Singh vows to keep fighting Trans Mountain Kelvin Gawley
kgawley@burnabynow.com
The morning after Canada’s 43rd federal election, Jagmeet Singh vowed to keep fighting the Trans Mountain expansion project. But the NDP leader and Burnaby South MP acknowledged he’ll be returning to a Parliament with a majority of fellow MPs representing the two largest
parties – Liberal and Conservative – which support the twinning of the pipeline from Edmonton to Burnaby. “I have been opposed to Trans Mountain. I will continue to be opposed to it, and I want real action on fighting the climate crisis,” he said. Singh’s New Democrats will return to Ottawa with 24 elected members.The Liberals won 157 seats, fol-

lowed by 121 Conservatives, 32 Bloc Québécois, three Greens and independent (and former Liberal cabinet minister) Jody Wilson-Raybould. Thanks to the Liberals falling short of a 170-seat majority, the NDP could wield newfound power in Parliament. Asked whether he would pursue a coalition government with the Liberals or another arrangment to sup-
port Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government, Singh said he didn’t want to negotiate in the media. “Everything’s on the table ...We’re not ruling out anything,” he said. While he vowed to continue fighting for his party’s policy goals on pharmacare, housing, climate change, electoral reform and more, Singh acknowledged Canadians did not elect a New Democratic government.

“Canadians have made that choice,” he said. “I respect that choice.” Singh held onto his Burnaby South seat by a slimmer margin than in the Feb. 25 byelection, which saw him win by more than 12 percentage points. By the end of the night, however, he remained six percentage points and more than 2,800 votes ahead of his Conservative challenger, Jay Shin. Burnaby stands to ben-

City ELECTIONS
Beech emerges victorious after close battle Dustin Godfrey
dgodfrey@burnabynow.com
A moment of hesitation preceded an uproar of cheers and a shower of praise for Terry Beech as the Liberal incumbent, in Burnaby’s tightest race, reclaimed his seat in Parliament Monday night. Throughout the night, the vote counts had been just close enough that, even with major outlets declaring him the victor, he was hesitant to claim victory for himself until the official decision was in. And because of that close race, Beech said his big takeaway is that he needs to work harder. “I think I have to find some ways to better communicate with my constituents,” Beech told reporters in his victory speech. “Less than 50 per cent of the population voted for me. I want to go out and learn what kind of governance that 50 per cent is looking for and serve their needs.” Election night this year was a longer one than in 2015, as Beech’s party dropped to minority status. The newly re-elected MP for Burnaby North-Seymour didn’t emerge for his victory speech until just before 10 p.m., shortly before he was officially declared the winner over star NDP candidate Svend Robinson. When the first results came in, they were met with quiet approval from Beech supporters. But each time the TV screen showed Burnaby North-Seymour’s results, the cheers grew a little bit louder, more confident, until the room erupted in cheers when Beech returned to the event with his wife. In his speech, he acknowledged one of the biggest issues in the riding was the contentious Trans Mountain pipeline, which has its terminal in North Burnaby. “I’ll say this:There are people on my campaign team that want to see the Trans Mountain pipeline be built; there’s people on my campaign team that don’t want to see the Trans Mountain pipeline be built,” Beech said. “My number 1 priority is making sure that my community has great representation.” Beech also offered some warm words for Robinson, saying the veteran former politician gave him advice

on how to work as a constituency advocate when Beech first won in 2015. Across town, in the NDP’s Burnaby election event, Robinson said it was “a disappointing night – but the voters have spoken, and I respect that.” The unsuccessful comeback candidate said he hopes the elected NDP MPs will press hard for the issues they campaigned on. “For me, from this com-
munity, I’m hoping that one of those key issues will in fact be the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion and that we will be very clear that there will be no support for a Liberal government that’s prepared to push this pipeline expansion project through.” Robinson said Monday’s defeat won’t silence him. “I will continue to speak out. I may not be a member of Parliament, but I will
continue to speak out on the issues of climate crisis and inequality,” he said. From the get-go, Monday night, Beech remained consistently ahead of Robinson, his primary opponent, but that lead fluctuated throughout the evening. At one point, his lead was a strong 10 percentage points, while at other times, it was closer to its final result, a difference of around three points. Ultimately,
Beech took in 35.5 per cent of the vote, compared to Robinson’s 32.3 per cent. Heather Leung, a Conservative on the ticket but running without the support of the party, managed to hold onto 20 per cent of the vote, a surprise to some after the Conservatives ejected her from the party over past homophobic statements. A NOW photographer stopped by Leung’s cam-
paign office Monday night, where silhouettes were seen through the window crowded around a TV, but no one answered a knock on the door. In Beech’s election event, the mood was positive throughout the night, and it only gained more steam as the night pressed on. Supporters – who came to the event from both the Seymour side of the riding and the North Burnaby side – found comfort in the early leads of both the Liberals and their own candidate in a hotly contested election and an equally divided riding. The rising NDP popularity in the polls in particular threatened Beech’s re-election efforts, with Robinson the forecasted winner by pundits for much of the previous week. But in recent weeks, what was a tight race became even more unpredictable after Leung was fired by the Conservatives. Meanwhile, Green candidate Amita Kuttner, whose predecessor Lynne Quarmby raised just over five per cent of the vote in 2015, managed nearly 10 per cent support Monday night, which likely pulled mostly from the local NDP vote. Between an apparent vote split to the left of Beech and Leung’s stumble to the right, the riding landed in the middle. –With additional reporting by Kelvin Gawley

