Fedbailoutwon’tstopfight:Horgan

Federal government to spend a whopping $4.5 billion to buy the Trans Mountain pipeline system Lauren Boothby

lboothby@burnabynow.com

Premier John Horgan said he intends to move forward with B.C.’s court case on regulating oil transported through the province, despite the federal government’s plan to buy the Trans Mountain pipeline and expansion project.

Kinder Morgan announced this morning that the Government of Canada will buy the controversial Trans Mountain pipeline system and the expansion project for $4.5 billion, and work with the board to seek a third-party buyer through

July 22, 2018.

As part of the agreement, the feds have agreed to fund the resumption of TMEP planning and construction work by guaranteeing TMEP’s expenditures under a separate federal recourse credit facility until the transaction closes.

All the parties involved expect to close the transaction late in the third quarter or early in the fourth quarter of 2018, subject to KML shareholder and applicable regulatory approvals.

But today’s announcement doesn’t change the provincial government’s plans, said Horgan, because

the court case is not tied to a specific project, but rather to the ability of the province to prevent an oil spill.

“I’m concerned that there could be catastrophic consequences of a diluted bitumen spill in British Columbia, regardless of the owner of pipeline, regardless of the owner of the railcars,” he said during a conference call from Victoria Tuesday morning.

Now that the pipeline will be federally owned, that means the federal government, including Minister of Finance Bill Morneau, is “totally accountable” for the project, from both an eco-

nomic and environmental standpoint, Horgan said.

“Mr. Morneau will have to answer to federal taxpayers who also happen to be British Columbians, and Newfoundlanders, and people from theYukon, about how he’s disposing of their hard-fought tax dollars,” he said. “If he believes in building a pipeline to export raw materials to other jurisdictions to create jobs and wealth in other places, he’ll have to be accountable for that.

Meanwhile in Alberta, Premier Rachel Notley celebrated the purchase. Alberta’s ban on B.C. wine, and a law to restrict oil to British Columbia, have worked.

Her government, too, will be spending up to $2 bil-

lion on the project once it is complete.

“We said we would meet the deadline, we’ve met the deadline.We said we would provide certainty, we are providing certainty.We said we would get the pipeline

built, and we are getting it built,” she said at a press conference. “We will not stop until the job is done, and in the meantime, to all Albertans: pick up those tools, folks.We have a pipeline to build.”

Protesters vow to ‘physically’ intervene News that the feds will buy the Trans Mountain pipeline system has groups promising to step up protests

Lauren Boothby

lboothby@burnabynow.com

Opponents of the Trans Mountain pipeline are not giving up following Tuesday’s announcement that the federal government will purchase the Trans Mountain pipeline and the expansion for $4.5 billion.

Members of the ongoing protest groups Protect the Inlet (the watch house), Camp Cloud and the Justin Trudeau Brigade all indicated they would continue to oppose the project, regardless of who owns it.

The three groups, as well as Burnaby Residents Opposing Kinder Morgan Expansion, have been regularly demonstrating in different ways at Trans Mountain’s two Burnaby facilities over the last few months.

The announcement is only reinvigorating the Justin Trudeau Brigade, a group that has been mostly inactive since the B.C. Supreme Court issued an injunction specifically naming them in March. Early Friday morning, the group is planning on enforcing their own “People’s Injunction,” signed by more than 140 people – many who live in Burnaby’s Westridge and Forest Grove neighbourhoods – demanding that work on the pipeline expansion stop immediately.

“We’re going to physically, directly intervene and stop the destruction, starting on Friday.” David Mivasair of the Justin Trudeau Brigade told the NOW. “It doesn’t matter if it’s the Canadian government or profit-making organization, we can directly, phys-

CAMP CLOUD: Makeda Martin, who has been staying at the Camp Cloud protest site, says its members will continue to fight. PHOTOLAUREN BOOTHBY ically stop it.” In small groups of three or four, the group plans on blocking workers and trucks from entering or leaving the facility, but they will leave if they are threatened with arrest.

Will George, a member of the Tsleil-Waututh Nation who is leading the protests organized by Protect the Inlet (the watch house) on Burnaby mountain, says

his groups’ resistance will continue. By press deadline, further protests organized by this group were expected in Vancouver on Tuesday evening.

“This changes nothing, in fact, we’re going to have to work even harder to continue relaying that message to Justin Trudeau and his government,” he told the NOW. “It’s unaccepta-

ble for him to spend taxpayer dollars on it, especially $4.5 billion when all across Canada there is no clean drinking water for most (Indigenous) nations. It’s unacceptable for him to spend money in that way, especially if he wants to be a climate leader and respect reconciliation.”

In a way, protests against the pipeline appeared to

‘They’re both principled women’ Continued from page 1 Officers were seen approaching Dykstra and Hutchings that morning to inform them they were violating an injunction from the Supreme Court of B.C. that prevents people from coming within five metres of the two Trans Mountain terminals and from blocking work from being completed.

Patti Powell, who is Hutchings’ sister, said the two women were compelled by their beliefs to protest.

“They’re both principled women who know and believe this is a degradation against the safety and the integrity of this part of the world,” she told the NOW. “Both Laurel and Lini are not grandstanders at all.They’re both quite quiet and introverted people, and they don’t seek attention a lot.

When they come out and do an action like this, they do it with a lot of thought and consideration and conviction.”

Rev. Emilie Smith, the parish priest at St. Barnabas Anglican Church in New Westminster, said the two women were protesting because of their religious beliefs.

“I think it’s an act of faith. I think people should know they are doing this out of their deep Christian faith and need to protect the planet,” she said.

have had their intended effect, George said. “Ultimately Kinder Morgan finds it a poor investment for them and their shareholders, it’s a poor investment for our taxpayer dollars too,” he said.

At Camp Cloud, the protest camp is expected to remain and operate as usual, says Makeda Martin, who was staying at the camp on

Tuesday morning.

“Water is life.We can’t drink gasoline, we can’t use it to grow our food, we can’t use it to replace all this oldgrowth forest and all these non-renewable resources that we continue to consume like Pac Men,” she told the NOW. “We will continue to fight for this land.We are the stewards of this land.”

By the numbers

More than 200 people arrested More than 200 people have now been arrested in protests against Kinder Morgan’s pipeline expansion at the two Trans Mountain terminals in Burnaby.

On Friday, two protesters were arrested at both the Westridge marine and Burnaby Mountain terminals, bringing the total up to 202. The vast majority of arrests were related to violating the B.C. Supreme Court injunction that prohibits protesters from setting up blockades, from interfering with work at the terminals, and from going within five metres of the property.

Numbers of permits required Nearly 1,000 provincial permits required to build the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion, many which involve First Nation consultations, have yet to be approved by the B.C. government.

