Bringing Marwa home
Burnaby resident Wissam Nassar hopes his fiancé Marwa can escape Syria and join him in Canada. A Coquitlam family is hosting a benefit concert to raise money to sponsor Marwa as a refugee.

issam Nassar hasn’t seen his fiancé, Marwa, in two years. He left her behind in Syria, after a former Burnaby pastor and his wife sponsored the Nassars as refugees. Now, they are working to sponsor her as well, and reunite the young couple in Burnaby. ◆ Wissam Nassar, 26, watches his former home go up in flames on a flat screen monitor in his Burnaby apartment. The shaky YouTube video shows a scene of panic at Al Tanf, a refugee camp in the middle of the desert on the ON MY BEAT border of Syria Jennifer Moreau and Iraq.

Arabic fetch water, desperately trying to squelch the rising inferno. Somewhere in the chaos are Wissam and his brother. “The people tried to put the fire (out), but they can’t,” Wissam calmly explains. “We just bring water, … to control the fire. … It was really hard. It’s hard
to describe. In that time, I was scared for my family.” No one died, and his family’s tent was spared, but fires like this were all too common at Al Tanf, a camp set up in 2006 in Syria for Palestinian refugees escaping Iraq. They had nowhere else to go. No country would take them.
Wissam is from Palestine, but he’s never seen his home country. In 1948, Israelis asked his grandfather to leave – just for one week, then he could return. “We are still waiting,” Wissam says with a laugh. Wissam and his 29-year-old brother, Wassem, were born in
Iraq, as were their parents. As stateless refugees, the Nassar family held no passports. As Palestinians, they faced discrimination and persecution in Iraq. “In that time, we didn’t have any rights to study or work. … everything was not allowed for

Lack of action on pet sales frustrates advocates Stefania Seccia staff reporter
After waiting a year, Kathy Powelson said she’s given up hope on seeing a retail sales ban for puppies, kittens and rabbits in Burnaby. Last July, Powelson, executive director and founder of the Paws for Hope Animal Foundation, made a delegation to council asking the city to update its animal control bylaw and include the sales ban specifically of puppies, kittens and rabbits in the city. “We’re incredibly frustrated,” she said in a phone interview. “At this point, I’m

not really optimistic that they’re going to be recommending a ban on pet store sales (of puppies, kittens and rabbits).” In the last several months, Powelson said she hasn’t heard anything back from the city after sending several emails inquiring after the bylaw amendments. “New year’s came and went,” she said. “I know they receive emails all the time from community members. We receive at least a few a month.” At first, the bylaw was expected to come before council last fall, then April, then June 10, then June 24 – but it’s yet to show up in an agenda package. The clerks department told the NOW
the animal control bylaw report could come before council in mid-July and the licensing department was still working on it. Dan Layng, supervisor of property use coordination in the city’s licensing department, said he could not comment on anything regarding the animal control bylaw review. The foundation along with other animal welfare associations in the Lower Mainland have been waiting all this time to see what the city has come up with, Powelson said. “We knew we had a big fight ahead of us, because before I presented, I went

and met with staff from the bylaw department to talk about this issue,” she said. “They said in my presentation to council I’d have to prove banning the retail sale of puppies would solve the puppy mill problem, which is such an unrealistic goal for anyone. “But council seemed really receptive to my presentation.” Other Lower Mainland municipalities have been updating their animal control bylaws over the last few years, either banning sales or getting rid of breed-specific wording.

Ban: Not yet before council continued from page 3
A few years ago, Richmond became the first city in Canada to ban puppy sales in retail stores – but Powelson says it led to pet stores increasing kitten sales to make up for lost revenue. “We have clear examples of pet stores that do not sell live animals that are very successful,” she said, noting Tisol Pet Nutrition and Supply has been opening up new locations. “There’s a huge educational piece around it, when you’re involved with a social cause it’s easy to forget that not everyone knows the information.” When the animal control amendments do come forward, Powelson said the foundation is ready for the next step. “If the recommendation is not to instill a bylaw ban then we will present again,” she said. “And if there’s a consultation (process) we’ll present again and continue to encourage the community to also write to mayor and council.” The foundation will also encourage people to think about alternative ways to acquire a pet humanely, she added. The Paws for Hope foundation is part of a coalition of other animal welfare associations, including Vancouver Orphan Kitten Rescue Association, B.C. Chihuahua Rescue, HugABull, Small Animal Rescue and Semiahmoo Animal League, according to Powelson. For more information about Paws for Hope, visit pawsforhope. org.

