An 81-year-old man whose SUV slammed head-on into a transit bus in BurnabyWednesday afternoon has died.

Burnaby RCMP said it appears the man may have suffered a medical emergency, lost control of his vehicle and veered into the bus on Hastings Street near Holdom Avenue.

The man was rushed to hospital but succumbed to his injuries, police said.

Five people were transported to hospital, one in critical condition and the others in stable condition, according to B.C. Emergency Health Services.The bus driver was shaken up but did not require medical attention, according to TransLink.

The accident, in the middle of rush hour, created a snarl of traffic as the intersection was closed for nearly eight hours.

Police are now looking for witnesses. Anyone who witnessed the crash or may have dashcam video of the incident is asked to contact police at 604-646-9999.

Students get boost from virtual reality

Burnaby school district’s new education assistant training course will use new software to simulate incidents Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

Aspiring education assistants in the Burnaby school district’s new EA training course will get to practise dealing with problem student behaviour before even stepping into a classroom thanks to virtual reality software the district is developing.

The EA course was designed to address a shortage of education assistants in the province and will launch this fall through the district’s adult and continuing education division.

The first cohort will start in July and learn a range of skills, including how to deal with challenging student behaviour.

SPEAKING OUT: Burnaby North-Seymour MP Terry Beech took time out to sit down with reporter Lauren Boothby and talk about the Kinder Morgan pipeline expansion project. PHOTOS CORNELIA NAYLOR

Local MP addresses Kinder Morgan issue Terry Beech discusses the protests in his riding and his views on the pipeline expansion issue As Kinder Morgan’s May 31 deadline draws closer, Burnaby NOW reporter Lauren Boothby sat down with the Liberal MP for Burnaby North-Seymour, Terry Beech – the pipeline ends in his riding – to talk about his work on that issue and thoughts about the ongoing protests in his riding.

The following interview has been edited for length and clarity.

Lauren Boothby: Kennedy Stewart’s approach to addressing the pipeline has been different from the way you have been handling it.What have you been working on regarding the pipeline so far?

Terry Beech: I believe that my number 1 job is to represent my constituents and to be my constituents’ voice in Ottawa.The way I have dealt with this project as a member of the government, and also as an officer of the government, is to make sure that our concerns are not just heard, but understood, and are acted upon in Ottawa.

Before the decision was made, from the election until 2016, I spent a lot of time attending National Energy Board hearings, doorknocking in the riding. …

I was the only member of Parliament that took all of those concerns and turned it into this 18-page document, which I later presented at a Trans Mountain hearing in NorthVancouver. After the

decision was made, I had to take a step back.

There’ve been a lot of protests happening here since then, especially in March. Since then, we’ve had more than 200 people arrested. Did you think that you should be here when this is happening?

At every opportunity that I can be here, I am here.We have two permanent protests here. I make a commitment to go up there at least once a month.

You have to understand, that, as a sitting member of government, and as a parliamentary secretary, I have to be in the house when there are votes, because the government depends on it.

When people participate in civil disobedience, it’s usually an act of last hope or desperation. I’m an officer of the government. I literally have the ability to talk to the cabinet decision-makers and have an impact directly on the directions of government.

I personally am of the opinion that law-makers should stick to the rule of law. If, for example, our NDP colleague for Burnaby South was so concerned about this project, then he should have been in the hearings before this decision was made. I produced this 18-page report.

He produced fundraising emails.That’s a big difference in terms of getting the job done.

One reason people are opposed is the increased risk of fire at the tank farm on Burnaby Mountain.What have you been doing about that issue?

You have to understand, my wife and I have a house on Burnaby Mountain.We have neighbours that are also very concerned, One of the things I had proposed is, is there a possibility to rezone that part of the mountain as high-density residential and use part of the funds to move the existing tank farm to an alternative site further up the line.

There was a whole bunch of administrative process, and logistical reasons why that wasn’t possible, but I continue to kind of take hailMary-passes and see if there are ways, or interesting innovative solutions to solving some of these problems.

In April, a Burnaby streamkeeper reported sediment in a stream south of the terminal,

and the NEB found Trans Mountain did not have proper sediment fencing installed. How can we trust Kinder Morgan will follow the other conditions?

I understand people’s concerns.We expect this proponent to meet, not just the minimum conditions, but to go beyond the minimum conditions. I fully intend, and continue, to hold them to account to that standard.

Are you concerned about being re-elected? Even if your constituents feel you listen to them, they’re seeing that maybe your lobbying on the pipeline issue hasn’t been successful. Should they trust you with their vote again?

My job is to work as hard as I possibly can every single day to work and represent my constituents, and I am intensely proud of the job that I have done since day 1 of getting elected.

I literally don’t take any time off. I work all day every day, and on this particular

project, it’s taken an enormous amount of my time and my effort. Any person that has had concerns, any constituents who have contacted my office, have gotten a one-on-one in-person meeting with me within six weeks.

I think that’s an easy story to spin for people who are against the project, I guess, to say that, well the government determined that it is in the national interest, so therefore Terry’s ineffective.

But for anybody that’s been paying close attention to this issue, I would find it hard to understand what else I can be doing on behalf of the community on this issue.

I regularly ask that question … what more can I be doing? The answers tend to be things like, you know, cross the floor.Well, I am a Liberal, and I am profoundly proud of our government and what we’re delivering.

Can’t you be a Liberal and still oppose the project vocally?

There was a vote in the House of Commons in June of this last year and, given

our community’s view, I voted against the project. I was one of two Liberals in the government to vote against it.That’s the strongest statement that you can make is registering your vote in the House of Commons.

Instead of trying to get to a black-and-white answer, I try to create solutions to the problems people are facing, and I try to reflect the concerns that they have.

I have put more in writing on this project than any other member. Maybe it’s more direct for you, and more convenient for you to report on somebody that chains themself to a fence, but I have a responsibility to do a job. I take it very seriously, and I work each and every day to do that in a very deliberate way, and I have done that in a deliberate way.

And I’m not going to be bullied into simplifying a very complex argument simply because it makes a better headline for your newspaper.

Visit www.burnabynow.com for an extended version of this interview and a video.

Burnaby housing is a priority issue for MP Apart from the pipeline expansion, housing is another top issue for Terry Beech, Liberal MP for Burnaby NorthSeymour. And he’s been lobbying his government to invest in Burnaby, he says.

