Showdown on Brentlawn Drive TIGHT SQUEEZE: Transit buses have been forced into head-to-head showdowns on Brentlawn Drive as workers at nearby construction sites are taking up all the parking.

Transit buses and big trucks are being forced into increasingly frequent headto-head showdowns in the 4600 block of Brentlawn Drive in Burnaby thanks to construction workers pinching off the street with their parked vehicles. Major construction at Brentwood Town Centre draws about 700 workers from across the Lower Mainland to the Brentwood area every weekday, according to city staff, and their parked vehicles re-

duce Brentlawn to one travel lane. That leads to big headaches for bus drivers and passengers when two Route 134 buses or a bus and a truck meet head-on midblock. “If one bus is approaching from Beta and another one is approaching from the Fairlawn side, they can’t see each other because of the length of the block, and there’s a little bit of grade difference,” said City of Burnaby director of engineering Doug Louie to the city’s public safety committee earlier this month. The buses can’t just back

up to get out of the way. A transit supervisor needs to be called in to guide them backward while passengers either wait on board or get off and find another way to their destination. “It happened from time to time in the past,”TransLink spokesperson Chris Bryan told the NOW. “There are other areas in the region where this does happen from time to time, but in the past year this has become more of a chronic situation, so that’s why we’re taking steps and working with the City of Burnaby to address it.”

But the city’s first solution – to limit parking on the street to three hours on weekdays – has sparked protest from residents. They want the city to institute residents-only parking on the street or move the bus route, but the city has rejected both those ideas, saying either would just move the problem to a different street. Staff is now recommending the creation of a 30-metre, 7 a.m.-to- 7 p.m., Monday-to-Friday no-parking zone in the middle of the block that would allow buses and bigger trucks to pass

each other. The plan would only take away about 20 metres of parking, since there is already a fire hydrant midblock with five metres of no parking on either side of it. Coun. Sav Dhaliwal isn’t convinced the pullout would do the trick and told the public safety committee the 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. time period should be shortened. He also encouraged staff to keep pressing Shape Properties, the mall developer, to come up with ways to keep workers from clogging up residential streets. “They need to make a lit-

tle bit more effort,” Dhaliwal said. Louie said he had already “pushed and prodded” Shape to do more, including recommending the company provide a shuttle for workers, as Fortis has done during its work upgrading a gas line from Coquitlam from Vancouver. “It is an expensive option,” Louie said. The committee eventually voted to table the recommendation so staff could first consult with the residents that would be impacted by the proposed 30-metre no-parking zone.

Airtight, efficient and green Burnaby sets new standards for environmentally friendly buildings to increase energy efficiciency. The goal is to cut GHGs by 70 per cent or more in some new developments in the city.

Kelvin Gawley

kgawley@burnabynow.com

Nearly half of Burnaby’s greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) come from people heating and cooling their homes and businesses, according to a city report. With that in mind on Monday, city council set course for new rules governing energy efficiency in new buildings.The new policies laid out in the report could reduce GHG emissions by 70 per cent or more in new apartment, office and shopping developments, according to city staff. “Buildings that use less resources, (while using) renewable energy systems and sustainable materials support a healthy environment,” wrote Lou Pelletier, Burnaby’s director of planning and building. He said developments

This timeline is intended to give industry enough lead-time to prepare …

built after the rules come into effect will save money in the long run, by slashing heating bills, as well as create “green” jobs in the short term. The new rules are expected to take force July 1, 2019, after the city’s building bylaw is amended. “This timeline is intended to give industry enough lead-time to prepare and adapt to new practices,” Pelletier wrote. SO WHAT ARE THE NEW RULES? The city is currently focusing on what the BC Building Code calls “Part 3” buildings – commercial buildings taller than three storeys or with a footprint larger than 600 square metres (1,968 sq. ft.) This includes “apartments, offices, shopping centres, hotels and some mixed-use buildings.” The policy framework has five main components: ENERGY MODELING AND

