High-end cars impounded for blowing by at 138 km/h Cornelia Naylor
cnaylor@burnabynow.com
The high-end sports cars of two 22-yearold Burnaby men have been impounded after the pair were clocked driving nearly 140 kilometres per hour in an 80 km/h zone in Maple Ridge. The Ridge Meadows RCMP traffic section was conducting routine traffic enforcement in the 25800 block of Lougheed Highway Thursday when officers saw a Blue 2017 Lamborghini Aventador and black 2016 McLaren 675H blow by. Laser equipment clocked them at 138 km/h, according to police. Officers stopped the pair and impounded their vehicles for a minimum of seven days. Both drivers now face fines of $368. An incident report will also be forwarded to the Superintendent of Motor Vehicles. The driver of the McLaren is an “N” driver, according to police, and both had previously been served with excessive speeding infractions and fines. Police say the two Burnaby men were headed to the Mission Raceway for a planned private track event when they were stopped. One vehicle was equipped with a radar detector.

Pro-pipeline group threatens vigilante eviction Kelvin Gawley
kgawley@burnabynow.com
An Alberta-based pro-pipeline group is threatening a vigilante eviction of pipeline protesters on Burnaby Mountain – prompting police to urge the public not to take the law into their own hands. “This is a national embarrassment and something needs to be done,” Cory Morgan wrote on his blog. Morgan, a libertarian blogger and former political candidate, said the legal system has failed to properly deal with Camp Cloud, a collection of trailers, wood structures and tents near the entrance of Kinder Morgan’s Trans Mountain pipeline tank farm. On Wednesday evening, Morgan tweeted that some members of the camp would be in Vancouver for court proceedings the next morning – providing an opportunity for his
group to move in. “The Citizens Committee to Evict Camp Cloud will be performing their first direct action while the squatters are gone,” he wrote in a since-deleted tweet. “It’s going to be fun.” The morning came and went without any appearance from Morgan or members of his closed Facebook group. “Last night’s postings were more just actually to light a fire under their butts,” Morgan told the NOW. But, he said, the threat won’t be empty next time. “We really are organizing with the plan on getting out there if the authorities don’t get a move on with this,” Morgan said. Morgan said he will wait to see the outcome of the City of Burnaby’s application for a court order to enforce the eviction notice it gave Camp Cloud on July 18. A B.C. Supreme Court judge is set to hear the

city’s application on Aug. 10. If the judge upholds the portion of an existing injunction allowing the camp to remain, Morgan said he believes the law would no longer apply in that area. “If it turns out that it’s a completely lawless spot – as far as I’m concerned that’s what the injunction is saying – then I guess citizens will have the right to take it upon themselves to go in there and deal with it themselves,” he said. Morgan’s proposed “cleanup” of Camp Cloud would simply amount to picking up garbage, he said. He said there would only be violence if it were instigated by members of Camp Cloud, in which case Morgan’s “eviction committee” members would defend themselves. Morgan said he was motivated to organize the group in an effort to end interference with the planned expansion of the

Trans Mountain pipeline. “We seem to be crippled by a camp full of layabouts on the side of a road,” he said. “We can’t even clean them out, how is any investor going to feel confident investing in any energy project in Canada when we can’t even do the most minor of removal of illegal protesters?” But local police are reminding Morgan and others it is not their place to evict Camp Cloud. “Police would urge people not take matters into their own hands,” said Supt. Chuck McDonald, Burnaby RCMP operations officer. “The RCMP respects the dignity of all people and ask the same of all stakeholders.” An RCMP spokesperson said police were aware of the online comments threatening a vigilante eviction and that police were monitoring the area to keep the peace.

