PUBLIC HEALTH

New e-cigarette regulations kick in

E-cigarettes are now treated the same as regular cigarettes – no smoking in schools or in vehicles with kids By Cayley Dobie

cdobie@burnabynow.com

E-cigarette and vapour vendors have new laws to contend with after provincial regulations controlling the sale, promotion and use of e-cigarettes kicked in last week. The new changes mean anti-smoking laws now cover vapour products, as well.

The intention of the amendment is to “stop the growing use of e-cigarettes by young people in British Columbia,” noted a press release from the province. Under the new regulations, e-cigarette products are treated the same as other tobacco products that include nicotine. Smoking e-cigarettes, like regular cigarettes is now banned on

private and public school grounds; in indoor spaces and workplaces; and in vehicles with kids. Vapour vendors are now required by law to ensure they sell only to adults 19 years old and up; retail displays are prohibited if visible to youth; and advertising can’t be displayed in areas where youth or kids may see it, noted the release.

But some of these regulations are too strict, according to Kyle Wiles, manager at The Ohm Depot in North Burnaby. “I kind of understand having to block out our windows, but I feel like people think we’re closed now. I’ve had a lot of people say, ‘Oh hey I thought you were closed down,’ even though we have a neon sign and a

sandwich board.” Wiles said without the storefront displays, which are banned under the new regulations, his shop looks like it does when it’s closed after 7 p.m. He’s also worried that because the shop’s curtains aren’t flush against the window, as required under the new regulations, he could face a fine down the road.

“The guy who used to own this store put in some antique, handmade metal welded bars – it looks artsy – and that’s obviously something we would want there. We don’t want to put the drapes in front of that and hide it all,” he said, adding that since starting at The Ohm Depot three years ago, Continued on page 8

Newsnow A SALMON SUCCESS STORY

Stoney Creek on road to recovery By Jeremy Deutsch

jdeutsch@burnabynow.com

If you look closely at the water trickling along Stoney Creek, you can see juvenile coho swimming among the rocks. But the scene was very much a different one last fall, after a series of washouts along the Stoney Creek tributary near GaglardiWay threatened the very existence of the habitat. Fast forward nearly a year, and progress on rehabilitating the stream for the fish that call the creek home is coming along, even better than expected for local streamkeepers. “This is a really good thing to see the habitat improved,” said John Templeton, the chair of the Stoney Creek Environment Committee. He recently took the NOW on a tour of a tributary of the creek that was damaged by the washouts. The way Templeton sees it, the progress is a good news story. In the last few weeks, crews have built retaining ponds along a threequarter-kilometre stretch of the creek and put in different size gravel to accommodate the different species of fish. City contractors have also removed tons of crushed rock that filled the tributary after the mishap last fall. Meanwhile, about 400 fish have been relocated while the work, which started in early August, is being completed. Templeton suggested when the work is done, the stream will be in better condition than before the washouts. Along sections of the creek, coho chum were already colonizing the area on their own. By October, the creek is expected to be full of fish. “What we’re trying to do is to preserve, protect and enhance and improve what we’ve got here,” he said. The situation all began late October 2015 when a construction mishap led to a series of events that eventually forced a large amount of sediment into the creek and put the fish habitat at risk. During the rehabilitation of a culvert on a Stoney Creek tributary, an A.C.

Paving employee who was maintaining a filter screen on a pump at the construction site got his boot sucked into the inlet hose of the pump. The concern is if the returning fish’s eggs get coated in the sediment, it creates a barrier where oxygen doesn’t get into the devel-

It tells you that it’s very good water oping eggs, essentially choking them. The city had undertaken the project in the first place after crews and Stoney Creek streamkeeper members noticed the beginning of some creek bank erosion near the outlet of the Stoney Creek Tributary 3A culvert under GaglardiWay in the fall of 2014. Earlier this year, city engineers began working on a remediation plan. Fisheries and Oceans

Canada also got involved, directing the city to provide a fall/winter site management plan to ensure no further impacts to fish and fish habitat occur. Templeton, who’s been involved with the Stoney Creek committee for more than a decade, noted that ensuring the health of the creek is important because of the 90 waterways in Burnaby, only 12 have fish living in them. “Water is life, and if you have a creek with salmon in it, it tells you that it’s very good water,” he said. “It’s not only about fish, but it’s what people see and feel when they’re bathing in nature.”

