Burnaby resident calls KM gift ‘a joke’

First-aid kit from Trans Mountain is intended as part of a public awareness program to promote safety

By Tereza Verenca

A Burnaby resident is calling Kinder Morgan “tasteless” for sending out first-aid kits to residents who live along its pipeline’s right-of-way.

Each year, as part of Trans Mountain’s

public awareness program, the company drops off information about pipeline safety and damage prevention.The packages promote the Call BeforeYou Dig program, and often include a small gift.

This year, that small gift was a household first-aid kit.

Newsnow LOVE WAS IN THE AIR

Have a used wedding dress to sell?

By Cayley Dobie

cdobie@burnabynow.com

Love was definitely in the air at the annual Burnaby wedding show and swap.

The annual event, now in its fifth year, saw an estimated 400 people stop by the Riverway clubhouse last Sunday, according to Christine Musgrave, booking coordinator for the City of Burnaby.

“It was fantastic,” Musgrave said. “Every year, it just gets busier and busier.”

This year’s show and sale featured 46 vendors, and it was so popular that Musgrave had to turn some away.

“I think we could get a few more down the hallways and in the lobby, but we have so many people that want to be a part of it that I’m turning them away,” she said, adding she’s already received several emails inquiring about next year’s show and swap.

There are two categories of vendors included in the event, according to Musgrave; the industry professionals who can take part for a $40 fee, and the swap vendors.

The swap vendors can rent tables for free to sell their own wedding wares and décor.Typically, it’s brides who, after their own weddings, are looking to sell the things they used for their own celebrations, Musgrave said.

“It’s a very affordable show compared to a lot of the bigger wedding shows.We try and make it more of a fun event,” she said, adding admission for guests is also free.

Brides and grooms are invited to bring their families and peruse the different booths and tables.The bar and café at the clubhouse are also open during the event for anyone wanting a refreshment or two.

And the location is perfect, said Musgrave.

“The view is so fantastic, looking over the greens, and there’s a big pond with a fountain. It’s so majestic,” she said. “And it also promotes our buildings within Burnaby and our venues.”

Plans are already underway for next year’s event, which might return sooner rather than later, according to Musgrave.

Anyone wanting to take part in the show and swap as a vendor is asked to email aerentals@ burnaby.ca or call 604-320-2217.

NO HIKE IN RATES

City residents get a break on sewer and water Tereza Verenca

tverenca@burnabynow.com

Burnaby residents can expect a financial reprieve next year.

At Monday night’s meeting, city council approved a zero per cent increase to the city’s sanitary sewer and water utility rates, with services to be maintained at 2017 levels.

The rates cover the costs associated with water delivery and provide funding for operating and capital works.The biggest chunk of the city’s sanitary sewer and waterworks budgets goes to Metro Vancouver,

which treats the region’s water supply and liquid waste.

Noreen Kassam, the City of Burnaby’s director of finance, told the NOW the zero per cent increase is due to “prudent financial planning” by the city.

“We knew there was some really highprofile projects coming down the pike; we just didn’t know when those increases from Metro Vancouver Water District or the Greater Vancouver Sewerage and Drainage District would materialize. And we’re seeing them materialize now; but because we knew there were projects coming down the pike, we were planning well in advance so

that when they did, we would then be able to mitigate any impact to the taxpayers,” she said.

Some of Metro Vancouver’s projects include continuing the expansion of the Annacis wastewater treatment plant and upgrading the Iona wastewater treatment plant.

To cover those costs, Metro Vancouver passes rate increases onto municipalities. Burnaby, however, has enough money in the bank to not pass it onto the taxpayer, added Kassam.

“We’re utilizing what we’ve gathered in the past,” she said, noting one thing that

has helped beef up the city’s reserves and keep rates low is fees coming from secondary suites.

The city’s projected 2018 waterworks utility expenditures total $55.2 million, a decrease of $163,000 compared to 2017.

Fifty-one per cent of the budget goes to Metro Vancouver for drinking water, while the rest is split between investments in water-related infrastructure (33 per cent) and the city’s transmission system (15 per cent).

Next year’s sanitary sewer expenditures are estimated at $44.1 million, an increase Continued on page 10

Safety concerns have been ignored: resident Continued from page 1 People’s concerns about the pipeline’s safety have been ignored, according to Gibson.

“Kinder Morgan has not given us any sort of real comfort or anything about evacuation,” she said. “(SFU) is to shelter in place (in case of an emergency).

To me, I consider it a joke that they would hand that out.

“What about all those elementary schools? (The firstaid kit) doesn’t combat our concerns.To me, I consider it a joke that they would hand that out.”

In an emailed statement, Trans Mountain said: “Our focus when sending out

these packages is providing important safety information to our neighbours.

We are in the process of distributing 6,000 packages, including the first-aid kits, and have received positive feedback. If this individual does not wish to receive the kit moving forward, they can let us know.”

The $7.4-billion project could be delayed by months, according to an affidavit from Michael Davies, Kinder Morgan’s vice-president of operations.

At the moment, Kinder Morgan and the City of Burnaby are at an impasse.

Kinder Morgan alleges the city is stalling the project by not issuing municipal permits, and has asked the National Energy Board (NEB) to intervene to allow it to continue to work.

The NEB will hold oral hearings in Calgary on Nov. 29 and Dec. 4 to decide the matter.

Info package: North Burnaby resident Elan Gibson is calling Kinder Morgan’s gift of a home first-aid kit “a joke.” Kinder Morgan is in the process of sending out 6,000 information packages, something it does every year to promote the Call Before You Dig program.

Given the opposition the $7.4-billion pipeline project has faced in Burnaby, especially around the risks associated with the tank farm expansion, Gibson says it was a bad PR move.

