FOOD BANK DRIVE
42,000 pounds donated The Greater Vancouver Food Bank’s first-ever citywide donation drive pulled in more than 40,000 pounds of food to help feed people who are hungry. The drive covered Burnaby, New Westminster, Vancouver and North Vancouver – the four municipalities in the food bank’s catchment area. “While we didn’t meet our ambitious target, what I can say is a day ago we didn’t have 42,000 pounds of food in our warehouse waiting to be sorted,” said Ariela Friedmann, the food bank’s communications director. “We appreciate the community’s support.This is such a win.” The drive was held on Saturday, Sept. 17. Burnaby residents donated 15,217 pounds of food, and the Save-On-Foods on Kingsway served as headquarters for the drive.

FUNDS FOR RENTAL HOUSING
Premier comes bearing $500mil Clark says municipalities, like Burnaby, must share the burden and zone more areas for rental housing
By Jeremy Deutsch
jdeutsch@burnabynow.com
With the sounds of construction in the back drop, Premier Christy Clark was at Burnaby’s George Derby Centre Monday to announce a half billion dollars
in funding for affordable rental housing around the province. Billed as the “largest housing investment ever” in the province’s history, the $500 million will go toward creating 2,900 rental units for low-to moderate-income
renters, seniors, youth and other groups. The Premier noted part of the funding is coming from the 15 per cent foreign owner property tax that was introduced in July. “You can’t live the kind of life you hope for in this
country and you can’t raise your children in the way you’ve always dreamed of, if you don’t have a decent roof over your head,” Clark said during the announcement. The announcement was also an opportunity for the Premier to weigh in on
doing so through the foreign tax, transit investments and the $500 million affordable housing investment. She suggested, when it comes to rental housing, local governments have the Continued on page 3