People regularly come into his riding office to talk about housing, he said, ranging from student housing, to demovicted renters in South Burnaby, to young prospec-

tive buyers, to business owners who can’t find housing for their employees.

A site next to his constituency office on Hastings has been identified as a potential place to build non-market housing, and the details are still in the works, according to Beech. He’s also recently spoken with the president of SFU about securing some funding for housing from the

National Housing Strategy, and has been working with the Burnaby Homelessness Task Force over the past two years.

“The federal government has been out of the housing game for 25 years,” Beech said. “(The housing strategy) is a major down-payment … and I fully expect that both North Vancouver and Burnaby, where the prob-

lem is just as acute as it is in Vancouver, will benefit from those funds.”

Now that the strategy has been announced, he said it’s his job, and the job of the other levels of government in Burnaby, to “get creative” and identify parcels of land and find ways to create incentives for developers to build affordable housing there.

Piano teacher faces sexual assault charges Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

A 67-year-old Coquitlam piano teacher who offered lessons in Burnaby and other Lower Mainland cities faces seven new charges of sexual assault and sexual interference – and police are still looking for other possible victims.

Dmytro (also known as Dmitri) Kubyshkin operates DM Piano School and is believed to have been teaching in private homes for

more than 20 years, according to Coquitlam RCMP. He was first charged in February with three counts of sexual assault involving former students.

On Tuesday, RCMP announced seven more charges had been added on May 18, for a total of 10: seven counts of sexual assault and three counts of sexual interference.The allegations stretch back to 1998, according to police.

Kubyshkin has been released on a number of new

conditions. He is not allowed to teach piano to students under the age of 18 nor be alone with anyone under 18. His adult students, meanwhile, must be made fully aware of the charges against him.

Anyone who believes they’ve been victimized by Kubyshkin or knows someone who may have been is asked to call Coquitlam RCMP 604-945-1550 and ask for the investigative support team. Cite file number 2018-1860.

Squamish, Vancouver suits fail in B.C. Supreme Court pointed in the approval of the TMX notwithstanding the conditions attached to that approval. It strenuously opposed the project and continues to do so. But as I commented at the start of these reasons, I must concern myself not with the result but with the process.”

B.C. Attorney General David Eby said the government is reviewing the decisions.

“Our government has taken a balanced approach to defending our environment and our economy while fulfilling our legal obligations and respecting the rule of law,” he said in a press release.

“The court has made it clear that these rulings have no bearing on the ongoing federal Court of Appeal case challenging the federal approval of the project.”

Virtual reality helps training Continued from page 1 The project is getting programming support from SFU PhD student Abraham Hashemian and technical support from UBC engineering professor Matt Yedlin.

When it’s ready to go, Konarski said it will beat the paper and pencil case studies he learned from when he

was at school.

“Beyond the cool factor, I think the technology does allow for an approximation of a rich condensed training experience that really cannot be replicated in a natural environment,” he said.

More than 100 wouldbe education assistants applied for the district’s new, in-house EA training pro-

gram; 30 will be picked for the first cohort, which will attend full time from the beginning of July until the end of November.

A second version of the program with classes on evenings and weeks will start in January 2019 and run until December 2019.

Two court cases challenging the Trans Mountain expansion have failed in the Supreme Court of British Columbia.

Justice Christopher Grauer released decisions on the two cases – one by the City of Vancouver and one by the Squamish Nation – Thursday morning.

In both cases, defendants asked the court to dismiss a decision by the previous B.C. government’s environment ministry to issue an environmental assessment certificate regarding the pipeline expansion.

Both the City of Vancouver and the Squamish Nation argued the B.C. government failed to properly consult the public before issuing a certificate.

In his rulings, Grauer says the decisions are not about approving the pipeline but whether or not the province followed its own administrative laws regarding an EAC. “This case is not about whether the TMX (Trans Mountain expansion) should or should not go ahead. It is not about whether the TMX is in the national interest, or presents an unacceptable risk of environmental harm,” he wrote in the Squamish ruling.

“This case is not about the adequacy of the consultation that was undertaken through the National Energy Board [NEB] and federal cabinet … These are questions under consideration by higher courts than this one. “(T)here is no doubt that Squamish is deeply disap-

Opinion now OUR VIEW

Adding bylaw officers won’t make up for bike cops

Excuse us while we do a little math here: 7-4=3, right?

Well, normally yes, but in the case of public safety, the numbers on the surface don’t necessarily add up the same way.

What we mean is that Burnaby is losing seven RCMP bike cops this summer, but gaining four civilian bylaw officers on bikes.

That should be a net loss of only three, but we feel the community is losing a

lot more than that with the switch.

The City of Burnaby has stepped up and added the four new civilian officers, at a cost of $334,000, with two women and two men riding around the city’s parks and other public spaces, enforcing bylaws, and reporting crime and suspicious activity to police.The unit will be equipped with cellphones and empowered to enforce bylaw offences ranging from animal control to smoking

in parks during a fire ban.

It’s a significant amount of money the city is putting into this pilot program, and it’s welcomed in the wake of the murder of 13-yearold Marrisa Shen in Central Park last July.

But while the city should be commended for spending this money, these civilians are starting at a time when the Burnaby RCMP has cancelled its bike cops program, putting seven members back into gener-

al duty.

Chief Supt. Deanne Burleigh, the officer in charge of the Burnaby RCMP detachment, told the city’s public safety committee recently the reason was strictly based on “resourcing pressures.” She told the NOW that if there were “additional resources” given to the RCMP, the program could be reinstated.

If we had to choose between bike cops and bylaw officers on bikes, we’d

choose bike cops.

Safety committee member David Pereira agrees, saying that “bylaw enforcement, that’s just regular citizens going through and enforcing bylaws.They certainly don’t have the presence or the ability of a police officer on a bike.”

It makes sense to put what the city is spending on the bylaw officers into the RCMP’s program, plus top it up to get it to the original staffing level. It’s a far more

effective form of enforcement than bylaw officers handing out tickets.

Burnaby finished off last year with $257.4 million in surplus at the end of December 2017, more than twice the amount projected by staff.We’d like to see some of that money spent to increase the RCMP’s budget when the two sides get together next to discuss it.