Two more ignore jail threat, get arrested Kelvin Gawley
kgawley@burnabynow.com
The seniors have not been deterred. That was the message heard outside Kinder Morgan’sWestridge MarineTerminalWednesday morning, as two more pipeline protesters were arrested for violating a B.C Supreme Court injunction meant to prevent interference with work on the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion project. The two women sat in chairs and blocked the gates to the facility less than 24 hours after a judge sent two senior women to jail for similar actions earlier this year. A Crown lawyer argued seniors are “the population that must be deterred” from further violations. “When I heard about this older woman getting jail time, that’s when I decided to sacrifice myself as well,” said Ruth Campbell after she was released from police custody on a promise to appear in court. Campbell did not give her age but said she too is a senior. The retired lawyer said she felt compelled to join the anti-pipeline movement in order to stop climate change and protect wildlife. Campbell said it was her first time being arrested.

“I didn’t think I would ever go through with it,” she said. “I wanted to cry, but I’m here, I haven’t cried yet, and it’s just something I
wanted to do.” Campbell said she volunteered herself to be arrested because she has less to lose than a younger person.
“Right now, there aren’t any terrible consequences for me going to jail, and someone who’s 20 years old would have to carry that for
a long time,” she said. Campbell was arrested alongside fellow protester Noaa Edwards, who said they (Edwards uses they/
them pronouns) violated the injunction in order to support Indigenous land rights. Both Campbell and Edwards face charges of contempt of court and could face up to 14 days in jail. They joined the ranks of more than 200 people who have been arrested for violating the injunction. In addition to blocking trucks from entering the terminal for several hours, the anti-pipeline protesters sent a message, according to Protect the Inlet spokesperson Jacqueline Lee-Tan. “We’ve seen that no matter how much the Crown ups sentencing, people are doing whatever it takes and sacrificing whatever they need to sacrifice to stop this pipeline,” she said. “Today has been yet another day showing the continued and solid opposition to this pipeline and the buyout of this pipeline.” Asked what it would take for protesters to stop violating the injunction, Lee-Tan said: “That’s a question for the people, and from what it looks like, people will sacrifice whatever they need to sacrifice to stop this pipeline from getting built. “There will be ongoing opposition.There will be more bold action.”
Third fatal motorcycle crash in Burnaby this summer
Police remind motorcyclists to ‘obey posted speed limits’ after a man was killedWednesday on Griffiths Drive Cornelia Naylor
cnaylor@burnabynow.com
A 34-year-old man is dead after his motorcycle slammed into a tree on Griffiths Drive near 14th Avenue Wednesday night. The man had been travelling north on Griffiths Drive just before 6:30 p.m. when he lost control of his bike, left the roadway and hit the tree, according to police. He died at the scene, said police. Griffiths was closed between 10th and 14th Avenues until 12:30 a.m. Thursday. A bus stopped near the scene was not involved, according to police. The cause of the crash is still under investigation. This was the third fatal motorcycle crash around Burnaby since June. On June 2, a 51-year-old man was thrown from his bike on Burnaby Mountain Parkway near Gaglardi Way
and later died. A couple of weeks later, another man was killed on the Burnaby-New Westminster border after his motorcycle collided with a car on 10th Avenue near Fifth Street. On June 16, a 28-year-old man was seriously injured in a crash between his motorcycle and a Mini Cooper at Griffiths and 18th Avenue – near the site of Wednesday’s fatal crash. “Police are taking this opportunity to remind motorcyclists to obey posted speed limits and always be prepared for the unexpected,” stated a Burnaby RCMP press release. Anyone who witnessed the Wednesday crash or might have dashcam video of it is asked to contact police at 604-646-9999. To remain anonymous, contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477) or www.solvecrime.ca.

