Legion poppy campaign facing major losses Delta Legions facing financial crisis due to pandemic CAMERON THOMSON

C o n t r i b u t i n g Wr i t e r

Delta Legions are expecting a major loss of donations during this year’s poppy drive fundraising campaign due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

During the first wave of COVID19 the Ladner Branch of the Royal Canadian Legion shut down all operations for three months, reopening at the end of June. During that time Delta residents raised approximately $21,000 through a combination of a GoFundMe campaign and donations dropped off at the door.

“That paid all of our bills when we were closed, kept us alive,” said Ladner Branch No. 61 manager Jacky Hillairet.

Hillairet expects COVID-19 to wreak havoc on the Legion’s finances again though as the three cadet squadrons the Legion sponsors are no longer able to take part in the poppy drive, the Legion’s largest fundraiser of the year.

According to Hillairet, on a good year, 828 Hurricane Squadron, 819 Skyhawk Squadron and the 1867 Seaforth Highlanders can bring in about $20,000 for the Legion. Should a loss of that size occur, it could essentially cancel out donations received during the shutdown.

“It’s going to be really hard for the poppy fund,” Hillairet said. “It’s going to hurt us huge.”

While cadet corps are not able to take part, Ladner Legion poppy sell-

Both Legions fear that poppy sales will be down significantly this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic. ing volunteers will stand behind their donation boxes at a safe distance at the following Ladner locations: London Drugs, FreshCo, the BC Liquor store, Save-On-Foods and Jarry’s Market.

While poppies are still going to be distributed by stores and corporate sponsors of the Legion, there are only enough volunteers signed up to sell

poppies for the first week of the fundraiser starting Friday.

As COVID-19 has created an emphasis on using credit or debit cards for transactions, Hillairet is concerned donations will also be scarce this year because fewer people will have cash on hand.

The Tsawwassen Legion’s poppy drive will also not be assisted by local cadets, instead poppy donation boxes will be placed around the community and will operate on a trust-based system.

Legion president Bill Belsey says the branch usually has a booth in the Tsawwassen Town Centre mall, but won’t be able to supervise the booth with volunteers this year, adding that booth alone can raise anywhere from $5,000 to $9,000.

In previous years, between the booths and volunteers scattered throughout Tsawwassen, Belsey says the Legion averages $30,000 to $35,000 in total poppy drive donations.

“I think we could expect a 20 per cent drop,” Belsey said. “If that’s all it is we’re probably pretty happy.”

Belsey said while the Legion has sufficient numbers to operate, they are always looking for more, adding that volunteers can help out by not only distributing boxes, but counting and cleaning them too.

Donations to either Legion can be made online at https://legion.ca/ donations, in person into a donation bin or visiting the Legions for a social outing and supporting their food and drink services.

Paton has mixed feelings after winning Delta South SANDOR GYARMATI

s g y a r m a t i @ d e l t a - o p t i m i s t .c o m

Ian Paton has mixed emotions following Saturday’s provincial election, which saw him win a second term in Delta South for the Liberals by a wide margin, while the fortunes for his party went south.

“I’m very grateful and I think people know me as the kind of guy if someone, and it doesn’t matter who, walks past me on the street in Ladner or Tsawwassen, I always like to say good morning, and if you’re ever walking past my office, please pop in and have a coffee. I think people appreciate that,” Paton told the Optimist Monday afternoon following Liberal leader Andrew Wilkinson’s resignation announcement.

Premier John Horgan’s decision to call an early snap election during COVID-19 paid off as the NDP increased its 41-seat minority into a 55-seat majority, according to preliminary results Saturday night.

Hundreds of thousands of mail-in ballots still have to be processed, but the early numbers already had the NDP winning its largest majority in B.C.’s history, taking out several high-profile Liberal incumbents along the way.

The Liberals won just 29 seats while the Greens have three again.

Paton said it should be no surprise a party leader steps down following such a loss, and that it’s also sad to see so many quality MLAs lose their seats.

He noted that his party will hopefully secure additional seats following the count of mail-in ballots and afterward will start the selection of finding a new leader as Wilkinson stays on for the interim.

Paton alleged the NDP knew they’d be calling an election months before it was announced, while giving just over a month’s notice for everyone else.

Paton said Health Minister Adrian Dix, as well as Horgan, used their opportunities to stand with provincial Medical Health Officer Dr. Bonnie Henry during her updates to reiterate how the government has done a good job dealing with COVID-19, all the while Wilkinson was challenged getting such media exposure.

“We did agree as the B.C. Liberals and the Green Party to work closely with the NDP through all this, through all the financial woes and health woes, but there was a broken promise,” said Paton. “My dad always taught me in business when you shake somebody’s hand or sign a contract you stick with that. John Horgan broke a contract with Sonia Furstenau and the Green Party and he broke the legislation of a fixed election year from now.”

FILE PHOTOS

Ian Paton, right, was re-elected in Delta South Saturday night besting NDP candidate Bruce Reid, top left and Green candidate Peter van der Velden, bottom left.

Paton added he and his family’s many years of community involvement gave him valuable recognition in the riding where he was raised.

Thanking his volunteers and those who took the time to vote for him, Delta South NDP candidate Bruce Reid said he congratulates Paton, but it’s disappointing someone once again representing Delta South won’t be in government.

Fortunately, the New Democrat government won’t be penalizing the riding as a result, he noted.

“I still want to make myself available to the NDP party to represent South Delta as much as I can because it’s obviously something I believe in,” said Reid.

“I’m not really surprised by the overall projection because a majority government was projected and they also projected that this riding was still a safe Liberal riding. I’m still happy that it looks like our total vote count is going to be up, so that means we are making some inroads.”

Green candidate Peter van der Velden said he’s glad the Greens appeared to be making progress in the riding, adding his

late entry in the race may have cost them some additional votes.