us,” he says, seated on a couch, next to his mother Suhair. Then in 2006, they began to leave: first his brother Wassem, then three months later Wissam. They went to Syria, which was relatively peaceful then, Wissam says. His brother, who arrived first, slept in the streets till he found himself an apartment. “It was hard in the beginning. We didn’t know anybody there,” Wissam says. But soon, he met someone. A young Palestinian woman who also left Iraq. Her name was Marwa. “I knew her brother,” Wissam says. “I went to her house, got to know her.” In a couple of weeks, Wissam was in love. “She’s brave, and she likes to study. She’s still working now, even in the bad situation there,” he says. In 2008, Wissam’s parents also came to Syria, but once the family’s threemonth visas expired, they were rounded up and moved to the Al Tanf refugee camp. “I refused to go to the camp at that time, because I knew I would separate (from) her,” Wissam says. “But I don’t have any choice. I have to go.” The two chatted on their cell phones when Wissam was in camp, and he was able to see Marwa in Damascus, while on study leave as part of a special program. The Nassars were moved to a second refugee camp, and eventually the United Nations Refugee Agency declared them refugees, but because they were stateless, they were not eligible to come to Canada through typical channels – private sponsorship was the only way to get them out. A Canadian Embassy visa officer connected the Nassars with a sponsor family – Ian Macdonald, a Coquitlam man and former pastor at the South Burnaby United Church, and his wife Heather, who were backed by the Westminster Presbytery of the United Church and the B.C. Muslim Association. “We didn’t know them. We never met them. We did (an) interview with Canadian Embassy,” Wissam says. “It’s unbelievable. We feel like on the top of the world at that time.” But leaving Syria meant leaving Marwa. Their families held a small, engagement party, unofficially acknowledging the two as betrothed, but when they would marry, nobody knew. Then it was time for Wissam to say goodbye.
“I promised her I will keep in touch, and I promised her I will marry her,” he explains, somewhat bashfully. Marwa cried, and told Wissam not to forget her for some Canadian girl. When the Nassars arrived in Canada on June 20, 2011, there was a twobedroom, furnished apartment waiting for them. “We were shocked,” Wissam says. “In the first few days, we told each other we are in paradise. We are in safe country.” Wissam’s family has settled in Burnaby. His father is working in a bread factory, and Wissam is in the process of getting a job as a security guard. His brother works as a cashier, and his mom is studying English. Meanwhile, Marwa is back in Damascus, working as a nurse in a private clinic, but she’s hoping to come to Canada, Wissam says. But, he acknowledges it’s difficult to get out of Syria as the political instability has worsened since he left. According to a June 13 United Nations commissioned report, the death toll has reached close to 93,000 in the ongoing conflict between armed groups and government forces. The Macdonalds are now hoping to spon-
sor Marwa, just as they sponsored the Nassars. According to Heather, the family was in Canada for about three months, when Wissam sheepishly mentioned his fiancé in Syria and asked what he could do to get her out. “I knew because I have scads of experience in immigration that he had no way of getting her here, so I thought, ‘OK, I’ll do one more,’” Heather says in a phone interview with the NOW. “She’s a refugee. She has no citizenship. Her future is grim,” she says. Heather estimates that it costs $13,000 to $14,000 per year to sponsor one refugee to come to Canada. The sponsor is responsible for cash or in-kind goods that are at a level on par with social assistance. Heather has been passionate about refugee issues for years, and sponsorship was her chance to make a real impact. “My theory is even if you’ve made a difference for one person, you’ve made a difference in the world,” she says. But the Macdonalds aren’t the only ones helping Marwa get out of Syria. Mount Seymour United Church enabled Heather, as individuals alone can’t sponsor refugees.
To help raise money, the Nassars and the Macdonalds are organizing a concert on Saturday, June 29, at the South Burnaby United Church, at 7591 Gray Ave. The show starts at 8 p.m. and features Ian Macdonald and Gordon Light of The Common Cup Company, a Christian folk group. Jamie, Rory and Derek Macdonald – Heather and Ian’s sons – will be playing with their rock band The Orchid Highway. Pianist Elfren Ordanza and singer Marie Stevens will be performing with The Rumblers. Wissam and Wassem will also talk about their experiences as refugees, and Heather will talk about sponsorship. Admission is by donation, and $10 is the suggested minimum. The Macdonalds are hoping to raise $2,000 to $3,000. Proceeds will go to the sponsorship fund for Marwa, and any money left over will help pay for Marwa’s plane ticket, retraining at nursing school, and Wissam and Marwa’s wedding. Wissam is waiting for the day when he can see his fiancé again. “Finally! I hope that my dream (will) come true. My mom is waiting as well, my brother, and all my family.”

