Cops ﬁnd 30 stolen garage door openers Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

Are you missing a garage door opener? Burnaby RCMP might have it. A 51-year-old Burnaby man is facing numerous charges after police searched his home and found hundreds of stolen items – including 30 garage door openers. Police suspect the stolen goods are related to a series of break-ins at garages across North Burnaby in April. Investigators identified a suspect in that case, executed a search warrant at his home on June 22 and found stolen sports equipment, bikes, tools and 37 GPS units. “The main means of access to these properties was via a garagedoor remote control that had been stolen from a vehicle at the residence in the days and weeks preceding the break-and-enter robbery,” stated an RCMP press release. Michael Thomas Gorval was charged last month with break and enter, mischief, theft and possession of stolen property. Along with pressing charges, police have seized Gorval’s truck since he allegedly used it to commit his crimes.The vehicle will be handed over to the province’s civil forfeiture office for disposal if Gorval is convicted. The incident has prompted police to remind residents to treat garage-door remotes just as they would a house key. Other tips for keeping garages safe include: !Never leave your garage-door remote control in an unoccupied vehicle. !Change the factory default settings on your remote to a unique code. If your residence can be accessed via your garage, ensure doors are secure when you’re not at home. !Block out your address on your vehicle registration papers so thieves can’t find your residence if your remote is stolen.

SLOW DOWN: Pavement Patty is a 3D optical illusion on Delta Avenue in Burnaby.

Pavement Patty a warning to drivers

Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

A 3D illusion of a girl chasing a ball onto the street in front of two Burnaby elementary schools gave speeding motorists something to think about Tuesday morning. “Pavement Patty,” an image of a girl printed on weatherproof, skid-proof vinyl, was installed directly onto Delta Avenue between Brentwood Park and Holy Cross elementary schools Monday night along with signs reading “In a rush at a school zone? Seriously?” The image is designed to morph into a 3D optical illusion when drivers are a few feet away. The Community Against Preventable Injuries, BCAA and the Burnaby school district partnered on the installation to draw attention to persistent poor driving be-

haviours in school zones across the province. It’s an issue Brentwood principal Jillian Lewis is all too familiar with, especially since construction on Lougheed Highway seems to have driven more traffic onto the street in front of her school. “I think people sometimes get frantic when they’re running late and are trying to get their kids to school or they’re trying to get themselves to work, and so people tend to not behave to the best of their ability,” she said. It’s not the first time Pavement Patty has been seen running across the street for her ball. The 80-foot decal, designed with help from Wasserman + Partners Advertising, was first placed in front of an elementary school in West Vancouver in 2010, but organizers don’t want drivers to get

too used to her, so she hasn’t been seen again until now. “If we did it all the time, it would be old news, and the point of it is to really get people talking about the issue of school zone safety,” said Jennifer Smith, senior program manager with Preventable. Careless and potentially deadly behaviour in school zones continues to be a problem according to a survey of B.C. principals, teachers and parents conducted last week for BCAA by Insights West. Eighty per cent of those surveyed said they had witnessed speeding, 73 per cent had witnessed motorists not stopping for crosswalks, 78 per cent had seen parents encouraging their kids to do unsafe things and a staggering 56 per cent witnessed at least one near miss – a child almost hit by

a car – during this year’s back-toschool week. “We have brought back Pavement Patty to remind drivers that even at low speeds, children can be seriously injured or killed,” said Preventable co-executive director Dr. Ian Pike. “Slow down, leave the phone alone and give the road your full attention.” Preventable and BCAA chose the school zone on Delta Avenue because it is a busy street between two elementary schools and offers clear sight lines so motorists aren’t startled. “As you drive up, you can see that there’s something on the pavement, so it’s not like a sudden effect,” Smith said. “It emerges very slowly, and once you approach the optimal viewing distance, you can see the 3D illusion, but it doesn’t pop out suddenly.”