Receiving endorsement from former twoterm Delta South independent MLA Vicki Huntington, van der Velden said he’s proud what the Greens have been able to accomplish in B.C. “I think we did fairly well. I would like to have seen us do better, but the big thing for me was the timing of the election. It was no accident, I think, they (NDP) called it because probably within a month we’re going to get the report on geotechnical issues for Site C (dam project) and I think B.C. is going to have to wake up to the fact we have a multi-billion dollar white elephant on our hands and that’s not going to reflect well on John Horgan or the NDP, and of course the Liberals are going to be tainted with that brush as well,” he said.

Paton won Delta South on election day with 8,644 votes (52.42 per cent of the popular vote), ahead of Reid who had 5,358 votes (32.49 per cent) and van der Velden who had 2,487 votes (15.08 per cent).

Paton in the 2017 election received 44 per cent of the popular vote.

WHY CHOOSE 505-JUNK

A local business owner is expressing her gratitude to members of the community and the Delta Police after a tablet stolen from her business was returned.

The morning of Oct. 23 is likely one Jennyfer Cassar will not soon forget.

Cassar was cleaning her newly opened business Nook Play Studio in Tsawwassen, when a voice came through the door alerting her that a man had allegedly reached through the open door, grabbed a tablet that was sitting on the front desk and ran off.

Cassar said a brief foot chase ensued, but the man, still clutching her tablet, got on a bicycle

and made his getaway down 56th St. “I came back dejected, gutted,” Cassar said. “It was a $400 tablet and I just opened. I was kicking myself for such a stupid mistake.”

The voice that alerted Cassar to the alleged theft belonged to Caitlin Duffus who had been waiting for her mother to come out of a nearby store. Duffus offered to drive around to see if she could see the man who took the tablet and sure enough she saw him board a bus and called the police.

DPD officers soon boarded the bus, located the man, with the tablet and proceeded to arrest him for theft.

Cassar’s tablet was returned to her the next day, but she says the lessons from the previous

BOOK JUNK REMOVAL

day’s events were not lost on her.

“For me it was just a big learning moment,” Cassar said. “I feel grateful that the DPD were so quick in calling and knew what I needed in order to get what I wanted back.”

In the stress of the day, Cassar didn’t manage to get Duffus’ contact information, so she took to Facebook and posted in the Tsawwassen Loop (NEW) thanking her and another man who joined the foot chase.

Duffus eventually connected with Cassar, but the identity of the other Good Samaritan remains a mystery.

“I’m thankful that people continue to be selfless and continue to have a sense of community,” Cassar said. “You hear about a little rash

of crime here and there but at the end of the day there is a sense of community here and there’s a reason why we have such a tight knit community.”

DPD spokesperson Cris Leykauf said calls with detailed descriptions of the suspect, the nature of their departure, time and other details are helpful in leading to arrests.

“We’ve had successful arrests in the past when that happens and we really do appreciate the assistance of the community when people include this kind of information when it’s phoned in,” said Leykauf.

Leykauf added the police file generated during Friday’s events indicates the man is not from Delta. He will next appear in Surrey provincial court in January.

Delta students elect Paton, Kahlon SANDOR GYARMATI s g y a r m a t i @ d e l t a - o p t i m i s t .c o m

If it was up to Delta students, Ian Paton would be the MLA representing Delta South and Ravi Kahlon would represent Delta North.

Twenty-one Delta elementary and high schools participated in Student Vote BC 2020, casting their ballots this week prior to election day Saturday.

Based on current tallies, more than 85,000 B.C. students cast ballots, representing all 87 electoral districts in the province.

Students elected John Horgan and the NDP to form a majority government with 59 out of 87 seats, and 40 per cent of the vote.

Horgan also won in the electoral district of Langford—Juan de Fuca.

Sonia Furstenau and the B.C. Green Party took 16 seats to form the official opposition, receiving 28 per cent of the popular vote.

Furstenau also won her electoral district of Cowichan Valley with 49 per cent of the vote.

Andrew Wilkinson and the Liberal Party only won 12 seats and received 25 per cent of the vote. Wilkinson did win his electoral district of Vancouver, if it was up to students.

Trevor Bolin and the Conservative Party of B.C. won one seat. Bolin won in the electoral district of Peace River North.

The Christian Heritage Party of B.C. won one seat. Rod Taylor was elected in the Stikine electoral district.

The Student Vote program saw a total of 1,035 B.C. schools register to

participate.

During the experience, students learned about government and the electoral process, discussed important issues facing the province and voted for the official election candidates in their ridings.

Students also took on the roles of election officials and coordinated the voting process for their peers.

The program had to adapt to the COVID-19 pandemic and the new safety protocols required in schools and classrooms.

Project activities were adapted to allow for physical distancing and online learning, with additional digital resources available.

While most schools voted using traditional paper ballots, schools were also given the option to vote online.

DPD focusing on troubled youth after Ladner vandalism

Delta police say they have identified a number of youths behind an increase in graffiti and vandalism in Ladner the past few months.

According to a DPD news release issued Friday afternoon, incidents include private vehicles being spray painted, public washrooms in parks being vandalized, a restaurant targeted with derogatory graffiti and a broken window at a business.

Const. Ken Kirk, head of the District Community Police Office in Ladner, has now identified all the youths involved in those instances, and has spoken both with them and their parents/guardians.

“Given the ages of those involved – averaging 13 and 14 in grades 8 and 9 – I wanted to ensure we dealt with this via education as a first

step,” said Kirk.

He has involved the Delta School District, the DPD school liaison officers as well as the police youth team, which works with youths with more complex needs. Options to provide positive activities for teens during the COVID-19 pandemic are also being explored, as many typical activities may be curtailed now.

