Crimson tide rolls into Burnaby Terry Beech wins Burnaby NorthSeymour for Liberals Jennifer Moreau

jmoreau@burnabynow.com

A piece of Burnaby the NDP has held since the Svend Robinson era has gone to the Grits.Terry Beech took a 3,500 vote lead Monday night as Burnaby North-Seymour got caught up in the wave of momentum that swept the Liberals to a majority government.

“I feel absolutely humbled, so much gratitude for everybody that helped make this happen,” Beech said from a packed and noisy room at Joey’s restaurant on Lougheed Highway.

“I’m going to roll up my sleeves and start to get to work for the people of Burnaby North-Seymour,” he added.

“I just want to thank all the voters in Burnaby North-Seymour for supporting me, and I just want them to know I ran on being a strong representative for our community, and I plan to keep that promise. I plan on being one of the hardest-working, most visible and accessible MPs we’ve had in this riding.”

Beech, who held a strong lead from the start, attributed the Liberal win on NDP turf to the new riding boundaries, leader Justin Trudeau’s campaign and “a lot of hard work on the ground.”

It was nearing midnight Monday, and with a race too close to call in Burnaby South, supporters at Kennedy Stewart’s campaign office were given some incentive to stick it out a little longer.

They were offered a

round of drinks on the house.

While the announcement elicited cheers, there was a much bigger applause in the room about half an hour later when the NDP candidate claimed victory.

“When you lose … it’s because of you, but when you win it’s because of your team,” he said.

While Stewart held on, the national results were a near disaster for the NDP. The party won just 44 seats in Ottawa.

“Canadians clearly wanted change, and they got it, and that’s what happened.

We (the NDP) just didn’t happen to be that change,” he said.

New Democrats happy Harper’s gone

By Jennifer Moreau

jmoreau@burnabynow.com

The wave of Liberal support that swept the country Monday night has loosened the NDP’s grip on Burnaby, but local Burnaby Citizens’ Association members are just happy Stephen Harper is gone.

“We felt the early, early prediction of New Democrats doing well across the country wasn’t going to hold, but I certainly wasn’t prepared for the way the Liberals swept the county,”

said Burnaby city councillor Sav Dhaliwal.

“I had expected it would be a Liberal government but a minority government and New Democrats would have a chance to work with them,” he said. “It wasn’t a rejection of the NDP as much. I think it was a rejection of the Harper agenda, and the Liberals were beneficiaries of that.”

The Burnaby Citizens’ Association holds all of Burnaby’s city council and school board seats, and the members are all New Dem-

ocrats.

Dhaliwal said the NDP lost some ground, as Burnaby South almost went to the Liberals, and he was expecting North BurnabySeymour to be between the Conservatives and NDP, as Kennedy Stewart won the former Burnaby-Douglas riding in 2011 but also on a thin margin.The riding changes that created Burnaby North-Seymour added a piece of the right-leaning North Shore to Burnaby, something Dhaliwal said was a game-changer.

School board chair Ron Burton echoed Dhaliwal’s sentiments; he did not expect Burnaby South to be so close. (Stewart hung on by just 1.2 per cent in a nailbiting race with polls coming in close to midnight.)

“I was surprised that Kennedy Stewart barely held on, and I think he’ll consolidate it over the next couple of terms. He fought a big red wave that was happening. I think people wanted Harper (out),” he said.

Burton, who was expecting a Tory victory in Burn-

aby North-Seymour, was surprised the Liberals took the riding, which he attributed to Justin Trudeau’s campaign.

“He did a tremendous job,” Burton said, citing one particular Trudeau ad as the best he’s ever seen in politics. “I felt like going out voting for him after that, and everyone I’ve talked to said that was just an incredible ad.”

According to Burton, the NDP misstepped with its core values by promoting a balanced budget.

“It puts us in the same field as Harper.We had to differentiate ourselves from the Conservatives, and too many of our promises were down the road,” he said.

Burton didn’t think Monday night’s results will change Burnaby that much.

“I think Terry Beech will be a good representative. I haven’t heard anything to the contrary about it, and of course Kennedy Stewart and Peter Julian will be good representatives,” he said. “The big victory is that Harper’s gone.”

‘We showed we definitely could have won’

Continued from page 1 and his party will be holding the new government to account.

“I’m sure the Conservatives will be in complete disarray, so it will be up to us to be a force there in Ottawa,” he said.

Just a five-minute drive away at his campaign office on Kingsway, Pankratz was reflecting on the close loss.

He was thrilled with the results of the party nationally, suggesting people responded to the positive message and campaign. Pankratz said he was also proud of his own effort locally.

“We did incredibly well.

Nobody gave us a chance in the riding and we showed we definitely could have won,” he said, also crediting the NDP for running a good campaign.