City won’t let hookah lounge reopen Kelvin Gawley
kgawley@burnabynow.com
A Burnaby hookah lounge that has been the subject of dozens of noise complaints won’t be able to legally reopen its doors. Pure Hookah Lounge appealed the cancellation of its business licence to Burnaby city council, but the mayor and councillors unanimously denied the request at a special meeting on Oct. 16 The lounge opened on Hastings Street in 2017. The complaints began to ramp up the next year, according to the city. More than half-a-dozen of Pure’s neighbours attended the meeting, hoping council would uphold the decision of its chief licence inspector, Dan Layng, who cancelled the lounge’s business licence in July. Since April 2018, the city and Burnaby RCMP have collectively received 119 complaints or calls for service relating to the business, according to a report Layng
presented to council. Between Dec. 9, 2018 and March 13, 2019, the RCMP was called to Pure 20 times, according to the report. During the same three-month period, Layng says, the cops were called to the city’s seven other hookah lounges a total of seven times. In April 2019, “ongoing noise complaints” led the city to impose new operating hours requiring it to close by 11 p.m. – but the complaints kept rolling in, indicating the business was flouting the rules and eventually leading Layng to cancel its business licence altogether. According to Layng, Pure was operating under a restaurant licence but was issued several liquor special event permits from the province, which are “not intended to be a replacement for permanent food-primary or liquor-primary liquor licences.” Dean Davison, a lawyer representing the business
owners, argued there was no evidence his clients had violated Burnaby’s noise bylaw. He said the city didn’t have any proof the lounge had ever exceeded the maximum allowable decibel level. Davison suggested the “inordinate number of complaints” had come from a small handful of disgruntled neighbours. “I think it’s not unreasonable or unlikely that the individuals complaining (don’t) want anything in that area.That’s not how it works. It’s licensed with a proper licence. It’s unfortunate but sometimes you have to wear earplugs, you have to close the window, you have to do some things to work and live in cities,” he said. “They just want you to shut down this lounge so they can get a better sleep, and that’s not unreasonable – but that’s not the city’s duty.” Davison said the disagreement is a civil matter and the complainants are wel-

come to sue the lounge’s owner or landlord – but then said they would likely lose such a court challenge. Jaison Jose, identified by the city as the brother of company director Manbir Singh, told council the city was applying its bylaws unequally. “Tomorrow, if I call up and say, ‘Hey, I’m not happy with Cactus Club operating,’ are you going to shut down all the Cactus Clubs in Burnaby?” he said. After hearing the submissions, council went into a closed meeting to get legal advice.When members reemerged, city staff explained that the business licence had been revoked based on a different section of the bylaw than the one with specific decibel limits. “We’re not happy,” Davison told the NOW following the meeting. He said the owners are now seriously considering seeking a judicial review of the decision.

Opinion OUR VIEW
A new federal voting system could energize the masses A simple look at some numbers reveals a lot about the 2019 federal election and where our country should be headed. The voter turnout in Canada was a measly 66 per cent – a number likely to drop because it doesn’t include those who register on election day.Voter turnout was even worse in the local ridings: 63 per cent for Burnaby North-Seymour, 60 per cent for New Westminster-Burnaby and a pathetic 56 per cent in
Burnaby South, despite the candidacy of NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh. So, why do so few Canadians vote? Well, some other numbers might shed light on this. The Bloc Québécois captured 32 seats with 7.7 per cent of the vote, while the NDP secured just 24 seats with nearly 16 per cent of the vote.The Greens had nearly the same number of votes as the Bloc, but got just three seats. It’s no wonder people
don’t want to vote when the first-past-the-post system is so unfair. Hopefully, with the Liberals only having minority status, the NDP and Greens can force a change in how we vote. After all, our prime minister previously promised this – in 2015. TRANSIT NUMBERS While we’re looking at data, some numbers show that it takes much longer to travel by bus in Metro Vancouver today than it did five
years ago. According to a TransLink report released Monday, 80 per cent of Metro Vancouver bus routes are slower than they were half a decade ago, largely due to increased traffic congestion on the roads and a “lack of sufficient bus priority.” The report notes that for transit riders, this means longer ride times and longer waits, as well as more overcrowding, all of which reduces the “attractiveness” of commuting by transit.
In 2018, we saw record-breaking ridership, with 437.4 million boardings. And over the last three years, total transit ridership has increased by 17 per cent and total bus ridership by 14 per cent. The transit authority estimates road delays are costing the company more than $75 million per year, 12 per cent of Coast Mountain Bus Company’s total operating costs. Operator breaks and extra time needed to ensure on-
time departures increased operating costs by another 16 per cent. As bus travel times become more irregular, “recovery time” must be increased, said the report. The report identifies strategies to help curb road congestion and improve transit times, most of which would be up to municipalities or the provincial government to implement. We hope these politicians, as well as the feds, will look at these numbers and do what’s needed.
MY VIEW KEITH BALDREY
Horgan shows off his cuddly side I have seen many things around the B.C. legislature during the 30 plus years I’ve been stationed there covering B.C. politics, but I’ve never been partly responsible for kicking a cabinet committee out of the historic cabinet chamber. Until last week, that is. And my partner in crime was none other than Premier John Horgan. I am often asked by teachers if I can spare some time to talk to their students when they visit the legislature (about a dozen classes a week take a tour of the place and they come from all over the province). I try to always oblige and if there is time I try to take them on a behind-the-scenes tour of B.C.’s most important and historical building. Last week, the local Reynolds High School social studies 11 class made such a request. Students of B.C. politics may know that school is Horgan’s alma mater. I arranged for the class to drop into the premier’s office, where a Reynolds High School banner is draped over the entrance.That morning happened to be the Great Shakeout, when everyone is supposed to practice earthquake survival skills, such as ducking and covering. They gathered in his office for a few minutes of small talk, and the premier piped up. “Hey, I’ve got an idea! Let’s go up to the cabinet room so you can dive under the cabinet table during the earthquake drill,” he suggested. The wide-eyed young-
sters made their way up the legendary, narrow spiral staircase (originally installed during former B.C. Premier Bill Bennett’s time) to the cabinet chamber. Horgan opened the door and stumbled into a cabinet committee meeting, composed of cabinet ministers and their deputies. He quickly and good-naturedly asked them to leave and at first, they seemed to think he was joking. But no, he explained, we’ve got some high school students here and we need the room. I wasn’t quite sure this was actually happening: some of the most powerful people in the province having to make way for some social studies students (at least they were laughing about it as they were ushered out). And with that, Horgan held court over the group as they sat around a table where many historic decisions have been made over many, many years. Plenty of giggling ensued, as Horgan cracked jokes at one end of the table. The whole episode was another example of Horgan’s approach to the job, which seems partly focused on having fun and intermingling with the public as much as anything. It is what sets him apart from so many others. And it was a glimpse of why he has proven to be a natural political campaigner. Pushing the powerful people aside in favour of the younger generation? That’s a good look on any politician. Keith Baldrey is chief political reporter for Global BC.

