jdeutsch@thenownews.com Beach bums aren’t the only ones enjoying the prolonged sun and dry spell in Metro Vancouver; it’s been good for the local blueberry crop too. Sid Kwantes, the owner of Gaskin Farms in Coquitlam, said his crop was ready to be picked a few weeks early this season, and if the weather holds, it will turn out to be better than last year. “It looks like a good season. The blueberries are nice, they’ve ripened up nice,” he told the Tri-Cities NOW.

Normally, the farm would start picking the berries in August through to September, but the process began a few weeks early and will end early too. The 182-acre blueberry farm on Oliver Road yields about 675,000 kilograms, or 1 million pounds, of the berries a year, mostly for processing plants that send the product overseas. Kwantes noted the blueberry haul would be less this year, adding the numbers can fluctuate year-to-year. The optimal condition for blueberries to grow CONTINUED ON PAGE 5

Rescue efforts fail to save man

SWIMMER DIES AFTER STRUGGLING IN THE WATER AT SASAMAT LAKE IN PORT MOODY

Jeremy DEUTSCH jdeutsch@thenownews.com The deadly summer in B.C waters has claimed one more life, this time at a Tri-Cities beach. Police and paramedics were called to White Pine Beach at Sasamat Lake in Port Moody Sunday afternoon for a swimmer in distress. Police said a 24-year-old man was brought to shore by beachgoers, Metro Vancouver park staff and police. On Monday, the BC Coroners Service confirmed the man died in hospital later that day of his injuries. The victim’s name has not been released. The latest drowning brings the total across the province this year to 44. The man, who police say was at the lake with a couple of friends, was pulled from the water and taken to shore, where emergency responders performed CPR. Police said they were not sure how long the man had been in the water, but witnesses said the man was in the water for at least five to 10 minutes. A woman apparently saw the man struggling in the water, and alerted others on the beach. Some people dove into the water, but were unable to reach him in time. “They couldn’t get to him in time,” said one woman. “When they got to where he was, they couldn’t find him. They found him five to 10 minutes later.” Exactly how the man ended up nearly drowning in the lake is unclear, but Port Moody police noted the incident is still under investigation. Last Thursday, a 21-year-old Port Coquitlam man drowned in Alouette Lake in Golden Ears Provincial Park. Foul play is not suspected. Police and paramedics were called to the park in northeast Maple Ridge at about 3:45 p.m. that afternoon. “All efforts by both citizens and the paramedics were unsuccessful in reviving the vic-

The always-popular White Pine Beach was the site of a tragedy Sunday afternoon, as a 24-year-old man who was pulled from the water died in hospital later that day. tim,” RCMP Cpl. Alanna Dunlop said. His name was being withheld pending notification of next of kin. Ironically, the deaths come just as National Drowning Prevention Week gets underway. Wendy Schultencamper, education director with the Life Saving Society-BC and Yukon branch, suggested the biggest reason for the spike in drowning deaths is the combination of warm weather mixed with leftover from the spring runoff. She said people are out on the water earlier this year than in most summers. The Life Saving Society said there were 30 reported drowning deaths in the province at the same time last year and 56 by year’s end. Though most drowning deaths are preventable, Schultencamper said there is often complacency around safety precautions when

people are in the water. “A lot of people know this stuff, but it’s that idea that it’s ‘not going to happen to me,’” she told the Tri-Cities NOW. “No one expects to go out on the water and not come back.” The last four drowning deaths in the province involved young men in their 20s. That’s not a surprise to officials with the Life Saving Society, who note 80 per cent of drowning victims are male. “It’s not at all unusual to see young males within that age group having a higher drowning rate just because of their risk-taking personas,” Schultencamper said. According to the BC Coroners Service, a review of drowning deaths over the past five years shows that many victims are unfamiliar with the waters involved and therefore don’t

see the risks or underestimate them. The risks can include such things as unexpected currents, steep and sudden drop offs, or unusually high water levels because of heavy rains or late spring runoff. The review also showed that 40 per cent of drowning victims were impaired by alcohol or drugs. The BC Coroners Services has provided a number of safety tips: • Always wear a properly fitting personal flotation device (PFD) when engaged in boating or tubing activities. If you are suddenly thrown into cold and/or rough water, it may be impossible to find a PFD and put it on, even if you had one in the boat with you. Children, non-swimmers and weak swimmers should also wear a PFD when wading or playing in the water at a river or lakeside. • Be aware of the area where you are planning your activities. Check the weather forecast before heading out, and do a visual inspection of the area. Do not head blindly down a river or stream without being aware of the water conditions further downstream. • If you are hosting visitors from another province or country, ensure they are informed about the conditions that prevail in the lake or river you are visiting. Warn them about steep drop-offs, rapids and any other hazards. • Alcohol and water-related activities do not mix, any more than alcohol and driving do. Alcohol impairs your coordination and judgment, and this substantially adds to the risk inherent in swimming or boating. • Always supervise children anywhere near water. Pre-school aged children can drown in only a few centimetres of water, and the drowning is often silent. Proper supervision for children of this age involves always having them within arm’s length of a responsible adult. • Never dive into unknown waters. Unexpectedly shallow water or hidden obstacles underwater can easily prove fatal. — with files from The Province and Maple Ridge Times