It’s a program worth saving.

INBOX JIM SINCLAIR

Private pay no health solution

Some time ago, an American expat working as a taxi driver made one of the most profound statements I’ve ever heard about Canadian health care.

The man was drawn here by the love of a Canadian woman, but he fell in love again when he realized that in Canada, he no longer lived in fear that his health insurance would not cover a serious illness.

Before coming here, he said he was a strong Republican who rejected out of hand any attempt to have Canadian-style medicine in the United States.

The provincial government decision to activate changes to the Medicare Protection Act should help lessen the fear in everyone.

These changes were long overdue – they were drafted in 2003 – stopping doctors from extra billing for medical surgeries and procedures that are covered under our health-care system.

Extra billing is a nice way to put it. Put another way, it is queue jumping, and it not only undercuts the most basic foundation of our system, it is directly eroding our ability to provide health care in the most tangible way possible – in our collective pocketbooks.

The federal government recently reduced the healthcare transfer payment to B.C. by $15.9 million. Private clinics that are breaking the law are not saving us money, they are costing us federal funding. It’s time for the myth of private pay not hurting the public system to end.

Every day, Fraser Health works to make the system more efficient, but we know that in British Colum-

bia, we face some real challenges. Last year, we had the second-lowest healthcare spending per capita of any province, according to the Canadian Institute for Health Information.

The answer lies in recommitting to public health care, to equal access to health care, to health care based upon need, not upon the size of a person’s wallet.

That’s why, at Fraser Health this year we are increasing the number of hip and knee surgeries by 23 per cent, or 836 additional surgeries, and the number of MRIs by 14 per cent, or 7,770 additional exams (private MRIs simply allow patients with money to move up the waiting list while others wait longer for care as a result).

Most people trace the start of Canadian health care to Tommy Douglas in the 1960s, but the first health-care program in Canada started in Cape Breton as early as 1883.The miners pooled a small part of their wages each week so that they could collectively afford to take their children to the doctor.

If Cape Breton miners 135 years ago understood the power of public health care and a Republican taxi driver from the U.S. can acknowledge that he used to live in fear, I say it is time to leave fear behind and embrace hope.

We need to continue to embrace our public healthcare system and we need to continue to make the changes and the investments necessary to make it the best in the world for all British Columbians.

Jim Sinclair is Fraser Health’s new board chair.

Wildlife refuge gains support

A proposal by the Wildlife Rescue Association of B.C. to build a new rescue facility at Burnaby Lake Regional Park got support from the Greater Vancouver Regional District, which maintains the park.The GVRD parks committee noted the site would provide “a quiet location for this function, which is especially important for the rehabilitation of birds and wildlife and yet still complements the nature park and nature interpretation programs” at Burnaby Lake.The association was formed in 1979 to rehabilitate wildlife affected by human activity and to provide public education.

More attention needs to be paid to stopping all the aggressive drivers Editor: Like many others residents of the Lower Mainland, I am becoming extremely concerned with the amount of aggressive and reckless drivers on the streets. In the last month alone, I have been a victim of road rage, tailgating, stunt driving and have also witnessed the same happening to others.

I have been driving for over 20 years and have not felt so scared and unsafe to drive up until very recently. It’s like I woke up one morning and everyone has forgotten their road sense. Something needs to be done immediately to address this growing problem, otherwise there is going to be a huge increase in the number of innocent injuries and casualties at the hands of these aggressive drivers.

I was waiting to make a left turn into my driveway when I noticed the driver behind become increasingly impatient and irate. I think he was literally waiting a minute, and he started yelling at me, and I couldn’t believe it, but he opened his car door to approach while we were on the street in traffic.

Thankfully, at the same moment, I was able to make my left turn and he decided to get back in his car and drive away.

But I was shaking thinking and wondering what he would have done if I was still waiting to make my left turn. Would have tried to break my win-

dows and attack me? Seriously? Yes, I think so.

Furthermore, at 10 p.m. one night I was taking a shower and heard a crashing sound and my house shook.

I came running out thinking someone broke into my house, but quickly realized a car flipped over on the street in front of my house. How and why? Because the driver was speeding well over a 100 km/h.

I could go on with examples. But please, something needs to be done. More attention needs to be paid to this matter as it’s not just an issue in Burnaby, but all over the Lower Mainland. I have two young kids, I don’t want to confine them to being home all the time because I am afraid driving with them and risking them becoming injured at the hands of an aggressive driver.

Watchdog clears Burnaby RCMP in shooting

Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

More than three years after they shot a man wielding a plastic BB gun, three Burnaby RCMP officers have been cleared of wrongdoing in the incident by B.C.’s police watchdog.

Police were called to the 9300 block of Salish Court at about 8 p.m. on March 20 after a witness reported encountering a man with a gun going into an apartment building, according to an Independent Investigations Office report published Tuesday.

The witness told police the gunman had at first threatened to shoot her but then told the witness she was “not in trouble,” states the report.

The witness said the man had then told her to call police, which raised police concerns the man was looking for a confrontation with the police, according to the IIO. Officers found the man in a vehicle in a nearby parking area and told him to drop the weapon, which turned out to be a BB gun, and get out of the vehicle, but the man didn’t comply and pointed the gun at his own head.

He then pointed the gun towards one of the officers, according to police, at which point officers fired multiple shots, hitting the man in the neck, chest and right arm.

He was treated in hospital.

The man later told the IIO he had been living in his vehicle and had had an up-

setting cellphone conversation with someone living in the apartment building just before the incident began, according to the report.

He said he did show his

… the officers acted as required by their duties gun to the witness but denied threatening the witness with it or asking the witness to call police.

He also said he didn’t point the gun at police and told them it was a toy.

After reviewing statements from 28 civilian witnesses, including the shot man and one of his relatives,

statements from four witness officers, cell phone videos, CCTV camera footage, recordings of police radio transmissions, ballistic reports and other evidence, chief civilian director Ron MacDonald said the IIO would not be recommending charges against the officers involved because they had used “necessary, reasonable and proportionate force to defend themselves.”

He pointed to the fact attending officers had been told the man had a gun and that he had told the witness to call police.

Further, the man failed to drop the gun despite repeated warnings from police, and then – inadvertently or otherwise – pointed the gun in the direction of one of the officers when he stopped

pointing it at his own head.