AIRTIGHTNESS TESTING This policy would require developers to use software that predicts the energy use and GHG emissions of their planned “Part 3 “ buildings. Once a building is nearly complete, builders would have to test it for airtightness. “Achieving higher levels of energy efficiency requires more airtight buildings (while noting that fresh air is still delivered through efficient ventilation systems),” Pelletier’s report says. Data from this testing would be used by the city to ensure developers are complying with the new rules. MORE ENERGY-EFFICIENT BUILDINGS The city’s plan calls for standards capping overall energy use of the buildings in question.This gives flexibility to developers to implement the energy source that fits best, Pelletier wrote. “However, this limitation may result in negligible or modest GHG reduction, depending on the type of fuel used for heating and cooling,” he wrote. An apartment building could meet these efficiency standards while using natural gas, but would only see a 10 per cent reduction in GHG emissions, according to Pelletier’s report. “For these reasons, Burnaby’s proposed green building policy for Part 3 buildings includes provisions to encourage the use of low carbon energy systems (LCES).” LOW-CARBON ENERGY SYSTEMS The city wants to see developers pursue the use of renewable energy to power their buildings’ heating, cooling and hot water systems. “LCES technologies include, but are not limited to, air and ground source heat pump systems, waste heat recovery systems, biomass and solar energy systems, all of which have previously been implemented in Burnaby and neighbouring municipalities,” Pelletier wrote. According to the report, both Brentwood Town Centre and Simon Fraser University already use such systems.

NEW STANDARDS: All new large-scale developments such as apartments, offices and shopping centres will have to adhere to stricter rules to boost energy efficiency. PHOTO NOW FILES

Solar energy: Former Burnaby Mayor Derek Corrigan is pictured in 2013 discussing how the Bonsor Recreation Complex would receive more than $270,000 to retrofit its solar hot water system from the federal Gas Tax Fund. PHOTO NOW FILES

FLEXIBILITY TO EFFICIENCY STANDARDS To make way for the use of such systems, the city is prepared to relax its efficiency and airtightness standards. This will make implementation LCES more affordable and feasible for developers, according to the

report. This “flexibility” will make life easier for developers, according to Pelletier. “For example, a particular site may be ideally suited to a geo-exchange system due to the geology. On another site, the designer may want to pursue an architectural design that lends itself

more easily to a highly efficient building envelope.” MONITOR AND REPORT Following the maxim “what gets measured gets managed,” this policy would require building owners to report energy use online to ensure they’re meeting Burnaby’s standards.

BURNABY’S GREEN BUILDING FUTURE The city plans to set these new rules in stone with the required bylaw amendments at future council meetings. Then, it will make sure developers, staff and the public are made aware of the policies before the targeted July implementation. In early 2019, City staff and council plan to work on similar policies for “Part 9” buildings – lowrise apartments, singleand two-family homes. And the municipality is already walking the walk when it comes to implementing green techniques. The Tommy Douglas Library is heated with geothermal energy, while the pool at Bonsor Recreation Centre is heated using solar energy. New city buildings will also have to adhere to any new rules passed by council, the report says. Down the road, Pelletier wrote, the city will consider implementing energy efficiency retrofit standards for existing buildings.

Local byelection expected to take place early in 2019

South, as some speculated the party would also observe the “leader’s courtesy.” “There’s been a lot made of the leaders’ agreement, which isn’t really a thing,” he said. “If that does exist at all, it’s been more if it were the leader of the opposition but, I mean, historically you’ve seen under many situations parties run against the leaders of other political parties.” Pankratz said no matter who the Liberals run in Burnaby South, the message will be the same. “I think the Liberal Party will run on what you’ve seen the party running on across the entire country – a message of a plan for middle-class Canadians and a balance of economic and environmental concerns,” Pankratz said. A Liberal spokesperson, Braeden Caley, said the Liberals will follow their national nomination rules in all three ridings.Those rules include a green-light process and members voting for potential candidates.

The Liberal Party of Canada confirmed on Thursday it plans to run a candidate against federal NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh in the Burnaby South byelection – after months of remaining coy on the question. A party source also confirmed Prime Minister Justin Trudeau plans to call byelections “early in the new year” for the three ridings currently without MPs – Burnaby South, Outremont in Montreal andYork– Simcoe in Ontario. The Toronto Star is reporting the byelection will be set for February.The source said that will likely be the case but said it’s not certain. In late October, the leaders of the Conservative, Green and Bloc Quebecois parties joined Singh in writing a letter to Trudeau, urging him to call the three byelections.The prime minister had recently called a byelection in one eastern Ontario riding (LeedsGrenville-Thousand Islands and Rideau Lakes) days before the deadline to do so. At the time, the leaders said Trudeau was denying residents of the remaining three ridings their right to representation in Ottawa. “I’m not sure why Mr. Trudeau delayed making this call in the first place, but I’m excited to discuss the issues that matter most to the people of Burnaby South, like the housing crisis, costs of prescription drugs and threats to our environment,” Singh said in a statement Thursday. “The Liberals will need to answer to voters for their many betrayals over the past three years.With an NDP