New street parking limits irk residents Kelvin Gawley

kgawley@burnabynow.com

New parking rules that one Burnaby man feared would slash his property value by hundreds of thousands of dollars are on hold, as the city tries to address an influx of cars choking a narrow residential street. Residents of Brentlawn Drive, a block north of Brentwood Town Centre, were recently issued a notice from the City of Burnaby informing them they would soon be limited to three hours of on-street parking during the day. The time limit, planned to come into force in the new year, was designed to deter construction workers from the nearby mall from parking on the street. Eric Anderson, who has lived on Brentlawn since he was a child, said there had never been serious issues with parking and traffic on the street until major construction started on Brentwood Town Centre about a year ago. Since then, he said workers lining both sides of the road with their cars have made it difficult for vehicles to pass one another going opposite directions. He said Brentlawn also serves as a bus route, and transit operators find it almost impossible to cross paths. “We quite often have duelling buses,” Anderson said. But, he said, the three-hour rule

would simply push construction workers to nearby streets while negatively impacting residents like himself.The inconvenience of having to move one’s car would make the homes along Brentlawn much less attractive to potential buyers

and drive down their property values, Anderson predicted. “This will cost home owners several hundred thousand dollars,” he said. While most homes along Brentlawn, including Anderson’s, have

parking in a back alley, he said many don’t have enough spaces for their cars. It would cost some a lot of money to dismantle concrete walls and install more parking space, he said.

He also said both he and his wife’s car have been burglarized when parked behind his home. Anderson sees two potential fixes to the problem: the city designate Brentlawn as residentsonly parking or it ask TransLink to move the bus route to nearby Highlawn, which is wider and better able to accommodate both onstreet parking and east/west traffic. The existing plan, he said, leaves residents on both streets unhappy. “Highlawn residents will be angered by the worker parking and Brentlawn owners will be angered by the loss of property value,” he said. “Angry people don’t vote for the incumbent.” But Coun. Pietro Calendino said the three-hour limit is not written in stone. He said the letter sent to Brentlawn residents was meant to start a conversation and elicit feedback. Calendino said when he heard about the proposal earlier this week, he told staff “you’re not going to do that, because the residents don’t want it.” “So nothing is going to happen for now,” he said. Calendino said a process to determine a better solution to the parking issue is underway. He said city staff will ask the Brentwood developer whether it can open up underground parking for its workers, to keep them off the streets in the area.

Trans Mountain stages exercise Trans Mountain conducted a large emergency spill response drill Wednesday at the Westridge Marine Terminal in Burnaby and Burrard Inlet. The company said in a news release that it was “one of the largest” such events in its history, involving more than 300 participants/observers and 20 response agencies. The exercise tested response personnel and practised the implementation of the Westridge Marine Terminal Emergency Response Plan, as required by the National Energy Board and Transport Canada. The exercise consisted of water-based response activities at various geographic response sites within Burrard Inlet, as

well as “simultaneous shoreline deployment activities” at the Westridge Marine Terminal. “Trans Mountain has loaded marine vessels with oil at the Westridge Marine Terminal since 1956 without a single spill from tanker operations,” the company said. It currently serves approximately five tankers per month. If the Trans Mountain pipeline and Westridge expansions eventually go ahead, the terminal is expected to serve up to “37 vessels per month – up to 34 Aframax class tankers and three barges,” the company said. “This increased total would represent about 14 per cent of today’s marine traffic in Port of Vancouver.”

Hurley endorsed by teachers’ union Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

The issue of housing affordability has tipped the scales in favour of independent mayoral candidate Mike Hurley over Mayor Derek Corrigan for the Burnaby Teachers’ Association. The local union voted at a meeting Tuesday to endorse Hurley for the Oct. 20 municipal election. “Classroom teachers have been witness to the negative impact of affordability of housing, displacement and lack of rental units,” said BTA president Leanne Sjodin, adding members at the union’s representative assembly Tuesday expressed concern over what they consider a lack of action on housing during Corrigan’s tenure as mayor. In a press release Friday, the local union noted Burnaby is currently ranked 70 out of 72 municipalities by the BC Non-Profit Housing Association for housing supply and affordability. “Since 2010, Burnaby

Cop and bus collide

Five people were taken to hospital Friday morning after a police vehicle and a transit bus collided at a busy Burnaby intersection. The crash happened at about 6:30 a.m. near the intersection of Canada Way and Willingdon Avenue and involved a Burnaby RCMP SUV and a transit bus with about 15 passengers on board, according to Burnaby RCMP. The Brentwood/UBC bus was travelling south on Willingdon Avenue when “the RCMP vehicle contacted the rear of the bus,” according to TransLink. Five people, including the officer who had been driving the police vehicle, were taken to hospital with what appeared to be minor injuries, but all have since been released, according to police. The intersection was closed for a brief period but was soon reopened. Burnaby RCMP is investigating the circumstances surrounding the collision and asks anyone who witnessed it to contact Burnaby RCMP at 604-646-9999.

