The Cascade wing of Burnaby Hospital sustained extensive damage during a suspicious fire that forced the evacuation of patients and staff Sunday night and shut down the ER for most of Monday. Firefighters were called to the hospital at 10:14

p.m., according to assistant fire Chief Dave Younger. On arrival, they found heavy smoke billowing from several doors and windows in the six-storey wing off Sunset Street and Ingleton Avenue. “It was quite heavy, soot-filled black smoke,” Younger said. A crowd of people, including some wrapped in

robes and blankets, had already been evacuated to a glassed-in patio outside,Younger said, but they were too close to the smoke, so crews escorted them to the street. A transit bus driver who happened to be driving by in a bus stopped to offer help and arranged for three more buses to come to the area to shelter patients from the cold and

It was Terry something,”Younger said. “He was a man on the spot and did all the right things.” Inside the hospital, many patients had already been evacuated to the south side by staff, according toYounger. “They took the ball and were running with it be-

fore we got there.They did a beautiful job,” he said. “They had people in all the hallways and shoved into all over the place is what I’m told.” Once power was shut off to the north wing, crews knocked down the blaze “pretty promptly,” but the whole wing sustained “extensive” fire, smoke and water damage, according toYounger.

Younger said the fire was “suspicious” and is under investigation. The second floor of the Cascade building houses the inpatient mental health unit. No patients or staff were injured, Fraser Health said, but 18 patients had to be transferred to other hospitals because of bad air quality caused by the fire.

Burnaby COVID-19 cases rose 21% in October

New cases of COVID-19 jumped by 21% in Burnaby last month, as cases in the city have surged since the beginning of September. Cases spiked again in October, with 287 compared to 238 cases in September. Of the 857 cases reported in Burnaby from the start of the pandemic until Oct. 31, more than half of them have occurred since September, according to data released by the

BC Centre for Disease Control Thursday. Some of the cases have been seen in numerous Burnaby public and private schools, with the city’s largest school, Burnaby North Secondary, seeing five separate exposure notices since the start of the school year. Multiple Burnaby care homes have also seen cases. But many more cases are now being seen in other parts of the community.

The Burnaby health delivery area — which includes Burnaby,Tri-Cities, New Westminster and Maple Ridge — has seen a major uptick, having reported 587 cases of COVID-19 in the past week, a 48.7% increase over the previous week. Where in the summer and early fall spillover from younger demographics was largely contained, provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry recently said that the prov-

ince is once again seeing an increase in the number of seniors testing positive with the virus.That’s a worrying trend considering roughly half of the deaths in B.C. due to COVID-19 have occurred in seniors homes. “As we move into our respiratory season, our cough and flu seasons, we’re finding that this virus as well finds it easier to transmit, partly because we’re indoors more but also because the weather

conditions, the climate conditions make it easy to spread,” she said. New modelling from the BCCDC indicates cases of COVID-19 are doubling across the province every 13 days. That’s put pressure on contact tracers, whose work is critical to understanding and isolating the virus before it’s transmitted further, Henry said. “Our ability in public health to find everybody in a timely way, particu-

larly in the Fraser Health and Vancouver Coastal Health has been stretched to the max and we’re falling a little bit behind, which is why we put in the measures we put in,” said Henry, referring to sweeping measures announced for Metro Vancouver over the weekend. “We’re reaching our limits.” -With files from Stefan Labbe,Tri-City News

FATAL CRASH: A 20-year-old driver is under investigation after a fatal single-vehicle collision in Burnaby that killed a passenger early on Remembrance Day. At 3:10 a.m. on Nov. 11, police responded to reports of a single-vehicle crash in the 5800 block of Byrne Road, according to a Burnaby RCMP news release. Upon arrival, officers located two women in the vehicle. The 20-year-old passenger died at the scene, police said, and the 20-year-old driver was taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. Both were Burnaby residents. Investigators believe the car slammed into a pole, demolishing the vehicle, and both alcohol and speed are believed to have been “causal factors” in the collision, according to the release.

