Raccoons feast on her grubby lawn Cayley Dobie staff reporter
City dwellers know all too well how pesky raccoons can be, and a fed-up Burnaby resident wants the city to do something about the little bandits that are destroying her lawn. Linda Cappelletti lives in a cul-de-sac near Halifax Street. For more than a year she’s been attempting to regrow her lawn while the neighbourhood raccoons have been tearing it up looking for food. “You wake up in the morning and you’ll be amazed at what you find,” Cappelletti said. “I was almost in tears, I could not believe what they did to my grass.” Cappelletti put down new sod in her backyard this summer and almost immediately the raccoons were digging it up. In fact, it was so fresh the animals were able to roll the sod up off the ground and get right into the dirt. To discourage the raccoons from digging into her lawn looking for food, she’s put down Raccoons Page 10

B.C.’s AG steers clear of pipeline fight Jennifer Moreau staff reporter
B.C.’s attorney general has chosen not to get involved in the legal dispute between Kinder Morgan and the City of Burnaby, even though the National Energy Board’s Oct. 9 hearing on the matter is precedent-setting and could have wide-ranging implications for other municipalities. Kinder Morgan filed a “constitutional challenge” with the board, hoping to override Burnaby’s bylaw against cutting trees in a city park, so the company can
survey Burnaby Mountain for a new pipeline route. The fundamental question is: Can the federal government, through the National Energy Board, override the City of Burnaby’s bylaw? On constitutional questions, Canada’s attorneys general are invited to participate. But on Friday, the NOW learned B.C. Attorney General Suzanne Anton would not become involved in the case. That means the NEB will decide if it can overrule municipalities, without any provincial government input, even though the provincial government grants the munici-
palities the power to enact bylaws. The upcoming hearing could have implications for other cities facing pipelines in their communities. The NOW requested an interview with Anton, but she was not available and no reasons were given for her decision. Burnaby Mayor Derek Corrigan found the news surprising, especially because the provincial government’s authority is at stake. “That is surprising that the provincial government wouldn’t protect their interest at this hearing, because this is in essence
an attack on the provincial government and their power,” Corrigan told the NOW. “It’s not a matter of them taking sides, it’s about defending their ability to make legislative authority.” Corrigan said the provincial government was “failing to defend municipalities.” “They are allowing a very bad precedent being set,” he said. “This is a confrontation that’s building into something much bigger than the Kinder Morgan pipeline, … it’s a confrontation that’s going to the NEB Page 9

THE FIGHT FOR DEMOCRACY IN HONG KONG
Burnaby man fears for the students Jennifer Moreau staff reporter
I
t was a sign police brought to the recent crackdown on Hong Kong protesters that sent a chill through William Wong. On one side, it warned the crowds of tear gas. On the flip side, it read “disperse or we fire.” All Wong could think was, “Please don’t do anything to hurt the students.” “They are ready to fire,” the Burnaby dentist says. “If you weren’t planning to fire, you wouldn’t prepare the sign to shoot the people.” It’s ominous signs like this that have Wong on edge, worried another Tiananmen-style massacre may unfold in Hong Kong, the region his parents left behind when he was just a teen. “Things happen to us right now, (and) it really triggers déjà vu from Tiananmen Square,” he says. “The scary thing about the communist government is to control the people, they have to use force or use people against people.” The now 43-year-old, dressed in pale blue dentist scrubs, talks with the NOW in the lobby of his Hastings Street dental clinic after hours. His sister is outside, collecting last-minute signatures on a petition calling for Canada to denounce the violence and consider possible trade sanctions against the communist state. The siblings need to deliver the signatures to Kennedy Stewart’s office by 5 p.m., so the Burnaby-Douglas MP can take them back to Ottawa and raise the issue in the House of Commons. At the heart of the conflict is China’s plan to handpick candidates for Hong Kong’s 2017 election, something that doesn’t sit well with Wong. “They let you vote, but they control the candidate,” he says. “It’s fake. It’s a fake election.” The pro-democracy demonstrations started two weeks ago, and police fired tear gas into the crowds while opponents, some believe with underworld ties to

Concerned: Burnaby’s William Wong watched the Tiananmen Square massacre unfold on the news as a teen. Now he’s worried the conflict in Hong Kong, his homeland, could end with another massacre. Wong and his sister were collecting signatures on a petition calling for Canada to denounce the violence and consider possible trade sanctions against the communist state. the government, attacked the protesters. Every year, Wong goes back to Hong Kong to visit family, and he’s noticed China tightening its grip on the region’s affairs – all of which gives him an appreciation for Canada. “I really think we should cherish the democratic system in Canada,” he says. While tens of thousands of demonstrators have been calling for free elections half a world away, Canada’s voter participation numbers remain embarrassingly low. In the last federal election, 61 per cent voted. Provincially, the numbers were lower at 55 per
cent in 2013. Civic elections are the worst, with roughly 30 per cent turnout across B.C. Wong, however, votes in every election – federal, provincial and municipal. “Many people in the world don’t have a chance to vote,” he adds. The Chinese government gave protesters a Monday deadline to clear the streets, and according to the BBC, their numbers have shrunk to 1,000 as student leaders negotiate with government officials. Wong sees that as a hopeful sign, but he’s still worried things could turn violent. “The bottom line is the Chinese government doesn’t

