VETERAN RECALLS BEING STRANDED AT SEA IN WW2
‘They kept waking me up to ask the time’ By Theresa McManus
tmcmanus@burnabynow.com
A Burnaby man’s wartime memento has stood the test of time. Harold, who asked that his surname be withheld, served as an engineer for the British Merchant Navy in the Second World War.While he was in a reserved occupation and didn’t have to serve in the war, the 20-year-old chose to join the Merchant Navy in 1941. “I wanted to go and see the world,” he explains. “I took off and was on the Celtic Star, one of the Blue Star Line ships.” Harold, 94, crisscrossed the North Atlantic during the war, often sailing through atrocious weather. “It was bad. Just rough. Rough waters and howling wind,” he says. “I used to get seasick. I wasn’t a good sailor. Sometimes I would feel like Continued on page 9

‘HE’S (TRUDEAU) TRYING TO EASE US INTO A DECISION ...’
Mayor: Ocean deal paves way for pipeline By Tereza Verenca
tverenca@burnabynow.com
Burnaby’s mayor says the $1.5-billion Oceans Protection Plan announced by the federal government this week is a sign of what’s to
come. Derek Corrigan told the NOW he’s worried Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will approve the proposed Trans Mountain expansion after Monday’s funding announcement.

“I think all of us can look at this as being something that’s anticipatory. He’s trying to ease us into a decision that’s going to be made later on in December by making these announcements now. It’ll be disappointing, but it
certainly is, I think, a precursor to an announcement we’re going to like even less,” said Corrigan. Trudeau’s announcement comes exactly six weeks before his Liberal cabinet is expected to make a deci-
, -
sion on the Kinder Morgan file.The federal response appears to satisfy one of the five conditions Premier Christy Clark set out for any new pipeline development – that there be a world-leading coastal spill response
system. Corrigan said while it’s hard not to welcome investment in oil spill response, no plan will change his mind about the pipeline. Continued on page 4

Newsnow THE PIPELINE
Lawyer: Panel report has ‘backfired’ “If the government approves this at all, it’s ignoring the report.” – Greg McDade By Tereza Verenca
tverenca@burnabynow.com
A new report authored by the federal panel charged with gathering feedback on the proposed Trans Mountain expansion has “backfired” on the government, says the City of Burnaby’s lawyer. In May, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau tasked a three-person panel to visit communities along the proposed Kinder Morgan pipeline and marine shipping routes, just days before the National Energy Board gave the $6.8-billion project the green light and attached 157 conditions to its approval.The creation of the panel was part of an election promise the Liberals made to implement a new review process for the Kinder Morgan proposal. The panel’s findings – collected by former Tsawwassen First Nation Chief Kim Baird, formerYukon premier Tony Penikett and former Alberta deputy minister Annette Trimbee – were made public on Thursday.The 58-page document does not lay out recommendations, rather it gives a summary of what was heard at the hearings in B.C. and Alberta. The report poses six questions to the federal government: 1. Can construction of a
new pipeline be reconciled with Canada’s climate commitments? 2. In the absence of a comprehensive national energy strategy, how can policy-makers effectively assess projects such as the Trans Mountain pipeline? 3. How might cabinet square approval of the Trans Mountain pipeline with its commitment to reconciliation with First Nations and to the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples’ principles of “free, prior, and informed consent?” 4. Given the changed economic and political circumstances, the perceived flaws in the NEB process, and also the criticism of the ministerial panel’s own review, how can Canada be confident in its assessment of the project’s economic rewards and risks? 5. If approved, what route would best serve aquifer, municipal, aquatic and marine safety? 6. How does federal policy define the terms “social licence” and “Canadian public interest” and their inter-relationships? “I think they’ve posed some very difficult questions for the government,” said Greg McDade, a lawyer for the City of Burnaby. McDade said the fifth question about the proposed route is an impor-

PHOTO FILE PHOTO tant one. “I think if the government was to honestly answer that question, Kinder Morgan can’t go (forward),” he said, adding the six weeks left until cabinet has to make a decision is not enough time to seriously consider the report. “If the government makes the decision in that time period, I think it will be because they ignored those questions. If the govern-
ment approves this at all, it’s ignoring the report. “That report has no legal basis, and the panel was mostly a political idea, but I think it’s backfired on the government. If they even make a pretext of listening to it, they have to turn down the project,” McDade said. Elsie Dean, a founding member of Burnaby Residents Opposed to Kinder Morgan Expansion, echoed McDade’s sentiments.
“How can government give due consideration to these questions between now and Dec. 19?” she asked. “It would take another year before they even began to answer those questions with any knowledge. In my opinion, the panel process was to placate the knowledgeable public and was a waste of taxpayers’ money.We are right back where we were before this report.”
Peter Julian, NDP MP for New Westminster-Burnaby, called the hearings and the report “window dressing.” “They have listened a bit to the public, but there’s no recommendations; it’s just a series of comments. My sense is that the government really is going to renege on their election promise about approvals around these projects that actually come with a social licence from the Continued on page 4

KM prez faces questions about spill response Anderson says:“I’ve read the science on both sides (climate change) and I don’t pretend to be smart enough to know which is right” The president of Kinder Morgan Canada was grilled on oil spill response recently, weeks after a tug boat diesel spill near Bella Bella. Ian Anderson said the province needs a “geographic-based approach” to spill response along its coast in order to have more resources in more places so it can react more quickly. “If an incident occurs, there really ends up being one thing that matters – time, speed of deployment.
It’s what makes the difference between a successful operation and one that’s less successful,” he told the Greater Vancouver Board of Trade on Nov. 3 Anderson told the crowd his company plans to invest $150 million in marine spill response. “All marine traffic will benefit from the investments that we’re making to locate five new bases along the coast, to employ over 100 new people, to invest,
as I say between $100 and $200 million in boats, in booms, in training and bases like the one that you see planned for Vancouver harbour,” he said. When asked about his meetings with local mayors, Anderson said the last time he met with Mayor Derek Corrigan was in 2011. “I still hope at some point Derek and I will sit down and at least try and chart a path forward. Burnaby is important to us.We
have a strong presence in Burnaby.We must have responsible relationships with the fire chief, with the first (responders) in that city. We must be aligned with them,” Anderson said. One comment that created some buzz was Anderson’s thoughts on climate change. He said there’s a disagreement about the degree to which humans influence global warming. “I’ve read the science on both sides and I don’t pre-
tend to be smart enough to know which is right.What I do know is the broad public political view, societal view is that over time, we as a race should reduce our reliance on fossil fuels. I think that’s a given,” he said. The federal government is expected to make a decision on the $6.8-billion project by Dec. 19. – By TerezaVerenca

