Union and company cut a deal

It’s a labour of love By Cornelia Naylor

Contentious labour dispute ends in a sixyear-deal with raises and benefit guarantees

The labour dispute between Pacific Blue Cross and CUPE 1816 came to an end Sunday night after both sides ratified a six-year, collective agreement with the help of mediator Vince Ready. “I’m really happy,” union president Beth Miller told the NOW on Monday morning. “It was a real struggle, but I think it helped with the pressure we were putting on them.” CUPE 1816 represents more than 600 employees who work for the Burnaby-based insurance provider. The union has been without a contract since last year.The labour dispute began in early July when both sides were at an impasse on retiree benefits and wages. Miller said when it comes to wages, the new agreement will see a 1.5 per cent increase from August 2016 to July 31, 2017 (retroactive), a 1.75 per cent increase in year two, and a two per cent increase each of the following four years. The two parties also agreed to set up a joint benefits trust, where Pacific Blue Cross will contribute 75 per cent of the premium and 25 per cent will be paid by the retirees. “The trust will, at a minimum, maintain current benefit levels as set out in the 2014-2016 collective agreement,” Miller said, adding Pacific Blue Cross will cover the costs to set up the trust. The terms of the trust will be Continued on page 4

SUCCESS BUILT ON KNOWLEDGE, SERVICE & TRUST SINCE 1988

If you had to find Franco Martorana’s house because you, say, needed to take a photo of him with one of his giant zucchinis, you certainly can’t miss it. Both sides of his driveway are an explosion of green, with a latesummer bounty of tomatoes, grapes, zucchinis, eggplant, figs and the like, hanging heavily on the boughs. “I like it, to pass time,” says the 72-year-old self-employed tile setter. “When I do my garden, most of the time I do it when I come home from work. I have supper, I come out here, relax.” Currently, a pair of five-foot zucchinis hanging from a tall wooden frame are his most eyecatching crop. They’re Sicilian Zucchinis, and Martorana’s favourite way to eat them is boiled with a little olive oil and black pepper. They’re delicious – and healthy, he says. “It’s incredible; it’s like medicine.” The two big zucchinis still left in Martorana’s garden won’t be eaten, however. He’s letting them grow and will dry them later for seeds. The original seeds came from his native Sicily. Martorana immigrated to Canada in 1975 for work, and his current garden has been a 26-year labour of love, providing the freshest food for him and his family. “It feels good,” he says of his time in the garden. “I’m proud when the seeds start to come out.”

Constable pays it forward in Burnaby ‘He basically was bold enough to tell me that being a person of colour you may be at a disadvantage ...’ By Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

Whenever Burnaby RCMP Const. Kwame Amoateng is called to deal with a young shoplifter, he remembers an important moment in his own life when he was just 16. “I got myself in trouble at a grocery store,” he tells the NOW. “I think it was a chocolate bar that I had taken from the store.” Born in Ghana, Amoateng had moved to Canada when he was eight years old and grew up in the tough Rexdale area of Toronto. He can’t remember the name or even the face of the officer who responded to his shoplifting call, but he’s never forgotten his advice. “He basically was bold enough to tell me that being a person of colour you may be at a disadvantage for certain things in life and you only make it worse if you don’t do things positive to help your life,” Amoateng says. “It was very bold, especially coming from a Caucasian police officer to be able to say that and be honest about it.” The encounter was a game changer for young Amoateng. From that point on he decided to pursue a career in law enforcement, eventually studying criminal justice at Ryerson University, working as a loss prevention officer and finally joining the RCMP five years ago. As a member of Burnaby RCMP’s community response team, he often leans on his experiences as a youth, including the shoplifting incident. “Even today when I go to shoplifter calls, I tell this story every time. I say, ‘You’ve been caught stealing today, but don’t you think that this is the end of you because, about 18 years ago, I was right here with you.” Knowing firsthand what a profound difference even a single interaction with a positive role model can make, Amoateng – along with his police partner Const. Alex Poirier – recently ran Burnaby RCMP’s first-ever soccer camp. The five-day camp at Edmonds Park

PHOTO CORNELIA NAYLOR from Aug. 28 to Sept. 1 drew about 18 kids, mostly from the Hillside Gardens housing complex – home to a diverse mix of families, including many newcomers and refugees. Amoateng (or just Kwame, to the kids) has become well known in the area since his days as a general duty officer. “I’d go into this neighbourhood for a call, and the kids would basically swarm me – and not in a bad way,” he says. “They’re curious.They want to know who you are, who you’re looking for, what you’re doing.”