Man gets a 21-crane salute
A well-known Lower Mainland crane driver stabbed to death during a botched break-and-enter was laid to rest with a fitting, 21-crane salute. A convoy of 21 crane trucks escortedVic Fraser’s bright red rig as it brought his casket from St.Theresa’s church to the cemetery. As his coffin was lifted to the graveside from the back of his own flatbed truck, the drivers raised their cranes in a solemn salute. Fraser was killed in March when he dropped by his sister’s Surrey home and apparently came upon a knife wielding burglar. He was found on the floor inside the home.

Fee for landlords is class warfare that will backfire Editor: Re: Burnaby charging landlords $570/year for licence replacing ‘stove tax’, NOW, Oct. 11 This month, the City of Burnaby announced changes to their supplementary utility fee, including the introduction of a new house rental business licence, which is the same amount as the supplementary utility fee. According to the city’s website, the purpose of their new house rental business licence is to ensure that homeowners renting out their house will be required to pay a fee similar to the supplementary utility fee. Don’t be fooled by the city’s attempt to meld these issues and obfuscate the truth. All Burnaby homeowners must now swear a declaration as to whether their house contains a suite, whether this suite is rented and whether the entire house is rented. Previously, all houses with suites were required to pay the supplemental utility fee, but now the fee will only apply where the suite is rented. As such, if family members occupy the suite, the fee will no longer be owing. The theory behind the original fee was that if a home contains a suite, the homeowner should be subject to the supplemental fee because there is additional strain on the city’s utilities. If the city now chooses to waive this fee because the suite is used by relatives who do not pay rent, that is the city’s prerogative. However, to attempt to recoup this lost revenue from landlords renting out single-family homes to
single-family tenants is disingenuous. Why should a single-family house be subject to two levels of utility fees simply because it is occupied by a tenant? The recently introduced house rental business licence of $570 is simply an additional tax on landlords. I appreciate that it is difficult for most to have sympathy for those fortunate enough to own two houses and generate rental income; however, continually punishing landlords is not the way to encourage the much-needed additions to the city’s rental stock. These sorts of taxes will not only discourage the creation of new rental housing but also cause existing rental housing to disappear. The irony is that this new house tax does not apply to apartments, yet the most pronounced shortage in the supply of rental accommodation is for larger housing units suitable for families. I currently earn significantly less than a oneper-cent rate of return (before tax) on my rental house in South Burnaby, and this new $570 annual fee will further decrease my return. At some point, it fails to make any economic sense to continue. I fail to see how this benefits tenants. Perhaps the city is more interested in class warfare and a cash grab from those that they perceive will elicit no sympathy than benefiting tenants who run the risk of eviction after landlords sell their properties because they finally get sick and tired of being taxed and regulated to death.

Julian makes it six in a row Theresa McManus tmcmanus@burnabynow.com
It’s six in a row for Peter Julian. Having won five consecutive federal elections, the New Westminster-Burnaby NDP candidate made it six in a row on election day. And he did it in spades. “They have given me the largest majority I’ve gotten since I started running,” said Julian, who has served as New Westminster’s MP since 2004. “I work hard every day on their behalf because they are my bosses, and I never forget that.” Preliminary results show Julian topped the polls in New Westminster-Burnaby with 23,022 (44.2 per cent) of the votes.That’s up from the 43.5 per cent of the vote he had in the 2005 election. Trailing behind in this year’s election were: Liberal candidate Will Davis – 12,240 votes (23.5 per cent); Conservative candidate Megan Veck – 11,278 votes (21.6 per cent); Green candidate Suzanne de Mon-
tigny – 4,280 votes (8.2 per cent); People’s Party candidate Hansen Ginn – 845 vote (1.6 per cent); Libertarian candidate Neeraj Murarka – 304 votes (0.6 per cent); independent candidate Ahmad Passyar – 82 votes (0.2 per cent); and Marxist-Leninist candidate Joseph Theriault – 57 votes (0.1 per cent). “I find it is easier over the years because I meet so many people that we have helped,” he told the NOW at the NDP election night party at the Hilton Vancouver Metrotown. “We have helped 15,000 families, so I do find it easier – when you have knocked on a door and helped a family, you’ve got their votes for life.What I find interesting is this is the largest majority we have had. In fact it is the largest majority the NDP has ever had in New Westminster. The results are still coming in, so I won’t take that to the bank.” Julian said he’s knocked on several thousand doors while campaigning, but
close to 10,000 since the 2015 election. “It comes from hard work and helping people,” he said of his results. “I don’t take that for granted. I never will. I think whenever you start taking people for granted you are no longer of use to them on a democratic system.” The Liberals had enough seats (157) to form a minority government, followed by the Conservatives (121), the Bloc Quebecois (32), the NDP (24), Greens (three) and one independent.
Clarification The City of Burnaby wants to clarify one point in the NOW’s story, New licence coming for some landlords.The new business licence will be required for all homeowners who intend to rent out all or part of their home for any amount of time in 2020, and do not live on the premises, as opposed to whether or not the owner lives there.

