BURNABY REAL ESTATE

Demand for condos, townhouses up Report:Townhouse sales in Burnaby jumped 56 per cent between April and May of this year

By Tereza Verenca

tverenca@burnabynow.com

It’s a good time to own an apartment or townhouse – that is, if you’re looking to sell.

Metro Vancouver’s real estate market was driven by a high demand for condo-

miniums and townhomes last month – and Burnaby was no exception, according to a report released by the Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver (REBGV).

The data shows there were 333 apartment listings in Burnaby in May, up from April’s 271.There were 141

Order Take-Out.

townhomes listed, compared to April’s 118, and 257 detached homes on the market, an increase from 187 the previous month.

Townhomes saw the highest number of sales in May, with a 56 per cent increase over the previous month, followed by apartments,

with a 16 per cent increase.

Detached home sales saw an 11.5 per cent spike.

The real estate board also tracks what’s known as a sales-to-active listings ratio, the rate at which properties are selling.

“Analysts say anywhere where a sales-to-active list-

ings ratio surpasses 20 per cent, it’s then a sellers’ market,” says Jill Oudil, REBGV’s president. “Our salesto-active listings ratio right now for condominiums in Burnaby is 95.5 per cent, which is extraordinarily high. ...Townhomes is very high as well; it’s 84.8 per

cent, and detached is 25.5 per cent, so you can see the drastic difference there.”

A combination of factors have led to condos and townhomes fuelling the market, adds Oudil.

Newsnow TAKING CASE TO HUMAN RIGHTS

Tenant fights eviction for smudging Lawyers:‘From a legal perspective smudging’s a spiritual practice...’

By Tereza Verenca

tverenca@burnabynow.com

A Burnaby woman has filed a complaint with the B.C. Human Rights Tribunal alleging her landlord is denying her the right to smudge.

Crystal Smith of the Tsimshian Haisla First Nation has smudged – the indigenous practice of burning herbs like sage for prayer or cleansing – for about 15 years.

“It’s been on and off because I really had to find my way,” says the mother of two and UBC master’s student.

Smith’s maternal grandparents died before she was born, and as she puts it, she “didn’t grow up in culture.”

“This is something I had to do on my own. Now that I have children, it’s very important to me to pass on these cultures and these spiritual practices so they can grow up and be proud of who they are.”

At the last home she rented, Smith says she had a unit on the top floor and the landlord had no issues with her smudging.

“They understood the spiritual practice, that it was meant to support me, in my growth and in my culture,” she tells the NOW, noting she received her entire damage deposit back when she left.

Smith moved into a duplex, an address she did not want to disclose for privacy reasons, on Jan. 1, 2017, and signed a oneyear lease. But her landlord, Parminder Mohan, was not as understanding, she says.

Since January, Smith has been given three eviction notices, including one to end tenancy early and another one for renovation purposes.

“It’s actually really gross.

He’s actually trying to say I’m smoking marijuana and that I’m covering it up with the sage,” she says. “I don’t smoke at all.

I’m not doing any damage to the place. It produces white smoke, which does no damage to surrounding walls. The smell does dissipate after maybe a couple days.”

Smith adds Mohan promised her she could move from the basement to the upstairs unit on April 1.

PASSING IT ON: Crystal

Smith has been smudging for about 15 years, an indigenious practice that involves the burning of herbs for prayer or cleansing. She wants to pass on the tradition to her two children, she says, so they can be proud of who they are. In the meantime, Smith’s landlord has served her three eviction notices since January because of the smudging.

She has decided to take her case to the B.C. Human Rights Tribunal.

“He won’t let me move upstairs unless I sign an agreement saying I won’t smudge,” she says.

Smith took her eviction notices to the Residential Tenancy

This is something I had to do on my own. Now that I have children, it’s very important to me to pass on these ... practices ...

Branch for dispute resolution.

In the first meeting, the arbitrator found there was “insufficient evidence to conclude that the tenant has unreasonably disturbed or adversely affected the other tenants.”

The arbitrator dismissed Mohan’s application for an early end to tenancy.

In the meantime, Smith was referred to the Public Interest Advocacy Centre for free legal counsel.

After hearing her case, lawyers Kate Feeney and Erin Pritchard advised Smith to submit a complaint to the B.C. Human Rights Tribunal.

“From a legal perspective, smudging’s a spiritual practice, so it’s protected under the Human Rights Code. ... The landlord must justify his conduct,” says Feeney.