QUICK CREEK FACTS: The Stoney Creek Environment Committee has been active since 1994. There are five salmon species in the creek: coho, chum, cutthroat trout, pink and the occasional chinook.

Of the 90 waterways in Burnaby, only 12 have fish living in them. There is a nature trail that runs adjacent to Stoney Creek for 1.2 kilometres. You can start your walk at Stoney Creek Community School.

Coho hatch January to March in the creek and live there for a year before returning to the sea. The stream is stocked with smolts during the annual Great Salmon Send Off. – For more info go to scec.ca

Food or rent? Burnaby man seeks solutions Tereza Verenca

editorial@burnabynow.com

A Burnaby man and former bodybuilder is forced to choose between eating and paying the rent. For the last two years, Shaun Balint has become severely allergic to soy, gluten, corn, lactose and latex, found in many fruits and vegetables. Symptoms include dizziness, blackouts, burning sensations and swelling of the eyes, face and hands. Given that most food has become extremely hard to eat, he’s lost a significant amount of weight. During his prime weightlifting years, he weighed 275 pounds. Now, he’s mostly skin and bones, and the scale reads 132. After spending nearly two weeks in Burnaby Hospital last month, a dietitan and two specialists prescribed Balint protein bars and shakes to maintain his nutrition.The supplements cost $795 a month. He and his wife Lara were reportedly told by hospital staff not to worry about the cost, and that an application to the Ministry of Social Development and Social Innovation, detailing what supplements he needed, would be submitted on their behalf. Thinking everything would be covered, the couple then went out and spent all of their rent money on the protein. They soon discovered the provincial government could only cover up to $205. As a

result, they couldn’t pay last month’s rent and were given an eviction notice. A few days later, they received a crisis grant of $570 from the ministry to make the rent so they wouldn’t get evicted.The Balints say they

I’m very frustrated and angry don’t have the cash this time around to make the September payment. “I’m very frustrated and angry,” Balint, who lives in Metrotown, told the NOW. Burnaby-Deer Lake MLA Kathy Corrigan contacted the ministry on the

couple’s behalf.The response she received was that the ministry is bound by legislation and can’t increase the cap. “The only suggestion we could give is to work with his doctors to see if there are cheaper alternatives and/ or seek out community resource support,” the email exchange reads. “If this was a cancer patient or a heart patient, we wouldn’t be rationing the drugs that that person got,” said Corrigan. “Shaun’s life is as in danger as somebody with a severe disease.There has to be a humanitarian exception made for him.” Lara, meanwhile, said she’s had to cut down on her hours at work to look after her husband. “Now that he’s black-

Does the Virto V Replace Traditional Hearing Aids? Whether at work, during conversations in small groups or when watching television, one in six adults experience problems when it comes to accurate speech comprehension and hearing in everyday situations. Although background noise and music can impair communication with friends and family, two thirds of those affected still do not use any hearing aids.

For some clients, the smaller design of the Virto V hearing aids might possibly replace the more traditional behindthe-ear hearing aids, and like many of our other products, these hearing aids can easily connect wirelessly with TVs and smartphones,” explains Prof. Stefan Launer, CSO of the Swiss manufacturer Phonak.

Prof. Stefan Launer, CSO of Swiss manufacturer Phonak, presents the new Virto V hearing aids.

There are many reasons for this but most people are not convinced that hearing aids will significantly benefit them or they feel unease about attracting attention by wearing a visible hearing aid.

Virtual function of the ear

This is why the Swiss manufacturer Phonak has developed a world first: Virto V. These hearing aids are manufactured using a modern 3D printing process that provides a custom-fit miniature hearing aid that disappears into the ear canal, making it almost invisible to others. Despite its small size, the latest and most advanced Phonak hearing technology is still contained in the casing.