ELECTIONS
Students vote for NDP candidates Cornelia Naylor
cnaylor@burnabynow.com
If it had been up to local students, Burnaby would have been all orange after Monday’s federal election. More than 14,000 students in Burnaby’s three ridings cast ballots in Student Vote Canada 2019, a parallel federal election put on by Civix, a national registered charity that encourages young Canadians to get involved in the electoral process. The local student vote mirrored the grown-up results in Burnaby South, where youngsters cast 2,454 ballots for NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh, compared to 857 votes for Conservative Jay Shin and 788 for Liberal Neelam Brar. In New WestminsterBurnaby, students voted like their parents and other old folks, re-electing NDP incumbent Peter Julian by a hefty margin, with 2,023 votes. Unlike their grown-up
counterparts, though, more kids voted for Green Party candidate Suzanne de Montigny (674) than for Liberal Will Davis (666). One place where students didn’t follow the adults’ lead, though, was in Burnaby-North Seymour. Kids who voted in that riding supported New Democrat Svend Robinson’s comeback bid, electing him with 1,474 votes. Green candidate Amita Kuttner garnered the second-most votes at 1,091, while Liberal incumbent Terry Beech (who was re-elected by the grown-ups Monday) came a close third with 1,027 votes. Heather Leung, the candidate fired by the Conservative Party during the election campaign for homophobic remarks she had made in the past, got nearly 10,000 adult votes Monday and came in third. The kids relegated her to fifth place behind People’s Party candidate Rocky Dong. Students at 74 public

and independent schools in Burnaby, North Vancouver and New Westminster participated in the vote. Canada-wide, more than 1.18 million elementary and secondary school students cast ballots at 7,855 schools, voting in a Liberal minority government with 110 seats. The NDP won 99 seats,
followed by the Conservatives with 94 seats, the Greens with 28 seats and the Bloc Québécois with nine seats. As in the adult election, the Conservative Party won the popular vote with 25.1 per cent, compared to the NDP’s 24.8, the Liberals’ 22.3 and the Green’s 18.2.

Citynow No charges against man who defamed private eye Cornelia Naylor
cnaylor@burnabynow.com
A Burnaby private investigator has failed in a second attempt to make criminal charges stick against another PI recently found to have made defamatory statements about her online for more than a year. In April, B.C. Supreme Court Justice Jane Dardi ordered Lee Hanlon, a private investigator from Mission, to pay Dianna Leigh Holden, also known as Jolene Johnson, $27,500 for defamatory statements about her made between July 2016 and September 2017 on Facebook, LinkedIn, Craigslist, Hanlon’s personal website and a website called brainsyntax.com. Hanlon – who had met Holden because of their work in similar fields – had said Holden was a liar and a con artist who gave the profession a bad name. He claimed she had harassed him, appropriated money from her company, didn’t live up to her refund policy and was mentally unstable. He further stated she had a violent criminal history,
made false claims to authorities, set up parents dealing with the Ministry of Children and Families and was “extremely litigious.” Hanlon didn’t deny making the statements, arguing instead that they were fair comment because they were true. But Dardi said Hanlon provided nothing but hearsay evidence to back up 11 out of 12 of his defamatory claims. Since Holden had been involved in a number of previous lawsuits, Dardi ruled Hanlon’s only statement that wasn’t defamatory was that Holden was “extremely litigious.” Besides ordering Hanlon to pay Holden $27,500, she banned him from “writing, publishing, posting or in any way distributing or making public any accusatory or disparaging allegations regarding the honesty, trustworthiness or alleged improper behaviour” of Holden. But Holden told the NOW Hanlon has since made complaints against her to Consumer Protection BC and asked for her credentials to be revoked.
Criminal harassment charges have twice been recommended against Hanlon, first by the Abbotsford police department and then – last month – by the Burnaby RCMP after complaints from Holden. But the B.C. Prosecution Service has declined to proceed with the charges both times. Holden said she believes the prosecution service is
discriminating against her because she has diagnosed mental illnesses – borderline personality disorder and PTSD. B.C. Prosecution Service spokesperson Dan McLaughlin said he couldn’t comment on Holden’s case specifically but explained Crown counsel won’t proceed with charges in any case unless there is a “substantial likelihood” of
conviction and the prosecution is in the public interest. “Crown Counsel must also remain aware of the presumption of innocence, the prosecution’s burden of proof beyond a reasonable doubt, and the fact that under Canadian criminal law, a reasonable doubt can arise from the evidence, the absence of evidence, inconsistencies in the evidence or the credibility or reliability
of one or more of the witnesses,” McLaughlin said. When asked whether the prosecution service would reject charges because of a complainant’s mental health conditions, McLaughlin said it wouldn’t be inappropriate to comment generally about the impact of mental health issues “given the broad range of mental health challenges that exist.”

