Priest handed seven days in jail for protest Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

A New Westminster priest is one of the latest anti-pipeline protesters to be sentenced to seven days in jail for violating a court injunction banning protesters from blocking access to Trans Mountain facilities.

Emilie Smith, a parish priest at St. Barnabas Anglican Church, is headed to the Alouette Women’s Correctional Centre in Maple Ridge for seven consecutive days after being sentenced in B.C. Supreme Court in Vancouver Wednesday morning.

She and former Mennonite pastor Steve Heinrichs, originally from Burnaby, were arrested at Trans Mountain’s Westridge Marine Terminal on April 20 after blocking the road into the facility and refusing to leave when asked by police.

“This is a way we are called to live out the reconciliation, is in standing with the Tsleil-Waututh and others to defend this holy land,” she told the NOW before her arrest. “I think our faith teaches us that we’re not supposed to just say nice things to each other, we’re supposed to live out our faith in our bodies ... we believe in taking action.”

Heinrichs was also sentenced to seven days in jail Wednesday.

Supporters raised their fists in solidarity as Smith and Heinrichs were led, handcuffed, from the courtroom Wednesday morning, according Kris Hermes, a legal support coordinator assisting protesters.

Four protesters have now been handed seven-day jail sentences, and four more – including Order of Canada recipient Jean Swanson and former BC Teachers’ Federation President Susan Lambert – face the same sentence next Wednesday.

Singh ‘committed’ to Burnaby Kelvin Gawley

kgawley@burnabynow.com

Federal NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh finally confirmed Wednesday all the wild speculation that he plans to run for Parliament in the riding of Burnaby South.

Singh was surrounded by NDP faithful, including former Burnaby MP Svend Robinson, current BC NDP MLA Raj Chouhan, and MP Peter Julian, when he made the announcement -- talking about all the “love and energy” in Burnaby.

Singh made the announcement from a small stage at the Canadian Motion Picture Park Studio in south Burnaby.

Singh told the crowd the NDP would bring in universal Pharmacare – adding that

the Liberals only want to study the issue.

“The reality is, millions of Canadians don’t have access to medication when they need it,” he said.

“It breaks my heart.”

He also criticized the Liberals for their national housing strategy, which won’t start doling out most of its funds for another two years. Singh said this timeline is unacceptable amid the housing crisis in the Lower Mainland.

If elected, he would replace fellow New Democrat Kennedy Stewart, who recently tendered his resignation as MP to run for mayor of Vancouver.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau must call a vote to replace Stewart within six months of his official resignation date, Sept. 14, but

could decide to leave the seat empty until the general federal election is held in October 2019.

The prime minister’s office said Thursday no decision will be made on a byelection until after Stewart vacates his seat.

Either way, Singh said he will run in Burnaby again and move to the riding with his wife should he win.

“I’m committed to Burnaby South. I’m all-in on Burnaby.”

Singh has never held a seat in federal politics. He was a member of the Legislative Assembly of Ontario from 2011 to 2017 before replacing Tom Mulcair as the leader of the federal NDP. Read our Q&A with Jagmeet Singh on page 3

Q&A with Jagmeet Singh

The federal NDP leader sat down with reporter Lauren Boothby to talk Burnaby issues and running locally

J

agmeet Singh really wants to be your MP, Burnaby.

The federal NDP leader officially announced Wednesday he will run in the Burnaby South riding, either in the byelection or the general election in 2019.

NOW reporter Lauren Boothby met with Singh at Metropolis at Metrotown to talk about his first impressions of Burnaby and how he plans to win over voters as someone who currently doesn’t even live in the province.

The interview has been edited for length and clarity.

NOW: What do you think of Burnaby so far?

Jagmeet Singh: Burnaby’s awesome. Really vibrant community. I got a really strong sense about how much people care about oneanother, and care about making sure people are doing well.There’s a strong sense of community, a strong sense of really sticking it out together, and it is super diverse, really vibrant with so many different cultures and communities. I really enjoy it.

Where do you live right now?

Are you going to move to Burnaby?

That’s the plan. I’ve got to find a place to live out here. Right now, I have a place in Toronto.The GTA is really where a lot of my family is.The plan is to move out here.

Why did you pick Burnaby?

I felt an instant connection when I spoke with people out here in Burnaby.There’s just this really strong passion for social justice, people really care about taking care of one another.The issues that matter to me – housing, healthcare – these are really important issues that people here in Burnaby really care about, and making sure we protect the environment, defend the environment, and ensure we’ve got a future that’s sustainable.

Have you been looking at places to live?

I started to look at some of the neighbourhoods that I think are cool. I hear Metrotown is pretty cool because you’ve got great access to the SkyTrain. I’ve looked at the South Slope. It’s beautiful, it empties out to the Fraser so that’s pretty cool.

Kennedy Stewart only won by 547 votes in the last election, so it wasn’t quite an NDP landslide.Are you at all worried that it might be hard to get the support you need in the riding?

The question isn’t about the support for me, it’s about how I

ATTRACTING A CROWD: Jagmeet Singh was stopped several times by people during a walk through Metropolis at Metrotown on Wednesday after announcing he plans to run in Burnaby South. PHOTO LAUREN BOOTHBY

can help people out. People can’t afford to wait anymore. People are talking about the housing crisis as a crisis. People can’t afford to live in neighbourhoods they’ve grown up in. And the government, federally, the Liberals are talking about waiting two years before investing, and people can’t afford to wait two years when we hear from healthcare workers.

The pharmacist that I spoke to talks about how hard it is for her knowing that patients leave the hospital not knowing if they can actually have their prescriptions filled out.The government says we need another study.We don’t need another study, we need universal Pharmacare. So these are issues that I think are so important that we’ve got to champion right away.

