Mom details horriﬁc coyote attack on son By Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

Drops of blood are still visible on the sidewalk of a Burnaby townhouse complex where a threeyear-old boy was attacked by a coyote Tuesday. Just after 5 p.m., Amanda Dycke said she had run out of the front door of her Dunvegan Court townhome near the Burnaby Mountain golf course to catch her son Ayden, who had squeezed out of the gate in their backyard. A few steps onto her front walk, she heard a scream. “Just like one of those where you just know that’s a bad scream,” she told the NOW. On a sidewalk two doors down from her house, she then witnessed her son trying to fend off a coyote mauling his head. “There was a coyote on his head, chewing his head,” Dycke said. She made loud noises and tried to make herself look intimidating to chase the coyote off, she said, but it didn’t move until she ran at it full force. Dycke said neighbours told her the animal had skulked around even after Ayden was taken to B.C. Children’s Hospital with three bonedeep gashes to his head that took more than 100 stitches to fix. “It was pacing, like it wanted to finish what it started,” Dycke said of the coyote.

BROKE stages ‘die-in’ protest

Burnaby residents hold up crosses to protest Kinder Morgan’s pipeline plans Lauren Boothby

lboothby@burnabynow.com

Protesters with the group Burnaby Residents Opposing Kinder Morgan Expansion staged a “die-in” outside the Trans Mountain terminal gates on Burnaby MountainWednesday morning — dramatizing the worst-case-scenario in case of a disaster at the tank farm. About 50 people participated in a demonstration, with some lying in front of the gates “dying” from an explosion, while others were singing, chanting, holding banners and sitting in a circle in front of the gates. Some were arrested. Twenty-five demonstrators took their cue after hearing a siren, with some yelling “Fire!” and “Evacuate! Evacuate!” The group lay on the ground holding white crosses and signs listing the reasons they were “killed,” including exposure to hydrogen sulfide, fire, smoke and benzene. Others, dressed in hazmat suits, drew chalk outlines around their bodies

and carried them away on stretchers. One man wearing a toy firefighter hat sat with his feet and hands bound, his mouth gagged. He played the role of Burnaby Deputy Fire Chief Chris Bowcock, meant to demonstrate that his “hands were tied” in stopping the disaster. Bowcock published a report in 2015 outlining the risks to the neighbourhood should the pipeline expansion go through. He expressed concern about wildfire spreading on the mountain close to homes. People at Simon Fraser University would be trapped there as the forest burned, he said. BROKE member Ann Jarrell participated in the die-in. As someone who lives on Burnaby Mountain, she said she’s concerned about what could happen to her if there were an explosion and she couldn’t escape. “The tank farm is already dangerous,” she said. “If there is a fire or explosion or something here, we may not be able to get off the mountain because we only

So we are calling the alarm, and we are telling those residents that, yes, there is significant danger to the expansion.” —With files from Jennifer Moreau

Feds vow to cover pipeline losses Pipeline opponents slam Trudeau government for committing tax dollars to a private project

Lauren Boothby

lboothby@burnabynow.com

The federal government is prepared to compensate Kinder Morgan for losses and expenses due to delays on the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion project, and is working toward an agreement by the May 31 deadline set by the company. Finance Minister Bill Morneau told reporters Wednesday morning the federal government will indemnify the project against any financial loss caused by “unnecessary delays” and “politically-motivated investment risks” from the B.C. provincial government. That indemnity against financial loss would also be available for another party who wishes to take over should Kinder Morgan decide to pull out of the project. “This indemnification would allow Kinder Morgan to finish what they

started, what they received federal and B.C. approval to do,” he said. “We understand that a private company would want to maximize their profit. Likewise, we have a responsibility to act in the best interests of all Canadians. “If Kinder Morgan isn’t interested in building the project, we think plenty of investors would be interested in taking on this project, especially knowing the federal government believes it’s in the best interest of Canadians, and is willing to provide indemnity to make sure that it gets done.” Premier John Horgan responded to the announcement by saying his government’s opposition to the project is “entirely within our rights” and that they have been issuing permits in a fair and timely manner. “The federal finance minister is trying to use our government as an excuse, as the federal government puts

port for Kinder Morgan, the purpose of the press conference - to update Canadians on the progress of talks with Kinder Morgan - was lacking in specifics. Canada cannot indemnify against the risks of not respecting Indigenous Title and Rights.”

Mom believes coyote still on the loose Continued from page 1 The B.C. Conservation Officer Service announced Wednesday it had tracked and destroyed a coyote at about 10:15 p.m.Tuesday. The service said the coyote matched the description and behaviour described by Dycke and her partner – Ayden’s dad – Chris Ramm, but only DNA testing would confirm whether it was the right animal. “The coyote’s carcass is captured as evidence for us.The head and claws will be swabbed,” conservation officer Sgt. Dean Miller said at a press conference Wednesday afternoon. Any DNA found on the coyote will be tested against samples taken from Ayden Wednesday morning. The coyote will also be tested for rabies and other diseases, according to Miller. Miller said coyote attacks on humans are rare and usually only result in a couple puncture wounds or superficial scratches. “This to us is quite unique, knowing the extent of the injuries on this young victim,” Miller said. Dycke doesn’t believe the animal euthanized Tuesday was the one that mauled her