The Premium Spirits You’ll Want from BC Liquor Stores in 2019 Adele Shaw has worked with local spirit companies and suppliers as well as travelling to key whisky countries to source the best selection of exceptional spirits to offer customers for this year’s annual Premium Spirit Release.
“For people who are lining up, the Macallan 25-year-old usually sells out; the Glen Grant 18-year-old historically sells out too,” says Shaw. “The new Ardbeg 19-year-old is one of the oldest Ardbegs we’ve had in a long time, and I think those will go very quickly too.”
For Shaw, Nov. 2, 2019, is the day she gets to raise a glass to customers when BC Liquor Stores unveils its popular annual Premium Spirit Release.
The Premium Spirit Release also allows Shaw to share some of their newer finds from around the world. “We want to offer customers something new they haven’t tried before.”
Along with a global selection of whiskies Shaw has helped to discover, there are other premium spirits, including rums, gins, tequilas and liqueurs available during the event. “It’s really popular with our customers. Every year it gets bigger,” she says. That’s because the release is an opportunity to get your hands on rare whiskies and spirits. This year’s “Rarities” – which are only available for purchase by registering your name for an in-store draw that includes Bowmore 50-year-old 1965 ($45,000), which will be drawn at the Park Royal Signature BC Liquor Store on Friday, Nov. 1, 2019, at 8 p.m.
This year’s event also includes whisky offerings from England, France, India and Japan. “Japanese whisky is a hot trend right now,” she says. Prefer bourbon? Taste some of the limited-edition bourbons. Shaw says single cask bourbon also usually sells out quickly, “because people realize what a unique opportunity it is to get these whiskies and that they will never be seen again.” Shaw also sourced and personally selected some single cask scotches as well a single cask Patron tequila. This year’s Premium Spirit Release also includes tasting events at several liquor stores. “We have brand ambassadors and master distillers. We have master blender Don Liverpool coming from J.P. Wiser, and he’s going to talk about Canadian whisky,” she says.
Want to try something different this holiday season? Shaw recommends Gran Patron Smoky ($269.99). “First of all, I love tequila, and this is almost like a version of mezcal because of the smokiness, so it’s unique for Patron.” Along with stocking up your own cellar, the Premium Spirit Release is also an excellent opportunity to discover the perfect gift for scotch or spirits lovers and the 108-page brochure, available at bcliquorstores.com, is an excellent guide to find something unique for every taste on your list. If you’re new to scotch, Shaw recommends starting with the Glenmorangie Allta ($154.99). “Glenmorangie single malts are always one of my favourites. They are very approachable with lots of honey and citrus flavours and is not peated. The Allta is true to the Glenmorangie style.”
There is also an in-store draw for the chance to purchase The Macallan Genesis 72-year-old ($78,000), The Macallan Exceptional Single Cask 9064 ($600), and The Macallan 30-year-old ($4,350) which will be held at the 39th and Cambie Signature BC Liquor Store on Thursday, Oct. 31, 2019, at 8 p.m. Tickets are handed out at 5 p.m. on the day of the draw and customers must be present at the time to win the opportunity to purchase the Rarities. Of course, it’s the more modestly priced – but equally coveted – bottles that draw the most attention during the Premium Spirit Release.
Shaw recently worked with Dr. Don Liverpool to help create J.P. Wiser’s Rare Cask Series Seven Rebels, which costs $69.99 and was created exclusively for BC Liquor Stores. “I can’t tell you how many whisky variations we went through to come up with this whisky. Usually, whiskies are sweet and easy drinking – we wanted this one to be more complex and layered with flavours. I highly recommend it.”

5th ANNUAL GOLF TOURNAMENT With your generous contributions, we raised $60,000 to support women recovering from addictions at Charlford House!
Thank you to our guests, donors and volunteers Artist’s vision: You can view artwork by Janet Anderson at Burnaby Neighbourhood House’s north location throughout the month of November. PHOTOS CONTRIBUTED
Neighbourhood House features local artwork
You can enjoy the work of another local artist at Burnaby Neighbourhood House next month. Paintings by Janet Anderson will be on display at the North House location during the month of November. Anderson, originally from New Brunswick, moved to Vancouver at the age of 23. After she married, she moved to North Burnaby,
where she raised four children. “As a young child, Janet always loved to draw, but it wasn’t until three years ago that she tried her hand at watercolours,” said a press release. Anderson has since found acrylics to be her preferred medium, and she’s taught herself with help from online videos. Her work reflects the beauty of na-
ture, people and maritime themed images in a style she calls “happy realism.” You can see the art anytime between 9:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m., Monday to Friday.There’s also an open house and meet-the-artist event on Friday, Nov. 8 from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. Burnaby Neighbourhood House North House is at 4908 Hastings St.

Your salad dressing is making ‘fatbergs’ in the sewers Most Metro Vancouver residents know cooking grease shouldn’t be poured down the drain, but many are unaware that dairy products, salad dressings and margarine can also wreak havoc on the sewer system. That was among the findings of recent focus group testing by Metro Vancouver, which is enhancing its Wipe It, Green Bin It campaign to encourage residents to properly dispose of all fats, oils and grease (FOG) in their green bin, and not down the sink. Fat-containing products create chemical reactions in the sewers, hardening and binding with other materials when washed down a drain, coagulating into blobs, or “fatbergs,” which cause clogs and sewage overflows. Metro Vancouver and its member jurisdictions annually spend at least $2.7 million unclogging, repairing and replacing regional infrastructure impacted by FOG – not to mention the cost-
ly plumbing and restoration expenses that homeowners face when these blockages hit home. “With the busy holiday season around the corner, we hope residents will think twice about washing items like gravy, yogurt or leftover salad dressing down the drain,” says Richard Stewart, chair of Metro Vancouver’s liquid waste committee. “Instead, simply wipe it up or scrape it in your green bin – it’s easy, quick and won’t cause problems in the sewer system.” Over the past year, Metro Vancouver has worked with four municipalities who have identified grease “hotspot” areas particularly hard hit by high levels of FOG. Operations staff have been monitoring grease levels at local pump stations in the cities of Coquitlam, Delta and Richmond as well as the Township of Langley since the fall of 2018. “The local geography also plays a role when it comes to areas in the region that
are more heavily impacted by FOG issues,” added Stewart. “Low-lying or flat municipalities such as Richmond and Delta tend to see the highest grease buildup, whereas areas on the North Shore often benefit from the pull of gravity that helps move grease through the sewer system more easily.” Wipe It, Green Bin It will reach residents through targeted advertising in settings where they purchase or think about food such as grocery stores, transit shelters, on lifestyle websites and on social media. A dedicated website – www.wipeitgreenbinit.ca – provides a list of what can’t go down the drain, how to properly dispose of FOG, and details of recycling depots that accept larger quantities of grease and oil. Visit the website at www. wipeitgreenbinit.ca to find out more about correct disposal for fats, oils and grease.

