Hurley, Corrigan argue over ‘stove tax’ Kelvin Gawley

kgawley@burnabynow.com

A so-called “stove tax” is unfairly burdening Burnaby families with disabled children, mayoral hopeful Mike Hurley says. The secondary suite levy, brought in last year, charges homeowners an additional 50 per cent on their water and sewer bill if they have more than one stove in their home. Mayor Derek Corrigan defended the measure as a creative strategy to recoup amenity costs, while avoiding a “witch hunt” for illegal suites during a housing crisis. If the city only applied the surcharge to homes with legalized suites, Corrigan said it would then have to weed out illegal suites across the city to be fair. Many homeowners would then face thousands of dollars in renovation costs and would likely take their rentals off the market instead, according to Corrigan. The city currently charges $1,198 annually in combined sewer and water utilities to single-family homeowners without an additional stove and $1,767 to those with an extra stove. “These are not extreme charges,” Corrigan said. The surcharge applies to any home with a second stove, whether it has an occupied suite or not. Homeowners can remove their additional stove and invite city staff to inspect their home. Once it has been confirmed they only have one stove, they will no longer be charged the levy. Hurley said he supports the intent of the secondary suite levy but believes it should come with exceptions. He estimates there are some 1,500 to 2,000 homes with second stoves who should not be charged the extra utility fees. Continued on page 3

Backlash feared after murder charge

Ibrahim Ali was privately sponsored byVancouver church, residents of Bowen Island Cornelia Naylor

The pastor of a church that helped sponsor a Syrian refugee family said it was “absolutely devastating” to find out one of the family members has been charged with murder in the death 13-yearold Marrisa Shen. Ibrahim Ali, 28, was arrested last Friday, according to police, and has been charged with firstdegree murder in the death of the Burnaby teen, whose body was found in Central Park on July 19, 2017. Ali came to Canada about 17 months ago as a privately sponsored refugee, the NOW has learned.

Members of the Syrian community will be lighting candles Friday morning outside B.C. Provincial Court in Vancouver where Ali is scheduled to appear. Continued on page 3

Pipeline foes say the ﬁght isn’t over Maria Rantanen

editorial@burnabynow.com

There was some cautious optimism among environmentalists in Burnaby on Saturday as they came together in Forest Grove to learn about salmon and creek rehabilitation, just down the pathway from the Watch House. For months, this was ground zero for opposition to the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion, but, as the courts have put the expansion on ice, the protests are largely gone. BROKE, Burnaby Residents Opposing Kinder Morgan Expansion, was taking part in the Save Our Salmon event by the soccer fields in Forest Grove. BROKE volunteer Ruth Walmsley said she welcomed last week’s court decision that put a halt to the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion. “We were very, very pleased to see what we’ve been saying for years has actually been confirmed by the courts,”Walmsley said, meaning that the rights of the First Nations and the marine environment were ignored during the process. Walmsley added that she didn’t think the consultation on the pipeline expansion constituted meaningful dialogue. “It’s clear it was not a two-way street and the government representatives were there as notetakers,” she said. Walmsley pointed out that the Save the Salmon event was part of an inter-

national day of action, and it was organized to continue to get out their message about the environment. “In spite of this court decision, the Trudeau government does not seem to be getting the message that fossil fuels are the past and renewable energy is the fu-

ture,”Walmsley said. “It’s irresponsible to be investing in ramping up fossil fuels at this point in time and we need to invest in a clean-energy future and not one where we’re continuing to expand the tarsands and increase carbon emissions,” Walmsley added.

Lynn Perrin, a board member from Pipe-up, which has a mandate to educate communities on the pipeline and plans for its expansion as well as to look at alternatives to “tarsands,” said her organization has worked with all the litigants in the court case, and she

was happy for them with the decision. However, she added, they are still wary. “It seems they are making the same mistake they made before they decided to support it, in that they think they can just do consultation and all the scientific stuff in a few months,” she said. But looking at the “numerous and various concerns,” she didn’t think it was possible to have meaningful consultation in a few months. Katherin Roivas, who is Chipewyan First Nation but currently lives in Vancouver, pointed out that while Saturday’s event was about celebrating and protecting the salmon, it tied into the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion opposition. “The salmon is one of the reasons why it was important to stop the Kinder Morgan expansion,” Roivas said. “The Kinder Morgan expansion (protest) was about a lot things, about protecting the water, but it was also about protecting the salmon, protecting the land, protecting the orcas, protecting the residents of Burnaby Mountain from catastrophe.” For the local First Nations, the Tsleil-Waututh, the water in the inlet provided a food source, salmon, mussels and more, for thousands of years, Roivas said. “So, it’s vital they stand up and protect the inlet, protect the water, so it doesn’t get polluted, it doesn’t get destroyed because of a tanker spill,” she added.