Fortius closure not a surprise, leaves big gap: mayor Dustin Godfrey

dgodfrey@burnabynow.com

The closure of the Fortius Sport and Health centre will leave a unique gap in the city that will be hard to fill, Mayor Mike Hurley said. Fortius runs an elitelevel athlete development and health centre on Kensington Avenue across

from the Burnaby Lake Sports Complex. But the non-profit announced over the weekend that it will be closing its doors for good. A Fortius spokesperson said the organization was not providing interviews at this time, but Hurley said the closure was not unexpected. “We’ve been hear-

ing about that for a little while. It was out there that they were struggling to keep it together financially,” he said. “(It was) a fantastic idea and fantastic facility, but I guess there just wasn’t enough of that type of athlete to make a go of it. I think COVID added to it, but I think they were struggling prior to COVID as well.”

The announcement comes less than a year after a public hearing was held for the non-profit to open an esports training centre, to be run by Adamas Esports.That public hearing concluded with no speakers or letter-writers. “They’ve tried a lot of different things there,” Hurley said. “But obviously the business model

just wasn’t able to sustain it.” He added the Fortius centre “provided something really different” by offering to the general public the kind of athlete training typically available to elites in their fields. “From that perspective, it’ll be very much a missed facility,” he said. Asked whether the city

would be interested in buying the land and incorporating it into the city’s suite of recreation facilities, Hurley said there hasn’t been an opportunity to look at that option. In a statement published to its website, Fortius said it has not yet determined a date at which the facility will close.

Toughen up smoking regs: group Dustin Godfrey

dgodfrey@burnabynow.com

A smoking regulation advocacy group is applauding Burnaby’s efforts to ramp up restrictions on smoking in the city but said the city should go even further with its forthcoming bylaws. Marilyn Bergstra, the B.C. policy specialist with Action on Smoking and Health (ASH Canada), presented to council recently, arguing the city should also ban smoking in hotel rooms and pushing back against hookah lounge owners’ advocacy for an exemption. By limiting where people can smoke, Bergstra said the city can help reduce children’s exposure to smokers, something she noted can influence their

decisions on smoking later in life. Even if children’s parents don’t smoke, seeing it normalized can make them more likely to pick up the habit later in life, she said. This, Bergstra said, is all the more reason to ban all types of smoking inside, something the city’s bylaw is seeking to do. “To a five-year-old, smoking is smoking, whether it involves vaping, smoking or toking of various substances.The more smoking impressions a child accumulates as they are growing up, the more likely they are to become smokers themselves,” Bergstra said. Secondhand smoke from hookah, she added, is just as harmful as cigarette smoking – and could be even more harmful due

to the amount of smoke generated from the hookah water pipe. “The emission from water pipes often exceeds occupational health standards,” Bergstra noted in her case against hookah lounges. Owners and proponents of the lounges point to hookah smoking as a significant cultural practice in places like the Middle East and South Asia. But Bergstra noted several countries have banned hookah smoking inside businesses, including Turkey, Jordan and Lebanon. Instead, Bergstra said it was a matter of workers’ safety rights, something she said is compromised in the proposed bylaw through an exemption for hotel rooms. “All workers deserve full

protection from secondhand smoke, including hotel workers and cleaning staff. Many hotels have already banned smoking in their hotel rooms, and Burnaby should create a level playing field for motels and hotels,” Bergstra said. “People who work at hookah bars and hotels are often working at minimum wage and in part-time positions.These workers are vulnerable due to their precarious employment, and they deserve full protection from second-hand smoke from work.” Bergstra further advocated for the city to ban smoking at all public gatherings, not just the ones in parks, and to apply extra fees to shops selling tobacco to cover the costs of enforcement.

Public wants dog parks Dustin Godfrey

dgodfrey@burnabynow.com

Dogs in northeast Burnaby deserve at least one new off-leash park, city staff concluded following public engagement on the issue. Last year, the city engaged residents in northeast Burnaby neighbourhoods about the potential for new off-leash parks at two sites – Bell Park and Keswick Park, both in the area of the City of Lougheed development. Residents responded resoundingly in favour of the Bell Park site at in -person consultations. Of the 97 households that participated in the two April 2019 open houses at Cameron Recreation Centre, 77% expressed support for the Bell Park proposal, while 53% sup-

ported the Keswick Park proposal. On the flip side of that, 32% explicitly did not support an off-leash section at Keswick Park, while just 11% were not in favour of an offleash section in Bell Park. Email respondents were less enthusiastic about the off-leash proposals – 52% supported one in Bell Park and 38% supported one in Keswick Park. In a report to the city’s parks commission, staff said the support for a Bell Park off-leash section was due to its central location for target neighbourhoods, its distance from busy roads and its accessibility by walking, cycling and driving. Staff recommended approving fencing off an area of Bell Park for offleash facilities.

