Next week marks the 50th anniversary of one of themost pivotal, groundbreaking momentsinB.C political history. It wasonAug. 30, 1972 thatthe NDP first came to powerinB.C. Over thecourse of alittle more than three years, thenew governmentturned the province on its head and broughtinsweeping and colossal changesthatcontinue to reverberate today They range from things like ICBC, the Agricultural Land Reserve,anexpanded provincial park system, alabourcode, building Robson Square and theWhistlerResort, to restoringthe Parliament Buildings and banning the strapinschools. There is anew book out that recalls thattime, and it is written by thenumber 2personinthatbrief government —formercabinet minister BobWilliams, second onlytoPremier Dave Barrett when it came to wielding power. Anyone interestedin B.C. historywould be wise to pick up acopyof Us ing PowerWell: BobWilliams and the Making of British Columbia.Itpaints avivid picture of the yearsimmediatelyleadinguptothe NDP’swin in 1972 and its tumultuous time in government. It being amemoir, it of course centresonWil liams’ actionsduring his timeinpower (as well as his path to powerand his post-politics life), butoverall this is avolumethat catches the excitement and energythatobviously drove that governmenton adaily basis Ihavevague memories of thatgovernment,other than being delightedabout the ban on the strap (not that Ievercamecloseto getting ataste of it). My father,a longtime supporter of theSocial Credit government that the NDP replacedafter a20year run, muttered darkly about the“commies”taking over Compared to that near-revolutionarygroup of the1970s, today’sversion of an NDPgovernmentismuchtamer in nature.A bigdifference seems to be thatwhen the NDP firstcametopower, it wassosurprised by that development it concluded that repeatinganelectionwin seemed unlikely, hence the idea to get everything done at once. Today’sNDP is taking a longer view.Italready won re-electionin2020and did so by making historic inroads in FraserValley and Okanagan seats,asits centrist approach to governing paid off. One of itsfirst critical decisions after coming to powerin2017 was to complete theconstructionofthe Site Cdam Thatdecision repudiated theposition theparty hadwhile in Opposition, and Premier John Horgan told me at thetime that it wasanexample of shifting from“activism” to actually governing. Thatapproach willbe tested in the NDPleadershiprace to replaceHorgan.David Eby,the former attorney general, is a consensusfavorite to win the contest, butheisbeing challenged by noted climate change activist Anjali Appadurai. Appaduraiwants the party to abandon centrist policies and return to its activist ways.Her positions on various issues —such as LNG and policing,to name just two—willlikely pushEby to adopt more moderate positions, which couldhelphim redefine his ownimage, one that dates backtohis more ac tivist Opposition days But no matter theout come of the leadership race, it isunlikely the NDP will returntoa radicaldesire forchangethatwesaw beginning to unfold 50 yearsago next week Keith Baldreyischief po liticalreporter forGlobalBC.

In it,she createsapost-oilvision of the sitethatoffersus aglimpse of whatother oil storageand refining sites in Burnabymay looklikeinthe future We have aunique opportunity to reimagine not just the Shellburn site, but all oil refining and storagefacilitiesin Burnaby —including, of course, the TransMountainsite. In order to meetevenCanada’s modest targetstoreduce greenhouse gasemissions, these sites need to be decommissioned sooner than later, and definitely not expanded. TheCityof Burnabyand its residents can play acrucial role in this necessarytransition. Burnaby’sofficial community plan (OCP) will be updated soon, and we canmakethe useof theserefiningand storagesites increasingly unattractive, by changing their designationin the OCP,fromIndustrialBulk Storage(which isn’t even much of atax revenue generator) to …well, that’swhereimagination comes in Ms. Zhang’sthesis on Shellburn features a post-cleanupparksetting, but recreational use may be combined with residential, cultural, commercial, educational and/or technology uses.

The officialcommunityplan is about creating better places forall ofustolive, play and work.Everyone in Burnabyshouldfeel encour aged to participate, though this process must of course include theIndigenous communities that havecarefully stewarded the landsfor countless generations, and whose guidance will help to heal whathas been damaged by industry.