Anti-SOGI candidate to run for school board Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

A former Christian TV host and outspoken critic of the province’s sexual orientation and gender identity resource for schools is running for a spot at the Burnaby school board table. Laura-Lynn Tyler Thompson, a Christian blogger, author and former co-host of The 700 Club Canada, wasted no time stating what she believes to be the most important issue facing B.C. students. “I think the most important issue facing schools is that parents are highly alarmed and very upset that children are being taught gender-fluid ideology. It has no place in school,” she told

the NOW. At rallies and on social media,Thompson has spoken against SOGI 123, a resource developed a couple years ago to help B.C. schools support gay, lesbian and transgender students and make schools more inclusive for them. Supporters of the resource and the LGBTQ community have organized counter-protests at anti-SOGI events Thompson has been a part of, and she has become a controversial figure for her views. When asked what should be put in place instead of SOGI 123 to help make schools more inclusive, she said, “What has always been there, love.The school is not there to solve those prob-

grew up attending mostly private schools, she said. Two of her three children also attended private schools, while the third went to public schools. “I like private schools, personally,” she said. “I think that if you can afford it, many parents can’t afford that these days. If you can afford it, private schools are wonderful environments.” Thompson, a New Westminster resident, said she chose to run in Burnaby because she anticipates the campaign will be “volatile.” Since she started campaigning against SOGI publicly, she said she has received death threats and been called names, including homophobe, transphobe, Hitler and bigot.

Extra money raised helped sponsor man who is now charged Continued from page 1 In a statement after the charges were announced, prominent members of the community condemned Shen’s murder and expressed sympathy for the family. “At this moment of deep sadness, we earnestly join all Canadians in mourning and hope that this terrible incident won’t result in a backlash against refugees,” reads the statement in part. In late 2015, Bowen Island residents undertook a campaign to raise $30,000 in 30 days to bring Ali’s brother, his sister-in-law and their three children to Canada. But the community ended up exceeding their goal and raising an extra $15,000, allowing them to bring Ali and a younger brother as well, according to a January 2016 article in the Undercurrent. “So, if we can swing it, we are trying to bring them here,” one organizer is quoted as saying. “It would mean they could have a family reunion along with family that is in Burnaby.” Organizers of the 30k/30day campaign did not respond to NOW requests for comment.

Hurley would add exemptions Continued from page 1 “If you have a summer kitchen for your family,” Hurley said, “or if you have a mobility-challenged child that happens to be living in the basement and you’re trying to teach them lifeskills … this is a real big challenge.” For families with disabled children seeking more autonomy, Hurley said that extra charge could mean the difference between affording an annual bus pass or not. Hurley said he would retain the “stove tax” but would allow for homeowners to plead their case to city staff, who could exempt them from the levy. Corrigan acknowledged that the levy may unfairly affect some residents. “There’s always exceptions that make it difficult for applying rules,” he said.

Local Greens launch campaign Maria Rantanen

editorial@burnabynow.com

Metrotown station was dotted on Saturday around midday with people wearing green T-shirts and handing out flyers, launching the campaign of the Burnaby Municipal Green Party, as people came and went from the SkyTrain station. Joe Keithley, who is seeking a council seat under the local Green party banner, said he’s confident momentum is building for his party, especially after its success in the last provincial election. Keithley, of DOA musical fame, was originally planning to run against longtime mayor Derek Corrigan. But when former firefighter Mike Hurley stepped up as a mayoral candidate this time around, Keithley decided to seek a council seat as he knew his mayoral challenge was a “long shot.” “A council vote carries as much weight as the mayor’s vote,” Keithley said, adding he thinks he can effect some positive change as a councillor. The Greens are running

six council candidates and two candidates for school board. Currently, the mayor and all eight councillors in Burnaby belong to the Burnaby Citizens Association. Keithley acknowledged the BCA’s hold on local politics, but he thinks the Green party’s success provincially can carry over locally. “Part of the message we’re putting out is it’s time for a change, time for fresh blood, some new ideas,” he

said, and his group is out letting people know there are other parties besides the “traditional” ones. “People are tired of traditional old parties and their old ideas,” he added. “It’s them against us.The Green party, the idea is we work with other people.” Keithley said he has always believed in people-centred politics and grassroots politics, which is reflected in his music. The main issue for the Green party in this election is housing affordabili-

ty, Keithley explained, and their platform includes committing $10 million per year in either cash or land to build affordable units, for which they would seek matching funds from the provincial and federal government. Revitalizing co-op housing and one-on-one replacement of rental housing in Metrotown and around Burnaby are also priorities, he added. Rick McGowan is one of the six Burnaby Municipal Green Party candidates running for a seat on council – the last time he ran, in 2011, he came last in the council run. “It’s a long-term process – you can’t just show up at election time,” McGowan said. “You have to be there between elections and raising issues.” McGowan said the core principles of the Green party – participatory democracy, environmental concerns, sustainable development – align with his principles. “I think the Green party tries to live by those values – they’re not aspirational goals but actual targets.”

No mayoral candidate for BFC Burnaby First Coalition announced Thursday it will not be running a mayoral candidate in the Oct. 20 election to challenge incumbent Derek Corrigan and the other declared candidate, Mike Hurley. The BFC was looking at adding more council candidates to make up a full slate, plus a mayoral candidate. The BFC said in a news release that it used a consulting company and spoke to people in the community, concluding that “by running a strong mayoral candidate, the likely outcome would be a tight three-way race. Regardless of who prevailed, they would not have a strong mandate, contrary to the BFC’s agenda for change.” “BFC encourages everyone to compare the track record of the current mayor, both the good and the bad, against the value of change offered by Mike Hurley, along with his long community service,” the release said. “The key point is that the community weighs status quo vs. the need for a change. A decisive two-way race is in everyone’s best interest.”