A total of 1,191 permits are required, and only 220 have been approved. Another 756 have been submitted to permitting agencies, and 536 permit applications are being reviewed.

There are another 435 permits that have yet to be submitted.

Road pricing costs too high: BBOT

Burnaby Board of Trade president says any mobility pricing should be as revenue neutral as possible Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

Mobility pricing could help clear up traffic congestion in the Lower Mainland, but the prices suggested in a recent report are too high, according to the Burnaby Board of Trade.

The final report of the Mobility Pricing Independent Commission presented to TransLink and the Mayors’ Council last Thursday said the mobility pricing models it explored during its eight-month study would cost drivers an average of between $3 and $8 per day to get around Metro Vancouver.

“It’s a significant amount, and I think it’s more than we were hoping to see,” BBOT president Paul Holden told the NOW. The commission had been tasked by TransLink and the Mayors’ Council

last July with studying the idea of a regional road usage charging system.

BBOT struck its own task force to look into the issue in February and released a report Thursday, outlining seven principles the local business community thinks should underpin any future mobility pricing model.

Key among them is the idea mobility pricing should be as revenue neutral as possible.The commission has missed the mark on that point, according to Holden.

“It seems as if it’s a mix of congestion relief and revenue generation, and that’s not what we were hoping for,” he said.

The commission estimates annual net revenue from the two mobility pricing models it studied would range between $1 billion and $1.6 billion – money the commission proposes could pay for transit and

tem would be mitigated for companies who have multiple vehicles on the road and have little choice about where and when they have to drive for business.

Besides some shortcomings, however, Holden said the recommendations of the commission generally line up with BBOT’s seven priorities: congestion, cost neutrality, time-of-day pricing, support for business, a regional approach, integration of new technology and accountability.

Holden said mobility pricing has the potential to reduce traffic congestion, which costs the region an estimated $500 million to $1.2 billion by slowing the movement of people and goods and services, and by acting as a drag on economic activity generally, according to BBOT’s report.

But it’s got to be done right, Holden said, so he’s

not unhappy TransLink and the Mayors’ Council decided to share the report with the federal and provincial governments and refer it to staff for more research and followup.

(TransLink has also been asked to continue consulting the public and stakeholders on the proposal.)

“I don’t think anyone’s suggesting that we want to be waiting decades for this,” Holden said, “but I think a reasonable wait period is appropriate to make sure it’s done properly.”

BBOT will also look to be at the table as the process moves forward, according to Holden.

“Whatever mechanism or whatever groups are put together to investigate this further, we certainly want to make sure that we’re a part of it to represent the interests of our business community.”

B.C. chamber adopts Burnaby-based tax protest

The Burnaby Board of Trade’s four-point action plan on the employer health tax was endorsed by delegates at the annual general meeting of the B.C. Chamber of Commerce and will be adopted as official policy of the provincial chamber.

Representatives from chambers of commerce and boards of trade from across B.C. voted to adopt the BBOT’s position calling for the employer health tax to be cancelled and proposing four fixes should it still go ahead.

The BBOT’s position calls for four signif-

icant changes to be made to the employer health tax should the provincial government continue its implementation.

The BBOT wants to postpone the tax until 2020 so it coincides with the removal of MSP premiums or establish a process to allow businesses and non-profit organizations that pay MSP premiums on behalf of their employees to apply for an exemption to the tax.

The resolution also asks to increase the payroll exemption threshold (currently $500,000) to allow for more small busi-

nesses and small non-profit organizations to be exempt.The third point is to ensure the employer health tax rates are applied incrementally, so that the first $500,000 of payroll is exempt regardless of the total size of the overall payroll.

The BBOT also wants to index the payroll exemption thresholds to inflation by linking annual increases in the thresholds to the Consumer Price Index.

“The Burnaby Board of Trade has several concerns with this new payroll tax, and we want it scrapped,” said Paul Holden, BBOT

president and CEO. “We’re happy that our colleagues in the chamber of commerce network across the province agreed with us and adopted our position this weekend.

Currently, businesses are looking at a year of double-taxation in 2019 when the tax is brought in while MSP premiums are still being collected. Couple that with a ‘small business’ exemption that is only a fraction of what it is in some other provinces, and a failure to apply the tax progressively, and you can understand the concern amongst our member businesses and non-profits.”

B.C. launches rental housing task force

Task force will tour province and review existing rental laws and how they apply to different housing models Lauren Boothby

lboothby@burnabynow.com

The B.C. government launched its Rental Housing Task Force on Monday with a new website and a tour across the province to speak with renters and landlords starting next week.

The task force, to be headed up by VancouverWest End MLA Spencer Chandra Herbert, will review existing rental laws and how they apply to different housing models and how other jurisdictions have addressed similar housing issues.

Public meetings will be held in 10 cities across the province, including Maple Ridge next Monday (June 4),Vancouver on June 27, and in Surrey on June 28.

While no sessions are scheduled in the Burnaby area, residents can attend sessions at another location, participate by joining the online discussion (engage.gov.bc.ca/rentalhousingtaskforce), or by sending

an email to RentalHousing.

TaskForce@gov.bc.ca. Organizations may also make submissions on the project website.

In a press conference Monday, Herbert said the government wants to ensure it gives landlords confidence in renting out their properties while making sure renters are also protected, and for both to feel the process is fair.

“We’re asking renters to think as if they’re landlords, landlords to think as if they’re renters, because, in the end, it’s a complex relationship and you need both parties,” he said. “It’s not about pro-renter versus prolandlord, it’s about trying to be pro-rental, and finding a way to make sure both renters and landlords, housing providers, feel secure when they rent out their suite and when they stay in them.”

The consultation process is open-ended, he said, because each type of housing has its own set of potential issues.

Municipal diplomacy still plays a key role

After acquiring a nuclear arsenal to defend against the United States, North Korea was probably not going to surrender that arsenal at the behest of the United States.

Still, some optimistic, peace-loving fools hoped U.S. President Donald Trump could overcome his tendency to bluster about button size and find commonalities with a dictator.

But much like his hopes for an Emmy,Trump’s aspira-

tion for a Nobel Peace Prize was dashed this week following the cancellation of a proposed summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un.

It would be easy to write that diplomacy failed, but we’re not certain it was attempted.The current resident of theWhite House is a swaggering, bullying, jeering example of the need for diplomacy.With our own municipal elections looming,

None of our current mayors resemble Donald Trump. Let’s keep it that way. we should consider his example carefully.

During the next five months you will hear a lot of aspiring and incumbent civic politicians talking about how they will get

things done.You will be told certain politicians can kick some TransLink butt and get us buses.You’ll be told that some candidates will push back against the province and the feds by de-

manding more funding and services.

Only it doesn’t work that way.

If we want low-cost housing, better transit or road infrastructure improvements, our mayors will need to partner with senior levels of government or developers.