On Kinder Morgan: you seemed to have changed your mind on the issue.Why take the stance you take now?

No, I have not changed my mind at all. I have firmly, firmly said this is not the right decision.

I have strongly denounced it, said, listen, we should not be spending public dollars on a 65-year-old leaky pipeline.That is not the priority for Canadians.We should be spending money on clean energy jobs for today and for tomorrow, made it clear that this is something that is problematic for the environment, for the coastline, Indigenous peoples. On a whole host of issues, this is problematic, and I’ve raised that concern.

What are you planning to do about it?

For one, make sure that we oppose this decision – this is not the

way to go ahead – and talk about the alternative. Do we want to be a nation that invests billions of dollars on technology of the past, or do we talk about investing billions of dollars in renewable energy jobs that can be created for today’s workers and for the next generation? That’s the choice we have, and I want to make sure we put that choice forward to Canadians.

What happens if the deal goes through, we end up buying the pipeline, and then the NDP wins the next election? Now you own a pipeline.What are you going to do?

We have to figure out the quickest way possible for us to make sure that our priorities are in line with what Canadians want. Canadians want a future that is sustainable, a future where we defend the environment and a future where we are investing in the direction that the global society is heading toward, which is renewable energy, clean energy, and jobs that are for the future.

Are you planning on doing anything like Kennedy Stewart has done to stop the pipeline?

To go up there and protest?

I’m honoured to have such a strong platform to talk about these issues. I want to use my platform to champion the alternative, to talk about what Canadians really want for our future, what we can be doing with our resources with our public dollars, how we can invest them in a way that would actually prepare us for the future. I want to put those ideas forward and be a strong champion for the

ford a place, that’s just so crushing.

So, acknowledging that, right now we have a provincial government in B.C. that is working hard.We’ve seen some of the steps they’re taking to address the housing crisis.

The city is taking some steps, there’s conversations around changes to those zoning bylaws.

But what we haven’t seen for the past number of years, is the B.C. Liberals didn’t invest in housing, and that’s why we’re in the position we are. Federally, ten years of Conservatives and the past number of years of Liberals, they haven’t really done anything to invest in housing.

At the federal level, there’s a responsibility to partner with the city to make sure we invest in housing and do something.We’ve got the province and the city now stepping up.We need the federal government to step up, and that’s the big gap that’s missing here.

Have you noticed the rents here are different than in Ontario?

Yes, it’s pretty rough here.

There’s a reason why housing is top-of-mind for a lot of people in Burnaby and in B.C.Toronto also has a lot of issues around the lack of opportunity for affordable housing, so I know that is an issue that’s not just B.C.-based, not just Toronto-based. In fact, we’re hearing people across Canada raising this concern. I really got the sense that this is a national issue where people are really worried about being able to find a place they can afford. So that is going to be an added challenge, but we’ll find our way around it.

Can you give any specifics on what you might do to make that happen in Burnaby?

We’ve got to have a strong voice.We’ve heard the Liberal government say it’s okay to wait.

They’ve called it a crisis, but said we’re not going to roll out the funding until two years from now.

How many times have you had a crisis and you’ve said you’re just going to wait two years before I do something?

If it’s a housing crisis, that means we need funding immediately.We need a holistic solution.

The Liberals aren’t looking at this as an entire problem around housing. People who want to go buy a home can’t, people can’t find a place to rent, there’s accessible housing issues, there’s affordability, there’s also assisted housing that there’s an issue.We’ve got to have a holistic solution that addresses all of these concerns.

One issue that some NDP supporters are facing is, while they like what the NDP stands for, Burnaby city council is affiliated with the NDP, and a lot of people are concerned with how they have handled housing.

Do you think that connection will hurt you when you run in this riding?

I think first we need to take a moment to reflect on how frustrating it is for people who can’t find a place to live, and how hard that is when you lose your place to live.

That is a real struggle people are faced with. I can’t imagine how hard that must be.

We take it for granted, the basic thing that all of us need is a place to call home, and when it’s so hard to be able to find a place and af-

What about the fact that you don’t live here? Do you think it’s going to be difficult to connect with residents because you’re from out of town?

I’m going to work really hard with the issues that I know now, and continue to learn more about the issues that come up. I know some of the issues that are really pressing are housing, healthcare and the environment.Those are issues I feel passionate about.

We’ve got a better voice pushing those issues forward.We know that Liberals haven’t done what’s needed.The Conservatives aren’t going to push forward on the issues that matter to everyday people. New Democrats are determined to make life better for people.

fact that this is not the way we want to go.We don’t believe in buying leaky pipelines, that this is not the future for Canada.

rey are asked to use the Port Mann or Alex Fraser bridges during the closures instead. Pedestrians and cyclists will be still be able to use the bridge as well as emergency vehicles.

Transit users taking the N19 Downtown NightBus will also be diverted to the Alex Fraser Bridge. Riders should expect an additional 30 minutes of travel time, noted the release.

Heatwave prompts seniors warning As the heatwave in B.C. continues — with temperatures hitting the high 30s in some areas — BC Care Providers Association is urging the public to check on their elderly friends, relatives and neighbours to make sure they’re feeling well.

“For seniors living at home or in care, regular visits by family members, neighbours and friends go a long way,” says BCCPA CEO Daniel Fontaine.

“Visitors can help identify signs of illness that could be missed over the phone.

It’s important to see how they’re doing and help them to get to places they can cool off,” he adds.

Extreme heat and poor air quality can have serious consequences for the elderly and those with respiratory issues.They’re at a greater risk for heat illness as their

bodies can’t adapt to sudden temperature changes quickly enough. Seniors can be less sensitive to these changes and might not even realize they’re overheating.