MY VIEW KEITH BALDREY

New restrictions unlikely to work

As the number of COVID-19 cases in this province dramatically escalates, it is difficult not to envision a return of some of the tighter measures we experienced when this pandemic first began. We have broken through the 700-a-day case threshold and our doubling rate now sits at 13 days. That means we should hit 1,000 cases a day soon (perhaps even this week, as we crossed the 500 threshold on Nov. 6). The number of people in hospital due to having COVID-19 has more than doubled since the last week of October, as has the number of patients in critical care. Provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry has banned social gatherings in Metro Vancouver. We should know this week whether that is having any impact. I will be surprised if the numbers fall off to any great degree.That’s because the virus appears to be running rampant in one particular area of the province – Surrey – and a ban on social gatherings may not be a strongenough measure to stop the spread. Data released by the B.C. Centre for Disease Control last week showed that in October the number of COVID-19 cases in Surrey grew by 2,179.The next highest was Vancouver with 658. Other municipalities had much lower numbers. Burnaby had 287, North Vancouver had 148,West Vancouver had 81, New Westminster had 94 and the Tri-Cities had 363. It will be interesting to see whether this huge spike in cases in November is still centered in Surrey or whether it has become more spread out. Given that Fraser Health (of which Surrey is by far the biggest city of any municipality within

its boundaries) has routinely accounted for 6575% of the positive cases each day, all this month it is unlikely the geographical breakdown of cases has changed. If the ban on social gatherings does not have the desired effect, will other measures be implemented? Other jurisdictions where the virus is surging have gone that route. Manitoba, which has the worst per-capita showing of COVID-19 cases, has closed all non-essential retail outlets and has banned indoor dining and gatherings. Parts of Toronto have different restrictions and many areas ban indoor dining. Ontario’s public health modelling projects that province could hit 6,500 cases a day by midDecember. Across the border in Washington, a four-week semi-lockdown began this week. Restaurants and bars are closed to on-site activities and retail stores are limited to 25% occupancy (the state is now setting daily records of more than 2,000 cases a day). Henry has already opened the door to region-based restrictions. If our daily case numbers do not start declining soon and by a significant amount, do not be surprised if things like a regionally focused ban on indoor dining and reduced retail activities (perhaps even mandatory masks) are back on the table. The virus is rampaging around the world, and we are now in that “second wave” that we all dreaded when this pandemic began. However, back then we did not know what the second wave would actually look like. Now we know and it is a scary sight. Keith Baldrey is chief political reporter for Global BC.

Topic: Should class sizes be cut to 15 during the pandemic?

“Makes sense in terms of health and safety for teachers and staff, while still giving children their educational experience. And it’s doable.”

“The only way to cut classes in half is to cut in-class

instructional time in half. And to do that we need a hybrid model with online/at-home learning. And that’s asking the teachers to do a hell of a lot and it doesn’t reduce the number of contacts.”

One-legged athlete set to sue

A one-legged local powerlifter threatened to sue his sport’s international governing body over rules that banned him from competing. Ian Gregson, who lost his leg in a train accident when he was 15, was banned from the bench-press competition because of International Powerlifting Federation rules that deemed his prosthesis an illegal piece of equipment but also required lifters to keep two feet on the ground during lifts. Gregson threatened to sue the federation unless changes were made during a meeting in Finland.

