Two government pot shops eyed for Kingsway But Burnaby council isn’t considering allowing private retail cannabis stores at this time Kelvin Gawley

kgawley@burnabynow.com

Burnaby city council has advanced plans for the municipality’s first two government-run cannabis stores.

The province’s Liquor Distribution Branch plans to open both BC Cannabis Stores on Kingsway – one in the Old Orchard Shopping Centre in Metrotown and the other in the Kings Crossing development currently under construction in

Edmonds.

Council directed staff to keep working with the LDB on plans for the two shops and to advance the rezoning applications to future public hearings.

Mayor Mike Hurley thinks the planned shops are appropriate for their proposed locations.

He said he is happy with the city’s current policy of only allowing a maximum of one government store in each of the city’s four town

centres. At this time, the city isn’t considering allowing private retail cannabis stores.

“It will be controlled just like the liquor stores,” Hurley said. “As we all know, it’s legal now, whether we like it or not.”

Kamloops is home to the only open government cannabis store, but 19 more have already been approved by local governments, according to a City of Burnaby report.

A letter from the LDB to Burnaby promises the two stores will have frosted windows, strict ID checks, high security and odour mitigation procedures. It also promises to provide good jobs, starting at $21 an hour, plus benefits.

“Anytime there’s a living wage where people can actually afford to really take part in our economy ... is always good for our economy,” Hurley said.

He said he’s not sure

what the potential opening dates for the stores could be, but he expects the applications to come to public hearing in the fall.

Council also advanced plans for two cannabis-related facilities Monday.

Ascension Bioceuticals wants to make tinctures, oral sprays and capsules in a commercial/industrial building near the Production Way-University SkyTrain station, while Medipure Pharmaceuticals wants to

build a new research facility for cannabis drugs in a Beta Avenue industrial complex.

Neither company plans to grow cannabis plants at the locations. While the plans have been sent back to staff to prepare for a future hearing, Hurley said there are unanswered questions about potential smells from the facilities and environmental impacts.

“We need a lot more information before we could move it forward,” he said.

Citynow PIPELINE

Protest held on eve of Trans Mountain decision

Dustin Godfrey

dgodfrey@burnabynow.com

The fight against the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion continues as the country awaits the next major decision from the federal government on the project.

Coast Protectors, the Georgia Strait Alliance and several other groups held a rally against the pipeline expansion at the park beside Science World Sunday afternoon, where speakers emphasized the urgency of climate action.

That message, which riled up a crowd of several hundred, was articulated not only about the pipeline expansion project, but on B.C. liquefied natural gas, municipal zoning and the construction industry.

Get involved. Go to your MP or MLA’s office.

The protest came only days before an expected announcement from the federal Liberal government following renewed Indigenous consultations on the project.Those consultations were ordered by the Federal Court of Appeal, which found previous consultations did not live up to the federal government’s constitutional duties.

Svend Robinson, NDP candidate for Burnaby North-Seymour, pushed the Canadian Green New Deal, which proponents say would transition Canada into a net-zero-emissions society without leaving behind labour and marginalized communities.

“We need bold, transformative policies to phase out fossil fuels as fast as possible to leave much of the oil

and gas in the ground, no new oil and gas infrastructure, a rapid transition to renewable green energy – in short, we need that Canadian Green New Deal,” Robinson told the enthusiastic crowd.

“We have to work respectfully, with our partners in the labour movement for a just transition, and nation to nation with Indigenous peoples, we can create hundreds of thousands of good new jobs – good new jobs, in renewable energy, retrofitting homes and buildings, public transit, electrifying our power grid, building affordable housing, because we all know the market has failed.”

Robinson said such a massive initiative could be paid for, in part, by halting federal subsidies to oil and gas, including the $40-billion LNG Canada project in B.C., which has major support from the federal Liberal Party and the BC NDP. South Burnaby resident Penny Oyama, who has helped federal NDP campaigns in her riding, said she was at the rally because she believes the climate emergency is “truly the fight of our life.”

She offered her support for Robinson’s message, including pushing a Canadian Green New Deal.

“It’s all to do with justice for everybody,” she said.

“These [rally attendees] are the converted.These are the people that always come out to support this sort of thing.There’s a lot of familiar faces.”

She noted that the turnout was about normal for this type of event, but added that the people who “continually show up” will continue pushing for climate action.

“When doo-doo starts flying off the fan, these are the people who’ll be there

Oyama urged those concerned about the climate emergency to take action not only during elections, but in day-to-day life.

“Get involved. Go to your MP or MLA’s office. Buttonhole the guy. Ask the difficult questions and ask for answers.We don’t have to wait until there’s an election going on and somebody de-

cides to put together an allcandidates meeting.You don’t have to wait for that.

You can do this every day.”

Other speakers included Rueben George, manager of the Tsleil-Wau-

tuth First Nation’s Sacred Trust; Union of B.C. Indian Chiefs president Grand Chief Stewart Phillip and Allie Ho, a local 17-year-old activist with the school climate strike.

HOUSING

Location announced for city’s first-ever year-round shelter More details about the first-ever year-round shelter in Burnaby were announced Friday morning.

Located at 2294 Douglas Rd. in the southern Brentwood area, the temporary shelter will provide up to 40 beds and is expected to open by the end of summer 2019 once renovations to

the interior of the building are complete.

The Progressive Housing Society, a local non-profit, will manage the day-today operation of the shelter. A minimum of two staff will be on site 24/7 and the society’s outreach team will also be located at the shelter. Staff from Fraser Health

will be on-site regularly for additional support as necessary. Shelter intake will occur during the day and visitors will not be permitted at the site.

The society will set up a community advisory committee prior to the shelter opening and will meet monthly to address any is-

sues.The committee will include representatives from Progressive Housing Society, BC Housing, the City of Burnaby, Fraser Health and the RCMP, as well as community neighbours.

In addition, BC Housing will host community dialogue sessions in June and will invite neighbours to at-

tend and learn more about the project.

BC Housing will enter into a three-year lease for the site.The site is already zoned appropriately, so there is no municipal process required.

The province will provide annual operating funding to the Progressive Housing So-

ciety to manage the shelter.

A modular supportive housing project on Norland Avenue in Burnaby is also expected to open in summer 2019.The Progressive Housing Society will also operate this new supportive housing, which will provide 52 homes for people experiencing homelessness.

It was a deadly week on the streets of Burnaby last week, with three people killed in crashes in different parts of the city.

A 75-year-old pedestrian died on Marine Way near Boundary Road on June 6 at about 11:20 a.m. after a hit-and-run collision involving a semi-truck pulling a dark-red shipping container.

Witnesses told police the truck driver stopped briefly at the scene before taking off eastbound on Marine Way. The pedestrian did not appear to have been in a marked crosswalk at the time of the crash, according

to police.