Bus T-bones crossover in Hastings Street crash Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@burnabynow.om

A transit bus shoved a crossover utility vehicle “a significant distance” during a crash in Burnaby early Friday morning.

The collision, at the intersection of Hastings Street and Sperling Avenue, happened just before 1:30 a.m.

Friday morning.

An articulated 95 BLine bus was heading eastbound on Hastings when it slammed into a black crossover that had turned in front of it, according to

TransLink spokesperson Chris Bryan.

“The vehicle was pushed a significant distance through the intersection and ended up on the sidewalk,” he said.

The driver of the smaller vehicle was taken to Burnaby Hospital with minor injuries.

The bus was in service at the time of the crash with about 15 passengers on board, but neither they nor the driver were hurt, according to TransLink and Burnaby RCMP. “Most left the bus before any transit supervisor

or anybody from emergency health services attended,” Bryan said.

He said he couldn’t comment on the state of the traffic light at the time of the collision.

TransLink and Burnaby RCMP are investigating the accident.

“We always investigate anything of this sort, just to determine whether it was preventable or non-preventable and if there was any actions by the operator that weren’t what you would expect under the circumstances.”

Opinion now OUR VIEW

Winner-take-all system is past its time It’s not what Justin Trudeau would have done in this situation, but we’re pleased to see the NDP inching forward in their bid for electoral reform.

The B.C. Liberals, who seem to have rediscovered ethics at the bottom of last election’s ballot box, criticized the move as a gift to the Green Party, whose three seats resemble a toothpick gamely hold-

ing a massive government sandwich together.

First-past-the-post, the Liberals argue, gives us stable governments.We agree with the statement, but not its implications.

First-past-the-post is a winner-take-all system that makes losers of the electorate who watch politicians eschew compromise for perpetual electioneering.

As the last election showed us, British Columbians don’t agree.We’re left and right wing and environmentally/economically minded and sometimes disenchanted with every name on the ballot.

Our government should mirror that dissension rather than cleaving to a system that allows fewer than half the electorate to select a majority govern-

As with all voting systems, there will be problems with proportional representation. ment.

Governments should be stable, but never stand still. In fact, we seem to see the greatest ethical lapses when the govern-

ment enjoys an over-abundance of job security.

We would also remind the dissenting Liberals that in 2005, 57 per cent of voters supported a new

electoral system.

As with all voting systems, there will be problems with proportional representation. British Columbians who don’t live in Metro Vancouver – whether by necessity or good sense – may feel dissatisfied with the tyranny of the majority.

The only thing worse, of course, is the tyranny of the minority.

MY VIEW KEITH BALDREY

Is it time for the far right to rise?

The NDP seems hellbent on ensuring B.C. won’t see the kind of government headed up in the past by such party premiers as Dave Barrett, Mike Harcourt and Glen Clark ever again.

That’s one takeaway from the NDP government’s absolute determination to change our voting system to a proportional representation model, a change that would prevent the party from having total control over its agenda should it prove victorious in subsequent elections.

And that’s why a number of party stalwarts are scratching their heads, wondering why the NDP would so willingly give up the chance every four years of being in a position of implementing its own policies – and not those forced upon it by other – in favour of electoral reform.

BillTieleman, a veteran NDP activist and commentator, is among those in the party who say the days of an NDP government with a mandate of progress change – as was won by Barrett, Harcourt and Clark and, one could argue, the current Premier John Horgan – “are just about zero” in the future under a proportional representation model, he argues.

“Would we ever see the future equivalent of an Agricultural Land Reserve?

Public auto insurance?

Worker-friendly Labour Code? Snowball’s chance in a very hot place,” he told me.

Here’s the problem: the NDP has never won 50 per cent of the popular vote and in all likelihood never will (only the B.C. Liberals, in

2001, have exceeded the 50 per cent mark).

Under any model of proportional representation, to hold power, the NDP would have to form a coalition with another party (most likely the Green Party) and it would have to accommodate their interests, potentially sacrificing some of their own along the way.

That is not the arrangement in the legislature right now.While the NDP needs the support of the Greens to maintain power, there is no formal coalition agreement (and the Greens, for all intents and purposes, are stuck having to keep the NDP in power until at least July, 2021, since that is the earliest an election under a proportional representation model can take place).

And Tieleman, who successfully led public campaigns against the HST and past attempts at electoral reform and will be doing so again this time around, points to another worrisome scenario (from the NDP’s point of view) that may well take root under a proportional representation model.

He says NDP supporters of proportional representation are mistakenly assuming that such a model would routinely elect left-centre governments, with the NDP taking the lead role.

Not so fast, he warns.

“More likely is a regular diet of right-of-centre governments with a B.C. Liberal-B.C. Conservative coalition, sometimes propped up by new and fringe hard-parties,” he says. “It would be ironic if the B.C. NDP were the author of its own Continued on page 7

Organized by the Burnaby Chamber of Commerce and the Burnaby Arts Council, the goal was to showcase the important partnership between the arts and the business community. “Statistics show that culture can no longer be seen as a superficial part of our economy.

The activities of artists, performers, arts educators, galleries, and so on, generate income in our communities, provide jobs, and contribute directly to our municipal, provincial and federal tax base,” said Minister of Tourism and Culture Darlene Marzari.

Opinionnow Mayor and protesters are ‘hypocrites’ over pipeline

Dear Editor: The mayor of Burnaby is against the Trans Mountain expansion, but has he converted all the Burnaby vehicles to electric and, as a good NDP supporter, he is also against the Site C dam.

Note that B.C., according to the National Energy Board, imports about 10 per cent of our power now. Maybe Mayor Derek Corrigan is looking into horses.

