Alberta’s Notley draws line in the oil battle

Mayor Corrigan says:‘She’s absolutely disinterested in any of the impacts it might have on our community’ By Tereza Verenca

British Columbia will face consequences for its ban on increased shipments of diluted bitumen, according to Alberta’s premier. Rachel Notley called an emergency cabinet meeting on Wednes-

day, one day after the B.C. government announced new regulations to curb oil spills. The measures, which include placing limits on “dilbit” transports until further studies are done, could potentially hinder Kinder Morgan’s $7.4-billion Trans Mountain expansion proj-

ment,” said Notley. “The Government of Alberta will not – we cannot – let this unconstitutional attack on jobs and working people stand.” She said there need to be consequences and that her cabinet will be considering economic and legal options.

Newsnow CARIBOO ROAD CROSSWALK

Was a traffic light already in the plan? According to city councillor Pietro Calendino it was, but there’s little evidence to support that claim By Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

When it comes to how much work the City of Burnaby had done to address safety concerns at a Cariboo Road crosswalk before a 15-year-old pedestrian was killed there, it depends on who you ask. Coun. Pietro Calendino, chair of the city’s public safety committee, said engineering staff have been working for months on solutions – including a full traffic light. “This is to ask council permission for funding the actual full traffic light that staff had been asking and working on for the last three months,” said Calendino at a council meeting Monday while introducing a staff recommendation for a full $450,000 traffic light at the crosswalk. Last week, when the city announced it was installing a pedestrian-controlled flashing light at the cross-walk after three crashes there in four days, Calendino told the NOW the light had been one of a number of improvements staff had been working on. “Staff was already working on those items, and they were going to come to us soon anyway, so the only thing we did is just advance it for a week or two,” he said. All of that was news to Alexander John, comptroller at Cariboo Road Christian Fellowship, a

church by the crosswalk. Church member Bill Schulz had written a letter in July calling for a light at the crosswalk because of safety concerns. Schulz and John weren’t satisfied with a report in November, four months later, that recommended speed control measures in the area and changes to the intersection of Cariboo Road and Cariboo Drive, 140 south of the crosswalk. That report had determined traffic and pedestrian counts conducted at the crosswalk in October showed the crossing didn’t warrant a light. During communications with the city’s engineering department after that, John had been told staff planned to take another look at the crosswalk sometime in 2018, but there was no indication the city was taking any more specifics steps in the interim, he said. “Why wouldn’t we know otherwise if they were going to do a light?” John said. “They would have to communicate that, say ‘Hey, you know what, we’re working on this light or something that we’re talking about.’ I didn’t get any kind of communication if staff were doing that or working toward that.” When a mom at the nearby Cariboo Hill child-care centre called for a light at the cross-

walk as late as Dec. 5, the city’s response didn’t indicate the city was working on a specific solution then either. “A recent review found that a traffic signal was not warrant-

ed due to the very low volume of pedestrians and vehicles crossing the roadway. However, we will try to obtain the details of the recent crash from the RCMP to gain a better understanding of the cir-

cumstances and to determine if any changes need to be made to enhance safety,” stated a Dec. 6 email from assistant director of Continued on page 5

‘QUICK-WINS’ SCANDAL

Judge says Bonney should have said ‘no’ Brian Bonney given nine-month house arrest By Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

Burnaby’s Brian Bonney would have been better off getting fired for saying “no” to higher ups directing him in the B.C. Liberals’ so-called “quick-wins” plan than to end up where he did, according to a provincial court judge who handed him a nine-month conditional sentence Wednesday. Bonney, a former government communications director and a former director of the B.C. Liberal Party, pleaded guilty in October to breach of trust for using government resources for partisan purposes in relation

to the Liberals’ multicultural strategic outreach plan to target key ethnic groups in swing ridings ahead of the 2013 provincial election. Between Oct. 16, 2011 and Dec. 31, 2012 – while he was the communications director for the multiculturalism branch under Minister of State for Multiculturalism Harry Bloy, MLA for Burnaby-Lougheed, and later under Minister Responsible for Multiculturalism JohnYap – Bonney spent time at his government job directing Liberal outreach workers to woo key ethnic groups in swing ridings in an effort to tip the scales in favour of the Liber-