Pedestrian seriously injured ENDORSED: Burnaby mayoral candidate Mike Hurley. PHOTO NOW FILES has seen a decrease of 712 rental units whereas other metro municipalities have seen increases,” stated the release. While the union announced its pick for mayor Wednesday, it did not announce endorsements for any other candidates running for city council.

For school board, the BTA voted to endorse the entire slate running under Corrigan’s Burnaby Citizens Association banner. Two incumbents are running on the BCA ticket (current chair Gary Wong and five-term trustee Larry Hayes) and newcomers Suresh Bhayana, Ryan

Stewart, Bill Brassington, Jen Mezei and Peter Cech. “The BTA endorsement of all the BCA school trustees was informed by the leadership of BCA candidates around their commitment to supporting teachers and public education,” stated the press release.

A 50-year-old pedestrian sustained a serious head injury but is expected to live after being hit in Burnaby Wednesday afternoon. Emergency crews were called to the 5600 block of Goring Street, in the Brentwood area, at about 4:45 p.m., according to a Burnaby RCMP press release. The pedestrian had attempted to cross the street during a time of high traffic volume when he was hit by a Nissan Altima, police said. RCMP said the driver remained at the scene and is cooperating with police. The Burnaby RCMP traffic section is now looking for witnesses or anyone who might have dash-camera footage of the incident. Contact Burnaby RCMP at 604-646-9999 and ask for Const. Kevin Connolly.

Nothing is important enough to risk a child’s life

We couldn’t find just one topic to comment on because there’s so much going on out there in our community – so we’re giving thumbs up and thumbs down on a variety of topics. Thumbs up – to Pavement Patty, who sacrificed herself by getting run over numerous times to raise awareness about driving slowly in school zones.The Community Against Preventable Injuries, BCAA and the Burnaby school district partnered on the 3D optical illusion to draw attention to persistent poor

driving behaviours in school zones across the province. It’s the kind of fresh idea we need more of to protect our children. Thumbs down – to the dumb drivers who necessitate the need to create Pavement Patty.These reckless drivers continue to be a problem, according to a survey of B.C. principals, teachers and parents conducted last week for BCAA by InsightsWest. Eighty per cent of those surveyed said they had witnessed speeding, 73 per cent had witnessed motorists not stop-

You aren’t helping make our community a better place. In fact, you are discouraging really good people from getting involved in politics because of the damage you inflict. Just stop.

Thumbs down – to LandlordBC, which decided to send out a news release saying how much they are (newsflash!) against reducing the 4.5-per-cent maximum allowable rent increase. If anything, the landlords group claimed the 4.5 per cent isn’t even enough, calling it “inadequate.”The group then went on to claim that landlords are actually advocates for renters, which was received with about as much incredulity as one would expect.The tiny violins are playing for all of the landlords right now.

SOGI helps make children feel safe Re: Anti-SOGI candidate to run for school board, NOW, Sept. 14 High school is always an awkward place. It’s a time when teenagers learn more about themselves and discover who they are. For those of us in Grade 12, it is a time of new challenges. We are on the cusp of a new place in our world – not children, but not adults.We will, however, be voting in the next election. Discovering your gender and sexual identity in high school is always a difficult and awkward experience. I often hear that the world I live in is a more accepting world than the one experienced by previous generations.Yet I still hear kids in the hallway calling something they see as bad “gay” or calling other students “faggots.” The trope of the skinny bookish kid being bullied because they are a nerd is severely outdated.Teens today are seldom bullied because of their intelligence. Instead, they are bullied because of their cultural heritage or gender identity and sexual orientation. The SOGI 123 (provincial education resources are) for teenagers who are starting to realize they may not fit the societal norm of being cisgender and/or heterosexual. In my experience, teens are often at odds with their parents. It should come as no surprise that teens are reluctant to share their sexual identity with their parents. Many students live in a dual world where they outwardly conform to social “norms”