Summer fun: Const. Alex Poirier boots a ball for a pair of players to chase during a drill at the Burnaby RCMP’s youth soccer camp last month. PHOTO CORNELIA NAYLOR

The soccer camp, aimed at kids aged eight to 12, was designed to build on the positive attitude most youngsters that age still have toward police, Amoateng says, and to give them something to do while their parents are at work. Some of the kids’ older siblings have already found themselves on the wrong side

of the criminal justice system, according to Amoateng, so the camp was also a chance to provide the younger ones with other, more positive role models. “You can’t influence everybody and you can’t help everybody, but you have to at least try,” he said.

City now Backlog of claims is anywhere ‘between 50,000 and 55,000’ Continued from page 1 established within 60 days of ratification, she noted, and the trust will be set up by Sept. 1, 2018. Heidi Worthington, Pacific Blue Cross senior vicepresident, said the company is “pleased” with the agreement. “(It) continues to offer a best-in-class benefits plan to our employees repre-

sented by CUPE 1816, and provides for better financial sustainability for the organization,” she wrote in an email. Employees won’t be heading back to work until Monday, Sept. 18.That’s because before the labour dispute, part of the Canada Way building was being renovated. “They need to get the

third floor completed and desks set up so we can bring 100 people back in,” said Miller. She anticipates the backlog to be anywhere between 50,000 and 55,000 claims. “The backlog is going to be huge.You’re going to deal with a lot of errors because management, they can try to do the job, but you can’t learn it in like two

to three days.” Asked how long it could take to clear everything up, Miller couldn’t say, but did suggest it all depends on whether Pacific Blue Cross will provide “blanket overtime.” Worthington said during the labour disruption, management prioritized claims and processed the costly ones. She did not give a

number on how many are still outstanding. “We are putting plans in place to ramp up our processing capacity.We still encourage members to use our online claiming options, and Insta-Claim with preferred providers,” she said. In a previous interview with the NOW, when describing what led to the labour dispute, Miller pointed

to what she called a “cultural shift” that happened in 2013, when Pacific Blue Cross appointed Jan Grude as its president and CEO. She said the working environment was “more or less family-oriented,” but it had since moved to “more corporate.” For an extended version of this story, got to www.burnabynow.com.

Police are investigating after a Burnaby house was hit in a drive-by shooting Friday afternoon. Burnaby RCMP were called to the 6400 block of Roberts Street at about 1:30 p.m. after reports of gunshots in the area, according to a police press release. Officers attended and confirmed shots had been fired. “The house was targeted.The shots were at the house,” Cpl. Daniela Panesar told the NOW. Although there were people inside the residence, no one was injured, she said. No suspects have been identified, according to po-

lice, but a car with tinted windows (possibly a Mazda 6) was seen speeding from the scene. “Officers are conducting neighbourhood canvassing and speaking with witnesses to obtain further information,” Panesar said. “The investigation is still in its early stages, but initial in-

dications are that this is an isolated but targeted incident.” Anyone with information about the shooting is asked to call police at 604-2947922.To remain anonymous, contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

Opinion now OUR VIEW

Another reason why voting matters

For the cynics who bailed on voting in the last provincial election because: “Ah, it doesn’t matter who is in the government. It’s all baloney,” the NDP has made it quite clear – it does matter. It matters a lot. Monday’s budget is clearly a 180-degree turn from the previous Liberal government. Despite former Premier Christy Clark’s lastminute futile effort to save

her political skin by stealing the NDP platform, it is very plainly a completely different government viewpoint. In fact, it is a completely different viewpoint on life. Where the Liberals left those on social assistance struggling for 10 years with no increases, the NDP is ensuring that disability and income recipients will be able to earn an extra $200 a month before the province

claws back any money from social assistance. It will also increase welfare and disability rates. Where the Liberals did not place a priority on helping the homeless, the NDP is spending $291 million over two years to build 2,000 new modular housing units for the homeless across the province and $170 million to provide 24/7 staffing and support