Those partnerships won’t be achieved with verbal abuse or vitriol.They take innovative ideas, patience and savvy negotiating to get done.

Despite the preposterous comments of Metro Vancouver chairman Greg Moore during the recent golden handshake flap, none of our current mayors resemble Donald Trump.

Let’s keep it that way.

A lack of municipal diplomacy may not push the doomsday clock forward, but it can always push our own vehicular and political gridlock backward.

Dix hitting home runs

As befits a guy who has the most money to spend in government, Health Minister Adrian Dix has been busy.

Every week seems to produce a major announcement. And judging from the reaction from medical professionals, for the most part Dix is hitting home runs.

Take the most recent announcement about the recruitment of 200 family doctors and 200 nurse practitioners. Such action is urgently required and long overdue.

More than 700,000 British Columbians lack access to a family physician, and that number is growing.While the previous B.C. Liberal government promised to rectify the situation and guarantee a family doctor for everyone, it proved unable to fulfil a promise considered by many as unrealistic.

Dix’s vow to hire 200 more family doctors won’t solve the shortage problem, but it’s a healthy start.

So is the decision to recruit all those nurse practitioners, who will be able to join team-based practices that can help families.

Dr. David Kim, president of the Resident Doctors of B.C., lauded the announcement, saying it would greatly benefit new physicians.

Another ambitious plan is to create a network of urgent care centres around the province, again using a team-based approach that includes various medical professionals.The threeyear program should take some of the pressure off emergency rooms that of-

ten become clogged during times like flu season.

Dix announced a plan to perform 5,000 additional surgeries for hip and knee replacements – a 23 per cent increase in one year.

There will be a new central surgery unit created at Vancouver General Hospital.

Then there is the decision to fund 37,000 more MRI procedures, a 20 per cent increase in one year.

Dix’s ministry does indeed have a lot of money, a fact that seems to be taken for granted by many folks these days.

This year alone will see the health budget receive an additional $850 million in new funding, bringing the total budget to a staggering $19.8 billion. Next year will see a further $870 million added, and the budget will exceed $21 billion the next year as well.

But Dix must ensure there are enough medical professionals in the labour pool to provide this planned increase in surgeries.

The one initiative that has drawn criticism is Dix’s vow to crack down on private health clinics starting Oct. 1. Such a move could increase wait lists in the public system, according to private clinic operators. Dix counters that clinics do mostly MRIs and joint replacement surgeries, the two areas that he has prepped for big increases on the public side.

In any event, I suspect Dix is not done yet. More reforms and change will follow, and that’s likely good news for those who need to access the system.

Woman fends off abduction

A woman fended off a terrifying abduction attempt in July. She had been driving westbound on Marine Way near Nelson when a car carrying three men in their 20s or early 30s pulled alongside.The men in the vehicle repeatedly pointed to one of the woman’s tires, indicating there was a problem.When she pulled over, the trio stopped behind her. Instead of helping, one of the men got out and grabbed her by the throat. Although she was punched and slapped, she managed to fight off her attacker.The men then sped off.The woman was not seriously hurt, but she was very shaken up.

Restore bike cops for our local parks

describe bylaw enforcement officers.

Bylaw enforcement officers are tasked with enforcing many regulations important to maintaining safe, livable communities. Would the term “civilian” be used to describe a firefighter, a commercial vehicle enforcement officer or a special constable with the BCSPCA? I do realize bylaw enforcement officers have a different role in public safety than the police, but using the word “civilian” makes it seem as though they are regular citizens volunteering in the community.

Bylaw enforcement officers are peace officers and can have a significant role in public safety when utilized effectively. They have the legal authority to detain and arrest individuals they see committing an offence, something that “civilians” cannot in most cases.

Local governments need to address the rising costs of policing and the gap in public safety that exists between doing nothing and hiring additional police resources. Bylaw enforcement officers are a cost-effective complement to public safety initiatives that can deal with social nuisance issues that do not always require police involvement.

Steffan Zamzow, Burnaby

Editor: I was shocked to learn that the Burnaby RCMP’s highly effective bike patrols were going to be discontinued. The decision to replace them with civilian bylaw officers does little to increase the public’s safety. That is not to say that the bylaw officers are not needed, but they do not serve the same purpose. How much more effective is it for an RCMP officer to be on the scene, as opposed to a bylaw officer who “observes and reports”?

During the past few years, there seems to have been a great emphasis on community policing The bike squads were so effective in this area. I have often seen children and adults talking to bike patrol members, something I feel would not happen if the officers were in cars.

Would this interaction not serve to build community relationships as well as allow the officers insight into what is happening?

Brew crew: The Dageraad group accepting their awards. PHOTO CONTRIBUTED

Dageraad named the top brewery in all of Canada Lauren Boothby

lboothby@burnabynow.com

An award-winning Burnaby brewery has taken home yet another major win this month.

Dageraad Brewing has won Brewery of theYear at the 2018 Canadian Brewing Awards, Canada’s national competition for Canadian-manufactured beer.

The brewery won three gold medals for their Belgianstyle craft beer in a blind tasting competition where judges choose the best beers in 55 style categories from across the country.

The company also won 10 medals over the last two years at the annual B.C. Brewing Awards, five in 2017, and five in 2016.

All this recognition in both the provincial and national competitions has

been very satisfying to owner Ben Coli.

“It’s a long process setting up a business like this; there’s a lot of moments of self-doubt,” he told the NOW. “After this long road, to get this kind of recognition on a national level, it’s incredible.”

Coli attributes his success to their willingness to go forward with something different – the brewery specializes in a niche Belgian-style beer – and to hone in on perfecting his craft, almost obsessively.

“I think it’s nerdery and passion,” he laughed. “Just being obsessed with the details and focusing and keeping good notes and re-iteration, just doing it again and again and again until it’s right.

“You have to love the beers to be able to do this,

to pay that kind of minute attention to a beer.”

Dageraad Brewing won gold medals at the Canadian Brewing Awards for Entropy Series No. 6 in the Belgian-Style Brett Beer category, Antwerpen in the Belgian-Style Tripel category, and the Burnabarian in the Belgian Style Abbey Ale/ Pale Ale category.

The Burnabarian, a “silly word” Coli says he made up, is lighter, but still complex and lightly spiced. It’s a beer he drinks the most after a long day of work.

The Antwerpen is a Belgian-style tripel, a blonde beer that is high in alcohol, with complex, layered flavours, including floral notes, spicy notes, fruity notes.

The third beer, Entropy Series No. 6, is limited series barrel-aged beers with only 20 cases, now sold out.

Man faces 12 charges for robbery spree

But dealership’s owner spared personal ban after unsafe cars were sold

A 46-year-old Vancouver man faces 12 charges in relation to a string of bank robberies, including more than one in Burnaby.