that are based upon adult ideas of heterosexual gender identities. They fear the many forms a negative response can take. SOGI is an environment where they can feel safe and accepted. It is a place where teens engage with other students and can be free of judgment. I believe the new curriculum, SOGI 123, will help break down barriers and encourage discussion and understanding. In July 2016, the Human Rights Code Amendment Act was passed to include “gender identity or expression” among the protected grounds covered by the B.C. Human Rights Code. For Laura-Lynn Tyler Thompson – who has never known and will never know what it is like to be marginalized because of her sexuality – to say (in an interview with the NOW) that SOGI should not have a place in our school system shows a lack of empathy to LGBTQ+ teens everywhere. She openly defines any identity that is not heterosexual as a problem that requires the help of medical professionals, such as pediatricians and psychiatrists. Tyler Thompson is entitled to her opinion. But opinions that seek to marginalize students based on their gender identity and sexual orientation have no place in school policy. And the people that support them have no place on a board of school trustees. Anna Schillaci-Ventura is a Grade 12 student at Burnaby Central Secondary School.

What’s in a name, Burnaby?

In one of his last duties as mayor, Bill Lewarne presented 89-year-old Burnaby pioneer May Comish with an autographed copy of the second printing of PioneerTales, a book that recounts the city’s history from 1888 to 1930. Comish had submitted an account of her experiences in the city in 1923 and 1924, when she was the wife of school teacher Alden Curtis. Because her entry was handwritten, however, her surname was misinterpreted as Cornish in the first printing of the book. Her name had been corrected in the second printing.

Trans students need more than being loved ‘to pieces’ Editor: Re: Anti-SOGI candidate to run for school board, NOW, Sept. 13 Candidate for Burnaby school board LauraLynn Tyler Thompson is quoted as saying that she was scared and cried every day when she attended a school in the Arctic where, as “the only white, blonde girl,” she “stood out like a sore thumb.” When most of the dolls on the toy store shelf look like you, when entire rows of magazine covers have faces who look like you, when people who look like you have occupied multiple positions of power and influence for centuries, it takes a convoluted cognitive sequence to see yourself as a victim of the descendants of people who were starved to death and treaty-tricked out of the land you live on. Given what Tyler Thompson has said about her experiences in the Arctic, what can the three per cent of Burnaby’s student population who identify as Aboriginal expect from her if she was elected trustee? Probably not any acknowledgement of the role of education in the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s calls to action. Students who identify as trans or queer are supposed to expect that she will “love them to pieces” even while she denies their right to be educated about what all humans have in common – a sexual orientation, a gender identity. As a teacher I’m curious about what Tyler Thompson means by us not being trained “to

help students dealing with gender identity.” Does she mean that teachers are not trained to create safe learning environments for all students? Does she mean that teachers should ignore the 2016 directive from the B.C. Ministry of Education that “all B.C. school districts and independent schools are required to include specific references to sexual orientation and gender identity (SOGI) in their anti-bullying policies”? Does she mean that teachers should ignore the fact that lesbian, gay and bisexual youth are seven times more likely than heterosexual youth to attempt suicide? How exactly does one teach “manners, reading, writing and arithmetic” to students who are feeling unsafe? How does one reduce bullying without educating students about human rights? What purpose is served by keeping students ignorant of what it means to be a human with a sexual orientation and a gender identity? Voters in the October municipal election should ponder these questions when they make their choices for school board trustees. Schools should be safe places for all students. All students. No child should feel scared at school. Not students who are the descendants of the First Peoples to occupy this land. Not students who are blonde or brown or bisexual. If you don’t believe that, you should not be running to be a school trustee. Lizanne Foster, Burnaby

Former Burnaby First Coalition candidate Janice Beecroft has decided to go her own way and seek a council seat as an independent in Burnaby’s civic election. The Burnaby school district supervisor said she struggled to separate herself from some of the party’s more controversial candidates when she ran for school board in the 2014 election. The BFC’s main goal was to provide an opposition to the long-reigning Burnaby Citizens Association, she said, but that meant uniting people with diverse ideologies. “It is very hard in the political climate that we live in, especially with social media, to join forces with very different-minded people because you are stigmatized with their beliefs, whether they’re yours or not,” she said.

