Students raise cash for Ukraine Cornelia Naylor
cnaylor@burnabynow.com
Students at a Burnaby elementary school donated generously for a good cause this month — and for a chance to bean their teachers with water balloons. Seaforth Elementary School’s Grade 7 student leadership club thought up the idea of selling tickets to raise money for the Red Cross’s humanitarian appeal for Ukraine. In exchange for the tickets, students would be allowed to hurl water balloons at teachers. More than 20 teachers and staff agreed to submit to the ordeal for a good cause. Continued on page 3

SFU prof gets 30 days in jail for pipeline protest Cornelia Naylor
cnaylor@burnabynow.com
A Simon Fraser University professor “made his point” when he broke a court order and sat in a tree at a Burnaby
Trans Mountain pipeline worksite for three days last year — but now the court has responded. That was how B.C. Supreme Court Justice Shelley Fitzpatrick put the case of Dr.Tim Takaro on
Wednesday morning before sentencing him to 30 days in jail. Takaro had pleaded guilty to criminal contempt of court in relation to events between Nov. 23 and Nov. 26, 2021.
‘ABOMINATION’ On the morning of Nov. 23,Trans Mountain security personnel spotted a tent suspended about 100 feet up in a tree over a designated Trans Mountain worksite on the south-
ern corner of Lougheed Highway and Gaglardi Way, according to agreed facts read out on Monday. Takaro, who opposes the expansion as a threat to health and the environment, was warned he was
breaking a court order, but Takaro stayed in the tree until Nov. 26, when tactical officers reached him with a bucket lift and lowered him to the ground. Continued on page 3

Driver survives overpass plunge
‘Super super lucky’ woman escapes with non-life-threatening injuries after crash
Cameron students raise $6,000
Cornelia Naylor
Continued from page 1
cnaylor@burnabynow.com
A 49-year-old woman is lucky to have escaped with non-life-threatening injuries after her SUV plunged off a Highway 1 overpass in Burnaby lastThursday. Emergency crews were called to the Grandview off-ramp at about 8:15 p.m. on June 9 for reports of a single-vehicle crash, according to assistant fire Chief Darcy Robinson. They found a smashed SUV in the grassy median in the middle of theTransCanada Highway. “The vehicle had gone through the guardrail nose first onto the highway below into the grass median and then back onto its tires,” Robinson told the NOW. Firefighters didn’t need to extricate the female driver, he said, but she was

Eastbound traffic on the highway was backed up for some time, as crews shut down all eastbound lanes.

