THE BIG STORY

NEB OKs pipeline – with conditions Board says the decision was a ‘difficult one’

By Jennifer Moreau

jmoreau@burnabynow.com

The Kinder Morgan pipeline plan just cleared a major hurdle.

The National Energy Board is recommending the federal government approve the company’s plan to twin the Trans Mountain pipeline as long as 157 conditions are met.

The announcement came down yesterday, after more than two years of hearings and a record number of intervenors participating.

“The board is of the view that overall, with the implementation of Trans Mountain’s environmental protection procedures and mitigation, and the board’s recommended conditions, the project would not likely cause significant environmental effects,” said Robert Steedman, the NEB’s chief environment officer in a pre-written statement read to media via teleconference from Calgary.

Steedman went on to note the board found “significant effects” in relation to increases in tanker traffic associated with the expansion.Tankers are expected to increase from five per month to 34.

However, marine shipping is outside the NEB’s jurisdiction.

In the NEB’s 533-page report, the board stated the decision was a “difficult one” and noted many of the benefits are national or regional, yet the burdens are rest with local, regional and aboriginal communities.

The board’s approval means the pipeline’s fate now rests with the Liberal cabinet, and the final decision will likely be announced in December.

The NEB review included an

The pipeline route from the Burnaby Mountain tank farm to the Westridge Marine Terminal is still not clear, as noted in the report. If Kinder Morgan can’t go through Burnaby Mountain, the line will likely run through the city’s Westridge neighbourhood.

As for Burnaby residents wondering where, exactly, the pipeline will go, there’s no precise date yet.

One of the board’s 157 conditions speaks to criticism from Burnaby’s fire department about

the company’s firefighting capabilities at the local tank farm, something that was already included in the earlier released draft conditions.The board also requires Kinder Morgan to assess firefighting equipment and consult with appropriate municipal representatives and first responders.The board also called for an updated risk assessment for the Burnaby terminal.

It appears based on the NEB report and comments from spokespeople in Calgary that no Burnaby residents will lose any private property because of the

project.

The NEB’s main task was to determine whether the project was in Canada’s best interests.

Here are the main reasons they said yes to the pipeline: 1. Increased access for Canadian oil 2. Hundreds of long-term jobs; thousands in construction 3. Development for indigenous communities 4. Benefits from spending on pipeline materials 5.Considerable government revenue

Newsnow REACTION TO DECISION

THE TIMELINE:

Opponents are not surprised Jennifer Moreau

jmoreau@burnabynow.com

Local reaction to the National Energy Board’s decision on the Kinder Morgan pipeline came swift on Thursday. The final decision now lies with federal cabinet. Here’s what local stakeholders said: KENNEDY STEWART, MP FOR BURNABY SOUTH - NOT SURPRISED. “I expected the National Energy Board to rubberstamp this project, and they did.The process had been designed by Stephen Harper to help the application to succeed. ... Although Mr. Trudeau promised to fix and revise the process, he didn’t do that,” Stewart told the NOW. “The NEB admits British Columbia is taking the risks, but there’s not a lot of benefits to us, which is what we’ve been hearing from residents across Burnaby and British Columbia for the past four years.”

As for next steps, Stewart said the only person who can stop the pipeline is Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

“The project is not a good project for British Columbia for a whole variety of reasons,” he said. “I don’t even know where to start, the construction phase (will be) disruptive.They’re going to build something the size of a SkyTrain, then we’re moving (890,000) barrels of oil a day through our community with all the risk that entails, then one tanker per day at least filling up and sailing through. It makes Burnaby a heavy industry city now, and that’s a big change to how we think of Burnaby.”

Stewart said if Trudeau pushes the project through, he will lose some of the 18 seats the Liberals hold in B.C., and the question is: How many seats is he willing to lose?

“I think there’s still a chance to stop it; we just have to be loud about it,” he said.

TERRY BEECH, MP BURNABY NORTH SEYMOUR – ALSO NOT SURPRISED. “I don’t want to say I’m not

surprised, but I’m not surprised. I think the next seven months are going to be really important, and I’m going to focus intently on the next part of this interim process that we promised to Canadians and the residents of Burnaby North-Seymour,” he said.

Beech said he spent close to 18 months door-knocking in his riding, and his office is making the pipeline its Number 1 priority. Beech’s office is organizing and attending events to hear people’s views on the pipeline. He’s also arranging a public forum with his entire B.C. caucus in the first two weeks of September, and he’s pushing for the natural resources and environment ministers to come to Burnaby.

“If you have strong views on either side, I invite you to participate and reach out to my office,” he said. “Every single person that’s contacted me has been invited to attend a meeting. I want to continue to encourage people to reach out to my office.”

When asked if he was nervous he could lose his seat if the Liberals move ahead with the pipeline, Beech replied, “My job is not to protect my seat; my job is to represent my community, and that’s what I’m going to do to the best of my ability.”

Beech said he’s met with community leaders, constituents, mayors, provincial representatives, the B.C. premier, MLAs, MPs, the Liberal cabinet and caucus and even the prime minister on the subject.

ELSIE DEAN, A FOUNDING MEMBER OF BURNABY RESIDENTS OPPOSING KINDER MORGAN EXPANSION - NOT SURPRISED “I expected it, and it was like listening to the old story over and over,” she said, vowing to keep up the group’s opposition.

“We’re going to continue to oppose it, because we don’t believe it is a benefit to society, (or) to our country, because they don’t take into consideration the costs of any mishaps, and no one can guarantee

there won’t be oil spills and accidents,” she said. “We’ve had a long history of bad air from oil companies, and with all the tanks they are putting on the mountain, there will be fumes, and this is deadly stuff they are bringing into Burnaby.”

BROKE is planning to encourage people to participate in the federal government’s extra consultation process, and Dean said there would be more protests.

“They will be constant.We do have to work hard to convince the federal government, because every indication is that they also will approve it,” she said.

KINDER MORGAN – PLEASED BUT STILL REVIEWING THE DECISION No one from Kinder Morgan’s Trans Mountain Expansion media team was available to comment, as they’re still going over the decision, but they did release this statement: “Trans Mountain is pleased the National Energy Board has recommended that our project be approved by Governor in Council because it is in the Canadian public interest.

In its recommendations, the board has set out 157 conditions.Trans Mountain is cur-

rently reviewing the decision and will have additional comments later today.”

DEREK CORRIGAN, BURNABY MAYOR - DISAPPOINTED “I’m not surprised, but I’m of course disappointed.You hope against hope there would be a more reasonable decision than what we received,” Corrigan said. “I suspected they were on this path from the first day they opened the hearings.”