If you find a senior exhibiting signs of heat illness that can’t be resolved by moving to a cooler place, call 911 immediately.

PREVENTING HEATSTROKE IN SENIORS Heatstroke is a serious medical condition that requires emergency attention.

If left untreated, it can cause damage to the brain, heart and kidneys, and can be fatal.Taking the following precautions can reduce the risk of heat illness among seniors. * Take note of the seniors’ health conditions and medications. Check if they’re taking any prescription drugs that could impair their ability to regulate body temper-

ature. * Watch out for signs of overheating such as extreme thirst, dizziness, headache, nausea, cramps, fatigue, and cold, clammy skin. Overheating is not very dangerous on its own but can quickly lead to heatstroke.

Symptoms of heatstroke include a body temperature of 104°F or higher, inflamed skin without sweating, rapid pulse, headache, nausea, dizziness and unconsciousness. * Minimize sun exposure. If it’s hot outside stay indoors in a cool, air-conditioned environment. Keep your home cool by blocking out the sun with blinds/solar curtains, and keeping windows open at night. * Dress appropriately.

Wear light-colored clothing made of natural, breathable fabrics like cotton. Hats and scarves should be used.

Too many motorcyclists are dying on our roads

This summer has been deadly for motorcyclists – and we’re only halfway through the hot months.

Three people have died in motorcycle crashes so far this summer on Burnaby/ NewWestminster streets – the latest was just last week on Griffiths Drive, a crash police strongly hinted was due to excessive speed.

There’s also been a fourth serious crash in Burnaby, but that rider looks like he will thankfully survive.

It makes sense that the number of crashes goes up when the weather gets

warmer, but the number of fatalities is still excessive when you look at overall traffic statistics: motorcycles represent only 1.5 per cent of insured vehicles, but 10 per cent of all road fatalities.

Motorcycle riders are especially vulnerable during a crash.

Drivers of cars and trucks often have uneasy relationships with cyclists and motorcyclists.

Social media platforms are filled with angry exchanges and blame coming from both sides.

Instead of blame, let’s

Drivers of cars and trucks often have uneasy relationships with cyclists and motorcyclists. try some respect and caution.Try following these tips from the B.C. Ministry of Transportation. ! Leave space – Allow at least three to four seconds of following distance when behind a motorcycle and plenty of lane space when you pass. ! Look around – Scan in-

tersections carefully, check blind spots and take an extra moment to look for motorcycles when turning. ! Be ready to yield – Motorcycles are often closer than they seem. Since it can be difficult to tell how fast motorcycles are moving, be prepared to yield. ! Stay alert – Leave your

phone alone and avoid other distractions that take your mind off driving, or your eyes off the road.

Tips for motorcycle riders to stay safe include: ! Be seen –Dress to be seen and protected.Wear reflective clothing, bright colours and an approved helmet and riding gear. ! Target open spaces – Leave yourself as much space as possible between your motorcycle and other vehicles on the road. ! Cancel your signals – Check your signals to ensure you are not indicating a

turn when you are continuing straight ahead. ! Avoid centre of lane – When traffic slows, keep to the left or right of your lane, to allow yourself an exit strategy in case a vehicle behind you fails to stop in time.

It’s that last one that really bothers drivers.

They hate when motorcyclists zoom between cars when lined up at a traffic light.

It’s mostly due to jealousy, but whatever the cause, let’s all just calm down and share the road in a safe manner.

Sacred fire should not be extinguished

Camp Cloud exists to monitor the dangerous activities occurring at Kinder Morgan’s tank farm. Camp Cloud fulfils its responsibilities by alerting the wider community to the clearcutting of trees and the moving in of camp housing, pipes, machinery and more infrastructure within the tank farm’s gates that threaten the safety of Burnaby and our coastal waters.

Kinder Morgan’s expansion violates Coast Salish laws that require respectful relationship with and stewarding of the land and waters that we all rely upon.

We recognize that Camp Cloud’s presence is premised upon stopping Kinder Morgan and that its temporary structures will come down when its work is accomplished.

Regarding the city’s recent eviction notice and injunction application, the right thing for Burnaby to do is to find a way to respect Coast Salish laws by first requiring Kinder Morgan to comply with both Coast Salish laws and Burnaby’s bylaws before taking any hasty action against water protectors.

The structures and trailers at Camp Cloud function to support a community of water guardians.We call for flexibility with city bylaws for this temporary but necessary community that works for larger collective well-being.Ways can and need to be found to ensure both safety and continuity of Camp Cloud.

The small, symbolic and monitored fire that the elders have stated as being sa-

cred represents the spirit of the people fulfilling their responsibilities to Coast Salish laws and land. Section 2A of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms protects people’s freedom of conscience and religion and the right to tend this sacred fire. By nurturing this sacred fire, Camp Cloud is supporting work that prevents future forest fires in a time of global warming.The sacred fire is medicine against the unholy fires caused by long-term disrespect for the land.

Burnaby’s fire chief apparently has the power, but no will, to permit ceremonial fires. Systemic racism effectively means barbecues get privilege over sacred fires in Burnaby’s bylaws. If Burnaby moves to take police action against Camp Cloud, but not against Kinder Morgan, then this unfortunately falls into the trap of a divide-and-conquer pattern that furthers the defeat of our goals.

Camp Cloud has shown that it is concerned and vigilant regarding safety, which is why they have water near the fire, dampen the ground under the fire on a regular basis and have firekeepers nearby at all times.