als during the election. During that work, he also shared confidential government information with people not authorized to receive it. At sentencing, defence lawyer Ian Donaldson urged judge David St. Pierre to consider the context of Bonney’s actions, arguing Bonney was “the instrument of others.” Donaldson said Bonney got direction from a number of “bosses,” including staff in the premier’s office, two cabinet ministers and people in the Liberal party caucus, and they failed to Continued on page 5

City now Bonney gets nine months

Continued from page 3 make clear to him the line between government, caucus and Liberal party work that were appropriate for him to engage in. St. Pierre, however, said public servants have a responsibility to carry out their work impartially, regardless of direction from ministers and political staff. “The message in this case that needs to be passed on to other public servants in similar situations is that there might well be unfair and undeserved employment consequences for saying ‘No, minister’ but those consequences, I hope you agree, pale in comparison to what you’re having to go through,” he said to Bonney. St. Pierre acknowledged Bonney was not the architect of the quick-wins plan but said he chose to employ unethical and illegal means to carry it out.That Bonney knew some of his activities were “offside” and that he tried to keep them secret is

clear from emails he wrote, according to St. Pierre. In one email to a multicultural outreach worker, Bonney described the work as a “very tricky game.” “Much has been said in this case regarding the blurred lines between duties and activities of government office employed staff,” St. Pierre said. “This is not a case of confusion in my mind in where those lines

This is not a case of confusion in my mind …

should be drawn in this particular case.” It was clear from the evidence Bonney’s motivation for using government resources for partisan purposes was not to gain a personal or financial benefit, according to St. Pierre, but “the clandestine, partial and dis-

honest means” he used in attempting to give the Liberal party an advantage were a form of political corruption nonetheless, he said. “Those cynics that disbelieve that government actually works for the benefit of the people and not themselves are richly rewarded when this type of story emerges,” St. Pierre said. “Their ranks increase. That alone is a serious problem for society. All citizens have the right to trust that our public servants work for all of them and not just for those who check off the right box on the ballot.” Under the conditions of his nine-month sentence, Bonney will be subject to a curfew and have to complete 60 hours of community work service. Special Crown prosecutor David Butcher had called for a 12- to 23-month conditional sentence, while the defence argued for a suspended sentence and probation.

‘We were going to look at it in 2018,’ says city engineer Continued from page 3 engineering Doug Louie. Louie told the NOW the crosswalk file had been kept open, but no specific solutions had been developed before the fatal accident. “We knew there was ongoing concerns with the crosswalk, and I heard of some crashes … and we were thinking we might need to do something else,” Louie said. “So it was still active. We were going to look at it in 2018.” When asked whether staff had, in fact, been working on a full pedestrian light for three months before last month’s fatal crash – as per his statement at Monday’s council meeting – Calendi-

no said: “Maybe the three months may not be the exact period of time, but they were asked to work on it.” But if councillors or any other member of the public safety committee directed staff to look into a full traffic light or any other specific safety enhancements for the crosswalk before the fatal crash, there is no mention of them in the minutes of November’s public safety committee meeting. The minutes, in fact, don’t mention the crosswalk at all but focus on the report about the Cariboo Road-Cariboo Drive intersection. “The committee em-

phasized the importance of continuing to monitor the area for traffic volume,” state the minutes. “Staff advised they are considering measures that could be implemented in a long term.” Calendino said directions to staff about safety improvements to the crosswalk “may not be in the record,” but they were made nonetheless. “My position is that we had asked staff in November to continue looking at other solutions for the crosswalk, so maybe we made some assumptions, but our assumption is that leaving the crosswalk as it was not what we wanted.”