son, and the attack has her family and her neighbours spooked. The townhouse complex, usually noisy with kids playing outside, was practically deserted Wednesday afternoon, and Ayden’s older sister startled at small noises like a pinecone falling from a nearby tree. “People know that the

coyote has not been caught yet,” Dycke said. “Of course, conservation officers don’t release this information, but they’ve shown me a picture.They don’t believe it’s the coyote; I don’t believe it’s the coyote. It showed no signs of any blood.” Dycke said the conservation service had told her three aggressive coyotes had been identified in the area. Ayden, meanwhile, is doing well after returning home at 3 a.m.Wednesday, according to his mother, but

it will take some time for him to get over the trauma of the attack. “He’s kind of scared right now to go outside of the yard,” Dycke said. Neighbours, Ayden’s older sister’s school, Lochdale Elementary, and even the local store have been very supportive through the ordeal, according to the family. Some neighbours looked after Ayden’s two siblings while his parents were at Children’s with him. Others brought by gifts. Children at Lochdale drew pictures for the injured boy, and the school sent over a gift basket, according to the family. “I’m really taken aback by it,” Dycke said. As for why the coyote attacked her son, Dycke is still stumped since Ayden wasn’t carrying any food or anything at the time. She said she can only assume the animal had been fed and was just too comfortable with humans. “People are not taking this ‘don’t feed the wildlife’ seriously because (coyotes) wouldn’t normally want to be in a situation like this where there’s so many people.”

Recovering: Ayden Dycke needed more than 100 stitches after being mauled by a coyote. PHOTO CONTRIBUTED

IN BRIEF

Burnaby activates ﬂood plan

Burnaby is warning against potential flooding along the Fraser River, and expects river levels to rise this weekend. The River Forecast Centre issued a high streamflow advisory for the river this week due to an increase in snow melt. River levels are expected to continue to rise, and “create surging and faster flowing water” this week, according to the city’s website. City manager Lambert Chu said the river’s levels are higher than normal, and the city has already activated their flood protocols for the first time since 2012. The city’s flood response plan includes installing sandbags, and other temporary dikes and barriers. – Lauren Boothby

Parkstoget newsecurity cameras The city’s plans to increase security in its many parks will begin rolling out this year, starting with bike patrols this weekend. Bylaw officers will patrol parks, including Central Park, Deer Lake Park, Robert Burnaby Park as well as other public spaces like Civic Square or Barnett Beach.They will be working in teams of two, from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, and 1 p.m. to 9 p.m. from Monday to Thursday. Security cameras will also be installed at entrance points to Central Park, and at Burnaby Lake Sports Complex, Charles Rummel Centre,Wesburn Centre, Confederation Senior Centre, Confederation Skate Park and Metro Skate Park over the next two years. In Central Park, the cameras will be placed at the wayfinding kiosks and 911 call boxes. Better lighting for park trails is also part of the plan. From 2018 to 2019, the city will install lighting from Imperial Street to Beresford Street, and from Boundary Road to Patterson Avenue from 2019 to 2020. Lighting from East 45th Avenue to Kingsway, and Beresford Street to Boundary Road is scheduled in the future. — Lauren Boothby

Burnaby looks to restrict sales of cats and dogs Pet stores will only be allowed to have rescue dogs and cats on site, and charge an adoption fee Lauren Boothby

lboothby@burnabynow.com

Burnaby residents looking to add a new four-legged friend to their family won’t be able to buy one in a pet store in the future. Council is considering amending three related bylaws that would prohibit selling cats and dogs. Only adoptions from shelters or rescue programs will be permitted. Businesses will still be able to sell cats and dogs if they provide proof that the animals are from a municipal animal shelter, or an animal shelter or rescue organization that is a registered charity or society reg-

istered under the B.C. Societies Act. Store owners will only be allowed to charge an adoption fee that covers veterinary expenses and the cost of caring for the animal while in their care. The last retail pet store in Burnaby shut down in 2017, making this a good time to put a law into place, Mayor Derek Corrigan said at a council meeting this week. “I think it’s opportune. We don’t have any businesses that are doing this in the city now,” he said. “But, from now on, people who do start up pet store businesses will have very clear rules that indicate that the sale of dogs and cats will not

Funds sought for Old Curly Lauren Boothby

lboothby@burnabynow.com

Plans are in motion to build a new home for an old artifact important to British Columbia’s history. Burnaby Village Museum is asking the city for $75,000 to build a new shelter for Old Curly Locomotive, the oldest surviving steam locomotive in British Columbia.That engine was used in the 1880s to build part of the Canada Pacific railway. The new building is meant to create more protection for the old machine, as well as “more opportunities to interpret the history of the locomotive,” according to a staff report. It would be located outside the main entrance to the museum on Canada wWay. The museum is also asking for $40,000 to create new drainage systems to prevent water from pooling outside the main entrance to the building. It would replace wooden entry doors with metal doors, and build a small roof to prevent dripping when the doors are opened by guests. Both projects would use capital reserves from Burnaby’s 2018-2022 financial plan.