Pipeline emergency plans must be public, NEB rules Jennifer Moreau staff reporter
The National Energy Board has ruled Kinder Morgan must release its emergency management program for the Trans Mountain pipeline, even though the company wanted to keep it secret for proprietary reasons. There are provisions in the NEB Act that allow certain information to be kept confidential if disclosure would compromise security or damage the company’s bottom line. In this case, however, the board ruled public interest outweighed Kinder Morgan’s request to keep the plan confidential. Chris Bowcock, Burnaby’s deputy fire chief, was pleased with the ruling. “It’s good news. The question for me was why they wanted to retain them in the first place. They cited the need for proprietary right, which doesn’t make any sense to me,” he said. “All of the other (hydrocarbon) facilities in the area have openly shared their emergency response plans not only with us but also the community.”
Bowcock, who has experience managing fire hazards in the oil industry, said Kinder Morgan released an emergency response plan several months ago, but it was partially redacted. “We at the fire department have been struggling with the unwillingness for them to share a description of facilities,” he said. “As of yet, they haven’t provided the redacted portions so we have a comprehensive version.” The NEB’s ruling applies to the emergency management program for the current pipeline system, but if the Trans Mountain expansion is approved, Kinder Morgan will also have to consult with “affected parties,” update the plan and release the new version. The board instructed Kinder Morgan to keep any redactions narrow and to provide justifications for them. The cities of Burnaby and Vancouver, the provincial government, the TsleilWaututh Nation, the Upper Nicola Band, and the Tsawout First Nation all wanted to see the emergency management program. The NOW contacted Kinder Morgan but did not receive a response by deadline. twitter.com/JenniferMoreau

OUR VIEW
Clark has been touting the LNG project near Prince Rupert as a one-stop miracle fix for the budget, and jobs for the next decade. The province has almost no room to move. It can lose face with taxpayers or lose taxpayer money in an effort to keep Petronas in the project. It’s not exactly a win-win scenario. Now, some folks might find that this is karma for Clark considering that she had painted the B.C. Teachers’ Federation in a similar corner and used similar tactics. The ‘we-can’t-afford-it’
tactic worked for Clark, and, we predict, it will also work for Petronas. Clark can’t play hard ball without losing Petronas as a player. And if she loses the LNG plant – it will be embarrassing for her and her government. If a bunch of NDP socialists lost the LNG plant the Liberals would be the first to point out that they just don’t know how to do business – but when the supposed experts in trade and business fumble the ball you really have to wonder what they’re good at.
Government needs to give answers IN THE HOUSE

s cases involving government misconduct go, the one concerning the firing of seven B.C. Health Ministry employees is a particularly shabby one. Reputations were besmirched, careers were ruined and in a particularly tragic part of this tale, one employee committed suicide after his lifelong’s work was destroyed. And yet, not a shred of evidence has ever surfaced to support what the B.C. government did to these people. Vague allegations of improper sharing of health-care data and conflict of interest were made, but never proven. Indeed, the government has essentially acknowledged it made a colossal error in this matter by the fact that two of the employees they excoriated were invited back to work, while a third received an out-of-court settlement and a de facto apology. And last Friday (otherwise known as “take out the trash day” around the legislature) the government finally issued an
apology to the family of Rod MacIsaac, who took his own life a few months after being terminated. When the firings were first announced in September 2012, then-health minister Margaret MacDiarmid said she was “shocked” and “deeply troubled and disturbed” by what had apparently been discovered, but since then the government has been backpedalling from its initial actions. However for all that retreating, the government went months without answering questions about its actions. An investigation by privacy commissioner Elizabeth Denham found that improper breaches of information had indeed occurred, but not for nefarious reasons or personal gain and in fact resulted more from unclear guidelines. To his credit, Health Minister Terry Lake (who inherited this mess from his predecessor) has now launched an internal review of the whole affair and has promised to make its findings public. A side issue in this messy affair is that valuable drug research was lost or derailed at a time when that kind of elitelevel research is needed more than ever before. University of Victoria researchers are still waiting to receive data from the Health Ministry that was Health Page 7
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Trustees need to get creative Dear Editor:
Re: Burnaby forced to rethink budget, Burnaby NOW, Sept. 29. Ms. Naylor deserves kudos for drawing attention to looming cuts to district programs and staff. Your readers may already know that in April 2014 secretary-treasurer Greg Frank presented his latest budget: projecting a $4.5-million spending cut for 2015/16 and a $1.65-million spending cut for 2016/17 (before the loss of summer revenue and “savings” clawback). Mr. Frank optimistically assumed that the district headcount would rise by a net of 15 full-time equivalent (FTE) enrolments. This is important because
each net enrolment lost post-strike reduces revenue by $9,033 after averaging all funding allowances. (So each 111 net enrolments lost deepens the deficit by another $1 million.) Events since April have dented this assumption. Expressions of concern from abroad to cancelation of regular and summer school suggest erosion of the perceived quality of public schooling among international students. Acceleration in the observed rate of student “flight” from public to independent schooling suggests erosion in the perceived quality of public schooling among B.C. students. This pressure on the district budget must be countered. The Burnaby First Coalition (BFC) believes that trustees can do more than complain