Police look for man who assaulted realtor REAL ESTATE ASSOCIATION OFFERS REWARD

Jeremy DEUTSCH jdeutsch@thenownews.com While the man believed to be behind an alleged assault of a local realtor remains at large, it appears police are hot on his trail. Less than a week after releasing a detailed sketch of a man alleged to have assaulted the female realtor in Port Coquitlam, local Mounties have received a number of tips from the public. RCMP Cpl. Jamie Chung confirmed investigators working the case have received tips, but wouldn’t divulge how many. “We continue to want people to call in, and we wish to receive as many tips as possible,” he told the Tri-Cities NOW. “We’ll follow up with every single one of them until the person is identified.”

Coquitlam RCMP released the sketch of the suspect last week. The alleged incident took place on the afternoon of May 4, when the suspect showed up to an open house at a property on Rowland Street. Police alleged the man assaulted the female realtor. She did not suffer any injuries and was able to convince the suspect to leave. There have not been any reported incidents against realtors since the May assault. The alleged sexual assault has also prompted the industry’s provincial association to offer a reward to help find the suspect. On Friday, the B.C. Real Estate Association announced it would provide a reward of $10,000 to any person who comes forward with information that leads directly to the apprehension and conviction of the person responsible for the assault on the realtor. The BCREA’s chief executive director, Robert Laing, said the association has a duty to help its members when an incident like an assault occurs. “The message has to go out there, we’re going to be behind the realtors and protect

them any way we can,” he told the Tri-Cities NOW.

Laing said incidents against realtors are rare, adding the association is developing a public safety program for realtors so they don’t find themselves at risk. The BCREA’s reward will be available until July 18, 2014. “If it helps We continue to motivate somewant people to one to come call in, and we forward with information wish to receive that leads to as many tips as getting this possible. person off the street, we’ll be –Cpl.

At the time of the incident, he was wearing a T-shirt, jeans and running shoes. Anyone who might recognize the suspect is asked to call police at 604-945-1580.

Three weeks plus of sun helping crop CONT. FROM PAGE 1 is a mix of little rain or extreme heat. This summer’s weather has provided the perfect ingredients for the blueberry recipe. It’s been 25 days and counting since the last drop of measurable rain through much of the Lower Mainland, and that’s not expected to change in the near future. It’s a far cry from last year, especially in June, when there was far more rain than sun, and farmers like Kwantes were wondering if the crop would be a disaster. June 2012 rainfall totalled 76.8 mm — 40 per cent more than average — while sunshine was significantly down at 157 hours — 68 per cent under the average. In the end, the sun did come and the crop turned out pretty well. Though the weather has cooperated this year, Kwantes, who sits on the board of directors for the BC Blueberry Council, explained the market for blueberries has gone the other way. He noted blueberry prices this year have been down, adding the whole industry is struggling. In the case of Gaskin Farms, the operation has expanded it’s farm-gate sales to help turn a profit. “That’s the key to keeping us going,” Kwantes said, add-

Cop hit with bear spray OFF-DUTY OFFICER WAS ATTEMPTING TO IDENTIFY A SUSPECTED DRUNK DRIVER

Jeremy DEUTSCH jdeutsch@thenownews.com An off-duty Port Moody police officer on his way to work got a bit more than he bargained for after trying to catch up with a suspected drunk driver. According to a Port Moody Police Department press release, the incident began when an off-duty officer, on his way to work Monday morning at 5 a.m., noticed a possible impaired driver. The vehicle was randomly slowing and accelerating and weaving into oncoming traffic along Lougheed Highway in Coquitlam. The vehicle eventually stopped on the highway, while the driver and front passenger switched spots

before carrying on, according to police. As the officer called in the incident to dispatch, the vehicle pulled into the parking lot of the Pinetree Village Starbucks. Police said the driver got out of the car and appeared to be leaving the area. The officer then approached the vehicle, identifying himself as a police officer, while a total of four passengers got out of the car. When asked for identification, the driver allegedly pulled out a canister of bear spray and sprayed the officer in the face. Three of the four occupants fled on foot, while the officer arrested one at the scene. By that time Coquitlam

