Claudia Jesson Director, City Clerk’s OfficeAmazing Race pair bows out on show’s 7th episode
ALAN CAMPBELL acampbell@richmond-newscom
“It was the dancing that doomed us” Derek Gerard was in no doubt what cost him and best friend Jaspal Sidhu their coveted spot in CTV’s Amazing Race Canada, a journey which saw them traverse the country, including stops in Whistler and Tofino
In the popular show’s seventh episode of the series on Tuesday night, the Richmond pair sadly finished last of the six remaining teams and were, of course, eliminated from the race to win $250,000
Talking to the Richmond News from their homes – 28-yearold Gerard lives near the Oval, while Sidhu, 27, lives in Steveston – Gerard pointed to one of the last challenges in the leg, swing dancing in Ontario, for the pair’s exit.
The Steveston-London secondary alumni just couldn’t get some of the intricate moves down, in order to move onto the next challenge, costing them valuable time in the race
“Yep, we got eliminated, so it sucks. We got really unlucky with the detour to the dancing challenge,” lamented Gerard, a professional YouTuber by day
“The dance challenge cost us about 30 minutes.”
Asked if helping their nearest challengers, Jermaine and Justin, during the waterpark challenge cost them their place in the contest, Sidhu admitted it “wasn’t the smartest move, looking back at it now.
“If we had to redo it, we might not have done that Because we did, and it was part of the reason we got knocked out, it was kind of poetic and hilarious, as we joked that it could be the reason we get knocked out.”
Gerard, however, said it was more to do with all the other teams helping each other during the leg of the race – and throughout the series filmed across Canada in May – that signaled the Richmond friends’ demise
“When we helped Jermaine and Justin at the waterpark, it
may be saved them five minutes (it) was insignificant in the long run,” he added, noting that, in the dancing routine, there was “no opportunity to help each other memorize a routine” Much to the pair’s chagrin, the challenge some of the other pairs took on, as opposed to the dancing, was solving giant puzzle, where they all helped each other, knowing that Team Gerard/Sidhu and Jermaine/Justin were struggling behind
“We never had a chance to collaborate with anyone during the show I think because we were so loud and obnoxious,” said Gerard, paying homage to the pair’s trademark neon clothing.
“I think the fact that we went out on an episode where everyone was working together made it feel (OK)
“They weren’t ganging up deliberately, but they all helped another team at some point, except us.”
Asked if it was their loud and brash nature that contributed to their undoing, Gerard said simply that it’s just what they do
“If you see us playing one on one basketball, we’re chirping each other the whole time I think that’s just how we have fun, riling up teammates and getting into ‘the zone,’” he explained
“I do really well when someone is being loud and obnoxious and maybe it did bite us in the ass a little, but that’s just who we are”
Incredibly, the best buds never fell out with each other once, despite the stress of the show – apart from just one time.
“The closest we got was when I was eating too many Oreos,” laughed Sidhu
Jaspal’s diet was the “only thing we argued about,” added Gerard
“He said he was stressed about the show so he ate a whole pack of Oreos”
The pair said they are looking forward to life getting back to normal and not having to answer questions from people asking if they won the Amazing Race
“Knowing that you didn’t win but asking people to root for you was very strange,” said Gerard.
And will the guys be strutting their stuff down No 3 Road in their hi-vis outfits?
“We were playing basketball near the Oval yesterday and Jaspal was literally wearing the outfit from the race I think he just wants to get recognized,” signed off Gerard
Clean bike lanes after garbage day
Dear Editor,
I would like to ask Richmond residents to be aware when garbage collection is done
Perhaps be careful not to leave broken glass on the side of the road that has fallen from their recycling bins and maybe sweep up the mess that falls into the bike lanes.
This will be my third flat tire this summer due to this material This is costly
I direct this to the City of Richmond as well
The maintenance of cycle lanes is important, as they can also be covered in pinecones, nails and other debris I appreciate any support in this matter
Anne Macdonald RICHMONDTipping after tax leaves bad taste in mouth
Dear Editor, I remember years ago wondering if my family’s favourite restaurant would ever go over the $20 price point for a burger.
It’s now $21 for every burger there except for the simplest offering
Still, I will treat my family and friends sometimes and we’ll enjoy the food, the service and be given the bill. Then comes the tipping. I do not mind tipping, not at all. I don’t mind tipping for the service, especially good, attentive service
What I do not like is being asked to tip on the tax that is added by the government
For those who are not aware, many restaurants are now using
Get to know Richmond by studying yesterday
Dear Editor,
Deep and abiding respect for a community can only be fully achieved when citizens are educated about its history and what has gone into making it the place it is today
point of sale systems that include sales tax in the total cost and then offers tip amounts (15%, 18% etc) that are calculated using the inflated cost.
