It all started here
Burnaby was the first to commit to proclaiming a B.C. Rivers Day By Tereza Verenca
tverenca@burnabynow.com
When Mark Angelo organized the first-ever B.C. Rivers Day 37 years ago, he never imagined what would unfold in the decades to follow. The inaugural event was a cleanup of the Thompson River. Angelo and a host of volunteers put together a “huge flotilla of rafts” and spent the day drifting from Spences Bridge to Lytton, cleaning up debris. Four tons of garbage was collected as well as five cars and trucks that had been resting on the bank. “It was just a wonderful, very successful outing that was just one of those things, you felt really good you were part of it,” said Angelo, the former head of the fish and wildlife program at BCIT. “We planned a few more events the next year and a few more after that.” In 1993, Angelo started approaching local governments about proclaiming a B.C. Rivers Day.The City of Burnaby was the first to make the commitment. “Council was very enthusiastic and endorsed it unanimously,” he told the NOW. “It just started to build and build, and we got to a point where we had 100 events
FOR THE LOVE OF WATER: Mark Angelo, founder of B.C. Rivers Day and World Rivers Day, at Deer Lake Brook, near the Burnaby Village Museum. This year’s event is set for Sunday, Sept. 24 at the museum. There will be fun activities for the whole family, including crafts, music and demonstrations. PHOTO JENNIFER GAUTHIER taking place around British Columbia and up to 75,000 participants.” In 2005, Angelo took it one step further and made it a global event.World Rivers Day was launched in conjunction with a United Nations initiative called the Water for Life Decade, which ran from 2005 to 2015. “I thought, ‘Wow, the idea of World Rivers Day would be wonderful.They could use our experience and success with B.C. Rivers Day as a template,’” Angelo said. “It has since grown in leaps and bounds.” How much has it grown, exactly? More than 70 countries will be participating in World Rivers Day (Sunday, Sept. 24), with “thousands of events and millions of people.” Events are happening in Eng-
land, India, the U.S. and Australia, to name a few. “It’s, without question, one of the biggest environmental celebrations on the planet.To think
Rivers are the arteries of our planet
the roots of that great international celebration comes right back here to British Columbia ... (it’s) something we should all be proud of.” World Rivers Day will be celebrated at the Burnaby Village Museum, 6501 Deer Lake Ave. For Angelo, Sept. 24 is all about creating awareness about the value of local waterways.
“Rivers are the arteries of our planet.When you come right down to it, water is life.We all depend on fresh water. In addition, our rivers have immense natural values, cultural values, recreational values and economic values,” he said. In Burnaby, Angelo noted most of the streams that existed 125 years ago are still there (about 70 per cent). “It’s an interesting comparison to Vancouver, where 125 years ago, (Vancouver) had more than 50 salmon-bearing streams within the borders of the city. Most of those were lost; they were paved over ... and buried underground.” Looking back, Angelo said he never expected B.C. Rivers Day to flourish like it has. “I think it highlights the fact