Mounties had arrived. Using a police dog, two of the suspects were located hiding in a vehicle a few blocks away, while a third was arrested a short distance from the scene. The officer was treated for exposure to the spray. Coquitlam RCMP Cpl. Jamie Chung suggested the off-duty cop did the right thing by calling 911. “Being an off-duty member, the dispatcher would know him, and since we work very closely with Port Moody, we were able to render assistance very quickly,” he said. Coquitlam RCMP are investigating the incident, but so far no charges have been laid. twitter.com/jertricitiesnow

Officials for Imperial Oil Ltd., the company that owns the huge parcel of land that includes the old Ioco Townsite, confirmed the company has received letters of interest from property developers. Christine Graves, a spokesperson for Imperial Oil, told the Tri-Cities NOW developers are at the stage of doing their due diligence with regards to the property. However, she wouldn’t confirm how many developers were interested and where they are from.

were hoping that qualified developers would be interested in the property, and that has been the case,” she said. Earlier this spring, real estate company Cushman & Wakefield released an information package regarding the sale of the lands. Prospective developers had until June 12 to submit a formal letter of intent. According to the package, the entire property is 232 acres of undeveloped land, including 150 acres in the Village of Anmore and another 82 acres in Port Moody. The prospectus also noted the lands have been fully remediated to residential standards, adding the lands have never been used for industrial purposes. The package put out by the real estate company suggested the property has “exceptional development potential.” “The eventual master planned community will combine the best of urban and rural living,” the document reads. “Enhanced by the historic Ioco Townsite, the community has the potential to offer public waterfront access to Burrard Inlet.

The site’s south facing topography provides waterfront views in a spectacular rural setting, offering access to nearby parks and lakes. “The proposed David Avenue extension will provide improved vehicular access to the site, while the future Evergreen Rapid Transit Line, approximately eight minutes away, will provide direct access to downtown Vancouver.” Port Moody Mayor Mike Clay, however, appeared skeptical that the oil company was serious about selling the land.

12 reported thefts from vehicles in 16-hour span Jeremy DEUTSCH

jdeutsch@thenownews.com It’s no secret vehicle thefts across B.C. have been trending down for a number of years. While the stat may be comforting to motorists, that doesn’t mean crooks aren’t intent on breaking into vehicles and stealing what’s left inside. A good case in point is a recent trend noticed by Coquitlam Mounties along the North Road and Lougheed Highway corridor. The detachment typically deals with about 20 to 30 reported thefts from vehicles in the area annually, but in the first six months of 2013, there have already been more than 40 incidents. The spike in thefts brought the RCMP and a group of community police station volunteers out Thursday to the area for a crime prevention blitz. The group was pounding the pavement and parking lots of the businesses and apartments in the community, putting crime prevention notices on vehicles. The notices tell motorists they’ve done a good job keeping their car secure, or offer suggestions to make improvements. “We want to remind people

LISA KING/NOW

Coquitlam RCMP Const. David Booiman said the North Road and Lougheed corridor is prone to theft from vehicles partly because some areas lack lighting. that leaving their valuables in their cars, regardless whether it’s Christmas or the middle of the summer, is still not a good idea,” RCMP Const. David Booiman told the Tri-Cities NOW. “It’s never a good feeling when somebody breaks into your car and takes your valuables.” And there are several possible reasons why the area is a popular target for thieves, according to police. Booiman explained the design of the area and the lack of proper lighting in some spots make it easy for criminals to hide and get away. Other reasons include

the close proximity to a SkyTrain station — which can bring increased crime — and the transient nature of the neighbourhood, being so close to Burnaby and New Westminster. Kathleen Nadalin, a road safety coordinator with ICBC, said blitzes and prevention notices like the ones handed out Thursday can make a measurable difference in the number of reported incidents. She noted the number of reported stolen vehicles in the province is down significantly over the last 10 years, but thefts from vehicles con-

tinue to be an issue. “People are still leaving stuff in their vehicles,” Nadalin said. Interestingly, the insurance corporation paid out $26 million in stolen vehicle claims in 2012, compared to $98 million in 2003. The average theft-fromvehicle claim costs the Crown corporation $1,000. “If you take everything out of the vehicle, it doesn’t have to happen,” Nadalin said. It’s not just the west part of Coquitlam dealing with the problem. There were 12 reported theft-from-vehicle incidents in a 16-hour span between July 21 and July 22, mostly in the Westwood Plateau area. According to Coquitlam RCMP, eight of the vehicles were not properly secured, which allowed thieves to gain easy access and rummage through the inside. The other four vehicles had their windows broken. Police noted a number of items were stolen, including a GPS, brief case with wallet and firearm licence inside, golf bag and clubs, video camera, purse and loose change. Mounties are advising residents not to leave anything in their vehicles, and to lock all doors and close all windows.