MP the people of Burnaby know they’ll have someone in their corner pushing the government to deliver solutions they urgently need.” Singh will face off against corporate lawyer and Conservative candidate Jay Shin, the only other declared major-party candidate.The Green Party decided not run a candidate in the riding, citing the so-called “leader’s courtesy” tradition of not running candidates against rival leaders. The People’s Party, recently formed by MP Maxime Bernier, who left the Conservatives, has announced plans to run in Burnaby South but has yet to name a candidate. The Liberals have yet to nominate a candidate, but Adam Pankratz, the Liberal candidate who narrowly lost to former MP Kennedy Stewart in 2015, said he is exploring the idea of running again. Before Wednesday’s announcement, Pankratz urged the Liberals to run a candidate in Burnaby

Justice delayed again for Luka Gordic’s family

Tuesday should have been a day for justice. Instead, it’s just more frustration for the family of Luka Gordic – the 19-yearold Burnaby boy who was murdered in 2015, while he was inWhistler for what was supposed to be a fun longweekend getaway. Tuesday was scheduled to be the day when a judge sentenced three young men for their roles in Luka’s death. All three were youths at the time of the killing, so they cannot be named. A fourth man, Arvin Golic,

who was 18 at the time of the killing and has already been sentenced for his part in it, instigated the deadly swarming attack on Luka over a petty dispute. Luka’s family and the Crown have previously called for all three of the youths to be sentenced as adults. Crown prosecutor Hank Reiner argued the two men convicted of manslaughter should get a jail sentence of four to six years. For second-degree murder, the third could face a mandatory life sentence with no

Just imagine how much emotional energy it must take to prepare for something like this. chance of parole for seven years if he is sentenced as an adult. A sentencing hearing was held at the end of July, during which the family poured out all their rage at the killing and all their love for Luka. More than three-anda-half months later, Luka’s

family was bracing to finally find out how much jail time the three men would receive. But they didn’t find anything except pain. That’s because the hearing was cancelled. “We are once again very disappointed by the delay in the Judges (sic) sentencing

decision that was re-scheduled,” the family wrote on the Justice for Luka Gordic Facebook page. “The court still has not given us a new sentence hearing date.” Just imagine how much emotional energy it must take to prepare for something like this.To have to put aside your unending grief in order to be able to cope with facing three people responsible for killing Luka. Most of us, thankfully, will never have to do this, but we imagine it must be a

dreadful experience. But then to have the hearing cancelled and not know when another hearing will happen is a vicious gut punch. “The Gordic Family would like to apologize to all those who have taken time off work and to those who have made arrangements to travel from afar to attend the court hearing decision.” To the Gordic family: You, of course, have nothing to apologize for. It’s the court system that owes you an apology.

B.C. is moving too slow on ride hailing Well, shame on us for wanting Uber and Lyft. The BC NDP government has shown our demands to be unnecessary. What were we thinking? The legislation unveiled Monday to bring what the rest of North America has had for nearly a decade to quaint British Columbia depicts our taxi-seeking cities as those of calm, efficient service – a consumer apparition that merely needs tinkering with no particularly urgent disruption. If new players are to enter, well, make them work for it. The message Monday was we need to wait and wait and wait to get what others have and have and have. Like its proportional representation proposals, the ride-hailing plan leaves much to be defined in the months ahead.This is a government so intent on studying situations that it needs to start paying tuition. The general aim of its miserly announcement appears to be a protection of a business that other jurisdictions have found needless to coddle.Then again, other jurisdictions don’t see the taxi business as politically powerful in certain swing ridings that might – as the BC Liberals found – cost its government. The hurdles announced in the new law resemble those in place for a track meet’s long-distance steeplechase. The province’s Passenger Transportation Board, with its leadership a creature of cabinet, will be a more po-