services. (As an aside, it will be interesting to see if Burnaby is part of this plan.) And with Darryl Plecas jumping ship from the Liberals and becoming Speaker, the NDP will likely be able to wait until 2021 to hold an election. That gives them plenty of time to turn the ship around and prove to the voters of B.C. that one doesn’t have to make a choice between

treating the poor fairly and enriching businesses. Hopefully, a good government can balance both interests without punishing either. But will they do that? If we have learned one thing from politics, it’s that ideologically based parties have a hard time steering towards a centre position. Both the Liberals and the NDP in the past have taken an election win to mean

that they can upend the system and recreate it entirely in their own vision. But we are comforted this time around that the NDP is proceeding cautiously. They are phasing in eliminating the MSP and are treading carefully on how they manage to subsidize child care. It will be interesting to see how they do all this in the February 2018 budget.

MY VIEW KEITH BALDREY

Now I know why Several weeks ago, NDP house leader Mike Farnworth insisted to me he was convinced his party was going to be able to cling to power longer than many – including those in that party – had speculated. I didn’t argue with him, but he seemed to want to drive the point home with me. Now I know why. That’s because Farnworth has been carrying around a secret – one he shared only with Premier John Horgan – that only became public late last week: that B.C. Liberal MLA Darryl Plecas was willing to serve as legislature Speaker. Plecas’ move (he is now an ex-B.C. Liberal MLA, as his old party terminated his membership for performing what it considered to be an act of betrayal) gives the NDP significant breathing room in the legislature. The NDP, propped up by the support of the three B.C. Green MLAs on confidence votes, will now have a three-seat majority (44 to the B.C. Liberals’ 41) when those votes occur. Even when the B.C. Liberals reclaim the Kelowna seat vacated by former premier Christy Clark whenever a byelection is held, the New Democrats will still have a somewhat comfortable twoseat cushion. Farnworth began talks with Plecas in the summer, and it didn’t take long for the two to come to an agreement (which may partly explain Horgan’s rather serene demeanour since moving into the premier’s office). The government house leader didn’t even tell members of his own caucus about this stunning development, and it blindsided the already beleaguered B.C. Liberal caucus as well.

Plecas’ decision has rocked the legislature like few things have before. In the four months since the election, the B.C. Liberals have largely acted like the NDP-Green arrangement was going to be short-lived and that they would return to what they considered their rightful place. Now, they are staring an ugly reality squarely in the face: they may well sit in the thankless Opposition benches for more than four years (the NDP intends to move the next election date to the fall of 2021 instead of the spring). The body language of the B.C. Liberal MLAs last Friday morning when Plecas was, by tradition, “dragged” to the Speaker’s chair by the two house leaders, was telling to say the least. Some of them were slumped down in their chairs, as they glared contemptuously at their former caucus colleague. They obviously didn’t see this coming (indeed, Plecas himself said were he to become Speaker, it would be a “dishonorable” act and one of “betrayal”). It’s possible Plecas could face a recall campaign, but one can’t begin for 18 months and they are almost impossible to pull off successfully. Or perhaps the Greens will tire of propping up the NDP, but I rather doubt that as well.The three MLAs seem to be enjoying their new status. The NDP can thank their veteran house leader and former leadership candidate for their suddenly brighter long-term prospects. Farnworth’s secret is going to pay off. Keith Baldrey is chief political reporter for Global B.C.

A new, outdoor fitness circuit at Burnaby Fraser Foreshore Park will be opening soon. Burnaby’s three Rotary Clubs, which undertook the task of raising the $150,000 to build it, will hold a grand opening ceremony this Friday. The fitness circuit includes a one-kilometre loop in the park, with four “pods.” Each pod contains three fitness workstations. “There’s balancing bars, bars where you can do chin ups; there’s kind of a reclining bicycle; there’s an elliptical trainer,” says Rotarian Peter Beynon. “There’s various other things where you can sit and lift your own weight.” In the fall of 2013, the clubs met with city officials to discuss possible options for a legacy project that could be built in honour of Canada’s 150th birthday. Ideas tossed around included a water park, a gazebo and a covered picnic area.