‘It’s going to be an awesome year’
Lots of changes in Burnaby schools this year, but superintendent is excited and ready to roll By Cornelia Naylor
cnaylor@burnabynow.com
With a new provincial curriculum, numerous building projects and a search for a new secretary treasurer all ahead, the Burnaby school district is looking down the barrel of another busy year, but superintendent Gina Niccoli-Moen is brimming with optimism. “We’re ready, we’re excited, we’re good to go,” she told the NOW earlier this month. “It’s going to be an awesome year.” Unlike the Vancouver district, which faces school closures because of dropping enrolment, Burnaby’s public school population is holding steady, and could even be higher than projected, but the numbers won’t be finalized until Sept. 30. “Our kindergarten numbers seemed very strong when we looked at them at the end of June, but we cautiously watch until we actually see the families that come,” Niccoli-Moen said. NEW CURRICULUM The new curriculum, which emphasizes tapping into students’ interests and encouraging critical thinking, collaboration and communication skills, becomes official this year for kindergarten to Grade 9 students and next year for students in grades 10 to 12. Local teachers are particularly well poised for the new challenge, according to Niccoli-
Moen, because of a longstanding tradition the district has of building partnerships in the broader community. “That has been a part of who we are, so, for us, it’s that validation of that but it’s also that permission to take that leap and say, ‘What else is possible?’” she said. A couple new programs being launched this year are cases in point. At Burnaby North, Grade 9 to 11 students can now opt into a new program called ReThink – a “school within a school” in which students work with community partners, like the City of Burnaby, SFU, BCIT and the Burnaby Board of Trade, on real-life proposals, projects and problems based on the students’ interests. At Moscrop, a new health sciences program will give students extensive use of BCIT labs and facilities as well as advanced credit for a BCIT course. NEW CFO At the school district office, meanwhile, a replacement has yet to be found for secretary-treasurer Greg Frank, who left the district after 16 years at the end of July for a job with the Surrey district. The school board originally planned to have his replacement installed by the start of the school year. “The board is in the middle of an executive search and that will be continuing on through September,” Niccoli-Moen said. “As we make our way through that process,
we’ll certainly be relying on our finance team to pick up when Greg Frank left.” Assistant secretary-treasurer Roy Uyeno helped wrap up the district’s annual external financial audit during the summer and will continue to head up the finance department until a new secretary-treasurer is hired. “I came back, and it was all hands on deck,” Uyeno said of his return from a summer vacation. NEW CONSTRUCTION On the building front, a $27.2-million seismic upgrade and partial replacement of Alpha Secondary continues, with the demolition of a six-classroom block imminent. The next step will be the construction of a new classroom block, “super lab” and library. To house students until that part of the project is complete, extra classrooms have been built into the existing school buildings. The Alpha project is scheduled for completion in fall 2018. A seismic upgrade and four-classroom addition at Montecito, meanwhile, won’t likely get shovels in the ground until next month, according to facilities manager Russ Sales. That project was delayed when bids from general contractors came back higher than the budget allowed. “We’ve now had to go a different route, which is having a construction management
team come in and run the project for us in our best interest to try and lower the price,” Sales said. Two other seismic upgrades in the district – at Stride Community School and Burnaby North Secondary – are still in the project development report stage. Like with the Alpha project, Sales said the district hopes to convince the education ministry that a partial replacement of Burnaby North would be more practical than a pure seismic upgrade. “All they’re funding for is a pure seismic upgrade, so even at Alpha we had to prove out that we could do the partial (replacement) more effectively than doing a pure seismic, which means that temporary buildings didn’t have to come on site to do that, how we changed the phasing to work that,” Sales said. “We’re going to run the same approach to the ministry on that of course. Whether or not it pans out is a little early to say.” Besides big capital projects, the district’s facilities team was busy for more than 40 days during the summer working on projects like heating and ventilation upgrades, exterior paint jobs, roofing upgrades, LED lighting upgrades and playground installations. Many of the upgrades will lead to energy and carbon neutral savings down the road, according to Sales.
Council says it doesn’t have power to rezone Continued from page 1 biggest role to play, adding where there is as shortage of rental housing, mayors and councils have to zone more rental housing. “Zoning is an area exclusively on mayors and councils,” Clark said. “Local mayors and councils have to be a part of the solution because we can’t do the zoning for them.” The demoviction issue heated up in Burnaby this summer when a group of protesters took over a vacant building slated for demolition at 5025 Imperial St. Much of the protest was aimed at the city and Mayor Derek Corrigan over the demolition of older buildings in the Metrotown area to make way for new developments. Changes to the current Metrotown development plan could mean the loss of 3,000 current rental units in the area. Housing Minister Rich Coleman, who was also on hand at George Derby Centre, blamed local Burnaby politicians for not being a willing partner to address
affordable housing issues in the city. Specifically, he noted the situation regarding the building of a homeless shelter in the city. “There’s people in this community that have been asking for a shelter and supportive housing for people (dealing with) homelessness for a long time,” Coleman told the NOW. “They (the city) won’t give us a location where we could actually do that. If they would zone a piece of property or tell us where to go, we would probably do that.” The housing minister also noted developments planned in the Brentwood and Lougheed town centres as opportunities for rental housing, adding the province would consider some options. At Monday night’s city council meeting, the civic politicians took the opportunity to respond, noting the city doesn’t have the power to rezone for more rental housing. Corrigan said municipalities have been asking for au-
thority to rezone for rental housing since 1990, but told it would interfere with private property rights. He suggested the premier has a misunderstanding of what the city can do. Coun. Sav Dhaliwal said he was surprised to hear the comments from the premier, also noting that it was his understanding the city didn’t have the power the Clark was mentioning. “To say that local governments are not doing enough, in my thinking it’s not a very responsible way in asking local government to help,” he said. Coun. Nick Volkow said the argument that cities are the main obstacle to rental housing is gaining traction, but isn’t true. “We don’t have the ability to zone for rental as much as we would like to,” he said, adding the lack of cooperation between the provincial and federal governments has created a “crisis of their own making.” Millions for housing: Premier Christy Clark listens to Derby Manor Society vice-chair Bill Osborne during an affordable housing announcement in Burnaby Monday.

“This is a client I will never forget,” says Laura Bergstrom. He was one of the first to enroll in the Neil Squire Society’s Technology@Work program, and Bergstrom was his occupational therapist. According to Bergstrom, he was a lovely guy who worked the same job for 20 years, but his vision was deteriorating. He was a purchaser, which involved scrutinizing tiny numbers on spreadsheets and warehouse boxes.This man, as Bergstrom tells it, would lean in so far to read things that the boxes and his computer monitor were inches from his nose. He did this for eight hours a day, five days a
week.The strain caused debilitating exhaustion, neck pain, back pain and headaches.The fatigue was so intense, all he could do was go home after work and sleep. Things had gotten so bad, he figured he would have to quit. “It was just awful,” Bergstrom says. “He was the nicest guy, and he was so good at his job.” The man heard about the society’s Technology@Work program, which helps make workplaces more comfortable for people with disabilities. Bergstrom and her team intervened and implemented several changes.They brought in software that made the text on this computer screen larger, coloured and with more contrast.They installed an electronic magnifier to scan
and read documents; one with a portable tablet so he could take pictures of the small numbers on the warehouse boxes.They also affixed a monitor arm so he could bring his computer screen closer to his face,
He could continue to do the work he loves
without hunching forward, and they replaced his broken chair with a more ergonomically correct one.The man was also having trouble commuting on the bus because he couldn’t see the intersections and didn’t know
where to get off. Bergstrom hooked him up with a small GPS device that fed regular location updates into an earpiece to help him navigate. “The accommodations that were put in place were, … I think he said ‘life changing,’” Bergstrom says. “He could continue to do the work he loves without feeling the exhaustion and the pain.” The Technology@Work program has been running since spring 2015, and more than 400 people have received help to make their workplaces more accommodating.The Neil Squire Society is known for helping people with disabilities in the workplace, but disability is a loose term when it comes to qualifying for the program.