Now we have those protesting the pipeline: Do they have cellphones made out of plastic?

Are the boats they use in the protest wood (unless they are against logging, too)? Most kayaks are plastic, but being against fossil fuels, maybe the boats will be made of seal skins (don’t tell PETA).

The Lower Mainland wants more money from the federal government for transit. Sixty-five per cent of the transfer payments come from Alberta and Saskatchewan; that is money Justin Trudeau needs to give to B.C., and also the $10 billion a year to Quebec, and without this pipeline, that money is needed to pay for all this since the federal government has $25 to $30 billion debt each year.

The First Nations want money, cities want money, and Alberta has it: 65 per cent of the transfer money.

We now import 50 per cent of our oil through the narrow, icy St. Lawrence River with tankers that don’t even meet the new safety requirements needed on the West Coast with no

icebergs.

The protesters are hypocrites like the mayor of Burnaby. Without oil from Trans Mountain, no trucks would run. Without trucks, there would be no food, and we in the Lower Mainland only have about 15 days supply of food; most is on trucks from Alberta and California.

For any reason we lose Trans Mountain, which provides 100 per cent of the fuel to B.C., we would have food shortages in 15 days.

Natural gas is the same, electric power is the same. We are very dependent in the Lower Mainland. We don’t grow enough food. We can’t generate enough power or provide enough gas.

All we produce in the Lower Mainland is garbage, and lots of it. Before we protest, we should look at how vulnerable we are.

Everything we see around us was brought to us by a truck. Everything we see has been mined, came from oil or was farmed.

We create nothing in Burnaby but pollution.

Woman killed in crash Cayley Dobie

cdobie@burnabynow.com

One person is dead and another is battling lifethreatening injuries after a crash on Kensington Avenue Sunday evening.

The accident happened around 6 p.m., when a single vehicle heading north on Kensington between Sakic Way and Lougheed Highway lost control and collided with a tree, according to Burnaby RCMP. The passenger, a 47-yearold woman from Port Coquitlam, was killed in the crash.The driver – a 28-year-old man also from Port Coquitlam – suffered

serious, life-threatening injuries and remains in hospital at this time, according to police.

While the cause of the crash is still under investigation, police believe speed may have been a contributing factor. It’s unclear if the weather may have played a part in the collision as well, said Burnaby RCMP spokesperson Cpl. Daniela Panesar.

“There were some witnesses that suggested that speed was a factor. Of course, with the weather the way it has been, it’s not a good time to be speeding anyways.You need further distances for braking,”

she said It’s still too early to say whether charges are warranted, Panesar added.

“If there’s a criminal element to what occurred, then yes, definitely there could be charges, (but) it’s still under investigation, which is why we’re looking for witnesses,” Panesar said. “That’s always a factor, especially if someone dies.”

Investigators are asking anyone who was in the area at the time of the crash and who hasn’t spoken to police yet to contact Const.

Kalicum with the Burnaby RCMP traffic section or an on-duty traffic services supervisor at 604-646-9999.

Charges expected in stabbing Charges are expected after an altercation between two Burnaby men turned violent early Sunday morning.

Police were called to a house in the 100 block of Ellesmere Avenue near Pandora Street shortly after 1 a.m.When officers arrived,

they found one person suffering from non-life-threatening stab wounds, according to Burnaby RCMP spokesperson Cpl. Daniela Panesar.

The victim, a 25-year-old man, was taken to hospital while the suspect, a 53-yearold man, was arrested at the

scene. Both are Burnaby residents.

Panesar said there is no risk to the public’s safety.

“It was an altercation between two known people,” she added.

The suspect was released after a brief in-custody hearing Monday morning.

City now Pipeline opponent lets his money do the talking SFU prof pulls his business from TD Bank over Kinder Morgan investment – and he’s encouraging others to do the same Tereza Verenca

tverenca@burnabynow.com

After 20 years of doing business with TD Bank, an SFU professor has severed ties with the financial institution in protest of Kinder Morgan’s Trans Mountain expansion project.

TD is one of the major banks (along with Scotiabank, CIBC and RBC, among others) that agreed to underwrite the $7.4-billion pipeline project.

Bob Hackett, who teaches communications at Simon Fraser University, met with the branch manager of the 329 North Rd. location on Nov. 21 to cancel his services.

“It’s a question of trying to send a message, basically, that we don’t want our money or anybody’s money being used to finance the Kinder Morgan pipeline, for

all the reasons so many people oppose it – everything from the risk of oil spills to global climate change,” Hackett, also a member of Burnaby Residents Opposing Kinder Morgan Expansion, told the NOW, adding he’s also pulling out of Scotiabank.

It’s an easy step for people to take

The professor wants others to do the same, he said, to “make clear” there’s financial consequences associated with supporting Alberta’s tar sands. “(There’s) also a reputational cost. Companies and banks do value their reputation, and if they claim their

commitment is to the environment, how do they square that with expanding the Alberta tar sands?” said Hackett.

He encouraged the public to support other institutions like Vancity – that aren’t tied to the pipeline.

“It’s an easy step for people to take,” he said.

In an emailed statement,TD spokesperson Jeff Meerman said the bank appreciates the “diverse views” Canadians have about energy development.

“TD is actively supporting the transition to a lower carbon economy, committing over $12 billion to date in financing and investments.That said,TD is also aware that Canadians will rely on conventional energy sources for several more decades to sustain our economy, create jobs and support a standard of living for our customers and communities,” he wrote. “While Canada is transitioning to cleaner energy sources,TD believes that responsible natural resource development must balance environ-

Local lab researching marijuana’s benefits Medipure Pharmaceuticals hopes to show cannabis molecules can be turned into non-addictive drugs Grant Granger

ggranger@burnabynow.com

A research lab that aims to identify marijuana molecules that can be turned into non-addictive pharmaceutical drugs will soon be open in Burnaby.