“Our concern is that we want to ensure these kids get on the right path, and that they have the resources in place to support them,” said Kirk, adding that he has also taken tougher measures when needed, seizing drugs, and in one instance recently, a 16-year-old was arrested after alternative measures had failed. In that instance he caught the teen in the act of committing vandalism.

“We’re trying to ensure we deal with this as a community. We’re working with local businesses, property management companies and the City of Delta to provide estimates of repair costs,” he said. “The possibility of restitution is an option that we would like to explore.”

He emphasizes that it’s a small group of teens, but acknowledges the challenge is that collectively they might be hurting the overall reputation of youths in the community.

“We have a lot of really good kids here in Ladner – some of them even volunteered for Delta Police – and I don’t want to create any wrong impressions, but I know there’s been frustration with the ongoing vandalism, so I wanted to provide an update to the community,” he said.

Editor’s Note IAN JACQUES

C

ommon sense and a reality check is in order for many people in our communities.

On Monday, Provincial Medical Health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry put in a new public safety order, which limits all family gatherings to residents of that household and no more than six extra people. In fact, Henry said that in a larger household, six extra guests could be six too many.

The enhanced health order comes following a surge of COVID-19 - almost 1,500 cases in six days – with 78 per cent of those in the Fraser Health region, which serves communities like Delta and Surrey.

Many of the cases have been directly linked to large family gatherings, celebrations of life, weddings and likely larger gatherings during the Thanksgiving long weekend – despite discouraging such events.

On Monday, Henry called the weekend three-day total of 817 new cases a “sobering weekend.”

I would call it a huge wake-up call.

For weeks, as cases have been rising, health officials have been begging and pleading for everyone to stop with the large gathering and parties. To close down your social circles while continuing to practice social distancing, frequent hand washing and wearing a non-medical mask in enclosed spaces.

Many have been following the medical advice, but clearly many have not, which necessitated Henry’s new public health order.

And while Henry has not made it an order to wear masks in enclosed spaces, simply encouraging the practice, I think it should be mandatory.

That means wear a mask when you are out shopping, heading into a restaurant or coffee shop and visiting a recreation facility. Delta already has an order in place requiring this.

The time to be passive is over. If we are going to bend back the curve and get COVID-19 cases under control, we all must take every effort to do so. Stop ignoring the health orders. Stop being selfish and start practicing some common sense.

Farm Roots puts the finishes touches on harvest time

I

look forward to harvest time every year. Enjoying the finished product from a lot of hard work is certainly rewarding.

The Farm Roots farm held its final Thursday market last week, and as usual, the offerings were fresh and fantastic. The market and the produce will be missed, but what was gained this year was a far better understanding of what our customers prefer to consume which will certainly help us in our crop planning for the spring.

As I have mentioned before, Nicole Bruce and her SOYL team did a great job of managing the farm this past summer.

In late August, Jasmine Bal, who has been working the farm for the past few years, took the reins and kept the food coming off of our beloved little field.

Jasmine has basically been on her own for the past couple of weeks and has been harvesting for the farm stand and beginning the process of breaking down the site in preparation for plowing and fall cover crop.

Our now clearly sought after Russian Red garlic is in the ground and will once again adorn the kitchens of many in Boundary Bay next July.

Community Comment MIKE SCHNEIDER

After a few years of operation, we are getting a good sense of what our best sellers are and our farm offerings will reflect this. Additionally, we have the backing of Darren Gates and his top notch chefs from Marios and Gracies who have been supportive of our programming for the past couple of years.

Rounding out our best sellers for the coming year will be additional crops that will augment our community supported agriculture (CSA) program for next spring. This program will further support the vegetable needs of the Boundary Bay community who have been so very supportive of our operation.

Although COVID-19 has presented challenges in keeping

regular educational programming in place at Farm Roots, the field will continue to be productive so that the needs of the local community can be met. This includes allotting a percentage of our crops for weekly contributions to the South Delta Food Bank and to families who are in need.

Small operations like ours really do stand out as an example of what can, and probably should be done in communities elsewhere.

Hard work and collaboration in the spirit of social enterprise will ensure the long term success of Farm Roots.

Eventually, students will once again have the opportunity to gain a better understanding of the importance of the agrifood industry and its contribution to our economy.

Food sovereignty starts as close to home as you can be, and on behalf of everyone who has been involved with Farm Roots, we thank you for the support you have shown us.

Spring will be here before we know it!

Letters

Column made good points

Editor: Thanks to Pastor Danny Stebeck of Ladner Christian Fellowship for his article that appeared in the Delta Optimist on Oct. 22.

Well written, clear and to the point...it was refreshing to read something that challenges contemporary values that are often centered upon greed, self-glorification and a lack of respect.

Sadly, the dark side of Halloween along with horror and gore is rarely linked to the real pain and victimization that many individuals face. Evil as a

concept and its focus upon fear, hate, suffering and the hurting others should not be glorified nor celebrated within a cultural cloak of “fun” and “thrills.”

One only needs to speak to the victim of a violent crime to appreciate the horror and fear that they faced while being victimized. There is nothing funny nor thrilling about being hurt and certainly no reason for our enlightened society to celebrate “evil” by way of fear, gore, horror and the gruesome aspects of Halloween.

Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy Halloween and

there most certainly is a place for fun and positive, respectful costumes and celebrations.

Unfortunately, over the years Halloween has taken on an unchecked dark side that should cause us to pause and think. Do we really need more fear, gore and horror in our lives?

Whether one is a follower of Christ or a nonbeliever; Pastor Danny Stebeck’s points are well made. Contemporary community cultural values would do well to learn from the religious tenets of Christianity.

Editor: We want to thank a very honest man named Harry who may be a city worker or farm worker in the Ladner area.

Recently he went out of his way during his working hours to handdeliver a wallet he found in the middle of Ladner

Trunk Road, belonging to one of us. It was quite early in the morning when he came to the house and we were too shocked at his discovery to respond with more than a thank you and a blessing on him and his family. Not until later did we realize a greater

reward would have been appropriate because honest Harry had not removed any of the cash contained in the wallet.