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Fund arts, not sister city visits
Dear Editor:
Re: Cold shoulder doesn’t deter gallery boosters, Burnaby NOW, June 21. I’ve read with interest the story of how an advocacy group for a new Burnaby Art Gallery has been stonewalled by Burnaby city council. As a former member of the Burnaby Arts Council, I can certainly relate to the frustration this group feels in this regard. I recall that in the two years I was a member of the council, the issue of a new gallery was the number 1 topic of discussion, and that was in the early ’90s. This lack of commitment over the years has severely limited the scope of the exhibitions that can be mounted by the gallery. Given the

difficult-to-get-to location, the lack of space and proper environment needed to display national and international exhibits, it’s no wonder the number of patrons to the gallery is small in comparison with many regional galleries. As far as funding goes, I totally agree with Irene McCutcheon about how there seems to be no problem in finding the money to fund sports-related facilities. I recall that when the Shadbolt centre was being proposed, the arts community had to come up with $1 million through fundraising in order to jump-start the project. How much money has the sports community had to raise for all of the sports venues? Why is it that all of these sports facilities don’t

continued from page 6
“burden the taxpayers” as councillors Pietro Calendino and Sav Dhaliwal stated. Don’t they realize the importance of art to the well-being of our community? I agree that what is needed to address this issue is more “imagination and creativity” as Bill Thomson, president of the arts council, so aptly points out. Perhaps funding for a new gallery could be started from the savings that could be achieved with the cancellation of the sister city boondoggle? Tony Bosello, Burnaby
More entitled than others
Dear Editor:
It’s welcome news that the premier has rescinded the large pay increases for political staff appointed by individual cabinet ministers. It’s a smart move considering the public outrage it generated and the likelihood of it carrying over into the Westside-Kelowna by-election. Unfortunately, Christy Clark is exempting one of her own staff members from the salary reversal. She intends to pay her former assistant campaign director, Michele Cadario, a whooping $175,000 as deputy chief of staff. The justification offered is that Cadario will be doing two jobs instead of just one. It’s not very believable. The fact of the matter is that the controversial attempt to reward ministerial aides for political (as opposed to public) service has its origins in a firmly entrenched culture of entitlement within the Liberal government. Moreover, Clark’s decision with respect to her personal political appointee suggests she believes some have a greater entitlement than others.
Re: Jordan wants papers, Burnaby NOW, June 21. I was pleasantly surprised to read you were addressing SkyTrain construction’s excessive spending. The pleasure came from reading someone representing me would finally be addressing the fact that there has been no accountability for spending of these funds we have all contributed to. The surprise aspect is related to the fact that you have not given up this worthy cause. I recall listening to people who had been employed on the project complain how jobs near completion of a particular phase were scrapped because of unexplained and seemingly needless overnight “changes to the plans.” These were continuously occurring during construction. With that kind of construction management, it was absolutely no surprise to see cost overruns. Laughably, the breakdown cost is now lost. How would a family member respond to one of us if we had overspent money budgeted for an important project? How would an employer react if I spent more than he had authorized and “lost” the firm’s valuable documentation? Why is it that financial accountability has crucial repercussions on a personal and business level but not on the public level? Are those who run these projects operating on a volunteer basis or are these people paid and so need to be fully accountable or publicly lose their jobs? Although financial re-compensation may unfortunately not be feasible, your actions may reduce future misuses. For this, I thank you for your attempts on my behalf.