As far as Feeney knows, Smith’s case is the first of its kind to come before the tribunal.

“There’s been some cases that touch on similar issues in the prison context, like the right for prisoners to smudge, but not in the residential tenancy context,” she says.

When reached for comment,

Mohan didn’t shy away from saying why he wants Smith out.

“What she does is she smokes up the whole place. We agreed there was no smoking or anything like that in the unit,” he

She doesn’t care. She says, ‘It’s my right,’ but she doesn’t care about anybody else.

tells the NOW, reiterating that he thinks Smith is smoking weed.

The first time Mohan realized Smith was smudging, he says he had to “stagger out” of the house.

“I was absolutely going to go unconscious. That’s how much smoke there was. ... All of our air circulates and that’s how un-

accommodating she’s trying to be. She doesn’t care. She says, ‘It’s my right,’ but she doesn’t care about anybody else,” says Mohan.

The property owner, who owns both sides of the duplex but lives with his parents down the road, notes he’s a “very, very good, fair landlord,” and has been very accommodating to Smith. He says he put a dishwasher in her two-bedroom suite and reduced her rent from $1,350 to $1,200.

“I thought I was helping her. ... I try to do my best, but when tenants try to take control and be vindictive like this, it’s unacceptable,” says Mohan, adding he’ll likely file a fourth eviction notice. “I have cultural and religious practices as well, and they require a lot of incense and burning things, but we have fans; we make sure that our practices don’t disturb other people.”

Curious about what it takes to be a puppy raiser for the Pacific Assistance Dogs Society (PADS)?

The charity, which raises and trains assistance dogs to help people with mobility or hearing challenges, is hosting an open house on Saturday, June 10 at its Burnaby location.

“I think it’s such a confusing thing for some people when it comes to what exactly is puppy raising and what does that entail and how can I be involved, but what is it going to take of me,” says Kaila Butler, PADS’ communication coordinator.

“By having our trainers, our staff, volunteers, and even our clients on site, it gives people that opportunity to talk it out with us and see, OK, what is this commitment.”

PADS hands out their puppies around eight weeks old, notes Butler, and from there they are with the pup-

py raiser for 18 months.

“They take that dog to work, to the mall, to the grocery store – pretty much anywhere they’d go in their day-to-day lives,” she says.

“Their role is primarily to get the dog socialized, comfortable in the public, used to different sounds and sites, feelings and people.”

Puppy raisers must also attend a weekly class that

teaches the dog basic training, including sit and stay.

PADS has around 15 puppies that will need homes in the next couple of weeks, according to Butler, and more puppies will be coming in the fall.

there will be service dog and accredited facility dog demonstrations. Service dog and hearing dog demonstrations will take place at 12:45 p.m., followed by a puppy kindergarten class demo at 2:15 p.m. and an intermediate puppy class demo at 3 p.m.

Opinion now OUR VIEW

Time to look at ourselves in the mirror

Managing to find yet another new low, President Donald Trump pulled the United States out of the 195-country Paris Agreement on greenhouse gas emissions last week.

The U.S. now sits in good company with Syria and Nicaragua in rejecting the shared goal of mitigating climate change.

But easy as it is now to

thumb our noses at the bass-ackwards behaviour of the U.S., we should dispense with our sense of superiority and have a look in the mirror.

Canada’s carbon emissions are about double per capita that of a typical European nation (even those cold countries).

This has much to do with the decisions we make in our homes, vehi-

cles and industry.

It was also Bike to Work Week last week, yet it seemed to be one of the worst weeks in recent memory for traffic jams all over the Lower Mainland.

And despite plenty of asking, it’s still not been explained to our satisfaction how Canada can do its part to reduce carbon output while expanding the tar sands and building

pipelines.

And then there’s the new NDP and Green brotherhood right here in British Columbia.

The B.C. NDP promised to remove tolls from Lower Mainland bridges.

This will certainly not encourage carpooling or other forms of commuting in the Lower Mainland.

But those are the kinds of Faustian bargains that

politicians make, thinking that if they just get elected, they can then do some good works. But, let’s face it, most of us are no better.

We continue to consume new electronics and goods of all sorts with little consideration of what that is doing to our planet.

In time – perhaps after some catastrophic storms or droughts – the Unit-

ed States’ leaders will see the error of their ways and rejoin the global effort to tackle the number 1 threat to our long-term security.