Burnaby Now THURSDAY, November 19, 2020

Opinionnow Editor: Re: Stop those drivers, NOW Letters, Nov. 12 Residents of Capitol Hill have been petitioning the city for traffic calming for decades now. With recent consultation for a new transportation plan, we held out hope for safer streets. That’s why we were shocked to see the proposed local collector road network for Capitol Hill in the proposed new plan. In Burnaby’s traffic management plan, a local collector road is defined as: “Function, to provide access to and from a residential area. Traffic Service: Carries traffic between local residential streets and major roads. Buses sometimes permitted. Large trucks not permitted.” For Capitol Hill, this should be a local collector road network that carries traffic from residential streets south to Hastings. In presentations for the proposed transportation plan, the proposed collector roads in Capitol Hill run east-west, making it even easier for ratrunners to race through our community as well as through the Heights community, instead of taking Hastings. The result is upwards of 2,000 vehicles racing

past our houses every weekday, concentrated during commuter rush hours. Most of those vehicles originate from east of Burnaby, racing through our neighbourhood to access the Skeena underpass in Vancouver Heights during the a.m. rush hours. That pattern is reversed during the p.m. rush hours. According to city engineering staff, it’s OK to have up to 5,000 vehicles on these designated collector roads, which are essentially our residential streets. A new contractor parking lot that the city approved, which quadrupled parking to 500 stalls at the Parkland refinery, has only added to this chaos. How can you do this to us? The root of the problem is through-traffic (ratrunners). And it’s not just our Burnaby neighbourhood that suffers. With a new transportation plan, the city can implement city-wide traffic calming measures to finally put Burnaby residents ahead of ratrunners. Goal 6: Connected Community even identifies “Reduce through-traffic impacts.” Vancouver did it in east Vancouver between Victoria and Nanaimo from Hastings to East First. It can be done here. You just need the will to do it. Peter Cech, Burnaby

Burnaby working to protect archeological sites in city Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

The City of Burnaby wants to do more to protect archeological sites from development. City council has unanimously approved $25,000 for a consultant to help the city develop an archeology policy framework to protect known archeological sites within its borders and any that may be rediscovered in the future. Burnaby already complies with provincial laws around protecting and preserving archeological sites, according to a report to council Nov. 9, but the rapid pace of development along with growing government-to-government relationships with local First Nations have prompted the need for an

“enhanced, streamlined” approach. There are 21 known archeological sites in Burnaby, more than half on city land, but their exact location is kept under wraps by the province’s archeology branch, according to Burnaby heritage planner Lisa Codd. “We have to be quite general when talking about where these sites are because letting the public know exact locations can put those sites at risk,” she said. Generally, however, the sites are located along the shores of Burrard Inlet, at Deer Lake and along the Brunette River, according to Codd. Under provincial legislation, if a private developer or the city wants to do work within 50 metres of

any of those sites, the city won’t issue the necessary permits until the developer or city has gone through the archeology branch. While that helps to protect known sites, however, it does nothing to protect sites that are currently unknown, according to Codd.The policy framework would be designed to protect as-yet unknown sites through a “predictive model of archeological management” by taking into account areas where there is potential for a site. One tool to accomplish that is an archeological overview assessment, a study of a defined area by an expert in consultation with local First Nations. On Monday, city council approved $35,000 to fund such a study at Barnet Marine Park.

Don’t trash your holiday batteries! To ensure long-awaited toys can be powered up as soon as they’re opened and continue running through the holiday season, batteries are at the top of many parents’ holiday shopping lists. But when those batteries need replacing, it’s important they aren’t tossed in the garbage or stored in a junk drawer. “Many popular holiday gifts require batteries,” says Joe Zenobio, president, Call2Recycle Canada, Inc. “However, batteries can contain toxic materials, so if used batteries are thrown in the garbage and end up in landfill they can harm wildlife and the environment. When your holiday batteries reach the end of their lives, it is important you responsibly recycle them.” When batteries are responsibly recycled, their valuable materials can be used as input for the manufacturing of new products like bicycles, stainless steel water bottles, pens, small appliances and even sunscreen. Battery recycling is easy and convenient thanks to Call2Recycle ®, British Columbia’s provincially regulated, not-for-profit battery recycling program. Call2Recycle is dedicated to the safe collection and recycling of used batteries, collecting batteries at hundreds of locations across British Columbia, including many leading retailers such as Staples, The Home Depot, London Drugs, Lowes/RONA, Canadian Tire and Best Buy. To find the most convenient drop-off location for you, visit call2recycle.ca/locator and type in your postal code.

Use a non-metal container.

