Charge laid nine years after mom murdered Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

More than nine years after her death, a charge has finally been laid in the killing of Burnaby mom Kimberly Lynn Hallgarth.

Former B.C. Lions player Josh Boden has been charged with second-degree murder in the death of the 33-year-old – his ex-girlfriend.

Hallgarth’s body was discovered at her home on Colborne Avenue on March 15, 2009.

Burnaby RCMP had been called to the fourplex for reports of an unconscious woman found

inside, according to the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team.

Officers arrived to find Hallgarth dead inside the home with “suspicious injuries,” and IHIT was called in to take over the investigation.

Boden was considered a “person of interest” early on but was never charged.

After nine years, however, IHIT announced Monday new evidence had been gathered to advance the investigation, and charges have been approved against 32-year-old Boden.

He was arrested without inci-

Hurley ‘humbled’ by new role as mayor Kelvin Gawley

kgawley@burnabynow.com

Burnaby Mayor Mike Hurley sounded a lot like candidate Mike Hurley in his first address after being sworn into office.

The retired firefighter repeated his campaign promises to stop displacement of renters, address homelessness and review policing in a speech at the Hilton Vancouver Metrotown Hotel Monday evening.

“As your new mayor, I am humbled by the trust Burnaby residents have placed in me to guide our city over the next four years,” he said. “It is a trust that I will uphold and will work very diligently to keep.”

Hurley made the speech after he and the city’s eight councillors were sworn in by provincial court judge Joanne Challenger in front of roughly 500 people in a conference room at the hotel.

The new mayor said he would strike a task force to address housing affordability in the new year.

He also said he would begin work immediately to help the city’s homeless population.

“It’s not acceptable to allow our citizens to sleep outside in freezing weather conditions,” Hurley said.

Burnaby Hospital is in unacceptable condition, according to Hurley, who said he would fight for new funding from the province to redevelop it.

“We are B.C.’s third largest city and our hospital has been ignored for way too long,” he said.

Lawyer wants ‘moot’ pipeline injunction set aside Kelvin Gawley

kgawley@burnabynow.com

A lawyer representing environmental activists says the injunction meant to prevent protesters from interfering with the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion project should be set aside.

The injunction is no longer relevant since federal approval of the project was quashed in August and construction has since halted, lawyer Casey Leggett wrote an application to the Supreme Court of B.C. Two anti-pipeline activists, Karl Perrin and Mia Nissen, have asked Justice Kenneth Affleck to set aside the injunction and award no costs “in light of the public interest aspect of this application.”

Affleck granted the injunction on March 16, 2018, and then amended it at Kinder Morgan’s request on June 1.

It gives the Burnaby RCMP power to arrest individuals who blockade Trans Mountain’s Westridge marine terminal and the entrance to its Burnaby Mountain tank farm.

Dozens of protesters have been

arrested and charged with criminal contempt of court for violating the injunction.The first individuals convicted faced $500 fines or community service hours but sentencing has ramped up as the Crown has argued there needs to be deterrence to stop the blockades from repeating.

Last week, four women convicted of violating the injunction in August were released on bail pending an appeal of their 14day jail sentences.Their lawyer argued the need for deterrence has vanished now that blockades have stopped as the project sits in limbo awaiting a new National Energy Board review and First Nations consultations.

Leggett argues the entire injunction should be set aside for the same reason.

“There is no longer a live controversy: the injunction is moot,” he wrote.

The original injunction was also granted on the grounds that protesters were doing “irreparable harm” to Kinder Morgan by delaying construction, causing the project to miss key deadlines and lose money.

Protest: One of many protests held at Westridge terminal. PHOTO NOW FILES

“There, of course, cannot be irreparable harm caused to a project that can no longer be built and may never be built,” Leggett wrote.

In an emailed statement, a Trans Mountain spokesperson said: “The Injunction was put in place

to allow our employees and contractors to safely carry out work.

We will be presenting our legal argument regarding this application to the court this week.”

The application is expected to be heard in B.C. Supreme Court on Thursday, Nov. 8.

al, James Wang, Nick Volkow, Dan Johnston and Pietro Calendino.

Jailed protesters plan on appealing Four pipeline protesters currently serving 14-day jail sentences for violating a court-ordered injunction meant to prevent interference with the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion project hope to appeal their sentences.

Kathryn Cass, Deb Wood, Kira McLean and Brenda Morrice were all arrested in August.

The women pleaded guilty to criminal contempt of court and were subsequently sentenced to 14 days in jail on Oct. 30.

The jail terms were among the harshest yet handed down.

But now that construction is on hold after the Federal Court of Appeal quashed federal approval of the project, there is no longer any need for such deterrence, according to Kris Hermes, who is providing legal support to the defendants.

“Their argument is that the Crown’s sentencing recommendations or guidelines that include imposing jail time for people who were arrested in the month of August is punitive and based on an outdated strategy of deterrence,” Hermes said.

City now CANNABIS

BCIT students plan Skip the Dishes for weed John Kurucz

editorial@burnabynow.com

Would-be entrepreneurs who go to school in Burnaby are lining up to break into Metro Vancouver’s cannabis market despite clear legislation from the province that suggests they’re instead breaking the law.

The latest case comes from a pair of BCIT computer science students who want to set up a mobile cannabis delivery service that will launch once dispensaries across the city get the green light. None currently have the proper licences from both the city and the province.

Kyle Dulay and Clayton Rannard are 21 and 19 respectively, and their budding business is called Leefey.Their system would, in theory, work via an app that links consumers to dispensaries and eventually to cyclists and drivers on the back end to deliver the product.

“We see ourselves as no different than someone like Skip the Dishes delivering alcohol to your door — it’s the same service, but with cannabis,” Dulay said. “We haven’t talked to anyone at the city; we’ve been talking

to lawyers. As far as lawyers are concerned, they say the delivery model is legal.”

