The Lower Mainland Ethiopian community rallied in Burnaby this week to support the families of two teens killed after their

car collided with another vehicle reportedly fleeing from police. On Monday, hundreds of people gathered on 10th Avenue near Sixth Street where the smashedToyota Yaris occupied byVancouv-

er’s Samir Olyad Suleiman Ali, 18, and Burnaby’s Yabsrat HabtamuYtatek, 17, had come to rest after the deadly collision at about 11 p.m. on July 26. The pair were coming home from a soccer prac-

tice in NewWestminster. “We all are saddened; we all are heartbroken,” Jemal Kurtu, a close friend of the Ali family, said to the crowd. Both youths were firstborn sons of large families,

and Kurtu described them as leaders in the Ethiopian community to which they both belonged. Ytatek came to Canada with his family as a refugee via Somalia eight years ago. He was preparing to en-

Police watchdog probes crash that killed teens

Investigators looking into deaths of Samir Olyad Suleiman Ali, 18, and Yabsrat HabtamuYtatek, 17 Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

B.C.’s police watchdog is investigating a crash on the Burnaby-New Westminster boundary that took the lives of Vancouver resident Samir Olyad Suleiman Ali, 18, and Burnaby’sYabsrat HabtamuYtatek, 17, last Tuesday. At around 11 p.m., a Metro Vancouver Transit Police officer tried to conduct a traffic stop on a vehicle that allegedly took off “at a high rate of speed,” according to a transit police news release the following day.

Police didn’t say what prompted the attempted traffic stop. The suspect vehicle was then located on fire a short time later at the intersection of 10th Avenue and Sixth Street after colliding with another vehicle, police said. The occupants in the other vehicle, since identified by friends and family as Ali andYtatek, were taken to hospital in critical condition but died of their injuries, according to the release. The male driver and female passenger from the suspect vehicle were arrested at the scene but

later released on conditions, including a curfew and a promise to appear in court in November. They face possible charges of prohibited driving, dangerous operation of a motor vehicle causing death and flight from police, according to police. The Independent Investigations Office, which investigates police-involved incidents that result in death or serious harm, has been called in. Anyone who witnessed the incident or might have dashcam footage of it is asked to contact Metro Vancouver Transit Police at 604-515-8300.

Community gathers to support families

A collision involving a minibus, an Amazon delivery van and another vehicle sent one man to hospital and snarled traffic on Lougheed Highway Tuesday. The collision happened shortly before 10 a.m. at the intersection of Lougheed Highway and Brighton Avenue-Production Way, right beside the Production Way-University SkyTrain station. An Amazon van with a smashed front end came to rest in a westbound lane, while a minibus ended up in the far eastbound lane after colliding with a traffic light pole. Another damaged vehicle, a car, also came to rest beside the minibus. A witness told the NOW the lone occupant of the bus had been the driver, who was taken to hospital. The occupants of the

Bal Dhillon, Byrne Creek’s community school coordinator, remembered the first time he metYtatek at the school. “Right away, I noticed he had a really big smile, and that smile lit up a room, any room he walked into,” Dhillon said at the vigil. Ali came to Canada with his family as a refugee via Kenya five years ago. He was the oldest of nine siblings and the “light and hope of the family,” according to Moges Seblehiwot, founder of Ethiopian Af-

Ali had earned a full scholarship to UBC and was preparing to study kinesiology in the fall, with plans to pursue graduate studies after that, according to Kurtu. “He was a guy who has a big goal. He was a symbol for all our kids,” Kurtu said. Seblehiwot said his group organized the vigil to support the families and show them “they’re not alone.” He encouraged people at the event to contribute to GoFundMe campaigns launched in the boys’ names. “We can’t reverse the situation,” Seblehiwot told the crowd. “We know we can’t get them back, but we can pray, we can help them in finance.They are in deep pain, they are in agony.”

CityConnect STAYING COOL, STAYING SAFE IN BURNABY The City of Burnaby is committed to helping residents stay safe during hot weather. When the temperature starts to climb as they did last week, we activate our Extreme Heat Operational Response Plan and provide options, tools and tips to help Burnaby residents stay healthy during extreme weather. In preparation for heat events, City staff conducted a widespread awareness campaign to ensure residents were ready for the heat – and were familiar with the resources available in Burnaby. Our actions include hosting open houses; coordinating with local nonproﬁts, seniors organizations and Fraser Health to ensure vulnerable people were informed about the resources in Burnaby; distributing thousands of postcards with information about Burnaby’s Cooling Centres, in multiple languages; encouraging Burnaby residents to sign up to receive emergency alerts through Alertable.ca; and conducting an extensive public awareness campaign utilizing our social platforms, local media and bus station ads to share information about our Cooling Centres. Burnaby’s Extreme Heat Operational Response Plan is a comprehensive approach to extreme heat events – but it takes a community-wide effort to ensure everyone is safe. Do your part by checking in on family, friends and neighbours, especially those who may be vulnerable or at-risk of heat related illnesses.