Even though the early results from Monday night had the Liberal in the lead with a few hundred votes, he said he never thought he had a win in the bag.

As for his future, the 32-year-old isn’t ruling out the possibility of staying in politics.

“For me it’s been a great experience.When or what the future holds, I don’t know,” Pankratz said.

It was a similar sentiment

from Conservative candidate Grace Seear, who finished third with 12,441 votes, or 27 per cent.

The Conservative-stafferturned-candidate said she was surprised by the national results, adding she feels sad about outgoing Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s own fortunes on election night more so than her own.

Seear also congratulated Stewart on his victory and thanked her own team for their work on the campaign.

“I hope they understand it’s not their defeat,” she said, adding she has time to consider her own political future.

So close: Liberal candidate Adam Pankratz lost a close-fought race with Kennedy Stewart in Burnaby South. PHOTO JEREMY DEUTSCH

Seear said when she was door knocking earlier in the campaign, she didn’t get a

sense the Liberals would provide as much competition.

“I think they (voters) were looking for change,” she said.

Rounding out the election results were the Green’s Wyatt Tessari, who received 1,306 votes, and the Libertarian candidate Liz Jaluague, who netted 498 votes.

As for voter turnout in the realigned Burnaby South riding, a total of 45,886 people voted out of the 75,263 registered electors.

That was good for a 61 per cent voter turnout, but below the national average of 68.5 per cent.

Harper’s ‘spectre’ haunts the Greens Strategic voting may have cost fourth party a chance to make a breakthrough, says Burnaby candidate Cayley Dobie

cdobie@burnabynow.com

Despite glum results for Burnaby’s Green party candidates, cheers still rang out through the Admiral Pub on Monday night as a group gathered to watch the election results come in.

Of Burnaby’s three federal ridings, only Burnaby North-Seymour’s Green candidate Lynne Quarmby was able to secure more than five per cent of the votes.

Quarmby was calm and collected as she entered the Admiral Pub. Her supporters cheered and applauded the SFU professor, waiting their turn to greet the fourth-place finisher.

I believed, when I set out to do this, that I could win, and I still think I could have won

“To be honest, it was the worst-case scenario. I didn’t expect it to be this bad,” she told the NOW when asked what she thought of the results in Burnaby NorthSeymour.

“I believed, when I set out to do this, that I could win, and I still think that I could have won, but the key thing that was missing was enough other people also believing that I could win,” she added. “I think that if enough other people could have believed, we might

have been able to make it happen.”

When asked what she thought went wrong, she said she and her fellow Green candidates were hit hard by strategic voting.

Like other Green candidates in Burnaby ridings, Quarmby encountered many people during her campaign who told her they wanted to vote Green but were too afraid to, fearing it would split the vote in favour of Conservative candidate Mike Little.

“I tried to tell them that if everybody who said that actually voted Green, we would do great,” she said.

But fear was too great in the newly minted riding of Burnaby North-Seymour, according to Quarmby.

“This election it was the strategic voting to get rid of Harper. I think people were so afraid of Harper, that that dominated everything,” she said.

“I think we’ll do much better next time, when we don’t have that spectre hanging over us. I think the spectre of Harper is what killed us this time,” she said.

Whether that next time includes first-time candidate Quarmby, it’s too early to say.

The SFU professorturned-activist and now political candidate said it was still all too fresh.

“I think I had a big impact at every debate, at every event. I think that was a really important thing,” she said.

Looking forward, however, Quarmby said she’ll be keeping an eye on the newly-elected Liberal party, including successful Burnaby North-Seymour candidate

Terry Beech, who won with 18,742 votes, according to Elections Canada’s preliminary results – especially when it comes to certain promises regarding the environment and the contentious pipeline review process.

“I feel that the Liberal candidate in this riding ran a really excellent campaign, and I would like to congratulate him. I think that he’s a good guy, he’s very hardworking, he earned the win,” she said.

OTHER GREEN CANDIDATES SUFFER TOUGH LOSSES Green party candidates in Burnaby South and New Westminster-Burnaby were upbeat Monday in the face of two tough defeats.

In New WestminsterBurnaby, first-time candidate Kyle Routledge finished with a preliminary result of 4.9 per cent of the votes or 2,559 cast in his favour.

Wyatt Tessari, Green candidate in Burnaby South, meanwhile, secured 1,306

votes – 2.8 per cent of the vote.

“I think the strategic voting worked beyond what people expected, and in essence I think they missed their objective of going for a minority,”Tessari said.

Tessari echoed Burnaby North-Seymour candidate Lynne Quarmby’s thoughts that the threat of another government led by Stephen Harper was too much for voters and so many chose to vote strategically, which hurt the Greens greatly.

But that doesn’t mean it’s

the end for the Green Party.

In fact, it’s more like the beginning,Tessari said.

“It’s going to come,” he added.

And Routledge couldn’t agree more.