TheCRT is an online, quasi-judicial tribunalthat has jurisdiction over most small claims disputes under $5,000 in B.C.
Tribunal vicechair Andrea Ritchie concluded the evidence didn’tsupport the ideathatKarmshil had “suddenly” turned in front ofTurk, as Turk claimed “Here, theevidence is thatMr.Turk approached the intersection on ayel lowlight, anddetermined (incorrectly) thatitwas safefor him to cross the intersection despite the light’s colour,” Ritchie wrote.“In spite of Mr Turk admittedly noticing vehicles around him slowing to astop, Mr.Turk did not slowhis vehicle for the light. Ifind Mr.Turk wasattempting to ‘beat’ theyellowlight,ignoring the fact thattrafficaround himhad stopped.”
Ritchie noted thereis generally a“heavyonus” on left-turning drivers, butshe concluded that, giventhe circumstances, Karmshilwas “entitled to assume thatMr.Turk would obey the rulesof the road.” “Here, Ifind Rahul Karmshil appropriately yieldedthe right of wayto oncoming traffic southboundonGriffiths Drive whilethe lightwas green, waited for traffic to stop when thelight turned yellow, and then safely startedtheirleft turn,” Ritchie wrote. Ritchie also noted that, althoughTurk claimed damages for injuries, he hadnot provided anyevidence documenting his allegedinjuries, their du ration or theimpact they have hadonhim. Turk’sclaim wasdismissed, and he wasordered to payKarmshil $25 as reimbursementof tribunal fees

Thatvehicle wasdriven by RahulKarmshil. Turk claimed Karmshil should be held100 percent responsible for the crash forturning left in frontofhim. Turk admittedthe light hadturned yellow before he entered theintersection buthehad determined it wassafetoproceed, when Karmshil “suddenly” turned leftinfront of him Karmshil,meanwhile, saidTurk shouldbeheld 100 per cent responsible for thecrash forentering theintersection against the traffic light. According to Karmshil’s account, Karmshil hadapproached the intersection when the lightwas green and waitedinthe left-turn lane whiletraffic passed.

At thetime of their inter view with the NOW,the family hadn’t yetseenany of theseries excepta trailerposted onYouTube. But thatwas enough to set Sabrina off “Oh, Icried,”she said.“Even nowmyeyesare getting misty.”
It’snot just that she’sproudof her “shy, hardworking, studious” daughterfor taking on the challenge and working so hard to see it through. The projectitself means alot. “Representation, it does matter,” Sabrina said. “It’s impor tant for kidstofeel likethey’re normal, and that’swhy Ithink theshowissogreat because,you know, Deepa has an extended family.She lives in ahotelwith her grandparentsand herpar entsand herbrothers, andthat’s howalot of SouthAsian families live.Theylaughtogether; they play together; they grow together.” Such representationwas nonexistent when Sabrina was growing up And when she tried her hand at actingwhen she wasyounger, she saidshe wastoldthere were “just no roles for girls likeyou.”

REPRESENTATION MATTERS: PavanBharaj of Burnabystars as the voiceofDeepainthe newNetflix animated series Deepa &Anoop.She wasjust10years old when she landed the role, which she recorded virtually during the COVID-19 pandemic.
“I thought Imight as well just tryitbecause it would be bet ter if Itried it and didn’t getthe partthannot tryitand maybe would have gotten the part,”Pavantold the NOW. Afew days aftersending in her audition, however, she got a call back from thecasting direc tor inviting her to asinging audition. Shepassed that hurdle too, with arendition of HowFar I’ll Go from Disney’sMoana, and landed the part. “It is unbelievable,isn’tit? It’s so crazy,” Sabrina said. Whatfollowed wasabout a year of recordingsessions and a lotofhardwork thatwrapped up in September 2021. The series, aimed at apreschool audience, followsthe antics ofDeepa, agirlwho lives withher parents, grandparents and brothersinthe family’s hotel,and Deepa’ssidekick Anoop, acolour-changingelephant that communicates in trumpeting noises “It’s likethe South Asian versionofDora butwith more songs,”Sabrina said. Because of COVID restrictions,Pavan’s first voice-acting gigwas somewhat unique. Instead of being abletoriffoff other actors, she had to record alone, with onlyatechnician in thesound booth andher directorand othersbeamed in on a TV screen viaZoom.
Pavan, who turns13thisyear andisstartinghigh schoolat Burnaby South Secondaryin thefall, would like to play arole in changing all thatnow that she’slaunchedher ownacting career. “I am hoping thatI can do something like this again,”she said. “I want to give it atry and work more.” Deepa& Anoop is now streaming on Netflix. Season 1consists of 13 30-minuteepisodes

