SFU INSTRUCTOR CAN’T STAY IN CANADA
‘It’s home, and I don’t want to leave’
Jonathan Newman has lived in Burnaby since he was three – but now he’ll have to leave with his parents By Cornelia Naylor
cnaylor@burnabynow.com
Cariboo Hill Secondary Grade 9 student Jonathan Newman is leaving on a jet plane and he doesn’t know if he’ll be back again. The 14-year-old has lived in Canada since age three, making friends in his neighbourhood near the Burnaby Mountain Golf Course and at Scouts, Sperling Elementary and Cariboo Hill Secondary. But he, his mom and his dad, David Newman, an SFU communications instructor, can’t stay because of problems with their immigration status. “It’s home, and I don’t want to leave home,” Jonathan told the NOW. “I’d be fine if I was gone for just a year, but anything more than that, I wouldn’t really like that. I’d be away from all my friends who I’ve known for 11 years now.” Jonathan’s dad, who holds a New Zealand passport like his son, is caught in a catch-22 when it comes to getting permanent residency in Canada under the current express-entry points system. Newman senior gets no points for having a continuing position at SFU – even though he has been working at the university continuously for eight-and-ahalf years – but he said he is blocked from consideration for permanent positions because of his immigration status. With the expiry of his post-graduation work permit (Newman finished his

PhD at SFU in 2013), he can no longer work in Canada and Jonathan can no longer attend school. The family is appealing to Minister of Immigration John McCallum through Burnaby North-Seymour MP Terry Beech’s office, hoping the minister will use his discretionary powers to grant the family permanent
residency or an invitation to apply on humanitarian and compassionate grounds – so Jonathan can go to Cariboo Hill and the family doesn’t have to pull up its roots in Burnaby. Newman has a lot of support in SFU’s school of communication, according to professor Jody Baker, who has personally written
the immigration minister on his behalf. “He’s had a huge impact on a lot of students here,” Baker said. “He teaches one of the introductory firstyear courses, so he’s got a lot of students, and then he teachers a lot of upper-year courses.They’re very small and very intense.” Baker said he has invited

Newsnow A CLOSER LOOK
A boxer and a boy share life stories By Cornelia Naylor
cnaylor@burnabynow.com
In many ways,Tommy Boyce and Daniel Teperson couldn’t be less alike. Sitting in the dining room of his Burnaby independent living facility, 68-year-old Boyce wears faded jeans and a black Tshirt. He sports a gray goatee and faded tattoos on his forearms. Teperson, a fresh-faced Grade 10 student, wears a tie and his St. George’s blazer. Boyce was born and raised in gritty 1960s East Vancouver and went to working-class Templeton High School. Teperson lives in Kitsilano and attends a private, all-boys prep school. But when Teperson was partnered with Boyce for an intergenerational storytelling project that wrapped up in Burnaby last month, the youngster knew he’d lucked out. “I definitely did,”Teperson tells the NOW. “Right after the first day when I got on the bus, I said, ‘I got the perfect partner.’” They “clicked” over their love of sports, he says, as Boyce (a.k.a.The Blonde Tiger) shared stories of his life and boxing career – which included a Canadian amateur title, a 17-1 pro record and a stint training in the same gym as the late Muhammad Ali. “The thing about talking to someone with such a wide variety of stories to tell is that something in each story connected to something in your life and you could really connect it,”Teperson says of the experience. “… Just because Tommy grew up in East Van, and I was fortunate enough to grow up in a nice neighbourhood in Kitsilano, doesn’t mean that we’re not going to have overlapping experiences.” Teperson and Boyce were brought together by the Raconteurs Project – an eightweek project developed by St. George’s English and social studies teacher Sarah Coates and her longtime friend, Lindsey Fancy, coowner of Home Instead Senior Care in Burnaby. The idea, which Coates

Below, Boyce poses with an original poster promoting a fight between Muhammad Ali and Canadian George Chuvalo. PHOTO CORNELIA NAYLOR and Fancy hope to grow into a standalone organization, is to connect generations through the art of storytelling. As a pilot project this year, Coates integrated the concept into an English class at St. George’s – pairing her students and seniors at the Poppy Residences and bringing them together for hour-and-a-half sessions over the course of eight weeks.
I got the perfect partner ...
At a wrap-up luncheon in June, participating seniors were presented with booklets of stories and poems students had written about the tales Poppy residents had told them. “This was part of the students’ English for the term,” Coates says. “We did creative writing, and so this was our impetus for the cre-
ative writing that they did. We used these visits to do exercises when we went back to school.” In the future, she and Fancy want to see the project expand beyond St. George’s. “I would envision different ages, different types of schools, even different types of programs – like if Girl Guides or Boy Scouts wanted to participate as well,” she says. The Poppy Residences, which hosted the wrapup luncheon last month, was picked for the pilot because there was a lot of interest from residents in participating. For Boyce, the decision to get involved was partly an act of defiance against dementia and Alzheimer’s – a resolve that was driven home recently by the death of Ali, who had Parkinson’s syndrome, a disease that sometimes results from head trauma from activities like boxing. “I knew he had the same thing that I got, demen-
tia and whatever from too many shots,” Boyce told the NOW, “and it’s the same for me, right? That’s what I’m going through now, but the more you fight, the better you are. Like, I’m not going to lay down and lick my nuts, that’s for sure.” Boyce hopes others who struggle with dementia will be encouraged by his openness. In the meantime, he said sharing his stories with Teperson and other students was a new and rewarding experience. “They loved it,” he said. “I don’t usually do this, but I enjoyed doing it, and I watched the kids’ faces and their eyes and watched them how they liked it, and they were really into it, so I figured, ‘Well, I might as well spill my guts.’” The Raconteurs Project is currently recruiting storytellers (seniors) and storywriters (youth) in the Lower Mainland for 2016/17.