“Even the biggest waves start really small, and I think a big wave is building and it might take a few more elections but the momentum is there,” Routledge said over the phone late Monday night.

Opinion now OUR VIEW

Dear Mr. Trudeau: Don’t get cocky Dear Mr.Trudeau: Well, that was an exciting night.We have to thank you for keeping it interesting for us all – not just here in Burnaby but right across the country.

And we couldn’t help but watch with interest as you set out your vision for a new, positive, forward-looking future for our nation.

We just want to make a polite suggestion.

Don’t get cocky.

We know, we know, you

managed to pull off a miracle, what with turning 36 measly seats into a majority government.

Not since that whole five loaves and two fishes thing has someone managed to parlay so little into so much for so many so quickly.

But don’t think for a second that the victory was all about you. It was about a whole lot of factors – and those factors weren’t all as pretty as your perfectly coiffed hair.

It was about Canadians being mad as heck at Stephen Harper and his Conservative Party’s divisive campaign.

It was about strategic voting and Canadians rallying around those they saw as the most likely candidates to defeat those above-mentioned Conservatives.

It was about the fact that you entered the campaign in third place and had really nothing to lose by putting it all on the line – unlike your

rival on the left,Tom Mulcair, who clearly buckled under the pressure of having to prove he had the gravitas to govern the country.

It was about the fact that your campaign team was clever at coming up with ways to turn all the attacks on you to best advantage.

(If there is a person in the country who hasn’t made at least one “nice hair” joke in the past couple of months, we’d be surprised.)

And, yes, it was about

you.You answered your doubters (and they were legion) by proving yourself to be more shrewd, more savvy and more solid than many gave you credit for – and you managed to remain likeable and upbeat throughout.

That was no mean feat, and we congratulate you.

Now we have one request: Do it. Follow through on what you’ve promised us.

Start with electoral reform. Don’t let the fact that

you managed to pull off a first-past-the-post miracle dissuade you from realizing that Canadians deserve a better system that gives more representation to all the voices of this proud nation.

And, step by step, lead us forward into that future of hope, optimism and positive cooperation you’ve promised us.

We’re counting on you.

Please don’t let us down.

MY VIEW KEITH BALDREY

Campaigns matter, a lot

Whenever Premier Christy Clark is asked to account for her surprising, comefrom-behind victory in the 2013 provincial election, she invariably replies “campaigns matter.”

It’s a view that is now no doubt shared by the three major federal party leaders, who this week finished an epic 11-week marathon campaign themselves. Public opinion about the three of them seemed to shift, swing and move remarkably as the campaign wore on.

I’m filing this column the day before the vote, so I have no idea which of them won. But all indications were pointing to the Liberals’ Justin Trudeau winning and the Conservatives’ Stephen Harper besting the NDP’s Tom Mulcair when it came to votes and seats won.

This, of course, is exactly the opposite of the scenario marking the beginning of the campaign and shows the campaign itself does indeed matter – a lot.

The NDP’s Mulcair, at the start, was the man to beat. Harper looked spent, and Trudeau was miles behind. All signs pointed to an historic NDP victory.

And then people started to pay attention.

That’s another one of the points Premier Clark’s insisted was true when she was being counted out of it in the months before the 2013 vote: “People don’t pay attention to politics until the campaign is well under way.”

Much of what passes

for political debate in this country – question period, talk shows, political panels – is eagerly gobbled up by those with a keen interest in politics. But the majority of folks do not fall into that category and go out of their way to essentially ignore “politics” whenever they can.

During an election campaign, however, those people take out their earplugs and stop averting their eyes, and begin assessing things.

And when they started doing that, public opinion seemed to shift: the Liberals’ popularity started to grow, and the NDP’s began to shrink.The Conservatives, meanwhile, were stuck in neutral for the most part since the campaign began.

Because expectations were so low for Trudeau (and set so low, ironically, by the Conservatives’ “he’s not ready”TV ad campaign) he had the most room of the three to grow in popularity, and he did just that.

As I mentioned, I’m filing this before the votes are counted. But I’ll wager when they are, many folks will come to the same conclusion about one thing: campaigns matter, because that’s when voters really start paying attention.

What seemed like reality at the beginning turned out to be anything but, because the campaign itself determined the election outcome – not the warm-up game preceding it.

Mysterious robocalls spark heated debate

Dear Editor Re: Why do we need so many teachers for today’s classrooms? Letters to the editor, Opinion, Oct. 9.

Garth Evans has fallen into the usual trap of assuming that because he attended school he’s developed a full understanding of the challenges facing today’s teacher. Is he also an expert in anatomy because he’s visited the clinic?

The provincial government claims Grade 1 class sizes average 21.5 – and this is with one teacher in charge. Maybe two teachers appear in the class photo published because they each work I … listening to part-time. can assure you there is the teacher no 10:1 studrone on is so dent to staff ratio.