Police identified Sean Bishop as a suspect after a bank robbery in the 1900 block of Rosser Avenue on Feb. 24, according to Burnaby RCMP. A warrant was put out for his arrest, but he remained at large and is suspected of robbing 11 more financial institutions in Burnaby,Vancouver and Coquitlam between Feb. 24 and April 26 before being arrested in Vancouver on May 3.

Burnaby RCMP had received information of Bishop’s whereabouts and requested assistance from Vancouver police, who arrested him and turned him over to Burnaby RCMP. After a lengthy investigation, involving the Burnaby RCMP robbery unit,Vancouver police, Coquitlam RCMP, the Real Time Intelligence Centre and Lower Mainland Integrated Forensic Identification Services, Bishop was charged with 12 counts of robbery.

Ten-year ban for dealership Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

A 10-year ban against a Burnaby used-car dealership caught selling unsafe cars has been upheld by a B.C. Supreme Court judge, but a 10-year ban against its owner has been quashed.

Best Import Auto Ltd. on Kingsway and Imperial Street – recognizable by the fake, neon-coloured palm trees that adorn its lot – was investigated last July after repeated customer com-

plaints, according to court documents.

After an investigation and hearing, the Vehicle Sales Authority of B.C. yanked the dealership’s registration and banned both the company and its owner, 80-yearold Bob Shokohi, from reapplying for 10 years.

Registrar of motor dealers Ian Christman ruled Best Import had sold unsafe cars, “willfully” disobeyed orders from the auto sales regulator and tried to mislead one of its hearings.

The company and owner pushed back, petitioning B.C. Supreme Court to have Christman’s decision quashed and a new hearing called or the penalty reconsidered.

In a May 22 decision, B.C. Supreme Court Justice Ward Branch denied the petition against the 10year ban on the company but agreed Shokohi’s ban should be set aside because he wasn’t given adequate notice he could be personally barred from selling cars

because of the vehicle sales authority hearing.

The auto sales regulator has yet to decide whether to launch fresh proceedings against Shokohi personally.

Justice Branch declined to comment on the reasonableness of the 10-year ban against the Best Import owner, “particularly as the evidence and submissions may change if and when that proceeding is heard,” Branch said.

Inquest to review death of Burnaby student who was Tasered Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

The 2016 death of a former BCIT international student who died in custody after being Tasered by police will be probed at a public inquest in July.

Juan Carlos Salvany Sailes, a Venezuelan national and permanent resident

of Costa Rica, came to Canada to study at BCIT in 2014, according to a B.C. Coroners Service press release.

Two years later, on Oct. 19, 2016, he died after going into medical distress while in the custody of Coquitlam RCMP. Police had been called to the 1500 block of Balmor-

al Avenue at about 11 a.m. that day after a number of calls about a man trying to break into homes on the street, according to a report by the Independent Investigations Office.

Police located the man, Salvany Sailes, inside a residence.

He appeared to be in crisis and severely injured, ac-

cording to the police watchdog’s report.

Police told media at the time attempts had been made to calm Salvany Sailes down, but officers eventually deployed a stun gun and took him into custody.

He went into medical distress soon after and was taken to hospital, where he died.

The IIO cleared the officers involved of wrongdoing in an Oct. 27, 2016 report, concluding the injuries that caused Salvany Sailes’s death were sustained before his contact with police and the Taser. Because the former BCIT student died while in police custody, however, a public inquest is mandatory under the Cor-

oners Act.The inquest will take place on July 9 at the Burnaby Coroners’ Court (20th floor, 4720 Kingsway, Metrotower II).

Coroner Susan Barth and a jury will hear evidence from witnesses under oath to determine the facts of his death, and the jury will then get a chance to make recommendations.

Crown wants five years for fentanyl trafficker editorial@burnabynow.com

A five-year sentence was recommended to the court Monday for a man in connection with a massive fentanyl drug bust in Burnaby in 2016.

Lawyers for the defence and prosecution presented a joint sentencing submission for Delta resident Adam Summers, now 28, in Surrey provincial court.

His co-accused, Adam Pipping of Surrey, had his sentencing hearing adjourned until June 29 to allow lawyers time to review a restitution agreement to the landlord of the Burnaby home where the drug operation was discovered and for the prosecution to review an enhanced credit application presented by the defence.

Both Summers and Pipping have been in custody since March 2016. Federal prosecutor Mick LeDressay told the court the drug operation was high-level, profitable and dealt with large amounts of fentanyl.

“Given the dangers inherent in fentanyl trafficking

and that these were the two largest trafficking incidents in which Mr. Summers participated, it is the Crown’s position that five years would be appropriate,” said LeDressay.

“Mr. Summers presented in the undercover operations as very much the lieutenant of Mr. Pipping – the person who organized the dial-a-dope lines, the person who appeared to organize the runners and helped train the runners and, in as much as he was involved in a much higher level in the management of the dial-adope operation that went hand-in-hand with the production, we say this is a factor that needs to be taken into account.”

LeDressay told the court the five-year sentence is in line with recent sentencing involving people who are engaged in fentanyl trafficking at higher levels.

LeDressay said the sentence will also include a 10year firearms ban as well as submitting a DNA sample to the court. Summers would also receive credit for time already served.

Award-winning child actor just a regular kid Lauren Boothby

lboothby@burnabynow.com

At 12 years old, Burnaby actor Emily Delahunty already has a decade of acting experience, and an impressive 23 credits on her IMDB profile.

“I wouldn’t give (acting) up for anything,” she says emphatically.

It was “wacky hair day” at Glenwood Community School last week. Emily and her younger sister Fleur – both with hair piled high and sprayed with glittery purple paint – arrived at a coffee shop in Burnaby Heights for an interview with their mother Rho Delahunty. Emily wore a Stitch (of Lilo and Stitch) T-shirt, a jean jacket and shorts, and an open, toothy smile.

Emily has a happy, confident and gentle demeanuor, unlike the bratty and sometimes mean girls and villains she has played in her acting roles.

“I find it quite fun because I don’t get to do that in real life, because that’s just rude,” she says, laughing. “I like doing it because I don’t get to do that in real life, and I get to see that other side of me when I’m in character.”

Emily has been acting since she was two years old.

She’s had a variety of roles, from acting in toy commercials, to playing a demonpossessed child in Supernat-

ural, or a villain in a Netflix series. For her, acting is a way to experience different things and learn about new ways of seeing the world.

“In acting, I love that I get to be different characters and see things from other people’s perspectives, and not just me all the time. I get to see what other people are going through and what happens in real life in different people,” she says.

Emily is an “old soul,” says mom Rho. Her favourite actors are Audrey Hepburn, and Bette Midler in Beaches. Her favourite colour is “Tiffany blue” – she has an old, refurbished desk and a dresser painted in that colour – and she asked for a

typewriter for her birthday when she was nine.