City now Mayor sees pipeline in future Continued from page 1 “I don’t believe that having the ability to respond quickly to a disaster is going to prevent the implications of that, no matter how quick you are. Bitumen is an oil that doesn’t float. It drops to the bottom of the ocean. No matter how hard you work or no matter how quick you are, you’re going to lose oil that’s going to be there for hundreds of years into the future,” he said.
“So far, Prime Minister Trudeau has basically followed the Conservative agenda. He hasn’t done anything differently. He made all kinds of promises that he was going to do business differently. … I think there’s going to be a lot of young people who voted for Trudeau who are going to be very disappointed,” added Corrigan. Many organizations echo the mayor’s sentiments
about the federal government setting the stage for a yay decision, including Dogwood Initiative and BROKE. The Oceans Protection Plan includes restoring and protecting marine ecosystems and habitats, dealing with abandoned boats and wrecks and investing in oil spill cleanup research and methods. – with files from Jeremy Deutsch

Stewart: A bad deal for B.C. Continued from page 3 communities that are concerned,” said Julian. For Kennedy Stewart, NDP MP for Burnaby South, there wasn’t anything in the report that hasn’t already been said since Kinder Morgan first submitted its application to the NEB in 2013. “It was designed to buy the government more time and that’s what it did. It really points what a bad deal this is for British Columbia.You can’t make a busi-
ness case from British Columbia’s perspective.What kind of deal do you take all the risk and none of the reward?” he said. “If Trudeau says yes to this pipeline, he’s betraying British Columbians. It’s like putting a dump in your backyard and expecting people to like it.” Terry Beech, Liberal MP for Burnaby North-Seymour, said he’s “somewhat relieved” that the views of his constituents are reflected in the report. “I think they do a good
job of describing some of the issues,” he told the NOW. Beech didn’t want to speculate on what the federal government’s final decision might be, but said he’s currently talking to all MPs, making sure they’re informed about the implications of a yay or nay. He encouraged anyone in his riding who still has questions or concerns to contact his office.

A Burnaby man has been identified by police as the driver behind the wheel of a car that crashed into a group of cyclists in Richmond Sunday morning. According to Richmond RCMP, a 2013 Lexus was travelling westbound along River Road around 10 a.m. when it collided with a group of six cyclists who were heading eastbound along the road. One cyclist, a 33-year-old man from Vancouver, died
at the scene, while two other cyclists were taken to hospital. A 39-year-old cyclist from Vancouver is in critical condition while a 46-yearold cyclist from Vancouver is in serious condition. The remaining three cyclists suffered minor injuries.The driver of the Lexus, a 19-year-old man from Burnaby, was unhurt and stayed at the scene. Police noted he was cooperative. There was no information about any possible charges for the driver. “This was a very difficult collision scene for our of-
ficers to investigate,” said Richmond RCMP Cpl. Dennis Hwang in a statement. “To put it into some perspective, the carbon fiber frame and forks on one of the bikes was snapped in multiple places like twigs or matchsticks. It is too early to tell what contributed to this terrible crash.The cyclists did appear to be wearing their helmets.” Anyone with information about the crash is asked to contact Const. Purghart of the Richmond RCMP Road Safety Unit at 604278-1212.
Pedestrian killed near Duthie Ave. An 18-year-old woman has been identified as the victim of a collision between a car and pedestrian in Burnaby Monday evening. The woman, whose name was not released, was struck at around 6 p.m. near Duthie Avenue and Burn-
aby Mountain Parkway and died later in hospital. The driver remained at the scene and was co-operating with investigators. Police are looking at the possibility the woman wasn’t in a crosswalk. As of Tuesday morning, the incident was still
under investigation. The collision also has RCMP reminding people to use crosswalks and be visible to drivers. “Don’t assume they see you, wear a reflector,” said RCMP Staff Sgt. Maj. John Buis.

Opinion now OUR VIEW
Tired of the pipeline? Brace yourself OK, we get it. Some readers are just plain sick and tired of reading and hearing about the pipeline in Burnaby. Others are saying we aren’t doing enough on the pipeline. For those who say we’re doing too much on the pipeline, here’s what we say:This project will have a massive impact on this city and the area. It will increase tanker traffic by 700 per cent and potentially in-
crease environmental impacts in both the short term and long term. Not to mention the safety risks on land in a highly populated urban area. And then there’s the matter of public policy and community consent. The NEB process that was used to look at this project was seriously flawed. The panel that came back and was supposed to fill in the missing pieces with answers ended up by coming
back with six questions for the federal government (see story on page 3). They’re all good questions. And questions that all point to the need to seriously review the entire application.With the federal government poised to make a decision before Christmas, any serious review appears to be highly unlikely. In fact, most pundits say that the panel was just for show so Justin Trudeau can say that he kept his election
promise.The smart money appears to be on the pipeline getting approval. And Trudeau’s appearance this week promising $1.5 billion to protect our oceans is surely a bit of pre-approval fluffery to rationalize the decision to come. The reality is that if there’s a spill – and the City of Vancouver places the likelihood of a spill in the Burrard Inlet at 70 to 87 per cent over 50 years if the Kinder Morgan Pipeline
is approved – nothing can clean it up. Oil sinks to the bottom and industry considers a 10 to 15 per cent recovery a good percentage. The impact would be irreversible. For those who say we aren’t doing enough on the pipeline and its real and potential impacts on Burnaby and the west coast, we say: Get involved. Make your voice heard. Whether it’s a letter, or a petition, or a protest sign
– it can make a difference. We can’t tell you how many times we’ve heard people say: “Well, I think there’s already a group doing that... so, I don’t need to.” Or, “I voted in the last election to stop this, and it made no difference, so why would standing up now make a difference?” Well, one thing is for sure:You can bet that if you don’t do anything, absolutley nothing will change.
MY VIEW KEITH BALDREY
Two different visions for B.C.
Two events in the past few days provided a glimpse into the focused message box the B.C. Liberals will be using during the next six months to secure their fifth straight election win. The party has been good at honing a very disciplined and narrowly defined message aimed directly at the people who have kept it in power for so long: the older middle class. And it’s a message that deliberately skirts those who will never vote for them no matter what: hardline environmentalists, social activists, dyed-in-the-wool New Democrats and those who advocate for a larger government role in society. The first event featured a beaming Premier Christy Clark, wearing her good luck hard hat and talking about the liquefied natural gas industry. Back in 2013, she painted a rosy picture of the creation of a new industry that would provide economic miracles for British Columbians, which could include everything from retiring the provincial debt to eliminating the sales tax. But the emergence of a glut of natural gas on the world markets put almost all major investment decisions on hold for who knows how long. Still, the event Clark was at was indeed marking one of those long-awaited investment decisions in an LNG project (this one was theWoodfibre project near Squamish, and it’s still a long ways from getting built). Just a few hours after the LNG announcement, the B.C. Liberal party’s final
convention before the election kicked into gear. Clark’s pep rally-type speech to more than 1,300 adoring members touched on the themes that form the core of her party’s election platform. Her emphasis on consistently balancing the government’s annual budget, on keeping taxes and unemployment low and on boasting the best job creation record in the country are major ones. Joining those is a relatively new one: extending the social safety net, particularly for single mothers. But the overarching theme is this: the economy is everything, and B.C. leads the country on that front because it is fiscally cautious, keeps taxes low and puts people to work. The NDP, on the other hand, is showing signs of having a distinctly different platform come next spring, one that incorporates huge spending increases on social programs and education and embraces hard pro-environmental protection rules when it comes to resource development. It’s shaping up to be a contest of two starkly different visions. One embraces improving the economy as the way to provide more services, while the other is leaning towards redirecting existing taxes – and introducing higher taxes on higher-income earners – to expand services, particularly for those less well-off. There’s no question a clear choice is coming into view for British Columbians. Keith Baldrey is chief political reporter for Global B.C.