Corrigan said the response to the NEB’s decision is now in the hands of the public.

“The prime minister has to hear from communities that are affected, and people who are sympathizing to the issues we’re facing, that this issue is one that won’t go away. He’s not going to simply placate people by simply sending up a panel to listen.”

Corrigan would like to see the NEB’s process redone and a national strategy for fossil fuels.

“The side benefit is the creation of jobs for Canadian citizens, but how we manage that resource and how long we continue to use that resource has never been considered by any government,” he said, adding we have a limited amount of oil.

Pipeline fast facts: !The Trans Mountain pipeline has been in place since the 1950s and transports crude and diluted bitumen from the Alberta oil sands to Burnaby. It’s the only pipeline to the West Coast. ! The line currently ships 300,000 barrels of oil per day but will increase to 890,000, nearly triple, if the company builds a twin line, mostly along the same route. The additional oil is destined for foreign markets, like China. !The company would add more than a dozen new tanks to the Burnaby Mountain storage facility, increasing capacity from 1.6 million barrels of oil to 3.6 million. !The project includes plans to expand the Westridge Marine Terminal, where tankers load crude, by raising the number of berths to three. Monthly tanker traffic on the Burrard Inlet would increase from five to 34. !According to Kinder Morgan, benefits include increased tax revenue for the City of Burnaby from $7 million to $13 million and 50 permanent post-construction jobs in all of B.C.

which includes more Crown consultation with First Nations and a threeperson ministerial panel to consult with communities and indigenous groups along the pipeline route.

The move pushes the final answer

First inklings Kinder Morgan is serious about expanding Trans Mountain pipeline. It’s been “oversubscribed,” meaning shipping demand exceeds the volumes the line can handle, which is 300,000 barrels per day.

August to December 2011

The Wilderness Committee’s Ben West, the TsleilWaututh Nation and Burnaby Mayor Derek Corrigan come out against the pipeline expansion. Newly elected MP Kennedy Stewart is also raising concerns.

April 2012

Company announces $5-billion plan to expand pipeline to roughly 700,000 barrels per day. Plans include expanding the Westridge Marine Terminal in Burnaby, construction starting in 2016 and the project running by 2017. Kinder Morgan has not yet applied to the National Energy Board for project approval or held any public consultation sessions yet.

August 2012

New group of local residents forms: Burnaby Residents Opposing Kinder Morgan Expansion. They hold a packed town hall meeting in September.

Dec. 15, 2013

Kinder Morgan files a facilities application, the official proposal to twin the line and expand the marine terminal and tank farm. The expansion, if approved, would increase the line’s oil shipments, from 300,000 to 890,000 barrels per day. (Note the increase from 700,000). A record number of intervenors will apply to participate in the hearing.

January 2014

Justin Trudeau tells Metro (Calgary): “I certainly hope that we’re going to be able to get that pipeline approved,” when discussing the Kinder Morgan pipeline.

Feb. 5, 2014

The NOW obtains a memo to some residents, stating the preferred pipeline route has changed. The company’s “preferred” western route comes down the west side of Cliff Avenue, by the Drummond’s Walk urban trail and the Burrard Inlet Conservation Area.

March 2014

Corrigan tells Global News he’s prepared to stand in front of a bulldozer to stop the pipeline, while TsleilWaututh Nation launches a legal challenge in May.

April 2014

Company now wants to drill a route through Burnaby Mountain. The survey work leads to a standoff and court case with the City of Burnaby.

November 2014

The battle over Burnaby Mountain heats up, and thousands of protesters descend on the site over roughly two weeks. More than 100 people are arrested for breaking a court injunction to stay away, but all charges are dropped because the company had incorrect GPS coordinates for the no-go zone.

July 1, 2015

Liberal leader Justin Trudeau makes campaign stop in Burnaby but dodges questions on what, exactly, he would do with the Kinder Morgan pipeline portfolio. He says the Liberals will “engage in a new open process for all pipelines” and talks about the environment.

October 2015

Liberals win, and Terry Beech takes Burnaby NorthSeymour. Beech says, “We are going to redo the National Energy Board process. We’re going to broaden the scope. We’re going to make sure it’s objective, fair and based on science.”

November 2015

What to expect next in pipeline process The NEB has recommended that the pipeline should be built, but that doesn’t mean it will go forward, as the Liberal cabinet has the final say.

The federal government has launched an extended review period,

February 2011

for Kinder Morgan from August to December of this year.

Meanwhile, the provincial government also wants to conduct its own environmental review.

Pipeline project costs go up from $5.4 billion to $6.8-billion due to falling loonie, delays and project changes.

December 2015

Kinder Morgan files its final argument with the NEB, which then moves hearings to Burnaby. Hearings end Jan. 29.

January 2016

The Canadian government said it plans to extend the Kinder Morgan pipeline review by several months to allow for an upstream greenhouse gas emissions assessment and more consultation with First Nations.

ebooks are too pricey

ST E N D S M AY 31

charge of buying for the library’s four branches, said BPL supports the coalition and has benefited from the gains they’ve managed – but pricing is still far from fair.

“It’s kind of all over the map. Each publisher has their own way of charging,” said Moses. “(The pricing) puts an unreasonable strain on our budget to try and satisfy the demand.” ebook rentals only account for two to three per cent of BPL’s circulation, according to Moses, in part because pricing has limited their ebook selection. In some cases, the library pays triple the cost of a single physical copy for an ebook of the same title. In addition, ebook licensing is often restrictive. Some licences have an expiry date, requiring branches to repurchase copies after a period of 12 months or 26 uses, and all of BPL’s ebooks are restricted to cardholders with a Burnaby address.

editorial@burnabynow.com

Burnaby Public Library is joining the chorus of Canadian libraries voicing their dissatisfaction with the steep pricing of ebooks, saying that publishers and librarians need to work together more closely to establish an affordable purchasing model.

In February, the Canadian Public Libraries for Fair eBook Pricing coalition wrote an open letter to multinational publishers advocating for a sustainable and flexible pricing model, allowing libraries to pay for only what they need, according to their size and means. As a result, publishing company Penguin Random House has established a $65 price cap on its ebooks.

Although Burnaby Public Library is not a member of the group, Miriam Moses, acquisitions manager in

Moses believes Penguin Random Houses’ recent price cap is “still expensive, but more palatable,” and in order for all multinational publishers to lower costs to an affordable rate, Moses said creators, publishers and libraries need to stop blaming each other for elevated prices and instead work together to address pricing.

“If you can step back a bit, it’s a little amusing,” she said. “No one really got together. … They have now.”

The modest movement towards cooperation gives Moses hope that purchasing ebooks will become more cost-effective for libraries, allowing them to keep up with the increase in digital demand.