NDP: Battling identity crisis continued from page 6
will avoid the same treatment, although whether he survives that infighting remains to be seen. Further troubling the New Democrats is what appears to be a fundamental philosophical split in the party. As I wrote in this space a few weeks ago, the split was revealed in the middle of the election campaign when Dix suddenly declared his dead-set opposition to the proposed Kinder Morgan pipeline. One of the reasons the NDP lost the election is because that opposition
to a large industrial project may well have cost it seats outside of Metro Vancouver and Vancouver Island. By aligning itself with the environmental lobby, the party may marginalize itself and confine its support to the city of Vancouver, a few suburbs and the Island. This problem doesn’t end with Kinder Morgan. If the NDP decides it is against fracking, the Site C dam and LNG terminals, it will further cement its image as an anti-job party. Such a development would be hugely ironic. The NDP traces its roots to the CCF party, a labour-
oriented party which fought for the interests of those working in industries such as forestry and mining. But the party is drifting away from workers in those industries and towards environmentalists and public sector unions. Meanwhile, the B.C. Liberals can’t stop smiling about receiving an unexpected new lease on life from the voters. And broadening those smiles is the knowledge that their wounded opponents have leadership issues and policy differences. Luckily for the NDP, the session will only be a month long.

Walking to remember Korean War and peace I
Jason Lang/burnaby now
For more Korean War at Burnaby Central Park, where Port Moody resident Guy Black finished the end of a photos, scan with two-day, 82-kilometre walk to remember the conflict.
Sixty peaceful years: Korean War Veteran Ralph DeCosta at a wall adorned with pictures from the
t was anything but a walk in the park for Port Moody resident Guy Black, who spent two days trekking through the TriCities, Burnaby and North Vancouver, all to honour veterans of the Korean War and celebrate 60 years of peace. Black walked 82 kilometres in total to ensure that the Korean War is not forgotten. “What did I walk away with? Sore feet, tired from not sleeping in 24 hours and a sense of achieving something important which was drawing attention to the Korean War and Korean War veterans and the message of peace,” Black said in an email to the NOW. “I was extremely amazed at the number of people that believed in what I was doing, which was shown by the large number of people who joined me in my walk.” Black embarked on his walk Friday, June 21, from Banting Middle School in Coquitlam, following an opening ceremony attended by students, politicians and veterans. He marched up Burnaby Mountain, to SFU for another ceremony, complete with bagpipes. Black then descended the mountain, headed across the Iron Workers Memorial Bridge, and up Mount Seymour then over to the North Vancouver cenotaph, before returning to Burnaby for a ceremony on Saturday, June 22, at Korean War Memorial in Central Park. At the park, Black presented a collection of small stones he carried on his journey to the consul general of the Republic of Korea, and there are plans to take the stones to Korea later this year.