“Thanks to a new operating system, these new hearing aids can provide a virtual alternative for natural hearing, as experienced by people with normal hearing. Through intelligent control, the software can improve speech understanding, even in loud situations and by utilizing the 3D printing process, these hearing aids fit the natural anatomy of the ear as closely as possible making them truly a custom-fit solution.

Improve your speech comprehension at work – without attracting attention.

See how the virtually invisible Virto V fits into your daily routine. If you are interested in finding out more about these new hearing aids, the first step is to a book hearing evaluation and determine if the new Virto V technology is the right solution for you. For those who are hard of hearing, this can be particularly useful for finding out whether it is possible to hear and understand more clearly with discreet in-the-canal hearing solutions.

Three sexual assaults In one case a man approached two women from behind and pulled their pants down to the ground

By Jeremy Deutsch

jdeutsch@burnabynow.com

Burnaby Mounties are warning the public to be careful when walking alone following a trio of sexual assaults in three days. The first two alleged assaults, which took place about 20 minutes apart, were reported on Sept. 1, according to police. The women said they were walking along Mary Avenue and 16th Street when an unknown man approached them from behind and pulled their pants down to the ground.When the women turned around, the suspect took off on foot. The description of the suspect was similar in both cases. The suspect was described as a medium-

skinned man in his late teens to early 20s, standing five feet seven inches to 10 inches tall, with a thin build and prominent dark eyebrows.The suspect was wearing a black baseball hat, black hoody and dark jeans. On Saturday morning, police were once again called out to a report of a sexual assault, this time in the 7400 block of Kingsway.The woman told police she was walking down an alley when a man approached her from behind and grabbed her buttocks. When she turned around, the man ran away. The suspect was described as a light-skinned man, standing five-feet seven to five feet nine inches tall with a thin build. He was wearing a red jacket

and blue jeans. None of the women were injured in the incidents. Burnaby RCMP believe all three assaults are related, noting extensive patrols were made to find the suspects but as of press deadlines, the suspects remained at-large. Police are also cautioning the public to be vigilant while walking alone in the area and recommend walking in pairs or groups if possible. Anyone with information about the incidents is asked to contact Burnaby RCMP at 604 294-7922 or Crime Stoppers, if you wish to remain anonymous, at 1-800-222-TIPS or www. solvecrime.ca.

Opinion now OUR VIEW

We can save the salmon in Burnaby It’s often hard to believe that tucked in between the highways and houses in Burnaby are veins of water that provide nurseries for wild salmon. The pressure on such water nurseries in urban areas is tremendous. In fact, Stoney Creek, like other waterways in the city, has been severely damaged by negligence and/or stupidity in the past. We’ve done those sto-

ries too many times: Someone dumps some old toxic substance into the drain in front of their house; some business decides to flush out a system sending diesel oil or gas into the sewer system, which overflows. And then there are the people who think it’s sweet to see their dogs splashing away in the creek – crushing all of the salmon eggs. We’ve often wondered if all of those Great Salm-

on Send-Offs have any serious impact on raising the numbers of salmon in city streams. It always seems like one step forward and two steps back in trying to bring wild salmon back to urban streams. That’s why our story on page 3 is so welcome. Not only have the Stoney Creek streamkeepers and their allies worked hard to have the creek recover from

damage – but it looks like the creek will rebound to a state better than before the damage. The damage in October of 2015 was huge and major remediation was necessary. In fact, 400 salmon had to be removed as part of the work. But extensive rehabilitation of the area has actually improved the water for coho habitation. And coho chum are already inhabiting the

new area. As John Templeton of the streamkeepers said, “this is a really good thing to see the habitat improved.” We agree. Not only is it a good thing, but it’s a signal to those who may have given up hope on saving our urban streams that hard work and teamwork make all of the difference. While we all may not choose to join the streamkeepers’ society, we can sup-

port their efforts through donations, lobbying our political leaders and making sure we aren’t dumping bad stuff down our drains. We may not be able to go back in time to when Burnaby had dozens of salmon streams, but we can do everything we can to preserve the ones that we have now. COMMENT ON THIS STORY