We apologize for our misstep, Harry, and trust that at some time in your life a greater reward will come your way.

J. & B. Armstrong

Thank you for your honesty

The surge in COVID-19 cases, particularly in the Fraser Health region, has prompted the province to enact a new order further limiting the number of people at social gatherings, something the City of Delta had called on the province to do several weeks ago.

Provincial Medical Health Officer Dr. Bonnie Henry on Monday said a new limit will be imposed whereby household parties will be limited to immediate families plus a so-called “safe six” in order to help reduce the spread.

Mayor George Harvie at council Monday said the health order will be enforceable by bylaw officers, police officers and environmental health officers, and that Henry warned there shouldn’t be any large Halloween parties anywhere.

He noted he talked with Dr. Victoria Lee, the CEO of Fraser Health, last week about enforcement issues.

“We talked about the bylaws and I said our bylaw officers will

be there to supplement our police officers, but the only thing I asked is that the enforceable order must be very clear in order that our officers can take action,” he said.

Harvie at a council meeting last month expressed outrage after getting an update from Delta police about a big house party in North Delta where COVID-19 safety measures were clearly ignored.

He noted that the Sept. 11 gathering involved three side-byside homes with more than 150 people in attendance in that back yard, where fences were removed, prompting calls to police and the city’s bylaws department.

Harvie said he talked with other mayors who have had similar problems in their cities, partly due to the closures of banquet halls.

He said the government allowing gatherings of up to 50 people did not allow for the prevention of community transmission of the disease, suggesting the limit should be lowered to 10 people.

“Fining the amount of $2,000 isn’t a deterrent to people, unfortunately, in many cases. We need to have

more enforcement. We need to have better tools. We need to ensure we can prohibit gatherings of 150 people joining three houses together. It cannot occur,” added Harvie at the time.

He also said that Delta council directed staff to review the noise bylaw in order to increase fines, especially when it comes to gatherings held over multiple days as well as the use of tents in residential back yards.

Hinting more measures could be on their way last week, Henry had warned the surge in daily cases was linked to social events that had gotten out of control.

Lee last week also said multi-day events including weddings and funerals have caused a surge in COVID-19 cases.

Henry said there is an expectation masks should be worn in public places but, as of now, there’s no public health order.

The City of Delta last month enacted a new rule requiring masks be worn at all its civic facilities.

Henry on Monday also encouraged businesses to review their safety plans.

Pandemic increases the need for food security CAMERON THOMSON

C o n t r i b u t i n g Wr i t e r

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, food distribution organizations across Delta have come together to help those struggling with food security.

Earlier this month, United Way of the Lower Mainland announced an extension of a funding appeal for their Local Love Food Hubs. The hubs served one million meals to people in the Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley since their creation in April.

According to a news release, the hubs were developed as an emergency response to the pandemic with the goal of curtailing the sudden increased food insecurity experienced by 15 per cent of people across the province.

Out of United Way’s 136 Local Love Food Hubs, two are located in Delta. The first was with the Delta School District, which started

when schools shut down due to COVID-19 and continued operating through the summer months. Since the school year has resumed, the food hub with the district concluded.

The second food hub operates through Delta’s Earthwise Farm and Garden, the leading agency in the Delta Food Coalition.

Since July, Earthwise has created and delivered 705 food hampers to residents across Delta. The produce that goes into the food hampers is sourced through various organizations affiliated with Earthwise.

The shared harvest program for example, coordinates between people with an excess of fruit produced by their backyard farms. The shared harvest program alone has accounted for almost 907 kg (2,000 pounds) of produce.

“The majority of it recently has come from farms just because of the

volume they have but this summer I would say the majority came from people in the community,” said Aubrey Bird, program coordinator for Earthwise.

Seeing as one of Earthwise’s main initiatives is education, simple recipes are included in the hampers so people aren’t left wondering what to do with vegetables they may not have come across before.

“There’s a joy in being able to provide people with actually nice meals that otherwise, during a vulnerable time, especially during this pandemic, they would have access to,” added Emma Frostad the food security coordinator for Earthwise.

Additionally, Earthwise, the Delta Food Coalition and United Way have come together to support a food rescuing initiative organized by FoodMesh, a network which helps grocery stores reduce their food waste.

ContaCt us at:

www.bettermeals.com 604.299.1877

In a three-month pilot program which started in September, rescued food is picked up at Save-On-Foods locations in Tsawwassen and Ladner and is delivered to various organizations in Delta like the Boys and Girls club and the KinVillage Association.

In the first month of the program more than $13,000 worth of food was rescued and donated.

Bird says the increased demand is inexorably tied to the COVID-19 pandemic.

“I think a lot of people were pushed over the edge into being food insecure when COVID19 happened because a lot of people who might not have had to access food banks before lost their jobs,” Bird said.

Together, the United Way Local Love Food Hubs at Earthwise and the Delta School District have provided more than 13,000 meals and/ or food hampers to Delta residents.

In a brilliant sermon titled “Man’s Sin and God’s Grace,” Martin Luther King, Jr., the pastor, humanitarian, and civil-rights activist, began with the words, “There is something fundamentally wrong with human nature, something basically and fundamentally wrong.”

That something is our sinful nature, and the more we contemplate it, the nearer we get to the disquieting, inescapable, conclusion that it is not something that we can fix — not through political ideology; not through technology; not through the brilliant conclusions arrived at by the human intellect.

God’s will that all would be free. The good news is that through the cross of Cavalry and the empty tomb, your sin has been forgiven. Because Jesus Christ, the Son of God, has set you free, you have been made truly and ultimately free! But free to be what? Free to be an imperfect, perfectly loved, child of God. Free to love your neighbor as yourself. Free to follow Jesus and do your best to help make the world a better place for all people and creation. Free to look death in the face, as St. Paul did, and ask mockingly, “where is thy victory, where is thy sting?”