How would a new pipeline be less safe than an aged one?
Kinder Morgan prez faces questions about oil spill response
Dear Editor Re: ‘I’m afraid for my life,’ Burnaby NOW, Nov. 2. I have a question for Grayson Barke, if you are so scared of pipelines, why are you living near one now? The pipelines and tank farms have been in that area long before ANY housing went in. If the municipality believes that the incident risk is acceptable, why don’t you? Why do you believe a new state-of-theOur oil is ethical art pipeline storage and extracted and facility is more danresponsibly gerous than the present aged facility? Why do environmentalists believe oil companies don’t care about the environment? The last thing an oil company wants is to lose product, especially at the low price currently available. The more product that we can get at the world price, the better our quality of life will be. Remember, our oil is ethical and extracted responsibly. Isn’t it better for the world than oil from Saudi Arabia and, other countries with atrocious human rights records? According to you, no. Shame on you and your anti-pipeline movement.

I am all in favour of a cleaner world, but are we willing to give up a good part of our society’s wealth if we stop the crude oil exports? Which public service are we willing to shrink/eliminate due to resulting lower revenue? Mr. Anderson, if you are reading this, please know that I understand your tough position. Just do your best and be patient while we come to our senses and accept the ugly compromise. Last but not least, could you guys move a portion of the crude oil terminal to Tsawwassen? Or route it through Washington.

‘I’m afraid for my life,’ says SFU student Simon Mr. Barke can’t be for real. You cannot be that naive to not observe the things around you up there and notice some industrial activity. It isnt just Kinder but Shell and Esso has stuff up there. They turn that oil into things everyday residents use like Jet Fuel and other petroleum products like gas for transportation. I think this is fear mongering on a level very similar to mayor Robertson. bill smith There is a danger, but it is not the pipeline or the tank farm... it’s the toxic ultra-left ideology. Black Lives Matter, Idle no more, occupy Wall St. and hysterical environmentalism are all manifestations of this societal plague.
Did fireworks ban help Halloween? MikeB Halloween was pretty well a bust in my Burnaby neighborhood with about 15 kids coming by for the night. I am wondering if the PC police have watered down the day; limit fireworks, make sure costumes don’t hurt anyone’s feelings and think twice about giving unhealthy candy to trick or treaters. Might as well scrap the evening and let the kids enjoy another exciting night in front of their computers.

Notice of Intent
FOR WALKERS AND RUNNERS
Central Park gets $2M for trail improvements By Jeremy Deutsch
jdeutsch@burnabynow.com
A popular Burnaby park is about to get a big upgrade that should be welcome news for avid runners and walkers in the community. City council recently approved spending nearly $2 million for trail improvements around Central Park. A staff report noted the perimeter project will provide the first and most important of three multi-use trail segments to circumnavigate the perimeter of Central Park.The first phase of the project is 0.85 kilometres in length along the west perimeter of Boundary Road replacing an existing dirt roadside trail.The multi-use trail will be a separated walkway four metres or less in
width depending on trees, roadside and utilities. The report also stated future phases will include the south perimeter along Imperial Street replacing an existing sidewalk and gravel path, and the east perimeter along Patterson Avenue replacing an existing sidewalk.The north perimeter is the existing B.C. Parkway. The city estimates the total circuit, when complete, will be approximately four kilometres in length and cost $4 million to construct over the next four years. The cost of the first phase includes a Canada 150 grant in the amount of $500,000. “That’s going to be a big help to the people who are up there to do running and walks that go on there during the course of the year,”
said Mayor Derek Corrigan. He also suggested the improvements are an opportunity for people to run or walk around the park in a safe environment. The report noted Central Park currently has limited pedestrian or bicycle access to the park, and no opportunity for walking or bicycling around the park. The city said the current paths are made up of materials which are not accessible and provide only limited and disconnected circulation along busy arterial roads. Central Park features a second-growth coastal Douglas fir forest, which covers approximately 64 hectares, or 75 per cent of the park, and it’s estimated more than a half of the city’s population visits the park annually.