Why every mom identifies with Meghan Markle She may be the Duchess of Sussex, but she also knows first-hand how tough motherhood can be Mommy’s
GROUNDED Bianca Bujan
Sitting in a room filled with women I don’t know, at the home of a mom I’ve only met briefly at school, I feel oddly at ease. Unlike engaging in small talk with strangers at a business function, I know that I’m amongst people who are soon to become friends. We’re all moms, partaking in a wine social to get to know each other as we begin a new school year. Regardless of age, background, interests, or beliefs, when you get a group of moms together in a room, chances are the conversation will eventually turn to the challenges we’ve faced with our children. We bond over birth stories, botched bedtimes, toddler tantrums, and fussy feeding schedules, and take comfort in knowing that we’re not alone in our struggles. Being a mom is hard. But being a new mom who’s navigating parenthood for the very first time is even harder. Add to that the new-
ness of motherhood and doing it all under the world’s watchful eye and it’s easy to understand why a newly married, newly royal mom wouldn’t be OK. In a recent interview with Tom Bradby of ITV, Meghan Markle chokes back tears as she discusses the personal challenges she faces as a new mom who is living life in the spotlight. During the interview, the topic turns to motherhood, and Bradby asks if she’s OK. Meghan responds, “Thank you for asking, because not many people have asked if I’m OK, but it’s a very real thing to be going through behind the scenes.” Recognizing the pain behind her poised response, Bradby continues, “And the answer is, would it be fair to say, not really OK?” In a gut-wrenchingly alltoo-relatable reply, Meghan responds with a choked up, “Yes.” Showing the real emotions that hide behind the royal waves and steady smiles, Meghan Markle suddenly becomes relatable to the everyday moms who feel her pain.
“It’s not enough to just survive something, that’s not the point of life.You’ve gotta thrive, and feel happy and I think I’ve really tried to adopt this British sensibility of a stiff upper lip, but I think what that does internally can be really damaging,” Markle shares in another clip from the interview, and we get it. I’m juggling my job with the everyday grind of being a mom of three busy kids. And while being a mom is a rewarding and wonderful role, I wouldn’t be able to do it without the support of my husband and friends. I hope Meghan has a group of mom friends to confide in and find the support she needs, and I hope Harry continues to stand by her side as she navigates the newness of motherhood, and all the challenges that her new role brings. I take comfort in knowing she is just another mom who is doing her best, struggles and all, and I know that other moms can relate too.

Help the University of Guelph improve hearing healthcare across Canada. Connect Hearing and Professor Mark Fenske at the University of Guelph are seeking participants who are over 50 years of age, have never worn hearing aids and have not had a hearing test in the last 24 months, for a hearing study that investigates factors that can influence better hearing. Study Parameters The researchers will examine listening in a range of situations, from one-on-one, to group conversations, watching TV and wider social contexts like supermarkets and other noisy environments, and how it effects connection and socialization.
Why Participate? It is estimated that 46% of people aged 45 to 87 have some degree of hearing loss, but most do not seek a solution right away. In this study you’ll be playing an important part in determining the key factors around identifying hearing loss and what influences the decision to seek treatment.
Participants will be significantly adding to growing knowledge surrounding hearing loss.

Burnaby student earns world taekwondo medals Darryl Andaya returned from the inaugural International Special Needs Taekwon-Do Games with two golds, a silver and a bronze Darryl Andaya is no stranger to extraordinary accomplishments. Through nine years of intense dedication and hard work at his family’s studio in Burnaby, he earned his black belt in taekwondo – a lofty achievement made even more impressive by the fact that Andaya has Down syndrome. Andaya’s excellence in the martial arts propelled him all the way to New Zealand, where he represented Canada earlier this month at the inaugural International Special Needs Taekwon-Do Games.There, he made history by becoming one of the first-ever Special Needs Taekwon-Do world champions, winning two gold medals, one silver, and one bronze. As the one-man Canadian team, Andaya placed fourth among all nations and quickly became a fan favourite. “Canada was well-loved and other countries chanted ‘Canada!’ every time Darryl went on the mats,” said his father Darius, owner of DSA Taekwon-Do. “Darryl made lots of new friends from other countries, and hopefully he can make it to the next one in the Netherlands in 2021.” The medals he earned in New Zealand are not Andaya’s only accolades of late. Before jetting off to the games, he added another prize to his burgeoning trophy shelf: the 2019 George Klukas Achievement Award. Presented annually to a student of the Burnaby-based Down Syndrome Resource Foundation by DSRF board member George Klukas in recognition of significant improvement and success over the past year, the prestigious Klukas Award celebrates the achievements of an older teen or young adult with Down syndrome. Andaya, 19, has completed years of speech therapy at DSRF, as well as participating in the popular Music in Motion program.Through his work at DSRF, Andaya has begun to speak more and become better able to vocalize his thoughts. He has become more confident and increasingly independent, making

Volunteers help improve Burnaby Lake Park The Burnaby Lake Park Association was busy on Sunday doing its part to mitigate the effects of climate change. It worked with TD to deliver a TD Tree Days event that saw 90 volunteers plant more than 550 native trees, shrubs and plants at the Lenson Field restoration site, located at the southeast end of Burnaby Lake Regional Park near Cariboo Dam.

These non-native organisms can alter habitats and often displace native vegetation through competition for water, nutrients, and space. “Restoring the Lenson Field site has focused on improving the terrestrial ecosystem health,” said Irene Lau, chair of the association. “The first step is removing invasive plants. Once established, these non-native species have many negative impacts in-
cluding creating monocultures which threaten biodiversity and also reduce productivity of soil and water quality. Replanting these areas with a diverse range of native species is better for the native birds and wildlife, and helps the ecosystem to become more resilient to future changes.” Lau said the association has worked with TD to plant 15 different native species on this site. In 2018, they put 400 of
holding soil intact. This event is one of 158 TD Tree Days events taking place across North America this fall. The Burnaby Lake Park Association was founded in 1972 and has been an active volunteer organization leading stewardship activities that preserve, restore, and protect Burnaby Lake Regional Park’s ecological integrity.