Burnaby RCMP are still looking for the driver and the suspect vehicle.

A day later, one person was killed and two taken to hospital after a multi-vehicle collision involving as many as eight vehicles at the intersection of Kingsway and Nelson Avenue Police said few details about that crash, which happened at about 2:28 p.m.

Friday, could be released but said speed was believed to have been a contributing factor.

A third person was killed later that day on Lougheed Highway between Madison and Gilmore avenues.

Police were called at about 8:50 p.m. after several

vehicles collided.

A pedestrian walking on the north side of Lougheed was hit by the vehicles and pronounced dead at the scene, according to police.

Two other people involved in the crash were taken to hospital.

Police said speed was believed to have been a contributing factor in that crash as well.

Anyone who witnessed any of these three incidents or has in-car video that recorded the scene is asked to contact Burnaby RCMP Traffic Services at 604-6469999.To remain anonymous, contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477) or submit a tip online at www.solvecrime.ca.

Witnesses sought after pedestrian hurt Burnaby RCMP would like to talk to anyone who witnessed an Edmonds-area collision that left a 53-yearold pedestrian with serious but not life-threatening injuries on June 2.

Police were called to the 7700 block of 18th Avenue at about 3:15 p.m. for reports that a woman had

been hit by a vehicle.

The driver stayed on the scene, and the woman was taken to hospital.

Police say speed and alcohol are not suspected as factors in the crash.

“The cause of the collision is still under investigation, and Burnaby RCMP is asking anyone who wit-

nessed this collision or may have any dashcam or home surveillance video of the collision to contact police at 604-646-9999,” stated a RCMP press release.

Opinion now OUR VIEW

Residents need to get behind the new shelter

For at least a decade, advocates for the homeless have been begging the City of Burnaby to act on the need for a shelter.

Our city is finally getting one, with more details being released last week on the location and how it will be run.

Now what?

What we’ve seen in so many other communities is that when a shelter or some other sort of housing for people who are homeless or at risk of become homeless finally get announced, there

is a backlash from area residents.

There are cries of “it’s the wrong location” as NIMBYs work to put enough pressure on local politicians to back down.

Hopefully this doesn’t happen here in Burnaby in the coming weeks.

Located at 2294 Douglas Rd. in the southern Brentwood area, a new temporary shelter will provide up to 40 beds and is expected to open by the end of summer 2019 once renovations to the interior of the build-

ing are complete.

The Progressive Housing Society, a local non-profit, will manage the day-today operation of the shelter.

A minimum of two staff will be on site 24/7 and the society’s outreach team will also be located at the shelter.

Staff from Fraser Health will be on-site regularly for additional support as necessary.

Shelter intake will occur during the day and visitors will not be permitted at the site.

The society will set up a

community advisory committee prior to the shelter opening and will meet monthly to address any issues.

The committee will include representatives from Progressive Housing Society, BC Housing, the City of Burnaby, Fraser Health and the RCMP, as well as community neighbours.

Those are the facts as we know them right now.This project is sorely needed in a community of nearly a quarter-million residents.

We strongly urge anyone

thinking of protesting the project to take a deep look at the plan and recognize the vital need for this sort of project.

It’s time Burnaby joined other communities.

The other good news is that a modular supportive housing project on Norland Avenue in Burnaby is also expected to open in summer 2019.

The Progressive Housing Society will also operate this new supportive housing, which will provide 52 homes for people experi-

encing homelessness.

Burnaby is still far behind other communities thanks to years of inaction, but these are two excellent projects.

Coupled with the city’s promise to continue multiple warming centres when winter hits and we’re feeling a lot more pride in Burnaby than we did a year ago.

Full credit to Mayor Mike Hurley for being a leader on this file – some humanity is finally returning to the City of Burnaby.

MY VIEW CHRIS CAMPBELL

This madness on our roads has to stop I had to change the headline related to this column when I posted it online last Saturday.

It originally said this: “Two people dead in Burnaby in two days.”

I had written it Friday night and timed it to come out Saturday.

Then I woke up to learn that a second pedestrian and a third person had been killed on a Burnaby road in just two days – this time on Lougheed Highway near Madison in a crash that involved multiple vehicles, including at least one speeding.

I can’t keep up with this.

It’s utter madness and has to stop.

A 75-year-old pedestrian was killed June 6 in an apparent hit-and-run.

Another person was killed on Friday in a situation that police say may have included up to eight vehicles at Kingsway and Nelson.

Since our story on the first dead pedestrian was posted online, I’ve seen some irritating responses to this line: “It appears as though he was not in a marked crosswalk when he was hit, police said.”

A senior citizen is dead, but some people feel a need to draw conclusions and pass judgment that it was somehow the pedestrian’s “fault” and so the man doesn’t deserve sympathy.

The implication is that if you’re not in a crosswalk then you’re fair game.

First, you should be ashamed of yourself for trying to convince other people to have just as little compassion for a dead pedestrian as

you do.

Second, you don’t know all of the facts, so maybe ease off trying to be an armchair crash specialist.

The comments are a sign of just how much animosity there is between drivers, cyclists, skateboarders and pedestrians.

I see and hear this stuff all the time.

Drivers can’t stand being criticized for lousy driving so they blow it off by saying that it’s actually those other people who don’t understand the rules of the road.

I’m not saying that cyclists and pedestrians don’t make errors in judgment or don’t follow the rules of the road.

What I’m saying is that while everybody makes mistakes, it is drivers who are the ones who end up maiming or killing when they do something foolish because they are the ones inside the hurtling piece of metal.

Drivers need to slow down.They need to watch for others.They need to stop applying makeup, shaving, eating or staring at their phones while driving (and drinking alcohol and/or smoking weed).

And stop being so angry about cyclists and pedestrians. Like I said, just mind your business and do everything you can to drive safely.

The better drivers are at what they do, the fewer people will die. Because people are dying.There have now been three pedestrian fatalities in Burnaby in the past six months.

That’s three too many.

Days numbered for old fire hall The days of the 52-year-old fire hall at the corner of Hasting Street andWillingdon Avenue were numbered in January as the city and Shell Canada got closer to a land deal that would make way for a new station to be built three blocks west on the site of a former gas station at Carleton Avenue.The historic building – Burnaby’s original fire hall 1, once used as an impromptu jail for ne’erdo-wells and truant kids – had become run down.The hall’s tower, which had been closed off for years, was also at risk of collapsing in an earthquake.

Opinion now INBOX

Alberta’sTrump-style tactics won’t work Editor: Re: Author documents Trans Mountain fight in novel, NOW, June 6 Author Robyn Allan is totally correct in decrying the destructive impact of a potential ocean oil spill in her novel.