be permitted. “I think we will continue to encourage that those pet stores can continue to be involved in placing rescue animals, and offering opportunities for verified breeders to be in contact with people.” Coun. Dan Johnston said there were other places peo-

ple could find pets, and this bylaw could prevent puppy and cat mills from springing up in the city. “There are more than a lot of opportunities within Metro Vancouver to obtain dogs, cats, through rescue centres, private breeders, there’s various opportunities to get healthy dogs and

cats,” he said. “This gets rid of the potential for dog and cat puppy mills, cat mills, and potential neglect of cats and dogs.” Other cities have banned the sales of cats and dogs as well, including New Westminster (2012), Richmond (2010),Vancouver (2017), and Delta (2017). Some of

these allow stores to facilitate adoptions through partnerships with shelters. There are currently 15 businesses that sell animalrelated goods, including six that sell small animals, and four that provide adoption services through animal rescue organizations, according to a staff report.

Community driver program needed for seniors

As efficient as they are, HandyDART and public transit don’t meet the needs of older seniors who still want to be able to get out into their community for appointments, socializing, shopping and more. That’s why it’s important to get behind the recommendation of the B.C. Seniors Advocate for a community driver program to be added to the community home support system that now provides bathing and medication services for old-

er people. It isn’t enough for seniors to rely on friends and family and a dwindling pool of volunteers to get around once they give up the keys to their vehicles. HandyDART rides work well if planned in advance, but many rides go unfulfilled; buses are difficult to get to, wait for and access for people in walkers; and cab drivers, once at the destination, won’t typically aid someone in getting to the door.

Itisn’tenoughforseniorstorelyon friendsandfamilyandadwindling poolofvolunteers… What’s needed is a service to fill some of these gaps, and the transportation report released this week by Isobel Mackenzie offers an intriguing solution: adding driving services to the programs that home support services typically offer on a sliding scale basis.

The idea would be to have two classifications of workers: the home care worker and a community support driver, both of whom are trained and meet the requirements of authorities. According to the seniors advocate, this publicly sub-

sidized service would complement, not replace, public transit and HandyDART, and could efficiently be added to the current home care service. This report is required reading for everyone: from health care and transportation officials to politicians, and anyone who expects to live past 75, because that’s when seniors’ car usage typically begins to drop. Ask yourself this:What am I going to do when my mobility declines and I have

to give up my licence? Am I prepared to be isolated and stressed? Will my family be able to help me? To quote Mackenzie’s report: “Seniors must be able to get out and engage in their communities, and transportation is key to achieving the social inclusion necessary for seniors to optimize their independence and community engagement.” We say “Yes” to that.

Pipeline isn’t in the ‘national interest’

As Canadian politicians scramble to respond to Kinder Morgan’s deadline of May 31 to clear perceived political obstacles to its proposed pipeline, it’s time to examine the dominant narrative: “Canada’s national interest entails getting Albertan bitumen to ‘tidewater,’ to generate jobs and revenues.” What really is the “national interest?” Is it to allow a Texas-based multinational to export Albertan non-renewable resources to Asia at breakneck speed and fire-sale royalties? Astoundingly, almost alone among advanced economies, Canada has no energy security plan or strategic petroleum reserve, as Gordon Laxer, founding director of the Edmonton-based Parkland Institute, points out. Under NAFTA, Canada could not prioritize Canadians in an international supply crisis. The petro-elites promise epic wealth from bitumen export, but oil economists like Jeff Rubin and Robyn Allan find no Asian market drooling to buy a low-quality product with high transport costs and competing sources. Why do Albertan politicians wail the fiscal blues, when they haven’t introduced a provincial sales tax, let alone maintained the robust royalty and ownership regime negotiated by thenPremier Peter Lougheed in the 1970s? Parkland estimated that from 19992008, Alberta forwent a staggering $121 billion in excess profits to fossil fuel companies. No wonder Alberta’s Heritage Fund totals less than 2 per cent of the tril-

lion dollars that Norway, with similar sized oil fields, has amassed. Such a nest egg could have financed proposals from Alberta’s own trade unions to create more refinery jobs within Alberta, and to finance a “just transition” to a low-carbon economy that cushions resource workers and communities. Even a 2 per cent provincial sales tax would equal the revenues that Notley optimistically anticipates from the KM pipeline over the next 20 years. Moreover, KM co-founder Richard Kinder, a former Enron executive, is renowned for structuring corporations to minimize taxes payable. Why hitch our economic wagon so heavily to volatile international resource markets, and to an industry that receives billions in subsidies and externalizes many of its costs? Responsible sands development would surely prioritize land remediation, First Nations rights, groundwater safety, renewable energy (already employing more than fossil fuel companies), and economic diversification. It would husband a non-renewable resource for domestic energy security and pay its fair share of the huge costs of global warming. Foreign corporations don’t hesitate to divide and rule. Having lived in four provinces, including Alberta, I’m saddened to see Canadians so polarized.

Machine gun fired in park

The early morning stillness of Central Park was shattered one day in March by the sound of machine gun fire. Burnaby RCMP were inundated with calls about someone firing an automatic weapon in the park starting at about 4:30 a.m. A helicopter equipped with infrared cameras was dispatched to locate the gunmen, and the RCMP Emergency Response Team surrounded the park, evacuating area residents.The team moved in at daybreak and arrested two men, one with help from a police dog. Investigators later recovered a number of shell casings, dispelling the notion firecrackers had made the noise.