“The evidence collected does not provide grounds to consider any charges against any officer,” MacDonald said. “Indeed, the evidence shows that the officers acted as required by their duties and in accordance with the law.”

The March 2015 incident was one of three police shootings that month.

The IIO has yet to report on one of those cases, a shooting on March 1, 2015 after a robbery, now the oldest file on the police watch dog’s books.

The RCMP have complained, with Deputy Commissioner Brenda Butterworth-Carr, the RCMP’s commanding officer in B.C., calling the delays “unacceptable.”

Burnaby contractors fined for fall protection violations Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

Two Burnaby roofing contractors were issued fines last month for not adequately protecting their workers against falls.

WorkSafe inspected a worksite at 5386 Clinton St. in January and saw a worker carrying supplies on a roof about 20 feet up. He was wearing a harness but wasn’t clipped onto a lifeline, according toWorkSafe.

The roofing contractor, Blue Mount Roofing Ltd.,

was also found not to have provided the workers with “adequate information, instruction and supervision to ensure the health and safety of those workers,” and there was no designated first aid attendant on site.

The company was fined $2,500 on April 25.

Another Burnaby company,T.S. Ceron Roofing Limited, was fined the same amount for safety violations at 7310 Pandora St. in December 2017. At the site, WorkSafe saw two workers shovelling gravel up to the

edge of roof about 18 feet up. Fall protection equipment was available on site,

according toWorkSafe, but was not being used.

B.C. SPCA’s Wild Animal Rehabilitation Centre has also treated a number of animals suffering in glue traps, most recently a house sparrow that did not survive.

The society also pointed to the case of a kitten caught in a glue trap in Kelowna in 2015, which survived thanks to veterinary treatment.

“Retailers need to stop selling these cruel traps, which are causing wildlife

to suffer, as well as their intended victims,” said Vancouver Humane Society spokesperson Peter Fricker.

“Every year Wildlife Rescue is reminded of the deadly consequences these glue traps have on our local wildlife,” said Sam Smith, spokesperson for Wildlife Rescue.

“As long as glue traps are offered to the public, wildlife will suffer.”

Local residents are being urged to stop using glue traps for rodent control by B.C. animal protection groups who say wildlife and pets are being caught in them.

The Vancouver Humane Society has been calling for local retailers to stop selling the traps because of the cruelty to rodents, which suffer slow, painful deaths when they become stuck in the traps.The society says there are alternatives to the traps, including measures to exclude rodents from the home.

But glue traps are also causing wildlife to suffer, as the Wildlife Rescue Association of B.C. and the B.C. SPCA have confirmed with heartbreaking photographic evidence of wildlife and even pets being inadvertently caught in the sticky traps.

Wildlife Rescue says it has encountered 74 animals caught in glue traps in the last three years, including songbirds, bats, a hummingbird and a squirrel.The

Mother duck reunited with rescued ducklings

A bunch of ducklings were rescued from circling predators and reunited with their mother thanks to some concerned neighbours.

On Saturday, Burnaby resident Bruce Causier got a call from his daughter who was hanging out at a friend’s house in Vancouver.

She said a mother duck and her ducklings in the area had been attacked by predators, so she and some neighbours had rounded up the remaining ducklings to

try and save them, but the mother wouldn’t be caught, Causier wrote online.

Causier went to help. He and a neighbour decided to walk the ducklings to the closest body of water – a pond at Central Park in Burnaby.

They put the ducklings in a bin and, with the mother following closely behind, walked 1.3 kilometres to Central Park, according to Causier.

“The mother duck fol-

lowed us across two busy streets, then we released the ducklings at a small pond in Central Park in Burnaby. It was truly heartwarming to see them reunite. It’s so great to see that a small community came together to help another family who was in need of help,” he wrote.

Summer camps introduce kids to Shakespeare Julie MacLellan

jmaclellan@burnabynow.com

Ask Mary Hartman what it’s like introducing Shakespeare to children, and her enthusiasm will bubble across the phone line.

“It’s one of my favourite things in the world!” she says.

Which is probably a good thing, since introducing Shakespeare to children makes up a large part of Hartman’s job.The Burnaby resident is the director of education for Bard on the Beach, and in that role she offers a series ofYoung Shakespeareans summer workshop for children and teens, aged eight to 18.

Hartman is full of enthusiasm for this year’s offerings, which include 16 different workshops. Most of the sessions are two weeks long for half-days, and each workshop introduces the young participants to one particular work. And no, the program doesn’t stick to just the Bard’s lighter comedic works.

“We do all different kinds

of Shakespeare plays,” Hartman says, noting this year’s options include Hamlet, Romeo and Juliet, Julius Caesar and Richard III – alongside, of course, the always popular Midsummer Night’s Dream.

Because the camp has a high rate of return – “we have a lot of participants who come when they’re eight years old and they come for 10 years,” Hartman says – she notes they always change up the offerings so that kids have a new experience each year.

Participants study and work on the play for those two weeks, then stage an abridged version for family and friends at the end of the camp. Hartman and her team cut the works for length – about an hour for the 13-to-18 crowd, and about 50 minutes for the eight-to-13 set – but they don’t alter the language.

‘We don’t change Shakespeare’s language at all.We believe young people can speak the language and understand the language,” Hartman says. (For the re-

Workshop details Young Shakespearean workshops take place at the Bard on the Beach site in Vancouver’s Vanier Park, with sessions beginning July 3 and running through to Aug. 31.

Costs range from $370 to $490 for two-week half-day programs and oneweek full-day programs, and $800 for two-week fullday programs. Bursaries are available for anyone wishing to take part for whom finances are an obstacle.

New this year are full-day options, in which participants can spend

the mornings learning and rehearsing, then stay for the afternoons to go behind the scenes and learn more about the broader workings of theatre production – including explorations of prop and wardrobes, tours of technical facilities and special visits and activities with Bard on the Beach staff.

Early drop-off and late pick-up hours are available for an extra fee.

cord, she also says it’s easier to memorize Shakespeare than it is to memorize anything else – likely because of the meter and rhythm of the text.)

Hartman is passionate about her devotion to Shakespeare’s language, and she’s quick to discount any notion that Shakespearean plays are written in “old” English.

“Shakespeare was writing when the English language was 400 years younger,” she points out.