liticized body invested with lots of authority to transform B.C. into what can only be described as a hybrid model of extra taxis and still-to-be-defined ridehailing service. It’ll set floor and ceiling prices, the service districts and the fees to make vehicles accessible to persons with disabilities, among much else. Drivers will need to be saints, not sinners, and pass medical exams, special training and road tests. Will it lead to lower fares? Nothing suggested so Monday. Will it lead to a raft of drivers to pursue side hustles to meet the rent? Sounds like an economic stretch. Will it lead to ride sharing by Christmas 2019? If you believe so, then yes,Virginia, there is a Santa Claus. Eight laws need amendments, and most important, a new form of per-kilometre insurance will need to be created by ICBC. This.Will.Take.Time. No one expects ICBC’s work, which ought to have started but clearly was not, to be done before next fall – that being, then, the earliest anyone can apply, far earlier than anyone actually completing an application. We may just beat autonomous vehicles to the road, but just. On a first-examination basis, Monday’s proposals look as if incumbents got in a room and tried to devise the most extensive, expensive ways to keep a new entrant from a hardy piece of the pie.

Police impounded the tenants’ vehicles and larger household items, but passersby were soon helping themselves to other items.

Opinionnow PR is a turnout remedy Editor: Re: Low turnout on PR bad for democracy, NOW Opinion, Nov. 16. In his opinion piece, Keith Baldrey gives an example whereby a majority of voters support PR over FPTP but a “low turnout” would mean “less that 25 per cent of the population would change our voting system, which is at the heart of our democracy.” Stating outright this is bad for democracy. Well then, how bad was it when the Liberals, in 2009, formed a majority government and ruled the entire province uncontested for four years having gained the support of barely 23 per cent of eligible voters? They received 45.82 per cent of the popular vote with a turnout of only 50.99 per cent of eligible voters equalling 23.3-per-cent support. That is the “bad for democracy” situation that proportional representation seeks to remedy. Attempts to diminish the validity of the possible results with obviously hypocritical arguments regarding results already occurring under the current system is what I would suggest weakens democracy here. Robert Klingle, Burnaby

Make your vote count

Editor: When a diminishing number of voters put B.C. governments in power and those majority governments receive less than 40 per cent of the popular vote, at what point is it no longer a democracy? Both these issues – declining voter turnout and governments that don’t reflect how we actually voted – will be addressed with proportional representation. With “pro rep” we’ll say goodbye to strategic voting, instead casting our ballots for those candi-

dates and parties that truly inspire us. Also, when every vote counts more people will register with Elections BC, and more of those registered voters will cast a ballot. That higher voter turnout is the foundation of a healthy democracy. Peter Cech, Burnaby

Taxi business likes delays Continued from page 6

Unlike the take-a-leap-of-faith PR referendum, it is political reassurance to the status quo, nicely couched in the more palatable concept of passenger safety. “Safety is my No. 1 concern,” said transport minister Claire Trevena, and certainly Monday the taxi business would feel that. Rather than free the market, it has coaxed into place lenience for the incumbent industry in the context of regulatory conservatism. Given that its predecessors were promising ride-hailing services for last winter, given that the government campaigned on bringing it forward then, too, given that ICBC has been aware of the need for a new form of insurance, the question that is rightfully begged:What has ICBC been doing? Better still:What is the NDP doing? The minister promised Monday an end to stranded partiers on Granville Street on a Saturday night looking to get home to Port Moody. But to do that, we will first need to freeze time. A lot of it. Kirk LaPointe is vice-president, editorial, of Glacier Media.

COURT

Kelvin Gawley

A pair of anti-pipeline protesters have asked a B.C. Supreme Court judge to recuse himself from ruling on their criminal contempt of court case due to a “reasonable apprehension of bias.” Rita Wong, 50, and Mairy Beam, 69, were both arrested on Aug. 24 for allegedly violating an injunction meant to prevent interference with work on the Trans Mountain pipeline.They have been charged with criminal contempt of court. Judge Kenneth Affleck, the same judge who granted the injunction, is expected to hear their case Dec. 3, but the defendants argue he should recuse himself from the case. Affleck has ruled on dozens of criminal contempt of court cases following repeated blockades of Trans Mountain facilities in Burnaby by environmental

and Indigenous-rights activists. Wong and Beam, who are representing themselves in court, argue Affleck has acted in ways that allow the perception of bias. “Any reasonable observer would perceive Judge Kenneth Affleck as being biased against land and water defenders,”Wong said in an emailed statement to the NOW. “Judge Affleck appears to have a vested selfinterest in his own court-ordered injunction.” They made the arguments in B.C. Supreme Court on Thursday before Affleck, who reserved judgment on whether to recuse himself. “We believe another judge should hear alleged violations of Judge Affleck’s injunction in order to ensure public confidence in the fairness of the legal system,”Wong said in the statement.