Citynow ‘We were torpedoed right off the African coast’ Continued from page 1 jumping over the side I was so darn sick.” Harold and the rest of his crew travelled the world, stopping at ports in Africa, North America, Russia and South America, transporting food in a refrigerated ship, and sometimes people who were moving from England to Canada.While making a stop in Buenos Aires to pick up beef, Harold purchased a Rolex watch. “It was a cheap watch,” he says of the watch that cost about 20 pounds at the time. “It’s been quite a good watch. South America was a good place for watches.” On March 29, 1943 Harold’s ship was hit by a torpedo when it was about four miles off the coast of Sierra Leone. “I was in bed.The torpedo hit about 40 feet from where I was asleep. All of a
sudden my bunk collapsed. I tried to stand up and my legs were shaking. I thought to myself, ‘I have to get to the lifeboat station’,” Harold says. “It was such a violent explosion. I had a nice cabin with a bed and a table – everything collapsed.” At the lifeboat station, the second mate told sailors to “jump into the sea” and climb into the lifeboats. Harold found himself on a life raft with about 25 men. “We were torpedoed right off the African coast, just about on the equator,” he says. “It was rather strange. Right on the equator in winter, it gets dark about 4:30 p.m. I was the only one with a watch.They would keep saying, ‘What time is it?’ I would say, ‘It’s 4:45.’They’d say, ‘No, your watch has stopped.’ I said, no it hasn’t. This went on and on. In the end I threatened to take the watch off and throw it in the
ocean.They kept waking me up to ask the time.” In a letter Harold wrote to his parents after being rescued, he said that there were planes overhead each day but they didn’t see the lifeboat. One finally did but crashed into the ocean. One day, the sailors saw a ship coming toward them and began waving at what turned out to be an Italian ship, which was “on the other side.” “The crew were decent. I went on the ship.They wanted to know where we were going, what we were carrying. I told them everything.They said, ‘What would you like?’We said we’d like water. He said, I’m sorry, but I’ve got lots of wine. He gave us all these bottles of wine,” Harold says. “Some of the crew were drinking too much damned wine.” While at sea near the
equator, the sailors faced scorching heat, water rations, stormy seas and sharks. “They just hovered around the boat,” Harold says. “You couldn’t be washing your hands in the water in case a shark came out.” After three-and-a-half days in the lifeboat, the men were rescued and transported to Freetown, the capital of Serra Leone, where they’d remain for more than two months with thousands of other sailors who’d been rescued from ships hit by torpedoes. “We were all waiting to get home,” Harold says. Harold has received several medals for his contributions, including the Atlantic Star, which is given out for those who spent considerable time on the North Atlantic in the war. Harold was at sea when the Second World War end-

ed in 1945. He continued to serve with the Merchant Navy until 1951, when he returned to England, married his sweetheart Sylvia, whom he’d met in 1947 in their hometown of Sheffield and moved to Canada. The watch that Harold wore through wartime and through tumultuous times on a life raft in the Atlan-
tic remains on his wrist decades later. Not long ago, he took it to Cartwright Jewellers in New West for repairs, including the need to have custom-made gaskets because of its age. “I’ve had it all these years. I’ve had it occasionally cleaned,” he says. “It has kept working all these years.”

E-petition fails to keep Donald Trump out jdeutsch@burnabynow.com
Donald Trump, if he wants to come to Canada, will be treated like every other visitor. Last Friday, the federal government responded to an e-petition by New Westminster resident David Black, which called on Can-
ada to ban Trump from entering the country until he apologizes for his call to ban all Muslims from entering the United States. The response from the Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship stated: “Should Mr.Trump wish to visit Canada, he, like any other visitor, would be examined to determine
whether he would be authorized to enter the country.” The official reply went on to note all visitors to Canada are assessed against the same criteria, regardless of their country of origin. “Several things can make a foreign national inadmissible under the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act, including: having a crimi-
nal conviction, involvement in organized crime, violating human or international rights, or engaging in acts such as espionage or terrorism,” the response read. “A foreign national can also be inadmissible for health or financial reasons, or due to an inadmissible family member.” The e-petition was spon-

THEATRE FOR SMALL ONES A Burnaby actor is part of a magical new play for kids that opens later this month in North Vancouver. Presentation House Theatre and Oily Cart Theatre
are teaming up for Baking Time, a show aimed at three- to six-year-olds. It combines puppetry, music and live action baking to tell the story of master chefs Bun and Bap, who try to contain the damage they’ve done by over-yeasting a batch of dough.When an unwelcomeYeasty Beasty springs to life, the fun begins. In the cast is Aaron Lau of Burnaby, who’s become a veteran of the Vancouver theatre scene since his debut in Footloose at Theatre Under The Stars in 2004. He’s since performed in more than 50 shows – including nine seasons with Theatre Under the Stars and three with Royal City Musical Theatre – and formed his own company, Intimate Theatre Productions, to produce small-scale musicals.
In this show, he’ll play one of the bakers – who, by the way, will in fact be baking during the performance. (And yes, each audience member gets to go home with a tiny loaf of homemade bread.) “This is a show that involves all the senses – touch, taste, smell, sight and sound,” says Kim Selody, artistic director of Presentation House Theatre, in a press release. “Our hope is that everyone goes home with an understanding of the delights of bread making and, perhaps, an appetite to bake up some adventures of their own.” Baking Time is onstage at Presentation House, 333 Chesterfield Ave., from Nov. 24 to Dec. 11.Tickets are $15.

Do you have good hearing but maybe not as good as it used to be? Many people find themselves frustrated when they can hear, but not understand speech. Hearing loss can develop gradually where people do not realize they even have it and even mild cases can lead to difficulties with processing speech. Fortunately, through Swiss based technology, modern hearing aids can help by stimulating the auditory centers of the brain responsible for speech understanding. Understanding speech is a necessary part of communication and hearing loss has been proven to limit our daily interactions. Do you rely on visual cues (e.g. reading lips) or are you applying more effort while listening? Maybe you are completely avoiding difficult listening situations all together? If so, these are common signs of hearing loss and it is important to understand the cost of untreated hearing loss. Did you know that untreated hearing loss can cause the auditory nerves and auditory cortex of the brain to not be stimulated properly? The technical term for this is “auditory deprivation.” People who suffer
if hearing aids are put off for too long, it can cause long-lasting speech understanding difficulties.
The new Audéo B-R hearing aid helps stimulate the auditory centers of the brain that are important for processing speech. from auditory deprivation often have difficulty processing speech. Research shows that the longer an ear goes without hearing, the greater the effect of auditory deprivation can be. Hearing aids may prevent auditory deprivation as they provide stimulation to the auditory nerves and auditory cortex. Further, the speech understanding abilities of some people improve with hearing aids (recovery from auditory deprivation). However,
Auditory deprivation may be prevented for some clients through the new rechargeable Phonak Audéo B-R hearing aids. This cutting-edge hearing technology allows hearing aids to automatically adapt to any listening environment, making it easier to understand speech while providing appropriate amplification needed to stimulate the brain. The rechargeable system is easy to use and provides 24 hours‡ of hearing with only one charge. Connect Hearing is currently looking to not only improve hearing, but also to enhance the clarity of speech. We are particularly interested in candidates who find understanding speech to be difficult and can benefit from a free trial to see whether they notice an improvement. Interested people can register for a free hearing evaluation and a no-obligation trial of the rechargeable Audéo B-R hearing aids by calling 1.888.408.7377 or visiting connecthearing.ca/recharge.