As a consequence, she says, the language was younger, more vibrant, more daring, more outrageous – rather like kids themselves.

“The young people we work with love Shakespeare,” she says.

What she will do, though, is change the focus of a play depending on the age group she’s working with – for instance, she’ll de-emphasize the Hamlet-Ophelia romance in the kid version of the play, because that simply doesn’t resonate with the younger set yet.

But, she says, it’s not necessary to shy away from the grand themes and messages of Shakespeare.

She quotes German playwright Bertolt Brecht in saying that: “For children, only the highest themes are high enough.”

She cites, as an example, last year’s workshop of Romeo and Juliet for kids.The workshop included 13 girls and one boy.The boy was keen to play Tybalt; the girls all had to figure out how to divvy up the parts.

The group explored the text based on the idea that the theme is “what happens when a society chooses hate over love,” and from there

the kids decided who wanted to take what roles.

In the end, six of the girls wanted to play Romeo and/ or Juliet. So all six played both parts, appearing as Romeo or Juliet in at least one scene apiece, with a simple coloured sash to denote character. In three pivotal scenes – when the two young lovers first meet at the ball, when they get married, and at the climactic final moments in the tomb – three pairs of Romeos and Juliets appeared together.

“These young people just took that to heart.They owned it and did such a beautiful job,” Hartman recalls. “The participants just loved it.”

The workshops are open to children of all skill and experience levels; Hartman says kids don’t need to have a background in acting or

in Shakespeare and, in fact, many participants come in as complete newbies.The programs don’t include any auditions, and they’re not focused on assigning “big roles” or “small roles” – but rather, on deciding as

Shakespeare belongs to all of us a group how the story can best be told.

“We’re really interested in finding the most exciting and most meaningful way to tell the story as a group,” she says.

Gender can easily be fluid in Shakespeare, she points out – noting that kings and queens, if you think of them

just as “monarchs,” can be played by anyone, and likewise with lovers.

That’s one of the many reasons she’s drawn to Shakespeare, she says; unlike much contemporary theatre, it’s not grounded in a particular context of time and place.

“Shakespeare thrives in an infinite number of contexts,” she says, noting that factors such as age, cultural background and geographic location can all be reinterpreted. “It’s just infinitely flexible.”

That means that no matter a child’s background – or an adult’s – Shakespeare can speak to an infinite number of perspectives.

“The greater variety of people we get to do Shakespeare, the more we learn,” Hartman says. “Shakespeare belongs to all of us.”

Community now FAMILIES

Moms were the Royal Wedding’s real heroes This edition marks the debut of our new weekly parenting column, called Mommy’s Grounded

Welcome to Mommy’s Grounded, where every week I will be sharing confessions, opinions and anecdotes from my journey through parenthood as a mom of three. Expect an against-the-grain, honest and humorous take on the hottest topics in parenting. “Grounded” can refer to “in trouble/punished” or “well-balanced/sensible” – depending on the reader’s discretion. I embrace the happy chaos that is life with kids and look forward to sharing my perfectly imperfect adventures with all of you. !

Many have witnessed it up close: the burst of a baby’s cry as the bride walks down the aisle, a flower girl making a run for it during the vows, or a ring-bearer picking his nose and giggling loudly as the bride and groom fumble their way through saying, “I do.”

As adorable as they may be in their pretty pinafores

and miniature tuxes, there’s an element of risk when it comes to incorporating children into a wedding – which is why my husband and I opted out entirely, taking the safer route with an adults-only celebration.

I joined viewers who witnessed the royal union of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle last weekend, and while all eyes were on the bride-to-be’s modest gown, and the sea of fashionistas donning fanciful fascinators, I was most fascinated with the women who kept their composure while herding the brood of bridal babes through the day’s events.

A total of 10 bridesmaids and pageboys escorted the bride down the aisle – all children, and all under the age of seven.To me, this would have been a royal recipe for disaster, but the

trio of moms who led the kids into the chapel, including soon-to-be sister-in-law Kate Middleton, and the bride’s bestie Jessica Mulroney, managed to keep their cool while keeping the kids at bay.

Children of Prince William and Kate, George and Charlotte, were joined in the wedding party by twins Brian and John Mulroney, who carried Meghan’s veil down the aisle; their little sister Ivy Mulroney; Meghan’s goddaughters Remi and Rylan Litt; Jasper Dyer, the son of Harry’s friend Mark Dyer; and Zalie Warren and Florence van Cutsem, Harry’s goddaughters – a gaggle of giggling cuties who managed to make it through the ceremony incident-free.

How did they do it? Extensive etiquette lessons for the kids, a whole lot of practice, help from the royal nanny Maria Teresa Turrion Borrallo (known as “the child whisperer”), and good

old-fashioned bribery. In an interview with Hello magazine, a wedding guest who witnessed the herding of the little helpers commented, “One little girl was upset but being comforted by the promise of Peppa Pig and Smarties later.”

It’s comforting to know that even royal moms need to resort to the promise of treats to get through a big event with their kids.

It takes a lot of planning,

patience and prep for me to brave a public outing with my trio of tots.The thought of a dozen or so onlookers witnessing the onset of a meltdown in a grocery store, or the stress of being the one with a sobbing baby on an airplane, is enough to make me want to hole up and hide away until my children are fully grown, so I can’t imagine the stress level of the heroic mothers who faced the ultimate mother-

Throughout the event, there wasn’t one crinkle of a candy wrapper, or a squeal to be heard, and for that, I think it’s the wedding moms who deserve the crowns.

With the Viagra Patent About to Expire, a New Sex Pill Takes the Spotlight A patented pill costing less than $1 a dose stands to help millions of men with failing sex lives; no prescription will be required

By Ray Wilson, Wilson Associated Press Health NewsHealth Correspondent TORONTO− A new sex pill is set to take the spotlight with the Viagra patent about to expire.

But unlike the former, it won’t require a prescription and is priced just under a $1 a dose.

The new pill called Vesele is part of a new class of performance enhancers for men, which work instantaneously on the body and mind triggering arousal and firmer, harder erections.

Formulated with a special compound known as an “accelerator”, Vesele can transport its active ingredients faster and more efficiently into the blood stream, where it begins to work its magic.

The patented ingredient blend initiates a process known as vasodilation, which causes arteries and vessels throughout the body to expand.