SENIORS’ CARE
Daughter says care ‘sadly declined’ at centre Family moves their mother citing staff changes, but executive director says the care lapses were ‘one-offs’ By Tereza Verenca
tverenca@burnabynow.com
The level of care at the George Derby Centre has “sadly declined” since management laid off all nursing staff last year and contracted out their positions, according to the daughter of a Korean War vet. Robert and Joan Hoffman moved into the Burnaby veterans care home in 2012. Robert died there in 2013, and Joan remained at George Derby up until only a few weeks ago, when her daughter Jane Wheeler and
her siblings transferred her to another facility in White Rock. “It became very sad because we realized something was wrong,”Wheeler told the NOW in a phone interview from her Alberta home. In spring 2016, George Derby issued layoff notices to more than 50 nurses because of financial difficulties at the centre. Wheeler said, since those layoff notices were issued, staff turnover has been high and morale almost non-existent. In her mother’s case (Joan
has Alzheimer’s), George Derby staff failed on a number of occasions, according to Wheeler. Her mom’s care chart noted “glasses, knee brace and walker.” But on Aug. 25,Wheeler said she found Joan without her knee brace and dressed in someone else’s clothing. “(The) 3 p.m. shift nurse came on and said she would check the chart. She brought the chart to the room; it was empty, not one item had been marked,” she added. “I asked if mom had received her morning and lunch medicine. She said,
‘Of course, she would have.’ I asked how she knew. She could not answer except, ‘So sorry, it was a new (care aide) casual.’” There was another incident in March when Wheeler was in town for a conference. Joan’s care chart noted she had to be reminded to go to the bathroom before every meal, and be helped if need be, to ensure she wasn’t sitting in a wet diaper all day. “I was there for five days. No one came to check or offer to take mom to the bathroom,”Wheeler said.
“Maybe they assumed I was doing it, I don’t know. But the fact that she had no skin on her buttocks was really quite disconcerting for me.” In June, Joan was punched in the face by another resident. Staff called the family to let them know, but they had to wait until a weekday to talk to the ward manager about the incident since it happened on a weekend,Wheeler told the NOW. Another time when Wheeler went to grab the “spare” wheelchair to use for her mother, she found feces on it.The care aide
picked it up with a Kleenex and told her because it was dry and crusty, it was OK to use the chair,Wheeler said. “I asked her what I was to use and she brought a towel to put on the seat so we could use it. No offer to sanitize it for safety.” The “breaking point” for the family was Aug. 6. Joan left George Derby and walked 2.5 kilometres until she was found by police, according to Wheeler. Staff didn’t know where she was, she said, and again, the care aide casuals got the blame. Continued on page 9

Red speaks out about Hearing Loss. Red Robinson Radio and TV personality
Pipeline project failed pre-construction audit
“During my career in radio I wore a headset to hear everything that’s happening on air. However, the moment my Audiologist turned on my new hearing aids, I realized just how much I had been missing! Now my whole world has become my sound stage!
But National Energy Board says company was quick to correct issues and can now proceed with plans Tereza Verenca
tverenca@burnabynow.com
Trans Mountain failed its pre-construction audit earlier this year but has since got back on track, the National Energy Board announced last week. Between April 13 and June 14, 2017, the NEB interviewed Trans Mountain employees and reviewed internal documents like training manuals and company procedures.The goal of a pre-construction audit is to see whether all the necessary measures to manage construction-related safety and environmental protection for the construction of the project have been established. After reviewing 37 items in the Trans Mountain audit, the national energy regulator found 15 items to be non-compliant. Trans Mountain was provided with the audit results on Aug. 4, and on Aug. 11, the company submitted what’s known as a corrective action plan (CAP) to address the board’s findings. “The company was very
quick to file its correction action plan, which has been approved by the NEB, and therefore, the company can proceed with its construction (where all requirements have been met),” NEB spokesperson James Stevenson told the NOW. Of the 15 non-compliant items, 13 have been rectified with the CAP and the remaining two are expected to be approved by the end of this month, added Stevenson. At the time, non-compliant items included things like not identifying the hazards related to the pipeline project (this has since been addressed with the CAP) and failing to set up a process to manage changes that occur during pipeline construction, including design, regulatory and procedural changes. “These are not like the conditions,” Stevenson said of the 157 conditions the NEB attached to the project in May 2016 when it recommended the federal government approve the expansion project. Rather, it’s about checking the procedures a company has in

place, he said. The NEB reviews compliance on an ongoing basis, Stevenson noted, and has the authority to stop work if compliance is not maintained. Construction on the twinning of the $7.4-billion, Edmonton-to-Burnaby pipeline is expected to start this month, according to Trans Mountain’s website. In an emailed statement, Trans Mountain spokesperson Ali Hounsell said, “Safety is Kinder Morgan’s first priority and we are committed to building the Trans Mountain expansion project in a way that ensures the safety of our workers, communities and the environment.We are pleased the NEB has confirmed we have put in place the necessary documentation, processes and systems to move forward with construction.”