“There is potential for publishers to come to that understanding that we’re all symbiotic and that we can work together better than we currently are.”

Appeal denied in case of sexual assault

Conviction was for a Central Park incident in 1999

Warning:This story contains graphic content.

Jeremy Deutsch

jdeutsch@burnabynow.com

A man convicted of a sex assault in a Burnaby washroom more than a decade ago has lost his appeal.

The B.C. Court of Appeal has dismissed an appeal by Kenneth Paul Burgar for his conviction in a sexual assault back in 1999.

Burgar was found guilty of sexually assaulting a woman in the Central Park women’s public washroom on April 16 of that year. According to the facts of the case, the victim was using the washroom and sitting on the toilet when she saw a man masturbating below her stall door.The man then barged into her stall and pushed his body against her while masturbating. He ejaculated on her and fled.

At the time of the attack, DNA recovered from the victim’s clothing was entered into a police database, but turned up nothing and was left as unknown. But 13 years later, the case was reopened after the data bank matched the unknown profile to Burgar.

At the time of the charge in 2012, Burgar was already in prison. He was convicted of the crime in 2013.

During his trial, Burgar denied sexually assaulting the woman. He did acknowledge that he had once tried to expose himself to a woman in the same washroom but ended up masturbating in front of her stall and wiping his semen on the door. He suggested the complainant could have been involved in a separate incident in the washroom and somehow came in contact with his semen.

But the trial judge didn’t

believe Burgar and described his explanation of how his semen may have gotten on the washroom stall as unbelievable. It’s unclear what sentence Burgar received for the assaults as it wasn’t noted in court documents.

Burgar attempted to appeal the case on several grounds, citing a number of errors by the trial judge and questioning the victim’s credibility. At one point Burgar argued the judge erred by refusing Burgar’s request for the judge to “take a stroll around the park,” which he made during post-trial submissions.

However, in all his arguments, the Court of Appeal found no grounds for an appeal.

Burgar, who is in his 60s, has a history of committing indecent acts in public, including a conviction in a 2005 crime in Surrey.

Opinion now OUR VIEW

NEB decision merely fuels the fight

The NEB’s decision was not a huge surprise.

In a nutshell: “The Board finds that the Project is in Canada’s public interest, and recommends the GIC approve the Project...”

Unfortunately the process was skewed from the beginning because the NEB’s very job is to look out for energy projects. It’s not called the National Energy Board for nothing.

While it has tried to send a message that it is not

merely rubber stamping a big oil project, not many folks believe it. It piles on more conditions in an attempt to quell concerns this project is just another environmental disaster waiting to happen. It’s voluminous report attempts to ignore what every reasonable person can see – it doesn’t make sense to have a narrow inlet serve as an oil tanker freeway. And it makes even less sense to put it in an earthquake zone which scientists say is

coming close to bringing on the big one.

The NEB’s mandate does not include considering climate change – so, understandably, it gets a pass on that one. But it shouldn’t. Certainly not if it wants to say the project is in “Canada’s public interest.”

Is Canada’s public interest not served by having a liveable planet?

But, even if you put that aside, the economic benefits to Burnaby as a com-

munity will be limited and both the Burnaby Board of Trade and the City of Burnaby have said any risks and impacts far outweigh any potential benefits. So, are we to understand that Burnaby is taking one for the team?

Now, ultimately, it will be up to the federal government to make the final decision. But we doubt if Justin Trudeau will step up and overrule the NEB’s decision.

While Trudeau has

promised to reform a climate-change-denier government culture into a future-thinking environmentally conscious government, he’s also in charge of the government bank account.

Unfortunately, this decision by the NEB will now fuel the protests and increase cynicism.

The First Nations people have said they will not budge in their opposition, and the people in Burnaby will not be satisfied with

this decision.

It will encourage the oil sector to believe that, while new expectations have to be met, they’re almost guaranteed a final nod if any amount of money can flow into government coffers.

This decision is a recipe for conflict, not consultation, as the NEB would like it to be perceived.

MY VIEW ASTRID CASTANEDA AND DAVE DIEWERT

City council is failing residents An open letter to Mayor Derek Corrigan and council: We are organizers with the Stop Demovictions Burnaby campaign and the two people who presented our social impact study report, A Community Under Attack, May 16 to city council.

We want to say thanks for the opportunity to present the findings of our report to you all; it was good having an audience of Burnaby’s political leadership to hear what we have learned in the community about the impacts of displacement on people’s lives.

But we are quite shocked by the complete lack of engagement on the part of the mayor and council after hearing our report presentation.The sustained discussion and keen support offered to the delegation that presented before us (on the need to ban blood and plasma acquired for pay) indicated your ability to engage important issues with energy and concern.You clearly recognized the potential harms in the issue presented and affirmed the importance of blood donation for saving lives.What we all witnessed was a city council that was thoughtful in its engagement and caring in its response.

You can imagine our surprise when you flatly refused to exhibit the same thoughtfulness and care in response to our report.Were you all under a gag order?

Was our presentation unclear and ambiguous so that you needed to refer it back to staff to get help understanding it? Did you think that once staff reads the report they will counter our findings by informing you all that in fact the people being demovicted from their homes and communities by city development policies actually don’t mind moving out, that they appreciate the opportunity to live elsewhere?

We are sure you understood our presentation, and we are sure you know that your approval of rezoning applications that involve the demolition of affordable rental apartments and the eviction of low-income and working class people from the Metrotown neighbourhood is inflicting hardship on hundreds of current residents, and that this is something you should stop and rethink.

Yet the new proposed plan, according to the city’s own maps, will only exacerbate these demovictions as virtually the entire area is upzoned to 12-plus storeys.

You must realize that your development plans and policies are disastrous for many current residents, producing anxiety, fear, uncertainty and hardship in their daily lives and furthering homelessness in the city.

We need to imagine a different future together and not move along the same path with increasing speed, Continued on page 9

Chuck E. Cheese gone bad A popular teen night at the local Chuck E. Cheese was cancelled after about 1,000 youths who had gathered at the establishment got out of control in January.

“It was like a pulsating mob,” said manager Darlene Murray.

An employee was assaulted after telling a teen who had been drinking to leave the parking lot, and police made more than 20 alcohol- and drug-related arrests.

Kayactivist protest ‘failed miserably’

Group protests more ‘demovictions’

Dear Editor Re: Kayactivists descend on terminal, Burnaby NOW, May 18.

Went down to the protest to have a look.