DOLPHIN THEATRE CLOSING TO MAKE ROOM FOR NEW DEVELOPMENT IN THE HEIGHTS
Owner is still looking for a new spot Stefania Seccia staff reporter
It’s not easy being the last independent theatre to shut down in the city, and especially difficult to pick up and find new digs in North Burnaby. That’s the sentiment Rahim Manji, one of the owners of Dolphin Cinemas parent company Hollywood Cinemas 3, shared with the Burnaby NOW recently. He said despite having a great relationship with the landlords, it hasn’t been easy to keep the theatre afloat. Manji said he recognizes that it’s the last independent cinema in the area and its closing leaves Burnaby with only one theatre. He also said he does not know the date when the Dolphin will close, but when it does there will be a “grand closing” event. “We’ll do something, I’m sure,” he told the NOW.
Manji noted he’s been busy every day looking for a new location, but it’s been quite difficult to find something. At the recent public hearing, Manji did not show up in person but emailed in a statement. He said he supports the proposed rezoning, and noted that it is no longer economically viable to operate the theatre – but the group is striving to locate a new spot. In all, the rezoning application that would seek to demolish the theatre and replace it with a four-storey development had 25 responses from the public. Of the responses, about 14 were in favour of the proposed new development, which would bring 11 accessible rental units run by the Vancouver Resources Society and 20 market housing units to Hastings Street, with the ground level made of commercial retail space. Some of the respondents in support of the rezoning application were Isabel
Kolic, executive director of the Heights Merchants Association, Ken Fraser, executive director of the Vancouver Resources Society, and Paul Caune, executive director of Civil Rights Now. Other residents in support of the new development said it will attract residents to the neighbourhood, would create more business opportunity and the 11 accessible rental units would allow those with disabilities “to live in dignity.” But, about eight residents who wrote letters or appeared before council said they wanted to keep the theatre in the area. The respondents who said they wanted the Dolphin to stick around suggested if the theatre could not stay where it is then it should find a new spot along Hastings Street. Elizabeth Bowes wrote, in a letter to the city, that Burnaby needs the Dolphin theatre and that there are already several vacant lots along Hastings Street only six
Community conversations
blocks away. Another resident, Annie Kwong, stated in a letter that the theatre is an iconic part of Burnaby Heights and the proposed development would not only impede her view, but would also create dust, noise and traffic disruptions during construction. Nelson Chow attended the public hearing, and asked council to reject the rezoning application until the Dolphin can find another location. He also expressed concern about the lack of evening entertainment in the area. The property is owned by Heights Entertainment, which is comprised of three local investors, including Sheldon and Marie Scott. The rezoning recently heard second reading from council. When it receives third reading and final adoption, the theatre will close operations. sseccia@burnabynow.com

Veteran: Walk in remembrance continued from page 11
“(The stones) were a small part of Canada that would go back to Korea. They were touched by Canadian veterans and blessed and came from important places like Banting School, SFU and Hastings Lake on Mt. Seymour,” Black said. Various local politicians, members of the public and Korean War veterans joined Black for parts of the journey. BurnabyNew Westminster MP Peter Julian attended the opening ceremonies in Coquitlam and at SFU, Burnaby-North MLA Richard Lee joined Black for a long stretch along Hastings Street, and Burnaby-Douglas MP Kennedy Stewart set up a water station at his constituency office. Burnaby-Lougheed MLA Jane Shin, whose family moved to Canada from Korea, showed up on Mount Seymour, close to midnight, when Black was descending the mountain. “She parked her car and walked with us to the bottom of the mountain which took four hours. What she did I will not
forget. She said she would walk with me, and she did it,” Black said. According to Black, the Korean community came out in large numbers and walked alongside him, always ensuring he was in the lead. “They said to each other it was my journey and they were helping me, so I should be in front,” he added. “I came away with feeling a strong sense of friendship, respect and comradeship with people I had never met before.” Black decided to do the walk to ensure the Korean War is not forgotten. The war between the north and south lasted from June 1950 to July 1953. Canada’s role in the war was to support the United Nations’ efforts bolstering the south. The war never officially ended; both sides have simply held a ceasefire for the past several decades. The total death count for soldiers and civilians on both sides was an estimated 10 million. – Jennifer Moreau