City now Rankin returns to politics Kelvin Gawley

kgawley@burnabynow.com

Longtime Burnaby council member Lee Rankin, who served for 22 years from 1983 to 1999 and from 2002 to 2008, is making an independent bid to get his chair back. “I’m going to bring a lifetime of experience,” he said. The lawyer is joining many others in the race by putting housing issues at the forefront of his campaign. “We cannot allow any more evictions of renters in Metrotown,” Rankin said. “We need to rethink our housing strategy in the city.” Rankin is proposing a series of policies that would ensure all demolished rental units in the city are replaced by new rentals charging the same rates. He also said any person displaced in a demoviction – where apartment buildings are destroyed to make way for new developments – should be the first given an opportunity to move into the new units. He also wants to see a

new renters’ advocate position created at city hall.This staffer would help tenants across the city facing challenging situations such as demovictions and problem landlords, he said. Rankin ran for council with TEAM Burnaby in 2008 and 2011.They unsuccessfully tried to unseat the Burnaby Citizens Association (BCA), which has swept all seats on council and school board in the last three elections. In the 1980s and 1990s,

Rankin was a member of the BCA before splitting with the slate that has dominated local politics for decades. Rankin said he hopes to become a voice of opposition on council to improve debate, which he says is crucial to a healthy democracy. “Open debate and a healthy airing of different opinions are needed in Burnaby,” he said. “Any elected body needs checks and balances. I can provide that oversight as an independent councillor.” Rankin also said he is a “strong environmentalist” who opposes the expansion of the Trans Mountain pipeline. He said he’s supportive of the series of legal challenges the city has embarked upon to oppose the project, despite the fact it has cost $1.1 million and no judge has ruled in favour of the city’s arguments. He also said he wants to stop “rat running” traffic in North Burnaby. He said a comprehensive traffic review could lead to new measures such as traffic circles.

Honour Terry Fox by raising some money

Before there was Facebook, Snapchat or Twitter, a curly-haired young man set out on a lonely trek to do something about cancer. He had a small crew, a van and a dream to raise $1 for every Canadian by running his Marathon of Hope across our nation. Although Terry Fox’s journey was cut short by the return of his cancer, the kid from Port Coquitlam was able to achieve his goal, with the support of others, raising more than $750 million since the first Terry Fox Run

was held Sept. 13, 1981. Amazingly,Terry achieved his dream without the need for a social media profile. And, as the current advertising campaign for the Terry Fox Run notes,Terry had no “likes” and no social media followers but still made a difference in the lives of cancer sufferers and their families. He is now an international icon, an inspiration to many who participate in the annual Terry Fox Run that takes place once again this Sunday, Sept. 16.

Fox challenged outdated notions of what it means to have a disability, showing there are no limits. Sometimes it takes more than a perfectly coiffed selfie photo and an Instagram account with thousands of followers to make a media star. Sometimes it takes grit, determination and the willingness to take a personal risk to make a difference and inspire others.

That is indeed what Terry Fox did when he embarked on a journey that took him 5,373 kilometres from St. John’s, N.L. to Thunder Bay, Ont. Along with his incredible fundraising efforts, Fox challenged outdated notions of what it means to have a

disability, showing there are no limits to what an amputee can do. He proved that you can accomplish your dream whatever your challenge, if you only make a start. And so, instead of trying to win social media followers, one Tweet, follower or “like” at a time,Terry Fox won our hearts, taking one difficult step at a time. This Sunday, we have a chance to do the same. Participate in your annual Terry Fox Run or support the cause of ending cancer

through research with a donation. Doing one of those things won’t make you a media star, but it will help make a difference for others, a better measure of human success if there ever was one. The 34th annual Burnaby Terry Fox Run is at Swangard Stadium. It starts its registration at 9 a.m. and the opening ceremonies take place at 10 a.m., followed by two-, five- or 10-kilometre circuits that participants can walk, run or cycle.

Burnaby Rotary enters the Dragon

On the first day of my first-ever paid journalism gig, I got taken out for a tour of the town. This was Chilliwack in 1989, and the editor at the time – who kept calling me “Cliff” because I was too scared to correct him – thought it was good if I saw some of the sites and met some movers and shakers. The best place to do the latter? A Rotary meeting. If you don’t know what Rotary is, it’s an international service organization that brings business and professional leaders together to help make their communities a better place. My first Rotary meeting was pretty dull to a 20-yearold who wasn’t even finished journalism school. In the nearly 30 years since then, I’ve come to see the power of Rotary in how its clubs are able to raise money for worthy causes. But the meetings weren’t really my thing. Most of the ones I’ve attended were in Maple Ridge, and they were smallish affairs. Until I entered the Dragon. Last Friday, a new Rotary club in Burnaby was christened with an event unlike any other Rotary function I’ve ever attended. The new Rotary Club of Dragon was welcomed officially at an amazing event at the Hilton in Burnaby, with more than 400 people (400!) packing the ballroom. The Dragon club is the first Rotary club in Metro Vancouver made up of local businesspeople who originated from China – with a main goal in mind.