However, the province begs to differ.

Since long before legal cannabis rolled out Oct. 17, the province has said the delivery model is a non-starter, save for deliveries made

by Canada Post. In that case, cannabis is ordered online from B.C. Cannabis stores only.The product is delivered by Canada Post to an individual’s home, or local post office, and must be received or picked up by an adult who can provide proof they are 19 or older.

Dulay says the same safeguards are in place with his business. ID must be provided and a $10 fee would be charged to those who can’t produce valid proof of age, on top of not receiving the order.

It’s nearly identical to a pitch made by Calgarybased company Save the Drive, which hoped to launch into the marketplace across Canada, including in Vancouver, as of Oct. 17.

“The rules are continually changing. For [the provincial government] to say we are breaking a law, it’s not law yet for us to break,” founder Chanel Graham

said in early September.

Glacier Syndicated reached out to Graham to see if her business had since launched in Vancouver, or anywhere else in Canada, but didn’t receive a response.

As for Dulay and Rannard, they hope to get rolling in downtown if and

when their business launches.They have a stable of about five delivery people, both on bike and in cars.

That number would increase to 10 as the business blossoms, and those drivers would be paid either parttime or full-time wages depending on the business’s profitability.

Dulay’s main argument in launching the business is that delivery models abound for alcohol, and that cannabis should be treated the same.

“I think we would fight it, if we were asked to shut down,” he said. “There’s nothing illegal about what we’re doing.You have com-

panies like Skip the Dishes delivering alcohol to people’s doors, and we’re providing the exact same service for a recreational drug.

We’re following all the procedures; we’re staying between the lines here. It wouldn’t be that easy to take us out.”

Glacier Syndicated put that exact question to the ministry of public safety and solicitor general — if companies such as Skip the Dishes can deliver booze, why can’t private enterprise crack into the cannabis delivery market?

A ministry spokesperson provided this response: “While the province’s Liquor Control and Licencing Act has been referred to throughout the development of the provincial regulatory framework, there are distinct differences between non-medical cannabis and alcohol that require consideration when developing public policy,” the spokesperson said. “Federal legalization of cannabis marks the end of nearly 100 years of prohibition and the B.C. government is taking a cautious and balanced approach to implementation of the provincial legalized cannabis regime.”

Province eyes Burnaby for government cannabis store Kelvin Gawley

kgawley@burnabynow.com

Burnaby could be among the first Lower Mainland cities to get a government pot shop.

The province’s Liquor Distribution Branch is eager to open B.C. Cannabis Stores in the Lower Mainland and on Vancouver Island, areas known to have “discerning” cannabis customers,

according to spokesperson Kate Bilney.

And, she said, Burnaby’s cannabis bylaws make it a likely home for a such a store.The city’s zoning allows for only government stores and bars private retailers.

“Obviously, given that the City of Burnaby is so welcoming to public stores, that is certainly a positive for us,” Bilney said.

Burnaby’s bylaw allows for a

maximum of four government stores in the city, one in each of its centres – Edmonds, Lougheed, Brentwood and Metrotown.

“We are investigating potential sites within those four areas,” Bilney said.

But, she said, no lease has been secured and the search for a suitable location is ongoing. Once one is found, the rezoning process with the city could take several more

months, Bilney said.

Burnaby’s director of planning and building, Lou Pelletier, said city staff would review any rezoning application from the distribution branch and report it to council. Former mayor Derek Corrigan has previously said Burnaby is taking a cautious approach to legalization. By allowing a restricted number of government stores and disallowing private retailers, the

city is taking a reasonable middle road, he said.

Mayor Mike Hurley (who was sworn in Monday, Nov. 5) has indicated he favours this approach and it will likely remain for the foreseeable future.

There is currently only one B.C. Cannabis Store.The Kamloops retailer opened on Oct. 17, the day recreational cannabis became legal across Canada.

Province needs to develop Silver Alert system

Municipal elections are but a distant memory (or nightmare) for candidates, citizens and journalists.

It was a hard-fought campaign that centred around housing affordability – as it should have been.

But now that the swearing-in ceremony is done and all the campaign signs have been removed, we’re reflecting on some of the issues that didn’t get discussed much on the campaign trail.

One thing that candidates didn’t get asked much was what would they do to pro-

mote a dementia and elderfriendly city?

Amidst all the clamour about affordable housing, lower taxes and more transparency, little has been said about Burnaby’s changing demographics and the need to provide senior-friendly streets, housing and recreation for those who lack mobility, a drivers’ license, financial resources and good health to take advantage of things already in place.

What’s more, the province needs a Silver Alert system to quickly alert author-

The province needs a Silver Alert system ... local politicians could and should be advocating for this. ities, neighbourhoods and emergency responders in the event someone with dementia goes missing. Local politicians could and should be advocating for this. Provincial politicians should also be discussing this as our population ages and more stress is put on health ser-

vices.

Don’t forget, you will be an elder someday. Don’t you want your city to accommodate you?

FEAR IS AN UNFAIR TACTIC Fear is a better motivator than thoughtful discussion when it comes to voting.

Scary video that seems to show people’s jobs and way of life being threatened, whether true or not, can do a lot to get people to the polls and vote a certain way.

For the mail-in proportional representation (PR) vote, the No campaign appears to be using fear tactics and videos suggesting riots and jackboots marching in unison in its TV ads arguing that extremist parties are elected through PR. In contrast, FairVote BC argues on its website that while extremist parties do

sometimes get elected in small numbers, they are often left out of coalition governments so they have representation but no power.

But countering videos of riots and jackboots could be a challenge for FairVote BC, not to mention the group has the additional difficulty of simply explaining how the new voting system could work.

Suffice to say that voters who are interested in the topic have their work cut out for them in sorting fact from fiction.

Can the BC Liberals get their mojo back?