Newsnow Federal pipeline panel will make a stop in Burnaby Jennifer Moreau
jmoreau@burnabynow.com
Do you have something you would like to share with the federal government about the Kinder Morgan pipeline project?
The Liberals’ three-person ministerial panel will be in Burnaby between Aug. 9 and 11, the NOW has learned.The panel is open to the public and media, but the exact location has not been announced yet.To
participate in the sessions, email nrcan.ministerial paneltmx-comiteministeriel tmx.rncan@canada.ca.The event will be a roundtable discussion or a town hall meeting with the three panelists: Kim Baird,Tony Pe-
nikett and Annette Trimbee. Other cities on the July and August tour include Calgary, Edmonton, Jasper, Kamloops, Chilliwack, Abbotsford, Langley,Vancouver and Victoria.The federal government is also using an
online survey to gather feedback until Sept. 30. Anyone wishing to provide comments directly to the panel can do so by emailing the address listed above. The three panel members are travelling the pipeline
route, gathering feedback from communities.The panel is tasked with gathering more public input to inform the Liberal cabinet, which has the ultimate say on whether the pipeline will be expanded.
Students encouraged to ‘make as much noise as possible’
Continued from page 1 be encouraging students to spread the word and make as much noise as possible on our social media channels.” The latest news from the immigration ministry is that it is working on changes to its express entry program, but there’s no guarantee Newman would have enough points under the new system either. “It is premature to comment on possible system changes, timing or whether or not Mr. Newman would be impacted,” reads an emailed statement from communications advisor Nancy Chan.
For Newman, the process has been frustrating. “There is some dissonance in Canadian immigration policy,” he said in an email to the NOW, “where on the one hand over 28,000 Syrian refugees can be accepted into the country at relatively short notice, and yet highly qualified scholars with years of living and working here (and ongoing work) are forced to leave because they don’t fit the narrow requirements of the points scheme.” But that’s comparing apples and oranges, according to Chan. “Canada resettles refugees to save lives and to pro-
vide stability to those fleeing persecution who have no hope of relief,” she wrote. “Canada’s resettlement programs are respected internationally because they

provide permanent residence as a long-term solution. Economic immigration programs, such as those under Express Entry which
Mr. Newman is seeking to use as a means of obtaining permanent residence, are in place to select immigrants for their skills and ability to contribute to Canada’s economy.” As for the likelihood the minister would step in and use his discretionary powers in Newman’s case, Chan said ministerial discretionary powers are only used in exceptional cases and each case is considered on its own merit. Currently in Canada on a visitor’s record, Newman has started moving his family’s belongings into storage. He will fly with Jonathan on Aug. 2 to Vietnam, where

Aftermath: One person was taken to hospital with what are believed to be minor injuries following a fire at the ABC Recycling operation on Meadow Avenue in South Burnaby. According to the Burnaby fire department, the incident Wednesday morning was originally called in as an explosion in a shredding machine. By the time crews arrived, the fire was out. A representative from the company told the NOW the incident was sparked by an exploding acetylene tank. WorkSafeBC was also called to the site to investigate. PHOTO CORNELIA NAYLOR
Burnaby, Coquitlam sign deal on North Road Jeremy Deutsch
jdeutsch@burnabynow.com
For years, the cities of Burnaby and Coquitlam have shared the duties of maintaining the road that divides the two municipalities. And as a result of another agreement, the two cities will continue to share the load on North Road. Recently, council gave the thumbs-up to a new fiveyear agreement with Coquitlam to maintain the busy road as the new Evergreen Line comes to completion. According to a staff report, the agreement in general provides for 50-50 cost sharing and outlines the di-
vision of duties for maintenance for “shared” and “non-shared” facilities along North Road, including maintenance of pavement, signs, lighting, traffic signals, boulevards and medians. For shared facilities such as the landscaped traffic medians, Coquitlam will maintain them north of Cameron Street, while Burnaby will maintain them south of Cameron Street. For shared facilities such as traffic signals, road markings and special effects lighting located on the Evergreen Line guideway, there will be a 50-50 cost share. There was no indication how much the city spends annually maintaining its portion of North Road.
The report also noted the provincial government took over portions of the road in 2012 to construct the Evergreen Line. While portions of the road are currently arterial highway vested in the B.C. Transportation Financing Authority, it’s anticipated the province will revert portions of North Road back to Burnaby.The city noted once that has occurred, Burnaby and Coquitlam will adopt the agreement. Under the agreement, which has been in place since 1983, the boundary is the centre of the roadway dividing northbound from southbound traffic movement.