This allows blood to flow directly to penis and genitals, resulting in harder erections which last longer. Cialis and Viagra are based around a simlilar concept.

But what makes Vesele so remarkable, and what these other sex pills can’t do, is that also directs a small portion of this blood flow to the brain, which creates feelings of intense arousal.

In laymen’s terms, users become incredibly excited and turned on.

This is why the makers of Vesele say their pill has worked so effectively in clinical trials.

It stimulates the two most important organs for great sex, the penis and the brain.

The Brain Erection Connection Until now, medical researchers did not fully understand the brain-erection connection. It has now been made clear with Vesele. When both are supplied with a constant blood flow, men are harder and firmer for longer...and have unbelievable sex drives.

“Most of the research and treatment methods for men’s sexual failures have focused on physiological factors and have neglected the emotional ones. For the leading sex drugs to work, like Cialis and Viagra, you need visual stimulation” explains Dr. Henry Esber, the creator of Vesele.

“And although they work for some men, the majority experience absolutely no fulfillment during sex.

According to research published by the National Institute of Health, 50% of men taking these drugs stop responding or can’t tolerate their side effects...and on top of that they spend $50 per pill and it doesn’t even work half the time.

This is what makes Vesele so different and effective. It floods the blood stream with key ingredients which cause arteries all over the body to expand. The patented accelerator speeds up this process even more.

The result is a rush of blood flow to the pe-

nis and brain, helping to create an impressive erection and a surging desire for sex. Often, this is all men need to get going. And when taken regularly, many men say they are energized and aroused all day.”

Great Sex At Any Age With the conclusion of their latest human clinical use survey trial, Dr. Esber and his team are now offering Vesele in Canada. And regardless of the market, its sales are exploding.

Men across the country are eager to get their hands on the new pill and according to the research, they should be.

In the trial above, as compared to baseline, men taking Vesele saw a staggering 85% improvement in erection hardness over a fourmonth period. Their erections also lasted twice as long.

These same men also experienced an astounding 82% increase in the desire for sex (libido/ sex drive) and an even greater improvement in overall satisfaction and ability to satisfy their partners.

Many men taking Vesele described feeling horny and aroused through the day. The anticipation before sex was amazing. They were also easily turned on. Their moods were more upbeat and positive, too.

Faster Absorption into the Blood Stream Vesele is made up of three specialized ingredients: two clinical strength vasodilators and a patented absorption enhancer often called an accelerator. According to an enormous amount of clinical data, each is very safe.

Research shows that with age, many men lose their desire and interest in sex. They also struggle to produce an erection firm enough for penetration.

And although there are many theories as to why this happens (including a loss in testosterone) one thing is certain, inadequate blood flow is virtually always to blame. That’s why sex drug manufacturers focus on blood flow, it makes your erection hard.

But what’s more surprising, and what these manufacturers have failed to consider, is that lack of blood flow can also kill your sex drive.

That’s because blood supplies energy for the brain. This energy is required for creating brainwaves that cause excitability and arousal.

Studies show the Vesele stimulates the entire cardiovascular system, including the arteries that lead to both the brain and penis. The extreme concentration of the ingredients combined with the accelerator ensures that this process starts quickly.

The sexual benefits of Vesele are also multi-

Expiring Patent Opens the Door to a New Sex Pill: Vesele is a new pill that cost just $1 a dose does not require a prescription. It works on both body and mind to increase arousal and erection hardness.

plied as its ingredients build up in the system over time. This is why many men take it every single day.

Recent Studies Show Positive Effects on Women In the same study referenced throughout, Vesele was also shown to have an amazing (and somewhat surprising) effect on women too.

That’s because the same arteries and vessels that carry blood and oxygen to the brain and genitals are the same in men and women.

“In our most recent study, women taking Vesele saw a stunning 52% improvement in arousal and sex drive. Perhaps more impressive, they also experienced a 57% improvement in lubrication.

You can imagine why some couples are taking Vesele together. Everything feels better. Everything works better. Everyone performs better. It’s truly amazing.”

A New Frontier of Non-Prescription Sex Pills With daily use, Vesele is helping men (and women) restore failing sex lives and overcome sexual lets downs without side effect or expense.

Through a patented absorption enhancer, the Vesele formula hits the bloodstream quickly, resulting in phenomenal improvements in erection firmness and hardness. By boosting blood flow to the brain, users also experience sexual urges and arousal they often haven’t felt in years.

Art exhibition explores the urban landscape Urban Shift, opening at Deer Lake Gallery on June 9, explores two artists’ relationships to the city Artistic perspectives on the Vancouver urban landscape will be on display at Deer Lake Gallery in June.

Urban Shift, featuring the works of Carolina de la Cajiga and Martha Jablonski-Jones, is on at the gallery from Saturday, June 9 to

The creation process involves a bit of architecture, engineering, city planning and lots of imagination.

Saturday, June 30. An opening reception is set for June 9 at noon.

Both artists’ works are shaped by their personal relationships to the city, expressed through manipulat-

ed photographic images and painting.

A press release notes that de la Cajiga’s work focuses on the hasty changes our cities are going through.

Each work is composed of multiple photographs, which she stitches together and layers digitally.

“Photography allows de la Cajiga to move buildings to new settings, to reshape, reduce or enlarge them,” the release says. “The creation process involves a bit of architecture, engineering, city planning and lots of imagination.”

Jablonski-Jones’ paintings address our relationships to urban settings.The release notes that her work is divided into three layers: the visual, metaphorical and emotional considerations.Visual considerations look at the intersecting lines, juxtapositions and perspectives of urban structures as they configure a space.

Metaphorically, massive hy-

the city and the choice between being able to stay and having to leave.

“It is on these three levels that Jablonski-Jones attempts to capture a constellation of love, regret and

entanglement with a city,” the release says.

Two artist talks will be held during the exhibition: de la Cajiga on Saturday, June 16 at 2 p.m., and Jablonski-Jones on Saturday,

June 23 at 2 p.m.

Tree has deep roots in our history The oldest tree in Toronto could be cut down.

The 350-year-old red oak is located on a residential lot in Rexdale.The homeowners fear that the house may no longer be livable. As the tree grows, it “squeezes” the house and its foundation with branches and roots.