STAY COOL INDOORS

When Burnaby is expecting extreme heat, the City activates our four Cooling Centres. Escape the heat with comfortable seating, drinking water, washroom facilities, pay showers, Wi-Fi and electrical outlets. Cooling Centres are open 10 am to 10 pm during heat warning events. Everyone is welcome, including pets - just be sure to keep them on a leash, or in a cage or crate. » BONSOR RECREATION COMPLEX 6550 Bonsor Ave » CAMERON COMMUNITY CENTRE 9523 Cameron St » EDMONDS COMMUNITY CENTRE 7433 Edmonds St » EILEEN DAILLY LEISURE POOL & FITNESS CENTRE 240 Willingdon Ave

The City also supports two pop-up outdoor cooling stations, run by the Society to End Homelessness in Burnaby at Civic Square and Kensington Park.

WAYS TO COOL OFF AT HOME » Take a cool shower or bath, or ﬁll a bucket with room temperature water to soak your feet in. » Shut all doors and windows, and pull curtains to keep the sun out. » Open windows in the evening when the temperatures begin to cool down.

Farmers bristle at emissions targets

The agriculture industry is usually not in the news a lot, but that may be about to change. Food growers and their industrial associations — along with a couple of provincial governments — are up in arms over the federal government’s demand that emissions from fertilizer use must be reduced by 30 per cent by 2030. It is all part of the Trudeau government’s ambitious plan to cut greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by more than 40 per cent within eight years. Since the plan was first laid out in detail in March, the oil and gas and transportation sectors received the most attention when it came to gauging the plan’s impact. But now the agriculture industry is realizing the potential implications of the climate plan for its sector and so far, much of the response has been fairly negative. Some farmers say such a reduction can’t be done without a huge decline in the actual use of fertilizer, a development they say will lead to lower production of crops and food and higher prices for consumers. Huge amounts of fossil fuels are prevalent throughout agriculture — in the ground, in the many kinds of machines and equipment that are used, in the transport of food products, in the different agrichemicals that are regularly used, etc. — but for now fertilizer is getting all the attention. The governments of Saskatchewan and Ontario — two provinces with huge agriculture sectors — have both cried foul and fired off angry communiques at a recent conference of federal and provincial agriculture ministers.. The B.C. government’s position on climate change closely mirrors that of the federal Liberal government, so it is more sup-

portive of setting such targets when it comes to reducing emissions. B.C. Agriculture Minister Lana Popham recently told me it is worth trying to do things differently and she is confident the federal government will hit the pause button and make adjustments if the industry’s dire predictions start to become reality. She also points to some companies — such as B.C.-based Lucent Biosciences — that have developed alternative fertilizers that have far lower emissions, and farming operations that use changing technologies to reduce emissions, as good examples of doing things differently. “The old saying of ‘necessity is the mother of invention’ fits here,” she said. In many ways, the looming fight over fertilizer use mirrors tensions we will see start to develop in other industrial sectors, as reduction targets are made and different types of responses and actions begin to take hold. Then again, there is every chance many of these targets wither on the vine over time. Previous GHG targets set by Canada and other countries have fallen woefully short of meeting set timelines. It is also far from certain whether the public’s support for ambitious emission reduction targets will last. Rising inflation and its dramatic impact on the cost of living has undoubtedly overtaken concerns about climate change as a top-of-mind issue for the average voter. In the meantime, expect to hear a lot more grumbling from the agriculture sector — and other industrial sectors — as the implications that come from aggressively fighting climate change become clearer. Keith Baldrey is chief political reporter for Global BC.

Youths escape from detention

In October, four inmates at theWillingdonYouth Detention Centre in Burnaby’s Big Bend area escaped after a choking a guard. Five youths had attempted the escape, but only four — two 18-year-olds and two 17-year-olds — got away. “They confined and restrained a female security guard and were able to escape by that method,” a spokesperson said. “It’s obviously pretty upsetting.”The guard was treated in hospital and released. All the youths were eventually caught, but the last one wasn’t found until a month later.