We need recycling in More companies must take safety rules seriously Burnaby parks

WE ARE HIRING!

Editor: I recently played a softball tournament at Riverway Sports Complex. After a weekend of seeing 500-plus softball players, I was rather saddened, angry and disturbed to see that there was absolutely no recycling or composting at the park. All the bottles, cans, garbage, plastics, paper and food went in garbage cans to be dumped, like it was 1988. As a Burnaby taxpayer, this disgusts me. To find out we are years behind other Lower Mainland jurisdictions when it comes to our parks. Places where thousands visit daily. Then to find out the parks department and engineering are not even at the roll-out stages. Recycling has been in Burnaby for more than 15 years. Composting, more than three. We have been fighting Kinder Morgan for three years, in regards to environmental standards. Yet the City of Burnaby is a decade behind in their own backyard. I find that hypocritical. Especially considering my taxes have increased every year, for 18 years, and the actual dollar amount has gone up, because of speculated, rather than actual, property assessments, which has given Burnaby a $4-billion contingency. Not to mention the fact that we have lost thousands of trees that have not been replaced because of development. The bottom line is, Burnaby has no business complaining about a company’s track record when they are just as bad. Jeff Wittworth, Burnaby

Editor: Re: Contractor nets $20,000 WorkSafe fine for safety violations at Burnaby site, Burnaby NOW, May 12. Thank you for highlighting a problem that is far too rampant in the construction industry: the idea that safety regulations are just a guideline and contractors don’t actually have to follow all of them. The contractor in this case, Modern Touch Construction Ltd., has been called out by WorkSafe for “repeated and high-risk” violations going back several years and for committing these violations “knowingly or with reckless disregard.” The contractor’s defence? According to the story, the owner told the NOW that his workers, who were not wearing fall protection, “were not that high,” and that he complied with “most” of WorkSafe’s orders. You can’t make this stuff up. The leading cause of death for construction workers, except asbestos, is falls from heights. Residential construction has the worst record. While multiple and increasing fines for consecutive offences is a deterrent for the contractor, it means nothing to the worker who ends up laying on the ground with a piece of rebar sticking out of his or her back.

This industry report shows clearly how the traditional ways of selling homes have become increasingly less and less effective in today’s market. The fact of the matter is that fully three quarters of homesellers don’t get what they want for their homes and become disillusioned and — worse — ﬁnancially disadvantaged when they put their homes on the market.

BLACKJACK

SPONSORED CONTENT

BURNABY — A new report has just been released which reveals 7 costly mistakes that most homeowners make when selling their home, and a 9 Step System that can help you sell your home fast and for the most amount of money.

ROOFTOP FIRE The top of a single-family home in South Burnaby

was scorched by fire Tuesday. Firefighters were called to 6069 Patrick St. at about 3:45 p.m., according to Mawhinney. On arrival, they found thick black smoke and flames coming from the roof. Much of the smoke, however, came from plastic lawn furniture and patio flooring, according to the assistant fire chief, and the fire was mostly contained to the rooftop. The cause of the blaze is undetermined, Mawhinney told the NOW, but it appears to have started in a planter on the roof.

This was not a drill. Students and staff were evacuated at Cascade Heights Elementary School Monday morning after a fire broke out in the school’s kitchen. Firefighters were called to the school at about 10:52 a.m. for a fire alarm signal, according to assistant fire Chief Barry Mawhinney, and found light smoke coming from the roof and front door of the school on arrival. Staff and students had already been evacuated, Mawhinney said. Firefighters found a small

contents fire in an auxiliary kitchen attached to the school gym. “The fire was extinguished fairly quickly,” Mawhinney said. “It was a contents-only fire, so there was no structural damage.” Classes were expected to resume Tuesday, according to a notice on the school’s website, but students were urged to bring their own snacks for recess since the Snack Bar was expected to be closed. No one at the school district was available for comment before press time.

City now Retired ﬁre captain to run for Burnaby council Lauren Boothby

lboothby@burnabynow.com

After working for the Burnaby fire department for nearly 30 years, former Burnaby fire captain Rudy Pospisil is hoping he can serve the public a new way, by running for city council as an independent candidate. Pospisil has lived in Burnaby his whole life. He remembers swimming, playing, and catching fish in Burrard Inlet as a child, now the place of Trans Mountain’s Westridge marine terminal. He’s raised three kids here too, and they all went to BCIT. On the whole, Burnaby is a well-run city, he says, although there are some changes he would like to make. First, he says he’s not pleased with the rate of development. He would cap new highrises at 30 storeys because the new towers are “an eyesore” and make fighting fires difficult. “I think the densifica-