Opinion now OUR VIEW
Level playing field for taxis, but add competition At first glance, it appears the BC NDP provincial government and a new report on modernizing the taxi industry are bending over backwards to protect it. After all, it would seem consumers shouldn’t care whether companies that purchased taxi licences for huge sums in years past lose their shirts when ridehailing apps become legal. Those were exchanges between private parties after the licences were issued by the public regulator for
a nominal fee, and with all businesses, investors sometimes lose money in risky ventures. As Dan Hara notes in his report on the issue of compensation: “On an ethical basis, should the public purse be held accountable for private business decisions? Creating taxi licence value was never an objective of the system and the public purse never received the large payments for the purchase of taxi licences.” But maybe it’s not such
a bad thing to increase the number of taxis by 15 per cent, as the BC NDP government intends to do, while delaying the entry of ride-hailing apps, even if it seems doing so will turn the clock back a decade. Keeping taxis afloat while discouraging bureaucratic duplication and licence resales would be beneficial if it means increased competition should large-scale international businesses, such as Uber and Lyft, enter Metro Vancouver.
Taxis are not all bad and can be a consistent, safe and reliable service, albeit with serious limitations for those living in the suburbs. For one thing, taxis are better positioned to provide accessibility services, as they already do, and if adequately promoted, could make this a selling feature, because Uber has admitted it can’t provide this service. While it’s true an area cab company, Bel-Air Taxi, missed an opportunity by keeping a wheelchair-bound
senior waiting three hours for a cab in the rain on Canada Day, this should be an anomaly in a public conveyance system if it’s not a private monopoly. If ride-hailing apps were to push taxis out of business, these international juggernauts could quickly become a monopoly of another kind, with benefits flowing to businesses with U.S. headquarters.These apps, as we have seen, are not without their own awful histories, although their
convenience cannot be denied. What is important is that public safety be protected and service guaranteed, giving people, especially in the suburbs, another way to get around without a personal automobile. (And please don’t forget that transit can be an excellent alternative.) Levelling the playing field so taxis can compete should be the goal of modernizing the fleet — but with an eye to more competition, not less.

Ease rental woes with more supply More than any other person, famed urban geographer Dr.Walter Hardwick shaped today’s Vancouver. He organized the successful movement to oppose a freeway through downtown Vancouver (the Georgia Viaduct is the only remnant of this traffic system). Also, he was the primary visionary of both the Granville Island Public Market and the residential development of south False Creek. His book,Vancouver Urban Futures, was the impetus behind the current regional town-centre model of development for the entire Lower Mainland. The citizens of the City of Burnaby should be proud that our long-serving mayor, Derek Corrigan, has been instrumental in continuing the vision of Hardwick by encouraging high-density development around Burnaby’s SkyTrain stations. Residents of Burnaby are blessed to have two rapid-transit lines run through our city, and we have an obligation to provide livable communities to as many residents as possible. Recently, Corrigan has been under considerable pressure to limit the redevelopment of older buildings around Metrotown. The concerns being raised by those adversely impacted by these “demovictions” are real and unfortunate. However, as a community, we must decide which housing policy will serve the greatest number of people. Advocates for the status quo argue that existing tenants will never be able to afford newer housing and will be displaced forever. However, a comparison of the
Metro Vancouver housing market and the greater Seattle housing market tells a much different story. Like Metro Vancouver, greater Seattle has seen rapid growth and Seattle is now headquarters to some of the world’s largest corporations like Microsoft, Amazon, Costco and Starbucks (to say nothing of the ongoing impact of Boeing on the region). However, as rental rates in Vancouver continue to rise, rental rates in Seattle are moving in the other direction. In a June 25 article in The Seattle Times, business reporter Mike Rosenberg states: “As new apartments open across the city in record numbers, vacancy rates have grown, rents have stopped rising and landlords are offering an increasing number of freebies to get tenants in the door.” The article continues: “A glut of new apartments washing over the city has quickly turned the tables as vacancy rates hit their highest level since the recession, led by downtown Seattle, where one-fourth of all apartments are now sitting empty. Landlords who are increasingly hard-pressed to fill their apartments are offering deals like a free month’s rent, lucrative gift cards and even free electronics.” Some landlords are offering two months free rent.The 26-per-cent vacancy rate in downtown Seattle is up from only five per cent one year ago. This is happening because Seattle is getting more new housing units in five years than it has seen in the previous 50 years. Continued on page 7

Biker dies in high-speed chase
A 25-year-old motorcyclist died of massive head injuries after being chased down by a Burnaby motorcycle cop in New West in August. Police said the motorcyclist made a U-turn and kicked a pedestrian at Columbia and Braid streets.The Mountie then turned on his siren and lights, but the motorcyclist ignored him. A chase ensued that saw the pair travel at speeds between 30 and 100 km/ hr and run several red lights before the man slammed into a pole. Back then, RCMP said it was up to each officer to decide when to proceed with a high-speed chase.