As a two-year-old, she was singing numbers from Annie and The Sound of Music for her parents, and she would beg her mother to let her perform before going to bed.That’s when her parents decided to sign their daughter up for professional acting classes.

“Before she could even read she began doing scene

studies,” says Rho, which is learning scripts with other actors. “I would read it to her and she would memorize it just like that.”

More recently, Emily played Charlie in The Buddy Games (currently in post-production), Brandi in Mech-X4 (2018), Ximena Chin in Wonder (2017) with Julia Roberts and Owen Wilson, and Tessa Wallis in the Netflix series Project Mc2 (2017).

On set, she’s been called the “one-take wonder” for her ability to listen, understand and take direction well.

But mostly she’s just a regular kid. Emily likes owls, bunnies and anything Disney. Her bedroom was covered in One Direction memorabilia before the band broke up, and now Ed Sheeran is her favourite singer.

One of her favourite

ACTING CHOPS: Emily Rho (right) on the set of Project Mc2 things about acting is the stunts, she says. In Project Mc2, she repels from the ceiling in a Mission Impossible-style stunt, and in Supernatural she’s pulled out from under a bed when playing a child that is demon-possessed.

Emily hopes this is just the beginning of a long career in the film industry for her. One day, she hopes to act in an Adam Sandler movie, and maybe even direct her own films.

And while acting is a big

PHOTO CONRTRIBUTED

part of her life, her mom says she makes sure she has time to “just be a kid.” She spends the weekends playing sports with her sister and cousins, swimming and travelling with the family.

Rho says she doesn’t want to be one of those “stage moms” who let their child’s success get to their heads, who only let their children spend time with the other more well-known child actors.

But Emily is already an award-winning actor. Last

month, she won aYoung Entertainer Award for her role Project Mc2, and in 2015 she won aYoung Artist Award for her role in the short film My Mom is an Alien (2014).

This weekend Emily will attend the LEO awards in Vancouver, hoping to win for her performance in Project Mc2 in the Best PerformanceYouth or Children’s Program category.

We’ll certainly be interested in seeing where she ends up. Break a leg, Emily.

City now How well can you float in a cardboard boat?

Elementary school students face off at Kensington Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

There’s a learning curve when it comes to building and racing cardboard boats.

That was one of the takeaways at the Burnaby school district’s third annual What FloatsYour Boat? Challenge last week.

Once again, students in Grade 2 to 7 converged on Kensington pool to test the seaworthiness of boats built out of cardboard, tape and a few other supplies with help from high school mentors.

Parkcrest Elementary, which has participated in the challenge every year, blew the competition away Wednesday.

A boat designed and built

by Grade 7 students Issa, Nicholas, Kaito and Samantha; and Grade 6 student Jason made it across the 25-metre pool in one piece in a record time of 27

seconds.

It then crossed two more time, remaining seaworthy throughout.

For the first time, schools from all of the district’s four zones participated, and organizers had to add a second pool day Friday.

Lakeview Elementary won on the second day, with a boat designed, built and navigated by Grade 7 student Ava, Grade 6 students Omar and Akaash, Grade 5 Shavic and Grade 4 Karen.

In all, 150 students on 28 teams from 17 schools participated in the contest, designed to support the applied design, skills and technologies component of B.C.’s new curriculum, which encourages students to come up with practical and innovative responses to everyday needs and problems.

“Ultimately, it’s about having lots of fun, learning

and designing, collaborating with teammates,” career education program consultant Paul Arthur told the Burnaby NOW. Building on the success of the What FloatsYour Boat?

Challenge, the district is now looking to add a Soaring Over Burnaby gliding challenge.

Unlike the boating contest, students will not be required to pilot their gliders.

AS WE AGE

Celebrating Seniors

Seniors invited to hit the dance floor at Bonsor Theresa McManus

tmcmanus@burnabynow.com

Eileen Sagman still loves hitting the dance floor at 91.

Bonsor 55+ Society holds dances every Tuesday afternoon and Thursday evening at its centre in Burnaby, with the dances including light refreshments and music performed by live bands.

“It’s ’50s, ’60s, ’70s music, rock ‘n’ roll, tangos and cha-chas.There are polka, waltzes. Everything,” said Sagman. “I just do it for fun.”

Sagman started attending the dances about 15 years ago, while living inVancouver.The dances attract folks aged 55 and up from around the region, including NewWestminster, the North Shore,White Rock andVancouver.

“Because we are so friendly and we are having so much fun,” Sagman said, when asked why people travel to Burnaby for the dances. “There is such a variety of music and a variety of different kinds of dances.”

The dance has a casual dress code, but people are discouraged from wearing jeans or shorts.

No partner? Two left feet?

No problem.

“People that don’t have partners, the girls get up and dance together.We just jump around and have a good time.We have a really good time,” Sagman says.

We just jump around and have a good time.

“Everybody is really friendly.We like to encourage everybody to come and just enjoy themselves.We welcome newcomers.”

Bonsor 55+ is a seniors centre run by the City of Burnaby’s parks and recreation department. Adjacent to Bonsor recreation complex, the standalone senior’s centre offers programs to keep people 55 and older active, healthy and engaged

in the community.

“It keeps us active and young.You are meeting friends,” Sagman said. “You are not sitting at home looking at four walls.We get out, we see all these people.

That’s part of the enjoyment of getting the people to come – it’s the enjoyment of belonging to something like that. I know of people who are so depressed sitting at home. It’s just wonderful to see them come out and have a good time.”

Bonsor 55+ dances are held on Tuesday afternoons from noon till 3 p.m. and on Thursday evenings from 7:30 to 10:30 p.m. (The Tuesday afternoon dances

won’t be offered in July and August, but will resume in September.)

Admission is $5 for members of Bonsor 55+ and $7 for non-members, which includes tea, coffee and light refreshments and a chance to dance to music performed by live bands.

“Everybody just comes and enjoys themselves,” Sagman said. “It is a very friendly place. Everybody very nice.”

Everyone 55 and up is welcome to drop in to the dances, which take place at the centre located at 6533 Nelson Ave.

Let’s get wet: MP Terry Beech tests out the dunk tank. PHOTO CONTRIBUTED

Come dunk your local MP Lauren Boothby

lboothby@burnabynow.com

If you’re walking down Hastings Street on Hats Off Day this weekend, you might spot your local MP soaking wet and with a smile on his face.

Terry Beech, Liberal MP for Burnaby North-Seymour, was walking by the fire department during Hats Off Day last year and was invited to come sit in the tank to help raise money for the Burnaby Firefighters Charitable Society.

He refused.

“I was checking my weight and wondering if I wanted to be wet in front of everyone,” he said, grabbing his stomach and laughing.

“But I said this would be great motivation to stay in shape for next year, so why don’t I come in next year?”