Twin-rinks facility set for South Burnaby JIFFY LUBE NEW WESTMINSTER
By Tereza Verenca

The city is inviting the public to gives its feedback on the new ice complex planned for South Burnaby. Preliminary sketches of the twin-rinks facility, which will be located at 10th Avenue and 18th Street in the Edmonds neighbourhood, were unveiled during an open house on Sept. 14. Council put aside $250,000 for a feasibility and schematic design study of the project last December.The contract was awarded to HCMA Architecture + Design, and public consultation is one aspect of the company’s study. City staff is advocating for an L-shaped layout for the building, Craig Collis, assistant director of recreation, told the NOW. “It allows us to have the

parking lot towards 10th Avenue and a lobby area inside the elbow of the two rinks,” he said. The complex, expected to be 70,000 square feet, will boast a skate shop, a concession and plenty of lobby amenities where users can lace up. Each rink will have its own change rooms. There’s also a second
floor with offices and a staff area, as well as plenty of windows to give visitors a bird’s eye view into the arenas. The roof, meanwhile, is designed with north-facing, glazed windows, giving the space lots of natural light, according to Collis. Continued on page 8

Opinion now OUR VIEW
When care is counted in precious minutes
It is seldom easy to entrust a loved one’s care to others. Whether it’s a daycare or a seniors facility, the fact is that the most vulnerable young and old among us are often unable to tell us if they are being neglected. One can only hope that when one is not personally there to watch over them that someone is doing what they should for our loved ones. Sadly, that is not al-
ways the case. Take our page three story detailing one family’s experiences at the George Derby Care Centre in Burnaby. Joan Hoffman’s family was rightly concerned when they discovered their mother was being left in soiled clothes, missing her medicine doses and, eventually, wandered away from the centre when a door was left unlocked. The family has since
moved their mother to a White Rock facility but felt duty bound to tell their story so others may be aware. The centre was in our headlines last year when the facility management decided to lay off longtime nurses and care aides and replace them with contracted-out staff. The management said they did this reluctantly and only because they couldn’t afford the higher
wages.They had fought for a different funding formula from Fraser Health, but did not succeed. The executive director of the George Derby Centre Society says the change has not impacted care at the facility. He says: “The care level has been consistent and if not better.” B.C. seniors’ advocate Isobel Mackenzie recently released a major report on
seniors in residential care in B.C. The report found staffing levels were a major concern of almost 10,000 seniors and family members who responded to a survey. Mackenzie said: “While staff overall are caring and respectful, consistent feedback is that there simply are not enough staff to ensure residents’ needs are taken care of when they need to be.”
An earlier report found 91 per cent of care homes in B.C. failed to meet the Ministry of Health’s staffing guideline of 3.36 hours of care per senior per day in 2015/16. George Derby had 2.87 direct-care hours per patient per day. This simply isn’t good enough in Burnaby or anywhere in B.C.. The Hoffman family and many others, we believe, would agree.
MY VIEW KEITH BALDREY
Balancing budget and promises The claim by B.C. Green Party leader Andrew Weaver that his party could take credit for two key NDP campaign promises not being included in last week’s budget “update” provides yet another glimpse into the evolving nature of this province’s ruling alliance. Weaver bluntly claimed the fact there was no sign of the $10-a-day-daycare pledge or of the promised $400 renters’ “rebate” in the NDP’s first stab at a financial plan was purely because the Greens oppose both measures. But that claim conveniently masks a fact closer to the truth: the NDP government simply can’t afford to pay for these two programs unless it wanted to break another key campaign promise: to deliver balanced budgets. That the NDP let Weaver get away with such lofty rhetorical claims was telling. Giving the impression that he had some impact on the budget conveniently assists building a narrative both the NDP and the Greens favour: that minority governments “work” and are not in danger of always falling apart. Both parties want to leave this impression as many times as possible because both think it will gradually bolster the case for changing to a voting system that uses some sort of proportional representation, which would likely ensure minority governments will become the rule rather than the exception. NDP finance minister Carole James insisted to reporters after her budget presentation that she was still
committed to eventually implementing both the daycare and rebate pledges, but it’s hard to see how she’s going to do that unless government revenues increase significantly. The NDP’s own campaign document spell out the hefty costs of both programs. The daycare plan would have cost $175 million for the rest of this year alone as it would have begun to be implemented.That cost would rise to $280 million next fiscal year, and a whopping $400 million the following year. The renters’ scheme is pegged at $135 million this year and $265 million next year. James is projecting a modest $228 million surplus next year, but using the NDP’s own math shows that would be more than wiped out by the costs of these two programs. Combined, they come in at $545 million next year and $665 million the following year. The programs would wipe out that projected surplus plus the $300 million forecast allowance as well. Theoretically, the NDP government’s decision to annually raise the carbon tax and to no longer make it revenue “neutral” (perhaps the single biggest move in the entire budget update) may provide new money to start paying for these programs. But that won’t happen for several years at least. Until then, I expect the Green Party to continue to claim they are responsible for not allowing that Continued on page 7