We hope the city will find ways to peacefully respect the sacred ceremonial practices and temporary structures at Camp Cloud. If we all share the goal of protecting this coast, we also need to find ways to take care of each other and build a culture of respectful relations.

Another escape at Oakalla

City council was outraged in February after a second major escape at the Oakalla prison in less than two months. On Feb. 7, two extremely dangerous prisoners – awaiting trials for murder and armed robbery respectively – overpowered their lone guard with knives and scaled the fence.They then commandeered a car on Kingsway and forced the driver to take them to Surrey.The province had planned to phase out the 76-year-old prison in 1990, but Ald. Derek Corrigan said that wasn’t good enough and made a motion calling for immediate action.

If you don’t like the Pride flag, then please move Editor: Re: Don’t fly the Pride flag, NOW letters, Aug. 3 Another year, another Pride is in the 2018 history book. As always, a wonderful gathering of accepting diversity. This letter, however, is in reply to … a certain Mr. Leo Matusicky, (who) “strongly objects” to the flying of the Pride flag over city hall. Mr. Matusicky, a question for you – are you aware of the accepting diversity of our city? Such a statement, as you are so offended at, is … totally unacceptable in this time and age. I would invite you to St. Andrew’s Wesley United Church in the downtown core of Vancouver. An affirming, accepting church for all people. You may learn some valuable insight as to acceptance, diversity and, most of all, a word called compassion. My advice, if you just simply cannot accept the flying of the gay Pride flag at city hall, may I offer an alternative – move. A very simple solution to your situation.

The gay Pride flag will be flying over city hall for many years to come. That is how we do things here.

Indigenous people have good reason to use word

Editor: Re: Term ‘genocided’ offensive, NOW letters, Aug. 3 I am writing to you in response to Eva Derton’s

Cynthia is uent in Cantonese & English and her practice focuses on: letter in the Aug. 3 edition of the NOW. We can all agree that the Holocaust was an atrocity and it is unfortunate that the term genocide elicits negative feelings for Ms. Derton due to the traumatic events inflicted on her family.

However, what she and many of our fellow Canadians fail to realize is that Indigenous people (who also didn’t do anything wrong) have indeed suffered a genocide of their own.

In a letter sent to the UN special rapporteur on Indigenous rights, the authors, including a former CEO of the Canadian Jewish Congress, highlight these incidences: starving First Nations to death during the Western expansion of European settlers, the entire residential school system and the Sixties Scoop.

All of which meet the definition for genocide set out in the 1948 United Nations Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide.

To this day, Indigenous people are still being mistreated with a disproportionate amount of children taken from their families and put in the foster care system.

Many of the reserves nationwide do not even have access to safe drinking water for crying out loud. So rather than resenting Ms. Tatel’s choice of words, perhaps Ms. Derton could consider respecting them. And respecting the fact that we live on unceded Indigenous lands, which includes the territories of the Musqueam, Skxwú7mesh, Stó:lo, and Tsleil-Waututh Nations. I, for one, am grateful to Ms. Tatel and all of those fighting to preserve the land for my children and future generations to come.

Metrotown highrise hit by fire Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

Residents of a Metrotown apartment highrise were for forced out onto the street Wednesday by a fire in a fifth-floor suite.

Fire crews were called to the building at 7077 Beresford St. at about 3:10 p.m.

Heavy smoke and fire were showing on the outside of the building from a shattered window in the fifthfloor suite, according to fire Capt. Mike Main, one of the first in the apartment.

Inside the building, the thick smoke was contained mostly to the one suite, he said.

“The actual eyehole that you look out, smoke was coming through there,” he said. “The hallway was fine until we opened the door.”

Inside were smoke and flames, which were promptly extinguished.

There was no one in the apartment at the time, and there were no injuries, according to the fire department.

Residents didn’t evacuate the building right away

when the fire alarm went off because they thought it was just a drill, according to Jeff Shih, who lives on the 13th floor.

He said he didn’t pack up

his cat Carl and get out until he saw smoke outside.

“Nobody knew what was going on,” he said. “We reacted kind of slow.”

The cause of the three-

alarm fire is under investigation, but it appears to have started in the kitchen, according to Main.

Fourteen fire companies – 42 firefighters – responded.

People in the Middlegate area of Burnaby were surprised to see an armoured vehicle and officers in tactical gear carrying assault rifles converging on a house on Balmoral Street Wednesday afternoon.

At about 1:20 p.m., Burnaby resident Elias Ishak was at a local fastfood restaurant with a friend, when the pair looked over and saw officers advancing on the back yard of the house next door.

“There were around five guys in beige – their guns were beige; they had beige helmets,” Ishak said.

“They were going over the fence into the backyard, and they definitely had fully automatic assault rifles.”

At the front, Ishak said he

saw many more officers and an armoured vehicle converging on the house.

As he was leaving, he said he heard two loud bangs.

“I thought I was in, like, a movie,” Ishak said.

Burnaby RCMP confirmed its drug unit, with help from the Lower Mainland District Emergency Response Team, had executed a search warrant at a residence in the 6500-block of Balmoral Street Wednesday.

Three Burnaby residents – two men aged 27 and 52, and a 23-year-old woman – were arrested and later released, according to Burnaby RCMP Cpl. Daniela Panesar.

“No charges have been laid as the investigation is ongoing,” she said in an email to the NOW.

Join the fun at the first Pride Street Party Burnaby may be late to the celebration of the LGBTQ community, but organizers aren’t dwelling on the past Kelvin Gawley

kgawley@burnabynow.com

Burnaby is lagging far behind surrounding communities, when it comes to celebrating the LGBTQ community.

New Westminster,Vancouver, Surrey and many others have hosted annual Pride events for years, but as Burnaby prepares for its first-ever Pride Street Party this Saturday, organizers aren’t looking backwards.