BC Liberals supporters have been in the doldrums since they were dumped from power 16 months ago, but this past weekend may prove to be a turning point.

The party’s convention was energetic and featured a warmly received keynote speech by leader Andrew Wilkinson, who has been struggling to establish himself as a credible opponent to Premier John Horgan.

There was an energy there that has seemed lacking among BC Liberals from the moment they lost the confidence vote in the legislature.

At first angry at losing power despite winning the most seats and the most votes, the BC Liberals then became almost sullen and leaderless. Last February’s leadership convention sparked some life into the party, but you get the impression they are still getting used to being the Official Opposition.

However, the convention provided signs they have accepted reality and that if they want to change that to something better, key changes have to be made.

For one thing, there seems to be a recognition – from Wilkinson on down – that the party has to get more diverse. All political parties must start better reflecting the demographic makeup of the province’s communities.

Millennials make-up the single-biggest age grouping in the country, greater than Baby Boomers or GenXers. B.C., especially Metro Vancouver, has a rich cultural diversity and women make up half of voters.

The BC Liberals (and the BC NDP and the BC Greens) would do well to groom future candidates matching that new demographic reality, and run them in ridings where they have a chance at winning.

Wilkinson’s speech also revealed his party might have hit upon some issues that may resonate with voters. He talked of revamping ICBC while stopping short of vowing to end the government monopoly on auto insurance.

The BC Liberals have rightly been blamed for ICBC’s fiscal woes.

Nevertheless, as time goes by, and a series of significant rate hikes occur on the NDP’s watch, responsibility for ICBC headaches will shift.

Wilkinson zeroed in on another traditional soft spot for any NDP government tax increases. He promised to get rid of 18 of them, including the speculation tax, the employer health tax and a host of others.

The BC Liberals still have a ways to go before they can match the NDP for confidence and organization.

Horgan remains his government’s top asset.

However, time always inflicts a mounting number of scars on any government and the NDP will not be an exception. Perhaps for the first time since that lost confidence vote, the BC Liberals are finally showing signs they may be able to take advantage and begin to inflict a few political scars of their own.

Carjackers can’t start Porsche

Burnaby RCMP got an assist from a Porsche Boxster during an arrest of would-be carjackers in March. Plainclothes officers on a stakeout at Main Street and Terminal Avenue in Vancouver got a front-row seat as carjackers tried to steal the Porsche.The culprits forced two people out of the vehicle at gunpoint but were unable to figure out how to start the car. Police, meanwhile, maneuvered their unmarked vehicles into position and arrested them. Along with a 21-year-old from Port Moody, officers nabbed two Burnaby teens aged 15 and 16.

Pro rep gives voters the legislature they voted for Editor: Re: Sorting through prop rep rhetoric, NOW Opinion, Oct. 31.

According to Keith Baldrey, “Critics who point to right-wing populists like Ontario Doug Ford being in power due to a FPTP system conveniently forget that a whole bunch of NDP premiers – Dave Barrett, Mike Harcourt, Glen Clark, John Horgan, Allan Blakeney, Ed Schreyer etc. – benefited from the exact same system.”

I don’t agree. I think pro rep supporters are well aware that almost every majority government in B.C. since the introduction of party politics would have been a minority at best under pro rep. That’s the point: pro rep gives voters the legislature they actually vote for, without unfair distortion and without any built-in partisan bias.

Glen Porter, Burnaby

Editor: I believe that any form of proportional representation is a disaster waiting to happen, and I also believe that the current system is a disaster already happening. No amount of fiddling with our voting system will help. The way forward is simply to have everyone run as independents, and then have a run-off of all the elected independents to select a premier.

Ron Symonds, Burnaby

Thank you to the kind people who paid our bill Editor: On Oct. 22, we were having dinner at the White Spot on Lougheed at Gilmore. We are four housemates living with disabilities in a residential home on Eastlawn Drive. We had a wonderful meal together with our residential staff. There were six of us in total.

At the end of our meal, we were getting our finances in order to pay for our meal when, to our happy surprise, we found out the people sitting next to us had paid our bill in full.

We would like to shout out a huge thank you. It is rare to see such goodwill without the expectation of a thank you. Those wonderful people left the restaurant before we even knew what they did. Your generosity is met with huge gratitude.

Cops cleared in rollover

Burnaby RCMP officers accosted on Halloween

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

B.C.’s police watchdog says Burnaby Mounties were not to blame for a police-involved rollover crash last Halloween that left a man with fractures to his ribs, shoulder blade, collarbone and nose after he was ejected from a stolen van police were following.

On Oct. 31, 2017 at about 11:10 p.m., an officer patrolling in an unmarked police vehicle spotted a suspicious van parked at the tennis court parking lot off Patterson Avenue, according to an Independent Investigations Office report released Wednesday.

When the officer turned on the police vehicle’s emergency lights, the driver of the van drove away over grass, off a sidewalk and onto the roadway, according to the officer.

The officer didn’t pursue the van but did share a description and location with other officers in the area.

About half an hour later, an officer in another police vehicle spotted the van and broadcast its location.

A third officer in an RCMP pickup headed to the area to join the search, and, as the pickup headed north on MacPherson Avenue, it collided with the van, which had blown through a stop sign at Dorset Street, according police witnesses.

The van then hit an un-

Burnaby Mounties did a good job keeping their cool in the face of a stream of verbal abuse from a group of males setting off fireworks on Halloween night, according Burnaby RCMP’s second in command.

Supt. Chuck McDonald spoke to media Monday about a video circulating on Facebook that shows a group of men swearing at local RCMP officers.

The incident took place at Imperial Street and McPherson Avenue at about 12:15 a.m., on Nov. 1, according to RCMP. Two Mounties on patrol located a group of 10 males setting off fireworks, police said.

One of the men said he had a permit but, when asked to produce it, failed to do so.

He then became verbally abusive, according to police.