Honour Roll recognizes residents who served Want to learn more about the contribution of Burnaby residents to the First and Second World Wars? There are several places to find more information on the local connection to military efforts overseas, starting with Burnaby’s honour roll. An honour roll was a
way for communities to keep track and recognize men and women who volunteered for active service during both world wars. In 1916, Burnaby crafted its own honour roll for those fighting in the First World War. By the end of the war more than 1,200 names were listed on the roll, in-
cluding more than 90 servicemen and women who never came home. In 1956, the roll was relocated to the present site of city hall and put into storage until it was found decades later and restored. It’s now kept in secure storage at the BurnabyVillage Museum. The story of the honour
roll for those who served in the SecondWorldWar is very different. Unlike its FirstWorldWar counterpart, it wasn’t until decades after the end of the war did an honour roll begin to take shape. After it was determined that a roll had never existed for veterans of the Second
WorldWar, city staff went to work scouring archives of Burnaby institutions, including churches and schools, in search of information on veterans. Databases created byVeterans Affairs also assisted staff in compiling an honour roll.To date, more than 1,800 names have been added to the roll, including
160 soldiers who died overseas. This Friday, take time to remember the men and women who served in the two world wars.You can find digital copies of both honour rolls at www.burnaby.ca/ remembers. – Source: City of Burnaby, Burnaby Remembers

Meet the neighbourhood butcher Located in a small shop on Hastings Street between Madison and Rosser avenues, you’ll bnd Rocky’s Meats. The original owner, Rocky, opened the Heights butcher shop back in 1961. In 1999, Rocky was looking to retire and reached out to fellow butcher John Bevilacqua, who had his own store down
the street. Rocky suggested John take over his meat shop. He agreed. This fall Rocky’s is celebrating 55 years in the Heights. The NOW recently spoke to John, a Burnaby resident himself, about his business and his plans for the future. – Cayley Dobie
Tell me a bit about the business. Well, of course, as you know it started in 1961 by Rocky himself. … Rocky had it from 1961 until ’99, when he retired. I had my own shop on the 4700 block of Hastings. I had my old shop on 4700 Hastings and we were friends, neighbours anyways, and he approached me and said he wanted to retire, and I wanted to move my location – so that’s what we did. He retired, and I moved into his location. I amalgamated mine with his and just kept his name though.
What kind of meat do you sell? All my meat is from local suppliers, except my beef. My beef is Alberta beef, reason being I bnd it a little bit better than the B.C. beef and it’s grass fed and then bnished off grain fed, and all my veal, lamb, poultry is all from the valley, from here. I get it from Johnson’s Packers – that’s my natural supplier. It’s all natural products. And all my poultry is from Maple Hills Farms and my turkey is from JD Farms out in Langley. So it’s all fresh, local stuff.
Why did you keep the name Rocky’s? Rocky’s has been around so long people knew him. Mine, it was fairly new, the name, so I just decided to go with his because he was well known anyways, and I kept his name, but I incorporated it – like Rocky 2. So he was Rocky 1 and I was Rocky 2.
What’s a typical day like? Usually I get up around 7 o’clock in the morning, get prepared and then I’m here just before nine depending on what kind of day I’m going to have. If it’s a busy day, of course I’m here early – sometimes I’m here bve or six in the morning. Usually I’m here around nine and I try and get out of here by 5:30 p.m.
Describe your shop. It’s an old-style butcher shop that we try and keep traditional. Basically it’s the old-fashioned butcher shop. I thrive on quality, service the old-fashioned way.

So you come in and start prepping the meat? Yup, yup. I start setting up the counter and every day I start from one end and work down and make sure every-

John Bevilacqua took over ownership of Rocky’s Meats back in 1999 when the original owner, Rocky, was looking to retire. The business is celebrating its 55th anniversary this fall. thing is done properly, is sanitized and clean and fresh. What are customers looking for when they come to your shop? For the knowledge. They come in if they’re looking for a certain type of recipe that they have or they’re not sure what type of meat to get for it, they come and ask, and I get it for them. We get together and decide what they need. What’s your most popular meat? Summertime our beef sales are very good, we sell a lot of steaks because they’re
well-aged steaks, and then our in-store made Italian sausages that we sell. I make them daily here, and we’re well known for our sausages. … They’re all natural, no bllers or binders, they’re gluten-free, even the casings are natural. Are you open seven days a week? No. I used to open six days a week, then when my granddaughter was born a year-anda-half ago I decided to close Mondays. So I am closed Sundays and Mondays. How did you end up in the butcher business?
Oh, I started when I was 14 years old as an after-schooltype job, and I stayed with it. I would go in after school and ride my bike there at First and Commercial – Grandview Meats – it’s no longer there, but that’s where I started. Then when I graduated from high school I decided to stay with it and I worked for Safeway for 17 years; I was the meat manager there, and I left in ’93 and I opened up my own shop, and then I took over Rocky’s Meats from ’99. So this is the only job I’ve known and had – my career. If you hadn’t become a
butcher, what would you have done? I would have been a police ofbcer. I like the police department. Do you have any pet peeves when it comes to the meat business? Not really. … But if you get something off the internet, it depends what site and if it’s a recipe and a certain cut of meat, it could be American, it could be Australian, it could be European, and they have different names, but when I look at it and read I can bgure out what it is.

Take time to remember
No plans on slowing down
By Elizabeth Ojo,
Continued from page 19 no, nothing.
Heights contributor November marks a time for our nation to remember. Poppies appear on coat lapels as a symbol of the sacribces made by courageous men and women so many years ago. Thousands are still making sacribces every day as members of the Canadian Armed Forces and deserve recognition, as well. My mother and father immigrated from Nigeria in the early ’90s. They were seeking opportunity and a better
life. Both of them started their lives over from scratch with little money and few connections in their new home. My parents endured many hardships, but they persevered, went to college, and gave their three children all that they never had access to. What makes Canada such an attractive country for immigrants is the freedom we enjoy here; and that would not be possible without our veterans. This month, take time to reaect on the contributions of Canadians past, who made it possible for our
nation to be truly strong and free. On Nov. 11, watch the Royal Canadian Legion Branch No. 148 in its procession down Hastings Street, from Willingdon to Alpha Avenues, then to Confederation Park. This will be followed by a Remembrance Day ceremony at 11 a.m. at Confederation Park cenotaph. Elizabeth Ojo was the summer 2016 marketing and events assistant at the Heights Merchants Association.