52 days in the wilderness that change me Sasha Makhneva

Special to the Burnaby NOW

After spending 52 days living in the wilderness, I finally came back to my hometown of Burnaby. I was shocked by how different my lifestyle was in the city compared to how I lived in nature. One of my adventures was an eight-day, 135-kilometre solo hike on the Sunshine Coast Trail. One day on the trail, I began to experience upper back pain after walking nine hours with a 40-pound backpack. I continued to keep my spirits high by singing for the bears and hoping that there would be people at my next campsite. However, when I made it to the campsite, there was absolutely no one there, which made me a bit upset. I went swimming right away anyways. I later began cooking my dinner with frustration because the yellow jackets kept trying to sit on me. Eventually, I just gave up on walking away from the biting insects and just let them crawl on me. It was then getting late, and it was time to go to the forest to hang my food from the bears. I kept trying to throw a rock with a rope attached to it, over a branch, but instead I kept missing and failing. I started losing hope. After two hours, I finally got it. Completing my errands improved my mood right away. I came back to my tent ready to sleep. I sat there and calmly watched a snake slither past me and begin swimming in the lake. I was empowered by the thought that at the age of 21, I could officially survive alone in the forest. For the

first time in my life, I felt at peace being far away from civilization. I felt like I could do anything I want in life and I didn’t have to wait for someone to do it with me. For my next trip, I spent a month canoeing and rafting on the Fraser River, from Mount Robson to Vancouver with the Sustainable Living Leadership Program. I was very fortunate to spend time with 14 people who were passionate about sustainability. Every day we had a routine.We would wake up and go collect wild berries to put into our oatmeal.We then packed up and got onto our canoes and rafts, where we shared our life stories and sang harmonically. Occasionally, we jumped into the river to swim, seeing bighorn sheep, grizzly bears and eagles staring back at us from the shore. In the evenings, we got to eat dinner with the communities along the Fraser River.Then we skipped setting up the tents and just slept under the stars all together. I felt connected being a part of this supportive community. Entering the city, I began seeing an increasing amount of garbage, fisheries and industry along the river.The city was overwhelming.There were all these people who all had these devices called “phones.” I was tempted to say hello to the people, but I was not sure how to get their attention. I felt like a displaced animal. The cars felt too close to each other. Everything was fast and fighting for my attention. I was tempted to pick up every piece of garbage I saw. The city had a lot of single-use products that were disposed in large numbers every day. I returned to a

place where people were not finishing their food, water was being wasted, and untouched food was being thrown away. Even though I was surrounded by people, I began to feel isolated. I started checking my Facebook in the morning, just to get a sense of connection. This was all a big contrast to my backpacking trips, where I carried only the essentials, every drop of water was conserved, every bit of food was licked clean from my plate, and each plastic bag was re-washed at least 10 times.There were no cellphones and no advertising; just me, living in the moment. I awoke to smiling faces as opposed to Facebook. Fortunately, I came home with a purpose. For the riv-

er program we had to create a project to execute in our hometowns upon returning. My project will be creating a series of short films about my adventures. I hope that by sharing my stories, I will inspire others to be mindful about the resources they use, and for youth like me to be inspired

to pursue experiences in the natural world. Spending 52 days in wilderness taught me that happiness is found in the simplicity of just being alive and living in the moment. Sasha Makhneva, who is 21 years old and a resident of Burnaby, took part in the Sustainable Living Leader-

City now Burnaby marks World Rivers Day this weekend The story of Burnaby is in many ways the story of its waterways. “So much of Burnaby’s history revolved around its creeks, its streams, its lakes, its rivers (and) its inlets,” Mark Angelo says. The bodies of water now known as Burrard Inlet, Brunette River, Burnaby Lake, Deer Lake Brook and more have been integral to the livelihoods of the area’s First Nations for millennia. And, Angelo says, they’ve played a central role in Burnaby’s non-Indigenous history too. The renowned river conservationist and former head of BCIT’s Rivers Institute hopes to highlight that history at this Sunday’s World Rivers Day event at Burnaby Village Museum. But the history of Burnaby’s relationship to its waterways hasn’t always been positive, Angelo said. “Some of our creeks and streams have checkered his-