Term ‘genocided’ offensive Editor: Re: City going to court to oust Camp Cloud, NOW, July 25. Your reporter quotes Camp Cloud spokesperson Kwitsel Tatel as saying that the people she represents will not be “genocided off our land.” Her choice of words is deeply offensive. It hurts to be so carelessly reminded that the … members of my family, who didn’t do anything wrong, were systematically murdered during the Holocaust. The Holocaust is a widely memorialized genocide, and my extended family was actually genocided off the face of the Earth. No one is even remotely threatening to deliver similar treatment to Ms. Tatel and her ilk. On the contrary, she should be grateful that the City of Burnaby is treating them as gently as possible.

Don’t fly the Pride flag
Editor: Re: Pride flag will fly at Burnaby city hall, NOW, July 27 While I accept city council’s right to be selective and tolerant of all segments of our community – in this case the LGBT community – I strongly object to flying the pride flag over city hall during the days of Pride celebration, Aug. 9 to 13. City hall and a flag over city hall should be representative of the entire Burnaby community and not just a segment. I know many other Burnaby residents like myself who, while respectful and tolerant, do not share in nor affiliate with the Pride agenda. I think that the donation of community tax dol-
lars of $3,400 to the pride community to celebrate their day seems to be ample recognition of the occasion. But flying a Pride flag over city hall strikes me as tolerance gone too far and even smacks of politicizing the event. Leo Matusicky, Burnaby
Government can’t fill void Continued from page 6
In 2016, the Seattle area was building more apartments per capita than any other city in the United States, and construction has only sped up since then. The solution to Vancouver’s housing crisis is not to limit supply by restricting redevelopment around our transit hubs. In order for our rental rates to fall, supply must start to outstrip demand. Rental rates increased because migration to the region has exceeded available housing units. Rental rates will decrease when this trend reverses and the supply of new housing exceeds demand. Those hoping that the government can fill the void and provide subsidized housing to all takers will be sorely disappointed. The government simply does not have the resources to provide housing to anyone other than the most vulnerable members of our society. For everyone else, the voters of Burnaby must decide whether we want to continue with the wisdom of Hardwick and Corrigan and build a truly livable regional district, or experiment with polices that are doomed to failure. Hugh Woolley is a longtime Burnaby resident who studied under Hardwick at UBC.

Blues fest on track for big year Julie MacLellan
jmaclellan@burnabynow.com
Organizers are gearing up for what may just be the most successful Burnaby Blues + Roots Festival yet. For the past 18 years, the festival has been drawing music fans to Deer Lake Park in August for a day of music from local, national and international entertainers – and this year is no exception. “It’s going to be an amazing year this year,” said Jared Bowles, marketing and sponsorship coordinator. With July not yet over, Bowles was already full of enthusiasm about the festival – and, in particular, the speed of ticket sales. Earlybird priced tickets had already sold out, and Bowles said ticket sales were on pace to beat previous years. “We’re going to have a record crowd this year,” he said. “The energy in the place will be just tremendous.” This year’s festival has been pared down, musically speaking, from previous outings. Previous years have had up to 12 acts on three stages; last year, that was cut down to nine artists on two stages.This year, it’s even more streamlined: six artists on one stage for seven straight hours of music. Bowles said the change stemmed in part from feedback from past audiences, who found that the need to move from stage to stage cut down on their ability to see all the performers.
What: Burnaby Blues + Roots Festival When: Saturday, Aug. 11, 3 to 10 p.m. (gates at 2 p.m.) Who: Featuring Nathaniel Rateliff and the Night Sweats, with The Rural
Alberta Advantage, Nikki Lane, The Suffers, Begonia and Amythyst Kiah Tickets: Single tickets $50 in advance or $60 on day of show. Buy through www. burnabybluesfestival.ca.