City backs TransLink, to a point Sam SMITH

editorial@thenownews.com They will and they won’t. Coquitlam city councillors have agreed to help TransLink fight for services, but won’t endorse its Regional Transportation Plan (RTP). The RTP is still in draft stage and councillors said

they couldn’t endorse something that would inevitably change — possibly drastically. However, they did agree to six other requests from the city’s engineering and public works department, including calling on the province to ensure TransLink has the necessary tools to imple-

ment regional plans, including transit, goods movement and road system projects, in a timely manner. TheyalsoadvisedTransLink that any future road pricing initiatives will need to be linked to transit expansion, such as increasing service in the developing northeast section of Coquitlam.

Council unanimously agreed on July 8 to take the RTP in for review.

When crooks go shopping, in your car

ver the years, the Tri-Cities NOW has used plenty of ink on stories quoting local police warning drivers to lock their doors and take their valuables out of the car. Yet, every few months, likely to the chagrin of attending officers, a crook decides to go on a shopping spree in someone’s car. Just this past week, Coquitlam Mounties reported a dozen vehicle break-ins in less than a day in the Westwood Plateau area. And all the usual items, like wallets and GPS systems, were on the intended shopping list. There isn’t anyone who can’t say that at some point in their busy lives they forgot about their phone, wallet or even the work laptop. Most of the time, you only realize your mistake when you get back to the car the next day — that laptop sitting patiently in the back seat. It would be awfully hard to explain to the boss why the prototype for the cold fusion reactor your company has been working on for years has disappeared. You got lucky. Unfortunately for some, their luck runs out. But what seems more shocking, according to RCMP, is that eight of the 12 vehicles involved in the recent rash of break-ins were not properly secured. An unlocked door or rolled-down window is beyond an invitation to criminals to steal your stuff. According to ICBC, the average theft-from-vehicle claim cost the Crown corporation $1,000. Police often say if a thief comes across a vehicle securely locked with no valuables in sight, they’ll likely move on. So at the risk of sounding like a broken record, follow the advice from the cops, so newspaper columns about break-ins become a distant memory, like the crime itself.

PARKING FEES A BAD IDEA

Re: “Pay to park at Rocky Pt?” Holy Moly — what a great idea to start collecting parking fees at Rocky Point Park. It would definitely keep people away from the park. Better yet, the City of Port Moody could contract the parking administration out to parking enforcement contractors like most regional hospitals do. Of course, the very small revenue left for the city by a very few parking-fee payers could be well spent, i.e. covering the cost of fireworks for different celebrations where the money would be shot up in the air — for what reason and why? Again, I say holy moly to the members of the city council. Juhani (John) Jokinen Port Moody

STILL AN INSPIRATION

Congratulations on helping to raise awareness of the story of Mary Steinhauser and her quest for prison reform in the 1970s. Bob Mercer’s letter, “A Portrait of Courage,” spoke for many of us who have studied the Steinhauser case. The memory of Steinhauser’s efforts is an inspiration to a new generation of social activists who choose to enter into that same lion’s den and touch people’s lives in positive ways.

Do scandals really matter?

o political scandals really matter when all is said and done? It’s a fair and relevant question to pose after the surprise result of the May provincial election. The B.C. Liberals, as scandalplagued as any long-serving government, actually increased their majority over the NDP. For weeks preceding the election campaign, the NDP had raked the B.C. Liberal government over the coals for a number of controversies and outright scandals, the most notorious being the so-called “ethnic memo” affair that saw the government caught red-handed using public recourses to further the political interests of the B.C. Liberal party. The ethnic memo sparked a crisis of leadership within the party, as Premier Christy Clark had to beat back a growing chorus of disenchantment in her caucus. Her party looked spent as it entered the campaign, but then the NDP did a strange thing: it decided not to even mention the scandal a single time in the campaign. But now, as the legislative session enters its final week, the NDP has become obsessed by new wrinkles to the old scandal. It is determined to breathe new life into the controversy, even though the individuals most heavily involved in the scandal have left government (the one exception is Richmond MLA John Yap, who lost his cabinet post but was re-elected). Given the scandal did not work to the NDP’s benefit in trying to win the election, one has to wonder what the motivation is now behind the decision to make the scandal pretty well the sole focus of the NDP caucus. It can be argued the NDP is simply doing the job of the Opposition, which