tory,” he said. “I think the non-Indigenous history around Still Creek was not always a good one.” Still Creek was plagued with industrial pollution for much of the 20th century, as silver plating, paint manufacturing and other operations pumped pollutants into it, he said. “But then there was a massive effort to clean it up and turn it around, (and) slowly but surely it’s becoming a great example of urban stream restoration.” Another local waterway, Guichon Creek, has a similar story. A section of it currently flows though culverts under pavement on the BCIT campus. A plan to “daylight” much of it will bring the creek above ground once more and return it back to life full of fish, Angelo said. “I think we’re in the midst of rewriting a new history for the creek,” he said. Angelo said these stories keep him optimistic as rivers around the world face increasing threats from pollu-

tion, urbanization, industrial development and climate change. World Rivers Day is now an international event recognized by the United Nations and celebrated by thousands of communi-

ties in more than 70 countries. But it all started right here in Burnaby, where the municipality was the first to recognize B.C. Rivers Day. “To know it all started right here is really great,” Angelo said.

The Sunday, Sept. 23 event is at Burnaby Village Museum (6501 Deer Lake Ave.) from 11 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.The free festival will include carousel rides, kids’ entertainment and special activities, including crafts,

Bored doesn’t mean bad Bianca Bujan

When I hear the words “I’m bored” spew out of one of my children’s mouths, I cringe, but I also welcome the challenge. Boredom is where creativity blooms. It’s an important reminder to think outside the box, to discover new interests and to carefully consider why the state of boredom has evolved so quickly in the first place. In an age of overscheduled kids, an interesting perspective has emerged when it comes to the association between scheduled extracurricular activities, boredom and the urge to commit crimes. According to a study conducted by Ipsos, seven in 10 parents believe young people commit crimes because they have nothing to do and nowhere to go. There appears to be a common belief among parents that it’s a crime for kids to be bored – quite literally. The NorthVancouver

kept them busy during their after-school hours. There are many great benefits to enrolling kids in sports and keeping them busy with activities, but, if a child’s day is jam-packed with scheduled activities and screen time, there is also a risk of missing out on the opportunity to explore their imaginative, creative and intuitive tendencies. When it comes to kids committing crimes, the problem doesn’t lie in the boredom itself, but in the children not learning how to channel that boredom in a safe and healthy way. If parents present themselves as positive role models, set boundaries for their kids, teach them there are consequences for their actions and provide them with the right tools to engage in safe forms of self-entertainment, boredom can be the backbone to a child’s success, not the breaking point to put them behind bars. Bianca Bujan is a mom of three, writer, editor and marketing consultant. Find her online at @bitsofbee.

GROUNDED

School District recently won a case against the parents of four teens who set fire to the roof of an elementary school, causing approximately $70,000 in damages. As a result, the parents of the 13-year-old boys will have to cover the costs to repair the damages. While I agree the parents should take financial responsibility for the costs accrued by the act of arson committed by their children, I have been surprised by the comments from other parents. Many parents seem to believe that “bored kids” are to blame for the crime committed. Some express relief that their children are enrolled in several sports and other extracurricular activities so they’re kept busy and out of crime’s way. I think overloading the after-school calendars of kids primarily to keep them out of trouble is misguided. I’d like to think that my children refrain from criminal acts because I’ve taught them to respect the property of others, not because I’ve

Beer maker, kitchen make the ultimate pairing Cayley Dobie

cdobie@burnabynow.com

It’s a match made in foodie heaven, and it’s happening right here in Burnaby. The folks over atYVR Prep, a commissary kitchen on Still Creek Avenue, are bringing fresh food to Dageraad Brewing’s tasting room.The idea for the pairing came about eight months ago, when Dageraad owner Ben Coli connected withYVR Prep cofounders Josh McWillliams, Ryan Mackay and Jason Wong. “We’ve always wanted to offer food, partly just to keep customers here for one more beer, but also just to have something to bring people in for lunchtime and things like that.We don’t really have the competency or space to have a kitchen ourselves. “It’s just not something I wanted to get into; it’s not something I need to get into because there’s other places in town that do food and specialize in food.The great

thing aboutYVR Prep is it’s just this omni kitchen that they can do anything, and they collaborate with loads of other people,” Coli said. Before the partnership began, Dageraad offered only a limited selection of food items, and most were

I think it could be some really great connections and some potential down the road

snacks like chips and pepperoni sticks.The folks at Dageraad told theYVR Prep team they wanted to have fresh items available to entice patrons to stay longer at the brewery. “We basically heard what they wanted and what they were looking for and were able to fulfil that,” McWilliams told the NOW.