1956.

What other differences were there in 1956? Fewer autistic children, children with ADHD, children who don’t speak English, children from singleparent families, over-scheduled, anxiety-ridden children, children damaged by cyberbullying, children addicted to their smart phones and game consoles, sleep-deprived children staying up late at night watching YouTube/ social media, and children lured by gangs and party drugs. Children were not raised on a diet of genetically-modified food stuffed with additives and hormones.

Children could be packed into classrooms in 1956 because corporal punishment was the norm. Ask anyone who went to school in the “old days” how much misbehaviour was tolerated. Parents accepted corporal punishment – they didn’t call the police. They didn’t sue the school district. They also sided with the teacher if they reported cheating or misbehaviour – they didn’t rush, lawyer-like, to defend their child.

Neither were teachers required to make school fun, interesting and entertaining. In 1956 children were there to memorize the information presented to them and later regurgitate it. Nowadays teachers must complete with a world of selfies, likes, and a customer base that demands instant gratification.

Sitting in neat rows and listening to the teacher drone on is so … 1956.

bill smith Harper? What does this have to do with Harper? In all likelihood, the calls came from Chicago... as per the above article, BCA is working on NDP campaign, apparently Obama’s team is also helping the NDP too. Maybe it is from lead-now... they were outed in the Province for being an NDP front group and according to their own web-site, 25% funded from ‘special projects’ and 20% funded from outside Canada... anyhow, it hardly matters, NDP is 3rd in all provinces except Quebec where Liberal and NDP are even. (source, CBC poll tracker, Oct 15th).

Ziggy Eckardt I think I will get used to your comments, bill smith. Keep them coming. But, please, do not get disappointed because facts and the truth do not cut it with the Burnaby NDP.

Dear Editor Thank you for sharing Sandy Labinsky’s letter with your readers.

The most heart-warming story written

by Sandy about our Mountie who showed a REAL CLASS when he came to talk with her, when some riff-raff was chasing her in Burnaby long time ago. Mounties are under tremendous pressure, day in day out, doing their job. He spoke to her like an adult, rather than a child. Our Mountie made a huge difference in Sandy’s life, and she has become a very responsible police sergeant in the City of Henderson in Nevada. She has become an exemplary example for lot of young ladies.

Good deeds are worth remembering, and I truly hope she finds her Mountie to thank him.

Only one of Burnaby’s three New Democrat MPs had an easy time of it on Monday night.

New Westminster-Burnaby MP Peter Julian easily clinched a seat in the House of Commons as a red wave of Liberals swept to power across the country.

Julian, who has served as

MP since 2004, was elected as the member of Parliament for the newly created New Westminster-Burnaby riding.

While he was disappointed with the NDP’s results at the national level, he said he was not entirely shocked.

“We certainly saw in the last few weeks there was a lot of push around the Liberals,” he said. “Certainly on the doorstep it felt good,

things were very strong. But people were making up their minds at the last minute.”

New Westminster MLA Judy Darcy was among the supporters at Julian’s election party at the Columbia Theatre in downtown New West on Monday night. She said the city will still be well represented by a wonderful member of Parliament.

Newsnow ‘Stop Harper’ vote won Continued from page 8 Harper gone. Justin Trudeau developed some momentum. Once people decide that that is the best chance of defeating Harper, that’s where they go,” she said. “The Stop Harper (vote) was very, very strong.”

Julian concurs.

“I think Mr. Harper has been such a divisive force in our country that that became priority No. 1,” he said. “Mr.Trudeau must be congratulated for his victory and then the question is, is he going to continue Mr. Harper’s agenda, which he seemed to want to do in a number of areas, or is he going to make a clean break?

Only time will tell.”

Julian said New Democrats will be fighting to make sure Canadians get real change the vast majority of people were looking for.

“I am very concerned about the health-care system,” he said. “Mr. Harper has opened up a gaping hole – $36 billion. It starts in about 14-and-ahalf months. Mr.Trudeau didn’t seem to want to address that issue.We are talking about a sizable gutting of the health-care budget. I was with my father last week for an emergency – we had to wait five hours before he could get a painkiller.That’s not because the staff aren’t working hard; they are working incredibly hard. It’s because the cutbacks are al-

ready having an impact.”

Julian said he’s worried what the pending cuts to the health care budget will mean to Burnaby and Royal Columbian hospitals, so that will be an issue New Democrats will be championing in the House of Commons.

With polls showing the NDP in the lead earlier in the campaign, Monday’s election results were a blow to New Democrats, who were reduced from their high of 103 seats in 2011 to just 44.

“I think we will probably spend a lot of time analyzing what happened in this campaign, what was done right, what was done wrong,” Darcy said. “I think the overriding factor is that people wanted to get rid of Stephen Harper. People went with who they thought had the best chance of de-

feating Stephen Harper.”