Dorigo Systems was founded back in 1988 by Mark Pillon, who continues to lead Dorigo as president. “On behalf of everyone at Dorigo Systems, I am very happy to accept this award,”
Pillon said in a press release. “It is truly an honour to be considered in a category alongside esteemed businesses such as Fortinet Technologies, Mott Electric, Pacific Blue Cross and Traction on Demand. Each of these companies, and indeed all of the nominees here tonight, inspire us in their commitment to community, innovation and success.” In all, there were nine categories up for grabs, including Burnaby community spirit, environmental sustainability, not-for-profit organization of the year, business person of the year, healthy workplace, business of the year (up to 50 employees), business innovation, business of the year and entrepreneurial spirit.
From left, Gloo Studios’ Nicolas Pierson and Anna K. Wright with Karen Leach, City of Burnaby, and Paul Lowey, owner and founder of Gloo Studios.

ASK A MORTGAGE BROKER
Q A
Will there be tougher mortgage rules by November?
YES! Home buyers should expect tougher mortgage rules to kick in as early as November 1 of this year. In an announcement released Friday by the nation’s financial regulator, HOWARD LOUIE banks and lenders that offer Manager, Mortgage Broker mortgage financing will face stricter regulations and this will translate into tougher lending rules for home buyers. This is done by either increasing mortgage rates or implementing tougher lending requirements for those applying for a mortgage. For the average Canadian home buyer then, this could mean that as early as November, it will either be: a) harder to get a mortgage, b) mortgage rates will start to rise (even slightly), c) or you won’t qualify for as large a mortgage as you would have prior to these new rules. Give me a call as I can help you through this.

t is said that there are only two certainties in life. For most of us, a discussion about death is difficult and uncomfortable. That is understandable. However, as we have a discussion with families, many people begin to realize that we are talking about protecting the ones we love, rather than death. We buy life, car and home insurance to protect loved ones from financial hardship. If we protect from things that might happen, does it make more sense to protect from something that will happen? PAF comprises of preplanning and prefunding. Preplanning is a process of making funeral wishes known and prefunding is paying for funeral arrangements. A good start to this process includes reflection as to what is important, recording the wishes and sharing them with loved ones so they have a blueprint of what you want. When someone passes away and no PAF exist, many questions are unanswered. This is especially true when most of those left behind are grieving and overwhelmed and when decisions have to be made quickly. Preplanning costs nothing and relieves emotional burden. Prefunding is the process of funding a funeral arrangement. All agreements are insurance backed and a special Dignity Goods and Services Agreement guarantee costs are frozen at today’s prices. This eliminates financial burden. Everyone should have a PAF because it relieves loved ones from emotional and financial burdens after a loss has occurred. PAFs are completed when a person is healthy, happy and are able to make their own decisions together with family. As informed consumers, we should be comfortable in exploring all the options available regarding cremation or burial and should not hesitate in getting the information from trusted sources. Our professional PAF Advisors come to you at your home or wherever it is convenient for you. Ask for a free Personal Planning Guide and Estate Planning Will kit.

What is a superstition? We occasionally participate in superstitious thinking without even realizing we’re doing it. Superstitions assign supernatural origins to things that we don’t understand.
Preplanning a funeral arrangement may make some people think that they are more likely to die, when our rational minds know that there is no correlation between preplanning and an untimely death. VICTOR LEE
PAF Manager
Assurant Life of Canada’s statistics show that the time the average Assurant policyholder preplans until their death is 13 years. Given that our average client purchase age is 70 and the average life expectancy of a Canadian who lives to age 70 is 83, the average hold makes perfect sense. The average hold for a 55 year old who preplans is over 25 years, because the average life expectancy at that age is 81. Call Victor Lee at 604 838 8888 to learn more.

Legal advice for seniors offered at Burnaby clinic TerezaVerenca HERE & NOW
editorial@burnabynow.com
Are you a senior and need legal advice? On the third Tuesday of every month until Dec. 19, there’s a seniors’ legal advice clinic at Brentwood Community Resource Centre. A lawyer with the B.C. Centre for Elder Advocacy and Support provides expertise on issues such as wills and estates; advance planning documents (power of attorney, representation agreements, advance directives); small claims court; complaints against professionals; and elder abuse and financial exploitation. The resource centre is at 2055 Rosser Ave.The clinic runs from 2 to 4 p.m. DONATIONS POUR IN Some 120 people came out to support Burnaby Family Life during a September fundraiser. Just over $1,000 was raised at Buy-Low Foods on Broadway.The service provider held a community barbecue that included a host of activities for the en-
tire family. Food and fun was by donation. “We had a great turnout for the event,” Katherine Pui, fund development coordinator, wrote in an email to the NOW. About 120 folks showed up. The funds go toward the organization’s counselling programs for children and women who experience abuse. SAVING THE SALMON A Burnaby school project was the recipient of a $7,000 grant from the Pacific Salmon Foundation recently. Taylor Park Elementary School received the money in support of their Stream of Dreams initiative, a whole school eco-education program that educates communities about their local watershed, rivers and streams. “The program encourages behavioural change to conserve and protect water, empowers youth to make a positive environmental impact, and creates a community art legacy,” according to a press release. The Pacific Salmon Foundation was established
in 1987 as an independent, non-governmental, charitable organization to help protect, conserve and rebuild pacific salmon populations in British Columbia and the Yukon. WORLD VISION ABROAD Burnaby resident Cindy Cook-Leamen travelled to Tanzania in September as part of a sponsorship ambassador program with World Vision. The two-week trip allowed her to see the work World Vision does on a dayto-day basis. She met bee keepers and visited farms and schools. It’s not the first time Cook-Leamen has gone across the globe with the organization; she’s also been to Peru to meet her sponsor child. This summer, she and her granddaughter sold sarongs to fundraise for child and maternal health initiatives. Do you have an item for Here & Now?