Having lacked the foresight to refine its highly toxic bitumen, Alberta questions why the government of British Columbia does not want greatly increased shipments on our waters. The Alberta government cries foul despite the fact that major scientific studies, including a federal government report, support the position taken by British Columbia. Those studies indicate that effectively cleaning up a major ocean spill of diluted bitumen mixed with sediments – such as the sediments in our Salish Sea – is highly problematic, as the dilbit-sediment mixture would submerge or sink when battered by waves.

I believe Kinder Morgan knew that is the case, and that it is the underlying reason the Texasbased company sought and obtained a National Energy Board ruling that kept the full details of its emergency plans secret. I believe it is also the underlying reason the National Energy Board refused to consider a National Academy of Sciences study which affirms the highly problematic nature of trying to clean up a dilbit ocean spill when dealing with submerged or sunken oil.

In the meantime, Transport Canada, in its cosy relationship with industry, keeps sitting on its hands by failing to enforce oil pollution regulations which require effective emergency plans

for the containment and disposal of dilbit in the event of an ocean spill.

When the B.C. government, various municipalities, politicians, Indigenous communities, environmentalists and businesses exposed the truth about the unacceptable risk to our west coast environment and economy, Kinder Morgan retreated and sold the pipeline to our federal government.

British Columbians want to see all of us succeed, including our fellow Canadians in Alberta – for the benefit of our whole country. Alberta needs to take fundamental steps, in a coordinated and cooperative strategy, to refine the tar-like, toxic substance it is trying to transport.

In that regard, it is important for the people and governments of Alberta and Canada to realize that the opposition to vastly expanded ocean shipments of dilbit is undaunted and formidable across all segments of B.C. society. And that Trump-style attempts at aggressive intimidation

by Alberta will only serve to galvanize the unwavering resistance on the part of British Columbians.

On the other hand, by adhering to the principle that “quality is job one” in all aspects of energy production, I believe Alberta and the rest of Canada can clean up their act and move progressively towards the economic and environmental solutions that will benefit our entire nation.

Given our ever-deepening environmental crisis, we urgently need all hands on deck in dealing responsibly with cleaner energy solutions. At the very least, basic steps must be taken in the transition towards the urgent necessity for greener, renewable energy.

Pedestrian hit by bus after fight Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

Burnaby RCMP is investigating whether a 33-yearold pedestrian who suffered life-threatening injuries Tuesday afternoon ended up in the path of a transit bus because of an altercation with another man.

Police received a report at about 5:45 p.m. that two men were fighting near the intersection of Hastings Street and Carleton Avenue in Burnaby.

“During this altercation, one of the males entered the roadway and was struck by a transit bus,” stated an RCMP press release. “How the male entered the roadway is still under investigation with a focus on whether it was as a result of the altercation.”

Two men were arrested at the scene, and one, a 62-year-old man, is still in custody. No charges had been laid as of press time.

Police are still working to find out whether the men were known to each other.

Citynow No charges in Burnaby officer-involved shooting Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

A Burnaby RCMP officer who shot a robbery suspect in 2015 will not face charges despite the case having been forwarded to the B.C. Prosecution Service by the province’s police watchdog.

In the early morning hours of March 1, 2015, two Burnaby Mounties were stopped at a traffic light at the intersection of Edmonds Street and Canada Way when they spotted two men in balaclavas and a clerk with his hands up at a 7-Eleven across the intersection, according to a B.C. Prosecution Service report released Friday.

It looked to one of the officers like the man near the door was holding a gun.

As the marked police vehicle approached, the suspects left the store and ran to a minivan in the park-

ing lot.

One of the suspects, who was never apprehended or identified, ran away when the police vehicle drove into the lot, but the other suspect jumped into the van and drove it “forcefully” into the police vehicle.

He then reversed and drove the van “at and past” one of the officers, who was shouting at him to stop and show his hands.

Both officers fired into the van, and the driver was hit before driving past the police vehicle, over a parking curb and sidewalk and down Canada Way. The van was located a short distance away, and the suspect, bleeding heavily, was located nearby with help from a police dog.

He was taken to hospital and has since recovered.

The Independent Investigations Office investigated the shooting and forwarded

a report to the prosecution service a year ago, concluding there were reasonable grounds to believe the officer who shot the suspect had committed offences.

After interviewing the suspect and a number of civilian, police and expert witnesses and examining forensic and video evidence, however, the prosecution service has decided not to pursue charges because the Crown wouldn’t be able to prove any of the shots fired by the officer were excessive.

“Given the circumstances of the suspect’s behaviour (flight from an armed robbery, running from the scene, jumping into a vehicle, failing to respond appropriately to police commands, ramming the police vehicle and driving towards the subject officer as he went around the police vehicle) it would have been

reasonable for the Subject Officer to believe that it was necessary to use potentially

lethal force to protect themselves from death or grievous bodily harm,” stated the

report.

Former addict shares his story of survival Janaya Fuller-Evans

editorial@burnabynow.com

“Life can get good.”

That’s the message Jesse van Dok hopes will dissuade those who are considering turning to drugs.

Van Dok, a recovering drug addict, knows the perils of using drugs and what they can make you do.

“I was a very successful chef; I worked on Saltspring Island at a four-star restaurant there,” he said. “I had a family. And because of my drinking, my family and me got broken up.”

He then went on to use drugs. His drug of choice was intravenous cocaine.

“So I finally lost everything,” he said.

He reached out for help on social media and ended up at a recovery home in Surrey. However, after a month-and-a-half he went with a friend to the Downtown Eastside. He relapsed.

“It lasted for about two days. During the two days, I was in psychosis because of the drug use,” he said, adding he sold everything he had of value on him at the time, to buy more drugs.

“It was full psychosis, which is a scary thing,” van Dok said. “You’re hearing things and seeing things that aren’t there.”

He ended up at the BC Hydro substation in Chinatown.

The voices in his head told him to try to get in.

“I scaled this gate and went inside and started jumping around a transfer station, which is not good,” he said.

A police officer tried to stop van Dok but was unsuccessful.

“I was up on the structure and he yelled to get down,” van Dok said, adding he

didn’t remember what happened next but pieced it together from reports and speaking to the police. “I jumped. I didn’t look and landed on a 230,000-volt transformer.”

There was a loud bang and an explosion, he said.

“Somehow I survived the explosion, but it did light me on fire,” he said. “I climbed down and ran over to the fence where the officer was yelling for me.”

The officer put him out with a fire extinguisher.

“The first thing I really remember is running around screaming, and just the most agonizing pain that I’ve ever felt in my life,” van Dok said.

When the police were finally able to get him out, he ran for the ambulance.

“I was in a chemically induced coma for three days, and two-and-a-half weeks in ICU at Vancouver General Hospital on full life support,” van Dok said.