The lab is being built by Medipure Pharmaceuticals in a Discovery Parks building on the east side of the B.C. Institute of Technology campus.

The company expects to be moved into the new space by the end of this week, with an official opening of the new lab planned for January.

Medipure plans to scientifically explore the medicinal benefits of cannabis.

“Physicians have known for many, many years there are health benefits from various molecules within this plant, but there’s never really been any significant data.

Everything’s been anecdotal,” said BorisWeiss, chief executive officer of Medipure. “The big, open door was actually to look at this as a pharmaceutical product.

“You’re talking about providing the physician with the opportunity to prescribe something that is not opiate based, that does not have the significant side effects of opiate use, the addiction.”

And, he adds, avoid the need to keep increasing the dosage of the addictive painkillers, eventually rendering them ineffective. If these drugs can become reality it would be a big benefit in the global war against the opiate drug problem, he says.

“How do you solve that?

You solve that by creating

The company is opening a new research lab in Burnaby to help identify marijuana molecules that can be turned into non-addictive pharmaceutical drugs. PHOTO CONTRIBUTED something, at least on a prescription level, that doesn’t hook these people,” said Weiss.

Medipure’s chief scientific officer is Nihar Pandey, who has a doctorate in biochemistry. A few years ago,

he published a paper from research he had done at the University of Ottawa on a compound that was being used to treat diabetes.

He said when his team did testing on animals they noticed the diabetic animals

were anxious. But when they were treated for diabetes and obesity, the anxiety disappeared. So they tried to figure out why and discovered a molecule, known for being a cannabinoid (active compounds found in mari-

juana), that was impacting a receptor in the animals.

When they treated the animals with the cannabinoid molecule they got a good result.

Pandey said, so far, 114 molecules in the cannabis

plant have been identified and categorized. He is confident some “very good results” will come out of the Burnaby lab.

“These molecules are working, they’re not Continued on page 12

Business now ‘We are going to reach some milestones’: Medipure Continued from page 11 addictive,” said Pandey. “We are very much sure we are going to reach some milestones in these areas.”

Pandey added the molecules have the potential to be converted to pharmaceuticals to treat inflammation and skin care conditions.

Research on cannabis is in its infancy, saidWeiss and Pandey, because the drug was illegal and couldn’t, theoretically, be made available for testing since marijuana had been banned all over the world.

“Historically, everybody knew about the potential, but there was no scientific data,” said Pandey.

Weiss said the BCIT building was developed by the provincial government with medical research and innovation in mind. Its HVAC system and infrastructure are conducive to running a research lab.

“Basically, they tried to create an incubator for research and development, and they put it in Burnaby,” saidWeiss. “It’s a great model for research companies.”

Weiss said big pharmaceutical companies have moved away from doing early stage research in-house because it’s expensive when part of a huge operation.

That has opened the door for companies like Medipure, a NorthVancouverbased company started in 2014.

“They found for them to do the same things we do costs eight to 10 times more,” saidWeiss. “So they’ve turned to companies such as Medipure and they say, ‘We will take over once you’ve gotten it past the initial phase, from Phase 1 to Phase 2 trials, and we will come in with our additional capital and additional marketing expertise and manufacture.’ So that’s our (business) model.”

Weiss said the model is gaining credence inside and outside the medical community.The company’s medical director is Dr. John Maynard, who has been chair ofVancouver Coastal Health’s medical advisory committee.

“John is all over this. He

sees opportunity to help people,” saidWeiss. “He’s never been in a commercial entity in his life and he welcomes this with hands and feet in. He’s 100 per cent on board that this is going to make a significant difference medically not only in Canada, but globally.”

The company also met recently withVancouver city councillor Kerry Jang, who is also a psychiatry professor at the UBC faculty of medicine. Mayor Gregor Robertson has put Jang in charge of an opiate task force.

Pandey said the 2,400-square foot lab will initially have four technicians and four research PhDs with an annual operating budget of about $2 million. Renovating the space will cost about $300,000 with the equipment pushing $1 million.

Since it’s a full narcotics research lab – researchers have to be able to compare their results to those of powerful painkillers like Oxycontin – it will be subject to stringent Health Canada security protocols.

Weiss said Medipure is also looking for additional lab space for another project

with a California oncology pharmaceutical company.

Forte Theatre returns to Heritage Christmas Christmas is back at Burnaby Village Museum – and Forte Theatre Society has returned to celebrate the season.

The local company – which was founded in 2013 to provide family-oriented theatre productions and opportunities for amateur theatre artists – is presenting its

fifth Christmas production at the village with its new show Toy of theYear.

The story is about Santa’s newest elf, Susie, rising to the challenge to come up with a new toy. Along the way, she learns some valuable lessons about respect, kindness and the importance of helping others.

“The show ultimately teaches us that the most important attribute anyone can possess, whether you be a big elf, little elf or somewhere in between, is kindness and respect for their fellow human being,” says a press release about the show.

It’s directed by Burnaby’s

Nancy von Euw, an awardwinning director and actor who owns her own coaching and consulting business, Acting Out. Featured as Susie is Caitlyn Bairstow, a voice actress who’s joining the show for her first onstage performance. She’ll be appearing alongside Cole Sheehan-

Klassen as Santa, with Beverly Field, Emily Makudi, Peter Ricafrente and Naomi Wong.

The stage manager is Leopoldo Vieytes.

Toy of theYear is onstage at Brookfield Hall on Saturdays and Sundays, with four shows daily: at 2, 3:30, 5 and 6:30 p.m.