In the meantime, the rest of us are going to have to pick up the slack, because the atmosphere doesn’t care which country the carbon is coming from.

MY VIEW KEITH BALDREY

Horgan appears poised for power I was kidding around with NDP leader John Horgan last week, pretending to have trouble saying the words “Premier Horgan” over and over again. He laughed and said he wasn’t used to hearing the title either.

But, unless something extraordinary happens over the next couple of weeks (such as an NDP MLA becoming seriously ill or hurt) we’re all going to have to get used to saying and hearing “Premier Horgan” when we talk about who’s running the B.C. government.

The idea of Horgan becoming premier seemed a bit remote just a few months ago. Not a longshot by any means, since B.C. elections are almost always close results, but the resiliency of the free enterprise coalition party has always proven to be impressive at election times.

Technically, Horgan lost the election because his party won fewer seats than the B.C. Liberals. But through the intricacies of our parliamentary system, Horgan appears ready to turn a loss into a political victory.

He helped negotiate an agreement between his party and the B.C. Green Party, to win their support during confidence votes without really offering anything to the Greens that wasn’t already in the NDP election platform.

Perhaps because they realized Green party leader AndrewWeaver could not deliver his three-member caucus to the B.C. Liberal fold, Horgan and his team simply had to sit tight make

the Greens come to them if they wanted any proximity to power.

It was an impressive performance, and it follows a string of them.

I’ve noticed some subtle shifts in Horgan’s demeanour since the election campaign began.

In the weeks and months leading up to it, Horgan at times seemed frustrated with the shackles that come with being in Opposition.

He was occasionally a bit chippy and defensive with the media, which he seemed to regard with suspicion.

A fairly exuberant and confident figure, Horgan would sometimes go on the defensive when challenged.

But Horgan’s strong performance in the election campaign helped his party pick up enough seats to put it into minority government territory. He stayed on message throughout the campaign, and rarely had a misstep (that radio debate “close encounter” with B.C. Liberal leader Christy Clark may have been the lone exception).

Since the uncertainty of election night, Horgan has maintained his cool and has presented a calm, authoritative and credible demeanour.

If he can maintain it through the inevitable controversies that befall all government regardless of party stripe, he may be able to hold this somewhat shaky alliance with the B.C. Greens together longer than many people seem to think.

Blast sends five to hospital Burnaby resident Chris Cassock said her little dog jumped three feet in the air at the sound of an explosion in her Maitland Street neighbourhood that sent five people to hospital with serious burns.The blast, which police believed was caused by an illegal drug lab, drove a two-foot section of four-inch metal pipe through a wall in the devastated house and into the wall of a neighbouring house, where it came to rest in a bathroom cabinet, according to police. No one in that house was injured.

Opinionnow There’s only one real proportional system Dear Editor: Keith Baldrey, in his column May 24 (How Green will B.C. become?), like so many reporters when talking about the probable changes to the electoral system, expresses the potential change as some kind of proportional representation, of which he says are many.

That is not true. There is only one proportional representation where everybody, as we have always done, votes for the party, but the count for each party is taken provincewide so that 18 per cent of the vote gets 18 per cent of the seats, achieving a fair and sensible distribution of seats.

No other system does that. Commonly mentioned, falsely, as fair voting is STV or preference of voting for first, second, third, as if anyone in their right mind could do that or mixed member and a number of other suggestions all touted as proportional representation, which they are not.

Pure proportional representation has been used with great success in all of Scandinavia for many years.

Terry Smith, by email

Trudeau has let us down Dear Editor: An open letter to MP Terry Beech: You’re the MP for our area, so I thought I would let you know of my displeasure with your party on several fronts.

Kinder Morgan pipeline in our backyard – why are we caving in to foreign interests (China’s demand for this so they can have more cheap oil) to put our own environment at risk for their financial gain? It is short-term thinking, like usual for Canada. Exploit resources until they’re gone, then what? This needs a rethink. Let your boss know. We could be a clean-energy leader; instead we’re stuck in the past.

Ditching electoral reform – another mistake.

Trudeau could have gone down in history as the guy who brought the Canadian electoral system into the 21st century instead of staying stuck in the 19th. Instead, he’s going to go down in history as a flash in the pan, all style and no substance.

A lot of people voted for you guys believing in change, and, instead, all we’ve gotten is a cuter Harper.