“With the vision of promoting Rotary’s public spirit, our club encourages Chinese immigrants to participate in community services and integrate into Canadian multicultural societies.” They also raise money. A lot of it. The Dragons – despite not being an official club yet – raised more than $90,000 earlier this year for Burnaby Hospital. That’s just in the first half of the year. Imagine how much money they will raise when they have a full year to work with. The Dragons sure know how to throw a party. I’ve never even seen half that many people at any Rotary event I’ve attended.There were dancing dragons, live music and other performers.The energy in the room was electric.You could really feel the excitement at having their own Rotary club to do some good. “We’re all about helping others,” said Chris Dong, a local writer and trustee on the Burnaby Public Library board. Dong sat down with me for a few minutes to discuss the club and have a few quick bites before hitting the floor again to network. He said the Dragons led a campaign to collect winter shoes last year that were distributed to people in need. Dong also suggested people should sign up and take part in the Burnaby Lake Run, Sept. 23.The NOW is a media sponsor.Visit www. burnabylakerun.com. Follow editor Chris Campbell @shinebox44.

Lee Rankin in October after learning the Greater Vancouver Regional District was considering relaxing its rules to ease traffic on heavily congested Highway 1. Rankin argued Burnaby city council should not support HOV lanes on the highway unless the GRVD stuck to its occupancy rules. Most of his fellow councillors agreed with him. Only Mayor Doug Drummond and Coun. Celeste Redman voted against the three-person minimum for the new HOV lanes.

ZONING BYLAW AMENDMENTS

City orders man to ﬁll up basement suite with sand

Kelvin Gawley

kgawley@burnabynow.com

Gurjit Jawandha built a basement suite in his home so the grandmother of his children would have a place to live while helping care for his kids.The City of Burnaby told him to demolish the suite and fill it with sand. “This is just wrong,” Gurjit Jawandha told city council at a recent meeting. The city has given him six months to fill in the space and seal it with a concrete slab. In a city and region severely lacking in rental stock, Jawandha said he doesn’t understand the demand. Jawandha converted a portion of his crawl space into a suite.The new living area exceeded the ratio of habitable space to lot size allowed in his Metrotown neighbourhood, the city’s deputy director of planning and building told the NOW. Ed Kozak said Jawandha was aware of this rule when he built his home five years ago.

Jawandha told councillors he knew he about the bylaw when he built the home, but he had been told it was likely to have changed by now. “I thought by now it would have been approved because it’s been an ongoing issue for a long time,” he said. “Now I’m supposed to refill this livable space, which is for grandma, and now we have nowhere to place her.” Kozak said “he took a chance and it didn’t work out for him.” Mayor Derek Corrigan struck a similar tone while responding to Jawandha in council chambers. “So, you knew exactly

what you were doing when you constructed your building,” he said. “You knew exactly what you were entitled to do, and you’ve chosen to do something different.” Jawahdha acknowledged that was true but said he still felt it was unfair. Council later voted to file a notice in the Land Title Office against Jawandha’s home to warn any potential buyers of the order to refill the crawl space.The order came after the city was informed that Jawandha’s home was up for sale. Jawandha said the home was no longer for sale. Online listings show it has been taken off the market.

Burnaby racers enjoy adventure of a lifetime Maria Rantanen

editorial@burnabynow.com

Martina Seo said she might be great at baking and sewing – but those weren’t the best skills to have when she and her brother, Phil – a Burnaby resident – entered the physically gruelling Amazing Race Canada: Heroes Edition. Despite competing against firefighters, police officers, military personnel and professional athletes, the volunteer dynamic duo managed to hang on until the final four. They were eliminated last week in Fredericton, N.B. It’s an experience Martina and Phil will never regret. “It was the best time of my life, but it was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done – physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually,” Martina said. “It was a great time to spend with my brother, and I’m so glad I did it with my brother.We had very complementary skills.” Maybe it was Martina’s lack of videogame experience that finally dragged her down.When she tried her hand in Fredericton at landing a $30-million helicopter, luckily just a simulat-

ed one, she crashed almost 40 times. Her final downfall was in that Atlantic Canadian city when she was asked to match First Nations art with their names – all the names started looking the same, and the pair was finally eliminated. For the brother-sister duo, it was brains over brawn. Competing against other teams who had physically demanding jobs put the high school home economics teacher and Vancity office worker at a disadvantage, so they had to work strategically. Martina’s favourite task was climbing an 80-foot pole in Squamish in the first episode. She watched her athletic competitors go ahead of her, completing the task in just a few minutes. And then it was her turn. In Mexico City, the Seos again applied their brain power to their tasks. As the other teams scrambled to hail taxis to take them from challenge to challenge, Phil and Martina enlisted “Papa Eduardo,”a taxi driver, to stick with them the whole day. The Indonesian leg of the journey was an emotional roller coaster as the siblings