Outnumbered, the two Mounties called for backup, and the responding officers were also met with verbal abuse that was recorded on video and then posted online.

A total of seven officers eventually responded.

The video has gotten a lot of attention, much of it supportive of the RCMP. “It’s unfortunate that these individuals felt they

“All available evidence indicates that (the affected person’s) injury is the result of his failure to stop at a stop sign while attempting to evade the police,” concluded IIO chief civilian director Ron MacDonald.

While officers did speed

during their pursuit, MacDonald concluded they were “engaged in the lawful execution of their duty;” traffic in the industrial area had been light; and the roads had been dry.

“While the speeds were over the speed limit, they were not dangerously so,” MacDonald said.

He said the evidence col-

lected around the incident did not provide grounds to consider any charges against any of the officers involved.

Charges were laid against the driver of the van, however.

He has been charged with three counts of dangerous driving, auto theft, possession of a break-and-enter tool and identity fraud.

could engage with police officers in this manner and I am proud of each and every responding Burnaby member,” McDonald said.

“They were calm and professional in ensuring the issue was resolved safely and did not escalate.”

No arrests were made, and all the Mounties are shown leaving at the end of the video with the group of men taunting them.

When asked if he was worried about the message that was sent after so much disrespect being shown toward law enforcement officials, McDonald said no.

“Not at all,” he told the NOW. “Our focus in this situation was on de-escalating and ensuring everyone’s safety.That is precisely what our police officers did.”

Can structures help to feed hungry families Maria Rantanen

editorial@burnabynow.com

Charity and engineering came together at Lougheed Town Centre on Saturday as teams competed to build structures out of food cans – the food was going to the Greater Vancouver Food Bank, and the construction know-how came from architects, engineers, design students and drafting high school students.

Each team was challenged to build a structure of cans – around 4,000 for each team – based on the theme “it takes a village.”

Designs included Whoville, a beehive, HaCANa Matata, a village of Smurfs and CANada (with an explanation that “Canada” comes from the Huron-Iroquois word “Kanata” which means village).

Cynthia Kinsella, chief development officer for Greater Vancouver Food Bank, which distributes food in Burnaby, New Westminster, North and West Vancouver and Vancouver, said CANstruction will raise up to 25,000 pounds of food for the food bank, but it will also raise awareness about the nonprofit that distributes food weekly.

She pointed out the food bank has seen a 30 per cent increase in demand over the past year, while donations have been down.

“When you see your donations going down and needs going up, you hit a crisis,” she said.

Students from UBC’s applied sciences faculty and the School of Architecture and Landscape Archi-

tecture combined cans of beans, corn and tomatoes in a structure of a giant tomato surrounded by corn stalks, symbolizing the unequal access people have to nutritious food – one can see the tomato, but it is out of reach.

“Corn is an accessible grain – it’s cheaper but not as nutritious (as tomatoes),” explained Kaili Sun, an environmental design student. Barriers to accessing healthy food can be financial, social or political. “You can see through the wall (of corn) but you can’t reach it,” he added.

Students from New Westminster Secondary teamed up with Bosa Construction to build a 10-foot-high structure from colourful cans called HaCANa Matata, a visual scene from the movie The Lion King.

The structure the students were creating at Lougheed Town Centre required design thinking, empathy (“why do we care?”), thinking outside the box, then thinking inside the box, problem solving, physics, math, AutoCAD design and 3D printing, explained drafting teacher Val Pontier as he helped the students create cardboard pieces needed to hold up their structure.

Gary Pattern, New Westminster school district facilitator, said CANstruction fits well into the new curriculum being introduced into schools across the province.

In tech education, the focus is always on problem solving, Pattern said, and this is now embedded into all curriculum.

“It takes weeks to prob-

lem solve and get to this point,” Pattern said. Even being off by an eighth of an inch in their structure can make a huge difference, he added.

Tech education and projects like CANstruction help students develop skills that employers are looking for, Pattern explained.

“Kids need to have knowledge, good attitude and skills when they graduate,” he said. “Some of those things aren’t taught in the classroom.”

The crew at Fast & Epp had spent their lunch hours this week doing final prepa-

rations for their beehive for CANstruction, which they were creating jointly with SFU Community Trust.

This is the fourth time the Vancouver-based company is involved in the fundraising event, and twice in the past they’ve won the structural ingenuity category at the “Acanemy Awards.”

The beehive will be eight feet tall and will be lit up, explained Nikki Johnston, marketing coordinator with Fast & Epp “For us as engineers, we want to contribute back to society,” said Johnston. “(It’s) a great way to merge a great campaign with the work we do.”

A calculation by Caroline Manuel with Greater Vancouver Food Bank, showed the Whoville construction was contributing 48,272 grams of protein to the food bank.

Those who frequent the food bank tend to have higher instances of chronic diseases, Manuel pointed out, which is why they focus on nutritious food and also work with nurses from Vancouver Coastal Health.

Their tagline is “building strong and connected communities through the power of food,” she added.

The food bank has been focusing on distributing healthy food to its clients, especially hearty meals with

a lot of protein, Kinsella explained.

They are asking for donations like natural nut butters, canned fish, canned chicken, canned beans, soups and stews.

The 10 teams started building at 6:30 a.m. and had 12 hours to complete their structures.The struc-

tures will be on display until Nov. 10 and anyone can vote on their favourite design with a donation of $5 or three cans of food.

All the cans and cash donations will go to the Greater Vancouver Food Bank, which serves 27,000 people weekly in 13 communities.

Deer Lake Craft Festival returns for 47th edition One of Burnaby’s favourite pre-Christmas events is returning to the Shadbolt Centre this month.

The 47th annual Deer Lake Craft Festival is on at the Shadbolt Centre for the Arts Nov. 16 to 18.

The festival continues the Burnaby Arts Council’s tradition of jurying artisans for entry into the show, considering only those with highquality, hand-crafted products.