The property is on the market for about $750,000.

The city has said that it does not want to buy it, but a final decision has been put off for a few weeks while discussion and study goes on. Some Torontonians with a keen sense of history and appreciation for Toronto’s oldest tree have challenged the city to meet them halfway. Edith George, a longtime advocate for heritage trees, is leading a coalition of private citizens to raise half of the value of the real estate, approximately $325,000.

What is the significance of this tree? First, it was a rather mature 130 years old when Toronto, thenYork,

try as their own and as 35,000 Americans left home to fight, 5,000 British, Canadian and Indigenous people defended our border.

Without the help of our Indigenous people, specifically the people of the Six Nations, historians agree that we would most certainly be American today.

All non-Indigenous Canadians owe another debt of thanks to our native brethren. Our attention is drawn to Toronto’s oldest tree.

was founded in 1793.

Secondly, it is not just the tree that is significant, but what it represents.There is only one “oldest” tree in the city.When it is gone, another tree will be deemed “the oldest.” But it won’t be 350 years old and it may not be in a state of health that makes it worthy of saving, as this one is.To a large degree we need to save this tree because we can.

Third, the location and age of this tree has special significance to Indigenous people. It is considered sacred by many.

We believe this campaign should focus on the tree and its preservation.The house should be gently removed, the soil around its roots remediated and the entire tree be given special attention by professionals in the business of arboriculture. It deserves nothing less.

We understand that the tree could live another 150 years or more, given proper care and attention.

What’s going on with car insurance in B.C.?

It’s no secret car insurance has been getting more and more expensive.

Ever wondered why? For a start, there are more and more crashes. In fact, each year there are about 300,000 crashes on our roads – that’s close to 820 per day. More crashes lead to more insurance claims. In BC, there has been a sharp increase in both injury and vehicle damage claims. What’s more, the costs of these claims have gone up. Injury claims alone cost close to $3 billion a year.

So what’s being done about this?

You may have heard the provincial government and ICBC have announced changes to car insurance in B.C. Under the new plan, more money will be available for your medical care, treatments and other benefits, like wage loss.

The changes include: • Doubling of the overall money available for medical care and treatment.

• More types of treatments covered including kinesiology, acupuncture, counselling and massage therapy. This means you won’t need to wait for approval.

• More money covered by ICBC for individual treatments.

• Higher wage loss payments and benefits for household support.

How is this possible?

To allow more money for the care of people injured in crashes, the government has also announced it will introduce a $5,500 limit on pain and suffering payouts for minor injuries.

This means the amount of money you can receive for the emotional distress of being in crash will be limited. But this limit is entirely separate from the money available to you for medical care and the other benefits described above.

In fact, with the new changes these benefits are actually going up.

This limit will not apply to major or catastrophic injury claims – like broken bones or brain injuries.

Find out more For more information visit icbc.com/change

refreshments will be served following the performance.

Tickets available at the front desk at Century House, 620 Eighth St., New Westminster, 604-519-1066, or at the door on show days.

SATURDAY, JUNE 9 Tiny Tots & Technology, a series of programs offered by the New Media Gallery including art, storytelling and play that lead tots and

their parents through simple circuit making, coding and computational thinking.

Runs four Saturdays in June in the Learning Lab (Room 311) at Anvil Centre, 777 Columbia St. Register for morning or afternoon session.

Sign up at www.tinyurl. com/TinyTotTechMorning or www.tinyurl.com/ TinyTotTechAfternoon.

Will I still be covered?

The limit on pain and suffering payments does not take away your right to a hire lawyer or seek compensation for any additional economic losses. Just the same as today, if you are injured in a crash and not at-fault, you can get more money for wage loss and treatment costs over and above what is covered by ICBC accident benefits.

So who decides if an injury is minor?

Under the new plan, just like today, a medical professional – not ICBC – will determine the diagnosis of your injuries and this will be used to establish whether it falls under the definition of a minor injury or not.

How will the definition of a minor injury be determined?

The government and ICBC have been consulting with medical treatment providers to determine what types of injuries would fall under a minor injury definition.

Over the coming months, this definition will be refined through regulation while still working with medical professionals for their input. In addition, other jurisdictions that already have a definition in place will also be reviewed in order to learn from past experience.

What if I disagree with my claim?

Under our new plan, if you have concerns about your injury claim, there will be a new, independent dispute resolution process starting April 1, 2019. If you disagree with ICBC, based on the new plan, the Civil Resolution Tribunal will make decisions on the: • classification of an injury as a minor injury • entitlement to receive accident benefits claimed • decisions around who is at fault in the crash and settlement amounts for all motor vehicle injury claims below a threshold that will not exceed $50,000.

Why are these changes needed?

In order to cover rising claims costs, B.C. drivers would need to pay on average at least $400 more for their full basic and optional coverage by next year – an average premium of approximately $2,100.

These changes will stop you from paying rate increases of 30 per cent or more in 2019, while providing increased care for anyone injured in a crash.

Community now FOOD BANK

Teamsneededto buildcancreations

The Greater Vancouver Food Bank is bringing one of its largest events back to Burnaby.

The food bank announced on Wednesday the return of CANstruction, an annual fundraising and food raising activity that runs from Nov. 3 to 11 at Lougheed Town Centre.

But it needs teams to sign up now to take part.

The event features teams from across the Lower Mainland competing in the design and building of fun, large structures made entirely out of nutritious canned foods.

Each team has 12 hours to build their structure on build day, and then structures are on display as art exhibits for one week to allow the public a chance to vote for their favourite structure. All of the proceeds of CANstruction Vancouver go towards the food bank, in support of the 27,000 members that the food bank serves weekly. Since its beginning in 2002, CANstruction Vancouver has raised more than 1.3 million cans of food.

“After taking a year off, we are excited to announce the return of CANstruction Vancouver to our city, and the Greater Vancouver Food Bank is grateful for the partnership and support we

are receiving from SHAPE Properties and Lougheed Town Centre to make this event a success,” said Cynthia Kinsella, chief development officer for the food bank, in a news release. “We can’t wait to see the fun, creative structures that all the teams come up with this year.”

CANstruction Vancouver is a challenging and fun team-building activity, with all teams focused towards a terrific cause.The event requires planning, building and lots of teamwork, and the payoff is an awards ceremony, the “ACANemy Awards,” where teams celebrate their achievements, celebrate their contributions to the food bank, and meet their fellow competitors.