Opinion now OUR VIEW
Scalping campsites is just not right We probably should have written this editorial in January – because that’s when it might have helped someone. But we didn’t. So, now we, like thousands of other folks in B.C. who actually believe in fairy tales and tourism ads, thought we could book a provincial campsite before the kids go back to school. Dream on. By now most campsites are booked as the province
has moved to a virtual fulltime online reservation system. Gone are the days when you used to be able to say on a Friday morning, “Let’s go camping this weekend!” Now, you have to look at the vacation schedule in January and plan ahead – way ahead – and ensure you’re first online when reservations for your desired campsite open three months in advance. It all started decades ago
when the Liberals, then under Gordon Campbell, started enticing private developers to view the great outdoors as a Northern Disneyland to be squeezed for sparse family dollars. Large campgrounds were to have “entertainment” facilities that would make the old nature trails seem, well, boring. Folks might want to pitch a tent, but there were yurts and modern cabins to be had as well. A backlash by British
Columbians who actually thought camping was about getting away from civilization and all that it entails cooled the government’s jets a bit, but you just knew they were waiting for another time. And that time has apparently come.With a bit of a twist. Now, you just can’t get a spot in a provincial campground, so you’re forced to go to private campgrounds. We’re not saying that there
aren’t a lot of very nice private campgrounds in B.C. There are. But you can usually hear the folks in the next site snoring (to put it nicely) and, of course, there’s the corner “country” store full of everything you tried to leave behind in the city. It just isn’t the same as a “real” campground where you can hear the soft crunch of leaves underfoot when a raccoon trundles by. Before this past Canada Day long weekend, the lack
of campsites even triggered a death threat. Some businesses are “scalping” reservations for foreign campers and making a big profit off of them.This is wrong. B.C. taxpayers subsidize those campgrounds and parks and should get first dibs on them. When campsite reservations are scalped like rock concert tickets, it’s time for a better plan. Let’s fix this before someone starts tipping over outhouses.
MY VIEW FAYE CATUNGAL
Own a home? Fat chance The future of tenancy seems to be a strong likelihood for myself, along with other young adults in the Vancouver housing market. If the lack of regulation and involvement by the government continues the way it has in recent years, the housing market will continue to be dominated by foreign ownership, vacant homes, and displaced citizens and families who simply cannot afford to own a home in the Lower Mainland. Additionally, this can greatly impact the city’s economy, cultures and overall well-being. Foreign and local demand for housing has largely outweighed the supply of homes readily available for purchase. Having worked as a secretary for a real estate agent, I have witnessed bidding wars often resulting in offers that were tens of thousands of dollars over asking price. Seeing local first-time buyers lose to foreign investors in these bidding wars was a harsh representation of the overall housing market.This also intimidates many homeowners, scaring them from selling their home in fear that they cannot afford another one, which ultimately brings down the supply of homes. In basic economic terms, this lack of supply with an overwhelming amount of demand will result in price hikes for homes. Affordability becomes an issue outside of just being able to purchase a home
as well. Additionally, there is the cost of living to consider. Once you have purchased a home, how much of your income is left for food, water, heat and other essentials? How much disposable income does one have after their monthly mortgage payment to consume and feed back into the economy? That brings us to the next issue, which applies to foreign homeowners who leave their homes vacant and do not offer their home for tenancy.Without actual residents and citizens living here, there is less money to spend on local businesses and companies, which can interrupt or slow the local economy. As beautiful as this city is and as hard as it would be to leave, many might feel forced to turn to other cities.When citizens choose to move, they are taking their expertise with them, resulting in a brain drain. The truth is that we as young adults are all concerned about our future in this beautiful city. If prices continue to increase the way they have been, our chances of owning a home are quite bleak.This trend is not new. It is a pattern we have seen and observed for numerous years, yet only recently has the provincial government started to pitch potential regulations. We have seen how quickly the housing market moves. It is time we see the same urgency from the government.