Sure, it might be a small amount extra in the tip, but it’s disingenuous and a way to strip you of a few more dollars from your bank account
Next time you get your bill, look at the amount that is being calculated for the tip.
If you feel like tipping extra for the tax the government is charging you then more power to you, but a dollar saved is a dollar earned in this case
Geordie McGillivray RICHMONDWith the exception of Steveston and a few other smaller examples, most of the evidence of Richmond’s long history has been obliterated and forgotten, and of course few people are interested enough to spend time visiting the city archives to learn more
My family moved to Richmond in the mid-1950s when the tram was still running from Steveston to Marpole and then to downtown Vancouver It was 80% farmland with only two small subdivisions yet built, the canneries in Steveston were still in full production and the wharfs were packed with fishing boats, the Massey Tunnel was not built and we had to take a ferry across the river to Ladner, and bridges linked Lulu Island, Sea Island, and Marpole
Thank goodness the Maritime and Salmon festivals and the restored tram in Steveston provide opportunities for citizens and visitors to learn about Richmond’s rich history
What a community is today is influenced and informed by what it was and did in the past, and we will not be able to fully grasp and respect the rich history of Richmond unless we show interest. As novelist Pearl S Buck once said: “If you want to understand today you have to search yesterday”

“Time is of the essence in my mom’s case,” said Kristin Clark, whose mother Roberta Mercer received the diagnosis after feeling pain in her upper abdomen.
The cancer has now spread to her liver and lymph nodes
“We’ve been told that chemotherapy is not anoptionandthattherearesomeothertreatments that have shown potential in extending the life of others with similar diagnosis,” Clark told the Richmond News

Richmond’s rainbow crosswalks on Minoru Boulevard and at Palmer secondary were hit by homophobic vandals again on Monday night
The Richmond News has hidden the more offensive language
Pride crosswalks hit again
ALAN CAMPBELL
Acampbell@Richmond-News com
City of Richmond crews were busy Tuesday morning cleaning up yet another homophobic attack on rainbow crosswalks.
Both the Pride crosswalks at Minoru Boulevard near Richmond Public Library and the one near Palmer secondary were defaced overnight Monday into Tuesday Hateful graffiti was sprayed onto both crossings, much to the disgust of several Richmond News readers who reached out to the newsroom about the attacks
The crosswalk at Palmer, however,
did have words of comfort and support chalked on the sidewalk, perhaps in a bid to counteract the vandalism
City spokesperson Clay Adams said city crews were out Tuesday morning cleaning up the vandalism, adding that the work is expected to be completed late morning
The rainbow crosswalk at Palmer was hit four times in a week earlier this month, after it was installed at the beginning of August
The News has reached out to Richmond RCMP for more details on any investigation into the vandalism
Condo owners on hook for $120,000
ALAN CAMPBELL acampbell@richmond-news.comThe owners of a Richmond city centre condo have been ordered to pay their former strata more than $120,000 in legal and sale enforcement costs – after a battle over a $7,500 lien
Jasar Ajvazi and Helen Marie Price owned the apartment in the three-storey strata complex at 6560 Buswell Street, close to No. 3 and Cook roads
For reasons unclear in B C Supreme Court documents, the strata filed a lien for around $7,500 against the unit in September 2019 and, in November 2021, after a catalogue of litigation – amid claims by Ajvazi of racism, perjury and harassment the strata enforced the lien through a court-ordered sale of the unit
The condo was eventually sold via the court for around $350,000, but not before a bailiff had to be called in to take possessionoftheunit,afterAjvazi–theonlyknownoccupantofthe condo – refused to vacate it
The strata, represented by Century 21 Prudential Estates, had wanted costs totalling $133,826 76, of which $110,782 84 were actual legal fees run up during a disturbing two-year debacle, where Ajvazi made all kinds of unfounded accusations against the strata management company and its lawyers
At one point, according to court documents, a lawyer from the strata’s legal firm, Wilson McCormack Law Group, had to file a complaint to the police, alleging, among other things, threats of sexual harassment and violence
Ajvazi even faked notification of a special meeting of strata owners and walked out of a B.C. Supreme Court hearing in May of this year, accusing the court registrar of racism and bias
Ultimately, the supreme court registrar ruled that the strata
was entitled to $95,000 in legal costs and $25,000 special costs
In the court documents, the strata acknowledged that the costs it sought “are high (they exceed the amount found to be reasonable in other cases).”
But, because of the protracted enforcement proceedings and the continued actions of Ajvazi and his unwillingness to accept the court’s decisions, it felt the costs were not excessive.
Indeed, the court’s registrar noted that Ajvazi’s conduct in court “illustrates the challenges the Strata Corporation faced in enforcing the Lien
“While in attendance, Mr. Ajvazi was disruptive and disrespectful to the Court and to the Strata Corporation’s counsel, frequently interrupting to object to the submissions and evidence, as well as to the Court’s directions.