When you replace the batteries from remotes, game consoles, headsets and other toys and household items, place each used battery in a clear, sealable plastic bag and then store the bags in a non-metal storage container. Instructions on how to safely protect and store your batteries until you’re ready to recycle them can be found at call2recycle.ca/protect-store-recycle. When you have collected a handful of batteries ready for recycling, take them with you the next time you’re out doing errands, and drop them at a convenient Call2Recycle collection location.

Artsnow Virtual art exhibition explores life with dementia Exhibition was slated to take place at North Burnaby Neighbourhood House until COVID intervened The resilience and artistry of people living with dementia is on display in a new virtual exhibition. In There Out Here: Art Making Space to Live Well With Dementia is an online exhibit featuring the work of people living with dementia and their care partners.The exhibition includes a short documentary, a collection of art in a variety of genres, and several interactive art-making opportunities for viewers to create and upload their own pieces. The made-in-Burnaby exhibition was initially slated to be an in-person installation of work developed at North Burnaby Neighbourhood House, but it moved online in the wake of COVID-19. The show shares some of what was learned through a three-year UBC research project, led by associate professor Susan Cox and postdoctoral fellow Gloria Puurveen at the university’s W. MauriceYoung Centre for Applied Ethics. With funding from the Canadian Institutes of Health Research, the Alzheimer Society of Canada and the Michael Smith Foundation for Health Research, the research team started the project.They were curious about how care planning

along the dementia journey could become a more empowering and supportive process that actively reflected a person’s unique life experience – their relationships, values and identity. “No one wanted to be treated like a number or a diagnosis,” a press release explains. “They had experiences unique to them, relational complexities, and ideological or spiritual differences they wanted considered as part of their end-of-life path.” The researchers worked to infuse traditional research methods with more creative opportunities to listen to the voices of people living with dementia and to amplify their insights and perspectives. They started the project with face-to-face inter-

views with people living with dementia and their care partners.Those conversations then led into a series of arts-based workshops exploring the meaning of living well with dementia – until, halfway through that stage of the research, the COVID-19 pandemic hit. The research team regrouped, packaged up and sent out all the materials participants would need to create art, and organized Zoom workshops that kept the group connected and engaged. Finally, working with the participants, the team brought together the online exhibition. The featured art speaks directly to what participants want the world to know about their dementia journey.

Citynow Mayor urges residents to help bend the COVID curve Dustin Godfrey

dgodfrey@burnabynow.com

Burnaby’s mayor is urging residents to take action to curb the spread of COVID-19 as the pandemic’s second wave is bringing vastly increasing numbers of new cases of the virus.

Mayor Mike Hurley sent the message in a video statement published to social media on Wednesday, just a few days after provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry introduced a two-week period of strict new rules around social gatherings. The rules, which bar gath-

erings beyond people’s direct households, came as new cases of the virus – in the 300-a-day range just a few weeks ago – rose to 700 this week. “It is important that we all familiarize ourselves with these orders (from Henry). … Our community has proven that we

can adapt quickly to curb the spread of COVID-19, and I know that we can do that again,” Hurley said. “Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, Burnaby residents have shown resilience and responsibility by helping to bend the curve and reduce the spread of this vi-

rus. Our efforts as a community saved lives and ensured that we had a pathway to safely reopen businesses and services in our city.” Hurley urged residents to “be vigilant” about physical distancing, to wear masks where distancing is not possible, to wash

hands “thoroughly and often” and to “be responsible” about their activities. “Now is not the time for social gatherings. But it is more important than ever for us to check in on our loved ones. Give them a call, send a text or reach out on social media,” Hurley said.

Citynow City manager retiring after 30 years Dustin Godfrey

dgodfrey@burnabynow.com

Burnaby’s top bureaucrat is planning to retire next year after “30 wonderful years” at city hall. City manager Lambert Chu made the announcement last week in an email to city staff, saying he will be stepping away from the role by the end of February 2021 to “move on to the next chapter – retirement.” “Writing this message

is an important step in my journey to retirement. I want to acknowledge and thank everyone who I had worked with and had supported me throughout my career in Burnaby,” Chu wrote in his announcement to staff, which was shared with the NOW. “I walked into Burnaby City Hall 30 years ago looking for new challenges in my career, and I was well rewarded in kindness and friendship and had found many remark-

able challenges. It has been an amazing journey for the entire time of my career in Burnaby.” Chu, hired in 1990 as deputy director of engineering, rose up through the ranks of city hall. He became the director of engineering in 2007 before

being named the deputy city manager in 2012. After preceding city manager Bob Moncur retired in February 2016, Chu became acting city manager for a few months before being named to the top spot in May that year.