tion and square-footage in these towers and highrises are there for a reason.The height cap is there for a reason,” he said. “Burnaby is prostituting itself to the developers. “You look from Metrotown to the mountains and you see the giant black nails going in between your view … I mean, it’s ugly. If you keep it below the sight-lines, and you keep it within a certain amount of the hill ranges for views, then it’s more acceptable.” The city should be demanding more amenities from developers too, he says, such as in the new developments in Metrotown. “They’re pushing people out of the three-storey walk-ups to build towers,” he said. “This non-market housing should have all been part of the negotiations in the beginning.” He also doesn’t like the way the city has dealt with Kinder Morgan and said the mayor’s refusal to pay policing costs was “embarrassing.”Though he

wouldn’t say whether or not he supports the pipeline, he said negotiations could have been better. “They’ve drawn battle lines in the ground, and nobody’s talking to each other,” he said. “I think the federal government is going to legislate, that it’s going to go in, and we’re going to have lost our opportunity to really deal with Kinder Morgan and do it the way we wanted it to be done.” Another thing he’d like to see is more bike trails. As a cyclist, he says he spends most of his time cycling in Vancouver because he doesn’t like the trails in the city. Pospisl also noted that he is “truly independent” because, as a retired firefighter, he doesn’t have an income from a business or union. “I have a vested interest in my city. I grew up here. I have family that’s going to grow up here and continue on, and I want my city to continue in the right direction.”

Rotary clubs band together to ﬁght polio Fundraising walk set for May 27 at NewWestminster waterfront Janaya Fuller-Evans

editorial@burnabynow.com

While symptoms of the polio virus are not serious in most cases, it can be devastating for those unlucky enough to get paralytic polio. Those struck with the more severe form of the disease can develop loss of reflexes, muscle aches and weakness, and loose or floppy limbs, according to the Mayo Clinic. Symptoms can progress and last for years. The suffering polio can cause is something a member of the Rotary Club of NewWestminster is familiar with, both personally and professionally.

It’s a very difficult virus to eliminate “I had polio when I was three years old. Most of polio was eradicated, but I managed to get it,” Gabor Gasztonyi told the NOW. “We had just come from Hungary as refugees, and I think there was a group of us who were not immunized.” The last recorded case of wild poliovirus in Canada was in 1977, but cases still pop up in parts of Asia and Africa. “It’s a very difficult virus to eliminate,” Gasztonyi said. There were about 400,000 cases of polio in the world when Rotary began

fundraising and awareness efforts to fight the disease, according to Gasztonyi. Now there are about six or seven cases per year. “The work has to be kept up because we require the immunization to continue, otherwise polio will come back,” he said. Gasztonyi speaks to different Rotary Clubs about polio and his experience with it. He also travels to Ethiopia to help children there who have the disease. “The project I’m involved in is giving physiotherapy services to young children with polio in Ethiopia,” he explained. Gasztonyi is also chair of this year’s End Polio Now Walk, taking place on May 27 in NewWestminster. Other Rotary clubs have come on board to help with the walk – the Rotary, Rotaract and Interact Clubs of Burnaby, NewWestminster, Vancouver Cambie andVancouver Mountainview. “It started about five years ago, among, essentially, the Burnaby clubs and NewWestminster,” Gasztonyi said. “And we slowly expanded to include other clubs.” Adding more clubs along the way has made for a larger event with better capacity for fundraising, he said. “We kind of feel that the more people involved, the better off we will be in achieving what we want to achieve,” he added. “It’s nice to be able to raise some funds, and it’s also good for awareness.” The participants will be wearing red Rotary T-shirts.

ROCK THE WALK: Above, Rotary Club members walk from Metrotown to New Westminster at a past Polio Walk.Below, Gabor

“It brings great attention to Rotary in the community,” he said. The walk begins and ends River Market at NewWestminster Quay, with participants walking two or five kilometres along the waterfront esplanade boardwalk. The River Market is supplying microphones and tables, and there will be a live band playing. NewWestminster Mayor Jonathan Cote will be on hand, along with dignitaries from Burnaby and the Rotary district

governor Don Evans. “They have a great time. We’ve had great weather every year,” Gasztonyi said. “It’s really a fun day, it’s a great venue.” It’s really important to raise funds to fight polio, he added. “We’re making huge progress in the world, and Rotary’s done an incredible job, so we want to keep it up and essentially raise as much money as we can,.” To register or sponsor walkers, go to www.bit.ly/ endpolionow2018.

A Burnaby French immersion student ready to tackle tough social issues has won first place in a provincial public speaking competition for the second year in a row. Last year, Moscrop Secondary’s Sarra Pirmohamed took top spot in the Grade 9 French immersion category of the Canadian Parents for French Concours d’art oratoire with a speech about the fentanyl crisis. This year she won with a speech about missing and murdered Aboriginal women in B.C. The provincial finals took place at SFU’s Surrey campus, with 235 finalists from across the province competing. The finalists had been whittled down from 10,000 total B.C. participants, according to CPFYukon and B.C.

Winners: Moscrop’s Sarra Pirmohamed (left) and North’s Emily Liu get medals from Padminee Chundunsing. PHOTOSCONTRIBUTED

Twenty speakers from Burnaby qualified. One other local orator besides Pirmohamed earned a first place. Burnaby North Grade 9 student Emily Liu captured first in the core French category for a speech titled “Le temps.” Three other local speakers – all from Moscrop –

earned third-place honours: Grade 9 immersion student Michelle Fong for “La generation X”; Grade 11 core French student Andrea Guerrero Chiprout for “Comment les portables et l’internet influencent notre vie”; and Grade 12 late immersion student Prajal Biswas for “La lumière du cinema.”