“It is something that Burnaby needs to move forward on,” says Kimberly Barwich, program director at South Burnaby Neighbourhood House.

Barwich is among a group of locals who have spearheaded the event that will fill the block of Jubilee Avenue between Imperial Street and Nelson Avenue from noon to 4 p.m.

The party will include drag performances, music, spoken-word poetry, food and stalls from a variety of local organizations.

Performers include Indigenous dancer Shyama-Priya, dancer Ralph Escamillan, singer Stephen Scaccia and spoken word artists Jillian Christmas and Johnny D Trinh.

“We’re going to have a lot of fun,” Barwich said.

The event will send a strong message to the community that everyone belongs here, Barwich said.

“I think that when you are looking at any smaller community – whether those

This year marks Burnaby’s first ever Pride street party, celebrating the LGBTQ community. PHOTO JENNIFER GAUTHIER, FILES are immigrants or folks are part of, say, the LGBTQ community – I think that we have to work pretty hard to make sure that those groups of folks are included.

So it takes additional effort to make sure everybody is at the table.”

No matter your sexual orientation or gender identity, you’re welcome at Sat-

Pride is a powerful opportunity to bring visibility, compassion and a greater understanding … urday’s street party, Barwich said.

“I don’t celebrate Diwali, but do I go to celebra-

tions that are on the street that celebrate that? Absolutely, to learn a bit more about that community, to

celebrate together,” Barwich said.

Fellow organizer Evelyn McGowan from the BurnabyYouth Hub had this to say about the event: “Pride is a powerful opportunity to bring visibility, compassion and a greater understanding of LGBTQ2S+ identities to all community members in

Burnaby. It’s a chance to celebrate the vibrancy and diversity of the LGBTQ2S+ community, while acknowledging the deep history of the fight for equity and justice for all gender identities and sexual orientations.

“And there’s glitter.”

For all the details about the Pride Street Party, see www.burnabypride.com.

High-flying circus show rolls in to Deer Lake High-flying acrobatics, music and comedy join forces for an upcoming performance at Deer Lake Park.

The Quebec City-based Machine de Cirque is bringing its Truck Stop production to the stage at Deer Lake on Aug. 16 and 17.

The show follows the story of a motley group of campers who hitch up their trailer and set out on a journey across the continent from east to west. Expect to see five different sets, all unpacked from a single trail-

er, as the group travels from the Atlantic to the Prairies and through the Rockies.

“With a well-stocked cooler, windows wide open and music blaring, they are all set for an epic odyssey on wheels,” a press release says.

“Salty air that fills the lungs, enshrouding forests, electrifying cities, breathtaking mountains and plains that stretch as far as the eye can see hold the promise of an unforgettable trip.”

The show is brought to life by five performers and a musician.

It’s on Thursday, Aug. 16 at 7 p.m. and Friday, Aug. 17 at 4 and 7 p.m. It’s outside, and it runs rain or shine, so go prepared for the weather – if it rains, have an umbrella, as the show will go on. It will be on the South Plaza at the Shadbolt Centre, 6450 Deer Lake Ave. Tickets are $10 and available now at tickets.shadbolt centre.com or 604-2053000.

For more about the show, see www.machinedecirque. com.

Officer’s lark now point of pride at musical ride

2018 BUICK ENCLAVE

player, so a lot of people get cut just because they don’t blend with the team.”

The other half, of course, is riding – and the basic fear of getting on a 1,200-pound animal.

“I was terrified,” Cunningham says.

Musical ride instructors ease new members into the training, he says, but he remembers a few harrowing moments, like the first time he and his mount, Renoir, picked up a canter with the rest of the team in training.

The group was cantering in a small circle single file, when an instructor called for him to “go large,” or lead the rest of the group out of the small circle to canter around the whole arena.

He and Renoir got to the far end of the arena before they realized no one had followed them.

“I tensed up; Renoir tensed up, and we flew back, stirrups flying off the side, at a full gallop, straight into the other horses cantering safely in a circle, causing mayhem.

The horses scattered, they bucked, they reared. I think my heart stopped.”

Saddle up: Then-Const. Brett Cunningham poses with Bruce at the PNE in Vancouver in 2013. PHOTO CONTRIBUTED

Later, he remembers a training session gone awry on a mount named Bentley.

Something startled the animal, Cunningham says, and sent the Mountie face first into the arena wall.

“It started with a rear and then turned into a bunch of bucking, and I flew off the back of him and slid off the wall and landed on my feet,” he says.

And if you think the lances riders carry throughout the show couldn’t do any harm, think again.

One of the instructors at the Ottawa training centre when Cunningham was there had had his leg skewered by a lance during a drill in 1986.

By the time the team starts touring, however, audience members usually see

only 32 scarlet-clad Mounties and 32 black horses moving in perfect unison.

Ultimately, a successful ride is a feat of teamwork, he says, not just between members, but also between each rider and the unique, individual animal he or she is riding.

Cunningham was on the ride from 2012 to 2015, before going back to regular policing in NorthVancouver. He joined the Burnaby detachment three months ago.

He says he misses the ride: the teamwork, the horses and meeting regular Canadians from all corners of the country.

The experience, however, has left a lasting mark on his work as a regular Mountie.

“I find myself as a police officer now, being much more personable, with clients, both victims and accused, and not being as guarded.”

When the RCMP musical ride hits Swangard Stadium nextWednesday, one Burnaby Mountie will be scrutinizing every intricate move and figure.

Cpl. Brett Cunningham was with the ride for three years – and the local Mountie knows all too well how quickly things can go south.