What’s the real deal with Castro’s Cuba?
Endangered Burnaby turtle saved in surgery
Dear Editor It was not so long ago that the loudest local global warming denier was shooting his mouth off on a regular basis, insisting that it wasn’t happening, and never mind the science. But then 2015 was the hottest year on record, and heat waves started killing people in droves, and it became a little too hard to insist that this was all a socialist conspiracy. So what does this Mouth of Harper do for an encore? He flips the page in the Book of Untruth and copies and pastes from a new section. Time to insist that there is no poverty here, and anyway, those bad socialists over there are worse off than us. (Burnaby NOW, July 1). The working poor know what poverty means. The engineer from Korea and the lawyer from England, working as security guards for near-minimum wage, know what that’s all about. So does the guy who was working in a factory at a decent wage and is now homeless. Scratch just about anyone, and you will hear these stories. But at the same time, real estate speculators are raking in obscene amounts of money. That’s what’s going on in Canada. It’s different in Cuba, where everyone is poor. Except that, taken in context, they aren’t poor at all. The proper comparison for Cuba is other Latin American countries. In that comparison, Cuba ranks very, very well. Even compared to the First World, when considering important indicators such as literacy and infant mortality, Cuba ranks very, very well. The Cuban health-care system is world-class. But even that ignores the most important piece of information, which is the 50-year long economic blockade that Cuba has suffered. Any non-socialist country dealing with that would have collapsed long ago. As to Fidel Castro, whom some slander as a dictator, to the Cuban people he is a hero. He led them out of the actual poverty that existed under the Batista regime. He, and Che, and Raoul, et al. If he has any extra privileges, it is because the Cuban people insist that he has them. Which they do, every year, when a million people demonstrate in the streets of Havana and celebrate their government. And which they do every day, because the Cuban Revolution is still going strong, every single day. Victor Finberg, Burnaby
Time to stop helping the fossil fuel economy Dear Editor In the case of the Kinder Morgan pipeline the oil being shipped is for export to Asian markets, so the argument that we need it because we all drive cars and trucks is a hollow one. If only that crude were being refined and consumed here, the jobs created would almost have me on board. But the bigger issue is that we need to be actually impeding the flow of fossil fuels thus making them more costly to use, and encouraging the expansion of renewable energy sources. Anything we do to facilitate the fossil fuel economy is a step backward, and ultimately unsustainable, regardless of immediate environmental concerns. Charles Leduc, Vancouver

They are abused, mistreated living creature’s that people often treat as disposable. Make it a minimum fine of $1,000.00 if caught or filmed, dumping any turtle, fowl or hare. Stop killing these poor creature’s. Place them up for adoption to private parties and aquariums etc. Anyone with experience and secure habitat or large tanks. RES only bite when defending themselves or eating. Shame on you once again. Seal clubbers, bear killer’s, whalers and your other horrid carnage of wildlife! You know these hooks are harming and killing numerous creature’s. Yet you choose to let them be used. Educating the heartless zombies that hunt and fish is laughable.

Shrubs and hedges that overhang sidewalks are creating obstacles for this North Burnaby resident Jeremy Deutsch
jdeutsch@burnabynow.com
For the better part of a year, Robert Campbell has been using an electric scooter to get around his North Burnaby neighbourhood. But it’s not always easy or safe travels for the senior. Campbell’s biggest obstacle when he’s out of his house are the sidewalks. More specifically, overgrown shrubs and hedges that hang over walkways and boulevards. “It’s making it really difficult to get around because you have to go close to the edge of the curb,” he told the NOW. “I’ve actually almost fallen off my scooter once already.” Campbell, who lives on Duthie Avenue, noted in one spot a hedge has grown all the way to a signpost, forcing him to go between the two obstacles, scratching up his scooter. Frustrated by his predicament, he’s asking for the city to step in to deal with the problem. Campbell said he’d like to see some sort of bylaw that would prohibit property owners from allowing their plants to in-
fringe on the sidewalk. He also said he’s called the city about the issue the last month but hasn’t gotten anywhere, and he wanted to reach out to the media to get some help. “It’s been an issue, especially when it’s on streets I travel on regularly,” he said, adding there are other people in the community with mobility issues struggling with the same problem. It appears the city is well aware of the issue.
Sidewalks were installed for safe passage of pedestrians
Sheryl Pordan, a traffic assistant with the city, said the municipality receives complaints about overgrown hedges on a weekly basis, adding the busiest time for complaints is during the spring and summer. She said the city responds on a per-complaint basis and will go out to the sidewalk, take a picture, send a
letter to the property owner and tell them to cut whatever is overhanging back behind the sidewalk by one or two feet. She added the city will give the homeowner a couple weeks to do the work, and if they don’t, crews will go out and cut it back. Pordan explained that it’s up to property owners to maintain the boulevard in front of their house, and in most cases the problem comes from something the owner has planted on the city’s boulevard. She’s said it’s important the sidewalks are kept clear for people with mobility issues, adding anyone with problems can call the city and let them know. “Sidewalks were installed for safe passage of pedestrians, not for people to have their trees and everything growing over them,” Pordan said. She also noted the city is working on strengthening the current bylaw that would make homeowners responsible for cutting and maintaining the boulevard. COMMENT ON THIS STORY