Those sentiments were echoed by New Westminster Coun. Jaimie McEvoy, who said the “anti-Harper Party” won and consolidated around the Liberals. He said there is still a public perception that the Liberals are the alternative government to the Conservatives.

“The Anti-Harper Party won,” he said.

As for Julian, McEvoy said he does tremendous constituency work.

“He is one of the hardest working people I know in politics,” he said.

“You’ll never find him sitting around during an election campaign. He knocks on more doors than anybody. Nobody can keep up with him. If I go knocking on doors with Peter Julian, I know I have to be fit and be ready.”

‘We live to fight another day’ Continued from page 1 for, the numbers showed Beech with 18,742 votes, the NDP’s Carol Baird Ellan garnered 15,225, and Conservative Mike Little took in 14,558. Green candidate Lynne Quarmby earned 2,695 votes.

The Liberals now hold a majority nationally with 184 seats; the minimum they needed was 170.

As for the Tories’ campaign, Little said the party struggled part way through and saw numbers drop, but the Conservatives brought forward new ideas and those numbers picked up again. He also tipped his hat to the Liberals, which he said ran a strong campaign by catching the energy and putting the Tories on the defensive.

“When you are defending, you are losing,” he said from Seymour’s Pub Monday evening, as the numbers were starting to come in.

Later that evening, Little gave his concession speech and thanked those who stepped up and donated

money. Little said he would call Beech to congratulate him.

“But it’s a very hard day for us because both nationally and locally we’ve suffered a big defeat here,” he said.

Baird Ellan declined a visit from the NOW, as it was late in the evening, but she did grant a phone interview.

“The voters have spoken, and I respect their decision,” she said. “I have called Terry to congratulate him on a

campaign well run.”

Baird said there was a fair amount of undecided voters in the riding and a strong anti-Harper sentiment, but she was unsure if strategic voting played a role in the Liberal shift.

“The other candidates in the riding were all great.

They fought a really hard (campaign), and I was honoured to be in their company,” she said.

“We live to fight another day,” she added, but

when the NOW asked if that meant she would run again, she replied, laughing: “That’s like asking a woman who just gave birth if she wants to have another baby. All I can say is I’ve thoroughly enjoyed being in the company of all the people I worked with on this campaign, and I hope to see more of them.”

On Tuesday, Beech was refusing interviews with major media outlets because he wanted to thank all his volunteers first, although he did pick up the phone when the NOW called to check in.

Beech got his start in politics as a teenager and was first elected as a Nanaimo city councillor at just 18 years old.

Armed and fabulous: From left, Byrne Creek student Karli Robinson, drama teacher Robyn Temple, student Lola Jecmenica and community instructor Damon Jang model some of the costume pieces and props their theatre company has to offer to revellers still looking for the perfect Halloween costume. The department is renting and selling some of its surplus costume and prop stock to raise money for upcoming productions of Peter Pan and Cinderella. Last year, the entrepreneurial endeavour raised $700.

Still looking for the perfect Halloween costume?

Byrne Creek Secondary School’s drama department has what you need – and it won’t cost you a fortune.

“We’ve got everything from Harry Potter to pirates, fairies, medieval,” community theatre instruc-

tor Damon Jang told the NOW. “Of course, people don’t have to be strict with these kinds of things. If you want to be a zombie-fairypirate, let’s do it.The imagination is really up to the patron.”

For the second year in a row, the theatre department has opened up its costume and props collection for Halloween revellers to rent

and purchase.

Proceeds will go towards the school’s productions of Peter Pan in December and Cinderella in May. As a community school, Jang said Byrne Creek also has a duty to keep its rental and purchase prices affordable.

“We want to try to help the community by keeping prices low and ensure every-

one has a rocking Halloween regardless of their financial situation,” he said.

The department took in $700 from the initiative last year.

This year, the tally is already up to about $600, thanks mostly to the department’s big collection of Harry Potter items, amassed during its production of Hogwarts a couple years ago.

Organizers of a Harry Potter party at UBC snapped up about $500 worth of the props, costumes and custom set pieces, according to Jang.

Anyone looking to rent or buy from the Byrne Creek collection can visit the drama department at the school (7777 18th St.) on Tuesdays and Thursdays between 3 and 6 p.m.

“There’ll be racks of costumes to look at, and if there’s nothing that you see, we can look at building a costume for you with pieces,” Jang said.

Girls talk confidence at upcoming workshop Tereza Verenca

editorial@burnabynow.com

When young girls – somewhere between the ages of nine and 13 – use social media, Julianne Nieh wants them to keep one thing in mind: don’t compare yourself to the sometimes-almost-flawless Instagram photos or the boastful Facebook posts.