For the first week-anda-half, the doctors didn’t think he’d live, he said.

His sister, who worked at the hospital, was at his bedside every day, van Dok said.

“I am so lucky to be alive,” he said.

He was in the burn ward for a month-and-a-half, and at GF Strong Rehabilitation Centre for two-and-ahalf months as his arm was welded at his side.

He had two blood transfusions and three skin grafts.

“You would think jumping on 230,000 volts would stop you from doing drugs – no,” he said, adding he was using when he was at GF Strong Rehabilitation Centre.

“I fought it for quite a few years. In the end, the one thing that did save me is a

He’s been clean for nearly a year.

“I feel like an entirely different person,” van Dok said.

He is about to head out to his dream job, working as a chef at a camp near Prince George, he said.

And he’s also in a relationship with a holistic nutritionist.

“I have an amazing lady,” he said.

“I hope people think twice about picking up drugs when they hear my story because it’s not just

ODs that can kill you,” he added.

Van Dok is grateful to the team at the Vancouver General Hospital burn ward, in particular Dr. Anthony Papp.

He’s also thankful for the police, firefighters and paramedics who saved him.

“Our service workers are just amazing,” he said.

CRIME

Man convicted in gang killing gets a break on his parole Sameer Mapara can apply for parole five years early Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

A man serving a life sentence for his part in a gangland killing at a Burnaby car lot will be able to apply for parole five years early thanks to a successful “faint hope” hearing last month.

On Oct. 7, 1998, 26-yearold Vikash Chand was shot seven times in broad daylight as he was changing a licence place on a Mercedes Benz SUV at Sameer Mapara’s up-scale Rags to Riches used car dealership on the corner of Boundary Road and Second Avenue, according to court documents.

Mapara wasn’t there, but in 2001 a jury convicted him of first-degree murder in Chand’s death.

He was charged along with three others – Simon Kwok Chow, George Wasfi and Shane Kelly Shoemak-

er, the actual shooter – all of whom were also convicted of first-degree murder in the slaying.

The driver of the getaway vehicle, Haddi Binahmad, however, signed an immunity agreement and testified Wasfi told him Mapara wanted them to kill Chand, an associate of drug dealer Bindy Johal, who was himself gunned down in a Vancouver nightclub shooting later that year.

Mapara was believed to have business ties to major drug-dealers.

“This particular location has been known – not necessarily the business itself, but associates of that business,” a Burnaby RCMP spokesperson said of Rags to Riches after the shooting.

Crown prosecutors said Chand’s murder was a contract killing worth $40,000.

Mapara got an automatic life-sentence with no chance

of parole for 25 years for his part in the killing, and he’s been in jail since Feb. 6, 2001.

Last month, however, he appeared before a B.C. Supreme Court jury under the so-called “faint-hope clause” to request his parole ineligibility period be shortened. On May 14, the jury agreed to cut it by five years, meaning Mapara will be eligible for parole in less than three years – in 2022 instead of 2027.

The faint-hope clause – Section 745.6 of the Criminal Code – allows prisoners who have been sentenced to life without a chance of parole for more than 15 years to apply to have that ineligibility period shortened once they’ve served 15 years.The law was repealed in 2010, however, and no longer applies to offenders who committed their crimes after Dec. 2, 2011.

He plays violin at Burnaby Hospital to ease the suffering Chris Campbell

ccampbell@burnabynow.com

After Tom Su watched his father die in the palliative care unit at Burnaby Hospital, it would have been easy for him to just walk away from the facility and vow never to come back.

But he didn’t.

Su had spent day after soul-crushing day in the unit caring for his father, who was dying of lung cancer.

During that time, he noticed some of the other patients didn’t have anyone

Telus has a culture that encourages staff to give back

outside of the hospital staff to care for them – or even pay them a visit. Su also saw families suffering, with few if any moments to escape their overwhelming anxiety.

So he decided to do something about it. He picked up his violin – an instrument he had been playing since the age of four – and made arrangements with Burnaby Hospital to come and play for patients and their families.

That one visit has turned into hundreds as Su drops in every Tuesday night.The

classically trained violinist plays everything from the classics to pop songs to movie themes.

He even takes requests.

Su does whatever it takes to ease the suffering. He plays for patients with cancer and people living in long-term care.

Su also plays for people with dementia, and he recalls the impact his music has had.

“One patient started humming the melody,” Su said about that flash of recognition. “A family member was really surprised because that hadn’t happened before.”

Playing the violin has brought a lot of joy to Su’s life, but visiting Burnaby Hospital is not easy. For one thing, Su also plays in that same unit his father spent his last days in. “(Playing there) is actually quite emotional,” Su said.

“The smell, the scenery, it gets to me. It is very difficult for me.”

And yet, he still goes because he sees the difference it can make in a patient’s day. Su even gives up part of his Christmas Day to play for patients.

Su, who is 49 and works for Telus, said the visits combine the three main sections of his life, including his music degree, his many years spent in the hospitality industry, as well as his current job.

Su doesn’t just play mu-

sic, he chats with at least 10 to 15 patients and family members during his visits. Sometimes, people just need someone to listen to them during such a stressful time.

Some weeks, Su is able to go for additional visits thanks to the support of his

employer,Telus, which says its employees have contributed more than one million volunteer hours in the past year.

“Telus has a culture that encourages staff to give back,” Su said. “Telus has been very flexible for me.”

Burnaby student part of team taking optometry care to Africa Cindy Shan is fundraising for a three-week summer trip to Senegal

A Burnaby resident is getting ready to head to Africa to bring vital eye-care services to people who need it.

Cindy Shan is a student at the University of Waterloo School of Optometry and Vision Science and she’s fundraising for a three-week trip to Senegal later this summer.

Shan is part of a team of nine student optometrists from across Canada with the organization known as Volunteer Optometric Ser-

vices to Humanity – the organization leads annual trips to Senegal.

“We are embarking on a three-week journey to various cities and towns in Senegal, packing our own equipment and supplies,” Shan said.

“During our time there, we provide eye exams and give the appropriate glasses and/or eye drops if needed,” Shan said. “We also provide eligible patients with cataract surgeries, an eye condi-

tion that many individuals in developed countries are able to get treated easily. A simple surgery like this one can have a huge impact.”

Each day, the group looks at their files and decides on the best candidates for cataract surgery, depending on the family situation, age and wellbeing of the patient.

“Then, throughout the year, we are continuously communicating with individuals in the communities as well as their local techni-

cian to ensure that cataract surgeries are performed,” Shan said.

This year-round commitment is the kind of sustainable project that Shan believes is important.

Organizers are also looking for optometrists or ophthalmologists to join them on the trip so if anyone is interested – or if you want to make a donation – they can contact senegalwaterloo@ gmail.com.