VIEW FROM THE LEDGE Keith Baldrey

is holding the government accountable for its actions. And there’s certainly no question the B.C. Liberals engaged in improper conduct (their own probe reached that conclusion before the election) and as much information as possible about that malfeasance should be aired in public. But another theory has emerged in some media commentaries, and it has to do with NDP leader Adrian Dix’s future. The theory is this: Dix is leading the latest charge on the ethnic memo scandal in order to shore up his chances of remaining the leader of his party. Dix faces a critical vote at the party’s convention in November, and he needs to re-establish his credibility with an understandably furious party membership upset about losing an election they were convinced they were going to win. He’s certainly earned some media coverage with this latest strategy, although not nearly as much as he got back in the spring over the same issue. But the B.C. Liberals are definitely not reacting the same way as they did back then, as Clark’s leadership problems have completely evaporated and the caucus’ gloom has been replaced with euphoria over the prospect of at least four more years in power. The other reality is that we are in mid-summer, and I suspect the public has pretty well tuned out politicians of all stripes and will remain tuned out

until after Labour Day. So, do political scandals really matter? In this case, the key question is, will this latest turn on the ethnic memo scandal matter to the NDP members who will vote in November on whether to hold a leadership contest? Will they be impressed by Dix’s performance in the legislature? Or have they also tuned him out, and no matter how effective his criticism is of the B.C. Liberals in this matter, aren’t willing to forgive him for seemingly fumbling the ball on the election’s goal line? The NDP lost the election largely because it wasn’t trusted on economic issues, and the scandals that plagued the B.C. Liberals for years turned out not to matter much with voters. But for the sake of his leadership, Dix better hope that political scandals do matter, at least to those who hold the future of his leadership in their hands. ••• Any doubts the NDP remains closely linked to organized labour have been dispelled by the make up of the panel that will review the party’s election loss. Four of the five members are from the labour movement, and perhaps more tellingly, they are from the public sector union side. For a party that supposedly prides itself on diversity, it’s odd it would select such a narrowly defined group of people to analyze the most disastrous election result in its history. Or perhaps it’s not so odd, and simply reflects the fact that public sector unions are the dominant force within the party. Keith Baldrey is chief political reporter for Global BC.

LETTERS GARBAGE SHOULD BE STORED INSIDE

Isn’t it time for Port Moody to restrict garbage can storage to the garage? It is that time of year again and the bears are out. If you think your garbage in your locked can is a good enough way to keep the bears away, think again. The bears have incredible noses and can smell food a long ways away. As I watched on Sunday from our deck, I watched a mother and her two cubs wander down the street to take a side trip to our neighbour’s yard. One blow with her paw and the steel reinforced lid gave in. Over with the can and into the garbage. Who is to blame for this? I suggest that the City of Port Moody take responsibility to create a bylaw to have residents store their garbage in their garage, or carport if they do not have a garage. It’s stinky, you say. Really? There are ways around this. But a dead mother bear and orphaned cubs are OK, all because we are “allowed to.” Because that is what will happen. The government will pay to have someone come

To the person who stole the package off my parents front porch last week: The UPS package you took, perhaps by accident, really contained nothing of value to you. It had my brother’s graduation photos and certificate from his master’s studies. We are incredibly proud of him for his accomplishments. He literally, literally went to hell and back to get his degree. He worked two jobs and many overnight shifts to pay his way through school on his own. That piece of paper is worth nothing to you, but means everything to us. Our grandparents will be heartbroken that they will not get to see his graduation photos because their frail health prevented them from going in person. Please return our package. No questions asked.

PoCo resident raises railway concerns Sam SMITH

editorial@thenownews.com It’s no secret Port Coquitlam is home to Canadian Pacific Railway’s third-largest transportation hub after Toronto and Calgary, but do residents actually know what to do if there’s an emergency there? That was the question posed by PoCo resident Michael Griffin during a delegation Monday, during which he asked the city to provide every resident with safety information. It’s a timely question, considering the recent train disaster that claimed 47 lives in Lac-Megantic, Que. “When they blow the whistle, I’ve no damned idea what they’re doing,” Griffin said. The retired industrial chemist spent his career in England and Canada, working, he said, in similar settings to that of the rail yard. “My responsibilities were the safe, efficient and profitable operation, including the safety of all plant visitors,” he said. “And they had to report to me to sign a release, but they’d already been screened at the gate and given a pamphlet as to what their requirements were for safety inside the plant.”