MY VIEW KEITH BALDREY

Health care heads to court

Let’s say you are on a wait-list for the type of surgery that will play a huge role in your life, perhaps the kind that restores full mobility or removes chronic pain or simply provides a level of comfort you haven’t felt for some time. Do you have the right to pay for that surgery in a private health-care clinic, bypassing the more clogged publicly funded system in favour of quicker treatment? That question is at the core of a court case beginning this week in B.C. Supreme Court.The implications of the case are potentially huge. The case itself is almost eight years old but has been delayed for various reasons. It involves a private healthcare clinic run by Dr. Brian Day (along with some of its patients) suing the B.C. government because it won’t allow people to buy private insurance for medically necessary services that are covered in the public system. The case is expected to last months and will likely extend well beyond that because whatever the verdict, the losing side will undoubtedly appeal the judgment all the way to the Supreme Court of Canada. A couple of important principles are in play here: should everyone have the same access to health care no matter how much money someone has, or do individuals have a constitutional right to purchase health care if they think it is necessary? The Supreme Court of Canada has already weighed in on this matter, sort of. It

ruled residents of Quebec could indeed purchase private insurance, but the ruling was confined to Quebec only. Many observers think the case will push our healthcare system to resemble ones more common in Europe, the so-called “hybrid” model that combines both the public and private side. But even if that does occur, it’s far from certain how sweeping any changes will be. Nothing dramatic has changed in Quebec, for example, despite that high court ruling back in 2005. A key factor here is that no matter what the outcome of the B.C. case, there are only so many doctors and nurses in the system who can treat people. Even if the clinic were to win outright, it’s far from clear whether a high percentage of healthcare providers would defect entirely to the private side. Keep in mind those private health clinics exist only if they make money. If not enough patients (there are currently about 80,000 British Columbians on some kind of medical wait-list) opt to pay (presumably) thousands of dollars to get off that list and have their surgery, the clinics will not be in a position to hire more doctors and nurses. Nevertheless, the impact of this case is going to be felt one way or another. How big an impact won’t be known for a couple of years yet, but I suspect provincial governments are watching this one nervously. Keith Baldrey is chief political reporter for Global B.C.

Not-for-profit society is doing everything it can in the bedbug war

Little support for pipeline, says MP

Dear Editor As the president of the Swedish Canadian Manor Society, I am concerned by the reporting in Burnaby NOW on Aug. 17 relating to our not-for-profit society. We acknowledge that there has been an issue with bedbugs in this building, which we continue daily to work at eradicating, and we have devoted considerable resources to combat and resolve the issue together with its tenants and by specialized pest control companies. The matter is by no means unique as it is widely spread in Greater Vancouver. However, we are not giving up or accepting the problem; the organization intends to continue and intensify its efforts to find the solution to this problem and stop more bedbugs from being brought in to the building. The following efforts have been made over the last two years to deal with this matter: ! Offering free use of a specially built trailer for heat treatment of furniture, clothes and household items. ! Treatment and ongoing visual monitoring by professional pest management companies of residential suites and common areas, sealing units through caulking of all ingress areas to stop the movement of bedbugs from unit to unit. ! Disposing of furniture brought in by residents that are bug infested and cannot be treated. ! Offering free laundry services to residents who have an infestation to wash clothing and bedding. ! Working closely with B.C. Housing to assist our residents in the treatment of bedbugs. ! Asking our residents to diligently look for bedbugs and if at all possible not to purchase used furniture and clothing from secondhand or recycle stores as bedbug eggs can remain dormant for more than one year. To control and eliminate these pests, it has to be a combined effort between ourselves as landlords and the residents. The following is why we, as a board, are concerned by the Burnaby NOW article: The article does not address the bedbug infestation in the context of what the situation is in Greater Vancouver so there is no attempt to explain whether this is common or unusual. Nor does it address the ways tenants and homeowners can ensure they do not assist in spreading the bedbugs into their homes and around the city, which would have been of benefit to your readers. The Swedish Canadian Village, a not-forprofit organization, has been in existence since 1947 and is a serious, established and professionally managed organization. It is an important institution with a proud history of providing clean and pleasant homes to moderate- and low-income residents at affordable rents. We invite your publisher and readers to visit our website, www.swedishcanadian.ca, for more information about us or contact us to arrange a visit and we will be happy to show you our “village.” Respectfully yours, Christer Hulten, president, Swedish Canadian Manor Society