“When I advised Mr Ajvazi that his conduct was disrespectful of the Court, he accused me of being racist, disrespectful and bullying
“He alleged that I had threatened him and scared him, and that his human rights were being violated”
Throughout the lien enforcement proceedings, Ajvazi repeatedly levelled similar allegations against the strata corporation’s counsel, strata council members and management staff, as well as filing complaints with the Law Society of BC and the BC Human Rights Tribunal
In the middle of the two-year battle, Ajvazi even briefly employed Hong Guo, of the Richmond-based Hong Guo Corporation, to negotiate with the strata and its lawyers
However, Guo, who is currently suspended by the Law Society of BC for a catalogue of professional misconducts, dropped Ajvazi as a client after a few months
Maritime Fest wraps up
Thousands of people filled up Britannia Shipyards National Historic Site’s boardwalk and docks for the final day of the Richmond Maritime Festival on Sunday
The festival celebrated its 20th year of showcasing the city’s fishing history and related industries
The main attraction was people stepping aboard restored wooden vessels like the Royal Canadian Marine Search and Rescue, The Viking Mariner, and the Delta Canadian boats, experiencing life as mariners
Live music, food trucks, historic exhibits and performances were also on show throughout the two days. See more of Valerie Leung’s photos at RichmondNews com by searching “Maritime”

Man, 20, praised for helping save customer’s life
MARIA RANTANEN Mrantanen@Richmond-News comIt is a birthday Madhav Chhibbar will probably never forget
It won’t be the birthday cake or presents that made an impression on the 20-year-old, rather remembering how he possibly saved a man’s life
Chhibbar was working his regular shift at the front desk of South Arm Community Centre on July 30 when two patrons came running from the fitness centre saying someone had collapsed
Chhibbar grabbed the centre’s AED and headed for the fitness centre.
On the way, he saw a friend, Lyndon, from McRoberts secondary who’d been on the school’s first responder team with him and the two of them went to assess the situation. They were joined by another staff person
At first, the man seemed to be shaking and they thought he was having a seizure
But when they noticed him going pale and his pulse getting weaker, they started CPR
All the while, someone was on the phone with 911
Both Chhibbar and his friend Lyndon had taken first aid and first responder training while in high school, and “muscle memory” kicked in as they remembered scenarios they had practiced
The thought going through Chhibbar’s head was “what can we do best to save this person?”
Teamworkandatight-knitstaffculturehelpedthethreework together on the collapsed man, he explained
It was 16 minutes later when paramedics showed up and took over the scene
The man who collapsed was in an induced coma for a few days, but when he woke up, he was fully alert without any damage from oxygen loss
The family, who wanted to remain anonymous, expressed their gratitude to the South Arm staff and patron who helped save the father’s life.
Doctors laud CPR response
Furthermore, the neurosurgeons at the hospital told the family,ifit hadn’t beenfor theway CPR wasperformedsowell,the outcome might not have been as good.
For Chhibbar, it was a stressful few days until he heard the man had come out of the coma and was doing well “That put my mind at ease,” he said.
In talking to the RichmondNews, however, Chhibbar was selfeffacing hearing about how grateful the family was that he and
others had stepped in to help.
“It makes me feel great – but it was a group effort,” Chhibbar told the News
But, for Chhibbar, the incident highlighted the need for everyone to learn CPR. It’s something he thinks should be taught in school to all students, making sure the next generation can respond with life-saving measures in critical incidents
‘Citizen responders’ needed: Retired Richmond paramedic
“Citizen responder” is the term Jeff Watts prefers to use when referring to non-professionals – family, friends, passersby - who respond to medical emergencies
The professionals who come after are actually the “second responders,” he added, which is why it’s crucial that those first at the scene have the knowledge to assess the situation and possibly perform first aid and CPR
In 1997, Watts was instrumental in setting up first responder coursesforhighschoolstudents,andcurrentlyall10Richmond high schools have first-responder teams that can provide lifesaving intervention in an emergency at school.
The importance of having “citizen responders” who know how to react in an emergency situation became evident to Watts shortly after the student training began
At the APEC summit in the fall of 1997 – and the ensuing riot – Watts was on the frontlines taking care of a patient behind a wall of protesters
All of a sudden, he heard a booming voice – “give them room to work” He looked up to see a petite Asian woman doing crowd control
Notonlywasheshockedthatsuchapetitepersoncouldcommand the attention of the crowd, but what really pleased him was seeing she was wearing a pin she’d received from one of the first responder courses
“Right there, it made the program all worthwhile,” Watt said. Watts, a retired Richmond paramedic, said “citizen responders” might just use the training once in their lifetime, but it could make the difference between life and death
The students who take part in the first responder course –done on weekends – are highly motivated to learn, Watts said
At times, however, it took some convincing of school administrators to have first responder teams comprised of students.