This year’s event features more than 60 artisans, including glass blowers, sculptors, potters, wood workers, jewelry and fashion designers and many more. Also available will be an array of seasonal foodstuffs – such as chocolates, mixed spices, Christmas cakes, cookies, jams, jellies, chutneys and designer honey.

A press release from the arts council notes the show includes a mix of returning and new artisans.

Among the returning artists are such favourites as Violet Finvers, with creative glass work; Jane’s Honey Bees, with local honey; and foodies Sable Shortbread and Coconama Chocolate.

New artisans include De.Jeffrey Pottery, Muck-

about Gift Gallery, R.K. Paintings and Reflective Room.

As always, visitors to the show will also be treated to entertainment throughout the weekend. Among this year’s performers are the Rocket Fuel Band, Eddie Lam, Carolyn Neapole, and the Snow Queen from Believe Entertainment.The Sm:)e Band, John Gonzales and Jeff Neufeld are all among returning favourites from past shows.

New this year, audiences will be able to enjoy a live painting competition on Friday evening (see related story at right, above), featuring a roster of experienced art battle competitors: Kwakwee Baker, Honeytta Eyvany, Sandra Trubin, Juan Pablo Vega, Jesse Wamboldt and Jessica Wiebe.

The arts council has also continued its tradition of creating a family-friendly, kid-friendly environment.

Volunteers from Burnaby high schools will be on site at Santa’s Workshop, where young visitors can find face painting, a hands-on art workshop and a chance to decorate their own free Christmas cookie, baked fresh from Sable Short-

The Deer Lake Craft Festival is kicking it up a notch this year and adding a live painting competition to the fun.

The 47th annual event, presented by the Burnaby Arts Council, is returning to the Shadbolt Centre for the Arts Nov. 16, 17 and 18.

Artists will go brush to brush in a battle for supremacy on Friday evening, from 6 to 7 p.m. in the Shadbolt’s main atrium.

Featured artists for the occasion will be Kwakwee Baker, Honeytta Eyvany, Sandra Trubin, Jesse Wamboldt, Jessica Wiebe and Juan Pablo Vega.

All the artists come with battle-ready resumes: Baker,Wiebe and Vega have all taken part in the arts council’s summer Park’s Edge Paint-Off events, while Eyvany placed third in the 2017 summer event and Trubin took third place in 2018.Wamboldt, meanwhile, was the winner of the 2018 summer event.

“Many people have never seen how paintings are created, and it is an exciting

spectacle to get a glimpse of what the creative process looks like first hand,” says a write-up about the event. “Mingle that with an emphasis on speed and the chance for prizes and recognition, and it’s a recipe for a fun, engaging event with thrills, excitement and culture.”

The artists will finish their work Friday evening, and the winner is selected by visitors, who can vote starting on Friday at 7 p.m.

Public voting will end on Sunday, Nov. 18 at 4 p.m.

Art lovers can take part in a live online auction for the artwork. Bidding begins on Friday, Nov. 16 at 7 p.m. and ends on Tuesday, Nov. 20 at 10 a.m. Half the funds raised go to support the artists, and the rest goes to the arts council.

Salmon are returning to Burnaby for spawning Locals can check out this year’s run at the Cariboo Road dam, Still Creek, Eagle Creek and more

Mark Angelo is a happy man.

The Burnaby resident and renowned fish protector – he ran the fish and wildlife program at BCIT and organized B.C.’s first Rivers Day event – is excited about salmon returning to spawn in local rivers and streams.

Angelo emailed the NOW a photo of a chum salmon swimming up Burnaby’s Stoney Creek. He says there are also quite a few salmon gathering at the Cariboo Dam at the outlet of Burnaby Lake on the Brunette River.

“Over the next few weeks, these fish will be traveling up the fishway over the dam, then across Burnaby Lake and into a number of local streams such as Eagle Creek, Still Creek, Guichon Creek, Deer lake Brook, and Buckingham Creek among others,” Angelo says. “To see this take place in the heart of our city is very special; an incredible spectacle to witness for both young and old. And to know that many of these fish will be returning to local streams, many of which have been reclaimed and restored over the years, is also exciting.”

November 2017 that compared to a record-breaking 1,800-salmon in 2016, numbers were down.

And this year? “(It’s) still too early to get an estimate, but I’ll be getting updates regularly from now on,” Angelo said. “The recent rains have helped in terms of fish moving up the Brunette River to the fishway at the dam.”

As for viewing spots during the next few weeks, Angelo said the dam just west of Cariboo Road near Government Street at present is a “great vantage point for locals, especially when water levels are a little lower.The

fish are easily seen.

If we get a lot of rain in the days ahead, higher water levels make the viewing there a bit more difficult but fish should still be visible.”

But over the next week or two, as these salmon move in to streams such as Still Creek, Guichon Creek, Eagle Creek and others, there are many good viewing points along those waterways, he said.

“Also, at present, some of the trails along Stoney Creek provide great viewing and should get even better in the coming week,” Angelo said.

Communitynow Help spread warmth with Coats for Kids campaign Local builders are hoping to smash past records – by collecting more coats than the 6,500 they collected for families in need in 2017.

The Greater Vancouver Homebuilders’ Association is asking the public to drop off lightly used and new coats at locations across Burnaby and throughout the Lower Mainland as part of its Coats for Kids campaign.They are also accepting new toys, which, along with the coats, will go to families in need, distributed via the Christmas bureaus

in the Lower Mainland.

Eight businesses in Burnaby will be drop-off points (see list below) from now until Nov. 30.

Chris Bayless with the Lower Mainland Christmas Bureau said clothing is something that is often overlooked.

“People think of toys and food around this time of year, but keeping kids warm is an essential need for every parent too, especially during the colder winter months,” he stated in a press release.

“Watching the relief on a

parent’s face who finds a size-appropriate coat for their child is a good feeling.”