Opinionnow City must stop passing the buck on housing Dear Editor: I totally agree with the letter from Linda J. Shaw in the Burnaby Now, on Friday, Sept. 8 (Density has no place on busy bottleneck route). Linda describes the severe increase in traffic on Canada Way that will come with the completion of the townhouses being built on Claude Avenue, which runs parallel to Canada Way. Canada Way already backs up to get onto the freeway, especially when the bus stops in the right lane near Sperling. Claude Avenue traffic will funnel into Canada Way just before the bus stop. The city is keen on increasing density but hasn’t always included the need for the infrastructure to support its big plans. Our municipal government seems more interested in having developers funnelling money into their billionplus surplus account than in making Burnaby a better and affordable place to live. Each and every one of the mayor and councillors have lived in Burnaby for many years. I assume they all own their own homes. But what about the current and former Burnaby residents who can’t afford to buy a house or expensive condo? Burnaby is lagging behind its neighbours when it comes to creating purpose-built market rental and social housing. According to Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation data, Burnaby has seen a net loss of purpose-built market rental housing. I am so weary of Mayor Derek Corrigan always
passing the buck by insisting that it is the provincial and federal governments that are totally responsible for rental units. Other municipalities are also trying to make their cities more affordable by allowing options like laneway houses. Burnaby only allows single-family dwellings or duplexes. I challenge our city representatives to get to work on common sense planning for affordability and the urgent need for infrastructure to go along with it. Wendy Fieber, Burnaby
Baldrey: Horse trading Continued from page 6 expensive daycare plan and renter rebate scheme to ever come to reality (although Green MLA Sonia Furstenau has said she wouldn’t vote against either them if they are eventually in a bill). But the political reality is something far more common and traditional: the sitting government simply doesn’t have the money to pay for those programs. And no amount of political rhetoric flowing from the Greens changes that, but it does add to the impression that there is a bunch of horse trading going on in a minority government. Keith Baldrey is chief political reporter for Global B.C.

Upon arrival, officers found three victims suffering from stab wounds. Two of the victims sustained non-life-threatening injuries, while a third died of their injuries. A male suspect was arrested a short distance from
the scene. The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) has been called in, and the area around the scene will be cordoned off for a significant amount of time, according to police. Anyone with information
City seeks feedback on arenas Continued from page 5 “A more neutral option would be to have a flat gravel roof, which is not very appealing,” he said. User groups include ice hockey, lacrosse, ringette, speed skating, figure skating and sledge hockey, to name a few.When it’s off season, the arenas will be used for other community events, added Collis. Once completed, each rink will be able to host between 150 and 300 spectators. The city looked at 14 different sites in South Burnaby, eventually narrowing its list down to three options. The 10th Avenue and
18th Street site was “unencumbered,” said Collis, because it’s well positioned with Byrne Creek Secondary School, a church, a park and the future Southgate development nearby. “Rink facilities are very large buildings, so it’ll look really out of context in a residential neighbourhood, so you have to be kind of careful.” Asked about its close proximity to the New Westminster border, and whether the city has concerns of non-Burnaby residents using the arenas, Collis said the city doesn’t mind. “We build facilities for Burnaby people and we ex-
pect Burnaby people to use them, but really, we create recreation opportunities for everybody to be healthy,” he said. “People favour our facilities for proximity, or maybe there’s a certain feature about them they like, just the same way I’m sure Burnaby people may go to the Canada Games Pool (in New West).” The public has until Friday, Sept. 29 to provide feedback.To view the sketches and fill out a small questionnaire, visit tinyurl. com/BBYConsultations. Construction is estimated to start next fall, with completion sometime in 2020.