Citynow It’s another billion-dollar year for construction in Burnaby

Construction approved in Burnaby has exceeded $1.06 billion this year, according to a report to council, despite physical distancing restrictions spurred by the COVID-19

pandemic. The first 10 months of construction marks one of the busiest construction years on record, already exceeding the year-end values of approved build-

ing permits in 2015 to 2017, which ranged from $819.5 million to $1.05 billion.

But this year’s construction values are spread out over fewer overall projects – 851 building per-

Communitynow Help ﬁll a stocking for a senior London Drugs stores in Burnaby have brought back their Stocking Stuffers for Seniors holiday donation drive. Supporters can visit their local London Drugs between now and Dec. 16 to choose a tag from the tree that contains the wish list, or everyday essentials, of a local senior. Once they have purchased the items and dropped them off at the store, the gifts will be safely delivered to the seniors before Christmas.

Each London Drugs will have information posted next to the Stocking Stuffers for Seniors tree with information on how the participating care homes will be managing the gifts to keep their seniors safe. In many instances, donated gifts will be isolated for 72 hours prior to internal distribution to the seniors. “This year, it’s more important than ever to show seniors that they are not alone,” said Jimmy Mor-

rison, community relations supervisor, Operation Friendship Seniors Society, in a news release. “Just the act of receiving a gift helps to significantly improve the spirits of a senior and can have lasting mental and physical health benefits.” Morrison says the society is relying heavily on Canadians to support its seniors, with many annual programs being cancelled or postponed due to the pandemic.

HEALTH

Your body is a large sponge, time to detoxify it

Dana Gale Owner of Dangerous Curves Body Boutique More than ever, our bodies are toxic and need to be cleansed. Toxins are chemicals and preservatives that are accumulated in our body through the air we breathe, the foods we eat, the liquids we drink, and medications we take. Our skin is the largest organ and daily use of cosmetics, perfume, and lotions are all absorbed through the pores in our skin. Normally, our bodies are designed to flush these toxins out through the liver and kidneys. But the amount we take in is much greater than what our bodies can safely process, so the excess toxins end up being stored in the interstitial fluid where they are then absorbed by the surrounding fat cells. The fat cells in our body are surrounded by a liquid called interstitial fluid that both nourishes it and provides it with an effective waste

system. This fluid can accumulate in excess within the cells and between the cells because of a lack of exercise, aging, stress hormones, diets high in salt and sugar, and a buildup of toxins. When that fluid becomes filled with toxins, it thickens and hardens the connective tissue just below the skin and creates a dimpling effect that can be seen on the outside of the body as cellulite. Our Body wraps contain ingredients designed to draw out these excess fluids and toxins while restoring nutrients to the body. Using our proprietary all natural mineral solution, along with our exclusive certified wrapping techniques, you will be wrapped in mineral drenched bandages, and then “basted” several times during the 60 minute wrap. Our wraps are hydrating, saturating and nourishing the body with healthful vitamins and minerals. And unlike the other wraps on the market, our wraps are active wraps, which

means you do some light exercise for about an hour, such as lightly working out on a glider, bouncing on a mini-trampoline, & getting the circulation going in those targeted areas using our exclusive ExCellAerator. This helps to increase the circulation, enhance the results of the wrap, and helps to build strength and stamina. Dangerous Curves Body Boutique is the ONLY salon in Greater Vancouver that has specialized in Suddenly Slender Body Wraps since 2001. We are a worldwide US franchise, founded in 1969 by Victoria Morton. Our wraps have been featured on ELLEN, Tyra Banks, The View, Rachel Ray, E!, Lifestyles of the Rich & Famous, Entertainment Tonight, and numerous magazines to name only a few. Our wraps are so effective that nothing on the market can even come close. We guarantee 10 to 30 inch loss your 1st visit or your next one is free! (6-20 for men)