If not, there will be court actions, by first nations, that will delay this expansion till the next century. JohnCHunter LouK He is in touch with an unknown proportion of his constituency. Where is the scientific poll to say how many are pro or con? The two latest polls for the province do not match the rhetoric. Ariane Eckardt The pipeline kerfuffle is as phony as the electoral reform one. It is all a Liberal charade that we are being subjected to. George Soros must be very happy with the results he is getting for his money. kim hunter Someone needs to show Terry the data. Based on Statistics Canada, fossil fuels have not made BC a profit in over a decade and have actually usurped 7.8% out of our GDP. Add all the those tax breaks, taxpayer $$$ subsidies and liability loopholes, threats to sustainable industries, etc. and these “unconventional fossil fuels cost BC MUCH too much. If he knows the truth he’s obligated to act in the best interest of his constituents, no?

Councillor says more must be done for displaced renters Jack Burns While much appreciated that someone from the City council actually speaks up on the problem of demovictions, the issue at heart is we do not want these unaffordable condo highrises in our neighborhoods of Metrotown outside the Mall area. We reject this Downtown Plan. Go to Lougheed and Brentwood with that crazy idea, rebuild the Metrotown Mall area with NY-style 100 storey buildings if you want, cram as many yuppies into these tubes as you please, but leave the rest of Metrotown as is. Much of Metrotown is meant and zoned for affordable market housing, not for this insanity. We need these 3-storey buildings rebuilt when they reach their end of life, which for most of them will be only in 20, 30, and even 40 years, rebuilt with affordable structures, and yes, some rebuilt with 4, 5, and 10 storey structures, but not with those unaffordable, unsightly, and exclusive 40+ storey structures on Beresford. Keep the existing inclusive cultural atmosphere of Metrotown alive. Why do all areas being developed have to have the same ugly highrise look?

SPECIAL RETIREES' HEARING AID! A new hearing aid offer has been introduced for retirees. The hearing aid is a great value, simple to operate and brings IMPROVED hearing to thousands!

At last. The hearing aid that thousands have wanted is now available. The latest digital hearing aid technology solves the biggest challenge for hearing aid wearers–hearing well in noisy environments. Nobody will notice it because of its minute size, fitting snugly and comfortably just behind your ear. Everything works automatically. There are no controls to worry about and adjustments are easy to make–even from your smart phone. So you can get back to enjoying your relationships, rather than thinking about your hearing. Because these new hearing aids collect and digitally processes natural, 360 degree sound thousands of times per second,

they have been shown to reduce the strain that effortful-listening puts on the brain and even to improve recall from conversations in noisy listening environments. In fact, these hearing aids improve speech understanding in background noise 30% better than even the previous top-ofthe-line hearing aids. Hearing professionals are celebrating the biggest advancement in 30 years of fitting hearing aids and patients credit it with providing a substantial improvement in their ability to communicate in large groups and noisy social settings. A hearing test takes less than 60 minutes, you don’t need a doctor’s referral, and there’s no cost or obligation whatsoever. Call now to try these hearing aids for yourself!