“Everybody’s going to get to see everybody,” Bowles said. Moreover, Bowles noted, the festival decided that in order to keep attracting the crowds, it was time to really ramp up the headliner or top two acts, and go for “quality versus quantity.” He’s thrilled they’ve done that this year in the form of Nathaniel Rateliff and the Night Sweats – who, he notes, have a vibe that will appeal to all ages, with their grounding in blues and a contemporary feel. “It’s got a ton of energy, and it puts a bit of a modern twist on it too,” Bowles said, noting there are plenty of fans in the 18- and 19-year-old range, while it will also appeal to seniors. Once again, food and drink will be a bonus for
festival attendees – there will be food trucks on site and the whole site is once again licensed, meaning adults can get their beer or wine and then move around the site rather than staying in a beer garden area. The only place alcohol won’t be allowed is in the kids’ zone, which will once again be open to provide face painting, a play structure and the popular cardboard guitar making. Another new feature for festivalgoers will be the chance to take in three workshops that offer insight into the history of the Chicago, Memphis and New Orleans blues.The workshops will be in the Shadbolt Centre and offered free (with registration) to ticket holders.

be able to access the site by shuttle bus from BCIT, since there’s no on-site parking for the general public. Bowles recommends that anyone attending the festival check out its website at www.burnabybluesfestival. com to get the most out of their day. As for Bowles? He’s most looking forward to seeing which of the acts will provide that one amazing, standout performance that gets everyone talking – which, he said, always seems to happen, and often with one of the lesser-known artists on the bill. “That’s one of the things I’m most excited about, is who that artist is going to be,” he said.

FELINE FLOW:
Kitten yoga, anyone? Yoga Spirit and Wellness in Burnaby held a recent yoga session in support of VOKRA (Vancouver Orphan Kitten Rescue Association). Participants had a chance to indulge in an overload of feline cuteness while taking part in their yoga class, and proceeds went to VOKRA. See a full gallery of the fun at www.burnabynow.com.

Burnaby sisters pay tribute to karaoke mamas Janaya Fuller-Evans
editorial@burnabynow.com
Two sisters from Burnaby have shared a vision of their mother’s community with the world, through a fictional film that highlights the humour in the life of a 60-something Korean woman. Karaoke Mamas follows Sang-Mi, played by Eun Sook Choi, a 63-year-old woman who is recently divorced and has moved into a new home. She ends up breaking her television by accident, as she prepares to watch Korean dramas with her two best friends. “In order to sort of restart her life, her and her friends enter a karaoke contest to win her a new television,” said Diana Bang, co-writer and co-director of the film. “We really just wanted to feature women like my mom or in my mother’s community, the Korean Canadian community who are in their late 50s, early 60s,
and their friendships,” she added. “Just because at this point in their lives while a lot of them have kids, their kids are older or have their own kids and, at least with my mom, they spend a lot of time with each other.We wanted to focus our story on that.”
We just want the audience to kind of fall in love with these women …
Diana and her sister Andrea Bang also wanted to feature Korean women, especially those around 60. “I don’t think we get to see a lot of Korean women starring in any kind of film or TV shows,” Diana said. “I just think it’s really important to let them have
their spotlight and time.” The film has three leads, with Sang-Mi’s two friends Ji-Won, played by MiYoung, andYe-Kyung, played by Soon Ja Hwang, holding pivotal roles. Both of the actors playing the friends have some experience in Korean community theatre, but Choi did not have any acting experience. “The lead is one of my mom’s really good friends who used to sing at events, but she’s never acted before,” Diana said. “It was just really cool working with her because she just has never done anything like this before, but she took direction really, really, really well.” The three friends get into “interesting situations” in the pursuit of the television. “At the end of the day we just want the audience to kind of fall in love with these women, to say, ‘I want to hang out with them, they’re so fun,’” Diana said. Both Diana and Andrea