Being located on Hastings Street in the middle of the action, his constituency office always celebrates Burnaby’s biggest festival, says Beech, but this is the first time he’ll be in the dunk tank, an uncommon move

“We’re looking forward to it, and they’ve quite wisely given my wife the first throw,” he says, laughing.

“I’m hoping I’ll be a bit of a draw.”

First responders were some of the first people he met after he was first elected, he says, and now he’s looking forward to supporting their charity.

“They’re absolutely vital for our community,” he said.

Pirates and Sailors to roam the Heights

Are you ready to sail to new Heights?

Burnaby’s Hastings Street has all hands on deck for the 34th Hats Off Day festival.

On Saturday, approximately 50,000 people will join the Burnaby Heights merchants as they take their “hats off” to their community and their customers.

This year’s theme – Pirates and Sailors – will dominate the annual parade, followed by a big street party.

“Hats Off Day has been voted Burnaby’s best and favourite festival for the past

13 years,” says Isabel Kolic, executive director of the Heights Merchants Association. “We can’t wait to share the best of our community with everyone.”

The day starts at 9:30 a.m. with the Family Fun Dash, where kids and families sprint down Hastings for a thrilling three-block race from Madison to MacDonald avenues.

There is a $5 fee for each child participant. All proceeds from the Dash will benefit the Burnaby Firefighters Charitable Society.

For more details and regis-

tration, visit 2018hodfamily fundash.eventbrite.ca.

Next up, the Vancouver Motorcycle and Seattle Police Drill Teams will lead the colourful main-street style parade at 10 a.m., followed by a big street party where you can spot pirates and sailors sailing the streets.

While you cruise down Hastings, enjoy the live music, street performers, various sidewalk sales and delicious food until 4 p.m., not to mention a vintage car show at the Show & Shine from Gamma Avenue to Willingdon Street.

Special guests this year are the Laughing Loggers, who will be showcasing a pirate-themed, adventurepacked water spectacle.

“Every direction you look, there are fun activities and live entertainment, not just for kids, but for everyone,” says Kolic.

“Each block you walk down truly highlights a unique aspect of the Burnaby Heights community.”

BURNABY HEIGHTS MERCHANTS & COMMUNIT Y PRESENT

The Heights will always be my ’hood

By Chris Campbell

ccampbell@burnabynow.com

The first time I ever attended Hats Off Day, I felt like I had stepped back into my childhood.

I grew up in North Burnaby but, after college, moved to Maple Ridge to work at a newspaper.

I figured I’d stay two years and then work my way back into my hometown community. But I met my now-ex-wife, had a child, became editor, and spent more than 20 years there.

During that time, I didn’t spend many days in Burnaby, other than to visit my mom. But one year, she told me it was time that I took part in Hats Off Day.

So I slathered on the sunscreen, found some parking and took my daughter to what I thought was probably a few hundred people checking out the Heights shops.

Boy, was I ever wrong.

With all the streets blocked off, thousands roamed up and down Hastings – and I was transformed to that child who spent so many hours in this neighbourhood.

Growing up in the 1970s, the Heights neighbourhood was everything. My parents hung out at Royal Canadian Legion branch 148. I got my hair cut at Mike’s barbershop. I got my tonsils checked at ol’ Doc Appleby’s office. I visited my grandpa, who worked at the liquor store at Hastings and Willingdon.

Oh, and what I really lived for was going

with my mom to the Valley Bakery.There, the women who worked behind the counter would always tell me I was the most adorable child (true!) and give me a sugar cookie as I drooled over the incredible cakes behind the glass.

The Heights offered everything.

Now, here I was with my own daughter, Emily, wandering up and down the neighbourhood, listening to music and munching on good food.

It really hadn’t changed much as far as the charm factor, and yet it was still different in many ways.

The bowling alley had burned down, and the old Dairy Queen – which was just a counter window you ordered from – was gone, but I noticed there have been a lot of

really cool new businesses added over the years. New Italian delis. Glenburn Soda Fountain. Lots of sushi places (this is, of course, still Metro Vancouver).

But it was more than that. Most of the buildings had freshly painted murals that brought the street to life. And the old Helen’s neon sign had been repurposed to say, “Heights.”

So if you haven’t been to the Heights lately, mark Saturday, June 2, down on your calendar and come out to enjoy everything this neighbourhood has to offer. Oh, and look for me in the parade.

ADVERTORIAL

Tinnitus – Cause and Treatment Dr Ted Venema

Audiologist/Teaching Professor

The word ‘tinnitus’ is derived from the Latin word ‘tinnire’, meaning ‘to tinkle’ or ‘ring like a bell’.

The sounds heard can range from a humming to a high-pitched ringing or a roar. The vast majority of those with Tinnitus are told that there is no medical cure, no medication to treat it. In Canada, about 5 million people have a form of it.

Interestingly, research studies conducted with loudness matching experiments, have shown that the loudness of an individual’s Tinnitus is usually only 5 decibels above their hearing threshold during the test. Despite that, the effect on many peoples’ lives ranges beyond being only mildly annoying to severe enough to have a chronic impact upon their quality of life: the inability to concentrate, sleep disorders, anxiety, and depression.

Those with Meniere’s disease of the inner ear may report a roaring Tinnitus. One’s physician may find it pulsatile in quality, vascular in origin.

But people with supersensitive hearing may suffer as well.

Those with Noise Induced Hearing Loss (NIHL) quite often experience a high-pitched ringing due to the damage to their cochlear hair cells, resulting in high-frequency, treble hearing loss.

good news is that ‘combination devices’ have been developed. These digital hearing aids have been specifically designed with programs that produce various types of masking noises.

Tinnitus Retraining Therapy (TRT), an audiologic treatment encompassing the ear and the brain, has emerged as an effective method of treating Tinnitus. Using a desensitization approach, the patient uses environmental sound, or ear-level sound generators (with or without incorporated hearing aids) to partially mask their Tinnitus, so they can still hear their Tinnitus but are less aware of it. Counselling is an important part of TRT, helping the patient to accept that the objective is not to eliminate the Tinnitus but rather to minimize the perception of it by training Causes of Tinnitus can range from the simple, the brain to treat the sound as meaningless, not like cerumen (hardened ear wax) lodging something to be feared or dreaded. against the tympanic membrane (ear drum) to the complex, an imbalance between neurons carrying auditory information from the tiny hair cells of the cochlear (the spiral-shaped cavity forming a division of the internal ear) to the brain and back again. Antibiotics and high doses of aspirin can also aggravate Tinnitus.

It is important for physicians to rule out a VIII cranial nerve tumour as well.