Affleck previously denied an Indigenous defendant’s request for a Gladue report – a report meant to help a judge rule on sentencing Indigenous defendants,Wong and Beam say. He also, they claim, departed from norms when he didn’t accept joint submissions from the Crown and defence who recommended a $500 fine for Green MP Elizabeth May following her criminal contempt of court conviction. Affleck imposed a $1,500 fine instead. Wong and Beam go on to list a number of examples from various injunction-related cases they say would lead an observer to think he is biased. “Note that we are not alleging actual bias,” Beam and Wong wrote. “We cannot speak for what is in the mind of the presiding judge. However, we nevertheless conclude that a reasonable apprehension of bias exists.”

Residents ignore smell of smoke Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

Residents of a Burnaby house that went up in flames Wednesday could have avoided a lot of damage if they’d called the fire department as soon as they smelled smoke the night before. Fire crews were called to the 7500 block of Mark Crescent for a house fire at about 6:40 a.m.Wednesday. By the time they got

there, flames were showing out the front door and smoke was coming from the roof of the single-family dwelling. An elderly woman was found on the front lawn and treated for smoke inhalation, but she refused to go to the hospital, according to assistant fire Chief Gavin Summers. None of the other occupants, including a cat and a German shepherd, were injured in the blaze.

The residents of the house had smelled smoke the night before but assumed it was coming from a neighbour’s house, according to owner Halil Bulubay. He said things seemed fine when he and his wife left for work at about 5:45 a.m., but, when he came back a short time later, he found fire crews there. “There’s extensive damage to the house,” Summers said. “It’s too bad they never called us sooner.”

Communitynow Mother turns tragic loss into inspiration to help others Kelvin Gawley

kgawley@burnabynow.com

A Burnaby mother who lost a son to suicide is taking action to help adult students suffering from learning disabilities, in the hopes her family’s tragic story doesn’t repeat. In 2016, Cindy Lapointe’s son, Jeremy Wohl, was 27, in his third year of carpentry school at Kwantlen Polytechnic University in Cloverdale and struggling to get the help he needed to accommodate his dyslexia. He needed access to a quiet room to study, more time for assignments and could have benefitted from audio software to read his textbooks, Lapointe says, but the school’s disability accommodations office was overworked, under-resourced and failed to get him everything he needed. In December of that year, one week before his final exams,Wohl died by suicide. Lapointe believes Wohl’s frustration and heightened anxiety from school led to his death. She believes he would still be alive today if he had received the help he

needed. “I think he would have struggled through it, I think he would have passed and I think he would be working back at his job, where he was very effective,” she said. Last week, Lapointe hosted a pub night and raised more than $10,000 to help others like Wohl, who are still struggling.

I don’t want (anyone else) to feel so dismissed and to feel so alone and to feel that nobody’s really listening.

She’s unsure exactly how the money will be spent, but hopes it has a direct effect as soon as possible. Lapointe said there’s a need for a centralized resource tracking what accomodations are and aren’t available at post-secondary institutions, advocacy for more resources and assessments for peo-

ple with learning disabilities who do not yet have official designations. “We just see a need here for these students that suffer from learning disabilities – and they suffer from it; it’s not an easy life to have a learning disability,” Lapointe said. Lapointe said she and her husband are looking into setting up an official society to further these goals.While there are existing organizations helping and advocating for people with learning disabilities, they mostly concentrate on the needs of children, she said. Lapointe said people assume that once students with learning disabilities become adults and move into post-secondary studies, they can navigate challenges on their own, but that’s often not the case. Since her son’s death, Lapointe said she’s met more students like him, struggling to get the help they need. “I don’t want [anyone else] to feel so dismissed and to feel so alone and to feel that nobody’s really listening,” she said.