The hospital foundation says theChinese Ambassador Society has connected thefoundation with generous donorsand has namedthe foundation as abeneficiaryfrom several community events. So far, Burnaby Hospital Foundation hasraised $27million towardsthe transformation of thehospital intoastate-of-the-art facility,with aredevelop ment that focusesonexpanding emergencycare, improving surgeryservices,creating anew ma ternitycentre and building anew mental healthunit.
Conceptually, ashotgun clause (also sometimescalledacompulsorybuy outclause)isintendedtoprovideaway outofadeadlocksituation, in away that operatesfairly forall sides.
Newlife: From left,Mayor MikeHurley, Burnaby Hospital Foundation CEO Kristy James, ClaireXi, Create Propertiespresident Lin Li andCoun. James Wang at aspecial event marking Create Properties’ donation to theBurnaby Hospital redevelopment campaign.
In brief,ashotgun clause lets an unhappyshareholder or business partnertriggerandbringaboutaforced purchaseofthe othershareholder’s interest in thecommonenterpriseata specified price pershare.Atthe same time, once triggered,itallowsthe othershareholder(s) to turn around andinstead buyout thetriggering shareholder at thesameprice pershare specified by thetriggeringshareholder This method is designedtoencourage thetriggeringshareholder to pick afair price pershare to paytothe otherside If low-balling, they risk beingbought out instead andlosingtheir own interest in thecommonenterprise. In practice,suchclauses don’talways work in an even-handedway,e.g., if there’sasignificant difference in the financial fire powerofthe different sides. Abusinesspartner in aweak financial position facinga compulsory buy-out offer maybeunabletofund thepurchaseofthe otherside (which low-balled theprice) instead Thereare ways to addresssucha knownimbalance,e.g., by havingthe price establishedindependentlyrather than setbythe triggering party. So care is neededwhenwriting up anyparticularshotgun provision–to take into accountthe particular circumstances involved.Timelines forrespondingtothe offer arecritical andmay need to allow theresponding side enough time to arrange financing, shouldtheyprefertopurchaserather than sell Care is also needed when triggeringa shotgun clause to ensure thereare no regrets later.

The maternity clinic serves womeninthe community who don’thavea doctor providing obstetri cal care The clinic provides24hour accesstocare, with amulti-disciplinaryteam that includes specialist obstetricians, dietitians, social workers and interpret ers.
Burnaby Hospital’smaternityclinic just got a huge boost —and anew name The clinicisnow called the Create PropertiesMaternityClinic,following Create Properties’ contri bution of $500,000aspart of the BurnabyHospital Foundation’sBright Future redevelopment campaign.
“Approximately 1,500 babies are delivered at Burnaby Hospital each year, and we expectthat number to continue to increase as ourpopulationgrows,”said Kristy James, Burnaby Hospital Foundation president and CEO,inapress release. “Weare honoured and inspired by Create Properties’generous gift towards maternityservices at Burnaby Hospital.This gift willhaveasignificant impact on so many families, andwecommend Create’sdedication to investing in theBurnaby community.”
LinLi, founder and president of Create Prop erties,said thedonation is goingtowards an importantcause “The maternity facilitiesatBurnaby Hospital arewherenew life arrives, bringing with it hope, op timismand excitement,” Li saidinthe release. “It is agathering placefor families and lovedones, who willshortly embark on a new journey together.”
JamesWang,a Burn aby city councillor and thefounding memberof Burnaby Hospital Foundation’sChineseAmbassador Society,saidCreate Properties’ donation was ameaningful contribu tion to the redevelopment plans

So-called“shotgun clauses” canoften be foundinshareholder agreements or other“jointventure”typeagreements. They’reone of severalmechanisms typicallyincluded in thesekinds of agreements to deal with resolving disputes that mayarise between shareholdersinaprivate companyor jointventure partners involvedina common businessenterprise. As thecolourful monikerimplies, this kindofclausesuggestsyoumayhaveto make adecisionwithagun pointing at you, i.e.,thatitinvolves afairlydrastic situationforcingyou to do something. And indeed,ashotgun clause is normally used only as alast resort.It shouldonlybeinvoked when there areirreconcilabledifferences between thebusinesspartnersthatcannotbe resolved exceptbya“divorce,”withthe former partners afterwardsgoing their separate ways.
In arecentcase, ashareholder triggered ashotgun clause,thenlater tried to revoke their offer to buy. Akey reason –the valueofthe enterprise hadincreased substantiallyafter the clause wasinvoked (whichmeant the triggering side facedbeingforced out itself foraprice that wasnow too low). OurBCCourt of Appeal decided theoffer to buy(or sell)atthe price specified by thetriggeringparty was irrevocable, so thetriggeringparty was out of luck

Camp participants also gottotry their handat hose handling –and that’s no easy feat. “Wehad ahose handling station where they learned the ergonom ics of positioning yourself. It’s not agarden hose. It weighs alot, and it’s unwieldy,” Ius said. “Auto extrication —theygot to use and see tools they’ve probably never seen before and use them to cut cars, create openings.”
CARSCOST LESS AT CARTER!
“As an example,what we did in NewWest is we exposed them to our tower aerial operations,” she said.“They gottoclimb thetower and get into the bucket of thetower and operatethe tower.”
Ius said fire departments like participatingin the program because of its educationalvalue andoutreach components “It’sa greatexperience for the department to have overall,”Ius said.“There’s nothing more satisfying than mentoring and promoting youth. Ithink thosethingsall combined is what makes it so attractivefor adepartment to host.”