Newsnow Family moves mom after failures Continued from page 3 Wheeler believes her mom was trying to tell them something when she walked off the premises. “People with Alzheimer’s wander. But mom had packed up all the pictures she owned. She had two bags with her and her walker was loaded. She was leaving.We wondered what was going on and just because of the incident, she’d been wandering more than normal, but this was the first time she packed up her room to go.” Wheeler would like to see more training put in place for new casuals and better surveillance on site. (There are cameras rolling 24/7 but no one is watching the footage live.) “They really need to pay someone to watch that door all the time. Cameras are not sufficient,” she said. Peter Julian, MP for New Westminster-Burnaby, said “several” people have complained to him about service at George Derby. “I’m very disappointed.
George Derby residents deserve our thanks.” Ricky Kwan, executive director of the George Derby Care Society, disputed Wheeler’s claim that the level of care has gone down. “The care level has been consistent and if not better,” he said, calling Joan’s experiences “one-offs.” “It could happen during the day that one of the care aides is not following through the process. For that reason, we have internal investigations and we are working to make sure all the team members are pulling their weight.” Kwan noted the centre sometimes relies on casual care aides in the summer when part-time and fulltime staff go on vacation. “When the casual comes in, they may not have a shift for four to six weeks, so that’s why every time they’re coming in, they may have to pick up a few shifts before they get familiar with all the processes (and the residents),” he explained. As for the Aug. 6 inci-
dent, Kwan said staff was not aware Joan disappeared. The internal investigation discovered she went through a gate that should have been locked. “We found out from our maintenance worker, unfortunately, he did not lock the door.We are reviewing to improve surveillance and also locking systems. We also instructed all employees using that gate to be more vigilant,” said Kwan. The executive director said he’d like to see a better funding formula from Fraser Health so better care can be provided. “We have been trying our best to meet the needs of our residents, but it’s getting tougher and tougher from an operator’s perspective,” said Kwan. The health authority, which is responsible for funding the centre’s operations costs, gives the George Derby Care Society $17.4 million annually. Funding has increased each year for the past six years for a total increase of $820,000.
An audit done by Fraser Health last year found George Derby was appropriately funded. One of the main contributing factors to George Derby’s financial troubles was a lack of planning to prepare for funding reductions from Veterans Affairs Canada despite advance notice dating back several years. Veterans Affairs used to give the centre a chunk of funding to cover special care and programs for veterans, and some civilian residents were lumped into those specially funded programs. However, that funding model changed to per capita model as the number of veterans decreased. Meanwhile, a report released earlier this year found 91 per cent of care homes in B.C. failed to meet the Ministry of Health’s staffing guideline of 3.36 hours of care per senior per day in 2015/16. George Derby had 2.87 direct-care hours per patient per day.

2017 Annual Tax Sale The Local Government Act Sec. 645(1) states “At 10:00 A.M. on the last Monday in September, at the council chambers, the collector must conduct the annual tax sale by offering for sale by public auction each parcel of real property on which taxes are delinquent.” Prospective bidders are advised that it is their responsibility to search the title in advance to determine if there are any charges against the property. All properties are sold as is. All bidders must pre-register to be eligible to bid at the auction. Registration will start at 9:00 A.M. and bidders must have photo ID, Social Insurance Number and must have in their possession certified funds at the time of registration. The minimum bid is the upset price, that is, the current taxes and penalties, arrears and delinquent taxes and interest, 5% tax sale costs and Land Title Office transfer fees. Upon completion of each sale, the successful bidder must make payment immediately before the auction continues to the next property. Acceptable forms of payment are: certified cheque, and bank draft. Debit, cash and credit cards are not accepted. If the successful bidder does not have the full payment required, the property will be put back in to the auction. Properties sold at tax sale have a redemption period of one year from the date of the tax sale by the property owner. Properties not redeemed are subject to Property Transfer Tax, by the purchaser, under the Property Purchase Tax Act. This tax will be calculated on the market value of the property at the time the title is transferred to the purchaser at the Land Title Office. Take Notice that the following properties shall, on the 25th day of September, 2017, in the Council Chambers of the City Hall, 4949 Canada Way, Burnaby BC at the hours of 10:00 A.M. be offered for sale at the public auction, unless delinquent taxes with interest are paid by September 22nd, 2017.