That’s not fair, you say? Well, when you’re ramming through omnibus bills – you know, those ones where you put the sneaky stuff together hidden in a bunch of other things and then slap some lipstick on it so hopefully no one will notice – you’re acting like Harper did. And if memory serves, you guys did an awful lot of complaining about it when he did it.

I’m not a Harper supporter by any stretch, but I’m having a hard time seeing the difference between Harper and Trudeau these days.

Anyway, it would be great to see you standing up to Trudeau and telling him this isn’t going to fly, but I guess you probably can’t. Too bad.

Enjoy Ottawa while it lasts.

Townhouses are a hot commodity in Burnaby Continued from page 1 jump to where they might do a detached, due to affordability, may stick to a larger townhome. And of course, you have your empty nesters leaving detached homes and going back into the condominium market.

There’s also the overall we live in a fabulous place and that’s not changing soon,” she explains.

While prices continued to climb in May, the total number of transactions actually slowed down when looking at the numbers over a three-month period.

Single detached home sales in Burnaby saw a 31 per cent decline when comparing data from March to May 2016, to data from March to May 2017.The same occurred for townhomes (11 per cent) and apartments (15 per cent).

Meanwhile, the median selling price for a detached home in Burnaby in May was $1.67 million, com-

pared to $1.6 million the month before, and $1.7 million the same time last year.

The median selling price for townhomes was $776,000 (it was $825,000 the previous month) and $579,000 for apartments (it was $510,000 in April).

Across Metro Vancouver, home buyer activity returned to near-record levels, according to the report.

Last month’s sales were 23.7 per cent above the 10year May sales average and is the third-highest selling May on record.

The benchmark price for all residential properties in Metro Vancouver is currently $967,500, an 8.8 per cent increase over May 2016 and a 2.8 per cent increase compared to April 2017.

Art exhibit explores the power of memory A new art exhibition at Deer Lake Gallery explores the world of memory – both real and perceived.

Fragments, featuring the works of Mila Kostic and Shari Pratt, opens June 8 and runs until July 1. An opening reception is set for Thursday, June 8 at 7 p.m.

“Fragments is the journey of two visual artists through their real and perceived memories, which is expressed in mixed-media compositions in order to bring these fragments into the being,” explains a press release.

Kostic is a Canadian visual artist and curator whose roots are in the formerYugoslavia.The release notes that Kostic has found mixed media to be the language with which she can address the evils she has witnessed in the world.

“Her experiences refused to be silenced; her pieces are a vehicle with which she can communicate as nothing else could,” the release explains.

Kostic mixes media freely, building from a base of oil or acrylic and working on several canvases at once.

Pratt is an award-winning Canadian-born artist who works mainly in painting but often includes found photography and artifacts in her installations. Memories play an important role in her work.

“Her current work is a compilation of how our own past fragments of reality can be erased and replaced, bearing only the traces of the earlier recollection,” the release says. “This formulation of our past is what identifies us; it has many levels of meaning, development and history. Her work has the hazy aspect of memories laid carefully in our past.”

Deer Lake Gallery is at 6584 Deer Lake Ave. and is open Tuesday to Saturday, noon to 4 p.m. Admission and parking are free. See www.burnabyartscouncil. org or call 604-298-7322 for more information.

Major University hearing study seeks participants.

The SMART Lab under the direction of Frank Russo, Professor of Psychology at Ryerson University, in partnership with Connect Hearing, seeks participants for a hearing study investigating the factors that can influence better hearing. All participants will have a hearing test provided

by Connect Hearing at no charge*. Qualifying participants may also receive a demo of the latest hearing technology. The data collected from this study will be used to further our understanding of hearing loss and potentially improve hearing healthcare across Canada.

Why Research Hearing Loss?

Deep inside our ears are several thousand microscopic “hair cells.” These cells are arranged in rows and each cell is responsible for hearing a specific pitch, similar to the keys on a piano. As we age, some of these cells become damaged… from loud noises, chronic conditions, or the

treatment right away. In fact, the average person with hearing loss will wait ten years before seeking help.2 This is because at the beginning stages of hearing loss people often find they can “get by” without help, however as the problem worsens this becomes increasingly harder to do. By studying those people having difficulty in noise or with television, we hope to identify key factors impacting these difficulties and further understand their influence on the treatment process.

process of aging itself. Just like a piano with damaged keys, an ear with damaged hair cells will make things sound muffled and distorted. For some people this loss of clarity is only a problem at noisy restaurants or in the car, but for others it makes listening a struggle throughout the entire day.