editorial@burnabynow.com
Self-care is essential to health care. How you live each day impacts your future health. The four foundations of self-care are emotional well-being, healthy eating, healthy physical activity and healthy relationships. Each day in my practice, I see patients whose problems are directly or indirectly related to difficult relationships. On the other hand, a supportive family, mutually positive relationships and a network of good friends support both physical and emotional wellbeing. Difficult relationships at work, conflicts at home and problems in school can be major sources of stress or the causes of depression or anxiety. It makes sense to take stock of your relationships, do what you can to get away from or get help with abusive situations and do what you can to improve relations with the people in your life. Though we recognize that our relationships produce the drama in our lives, it’s hard for most of us to know what we can do to make them better. It can start with reflection on the art of storytelling. We all love a good story. That’s one of the keys of a compelling TED talk. We can get wrapped up in a good novel and miss our bus stop or be so caught up with the Game of Thrones that we don’t realize that we’re consuming a whole bag of potato chips. It is with stories that we make sense of our lives. It
begins with the stories our parents tell us, the stories taught in school and the stories told through media. We sometimes mistake our stories for reality. Like my mom, I loved reading, and every week, we would each reach our borrowing limits of library books – 20 in those days. Books opened my mind to many views, seeing through others’ eyes. I was drawn to family practice because of my patients’ stories – the ups and downs of daily life, their challenges and triumphs and their joys and sorrows. My profession opened my heart to the experiences and feelings of others. When we seek to understand the back story of others, we open the door on compassion. Each of us, even siblings in the same family, may have uniquely different stories of childhood.Those early life experiences shaped our sense of self – who we are, how we fit in the world, how we felt loved or how we did not. If our sense of self is rigid and doesn’t allow for growth and change, we can get stuck in the same old story as our lives change anyway. If we see ourselves as unchanging personalities with well-worn habits and permanent character flaws, the future will be a self-fulfilling prophecy. If in your life story, you are the sole protagonist and everyone else is an antagonist in a world of danger and scarcity, life will remain a struggle and a futile fight to win.You may even compete with your loved ones and friends and fail to fully connect. What is the premise of
your life story? Did you come into this world alone, expecting to leave the same way? Or are you connected to every person in your life and through your life the entire world – accepting, sharing and giving forward love in its many forms – discovering and giving back to the world your unique gifts. Every human being has the same basic needs – for warmth, clothing, food, shelter and love, and we share the same range of emotions. But each of us tells a unique story.We relate best when we understand each others’ stories. Be mindful in your communications.We may talk to be understood, but we must listen first to understand. And we understand better with a phone call than by text. Face-to-face is better than phone. Words are best interpreted in the context of body language and facial expressions.These non-verbal cues deepen the meaning of words.We can see how others feel and how our words may affect them. RELATIONSHIP TALK On Thursday, Nov. 24 at 7 p.m., I’ll be speaking on the topic of healthy relationships at the Tommy Douglas library branch at 7311 Kingsway (at Walker Avenue).This free presentation is sponsored by the Burnaby Division of Family Practice and the Burnaby Public Library.

STM to put momentum to test against Irish
Four straight wins gives Knights confidence as they open the playoffs against former top-rankedVanCollege Dan Olson
dolson@burnabynow.com
Spring cleaning has nothing on the autumn scrubbing that occurs when the B.C. high school football season turns to the playoffs. Purging data and known results in an effort to recondition their ambitions, coaches brush up on their favourite clichés and anecdotes in hopes of getting the right mix of preparedness and adrenalin for the post-season experience.
The St.Thomas More Knights will look to bottle that four-game win streak and momentum into the new season, facing long-time arch-nemesis Vancouver College Fighting Irish on Friday, 7:30 p.m. at Burnaby Lake West. To do so, Knights coach Bernie Kully said the work of the past three months will give them a chance to advance in this incredibly balanced 2016 football season. “I don’t think there’s any downside in having won (four straight
games) but you just take things in perspective,” said Kully. “You have to live in the moment and kind of put all these other things behind you, because the winner gets going and the loser goes home.” More’s final win of the regular season, 48-0 over Mission, was another in a string of convincing victories that earned them home field advantage in the playoff opener. The Knights benefited from the return of Tyler Eckert, who demonstrated fine form in his sec-
ond week back in the lineup.The Grade 11 all-star ran for 200 yards on 10 carries, scoring three times. Quarterback Kolby Buljevic completed six of 12 pass attempts for 170 yards, hitting Devon Hayek for a pair of touchdown passes and Mateo Montagliani a single. Nate Nacario rounded out the offence with a rushing major. Getting Eckert back after a month off to injury has been a big boost, although the team had started to turn its record around –
finishing at 4-3 and fourth overall in the Eastern Conference – just prior to his return. “At this time of year no one’s 100 per cent healthy but we are definitely healthier than five weeks ago,” said Kully. “I think we match-up well with (VanCollege), we’ve improved a lot since we played them (in Week 2, a 2014 loss) but so have they.” The winner advances to face Notre Dame, which finished first in the Western Conference.
Clan tabbed as Div. 2 west team to beat SFU eager to show its ready at NCAA tourney With a title under its belt, the Simon Fraser University men’s soccer team is setting its sights high as the No. 1 seed in the West Region in the NCAA Div. 2 men’s soccer championships. Simon Fraser (first overall, 9-1-2, in the Great Northwest Athletic Conference) sits atop the West Region bracket with their opening match 1 p.m. Saturday at Seattle Pacific’s Interbay Stadium against the winner of No. 4 Sonoma State and No. 5 Cal Poly Pomona. Being ranked as high as No. 2 nationally during the season, the Clan return to the postseason for the fourth time in five years of playoff eligibility. “We played well all season long and we deserved the No. 1 seed,” said head coach Clint Schneider. “We accomplished our goals of starting the season strong and winning the GNAC championship and now it’s on to the next one – winning the national championship.” Simon Fraser, who had a 15-game unbeaten streak during the season, will get a first-round bye. Although the GNAC title earned them the right to host, the NCAA requires all playoff matches be played in the U.S. SFU is the only Canadian school in the NCAA. This season, midfielder Adam Jones led the team in scoring with 10 goals and nine assists while midfielder Mamadi Camara counted nine goals and four assists. Senior goalkeeper Brandon Watson set the GNAC record with 30 career shutouts . “We have played Sonoma State and Cal Poly in the past two years and we are familiar with them,” said Schneider. “We are excited to play them in the northwest in an environment we are comfortable in, where it will be cold and wet.” On the strength a Jones hat trick, SFU ended the regular season with a 4-2 triumph over Seattle Pacific last week. “We think we can beat anyone on any given day, that’s how confident our group is,” added Schneider. “Our philosophy is to always schedule the best teams.We are ready.” Sonoma State, seeded fourth, and No. 5 Cal Poly Pomona will play on Thursday at 1 p.m. in Seattle.