Citynow City MLA is going to jail Burnaby-Deer Lake MLA Anne Kang is going to jail – and for a good reason, too. The former Burnaby city councillor and a handful of others will cool their heels in the slammer Friday at Lougheed Town Centre until they raise enough money for cancer research and programs to post bail. “This will be a fun community event that will bring awareness and fund life-saving research that improves cancer treatments, prevents cancer and saves lives,” states an RCMP press release. The event is part of the fundraising efforts of three local Mounties cycling in the Cops for Cancer Tour de Coast Greater Vancouver – an 800-kilometre ride spanning nine days along the coast of British Columbia. In all, 40 law enforcement and emergency services personnel will take on the challenge, which kicks off on Sept. 20. Burnaby Mounties Sgt. Tess Landry, Sgt. Derek Thibodeau and Cpl. Mi-

chael Kalanj have trained and raised funds for the tour for the past few months. One of the projects Cops for Cancer supports is Camp Goodtimes, a camp in Maple Ridge that provides a medically supervised and fun experience for children and youth battling cancer. “This is an amazing place for these amazing kids,” said Landry, who is also a Tour de Coast captain. “It costs $1,500 to send one kid to

• Tennis for all ages and abilities • Competitive rates and convenient hours • Play tennis year round (bubble for the winter) • Members only clubhouse • Professional coaching staff • League play and member socials • Doubles night and junior development • Includes Tennis BC membership • No initiation fee for Burnaby residents

camp. I think all kids going through this journey should have an opportunity to experience this incredible place.” The “jail and bail” event starts at 10 a.m. Friday on the west side of Lougheed Town Centre by the Safeway. Bail for the jailed participants will be set at $1,500 – the cost of sending one kid to Camp Goodtimes. Local Mounties will be on hand to collect donations.

The community rallied together on Aug. 26 and helped raise more than $9,000 for youth affected by mental health challenges and addictions. The second annual Dan’s Legacy fundraising dinner was held at the Burnaby Winter Club.The charity supports at-risk youth in the Greater Vancouver area. “We’re so thrilled with the support we received from the community,” said executive director Barbara Coates in a press release. “There are many, many more young people out there asking for our help, which takes an incredible amount of courage to do. Our supporters not only help us turn lives around, they literally save lives.” “We believe that harm prevention is the most effective and sustainable solution to the opioid health

crisis,” said Tom Littlewood, psychologist and program director at Dan’s Legacy. “We help these kids find the insight and empowerment needed to learn to self-regulate, deal with the past trauma that is the root cause of their selfharm behaviour, and work towards meeting their education, housing and life goals.” Dan’s Legacy was founded in 2006 in memory of Dan Snook, who died of a drug overdose at the age of 19. In the past three years, the charity has helped more than 150 youth overcome obstacles and lead productive and fulfilling lives. Dinner guests feasted on appetizers, a buffet and desserts. Local sponsors included chef Shay Kelly of The Caterer and Gardenworks. HEROES RECOGNIZED The City of Burnaby has announced the recipients of this year’s Local Hero Awards.

the U.S. My dog Jo Jo is a toy poodle. He’s super cute and I really cherish his company. When I got back to Vancouver, I looked for a place where I could get his curly hair groomed every two weeks, but I couldn’t find a perfect place. I decided to go to pet grooming school to learn how to do it myself. I worked at another grooming store for five years, but my dream was to open my own place where dogs would have the best experience and be pampered.

UPCOMING COOKING CLASSES!

Q. WHAT PLANS DO YOU HAVE FOR THE FUTURE? We’ll continue to offer great products from around the world and we’ll build up a pet fashion line under our One de Fur brand. I’d like to offer clothes for dogs and the family as well as a line of beds and bags. And of course we’ll continue to do our best to give all the pets who enter an exquisite spa experience!