Foodies can now map out their meal plan for Taco Fest 2016 as a complete list of on-site vendors has just been announced. The lineup of food vendors features 13 local businesses: El Cartel Food Truck;The Fish Shack by Glowbal Group; Holi Masala food truck;Vera’s Burger Shack food truck; Lux Lounge Juana’s Original Mexican;The Cannibal Café; Falconetti’s East Side Grill; Lemmy Lemonade; AQUA juice cart; Say Hello Sweets ice cream truck; Hugs by Mollie’s Minis donut truck; Johnny’s Pops bike cart and International Flavours popsicle cart. In addition to exposing attendees to a vast selection of taco options, festival organizer Johnny Matter hopes the festival will help give back to one of its sponsors, the Greater Vancouver
Food Bank. He encourages everyone who attends to donate a canned food item to the organization. “Summer is a dry time for them, people aren’t really donating that much,” said
I created this event to showcase unsigned bands to a mass, tacoloving audience
Matter. “One of the things they’re looking for are cans of beans and I thought, you can make tacos with beans. It’s not a big investment, and if everyone brings a can of beans, then everyone could have tacos.” The festival will also feature a selection of mer-
chants, including Jung & Walker Hot Sauce, Oona Clothing Company, Bazar “Montalvo” clothing, Simply Neglectable and Forest Spirit Creations. Ten hours of live music will accompany diners, with 20 bands taking the stage from noon to 10 p.m. “There’s no real headliner. All the artists are local and I created this event to showcase unsigned bands to a mass, taco-loving audience, to kind of marry the two ideas,” said Matter. Taco Fest 2016 happens Saturday, July 16 at Swangard Stadium, 3883 Imperial St. Advance tickets can be purchased at www.picatic. com/tacofest for $15.76, with the option to make an additional $1 donation to the Greater Vancouver Food Bank.

Residents of the Burnaby North-Seymour riding can now meet with their local MP, even when he’s in Ottawa. Liberal MP Terry Beech is the first MP to set up video conferencing between his constituency office and his parliamentary office in the nation’s capital.That means he can virtually meet with constituents while on business in Ottawa. “We were the first office in Canada to have this technology implemented and set up,” Beech said. “Now a whole bunch of MP offices are adding these to their offices.” Beech said he had to get some parliamentary policies changed before moving ahead with video conferencing. So far, he’s had several people use it. “I had one constituent who really wanted to have a face-to-face before the medical assistance and dying debate concluded. He was able to come into our boardroom and have that meeting,” Beech said. He’s also video-conferenced with a university pro-

Ready to rumble: From left: Caleb Lagayan, Damon Jang and Kai Bradbury are all Burnaby residents, and they’re all part of the Sharks gang for the Theatre Under the Stars production of West Side Story. The classic musical is running at Malkin Bowl at Stanley Park, alternating nights with Beauty and the Beast, from July 13 to Aug. 20. There are two more preview performances July 9 and 11.