factors, but they haven’t ruled out speed or rain as contributing to the incident.
Man sentenced for crash that injured teen Cornelia Naylor
cnaylor@burnabynow.com
A Quebec man charged with drunk driving and criminal negligence in a dramatic rollover crash that seriously injured a teenager in Burnaby in June 2020 has been
handed a two-year jail sentence and two years of probation after pleading guilty to criminal negligence causing bodily harm. Moussa Daoui, 33, was sentenced May 30 in Vancouver provincial court in connection with the inci-
dent. Burnaby RCMP responded to a report of a single-vehicle rollover at Gilmore Avenue and Halifax Street at about 1 a.m. on June 5, 2020. Upon arrival, officers found an unconscious 18-year-old woman. Police
said the suspect driver had fled the scene, but officers located him nearby and arrested him. Nearly a year later, in May 2021, Daoui was charged with failing to stop after an accident resulting in bodily harm, impaired driving causing
bodily harm and criminal negligence causing bodily harm. But Daoui skipped his first court appearance on June 22, 2021. Police finally caught up with Daoui in Laval, Que. in January, and he was shipped back to B.C.
By the end of last week, the school had raised $2,000. On Friday, the whole school gathered outside to watch teachers and other staff get pelted. In the spirit of fairness, the Grade 7s, too, lined up and allowed some of the school’s youngest students to squirt them with toy water pumps. Meanwhile, entrepreneurial students at Cameron Elementary School used a different method to raise thousands of dollars for Ukraine. Grade 5/6 teacher Sarah Larsen said the Russian invasion of Ukraine has been a topic close to many Cameron families’ hearts since some are refugees themselves and others originate from Eastern Europe, where many Ukrainian refugees are relocating. Larsen’s class launched a regular recess fundraiser every Thursday to help, selling juice, chips, lollipops, ice cream and crafts. To date, the Cameron students have raised nearly $4,000 through their sales and another $2,000 in online donations.
Videos, news stories were aggravating factors: prosecutor Continued from page 1 While he was in the tree, he posted two videos on Facebook, including one in which he called the $21.4-billion pipeline expansion an “abomination.” “Disruption is required when the government is not acting in the best interest of the people,” he
said in one video played in court.
PUBLIC CONTEMPT Crown prosecutor Ellen Leno noted Takaro had broken a June 2018 B.C. Supreme Court injunction by violating a five-metre injunction zone around Trans Mountain worksites and by impeding TMX
work. She called for a 30-day jail sentence, citing the need to deter others from ignoring court orders. As aggravating factors, she noted the public way in which Takaro had broken the injunction, including the Facebook videos, large signs hanging from his tree sit and news sto-
ries. She also noted Takaro’s methods had been sophisticated and designed to cause longer TMX delays.
HEART PROBLEM But defence lawyer Neal Chantler argued Takaro should be allowed to serve his sentence in the community because he has a
heart problem that could cause a heart attack if he were sent to jail. Chantler noted Takaro had no criminal record and had never been charged with contempt before, although he had been involved in an earlier tree sit in Burnaby in September that saw a police response.
In the end, however, Fitzpatrick ruled a 30-day jail sentence was appropriate. She called the offence “serious,” noting it was public, designed to cause maximum delays and happened three years after the court order was first put in place.

Opinion now MY VIEW KEITH BALDREY
Renewal rides on more than a name
A political party with the word “liberal” in its official name made its first appearance on a ballot in a B.C. election way back in 1903. It now appears that word will likely not be on the ballot in the next scheduled election (set for the fall of 2024), as the BC Liberal Party has launched a process aimed at changing its name and jettisoning the political term “liberal,” which some in the party think is a drag on its fortunes. It is entirely unclear what the next party name will look like. One thing is clear: the party cannot call itself the “B.C. Party,” as that name was previously registered with Elections BC and 10 years must lapse before it can be used by another entity. Some other words that have been part of other provincial party names are also unlikely to be allowed in the new party name. They include: action, vision, citizens, first, heritage, progressive and reform. However, despite a recent boost in its performance in the legislature (see last week’s column) the problems facing the BC Liberals run much deeper than sporting a different name on the ballot. Having the word “Liberals” in the name did not stop the party from drifting rightward over the past 10 years or so.The ideological makeup of the current caucus is decidedly more conservative than it was during Gordon Campbell’s term in government. During Campbell’s terms, liberals like George Abbott, Christy Clark, Colin Hansen, Gord Hogg,Terry Lake and others dominated the government, along with conservatives such as Rich Coleman, Bill Bennett and Kevin Falcon. The party likes to call
itself the “free enterprise coalition,” but it has become less and less of a coalition, as one side of the spectrum now dominates the party. The party’s conservative bent is reflected in the geographic breakdown of where the party won seats in the 2020 election. It lost eight seats in Metro Vancouver to the BC NDP, and the party has been largely pushed out of Metro Vancouver and into more conservative-friendly regions of the province such as the Interior and the North. It can be argued the BC Liberals lost those seats not because of their name but because of a host of other issues, from their drift to the right to a lack of diversity to 16 years of accumulating political baggage. Issues like money laundering, corporate funding and housing unaffordability first began to tarnish the party in the 2017 election. At the federal level, the word “liberals” is hardly a negative one in riding-rich Metro Vancouver.Voters in that region opted for the federal Liberal Party candidate in 15 of Metro’s 24 ridings in the 2021 election. Perhaps a name change will indeed improve the BC Liberals’ political fortunes. However, a new name does not automatically reconnect the party to the electorate. New party leader Kevin Falcon, who advocated for changing the party’s name, knows the party has to go through a renewal process on all kinds of fronts. Improved ethnic diversity, gender equity and a broader appeal to younger voters are the key to electoral success.The party’s name? Not so much. Keith Baldrey is chief political reporter for Global BC.