“We’re looking at other people’s lives, their successes, which is excellent, but the way we’re looking at it is like, ‘Why can’t we be like that?’” 17-year-old Nieh told the NOW. “I think that’s been a problem.”

To help curb those kind of self-esteem issues and everything else that comes

with being a tween, the Grade 12 student has organized a month-long workshop called Girl Code, scheduled to kick off on Oct. 24 in Burnaby.

The goal, she said, is to create a “supportive environment” where young girls can share personal stories and opinions about confidence, open-mindedness, determination and empowerment (c-o-d-e).

Each week, Nieh, with the help of some guest speakers, will focus one of the four topics, getting creative by using visions boards and brainstorming methods.

“I don’t want this to be me teaching them how to be but rather to open them up to these new insights

they may not have known before,” said Nieh, who lives in Burnaby but goes to school in Vancouver. “Like what do you think of confidence? What do you think confidence is? … Really getting their opinion. By the end, I want girls to feel like they are capable of making a difference in their lives.”

While never having been severely bullied in school, the honour-roll student admitted she has struggled with self-esteem in the past. It wasn’t until reading books like The Secret that a lightbulb went off.

“It helped me realize that it’s really my thoughts that kind of determine how I see myself and how others may see me as well.”

Julianne Nieh Girl Code organizer

This summer was when the idea for Girl Code turned into a reality. Nieh volunteered with Sole Girls – also an empowerment group, but one that focuses on living healthy, active lives – in Coquitlam.

“After that, I just thought,

‘What can I do for my city?’

I wanted to focus more on mindset and having a positive mindset because that has really helped me more comfortable at school,” Nieh explained.

With a little help from the non-profit group, Canadians forYouth Leadership and Action, Nieh began putting things into motion, like making posters and finding a location.

“It has been challenging to organize, but it has also helped me to manage my time because everything was a learning experience,” she enthusiastically said.

She added she’d eventually like to see the workshop grow into a conference next year, one that can hopefully

attract speakers who inspire the younger generation.

As for comparing herself to her peers on social media, the teenager takes it with a grain of salt.

“Some people don’t realize yes, they only post the best things, but they may also be having other issues that they don’t share,” she said. “We should use social media not to compare; rather, to look at it as motivation for ourselves.”

Girl Code runs from Oct. 24 to Nov. 14 every Saturday between 10:30 a.m. and noon at MLA Raj Chouhan’s community room, at 5234 Rumble St.There is a $20 registration fee ($10 for a second child).To register, visit leadandact.org.

Remember when? School buries a time capsule Cornelia Naylor

CLASS ACT

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

The University Highland Elementary kindergar-

ten class of 2015 will get a chance to reminisce about the good old days when they move on to high school eight years from now.

The school buried a time capsule this month that will

be opened in 2023, when the current kindergarteners graduate from elementary school.

Each University Highland classroom – 11 in all – contributed items, includ-

ing drawn portraits of all the school teachers, salmon habitat preservation techniques, glass art, paintings, press clippings and soccer balls. Several classes also included information about

Terry Fox, having recently completed the annual Terry Fox run.

The time capsule event Oct. 14 marked the school’s five-year anniversary.The celebration was also an ac-

knowledgement of the UniverCity community’s 10year anniversary and the 50th anniversary of Simon Fraser University.

Community now Green Events Program branches out to elementary schools Continued from page 17 GREEN CATCHES ON A student-led green initiative that started at Alpha Secondary School has branched out into two local elementary schools.

The Green Events Program – started by Alpha Grade 12 student Tomas Lang when he was in

Grade 10 – promotes a “reduce before recycling” approach. It’s designed to cut waste at school events, like meetings, grad parties and barbecues, with reusable event-material libraries, including ceramic dishes, metal utensils and decorations.

Over the last three years,

the program has loaned out almost 7,000 reusable plates, utensils and cups for Alpha events, diverting waste from the landfill and saving the school about $300.

With $5,000 raised through an Indiegogo crowdfunding campaign and matching funds from

Ashoka Canada, the program has also recently donated $700 worth of reusable events materials each to Inman and Capitol Hill elementary schools.

Board of trade wants change to sales tax Group lobbies for tax credits on business investments Jeremy Deutsch

jdeutsch@burnabynow.com

It’s been more than two years since the harmonized sales tax was repealed and the two-tax system of the GST and PST was brought back into the province.

Now, the group that represents local businesses is hoping the time is right for provincial government to consider changes to the current tax regime.

The Burnaby Board of Trade is calling on the province to “fix” the provincial sales tax by removing the tax on key business investments in new equipment, machinery and software with the creation of a refundable input tax credit.

The board made the submission to the standing committee on finance at budget hearings as part of the 2016 provincial budget consultation process.

The board is hoping to see at least some implementation of a refundable input tax credit in the 2016 budget, with the goal of eventually phasing in a full seven per cent PST input tax

Because of our changing weather, fall is now the safest time to plant trees and shrubs or move them.They all need several months of moisture to settle in and so far our winters provide that.