Fever Cabaret launches new Shadbolt season Julie MacLellan LIVELY CITY
jmaclellan@burnabynow.com
It’s billed as a night of “celebrating bad ideas that are so, so good” – and really, with a billing like that, how can you resist?

the seductive strains of a piano, beckoning you to sit at dimly lit tables and engage with the captivating hostess who seems to see through to your deepest desires.The sensuality of her bewitching laugh is matched only by her biting repartee. Somehow, though, you want more than anything to have her turn her sharp tongue on you. She begins to sing about her obsession with a tiny-handed, powerful man. Your cheeks flush as you wonder: Is it just me, or is it getting hotter in here?” What else can I say after that? Fever Cabaret features
original songs and material by Cory Philley, Joel DeStefano and Melanie Yeats, and it’s performed by DeStefano andYeats, with Philley directing. It’s on Thursday through Saturday, Sept. 21 to 23, at 8 p.m., and tickets are $18 (with wine and beer available for $5).

Grand Villa Casino is marking 25 years in operation, and to celebrate, it’s getting a $15-million facelift. Gateway Casinos and Entertainment announced the project earlier this month, which will see a refresh of the Delta Hotel Burnaby conference centre and public spaces, renovation of the gaming floor and new dining options that would make any foodie’s mouth water. New eateries planned include Chow Lucky Noodle Bar, serving fresh wokfried creations, Atlas Steak + Fish, a twist on the modern steakhouse (there are two Atlas locations already up and running in Edmonton and Kamloops), and Villa Bistro, according to a press release. “This spectacular $15-million renovation of our flagship property will
bring even more incomparable customer experiences to Grand Villa and Delta Hotels Burnaby,” said Gateway CEO Tony Santo in the release. Work is already underway on the gaming floor renovations, and Chow is already open, with Atlas expected to open later this month.

Fresh Prep meals come ready to cook with all the ingredients portioned out. The meal options change each week but some examples include: lime chicken tacos, port and kimchi fried rice, honey sriracha salmon and eggplant ragu over pappardelle.

Robert Edwards and Cindy Cook were in Africa from Sept. 8 to 18 as World Vision volunteers, discovering the impact of World Vision programs first-hand. The group visited projects in Jirapa and West Gonja, where the got to know some of the local children who are in need of sponsors. “Volunteers are essential to World Vision, as they are to community groups, hospitals, shelters, churches, and other not-for-profit organizations,” reads a press release. “They teach, they lead, they support, they sacrifice, they inspire … and they make it possible for entire sectors, like international development, to thrive.” World Vision started working in Ghana in 1979. The organization’s goal for 2021 is to be contributing to “the sustained well-being of 4.5 million vulnerable children, their families and communities.”

Mayor Derek Corrigan urged men 50 years and older to get checked out. “I know it’s an unpleasant thing to go through, and I know most men aren’t very attentive to looking after that issue, but I want to urge everyone it’s so curable if it’s found early, but it can be so deadly if you don’t

Above left: Rotary’s Bala Naidoo, Mayor Derek Corrigan and District 5040 governor Don Evans cut the ribbon. Above: David Eng, Bala Naidoo and Emilia Nikolic check out the fitness equipment.