The Burnaby Board of Trade says it’s lobbying its provincial and national counterparts to join its push for more federal funding for language training for new Canadians entering the labour force. The push comes as businesses in Burnaby, and B.C. more broadly, grapples with a labour shortage. In a statement, the board said it sees immigration as a “key part of our workforce mix.” “That’s why the BBoT is advocating to the federal government for more funding for language training supports for newcomers to help them more quickly integrate into the workforce,” reads the board’s statement. The board added it’s asked the B.C. and Canadian chambers of commerce to endorse the position and said it will be engaging the new government to “push for greater investment in
this area.” “To address ongoing labour shortages, businesses need to be able to deepen their potential labour pools, and immigration represents an integral solution to our economy’s labour needs,” the board said. “Newcomers bring new ideas, fresh perspectives and willing labour to our workforce, and it is in the interest of both businesses and newcomers to support their quick integration into the labour market.” But the board says long wait lists and “inadequate” training through the Language Instruction for Newcomers to Canada (LINC) program has “undermined” newcomers’ ability to join the labour force. And for women, who are still often the primary caregivers for children, there are even more barriers, the board says. “While the LINC program does offer some funding for childminding, it is

City now Intersections set for safety upgrades Using the B.C. Parkway that snakes along underneath the SkyTrain line is generally a safe experience – until you hit an intersection. Then things get dicey for pedestrians and cyclists from sometimes-reckless drivers thanks to some poor designs. So,TransLink is working to fix some of those areas by spending $488,000 at five Burnaby intersections in 2019.This includes upgrading the crossings by providing elephant feet markings, curb extensions, lighting improvements and bicycle sensors. Upgrades are coming to the BC Parkway intersections at Patterson Avenue,
Wilson Avenue, Nelson Avenue, Macpherson Avenue and Rumble Street. For Rumble, this follows $400,000 TransLink spent in 2018 on cycling upgrades from McKay Avenue to Royal Oak Avenue. In all, nearly $100 million will be awarded this year by TransLink to help construct or improve 76 projects throughout the region, while helping to maintain over 2,700 kilometres of road lanes. Since the inception of the 10-Year Mayors’ Plan,TransLink has increased funding toward improving and maintaining walkways, cycle paths, and roads.

Osho tallies five times in STM win Knights running back proves unstoppable in five-TD game Dan Olson
dolson@burnabynow.com
It was Osho, Osho and more Osho last Saturday. The Seaquam Seahawks were unable to contain St.Thomas More’s Nick Osho, as the Grade 11 ball carrier counted five touchdowns to lead a solid 31-22 victory in North Delta. The wet weather added a layer of difficulty for ball handlers on both teams. But Osho was able to hold on en route to a big game. “We got off to a great start, even though it didn’t work exactly how we planned it,” remarked STM coach Steve De Lazzari. “We were successful with an onside kick on the opening kickoff, but we were intercepted in the end zone.” On Seaquam’s first offensive play moments later, Osho stripped the ball free to give the Knights great field position. He’d carry it in from 14 yards out for the game’s first major. The Burnaby squad’s second major came after another turnover off their second kick, setting up Osho’s twoyard score. After the Seahawks scored in the second quarter, Osho countered with a 12-yard dash to end the half. Then on the first play of the second half, he broke free for an 80-yard major to make it 25-7.That comfort zone was shortlived, however, as the Seahawks attacked and got within a field goal of tying the game. But Osho wasn’t finished. He stripped Seaquam’s quarterback, and teammate Sean Oreta corralled the loose ball. A few plays later, Osho iced it with a four-yard run for a TD. “Having coached his older brother, David, I knew (Nick) had this kind of potential. He was following in some talented footsteps, and he’s really developed his ground game this season,” noted De Lazzari. Osho finished with 260 yards on 29 carries, in addition to two forced fumbles from his outside linebacker position. Quarterback Anthony De Lazzari, meanwhile, completed five of eight pass attempts for 65 yards. Kaishaun Carter would tally nine tackles, while Bryson Vanloo and Osho counted five tackles apiece. The Knights remain ranked fifth overall in the B.C. AAA football poll. They now venture to Coquitlam to play the winless Centennial Centaurs on Friday (7:30 p.m. at Percy Perry Stadium).

Record creates boating ripple effect
Burnaby dragon boater soaks up summer’s thrilling string of gold medals Dan Olson
dolson@burnabynow.com
It’s not often you get to shatter a world record. If you can do it with some of your best friends beside you, all the better. Burnaby’s Paige Misfeldt did just that two months ago at the 14th annual IDBF Dragon Boat world championships in PattayaRayong,Thailand. As part of a tremendously successful run at the competition, where Misfeldt paddled her part in a three-gold, two-bronze performance, Canada established a new world record in the 200-metre premier women’s grand final. By posting the first-ever sub46-second time (45.95 seconds), the Canadians got more than bragging rights. It was just part of a tremendous week of racing, where legs and arms were worked to the max. “Every international competition is slightly different because you have new teammates, new coaches, new competition,
Riverway Golf Course & Driving Range 604-280-4653
Central Park Pitch & Putt
and it challenges you to always be adaptable,” Misfeldt told the NOW via email. “The last most memorable achievement was winning the nations cup in 2015, but also because it was my first time being on Team Canada.” She’s been hitting the catch for Canada since 2015. Now, as one of the veterans on the crew, Misfeldt takes each race as a link in a chain, knowing the whole process of what it takes to get a strong team together, rowing as one. “There a lot of work and planning that happens before the actual competition to make sure that we feel confident and ready when we get into the boat on race day,” she said. “Since our team comprises of athletes (from) all across Canada, we (had) a oneweek training camp in Tremblant, Quebec, two weeks before the competition in Thailand. “This camp is an intense five days where we train three times, two hours per day.The goal of the camp is to learn to gel as a team and flush out any pre-race jitters, so we can go into race day