Heights Happenings! Fresh for Fall

September always feels like a new beginning. Whether you or your kids are going back to school, or you’re just embracing the start of new season, September is a chance to look and feel your best inside and out. The Heights has all you need to take on the fall season. I love starting September by visiting Companion Books or Brown’s Books. There is something special about navigating through the new, used and rare books on the shelves. I always discover a book that leaves me excited to start reading. Learning about something new is my favourite way to start a new school year. Next time you’re in Companion Books, be sure to ask Simona for her top picks. And, of course, shopping with Buddha, the resident cat librarian, is always a bonus. A new haircut is key for a fresh start after the Summer sun took its toll on my hair. Luckily, there are so many talented hair stylists in Burnaby Heights! The ladies of Pillars Salon, HeadWaze Hair, and Platform Hair offer affordable cuts and colouring with professional salon products that leave me looking and feeling ready to embrace the school year ahead. There are so many affordable and stylish salons in the Heights, so you’ll have no problem finding your perfect cut for the season. Adjusting your workout schedule with the new fall routine can sometimes be a challenge. This year, I plan on trying a new exercise that will leave me feeling excited to work out. Fitness kickboxing classes at Metro Performance Taekwondo Studio is a great option for people looking to gain self-defence skills and improve their fitness. If you’ve always wanted to try weightlifting and don’t know where to

Trends in home remodeling and decor tend to come and go. Something that is popular for a little while can fall out of favor when the next new idea comes along. New trends are always on the horizon, and 2017 may encourage homeowners to try something new.

METALLICS AND METALS ARE BACK Although stainless steel accents in the kitchen have long been popular, the glistening look of metal and metallic shades are back in a big way. Inspired by the 1950s and 1970s, brass, gold and metallic finishes are

Knights stride past Holy Cross in season opener Running back Tyler Eckert scores three touchdowns as STM kicks off new year Dan Olson

dolson@burnabynow.com

It’s pretty customary that the list of ‘things to improve on’ out-number the list of ‘done well’ after the first game of a high school football season. St.Thomas More senior football coach Steve De Lazzari said, while there was still work to be done, Saturday’s 34-0 over the Holy Cross Crusaders was a fine way to kick-off the season. “I wouldn’t say that,” De Lazzari replied when asked if the performance was up to mid-season form. “We definitely have some things to work on and iron out, but it was great to see them execute some plays very well and get the win.” It didn’t take long for STM to put one on the scoreboard. After the Crusaders fumbled the ball inside the Knights territory on their first drive, the Burnaby boys only needed one play from scrimmage to break the shutout. Grade 12 captain Tyler Eckert found open territory and scampered 63 yards for the game’s first major. “(Eckert) is a very fast running back and once he got the seam he was hard to catch,” noted De Lazzari. As someone who first gave the position a go just last year, Eckert has quickly established himself as a power runner that defences flail at trying to stop.

Pulling out all the stops: St. Thomas More’s Mateo Carteri prepares to stop Holy Cross quarterback Nate Hunt during Saturday’s exhibition game in Burnaby. The Knights got the season off to a positive start, rolling to a 34-0 victory. PHOTO JENNIFER GAUTHIER

In the second quarter, Eckert dashed 79 yards for another touchdown, and finished the day with three majors, carrying 13 times for 254 yards. On defence, he tied teammate Joel Pielak for a team-high six tackles, and added two quarterback sacks to his tally.

Grade 11 lineman Sam Steele collared five tackles, while David Osho pulled down an interception. The team also counted a pair of majors through the air, as firstyear quarterback Dario Ciccone hit Michael Simone for a 10-yard strike, and Vasco Repole on a seven-yard throw.

Ciccone, who has taken on the starting role as a Grade 11, completed five of six pass attempts for 68 yards on the day. As a whole, STM posted 418 offensive yards. De Lazzari also noted the work of right tackle Josh Marchese, who worked well in creating holes for

the rushing game and dampened Holy Cross’ attempts to gain yards on defence. The Knights expect a tougher test in Friday’s exhibition matchup, which pits them against another AA program, but this time No. 1-ranked Abbotford, in Abbotsford.

Rookies pay dividends in Grandview’s ﬁrst victory Offence starts slow but picks up pace to beat Surrey with late goals

Dan Olson

dolson@burnabynow.com

With practise comes perfomance. Perfection will come, hopefully, sooner than later. The Grandview Steelers delivered a solid effort Sunday but needed two late goals to emerge with a 3-1 victory over the Surrey Knights at the Burnaby Winter Club. Buoyed by two rookies cashing in their first goals in the Pacific Junior Hockey League, Grandview collected its first win of 2017/18 and sits 1-1 after the first week of action. Emerson Kostner’s tally six minutes into the game, and just a handful of seconds after the team successfully killed off a penalty, gave the hosts a 1-0 lead. It would last through a scoreless

second period, before Surrey tied it up midway through the third. Another first-year Grandview player,William Hazell-Penaluna, broke the stalemate with 3:47 remaining in the third, on assists from Devan Purhar and Anthony Belevoli. A product of hard work and persistence, the game-winning goal beat Surrey’s Zakery Babin, who was the main roadblock all game. The Steelers fired 44 shots at the Knights net, including 36 over the final 40 minutes. There were a few tense moments as the clock wound down, but veteran Jeffrey Wong squelched any comeback attempt from Surrey with an empty-netter with 33 seconds remaining. “It was a little stressful but we found a way to win it,” remarked Grandview head coach Stevan