Guess how most of them got there? Hint: Parking attendants were required. A couple of hundred mostly old hippies, hipsters, un-informed youth, paid protesters and Lizzie-May whom I guess now, flew in from Ottawa. Oh, and the Kayactivists displaying the definition of ironic paddling around in their petroleum based water craft. They were chanting about “social licence,” among other rants and ravings.

I am going to go out on a limb here, and say that this demonstration failed miserably. Now let’s get back to business and get our products to the global markets and get the country back on track and into the black.

P. Kurbis, Burnaby

Track club has done great things for youth Dear Editor Re: Fee hikes threaten sports clubs, Burnaby NOW, May 18.

The Burnaby Striders Track and Field Club is a non-profit organization that has been kept up and running by dedicated coaches and parents since 1958.

Burnaby Striders is the only track and field club in Burnaby for children. Their coaches and executive work hard to help promote athletics to Burnaby’s youth with their membership program and have also stepped in to help high school students at times when teacher/ government labour issues have stopped school practices, so these students’ training would not be jeopardized for important zone and provincial meets that assist them in their post-secondary applications.

The Burnaby Striders have a very strong JD (junior development) membership (children aged 8 to 12) that the club’s coaches train and mentor to be competitive athletes who understand good sportsmanship. All members train to improve both their physical and mental capabilities to compete and improve their performances, which goes tenfold as these skills are transferred to many other areas of their lives (their school work).

The Burnaby Striders have been practising at Burnaby South Secondary for over 20 years.

The Burnaby school district’s proposed rental fee increase – $440 to $4500 over the next three years – for the Burnaby Striders’ fall / winter practices at Burnaby South Secondary is outrageous.

Both of my children have been or are members of the Burnaby Striders Track and Field Club, and I was the Burnaby Striders’ volunteer registrar for two years.

I have seen first-hand how beneficial the Burnaby Striders’ program has been to so many JD and high school aged members. So all I would like to say to everyone is please rethink this rental rate increase.

This proposed increase is not right and should not be charged to the Burnaby Striders Track and Field Club or to any other non-profit organization that is trying to help Burnaby youth and the community as a whole.

Simone Gouveia, Burnaby

NOW OPEN IN BURNABY! #2-4465 Skyline Drive

Rick McGowan The displacement of an entire income group and neighbourhood is something the City should prevent. Instead they want to ramp it up with a new downtown Metrotown plan that will increase density allowances and decrease the prices developers pay to buy extra density. In a nutshell, the remaining lowrises will be replaced, prematurely in many cases, with minimum 12 storey shoebox condos, too small and too unaffordable for most of the displaced renters.

They want the new land use framework by the end of 2016. Do the low income renters in Metrotown a favour, and write, tweet, phone your councillors and Mayor telling them to rip up this new proposal and come up with a planning process that begins with the residents in Metrotown.

Jack Burns Mr. Corrigan, you repeatedly talk about your “duties to deal with the million more people coming into the region.” It seems you have your priorities completely backwards. Most of this million more people still live outside Canada. You have absolutely no duty to deal with those people. Your primary duty concerns the citizens of Burnaby. Get out of your ivory tower for a change and talk to the people who live in Burnaby. We don’t need 125 thousand people coming into Burnaby over 25 years alone. Your solution is to displace many of us to make space for those who want to come in. I for one would have to pay at least $500 more a month for my rent (or $6000 a year) to find a similar place in one of your new ugly towers of Metrotown, where I have lived for 20 years. That’s the equivalent of an eviction notice to me, not only out of my building, but out of the whole community. And all this because YOU are concerned about the million more people coming in. What about us? bill smith If “Stop Demovictions Burnaby” donated as much to Corrigaan’s NDP/BCA election fund as the property developers do, they might have a reasonable chance... the only other option would be to vote in a new administration.. Just as well because the current crew is well past their sell-by date.

Liberals hope Greens continue to ‘distract’ Howard Beale Christy Calrk is the one that wants a repeat of history. Specifically the 2011 federal election. As long as the Greens remain a distraction, the Liberals will continue to rule and destroy BC. JOIN THE CONVERSATION ON TWITTER

Opinionnow Yes, the world can change

Dear Editor Congratulations and thank you for your excellent ‘Our View’ in today’s (May 18) print edition of the Burnaby NOW. Yes! Prime Minister Trudeau, do the right thing and take the leap. Listen to the scientists, First Nations, communities along the proposed Kinder Morgan pipeline expansion, environmentalists and yes,

even economists who speak of the jobs lost in the inevitable spill, leak, fire on the land and water routes.

Yes, we are dependent on fossil fuels but what a concept: we can change and give up some of our comforts for our children and grandchildren, so they might enjoy some of the pleasures we now enjoy.

The First Nations have it right. They look forward seven generations and honour the earth, air and water that feed them. These are elemental

necessities, all else is gravy.

And Ms. Tait who called the protesters “hypocrites” – for you, I say name-calling is nonproductive, does not further conversation and is full of assumptions.

I took a photo of two children on Saturday at the demonstration, no more than toddlers, wearing vests saying “for my sake” and “keep it in the ground.” We, and Mr. Trudeau, would be wise to act on those simple messages.

Elan Gibson, by email

The Burnaby Now is looking for carriers in all areas.

NEWS

er, but you chose to refer it to staff in an effort to undermine our work and its implications, and purchase for yourselves relief from the guilt of evicting low-income, working-class immigrant families and individuals from their homes and community to make room for others deemed more deserving of living in Metrotown (not to mention developer profits and municipal financial gain).

But no matter what staff says in its report back to you, we bear witness to the terrible toll your policies and decisions are taking on human lives; no tech-

nical corrections from the planning department can remove the fear, stress and upheaval current renters are experiencing as they await demoviction notices.

(Monday) night, we witnessed the utter failure of your leadership – a failure to take responsibility for your harmful actions and a failure to engage residents in important conversations about the direction of our collective future. Burnaby is facing not only a housing and displacement crisis but a crisis of governance as well.

Astrid Castaneda and Dave Diewert are with Stop Demovictions Burnaby.

A Burnaby brewery wellknown for its Belgian-style ale celebrated its second anniversary on Saturday by throwing a huge party.

Dageraad Brewing opened back in 2014 in a small, hole-in-the-wall location on Thunderbird Crescent off Production Way in Burnaby. All founder Ben Coli wanted to do was create a beer that paid homage to the beers of Belgium – he even named his brewery Dageraad in honour of Dageraadplaats, a popular town square in Antwerp, Belgium.

Coli figured he’d be most successful selling directly to restaurants and liquor stores, after all, Dageraad is a “bottle-focused brewery” where its beer is fermented in a bottle before it’s ready for sale. But then

he opened the tasting room, and Dageraad’s popularity ballooned.