Opinion now OUR VIEW
It’s time for a ‘food bank’ tax in Canada
Is it a coincidence that B.C. is seeing more families and seniors depending on food banks to survive and that the province’s minimum wage is $10.85 per hour? Is it a coincidence that the food bank is struggling to keep up with supplying the hungry and that Vancouver is one of the most expensive places in the world to live? You won’t find a Fraser Institute study to support our gut conclusions on hunger in the Lower Mainland, but you will find a lot
of folks who simply don’t care why they’re now forced to depend on food banks to survive. They don’t have the time or political energy to debate the whys and who is to blame on the political spectrum for this situation. It’s all they can do to get up each morning and make sure their kids are fed, or, if they are a senior, that they can make their way to a food bank and carry what they can home. The gap between the haves and have-nots is wid-
ening. And with that gap comes the unfortunate tendency for those who “have” to turn a blind eye to the problem. There was a time in Canada when there were no food banks.We have become so used to food bank drives that we have come to accept them as part of the “normal” way of life. The first food bank was started in 1981 in Edmonton. Now there are hundreds of food banks across the country and thousands of food programs.
According to Food Banks Canada, 13 per cent of Canadians live in a state of food insecurity.They do not have reliable access to adequate amounts of safe, good quality, nutritious food. The number of people using food banks grew by 26 per cent from 2008 to 2015.We doubt very much it’s dropped since 2015. This is not normal. Or, should we say, this should not be considered normal. If people can’t afford good food because social assistance doesn’t pay them
enough to live on, if people can’t afford good food because they can’t live on the minimum wage – more food banks are not the answer. Forcing people to line up for charity to be able to survive is simply not OK. Yes, we support and urge everyone to give to the food bank. We can’t allow neighbours and fellow Canadians to go hungry. But, if we are part of the “haves” in this country, we should not shrug our shoul-
ders and simply accept this as part of Canadian society. We think a “food bank tax” or “hunger tax” should be part of our tax system. If food banks are here to stay, let’s make sure we all support them – or at least that the “haves” who can deliberate on what wine to have with their prime rib support them. Suspect you won’t find the Fraser Institute supporting that idea, either. COMMENT ON THIS ISSUE

MY VIEW KEITH BALDREY
Economy may help the NDP
The rosy state of the B.C. government’s financial books is good news for the B.C. Liberals as they seek re-election, but it’s potentially even better news for the New Democratic Party. That’s because there is enough financial elbow room for either party to make big spending promises, without having to raise taxes or tip the provincial budget into deficit. The B.C. Liberals have been hesitant, for years now, to dramatically increase the annual budget of pretty well anything.The health-care system routinely gets an additional half billion dollars a year, but that basically funds the status quo. The education system gets minor funding increases, as do social service ministries.The government’s three-year fiscal plan shows any budget increase in those areas are projected to be less than five per cent, which maintains the status quo. But the latest quarterly financial update shows the government is now awash in money, and while the next two years may not be quite as robust as the current year, they will still be strong performers and will deliver a lot of additional revenue into government coffers. This year’s surplus is expected to hover around $2 billion (a whopping $1.6 billion higher than forecast), plus there’s another $350 million for a forecast allowance, and a $450 contingency fund that may not have to be tapped into to a signifi-
cant degree. But it’s the government’s forecast for the next two years that will play a factor in how parties put together their election platforms. The total budget surplus for the next two years is forecast to be (for now anyway) about $1.8 billion, plus another $1 billion for the forecast allowances that won’t be used if those surpluses are indeed so huge. This sets the stage for the NDP to make the kind of spending promises that were essentially off-limits in the last election campaign, when government finances were much tighter. The party can now promise significant relief for, say, the K-12 education system, perhaps in the order of hundreds of millions of dollars a year. It can also promise to raise various social assistance rates, lower post-secondary tuition costs, and put even more money into health care – all things they have been demanding of the B.C. Liberal government for years. Of course, the B.C. Liberals can promise to do these things as well, but I suspect they will argue such action would be foolish over the long-term because there is no guarantee the state of the provincial economy could fund these increases once they are embedded in the system.That may be a valid argument, but will enough voters buy it to keep that party in power? Keith Baldrey is chief political reporter for Global B.C.