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Market Burnaby schools continued from page 6
about “frozen” funding while directing administrators to gut programs and cut staff. We challenge the BCA to make public their plan to avoid further cuts. Four of our own ideas for growing district revenues follow: 1. Attract non-enrolling local students: Seven thousand resident children aged five to 18 are not enrolled in a district school. This is nearly one-quarter of the 30,000 children found here in the last census. The BFC has launched a petition aimed at parents of non-enrolling children. We have already identified 60 children (representing $540,000 in expected revenue). We believe that these families see the extra burdens implicit in non-public schooling. We also believe that they would listen if the board began dialogue with them to explore changes in programs, policies or practices intended to encourage them to select district schools. (And more such parents sign each day.) 2. Encourage local parents utilizing distributed learning to register with Burnaby: Districts get funding (about $7,000) from Victoria for each FTE student in a distributed learning program. There are currently between 246 and 296 Burnaby children in distributed learning programs run by independent schools or other districts. They represent perhaps 146 to 188 FTE net new enrolments (yielding $1.3 to $1.7 million in revenue) if their parents can be encouraged to use Burnaby
distributed learning. 3. Find new parent “partners”: Homeschooling parents currently draw no benefit from their school tax dollars, while B.C. districts draw just $250 per child to “supervise” parent teaching. There are 2,000 home-schooled B.C. children, each one potentially sending $7,000 in revenue (total: $14 million) to that board (like Burnaby’s) which persuades their parents to register in distributed learning. Burnaby First Coalition trustees will explore marketing Burnaby distributed learning to homeschoolers. 4. Find new institutional partners: Burnaby has school buildings generating costs as though they are “full” but earning revenue as “partially full,” and three completely empty buildings earning no revenue. Meanwhile, new accredited education providers, like the Traditional Learning Academy (TLA), offer “group” distributed learning programs in “school” space organized by parents. Leasing out empty schools (or empty rooms in active schools) to alternative providers like TLA can increase district revenues in the short-term – while trustees develop more robust marketing programs to fill these empty and partially public buildings with district students. I close by noting that creatively seeking revenue to avoid budget cuts better serves today’s children and staff than sitting in a room blaming Victoria for forcing cuts to programs and staff.

Health: Many questions unanswered suspended two years ago. This case saw the government, yet again, take a bludgeon to the renowned UBC-based Therapeutics Initiative, an independent watchdog when it comes to approval of pharmaceutical drugs for coverage under Pharmacare. But the human tragedy aspect of this affair outweighs the negative impact it had on drug research. MacIsaac was a doctoral student who was doing research on smoking cessation drugs, and at the time of his firing he was excitedly working towards his PhD. Instead, he was effectively bullied out of employment and stripped of the materials he was using to complete his doctorate. According to his sister, Lynda Kayfish, he was confronted by three government investigators in such a belligerent fashion that he suffered severe
S OL D
physical distress in that job-ending “interview.” A few months after losing his contract and perhaps realizing his bid for that PhD was now over, he ended his own life through carbon monoxide poisoning in his Saanich apartment. MacIsaac’s sister paid a tearful visit to the legislature last week, asking that the government simply show some human decency and apologize, and explain itself. The apology has now been issued, but there are still many unanswered questions. A number of key individuals who were involved in this affair – notably MacDiarmid and former deputy health minister Graham Whitmarsh – have left government, but they should be compelled to provide some answers. The internal inquiry is being handled by top-notch labour lawyer Marcia McNeil, so there
is reason to be confident that most, if not all, outstanding questions will be answered. Her report will no doubt prevent any further abuses of process from occurring. Nevertheless, it appears it took Kayfish’s dramatic news conference to force the government’s hand here. The only contact the government had made with her since her brother’s death was sending her a cheque for $483, to cover the last three days of MacIsaac’s contract. Without her holding that news conference (and kudos to the NDP Opposition for arranging it) it seems likely the shroud of secrecy would have continued indefinitely, and MacIsaac’s family would continue to be ignored. All in all, a shabby affair, and one that needs a lot of explaining. Keith Baldrey is chief political reporter for Global B.C.

Burnaby school board accepts Chevron help rejected by Vancouver Cornelia Naylor
editorial@burnabynow.com
“I don’t envy them (the school board) for having to make that decision. I think it’s tragic that we’re even having to even have this discussion.”
staff reporter
The Burnaby school district could get up to $125,000 in education extras from a Chevron fundraising program rejected by the Vancouver school district this spring. The American multinational energy company expanded its Fuel Your School fundraiser – launched in the U.S. in 2010 – into Canada last year, partnering with the Surrey school district and bringing in more than $200,000 worth of equipment and supplies for schools there. The Burnaby school board voted to join the program this year, along with Coquitlam, West Vancouver and North Vancouver. During the month of November, Chevron will donate $1 to an educational charity called My Class Needs every time Burnaby drivers fill up with 30 litres of fuel or more at participating Chevron stations. My Class Needs will then use the money – up to a total of $125,000 for Burnaby – to fund online classroom project requests from local teachers for things like iPads and rocketry kits. The Vancouver school board rejected the corporate funding this spring, saying the company was offering the money “with strings attached” since the Fuel Your School logo would appear at local gas stations. Burnaby school board chair Baljinder Narang, however, said Chevron assured the local board there would be “no advertising and no advocacy within the schools by

She said accepting corporate funding isn’t ideal, but the money will provide innovative teaching resources the district wouldn’t otherwise be able to afford. “We end up asking if it’s reasonable to deny these children this opportunity,” Narang said. “We adults can have our philosophical perspectives, but at the end of the day, we would be looking out for an opportunity for them to experience some innovative learning within a classroom.”
Local parent Peter Cech, who once called Chevron’s North Burnaby operations a “cancerous tumour” that should be shut down if it couldn’t contain its smelly emissions and leaks into the Burrard Inlet, agreed that accepting the corporate help was not ideal but blamed provincial funding. “I don’t envy them having to make that decision,” he told the NOW. “Obviously they’ll have to give it a lot of thought, because what kind of a message does it send? Then again, I think it’s tragic that we’re having to even have this discussion, that the school district even has to think about these things because of the lack of funding from the province.”