were last all day – until they were asked to do an Indonesian hand dance. Luckily, Phil likes to dance, and he breakdances, so he was able to learn the dance sequence and do it the fastest – and they weren’t eliminated after all. The entire race was the “most intense thing I’ve done,” Phil said, echoing his sister that it required emotional, physical, mental and spiritual resources. “You need all that combined, and you need to focus the right way to keep surviving,” Phil said. When they set out on their Amazing Race journey, Martina thought they’d only make it possibly to the third leg, but, after climbing that 80-foot pole and coming in second last, they started moving up in each episode. “There were some fierce competitors in the season,” Martina said, including military personnel. “I don’t exercise for a living.” Phil’s expectations, though, remained high. When they were finally eliminated, he broke down and cried. “I really believed we’d make it to the finale,” he said. The Amazing Race Canada: Heroes Edition started in B.C. in Squamish, then continued to Dawson City, Yukon; Indonesia; P.E.I.; Mexico; Stratford, Ont.; Winnipeg, Man.; and then Fredericton where the Seos finally met their match. “Even though we might not have been one of the fastest teams, we were one of the smartest teams,” Martina said. “I think we have a lot of heart.” After the episode showing their elimination, they checked the Amazing Race Facebook page and found

END OF THE LINE: The sister-and-brother duo of Martina and Phil Seo hug after being eliminated from The Amazing Race Canada: Heroes Edition. They won the support of fans by racing with their combination of smarts and heart against physically tougher teams. PHOTO COURTESY BELL MEDIA thousands of messages from people supporting them. “It was so overwhelming, I want to message everyone back and say thank you for your support, but I can’t keep up. It was so nice they wrote to me, I want to write back,” Martina said. As the season unfolded, Martina and Phil organized viewing parties and get-togethers. One party was held at Queens Cross Pub, and it doubled as a fundraiser for Harvest Project Food Bank, raising $930 for the North Shore non-profit. “I think our biggest message is this, whatever you do, do it well … share kindness and love and compassion with everyone,” Martina said.

“What we wanted to show Canada was, if you do good, you can go far in the race, and if you do good in life, you can go far in life,” Phil said. “We feel like we

won an experience of a lifetime. I know we didn’t win the race, but, other than that, we won such an amazing experience and 10 legs of memory.”

Korean Community Day on Saturday You can meet your Korean neighbours on Sept. 15 at Korean Community Day. Businesses will set up tables at both the Korean Town Centre and the North Road Plaza (9930 Lougheed Hwy.). Businesses from the North Road Business Improvement Association will have tables set up outside,

showing off their wares and services.There will be special offers and promotional items on offer. North Road claims to be the largest Korean shopping district in the Lower Mainland, with award-winning restaurants, professional services, grocers and more. The Sept. 15 event runs from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.

For most, Mondays are an expectedly lousy day of the week. Heart attack rates peak, it’s the furthest day from the anticipated start of the weekend and stress levels are at an all-time high as we prepare for a busy week. For us parents, this dreaded day also means a return to the busy back-to-school grind. Children are crabby as they crawl out of bed and rush out the door, and parents lose their patience as they pack lunches and hurry to school drop-off. Mondays have forever had a bad rap, so it’s not surprising that some schools have opted out of the first day of the week altogether. In Colorado, a school district has recently decided to cancel school on Mon-

Enjoy live music at Deer Lake Gallery Live music lovers, don’t forget that Deer Lake Gallery is the place to be in October. Coming up on Friday, Oct. 5, it’s the first Cinq À Sept of the season. French for “Five to Seven,” a Cinq À Sept event is an afterwork gathering that features mingling, food and drink. The gallery is bringing in Juno-nominated guitaristcomposer Bill Coon to provide entertainment, while guests mingle and check out Watermarks, a group exhibition featuring the work of Michael Abelman, Amelia Alcock-White and Graham Coulthard. Then, on Friday, Oct. 12, the gallery is hosting Live at the Gallery, the next perfor-

mance in an ongoing series of live music events. An event write-up notes that Live at the Gallery “provides an opportunity to subvert the often rigid structure of an art gallery by having an interactive presentation being held within it.” Doors open at 6:30 p.m., and music starts at 7 p.m. – featuring Alanna Ho and Nicholas Marriot. Both events are free, but as space is limited, anyone who wants to attend is asked to register at www. eventbrite.com. Deer Lake Gallery is at 6584 Deer Lake Ave. For more information, see www. burnabyartscouncil.org or call 604-298-7322.

days, in favour of a fourday school week. Citing cost cuts as the main reason, the district anticipates a savings of nearly $1 million in the first year of the new school schedule, and officials believe the new shortened week will help to retain teachers who have complained of low wages and minimal school funding. And it’s not just Colorado that is taking on this new timetable.The four-day school week has actually become the norm in several rural communities across Canada as well. In Saskatchewan, all but four of the 39 schools in the Prairie South School Division have adopted this alternate calendar, with a goal of reducing lengthy bus rides for children, which is noted as a main concern associated with the full school week. During the 2001/02 school year, the Boundary