Gas price hike seems contradictory in B.C.
Development drops steeply in Burnaby
Dear Editor Can someone explain to me why, on the one hand, the development of an LNG industry in B.C. is impeded by a supply glut – thereby depressing the price – of natural gas, while on the other hand Fortis B.C. has been given the go-ahead to increase the cost of supplying that very same gas to households by an average of $82 a year? Isn’t that a direct contradiction of the socalled law of supply and demand? Fortis B.C. says it’s a case of the industry cutting back production coupled with an increased demand for gas in North America. Doesn’t that constitute a manipulation of the market? If so, where is the oversight to protect the public? Bill Brassington Sr., Burnaby
Clark is just trying to buy Burnaby’s votes Dear Editor Re: Premier comes bearing $500 million (see page 1). Boy, we sure know a provincial election is coming, and Christy Clark is making promises she has no intentions of fulfilling, because this announcement is nothing but a blatant attempt to buy the votes of gullible people. People should know by now that Christy Clark, like Stephen Harper, is a pathological liar who wouldn’t know the truth if it smacked her right in the face. B.C. deserves better than this Conservative Party disguised as Liberals. All one needs is to look at their history of taking from the working people, while giving tax-breaks to their corporate owners and the “One Per Cent.” We need a government that is working for the people, not a political party that is owned by corporate interests.

2 Cents How about our quality of life? Today’s unrefined densification agendas are nothing but facades for short term profit-making without consideration of long term negative impacts on personal health. These concrete jungles that go up are killing the beauty of this city, and will continue to erode our mental and physical health as a result of the many stressors they create. Before copying Asia, our city planners should be sent to live in Hong Kong for a few months to see how they like it. Some of them should be kept there until they repent. An intelligent planner with some integrity would propose an European model instead. Many pleasant lively streets, with pedestrian traffic only, with small bistros and tables in the streets, lucrative small shops and hotels, 2 to 4 stories max, no excessive noise, a great atmosphere that is good. bill smith Corrigan better hope that construction or property values are tanking.. it’s Burnaby’s only saving grace... like in the example of Detroit and many other exclusively left-leaning city administrations, extreme crime and poverty following a golden era is very typical... if Burnaby cannot keep up with all of its unsustainable spending, the billion dollar mountain of over taxation in the bank will not last long.

Liberals choose their candidate for Burnaby-Deer Lake Matthew Not good news for renters. The Liberal candidate in the heart of demovictions isn’t aware that the rental housing crisis is the number one issue in her riding. The NDP candidate Anne Kang is one of the City councillors that is trying to displace thousands of renters. Hopefully the Greens run someone in Metrotown who stands up for renters.

It could be physical or cognitive, from an injury or repeated movements or related to a progressive disease. Neck pain, back pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, arthritis, low vision or blindness, a spinal cord injury, multiple sclerosis or cerebral palsy are all examples of conditions that send clients to the program. The types of workers Neil Squire helps are also varied, from cashiers and CEOs, to lawyers, artists, fishermen and the self-employed. Under B.C. law, employers have a “duty to accommodate” disabled people in the workplace. That could mean bringing in new keyboards with larger key symbols, more ergonomically friendly chairs or auto-dictation software that allows people without limbs to type using their voices. For example, the society is working with one client with impaired vision who might use a camera that’s fitted to his glasses with a small earpiece, and this device will read whatever text he points to with his finger. These things can get expensive – a fancy, comfortable ergonomically correct chair on display runs for more than $1,000 – but most of the costs, if not all, are covered by the government through the program. “I think there’s this fear that accommodations are expensive,” Bergstrom says. “But that’s where the program comes in.We can help offset those.” Since September is Disability in theWorkplace Month, the society invited
Burnaby MLA Richard Lee to the office for a mock assessment. As an interesting aside, Lee used to work at TRIUMF with Bill Cameron, the society’s original founder and the man who invented the sip and puff communication system used by quadriplegics. Bergstrom walks Lee through a typical assessment a client would undergo, adjusting his chair, headrest and armrests for optimum comfort and health. Ergonomics and the correct

The way Bergstrom sees it, meaningful work gives people a sense of purpose in life, and people shouldn’t be denied that experience because of a disability, be it cognitive, physical, injuryrelated or the result of a progressive disease. “It’s really important to have purposeful work in your life,” she says. “You have to have things in your life that give you meaning. (A disability) shouldn’t prevent you from participating in these things, like work for example. And that’s where assistive technologies come in.” To apply for the program, go to www.neilsquire.ca and fill out an online application or call 604-473-9363 or drop by the office at unit 400, 3999 Henning Dr.