Friends: Jeremy Wohl’s friends and family gathered at a local pub recently to raise funds for adults with learning disabilities. From left are Vanessa Herdman, Nathan Wohl (Jeremy’s brother) and Erica Monk holding Jeremy’s picture. PHOTO CONTRIBUTED

Communitynow Gala raises half-a-million dollars for city hospiTreasures of India gala pulls in $500,000 to help fund a new CT scanner for Burnaby Hospital

A series of surprise gifts during a “Fund-a-Cause” charity round helped push the total raised last Friday night for the Burnaby Hospital Foundation to $500,000. The foundation hosted the Treasures of India gala and the segment began with a combined $60,000 lead gift from a cohort of Burnaby Hospital physicians. That number was then matched by a succession of private donations, as well as $25,000 from the Burnaby Firefighters Charitable Society. A news release said local resident William McCarthy was so moved by the generosity that he stepped forward with an additional $100,000 donation. The funds raised will be used toward a new $1.1-million CT scanner for Burnaby Hospital, which is currently operating with just one aging unit. Recently, the current

scanner was down for unscheduled maintenance for an entire weekend, causing patients to be diverted to a nearby hospital.The incident was noted at the gala by head of emergency, Dr. Paul Johar. “It was the third time the

os and circumstances. Right now, Burnaby Hospital does not.” Thanks to the donors, the hospital soon will. The sold-out gala, presented by the Burnaby Firefighters Charitable Society, was hosted by Love it or List itVancouver host – and Burnaby boy – Todd Talbot. It featured an Indian-inspired theme including dance performances, an Indian-fusion menu, and remarks from new Mayor Mike Hurley. The evening culminated with yet another unexpected surprise – a further $250,000 donation from the Burnaby Firefighters Charitable Society in support of the foundation’s long-running campaign to support a Mental Health and Substance Use Zone at the hospital.The contribution matches another $250,000 commitment made by the firefighters last February.

We need to have the equipment necessary to serve our patients in a timely fashion.

Communitynow ‘Poverty-prooﬁng’ schools sends the wrong message Mommy’s

GROUNDED Bianca Bujan

Brand names have always been at the forefront of fashion fads in school. For my generation, it was button-fly Guess jeans, brightcoloured Club Monaco sweatshirts and lace-up Doc Marten boots that were the must-have styles of my high school days. There were brands that my parents couldn’t afford and brands that I begged for every single day – desperate to fit in with the high-priced teen trends. My mom did her best, scooping up lookalike styles from second-hand shops. Sometimes for Christmas, an overpriced top or pair of shoes would appear under the tree, leaving me shrieking with excitement. Today, the desire for duds

donning the biggest names in fashion still exists – only the names have changed and the price tags seem to have spiked significantly. For Woodchurch High School in Birkenhead – a town in northern England – those break-thebank brands have now been banned. A letter was sent home to the parents, outlining the clothing items that were no longer allowed.Topping the list of banned brands was Toronto-made Canada Goose jackets. With price points ranging from several hundred dollars to $1,000 per jacket, the school’s headteacher, Rebekah Phillips, explained in an interview with BBC News that the measure was put in place to “povertyproof” the school. After receiving a letter from a former student stating that econom-

Skirting the issue by telling the students which clothes they can and cannot wear doesn’t dissolve the issue or create equality …

ic backgrounds should not be rubbed in their faces at school, and hearing the same request from a few parents, Phillips decided to take action. Several schools in the U.K. have taken a similar stance on “poverty-proofing” classrooms, implementing bans on items such as expensive pencil cases. One school even requested all students carry the same backpack brand. While I think the intentions are good, I don’t agree that banning expensive items from school is sending the right message to kids.

Economic inequality is common in schools – in fact, in the U.K. school that is enforcing the jacket ban, nearly 46 per cent of the students come from low-income families. Skirting the issue by telling the students which clothes they can and cannot wear doesn’t dissolve the issue or create equality, it just covers it up. Instead of banning all high-end brands, perhaps the inequality can be addressed in other ways. Schools could try educating kids about their buying habits, encourage community involvement such as

Furry friends can get photos with Santa It’s the most magical time of the year and many people are hunting for the perfect place to take a festive photo of their furry best friend with Santa.

Artsnow Burnaby singer onstage in Cosi fan tutte

Opera Mariposa’s new production moves the Mozart favourite to a modern-day beachside resort A Burnaby performer is front and centre in a fresh take on one of Mozart’s best-known operas. Opera Mariposa is staging a contemporary interpretation of Cosi fan tutte (“They all do it”), Nov. 30 to Dec. 8 at Marpole United Church in Vancouver. Mezzo-soprano Shanté Van Horlick appears as Dorabella, double-cast alongside Melissa Ratcliff (who appears Dec. 1 and 7). Van Horlick is an upand-coming name on the classical music scene, having already performed with companies such as Burnaby Lyric Opera,Vancouver Opera, Bard on the Beach, the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra and others.This is her first time with Opera Mariposa, and she was thrilled to be offered a part in this 21st-century reimagining of Mozart’s classic opera. “It’s so much fun to be playing Dorabella,”Van

Onstage

What: Mozart’s Cosi fan tutte, presented by Opera Mariposa When: Nov. 30, Dec. 1, 7 and 8 at 7:30 p.m. Where: Marpole United Church, 1296 West 67th Ave., Vancouver Tickets: $28 general, $24 students and seniors, $18 each for groups of four or more. Available at the door, at www.operamariposa. com or from Brown Paper Tickets at 1-800-838-3006.