TUTS gives classic a contemporary edge
Themes of discrimination and violence still resonate for young performers, nearly six decades afterWest Side Story was written Julie MacLellan
jmaclellan@burnabynow.com
Discrimination. Intolerance.Violence. They were themes taken from the headlines nearly 60 years ago, when Arthur Laurents penned what was to become one of the classic musicals of all time. They are themes that, sadly, still resonate in the world today – and that’s one of the reasons why Caleb Lagayan, Kai Bradbury and Damon Jang are looking forward to taking to the stage in the Theatre Under the Stars production of West Side Story this summer. West Side Story opened in preview this week, with its official opening set for July 13. Lagayan, Bradbury and Jang are all from Burnaby, and all three appear as members of the Sharks, the Puerto Rican gang that faces off against the white Jets in the Romeo & Juliet story set in 1950s NewYork City. The musical – with music by Leonard Bernstein, lyrics by Stephen Sondheim and choreography by Jerome Robbins – is best known by most audience members from the hit 1961 film. But if the movie and its classic dancing, finger-snapping gang members are what you picture when you think of West Side Story,
then think again. “West Side is quite different from how people remember it being,” says Bradbury, noting that most people just seem to remember it as “two gangs dancing.” “It has so much more depth than that.The story is more relevant now than it was in the ’50s.”
Get your tix West Side Story runs at Malkin Bowl, Stanley Park from July 13 to Aug. 20, with previews July 9 and 11. It alternates with Beauty and the Beast in the outdoor theatre. Tickets start at $30 for the regular run, or $20 for the previews. See www. tuts.ca for all the information.
He notes the plot of the film was taken straight out of the real headlines following a gang murder in 1950s NewYork City. “It was fresh off the headlines then and definitely it feels like it is now, still,” he says. Jang agrees, noting that this version ofWest Side Story, as envisioned by director Sarah Rodgers, will be different than audiences have seen before. “It’s darker, grittier, not as clean,” he says. “It leaves the audience with a feeling
of loss.” Jang says that, even in rehearsal, the power of the rumble and death scenes isn’t lost on the performers. “I am holding my breath, I’m literally shocked and emotionally impacted by the work everyone is doing,” he says. Jang says a big difference for audiences will be the choreography by Tara Cheyenne Friedenberg, with an emphasis on contemporary and modern lines – all rooted in research into lesserknown forms of street dance that appeared in NewYork City in the 1950s. “This will appeal to a much wider generation of dance artists,” Jang says. “It feels different, it’s got a street feel.” All three are grateful for the chance to appear in a classic like West Side Story. “The music is fantastic,” Bradbury points out. “Everyone knows I Feel Pretty, everyone knows the Jet Song,America, Maria,Tonight … At rehearsal sometimes, I pinch myself. I think, ‘Wow, are we really singing this song?’ It’s so special.” The 22-year-old actor is thrilled to be working with TUTS – which he calls “kind of a dream” for musical theatre performers in that it has the luxury of an
extended rehearsal period for a professional-quality show. For Lagayan, appearing on the TUTS stage is eye-opening.The 18-yearold, who has just finished up his first year in the musical theatre program at Capilano University, points out TUTS offers a chance to work alongside and learn from performers with much more experience. Among those performers is Jang – the “veteran” of the Sharks at the age of 30 – who has served as a community theatre instructor and choreographer at Byrne Creek Secondary, where Lagayan went to school. Now onstage in his third TUTS production, Jang makes his way in the theatre world by taking on a whole host of roles – directing, teaching and performing are just a small part of what he’s done, alongside choreography, publicity, arts administration and backstage work. He particularly appreciates TUTS, he says, because actors who have other skills are encouraged to bring those skills to the table – the performer appearing as Bernardo (Alen Dominguez) is also an assistant director; another performer with acrobatic skills has a chance to incorporate those into the gang choreography. And

Rodgers, when coming up with her overall vision for the show, gave each actor a chance to share their own vision for their character’s look and costuming. “In addition to performing, we get to have our own ideas represented,” Jang notes. While each of the three is immersed in bringing to life the nuances of his own character – Jang appears as the frenetic Anxious; Lagayan is the young and naïve
Indio; and Bradbury is the gang leader’s right-hand man, Chino – they say the audience will be left impressed by every aspect of the production, from the sets and costumes to the dancing, singing and acting. “It’s truly a piece of art,” says Jang. “Get ready,” adds Lagayan, “because this is not something you’re going to see coming. It’s definitely going to be something very different.”

Endangered turtle in recovery after surgery
Jennifer Moreau
jmoreau@burnabynow.com
A Lower Mainland veterinarian has a message for the public after performing emergency surgery on a Western painted turtle from Burnaby Lake: barbed fishing hooks and endangered turtles don’t mix. Adrian Walton of Dewdney Animal Hospital removed a barbed fish hook that was lodged in the esophagus of a Western painted turtle that belonged to a breeding program at the lake. “The first thing is barbed hooks are just evil.They don’t just deal with fish, they also get into turtles, ducks, geese – any type of wildlife,”Walton told the NOW. “Even if the line snaps, they’ll just follow it along and get the hooks in that way.” Walton said he gets two to three turtles with fish hooks per year.The red-eared sliders are euthanized, since they are usually dumped
pets and are an invasive species, but Walton will do what he can to save the redlisted Western painted turtles. This particular turtle had a large number eight painted on its shell so biologists could identify the breeding female.To make matters worse, the X-ray showed this turtle had a second hook in its system. According to B.C. regulations, fishing with barbed hooks in Burnaby Lake is permitted, although any kind of fishing in the tributaries or streams is prohibited. Hannah Nieman, chair of the Burnaby Lake Park Association, said fishing lines can cause problems for all kinds of wildlife, and the group wants to mark offlimit waterways with nofishing signs. “We definitely want to let the fishing community know they’re not supposed to be fishing in these areas,” she said. “Tributaries are important habitat for salm-
on and endangered turtles.” As for the red-eared sliders,Walton urged the public not to buy them as pets. “(They) are horrible, horrible pets that nobody wants when they are full sized. They are the size of a dinner plate and nasty and smelly and stinky and mean,”Walton said. “This is coming from a guy who loves reptiles.” The No. 8 turtle is now in the care of the Coastal Painted Turtle Project, a group of biologists monitoring the Lower Mainland’s Western painted turtles. She passed the second fish hook and is eating and recovering. She will eventually be released back in the wild. The Coastal Painted Turtle Project is in talks with Metro Vancouver to ban fishing in a portion of the Brunette River between the Cariboo Dam and a nearby turtle nesting beach.The biologists have successfully negotiated fishing bans in three other parks.