The deadline for local teams to sign up is July 31.Those interested in sponsoring the event are asked to contact events@foodbank.bc.ca.

To learn more about CANstruction Vancouver and to sign your team up, visit www.canstructionvancouver.com.

The Greater Vancouver Food Bank is a non-profit organization that provides assistance to over 27,000 people weekly through 13 food locations and more than 80 community agencies located in Vancouver, Burnaby, New Westminster and the North Shore.

BOLD COLOURS: Alysa Saini works on her artistic creation at the Burnaby Art Gallery during an In the BAG family drop-in session on Sunday, May 20. The gallery offers the drop-in sessions monthly to give families a chance to check out the current exhibition and then get into the studio to work on their own project related to what they’ve seen.

Lakers take early slap from Thunder in season opener Burnaby struggles in league opening loss to Langley, aims to ramp it up in semifinal rematch inVictoria

Dan Olson

dolson@burnabynow.com

There’s no better reminder that last year’s in the past than a virtual slap in the face.

The Burnaby Lakers took one on Wednesday, kicking off the Western Lacrosse Association 2018 season with a 12-7 loss to the Langley Thunder at the Langley Events Centre.

While the score looks respectable on the surface, the first half of the game was an eye-opener for the revamped Lakers lineup – which was missing seven regulars due to early season commitments.

Burnaby opened the scoring but witnessed Langley respond with seven straight, including a shorthanded tally from Preston Lupul midway through the second period.

At that point, the visitors appeared to

respond, led by rookie Brine Rice, and pushed back to out score Langley 6-5 the rest of the way.

“There was a point in the second that things kind of turned around a little bit and we started inching our way back into the game,” remarked Lakers coach Peter Tellis.

“After that I thought the game was even in a way.There was definitely a little rust in some of the guys who came out, but it took us a little bit to finally realize we were here to play a lacrosse game.”

The club’s passers began to click, and while they found little daylight early against the Thunder’s Brodie MacDonald, they stepped up the offensive pressure over the final 30 minutes.

“Our defence played fantastic the last half of the game.The offence has to sharpen up; we can’t go through the game turn-

ing the ball over that many times.We can’t go through games shooting the ball over the net and the ball going the other way,” said the coach.

Burnaby would count the game’s final three goals, with Rice wrapping it up with his second of the night on a nifty rush from the right side to beat MacDonald.

The Thunder took advantage of some special team opportunities, with 2018 Junior Draft’s No. 1 overall Connor Robinson burying a pair. Ottawa native J.P. Kealey netted a hat trick for Langley, while Tyler Pace chipped in a pair.

For Burnaby, Shaun Dhaliwal, Scott Jones and Dane Stevens also scored, while Zak Boychuk made 36 saves.

Rice, a late-round draft pick who played with the New West junior squad the past two seasons after transferring in from Que-

bec, proved to be an asset with the ball in his hand and generated a number of good scoring chances.

“I told Brine before the game that these guys don’t know who he is but by the end of the game they will. He got two tonight and there’s more to come.”

Coming off their first-ever WLA regular season title, expectations are firmly on returning to the playoffs and taking it as far as possible.Without the likes of 2017 MVP Robert Church, all-star Justin Salt and defender Matt Beers, the lineup featured a handful of fresh faces, including recently acquired Nick Jensen.

Tellis said while the returning players will be a big boost, in the end the play needs to be better at both ends.

“I asked the team if (Langley) won the Continued on page 33

Mah, track teammates make top list Lakers stall SFU sees 11 members of track and field team on conference All-Academic team Ben Conrad, who carries a 3.99 grade point average in computing science, headlines a group of 11 Simon Fraser University student-athletes named to the 2017-18 Great Northwest Athletic Conference Track and Field All-Academic Teams.

His GPA is fourth highest among all student-athletes in a system that awards a 4.33 GPA for an A-plus.

Conrad is one of five SFU athletes on the GNAC men’s All-Academic team. He is joined by thrower Peter Behncke, who completed his eligibility during the indoor track season and carries a 3.52 GPA in the Beedie School of Business; middle distance runner Rowan Doherty, who is studying behavioral neuroscience with a 3.41 GPA; Burnaby Central grad and sprinter Nathan Mah, a kinesiology major with a 3.31 GPA; and Sean Paulson, who has a 3.50 GPA and is majoring in engineering.

On the women’s side, senior middle distance runner and hurdler Sophie Dodd not only ex-

celled on the track but also in the classroom with a 3.57 GPA in the Beedie School of Business.

A two-time member of the conference’s All-Academic team, Dodd competes in the 2018 NCAA Div. 2 outdoor track and field championships this week in Charlotte, North Carolina. She came second in the 800 metre at the GNAC championships and qualified for nationals with the eighth fastest time.

Middle distance runner Alana Mussatto, who competed in the 2017 NCAA championships and finished 11th in the 800m, is redshirting this outdoor season.

She was named to the AllAcademic team for the third time while maintaining a 3.41 GPA in kinesiology.

Also named to the women’s All-Academic team were middle distance runner Paige Nock, with a 3.35 GPA in general studies; 400m specialist Megan Notting, a kinesiology major with a 3.58 GPA; hurdler Amy Petz, a biomedical physiology major with a 3.29 GPA; and sprint

game or did we lose the game.The guys said we lost the game,” he said.

“For me, recognizing that we can grow from that is a big part.The most important thing is we’re going to get a bit better every time we come out.We’ll keep building off that and keep positive and develop this.”

Burnaby headed to Victoria to play in the provincial capital’s season opener today, against a team that bounced them in a seven-game semifinal last summer.

There will be no problem getting motivated for that one.

“It’s great playing in Victoria, and I love hearing that crowd sound,” said Tellis.

“We’ll stay overnight and that will do a lot of good.We have a lot of new faces in that dressing room, so having a lot of fun together and having a beer together will do wonders.

“We’re missing guys, like every team, so we used some call-ups and pieced together a lineup (on Wednesday). Every team is in a similar situation. Regardless, if we had all our players, we still have to play better and clean up our game.We just have to continue to get better each time we get together.”

The Lakers’ first home date is Friday, June 1 against Coquitlam.