Opinionnow Burnaby lacrosse reunion scores with generations of players Editor: Finally the old boys got together at the Confederation Park in Burnaby on July 21 for a Burnaby Lacrosse reunion. About 60 players from teams of the early 1960s up to teams in the ’80s attended the reunion, which was planned for 2020 but postponed a couple of years due to COVID-19. In December 2019 a group of Burnaby Lacrosse players attended the celebration of life for Burnaby lacrosse legend Sohen Gill (player, coach, manager, commissioner and many, many other positions through many years). We discussed how lucky we were to grow up in Burnaby in the ’60s and learn the game of lacrosse at the old Confederation Park Lacrosse Box that we found out recently will be demolished next year and replaced by a new outdoor covered lacrosse box as part of the Confederation Park Complex upgrade to proceed in 2023. At the Celebration of Life for Sohen a few of us from a 1968 Junior B team that met there, after circulating a team picture of that 1968 team, came up with the idea to hold a reunion for

We’re hearing g aid experts p Burnaby players from the mid-’60s to mid-’70s team. Later our organizing committee decided to include the mid-’70s-to-mid-’80s team to include the famous Cablevision teams that won a number of Minto Cups as Canadian Junior Lacrosse Champions. Those powerful ’77-’79 teams were inducted into the Canadian Lacrosse Hall of Fame. In addition, to that team there are about 20 builders, coaches and players from Burnaby that are also in the Canadian Lacrosse Hall of Fame, including Sohen of course and some of our early coaches like Jack Crosby and Harry Woolley. They all grew up around that Confederation Lacrosse Box, which was the foundation for the development of lacrosse in Burnaby in the 1960s. It will be sad to see the old lacrosse box replaced but we hope the new facility will be utilized and continue to inspire young players. With this in mind, we hope that the Parks Boards will give consideration to ensuring the new facility is an open-box operation for all, and if they are looking for a name for the box we would certainly support naming it after Sohen Gill. To understand Sohen’s contribution to Burnaby Lacrosse check out a writeup about him on the BC Sports Hall of Fame website. Phil Thomas

The strata of a North Burnaby lowrise apartment building is not on the hook for cracks in the drywall or a toilet that “vibrates and makes an unusual flushing noise” in one of the units, according to a ruling by the Civil ResolutionTribunal last week. Ka Hung Szeto, who owns an apartment at Empire Place just north of Hastings Street, had applied to the tribunal for an order compelling the strata to inspect and repair the drywall and toilet damage. He said the damage appeared around the time the strata’s contractor, Grantson Construction Group Inc., was performing building envelope repairs. “Mr. Szeto says Grant-

son’s exterior building work caused those issues,” states a ruling by Civil ResolutionTribunal member Chad McCarthy. Szeto also later requested the strata be made to repair a hole in the ceiling, pay $2,500 as compensation for unreasonable noise, nuisance, loss of enjoyment of the strata

lot, and pay his $100 Condominium Home Owners Association (CHOA) membership fee. McCarthy dismissed all of his claims. McCarthy ruled it would be procedurally unfair for the tribunal to rule on the later claims because the strata hadn’t had sufficient time to respond.

As for the drywall and toilet allegations, McCarthy said expert evidence is normally required to assess the quality of a professional’s work, and Szeto had not provided any to support his claims. “I find Mr. Szeto’s submission that construction ‘pounding and thumping’ likely caused the wall cracks and alleged toilet vibrations is speculative and is not supported with required expert evidence,” McCarthy wrote. The strata, meanwhile, tried to claim more than $4,500 in legal expenses and disbursements, but McCarthy dismissed that claim as well. “The strata submitted no evidence showing that it owed or paid the claimed amount. I find those legal expenses and disbursements are unproven,” McCarthy wrote.