“I just wanted to brew some kind of nerdy, specialty beers and hide away in an industrial park in Burnaby, and it’s gotten a lot bigger than I ever thought it was going to, and we’re selling a lot more beer than I ever thought we were going to,” Coli said.

Today, Coli is in the process of expanding Dageraad into a second space next door, which he hopes will eventually be converted into a larger tasting room.

He even admits that one day, Dageraad may need to rent a third space if business continue on its current trajectory.

QUESTIONS FOR

BEN COLI Cayley Dobie

cdobie@burnabynow.com

HOW DOES IT FEEL CELEBRATING DAGERAAD’S SECOND ANNIVERSARY? It feels like an incredibly short time, and it feels like an incredibly long time at the same time. It’s been a ton of work to get to where we are; it was a lot of work before we even opened.

It’s been two years since we opened. It’s been a real journey, but at the same time I look back on it and it feels like it was yesterday we were getting going here.

2

HAS IT BEEN EVERYTHING YOU EXPECTED? Of course, everything came out differently than I thought it would. It’s been loads of fun; lots of work and loads of fun, but yeah, I mean, of course, you can’t really foresee how things are going to go, you just sort of take a leap of faith when you’re starting a business like this, and you just hope you’re going to work everything out.

People sometimes ask me,

‘How did you know how to open a brewery?’ And I tell them I didn’t.You don’t know when you start, you learn along the way and just have to have confidence in yourself that you’re going to be able to work out how to do it.

3

ARE YOU MAKING A PROFIT? What does a profit look like? All the money goes back into the brewery, I’ve barely seen a nickel, there’s always more expensive crap I can buy.

4

ARE YOU HAPPY WITH YOUR LOCATION IN BURNABY? Yeah, there’s some definite upsides. Honestly, the Vancouver market has gotten really crowded, and it’s

getting more crowded because there’s more breweries opening up and honestly, where we are, rent is cheap – well, it’s relatively cheap.

It’s not cheap anywhere in Greater Vancouver – but it’s relatively cheap, which allows us to do a lot of the cool stuff that we do.

I mean, for a lot of breweries to think about bottle conditioning, to dedicate that kind of space to just have beer sitting around while it ferments, a lot of the breweries couldn’t even think about doing that, and we can.

Also, in the building that we’re in, it’s multi-base, so if we need more space we can just look around for another vacancy in the same building.

City OKs big bucks for audiovisual upgrade Jeremy Deutsch

jdeutsch@burnabynow.com

It’s safe to say, the average household upgrades its home electronics every few years to keep up with the times.

In the case of Burnaby city hall, that upgrade is about 20 years in the making.

Council recently agreed to spend $750,000 to re-

place the audio/visual system in the city hall council chambers.

The current AV system was installed in the late 1990s. Since then, various components have been repaired or replaced, but overall it’s reached the end of its useful life and requires replacement, according to a staff report.

The report noted the project involves upgrades

which include replacing the existing analog presentation systems to HD digital standards with a widescreen format.The recording and broadcast system will also be upgraded to digital standards which will include automated production, recording and archiving systems, with integration to community cable broadcast systems and web streaming capability.

Mayor Derek Corrigan said there have been problems in the past with the system, adding that having an effective A/V system is crucial to the operations of the city.

“This is expensive equipment, but it’s what staff have considered necessary to bring us to a level where we’re able to provide the service the public demands,” he said, adding jok-

ingly that staff have to find replacement parts for the current system on eBay. He also noted the city would be adding another camera to make it easier for people to view council meetings at home and go back through the archives.

The budget calls for spending $500,000 on the equipment and installation, $85,000 for a general contractor’s work, and $50,000

for millwork modifications.

The rest covers contingencies and taxes.

The plan is to start work on the project in late July and finish by September.

Since the work is being done in council chambers, the city council meetings planned for Aug. 29 and Sept. 12 will have to be held in an alternate location.

‘Tiny’ Council opposes pay-for-plasma clinics brewery Jeremy Deutsch

Continued from page 11 fermentation tanks in the next couple of months – we have five, so we’re moving up to seven – so it’s going to be a 40 per cent increase in capacity, which makes us, instead of being incredibly tiny, it’s just really tiny. (We’re) still one of the smallest breweries around.

BONUS: WHAT’S YOUR FAVOURITE PART ABOUT RUNNING THE

BIZ? It’s really hard work, which is actually a reward in itself sometimes because it’s really nice to go home at the end of the day physically tired. But really, having that glass of beer that I made myself after work and sitting in my tasting room and watching other people enjoy my beer, those are some really rewarding things.

jdeutsch@burnabynow.com

Local Burnaby politicians are weighing in on the issue of pay-for-plasma clinics – and it’s not in support of the idea.

This week, council voted to send a letter to both the provincial and federal health ministers opposing the clinics while also urging both levels of government to encourage Canadians to become volunteer blood donors.

The resolution for the let-

ter was passed after a presentation to council from Kat Lanteigne, the cofounder of Bloodwatch.org, a group opposed to private blood clinics.

She was asking council to enact a bylaw banning private blood brokers in the municipality, arguing the clinics set up in neighbourhoods where there is no oversight from Health Canada or anyone to take care of the donors.

“This is an urgent matter.We’re fighting a billiondollar pharmaceutical lob-

by that wants to take control of our point of collection,” Lanteigne told council, noting her organization is trying to get the province of B.C. to ban the clinics.

In April, the province’s health minister Terry Lake said he would consider a pay-for-plasma clinic to operate in B.C. During Lanteigne’s presentation, she noted Canada was self-sufficient for whole blood and fresh blood for transfusions but buys medication that uses plasma as a derivative.

She also argued there should only be one national blood agency, Canadian Blood Services, overseeing blood collection in the country, suggesting private clinics will make the system more like the American system.

Council gave their full support to BloodWatch’s efforts, but Mayor Derek Corrigan pointed out the city can’t prohibit something that isn’t illegal; it can only regulate where a clinic would open.

He said the city can take a

more active role in encouraging residents to become donors.

“It’s particularly important for us to get this message out to our very diverse community, that it’s everybody’s issue and that we have to ensure that all of us are contributing,” Corrigan said.

Coun. NickVolkow said he was shocked by the idea of pay-for plasma clinics.

“We’ve come to a place where economics has become an overriding factor in everything we do,” he said.

City now Here’s how to help in Fort McMurray fires Jennifer Moreau

jmoreau@burnabynow.com

The Fort McMurray fires could last for months, and with tens of thousands of people affected, Burnaby residents may be wondering how to help. Here are the best ways to assist: RED CROSS The Red Cross is the primary group helping fire victims.The best way to help is to donate money so the Red Cross can spend it on what people need most.The Red Cross is helping with emergency food, clothing, shelter, personal services and basic necessities.