BCA eyes ways to tighten rules Changes could make it harder to become a member of ruling civic party Jeremy Deutsch
jdeutsch@burnabynow.com
The party that’s run the city for decades is considering a series of changes on how it accepts new members and nominates candidates for office. But the NOW has learned some members of the Burnaby Citizens Association are concerned about the proposed changes, which members are expected to vote on at special general meeting set for today (Wednesday, Sept. 21). According to the party’s executive committee recommendations, which were obtained by the NOW, the BCA is proposing an application for membership must be signed by one sponsor and a seconder, and the sponsors must be party members for at least 12 months and personally know the applicant. The party is also proposing that a member can only act as a sponsor or seconder for no more than five new
members in a 12-month period. The BCA is insisting members must be Canadian citizens and on the application provide proof of citizenship. New members must also provide proof of current NDP membership. The party is also proposing a membership fee, though the amount hasn’t been set. All of the recommendations require 75 per cent approval from party members. The recommendations also note that no “plumping” is allowed, which means members would have to vote for the entire group of candidates, rather than just one or two. Some members have charged the changes would make the BCA look more like a club than a political party. But Mayor Derek Corrigan brushed aside suggestion the proposed changes would make the party less democratic by keeping new members out.
“Any time the executive is looking for ways to be able to ensure the membership reflects the community, it’s good,” he told the NOW. He also argued that parties are always looking for ways to ensure they aren’t “overwhelmed” at nomination time and instead are gaining new members over the course of several years. There have been grumblings from some members on the direction of the municipal party, most recently over the issue of demovictions in the Metrotown area. Corrigan acknowledged not everyone in the party is in agreement but added it wouldn’t be a democracy if there wasn’t dissension. He also suggested parties on the left of the political spectrum tend to have more passionate discussions on the issues. “If you’re doing something that the left feels you’re not living up to the left-wing ideals, the attacks can be very vicious,” Corrigan said.

Coun. Sav Dhaliwal told the NOW he couldn’t comment on the proposed changes, adding it was up to the membership to vote. The BCA documents also give a glimpse on how the party picks candidates for the election. The vetting process involves a vetting committee that includes two members of the BCA executive, one member representing city council, one member from the board of education and the mayor. Corrigan lamented that the party keeps losing young candidates to the provincial NDP party. “One of the key things for me to keep doing and the party keep doing is to keep redeveloping people who are reflective of our community and our demographic, getting them involved in politics,” he said. The BCA have swept the last three civic elections, getting every last council and school board seat.

Heavy rains breach barriers at building site
Jennifer Moreau
jmoreau@burnabynow.com
The City of Burnaby has issued a stop-work order for developer Adera’s Eastlake Drive construction site, after heavy rains overwhelmed the company’s filtration system with silty runoff, possibly endangering nearby Silver Creek again. Streamkeeper John Preissl was on the site Monday morning when the rains hit. “It was a mess from the get-go,” Preissl said. “At the bottom here it was full of silt rushing out from the construction site. … Cars actually had to drive around the mess here, the silty mess.” The silty water ran into the street and down the closest storm drain, which empties into Silver Creek. Preissl has been keeping an eye on the Eastlake Drive construction site for more than two years and first complained of runoff in 2014. Silver Creek is considered sensitive fish habitat, and silt can cause breathing
problems for fish or smother their eggs. Construction supervisor Chris O’Keeffe gave the NOW a tour of the site and explained how the rain caused a breach Monday morning. “There was a massive water surge; it overcame everything,” he said, adding things got out of control in a matter of minutes. “None of the silt got into the creek. Our silt fence stood up, but barely. It ran down the road.” However, the NOW confirmed the storm drain closest to the site empties into Silver Creek, which runs underground until it daylights near Government Street and Brighton Avenue. O’Keeffe said Adera is working on a number of measures to control the erosion and stop the silty runoff, but those measures aren’t all in place yet, as it’s been too rainy to finish the work. “We’re in a Catch-22 right now,” he said.
O’Keeffe grew up in Burnaby and played in the creeks as a child and said he cares about them. He also said, in his 20 years of construction work, the Eastlake site is the most challenging he’s worked on as it’s constantly changing. Adera is a family-run Vancouver development company.The Eastlake project includes six large office buildings, four of which are already built. Over the years, streamkeepers and local school children have released hundreds of thousands of tiny salmon into Burnaby’s waterways, trying to boost their numbers. The NOW contacted Fisheries and Oceans Canada for an update, as the federal agency was “assessing” the situation last week, but we did not hear back.The NOW also contacted the City of Burnaby for comment and did not hear back.