‘I feel like I’m ready to take on the world’ B.C. Provincial School for the Deaf grad made history by capturing the Female Athlete of theYear Award for her multiple sport endeavours Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

Watching 17-year-old Le Yi Deng grin and sign enthusiastically about her busy final year at the B.C. Provincial School for the Deaf and all her future plans, it feels all wrong to steer the interview around to Usher’s Syndrome – a disease that is slowly robbing her of her sight.

But I do, and Deng tells me about a day in Grade 4 when her mom picked her up from school and took her to the doctor for a check-up.

It was the day she found out she was losing her vision.

“That was really sad news for me,” she says through an ASL interpreter. “I didn’t know what that meant for me in the future, how involved I was going to be and what I wanted to do.”

Acceptance is an ongoing

struggle, she says, but it has come with a corresponding determination: “I’m still trying to achieve what I can,” she says.

This year that attitude made history, when Deng became the first BCSD student to earn the Female Athlete of theYear Award at the joint Burnaby South Secondary-B.C. Provincial School for the Deaf grad ceremony.

Deng didn’t know she was being given the award (along with co-winner Stephanie Zaborniak) until she was ready to walk onto the stage.

“It felt like fire,” Deng says. “It was amazing.”

She has played numerous sports since getting her fateful diagnosis in Grade 4, but, starting in Grade 11, she noticed few BCSD students were getting involved in the many different sports available at Burnaby South

Secondary, which houses the provincial deaf school.

She decided to lead by example and try to get the word out.

It hasn’t always been easy, she says, with some coaches thinking she wouldn’t be

I wanted to inspire people regardless of barriers and things that they’re going through

able to do things the rest of the team could.

Undeterred, she got involved in every sport she could in her last year of high school this year: cross-coun-

try, volleyball, basketball, wrestling, track and field, ultimate Frisbee and dance.

“I really wanted to feel a sense of pride and be able to just show that deaf people can do it,” she says, “and I wanted to inspire people regardless of barriers and things that they’re going through. It doesn’t matter what conditions you have or syndromes. It doesn’t matter.The point is that you should try your best. My goal was really to inspire people and not so much just be in sports but to inspire people around me.”

It’s an attitude she intends to take with her as she starts at Vancouver Community College next year in the hopes of getting into UBC after that and eventually becoming a lawyer.

“I feel ready,” she says. “I feel like I’m ready to take on the world.”

Not yet identified in B.C., the disease continues to spread inWashington State, less than 200 kilometres from our border. It has resulted in three Canadian species being listed as endangered, including the little brown bat that will use buildings and bat houses to raise their pup in the summer.

The BC Community Bat Program needs your help to monitor the bat population in Burnaby.

Contact Danielle Dagenais, regional coordinator, to get information on how to volunteer or count the bat colony on your property.

Anyone can be a citizen scientist.Volunteers are needed over the next three weeks and again starting mid-July to help collect important data.

In 2018, the count collected baseline data on bat populations at 214 sites across the province, and hope to find more sites for 2019.

“This year, there are 19 roosts stretching from Bowen Island to Coquitlam that need monitoring.Volunteers are key to this program,” said Dagenais. “The count data helps bat biologists understand bat distribution and normal variation in col-

Communitynow They’re helping former foster kids go to school BC Technology for Learning Society refurbishes donated computers for former foster children Computers refurbished by a Burnaby non-profit are proving a boon to youth who’ve aged out of government care and are now going to university.

BC Technology for Learning Society (BC Tech), which operates the Computers for Schools program in B.C., collects donated computers, laptops and other tech.

It hires and trains youth to fix them up and then distributes the equipment to B.C. schools, libraries, notfor-profit organizations and Indigenous communities.

Among the recipients this year were former foster kids now attending Nanaimo’s Vancouver Island University, a school that led the way in 2013 when it became the first post-secondary institution in B.C. to introduce tuition waivers for people who’d aged out of govern-

ment care.

Since then, the B.C. government has launched a program to waive tuition provincewide for former kids in care.

“That’s great.The kids are able to go to school,” said BC Tech executive director Mary-Em Waddington, “but then they don’t have the technology to do their homework or to do their research.”

Refurbished computers from BC Tech are there to fill that gap, she said.

How much they are needed was highlighted in a bag of thank you notes BC Tech got earlier this year.

“I’m a 21-year-old single mother of two,” stated one.

“I can’t thank you enough for the computer you have donated to me and my family.This computer is such a big help as my older daughter broke my laptop and I can’t afford to fix it.You guys really took a big burden off my back.”

Waddington said she passed the notes out to her technicians.

“I said, ‘You know that time when you started, and I said your job was going to suck when you were like cleaning all these keyboards and taking all the coffee stains and muffin crumbs out, but we wanted to make it really nice for somebody’s first new computer? This is why.’ And they were just so happy to get those cards,” Waddington said.

During the 2019 fiscal year, about $1.4 million worth of computer equipment was donated to BC Tech.

The Government of Canada is the largest Computers for Schools donor. Other major donors include TELUS, Capilano University, Coast Capital Savings, Metro Vancouver, Doctors of BC, the City of Burnaby, University of British Columbia, ActiveCo and Langara College.

Sharing their skills: Students from Lower Mainland post-secondary schools refurbish donated computers at the BC Technology for Learning Society office in Burnaby. PHOTO CORNELIA NAYLOR

The City of Burnaby donated 257 computers and laptops worth about $42,000 this past year.

But it isn’t just big organizations that can donate, according to Waddington. Anyone can bring in their old computer

The equipment that can’t be refurbished is put into a recycling stream.

“So, we’re a nice one-stop shop,”Waddington said.

Since 1993, BC Tech has shipped out 170,000 refurbished computers through the Computers for Schools

program.

BC Tech is located at 206-6741 Cariboo Rd. For more information, call 604294-6886 or visit www. reusetechbc.ca.

Why is fluency in learning the sounds, letters and math facts important?

Automatic word reading and fluent math fact retrieval is evidence that new pathways have been established for reading and math.

When a child sees print and transforms it MAUREEN MACKINNON- into understanding a story, we know that MCQUARRIE, PH.D. many physiological changes to the brain have occurred. When automatic retrieval of math facts is established, students access facts via direct retrieval from long-term memory.

DIGNITY MEMORIAL When I read this letter that my client shared with me, I am touched and impressed.

I am reassured that what we do every day is valuable and meaningful... Prearrangement is not about death. It is all about love, caring, protection for our loved ones.

“Dearest dad, This is the first year without you at Father’s day. When everyone is preparing their father’s day dinner and gifts, I feel heartache in my heart. As I remember all our precious moments together, tears come out from my eyes quietly. Dad, I miss you!

I can’t express how much you love your family. Your gentleness, patience, your encouragement while I was suffering in the dark, you care and protect us. You are my role model, my life coach. You always give us surprise!