Community now Claws are out for applause with youthful musical

Burnaby choreographer Ken Overbey spearheads production of CATS:TheYoung Actors Edition Abhinaya Natesh

anatesh@burnabynow.ca

CATS is back in Vancouver, in a version spearheaded by Burnaby choreographer Ken Overbey. Re-emerging from the shadows are the felines — sly, claws out, these CATS are a notorious bunch. And they are young. The Children’s Theatre of Richmond (CTORA) is bringing the latest rendition of Broadway’s classic, CATS:TheYoung Actors Edition, to PAL Studios in Vancouver from July 29 to Aug. 7. Helping bring this musical to life is Burnaby’s Ken Overbey, who has been choreographing these cats’ every move. Overbey began his entertainment career a couple decades ago at Disneyland in the United States as a dancer. Six years and multiple cross-country trips later, he switched to musical theatre and choreography, and toured the world before settling in Burnaby five years ago. Many people dream of a glamourous life in the entertainment industry — singing, dancing and acting. Overbey brought those dreams to fruition and made them into a career. “Well, I actually didn’t go to school for dance,”

The meow generation: Performers rehearse for a production of CATS: The Young Actors Edition. PHOTO ABHINAYA NATESH

he said. “I went to be a lawyer, have a political science degree. But my parents said, ‘If you’re going to university, take really different electives.’That I did. I took fencing and archery and dance.” For the now-seasoned choreographer, it didn’t end there. “I ended up loving dance and just kept taking more and more classes. I got a job at Disneyland, in Anaheim, Calif., with the dance group.Working there, the stronger you were in dance, the higher you got paid. So I

kept taking dance classes. And then it just became something that I ended up loving doing. And I feel like I’m never working because it’s my passion, and as time went on, I just progressed into doing choreography, and I really loved doing choreography.” Overbey had a passion for storytelling, and he used multiple elements like music, dance and costumes together to bring stories to life. Although Burnaby has a strong base for Hollywood North film and TV

productions, the musical theatre scene itself is not as big. “I’m very lucky because I have a group of other authors that I work with; director Mark Carter and musical director Jerry Hoffman. And I love that group. But I would love to have a company, a stable company that actually could exist right in Burnaby. He would like to see the community foster young musical talent in Burnaby. “Burnaby used to have Footlight Company.That was the local company at the Shadbolt, and that’s

since gone. But I would love for that to come back — to have a company for that city for youth and other people who still want to perform, and they can do so at home.” Overbey has an extensive filmography and discography including choreography for Million Dollar Quartet at Theatre Calgary, Silence! The Musical and Annie, among many others. His latest project with the young actors is the rendition of CATS in PAL Studios Vancouver, opening on July 29.

In contrast to his usual projects, involving choreography for adults, he has been investing a considerable amount of time on this project working with child actors. “Usually with the children,” he said. “They come in, and they’re intent to listen, but then they get a little bit lax, whereas adults, you pretty much have their focus the whole time. But that’s on you to keep their focus for the young people, right, and you show them what the end game is and how strong they can be.” The Young Actors Edition is a shorter, one-hour long, version of the original CATS, with added fun and festivity in the performance. “Just seeing the joy of them coming in every day and working hard to get it.This is their summer, their free time. And they’re here, you know, on time every day to learn. That’s because they really want to do a good job. It’s going to be a very good show, for sure.” CATS: THE YOUNG ACTORS EDITION Where: PAL Studios Vancouver When: To Aug. 7 Cost: $20.50 $27.50+; more info available at ctora.ca

City to draft agreement for 61 non-market housing units Lauren Vanderdeen

lvanderdeen@burnabynow.com

The City of Burnaby is steps closer to entering into a housing agreement with the L’Arche Foundation of Greater Vancouver regarding a non-market housing development. The development, under construction at 7401 Sussex Ave., includes 61 rental units for low- and moderate-income people and people with developmental disabilities, and will be a multi-age residential care facility. The city is now in the process of securing the non-market or special needs housing through a housing agreement, which is a legal tool that secures details like “rent levels, in-

come-testing requirements and target populations,” according to a city staff report. The development is three storeys with 39 units of non-market housing and 22 bedrooms for people with developmental disabilities and their live-in caregivers (14 bedrooms for disabled residents and 8 bedrooms for their caregivers). L’Arche will rent 22 of its units at deep subsidy rates, and 24 units at rentgeared-to-income rates for low income households earning at or below BC Housing’s housing income limits. Fifteen units will be rented at “affordable market rates for moderate income households” as out-

lined in the agreement with BC Housing. Rent levels for 22 bedrooms will be at deep subsidy rates. The units can only be occupied by residents meeting income eligibility requirements for the type of rented unit. L’Arche will not be able to ask for extra charges or fees for common areas or amenities, although it may charge for parking, laundry, cable TV, telephone and other fees approved by BC Housing. According to L’Arche’s website, the project is scheduled for completion and occupancy in 2024. The development was approved by Burnaby council in November 2021.