How could you be any freer than that?

Shoppers enjoying work of Ladner artist MARK BOOTH

m b o o t h @ d e l t a - o p t i m i s t .c o m

Natalie Way has never spent more time at shopping centres where there is no bargain hunting involved.

The mural artist from Ladner recently wrapped up two projects at the Tsawwassen Shopping Centre and then moved onto another at Ocean Park Shopping Centre in South Surrey. That comes after teaming up with fellow South Delta artists Jan Rankin for a Centennial Beach mural at Tsawwassen Mills back in August.

The demand for the mural projects not only reflects her exquisite work, but the pandemic we are all living through.

“I do some of those social painting events at Petra’s sometimes and private events as well.

With COVID-19 (cancelling everything) I was worried about how I was going to fill those,” said Way. “Exterior murals, especially, seemed to be a lot more desired right now. The main reason I think is people need a bit of a lift and actually, as I am painting these, I can’t

believe at how much it gets out of people. They will walk up and their eyes will be wide open with big smiles. They will say thank you for creating something so beautiful for us to see.

It’s been very, very nice.”

The Tsawwassen Shopping Centre and Tsawwassen Business Improvement Association were familiar with Way’s work and hand in mind what they wanted created in different areas of the complex.

The organic blueberry theme is on the exterior wall of the L’Aroma’s Bakehouse.

Way had to overcome working in forest fire smoke and a couple of days of torrential rain last month before getting that project completed. She then moved onto “Follow Your Heart which was done in about three days.

“I saw a picture I had taken on a trip. The trees just formed an actual heart. It was so beautiful,” she said. “In this part of the mall they wanted it to be very calming and loving with a real nice feeling in that respect.

“The (other part) of the mall is food and natural stuff. We wanted the brightness of the

blueberries and it to be nature inspired. It was really fun to do it here. I can’t believe how many people came by. I was able to catch up with a lot of people I haven’t seen in a while and even people I didn’t know just came up to me and

chatted.”

You can follow her progress on her Natalie Way Murals and Arts Facebook page or see all her work on her website at: www.natalieway.ca.

“I love the fact the Vancouver Mural festival

seems to have inspired businesses to do more public art,” Way added. “People don’t realize what it brings to a community. It really does give a sense of character and wellbeing. It does translate. I see it on people’s faces.”

Boundary Bay metal artist creates Southlands Cow MARK BOOTH

m b o o t h @ d e l t a - o p t i m i s t .c o m

Yorke Graham doesn’t have to venture far to see one of his latest works.

It was about a year ago when the Boundary Bay-based metal artist, who works mainly with discarded metal and vintage objects, was approached about creating a feature for the Market Square in the new Southlands Community.

Paying homage to the area’s dairy history, Yorke and his wife Karen pitched the idea of a metal cow. While much of the province was in COVID-19 lockdown last spring, the couple was enthusiastically working together on the oversize “Southlands Cow.” Yorke put his mischievous spin on the idea by adding a motor, seat and steering wheel to create a mechanical cow.

He reached out to farming families in the Delta community and the B.C. Interior to gather old equipment and tools. Some of the pieces were even old implements that had been left on the Southlands property.

Once a good supply of metal was

gathered, Yorke’s focus was to get the dimensions correct and they mapped out the basic frame of an oversized cow, approximately 1.25 times at 10 feet long.

Once the framework was established it became more about the artistic placement of each piece. Along the way Karen would provide feedback and ideas. She eventually became an integral part of the process - especially with the head.

The couple worked together, referencing photos and searching for particular pieces that would help mimic the shapes they were looking for. Yorke loves working with objects that have a history, and giving them a second life.

The Southlands Cow was moved to its home just outside the historic Red Barn in June. The Yorkes are thankful for the opportunity and express how wonderful it is that Southlands is supporting local art.

Last year the Optimist also featured the couple after they created an art installation that sits out front of the Andreas Homes’ development on 51st St. in Ladner.

Delta seeks fed funds for lawn bowling project SANDOR GYARMATI

s g y a r m a t i @ d e l t a - o p t i m i s t .c o m

The City of Delta is hoping to get senior government funding to help pay for a multi-million dollar project that would see the construction of a new Tsawwassen Lawn Bowling Green and Clubhouse.

The city is making a grant application of $3.75 million to the Canada Infrastructure Program Community, Culture and Recreation.

The city has already committed $1 million towards the project.

Earlier this year, the federal and provincial governments committed up to $100.6 million for

The intake is designed to target projects starting in 2021 or 2022.

The grant program provides up to 73.3 percent of total project costs from senior levels of gov-

ernment.

The Tsawwassen Lawn Bowling Club currently has a clubhouse at KinVillage in an area called North Court, but it will be eventually redeveloped.

Council this year received a report on an alternate location for the lawn bowling green and clubhouse and approved

in principle relocating the facility to the northeast corner of Winskill Park, also adding a parking lot and providing a replacement soccer field.

In March, staff met with representatives of the various sports organizations and, according to a report to council, all organizations and stakeholders are supportive of the proposed plan.

The new location provides better access, increases parking and provides for a replacement soccer field where the bowling green currently exists, the report notes, adding the project will maximize the use of the entire northwest corner of the park.

LIVING THE GOOD LIFE

Augustine House rolls with COVID-19 punches CAMERON THOMSON

C o n t r i b u t i n g Wr i t e r

Augustine House on Ladner’s Arthur Drive is working to make life easier for its residents and their visitors all while safeguarding against COVID-19.

Some things Augustine House has done to continue social visiting for residents is the creation of an indoor visiting area inside the building’s east entrance, complete with barriers and comfortable chairs.