Dad, I couldn’t believe you had even planned your own final arrangement, chose your resting place and paid for your own funeral service! You had taken away all our financial burden and stress. I could not imagine what would have happened if nothing was arranged in advance!! You gave us very clear guidelines of your wish so we could follow and honor you. We know we did the right things!

Dad, thank you for everything you did to us, I know you are now resting in peace.

Love you forever & forever!

Your beloved daughter, Lee “ We can protect our family today by taking good care of ourselves, physically and mentally. We can help reduce the heartache of making tough decisions at a time when our family members are overwhelmed and grieving. Take these 4 simple steps: REFLECT on what is the most important in our life; RECORD our wishes to make sure our loved ones know exactly what we want; SECURE our decisions financially so that we are not leaving the burden on them; SHARE everything we arranged so they know all the decisions have been made to protect them.

ASK A COIN & STAMP SPECIALIST

Q A

Are certain banknote denominations being demonetized in Canada?

In March 2018 I wrote a column about the Canadian Government having a section in the new budget regarding Canadian banknotes. It was regarding JIM RICHARDSON making certain banknote denominations no longer legal tender. This has now happened. If you go onto the Bank of Canada website www.bankofcanada.ca you will see that the $1, $2, $25, $500.00 and $1,000.00 are no longer legal tender. This means you are unable to spend them as money. You are still able to deposit them into your bank account for now. With how deep in debt Canada is, this ability to deposit them may be short lived. In the next year Netherlands, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland will demonetize most, if not all, of their banknotes. Anyone holding them after the short time period will be out of luck and money.

Gold just hit a 9 year high at $1790.00 in Canadian dollars. Who knows how much higher it will go.

ASK A MORTGAGE BROKER

Q A

How can I get a mortgage if I bought pre-sale?

Many buyers who bought presale 2-3 years ago are having difficulties to get a mortgage from the bank upon completion of the property with all the changes in mortgage policies. One of HOWARD LOUIE the options is to use private lenders.

Manager, Mortgage Broker Buyers usually put 20% down payment on new construction. With market value increased over the past 2-3 years, buyers should have at least 35% equity in the property based on appraisal value. These lenders will lend based on the appraisal value and not on the purchase price.

This will give buyers extra equity so they will not have to come up with more money for completion. This is a short term solution for buyers to complete the purchase on time. This will give the buyer some options to either sell the property or refinance once the market improves.

Artsnow Women’s work in focus in new Burnaby Art Gallery exhibition Six years ago, the Burnaby Art Gallery launched a new mission: to significantly enhance its collection of works created by women.

You’ll get to see the results of that effort in a new show at the gallery.Women’s Work: New Acquisitions opens with a special reception tonight (Thursday, June 20) and runs from Friday, June 21 to Sunday, Aug. 25.

Back in 2013, was discovered that within the gallery’s collection of more than 5,000 works of art, only 22 per cent were created by women.

“Although a statistic such as this is common amongst collecting institutions, it was nevertheless identified as troubling,” says a writeup from the gallery.

The gallery has since been targeting its collections and worked to increase that number; today, in 2019, the number has risen to 25 per cent.

An opening reception is set for Thursday, June 20 at 7 p.m.

On Sunday, June 23 at 2 p.m., director-curator Ellen van Eijnsbergen will lead a tour of the exhibition.

The Burnaby Art Gallery is at 6344 Deer Lake Ave. It’s open Tuesday to Friday from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., and Saturday and Sun-

City now Here’s why we need to talk more openly about miscarriage Mommy’s

GROUNDED Bianca Bujan

When I ran into an old friend the other day, she asked me how old my youngest child was now.When I told her, she seemed confused and then said, “Oh sorry, I thought she was the same age as my youngest, but I forgot that you miscarried that pregnancy.”

At first, the reminder hit me like a slap in the face.

For years, it had felt as though I would never forget the moment when I went for my 16-week ultrasound with my third pregnancy, only to be told that there was no heartbeat.

Until only a few months ago, one of my children would casually mention “the baby that died in my belly” in conversation, causing me to smile back at them, calmly, while choking back tears.

Every once in a while, I would come across a post on social media that referenced a “rainbow baby” (baby born after a miscarriage), and my heart would break a little, remembering the baby that I had carried, whose face I never got to see, and how difficult it had been for me to accept my following pregnancy - worried that I might lose a baby again.

At that moment, when my friend brought up my pregnancy loss, I realized that the pain, heartbreak and incredible sense of loss that I had once felt so deeply, had actually diminished.

I had stopped mourning the loss of the baby who hadn’t made it past four months. I had stopped waking up in the middle of the night in a cold sweat, after reliving that dreadful day at the ultrasound appointment in a dream. I felt a bit relieved.

But my shock when hearing those words uttered

aloud was also an important reminder – a reminder that we need to talk openly about miscarriage. Both women and men who have experienced pregnancy loss.

On average, 20 to 25 per cent of pregnancies end in miscarriage, yet we rarely hear about it.

When I found out about my pregnancy loss, I didn’t just feel devastated, I felt ashamed. I had told everyone about the pregnancy. I had chosen names.

I hadn’t been aware of the stats. I hadn’t known about the physical pain, the surgery that it would require, or the lasting scars – both physically and emotionally that I would be left with after the loss. I also didn’t know how many people were able to have healthy pregnancies following a miscarriage.

I wrote openly about my experience only a few days after it happened. It was my way to grieve. I wanted to share my story with others

to let them know that they were not alone, and I wanted to remember how I had felt in that moment.

I thought it was important to not only document my feelings, but to share them with others. And the best thing that came out of sharing my story was the many readers – friends, family members, acquaintances, co-workers, strangers – who had been through the same thing. Learning that it was common, that I wasn’t alone in my pain, helped me to heal in a very big way.

It seems taboo to talk about pregnancy loss, but the more we share openly, the more we can possibly help others to do the same.

And perhaps they, too, will one day heal.

Artsnow Symphony in the Park returns The Vancouver Symphony Orchestra is returning to Deer Lake Park this summer for its popular free outdoor concert.

The 32nd annual edition of Symphony in the Park is on Sunday, June 30.

“I am delighted to conduct the program at Deer Lake Park this summer,” said VSO conductor Otto Tausk in a press release.

“This concert tradition is something the VSO looks forward to each year, and any opportunity to connect the symphony with the community is one that we are thrilled to embrace. Our concert this year features some fantastic pieces that we look forward to performing for the community.”