For patients with hearing loss and Tinnitus, the

Dr Ted Venema earned a BA in Philosophy at Calvin College and an MA in Audiology at Western Washington University. After working for three years as a clinical Audiologist at The Canadian Hearing Society in Toronto, he went back to school and completed a PhD in Audiology at the University of Oklahoma. He was an Assistant Professor at Auburn University in Alabama. In 2017, Ted began teaching in the new Hearing Instrument Practitioner program at Douglas College in Coquitlam BC. He continues to give presentations on hearing, hearing loss and hearing aids.

Wish you knew then?

Noise-induced hearing loss is caused by overexposure to loud sounds.

In some cases, the damage is only temporary. But repeated exposure to excessive noise for long periods such as heavy equipment, gun shots or prolonged exposure to loud music can cause permanent damage.

If you suspect a hearing loss try our free, online hearing test today or visit a clinic near you.

AS WE AGE

Celebrating Seniors

Seniors advocate lobbies for new transportation program British Columbia’s seniors advocate is recommending the creation of a new program to help with seniors’ transportation.

Seniors Advocate Isobel Mackenzie recently released a report, Seniors Transportation: Affordable, Appropriate and Available, which concludes that changes are needed to address some of the existing transportation systems and suggests a new program is required to fill in some of the gaps.

“At the age of 65, approximately 90 per cent of B.C. seniors have a driver’s licence, but this drops to approximately 44 per cent by the age of 85,” said a statement from the seniors advocate. “It is challenging when we begin retirement with driving ourselves to activities and appointments but find, many years later, that

What advocate wants to see …

British Columbia’s seniors advocate has made a number of recommendations in her recently released report: Seniors Transportation: Affordable, Appropriate and Available. The recommendations include: ! The province should coordinate with ICBC to get information about transportation alternatives and other community supports into the hands of those seniors who are not renewing their driver’s licence. ! The province should work with local governments to explore ways of achieving more pedestrianfriendly communities through the use of grants, tax incentives, rebates and other tools.

! Support people who volunteer to drive their family members, friends or neighbours to medical appointments, through a tax relief program for someone acting as the primary driver for a senior who no longer has a current driver’s licence and qualifies for HandyDART and/or the Federal Disability Tax Credit. ! The province should work with B.C. Transit and TransLink to establish a standardized, provincewide “Seniors Bus Buddies” program that will connect seniors with local volunteers or staff that will work with the senior to initiate them into the use of public transit. ! The province should work with B.C. Transit and

TransLink to increase the number of benches at bus stops. ! Create an annual seniors bus pass with fee based on income. The pass should be considered eligible payment on HandyDART if the passenger has a HandyCard or handyPASS. ! Develop a provincewide training program for transit drivers focused on supporting senior transit users. ! Continue efforts to increase the availability of HandyDART services. ! Review fees charged to clients who use HandyDART and consider a more progressive approach that recognizes income and frequency of use to ensure cost isn’t a barrier.

of seniors, determines what their needs are, determines how much they can contribute to the cost of needed services and hires, schedules and supervises thousands of staff working every day to assist seniors in maintaining their independence.

“Along with helping seniors get bathed, dressed and ensuring they take their medications, the program could easily schedule someone to pick up the senior and take them to a medical appointment,” said a news release from the Office of the Seniors’ Advocate. “Using the existing infrastructure of home support will allow the program to get up and running quickly and will reduce duplication.”

In addition to the new service, Mackenzie has called for improvements on a number of fronts.

See sidebar below for some of the highlights of what she’s recommending.

LOCAL NEWS Inspired by nature: Artwork by Lucyna Eschner is on display at the Burnaby Neighbourhood House North House in the month of June. There’s an open house and meet-the-artist event on Friday, June 8 from 6 to 8 p.m. PHOTO CONTRIBUTED

Neighbourhood House features art exhibition Paintings inspired by nature are on display at Burnaby Neighbourhood House in June.

The North House is hosting an exhibition by Lucyna Eschner throughout June.

An open house and meetthe-artist event is on Friday, June 8 from 6 to 8 p.m.

A press release notes Eschner has enjoyed drawing since her childhood in Poland, and, after her immigration to Canada, her Grade 7 teacher helped her discover many new forms

of art with materials such as paint and wax crayons, which she never had access to in Poland.

After finishing school, she started taking evening painting classes to learn more about oil, watercolour and acrylic, and she joined both the Burnaby Artist Guild and Richard Major Art Group.

“With her growing involvement in numerous demos, the possibilities for her art and the breadth of her techniques grew as

well,” the release says.

Eschner draws inspiration for her work from nature.

You can stop in to Burnaby Neighbourhood House North House at 4908 Hastings St. to check out her work. All proceeds from sales will be donated to the Adventist Development and Relief Agency.

The show is part of a regular series of art exhibitions held at Burnaby Neighbourhood House. For more, see www.burnabynh.ca.

SFU runner earns silver at the NCAAs SFU’s Addy Townsend was the runner-up in the women’s 1,500-metre race at the 2018 NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championships in Charlotte, N.C., while fellow SFU student Vladislav Tsygankov received an All-American trophy in the men’s 400-metre hurdles.

Townsend qualified for both the 1,500-metre and 800-metre races but this year decided on the former – in 2017 she took eighth place in the 800-metre race.

Townsend held the lead during the first two laps of the race, but Sarah Berger of Walsh University moved to the front on the third lap while Townsend slipped back to third. On the final leg, however,Townsend kicked into high gear and passed Kristen Metcalfe of Embry-Riddle to finish in second place with a time of 4:23.68. Berger won with a time of 4:22.22.

“Addy ran an incredible race especially the last 70 metres,” said head coach and Addy’s mother Brit Townsend. “This is a fantastic finish for someone who just decided to run the 1,500 towards the end of the season. She

showed maturity as she moved herself into the lead for two laps and then never giving up over the last 200 metres.”

Tsygankov placed fifth in the 400-metre hurdles with a time of 51.88 seconds, earning him an All-American trophy – given to those finishing in the top eight.Tsygankov finished 11th in the qualifying heats but after two runners were disqualified, he moved into the final race.

“We decided to start slower on the first two hurdles to give me more strength on the final hurdles and it worked,”Tsygankov said.

“Vlad got a second chance and he took full advantage of it running a much smoother race and focusing on his own rhythm,” said head coach Townsend. “He ended up capturing his best AllAmerican finish in his collegiate career.”

Other SFU wins included Reta Dobie who earned an All-American trophy in steeplechase, finishing eighth, and Ally Ginther who finished 20th in the women’s 5,000-metre race at her first NCAA championships.

Knights take frisbee bronze St.Thomas More Knights’ senior ultimate frisbee team took bronze at the first-ever provincial high school championships, beating Vancouver’s St. John’s in the bronze-medal game 15-4.

The Knights had five wins and one loss at the tournament.They lost in the semifinal to R.C. Palmer of Richmond, who were the eventual champions.

Ultimate is a fast-paced game and players need to have keen handeye coordination and good field sense, explained Joe Muise, the team’s coach.