Victims suffer sword wounds
A fisfight near the Metrotown SkyTrain station escalated quickly after one of the participants pulled out a samurai sword.The incident began when two groups of young males began hurling insults at each other.The trash-talking turned into a fight, and an 18-year-old in one of the groups pulled out his new sword and began slashing. Police said one victim would likely need plastic surgery for sword cuts. Another suffered minor cuts. The 18-year-old faced charges of assault with a weapon and aggravated assault.

Opinionnow HandyDart must keep up with aging population Editor: The TransLink Mayors’ Council and Board has met to review TransLink’s 10-year plan. The plan asserts that “everyone who lives, works, and plays here, enjoys a broad range of quality transportation choices.” That simply isn’t true for many lower-income seniors and people with disabilities. TransLink provided 22 per cent less HandyDART service per senior in 2019 than in 2008, before COVID forced many HandyDART riders into self isolation. This year the oldest baby boomers turn 77, and disability increases greatly after age 70. Providing the services older seniors need over the next decade will be a defining social and political challenge. HandyDART service must increase to catch up and keep up with our aging population. The climate crisis is another crucial challenge, and the transit improvements seniors and people with disabilities need are also essential climate solutions. With provincial, federal, and regional funds, BC Transit Victoria is building a new permanent HandyDART centre to support a 100% electric HandyDART fleet. In contrast,
TransLink has excluded HandyDART from their Low Carbon Fleet Transition Plan. Metro Vancouver’s mayors must push for federal and provincial funding for permanent operations centres with charging stations for electric HandyDART vehicles. This would shift a significant expense from TransLink’s operating budget (supported by municipal property taxes and fares) to a capital expense largely covered with federal and provincial funds. The move to quiet and clean electric vehicles would benefit HandyDART riders and TransLink’s bottom line. TransLink has contracted out management of HandyDART to successive bidders. This costs more, as companies siphon off a percentage to profits. The chaos of changing management also makes it hard to retain experienced employees, maintain positive changes that benefit service and makes switching to electric vehicles much harder. Bringing HandyDART in -house would alleviate all these problems. Those that require HandyDART deserve stability, safe service, and clean electric vehicles. Our mayors must show leadership in providing quality transportation choices for all and in responding to the climate crisis. Mark Beeching, president, Amalgamated Transit Union local 1724

CityConnect Burnaby’s Official Community Plan Let’s plan our city together – what do you value in your city? What would you prioritize as the city grows?
What is the process? The OCP project is a multi-year process with 4 phases.
What is an Official Community Plan (OCP)? An OCP is a legally required City bylaw that enables City Council to guide and manage where, when and how future growth in Burnaby will be accommodated.
Why do we need a new OCP? Burnaby is undergoing change; the City wants to respond in a way that meets the emerging and contemporary needs of Burnaby residents and the broader community – both present and future. A new OCP will define what Burnaby’s priorities are and how future sustainability, land use, and community investments influence growth.
Phase 1: Raise awareness and invite the community to learn more about the project.
Phase 3: Set the strategic direction and policies to achieve the draft vision, goals and objectives.
Phase 2: Prepare a vision for the future of the City and prepare growth scenario options.
Phase 4: Engage and confirm that the draft OCP reflects the values and priorities of the community.

We’d like to hear what you think!