Attendees will be able to hear such popular classics as selections from Leonard Bernstein’s West Side Story, Ravel’s Bolero, the overture to Tchaikovsky’s Romeo and Juliet, Mussorgsky’s Night on Bald Mountain, the prelude to Act III of Wagner’s Lohengrin, and themes from John Williams’ E.T. Symphony in the Park

Businessnow Businesses feeling the weight of taxes and bills Health tax, property taxes and minimum wage hikes are making life difficult for Burnaby business owners Paul Holden

BURNABY BOARD OF TRADE

There has been a lot of talk of straw and camels’ backs this month as Burnaby businesses get hit with a wave of taxes and bills from government during the past few weeks.

On May 15, the deadline arrived for registering for the new Employer Health Tax.This new tax was created under the auspices of replacing Medical Services Plan premiums on individuals.

However, if that is truly the case, then the business community struggles to understand why the tax will bring in over half-a-billiondollars more than is needed to replace the MSP each and every year. And that’s not to even mention the double-dip this year when businesses are required to pay both the new Employer Health Tax and the old MSP premiums for their employees.

The Employer Health Tax is a hit to the bottom lines of local businesses both big and small. Just in the past week, my colleagues and I have heard from a small, family business which owes $2,800 in new taxes this

year, and a large employer that will face a tax bill in the tens of thousands of dollars, leaving less money to invest in new staff, skills training or equipment.

Property tax bills have also started hitting the mailboxes and inboxes of Burnaby businesses these past weeks, and some will undoubtedly be in for a shock.

In my mind, no local business should be pushed to move or forced to close because of a tax bill.

As I’ve written here before, this is largely because BC Assessment values properties based on their “highest and best use” and not what they are currently used for.

Under the current system, the value of a property can skyrocket if BC Assessment believes it could be redeveloped into a condo tower or some other project, regardless whether the ac-

tual use of the property has changed.These high assessments then cause problems for local businesses when property taxes are calculated at the local level, leading some to face incredibly high tax bills.

Imagine the frustration of a local business having to pay tax based not on their actual business, but on a potential – or you could say imaginary – redevelopment.

Again, just in the past few weeks I’ve met with one business owner who is awaiting a property tax bill he expects to be in the hundreds of thousands of dollars and which may force the business to relocate. In my mind, no local business should be pushed to move or forced to close because of a tax bill.

Lastly, on June 1, the minimum wage was increased by $1.20 to $13.85 per hour, adding yet another increased cost.

Few Burnaby businesses begrudge the minimum wage getting to $15 per hour over time.

Our members, when surveyed, were in favour of it.

But they are concerned with the knock-on effects to the rest of the wages along the pay scale.

When the minimum wage is increased quickly, as it

has been recently, businesses face pressure to make increases to the rest of the wage scale, inflating labour costs across the board and impacting even those businesses that don’t actually pay the minimum wage.

This is a part of the minimum wage conversation I

can create a real headwind for business success.

After all, it is the last straw that breaks the camel’s back.

Wildcats runner wins with a splash Burnaby Goudron takes steeplechase LACROSSE

solves hot netminder

with personal best time Dan Olson

dolson@burnabynow.com

There’s something about track and field that gets Burnaby Central’s Ryan Goudron going.

As competitive as his running events are, it’s truly him against the clock. Finishing ahead of the other runners is just part of the program.

The 16-year-old runner beat both the clock and a slew of opponents at last week’s B.C. High School track and field championships in Kelowna, collecting a pair of gold and twin silver as part of a strong Wildcats performance.

By winning the junior boys 1500-metre steeplechase, Goudron was able to leap past some rivals who, in the past, had posted quicker times.

“I went in hoping to win, but I knew there were faster guys in the race, who had raced quicker races,” said Goudron, referring to Earl Marriott’s Micah Logie and Walnut Grove’s Jack Hardy.

Even though he had finished ahead of Hardy in previous events elsewhere, he wasn’t taking anything for granted in the first-day event.

“I started on the outside, so I had to merge right into the group and felt a little boxed in at first,” he recalled. “At about the 500m-mark it was down to just me and (Logie).”

He’d win the race by eight seconds with a time of 4:32.51. A big part of that time was in his work on the steeplechase, which tends to be where a lot of runners hit the water hard.

“In the water, Ryan’s form was spectacular as he landed in the water with only one foot … and maintained his forward momentum.

He never got his right foot wet at all,” Burnaby Central coach Randy Kamiya said. “That’s not as important as the fact that he never lost momentum and his aggressive running strategy helped win the race.”

He’d go on to pick up silver in both the 400m and 800m events, again finishing with personal best times.

“I ran a pretty weak first half (in the 800m) but made up so much ground down the stretch,” said Goudron.

On the final day, he ran the decisive leg as part of the Wildcats’ junior boys 4x400m relay team.The quartet of Sebastyan Szymanski, Marcus Taylor, Gerard Natavio and Gourdron overcame a deficit to finish first. Goudron took the baton trailing by 15m but, by the midpoint of his 400m, he had closed the gap and began to pull away, winning by almost 10m.

The finish time, 3:32.29, one second faster than their main opponent, was a team personal best.

Racing in provincials has always been a big thing for Goudron, who as a Grade 8 finished third in both the 1500m and 3000m but is now gearing towards mid-distance events.

Right now, he is enjoying the 800m distance.

“It’s really a fast race but there’s still so much chance for change,” he noted. “You can have a slow start but make up for it. … This is my first year with the 400m and I have done no training out of the blocks. It’s definitely an area where I can improve.”

A member of the Royal City Track and Field Club, Goudron has already taken his track

shows to some heady meets – last year at the LegionYouth club championships in Brandon, Man., and this past week to Portland, Ore., where he won the 2000m steeplechase against a crowd of American high schoolers.

The attraction to track is the feeling of control, he said, and that the race is an athlete against his own goals.

“You just have to go for the gun, there’s no time to rest,” said Goudron. “It’s one of the rawest sports you have – it’s physical ability and mental ability, but it’s you racing the clock to see who’s best.”

The other major medal winners for Burnaby schools were also in the junior circuit, as Burnaby Mountain’s Kiran Wanniarachchi finished second in the high jump, clearing 1.85m, while teammate Brandon Hsu posted the third-best time in the 400m. On the girls side, Burnaby South’s Taya Batiste picked up silver in the junior girls’ 100m dash with a time of 12.35 seconds, behind only Emma Cannan of Kelowna’s 12.28 finish.

Burnaby Mountain’s Isabella Brunoro completed the junior girls 1500m steeplechase with a flourish, finishing second with a time of 5:10.64, trailing fellow Royal City club member and St.Thomas More runner Kate Stewart Barnet. Brunoro also scooped up silver in the 3000m event, posting a 10:35.20 time, just seven-tenths of a second out of first.

It was bound to come, but the Burnaby Lakers made sure it was just one-and-done.

The Western Lacrosse Association club responded after suffering their first loss of the year with a 10-9 overtime victory over the Coquitlam Adanacs on Saturday.