“There’s a simple way to be in the know about local construction.”

HOLIDAY OPEN HOUSE!

Katrina Chen, MLA Burnaby-Lougheed Cordially invites you to her Holiday Open House and Grand Opening of her Constituency Office.

Holiday Open House

A SPECIAL VISITOR A rare treat for the Lower Mainland, although not unheard of, is the whitewinged crossbill, a redheaded finch with unique identifying white patches on its wings. Like many others this fall, the crossbill was admitted to Wildlife Rescue at Burnaby Lake after striking a window during its migration, which left it bleeding and disoriented. After several weeks in care, this bird saw a full recovery and was sent out to continue on its journey south. Take note of the fantastic “cross” bill, which allows the bird the advantage of easily pulling out seeds from conifer cones for food. PHOTO CONTRIBUTED

Destination Honda Grand Opening

SPONSORED CONTENT

By Michelle Hopkins

What does it take to thrive in the automotive industry for more than three decades? The Destination Auto Group should know. With five dealerships, including three in Burnaby, the family-owned company has built a stellar reputation for providing excellence in both customer service and satisfaction.

Now, there is another reason to celebrate.

Destination Auto Group unveiled its newly relocated Destination Honda Burnaby dealership. The premier boutique auto dealer held its Grand Opening November 15th and it was a resounding success.

The soiree was attended by Burnaby’s Mayor Derek Corrigan, the President and CEO of Honda Canada Dave Gardner, as well as several local dignitaries, VIPs, family and colleagues. Guests were welcomed with a classical 4-string quartet and hors d’oeuvres, before a ribbon-cutting ceremony, Taiko drum and calligraphy performances. Invitees also had the opportunity to view a 2018 Hon-

da Civic Type-R alongside a 1977 Honda Civic.

“We are raising the bar by offering our guests with more choices all under one roof,” says Adil Ahamed, Managing Director of Destination Auto Group. “We offer the same excellence in customer service people have come to expect from Honda, while adding a new dimension.”

The site is much bigger than the dealership’s previous location on Hastings Street and is much more modern, featuring a host of new amenities.

“This facility is much brighter and spacious,” says Ahamed. “We reconfigured it to make better use of the space and introduced state of the art equipment to give our guests the best experience they can have.”

The contemporary 41,000-square foot building is much better equipped to serve the growing needs of existing and potential new clients. Its expansive upscale 12-car showroom is filled with a selection of new and used Honda models to choose from.

But it doesn’t stop there. The award-

winning brand’s after-sale service is second to none. With a total of 16 service bays, including two service drive through lanes that can accommodate nine guests, this bright new service workshop offers added-value services. While waiting, customers are invited to relax or work in its cappuccino bar and lounge, which features comfortable seating, flat screen TVs and WiFi. The drive-through lanes, dubbed the Drive, will offer express oil change, diagnostic checks such as tire tread and wheel alignment, and more - a full compliment of auto services while you wait.

With knowledgeable, professionally trained staff to serve you, expect the unexpected at Destination Honda.

“Our staff have all been factory trained to Honda’s high standards of excellence,” Ahamed says, adding that the store will employ up to 100 staff members within the next few months.

Destination Auto Group has been providing Honda guests with exceptional service to match the outstanding quality of its vehicles.

This year marks the 30th anniversary that the

family-run company has been in partnership with Honda Canada, through its acquisition of Kingsway Honda in Vancouver in 1987.

Its commitment doesn’t end with its satisfied customers. Destination Auto Group is equally dedicated to the communities it serves. Each year, it sponsors a host of organizations and events such as: BCIT Student Association, Festival of Lights at Brentwood Town Centre, a Fundraiser providing much-needed money to the “Boots For Kids” program, Burnaby Mayor’s Annual Golf Tournament, and the 11th Annual Female Hockey Remembrance Day Tournament.

Discover for yourself what all the excitement is about. Destination Burnaby Honda is conveniently located at 4278 Lougheed Highway, Burnaby. For more information, call 604-294-2111, or visit http://www.destinationhonda.ca/.

By: Michelle Hopkins Cloverdale’s origins began as a rural agricultural community back in the mid-1800s. The rich history of this sought -after Surrey enclave is kept alive in the quaint Cloverdale Village.

In the heart of this historic hamlet, with its unique heritage buildings, is where well-known, award-winning local developer RDG Management presents its newest project Crimson.

Crimson is a boutique collection of 59 timeless modern farmhouse inspired three and four-bedroom homes. The homes come from the same developer who brought Cloverdale the sold out and award winning The Ridge at Bose Farms condominium project.

The homes’ architecture reflects that classic country charm of yesteryear - with its steeply arched rooflines, hardi board siding, wood accents and white picket fences.

Designed by award-winning The Creative Designworks, the three storey homes, ranging from 1383 to 1436 square feet, offer the latest in contemporary finishes. Crimson features the choice of two designer colour schemes, nine-foot ceilings, wide plank wood laminate flooring throughout main, and ensuites with quartz countertops, large tiles on the floor and surround, and double vanities.

“The first thing that strikes you about the homes is their great layout; Crimson is designed for modern young families, including side-by-side garages for all 3 and 4 bedroom layouts says Melanie Themmen, Licensed Realtor Fifth Avenue.

“Crimson is in the heart of Surrey’s most historic neighbourhood, steps to the shops at Cloverdale Village and close to great schools such as Cloverdale Traditional Elementary and Lord Tweedsmuir Secondary.”

The well-appointed, country-inspired kitchens come complete with a stainless-steel appliance package (Whirlpool Appliance package, including French door refrigerator), traditional white Shaker wood cabinets (or modern wood grain and grey cabinetry), classic farmhouse kitchen sink, Chimney stainless hood fan and quartz countertops complimented by ceramic tile backsplash.