Fireworks group unhappy with city National association says Burnaby’s proposed ban on fireworks sales is ‘unfortunate’ Cayley Dobie

cdobie@burnabynow.com

Not everyone’s happy with the direction city council is headed when it comes to the sale of fireworks. The Canadian National Fireworks Association, a group that advocates on behalf of the fireworks industry to promote fair access and safety in the sale and use of fireworks, is disappointed the City of Burnaby plans to ban the sale of fireworks at its Sept. 12 council meeting. “We were told this council decision would be based on public input, and yet the petition we submitted with hundreds of signatures was not even made public.We’re astounded by the lack of transparency with this council decision,” said Amanda Cameron, executive director of the fireworks association. Cameron said her organization attempted to take part in the bylaw review process but faced barriers at every turn. It was through media reports in June the group learned the city was considering banning vendors from selling fireworks. Cameron arranged a meeting with the mayor and Burnaby’s acting fire prevention officer in hopes of finding a compromise, but again she hit a roadblock. “They basically told us council is fed up with the complaints they’re getting, and maybe if we came to the table sooner we could have been more proactive and dealt with this,” Cameron said.

Unfair? A proposed ban on the sale of fireworks at shops like this one – on Hastings Street in 2014 – has the Canadian National Fireworks Association seeing red. PHOTO NOW FILES

Complaints against fireworks vendors were mostly nuisance-related, including failures to abide by the city’s signage bylaw and not paying fines when bylaws are broken, according to the city. After her meeting with the mayor and fire department, Cameron met with councillors to see if she could get them to reconsider the ban. Her association, which was founded in 2013, has worked with the City of Vancouver over the past couple of years to help bring fireworks vendors into compliance with city bylaws. She hoped she could do the same in Burnaby with the 24 vendors who sold fireworks last year. “We had 16 of them sign a commitment letter stating that if council goes ahead and adopts the Canadian National Fireworks Association’s recommendations, they’d commit to following them,” Cameron said. Included in the recom-

mendations were frameworks to avoid clusters of fireworks shops in small areas and a proposed municipal bond that would be paid when the vendors apply for permits from the city and would be refunded at the end of the season. “This would be to prevent bylaw infractions as well as alleviate the penalty issue,” Cameron said. “They would get it back, and if they had any bylaw infractions it would automatically be deducted off that deposit.” But Burnaby didn’t go for it. Last week, Cameron and members of the association held a press conference asking the city to reconsider moving forward on the bylaw amendment. Despite her efforts, Cameron isn’t holding out hope the city will change its mind before the amendment goes for final reading later this month. “It’s really unfortunate,” Cameron said.

North Burnaby store not keen on vaping restrictions Continued from page 1 he’s only had one police officer drop by. Wiles is also not keen on the restriction that says only two customers at a time can sample vapours or e-cigarettes indoors. “I just found that a little strange to put a number on it,” he said. But only time will tell

what, if any, impact the new regulations will have on the North Burnaby store and others like it,Wiles said. “If this just stunts growth, I could probably see us closing down one day if we can’t work our way around it,” he added. “It just sucks. It sucks to be held back, regulated, I think nobody likes that.”

The new act came into effect Sept. 1 after it was introduced in spring of 2015 as a way of discouraging youth from becoming addicted to tobacco products. According to the province, one in five Canadian youth have tried an e-cigarette.

Cops investigate flashing incidents Police don’t believe two cases of indecent exposure are connected Tereza Verenca

editorial@burnabynow.co

Burnaby Mounties are investigating two recent acts of indecent exposure. The first incident happened on Aug. 31 just after 1 a.m. Police were called to the 6600 block of Lily Avenue after a woman reported a man masturbated in front of her, according to a media release. She had been walking near Bonsor Park when she saw a man walking in front of her. She alleged the man turned around and started walking towards her while loosening his belt, pulling his pants part way down and touching himself, according to police. The suspect – described as Caucasian, about 30 years old, five feet, eight inches tall, with a slim build – then allegedly headed off towards Nelson Avenue and Kingsway. Police said he

was wearing a black hoodie, glasses and blue jeans. The second incident happened the following day, on Sept. 1, shortly after midnight. A woman told RCMP she was at a bus stop near the Royal Oak SkyTrain station when she alleged a man walked towards her with his penis out of his pants. She ran away and got on a bus before reporting the incident to police, stated the release. The second suspect is described as Caucasian, around 35 years old, six feet to six feet and two inches tall, with a slim build. He was wearing dress pants, a dark-coloured blazer and black boots. Police don’t believe the incidents are connected. Anyone with information is asked to call the Burnaby RCMP at 604-294-7922 or Crime Stoppers.