Don’t bother donating used clothes or furniture.The cost of storing and shipping can be expensive, and the Red Cross would prefer money instead.

To donate, visit www. redcross.ca or call 1-800418-1111 or drop by local Red Cross offices at 3400 Lake City Way or 7355 Canada Way.They accept cash, credit or cheques.

To send a $10 donation over the phone, text “FIRES” to 45678, or send a $5 donation by texting REDCROSS to 30333.

The federal government will match individual donations to the Red Cross to help in Fort McMurray, and so will the Alberta provincial government, so a $1 donation means $3 for the Red Cross.This matching program runs until May 31.

SUCCESS is partnering with the Red Cross to collect donations to help firerelief efforts.To make a donation in person – in cheque

Fast facts

" The fire started May 1 and it could last for months " 80,000 residents from Fort McMurray and surrounding areas were evacuated " There are 25 wildfires burning " 229,000 hectares are ablaze " An estimated 1,600 homes have been destroyed

or cash – go to SUCCESS at Unit 200, 5172 Kingsway.

SALVATION ARMY The Salvation Army is serving 2,000 daily meals to first responders in Fort McMurray and passing out water, food and hygiene kits while providing emotional and spiritual help.

Meanwhile, Salvation Army thrift stores are passing out clothes to the fire victims.

To donate, call 1-800-SAL-ARMY or to make a $10 donation, text FORTMAC to 45678.

GLACIER MEDIA Glacier Media, the company that owns the Burnaby NOW, has launched an online crowdfunding campaign to help the fire victims. Glacier donated $50,000 to jumpstart the campaign, and readers are encouraged to donate as well.

All of the money goes to the Red Cross, which, again, will be tripled when the Alberta and federal governments match funds.

The women are Ally Chan,Winnie Lai and Kristen Van Esch.The awards were handed out in Victoria on May 14. St. John Ambulance is an international humanitarian group.The three women were recognized for volunteer work within their respective brigades or divisions within the organization.

CORRECTION In my last column, I mentioned the annual Euro Fest, on in Burnaby May 28 and 29 at 6540 Thomas St., but the location was incorrect. Euro Fest is at Swangard Stadium in Central Park this year. Apologies for the confusion.

Entertainment now

Seniors’ choir celebrates 40 years of music LIVELY CITY

jmaclellan@burnabynow.com

They’re turning 40, and they’re throwing themselves a party. Er, a concert.

The Confederation Senior Choir is holding a concert on Wednesday, May 25 at Confederation seniors’ centre, starting at 7 p.m.

And not just any concert – it’s a special 40th anniversary bash and the first concert they’re holding at Confederation for the general public.

Maggie Ford, who emailed to let us know about the event, notes the group is a multicultural one made up of volunteers who practise on Saturdays and entertain at seniors’ homes and hospitals on most Tuesdays for nine months of the year.

In its ranks are some folks who’ve been with the choir a long time – including Pat Cameron, who’s been a member for 29 years, and Margaret Burkett, who has been singing for 34 years this year and also organizes and chooses the music.

One of the singers, Shunoi Fung, has joined the ranks of the city’s centenarians, having reached the 100 mark on Nov. 11, 2015.

Everyone is invited to join the choir in a program of lively music – including classic show tunes, big band music, ballads and more – to mark the anniversary. Confederation centre is at 4585 Albert St., North Burnaby. Call 604-2974810.

YUKON BLONDE ONSTAGE Any fans of the Paperboys orYukon Blonde out there?

Be sure to get yourself over to the European Festival at Swangard Stadium on May 28.

The two bands are headlining the festival’s main stage, with the Paperboys set to perform at 6 p.m. and Yukon Blonde at 8 p.m.

The Paperboys, for those who haven’t discovered them, are a self-described “multi-cultural, multi-ethnic, multi-generational, multi-lingual, multi-instrumental, genre bending, coed band” that mixes Celtic and bluegrass sounds with traditional Mexican music.

Popular Canadian indie rockersYukon Blonde are coming to the stage in Burnaby before kicking off a U.S. tour with the Zolas.

The stages at the festival are packed full of entertainment for both Saturday and Sunday, with vocal, dance and instrumental groups representing a wide range of cultures.

The festival is open from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Saturday, and 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Sunday. A weekend pass is $10 at the gate. Check out www. europeanfestival.ca for all the details.

ARTS STUDENTS WIN Some of Burnaby’s top arts students have been given a helping hand with their education, thanks to the Michael J. Fox Theatre Society.

The society has announced the winners of the 2016 Michael J. Fox Family

Scholarships, and five Burnaby high school students receive awards this year.

Winners are Arthi Chandra from Cariboo Hill, Ivy Chu from Byrne Creek, Franco Ferrari of Moscrop, Danae McLean of Burnaby South and Rose McTavish of Alpha.

The money, which ranges from $1,000 to $5,000, is used to help students pursue post-secondary studies in an arts or arts-related area.

Kudos to all the winners – and we’ll look forward to seeing those names in the future.

Do it right: When cutting, it’s important the knife is balanced properly in your hand. Finding the perfect balance point will help reduce fatigue and improve control. PHOTO THINKSTOCK

Tips to cut like a pro chef Chef Dez

ON COOKING editorial@burnabynow.com

It’s time to focus on the act of cutting. Nothing is better than having a personal one-on-one lesson on cutting, but I will try to do my best in written form to communicate some basic tips to

get you started.

When holding a chef’s knife, it is important to have it balanced properly in your hand to reduce fatigue and improve control.To find this balance point, carefully place approximately the middle of the flat side surface of the knife's blade on your extended index finger a couple of inches over a

cutting board. Slowly move the knife, so that your finger travels up or down the knife's blade, to find the position on the knife where it is completely balanced by your one finger. At that point place your thumb of your same hand on the opposite side of the blade and wrap your remaining fingers Continued on page 26

Hand placement is key Continued from page 25 around the handle.

On a good quality knife, this balance point will be approximately on the first inch of where the blade extends from the handle.This is usually because the knife has a full tang, and the weight of this full tang in the handle offsets the weight of the remaining steel in the knife's extended blade. It may seem awkward at first, to grasp the base of the blade in your hand, but after regular practice, it will become comfortable. Holding the knife in other fashions, such as having the index finger extended on the top of the knife when cutting, will reduce the amount of control one has and increase the chance of injury. If you find these instructions on holding a Chef's knife are unclear, I recommend searching the internet to get a visual of this technique.