Horlick says in a press release. “She’s such a silly and outrageous character, but she also gets such beautiful music. I’m especially excited about our director’s new take on this opera.We’re setting the show at a beachside resort, and the show has a tropical vibe as well as lots of sitcom-like shenanigans. I can tell you this – I’ve never before done a show where I got to sing opera in a bath-

ing suit!” Stage director Robin Hahn says Van Horlick was a perfect fit for the character of Dorabella. “We needed someone with a gorgeous voice and technical virtuosity who also had incredible timing, and Shante’s audition absolutely blew us away,” Hahn says in the release. “Opera Mariposa has a mandate to support emerging talent, and we’re absolutely thrilled to be showcasing such an incredible young artist with local roots.” Van Horlick will star alongside an international cast hailing from across North America and Europe, conducted by Ian Dives and accompanied by Ryan Goetz. Van Horlick has also been invited to join Mariposa as a member of their Repertory Concert Artist Program, which presents commissioned concerts year-round throughout the region.

The holiday season is nearly upon us once more, and that means it’s time for B.C. Liquor Stores’ annual share-a-bear campaign. Every year, government liquor stores in the province sell stuffed bears in support of local charities.The bears cost $11.70 plus tax and when you buy one, the store donates the bear’s twin to a charity of its choice, according to a press release. Customers can also donate both bears, if they want. Last year, Burnaby liquor stores donated more than 400 teddy bears to a number of local charities, including Willingdon Care Centre; Monarch Place; Camp Kerry; and B.C. Children’s Hospital. Overall, more than 22,000 stuffed bears were donated across the province last year. Stores in Dawson Creek, Fort St. John and Prince George (Pine Centre) sold the most bears, according to the release. Burnaby’s B.C. Liquor Stores are located at: Northgate, 3433 North Rd.; Metrotown, 4429 Kingsway; HighGate, 7155 Kingsway; Market Crossing, 7509 Market Crossing; Kensington, 6512 Hastings St.; SOLO, 4455 Skyline Dr.; North Burnaby, 4450 Hastings St.; and UniverCity, 8992 University High St. The campaign runs until the end of December.

Unbeaten Alpha unable to buy a break One goal bumps Aztecs from medal round

Dan Olson

dolson@burnabynow.com

In an unlucky twist of fate, the Alpha Aztecs were unbeaten at this week’s AA provincial soccer championships in Burnaby but came away with the short end of the straw. Despite tying for first place in pool play after three games, the Grade 11-heavy Aztecs found themselves relegated to the consolation bracket due to a tiebreaking formula that put Kamloops’ Sa-Hali Sabres and Maple Ridge’s Thomas Haney Thunder ahead of them. The end result saw Alpha roll with the punch and finish the tournament on a three-game win streak to place ninth overall. “We wanted to provide our grade 12s, along with some key grade 11s and 10s, a very positive experience, and to play like we did was a great achievement for our school,” coach Antonio

Dal Sasso said. “We hopefully see ourselves making the top-16 bracket for at least the next few years.” Starting the 16-team tourney with draws against Haney (3-3) and Sa-Hali (1-1) put them in a good spot, considering they were seeded third in the pool. It all came down to the results against Hazelton, with Alpha striking for a dominant 7-1 victory. However, Sa-Hali also managed seven goals against Hazelton and surrendered none, which gave them a single-goal edge in goal differential. For the second spot, a penalty kick duel with Thomas Haney saw the Aztecs come up short 4-3. Dal Sasso said there were numerous reasons to be proud of the Burnaby boys, including how they rallied against the Thunder. “We were down 3-1 with 15 minutes to go and needed at least a tie.The boys persevered and scored two in the last 15 min-

utes,” he said. In the team’s first game outside of pool play, Ben Beaulieu tallied four times in the team’s 5-2 win over Duchess Park. In their final

match for the ninth-10th place spot, Alpha edged Brentwood College 1-0 in penalty kicks. Beaulieu was named to the Commissioner’s 11 all-star team.