During one of his first tours in 2013, the ride was performing in a small Northern Ontario town when a water fountain suddenly went off, shooting a plume of water into the air near the show grounds.

“The horses scattered,” Cunningham says. “No one knew where their position was.There were horses just dancing in the middle, horses standing in the way of other horses. It was chaos.”

Watching an experienced team of scarlet-clad Mounties executing complicated formations like the star and the wagonwheel on trotting and cantering horses, the ride looks pretty effortless

and foolproof.

But riders know it’s not, according to Cunningham.

He didn’t think he’d ever end up on the ride because he had zero horse experience. Five years into his RCMP career, though, during a posting in Fort St. John, he ticked off the musical ride on an annual career interest questionnaire almost as a joke. He compares it to astronaut training – sure you’d go if you got picked, but that was never going to happen.

But no experience is required to get into the basic musical ride course, and once he was in, he says he gave it his best shot.

His mother was a Mountie who joined the force in the ’70s, he explains, and the musical ride is the iconic image of the RCMP. “So it’s a point of pride, I guess,” he says.

Half the battle is being able to work with other people, according to Cunningham.

“There’s such a close-knit group travelling all the time together,” he says. “You have to be a good team

til they’re ready to fly. Some bats have adapted to living in human structures, such as under roofs or siding, in attics, barns and other buildings.

While some see having bats as a benefit for insectcontrol, others may want help removing them.The BC Wildlife Act makes it illegal to exterminate or harm bats. Bat exclusion – using devices to deter bats from nesting – is only allowed in the fall and winter once the bats are no longer in the

building.

But the BC Community Bat Program wants to help.

You can visit bcbats.ca or call 1-855-9-BC-BATS ext.

They also ask that you report any bat deaths in colonies in houses, barns or bat houses. Don’t touch a dead bat with your bare hands.

They can carry rabies. If you or your pet have been bitten or scratched by a bat, talk to your doctor or veterinarian.

If you’ve been seeing bats around your home, you’re not the only one.

Surprise visits from bats are common this time of year. Baby bat “pups” are just learning to fly, and you might see them practising their insect-hunting skills around your property.

Some might even unintentionally find their way into your house. If you see one, don’t panic.

“The young are new to echolocation and may accidently fly into your house as they learn to orient themselves,” Danielle Dagenais, a biologist and coordinator with the BC Community Bat Program for the Greater Vancouver-Squamish region, said in a press release.

“Don’t be (alarmed), they will find their way out if you leave a window or door open for them.”

Communitynow Are you addicted to air conditioning? You’re not alone Is climate change turning us into AC pigs?

According to BC Hydro, the use of air conditioning has skyrocketed to deal with the summer heat.

The report Cold Comfort: The rising use (and cost) of air conditioning in B.C. reveals that A/C use in the province has more than tripled to 34 per cent since 2001.This upward trend

will likely continue, the report says, as 25 per cent of British Columbians are considering purchasing an air conditioner this summer.

“Record heat and long stretches of dry weather are becoming the new norm in the province, and BC Hydro’s meteorologists are predicting another hot summer this year,” said Chris O’Riley, BC Hydro’s presi-

dent and chief operating officer. “While we typically see higher electricity demand in the cold, dark winter months, summer demand for power is rising largely due to higher A/C usage.”

More homes in the Southern Interior use air conditioning than any other region in B.C. “This is not surprising given places such as Osoy-

oos, Lytton and Penticton are often among Canada’s summer hotspots; however, the use of air conditioners across the province is growing,” said a news release.

In the relatively moderate climate of south coastal B.C., a trend towards highrise apartments – often glass-walled with little air flow – is helping to drive A/C adoption. In the past

three years, the use of portable or room air conditioners in the Lower Mainland has grown by 23 per cent.

“Cold comfort comes at a cost,” said the news release. “Running a central air conditioner for nine hours a day over the summer costs around $300, compared to just $6 for a fan for the same amount of time.”

A recent survey commis-

sioned by BC Hydro also found 93 per cent of British Columbians are adding to their energy bills by setting air conditioning units lower than the BC Hydro-recommended 25C. Fully 20 per cent of respondents in the Lower Mainland and on Vancouver Island set their thermostat between 17 and 19C.

Communitynow Here are the secrets to cooking tasty crustaceans Chef Dez

ON COOKING editorial@burnabynow.com

Whether it’s steak and lobster or linguine and clams, shellfish is a popular choice at market seafood counters and restaurants.

Shellfish can be divided into two main categories – crustaceans and mollusks.

All shellfish are invertebrate sea creatures, meaning that they do not have an internal bone system like fish, which are called vertebrates.

Almost all shellfish have a hard outer shell that protects their soft bodies from predators and the environments they thrive in.

Crustaceans is the grouping that represent crabs, lobsters, shrimp, crayfish, etc. I will focus on crabs and lobsters in this column, while leaving the discussion on shrimp, prawns and crayfish for the next.

Buying shellfish live is almost always preferred, but many don’t have this option at their marketplace.When live is an option, it is usually only crabs and lobsters in the crustacean family that are available.

There are many ways to cook a live crab or lobster.

The most common way is to submerse it headfirst into a pot of boiling water to kill it instantly. Crabs are then boiled for approximately six to 10 minutes depending on their size, and lobsters are usually five to six minutes per pound.

Due to the labour required of picking the dis-

persed meat from crabs, they are almost always cooked this way rather than trying to extract raw flesh, which is more difficult.

Another option for killing lobsters is to hold it down firmly on a cutting board and plunge the tip of a chef’s knife into the head before cooking it.This should be done immediately before cooking it to ensure optimal freshness and flavour, as the rule of thumb for raw crab or lobster is to cook it in the live form. Raw crab and lobster flesh deteriorates very rapidly.