For the second time in three years, a Burnaby elementary school has taken top spot at the B.C. Elementary School Team Chess Championships last weekend. Marlborough Elementary wrested the top prize from defending champions St. George’s School from Vancouver. Facing seven strong contenders at the Saturday tournament, the team took first place in the A Section with 15.5 points after five rounds. Along the way, the Burnaby team defeated two-time B.C. champions Erma Stephenson Elementary from Surrey 2.5-1.5 and drew even 2-2 with St. George’s, even though the seven-time defending champions, who hosted the tournament, had a candidate master competing. Marlborough’s A team was made up of Grade 7 students HenryYang and Alex Wang (both grade 7), Grade 4 Aiden Leong and Grade 3 Leonardo Zhou.

A motherless duckling was briefly taken into protective custody by Burnaby RCMP earlier this month. The hapless baby bird was one of a bunch of ducklings suddenly forsaken when their mother was hit by a vehicle on Highway 1 between Kensington Avenue and GaglardiWay on May 6. “We got a 911 call about people stopping on the highway and trying to round up some ducks,” said Const. Jonathan Gillis, a Hope Mountie who was doing general duty overtime in Burnaby at the time. Gillis was in one of two patrol cars that responded to the incident beside the eastbound lanes of the highway. The mother duck was still alive when Gillis got there

Birds an essential part of any garden setting In the chorus that is a living garden, our favourite section is the singing birds. A breeze through tall grass, the crunch of gravel underfoot and a frog croaking all play their part in this living soundtrack. Nothing can stop us in our tracks like birdsong. Our friends at Bird Studies Canada remind us that birds are an important indicator of the health of our environment. Healthy planet, healthy birds. Our favourite way to promote and enjoy birds is bringing them right into the backyard by providing food and habitat. Here is how: Plants are a one-stop shop for food and shelter. Birds prefer fruits and seeds right off the plant, and most birds either build their nests in a tree, shrub or stand of grass, or they make their nests from pieces of it. Flowers such as asters, black-eyed Susan (Rudbeckia), echinacea (purple

coneflower) and coreopsis not only add colour to your yard but attract a range of song birds from cardinals to colourful finches. Leave perennials standing throughout the winter so they can continue to be foraged and cut them down in the spring. Native ornamental grasses attract sparrows, finches and other small birds that forage for seeds. Robins and sparrows pick up coarse blades to construct the main walls of their nest, then revisit for finer-textured blades to pad the soft lining of the interior. We recommend planting big bluestem, little bluestem, northern sea oats or side oats. Like your perennials, leave these grasses standing through the winter to provide habitat for overwintering species such as darkeyed juncos. Robins, waxwings and cardinals build nests in shrubs, eating and singing like old friends at an East Coast kitchen party. Mulberries and serviceber-

ries are two medium-sized, summer-fruiting shrubs that are especially popular with this crowd. Flowering dogwood bears fruit in the fall to keep them coming, as does crab apple, which also fruits in the fall but holds its fruit into the winter. Trees are the bird equivalent of a tall condo building, bustling with life.White

Trees are the bird equivalent of a tall condo building, bustling with life

oaks provide nesting opportunities to woodpeckers, jays and even wood ducks, and unlike other oaks, white oaks produce acorns every year. Native tree species are found to support more bird life.We recommend red maple or black, red and white spruce, gray, white and yel-

low birch or black willow, if you have lots of space. Once you have created a bountiful bird food-garden, supplement with the right bird feed. Birds will forgive you for letting the feeders go empty. People worry that the birds depend on them for feeder-food.While a feeder helps bring birds to your yard, it will only ever be one of many food sources they depend on, so don’t race home from the cottage to fill your bird feeders. Buy seed based on the birds you wish to attract. The following guidelines by BSC will help you understand what type of feed will attract the birds you want: Black oil sunflower seed will attract cardinal, blackcapped chickadee, mourning dove, dark-eyed junco, song sparrow and common grackle. Suet and bird peanuts attract blue jay, red-breasted nuthatch, downy woodpecker, white-breasted nuthatch, hairy woodpecker. Avoid “human peanuts” as the salt

is harmful to birds. Nyjer/black oil sunflower will attract the smaller house finch, American goldfinch, purple finch, common redpoll, pine siskin. With enough food and places to make nest, remember water.This is extremely important as birds, like humans, need to drink and bathe. As you enjoy the bird chorus of the oasis in your yard, consider joining a “citizen science” initiative

through BSC such as Project FeederWatch. Simply count the kinds and numbers of birds at your feeder and report it back for BSC to add to their database.