Dangerous Curves also offers Infrared Heat Therapy that burns over 600 calories in a 30 minute session. ProEllixe is equivalent to an hour and a half full body workout in just 10 minutes. VibroLight has the combination of the ProEllixe and laser lipolysis for local fat and cellulite. We have mastered the art of eyelash extensions since 2004. We use only 100% human hair Lash It! Eye Lash Extensions that are available in black or brown in a variety of

lengths and thickness to suit everyone’s preference. The Viora ReAction™ is the newest generation in body contouring, skin tightening & cellulite treatments. Unlike any other system on the market today, ReAction is powered by patented CORE technology which has the ability to deliver safe & effective treatments with superior treatment control, precision targeting & broader dermal penetration for maximum results in minimal time. -Advertorial-

ASK A DENTIST

Q A

How does the food I eat affect my teeth?

When you eat or drink starchy foods (bread, crackers, potato chips) and sugary foods (cookies, juice, carbonated soft drinks), you are also feeding the germs that cause dR. CHAntAL tHéRIAuLt tooth decay and gum disease in dEntISt your mouth. As the bacteria digest these foods, they produce acids that can breakdown the enamel in your teeth and cause decay. Fortunately, there are also foods that helps prevent plaque buildup and thereby help protect your teeth. Helpful foods include: lean proteins, ﬁber rich fruits and vegetables, as well as milk, cheese and plain yogurt. Timing also matters. When you do eat sugary foods, it’s better to eat them with your meals and limit between-meal snacks. But let’s be honest, we all eat sugary treats… even your dentist! But no matter what you eat, remember to brush twice a day and ﬂoss at night. 609 Sixth Street, New Westminster

Q A

Are Home Care Services right for you or someone you know? Unsure if your loved ones have a need for home care help, and what kind of help is available from a home health care company?

It can be difﬁcult to know who’s eligible for home care services. The simple answer is that home health care can help anyone from new moms to seniors, as well as adults who live with disabilities, are recovering from surgery or illness, or need at-home hospice care or palliative care. WEndY J SCOtt RN, BScN, MA

If your parent, relative or friend is starting to slow down, it might be time to talk to them about getting a little extra help around the house. This can be a difﬁcult conversation for seniors who may fear losing their independence, so be sure to let them know that home care services are designed to support older adults and keep them in control as they age. Whether you’re still weighing the pros and cons of home care services for yourself or a loved one, or you’re ready to hire a home health care worker right away, give us a call here at Nurse Next Door.

WESTERN COINS & STAMPS Jim Richardson

Our column a month ago was about how to tell which Canadian coins were silver. I mentioned using a magnet and said if the coins were non-magnetic that they were silver. Burnaby Now readers wanted to know if this can be used to detect silver USA coins. I am afraid that will not work. American coins are made with a copper centre which is nonmagnetic. All American dimes, quarters and halves from 1964 and older are 90% silver. American dollars have to be 1935 and older to be 90% silver. The next dollar coin did not come out until 1971 and was not silver. American halves from 1965 to 1970 had a copper centre but the outer layers were silver. These coins average at 40% silver. British, New Zealand and Australian silver coins also cannot be determined with a

magnet. All three of these countries nondecimal currency called Sterling. British silver coins are 92.5% silver from 1919 and older. From 1920 to 1946 they are 50% silver. New Zealand coins are 50% silver from 1935 (the ﬁrst year they issued coins) until 1946. Australia silver coins are 92.5% until 1946. From 1946 until decimalization in 1966, the coins were 50% silver. In 1966, Australia went decimal and issued a ﬁfty cent coin in 80% silver. Most European countries used silver coins up until the mid-1960’s. French and Netherland silver coins can be determined by the magnet test. We purchase all silver coins from around the world for either their silver value or their collector value. We pay the higher of the two values. P.S. We still have discounted postage for Christmas mailings.

Are you still having your sale of Royal Canadian mint product this Fall?

Yes, we are! Our sixth annual sale started on November 1st. All Royal Canadian mint product dated 2017 and older there is an additional JIM RICHARdSOn 25% off. For 2018 RCM product, there is 15% off and for 2019 RCM product, there is 10% off. This is on top of any items that are already marked down from the original issue price. Sometimes, this can lead up to 60% from the original price that the Canadian mint charged. We have had a lot of newer product arrive in and also had found a few boxes that had not been unpacked from our move three years ago. This has led to very nice amount of unusual mint product that has not been in our cases for a long time.