Buying shellfish live is almost always preferred Lobsters are also tasty if split in half and opened up, brushed with oil, lemon juice, and seasonings and then grilled on the barbecue.When splitting in half, you can cut right through to serve as two halves, or cut from the underside but not all the way through the top shell and serve as a whole split lobster.

If prepared in this manner, you will want to weigh down the tail portion as it will curl up and lose contact with the grill. Another way to avoid this is to cut the tail section completely through while leaving the body halves connected by the top shell.

With either grilling option, the large claws should

be cracked beforehand as this will assist in cooking the claw meat at the same speed as the exposed body and tail flesh.

When working with or eating whole crab or lobster, the stomach in both cases is located just behind the eyes, and should be removed and discarded.With crabs, the feathery gills located on each side of the body under the shell are also discarded.

Dear Chef Dez: I know it’s better to buy live shellfish, but our grocery store only offers frozen crab legs.Are they cooked already? For a nice crab dinner, how do I cook them and for how long?

– Harold M., Saskatchewan

utes, but the safest way is to use an instant read thermometer.There is almost always a cracked part of the shell to allow for the thermometer to be inserted.

Find the thickest flesh to do this with, and serve when the internal temperature reaches 170 degrees Fahrenheit.They are best served simply with dishes of warming melted butter for dipping.

Sea to table: The secret to tasty crustaceans lies in the cooking technique. PHOTO NADINE DOERLÉ, PIXABAY

Dear Harold: Usually frozen crab legs are already cooked prior to freezing, and the easiest way of preparing them is in a steamer. Submersing them in boiling water, which is a preferred technique for live crabs, will cause more flavour loss with frozen crab legs rather than steaming.

The amount of cooking time will depend on the size of the crab legs.

Bring a couple of inches of water to a full boil in a pot while in the meantime arranging your crab legs as evenly as possible in a steamer basket. Once the water is boiling, place the filled steamer over the water and immediately cover with a lid.

Normally the cooking process should take anywhere from six to 10 min-

Communitynow Kid drops an F-bomb? Science says that’s no big deal Mommy’s

GROUNDED Bianca Bujan

Growing up, my mom’s “potty mouth” consisted of words like “sugar!” and “fudge!” – and those were only uttered in the most serious of circumstances. One stubbed toe, and no baking ingredient was off the table. Perhaps that’s why, even though I’m turning 40 this year, I have yet to utter a profanity in the presence of my parents.

This isn’t because I don’t swear (I have three kids and zero patience – trust me, it slips), but because I was raised in a swear-free home, where the use of cuss words was associated with unintelligence and deemed “unladylike.”

Imagine my horror when my littlest child, with her cherubic face and innocent eyes, looked at me one day and dropped an F bomb like it was just another letter in the alphabet. I knew freaking out would only encourage a repeat, so instead, I spoke to her calmly with a

straight face, explaining that her word choice was inappropriate.

The reality is, keeping kids completely curse-free is a challenge. Covering a child’s ears or flashing dirty looks when curse words are uttered in public isn’t going to keep their young ears expletive-free, especially when surrounded by cringe-worthy songs that drop unexpected profanities, and careless uncles who curse copiously.

If your child utters the ‘F’ word, don’t worry, science says it’s OK. According to Dr. Emma Byrne, a scientist in the field of artificial intelligence and the author of Swearing is Good forYou: The Amazing Science of Bad Language, “learning how to use swearing effectively, with the support of empathetic adults, is far better than trying to ban children from using such language.”

Byrne’s argument is backed by research that has found that profanity soothes the brain, reduces anxiety, and even relieves pain.The self-titled “Sweary Scientist” disagrees with the tendency Homfray Sept 20 - Oct 15, Stay 3 nights and pay for 2

for parents to wait until their children are older to discuss the use of strong language, opting instead to allow the use of swear words from an earlier age.

What is most intriguing is the research that ties potty mouths to pain thresholds. In an article in Wired titled “The Science ofWhy Swearing Reduces Pain,” psychologist and author of Black Sheep:The Hidden

Keeping kids completely curse-free is a challenge.

Benefits of Being Bad, Richard Stephens, discovers through conducting various tests, that swearing can be

an effective pain killer.

When exploring the association between pain and swearing, Stephens found that “minced oaths” – those socially acceptable versions of swearing that we use when we might be overheard – didn’t have the same healing effect as the harsher swear words.

I don’t mind letting my kids experiment with swearing, but there’s a caveat to

cursing; they have to know that there’s a time and a place. A pain-filled profanity after a stubbed toe is one thing, but ill-intended name calling is never acceptable.

Kids are going to experiment with language, so I’d prefer that they do so in my presence.

STM’s Marchese puts baseball dream in play

Burnaby native will pack glove for scholarship to Niagara University Dan Olson

dolson@burnabynow.com

Standing in the box, Josh Marchese brings a flexible approach to his role.

A batter’s box isn’t very large, but the six-foot-two Marchese can flip his strategy in the matter of seconds, depending upon pitch and the count.

After all, there’s nothing sweeter than the sound of a well-hit ball.

When you’re hot as a hitter, it’s probably the best feeling

For Marchese, baseball is where his comfort zone begins.

“I’ve always had a good average. I hate striking out, that’s one of my pet peeves,” the Burnaby teen said. “I’m not a fan of it. If there are two strikes, I’ll get in to a lower stance and just put the bat on the ball, keep it simple and figure it out. I’m not a fan (of striking out).

Especially when there’s a moment when we need a hit, it’s just not what I like to do.”