In itsfirst years, most of thecamp’sparticipants came from theLower Mainland, butitnow at tracts girls from the Interior, Kootenays,Vancouver Island and otherparts of the province. “Aspartofthe group thatfirst started it, we couldn’tbehappier that it’s been as successful as it’sbecome, andsomuch so that it’s goingtomorph intoseparate camps throughout the province,” Iussaid Ius,a former director with CampIgnite,has beeninvolved in the program since it started 12 yearsago.She said it beganafter acoupleof women firefightersheard about asimilar program offeredinthe U.S. “That kind of inspired one of them to think about it,” shesaid. “Then a group of six of us gottogether, andliterally sat around atableand talked about it. It justgrew from there.”

Ius said it’salwaysgreat to see theconnectionsgirls make with their peersat Camp Ignite. “When theyall first arrive,they don’tknoweach other.But within thatfirst day, solidbonds arebeing made. Alot of it is in part because of the activities thatwedo, which intrinsically employ teamwork andtrust, andrelationship building. So Ithink that there’sthatpiece thatconnects with these girls as well,”she said. “Thesort of byproduct of all this is thatthey gettosee anddo some of thethings thatwe (firefighters) do.”

It seems there is amix of information from StatCan, and corroboratedbyothers, that there is both good and badnews relativeto an older Canadian Accordingtothe StatCanweb pages, the popu lation of older people has increased. It wasfound that thereare seven million people aged 65 and older, whichrepresents nearlyone in fiveCanadi ans (19 per cent), up from 16.9 per cent in 2016. Significantly,aswell, older people areliving lon ger.A fun fact, as of July 1, 2021,itwas recorded thatthere are12,822centenarians in Canada —a 16-per-cent increasefrom 2016. StatCanalso found that“Seniorsaged 85 and older aregrowinginnumber andasaproportion of thepopulation.The growth of this population will accelerate even further in coming years, as the firstbabyboomer cohorts will turn85.”The baby boomerslike me, born between 1946 and 1965, are thelargestgeneration in Canadian history.
MargaretCoates AsWe Agecontributor As StatisticsCanada rolls out itslatest information about Canada’spopulation,I wondered what they foundinthe older personcategory. Iwanted to know how theaverage senior fares in oursocietyand what roles older people play in thecommunity.Aswell, I wonderediftheycan navigate safely in oursociety andwhether they are disproportionately affected by abuseorbyworld events such as climate change and COVID-19 and its variants.

Older people areworking longer,manyuptothe retirementage of 65 and somebeyondthatcut-off StatCan says,“Compared with twodecades ago, more seniors remained active in thelabour market in their late 60sand into their 70s. Seniors with abachelor’sdegreeor higher and thosewithout privateretirement income were more likely to work than otherseniors.” Menwere more likely thanwomen to continue to work, possibly because many women leave the work force to take on the caregiving role in their families. StatCan says that “al though COVID-19has affected allCanadians, seniors are particularly vulnerable to its healthimpacts,including ahigher risk of hospitalization, health complications,and death.”Theyalsosay as seniorsare morelikely to live alone or in an institution, that healthmeasures meant to keep olderpeo plesafe paradoxically put thematrisk of social iso lationwhichisarguably a severe andcriticalissue for seniors

On the StatCan web pages,itwas found that older people supplymuch of thecaregivingfor their aging family and friends. Supporting this fact,the CanadianAssociationof Retired Peoplesays“This unpaid labour, estimated at $25-billion annually,is beingshoulderedbymil lionsofCanadians, over one million of whom are over age 65.” Manyseniorssaidthey felt safe in community despite some increases in el derabuse andscams targeting olderpeople. A reportbyShana Conroy and DanielleSutton, CanadianCentrefor Justice, and CommunitySafety Statisticssays, “Most seniors were somewhator very satisfied withtheir personalsafety fromcrime (82 per cent),perceived their neighbourhoodas having alower amount of crimethanother areas in Canada (77 per cent)and reported asomewhat or very strongsense of communitybelonging (72per cent).”
While the pandemic seemstobeevolvingwith new variantsabounding, maybe it wouldbewise for older people to continue practising safety mea sures like wearingmasks inindoorsettings,distancing from people in pub licspaces and keeping up theirvaccination regime. However, despite being negatively impacted by the COVID-19pandemic,the over-65 populationcon tinuestoincrease in Can ada as awhole. Ithink that we need to prepare for the issues for older people that this growth will create.