iina McNeil, the Bereavement Coordinator and Counsellor at Burnaby Hospice Society, a not-forprofit organization dedicated to providing compassionate care to individuals and families in Burnaby during the end-of-life journey, know any discussion about death can be difficult. “People don’t want to talk about death – I get it,” says McNeil. “As a society, we generally try to avoid discussing things that are both ambiguous and scary—regardless of race, culture, age or ethnicity. And yet in spite of that, we all know the reality of the situation. As the famous movie line goes: ‘none of us will get out of here alive.’ One hundred percent of Canadians will die someday – it’s inevitable. “Here at Burnaby Hospice Society, we’ve learned that the more prepared you are, the more information you have, and the more tolerance you have for the subject, the better you’ll deal with the end-of-life process.” Serving the Burnaby community for over 30 years, the Burnaby Hospice Society has thrived in large part thanks to their efforts to provide psychosocial support and raise awareness surrounding hospice, palliative and end-of-life care. “We have added workshops that provide important education about the end-of-life
journey free to Burnaby residents,” says McNeil. “Not everyone has to come to a support group or to a counselling session when they come here. You can just come for the information sessions.” “We’re not trying to focus on the scary, gloomy, darker side of the discussion,” she explains. “Instead, we focus on helping people build mental resilience, manage fatigue and prepare for self-management and well-being through the end-of-life journey. It’s about changing the narrative.” McNeil points out that Burnaby Hospice Society’s new seed grant initiative, made possible by the BC Centre for Palliative Care, is designed to educate families on the end-of-life process.

Doodles and etchings Library branches host two new art exhibitions When is a doodle more than just a doodle? A new off-site exhibition by Burnaby Art Gallery offers up an examination of the art of the doodle. Ever Onward, a presentation of new work by Ben Duncan, is on at the Bob Prittie (Metrotown) branch of Burnaby Public Library until Nov. 15. A press release notes that the tradition of the doodle is a longstanding one, from
the “ancient papyrus loose leaf notes of the Babylonian magi” onwards. “This showcase honours those whose artwork earned them the ‘easily distracted’ distinction in their report cards and presents a loosely tied narrative of pilgrims, denizens and otherworldly entities who dared to venture ever onward,” the release says. Duncan is a Vancouverbased artist who earned his
bachelor of fine arts degree at the University of Manitoba in 2009. The exhibition can be viewed anytime during library hours at 6100 Willingdon Ave. Meanwhile, at the McGill library branch, the gallery is presenting Distillations: Lithographs and Etchings by Catherine M. Stewart. Stewart herself has chosen the works to be displayed for this exhibition, part of

A Burnaby theatre director is celebrating huge successes at the recent Community Theatre Coalition Awards. The awards, presented Sept. 10 at the Coast Capital Playhouse in White Rock, turned into quite a party for Nancy von Euw and the cast and crew from DramaNatrix Productions’ The It Girl. Von Euw, who’s from Burnaby, directed the musical last October at Studio 1398 on Granville Island. It was a Canadian premiere of the work centring around the life of the original “It Girl,” Clara Bow. The It Girl won in nine categories, including Best Director – Musical for von Euw herself and for Best
Production – Musical. “As you can imagine we were thrilled beyond words to hear our name called so many times,” von Euw said in an email. “It was a wonderful night for DramaNatrix.” Burnaby’s own Katie Purych also captured top honours for her star turn in the show, winning the award for Best Performance by an Actress in a Leading Role – Musical. Also recognized were music director Jeremy Hoffman, choreographer Erika Babins and costume designer Marci Herron. Dimitrios Stephanoy earned honours for leading actor, while two other performers also took honours for supporting roles: Babins among the actresses, and Robin Sukorokoff among the actors. A big congratulations to all the winners.
DramaNatrix Productions’ next outing will be the Canadian premiere of Bad Girls, based on the British TV show of the same name, running Oct. 1 to 15 at the Renegade Shop at 125 East Second Ave. Check out www.dramanatrixproduc tions.com for more details.

Rotarians fund fitness circuit By Jennifer Moreau

Burnaby’s three Rotary clubs and the city have teamed up to bring a new outdoor fitness circuit to Fraser Foreshore Park. The outdoor exercise equipment should be in-
stalled next summer, but the groundbreaking ceremony took place last Friday. “This is just another part of our contribution to make our city a better place to live, play and work,” said Rotarian Bala Naidoo. The fitness circuit equipment will be clustered in
four groups of three. The idea for the circuit came about when the Rotary clubs approached the city to discuss a project that could commemorate Canada’s 150th anniversary, which takes place in 2017. Mayor Derek Corrigan attended Friday’s ground-