SFU swimmers chart big ﬁnal day in Cleveland

The Simon Fraser University men’s swim team dialed it up at the Magnus Cup meet in Cleveland, Ohio, last week en route to a second-place finish. The trio of MacKenzie Hamill, Andrew Woinoski and Tim Woinoski claimed the top three spots in the 1,650-yard freestyle event

on the final day. Hamill took first with a time of 15:23.8, while the Woinoskis placed second and third. Alex Woinoski finished fifth. The Woinoskis are graduates of Burnaby Mountain Secondary. Adrian VanderHelm, meanwhile, took top honours in the 200-yard butterfly with a new

meet record time of 1:45.5. SFU’s Antonio Marino won the 200-yard breaststroke by setting a new all-time club record at 2:00.0. In the 400-yard freestyle relay, the quartet of Rolando Hernandez, Mathew Fuller, Gabriel Lee and VanderHelm came first with a time of 3:00.2.

With the wind-up of last week’s senior girls AA Lower Mainlands not being all they hoped for, the St.Thomas More Knights are now on a mission to bring it home. As the squad entered the prep week for the provincial championships, which run Nov. 28 to Dec. 1 at the Burnaby school, they had redemption on the mind. Although they fell to fifth overall at the Lower Mainlands, the Knights found more than a glimmer to hang their hopes on. Being the host school meant they had already secured their position at the B.C.s, so how high they finished last week wasn’t as important as how well they felt exiting the zone tourney. Still, getting usurped 2-1 by unranked Elphinstone in the quarterfinal was a reminder of how valuable consistency over a full match can be. “We came up against a very strong Elphinstone team (in the quarterfinals), and they had a really great tournament, showcasing a lot of resilience and mental toughness,” remarked Knights co-coach Cassie Lauang. “They outplayed us during the big points and caught us on our heels in the second and third sets. It was a tough loss, but one that forced us to adapt and learn on the fly.” It was close, with the decisive tally going to the wall at 16-14 reflecting the fight the Knights put up.They did it also without a pair of starters – twins Giulianna and Isabella Gaspar – and provided a platform for others to rise to the occasion. Of those players, Grade 12 libero Francesca Sandini and Grade 11 Alex Tarazi made the most of it and delivered some strong work at right side and libero, respectively. “(Sandini) really stepped up and played a role in the games that followed that loss. Frankie was able to step into the right side position, one that she hasn’t played since September, and brought some great firepower out of there,” noted Lauang. Elphinstone went on to finish second to No. 1-rankedYork House at the Mainlands. By ending the tourney on a twogame win streak, beating both St. Pat’s and St.Thomas Aquinas by 2-0 scores, STM garnered a positive result from a tough weekend. The Knights, who finished second at last year’s provincials, boast a young lineup, with just four Grade 12s. Among the newcomers is Ezawa Malish, a Grade 10 who only picked up the sport a year ago and has established herself as a strong asset at the net. Continued on page 29

Last year fuels STM

Continued from page 28 “(Malish) is a force to be reckoned with when she’s in the zone,” Lauang said. “We call her ‘Ez’ because she makes blocking look just so darn easy sometimes.” The Grade 12s, meanwhile, are well-versed in what’s ahead. Last year’s result is something that can be improved on. And gold is definitely their goal. “I think our returning players have been waiting to be back at provincials since they took the silver medal off their necks last year.They were very proud to place second, but it’s that pursuit of excellence that’s been eating at them since last year.They’re antsy to get started and they’re a dangerous group of four who are now hungry for it,” said Lauang. “The rest of the team

will follow our seniors’ example and will bring a lot of joy to the team.” It’ll be how they carry that on to the court next week, with action at the B.C.s kicking off on Thursday at 11 a.m. “A lot of our girls are very athletic and competitive,” noted Lauang. “When it’s combined with the volleyball IQ and tenacity that our seniors bring to the table, they’re unstoppable. At provincials, it’s now going to be about who is ready for the tough matches, the tough sets, the tough points and which teams can outlast each other through those battles.” The tournament semifinals are slated for Dec. 1 at 11 a.m., with the gold medal game going at 6:30 p.m. at STM.