Placement of the opposite hand (the one holding the food) is also just as vital to prevent injury. One should grasp the product in

a claw-type fashion, with the finger tips bent inwards and the thumb tucked behind them. Having the fingertips bent in towards the palm of the hand will get them out of harm’s way of the knife blade and thus reduce the risk of injury.

Always practise precision, and speed will come in time. Having precise cuts is better than risking an injury.Welcome the chance to practise your knife skills with every opportunity and efficiency will come naturally.

Question Dear Chef Dez, any tips on cutting a loaf of bread horizontally without it being uneven? For example, cutting a full loaf of French bread in half to make garlic bread.

Every time I do it, it is never even.

– Pam C.,Airdrie,Alta.

Answer After starting the cut, it is important to watch where the top edge of your serrated knife is as it moves along the loaf. Don't watch the

part of the knife closest to the handle as it will follow the same even path simultaneously as the top edge. It is closer to where your hand is controlling the knife, and thus less chance for error as long as the knife is even by watching the top edge.

Also be careful to keep your other hand completely flat on the top of the loaf as you cut. Any fingers that could be carelessly hanging down off the side of the loaf are susceptible to being cut accidentally. As an extra precaution, continue to move this hand down the loaf as you cut, keeping it an inch or two away from where the knife is doing the cutting at all times.When you get close to the end of cutting the loaf, move this hand over to the other side of the bread (that has been cut already), to prevent injury as the knife exits the loaf.

Stay sun smart when running this summer and UVB wavelengths or rays.When the UV Index reaches three or more (moderate), you need to be extra careful to protect your skin.

Try to reduce your time in the sun between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. – when the sun’s rays are at their strongest – or any time of the day when the UV Index is three or more. In Canada the UV Index can be three or more from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. between April and September, even when it’s cloudy.

According to the Canadian Cancer Society, skin cancer is the most common cancer in Canada.

Many skin cancers can be prevented.The single most effective way to lower the risk of developing skin cancer is to reduce your exposure to ultraviolet radiation (UVR).

UVR is made of UVA

Before heading out to run or walk or even to have a picnic in the park, check the UV index. Also, here are some tips for a sun safe workout or outing: 1.Try to run early in the morning to avoid the sun’s harmful rays, as noted above.

2. Run in the trails or shady areas to keep cool and avoid excess pavement heat.

3.Wear a hat, sunglasses and sun protective clothing.

Sunscreen and lip balm are running essentials

Continued from page 27 with you or run where there are fountains to keep hydrated.

5. Apply the right strength of sunscreen for your skin type.The Canadian Cancer Society suggests to apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with a sun protection factor (SPF) of 30 or higher. Also check for the UVA/UVB seal on the packaging and if not, make sure it is recognized by the Canadian Dermatology Association Follow the directions on the bottle to apply. If you forget to put it on before going outside, it’s not too late!

Put it on as soon as you can and reapply according to the directions, especially after swimming or sweating.

Average adults needs about two or three tablespoons of sunscreen to cover their body and a teaspoon to cover their face and neck.

Use a lip balm with SPF and reapply when needed.Your lips need protec-

tion too.

Recently after a run, I decided to try the Butterme Body lotion (Green Apple lotion). It is my reward after a run in the heat or hard effort. It is organic and made with all natural ingredients.

In a phone conversation with Alaa Abbassi, owner from Allure Body Bar in Toronto, she explains the benefits of using the Butterme body skincare which was launched last year. “Apply Butterme lotion three to four times per week to keep skin hydrated,” she said.

“The product is recommended for all athletes or (for those) who lead an ac-

tive healthy lifestyle. It is for runners, cyclists, and for all age groups.The line is ideal for the busy bees of the city, helps to soothe, restore and relax your skin.The line only uses plant-derived ingredients to make sure that everything being put on your body is good for you.

The ingredients to all Allure Body Bar’s products are responsibly sourced, ethically created and never tested on animals.”

Former Steveston Secondary Site Now Home to

POLYGON’S KINGSLEY ESTATES

T

he historic fishing village of Steveston blends the best of urban sophistication with rural charm.

It is a mixed bag of small independent shops, trendy restaurants, bistros and coffee shops, all within about eight square blocks.

Now there is another reason to move into the neighbourhood. Bordered by a 15-acre park, the former Steveston Secondary site in Richmond has received a major facelift. Welcome to Polygon’s Kingsley Estates – a collection of 133 executive-style four-bedroom townhomes ranging from 1,688 to 2,008 square feet.

“Kingsley Estates is a benchmark new community in Richmond,” says May Kam, Kingsley Estates sales manager.

“Imagine experiencing exceptional townhome living in a serene community alongside a magnificent 15-acre park,

complete with lush landscaping, a private clubhouse, and a live-in caretaker for additional peace of mind.”

Architecturally, the Tudor-inspired homes at Kingsley Estates are highlighted by exposed timber detailing and steeped gable rooflines. These thoughtfully designed West Coast-inspired homes feature four bedrooms, overheight 10-foot ceilings in the main-floor living areas, powder rooms with marble flooring and large windows with views of the surrounding treetops. The kitchens are complemented with wood or acrylic finish cabinetry, engineered stone countertops with full-height marble backsplash, large islands, gas cooktops and walk-in pantries.

The homes also boast side-by-side garages, maintenance-free landscaping and a charming front yard with quaint wooden fencing.

After a long day, residents can head over to the private clubhouse and unwind beside the fireplace’s warmth or lace up their runners and get in a workout in the fully equipped fitness room. The clubhouse is designed to become the hub for neighbours, family and friends to get together. The indoor-outdoor gathering space is separated by the double doors that lead from the lounge to a courtyard with plenty of space to relax and enjoy soirees.

Parkside living, endless cycling and walking trails, quality finishes and a great location in Steveston – just some of the reasons why Polygon’s Kingsley Estates is so appealing to many.

“Living in the finest area of Richmond comes with exclusive benefits, including being minutes from the restaurants, boutiques and shoreline pathways of

Steveston Village, as well as the exciting shopping and urban amenities of Richmond city centre,” adds Kam. The Polygon family of companies is synonymous with building excellence.

With more than three decades of experience in the province, Polygon has built more than 26,000 homes throughout the Lower Mainland – everything from concrete high-rises and woodframe condominiums to townhomes and single-family communities. The developer is known for its commitment to quality design, sound construction and exceptional customer service.

For more information about Kingsley Estates, please call 604-821-1384, email kingsley@polyhomes.com or visit www. polyhomes.com. Tentative occupancy for the first collection of homes at Kingsley Estates is expected to be fall 2016.

Chan makes Burnaby base The Champs International Skating Centre is home to some world-class figure skaters already, including Olympic medallist Kevin Reynolds.