Communitynow SFU grad opens new poké bar on Burnaby Mountain By Tanya Commisso
editorial@burnabynow.com
An SFU grad is bringing a taste of Hawaii to Burnaby Mountain this fall with the city’s first poké bar. Camy Wong decided to get into the poké business after noticing a limited selection of food options for SFU students beyond the typical chain fare of Tim Hortons or Subway. “It takes a lot of time to leave the mountain, so a lot of students aren’t going to commute down the mountain just to grab food,” she said.The restaurant will be located in the Cornerstone building near SFU’s upper bus loop.Wong believes Poké Bar will provide a “unique and healthy alternative” to the food currently
offered on campus. Poké is a traditional Hawaiian food consisting of sliced raw fish marinated in Asian sauces and seasonings.This fish salad is often served over rice and can be likened to Japanese sashimi. However, according to Wong, the variety of sauces are what sets poké apart from sushi dishes. Steve Huynh,Wong’s fiancé, will be preparing the restaurant’s poké bowls – many of which will be custom spins on traditional Hawaiian poké, made according to the diner’s tastes and preferences.Wong and Huynh have eaten poké straight from its cultural source, as much of Huynh’s family lives in Hawaii and the couple visits often. “We’re going to try to get
it as authentic as possible but fit the needs of people here,” said Wong. Poké Bar’s build-yourown-bowl option will give foodies a chance to try poké without venturing too far outside of their comfort zone.The restaurant is in the midst of finalizing its menu and is looking into offering special deals for students.Wong hopes the absence of poké restaurants in the city will draw in people who wouldn’t otherwise have cause to visit SFU Burnaby. “If we have Hawaiian poké, because there’s nothing in Burnaby, we’re going to bring in guests that normally wouldn’t travel up the mountain,” she said. For updates on the restaurant, visit www.facebook. com/pokebar.van.
New restaurant: Camy Wong has opened the city’s first poké restaurant on Burnaby Mountain. Poké is a kind of Hawaiian dish made from raw, marinated fish.

9, were ready to hit the books on the first day of school in September 1986 – even if their school wasn’t quite ready. Workers were still scrambling to put the finishing touches on the new school at the foot of Burnaby Mountain in early September. At the time, Forest Grove was the Burnaby school district’s first new school in 10 years. PHOTO NOW ARCHIVES morreyinfiniti.com

Alice Mirhady took the digital version of the NOW on a trip to Montmorency Falls in Quebec and stopped at Ben & Jerry’s ice cream factory in Waterbury, Vermont. Left, Burnaby NOW reporter Jennifer Moreau took the paper on her cycling tour of Sicily and stopped at the memorial home of Peppino Impastato and his mother Felicia in the small, seaside town of Cinisi. Peppino boldy criticized the town’s mafia on his pirate radio station until they killed him in 1978.
Globetrotters Tom and Susana Wong took the NOW to the Old Town in Krakow, Poland. Want to be featured in Paper Postcards? Email your travel pics with our newspaper to postcards@ burnabynow.com.

BLOCK PARTY
WHAT IS IT? A free block party in the Cariboo Heights neighbourhood, hosted by Rosanna and Jonathan Chan on Saturday, July 23, from 5 to 8 p.m. in the east cul-de-sac in front of Lakepark Village at 8580 Cumberland Pl. Highlights include: Free hotdogs with a halal chicken dog option, popcorn, face painting, balloons, games, a bouncy castle, refreshments and mingling with neighbours. It’s a potluck, so bring a dish to share. Cutlery and plates
will be provided. WHY YOU CAN’T MISS IT: The Vancouver Foundation conducted a well-known study in 2011 and found the most pressing concern among Lower Mainland residents was a growing sense of isolation. When you get out and meet your neighbours, you contribute to a sense of belonging and your own well-being. WHO’S COMING: Local businesses and representatives from the
police and fire department have been invited, and there will be a police car and fire truck on site. Burnaby MLA Jane Shin and MP Peter Julian should be there, too. WHO’S PITCHING IN: The Burnaby Neighbourhood House is supplying the hot dogs and drinks. Shin is providing a bouncy castle, face painting, balloons and games, and Julian is supplying a popcorn machine. Choices Market is donating gift certificates for the draw prize. TO SIGN UP: RSVP at www. cumberlandplaceparty. eventbrite.ca or call 778-773-2552 or email jonathanlkchan@me.com.
The July 23 Cariboo Heights block party will have facepainting and a bouncy castle for the kids. PHOTO: Thinkstock

IN THE KITCHEN editorial@burnabynow.com
This soup is vibrant in colour and very flavourful. I love the fresh taste of the lemon and cilantro stirred in at the end of cooking just before serving. I enjoy how fast this soup is to make, and it has many nutritional benefits. To make the soup completely vegetarian, just use vegetable stock instead of chicken. Ingredients 1 large onion, roughly chopped 2 garlic cloves, crushed 1 tsp ground coriander 2 tsp ground cumin 1 tsp chili powder 600g orange yam, peeled, diced 500g carrots, peeled, sliced 6 cup chicken stock 300g can of chickpeas, drained, rinsed 3 tsp of olive oil
A vibrant destination Shopping Centre in South Burnaby, well known for its fashion, housewares and food deals.