Coats for teens are always in high demand, and, while some teens fit adult sizing, the coats need to appeal to their age group. For example, hoodies are popular with teens.

This is the 23rd year of the Coats for Kids campaign. In total, there are 54 locations in 14 municipalities across the Lower Mainland.

We had the same kind of business back home (shoe retail store). I did some research and talked to his brother that had a shoe repair store on Robson Street.

I worked for free to learn this trade. Also my other brothers did the same. Now we have four shoe repair and retail stores.

to take over the business and they have to close the store. I would like to train this dying trade to anyone who likes to learn and when they are comfortable, open a shoe repair shop and let them run

Q: WHAT PLANS DO YOU HAVE FOR THE FUTURE? For the future, I like to expand and open more shoe repair stores. Unfortunately, when someone retires from shoe repair, there is no one

it. But if they really want to do this trade (art). In another word I, do not charge them like any other trade they want to learn in a college but they have to promise to work with me to keep this trade alive.

Remembering the ultimate sacrifice Isabel Kolic

special to the NOW

As we go about our daily Canadian lives, in peaceful

streets, uncontrolled by dictatorship governments, shattered by invading armies, and free to live and worship as we please, we don’t often pause

to consider that what we have is a precious gift, and not one we received for free.

Hundreds of thousands of people have given their lives to fight for freedom and peace. And are still doing so, in countries around the world.

Relatively speaking, most of our nation’s children don’t know what it is like to fear for one’s life or safety, what the shaking of a house feels like during a bombing, or what it means to have food and supplies rationed. Most of them cannot fathom a life other than the comfortable one they already live.

It is important to teach our kids to appreciate Canada’s peace and freedom, and to show them who it was that attained it for them.

There are countless books available on the subject of Remembrance Day, the two World Wars, and on other conflicts past, recent and current.

way to show remembrance.

Taking an hour out of our the whole year, to observe a local ceremony on Nov. 11 at 10:30 to11:30 a.m. is a meaningful and touching way to show respect – and to begin to understand how fragile and hard-earned our peaceful circumstances are.

In the Heights, the Royal Canadian Legion #148 is hosting a short procession beginning at 10:30 a.m. at Albert and Alpha and ending at the cenotaph at the north end of Confederation Park.

The Remembrance Day procession and ceremony will occur no matter what the weather. And if the weather is lousy, please come anyway. We can remember that soldiers fought in all manner of difficult conditions and our one hour of cold and wet for us is nothing compared to what they endured for our sake.

Compass Cards created in honour of Canadian veterans Cards will help to support Legion’s Poppy Fund This Remembrance Day marks the 100th anniversary of the end of the First World War. To honour this important anniversary, TransLink has come up with some seriously cool Compass Cards that will raise money for a worthy cause.

“We are proud to release commemorative Compass Cards in honour of all Canadian veterans who have served our country,” said a news release about two cards emblazoned with poppies.

Adult cards are available at 25 SkyTrain stations across the system. Look for the Remembrance Day symbol on vending machines or contact Customer Information (604-953-3333) to find out where cards are still available. Adult and concession cards are also available at the Compass Customer Service Centre at Stadium-Chinatown Station.

TransLink will make a 10-cent donation to the Royal Canadian Legion’s Poppy Fund for each card purchased.

The transit agency also announced that veterans ride for free on all TransLink services on Sunday, Nov. 11 by presenting their military ID or record of service card.

One accessible fare gate will be left open at all SkyTrain, Canada Line and SeaBus stations.

!&$&$)!#"(& '#% Lest we forget HEROES

My grandfather taught me to honour those who didn’t return Chris Campbell ccampbell@burnabynow.com

When I look back at the heroes in my life, my grandfather Claude Golberg is near the top of the list.

Meeting him didn’t produce that feeling that you were meeting a heroic figure. He was really quiet and kind of blended into the background in group settings. He was pretty picky about what he would say, but when he said something it was usually hilarious and occasionally profound.

For much of my childhood years, grandpa was just a nice, sweet guy who tended to his garden on Oxford Street in North Burnaby and roamed the back alleys of neighbourhoods picking up people’s discarded bits that he would later refurbish into something usual.

He liked to putter, and a visit to his basement work-

shop was fascinating for a five-year-old boy.

Tools were cool.

I know, these sound like typical grandpa things and not real hero stuff.

That’s because it wasn’t until my teens that I discovered something heroic about him. I found out almost by accident that grandpa has fought for Canada in the Second World War. I think I had seen a photo of grandpa in uniform looking exceedingly dashing with his Errol Flynn moustache and holding a pistol.

At that point, I hadn’t really studied our country’s military history and was, frankly, pretty ignorant. I was still just a kid, and the Internet hadn’t been invented yet.

So I asked, “What’s with this photo of grandpa and why is he holding a gun?”

My grandmother, Hazel – the greatest cook in culinary history, don’t @ me – said something like, “Why don’t

you ask him about it?”

My grandpa was pretty friendly, but his quiet demeanor was a little scary to me as a kid because I didn’t want to bug him. It took a week or so of thinking about it, but I eventually asked him during a quiet moment while the rest of the family was in the kitchen.

Grandpa was sitting in his favourite easy chair – perhaps the most comfortable chair ever made, as I remember it – and I mumbled something about seeing the photo and could he explain it.

I don’t recall his exact words, but I remember the far-off look in his eyes as he said he had to leave his home and do his part for Canada. It was a short, but sweet explanation with exactly zero bravado. It was just something him and the other young men and women had to do, and that was it.

War Amps thank veterans As Remembrance Day approaches, I would like to pay tribute to the amputee veterans who founded The War Amps, which marks its 100th anniversary this year.

On returning from the First World War, they came together to help each other adapt to their new reality.They then welcomed the next generation of amputee veterans following the Second World War, creating the Key Tag Service to provide them with meaningful work and a service to Canadians

that continues today.