Teen charged in fatal shooting in Burnaby Cayley Dobie staff reporter
A 16-year-old boy has been charged in last month’s shooting outside a Rosser Avenue apartment building. The accused, who was carrying a loaded handgun at the time of his arrest, was taken into custody last week by homicide police and the Lower Mainland District Emergency Response Team (Canada’s SWAT team), according to a media release from homicide investigators. “This arrest took place in a very public location within Surrey. At the time he was arrested, the suspect was carrying a loaded firearm. With the assistance of Burnaby
RCMP and the (Lower Mainland District) Emergency Response Team, a quick arrest was actioned in order to prevent potential harm to police and the public,” Staff Sgt. Jennifer Pound in the release. A second-degree murder charge has been approved against the youth, the release confirmed. The 16-year-old Surrey resident, whose name won’t be released because he is a young offender, is accused of killing Aladdin Ramadan outside his Rosser Avenue residence on Sept. 24. The fatal shooting was the sixth shooting in Burnaby this year. Follow Cayley Dobie on Twitter, @cayleydobie
WATERMAIN FLUSHING The City Engineering Department will be commencing its annual program of flushing and cleaning watermains on October 1st to December 19th, 2014. This activity may cause pressure fluctuations, some discoloration and sediment in the water supply reaching your home or business. These conditions should be of short duration and do not pose a health hazard. If your water appears discolored after our crews have finished flushing, clear your water by running a cold water tap.

fundamental nature of democracy in Canada.” The city’s lawyer, Greg McDade, was equally dismayed. “You wonder why they wouldn’t intervene to defend provincial jurisdiction,” he said. “Makes you wonder how sincere they are about protecting the province with their own law, for Kinder Morgan and Enbridge.” The cities of Langley and Abbotsford also wanted to weigh in on the Oct. 9 hearing, but the National Energy Board announced they would not be allowed to
participate, even though they are intervenors in the larger pipeline hearing. McDade said the City of Vancouver was also hoping to participate but the NEB won’t allow it. “I think it’s quite surprising they’ve refused to hear from the municipalities on this issue,” he said. “Other lawyers I’ve talked to are quite surprised by that.” McDade also said the case was precedent-setting. “The NEB has never in history claimed the power to declare municipal bylaws invalid, and that’s what Kinder Morgan is asking them to do here,” McDade said.

Raccoons: Animals digging for chafer beetles in lawns, boulevards continued from page 1
mesh wire to try and protect the new grass. “I basically had to cover the whole back area where I had the sod put in because I wouldn’t have had any sod left, that’s how bad it got,” she said. The raccoons aren’t picky about whose lawn they chow into. Drive down Halifax Street or Kensington Avenue and it’s easy to spot where the critters have been. Most yards on Halifax Street are torn up and scavenged through. But it’s not just private property that’s being targeted by the raccoons. City boulevards that run in front of private residences are also torn up, and Cappelletti is shocked Burnaby isn’t interested in dealing with the mess. “They have done so much destruction in Burnaby, it’s just incredible how much they have destroyed,” she said. “Just drive your car down a block, Kensington, Halifax, you notice that every so often there’s grass that’s completely destroyed.” Cappelletti contacted the city last week but was told the problem was out of their control and to speak with pest control or the Burnabybased Wildlife Rescue Association. Janelle VanderBeek, the care centre coordinator at the Wildlife Rescue Association, said they often get calls about troublesome raccoons but there’s not much they can do about them. “There are deterrents that we can suggest to people, but it is a natural behaviour. It’s not something that we like to deter really,” VanderBeek told the NOW. When the raccoons are digging into lawns, they’re looking for bugs to eat, and quite often the grub they’re after are the European chafer beetles – a relatively new turf pest, which were first reported in New Westminster in 2001. “It’s quite possible there’s a population of that certain type of grub living underneath that person’s lawn and the raccoons are actually, quite likely, serving as a population control eating the grubs,” VanderBeek said. Without the raccoons eating the beetles, VanderBeek said the beetles would likely destroy Cappelletti’s lawn. “With some raccoons, that is their main dietary item, which in comparison to (raccoons) going through your trash and making a mess, it’s kind of a win-lose situation,” she added. Trapping them isn’t an option because more often than not, raccoons that are
trapped and released die because they can’t adapt fast enough to their new environments, according to the Wildlife Rescue Association.
Whatever the solution, Cappelletti wants the city to do something. The City of Burnaby did not return calls to the NOW at press time.
Information pertaining to problems caused by European chafer beetles can be found on the City of Burnaby’s website. The site lists several tips for
getting rid of or reducing their presence, including nematode application, lawn alternatives, and Let it Grow, Naturally (the City of Burnaby’s pesticide use and
control program). For more information on the European chafer, visit tinyurl.com/EuroChafer. Follow Cayley Dobie on Twitter, @cayleydobie