have experience in the film industry, but on the other side of the camera. Andrea plays Janet on CBC’s Kim’s Convenience, and Diana was recently in a miniseries for CBC, Unspeakable, which is scheduled for the winter
2019 season. She has also appeared in a number of films and television shows, including The Interview. “I’ve mostly been at it in front of the camera, so this is my first time going behind the camera and learn-
ing the process and being a part of it from beginning to end,” she said. To learn more about Karaoke Mamas, go to www. storyhive.com/project/show/ id/3627.

Communitynow Teaching kids to be ‘colour blind’ isn’t the way to address racism Mommy’s
GROUNDED Bianca Bujan
I didn’t realize that I was a visible minority until I was in Grade 9. I had moments throughout my childhood where the colour of my skin or the kink in my hair was the brunt of a joke or the cause for lingering stares, but I didn’t make the connection until I was much older. Growing up inVancouver, I was surrounded by people from different backgrounds and multiculturalism was a part of our school curriculum.We were encouraged to taste the foods of different countries and recognize the traditions of various cultures. But race – more specifically racism – was rarely discussed. The truth is, talking to kids about racism can be as awkward as talking to them about sex.When embarrassing comments are made, or curious questions arise, we
tend to redirect the conversation, ignoring the inappropriate remarks or shushing our children as an avoidance tactic. But by avoiding the topic, we’re actually doing more harm than good. Regardless of how much you try, kids are not blind to race. From early on, they
It is up to us as parents to give them the answers they seek.
notice and comment on differences, and if they aren’t encouraged to talk about their observations and ask questions, they come to their own conclusions, or they rely on the opinions of those who aren’t afraid to share their biases. By teaching our children to be colour blind, we could be teaching them to turn a
blind eye to other cultures, to racism, and to recognizing the differences in others – and themselves. Instead, we should use their awkward comments as teachable moments. Children will ask why “that woman’s skin is black,” why “that family doesn’t match,” or why that man “has a blanket wrapped around his head,” just as they will ask why “that child is moving around in a chair with wheels.”They see something that sparks their curiosity, and they speak their mind – without filtering their thoughts. As inappropriate as it may seem, all they want is the truth. It is up to us as parents to give them the answers they seek. Instead of scolding them for their comments, explain to them why some people may look, act, or speak differently than they do. Explain to them why their words may be hurtful, and use words and examples that are age-appropriate and relatable.
When we look at our southern neighbours, we tend to assume that racism is an American issue, but racism exists here in Canada and it’s important our children understand that not everyone is treated equally. By being open with our children about the prejudices that exist, and by teaching them to celebrate the differences in others, perhaps we will create a more inclusive generation that will celebrate the many colours of Canadians, not be blind to them. Bianca Bujan is a mom of three, writer, editor, and marketing consultant. Find her online at @bitsofbee.
SFU Pipe Band offers free concert The SFU Pipe Band is getting ready to take on the world once again.

The concert is set for Sunday, Aug. 5 from 2 to 3 p.m. near the Academic Quadrangle pond. The band is based at SFU and holds its practices in Burnaby and Surrey. It draws members from around the Lower Mainland, with some players from the U.S., Scotland and even New Zealand.
Three of this year’s band members are from Burnaby: longtime member Derek Milloy, Damien Burleigh and SFU student Jamie Kubasiewicz. The band is led by Pipe Major Alan Bevan, Pipe Sergeant Jack Lee (currently the world’s top solo piper) and lead drummer Reid Maxwell. At the world level, the band won its Grade 1 (the top level) category six times and placed in the top three more than 20 times. Last year saw the SFU band place fifth of the 26 bands that made the final cut. See www.sfupipeband. com for more.