Byrne goes to Bandits first overall Burnaby Laker leads strong B.C. group into NLL 2017 draft
If there was any drama going into the National Lacrosse League draft on Monday, it wasn’t manufactured by the Buffalo Bandits. Holders of the first overall pick, the Bandits’ intentions were an open secret – the club had a spot reserved for an elite lefthanded stick, and Josh Byrne just happened to be the top-ranked player eligible for the draft.The Bandits made it official when they called Byrne’s name at the draft event in Oakville, Ont. The second-year forward with the Burnaby Lakers had impressed upon NLL scouts and coaches just how ready he was for the pro circuit by ripping up the pro field Major Lacrosse League as a rookie with the Chesapeake Bayhawks a few months earlier. “You dream about this as a little kid. To be even mentioned with some of the names out here, it’s an honour,” Byrne said in an interview Monday on NLLTV. “With Chesapeake, Lyle Thompson, he’s an unreal player and I got very lucky with that (team). Hopefully that paves the way into playing in the NLL.” The 23-year-old wrapped up his debut in the MLL, establishing a new pro field league record for rookies with 39 goals. Along with two seasons with the Western Lacrosse Association’s Lakers, the evidence on the kind of impact Byrne would bring to the NLL was beyond circumstantial, noted Bandits general manager Steve Dietrich. “The toughest thing to find in the sport right now is offensive lefties,” Dietrich told the Buffalo News. “To get one that is big, athletic, a goal scorer, young – it was too hard to pass up.” Since finishing his final year at Hofstra University this past spring, Byrne has piled up the points with both the Lakers and the Bayhawks. For Burnaby, the New Westminster native counted nine goals and 26 assists over 10 games, helping drive the club to its first WLA regular season title. As a MLL rookie in Chesapeake, Byrne transitioned from university by scoring seven goals in his first game. “He’s played against men,” Dietrich added. “It’s always nice when they’ve proven against the competition they’re going to see.” The next two players selected – Jake Withers, by Rochester, and Zach Currier, by Calgary – were part of the deep Peterborough Lakers lineup that defeated New West in six games for the Mann Cup last week. Burnaby’s Drew Belgrave, who played on the Salmonbellies as a junior callup during the playoffs and Mann Cup final, was chosen 15th overall by the Georgia Swarm, while the Lakers’ Cam Milligan went to New England with the 54th pick. Milligan contributed 16 goals and 35 assists to finish tied for third in team scoring during the 2017 WLA season.

Burnaby launches new season right
Premier women pick up first win in two seasons, topping Seattle in opener Dan Olson
dolson@burnabynow.com
With last year’s league finalists the Seattle Saracens as the opposition, the Burnaby Lake Rugby Club’s premier women’s team entered Saturday’s tilt with some question marks. Have they made strides to improve on last year’s underwhelming results? Could they stop Seattle’s outside game, which played havoc with the defence last season? And were they capable of settling down for a home opener, with a healthy lineup? The end results proved to be yes, yes and yes. Burnaby Lake shook off an
early deficit to bowl over Seattle 43-27 in premier women’s play, doing something they were unable to do last season. And, after an 0-13 year, it felt good to get that long-awaited win out of the way. Burnaby trailed 15-5 in the first half as the visitors capitalized on a couple of turnovers, but began to scratch back when Iona Schamberger dove across the line for a late score. In the second half, the momentum shifted to the inside as Burnaby’s forwards started to free-wheel. Gabby Hindley and Jessica Harvey both counted tries with up-the-middle runs, while Camilla Maslo went out-
side on two drives, giving the Lakers the lead. A two-yard push by Carly Walker and a final try by Gen Gratton rounded out the offence for Burnaby. Turning in standout efforts from the back row were Sonya Foulds, who scored the team’s opening try off a set-up from Katie Grudzinski, and Hindley. Also performing well was Aly Govorchin, who shifted from the front row with the addition of Walker, to No. 12. Burnaby Lake now looks for its second victory when they visit the Wanderers in Oak Bay. In men’s premier play, James Reekie’s try and conversion
broke a 14-14 tie and powered the Burnaby Lake men’s premier side past Seattle 52-19 on Saturday. Despite the final margin, it was touch-and-go in the first half. Dan Josok and Jeke Gotegote gave Burnaby an early lead but Seattle drove back with a pair of tries to pull even. That’s when Reekie restored a lead, but the visitors did get within two points before the Laker forwards turned it on. Racking up second half tries were Darren McRory, Cody Rockson and Josok. The win moves Burnaby to 2-0, with a game in Victoria against James Bay their next test.
Quick goals prove big obstacle for Steelers Quick goals and deep holes are beginning to take their toll on the Grandview Steelers. The Pacific Junior B Hockey League club couldn’t overcome an early deficit and ended up falling 4-2 to the visiting Ridge Meadows Flames on Sunday. Ridge Meadows struck quickly when Quenton Magnuson put the puck past Grandview’s Matteo Petrelli just 12 seconds into the first period.They upped their lead to
2-0 just over a minute later. Another fast start to the second period, which saw the Flames go up 3-0 before the frame was 40 seconds old, gave the Steelers a lot to overcome. They did make a game of it, thanks to a goal and assist from veteran Ian Prevost, who scored midway through the middle period. Jeffrey Wong, with his team-leading third goal, closed the gap with a powerplay tally in
the third. But Andrew Strelezki counted his second of the night, this time into an empty net, to wrap up the scoring and end any rally talk. “We worked extremely hard but those quick goals to start the period really hurt,” remarked Grandview coach Stefan Matic. “We’re struggling to put the puck in the net, but we did hit three or four crossbars.We’re getting closer.”