When it comes to the rail yard, which Griffin lives adjacent to, he said he doesn’t feel educated or safe. “In the refining, a long blast meant there was big trouble and you better get ready,” he said. “I believe there is some system whereby you — if there is a problem, you have to listen in to CKNW, if you can remember the station.” He added that there are no warnings available from the city, and that identification is another pitfall, pointing to the colour and signing of tankers as an example. “To the average citizen they wouldn’t know what the hell it is, other than flammable,” he said. “And it might be just a small discreet little notice.” In Europe, where Griffin worked, he said any tank trucks that are flammable have a big red band around them, yellow if they’re toxic, and a combination of both if necessary. Kevin Hrysak, media relations manager for CP Railway, told

the Tri-Cities NOW the company has a step-by-step process that involves working closely with local emergency responders to ensure any emergency receives prompt attention. “CP has a widely recognized emergency response plan that focuses on the safety and security of community and employees, environmental remediation, clean up and investigation,” he said. “CP emergency response plans are designed around specifics of the locations where an incident may take place, like our Port Coquitlam yard.” If an emergency happens, information will be available to residents from either CP Railway or local responders, Hrysak said. “Safety of our operations, the communities in which we work, and our staff is paramount,” he said. “This is our company’s first priority and this will never change.”

editorial@thenownews.com The number of bear sightings in Port Coquitlam doubled from May to June, causing city staff to crack down on residents not properly handling their garbage. Bylaw enforcement officers will be making sure garbage and food scraps are secure and set out at a reasonable time on collection day, or residents may face a $150 fine. Dan Scoones, manager of bylaw services for the city, said 98 bear sightings were reported in June, up from 50 in May. “While the same bears may be reported multiple times, the increase in sightings indicates that bears are increasingly being drawn to areas frequented by humans — usually by unsecured garbage carts, unpicked or fallen fruit from trees, and carts set out at the curb the night before collection day,” he said in a press release. “Bears will return again and again to known sources of food.” Of the 98 calls in June, 83 were sightings, 12 were bears eating garbage and two were reported as aggressive. Neighbourhoods with the most activity were north of Lougheed Highway and Nacht Avenue, as well as McPherson Drive areas in the south. The city is advising property owners to secure and lock up all potential food sources, including food scraps, beverage containers, barbecues and composts. In addition, they are asking residents to: immediately remove fallen fruit and pick fruit when ripe; ensure bee hives and bird feeders are inaccessible to wildlife; and ensure outdoor refrigerators or freezers are locked or inaccessible to wildlife. Bear sightings should be reported to the Provincial Conservation Officer Service at 1-877-952-8277.

Sprinkling restrictions will be in effect until Sept. 30. “Water use almost doubles during the summer, when seasonal rainfall is at its lowest,” the release states. “Despite the wet spring, it’s important to reduce outdoor water use throughout the summer to ensure sufficient supply to meet peak and emergency demands.” For residents with evennumbered addresses, lawn sprinkling is allowed from 4 to 9 a.m. on Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays. Odd-numbered addresses follow the same times on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays. Businesses with even-numbered addresses can sprinkle lawns from 1 to 6 a.m. on Mondays and Wednesdays. Those with odd-numbered addresses can water on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and non-residential property owners can water from 4 to 9 a.m. on Fridays.

Giant hogweed a threat to plants, people TRI-CITIES MUNICIPALITIES TAKE ACTION TO STAMP OUT THE INVASIVE SPECIES

Sam SMITH editorial@thenownews.com Giant hogweed is just as pleasant and welcome in the Tri-Cities as the name sounds: not at all. For years this invasive plant has been the bane of local plant life. Not only that, but this sucker doesn’t play nice with people, either. Its sap could have been the inspiration for the aliens in Alien, burning any human skin it comes into contact with (not as dramatically or intensely as in the films, but you get the idea). While the name is nasty, the appearance of giant hogweed can be deceiving. It stands between 10 and 15 feet (three and 4.5 metres) tall and has a three-foot (onemetre) wide drape of white flowers comparable to a florally decorated umbrella. But it doesn’t stop. It grows. And grows. It’s dangerous and it loves to spread. “It’s phototoxic, so you get the sap on you, then that part of your skin that’s got the sap on it, light hits and that activates the toxin and you get burned,” said Larry Englund, urban forestry manager with the City of Coquitlam. Fortunately, areas in the Tri-Cities have been fighting this invasive plant off for years, taking both precautionary and active measures. Coquitlam has had a noxious weed bylaw in place since 2010, specifically targeting giant hogweed and banning it from private property. In 2011, the city started tracking and removing it. “Relative to some other municipalities it certainly hasn’t gotten out of control, because we’ve been managing it,” Englund said. Port Moody and PoCo also list giant hogweed on their websites as one of the most dangerous plants in the area. “Giant hogweed is an invasive plant and it can pose a serious threat to human health and natural ecosystems,” the City of Port Coquitlam states on its website. The first plant on Port Moody’s list of invasive species to look out for is none other than giant hogweed. The list states that scars from blisters from this plant can last up to six years. The province also reported a major giant hogweed problem in Metro Vancouver on July 8, with the Invasive Species Council of Metro Vancouver anticipating treating eight hectares worth of the toxic plant this summer, twice the amount as last year. “It doesn’t take much for it to get out of control,” Englund said. “Just one plant can have upward of 50,000 seeds.” Any giant hogweed plant, especially near water, can be