Additionally, outdoor heaters have been ordered to allow outdoor visits to continue through the winter months as outdoor visits continue to

be the safest way to interact with others.

The retirement home asks that visitors remember when they come onsite to be screened for signs and symptoms of COVID-19 to wear a mask and maintain physical distance.

Jackie Reiners, executive director of Augustine House says a greater number of residents are being served in the dining room for lunch and for dinner.

“This has been received very positively by residents and staff alike,” Reiners said. “It is lovely seeing friends visiting over their meals, appropriately distanced of course. We encourage residents to come to

meals as invited, but this remains their choice.”

Other activities such as exercises, word games, social hours and trivia continue to be popular among the residents.

Exercise programming has been increased to ensure everyone who wishes to attend are able to.

“We are also hoping to reintroduce yoga in the near future,” Reiners said.

“It is important to ensure we keep moving as we move into the cooler weather.”

Reiners stressed to potential visitors that if they are feeling unwell in any way, to postpone their visit until they are well.

Lifeline is a unit of the Delta Hospital Auxiliary. In Delta, we enable approximately 500 residents of Delta to live independently and secure within their own homes.

Volunteers install the equipment and ensure the clients know how to use their Personal Help Buttons. Many calls to Lifeline are solved by responders, therefore preventing unnecessary ambulance calls or visits to the Hospital Emergency Department.

Seniors and their families have peace of mind knowing that help is just a click away.

Having Lifeline was a great comfort for both myself and my mom.

She had cause to use it a couple of times after falling in her home.

With Lifeline she was able to alert me and I was there within minutes.

LIVING THE GOOD LIFE Hobbies promote personal growth Hobbies can help people escape the daily grind. Though it’s easy to view hobbies as enjoyable ways to pass the time, they also can be vehicles that enrich your life.

Hobbies are especially good at helping people learn new skills. They also may help boost professional and personal development.

Hobbies play a vital role for a variety of reasons, and some hobbyists may be surprised to learn just how much their favorite form of escapism is benefitting their lives.

Hobbies may help to relieve stress by keeping you engaged with something you enjoy.

Reducing stress may help you remain calm and be more productive at home, at work and in school. Reduced stress also translates into

improved mental and physical health.

People who engage in hobbies experience new things and may interact with different people through their interests.

This can give you various topics to discuss in conversation and make you more interesting to others.

Learning skills through hobbies also means you will obtain specialized knowledge that you can impart on people with similar interests.

Hobbies can be creative outlets that take your mind off of other things. For people who have trouble with meditation and other mindful ways to shut off their brains, hobbies can be a form of escapism that leaves you alone with your thoughts.

According to the selfimprovement resource

Personal Growth, most hobbies actually have a meditative effect on your thoughts because, no matter what you are doing, your awareness becomes completely focused on the hobby Hobbies can improve your social life and foster creative bonds with others, providing great ways to meet and get closer to people who share your interests.

Hobbies can help stave off boredom, providing productive outlets when there is nothing else available to fill the time.

Hobbies can be more beneficial ways to spend your time than playing games on a phone or watching television.

Hobbies also may be educational and enrich knowledge through skill building.

Tsawwassen goalkeeper named to Whitecaps Academy team MARK BOOTH

m b o o t h @ d e l t a - o p t i m i s t .c o m

South Delta has become a hotbed for up-and-coming goalkeepers.

For the second time in three years a South Delta United Soccer Club alumni has secured a spot in the Vancouver Whitecaps all-expenses-paid youth development system.

It was back in the spring of 2017 when Harrison Gough earned his way into the Whitecaps Residency Program where the now 15-year-old is stopping shots for the U17 side. Trystan Read is following in his footsteps.

The 13-year-old from Tsawwassen was one of two goalkeepers named to the club’s Pre-MLS Academy Program that is based at SFU. This is the new U14 entry level of the team’s re-vamped youth system and provides a path to join the Residency teams that train at the Whitecaps main facility at UBC. Both Gough and Read travelled a similar road that is the envy of young players across Western Canada.

They spent much of their grassroots years as out players and later developed their passion for the goalie position, crediting their time with SDU goalkeeper coach Helmut Wiebe.

“When I was little I was mostly an out player. I was doing a ‘keeper camp about one day a week on academy nights but it

MARK BOOTH PHOTO

Trystan Read is spending plenty of time training at Simon Fraser University after the Tsawwassen goalkeeper was named to the Whitecaps FC Pre-MLS Academy Team. wasn’t really sticking,” recalled Read.

He upped his commitment to the position after the Tsawwassen and Ladner clubs merged to form SDU and he made the Division One team by splitting his time in and out of the net.

The transition to a full-time goalkeeper didn’t happen until he attended

tryouts for Coastal FC of the BC Premier Soccer League in South Surrey.

“Going to BCPSL, I tried out as a player and then for the very last tryout I went as a ‘keeper. Everyone kept saying I had potential as a goalkeeper. So I decided to do it for fun and I made it,” continued Read.

“It was around that time I had start-

ed working with Helmut as well. He really is a great coach. I enjoyed training with him and was excited whenever I had that opportunity. He always pushed me to the next level.”

Read’s first season in the BCPSL went well enough for the Coastal technical staff to nominate him to attend Whitecaps Pre-Academy tryouts back in February with about 100 hopefuls.

He initially thought he couldn’t attend all three sessions as his Coastal team was headed to Arizona for a tournament. However, snow postponed the determining tryout and paved the way for Read to make a lasting impression.

He advanced to the next stage of 30 players before the roster was finalized.

The commitment is intense with evening training sessions Tuesdayto-Friday and at least one game on weekends. He spends much of his time working with goalkeeper coach Erin McNulty before joining the rest of the squad for scrimmages.

At 6-feet, Read has size going for him.

He also credits his ability to come off his line in breakaway situations and make himself “big.” That’s where a couple of years of playing roller hockey and blocking shots helped his technique.

