anne Marrison GREEN SCENE

editorial@burnabynow.com

Question: Last year I bought potted herbs and repotted them in larger containers under a heat light.They were successful, but I was plagued by fruit flies to the point I gave up. I used milk and vinegar/soap solutions but to no avail. I want to give it another shot, and any help you can give me regarding soil and fly protection would be appreciated. Bob, Burnaby Answer: These flies are similar to fruit flies, but when they come from potted plants they are fungus gnats.The type of soil is no problem, but the moisture content is. Fungus gnats live and breed in moist soil. In dryer soil, they don’t breed and so die out. The best solution I’ve found is spreading about a third to half-an-inch (1 centimetre) deep layer of sand over the surface of the potting mix where the plants are growing.Then let the soil dry out just a little before watering again.

Some people deal with fungus gnats by watering from the bottom and a few hours later dumping the water and waiting a few days before watering again. Another alternative is a dusting cinnamon powder over the soil surface – changing one’s cultural practices is always easier than buying or mixing potions and disposing of bodies. Many of the Mediterranean herbs prefer soil that dries out periodically because well-drained soil and periodic droughts are the type of situation they’re used to in the lands where they originate. Rosemary, thyme, sage and oregano are all Mediterranean herbs. Parsley does best in fertile soil but can handle dryness because it has a taproot where it can store food and moisture. Chives have storage in their bulbs. Mint does better in moist soil but prefers to be outside if you can manage it. Fungus gnats don’t survive long outside, because pests of all kind are a free lunch for birds. Question: My bay tree was damaged

by cold temperatures last winter when I left it outside. I usually put it into my tool shed. Do you know the hardiness of this plant for our wet, cold winters? Judith MacDonald, Vancouver Answer: Your bay tree is a Mediterranean native. It’s a zone 8 tree reputed to be hardy to 5F (15C) – but this is in perfect conditions: warm south wall, excellent drainage. This means that on the Gulf Islands, on Vancouver Island and on very sheltered south slopes and in Vancouver areas close to the sea, garden-planted bay trees usually survive. But even there, they’re always susceptible to colderthan-normal temperatures or unusually chilly winds especially when cold combines with wet. So in our present climate their winter survival outside is always a gamble. Since you put your bay tree in a shed overnight during winter, it’s probably in a container. Container plants need to be one zone hardier than those planted in gardens where their roots are sheltered in earth.

Pesky pest: Fungus gnats like moist conditions, so keep your plants dry to stop them from proliferating. PHOTO THINKSTOCK

Whenever temperatures dip below freezing, your bay tree should be in your shed day and night – hopefully by a window. Don’t be surprised if it

defoliates.This is a response to sudden, stressful changes. Lemon trees do the same thing. Bay trees almost invariably leaf out again in spring.

The Residences at Lynn Valley

orth Vancouver’s Lynn Valley is coming into its own and in the epicentre of this extensive renaissance is The Residences at Lynn Valley by Bosa Development. At the gateway to the Trans Canada Trail system – with more than 400 individual hiking, walking and cycling trails – The Residences is minutes away from the best of Mother Nature’s playground. “Lynn Valley’s amazing natural setting and strong community spirit are what inspired our vision for The Residences,” says Nat Bosa, visionary founder and president of Bosa Development. “Homes are at sky level, with oversized windows and large balconies looking out to stunning mountain and valley views. The Residences celebrate a way of life that we feel honoured to bring to this community.” Designed by the award-winning Chris Dikeakos Architects, when complete, this master-planned community will feature six concrete Whistler-inspired

buildings, ranging from four to 12 storeys encompassing 350 homes, a fully renovated Lynn Valley Centre Mall and new retail space in addition to the new public gathering spaces featuring stunning public art. There’s a sense of community that permeates the neighbourhood culture that Lynn Valley is known for. In addition, the rustic timbers and steeply pitched rooflines pay homage to the surrounding landscape, while a rooftop garden and an array of outdoor amenities embrace the Lynn Valley lifestyle. Inside, the surrounding elements of nature blur the line between interior and outdoor. Each home features wide-plank engineered hardwood floors in a palette of earth tones, generous ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows and air conditioning – providing touches to enhance comfort. The first phase of The Residences consists of two beautiful boutique-style buildings with the most expansive outdoor spaces and highest