Grass is continuing to grow and people with vegetable gardens can use grass clippings as a nitrogen-rich weed-blocker. Grass clippings are also a great nursery for earthworms.

Fall rye is another useful cover for winter veggie beds.

leaves the soil soft and workable once the top growth has been cut and composted. Just don’t let it go to seed.

Leaves make yet another good mulch, though they tend to blow around until they’re thoroughly moistened or rained on.They add valuable carbon when they’re layered-into compost.

Some gardeners bag their leaves and gradually add them to compost through the winter. An easier alternative to bags is hoops of small-mesh wire netting. A twist-tie top and bottom is usually enough to complete the encirclement.

Leaves also make a good mulch for shrubs and perennial flower beds. If some perennial stems and seedheads have been left for birds to forage on, these form a loose barrier to stop leaves from taking flight again.

Once leaves have fallen and you can clearly see the shape of deciduous trees and shrubs, it’s a good time to prune. In fact some trees should be pruned in late fall or early winter because they’re “bleeders” and can drip sap for weeks if they’re pruned in spring when sap is on the move anyway.

These “bleeder” trees include birches, maples, laburnums, magnolias, honey locust, lirodendron and willow. Interestingly enough, with sugar maples and birches, the bleeding tendency has been exploited so that today we have maple syrup and birch syrup.

Climbing roses are also best pruned now, cutting back smaller side branches a few buds away from the main frame. Most other rose bushes are best left until late January or early February when the buds begin to swell and redden.

It’s the perfect time to plant trees and shrubs ered.Then you’ll need to prune some top growth to keep your plant in balance.

Bulbs and tubers of tender plants need to be taken into inside storage.These can include dahlias, gladiolus, canna lilies and calla lilies. Predictions are for a warm winter, but leaving them outside may mean checking the weather forecast every day to find out when you need to bring them in.

More uses process to tame Panthers No. 2-ranked Terry Fox to give football Knights a huge test on Friday in Coquitlam Dan Olson

dolson@burnabynow.com

If the process is in place, success follows.

The St.Thomas More Knights are building a case to be included in the top-five rankings, following a solid 29-7 victory over the Lord Tweedsmuir Panthers last Friday.

While the Surrey school is not a contender – still winless and having scored just 15 points over three games – the best sign for STM coach Bernie Kully was how the team responded from a disappointing result last week.

Most of the positive signs were reflected in the week of practice preparing for the Panthers.

“I’ll take it, it was a good win,” said Kully. “The week previous our practice was terrible and it showed in the game (a 14-14 tie

with Mount Boucherie) but we Defensively, Bellini registered came back to it, practiced harder seven tackles and Nico Cesarei and brought that to the game (Fri- picked up five tackles and three day).” sacks.

work effort,” he noted. “We’re growing as a team. … I think we still have a lot of ways to improve in continuity on both sides of the ball.”

A true test comes this Friday,7:30 p.m. at Coquitlam Town Centre park where STM battles No. 2-rated Terry Fox. If they can weather the undefeated Ravens, it would provide Trudeau-like momentum with the playoffs just weeks away. “(Terry Fox’s) whole offence and defence is predicated around one Grade 11, Jeremie Kankolongo,” said Kully. “He’s a very talented player on both sides of the ball and their game is getting him the ball.

“For us to succeed, we need to be right on top of that and have our assignments. It’s a very good test for us.”

Burnaby’s Elaine Lam was one of two Simon Fraser University swimmers to emerge from the pool with two wins at last week’s dual meet with Whitworth University in Spokane on Saturday.

The freshman from Burnaby Mountain topped the women’s 50- and 500-metre freestyle events, with times of 25.04 and 5:18.43, respectively.

The Clan’s Gabriel Lee also picked up a pair of victories, topping the men’s 200m free (1:43.18) and 200m backstroke (1:53.62).

Overall, SFU men and women combined to win 20 of 22 races with an aggregate score of 267140.

One of the closest races at the event was between teammates Ali Gracan and Charlene Hew in the 200m breaststroke, which Gracan won by 0.69 second (2:32.21).

The SFU men’s team remains undefeated to start the season, while the Clan women own a 2-3 record.

DI TROCCHIO TALLIES IN SPARTANS’ VICTORY Burnaby forward Isabella Di Trocchio contributed offensively to help push the Trinity Western University Spartans past the University of Manitoba 6-0 in Canadian women’s university soccer.

A fourth year player, Di Trocchio netted her fourth goal of the season at the 41st minute mark to make it 4-0.

Teammate Seina Kashima, a second-year Burnaby South alum, distributed the ball well to help create a number of scoring chances and rattled a shot off the crossbar in the 35th minute.