It won and has now been developed and expanded into a full musical. Set in theYVR baggage claim, Carry On “examines the convergent lives of weary wanderers and the baggage they bring with them,” a press release explains. “Stuck in luggage limbo, the colourful cast of this comedic romp are all desperately seeking one thing – to move their lives onwards and upwards.Well, that and to finally get their bags.” It stars Burnaby actor Britt MacLeod as Tracy, the baggage claim supervisor who’s feeling a little stuck after 10 years in her job and who’s hoping a promotion to management is in her future. MacLeod is also the composer of the show, having written both music and lyrics. Other local actors in-

Willingdon Greenway PUBLIC OPEN HOUSE

The Willingdon Greenway is a proposed pedestrian and cyclist facility along the east side of Willingdon Ave between Brentlawn Drive and Hastings Street. It is comprised of a 4m wide multi-use trail with features to enhance the safety and comfort of users. The project will also include the addition of pedestrian signals at Kitchener St, William St, Union St, and left turn bays at Parker St. The Willingdon Greenway will provide residents with better access to amenities and services by improving the link between Brentwood Town Centre and The Heights Commercial District along Hastings St. The design of the Greenway is underway and construction is scheduled to begin in early 2017. You are invited to a Public Open House on September 14th, 2016 to view displays and learn more about the project. City staff and project designers will be available to answer questions.

nclusiveness. Equality. Empowerment. Engagement. Innovation. With these five values in mind, the Burnaby Neighbourhood House provides support, resources, information and services to families and individuals across all cultures and age groups in the Burnaby area. “We’re really looking to residents and people already living and working in the community to step up and support each other,” says Antonia Beck, Executive Director of the volunteer-driven, community-based social services agency. “We’re breaking down barriers and creating those positive experiences for everybody to feel like they belong.” Programs offered by the Burnaby Neighbourhood House are accessible to everyone and they pay special attention to addressing language, cultural and financial barriers by providing a welcoming environment and offering free or low-cost programs and services for the participants. “One of our charitable goals is to alleviate poverty, so we make sure our programs are as accessible as possible,” says Beck. Twenty years ago, residents of the south Burnaby neighbourhood recognized the need for a neighbourhood house after seeing similar projects find success in Vancouver. It led a small group of community members to incorporate the “House” in 1996. As programs began to expand and

partnerships with other organizations formed, Burnaby’s first Neighbourhood House continued to grow. Responding to community needs, a second “House” was established in north Burnaby two years ago. This second location is under the banner of Burnaby Neighbourhood House and is also quickly developing as a valuable resource to north Burnaby residents. The Burnaby Neighbourhood House currently offers a range of supportive programs which include information and referral, early years drop-in, daycare and preschool services, youth engagement programs, cultural nights, adult literacy support, seniors social groups and more. Community members are also invited to create their own programs or workshops with full support from neighbourhood house staff.

Our dear Mother passed away peacefully on the morning of Thurs., Aug. 25, 2016. Marie was born in Jasper, and was raised in Calgary, Alberta. She is predeceased by her parents, Thomas and Mary Glover (nee Beck), her husband John (2003), and her son Paul (2015).

While attending U.B.C., Marie met and married classmate, John Cloutier in 1950, and they were blessed to celebrate 52 years together. They lovingly raised 4 children.

Marie was a world-wide traveler throughout her life - via trains, planes, automobile, and cruise ships. Marie was a Charleston Dancer, Bridge Player, an avid Curler, and Pitch-and Putter. She also enjoyed many lunches and events with her friends from the Red Hat Society. 0ur Mother had great Faith, a sweet personality, a love for music, and a beautiful smile!