‘Tis the season to get outside and enjoy the sunshine with friends and family. But for the 10 per cent of Canadians that the Arthritis Society says are living with osteoarthritis (OA), enjoying the warm weather isn’t always easy. Activities such as biking, golﬁng and gardening, for example, may be a challenge if they are suffering with chronic knee pain. “The pain of knee OA can not only impact one’s lifestyle, it can also have negative effects on productivity at home and at work, and on emotional health,” says Dr. Philip Baer, rheumatologist.“Working with a doctor to develop an individualized treatment plan can help patients with knee OA better manage their pain, so they can reconnect with their lives.” While there are a number of medications available to reduce the pain and discomfort associated with OA of the knee, it’s important to ensure that pain is managed in the safest way possible.

acetaminophen can lead to liver toxicity. There are other treatments, however, that can provide effective pain relief, are nonaddictive and well-tolerated.

Don’t mix

The effect of some medications can sometimes be increased or decreased when administered in combination with other medication, including prescription and over-the-counter (OTC) drugs, and even food. A health-care professional can advise on any potential interactions between medications.

Don’t overdo it

As speciﬁed by a health-care professional, when taking prescription and OTC medications, including acetaminophen or ibuprofen, do not exceed the maximum daily recommended limit.

Read and follow the label

Always follow the instructions for use of any prescription and OTC medications. It is also a good idea to address outstanding questions or concerns with a health-care professional.

Talk to a doctor

People with chronic pain should always consult their physician before beginning a new medication, whether it’s prescription or OTC. www.newscanada.com

Jr Adanacs poised to advance

Stories by John KURUCZ sports@thenownews.com

tifling team defence just called the bluff of the league’s most prolific offence. The Coquitlam Adanacs took a commanding 2-0 lead over the Victoria Shamrocks last weekend, outslugging the regular season’s highest-scoring club by a combined count of 26-14. The Adanacs opened up Saturday with a 13-8 win, and followed that up one day later with a 13-6 victory that puts them comfortably in the driver’s seat in the best-of-five series. Coquitlam can now end the B.C. Junior A Lacrosse League series at home on Saturday afternoon. “We’ve got a plan in regards to that the fact their top three scorers are high-powered players,” said Adanacs coach Neil Doddridge. “I think we match up quite well against them. We’re in tune with a lot of things that they like to do.” Sunday’s game in particular was a case study in suffocating defensive play, as the Adanacs limited Victoria’s time around the net as the game progressed — the regular season champs conceded just three goals in the final two frames, while pouring in nine of their own. “We stuck to our guns on the weekend,” said Coquitlam captain Tyler Garrison. “We took over on defence and our offence started to click. It was absolutely what our gameplan was and exactly what we were looking to do.” Though Victoria got on the board first in both games, those leads would be short-lived. Game 2 saw Wesley Berg torch the Shamrocks for four goals and two assists, while Reid Reinholdt also put up a six-point night (one goal, five assists). The rest of the damage came courtesy of Chase McIntyre and Challen Rogers, who each tallied twice, while singles went to Steven Neufeld, Vincent Ricci, Cole Kryworuchka and Garrison. Davide DiRuscio started Game 2, making 15 saves on 20 shots, before giving way to Island native Peter Dubenski to close things out. The Nanaimo product allowed just one goal on 24 shots. “We had outstanding goaltending in Game 2. But honestly, we played our system and that was the difference,” Garrison said. Saturday’s Game 1 was Coquitlam’s first time on the floor in close to two weeks, and first meaningful game in more than a month. Rust be damned, the defending six-time regular season

Coquitlam’s Chase McIntyre, seen here evading a pair of Victoria players earlier this year, potted six points (two goals and four assists) in the Adanacs’ series opening wins over the Shamrocks last weekend. champs got key contributions from their key veterans: Berg (one goal, six assists) and Reinholdt (four goals and three assists) each tallied seven points, while Ricci found the back of the net five times. Sam Goodman, Tyler Buchan and Neufeld rounded out the scoring with a goal apiece. DiRuscio played the entire contest, making 24 saves on 32 shots.