ceilings in the development and features exclusive homes including one-, two- and three-bedroom homes ranging from 511 to 2,285 square feet, many with dens or flex spaces. “The Residences are understated yet sophisticated, cozy yet clean,” says Cristina Oberti of Cristina Oberti Interior Design Inc. “One feels a sense of comfort and of inviting space, but finer details, such as the high-end appliances, wood and stone and porcelain tile finishes work to give the spaces a very luxurious and resort-like feel.” The epicurean centre of the home is highlighted by Italian cabinetry, a premium integrated Bosch appliance package, including a gas cooktop, high end quartz countertops with waterfall edges and a solid slab backsplash. The Zen-inspired ensuite bathrooms are showcased by porcelain tile on the floor and walls and the imported Italian cabinets add a touch of warmth to the otherwise serene and

very soft bathroom setting. In addition, there are oversized balconies, triple-glazed windows for superior soundproofing, air-conditioning and two elevators in each building to get residents in and out fast. “It’s not just a place to live and work, but a place of refuge where you want to escape to and relax,” adds Oberti. This is an exciting opportunity to buy a magnificent home in a sought-after neighbourhood in a premium location, built by a developer with a stellar track record for quality and integrity spanning more than three decades. At The Residences at Lynn Valley, every detail has been carefully planned to offer superiority and refined living spaces.

Daniels, Tardi tops in junior curling

Burnaby’sWenzek wins in junior boys championship final Dan Olson

dolson@burnabynow.com

The score said it all. The Royal City Curling Club’s Sarah Daniels rink is the 2016 Tim Hortons B.C. Junior Women’s curling champion, after toppling last year’s champs in an 11-3 win in Kamloops. The RCCC rink, which includes Daniels, third Marika Van Osch, second Dezaray Hawes and lead Megan Daniels, erased a 1-0 deficit with a barrage of points midway through the final to upset the undefeated hometown rink of Corryn Brown. “It was very exciting.We knew it would be a tough game so we just wanted to focus on the process, to do what we can to play our best and it all worked out,” said Hawes. “There definitely was some history between our two teams so we knew what we had to do, and that was just play our game.” That history included a pair of losses to the Brown rink earlier in the week: an 8-3 setback in round robin play and 11-7 in the quarterfinals.That last defeat, which saw Brown rally with five points in the 10th end for the win, proved to be vital experience that came in handy in the end. In the final showdown, Brown opened with a 1-0 lead after the first end and held it until the fourth when the Daniels rink cashed in five and stole one in the fifth to build a comfortable 6-1 lead.They’d pad the lead with two in the seventh. Hawes said the challenges during the draw only prepared them for the pressure of the final. “Mental toughness has been one of our big goals, to improve on,” she said. “I think there are always little hurdles you face but we stayed focused on our gameplan and carried it through.” The Daniels rink, co-coached by Ernie Daniels and Katie Witt, won its first four games convincingly before crossing paths with Brown in an 8-3 round-robin loss.They rebounded nicely with a convincing 12-4 victory over the Locken rink, then edged Coulombe 7-6 with single points scored in the ninth and 10th ends to come from behind. That put them on a collision course with Brown in the quarterfinals. Dusting themselves off Continued on page 36

Burnaby makes pre-draft splash Lakers add one sniper and the first pick overall in next month’sWLA junior draft Dan Olson

dolson@burnabynow.com

It took some doing, but the Burnaby Lakers have put themselves in the catbird seat. Vying to join the Western Lacrosse Association’s upper echelon, the Lakers wheeled and dealed themselves into a position of strength by parcelling up Casey Jackson and a handful of draft picks to acquire Eli McLaughlin and the No. 1 selection in next month’s junior draft. After last year’s disappointing playoff miss -- finishing fifth overall in a three-way tie for third place -the Lakers were itching to add an impact player. With two of the top-three ranked graduating juniors of the transition variety, Burnaby decided to shoot for the moon and shipped their third overall pick, both their second and third round choices, a third in 2017 and Jackson to Nanaimo for the top pick in the Feb. 10 draft. The top offensive-skilled player available is Josh Byrne, a New Westminster junior who counted 118 goals in 43 junior games. “He certainly is being touted as the best player, offensively, in this year’s group,” remarked Burnaby president Ed Safarik. “(Lakers management and scouts) are still