Steelers pick up the pace
Bruno counts winner in club’s third straight OT contest Dan Olson
dolson@burnabynow.com
In just a couple of weeks, the Grandview Steelers have established a good on-ice trend. The Pacific Junior B Hockey League club has yet to lose a game in regulation, and added two more wins to their total by edging the defending champion Mission City Outlaws in overtime, and blanked the Surrey Knights. Sunday’s 5-0 shutout was a convincing performance by the hard-working Steelers, who took the lead 2:19 into the match on Jeffrey Wong’s second of the season, then expanded that advantage with four unanswered goals in the second frame. Netminder Matteo Paler-Chow wasn’t tested often, but turned aside all 13 shots. At the other end, Grandview’s offence generated 49 shots to keep Surrey’s Jeevan Bains on edge much of the afternoon. Also scoring were Mateo Coltellaro, Kevin Kutasi, Cole MacEwen and Jacob Siebenga, with Wong adding a pair of assists. The win pushed the Steelers’ record to 3-0-0-1, first overall in the Tom Shaw Conference. A day earlier, Nico Bruno and Christian Bettiol scored twice each as the visitors knocked off Mission 4-3 in extra time. In overtime, the Steelers won possession in their own zone and broke out with a two-on one. Coltellaro delivered a fine pass that Bruno buried for the win just 2:28 into the four-on-four frame. “(Coltellaro) showed great patience in drawing the defender to him and setting up (the winner),” said head coach Stevan Matic. “I was a little disappointed that we let (Mission) come back and put us (into overtime), but in the end we walked away with two points, which is what we wanted.” Mission’s Michael Sande forced overtime with 13 seconds left in the third, after Bettiol’s second of the game gave Grandview a 3-2 lead with two minutes left. Paler-Chow was sharp as the Outlaws out-shot Grandview 39-38, including two shots in overtime. The Steelers visited the Delta Icehawks on Tuesday (past the NOW’s deadline), and head to Port Moody for a game on Saturday.They play host to Delta on Sunday, 4 p.m. at the Burnaby Winter Club.
In the huddle: The St. Thomas More Knights gear up for their regular season home opener this Friday, 7:30 p.m. when they host the No. 2-ranked Terry Fox Ravens at Burnaby Lake West complex. PHOTO NOW FILE PHOTO
Loss cushioned by strong fourth
It wasn’t a win, but in the coach’s viewpoint, it wasn’t quite a loss, either. In the final exhibition test prior to this Friday’s 2016 B.C. High School football regular season opener, the St. Thomas More Knights ran up against a vaunted Vancouver College crew and fell 2014 in a Catholic school senior AAA showdown. With the No. 1 Fighting Irish establishing a 10-0 advantage in the opening half, the Knights could have buckled and broke under the strain. Instead, the Burnaby
school regrouped and battled back to make it a close game, and a loss to build upon. “I was happy with the way we finished the game.We didn’t quit and played hard right until the final whistle,” said STM head coach Bernie Kully. “We are a young team and the goal is to get better as we progress through the year. Today, despite the loss, we showed some of that learning and progression.” Vancouver College, who took over the top-spot in provincial polling two weeks ago with a win over Terry Fox, ac-
tually led 17-0 before STM rallied in the fourth quarter. Quarterback Kolby Buljevic completed 15 of 30 pass attempts for 160 yards, including a pair of touchdown passes to Tyler Eckert and Anthony Prpic. He also completed a two-point convert pass to Devon Hayek. Eckert finished with 57 yards rushing, while Buljevic scrambled for 30 yards. Defensively, the Knights were led by Matteo Morreira’s 11 tackles, while Matteo Montagliani and Joel Pielak chipped in six each.
Mateo Carteri contributed five tackles and pulled down an interception. For the No. 5-ranked Knights, the regular season begins Friday with a bang as Fox, a pre-season favourite, comes to Burnaby Lake West (7:30 p.m.). It’ll provide an excellent opportunity for STM to build on a strong fourth quarter. “We made mistakes and have lots of learning to do,” noted Kully. “Now we start league play where the wins and losses have a bigger meaning to your season.”
SPORTS BRIEFS
Tamura jets to Slovenia to skate at Jr. Grand Prix Sarah Tamura will be Canada’s lone solo female entry at this week’s ISU Junior Grand Prix event in Slovenia. The 15-year-old Burnaby skater is looking to build on a successful 2016 spring season where she won the Canadian junior national title, which helped earn her a berth at the ISU World Junior figure skating championships last March in Hungary.Tamura placed 13th with an ISU personal best score. It was a similar result in her previous ISU Junior Grand Prix event in Latvia in 2015. It will be her fourth international competition on behalf of Canada. A former novice national champion,Tamura is one of four skaters who’ll represent Canada in Lju-
bljana, Slovenia at the fifth event in the 2016-17 ISU Junior Grand Prix circuit.
GRIZZLIES’ SNIPER STARTS HOT It’s been a solid start to the new season for the B.C. Hockey League’s Victoria Grizzlies, and Burnaby’s Keyvan Mokhtari is one reason why. The second-year forward has scored four times in the team’s opening five games, including a pair of clutch shorthanded tallies as the Grizzlies posted a 4-1-0 record. His tally Saturday was Victoria’s only goal in a 2-1 loss to Cowichan Valley. As a rookie last year, the 5-foot8 Burnaby Winter Club alum netted 11 goals and 19 assists over 57 games.
“Mokhtari’s a young guy and what he’s doing as an 18 year-old in this league is pretty exceptional.You can see his speed and we’re just learning how to make him his best player still and how to use him in the best way because he is a special player,”Victoria coach Craig Didmon told the Goldstream News Gazette.
TOUGH BOUNCES FOR EDC MEN’ The EDC Burnaby men’s premier soccer team matched up well against the provincial cup champions but were unable to make a lead stick, falling 3-2 to Pegasus FC in the Vancouver Metro Soccer League opener. While Pegasus struck first, the Burnaby squad replied with two markers, off the feet of Joe Agi-
ba and Amara Toure, to take the lead.The Horsemen countered and claimed the win with a vigorous rally.
HOLLY THROWS DOWN HAMMER Those wet months of training many moons ago under the gaze of legendary Burnaby Central secondary coach Ken Taylor proved to be an excellent foundation for Burnaby native and Vernon resident Cory Holly. The 58-year-old Holly will be among the athletes competing this week at the 2016 55+ B.C. Games in Coquitlam. Holly will be attempting to improve on the 41.19 metres distance he achieved at the recent Americas Masters Games in Vancouver in the hammerthrow.
A multiple title holder in the masters bodybuilding circuit, Holly is competing in the 16-pound hammerthrow and is aiming to beat his personal best of 42.29m.
KHAN NAMED SHOWCASE MVP It was a spotlight chance for many of the top B.C. boys basketball players, and Burnaby’s Jiordano Khan made the most of it. The product of the South Burnaby Metro Club was named the underclassman MVP at the North Pole Hoops Showcase, a three-day camp to identify Canada’s best basketball prospects from Grades 8 to 12. Khan, who started Grade 10 this month, plays for Burnaby South.The B.C. camp drew nearly 100 players.