Recently I joined a young child amputee named Tiffany in laying a rose at the grave of Curley Christian, the only quadruple amputee to survive the First World War.Tiffany benefits from the Child Amputee (CHAMP) Program, just as I did as a teenager following a train accident.We paid tribute to Curley both for his sacrifices at Vimy Ridge and for helping to start a program that has assisted us and amputees across the

country.

Though they considered themselves to be “ordinary guys,” these war amputees served their country in wartime and continued to serve when they came home. I can say with pride that their legacy and sacrifices will be remembered through generations of amputees, like Tiffany and me, long into the future.

Teachers and students honour the sacrifices of the past and work for peace in the future.

Honour veterans on Sunday Continued from page 24 It was his humility that I found so astounding later in life when I learned about the war and the incredible sacrifices his generation made.They sacrificed their lives.They sacrificed some of the best years of their lives.They sacrificed a portion of their sanity if they lived through it and came home – suddenly having

to get on with their regular lives.

Grandpa just shrugged about it, despite the enormity of what he and others did. After that moment, when it came to Remembrance Day, grandpa did make sure that I attended the ceremonies organized by the local branch of the Royal Canadian Legion. I got the feeling he liked his two

grandsons going and being interested – even if he didn’t like to talk about it.

I encourage all of you to attend this year’s events.

Bold rally gives Knights a boost before playoffs

St.Thomas More draws Nanaimo for opening playoff match; places sixth on Conference honours list

Dan Olson

dolson@burnabynow.com

They’ve come from behind before, but Friday’s 30-22 win over Mission stood as a new achievement for the St.Thomas More Knights.

The varsity AAA football team fell behind 22-8 but used a second-half rally to turn the tables on the visiting Roadrunners and wrap

up the regular season with a 6-1 conference record.

Capitalizing on a handful of turnovers, the No. 2-ranked Knights demonstrated a calm, methodical approach to the comeback. A lengthy march to open the second half ended with Dario Ciccone carrying the ball in from 10 yards. And while Mission made a serious drive of its own in response, getting all the way to

fourth-and-goal at the four-yard line, that play saw Rickey Parsons pick off the pass at the goal line and dash 100 yards to tie the game 22-22.

Parsons played a pivotal role in the next turnover, this time in the fourth quarter, when he stripped the ball off a Roadrunner rusher inside STM’s 20-yard line, and Colin Dalla-Vecchia recouped to kick-start the winning drive.

Ciccone threw it to Michael Simone for a 20-yard major, followed by a two-point convert, to put the Knights in front to stay.

The Grade 12 quarterback, who was named the Eastern Conference’s offensive MVP two days after the game, completed 10-of12 pass attempts for 130 yards, with Simone catching five of those passes for 90 receiving yards.

On the ground, Marc Abboud

accounted for 75 yards on one carry, and Julian Valerio gained 70 yards over seven carries.

Defensively, a trio of STM players picked up six tackles each, including lineman Daniel Auld, linebacker Jack Wagner and Parsons, a defensive back.

Joining Ciccone on the awards’ podium were Auld and Parsons on the Conference’s defensive team, Continued on page 28

The Burnaby Mountain Lions’ Isabella Brunoro didn’t let the wet weather weigh her down.

The junior division runner stayed within striking distance of first place most of the race before finishing eighth at last week’s B.C. High School cross country championships in Nanaimo.

A runner with the Royal City Track and Field club, Brunoro completed the junior division race in 16:22 minutes, 52 seconds behind South Delta’s Madelyn Bonikowsky.

Right on Brunoro’s heels, by a mere split second, was St.Thomas More’s Milena Kalich.

The pair were the only local runners to crack the top-10 finishes at last Saturday’s event, which went on under rainy conditions.

The top senior results came from Burnaby South’s Shea Janke, who placed 48th in senior boys with a time of 22:42, two minutes back of first, and Christina Heslop of Burnaby Central, who finished 108 in senior girls in 29:02, just under six minutes back of first.

Central’s Ryan Goudron, at 33rd, was the fleetest junior boy, with a time of 15:12.

Nation’s top offence ready to launch national run

It’s a nice view, but Simon Fraser University men’s soccer team isn’t taking a photo of it yet.

Having spent most of the season as the No. 1-ranked team in all of NCAA’s Div. 2, the Clan is amidst some rarified air – with this week presenting an opportunity to fulfill a dream.

After reaffirming their No. 1 status for the West Region by blanking Montana State University last week, SFU launches the regional playoffs on Thursday

in Seattle, their ‘home turf,’ as the lone Canadian school in the NCAA. Being ranked highly won’t mean a thing if they can’t live up to their billing.

“It is nice to be recognized as the No. 1 seed (in the region) because I thought we put together a very good regular season and we were rewarded for it,” said Clan head coach Clint Schneider. “But none of that means anything unless we win games in the national tournament. Our

guys are used to playing as the favourite in a brand new season and we are excited to get the process started.”

And with a rare loss just a few days ago, a 2-1 setback to Western Washington that ended a 16-0-0 run, the club was reminded of how thin a wedge any game can be if their not at their best.

It’s the sixth time in the past seven seasons that the school has carried the regional No. 1 banner into the tournament.

The best offence in the

Great Northwest Athletic Conference managed just one shot on goal – a tally by captain Marcello Polisi late in the game – while Burnaby native Luciano Trasolini faced five shots.

That the Clan rebounded to beat Montana two days later was a good sign heading into the playoffs.

Forward Dzenan Bezdrob counted the winning goal in the 76th minute, while Polisi added some insurance late in the proceedings.

Trasolini, who didn’t face

a shot, picked up his 11th shutout of the season.

SFU enjoys a first round bye to the West Region bracket, with their first match coming Nov. 10 against either No. 4 Fresno Pacific or No. 5 Cal Poly Pomona.