McWilliams, who is also a chef at barbecue restaurant Whiskey Six, and Mackay came up with a number of items for the brewery with help from the folks at Swiss Bakery, including artisan sandwiches, trail mix and fresh pretzels. “The pretzels were a cool touch.They’re (Dageraad) a very proud Belgian-style brewery. Pretzels are huge in Belgium, so it was cool to be able to bring that aspect into it,” McWilliams said. “But the coolest part was just that another local biz wanted something and we were able to be like ‘Yeah, we can do that.’” The partnership began about two months ago and has been going well, according to Wong and McWilliams. Every day McWilliams drives over to Dageraad and drops off a few sandwiches and pretzels along with spe-

cially made mustard featuring Dageraad’s own Burnabarian beer.The orders are placed the night before and can vary from five or so sandwiches to 20 or more sandwiches on the weekends, plus the pretzels and trail mix. “And, with each week, we’ve been increasing the numbers; they’ve been ordering more and more from us. So it seems pretty organic on their part, where their patrons are really responding well to the food,”Wong said. Looking forward,Wong would like to see this concept expand to other breweries and businesses that don’t have access to fullscale kitchens. “It’s something that we’d love to continue, and if that piques the interest of other breweries or pubs or restaurants out there, then, yeah, we’d be more than happy to

Steelers seeking symetry Grandview still hunting for first win streak Dan Olson

dolson@burnabynow.com

Learning to dance can be a frustrating experience, especially if you’re anticipating a Gene Kelly-like dash but are locked into a Dancing With the Stars’ one-step, two-step trial. It seems the Grandview Steelers are stuck more in a rut than a groove. Although the season is just five games old, the junior B hockey club continues to evade a consistent result, surviving another split last week. Fourth in the Pacific Junior B Hockey League’s Tom Shaw Conference at 3-2-0, Grandview was sent home reeling Friday after a 5-1 loss but got back on the winning track thanks to an 8-3 spanking of Surrey on Sunday. The two games couldn’t have been more different, but the two vastly different opponents played a large role in that. In Abbotsford, the Steelers found themselves trailing 4-0 after 20 minutes, after the aggressive Pilots chased starter Cale Dolan from the game by converting four times on 10 shots. It wasn’t until early in the third, when Tomislav Zlomislic cashed in a powerplay goal, that Grandview gave the home team any cause for concern. This despite the Steelers being awarded nine powerplay chances in a tilt where Abbotsford served 108 minutes in penalties, including seven misconducts. Grandview was tagged with 66 penalty minutes in the rough affair. In Sunday’s win, it was a different story as the Steelers built up a 6-0 lead over the first 28 minutes. Anthony Belevoli, Mateo Coltellaro and Zlomislic counted two goals apiece, with singles by Connor Alderson and Brett Cox.They outshot the winless Knights 48-15, with 41 of those shots coming in the first 40 minutes. Grandview has another chance to create its first winning streak, playing Thursday (past the NOW’s deadline) in Richmond, and hosting Ridge Meadows on Sunday, 7:15 p.m. at the Burnaby Winter Club.

TWICE AS NICE: Burnaby’s Robert Couzens shows off the belts he won earlier this month while boxing at a Canada-Puerto Rico fight event in Winnipeg. The national champion won a 3-0 decision over his rival and is slated to fight again for Canada in the Dominican Republic next week. PHOTO DAN OLSON