Talking tulips GREEN SCENE Anne Marrison
Question: “When my tulip leaves have turned yellow in June, can I take them up and keep them in the house? Could I put them in sand or sawdust and then replant them in the fall and add some sand under the bulb? Oh, I have to tell you how I saved my bulbs from being dug up by squirrels. I planted a garlic clove above. Not a single bulb was dug up this year. Heidi, e-mail Answer: Yes, tulips can be taken up when the leaves have died back and be stored inside absolutely dry. I’d choose sand for storage, because it would repel moisture better than sawdust. Inside storage is the method old-time gardeners have always used for tulips. Some sand under the bulb should help drainage in normal soil. But this may not succeed if you have heavy clay because the holes can fill up with water in long days of hard rain. Heidi, your idea for protecting tulip bulbs by planting garlic is so worth trying. I have immense problems with squirrels. Besides munching on tulips and crocuses, they sometimes eat my Christmas cactus during long dry summers.
Question: “We have several blueberry bushes – all doing well except one. The white flowers look fine early on, then half turn red and never develop. Some berries do develop.” Gerda, e-mail Answer: From your photo, it looks as if berries started to form but didn’t fill out properly. At least one looks as if it has turned black. I believe your blueberry may have mummy-berry. This is a very common fungal disease in B.C. due to our rainy weather. Mummy-berry spores are spread by wind and rain. Have you noticed that the centre of the flowers produce a little hard lump which falls off? These may be grey or black. The best way to deal with this is to gather up all these tiny ‘berries’ from under the bush after you harvest your good berries. Garbage these mummy-berries. Then mulch around this blueberry bush with about an inch and a half (4 cm) of composted bark mulch. This should seal in any spores which are dormant in the top layer of soil. These could be released next spring during windy, wet weather to infest your bush again. You might want to check your other bushes in case they are getting started with mummy-berry as well. Your problem bush could have begun infecting them – and they, in turn, could re-infect your vulnerable bush.

Fall prevention program helps children support seniors Each year, thousands of seniors are taken to hospitals because of injuries sustained during a simple fall. About half of these falls happen in their own homes while performing normal activities such as getting up from a chair or bed, going up or down stairs, reaching for something, or going to the bathroom.These consequences impact all of us as seniors’ falls, and injuries, cost Canadians more than $3 billion a year.
intergenerational fall prevention project using the book Safety Superheroes as a teaching tool. With a fun story, lively illustrations and loads of safety tips, this book is a great resource for encouraging and teaching about intergenerational fall prevention.
The good news is that falling can be prevented, and the whole family can get involved.
The project is hosted by the Burnaby Fall Prevention Society and is supported and funded by the Seniors Falls and Injury Prevention program at Fraser Health and by the Government of Canada under the New Horizons for Seniors Initiative.
“Safe for Seniors, Safe for All” is an

that are easy to overlook but easy to fix.The project’s goal is to teach children how to prevent falls and make their homes safer for people of all ages. A senior volunteer visits local schools and uses the book to discuss fall prevention practices.The students are given a “Safety Superhero” checklist to complete at home and return to the school. Even students who do not have an older person in their home can complete the checklist of fall prevention practices and be a “safety ambassador” for their family.
We can’t always see it, but we know it’s there...

Javelin throwers both medal at Canadian nationals in Moncton B.C. placed third behind race winner Melissa Bishop of Ottawa and runner-up Karine Belleau-Beliveau of Quebec. Simon Fraser University alumnae Jessica Smith finished in fourth place, while current Clan member and NCAA Division II indoor and outdoor champion Helen Crofts placed eighth. St. Thomas More grad Nigel Hole was a competitive ninth in the men’s 1,500m final, finishing in a time of 3:55.16 – more than four seconds faster than his third-place qualifying time. At the earlier B.C. masters’ track and field championships in Langley, Burnaby’s Tom Dickson, the current SFU sprints coach, just missed breaking the Canadian 100m record in the men’s 60-and-over age group, placng first in a quick time of 12.64 seconds. Burnaby Central grad James O’Kane, the 1994 B.C. high school decathlon champion, set a new men’s 35-and-over record of 5312 points in the multi-event final. Four national records and 14 provincial marks were either bettered or broken at the meet held at McLeod Park.
New Westminster’s Krista Woodward won the women’s javelin at the Canadian track and field championships on Saturday. The New Westminster Secondary School grad tossed the spear 58.59 metres, breaking her own championship meet mark by almost four metres set back in 2007. The Canadian record is held by Elizabeth Gleadle with a distance of 61.15m in 2011. Woodward launched her record throw on her fourth attempt. All four of Woodward’s legal throws were farther than runner-up Chelsea Whalen’s silver-medal best of 51.15m. With her meet-winning toss and a previous best of 60.15m achieved in Tokyo back in May, Woodward qualified for the national team going to the world championships to be held in Moscow in August. She will also take part at the Francophone Games in Nice, France in September. Woodward is currently ranked 20th in the world. London Olympian Curtis Moss of Burnaby placed second in the men’s javelin at the national games held in Moncton, N.B. Moss threw just 75.99m, well off