SFU tops Slippery Rock
Freshman forward Connor Glennon scored in the 43rd minute of the game to secure Simon Fraser a 1-0 victory over Slippery Rock University, giving the team its fourth win in a row. Glennon scored off a header from inside the box with two minutes left in the first half. Defender Michael North drew the assist, poking the ball through two defenders, and crossing it into the box where Glennon
was ready to bump it behind the Rock goalkeeper Jonathon Sharp. SFU captain Adam Jones nearly scored in the opening minute, taking a dangerous shot from just outside the box which Sharp was able to stop. Midfielder Mamadi Camara was impressive controlling the ball through the midfield and outplaying the Slippery Rock defense.

LISTINGS • NEW HOMES • OPEN HOUSES
Back-to-school week sees slow home sales In a week pre-occupied with the Labour Day stat holiday and kids returning to school, there were fewer home sales in the Burnaby and Tri-Cities region during the week of September 4 to 10 than even the quiet previous week.
Of the total 78 home sales, 31 of those went for over asking price – but only five of those were detached houses. Just two of the 20 detached houses sold for for exactly list price, while the remaining 13 all saw their prices negotiated down.
Attached home sales in the region totalled 58 transactions, as registered by September 19, down from 85 the previous week. Those 58 sales comprised 43 condo-apartment units and 15 townhomes, row homes, half-duplexes or other attached properties.
Despite the sluggish detached market, the median price of those 20 home sales was higher than the previous week, at $1,375,000. This median ranges from $2,225,000 in Burnaby South (calculated from just two sales) to $975K across the six sales in Port Coquitlam.
There were 20 detached home sales across the region – eight of them in Coquitlam, six in Port Coquitlam, two in Burnaby North, two in Burnaby South, one in Burnaby East and one in Port Moody.
The most expensive single-family home to sell during that week was unsurprisingly in Burnaby South – a 2010-completed, custom-built home in the Forest Glen neighbourhood, with six bedrooms, seven bathrooms and a grand foyer with sweeping staircase. It sold after 27 days

on market for $2,650,000, which is $48K under list price. Burnaby South was also the location of the priciest attached home sale – as in the past few weeks, this was a contract assignment for an asyet-unbuilt Metrotown condo. This particular residence is in the upcoming Imperial building by Amacon, and is a 1,834-square-foot, 26th-floor luxury unit with a 1,541-square-foot wrap-around roof terrace and amazing views. After an eyebrow-raising 235 days listed, it finally sold for its asking price of $1,995,900. The same area of Burnaby saw the toppriced attached-house sale. A gorgeous, three-year-old half-duplex in Burnaby’s South Slope sold for $1,658,000, $70K under list, after exactly two weeks.