Opinion now OUR VIEW

Take ICBC to the junkyard and start over OK – remember that scene in The French Connection? One of the great movie car races. Now think about ICBC and the NDP.We’re about to start that race if the NDP doesn’t wake up and smell the burning rubber right now. The Liberals fouled up the whole ICBC situation.They kept kicking the can into the next year of their 16-year reign, assuming some ICBC magic fairy would fix things for

them. Or, more likely, how to blame the whole mess on the previous NDP government – which would be very hard to do, but not out of character in politics. But they lost. So, now they’re trying to blame the NDP for not fixing the mess in their first six months of government. And it’s a very big mess – a $1.3 billion-inthe-red mess. No one’s buying their attempts to blame the NDP.Well, perhaps some diehard Liberal fans

are buying it – but no one else is. So, what’s the NDP to do? Raise rates and tweak things and push the whole thing over to next year, like the Liberals did? Sorry, that’s already been tried. That’s where our car race analogy comes in. Once the NDP starts driving with this bunch of empty tin cans tied to their bumper, they are doomed. And so are the taxpayers who pay for ICBC.

There is only one exit ramp here and the NDP needs to take it as quickly as they can. The NDP needs to develop a plan to dissolve ICBC as soon as possible and institute a private system of vehicle insurance as many provinces in Canada have done. Yes, it will be messy.Yes, the unions who have members working in ICBC will be displeased.Yes, it may take a couple of years to ful-

ly finish the job. And, yes, ICBC needs to be completely gone – not left as part of a subsidized portion of the new system. For those in the NDP who see killing ICBC as giving in to the age-old argument that private enterprise can operate services more efficiently than government – just get over it.This is not that hill to die on. This is not health care. This is a lesson in private enterprisers who were in

government who could not manage the operation. It’s a tale of lawyers who became attached to a never-ending bucket of business. It is also recognition that cars, like phones, have now become very expensive to repair. So expensive that it’s easier to junk them than fix them. The NDP needs to fix the mess it inherited. And there is only one way to do that, uncomfortable as it is. And the sooner the better.

MY VIEW PAT TRACY

They have forgotten why we elected them Tragedies often bring out the worst in people, and the best. That can be said of bureaucracies and politicians as well. The death of a young woman in this city revealed the bureaucratic process that determines if, and when, the city acts on pedestrian safety. It exposed the system’s fallibility. It also exposed how politicians who have spent decades in elected office can forget why we elect them. Our stories on the Cariboo Road crosswalk during the last two weeks remind me of when I was a young reporter and covered fatal accidents – accidents that often could have been prevented. The response from those in elected positions followed a pattern: Excuse. Stall. Misdirect. Rewrite history. Blame staff. And then, finally, act. Part of the reason for this behaviour is legal. Lawyers have trained politicians to avoid saying anything that could be used against the city in court. Part of it is learned. Politicians who admit that something could have been done better on their watch often have their words used against them in future campaign battles. Honesty is not always rewarded in elections. But, to be fair, sometimes there were politicians who stepped up to the plate and acknowledged that somewhere something went wrong, and they needed to find out how to fix it and make sure it never happened again.

But we haven’t seen this in the Cariboo Road case – yet. What we are seeing and hearing from politicians is repeated efforts to justify a system that relied on twoyear-old ICBC stats and gave short shrift to citizens’ calls for action. We are seeing evasion at the very least. Prevarication is more like it. A neighbour, who had written to city hall, told us, “I felt responsible (after the girl’s death) quite honestly, because I didn’t push more, because I thought, ‘Oh, they are the engineers; they do know; maybe I should listen,’ and that’s where I left it in December.” That statement should have shaken city councillors to their cores. But we doubt that it did. Pietro Calendino, chair of the city’s public safety committee, told those at the meeting on Jan. 23: “We are a public council and a public committee operating on behalf of all citizens. We have processes to follow, and those processes take time.The processes are put in place so that we as councillors or staff as paid employees do not favour any area of the city over any others and that we treat everybody with respect, with dignity and with no sign of favouritism to anybody.” “Favouritism.” I don’t think the neighbours who repeatedly tried to alert city council to the dangers of that crosswalk were asking for favouritism. They were doing their civic Continued on page 7

Fish guts nearly fatal to gulls

A tasty treat proved nearly fatal for a flock of seagulls in December.Twenty-four gulls were brought to the Wildlife Rescue Association for clean-up after they tried to feed on a discarded pail of fish guts and pieces. “The oil ruins their waterproofing and they end up getting cold and hypothermia,” said Susan Herunter.The centre cleaned the birds using the same procedure it would use for birds caught in an oil spill. Because fish oil isn’t toxic, though, the “thin and scruffy” birds were OK to wait their turn.