Community now City OKs $50M for two ‘sister fire halls’ by 2023 Burnaby has sped up construction of SFU and Duthie Avenue fire stations under a new project model for 2020 to 2022. The two projects were duly added to the city’s 2020-2024 financial plan, with $20 million earmarked for Station 8 in 2022 and $18 million earmarked for Station 4 in 2022. But making it into the financial plan hadn’t done much for Station 4 before. The city’s five-year financial plans have included funding for the design and construction of a new Duthie fire hall every year since 2008 – and yet the 66-year-old station still stands. The SFU project showed some signs of life. It was added to a list of major civic projects that staff updates the city’s financial management committee on every month, but its completion date was eventually kicked to 2024. And the Duthie station never even made it into the monthly updates. Then, boom. Last month city council awarded a $50-million contract to a team scheduled to get both projects done by next fall.

After decades of waiting, Burnaby citizens are poised to get a pair of shiny new “sister fire halls” in a hurry thanks to a new approach the city is taking to get the projects done. LONG TIME COMING City officials have known about the need for a fire hall on top of Burnaby Mountain and a new fire hall at Duthie Avenue (just west of the Burnaby Mountain Golf Course) for at least 20 years. A 2002 report on the needs of the fire department listed an SFU Burnaby Mountain station as a priority, saying the university was one of three areas in the city where fire department response times “consistently exceeded the desired standard.” And that was before shovels even hit the ground on the UniverCity development, which has since brought thousands of people to live at the top of the mountain. The same 2002 study found the Duthie Avenue fire station, built in 1956, was already only “marginally adequate for current operations” and in need of “significant upgrading and additional space in the future.”
INTEGRATED PROJECT DELIVERY Here’s what happened. Facing pressure from council to speed up delivery of the fire halls, staff

Community now New fire hall construction set to start in September
Continued from page 11 took a step back and re-evaluated their traditional approach to getting big projects built. In November,Tim Van Driel told the financial management committee that staff was exploring two models for the fire halls: “design build” or “integrated project delivery.” “What’s the shorter one?” Coun. Pietro Calendino asked.The model they embraced was “integrated project delivery.” For traditional “design, bid, build projects,” the city put its vision on paper in “excruciating detail” with a designer before sending them out for bids from builders, according to James Lota, the city’s
general manager of lands and facilities. Councillors on the financial management committee have long complained about how long major projects are stuck in the design stage. But IPD cuts down that time because the designer, builder and all the other trade partners are all hired at the same time, Lota said. “You’re developing the vision with the people who are helping you build it,” he said.
UPPER LIMIT OF RISK The fire stations will be the city’s first IPD projects. Before the $50.4-million contract was approved by council on May 30, the city worked with a consultant to help make sure the team it hired would be up

to the task and the project budget would be good value for tax dollars, according to Lota. IPD isn’t good for “cost certainty” before construction, but it does define an “upper limit,” according to Lota. ‘SISTER FIRE HALLS’ Construction on the new fire halls, priced at $24 million apiece, will begin in September, and both projects are expected to be finished next year. The SFU station is going in at the east end of Discovery Park, at the corner ofTower Road and University Drive. The site for the new Station 4 has not yet been announced, but it will not be built on the Duthie site, according to the city.
If you have strong opinions on the 4.5-acre triangular wedge of land at the corner of Kingsway and Edmonds, the city wants to hear from you. On June 21 and 23, the City of Burnaby will host virtual information sessions on Zoom as part of the public consultation for the publicly owned land at the heart of Edmonds Town Centre. The plan under review includes over 1,400 purpose-built rentals at varying rates, about 1,000 market strata residential units, a variety of commercial spaces, public amenities and a public plaza. That includes five new towers on the land, which is jointly owned by BC

Hats Off Day
SATURDAY, JUNE 18, 2022 10:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
No parade for 2022
Family fun: The Hats Off Day Parade, seen above in 2019 and at top right in 2018, is always a hit with festivalgoers at Hats Off Day. There will be no parade at this year’s festivities, but never fear — organizers plan to bring it back for the 2023 edition of the festival. PHOTOS JENNIFER GAUTHIER/NOW FILES
Hats Off Day festivalgoers, take note:There won’t be a parade at this year’s celebration. Festival organizers have suspended the parade for 2022, largely because of the earlier uncertainty surrounding health restrictions and the length of time it takes to pre-
pare for the parade — both for the organizers and for the participants. If the parade has always been a highlight for your family, don’t fret: the Hats Off Day committee has every intention of reviving the colourful parade for the festival’s 2023 edition.