Just 24 hours separated that and the 8-3 setback, at home, to the defending league champion Maple Ridge Burrards, but it could just as easily been a two-game-losing streak without the heroics of Tyler Digby.

The veteran stickman buried the team’s second chance in the sudden-death overtime, just as a powerplay expired at the two-minute mark of the five-minute frame.

It came against a standout performance from Adanacs’ netminder Christian Del Bianco, who faced 63 shots on the night.

“It was good to get back on the floor, because we were disappointed with our performance (Friday),” captain Dane Stevens said. “It’s tough to play back-to-back, but we were ready to redeem ourselves and get the two points.

“It wasn’t pretty but a win’s a win. Our whole thing was to keep working hard.”

Like the contest against Maple Ridge, Burnaby trailed 2-0 in the early going, but drew even by the end of the period.The two teams spent most of the middle frame trading the lead, but rookie Brodie Gillespie and Pearson Willis put the Lakers up 9-8 with eight minutes left in the third.

With six minutes left, the Adanacs’ Matt Delmonico beat Eric Penney to force overtime – the first time since the WLA went to a three-onthree, sudden death format.

Robert Church counted four goals, having fired 22 shots on net, while Digby and Stevens finished with a goal and two helpers each.

A day earlier, Maple Ridge silenced Burnaby’s powerplay and erased a 3-2 deficit with six unanswered goals to hand the Lakers their first loss of the season.

On Friday, Burnaby hosts Coquitlam, 7:30 p.m. at the Copeland Sports Complex.

STM shines at BCs

The St.Thomas More Knights made the most of their road trip to Kelowna last week, returning with a more banners for the wall.

The school finished the B.C. High School track and field championships as the AA aggregate champs, after claiming both the senior girls and junior girls crowns.

Kate Stewart Barnett set the tone on the first event upon the team’s arrival, winning the junior girls 1500-metre steeplechase with a new best time of 4:53.69.

Her win in the heptathlon a week earlier provided a good clue as to how ready she was for the championship. After topping the 800m event in South Sur-

rey with a time that would have been golden in Kelowna, the coaches chose to enter her in the 400m at the B.C.s, to manage her workload. She finished second in the 400m race.

She joined Alicia Bremer, Sophia Wong and Milena Kalisch to take silver in the 4x400m relay.

Senior throwers Shiloh Corrales-Nelson and Michelle Dadson, meanwhile nailed two medals each.

Corrales-Nelson netted silver in both the hammer throw, with a throw of 47.95m, and shotput (12.41m). Dadson, a Grade 11, took silver in the discus with a personal best throw of 38.49m, and bronze in shotput (12.05m).

Looking for a new home? Start here.

Real estate takes a break as B.C. vacation home sales slow Real estate activity seems to be taking a much-needed vacation, with recreational property sales declining across British Columbia, according to a report published June 6 by national brokerage Royal LePage.

Total sales of homes in the B.C. recreational markets surveyed fell by 22.5 per cent year over year, and declined on an annual basis in all of the markets.

The seven markets studied were North Okanagan, Central Okanagan, 100 Mile House, Comox Valley, Denman Island, Gulf Islands, Mount Washington, Whistler and the Sunshine Coast.

Royal LePage reported that the aggregate price of a detached home in those areas was relatively flat, up 0.4 per cent – but that this is skewed upwards by a decline in sales of lower-priced homes.

However, some areas saw considerable year-overyear price increases, showing there are pockets where the very limited number of homes for sale is keeping prices high.

“While demand has softened across the recreational property market, low inventory has kept prices stable,” said Gregg Hart, broker and owner of Royal LePage in the Comox Valley. “Mt. Washington had a good snow year and sales on the mountain were well ahead of last year. The inventory on both Denman and Hornby Island is very low, which is pushing prices higher just as the selling season gets going.”

Royal LePage said that the most popular region for buyers in British Columbia is the central Okanagan region, where the median price for a single-family home fell three per cent to $640,000 compared with last year.

All but one of the seven recreational markets is expected to see prices hold steady or increase in 2020, with the exception of the Gulf Islands, predicted to decline three per cent.

INTERRELATED MARKETS In a recent report, Bryan Yu, deputy chief economist of Central 1 Credit Union, told Glacier Me-

Yu wrote in his report, “Weak activity in Metro Vancouver is contributing to fewer recreational and retirement home purchases in other markets, as homeowners face lower price/equity and difficulty selling their properties. Sluggishness in Alberta’s economy is likely curtailing recreational sales in the interior, with the speculation tax negatively impacting recreational purchases and pushing sales out of the larger market and into smaller rural communities.”

Born in occupied Krakow, Poland during the turbulent end of World War II, immigrated to Canada growing up in Vancouver’s westside, educated at UBC, devoted to best friend, partner and wife, Carol; Paul was taken away peacefully, but far too soon, after a fierce and courageous battle from complications following a stroke.

A consummate host, Paul enjoyed nothing more than being surrounded by good friends in complex conversation over a table topped with great food and significant wine. A love of epicurean exploration found him equally at home in Tuscany, the Mosel and Napa to name just a few favourites. With the sun shining nothing bested an alfresco lunch for Paul, holding court with the many people in his life on the ‘perfect patio’ of his beloved Hart House in Burnaby.

Paul will be lovingly remembered by his wife Carol, son David, brothers Fred (Patti), Ted (Sue), nephew Tyler (Christina) and nieces Alexandra (Francis) and Samantha.

The family would like to extend their heartfelt appreciation to the wonderful and caring staff of North Shore Hospice.

A Celebration of Paul’s Life will be held on Sunday, June 23, 2019 between 2:00 and 4:00 p.m. at Hart House Restaurant on Deer Lake, Burnaby.

Memorial donations in memory of Paul, may be made to your local SPCA.

Dad gave to all he touched in life a strong encouragement to be an individual, believe in what you want to accomplish by volunteering, as a strong spokesperson, in roles of leadership, in causes he believed in; eg. BCGEU, Longshoremen’s Union, NDP Government, and Vancouver’s Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Classical Chinese Gardens, Fall Prevention Group and many other Senior’s Initiatives. The City of Burnaby recognized his thousands of volunteer hours in his community with the Citizen of the Year Award.

Dad is survived by his older sister Elise, daughters; Wendy, Marvene, stepdaughters: Lynne, Elaine, sons: Albert, Jerome, 23 grandchildren, 34 greatgrandchildren, 7 great-great-grandchildren.

Pre-deceased by his amazing spouse, Marjorie Young; daughters: Jauncey, Maribet, Dwight, son: Maurice, and 3 grandchildren.

No service by request. In his honour, please send donations in his name to a favourite charity. https://www.dignitymemorial.com/obituaries/north -vancouver-bc/wendell-ratcliffe-8725605