Kensington Pitch & Putt
feeling calm and ready. It’s also a great opportunity to bond with our new teammates, as we don’t get to see each other that often throughout the year.” Things got off on the right foot at the competition when they captured the women’s 2000m event, edging the host country by nearly 12 seconds with a time of 8:49.59 minutes.
... You could feel everyone giving it their all to try and beat the clock. The Canadian women then found themselves in a heated four-way showdown, placing third overall in the 1000m final. Their time of 4:09.232 was just a little more than a tenth of a second back of first-place Thailand. Misfeldt was also part of a mixed team that finished third in the 500m race.
In the 200m, the world record was the icing as Canada bested China, which finished second with a time of 46.12 seconds. Among her teammates was another Burnaby native, Colleen Leung. Misfeldt said, with that record in the books, the team laid it all on the line in the last event, the premier women’s 500m race. By less than a second, the Canadian women defeated the U.S. for the gold with a time of 2:00.693. “It was the last race of the competition, and we set this crazy goal for ourselves to try to beat another world record,” recalls Misfeldt. “The whole race had so much emotion and you could feel everyone giving it their all to try and beat the clock.We came first in the race, and, although it wasn’t a world record, I wouldn’t have ended the competition any other way.” A CPA outside of the boat, the Simon Fraser University alumna got into the sport for just an interesting experience.

SFU ends drought It’s just one win, but it’s also hopefully the sign of more. The Simon Fraser University football team ended a five-year drought last week with a 24-17 win over the Azusa Pacific University in the Los Angeles suburb. Yes, it’s been that long between wins – with the previous one against a NCAA Div. 2 rival coming in 2014. SFU overcame a 10-point deficit in the second half, but did so thanks to a standout pass defence.The Clan defence accumulated five first-half sacks, including Ian Crocker’s two. He’d add six tackles on the day. Quarterback Brandon Niksich set the tone in the second half, leading a 12-
play, 73-yard drive ending with a two-yard TD pass to Rysen John. David Eisencraft’s point-after kick made it 10-7, and was followed with another Niksich-toJohn passing play, this time giving SFU a 14-10 edge. In the fourth quarter, the pair again hooked up, with John pulling down a 22yard pass from Niksich to up the lead to 21-10.They’d tack on a 29-yard field goal. Niksich finished with 235 yards passing, going 22-for32. John caught eight passes for 109 yards. Defensively, the Clan was led by Ian Crocker’s eight tackles and two QB sacks. SFU heads to Ellensburg, Wash., looking to improve on its 1-6 record.

Continued from page 33 found herself wanting to test her skills as part of a dedicated team. “I instantly loved the sport and decided to challenge myself to see how far I could make it.The process of trying out involved a lot of discipline, and I had strong mentors when I first started, which really helped guide me through the everyday land and water training,” she recalled. Now, it’s a big part of her life – and while the bounty she’s achieved while representing her country is awesome, it’s hard to top the adrenaline and camaraderie that come from training and competing together on the water. “In order to have a good race everyone on the boat needs to work together and blend technique. For a great race, everyone just goes,” said Misfeldt. “You have so much trust in each other that blend is second nature and the focus shifts to what that race needs in that moment in time and everyone takes individual responsibility for making that happen.”

Looking for a new home? Start here.
Newcomers to Canada buy one in every five homes Newcomers to Canada are moving the dial on real estate demand, with one in every five Canadian homes purchased by a buyer who arrived in the past 10 years, according to a survey by national real estate brokerage Royal LePage. The study of 1,500 newcomers to Canada, all of whom arrived in the past decade, included immigrants, refugees, those on working visas and international students. “In addition to supporting Canada’s economic growth, newcomers to Canada are vital to the health of our national real estate market,” said Phil Soper, president and CEO, Royal LePage. “The demand for affordable housing can be met through housing policies that encourage smart and sustainable development, with a focus on protecting and developing green spaces in our urban centres. Canada’s economy and labour markets are expanding and it is crucial that housing supply keeps pace.” Eighty-six per cent of Canadian newcomers said they see real estate as a good investment and 75 per cent arrive with savings to help purchase a property. The study showed that of the newcomers that purchased a home, the average time was three years after arriving in Canada. “It is not surprising that newcomers see a home in Canada as a good investment. Having lived abroad
myself, I have seen first-hand the challenges of relocating a family to a new world. It takes courage and commitment. Newcomers are doing more than investing in Canadian real estate, they are investing

in their family’s future,” added Soper. Royal LePage said in its report, “Despite the desire to purchase a home, the homeownership rate of newcomers is only 32 per cent. The overall homeownership rate for all Canadians is 68 per cent. Of those who purchase a home, 51 per cent of newcomers buy a detached house, 18 per cent buy a condominium, 15 per cent buy a townhouse and 13 per cent buy a semi-detached house.” If the current international migration level is

maintained, Canadian newcomers are expected to purchase 680,000 homes over the next five years, said Royal LePage. B.C. RESULTS In British Columbia, the homeownership rate among newcomers was the same as the national figure, at 32 per cent, and the figure was the same for newcomers living in Greater Vancouver. But the proportion of newcomers to British Columbia having enough funds to help buy a home was higher than the national figure, at 89 per cent. Royal LePage said, “Consumer confidence in the province’s real estate market is healthy, as 85 per cent of respondents in British Columbia believe that homeownership is a good financial investment. Eighty-six per cent of newcomers in British Columbia remain in their first city or region of residence. Currently, newcomers represent 15 per cent of all home buyers in the province and they are projected to purchase 91,000 homes over the next five years at the current rate of international migration.” Randy Ryalls, general manager, Royal LePage Sterling Realty, added, “Greater Vancouver is one of the most desirable places in the world to live and we attract newcomers who are optimistic about what the city has to offer in terms of both lifestyle and employment.”