LOst GROSSER, Gertrude (Gertie) It is with deep sorrow that our family announces the passing of Gertrude (Gertie) Grosser on October 28, 2020, at the Madison Care Home in Coquitlam, after a long and wonderful life. Gertie is survived by her two daughters, Jacqueline Grosser and Angela Lange (Grosser), and her beloved granddaughter Amanda Grosser. She is predeceased by her parents, Anna and Erich in Wuppertal, Germany, her place of birth. Her love of helping others led to the creation of the SHARE Society in the Tri Cities area, which grew from a small clothing exchange started in her home in Coquitlam in 1972, to one of the most important social service agencies for families throughout the community. Today her legacy serves thousands of families. She also worked with young people at Tree and Leaf, a rehabilitation society, using her amazing people skills to help them learn life skills through their time working at the greenhouses. Her time working for the Coast Foundation was again helping those with challenges navigate life. Many will also remember her from the concession stands at Spanish Banks, and later, Third Beach, where the outdoor fireplace in winter and beautiful flowers in summer became a favorite place to stop, and she made many long-time friends there. Gertie was the recipient of the Citizen of the Year Award in 1973 (Coquitlam Chamber of Commerce), the Community Service Award in 1974 (District of Coquitlam), and Certificate of Merit in 1974 (Valley View Hospital). She was Founder and Honourary Chairperson for SHARE and an award was created in her honour: “The Gertie Grosser Award”, given to a member of SHARE each year for outstanding service to the community.

She had a huge sense of humour and unbound curiosity for life and the people in it. She made many friends all over the world and stayed in touch over the years. Sundays were spent at Lonsdale Quay listening to music, and she always met new people, who were often surprised by the little lady who walked up, smiled and said, “So, where are you from?” She loved babies and children and they seemed equally drawn to her. Music played a huge part in her life, dancing or singing to a song she loved, or listening to tapes in her car. Her dinners at the house are legendary…

BILODEAU, Dorothy (Dot) (Cuthbert) It is with sadness and so much love that we announce the passing of our Wife, Mother, Grandmother, Auntie and best friend. Dorothy was born June 1, 1942 in Prince Albert, SK and died suddenly at home on 13 November 2020. She was predeceased by her parents, Maurice and Hazel Cuthbert and brother Del Cuthbert. She is survived by her loving husband and best friend of 58 years, Bernie Bilodeau, daughters Shelley and Lorene Bilodeau and her granddaughters Casey and Jordan Potter. Dorothy came to BC with her family in 1948 and they settled in New Westminster, BC where she eventually met husband Bernie. After starting their family, they made the move to Langley, BC where they raised their girls (and a number of animals) on their small farm. Dorothy loved gardening, spending time outdoors and with her Mom and Dad, who had moved to their home on the property. She spent an enormous amount of time in the service to others throughout the community - Girl Guides of Canada (Leader, Commissioner), Langley Figure Skating Club, Ballet Mom, Langley Community Music School Mom and was heavily involved in her girls’ school Parent Advisory Councils. Dorothy was a pillar of the community and loved everyone she had the privilege of spending time with. She will live forever in our hearts. A service to celebrate Dorothy’s life will be held when the Covid Crisis has passed. Kearney Surrey/Cloverdale 604-574-2603 www.kearneyfs.com

Gordon Keith Frenette passed away peacefully at Burnaby Hospital surrounded by his loving family. The youngest child of Alice Frenette, Gordon was born and spent his entire life in Vancouver and Burnaby. Gordon was a transit operator and drove routes throughout the Lower Mainland for over 30 years, without an accident. He was beloved by his regular riders, some of whom continued to recognize him even during his retirement. Gordon was predeceased by his wife, Elizabeth Frenette (2014). He is survived by his son, Derek and daughter−in−law, Kathryn Williamson; daughter, Erica Hazelton and son−in−law, Jim Ong; grandchildren, Abigail and Ghaiden Ong; and many other family members. Gordon was a resident at Mulberry Parc in Burnaby from 2014 to the present and leaves many friends there. A celebration of life attended by close family and friends will be held after the pandemic.