It is estimated that 46% of people aged 45 to 87 have some degree of hearing loss,1 but most do not seek

Overcome anxiety and rewrite your life story DavidicusWong HEALTHWISE

editorial@burnabynow.com

I consider myself an expert in anxiety – from professional and personal experience.

Each day in my family practice, I counsel patients suffering from the stress of personal conflicts, loss and illness. I coach them on the essential skills of emotional wellness: mindfulness, adaptive thinking, positive action and visualization.

I treat individuals suffering from generalized anxiety, phobias, panic attacks and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Some require prescription medications, but all benefit from the empowering practices of mindfulness, cognitive behavioural therapy and positive visualization.

Those who have suffered from anxiety for years find it hard to believe that they can feel any other way – that

they are capable of change.

Those who practise their new skills on a daily basis – as regular as any prescription medication – through the power of neuroplasticity will transform their own minds.

Our life experiences and how we make sense of them – our personal life stories – form the foundation of our

core beliefs: what we believe to be true about our selves, others and our relationships with them.

Our core beliefs shape the running monologue of our self-talk.That self-talk at best is compassionate, kind and empowering.Too often,

FITNESS CIRCUIT

our self-talk is judging of others and ourselves; makes us feel separate, different, better or worse than others; emphasizes the negative and minimizes the positive.

And that self-talk – the content of our ruminations – takes us away from the real experience of life in the present moment, the only place we can enjoy happiness.

I grew up in the days when playgrounds were not so safe; our kids have it softer today. In Mount Pleasant’s Douglas Park, the monkey bars were made of slippery curved steel and embedded in a floor of concrete.

As a preschooler, I fell from the top of those monkey bars and knocked out my front teeth. For years, I waited for my big kid teeth to grow in. Self-conscious, I didn’t smile.

I developed social anxiety. I felt physically uneasy around anyone outside my Continued on page 22

Knights snap up BC crown

St.Thomas More gets to second straight final, with this one ending on a happier note Dan Olson

dolson@burnabynow.com

There have been few bumps during a pretty stellar season, but memories of last year’s traumatic loss in a B.C. final provided enough motivation.

The St.Thomas More Knights were not about to let the same thing happen again.

The senior girls soccer team advanced to its second-straight B.C. AA championship final, with this one ending in a 1-0 victory over Okanagan Mission.

It couldn’t have been a sweeter win, co-coach Doug Corbett said.

“It was a good game for us; we dominated and hit two shots off the crossbar,” he remarked of the final, played in Nelson. “(Okanagan Mission) did apply some pressure in the second half but we had the edge in play.We had multiple chances to build on our lead.”

The lone goal came midway through the first half when striker Kyra Armenta, one of the squad’s seven Grade 10s, buried her opportunity.

A year ago, STM made the same march, only to lose 1-0 in a shootout to L.V. Rogers.

This time around, the Knights were confident in their abilities and teammates, and when the eventual rematch occurred, in the semifinal, they responded.

The Burnaby school edged the host squad 1-0 and moved on to the final, showing that last year’s result was history, not historic.

“It was motivation when we played them (this time),” remarked Corbett, who worked the sidelines along with Carlo Zavarise. “It was great to meet them again in a big game, to get that chance to beat them.”

St.Thomas More had posted a perfect 3-0 record in the round robin, beating Little Flower Academy 2-1, South Kamloops 1-0 and Francis Kelsey 2-0. Five different players supplied the goals, while netminder Lauren Cadiente, another Grade 10, racked up the shutouts.

Picking up the team’s spot on the Commissioners 11 all-star team was team MVP Caileen Corbett, one of eight seniors on the squad.

The Knights rolled through the independent league undefeated, having suffered their lone losses in the season-opening tourney at UBC. “The girls just came together,” said Corbett.

“We train a lot, unlike most high school teams, because our players come from all over the place.

“I knew we had a good chance coming into the season, but it all had to come together. It did.”

Vikings rise to provincial challenge Burnaby North displays lots of heart in matching up against top BC rivals Actors often say “The play’s the thing.”

It goes for athletes, too.

The Burnaby North Vikings demonstrated much moxie as hosts of the B.C. AAA senior girls soccer championships last week, while demonstrating that they deserved to be there on their own merits.

Although they finished the 16-team tourney in 15th spot, the Vikings played well and finished with a 1-2-2 record – just one goal away in the round robin from advancing into the top eight.