“It incorporates the quick motion of basketball, the cutting of football and the endurance of soccer,” said Muise.

Ultimate differs from other high schools in that there are both male and female players on the field together.

“Our team had a particularly strong group of girls this year, and they made the difference in many of our wins at provincials,” Muise added.

Burnaby school VP amped for another Mann Cup run Dan Olson

dolson@burnabynow.com

Last year’s amazing run, which saw the New Westminster Salmonbellies turn a fourth-place finish into a Mann Cup march, proved to be an elixir for many, fans and players alike.

The thrill of the win and the sting of defeat – falling 4-2 to Peterborough in the national championship, after winning the first two games – stoked the fires of many, and proved to be a swan song for some.

Chalk New West captain Curtis Hodgson down for the former.

“I am pumped and excited to be able to play another year with the ‘Bellies,” Hodgson told the Now. “I think all of us feel there’s something to finish, that we were on the cusp of doing something really special and want to give it another try.”

Since his first game in the WLA in 2002, playing one game each for Burnaby and Coquitlam as a junior call-up, Hodgson has

jumped onto the floor with the passion of a teenager driving his first nice car. He’s put the pedal to the metal ever since, and since joining New West in 2010 missed only six regular season games.

The longtime ‘Bellies defender caused some alarm bells to ring last fall when he announced he was retiring from the Vancouver Stealth of the National Lacrosse League. He noted that decision was always independent from his views on playing again in New West.

“I think there were a number of reasons (to retire), but I just reached a point where I couldn’t do everything that was required to maintain and play at the pro level, with the practice and travel that involves,” he noted.

The past few years have also seen him move from a classroom role, teaching at Burnaby Central, to an administrative job at Burnaby South Secondary.

In his day job as vice-principal at Burnaby South, Hodgson juggles the various tasks of an educator and administrator. It’s

his sporting hobby where he gets to let it all hang out, wrangling opposing players from the shooting alley and battling for loose balls.

For a guy entering his 15th season of senior lacrosse and fresh off a Mann Cup run, the dog days of summer are never a concern.

“I’m definitely excited to play lacrosse, and last year was a great experience, despite the outcome,” Hodgson noted. “I think the biggest thing I got from it was experience – you gain a lot of experience playing a second season like that.”

New West GM/president Dan Richardson was just as excited as his captain when Hodgson signed up for another season.

“He’s absolutely back, and he’s our leader. He’s looked good at training camp and it’s like he has almost renewed energy because he didn’t play with the Stealth this year. He looks hungry. Our camp has been a very upbeat, fast-paced camp and the coaches are getting to know our players and

vice versa. (First-year head coach Rory McDade) is very much wanting that fast pace coming out of the backend, and so far we like what we see.”

A first team all-star with Burnaby in 2005, 2007 and 2008 as well as the league’s top defender in both 2007 and ’08, Hodgson has experienced numerous ups and downs on the senior A circuit.

Hodgson sat out the 2009 WLA season and signed with New West, where he settled in beside fellow top defender Ian Hawksbee to make a formidable, veteran backline.

When Hawksbee decided to retire following last September’s Mann Cup, many people assumed Hodgson would follow suit.

It isn’t a case of tempting Dorian Gray, as the ‘Bellies captain said the timing wasn’t right because the desire was still there.

“Our strength as a group just made us grow and come together as it would getting to a Mann Cup,” he noted. “Once you get a taste of getting that close, you want to get back there.”

Task force to hit the road for answers to B.C.’s rental housing crisis To help the B.C. government improve the Residential Tenancy Act, the newly appointed Rental Housing Task Force will be touring the province in search of answers to the rental crisis, the group announced May 28.

The task force, chaired by West End MLA Spencer Chandra Herbert, will hit the road in June to consult with all levels of stakeholders, including renters and landlords, as well as owners of manufactured homes and home park operators.

The group also officially launched a website for those not attending community meetings to share their ideas at engage.gov.bc.ca/ rentalhousingtaskforce.

consultation with specific questions, and leaving the discussion open-ended, Chandra Herbert replied, “We’re not trying to frame the debate, we’re letting those who are actually involved in rental housing and living in rental housing provide us with the answers of where we need to look. Often governments will think they know the questions to ask and completely miss the boat. So I’d rather be open-ended and… allow people to engage with each other.”

The tour will kick off in Maple Ridge June 4, and will take in a total of 10 B.C. cities and regions, including Vancouver and Victoria, finishing in Surrey June 28. (Full list of meetings and how to sign up at engage.gov.bc.ca/rentalhousingtaskforce/communitymeetings.)

ACTIVE LISTINGS†

Chandra Herbert said that following the tour and the online engagement through the summer, the task force would submit a report to the Ministry of Housing in the fall. When asked by media, he did not deny that corresponding changes to legislation would be unlikely to occur until spring 2019 at the earliest.

He added, “It’s not about pro-renters, versus pro-landlords – it’s about trying to be pro-rental and helping both renters and housing providers feel secure.”

“We looked at areas where there were a high percentage of renters, different kinds of renters, secondary suites versus purpose-built rental, large urban centres versus smaller communities, communities impacted by tourism versus resource work… It’s a bit of a scatter-gun approach to see what’s out there.”

Chandra Herbert said at the press announcement, “We want renters to feel secure in their homes and that the process is fair, just as we want landlords to feel that they are secure in being able to rent out their homes, and that the process is fair… One of the issues is that people break the rules, and there’s no penalty for doing so.”

INFORMATION WANTED

NEW WESTMINSTER - It is with deep sorrow the family of Gary Allen Rhode announces Gary’s passing on May 23, 2018, at age 49 from cancer. Gary is survived by his wife, Kenna, son, Eric, father, Jake, sisters, Leslie (Wayne) and JoAnn, and many aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews and cousins. Gary is predeceased by his beloved mother, Maggie. Gary was raised in Saskatoon where he entered engineering school at the University of Saskatchewan before a two-year battle with Hogdkin’s disease caused him to set aside his education. Gary recovered and moved on with life, apprenticing as an electrician, and initially moving to Kelowna then Vancouver. In Vancouver, Gary met his future wife, Kenna, through a shared love of sailing. After a number of years, Gary shifted his career from electrician to electrical designer and found his calling. Eventually he would become associate principal for a large engineering firm in Vancouver where he managed electrical design projects on iconic buildings and contributed to green building design. In 2002, Gary and Kenna moved to New Westminster where they raised their son and became part of the community. Happy times for Gary included those watching his son’s hockey and lacrosse games, sailboat racing in Georgia Strait, and camping with family and friends.

Gary will be remembered as a loving husband, father, son and brother, a caring friend, and a man of integrity and strength of character.

He was dearly loved and will be sorely missed.

In lieu of flowers, his family asks that donations be made to the British Columbia Cancer Foundation in Gary’s name.

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