Playoff intensity: The Burnaby Lakers and New Westminster Salmonbellies locked sticks in peewee C lacrosse playoffs last week. The visiting Lakers emerged with a 12-5 victory.

Burnaby quartet pick up the Czech for Express Dan Olson

When you’re called the West Coast Express, you expect a quick trip to reach your destination – and if you happen to be a hockey team, you do it with flair. Unlike the old Vancouver Canucks line, this hockey team got the job done on the floor. The Express, a collection of 20 under-15 B.C. ball hockey players, motored through the competition at last month’s Plzen Cup in the Czech Republic and bagged a title. The team, which includes four Burnaby players, dominated the tourney but had a few close calls – including the final where a late penalty provided an element of urgency but was solved by a lastsecond insurance goal. “I knew going in to this tourney we had a strong team on the floor and off the floor,” remarked coach and organizer Gary Slavin, who has made 10 trips to the Czech Republic for ball hockey tournaments. “Respect, dignity and focus was seen with every player. As
many of my groups overseas have been from u16 right up to master men’s, this was the first u15 team taken over and I was very happy with the entire trip from both players and parents.” The Canadians outlasted the host Plzen HBC 3-1 in the final, successfully killing a penalty during the final minutes when only one goal separated the teams.The last goal was scored by Burnaby’s Kaiden Johnson, who beat the buzzer with an empty-net marker. For the players, the journey that ended in a championship unfolded almost like a dream. “The highlight (of) the trip for me was just being around the team both on and off the floor,” said forward Trevor O’Reilly, a Burnaby North Grade 9 student. “The whole experience was amazing and by the end of the trip I felt like I had known my teammates for years.The best time had to be the gold medal game when we won and the whole team went crazy when the final buzzer went.” The win was a product of team toil, sweat and determination.
Getting to the final saw the Express reel off five games in less than 48 hours, trumping Plzen HBC 3-1 in the opener, the Czech national squad 10-0, and 4-1 over the Slovakian Gajary Flames. They wrapped up the round robin with a 4-0 win over TJ Blatna, setting the stage for a rematch with Plzen. All four Burnaby players – Dante Ballarin, Daniel Juca, Johnson and O’Reilly – made major contributions. As the team was selected in March and been playing together since April, team chemistry was critical. All the pieces fell into place quickly, said Slavin. “Our Burnaby players were great leaders in communication with other players and one was recognized for that as we named Dante Ballarin as one of our assistant captains,” he said. “Dante was one of our top defenseman on both sides of the ball. Kaiden and Trevor were great in the goal scoring department and Daniel is a solid set-up winger and played the first power play line.Their style of play easily was adapted to the style
of play that is needed overseas.” became clear.

Provincials on top
The wait is over. The provincial A soccer championships are on the field, and four Burnaby District Metro Soccer teams are in the thick of it, with all action at Burnaby Lake West complex. The Coastal Cup champion under-13 boys team kicked off the tournament yesterday against SurreyGuildford (past the NOW’s deadline), and play North Vancouver today (Friday) and finish the round-robin Saturday, 1 p.m. on Field 4 against Delta Coastal. The long layoff since the Coastal tournament has played havoc with most teams, and the u13 Burnaby side was no exception. “It’s been a learning curve since the last of the Coastal Cup,” said coach Matt
Manfredi, noting his team has played three friendlies. “Our team is ready for the tournament.We have a great bunch of motivated players, they are committed (and) devoted to play.” In boys u15, Burnaby opened with a 1-1 tie with Port Moody on Thursday, plays Bays United today, and takes on Kamloops, 9 a.m. Saturday on Field 4. In their fifth straight A provincials, the Burnaby u18 Lakers began yesterday against Central City and face Kamloops today and plays Juan de Fuca on Saturday, 1 p.m. on Field 3. On the girls side, Burnaby’s u18 squad played North Shore yesterday, takes on Saanich today, and Prince George on Saturday, 3 p.m. on Field 5.

The Burnaby Lakers returned from Vancouver Island with the peewee girls provincial lacrosse silver medal.

The hype around this first game was immense, and we ended up winning (3-1 over host Plzen). Because it was my first ball hockey game not played in Canada, and because I had been waiting for that moment for months, it has to be the highlight of my trip.” All four Burnaby players are sticking together to represent B.C., as well as nine other members from the Express, for the upcoming nationals. Slavin said the u15 trip went so well, plans are already being made for a repeat trip. Coaches, players and parents interested in learning more about it can contact him at gslavin31@ gmail.com.