After battling their first two opponents – R.A. McMath and Clayton Heights – to identical 1-1 draws, Burnaby North’s fate rested in a match-

up against Coquitlam’s Centennial.

The Centaurs showed why they were a top-ranked squad, counting out five goals to capture the pool and momentum heading into the championship round.

Burnaby North fell 1-0 to Lord Byng, and ended the tourney by topping North Peace 2-1 in penalty kicks.

“I think (the players) had a great time,” said coach Deborah Peters. “The competition was really good, and to go through (the round robin) losing just once shows we were in it.”

While goals were at a premium, the team had a couple Continued on page 24

Burnaby’s second period surge gets them past T-men

With two wins under their belt, the Lakers gain valuable momentum to start 2017WLA season Dan Olson

dolson@burnabynow.com

Protecting a lead appears to be one of the strengths of the Burnaby Lakers.

It’s just a matter of getting it that has made it a more thrilling ride so far.

The Western Lacrosse Association’s club improved to 2-1 on the year with a 9-8 victory over the

Nanaimo Timbermen last Friday in the club’s home opener.

Powerplay goals by Eli McLaughlin and Cam Milligan erased a 6-5 deficit and were followed by two more to start the third period, as Burnaby continued to gather momentum and build chemistry to start the 2017 season.

All this while without core offensive players Robert Church and

Josh Byrne, too.

While the Lakers began the game with two quick goals from Shaun Dhaliwal and Jason Jones just 2:16 into the contest, Nanaimo led 4-3 at the break, then went up 5-3 before Burnaby pushed back.

Scott Jones netted back-to-back markers to give the Lakers a brief edge, but once again the T-men replied and were ahead 6-5 before

the final rally.

McLaughlin and Milligan scored 1:31 apart before the second period ended, and Milligan and Jones rounded out their hat tricks with goals to begin the third frame.

Although Nanaimo counted two of their own in the period, they were unable to bury the equalizer behind Laker netminder Zak Boychuk.

The former junior T-men goalie kicked out 37 shots to post the win, while Nanaimo’s Peter Dubenski turned aside 38 shots in the loss.

Burnaby’s next opponent is the New West Salmonbellies, who they play on Thursday, 7:30 p.m. at Queen’s Park Arena.

On Friday, the Lakers host Maple Ridge, 7:45 p.m. at Bill Copeland Sports Complex.

Crisologo on course SFU golfer makes impressive pro event debut

Whether it’s under the Simon Fraser University team banner or as an individual, Chris Crisologo remains a hot commodity on the golf course.

The amateur entered his first pro event last week and proceeded to play seven-under-par golf at the Freedom 55 Financial Open at Vancouver’s Point Grey Golf and Country Club.

Crisologo, 21, finished the four-round tourney with a two-under 70 on Sunday, tied for 20th place and for low Canadian.

“I think the positive is just being able to come out and play well,” Crisologo told Golf B.C.’s Brad Zeimer. “I was able to compete with these guys, see what they do and compare myself to them.”

He credited his caddie – Alisha Lau, herself an up-and-coming golfer who will launch her college career at the University of Colorado in the fall – for helping stay on his game.

Although he wasn’t in the same zone as Tampa Bay-native Lee McCoy, who won the event by eight strokes, Crisologo put up strong numbers to build upon. He was at a U.S. Open qualifier in Tacoma on Monday, then flew to Mexico yesterday to represent B.C. at the Mexican Amateur championships.

All that, and he is still preparing for his senior season at SFU. “I wanted to finish my four years.

SFU gave me an awesome opportunity to play NCAA Division II so I want to honour (late) coach (John) Buchan-

Vikings wrap up on winning note

Continued from page 11 of golden opportunities, especially against Clayton Heights, that could have pulled a victory and a berth to the championship round.

“We had our chances in that one. It was a squandered opportunity that we should have won,” she said.

Still, the week gave the squad a chance to measure their skills against some of the best, with positive results.

The Vikings found themselves trailing

1-0 early against North Peace, but rallied to force penalty kicks.The Burnaby North keeper stopped every opposition shot in the showdown, while the hosts buried all three chances.

Ashley Bristow was selected to the Commissioner’s 11 all-star team.

“The best part was just hanging out with the girls,” said the coach. “They are just fantastic people – there’s no negativity, they are always there to pick each other up.”

Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a Sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes.