The Burnaby Lakers parted ways with junior A coach Mike O’Reilly, but the result was still the same. The junior A Lakers took over sole possession of last place in the B.C. Junior Lacrosse League, losing the battle of the bottoms 18-12 to the Nanaimo Timbermen at the Bill Copeland Sports Centre on Sunday. In a familiar scenerio this season, Burnaby fell behind 6-1 to start the first period and could not recover. The following period, the two teams showed precious little defence, exchanging 14 goals between them, including 10 in the first nine minutes. Nanaimo’s Corey Shires and Brett Hawrys did most of the damage, scoring six and seven goals, respectively. “It’s always nice to get that first (win), said Shires, who potted a natural hat trick in a one-minute span of the second period that all but ended any chance of a Burnaby comeback. Hawrys led all scorers with a 10-point outing.
“We’re trying to take the positives with the negatives and work harder,” said the 19-year-old Shires. “Good things happen, like the W.” The loss was Burnaby’s 12th consecutive defeat since edging Nanaimo by a single goal back in May. The Lakers trailed the T-Men by six goals heading into the final period and fell behind by as many as nine goals before Justin Appels, Tyler Kirkby and captain Peyton Lupul all scored to earn their hat tricks. With a lineup made even thinner by the absence of four players at a world field lacrosse qualifying event, Burnaby is not giving up, said Lupul. “I don’t think so. Everyone in the dressing room still wants to play, and we want to get as many wins as possible, even if the playoffs are not in our season,” Lupul said. “We still want to play with some pride and some honour.” General manager Gary Passmore took over the coaching duties for the remainder of the season. Burnaby’s next home game is Sunday against the Victoria Shamrocks. Game time is an early 5 p.m.

Hitter lighting it up in summer West Coast collegiate league Tom Berridge sports editor
Burnaby’s Alex Calbick is off to a hot start in the West Coast collegiate summer baseball league. The University of Maine third baseman currently leads the Bellingham Bells with a .452 batting average and is second in runs batted in with seven in his first eight games this season. Calbick, who played with the Coquitlam Reds of the Premier Baseball League prior to earning an athletic scholarship to Maine, had a big game in the first of a three-game series against the Kelowna Falcons on Friday. The third-year NCAA Division 1 infielder had four hits, including a walkoff single that gave the Bells a 7-6 win over the Falcons in the series opener. He also had a hit and a key run in a game-winning, four-run ninth to help Bellingham win the weekend series against Kelowna with 5-4 victory on Sunday. In 31 at bats to start the summer league, Calbick is tied with a team-best 14 hits, including a double and one home run, while scoring six times for the Bells. At school, Calbick batted .280, with 58 hits and 33 RBI. He also led the Black Bears in putouts with 434. Calbick is one of three players, including pitcher Luke Morrill and Mike Connolly who will sign with the San Francisco Giants later this week, from Maine playing with the Bells. “I’m thrilled that we could get them all the way over here across the country. They

Races will start at approximately 10 a.m. The Cascadia Masters has grown by boat lengths. “Two years ago, we had just over 100 entries,” said Burnaby Lake rowing coach Cinda Ewton. “Last year, the event grew to 425 entries, and we anticipate close to 500 entries next month.” The event, for rowers 21-and-over, is expected to draw rowers from B.C., Alberta and California, Oregon, Colorado, Idaho and Washington states. “Tourism Burnaby is excited to welcome these two events and the 2014 Canadian Masters Regatta
Competitive rowing is returning to Burnaby Lake this summer in a big way. Following on the heels oftherecentannouncement that Burnaby Lake will host next year’s Canadian Masters Championships, Burnaby Lake Rowing Club announced two more events for the lake, one this month and another in July.

Coquitlam then scored four times in a eight-minute spell in the middle frame, sparked by Hickey and Zywicki’s hat trick marker.