School District in B.C. decided to give the four-day school week a try, in an effort to avoid several potential school closures in the area. Salt Spring Island currently has schools that are in session from Mondays to Thursdays, with slightly longer school days. In Fort McMurray and the B.C. Coastal Mountains region, the shorter week was considered as well, but the idea was eventually rejected. With the news of more school districts taking on the four-day school week, many parents here in B.C. have pondered the idea as well – several suggesting on social media that we consider the same schedule here in the Lower Mainland. While I’m sure I’m not the only one who would love to nix Mondays en masse, I don’t think a Monday-less school week would work – especially for work-

ing parents. With child-care costs at an all-time high, and the number of spots available scarce, parents would be left scrambling to cover care – and would take a significant financial hit as a result. Child care would need to become a lot more accessible and affordable before we could consider such a drastic change. With nearly 15 weeks off, including holidays and professional development days, I don’t think our kids are in need of additional time off, especially if parents are unable to enjoy that extra time as a family. Perhaps we should convince employers to consider a similar fourday structure and then encourage schools to follow suit. Bianca Bujan is a mom of three, writer, editor and marketing consultant.

The snacks are organized and delivered by both onshift and off-duty firefighters volunteering their time in a bid to give back to the

community, according to Alleyn. “A lot of the time, the community just sees us going lights-and-sirens to calls,” he said, “and we don’t necessarily get that connection.This allows our firefighters to have a better connection with the community, the students and

the staff in the schools and the youth centres.” Recently, the firefighters have also started to donate food for families to use over the longer school breaks, according to Alleyn. For more about the Burnaby Firefighters Charitable Society, visit www. burnabyfirefighters.com.

Burnaby’s top cop was tossed in the slammer last Friday afternoon for pushing chocolate at the local RCMP detachment. Chief Supt. Deanne Burleigh was “arrested” at the detachment and hauled to Lougheed Town Centre, where she cooled her heels in a holding cell and waited for colleagues and members of the public to “bail” her out. It was all part of Burnaby RCMP’s annual Cops for Cancer Jail and Bail event in support of the Cops for Cancer Tour de Coast fundraiser, which funds pedi-

A school snack program that started with local firefighters donating healthy snacks to one Burnaby elementary school and two community centres in 2005 now sees the delivery of tens of thousands of snacks to 30 schools and four community centres four times a year. The Burnaby Firefighters Charitable Society was at it again this month, loading up firetrucks with boxes of granola bars, juice boxes, instant oatmeal, microwavable pasta and more for delivery to schools around the district, so educators have something on hand to give hungry students. “I hate to say it, but there are kids out there that don’t bring lunch to school,” Burnaby Firefighters Local 323 vice president Scott Alleyn told the NOW, “and, by providing this program, it allows them to focus more on their learning than being hungry at school.” In all, Alleyn estimates 50,000 individual snacks

The season-ending Live at the ’Bolt event, Persistence, will be curated by Philley and MaikoYamamoto and run in Deer Lake Park from June 20 to 22. It will feature a multi-disciplinary evening of women artists in response to the now-infamous words of Senator Mitch McConnell – remember “Nevertheless, she persisted”? – describing his colleague Senator Elizabeth Warren’s refusal to yield the Senate floor when told to sit down and be quiet.

“The artists will ‘voice’ their response to his directive, creating an evening that will be anything but quiet,” says a write-up about the event. “We’re not sure what’s going to happen, but you can be sure it will be fun, informative, cheeky and defiant.We will persist!” For all the Shadbolt Centre details, see www.shad boltcentre.com.Tickets for all shows can be purchased at tickets.shadboltcentre. com or by calling the box office at 604-205-3000.

Something, I think, we can agree the world is very much in need of at the moment.” Philley noted the whole Shadbolt season will celebrate female artists. “These are the kind of artists who will challenge

Love rocks left behind for Burnaby hikers Mario Bartel

editorial@burnabynow.com

Leah Pells and Natashia Pellatt are spreading love, one rock at a time. The youth counsellors at Suwa’lkh alternate school painted rocks with brightly coloured designs and left about 100 of them behind last weekend on Burnaby’s Velodrome trail on Burnaby Mountain. Local residents were encouraged to hit the trail to find one of them. The goal is to bring a smile to the people who find them and maybe help create a community of positivity and support. Pells, a former Canadian Olympian middle-distance runner, has been painting rocks she finds while running or hiking for years, offering them to clients in her private counselling practice as a bit of a talisman to remind them of the conversations they’ve had, the strategies they’ve formulated together to cope with challenges. When Pellatt, Pells’ col-

league at Suwa’lkh, picked up on the idea, they decided to take the rocks they’ve painted out of the office and into nature where a chance encounter with a colourful rock might be all it takes to brighten someone’s mood. “Nature is very healing,” Pells said. “When you’re out there exercising, it brings all those good feelings together.” The pair have spent dozens of hours collecting the rocks while on hikes, then transforming them with brush and paints into small works of art.They recently started adding their social media links ,@LP_writes and @npellatt, along with the hashtag #spreadlove to the back of the rocks to help spread their intentions even further. It seems to be working. Pells and Pellatt have seen reposts on social media from people who found some of the 50 rocks left along the Sunshine Coast Trail near Ruby Lake, and they got an email from someone in Scotland who’s seen posts about their paint-

ed rocks project and is now embarking upon a similar effort there. “We’re hoping to make it a contagious movement,” Pellatt said. Pells said people are especially receptive to their

message of love and hope because of all the rancour and division currently in the world. “When people feel defeated in regards to what’s going on in the world, you can make a difference in a grass-

roots place,” Pells said. “It’s a way you can have control.” That extends to the two rock artists as well. As much as they delight in their artistic creations, Pells said, their real payoff comes when they

think of the wonder and whimsy people likely feel when they stumble upon them unexpectedly. “You wonder, who took it, did it put a smile on their face,” Pells said. – Tri-City News