Want to get arty? A
re you interested in the visual arts but just not sure how to get started? Or perhaps you’re an experienced artist but you’re looking to try your hand at a new style or medium? Then the Shadbolt Centre for the Arts has something for you. If you don’t already have a copy, it’s well worth picking up the Shadbolt Centre’s fall Arts Guide, which is packed full of offerings for all ages. Some of the programs have already started for the season, but there are a large number still offered in October and November, so check it out. I offer a few highlights of things that caught my interest: ! Life Drawing: This noninstructional series includes eight sessions that give artists the space and time to hone their life drawing skills with a live, undraped model. Students bring in their own drawing or painting supplies, but easels, drawing boards and clips are provided. Drop-ins are welcome, but you must call 604-291-6864 to reserve a spot. It runs Wednesdays from 7 to 10 p.m. starting tonight (Oct. 8), and the eight sessions cost $80. ! Art Exploration for Adults: This one’s aimed at people new to visual art or those who have been away from it for awhile, and it runs for four Thursdays starting Oct. 9. Participants will get lessons in drawing, painting, collage and simple printmaking in a variety of media: charcoal, ink, watercolour and paint. ! Photography: The centre offers a number of different photography courses, including a one-session Beginning Photography class on Sunday, Nov. 2, and a Photography Personalized workshop also on Sunday, Nov. 2. ! Digital Media: If you’ve been wanting to learn more about iPhoto, iBooks, iMovie and the like, then you’re in luck – the Shadbolt offers sessions in all of those and more.

Living Room Art comes to city Community event brings artists together in the Heights Julie MacLellan staff reporter
Art is not something static that belongs only on gallery walls. It’s a living, breathing thing that permeates every part of life in a community. That philosophy is behind a new event to Burnaby: Living Room Art in the Heights. The Living Room Art event is set for Saturday, Oct. 18 from 5 to 9 p.m. in a private home at 3888 Yale St. The evening is the brainchild of Yunuen Perez Vertti, a filmmaker who moved to Burnaby a year ago from Houston, Texas. Before her husband’s work brought the family to Canada, Perez Vertti worked with an arts organization called Voices Breaking Boundaries in Houston, which ran a series of living room art events. Once she came to Burnaby, she realized that the Heights was just the right kind of neighbourhood for a similar event. “I just felt that this community would be so good for living room art because it’s so artistic here, so community-oriented,” she says. Fittingly, it was art that brought Perez Vertti and her husband to the Heights in the
first place – when looking for a good school for come out. The program for the Oct. 18 evening their two children, they found Confederation Park Elementary and its focus on education includes a dance performance by Tango Burnaby, storytelling by Philomena Jordan through the arts. Perez Vertti says that once she first started and Mia Zhou, musical performances by talking about the idea of living room art, it Veronica Iza and Tara Bonham, and the screening of the documentary After the Vote, caught on quickly. “You just meet one person and tell them directed by Bonnie Kreps. Other participating artists about it and they say, ‘you should include Perez Vertti herself, along talk to this person,’ and you talk “I just felt that with visual artists Cindy Atkinson, to that person and they say, ‘you this community Dino Pai, Beatrix Schalk, Jo Ann should talk to this person,’” she says with a laugh. “The response would be so good Sheen and Michelle Sound, textile artist Michelle Fowlie, and photoghas been great. The community for living room raphers Courtney Tran, Maybelle is just so open to something like this.” art because it’s so Santos and Grant Withers – whose home is being used for the event. She’s putting it on thanks to artistic here, so Though the exact schedule for a Neighbourhood Small Grant communitythe evening has not been set, there from the Vancouver Foundation. will be performances happening Living Room Art is just what oriented.” throughout the four hours, along its name suggests: an evening with visual arts displays. that takes place in a private home, YUNUEN PEREZ VERTTI People are welcome to pop in at with a wide range of artists comfilmmaker any time and stay as long as they ing together to showcase their like – whether that’s five minutes or the whole work in performing, visual and digital arts. Perez Vertti says the fact that it takes place four hours. And there’s no need to buy tickets ahead; it’s free, and it’s a drop-in event. in a private home is important. “It’s kind of like an art party,” says Perez “It has a very different feeling from a museum or an art gallery,” she says, noting Vertti. “It’s a celebration of the community, the idea is to make it comfortable and casual, the artists that live here.” See www.livingroomarttheheights. so that people who might not be comfortable with going to a gallery will feel welcome to wordpress.com for all the details.

Customer service top of mind
By Cayley Dobie
At the edge of the Heights near Boundary Road there is a quaint and unremarkable door, a door that most people would walk right by without even a second glance. But step through the door and you’ll discover a shop that is much more than it seems.
While today the shop is stocked to the brim with samples, it wasn’t always this way, Pocrnic said. “We started with just a couple of small display racks, and now we’ve got so much selection that eventually we’re going to have to knd a bigger location,” he said.