The program has advanced to the Final Four on two occasions – in 2012 and 2013 – and carries similar expectations this time around, with a lineup that includes Cariboo Hill alum Rahid Rahiem and Burnaby

Central grads Eric de Graaf and Chris Guerreiro.

With the third-best average for goals-for at 3.39 per game, the Clan has garnered a lot of its reputation based on offence. Matteo Polisi leads the attack with 18 goals and 47 points, while Connor Glennon contributed 16 markers.

But the team has also conceded just seven goals over 18 games, with the fourth-best national goalsagainst average at .389.

SFU shines on mat Dan Olson

It was a five-win weekend for the Simon Fraser University wrestling team at the SFU Open.

Victories by Logan Nelson, Nishaun Randhawa and Taber Spray on the men’s side and Alex Hedrick and Serena Woldring for the women’s were highlights at the annual event, which drew wrestlers from 34 clubs Saturday.

Nelson, a native of Vashon Island, Wash., captured the men’s 79-kilogram division, powering through with three straight technical-fall wins.

Abbotsford’s Randhawa dominated the 97-kg category, beating his rival in a 10-0 technical fall.

Spray, who hails from Anthem, Ariz., took three matches by decision to claim the 70kg division title.

On the women’s side, Hedrick of Fair Oaks, Cal., registered a pair of

technical fall wins, then a 6-1 decision over teammate Lauren Mason to walk off with the 55-kg title.Vancouver’s Woldring was the final winner, overtaking four opponents in the 86-kg division en route to a title.

There were a handful of other Clan wrestlers who posted strong showings on the day. Nela Takufua finished second in the men’s 92kg division, while Alyvia Fiske (68kg) joined Mason as a second-place finisher in the women’s competition.

Securing third-place results were Nolan Badovinac (86kg), with a 4-1 record, Ciaran Ball, in the 125kg division, at 3-1, and Riley Prough (61kg).

Burnaby’s Sara Brinkac, in 62kg, shook off a quarterfinal loss to peel off three straight wins to place third.

The last two victories were by close decisions. Also placing third was Rebekah Trudel, with a 4-1 record in the 76kg category.

Knights named as all-stars

BURNABY/ TRI-CITIES WEEKLY SNAPSHOT HOME SALES*

B.C. government cracks down on condo and farmland speculation The B.C. government is aiming to crack down on two key areas of real estate speculation with new legislation introduced this week.

One of those pieces was the promised condo-flipping registry launched November 5, which is designed help crack down on tax evasion and create transparency in B.C.’s real estate market.

The new regulations will require developers selling presale condos and other strata units to report contract assignments on those units, and ensure all buyers are aware of the new rules. The new registry will be a database of buyers who have flipped the units that they purchased. This is intended to create much more transparency in the process, and will enable the B.C. government to pursue condo flippers for the applicable taxes.

The system as it currently exists allows a

buyer to sell on, or flip, a presale unit to another buyer for a higher price without a centralized record of such transactions, which has made it easy for unscrupulous real estate speculators to evade income tax on the profits made from the sale.

Carole James, Minister of Finance, said, “We will not allow real estate speculators and tax frauds to take advantage of loopholes in the system any longer, and this register sends a clear message. The days of avoiding taxes through condo flipping are over.”

NO MEGA-MANSIONS ON FARMLAND Farmland across B.C. is also set to be protected from real estate development and land speculation under a new legislative bill introduced November 5.

The B.C. government said that its new legislation “makes it clear that land in the Agricultural Land Reserve (ALR) is for farming and ranching in British Columbia,

not for dumping construction waste or building mega-mansions.”

Lana Popham, Minister of Agriculture, took aim at the former B.C. Liberal government in the ministry’s media announcement.

“The old government let wealthy speculators drive the price of farmland out of reach for young farmers and allowed some of our most valuable agricultural land to be damaged,” stated Popham. “We are protecting farmland in B.C. to ensure land is available now and for future generations of farmers.”

The ministry said it will reinstate one zone for all ALR land in B.C., so that all land in the ALR “benefits from the same strong protections.” It will also limit new house sizes on the ALR to less than 500 square metres [about 5,400 square feet], except in cases where it would support farming.

The province added that it will also crack

She is pre-deceased by her husband Malvern and sister Helen LaClaire of Australia. Pauline was born January 9, 1924 in Calgary, Alberta to Roy and Nellie (Duncan). In 1948 she married Mal and their daughter Jennifer was born in 1961. Pauline will be sadly missed for her love and unconditional support to her daughter Jennifer (Ronald Lauener) and grandchildren Joshua, James and Megan. Pauline spent her early life in Royalties and attended school in Turner Valley, Alberta. She graduated in Medicine in 1948 from University of Alberta then completed a specialty in Psychiatry. Her 32-year career with the B.C. Provincial Government included 29 years with Woodlands. It was at Woodlands that she filled the position of Director of Psychiatric Services and then Superintendent. This was a true testament of her accomplishment being the first female Psychiatrist appointed to a major Psychiatric facility in Canada. Alongside her career Pauline was a Director of CKNW Orphan’s Fund for 29 years. She also served on the Douglas College Board of Directors.

Pauline was a member of the New Westminster University Women’s Club and Canadian Club of New Westminster and the Fraser Valley. She also volunteered at the Genealogical Library. After retiring in 1984 Pauline and Mal enjoyed their motor home and taking cruises. With her passion for genealogy came many more trips. Jennifer and the family wish to thank the staff at Normanna, Sorheim Unit, for their compassionate and professional care given to Pauline.

A memorial service in celebration of Pauline’s life will be held at 2:30 p.m. Friday, November 9, 2018 at Kearney’s Columbia-Bowell Chapel 219 - 6 Street, New Westminster, B.C. If so desired, donations in Pauline’s memory may be made to the Alzheimer’s Society or to a charity of your choice.