“We’re very fortunate in that our leadership group is quite strong,” Doddridge said. “They have been to Minto Cups before, so they know what it takes to get to that point. It’s not like they’re learning on the run.” Coquitlam can close out the series Saturday. Game time is 3 p.m. at the Poirier Sports Centre. If necessary, Game 4 will be played in Victoria on Sunday.

els to Queen’s Park to take on the Salmonbellies. They then close out the year at home Saturday against the Lakers. “We’ve got to keep our energy levels way up,” said Adanacs coach Bob Salt. “The ’Bellies are a good team anyway, but they are fabulous in Queen’s Park. We have to match their energy level and that’s the key.” Coquitlam is in the midst of a three-game winning streak, and is coming off a pair of gutsy victories last weekend over two teams nipping at their heels for the final playoff position. On Sunday, the A’s scored seven unanswered goals in the third period to best Maple Ridge 12-9 in a game that saw both

Matthew Dinsdale and Brett Hickey record hat tricks. Daryl Veltman was the man of the hour one day earlier, as the veteran Coquitlam sniper potted four goals — including the 9-8 game winner over Nanaimo with less than four minutes to play. “We seemed to really come together in both games. We competed like crazy and played right to the end,” Salt said. “We got some very good goaltending from [Adam] Shute, which really helped us. We need that type of goalkeeping.” Saturday’s regular season finale goes at 7 p.m. at the Poirier Sports Centre.

Coquitlam controls its own WLA destiny

There isn’t a more straight-forward directive in the sporting lexicon — win and you’re in. That’s the scenario facing the Coquitlam sr. Adanacs, as the club prepares for its final two Western Lacrosse Association regular season games this week against New West and Burnaby. The Adanacs currently sit with the fourth and final playoff spot: one point up on Maple Ridge and two points ahead of New West. If the Adanacs win out, they could find themselves in third place once the dust settles. The work begins in earnest Thursday, when Coquitlam trav-

Hyacks repeat as B.C. champs in the pool

Tri-Cities swimmers made history earlier this month. The Hyack Swim Club repeated as the provincial long course champions for the first time in the club’s existence, a feat that was made possible, in part, by the efforts of local swimmers Sara Whelan and Brodie Young. Whelan, 15, netted the most points for the team, while Young, 12, nabbed his first medals and finals placements at the provincial level. Sara Whelan took golds in the 400 metre and 800m freestyle events; silver in the 100m

breaststroke; bronze in the 200m free; fourth in the 400m individual medley (IM); fifth in the 100m free and eighth in the 200m IM. Young, on the other hand, copped silver in the 200m breaststroke and bronze in the 100m breaststroke. Here are results from other Tri-Cities swimmers: Chris Baker, 15, fourth in 50m free and 100m fly; fifth in 200m fly and 200m IM; Mia Bottrill, 16, bronze in 200m fly; fourth in 100m fly; sixth in 800m free; Cristian Cristurean, 16, bronze in 1,500m free, eighth in 200m

The event will run Jan. 24 to 26, 2014 at the Poirier Sport and Leisure Complex. The recently-revamped site most recently played host to the 2013 Tim Hortons B.C.

The event culminated in the day’s final competition, when the Hyacks’ senior boys medley team won their race after their Richmond counterparts were disqualified for a lane infraction.

COURTING IN QUEBEC

Tri-Cities volleyball standouts Alessandra Gentile, Nicole Cornwall and Katie Devaney have been selected to Team B.C. ahead of next month’s Canada Summer Games. A Heritage Woods grad, Gentile is a setter/ride sight hitter, while Devaney, a Terry Fox alumna, patrols the middle of the court. Cornwall, a Coquitlam native who recently graduated from Dr. Charles Best, is a setter. Each player is coming off all-star campaigns in their graduating years, and will compete for national bragging rights from Aug. 2 to 18 in Sherbrooke, Que. The 14-member team will play in a pool alongside clubs from Saskatchewan, P.E.I., the Yukon, Alberta and Ontario.

A self employment opportunity

jdeutsch@thenownews.com School District 43 officials knew they would have to make cuts to deal with a ballooning deficit, and on Tuesday employees and the public learned just how deep the reductions will be once the budget is done. To make up for a $12.1-million projected operating deficit for the 2013/2014 school year, the district is looking at cutting six per cent of its staff across the board. More specifically, it’s proposing to cut 142 pos-

itions within the district. A further breakdown of the numbers has the district cutting 81 teachers, 19 teacher assistants/special education assistants/youth workers along with 32 clerical/custodial/IT and facilities positions and 10 from administration. The staffing cuts add up to $11.5 million in savings. Some of the positions being cut will be offset by attrition, with as many as 30 staff in various positions already putting in their retirement papers for the end of the year. CONTINUED ON PAGE 5