Celebrate Halloween in the Heights
By Casey Harrison, Heights contributor
For most people, October is the month we give thanks for wonderful friends and family and also receive massive amounts of candy; which sounds like the best month! Our Thanksgiving family tradition since childhood has always been a huge gathering, a game of road hockey and enough food to last us for a week. We would start the day by preparing various dinner items like sweet potatoes from a grocer on the Heights, stuffing and, of course, the big turkey from one of the local butchers. We would bring the food over to my grandparents’ home and get ready for our annual game of road hockey. Staying true to the game, we would start by singing the national anthem in the middle of the road and then the game would commence. After the intensity, we would sit down for dinner and enjoy each other’s company, although my grandma never sat down, she was always thinking about others and making sure they had everything, first. After dinner came dessert.
This was my favourite; it was always an assortment of yummy treats, from pumpkin pies to chocolate cake. It is my favourite holiday because I am able to spend it with the amazing people I am lucky to call my family. The Burnaby Heights is all about family. This is why we invite you and your family to dress up and trick or treat with our merchants for Halloween on the Heights on Friday, Oct. 31. From 3:30 to 5:30 p.m., take your children to visit participating neighbourhood merchants along Hastings Street to receive some yummy treats. Make sure to stop by the Burnaby Central Railway at Confederation Park for the Annual Spooky (but not too spooky) Halloween Trains in the Dark. Admission is $2.50 and costumes for both parents and children are strongly encouraged. The train will be running from approximately 6 to 9 p.m. At approximately 8:15 p.m., fireworks will light up the sky at Gilmore Community School. A licensed pyrotechnician will be putting on yet another spectacular display. All of these things put together make for an amazing month of memories. Casey Harrison is the events coordinator with the Heights Merchants Association.

But it’s not only the great customer service that keeps Casa Madera’s customers coming back time and time again, it’s the company’s dedication to the community. Casa Madera is not only a member of the Greater Vancouver Homebuilders’ Association but also a member of the Burnaby Board of Trade and, of course, the Burnaby Heights Merchants Association. “We’re very active with the Burnaby Heights Merchants Association and deknitely we have a close community feel. … we are more of a community-based company,” Pocrnic said.
Casa Madera has relied a lot on word of mouth to help boost business, and Pocrnic is pleased with the result.
“Just being here in the Heights has helped too. We get a lot of people that live in the community that want to help the small boutique stores,” he said. As the hardwood jooring industry continues to jourish, Casa Madera will soon outgrow the label of a “boutique” store, but Pocrnic has no intention of jumping the shark. “There are stores that do it all, but we’ve got a knack for wood and we want to specialize in wood, and so we do, and that’s our little forte,” he said. “We’re good at it.” cdobie@burnabynow.com

COMMUNITY
Food drive helps spread Thanksgiving cheer Hall of fame
HERE & NOW
Jennifer Moreau
W
ith Thanksgiving on this weekend, it’s nice to know local food banks will have more to offer low-income families, thanks to the efforts of dedicated volunteers who spent Sept. 20 collecting donations from Burnaby homes. Every year, a loosely affiliated church group puts on the Thanksgiving food drive across B.C. In Burnaby alone, volunteers collected 6,302 pounds of food. The provincial total was 409,624 pounds, which is lower than last year’s total of roughly 450,000 pounds. Volunteers leave flyers on people’s doorsteps, explaining that they will be back for food bank donations, and anyone wishing to contribute can leave items on the doorstep for pickup. The food is always distributed in the communities where it was collected, so local donations help local families.
New Westminster’s Fraser River Discovery Centre is inducting Burnaby’s Mark Angelo into the hall of fame. Each year, the centre picks one person for the hall of fame, and Angelo was chosen for his life’s work – decades spent on conservation and restoration efforts of waterways. Angelo also started Rivers Day, which has grown to one of the world’s largest environmental celebrations. Angelo said he was excited and honoured to be included in the Fraser River Hall of Fame. “The Fraser is a river that’s dear to my heart. I’ve been active on the Fraser for many years,” he said. “The Fraser River is certainly the heart and soul of our province.” The formal event is set for Thursday, Nov. 6, from 6:30 to 9 p.m., and tickets are $125 (available by calling 604-521-8401 or emailing info@fraserriver discovery.org).
ESL for families
There’s help on the horizon for Mandarinspeaking families struggling with English. The Burnaby Public Library is teaming up with
Education Quest Society to host a workshop on coping strategies families can use for acquiring English. The event covers challenges for ESL students, effective learning resources and methods parents can employ to help their children learn English. The workshop is on Friday, Oct. 10 from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. at the Bob Prittie Metrotown library branch, at 6100 Willingdon Ave. Admission is free, and the workshop will be in Mandarin.
Church hosts music night
Save the date for a night with Celtic musicians Blackthorn at the All Saints Anglican Church on Oct. 23. The church is at 7405 Royal Oak Ave., and the event starts at 7 p.m. Tickets are $15. People can pre-register with the church for an open-mike session before the music starts. Refreshments will be served. For info, call 604-433-0815 or email allsaintsburnaby@gmail.com.

Q. What is retargeting/programmatic display?
Q. What is tooth decay and why does it happen? A. Tooth decay, also known as cavities, is a process where bacteria in your mouth produce erosive acids from the sugars
in your foods, each time you eat and drink. Acids, bacteria, food debris and saliva combine in the mouth to form a sticky white film called plaque. The acids in plaque are what cause cavities. A cavity is the result of acids dissolving the enamel surface of the tooth, creating holes. Beckie Portrait Did you know your mouth is more likely to form cavities up to Dentist, Ocean Dental 30 minutes after the LAST exposure to sugar? So “drink, don’t sip” and consider healthy food and beverage alternatives. Tooth decay is heavily influenced by lifestyle: what we eat and how often, how well we take care of our teeth and the presence of fluoride and other tooth protecting agents in our dental care routine. There are some simple rules that can help you to identify which foods may increase the likelihood of dental caries: Foods or drinks with a high concentration of sugar, Acidic drinks (like pop and sports drinks) with a low pH damage the tooth enamel and cause cavities. Sticky foods that are not easily washed away by saliva increase the exposure of teeth to sugar and acids, and the risk of tooth decay The process of decay is the same for all people, young and old. With Halloween fast approaching we thought this would be a healthy reminder. NO tricks, why not treat yourself to a dental check-up?