Meet your neighbours New series with Burnaby Neighbourhood House will introduce readers to members of our community This article marks the beginning of a regular monthly series between the Burnaby NOW and Burnaby Neighbourhood House. The work of the BNH is spread throughout Burnaby with two neighbourhood houses, nine licensed schoolage daycares, three preschools, a community hall and targeted afterschool programs at four elementary schools. The stories in this series will highlight the neighbours who live in Burnaby and their personal histories that will show the diversity of our city and the importance of creating a sense of belonging and helping each other. This week: Meet Flora Wong. FLORA WONG “The first thought that came to my mind was:This is the end. I was nine, and my mother had just died. “We were left with just my father to care for all four of us. I had no idea how our world would look without the most important person under the sun gone. I felt weak, devastated, and I almost stopped seeing friends. Do you know the feeling? The one where no one really gets what are you going through? “Ten years later my father died – I was 19, my younger

brother was just graduating and my little sister was 15. I had to become an adult overnight. “Before my parents died, I was a typical teenager. I lived with my siblings in our safe, narrow world and thought we didn’t need anyone else. “When they passed away, the people around us didn’t help, and we did not have any place to go. It was difficult to find an apartment with no money and no job, so I had to give up my dreams and work. “I felt like a piece of stone was weighing me down, but I knew we just had to persevere somehow. It was at that very moment I realized the value of family and friends.

“People today think it is too difficult to maintain real relationships, and they easily lose the connections if something goes wrong. “However, believe me, if you had to go through what I did, you would appreciate the gift of a family, friends and good neighbours as much as I do.” Flora was born in Vancouver but has lived in Burnaby for 47 years and takes pride in being a contributing neighbour and maintaining close friendships. In her retirement, she wanted to give back to her community so she became a volunteer at the Burnaby Neighbourhood North House helping seniors connect through the weekly Seniors’ Soup and Bun Lunch. As a former Royal Bank employee, she is able to utilize her volunteer hours to apply for funds from RBC to put towards programs at the Burnaby Neighbourhood North House. The Burnaby Neighbourhood House is a charitable, non-profit organization with a unique focus on neighbours supporting neighbours. Check them out at www.burnabynh. ca.

Squash is on at Bonsor

The rec complex aims to attract more women to the sport Dan Olson

dolson@burnabynow.com

Behind a glass wall, the intensity and speed of squash is contagious. It’s getting people to take that step and to realize that Burnaby’s Bonsor Recreation Complex has a fine array of courts that is often the biggest hurdle. That’s why Bonsor is taking a bite out of the boundaries that block people from the sport by offering a free session Sept. 18 as part of Women’s Squash Week. Kelli Tibbles, program coordinator at Bonsor, said the event will provide a variety of opportunities for those looking to learn more or improve their skills. “We have two coaches who will be doing introductory sessions for squash for women who attend, from how to hold the racquet, rally points and tips and tricks,” said Tibbles. Bonsor, which has three women’s teams in the Vancouver Squash League, is one of the few facilities east of Vancouver with squash courts.The recreation complex boasts three courts. The benefits of the game are many, so Squash BC business development coordinator Joanne Veltri feels events like Bonsor is hosting, as part of Women’s Squash Week (Sept. 16 to 23), can only help spread the word. “This particular campaign really is absolutely vital for an amateur sport (organization) like Squash BC.We really work hard to encourage the clubs to create their own programs, and I support the efforts that places like Bonsor are making,” said Veltri. The Burnaby rec centre offers lessons for youth ages eight to 12, adults and women, noted Tibbles. She feels the sport provides a great balance for women who are looking for camaraderie and exercise. Veltri concurs. “I’ve never seen people sweat so much, burn more calories,” said Veltri. “For Women’s Squash Week, we sort of spin the angle that this is one of the most time-efficient sports. If you want to lose weight, want to be more fit and don’t have a lot of time, you can put two games a week and it’s going to give you more fitness value than if you went to the gym three to five times.” The Bonsor program runs Sept. 18, 6 to 8 p.m. For more information, contact Tibbles at kelli.tibbles@burnaby.ca.