Progress gives reason for optimism on National Indigenous Peoples Day Mark Falkenberg
mwfalkenberg@burnabynow.com
With Canada marking National Indigenous History month – and National Indigenous Peoples Day on June 21 – it’s worth noting how much has been done in recent years to move toward fulfilling the goals of the First Nations of this country – and what a long path stretches ahead. In B.C., of course, that path is tangled with the deep thicket of unresolved land claims, with all but roughly five per cent of the province comprising land to which Indigenous people never legally signed away their rights. Yet over the past decade, landmark court decisions have opened the doors to change for the better. While not initially successful for the Wet’suwet’en hereditary chiefs and their Gitxsan neighbours who launched it, the lawsuit that brought about the Delgamuukw decision of 1997 helped define the concept of Aboriginal title.That concept was reinforced in 2014 by the Supreme Court of Canada in Tsilhqot’in Nation v. British Columbia, which affirmed the rights of First Nations by recog-
nizing the principle of Aboriginal title in Canada. Recently, many Indigenous leaders have welcomed the B.C. government’s move to come up with new laws aligned with the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP). In 2019, B.C. became the first province in Canada to formally recognize the UN declaration in law. More recently it introduced the Declaration Act Action Plan, which sets out steps for the province to try to improve the lives of Indigenous Peoples under UNDRIP. Quoted in APTN News, Grand Chief Stewart Phillip, of the Union of British Columbia Indian Chiefs, said the Declaration Act was an important step, but cautioned that is more a beginning than an end. “Two years ago, the seeds of change were sown – a future life with the promises of true transformation and reconciliation became possible with

as PADS is working towards reducing its turn-in age to between 15 and 18 months. The puppy must also be able to go to work or school with the raiser. Meanwhile, sitters help provide the continuity of training and socialization when the main puppy raiser is unavailable. PADS says a puppy sitter could be used because of travel plans that don’t include the puppy, when the raiser needs a break, to provide the puppy with a different experience or for many other reasons. Sitters have to be able to puppy sit for at least eight days per month and in blocks of at least three days at a time. For more information, including how to become a volunteer, you’re encouraged to visit www. pads.ca.

In “urgent need” of volunteers. That’s a Burnaby-based society’s public plea in searching for 20 new volunteer puppy raisers and at least 15 new puppy sitters for its West Coast region. While there are numerous types of certified assistance dogs, the Pacific Assistance Dogs Society (PADS) breeds, raises and trains certified assistance dogs that assist with mobility and PTSD. As well, it trains hearing dogs that help those with physical disabilities other than blindness. “The arrival of several litters of puppies in the last few weeks, combined with many of our dedicated PADS volunteers finally getting to go
on long-delayed travels, means that we are in need of lots of new people to join in our mission of raising puppies and changing lives,” reads a PADS release. Puppy raisers are volunteers that take young puppies and shape them into capable assistance dog trainees ready to enter advanced training. The subjects focus on three areas of training: skills (such as walking on a loose leash and sitting), manners (settling well, appropriate household behaviour) and socialization (having confidence in the world around them). PADS says puppy raising is a full-time volunteer opportunity with weekly instruction to help the raiser and puppy grow their skills. The society notes it’s a two-year commitment