ASK A FINANCIAL ADVISOR Q. I am a single parent with non-registered assets, an RRSP,
and 3 adult children. What is the best way to ensure all my children inherit an equal portion of my assets?
A. Designating a beneficiary to your RRSP or RRIF is a good idea,
Brent Vandekerckhove
Financial Advisor, Investors Group
however, there are cases where designating it to your estate is the better option. Consider your options carefully, as probate avoidance could result in some overall savings, but has the potential to create problems and strain relations amongst your children.
Today, Brent assists over 100 individuals, and continues to grow his practice. With over 5 years in business, Brent has earned Pillar awards at Investors Group for Business Excellence in 2011, 2012 & 2013. Brent offers complimentary financial seminars to businesses throughout the lower mainland as part of his mandate to better educate business in BC. His objective is to build invaluable long-term relationships with his clients, helping them accomplish their goals at each stage of their lives.
However, upon your death, your estate will be responsible for paying the income taxes on the RRSP, the capital gain from your investments, and any probate fees. Because there will be no withholding tax on the payment of your RRSP assets, this leaves the 2nd and 3rd child with the entire burden of your estate’s income taxes.The result – one child receives the intended $200,000, while the other two receive significantly less, down to $130,000 each depending on marginal tax rates and provincial probate fees. Beneficiary issues are complicated and sensitive. If you have any questions or concerns on inequitable treatment of heirs, I would be happy to help.

Q. What is the best Omega 3 to take? A. The best Omega 3 to take is the one with the highest eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) content.

For example, if you have $400,000 in non-registered assets with a $200,000 capital gain and a $200,000 RRSP, a common mistake would to be to make one child the direct beneficiary of the RRSP, and divide the rest of your estate equally between the 2nd and 3rd child. The misconception is that this will leave each child with an equal portion of your assets.

There are always a few items that are simply non-negotiable like a private fenced backyard or a home office, but compromise is part of the process. Having an in-depth conversation Jenny Wun Real Estate Specialist about your practical needs versus ‘wants’ in your dream home can help unearth some key priorities and make the entire experience a lot less stressful.

ASK A VET Q. Why does my pet have bad breath? A. Pets have bad breath (halitosis)
for a number of reasons. The most common and most obvious cause is Dr. Jangi Bajwa, DVM – dental problems. The gold standard of oral care for pets is teeth brushing, Hasting Veterinary Hospital mornings and evenings. I recommend brushing a pets’ teeth at least once a day, and getting oral checkups with your veterinarian at least once a year. Depending on their breed, age and oral care program, pets need veterinariansupervised dental cleanings every 1-3 years. Dental diets and dental treats also help maintain good oral health in pets. Other causes of bad breath include gastric or kidney illness and viral infections to name a few. HASTINGS VETERINARY HOSPITAL 3995 Hastings Street, Burnaby 604-291-6666 • www.hastingsvet.com

Concrete poured at B.C.’s biggest Toyota dealership

urnaby politicians and Toyota executives were on hand as concrete was poured at the future site of B.C.’s largest Toyota dealership last week. Opening in the fall of 2015, the new home of Destination Toyota Burnaby will be a threelevel, 90,000-square-foot facility located at 4451 Still Creek Dr. by the Brentwood SkyTrain station and Brentwood Town Centre. Destination Auto Group marked construction of the new dealership with a first concrete ceremony on Oct. 2, featuring Mayor Derek Corrigan, Burnaby-Deer Lake MLA Kathy Corrigan and Burnaby North MLA Richard Lee, along with Toyota Canada Inc. president and CEO Seiji Ichii and vice-president of sales, Larry Hutchinson. Donning hard hats and safety vests, the dignitaries placed a plaque to com-
memorate the occasion. “For 22 years, great service has been at the heart of success at Destination Toyota, and with plans to open a facility that will allow the dealership to better serve the Burnaby community, the best is yet to come,” said Ichii. Destination Toyota’s new Burnaby site will eventually employ 20 additional associates and boast a more spacious showroom, a larger service shop equipped with 28 bays, on-site body shop, automatic car wash, tire centre and other amenities. “As we pour the first concrete today for our brand new store, we envision that the Destination Toyota Burnaby of tomorrow will be well equipped to help us exceed guest expectations and create a meaningful and positive impact in the Burnaby community,” Destination Auto Group president Aziz Ahamed said.

No advantage at home for Steelers Jennifer Thuncher contributor
It was a scrappy three periods of Pacific Junior Hockey League play that didn’t end in the Grandview Steelers’ favour. The Steelers fell 5-2 to the Delta Ice Hawks on Sunday night (Oct. 5) at the Burnaby Winter Club. The win puts the Hawks in a third-place tie with the Steelers in the competitive Tom Shaw conference. A pass from forward Andreas Siagris to rookie Quinten Wideski got Delta on the board at about 12 minutes into the first period. The Steelers rookie Connor Burk, who would eventually earn a third star of the game nod, found the back of the net with an assist from Braeden Gurney at 19:39 in the first. (Grandview has 15 rookies on its roster, while the Hawks team has nine.) The score was tied up 1-1 at the end of the first 20 minutes of play. The only scoring in the second was by Delta rookie, 16-year-old Jake Fletcher, who later earned the second star of the game. The Hawks outshot Grandview 22 to 10 by the end of the second, but Steelers goalie Cole MacInnes and good defensive play by Grandview helped keep the tally from rising higher for Delta. Rather than scoring, the second period was dominated by rough play. Tyler Fraser of the Hawks and