that next step.” Joining Byrne among the most coveted are Coquitlam grads Michael Messenger and Challen Rogers and Langley’s James Rahe. Richardson isn’t tipping his hand, but feels the club will do well with the second choice. “(Byrne) played well for us in the playoffs, he’s a New West guy and there’s no doubt he’s someone we’d love to have. But Messenger, Rahe and Rogers are all impact players too and our scouts and I think any of the four would be great additions.” Safarik likes the foundation the team has built over the past handful of years, led by veterans Dane Stevens, Jason and Scott Jones, and all-star Robert Church. It’s a core that, if intact, should put them in the race for second place at least.That’s what made last year’s finish so frustrating, he said. “Three of us were equal and (second-place New West) was right there, too,” said Safarik. “There wasn’t much space between us. A lot of things went wrong and you can blame some external facts but if we had played a little more head’s up and just won one of those last two games we’d have been (in the playoffs).” — follow us at @thenowsports

Clan grapplers in good

The Simon Fraser University women’s wrestling team sure know how to kick-off a new year. The women Clan collected five of nine weight class titles at the Menlo Open in Calif. to begin 2016 on a strong note. Darbie Huckle, Abby Lloyd, Dominque Parrish, Francesca Giorgio and Payten Smith each prevailed in their respective weight classes, as SFU took top spot among the five competing teams with 117 points, 37.5 points up on second-place Menlo College. Giorgio, in the 143-pound class, and Huckle, rated No. 2 in Women’s Collegiate Wrestling Association (WCWA) in the 101-pound division, won two matches each. Lloyd, No. 2 in 109-pounds, jumped up a weight class and won all four matches, including topping last year’s WCWA runnerup in 116-pound division.

Parrish also racked up four consecutive decisions, all by technical fall, to claim the 123-pound title. In the 191-pound class, Smith beat five opponents by falls, needing less than two minutes on three occasions. Her longest match lasted 2:48 before ending in a win. Freshman Kendall Reusing ended up second to Smith, while Jen Anderson, in 116-pound, and Mallory Velte, at 155-pounds, came in third. St.Thomas More alumna and Burnaby native Nicole Depa posted a 4-1 record in the 130-pound division on behalf of the Burnaby Mountain Wrestling Club. She defeated fellow BMWC clubmate Aliocha Perriard by a 6-0 decision in the third-place contest. Another teammate, Ciara McCrae, completed her 116-pound run with a 2-2 record, with both her wins coming by fall.

Continued from page 35 after the 11-7 defeat, Daniels reclaimed its confidence with a 9-4 semifinal decision over Loken, and a berth to the final. In that last game, the Royal City foursome were true on 86 per cent of their shots, while Brown finished at 67 per cent. Leading the way was Hawes, who was successful on a magical 96 per cent of her shots. Team Daniels will travel to Stratford, Ont. Jan. 23 to 31 for the 2016 Canadian

junior nationals. On the junior men’s side, Royal City’s Matthew McCrady rink put up a valiant fight before falling 8-3 to Team Tardi of Langley/Royal City in the Tim Hortons Junior Men’s curling final. Tied 2-2 midway through the fifth end,Tardi’s team, which includes Burnaby’s DanielWenzek, counted two and stole three in the seventh to pull away. The Tardi rink, which features third Daniel Wenzek of Burnaby, second Jor-

dan Tardi and lead Nicholas Meister, proved unstoppable over the six-day event. They posted a 7-0 record, including four decisions where they racked up double-digits. In the final, the Tardi foursome combined to shoot 83 per cent, with Wenzek good on 84 per cent of his shots. Both the Daniels and Tardi rinks can advance to the World Junior Curling championships in Turkey with a win at the Canadians.