Clan ready for conference play
A 5-0 start to the season is everyone’s dream. Spending some of that time in Hawaii just added to it. The Simon Fraser University men’s soccer team wrapped up the pre-season slate with a two game sweep in Hawaii last week. They defeated the Hawaii Pacific University Sharks and BrighamYoung University-
I
Hawaii Seasiders both by 2-1 scores. Mamadi Camara scored once and set up another against the Sharks, with Riley Pang also scoring. Against BYU-H, the Clan’s Michael North scored late in the game to secure the win. They launch conference play against Seattle Pacific on Thursday, 7 p.m. at SFU.

GRAHAM, Isabelle McGivern Our proud and feisty Mother, Mother-in-Law, Grandmother, Great-Grandmother, Aunt and friend to all, died peacefully early in the morning of Monday, September 12th, 2016. She was born on December 17, 1925 in New Westminster and lived there all her life, almost 91 years.
She was determined, positive and never gave in to self pity or complaints. She taught us all that perseverance and a wicked sense of humour could get a person through anything and she was the first one to help anyone who needed a hand. She spoke often about one of the greatest things that she ever did was to move into Thornebridge Gardens in New Westminster, long before she really required any assistance. She loved the friends that she made there and would always fill a little bowl of candy outside her door every Saturday morning for all to enjoy. Her greatest pride in life however, was her family and all their pets; her sons, Jim (Barbi), Howard and John, and precious grandchildren Jane, (Dave), Kris, (Ashit) Maria (Tennille), Angelica (Scott), Daniel (Denise) and Jolene (Krista). Her eyes always danced when she spoke of her greatgrandchildren Robert, Lauren, Samir, Maya, Kaein, Grayson, Irelyn, Peyton and Skylar and her love was clearly shown with chocolate bars given whenever anyone was leaving! Our dear and precious lady will be forever missed. In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to your local SPCA. A celebration of her life will be held in the near future.
Godspeed Mom, Gran, Great-Granny and friend. You will be in our hearts forever.

She is predeceased by her parents, Mary Ann and Hugh John McGivern, both born in Ireland; her husband Ray, and her siblings, Esther, Hugh and Jim. While raising her sons and working full time at the New Westminster City Hall, she was always busy and had a talent for cooking, baking, gardening and sewing. She enjoyed many global trips with her husband, Ray, and later, to California to see her grandchildren. She hosted many New Year’s Day parties, Easters at their cottage and much later, she joined her family for every important celebration while insisting that she provide the ham and turkey! Despite her busy schedule, she made it a point to always look her very best and have the shiniest shoes in town!