His time with South Delta United isn’t forgotten.

“A lot of credit goes to the club and coaches he has had over the years,” said his proud father Bryan.

Delta Deas masters rowers clean up at the Head of the Charles

The Delta Deas Rowing Club had an amazing showing at the Head of the Charles.

The Head of the Charles is one of the most prestigious races in the rowing calendar and is generally the largest regatta in the world, attracting more than 11,000 competitors. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, things were different this year, however.

The regatta was held virtually, which meant that clubs rowed the race on home waters and posted their results. For DDRC this meant rowing more than 4.7 km from the top of the reach, down through Ladner Village and all the way to the Wellington pier.

The club posted some amazing results.

Charmaine Hermann and Stephanie Payne came in first in the women’s 40-plus doubles with a blistering time. Jeremy Hankin, who is a relatively new rower, came in seventh in the men’s 30-plus. Richard Stout and Gayle Hubbard came in first in mixed doubles with Stuart and Jane McCall right behind in second.

A number of other crews also posted top 10 finishes.

“After seven months of no racing it was good to get back on the course and show what we can do,” remarked McCall.

ARCHER, M. Rae. (Millard) March 10, 1933 − October 15, 2020

DANDRIDGE, Lorne Alfred September 24, 1932 - October 23, 2020 It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Lorne Dandridge.

He will be remembered by his beloved wife Gloria, daughter Lisa (John), son Steve (Candace) and daughter Karen (Brad). He was a loving grandfather to Jordyn, Tanner, Coby and Erin. Lorne will also be remembered by his nieces Susan, Linda, Heather and their families.

Lorne was born in Shoal Lake, Manitoba and moved to Vancouver, BC at the age of 14. In 1951 he started working for BC Tel, a company he retired from after 40 years. Lorne and Gloria married in 1962 and settled into their house in Tsawwassen in 1964. He had an open door, where neighbours and friends could be found having a morning coffee in the kitchen or celebrating happy hour in the afternoon at the bar he built downstairs.

Always one for a great story, our house was filled with laughter. He was a member of the Ladner/ Tsawwassen Kiwanis Club and enjoyed contributing to the community for 37 years.

Lorne will always remain in our hearts and our memories, especially those wonderful years at Lake Whatcom and trips to Disneyland with the grandchildren. His passion was gardening and the lawn always looked like a golf green. He enjoyed his many trips to Sunnyside Nursery to make his beautiful flower pots and hanging baskets or to Home Hardware to chat about projects. We would like to think that he has returned to gardening once again.

He loved spending time outdoors, listening to games on his yellow AM Walkman, and watching his grandchildren play their sports. We already miss hearing your voice, your wit and seeing your smile and phrases or whistles you made up when you couldn’t think of a word.

Hoop-de-hydi-ho Dad, we love you.

A celebration of life will be held at a later date.

Online condolences can be made at www.deltafuneral.ca whom have been entrusted with the arrangements.

Delta Funeral Home 604-946-6040

LOCKWOOD, Marion Sadly on October 14th, a week after her 73rd birthday, Marion lost her battle with cancer. She will be lovingly remembered by husband Brian, daughter Hilary, son Colin, 5 grandchildren and many friends.

She ran Lockwood Family Daycare for many years, and was a member of Beta Sigma Phi before moving to Nanaimo and most recently Kelowna.

Please consider a donation to any children’s charity, and name the daycare.

PICKFORD, Rodney Edward.

March 22, 1950 − October 14, 2020 The family of Rodney Pickford and Oasis Woodcrafts sadly announces the passing of beloved husband, brother, uncle, and master craftsman.

Rod was born in Southe Devon, England, the third of four boys. He spent much of his youth walking the "Tors" of Dartmoor and playing rugby for Ashburton and Buckfastleigh County Secondary School.

He trained as a cadet, and in 1969 graduated from the No.7 District Police Training Center in Dorset.

He spent the 1970s and early 80s as a PC (police constable) with the Yorkshire Division in Swindon.

He was a founding member of the local police rugby squad. He had very fond memories of teammates and after−game celebrations.

In 1987, while on safari in East Africa, he met Helen from Vancouver. They were married in 1988.

In 1990, he joined Adera Development as a site foreman and during his time with them, he rose to site superintendent but is most fondly remembered for his auctioneering skills in fundraising at the annual Adera charity golf tournament. The funds raised supported BC Guide Dogs and various overseas children’s charities.

Upon retirement, he channelled his love of building into Oasis Woodcrafts in west Ladner. He became known for his cedar deck furniture, birdhouses, and craftsmanship.

He enjoyed chatting with anyone who stopped by his shop or the end of our driveway.

Despite being diagnosed terminal in May, he and Helen were determined to have as normal a summer as possible − which we did. He was creating to the end.

He is survived by his wife, Helen; brothers, Bob (Linda), Raymond (Elaine), and Gordon of South Devon; nieces, Laura, Sally, Helen, and Katie; nephew, Mark; and many retired police officers who remember their days of service together.

No service per his request, but a donation to BC Guide Dogs would please him.

SMAIL (nee Bullions), Mary (May) Sloan March 29, 1930 − October 06, 2020 It’s with great sadness that we announce the passing of May Smail born in Glasgow, Scotland.

She was predeceased by parents, William and Elizabeth; son, Kenneth; and siblings, Davie, John, and Grace. She is survived by husband, George; sons, Ron (Marla) and Bob (Wendy); grandsons, Robbie (Kristin), Jamie (Stephanie), and Aaron; great−granddaughter, Emma May; brother, Bill; and sister Marion.

On the wings of prayer, Rae went home to be with Jesus, welcomed there with open arms by her husband, Geoff and grandson, Andrew.

Rae will be greatly missed by her family; her children, Doug (Rona), Carolyn (John), and Brenda (Dave); grandchildren, Lydia (Curtis), Hannah (David), Ruth, Julia, Luke, and Abby; nieces and nephews; and a large circle of friends.