Add three-time world champion and twotime Olympic silver medallist Patrick Chan to the list.

The Ontario native announced this week that he and coach Kathy Johnson will relocate their training centre to the Burnaby-based Champs centre, with an eye on developing a specialized training facility in Richmond at a later date.

Chan and Johnson will make the move from Detroit in July.

“The decision to change environments was a collaborate (sic) decision with my team and after reflecting on the past season we decided to make the move to Vancouver,” said Chan in a statement.

Champs, which supports numerous national and international skaters, is operated by coach Joanne McLeod.

Lakers launch new season right

Burnaby gets hat trick from Jones to knock off Coquitlam inWLA opener Dan Olson

dolson@burnabynow.com

It wasn’t a masterpiece, but the Burnaby Lakers will gladly hang on to the two points earned Tuesday in the Western Lacrosse Association’s season opener.

By beating the Coquitlam Adanacs 8-6 at the Bill Copeland Sports Centre, Burnaby got an early jump on its playoffs-or-bust goal.

Jason Jones’ third tally of the night -- a shot from the right slot that just trickled behind Coquitlam’s Josh Phillips -stood as the winner in a game where slick passes and dramatic breakouts were hard to come by.

“It was a little sloppy out there but we mainly focused on working hard and playing as a team, all the little things,” remarked Lakers senior statesman Dane Stevens, who contributed two goals and two assists. “The young guys did a great job of blending in and moving the ball and not trying to do too much.”

Without a handful of star staples in uniform, the Lakers were slow off the scoring mark despite outshooting the Adanacs 20-12 in the first period.

It took nearly 15 minutes before either team scored, as Coquitlam grabbed the initial lead. After Burnaby put a pair on the board, by Jones and junior A callup Evan Messenger,

golfburnaby.ca

the two teams played cat-andmouse with the lead until 2:49 into the third, when Messenger’s second tally triggered a three-goal run by the Lakers.

Coquitlam would try to bridge the gap, but just didn’t have the firepower to make a good charge.

“I was really happy with our start, we put up 21 shots in the first period and you’ve got to give their goalie a lot of credit, he came in and shut the door,” said Lakers coach Rory McDade. “We got to him in the second period, got on a little run and that was the difference.”

Jackson Decker counted the team’s other goal, while Scott Jones finished with four assists.

Zach Boychuk, making his first start as a member of the Lakers, kicked aside 33 shots for the win.

As the National Lacrosse League playoffs head into its final few weeks, the team can anticipate a few more players back in green -- Saskatchewan’s Robert Church, Calgary’s Tyler Digby and Peter McFetridge and New England’s Tye Belanger.

The team is also awaiting the end of the college season, when two new lefthanders -- 2016 first overall draft pick Josh Byrne and acquisition Eli McLaughlin -- come home.

The Lakers next game isn’t until May 29 when they visit Maple Ridge.

Businesses that Sky Zone

W

hile Burnaby is a city filled with families, there isn’t an indoor play park within city limits.

Luckily Sky Zone Trampoline Park in Surrey is just a few high bounces away.

The trampoline centre, which opened March 5, gives kids of all ages the chance to fly through the air, and to do so safely.

“We have a very strict protocol,” says Morey Chaplick, owner of Sky Zone in Surrey.

Big kids are not allowed to jump with little kids, especially when it’s busy, he says. There are court monitors throughout the jump park, and there is always a manager on duty.

The Surrey trampoline park is the only Sky Zone in Western Canada. The company has been operating for 20 years and has 200 franchises worldwide.

Chaplick discovered Sky Zone when he lived in Toronto and took his son there, and was impressed by the safe, fun facility.

Hang time: A Burnaby Eagles player, in blue and yellow, out-jumps his opponent in a battle for the ball during an Aussie Rules Football league game. The Eagles are playing hosts to this weekends Aussie Rules Football Canadian championships at Burnaby Lake. PHOTO DE ZAURRINI

Now he’s opened his own park, filled with blue and orange trampolines as far as the eye can see.

Burnaby goes all Aussie

But despite its size, the 30,000-squarefoot facility has plenty of oversight from employees. The court monitors train for weeks at Sky Zone University, and managers are trained extensively in California, where the franchise is based.

Men, women teams battle for national bragging rights Dan Olson

dolson@burnabynow.com

Canada’s secret passion for Australian rules football is going public.

The game popular Downunder is a growing sport in this land of hockey and lacrosse, with Burnaby hosting the first-ever Canadian national championships this weekend.

The tournament features men’s and women’s divisions of teams from Ontario, the East (including Montreal and Atlantic Canada), Alberta and B.C., all vying for footy bragging rights.

“This is the first time for a national championship, and every indication is its going to be big,” said Burnaby Eagles coach Jake Wilkins. “I think everyone who comes down is going to enjoy themselves, whether they know the sport or not.”

Having learned the game growing up in Australia, Wilkins compares the passion for the sport, which is played on an oval-shaped field, to hockey and says the number of Canadian-born players in the local league continues to grow.

“The Eagles have been around for 10 years, but unlike the other B.C. clubs, we’re made up of about 75 per cent Canadians,” said Wilkins. “It’s an international game, but for a long time the foundation of local clubs were visiting Aussies, Irish, English and Aussie ex-pats...

We’ve got people from all over, actually.”

An ex-pat who grew up in the Victoria region of Australia,Wilkins said most people can’t make heads or tails of the game when someone describes it.

When they see it, they latch on quickly.

“In rugby the ball pretty much goes only up or down, but footie you can go anywhere, the ball goes anywhere,” he noted.

Players are required to bounce the rugby-shaped ball when running with it before booting it through one of four uprights.

Ontario has been a bastion with a number of clubs in the Toronto area. Here, a league of six teams, plus Seattle, compete in the B.C. Australian Football League.

There are also two women’s sides in B.C. The tournament, played at the Burnaby Lake Rugby Club, starts Saturday, 9 a.m. when Alberta plays Ontario in the men’s division. Games continue Sunday, with the finals at 3 p.m. (women’s) and 4 p.m. (men’s). For a full schedule, visit http://tinyurl.com/cdnfootie.

With more than 10,000 people coming

to Sky Zone since March, the worst injury they’ve had to handle was a rolled ankle, Chaplick says. His secret? Just follow the rules.

“Don’t try to do something beyond your capabilities,” Chaplick says. “Ask for help, and stay within limitations.”

Sky Zone in Surrey is at 11125-124th Street, a short drive from Burnaby.

The trampoline park is across the road from Scott Road SkyTrain station. The SkyTrain trip takes approximately 15 minutes from Metrotown to Scott Road station.