Opinionnow ‘Process’ isn’t enough

Continued from page 6 duty.They were hoping to save lives. Did any city councillors go down to that street and check it out with neighbours when it wasn’t daylight? Would that have been “favouritism”? It doesn’t take statistics to prove that that crosswalk was dramatically unsafe. If you drive on that road, you know that crosswalk is unsafe.The fact is that is it was pure luck that someone wasn’t killed sooner. Using statistics to justify inaction actually masked the danger. We elect people not to just follow rule books and make sure everybody else follows them; we elect people because we hope those people care enough to make a difference.That they give a damn. And, that, in fact, they are willing to really listen to people who are repeatedly waving red flags. Politicians are not elected to dole out safety measures as if they are special favours.To rubber stamp staff reports and justify their existence. Perhaps I’m being overly harsh, but after reading the comment from Mayor Derek Corrigan about not being “reactive” after the death and listening to Calendino’s interview with Gloria Macarenko on CBC Jan. 22, I was struck by the repeated reliance on the “process.” As Calendino told Macarenko, “we don’t want to deviate from the process.” At least Corrigan changed his stance

in a later interview, saying that even though the crosswalk “didn’t meet appropriate warrants … it’s very important that we recognize the reality of the situation.” The reality, unfortunately, is that the “process” gave more weight to stale fender-bender stats from ICBC than personal on-the-scene accounts from neighbours. The reality is that this death might have been preventable had politicians been representing people’s real concerns and not relying on statistics. If one politician had tried to cross that street at night in the rain and stared into the headlights of an oncoming car barrelling down the hill, I think there would have been a light up there much sooner.There is something very, very, wrong with relying on the “process” as the main definer of action or inaction where people’s very lives are at risk. If Burnaby’s elected officials can’t see that their job, after a citizen under their watch loses their life, involves a lot more than defending the status quo “process,” then we have a huge problem.The “process” doesn’t need more reinforcing and justification. What this tragic event should trigger is a complete review of the process. If the elected officials were doing their jobs, that’s what they would call for. But perhaps they’ve just been in office too long to notice the difference between process and people. Pat Tracy is the editor of the Burnaby NOW and NewWestminster Record.

‘We will not waver in this fight’ Continued from page 1 everything within our power to defend our jobs and our economic security, and we will not waver in this fight.” Scott Moe, Saskatchewan’s newly elected premier, also weighed in.

Liberals. “They just rubber stamped whatever the federal government said and left this gaping hole in regard to the knowledge that was required to protect the environment,” Corrigan said. “These are all things that are being done to try to make sure that British Columbia is looking after British Columbia throughout this process.” Trans Mountain did not provide comment when asked if the province’s new measures will further delay the pipeline expansion project. Due to permitting issues and other setbacks, the original in-service date of December 2019 has moved to December 2020. Meanwhile, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said this week, in multiple inter-

BOOK CHATTING

WHAT’S UP? The Burnaby Public Library is hosting a new event for Valentine’s Day: Literary Friends Speed Chatting. WHEN AND WHERE? The event is set for Wednesday, Feb. 14, 7 to 8:30 p.m. at the Cameron Recreation Centre, 9523 Cameron St., in the Juniper Room (across the hall from the Cameron library branch). WHAT’S IT ALL ABOUT? It’s like speed dating – but with books, and without the dating. It’s open to everyone aged 17 and up. Bring two of your favourite books, or movies based on books, and be prepared to talk about them with a new friend. You’ll have five minutes to

chat with each person in the room about your favourites and theirs; everyone will have a turn to chat with every other person. A librarian will host the event and be on hand to help place holds on any of the recommended reads. Light refreshments will be served. HOW DO I GET INVOLVED? It’s free. But you do have to sign up ahead, because space is limited to 12 participants. Register at www.bpl.bc.ca/ events, call 604-421-5454 or drop in to the Cameron library branch to sign up. – Julie MacLellan