Steelers rebound after terriﬁc effort

Grandview shows signs of defensive improvement in pair of 3-2 results Dan Olson

dolson@burnabynow.com

Firing 60 shots on net and coming away on the wrong side of the score, the Grandview Steelers tried things a different way on Sunday and exited with the win. The Pacific Junior B Hockey League team downed the expansion White Rock Whalers 3-2 at the Burnaby Winter Club, locking up their second win of the early season. Kyle Forbes scored 10 minutes into the third period to give the Steelers a brief 3-1 lead before the Whalers’ Logan Webber restored it to a single tally. Grandview, which fired just 25 shots on the White Rock net, protected the lead the rest of the way, with Cale Dolan collecting the win. Although the team’s effort

dimmed a bit on Sunday, getting a win and showing some refinement despite the back-to-back test was a positive sign in head coach Stevan Matic’s eyes. “It was our home opener, and I felt we maybe took a stepback from the night before, but it was also our first back-to-back (games),” said Matic. “We did enough to win.” Earlier markers from Emerson Kostner and Michael Martino gave Grandview a 2-0 advantage before the game was seven minutes old. Kostner’s goal, at 3:32 of the first, came on the powerplay, on a set-up from Forbes. Just 24 hours earlier, Port Moody’s Noah Masog weathered a torrent of Steeler shots to backstop the Port Moody Panthers to a 3-2 win over Grandview. The Scappoose, Ore. native

made 58 saves, including 14 in a scoreless third period, to stymie the visitors. Down 1-0, Grandview tied it six minutes into the middle frame when Jameson Crawford scored his first of the season. Just over a minute later, however, the Panthers regained the lead on a tally from Allan Gekhman. A minute later, Mateo Toledo made it 3-1 for the home team. Connor Alderson got the Steelers back within a goal when he notched his second of the season midway through the frame, on an extra-man opportunity. But Grandview were unable to solve Masog over the final 20 minutes, leaving them with their first loss of the season. “Frankly, I thought we played our best game so far this season (against Port Moody),” noted Ma-

tic. “I’m fairly confident that if we can generate 60 shots on goal in a game, we’ll win our fair share.” Another encouraging aspect was on defence, where the squad limited the opposition’s chances and gave returning netminders Dolan and Mateo Petrelli a lot of support. Still, Matic said there remain a lot of unanswered questions as far as who fits where and how quickly they can settle into the junior B routine. “We’re still trying to figure out what we have and where they fit,” he said. “I think if we continue to be defensive-minded yet have that ability to put our foot on the gas, we should be competitive.” They next play Friday in Abbotsford, and host Surrey on Sunday, 7:15 p.m. at the Burnaby Winter Club.

Burnaby Lake surges in comeback win over Bayside

While they surrendered the first score, the Burnaby Lake Rugby Club’s premier women would emerge with a 17-12 win over visiting Bayside. Led by the two-try performance of flyhalf Jessica Harvey, the squad persevered against a feisty South Surrey crew in a tight contest. Harvey’s first drive came off a scrum possession, where she took the ball and evaded a

couple of tacklers before planting it down in the end zone to make it 7-5. Undeterred, Bayside’s Miriama Naiobasali scored her second of the game, this time a 75-metre run, to make it 12-5. But the Burnaby trio of Faith Fitzpatrick, Sally Hillier and Harvey combined to shut down Naiobasali the rest of the way, while spearheading the comeback. Harvey’s second

try, followed by a convert, deadlocked it at 1212 before the half. Midway through the second half, winger Laura Londono dove in for the game-winning score. Providing some gritty tackling throughout were Tiana Coutts and Katie Grudzinski, while Tara Brandl,Victoria Bui, Madison MacLeod, Liz Wright, Fitzpatrick and Londono all excelled in their senior debut.

Gallacher helps B.C. take senior golf title

Burnaby’s John Gallacher delivered two solid rounds for B.C. and help the provincial squad capture a national title on the second day of competition at the 2018 Canadian men’s senior golf championships in Bathurst, N.B. The trio of Vancouver’s Doug Roxburgh, Nanaimo’s Al Jensen and Gallacher posted a combined score of 9-over 297 over two rounds to capture the Phil Farley Trophy. B.C. was in a close duel with defending champ Alberta over the final day, before the west coasters pulled out a onestroke lead, thanks to a second-round score of 2-over 146. Gallacher, who finished the four-round Canadian senior event in a seven-way tie for 43rd, posted rounds of 79 and 76 over the first two days, which stood as the team portion of the championship. He registered his best score on Day 3, with a 1-over 73. ZHANG COLLECTS B.C. BANTAM BOYS GOLF CROWN Burnaby Mountain Golf Club’s Billy Zhang captured the B.C. bantam boys golf title, beating West Van’s Manu Gandhi by eight strokes. Zhang finished the two-round event with a 3-over 141 (70, 71). Burnaby’s Jay Xu ended up in a tie for ninth overall after firing 154 (77, 77). In bantam girls, Burnaby’s Luna Lu made it close before placing second, three strokes back of Langley’s Chaewan Baek with a total of 152 (79, 73).

KICKING UP THE DIRT: The PoCo Colts’ second baseman, left, isn’t able to tag out B.C. Badgers’ Jaki Braidwood during Lower Mainland Over-45 baseball league action recently. The Badgers, B.C.’s only all-female adult team, played a full schedule in the men’s over-45 league, finishing with a 3-12-1 record. PHOTO CHUNG CHOW