Entertainment now Burnaby students onstage in Arts Umbrella festival Julie MacLellan LIVELY CITY

jmaclellan@burnabynow.com

Young Burnaby residents are part of the fun as Arts Umbrella’s Expressions Theatre Festival hits the stage in Vancouver. The festival is onstage until May 26 at the Waterfront Theatre on Granville Island. It features young talent from Arts Umbrella’s intensive, pre-professional and theatre conservatory programs in a range of plays that run the gamut from whimsical family fun to a modern take on a classic Greek tragedy. Sewit Haile, 14, is one of the Burnaby talents in the festival, featured as Violet Beauregarde in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Eighteen-year-old Ace Crowchild is featured in the classic Rodgers and Hammerstein musical Oklahoma! as Ali Hakim and Slim. Ace also plays Hansel in Missing, Charles Way’s modern interpretation of the classic fairy tale Hansel

and Gretel. “The young and exceptionally talented assemblage of Expressions Theatre Festival students never fail to inspire with their courage, passion and devotion to their craft,” says Paul Moniz de Sá, artistic director of the theatre and music program at Arts Umbrella, in a press release. “Their dauntless enthusiasm is contagious.”

Their dauntless enthusiasm is contagious

The festival lineup also includes a modern take on Euripides’ classic Greek tragedy The PhoenicianWomen and Outside In, a work created and performed by Arts Umbrella’s Laboratory Theatre Troupe, plus a theatre and music showcase by students.

Women’s Rovers to launch premier season

It’s a new game for a new team. The TSS Rovers women’s soccer team may be a new entity, but they pack a whole lot of experience. The team, making its debut in the Women’s Premier Soccer League, features standouts from the national under-20 women’s team, Simon Fraser University and a host of NCAA commitments. In an open-aged circuit, the Rovers will

showcase a lot of youth from the Lower Mainland and B.C. “We are going to be out of the gate a very dynamic team,” remarked TSS Rovers manager Will Cormack. “We are stocked with some exceptional ballers, and I think the challenge will be getting them to gel.” Burnaby’s Kaela Hansen, Siena Porth and Emma Regan are members of the firstyear squad, which kicks off the season Sat-

urday against the THUSC Diamonds, 1 p.m. at New West’s Mercer Stadium. Regan has represented Canada a number of times in both u17 and u20, and is heading to the University of Texas, along with one-time Cliff Avenue product and national team member Julia Grosso. Hansen, a member of the national team pool, and, like Regan and Grosso, part of the Whitecaps Elite program, will be on the

midfield. She’s committed to Kansas University. Alpha Secondary grad Siena Porth, who is heading to the University of Toronto, is also on the Rovers roster. The team also includes just-turned 17-year-old Jordyn Huitema, a teen standout with the senior national squad. The Rovers are also slated to play the Seattle Sounders on June 17 at Burnaby’s Swangard Stadium.

SFU sends eight to NCAAs

Next week Simon Fraser University will have a healthy contingent of athletes trying to escape Charlotte’s web with a medal. Eight members of the SFU track and field team qualified for the NCAA Div. 2 outdoor track and field championships next week in Charlotte, N.C. Leading the way are returning All-Americans Addy Townsend and Vladislav Tsygankov. Townsend, a junior, will be competing in the 1500-metre event after having finished sixth last year in the 800m, while Tsygankov, a senior, will be working at topping his seventhplace result in the men’s 400m hurdles at last year’s championships. Also making second appearances at the NCAA finals are seniors Sophie Dodd, who placed 14th in the 800m last year, and Oliver Jorgensen, who as a freshman competed in the 3000m steeplechase. Making their outdoor nationals debut are seniors Reta Dobie, competing in the women’s 3000m steeplechase, Ally Ginther, in the 5000m race, and freshman Renate Bluschke and sophomore Nicole Lindsay, part of SFU’s first-ever relay team at the nationals. Bluschke and Lindsay will run with Townsend and Dodd in the 4x400m relay. Townsend also qualified to run the 800m but chose to focus on the longer distance, where she is ranked third in the nation. “It was a pretty agonizing decision,” said SFU head coach and mom Britt Townsend. “We have trained for the 800 all year, but she was ranked third in the 1500 and she has never been ranked that highly in either event before, so it’s a good problem to have.” Tsygankov is ranked 13th in the 400 hurdles, but ran only two hurdles races prior to qualifying in 2017. Jorgensen competed in the mile at the NCAA indoor championships in March and has earned his way back to outdoor nationals in the 3000 steeplechase where he is ranked No. 11. “He’s a little tired and a little beat up – still struggling with injuries,” said the SFU coach.

WLA goes high tech for head health By partnering with tech company, league adds new tool in dealing with concussions

Dan Olson

dolson@burnabynow.com

The Western Lacrosse Association takes its players’ safety serious. The league is showing that they intend to be as good as their word with the recent announcement that they are partnering with the B.C. company HeadCheck Health to improve the league’s concussion protocol and in-game decision making process. Training and therapy staff of all seven WLA teams will begin the 2018 season – which starts May 23 when the Burnaby Lakers visit Langley – with the company’s mobile testing app, which will help in assessing potential concussions during the game, as well as record valuable data that can be used in future

decision-making. “So much attention in recent years on impact sports has been on the effects of concussions,” WLA commissioner Paul Dal Monte said. “One of the things that we really wanted to make sure we did was develop a strategy and plan to make sure we did everything possible to keep our players safe and give our trainers the tools they need to make sure they are able to conduct better testing and make better decisions in a game and even over the season for that matter.” Dal Monte says training staff from around the league have been doing a good job of monitoring and assessing each individual case as it occurs.The HeadCheck app is another tool that will help standardize a leaguewide protocol and allow teams to