Matic. “I was pleased with our performance, that we forechecked well and created a lot of scoring chances.” The Steelers lineup featured seven rookies, and is currently backstopped by a pair of firstyear junior netminders in Naveen Kainth, who picked up the win on Sunday, and Matteo Petrelli. Last year’s starter, Matteo Paler-Chow, signed with Powell River of the B.C. Hockey League, while Cale Dolan, who posted an impressive 7-0 record behind a 0.90 goals-against average, was pushing for a spot withYorkton of the Saskatchewan Junior A Hockey League. In the first two games, the newcomers have done their part, Matic said. It’s the veterans who are slowly adjusting to their new roles and a return to junior B. “I think they’re still settling in.

We expect a lot from our veterans, and there’s some players still adjusting to new lines and new roles,” he said. It’s a three-game week for

Grandview, who played Delta last night (past the NOW’s deadline), visit North Van on Saturday, and host Ridge Meadows on Sunday, 7:15 p.m. at BWC.

Clan take ﬁve at Ash Creek By placing nine in the top-20 across the women’s and men’s finishers at last week’s Ash Creek Invitational cross country meet, Simon Fraser University showed why the rankings are ready for a shake-up. The No. 14-ranked SFU women’s team ran a perfect race and swept the top five positions at Ash Creek, while the men’s team took top honours with four runners amongst the top 10. It was a double win for Simon Fraser in the opening race of the season, edging Alaska Anchorage in both races. In the women’s competition, the Clan claimed the top five spots for a perfect score (15 pts). Leading the way was senior Julia Howley, who completed the 4.6-kilometre course in 16:24.6. Junior Addy Townsend (2nd, 16:38.5), freshman Olivia Willett (3rd, 16:49.7), senior Miryam Bassett (16:50.8) and junior Chelsea Ribeiro (5th, 16:53.7) rounded out the top five for SFU.

On the men’s side,West Van junior Rowan Dockerty led the team the entire distance, only trailing Alaska Anchorage’s Felix Kemboi. Kemboi completed the 6.2-km competition in 18:42.8, just three seconds ahead of Doherty.

BURNABY / TR I-CI T IES

LISTINGS • NEW HOMES • OPEN HOUSES

Real estate calm before the fall market storm? Despite Greater Vancouver as a whole finishing a strong month for real estate sales, the week leading up to the Labour Day weekend was relatively quiet for the Burnaby and Tri-Cities housing market. Sales during the week of August 28 to September 3 (registered as of September 12) slipped again in both attached and detached categories, to 85 and 21 units respectively. Exactly 50% of the region’s 106 sales went for over asking, which is slightly lower than in recent weeks and months. Just over 15% properties sold precisely on list price, and just below 35% were negotiated under asking. Breaking that down by home type, 55% of the 85 attached home sales went for above list price compared with just 29% of the 21 detached homes, or six properties. However, prices remain robust in the region, with the median sale price of a

VICTORIANA

detached hom at $1,340,000 – higher than the previous week – and $548K for an attached home. That breaks down as and $480K for a condo. Burnaby North saw the highest detached-home median sale price that week, at $1.49 million, whereas the least-expensive area for single-family homes was Port Coquitlam. Looking closer at Burnaby and Tri-Cities sales during that week, the median sale price per square foot (which trends lower in detached homes due to economies of scale) was $456.54 for a single-family home and $620.48 for an attached unit. The most expensive home sale of the week was a large single-family home in Burnaby’s Montecito neighbourhood. This 1978-built house still has its original, extremely dated décor – but it also has 3,824 square feet of living space, a large lot and great city views, and could make a beautiful home after renovation. With that in mind, it sold for $30K above its