The Burnaby-New West league playoffs wrap up and champions are crowned this week at the various levels, with the league’s senior girls final to be played tomorrow (Thursday, 7 p.m.) at Moscrop. The semifinals were played Tuesday (past the NOW’s deadline), which had the Burnaby North Vikings taking on the regular season champion Moscrop Panthers, while the Burnaby Mountain Lions battling the Burnaby Central Wildcats. Both Moscrop and Central finished with identical 5-1 records, but the Panthers prevailed in head-tohead action. In senior boys playoffs, a cham-
pion was crowned Tuesday (past the NOW’s deadline) between Moscrop and Burnaby North. The two teams advanced in their semifinals, with Moscrop blanking New Westminster 3-0, while Burnaby North needed the limit of sets to edge Burnaby South 3-2. Moscrop, Burnaby North and Burnaby South finished the regular season with identical 4-1 records. In junior boys, Moscrop captured the title and avenged its only loss of the season by topping Burnaby North Monday. The junior girls final is slated for Thursday, 4 p.m. at Moscrop.The final four in contention are Burnaby Central, North, South and Moscrop.

Rookie delivers in Steelers win Sinclair on FIFA’s Siebenga supplies all the offence in Grandview’s two-game weekend
Dan Olson
dolson@burnabynow.com
It was just a little more than seven minutes, but what a seven-minute run for the Grandview Steelers’ Jacob Siebenga it was. The 16-year-old Pacific junior B Hockey League rookie counted all three of his team’s goals in a 3-1 road victory Friday over the Ridge Meadows Flames. Unfortunately, it was the only offence for the club in a two-game weekend, which saw them fall 2-0 to Aldergrove on Sunday. Still, those three goals in a winning
effort were something that Vancouver Canucks’ coach Willie Desjardins would gladly take right now. Grandview battled the Flames through more than 50 minutes of scoreless hockey, before the 6-foot-1 forward from Surrey put the Steelers in the lead with a powerplay marker at 12:51 of the third. Just 33 seconds later, Siebenga extended the advantage to 2-0, then capped the night with an empty-net goal in the final minute. Five players picked up assists, while netminder Colin Forbes was near-perfect in turning aside 32 shots. Two days later, the Steelers again went through a goal drought but this
time were unable to solve the puzzle, as Kodiaks’ goalie Caleb Ziemann stopped all 25 shots for the shutout. Eric Callegari did all the damage, giving Aldergrove the lead 21 seconds into the third, then hitting the empty net. In the loss, Matteo Paler-Chow did well to keep his team in the game, kicking out 41 shots. The Steelers, who still sit atop the Tom Shaw Conference with a 11-30-4 record, visit North Vancouver on Saturday, and host Abbotsford on Sunday, 4 p.m. at the Burnaby Winter Club.
Clan cart off Clock Open grappling titles
In a powerful early season display, the Simon Fraser University women’s wrestling team grabbed six of 10 weight divisions at the Mike Clock Open in Oregon. Chiming in for first-place honours were the Clan’s Jennifer Anderson, Nicole Depa, Abby Lloyd, Ciara McCrae, Payten Smith and Mallory Velte. Anderson topped the
123-lb class, beating Warner Pacific’s Delilah Houck by a 12-1 technical fall. Depa, an All-American last year, took the 130-lb weight class on a series of pins, stopping Southern Oregon’s Kalvn Schwartz in the final. In her first varsity tourney, McCrae chalked up five decisions in the 109-lb division and took the title
by pinning Grays Harbor Community College’s Kateri Rowell in 17 seconds. Lloyd bested SFU sophomore Aliocha Perriard-Abdoh by a technical fall in the final to build upon her unbeaten start to the season. Smith went 4-0 in the 191-lb class, posting three wins by fall including the final over Grays Harbor’s Dellisha Hodges. In
the 135-lb category,Velte capped a 4-0 run with a win over Grays Harbor’s Amanda Gilliam. On the men’s side, Morgan Smith stepped off the mats with a title. Smith won in the 197-lb division, dominating Clackmas Community College’s Haszell West 12-3.
award shortlist
The leader of Canadian soccer is now up for a major international award. Burnaby’s Christine Sinclair, who has captained the national women’s team to World Cup and Olympic medals, was one of 10 players shortlisted for FIFA’s women’s player of the year. For the 33-year-old forward, it is the eighth time she has been nominated for the FIFA honour, most recently in 2013. In 2012 she placed fifth in the voting. Following Canada’s bronze-medal win at Rio this summer, CONCACAF and Canadian Soccer Association president Victor Montagliani, who also hails from Burnaby, spoke glowingly of Sinclair’s impact in the sport in Canada. “She’s just an unbelievable person and we’re so privileged to have her as part of our Canadian soccer family,” Montagliani said. “To be quite honest, we’re so privileged to have her as a Canadian. She’s just one of those genera-

tional type of personalities. I think we should all be proud of her.” Sinclair has also been named Canadian Women’s Player of theYear 12 times, including the last 11 years. With 165 international goals, Sinclair sits second among all-time scorers. The winner will be chosen through a voting process composed of 50 per cent of national team captains and head coaches.The other 50 per cent will tally the votes of an online public ballot and international media.

Mom was involved with the ACW group at St. Mary’s Anglican. She played piano, loved to sing and was involved with various choirs. She enjoyed doing needlepoint, cross stitch and handicrafts, winning many prizes and much recognition for her work at the PNE over the years. Later on she found it harder to continue with this past time, as the fine delicate work became more difficult. Myrna was a gentle quiet home body, appreciating music and visits from her sons and their families as they grew.

MANSON, Myrna Joyce (nee Sweet) Born in New Westminster, Myrna was a younger sister to Barbara (and soon to be older sister to Jim). She attended school in New Westminster, graduating and then going on to secretarial training. She worked at this in the 50’s and 60’s, when she married her husband Graham Manson, a builder from nearby Coquitlam. Together they had 3 sons; Brad in ‘58, Kevin in ‘62 and Donald in ‘64.