Marathon win gives Wildcats momentum By Dan Olson

dolson@burnabynow.com

If Les Miserables novelist Victor Hugo was ever called upon to write a basketball story – that is, if basketball was a thing in 19thcentury Paris – it probably would have been something close to what the Burnaby Central Wildcats and Moscrop Panthers endured on Monday. The two Burnaby-New West senior girls league rivals went the distance, and then some, in a marathon tilt that gave a fresh meaning to the phrase “buzzer beater.” Both teams busted out their long games in a virtual endurance race that ended 8988 for Burnaby Central, requiring four overtime periods to sift a winner. It could also sum up the Wildcats’ season to date – fun to watch, but with its share of cliffhangers. “We came out flat (Monday). Not our best performance, and Moscrop came out strong,” said Central co-coach Chris Ducharme. “We basically played the game from behind from the get-go. Down almost 18 points at one point.We clawed our way back into the game. Down by six with one minute in regulation.” It took a pair of long-range missiles to extend the game, with Jalynne Huynh hitting the first buzzer-beater to make it 6969 and force overtime. Later it was a Wildcats lead, 73-71 nearing the final minute of the second extra session, that wouldn’t stand up. Both teams had their chances in OT, with Moscrop surging ahead by six in the second extra period. Huynh connected for another at-the-buzzer three pointer to push it to another frame, and Jayden Pineda counted another trey as the third OT ended to keep the Wildcats alive. In the fourth extra session, Huynh provided the winning shot, much to the relief of the volunteer scorekeepers and referees. Moscrop got an incredible effort from Pinar Kahraman, who finished with 49 points, including seven treys. Huynh would tally 45 points, matching Kahraman with seven three-pointers. Central returned to the gym on Wednes-

day and capped the regular season with a 75-41 victory over Byrne Creek, getting 33 points from Huynh and 13 from Krystal Mendoza in a win that clinched second place behind undefeated New Westminster. At 6-1, the Wildcats look at the playoffs as a chance to garner more experience and apply the lessons learned this season. “I think the most significant development is they understand how important the little things are to our goal of a provincial berth, because the difference between winning and losing, ultimately for us, are the little things.” Led by a pair of seniors – Mendoza, averaging14 points per game, and Pineda, a defensive dynamo with five steals a night – the squad has made impressive inroads in the midlands of the senior circuit. It’s also benefited from the play of Grade 11 leaders like Huynh, who averages 25 points a game, and Beth Lim, who contributes 12 points and 10 assists on average. With the local measuring stick being New West, Ducharme said his squad has made strides and garnered confidence. “I am shocked that (New West) hasn’t received an honourable mention (in provincial rankings). ... (New West coach Doug Woodward) has done a tremendous job with those girls. Again, we love to play against a great team because it’s all part of the master plan.” What will bridge that gap – beyond the sands of time and the experience everyone hopes will unite for a magical moment – is more play, more games and the lessons gathered, win or lose. “Our goal heading into the season was two-fold: to one, implement systems both on offence and defence that would increase our team’s basketball IQ, and two, compete hard and win games,” said Ducharme. “The team has learned that they can compete in spurts against the best in the province, but they have to string together runs on both offence and on defence.” The senior girls playoffs begin today at Burnaby North.The semifinals continue Tuesday with games at 4:30 p.m. and 6:15 p.m. at New West.The league final is slated for Wednesday, 6:15 p.m. at New West.