Mom was a gracious lady who lived a life filled with love, generosity, compassion, laughter, strength, and wisdom. She served others through her long nursing career, church families, local communities, and day−to−day life. She never retired from life!

In lieu of flowers, please send donations in her memory to: Ratanak, www.ratanak.org OR VGH School of Nursing Alumnae Education Fund, 855 West 12th Avenue, Vancouver, BC, V5Z 1M9.

Sim, Hazel Dorothy (Trail) April 7, 1950 − October 21, 2020 It is with great sadness we announce the sudden passing of Hazel Sim. We are grateful her fight with liver cancer was short and without too much suffering. Hazel is survived by her loving husband, Lloyd; and three daughters, Jennifer (Darren), Joanna (Jeff), and Katharine (James); as well as her grandchildren, Cameron, Connor, Nolan, and Sydney.

Hazel immigrated to Canada in 1957 at the age of seven with her parents, Joseph and Dorothy Trail.

She grew up in Port Alberni, BC and married M. Lloyd Sim on July 30, 1971. They then moved to Nanaimo, BC where they raised their three daughters before moving to Ladner, BC in the summer of 1986. Hazel was a loving mother who dedicated her life to her daughters and then to the children of Hawthorne School, where she worked as an Educational Assistant for 25 years, impacting the lives of many children.

Hazel was an avid gardener, reader and cook, as well as loved the adventure of travel. She valued her lunch dates with "the retirees" and spending lots of time with her grandchildren.

Hazel’s final resting place will be in Aberdeen, Scotland, with her parents and other loved ones.

There will be no formal service during these difficult Covid−19 times. There will be an online photo memorial at the following link: https://vimeo.com/user125805053/review/471992 145/6ad44f6368 If a donation is being considered, the Delta Hospital Foundation: https://dhchfoundation.ca was a charity close to her heart.

October 29, 2020 The Delta Optimist A43 REMEMBRANCES OBITUARIES PHILPS, Frank Eion 1942 − 2020 Frank died at home on October 20, 2020, with his wife, Lorraine by his side. Frank is survived by wife, Lorraine; his children, Rebecca and Mark; their partners, Brennan and Nicki; his grandchildren, Gus and Albie; his sister, Cynthia; his nieces and nephews; and family in both Australia and England.

Born in Southall, England, Frank was educated at the City of London School before receiving his degree in chemical engineering from the University of Manchester. He first came to Canada in 1966.

After returning to England and meeting Lorraine, he settled permanently in Canada with her in 1975.

Frank worked at the Port Alice pulp mill for 12 years, before transferring to the Vancouver office in 1987 to handle sales and technical services. While Frank much preferred an afternoon in a quiet pub to jet− setting, through his work he travelled extensively in Europe, Asia, and South America, visiting many countries and making many friends along the way.

At home, Frank was an avid reader and a talented gardener whose experimental approach yielded beauty and colour. Happiness for Frank was watching the hummingbirds in the garden with a good beer.

He was a kind, gentle, and quietly intelligent man with a sharp, and at−times silly, sense of humour.

He loved his family deeply and will be sorely missed by them. In lieu of flowers, the family requests a donation to the BC Cancer Foundation.

LEGAL LEGAL/PUBLIC NOTICES DEVELOPMENT OF A PEST MANAGEMENT PLAN NUISANCE MOSQUITO CONTROL The purpose of this Pest Management Plan (PMP) No. 700-0005-2021/2026 is to reduce overall mosquito annoyance within the City of Delta by controlling larval development using an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) approach to control. The PMP focuses on larval mosquito control initiatives and uses public education, physical site modification and biological controls to reduce larval mosquito populations and conserve, or enhance, natural mosquito predators wherever possible and includes the use of non-persistent, bacterial larvicides. This Pest Management Plan is a renewal of the expiring (March 2020) 5 year PMP for this program. The proposed duration of this PMP is from 01 April, 2021 to 31 March, 2026.

Larvicide products proposed for use include Vectobac 200G, which contains the natural-occurring soil bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis var. israelensis, (PCP #18158) and VectoLex CG (PCP # 28008) and VectoLex WSP (PCP # 28009) made with the related bacterium Bacillus sphaericus. Both of these products are classified as bio-rational products, they do not accumulate in the environment and provide speciesspecific control of mosquito larvae. These products are non-toxic to other organisms including insects, fish, birds, wildlife, man and domestic animals.

Mosquito larvae require stagnant or non-flowing waters, temporary or permanent, to develop.

Development habitats include salt marshes and freshwater marshes, ponds, ditches and catch basins and other open water habitats which may produce larval mosquitos. Total area for larvicide treatment is not to exceed 125 hectares of public lands in each year of the PMP. Applications of Vectobac and VectoLex will be made using ground-based, handbroadcast or motorized backpack spreader methods.

All applications will be conducted within the municipal boundaries of the City of Delta.

This Pest Management Plan is being prepared for the City of Delta by Duka Environmental Services Ltd., an environmental services firm with extensive experience in pest management plan development and local mosquito control operations. Information on proposed treatment areas, annual mosquito control program operations and this PMP are available to the public by request through Duka Environmental Services Ltd., 19732 – 68 Avenue, Langley, BC V2Y 1H6 (604) 8814565, Facsimile (866) 759-5902, or email; duka@telus.net. For VectoBac or Vectolex product information please see the manufacturer’s website www.valentbiosciences.com A person wishing to contribute information regarding a proposed treatment site, relevant to the development of this Pest Management Plan, may send copies of the information to Duka Environmental Services Ltd. (agents for the City of Delta) at the contact addresses above within 30 days of the publication of this notice.

The identity of any respondents and the contents of anything submitted in response to this notice and application will become part of the public record.