Hot potato: Grandview Steeler Sean Norbury (27) tries to get control of the puck from a Delta Ice Hawks’ player. The Steelers were defeated 5-2 at home at the Burnaby Winter Club on Sunday. Grandview’s six-foot-five defenceman Lucas Mercer both received five minute fighting penalties as well as 10-minute game misconducts at 14:59 in the second. Over the game, there was a handful of roughing and misconduct penalties doled out to both sides. Twenty-five seconds into the third period the Hawks’ Evan Grannary got the first of his three
goals (and the first of his two unassisted) of the night. It was 3-1 for the Hawks. Grandview answered with a goal by rookie defenceman and winter club product Cameron Ginnetti, who was assisted by Timothy Chow and Jordan Hall. A comeback was within reach for Grandview – it was 3-2 for Delta.
It didn’t take long for Delta to cool the fired-up Steelers. Just four seconds after Grandview scored, a fluky goal by Grannary from a center-ice faceoff put the Hawks ahead by two. Grannary’s third in the third completed his hat trick and contributed to his first star of the game nod. What had been a scrappy contest devolved into a bit of a typical grudge
match with plenty of pushing and shoving on the ice and egging on from the stands. Ugly or not, it was a 5-3 finish. The Steelers, and the Hawks, now have a 5-3-0 record. Steelers next take on the Wolf Pack Saturday (Oct. 11) at Harry Jerome Recreation Centre in North Vancouver. The puck drops at 7 p.m.

Twelve-year-old Burnaby soccer phenom Damiano Pecile will be living out of a suitcase for the next few years in order to pursue his dream on the pitch. He will be training with AC Milan, one of the most successful soccer (or football as they call it in Europe) clubs in Italy. While many kids were hitting the beach this past summer, Pecile spent August in Italy at pre-season tryouts for AC Milan. “To be invited to a tryout for

AC Milan is a dream come true for Damiano and is a reality that not many boys his age will ever get to experience,” said his parents in an email to NOW. Pecile was vying for a spot on the Youth Sector Academy for the under-13s. According to Pecile’s parents, after the first day, the manager of the youth sector, Mauro Bianchessi, said the team would welcome Pecile back as a player. “He’s got his foot in the door at one of the most prestigious clubs in European soccer,” read the email.

The Clan football team clinched its first win of the season on the road 29-19 against the Dixie State Red Storm. It was Tyler Nickel’s first start as quarterback with the Clan, and he didn’t disappoint. He went 15-for-21 with a touchdown and an interception for 108 yards. “He did a really nice job,” Chapdelaine said of Nickel. “He threw a nice touchdown down the middle. In his first game he did quite well, and he’ll continue to learn from that.” Ryan Stanford also went six-for-13, for 61 yards. The Clan’s defence stood out, forcing three turnovers. Defensively, SFU wracked up 12 tackles for a loss, including four sacks. (Dixie State had just 15 yards rushing on the game.) SFU’s defence was lead by Mitchell Barnett, who had 11 tackles and Jordan Herdman, who recorded 10. Clan safety Matt Isherwood helped out with five tackles and an interception. “I thought defensively the guys were relentless,” head coach Jacques Chapdelaine said in a press release. “They played really hard and gave us a tremendous lift throughout the game. They made the stops and got their offence off the field.” In the third, Herdman showed the Red Storm how it is done when he wrestled the ball from the Storm receiver. Jordan’s brother Justin Herdman took over and returned 27-yards for the touchdown to make it 17-6 for SFU. Still in the third quarter, Earl Anderson’s 60yard touchdown increased SFU’s lead to 26-6. Dixie State answered with a touchdown to make it 26-13. Clan cornerback Bibake Uppal got his first career interception leading to a season’s best 43-yard field

and ended up having a very satisfying finish.” Russia’s Betina Popova and Yuri Vlasenko won the gold with 147.31 points. Americans Lorraine McNamara and Quinn Carpenter earned silver with 139.35 points, and the Canadians had 130.78 points.

Burnaby’s Simon Fraser University campus will play host to International Taekwondo Federation (ITF) practitioners from all over B.C. on Oct. 12, for the second B.C. Cup Taekwondo Championships. The multi-skill and multi-age event will see taekwondo students compete for gold in various events such as sparring, patterns, power and specialty breaking (always a great spectator sport). “Taekwondo is not just a martial art, it’s a way of life for most of us. We practice Taekwondo in our daily living,” Darius Andaya, International Taekwondo Federation instructor and fourth Dan (a technical term for rank), told the NOW by email. In addition to competing for medals, students will compete for trophies for, among others, top junior and senior athletes. The top school represented at the competition will earn the B.C. Cup trophy.
With the 2015 World Junior and Senior Championships in Italy fast approaching, the junior and senior black belt competitions at the SFU event are expected to be especially hotly contested as the best in B.C. try to outdo each other with the hopes of earning a spot on Team Canada. New this year is the challenger pattern division, a non-combat competition for athletes with physical or mental disabilities. According to Andaya, the division was created to promote an equal playing field for athletes. “This is to expand on General Choi Hong Hi’s (founder of taekwondo) philosophy of teaching everyone willing to learn regardless of religion, race and ideology,” said Andaya in a press release. The competition will be held in the West Gym starting with opening ceremonies at 8:30 a.m. Admission is free.