For the eco-conscious buyers, the bright and airy residences offer several energy efficiency and smart details, such as natural gas forced air furnace and hot water tanks, plus double glazed thermal framed windows and patio doors.

To encourage a sense of community, the Crimson Clubhouse will be the perfect place for neighbours and friends to gather. It is showcased by an entertainment lounge with full kitchen, which opens onto a porch offering a child’s play area and barbeque with seating.

“The clubhouse will feature an upper games loft space as well,” says ThemmenSquires.

Currently, Cloverdale is one of the fastest growing communities in the province. For young families and outdoor enthusiasts, there are more than 35 parks in the area, several athletic fields, Cloverdale Recreational Centre and Rink.

Cloverdale is also home to one of the oldest rodeos in Canada, The Cloverdale Rodeo, as well as family friendly events like the Blueberry Festival, Canada Day, The Bose Family Maze and Christmas Light Parade.

Today, it is also easier to get anywhere in the Lower Mainland, whether it’s quick mass transit access to Vancouver or other destinations, big brand shopping next door in Langley, or enjoy Cloverdale’s rural landscape, with its farms and stables.

With only 59 homes and prices starting in the low $630,000’s Crimson is expected to sell out fast. There is still time to pre-register. Crimson’s presentation centre and vignettes are open by appointment only, at 5940 176th A Street, Surrey.

For more information or to pre-register, call 778-547-2122 or visit www.crimsoncloverdale.com. Occupancy is anticipated as early as February 2019.

Trendy handcrafted items by local Burnaby mother and daughter team

O

nce winter rolls around and the weather is frigid, cozy gifts for Christmas are a great idea.

Staying warm and bundling up is a natural transition when it gets cold out. Why not give a loved one something they can use to escape the harsh weather?

For those amongst us who are good with knitting needles, they can create beautifully knitted gifts to give for the holiday season. For many, nothing says I love you more than something that someone you care for has weaved together. But what if knitting isn’t your thing?

Well, you can still give a gift of knitting with Kitten Caboodle.

These aren’t your grandma’s knitted gifts, though! These are trendy and beautifully designed

cowls (think circle scarves) as well as toques that anyone would love to wear and own, in fashionable hues of grey, burgundy and purple. Both are made of a combination of wool and acrylic yarn so that you stay cozy without feeling itchy.

Not only that, Amanda Coutts and her mother Lynda Coutts handcraft beading bracelets and long necklaces out of an array of multi-coloured stones.

Put a smile on your loved one’s face this holiday season with this one-of-a-kind jewelery.

Amanda Coutts rocking one of her knitted circle scarves

Just in time for Christmas, Lynda is creating unique round ornaments for your tree made out of bits of fabric, as well as placemats. These are extremely popular around this festive time of year.

The warm snuggly feeling you get when you give someone a gift is one of the best parts of the holiday season. But imagine how much warmer and more snuggly you’ll feel when the gifts you give are handmade by a local artisan?

This holiday season, warmth can be shared when you order from Kitten Caboodle.

Gift cards to Uncle Fatih’s Pizza make a great stocking stuffer

P

izza: the glue that holds our life together — it seems that pizza is one of those few foods that’s universally loved by everyone. Why does everyone love pizza so much? That’s easy … Whether you are five or 55, that combination of salty, savoury toppings, dough and melted cheese is simply one of Earth’s best guilty pleasures.

Who doesn’t have a love affair with these pies? Ever since Ancient Rome, voracious aficionados have loved these round pies. One of the most popular is the Margherita—a simple classic topped with tomato sauce, mozzarella cheese and basil leaves, mimicking the red, white and green colors of the Italian flag, said to be created by Neapolitan chef Raffaele Esposito to

celebrate a visit to the city by Queen Margherita of Savoy in 1889.

Well, in the Brentwood neighbourhood, Uncle Fatih’s Pizza is a must for the pizza-obsessed on your list.This pizzeria, with locations across the Lower Mainland, has loyal fans who come regularly to satisfy their craving.

With people looking for an original stocking stuffer idea, gift cards for Uncle Fatih’s Pizza are the answer.

Here, the pizzas combine rustic, traditional ingredients, never frozen, just like Mama used to make. Healthy too, they are chock full of vegetables and easy on the cheese, making for a satisfying choice for those pizza connoisseurs prepared to have their taste buds begging for more.

What a present. The smell of pizza is just so delicious!

You can smell the heat radiating off the pizza and the aroma of all those different toppings; and the pizza looks amazing!

Your gift card can purchase those sinfully delicious flatbreads with a choice of dipping sauces – everything from its specialty meat pizzas to vegetarian, to create your own, with toppings like artichokes, chorizo, Italian sausage, sun-dried tomatoes and more.

So, if your loved one is passionate about fresh baked crust, sweet and tangy tomatoes, gooey high-quality cheese, perfectly seasoned toppings, and other fresh ingredients, then Uncle Fatih’s Pizza gift card is every pizza lover’s dream.There are even pickup specials!

AS WE AGE Stay safe and prevent falls Tereza Verenca

tverenca@burnabynow.com

Every 10 minutes, a senior in B.C. is hospitalized because of a fall.

Every year, one in three seniors will have at least one tumble, with that number going up to one in two for anyone 80 years and older.

Across the province, falls are

You really have to think about how you use the space …

the number 1 cause of injury-related deaths in seniors.

To mitigate falls, Fraser Health is encouraging the aging population and caregivers to take preventative

measures.

Ashley Kwon, coordinator of patient safety and injury prevention, shared a few tips with the NOW about making a home safer (the home is the most common place for older adults to fall).