Citynow Human-wildlife conﬂict calls spike in Burnaby

Sightings include bears, cougars, bobcats and coyotes, but not all have required an immediate response

Jess Balzer

jfedigan@burnabynow.ca

It seems more wild animals have been spotted in Burnaby, especially within the past two weeks. Since July 19, the BC Conservation Officer Service (BCCOS) says it’s received a total of 25 human-wildlife conflict reports in the the city’s vicinity, including: • 16 bear conflict/sightings •Three cougar sightings •Three coyote sighting/ conflict/hit by vehicle • One bobcat sighting • One deer hit by vehicle While they receive many sighting reports, the BCCOS says not all need an immediate response, especially if the animal is demonstrating normal behaviour. It explains employees will respond if there is a public safety risk or if an animal is in distress. Burnaby has had two incidents this summer where

black bears were shot and killed by police or the BCCOS. During the July 1 long weekend, a black bear was seen chasing what appeared to be a gosling at a busy Burnaby pitch-andputt golf course. In a social media post, the animal was seen charging on the course and chasing a group of Canada geese, causing nearby humans to scatter. The bear continues to chase the young gosling and eventually catches it. A second video appears to show the same bear around the same time in Central Park, near Patterson Station. The video was taken on July 2 around 2:30 p.m., according to Sebastian Plusa, who posted it online. In a statement to the NOW, Ministry of Environment and Climate Change Strategy spokesperson David Karn said the bear was tranquilized

Carrier

CROSSMAN/ISTOCK/GETTY IMAGES PLUS

and, after an assessment, the bear was put down due to its behaviour compromising public safety. “Putting down any bear or cub is an unfortunate outcome that we work so hard to prevent,” the statement said. “Every wildlife situation is unique and is assessed individually, taking into account ever-changing circumstances, such as the risk to public safety and the animal’s ability to survive in the wild. “Bears that are conditioned to humans or con-

ditioned to non-natural food sources are not candidates for relocation or rehabilitation.” BORDER BEAR KILLED IN JUNE On June 19, a black bear was shot and killed by police after the bear ventured into a busy residential area near the Burnaby-Vancouver border. Police started monitoring the bear with hopes it would move to a safer place, according toVancouver Police Department (VPD) spokesperson Sgt.

Steven Addison said. But Addison explained officers were forced to shoot the bear after it crossed a short distance into Burnaby. The bear was going “in and out of yards,” was getting too close to people and pets and was “walking in traffic,” he added. According to social media, the bear was believed to have been shot near the intersection of Hastings Street and Boundary Road. When the bruin was first spotted,VPD notified the BC Conservation Officer Service (BCCOS) as well as animal control for assistance. Animal control staff were deployed, but they didn’t arrive before police were forced to kill the bear, Addison said. According toWildSafeBC’sWildlife Alert Reporting Program, Burnaby has had 383 animal sightings reported including cougars, bears, bobcats and coyotes since January 1, 2022. The provincial organiza-

tion encourages residents to consider the following tips around bears: • Keep your garbage in or secured until the day of collection. Garbage is the number one attractant cited in reports to the provincial hotline • Manage your fruit trees: don’t let windfalls accumulate, and pick fruit as it ripens • If you don’t want the fruit, consider accessing a fruit-gleaning group in your community, washing the blossoms off in the spring so the fruit doesn’t set; or replacing the tree with a non-fruit bearing variety • Don’t put out bird feeders when bears are active • Keep your compost working properly with lots of brown materials and a regular schedule of turning • If you have livestock or backyard chickens use a properly installed and maintained electric fence to keep bears and livestock apart - with files from Kyle Balzer,Tri-City News

Points deﬁcit fades playoff hopes for Lakers

Burnaby lacrosse team set to play final game of the season at home Aug. 7 against the Langley Thunder Jess Balzer

jfedigan@burnabynow.ca

The Burnaby Lakers’ struggles during the regular season have seemingly put an end to any hope of a playoff appearance. Heading into their final match of the season against the Langley Thunder, the senior ‘A’ squad holds just eight points in

the Western Lacrosse Association (WLA) standings with a record of 4-13. The top four teams at the end of the year punch a ticket to the postseason. Burnaby is currently 12 points back of fourth place with only one game left. If the Lakers win their final contest, they would finish with a 5-13 record

and 10 points. In their past 10 games, their record sits at 2-8 with a .235 winning percentage. Burnaby lost a number of games this season by a one-to-three-goal margin, which ultimately cost them valuable points. Lakers general manager Kevin Hill told the NOW at the start of the season