maintain and collect information on each case. Although unsure of any yearto-year trend in the league regarding concussions, Dal Monte said last year – his first as commissioner – saw fewer than a handful reported. “It was a small number, and a lot of that has to do with ensuring the way the game is played, to reduce head contact,” he noted. “As a league we’re paying very, very close attention and are, for at least recent times but certainly my first year, focusing heavily on high sticks and any contact to the head and treating those very seriously from a penalty and discipline perspective.” New Westminster Salmonbellies’ captain and Burnaby South Secondary vice-principal Curtis Hodgson said the league’s pro-

active steps over the past year in addressing hits to the head was welcomed news for players, and he believes giving trainers more means to evaluate players is something everyone supports. “I think it’s a great step, and I think (Dal Monte) has made it a priority to improve things,” remarked Hodgson. “He and the board of governors have done a few things to ensure players safety is taken more seriously.They need to invest in keeping players safe, and keeping the game safe so that players can play for a long time.” HeadCheck CEO Harrison Brown said the goal is to help the WLA continue making the right decisions in cases of a suspected concussion, and allow teams and the league to monitor the data as Continued on page 35

U16s get SFU lands big ﬁsh in NCAA transfer invites Former New Brunswick standout brings six-foot-11 presence to Clan court Burnaby native Nicco Camazzola was among 60 players selected to attend the under-16 provincial male hockey camp by B.C. Hockey. Camazzola, a 6-foot-1 defenceman from the Burnaby Winter Club Academy, was selected after participating in the U16 B.C. Cup last month in Salmon Arm. Drafted in the fourth round, 78th overall, by the Vancouver Giants in the Western Hockey League’s bantam draft two weeks ago, Camazzola will be joined by nine of his fellow BWC academy teammates at the camp. Also selected were goaltender Thomas Milic, defencemen Elias Carmichael and Marcus Taylor, and forwards Caedan Bankier, Keean Fisk, Rocco LaCarra, Chase Sandhu, Matthew Seminoff and Finlay Williams. All are 15 years old except Fisk, LaCarra and Seminoff, who don’t turn 15 until later this year. The B.C. U16 camp runs July 29 to Aug. 3 in Shawnigan Lake, training for the 2019 Canada Winter Games.

Simon Fraser University men’s basketball bolstered its front court with the signing of six-foot-11 centre Julian Roche of Saint John, New Brunswick, who transfers from NCAA Div. 1’s Santa Clara University. Roche spent two seasons at Santa Clara, appearing in six games and averaging 2.3 points his freshman season after redshirting in 2016-17. He will be a redshirt sophomore when he debuts for the Clan in the fall of 2018. “Julian runs the floor extremely well and attacks the glass on every shot,” said SFU head coach Steve Hanson. “He will get an opportunity to showcase his ability right away at SFU and we are glad to add another big Canadian talent to our program.” Hanson expects Roche to fill the shoes of junior forward Tyrell Lewin, who started 27 games, averaging six points and five rebounds for the Clan last season. Lewin has decided to pursue his career in Vancouver’s tech industry and will not be returning for his senior season. When he was 15, Roche began

attending Proctor Academy in New Hampshire where he had an outstanding high school career. A three-year starter, Roche averaged eight points, 12 rebounds and nearly five assists per game during his senior season at Proctor, despite playing through injury. He averaged 14 points, 14 rebounds and four assists as a junior. Roche was an all-state selection

as a sophomore when he averaged 14 points and 13 rebounds per contest. He also picked up three blocks per game from his sophomore through senior seasons. “I saw a great opportunity to come back to Canada and continue to compete in the NCAA to the best of my abilities,” said Roche. “I look forward to continuing my education at SFU and playing basketball at a high level.”

Roche was enrolled in biochemistry at Santa Clara. He is the third player signed in the Clan’s 2018 recruiting class, joining B.C. High School Boys 4A MVP Jusuf Sehic from provincial champion Burnaby South and six-foot-four guard Wilfried Balata out of prestigious Thetford Academy in Quebec.

League takes steps to improve safety Continued from page 34 a means to make future informed decisions. “During the game (training staff) will be able to make better decisions, more appropriate and more well-informed decisions.We’re also helping the WLA by doing analytics on all the teams.What basically we’ll do is provide a once-a-month report back to the WLA with some high-level information about how many tests are being done, where they are occurring, are teams doing them properly, and are teams following the concussion protocol.” He said information gathered will be able to assist teams in improving their evaluation and response to potential concussions. For Dal Monte, the changes in the sport – and around the sports world – have greatly benefitted

from new technology, but part of the solution also involves administering and changing rules to eliminate checks to the head – including heavy penalties to those who level high hits. As a tool in treating the injured, technology has certainly been a game-changer. “The depth of knowledge is so much deeper, you combine that with technology which affords us with so many tools to do things better and smarter, and we have better equipment than 20 years ago,” said Dal Monte. HeadCheck Health began in 2013 and after testing with UBC varsity teams, began partnering with other sports organizations two years ago. It is being used by B.C. rugby, football and hockey programs around the province.