“You really have to think about how you use the space, and that goes for how someone else might use the space, ... then making some small changes,” she said.

In common spaces like living rooms and bedrooms, Kwon suggested clearing walkways of cables and anything that could be a tripping hazard.

Lighting is another thing to keep in mind, she added.

“It’s important to think about what happens when the lights don’t turn on, in power outages and that kind of thing. Consider things like flashlights.”

Celebrating Seniors

Burnaby’s Mulberry PARC home is now a living wage employer A company that operates retirement homes in Metro Vancouver has become the only one in its field to offer a living wage.

Last month, PARC Retirement Living, which operates the Mulberry Parc seniors’ residence on Acorn Avenue, announced it had received its living wage certification.

A living wage is the hourly amount a family needs to cover basic expenses, including food, clothing, rent, child care, transportation and small

to all employees and people employed by contractors or subcontractors who perform regular services directly or indirectly for the company.

“Social responsibility is important to us,” she said.

“We build community, and our workplace is a community. It embraces residents, employees and neighbours.”

PARC also owns and operates three seniors’ homes on the North Shore and is building another one in White Rock.

We build community, and our workplace is a community savings for unexpected illness or emergencies.

The calculation is based on a two-parent family with two children and each parent working full time.

The current living wage for Metro Vancouver is $20.62 an hour.

“We recognize that paying a living wage is

a critical investment in the company’s long-term prosperity by fostering a dedicated, skilled and healthy workforce,” said Hilary Statton, PARC’s vice-president of operations and human resources, in a press release.

Statton noted PARC’s living wage policy applies

Being aware of “transitions” is key, too. For example, where a tile floor meets carpet or where there are stairs. Kwon recommended marking the edges of steps with a contrasting colour, similar to how some curbs

are painted in bright yellow.

“If you think about it, people are already having to balance on one leg and then the other as they’re going up and down the stairs,” she said of the challenges a senior could face. “Another big one for stairways (is) making sure there’s sturdy handles, preferably on both

sides of the stairwell.”

Kwon noted the tips are not only useful for seniors living in their own homes, but for anyone considering moving into a residential care facility.

Knights show heart, character in semifinal Injuries to STM captains create opportunity that defending champion Terry Fox takes to B.C. final

By Dan Olson

dolson@burnabynow.com

In a game seeded with emotion and purpose, the St.Thomas More Knights left everything they had on the B.C. Place turf Saturday.

Although they fell 28-21 to the Terry Fox Ravens in the B.C. Subway Bowl semifinal, the Knights proved to be a team of character and heart in an emotional championship-calibre season.

Their only loss of the season was their last one, but they did it while battling to the end.

With offensive powerhouse Tyler Eckert limited to defensive duties after missing nearly three weeks of practice and games due to an illness, and provincial Defensive MVP Sam Steele knocked from the game in the second quarter with concussion-like symptoms, it’s any wonder the Ravens didn’t win in a romp.

Instead, they had to fend off a furious second-half rally by STM and needed a standout effort from quarterback Jevaun Jacobsen to advance to B.C. AAA final on Saturday (7 p.m. at BC Place) against the New Westminster Hyacks.

“I think it was their never-quit attitude that impressed me most,” STM coach Steve De Lazzari said of his own players, who carried a heavy heart over the last half of the season following the death of long-time coach Bernie Kully. “Even right down to the last defensive stand, when the huddle broke it was still ‘Onetwo-three Kully!’They were playing for something bigger than themselves, and that’s why it was so emotional for them at the end.”

De Lazzari took on the head coaching duties last spring after Kully was diagnosed with cancer of the esophagus, and he credits the players for coming together and withstanding a lot of tough opponents after the devastating news last September, four games into the season.

Although they defeated Notre Dame 10 days ago without the services of Eckert – who averaged 132 yards a game rushing this season, scoring 13 times – the Knights found it difficult to gain

much traction against Fox, who opened the scoring early in the first quarter on a Jacobsen touchdown.

A pair of turnovers – an interception

by Michael Simone inside the 20-yard line, and a fumble recovery by Jonah Fridfinnson – didn’t produce any points as the Ravens’ young but large defensive line hemmed in STM’s running game.

“They didn’t break.They wilted a little bit but didn’t break,” remarked Fox co-coach Tom Kudaba of his defence.

When Steele was pulled from the game after Fox’s Cade Cote rambled 84 yards to make it 14-0, STM found itself in unfamiliar territory.

Steele, the B.C. Most Valuable Defensive Player of theYear, had been called

over to the sidelines moments earlier after slowly getting up from a hard hit.

Following Cote’s TD, a Knights trainer walked him to the dressing room for concussion testing, and he didn’t return.

“You can’t take chances with (head injuries),” said De Lazzari. “I think he would have kept going out there, that’s the kind of player and person he is.”

On the first possession of the second half, the Knights got to the one-yard line off a Doug Flutie-esque pass from Dario Ciccone, who finished the drive with a one-yard push.

It didn’t stay 14-7 long, however, as Jacobsen – who slid over to the running back position after teammate Jaden Continued on page 34

Burnaby Central pushes eventual finalist to a draw

They put their best boot forward and came just a goal shy from a final four berth.

The Burnaby Central Wildcats demonstrated resilience and skill at last week’s B.C. senior boys AAA soccer championships at Burnaby Lake West, winding up 10th overall after playing five games in three days.

They wrapped up the tourney on the shortside of a 2-1 score against Sardis on Saturday.

Underdogs the entire way as Lower Mainland No. 3, Burnaby Central were slot-

ted into a pool that included Fraser Valley champion Panorama Ridge,Vancouver Island No. 2 Oak Bay, and North Peace.