Hitting is his calling card, and as a member of the Langley Blaze of the B.C. Premier Baseball League, it’s how he contributed to a

terrific season. Although the Blaze didn’t win the provincial title, they went down swinging in a series against Abbotsford.

Marchese delivered a tworun single in the final and, in the semifinal, connected on a grand slam that erased a 4-0 deficit.

It’s those kinds of clutch moments that have earned the St.Thomas More grad a new opportunity, as a freshman with the Div. 1 Niagara University Purple Eagles next month.

“They’re a Division I program, so that was always my dream, to play Div. 1 baseball,” Marchese said of the Catholic university in Lewiston, N.Y. “They said I would play as a freshman and work into their program, move my way up, which is important.”

Opportunity is key, and Marchese says there’s no doubt that it’s a big adjustment heading to the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference. Pitchers will bring a different kind of heat, but the Burnaby minor baseball product isn’t fazed by it.

Over the past year alone, he’s been taking his cuts against players from the college level as well as minor pro levels, thanks to provincial team and the Blaze travelling team.

Last year he played in the Perfect Games World Series in Florida, where a group of Canadians joined some Dominican players to make

a roster and compete in a heavily scouted tourney.

“There were 120 teams and 1,200 scouts. It was an amazing tournament. (The scouts) drove around in golf carts and came to your field.

We did fairly well, although it was a different team – we were on a Canada-Dominican team that ended up ranked 50th in the world.”

This past spring, Langley

headed to Arizona and tested its mettle in a tour that saw them play pros from the rookie, Single-A and Double-A circuits of the Major League farm systems.

“We were facing guys who throw low to high 90s – one of the guys warming up in the pen was throwing 106, 107,” he recalled.

“It was an eye-opening experience. In B.C. there are

probably one or two who can throw above 90. It was just incredible.”

Having started playing the game at the age of 10, Marchese grew quickly to love the diamond game and its many nuances. He pitched and played the infield, but in recent years left the throwing to others and concentrated on wielding a heavy stick.

Last year, his first with Langley, saw him post the league’s sixth-best batting average at .374, with 25 runs batted in. Only 15 times in 107 at bats did he strike out.

“I only had him for one year (in Langley), but as far as a player, Josh improved a tonne on defence. He worked hard at getting Continued on page 27

Burnaby Lake rowers on board for u23 world gold

Put another gold medal around the neck of a pair of Burnaby Lake rowers.

Stephanie Grauer and Madison Mailey added to their medal pile last week as part of Team Canada’s under-23 women’s eight squad at the world championships in Poznan, Poland.

The Canadians edged the powerhouse Netherlands by nearly two seconds with a time of 6:04.61.

It was the second year in a row that the Canadian u23 squad, with Grauer and Mailey aboard, captured the world title. A year ago they won it in Bulgaria with a time of 6:00.13.

This year’s competition started well, as Canada posted the fastest time in their heat. In the final, the U.S. grabbed the lead in the early going before Canada made its move.

The Canadians overtook the

Americans in the third 500 metres to defend their title.

Grauer, 21, is entering her senior year at Stanford University on a rowing scholarship. A two-time first-team All-American, Grauer’s first foray on the national team was in 2015, when she made the junior squad.

A native of West Vancouver, Mailey joined the Burnaby Lake club as a 15-year-old, gaining valuable training under the tutelage of coach Cinda Ewton. From there she emerged as a national level talent, making the junior national team for 2013 and ’14.

Mailey wrapped up her collegiate career this past summer at Boston’s Northeastern University, where she earned a conference second-team All-American honour. She helped Northeastern advance to its fifth straight regional title and appearance at the NCAA championships.

Ex-Laker nets award

The Burnaby junior Lakers former captain Patrick Shoemay isn’t going to the Minto Cup, but he did receive some welldeserved accolades this week.

Shoemay, who joined the New Westminster Salmonbellies after a mid-June trade, was named the Reginald ‘Pop’ Phillips Memorial award winner as the B.C. Junior A Lacrosse League’s best defensive player.

Shoemay tallied a goal and eight assists over 15 games split between Burnaby and New West over the past season.

Entering his third year at Rochester Institute of Technology this September, Shoemay spent three seasons with the Lakers before being traded for two prospects and two draft picks. New West was eliminated in the league final 4-2 by Coquitlam.

Two strikes a good spot

Continued from page 26 better,” remarked Blaze coach Jamie Bodaly. “His hitting was good already, but he’s taken it to the next level. He’s a tough out, with what we call an advanced approach. He hunts his pitches and is ready to make adjustments in the count.”

A former starting goalkeeper with a Cliff Avenue metro team, Marchese was a starting lineman with STM’s football team all through high school. Some of his best friends – Tyler Eckert, Sajjan Shokar and David Osho – are heading to universities (Laurier, Windsor and Toronto, respectively) back east to play

football.

For Marchese, however, the sport of choice always came back to the batter’s box.

“When you’re hot as a hitter, it’s probably the best feeling,” he said. “It’s basically a gift that I can still play baseball and go to school. It’s a way to go to school and not pay as much.”

He credits his parents for supporting him and being there for nearly every game, which tallied 130 the past year. On the diamond, Marchese has always looked up to former Boston Red Sox slugger David Ortiz, from whom he earned the ‘Papi’

nickname. He’s also known as ‘Cheese,’ and not because he can’t lay-off the high heat.

While he’ll be in a new school with new teammates, Marchese said he’s eager to do the work to earn his playing time. And when he gets to the plate, there’s no such thing as a big hole.

“A majority of my hits tend to be with two strikes,” he said. “I like being at twostrikes – it’s either do-or-die.

You either strike out and look bad, or you get a hit and be clutch.Two-strike atbats I like.”