Trinity Western bumped its undefeated streak to 11 games, improving to 9-1-2 on the season.

SFU falls short in home-opening loss to EWash Dan Olson

dolson@burnabynow.com

A strong third period put them close, but the Simon Fraser University men’s hockey team fell short in a 5-3 setback to the Eastern Washington University Eagles in the SFU home opener Saturday at the Bill Copeland Sports Centre.

The home opener attract-

ed 1,473 fans and saw both teams combine for 66 penalty minutes, with SFU accounting for 38 of those minutes.

The club opened the regular season two weeks ago with a 5-4 victory over Trinity Western University, which saw SFU tagged with 28 of the game’s 40 penalty minutes.

“After last week’s pen-

alty barrage, the one thing we had to do was stay out of the box,” said head coach Mark Coletta. “We addressed it all week [. . .] and we didn’t do a good job of it.”

After the two teams traded powerplay markers in the first period, the Eagles surged ahead with a threegoal second, giving SFU a hill to climb.

Eastern Washington took the lead seven minutes into the middle frame, followed quickly 18 seconds later by what looked like the equalizer – but the SFU goal was waved off due after the referee ruled the puck had been kicked into the net.

The Eagles instead upped its lead with a powerplay tally, then add a pair of goals off the stick of defend-

ing BCIHL scoring leader Beau Walker, one a shorthanded effort.

Scoring for SFU were Tyler Basham, with a pair, and Brandon Tidy, off an assist from Robson Cramer.

Netminder Jordan Liem started the game for SFU, kicking out 21 shots before being relieved by Lyndon Stanwood, who stopped all 12 shots he faced.

“The goaltending’s not an issue for us,” said Coletta, who was optimistic the team would return to winning ways next weekend.

With the loss, SFU is now 1-1-0, and looks to get above .500 next Saturday when they return home to face the University of Victoria. SFU students get in free with student ID. Puck drop is at 7 p.m.

Outlaws edge Steelers

Grandview looks to end three-game losing skid Dan Olson

dolson@burnabynow.com

It was not pointless, but Grandview Steelers head coach Aldo Bruno would have preferred to see two on the table.

The Steelers suffered their third loss in a row Sunday, falling 2-1 in overtime to the Mission City Outlaws at the Burnaby Winter Club.

The single point bumped the team back into first place in the Pacific Junior Hockey League’s Tom Shaw Division with an 8-2-1 record.

Grandview took a 1-0 lead midway through the first period when Tim Chow counted his fifth of the season, on assists from Braeden Gurney and Jeffrey Wong.

They protected that lead successfully until 15:31 into the third period when Bryce Pisiak tied the game on a powerplay.

Mission, who sit atop the Harold Brittain Division, capped the comeback just 50 seconds into the extra

frame when Kyle Lennea would bury another powerplay chance.

“We let them rally late and gave up a powerplay goal,” said Bruno.

“We were doing well and kept their top line from scoring until the end,

You can’t look past anyone in this league. which was good.Their goalie played well but we didn’t get create as many [scoring] chances as I’d like.”

The shots were 22 to 20 in Mission’s favour, with three of those coming in overtime.

Bruno said the effort was solid enough to end the current slide, but the club still needed to get back to a consistent level that helped catapult them to an 8-0 start to the season.

“The difference I think has been a couple of things

– the guys followed the game plan in the first eight games but maybe got a little over confidence,” he noted.

“You can’t look past anyone in this league. Every team is good.

“Our special teams was really going good [in the beginning] but I don’t think we scored a powerplay goal in the last three games.”

The Steelers were 0-for6 in powerplay chances on Sunday.

With the recent loss of defenceman Quinn Lenihan to the Ontario junior A team in Trenton, the local squad has added some experience to the blueline by signing junior A veteran Brandon Volpe from Weyburn.

The Port Coquitlam native made his debut on Sunday and brings a wellrounded game to the rink.

Grandview visited second-place Delta on Tuesday, past the NewWest Record deadline.

On Sunday they host the Abbotsford Pilots 4 p.m. at the BWC.

Stealth ink Lakers’ Digby

The Vancouver Stealth have signed forward Tyler Digby to a one-year contract.

Digby, a New Westminster native who plays for Burnaby in the Western Lacrosse Association, is a three-year vet in the National Lacrosse League.

Last season he enjoyed a breakout year, putting up 74 points, including 38 goals,.

“I am really excited to be back with the Stealth and continue to have the opportunity to play in front of friends and family

at home games. I believe our team has improved through free agency and the draft, and can’t wait to get to a competitive training camp and start the season,” said Digby.

Digby was selected in the third round by the Stealth in the 2013 NLL draft and over 36 career games, has racked up 132 points to go along with 102 loose balls won.

“We love what Tyler brings and can’t wait to watch what he does in the coming season,” said Vancouver GM Doug Locker.