Losing 1-0 to Oak Bay in the opener, the Wildcats responded with an explosive 11-1 victory over North Peace.

It all came down to their final round-robin match against undefeated Panorama Ridge.The Surrey school held on against a diligent Burnaby attack for a 1-1 draw, earning the pool’s ticket into the final four.

The Wildcats, meanwhile, started the consolation

bracket with a 1-0 victory over Okanagan Mission, lining them up against Sardis in the ninth-place game.

Burnaby Central’s Filip Rakic was named to the Commissioners 11.

Panorama Ridge, meanwhile, continued rolling right to the final.

Coquitlam’s Dr. Charles Best captured the B.C. title, exacting revenge for a Fraser Valley final loss by beating Panorama Ridge 2-1.

Quinn Desaulniers, who scored both goals in the final, was named tourney MVP and picked up the Golden Boot award.

STM sr. girls set for last spike at AA provincials

Muscle memory is a highly effective tool when it comes to athletic tests.

Don’t discount emotional memory, however.

The St.Thomas More senior girls volleyball team start the B.C. AA championships tomorrow (Thursday) in Vanderhoof, looking to right a wrong and finish the season on a great note.

A loss in the Lower Main-

land final – 2-1 to archrivalYork House – bumped the Knights from second to fifth in provincial ranking, and left a sour taste in the players’ mouths, head coach Becky Lang said.

“We’re hoping to put a disappointing finish at the Lower Mainlands behind us,” said Lang. “The girls are really excited and were so excited most got here be-

fore I did.”

The loss came with some controversy in the tie-breaking set. Deadlocked 14-14, what Lang described as a “terrible call” handedYork the momentum they needed to seal the win and the title.

During their previous two encounters, STM prevailed.

“We played really well and won every game 2-0 up until the final,” said Lang.

They defeated Notre Dame in the semifinal.The Knights, who rolled 6-0 through the regular season, were led by league MVP Elizabeth Bilawey.

The provincial draw placed them in a pool with host Nechako Valley,Valleyview and Fraser Valley No. 3 Langley Christian, who had spent time ranked first overall.

“That game (against Langley) is definitely going to be a strong test,” said

Ciccone would get the Knights to within seven again, two minutes into the final quarter, by punching across a three-yard TD after a long pass set the table.

But Jacobsen took it into the end zone on second-and-goal at the one to quell STM’s momentum.

While STM’s David Osho made it a one-TD contest again with 2:25 left in the game, a Knights comeback just wasn’t in the cards.Terry Fox, meanwhile, took advantage of the Knights’ injuries and showed the kind of foot-

ball IQ that had garnered them the pre-season No. 1 ranking.

“We made maybe a few mistakes on defence, maybe two, three plays the whole game, and we did a pretty good job aside from that,” said Kudaba. “They were obviously shorthanded without Eckert at full health.

They were also without Steele for the most part, and that kind of hurt them on defence.They played with a lot of emotion – give credit to them.”

Unfortunately, some of Fox’s younger players sparked a melee after the game by taunting Knights fans, but De Lazzari said, while it was extremely disappointing to see he appreciated the Ravens coaches and captains approaching them to apologize once the

teams had decompressed a bit in their dressing rooms.

It was a moment no one wanted to end the season on.

“There was so much raw emotions, but our boys handled it the way I’d have wanted it,” said the Knights coach.

He said, entering the game with the understanding Eckert wasn’t able to contribute on both sides of the ball, plus the calibre of opponent across the way, had people hedging their bets.

“I was cautiously optimistic but just knowing the weapons (Fox) had and what we could do, I thought we could beat them without (Eckert). Once the game began, I was thinking this was going to be really, really tough.”

Looking for a new home? Start here.

Tri-Cities the New Hottest Region for Home Hunters Interest among online searchers in properties in the Tri-Cities has skyrocketed year over year, according to online real estate portal REW. The home search and real estate news website reports user views per listing in North Coquitlam nearly tripling in a year, while interest in Port Moody Centre and Central Port Coquitlam nearly doubled.

Comparing user activity in 52 larger markets across Greater Vancouver in Q3 2017 with Q3 2016, REW found that North Coquitlam, which is directly served by the new Evergreen Line SkyTrain extension, was the area to see the highest rise in views per home listing, up 190%. In July 2017 alone, user interest in North Coquitlam was up a massive 489% year over year.

Port Moody Centre and Central Port Coquitlam were second- and third-placed of the 52 markets, in terms of increase in user views, up 91% and 89% respectively in Q3 2017 vs 2016. Central Coquitlam took fifth place, up 65% during the same period.

Higher sales and prices The online activity seems to be more than idle interest; it is translating into high demand and rising home prices in the region. According to

MLS® data, median detached home selling prices across the Tri-Cities soared by 17% from September 2016 to September 2017. Townhomes and other attached unit sale prices also rose by 17% over the same period, and condo sale prices jumped 27%. In Port Moody alone, median condo selling prices were up 46% year over year.

Why the sudden increase in Tri-Cities real estate activity?

Attached Detached

“We think there are several interconnected factors playing into this trend,” said Joannah Connolly, editor of REW.ca/News. “First, the Evergreen SkyTrain line opening in late 2016 made the Tri-Cities area more favourable to commuters working downtown and in Burnaby.

Second, despite the new transit links, the region still offers relative affordability compared with Burnaby or Vancouver, and we’re seeing a ripple effect as buyers look further east to get into home ownership.

There is a also huge amount of new development under way to cater for this demand, with Port Moody expecting to add around 13,00015,000 new residents to its 35,000 population in the next few years.

And we also think that people from all over the region are waking up to the great lifestyle that these cities have to offer.”

Job opportunity ads are salary based and do not require an investment.