Rowe ready to run for Canada at NACACs Burnaby sprinter to race on national women’s relay team Dan Olson
dolson@burnabynow.com
Whitney Rowe will be wearing the Canadian colours at the North American, Central American and Caribbean (NACAC) championships next week in Toronto. The Colorado Mesa University alum will line up as a member of the Canadian women’s 4x100metre relay as part of a 57-athlete squad who will be competing against athletes from 28 other nations, Aug. 10 to 12. Rowe, 25, is looking at building on a solid season so far, which included competing against the Chinese national team in the 4x100m relay at the Harry Jerome Classic in June, where she also placed sixth in the 200m event with a time of 24.14 seconds. Her personal best in the event, set at the 2016 Sunshine Invitational in Florida while representing Colorado Mesa, was 23.52. Based in Seattle and training under Seattle Speed head coach Mike Cunliffe, Rowe will be making a second trip to the NACACs, having captured two silver medals as a member of the 2014 Canadian under-23 relay team. As a track athlete at Burnaby Mountain Secondary, the Burnaby Striders product took it upon herself to help salvage the season when the program was on the verge of being cancelled without a coach. Later, she would train under Olympic gold medallist Robert Esmie. Rowe wrapped up her high school career in 2010 with the provincial silver in the 200m. Over four years at Colorado Mesa, the one-time dancer established eight indoor and outdoor school records and a pair of Div. 2 All-American honours. Her collegiate track record includes a number of highlights, including a third-place result in the indoor 200m at the 2015 NCAA Div. 2 championship, on the heels of having won the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference title in the same event. At the 2016 Canadian Olympic trials, Rowe finished fifth in the 200m and eighth in the 100m. She’s worked hard to become a key part of the 4x100 lineup. The progress this season has been bolstered by a strong indoor season, where Rowe finished first in three of four meets and set personal marks each time out. Her new 60m best is 7.38.

The Burnaby midget A Lakers registered their lone victory of the tournament against Kamloops, an 8-7 decision. Picking up the Warrior Fair Play award was Julian Vargas, while Thomas Vela was named to the all-star team. In Midget B, Burnaby also finished shy of the medals. Dylan Negrich was named the team’s Warrior Fair Play recipient, while Matt Bifulco earned an all-star honour. PHOTO JENNIFER GAUTHIER
Photo marks Norburn soccer beginning Former players celebrate coach who spearheaded working class neighbourhood team Dan Olson
dolson@burnabynow.com
A picture may be worth a 1,000 words, but as it fades it often rekindles fewer and fewer memories. One former Burnaby man is hoping one such old photo can rekindle some valuable history, as well as celebrate a former community leader who inspired him and his friends on to living a good life. White Rock’s Randy Burkitt and some former North Burnaby soccer teammates will join a few members of the Hill family to hang the picture at Gilmore Community School this weekend, to celebrate the memory of former coach Roy Hill. Taken 85 years ago, the picture is of Hill and his teammates after winning the 1933 B.C. soccer title while playing for Gilmore. The photo, found amongst the Hill family possessions in deteriorating condition, was sent by Burkitt to be restored. Suddenly, the washed-out image unveiled the faces of 12 boys and a coach staring stoically for the camera under a tree in the Gilmore front yard. “I couldn’t believe it, before you could barely see details in some of the faces, and you couldn’t see any of these words – it shows ’33, winners of the Provincial Cup.’ It’s really just the beginning of the story,” said Burkitt. Hill, second from the left in the
top row, would go on to be a soccer team and, in 2007, co-founder of the Norburn was inducted into the CanaAthletic Club – reflecting dian Soccer Hall of Fame. that the club also featured The team also produced boxing and lacrosse teams. another former Whitecap luIn the club’s first year, the minary, Bruce Wilson.