Clean sweep for Couzens in Winnipeg

Burnaby boxer wins unanimous decision for Canada against Puerto Rican rival Dan Olson

dolson@burnabynow.com

Sizing up his competition, Burnaby’s Robert Couzens expected to face a rapid-fire test as he pulled on the Team Canada top and trunks to box a rival from Puerto Rico. It wasn’t a new experience for him, but Couzens’ last national team match was nearly nine years ago as a junior. Fighting adults is a whole different ball game. Couzens stepped into the Winnipeg ring on Sept. 6 and emerged victorious, beatingYoniel Gonzalez Mendez 3-0 in a unanimous decision. He did it despite not being in the best possible shape. “I didn’t feel my cardio or conditioning was up to par from what it was at nationals, due to not having my coach around in the summer and not pushing myself as much,” said Couzens. “I still felt

like I was above what I needed to win that fight. I still had something left in the tank.” It turned out that proved to be a factor, after his rival came out fast and furious, only to tire over the three-round 69-kilogram match. “This guy was a tough contender, and he did come forward a lot, but what worked in my benefit was he gassed out halfway through the second round,” he recalled. “I could see him huffing and puffing, my coaches were yelling he looked gassed, so I tried to pick it up a bit more.” A few weeks after the bout, which was voted at the conclusion of the Canada-Puerto Rico competition as the fight of the night, Couzens still showed some of the signs of a battle. All in day’s work, he said. “I remember I backed him up in his corner with a couple of jabs, threw a big left hook and I saw, it was like in slow motion, his legs start to do the noodle dance,” the

national team member said. “One thing I’ve always needed to capitalize on is when you see them wobbling you have to attack right away. It just flashed in my eyes, and I went to attack. As I went to the big right-left (combination) he caught my left and grappled me up, so we were caught up and I missed that opportunity.We were wrapped up until the bell rang.” Having taken the national title in April on a 3-2 decision, Couzens had planned for a fight or two in preparation for his national team spots. Unfortunately, the scheduled fights fell through. His coach, Mihai Afloarei, was away for a couple of months and it was up to the Burnaby North alum to keep up the pace. That was a challenge, but for the most part the youth worker with the City of Burnaby upheld the training regime. “When the coach is there, you are going really hard.When the coach isn’t there, you kind of slack

off a bit. I could tell myself that I was above where I usually train myself, but I have to act like my coach has been on me. I’d hear his voice but sometimes you block it out, because those couple of seconds you want to get a break, but that’s when he’d push me twice as hard.” While Afloarei is back and the two have resumed training, they’ll be without a facility after Core Studio on East Hastings, just on the other side of Kootenay Loop, closes its doors in October. Afloarei is reaching out to find a place where he, Couzens and his other fighters can work out and spar. For Couzens, getting to fight for Canada again was a thrill – especially with the win. “There’s lots of adrenalin, for sure,” he said. “I think this is a big step in my senior career because I hadn’t been on the international team since I was a junior for three years. It’s a totally different scene Continued on page 33

Burnaby rowers net silver Canada captured a welldeserved silver medal in the women’s eight A final at the world rowing championships Sunday in Bulgaria. Contributing to the win were a pair of Burnaby Lake Rowing Club athletes, Stephanie Grauer and Madison Mailey. Canada placed second behind the U.S. and turned a fourth-place position at the halfway mark into a thrilling duel down the stretch.

Overtaking the powerful Netherlands team, the Canadian eight closed the gap on Australia for a photo finish, with the difference between second and third an eighth of a second (6:03.05).The U.S. won with a time of 6:00:97. It was Canada’s second straight silver medal at the worlds, having achieved that feat in 2017 with nearly the same crew. But both Grauer and Mailey were new additions,

having moved up from the under-23 national boat. “It is a really big honour to race in this boat with these girls because they have so much combined experience from previous world championships and Olympic Games,” said Grauer, a member of the u23 W8+ gold medal team. “They have been my idols, and to have an amazing regatta like this really speaks to their leadership on and off the water.”

Continued from page 32 now, you’re with seniors now – different strength, different muscle mass. It was just awesome to represent the country again, it feels amazing.” Team Canada is slated to head to the Dominican Republic next week for another series, but hurricane concerns could scuttle that trip. In the meantime, Couzens

is going to continue putting in the work and preparing for his next opportunity. “I can remember making the team the first time (as a junior), I was ecstatic to make it to that level,” he said. “That’s what hard

work does and what listening to your coach gets you. It was an ecstatic feeling getting to that level, knowing you have Canada on your back. I’m thrilled to be here again.”

This is what mentoring looks like.