Simon Fraser University has jumped up three spots to become the eighth top-ranked university in Canada this year, according to Times
this year. SFU moved up 25 places to land in the top 300 universities worldwide in this year’s Quacquarelli Symonds (QS) World University Rankings, up from its top-400 placement last year.
The university maintains its position as 13th in Canada in the QS ranking. “I am so proud of our students, faculty and staff who, despite facing enormous challenges over the past year, have continued
to champion sustainability in everything we do,” said SFU president Joy Johnson in a statement. Maclean’s magazine gave SFU the nod as Canada’s top comprehensive university in 2021, for the 12th time in the past 13
years. In 2022, SFU tied with the University of Victoria for the top spot. The magazine cited SFU’s commitment to sustainability as one of the university’s key strengths.

jfedigan@burnabynow.com
Burnaby Lakers lacrosse returned to Bill Copeland Arena on Friday (June 10), but it wasn’t the ending they were hoping for. A back-and-forth game finished in a tough 8-7 loss to the Salmonbellies, not long after the Lakers beat New West 13-11 earlier this month. Then, on Sunday (June 12), the Lakers’ losing streak hit three games with a 17-10 loss to the Maple Ridge Burrards. Burnaby sits last in the Western League Association (WLA) with a 1-4 record and a .200 win percentage through the first five games of the 2022 season. Burnaby launched its latest WLA campaign — B.C.’s top lacrosse league — on May 28, suffering a one-goal loss (1413) against the Coquitlam Adanacs at the Poirier Sport and Leisure Complex. In an earlier interview with the NOW, general manager Kevin Hill said despite the two-year stoppage caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the club’s management expectations for the team were no different than any other season.

movement” which he expects to result in a fastpaced season. “I know the Lakers will be playing a fast style of game, and with the group
of players we have assembled, our future is bright.” At 16 points each, forwards Toron Eccleston (nine goals and seven assists in five games) and
Ryan Martel (seven goals and nine assists in three games) lead the Lakers in scoring to date.

Probate made easy. McMULLEN, Dagney It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of our mother, Dagney McMullen on June 14, 2022, at Royal Columbian Hospital. Dagney was born on April 22, 1928, in Langley, BC. Dagney was a serious child, one of two daughters born to hard-working immigrant parents from Sweden. She attended Otter Road School and worked at Otter Co-op, where she met the love of her life, Harold. She and Harold raised two young daughters at their home in Burnaby, Lougheed area. Dagney was a dedicated mother and homemaker. Her gardens were large and bountiful. She climbed ladders to pick fruit and also to tackle paint jobs. She had great skill in intricate sewing and in making jams and applesauce. In 1961, she suffered traumatic injuries in a car accident on the family’s vacation. She unexpectedly survived and was determined to walk again - a process over many years and surgeries. She achieved her goal and walked, although with difficulty. In 1965, the family moved to New Westminster, near Woodward’s, where Harold worked for more than 30 years. Dagney loved being around her grandchildren and other children, volunteering at Herbert Spencer Elementary. She lovingly took on the role of “Gramma” for many - both children and adults. She also enjoyed fellowship at Queens Avenue United Church. Always creative, in later years Dagney enjoyed first attempts at water colours and acrylic painting. She loved animals, Hallmark movies, and doing puzzles with her family. She was predeceased by her adoring husband Harold and her eldest daughter Janice Nicholson (Wayne). Dagney passed peacefully in hospital, after the care and vigil of her loving granddaughter Monique Green (Jeff). She is also survived by her devoted daughter, Wanda Gendron (Garth), grandsons Adrien Nicholson (Krista), Roger Gendron, Randy Nicholson (Drealle), Owen Gendron, and great-grandchildren Breanne, Paige, Shya and Jase. We gratefully acknowledge the excellent care provided by New Westminster first responders, and the nurses, doctors, and support staff at RCH emergency and the 6th floor units. The family will be having a small celebration of life in their yard for friends and family early in the summer. In lieu of flowers (which her cat, Lucky, will unwisely eat), please consider making a donation to BC Women’s Health Foundation in her memory.