Gymnast travels quick route to national program

By Dan Olson

dolson@burnabynow.com

Her life has taken a big turn, all thanks to her gymnastic talents. Now,Tiffany Chung, an athlete from the Elite Gymnastics Club and member of Team B.C. that won bronze at the Pan Ams in Florida last October, is living and training in Toronto as part of the national team. The 15-year-old’s journey from eager teen to national team in Canada’s largest city has been part serendipity, part passion. Thanks to her skill in rhythmic gymnastics, Chung received an invitation to try out for the national squad last fall. And she took that invite as a blessing and a learning opportunity, not expecting to crack the group of seven who re-

It was really exciting for me but also nervous because it

The Burnaby business made a donation towards Chung’s expenses last year, and the general manager is pleased she’s achieved one of her goals so quickly. “You always hear about pro sports and pro athletes, and unfortunately so many sports you only hear about every four years,” said Kumagai, the dealership’s general manager. “The biggest thing was we were interested in her story and supporting youth sports in general.Whether its pride in representing your country or province, there’s a goal and a benefit (for the athlete) that comes with it.”

Playoffs a chance for Burnaby South to refresh, refocus By Dan Olson

dolson@burnabynow.com

It’s turn the page time, and that means playoffs. The Burnaby South Rebels are glad to turn the calendar, and while they have faced a few speed bumps over the past few weeks, it’s all systems go when it comes to the new season. The senior boys team wrapped up the BurnabyNew West league on Wednesday with a solid 9464 victory over Burnaby North, with senior guard Yaphet Soloman counting 17 points and three rebounds on Seniors Night. “Last night the kids decided to come together and play for each other,” Rebels coach Mike Bell said. “We pushed the ball really well. We’re a real deep team, and it’s when we come out of that team concept that we start to struggle.” It wasn’t an easy win, as the visiting Vikings trailed by just two points at halftime. Noah Pastrana netted nine points for Burnaby South in the first half. Finishing league play

at 7-1 as well as rebounding from Monday’s hardfought 77-68 setback to Byrne Creek – which decided the top two placings for next week’s playoffs – reflected a resilience that will be valuable over the next month. “We’re refocusing and looking ahead.We have to put the season behind us; we finished with a good win and now we take it one game at a time.The playoffs are all about winning that next game,” said Bell. In a 10-day stretch, ending with the Byrne loss, Burnaby South tasted defeat three times. At the Snowball Classic tourney in Abbotsford, a pair of backto-back defeats provided some important information that will be critical going forward, Bell said. They lost 79-71 in the semifinal to Toronto’s St. Michael’s, who would go on to win the title, and wrapped up with a 70-47 loss at the hands of 2-A No. 1-ranked Brentwood. If anything, it also showed the importance of rejuvenating and having everyone on the same page.

“The last two weeks we only had about five healthy guys at practice, between sickness and injuries,” said Bell. Would the past two weeks serve as motivation going forward, where the end goal is a berth to the 4-A B.C. championship tournament in Langley come March? “I want to say yes. Kids are refocusing on what’s ahead.We had a little bit of a falling out, and (Wednesday’s win) was a good showing.We showed what we can do. “Our grade 12s have kept

us together, just remembering last season and how we got to that point.They know what we need to do to get where we want to be.” Those seniors, led by Vince Sunga and six-footeight Jusuf Sehic, have the painful memories of missing the B.C.s to help fuel them. Being ranked, as they were much of last year, means little if the play on the court doesn’t produce results. Bell has a good feeling about this group, and how they can convert all those experiences into something positive. “I think we have great potential.We’ve got the shooters, we have good height. When we work hard and stay focused, we’ve got a lot of potential,” he said. “The regular season is over, and we basically look at that as exhibition. It’s all new now.This is the fun part of the year, where you see the best out of the kids. They bring their game to a new level.” The playoffs start Monday with quarterfinals. On Tuesday, Byrne Creek will play the winner of

North/Alpha at 4:30 p.m., while Burnaby South plays the other quarterfinal win-

ner.The league final is slated for Thursday, 3:30 p.m. at Byrne Creek.