In 2000, one female student, Jenny Lucow, had done the training over two weekends – while on crutches the second weekend with a reconstructed knee
Student tended to heart attack victim
Justweekslater,astudentwentintocardiacarrestatherhigh school, McMath secondary, and Lucow jumped into action
In fact, she ended up instructing the gym teacher, who was the first aid attendant, on how to tilt the student’s head back to clear the airway She continued to respond until paramedics arrived
“When I got to work at the Richmond (ambulance) station, they were jumping up and down saying they couldn’t believe the call,” Watts explained
When Steveston Rotary heard about how she responded, they gave her a one-year scholarship, and she went on to an honours psychology degree looking into stress among paramedics She also become a paramedic and later a midwife
The stories about students responding to medical emergencies continue to pour in, Watts said, and a story like Chhibbar’s response is typical and commendable of young people knowing what to do in a critical situation
“Every year we get reports of youth acting beyond their years,” Watts said
In fact, at the O-Zone during the 2010 Olympics, all the firstaid attendants were high school students, he noted.
Watts encourages everyone to take a first responder course
Many people are afraid of doing the wrong thing in an emergency situation, Watts said, but “standing there and staring at the patient is the wrong thing to do.”
Taking a first responder course can break down the “mystery,” he added
In addition to first-responder teams at the 10 Richmond high schools, there are also 15 other schools in the Lower Mainland that have first-responder teams

Introduction
The 30 year Spouse
There are many cases being litigated now in B.C. with respect to Wills. Perhaps the most common case is with respect to variation. Our law has for many years given legal standing to spouses (married and marriage-like) and children (natural and adopted) of a deceased person, to seek a variation of their Will Generally, if the spouse or child is of the view that they are left an unfair (there are specific legal terms for it) portion of the Estate, they can pursue their legal remedies.
The law in this area has evolved significantly over the last thirty or so years. In a case, today, a Court will consider what legal obligations the deceased owed to the person claiming (for example, a minor is owed support), as well as what moral obligations the deceased owed to the person (for example, the deceased might owe a moral obligation to an adult child who was disinherited under the Will).
Earlier this month, reasons for judgment were released by the B.C. Supreme Court in a case called Lemire v Von Hollen. This is a case where a spouse, who was left a very small gift under the Will, sought a variation of the Will Facts
The surviving spouse lived with the deceased, in the lower mainland, from 1988untilthedeceaseddied,in2018.ThemainassetoftheEstateisahouse, which was sold after the death, for a net amount of just under $540,000. When the parties met, in 1982, the deceased had been divorced and was in a marriage-like relationship The spouse was in a marriage like relationship as well They ultimately started a relationship in 1988. Each of them had three (adult) children from their prior relationships.
Thespouselivedwiththedeceasedinherhouseandstoppedpayingrentnot long after their relationship was established They shared other expenses but largely kept their financial assets separate
They were both working at the start of their relationship The spouse worked in the construction industry and the deceased operated a day care The deceased retired in 2002. The spouse worked, though not on a full time basis becausehehadsurgeriestoreplaceshouldersandhips.However,hedidcare for the deceased on a full time basis as her health declined, around 2010.
The deceased made a Will in 2007. She bequeathed the sum of $10,000 to her spouse The remainder of her Estate was bequeathed to her children in equal portions.
The spouse was very thorough in caring for the deceased It was more than a full time job, as the deceased did not move to a facility Staying at home seemed to be what the deceased wanted but it required a lot of work by the spouse One of the deceased’s children retired in 2014 to assist with the caregiving The deceased started using an oxygen tank around 2010 but in 2014 she needed it constantly
The deceased gave her retired child Attorney status under a Power of Attorney, and appointed her representative under a Representation Agreement, in 2016. That did not change the spouse ’ s work schedule nor his commitment.
The deceased entered Hospital not long before she died, in 2018. After the death, the children told the spouse they would be selling the house It was sold about a year after the death. The spouse had to move into a trailer and lived from his pensions, which were only modest.
Court’s decision
The Court rendered a careful, thorough judgment. The childrens’ argument against a variation was that they did not see the relationship their Mother had as “marriage-like” They thought the spouse was a “friend” only
The Court, however, held that the relationship was marriage-like The current law, as recognized by the Court, includes that financial dependence and sexual relationship are not themselves indicative of a marriage-like relationship The Court will in all cases consider a wide variety of factors, including the relationship as a whole (other factors include shared shelter, societal activities and perception of the couple by others). The Court concluded that the relationship was marriage-like and the spouse was entitled to seek a variation of the Will
The relationship was a very long one, as mentioned The Court felt that a bequest of $10,000 was unfair The Court awarded an amount based on the deceased’s legal obligation towards him (as a spouse) and under her moral obligation also The Court awarded the spouse one-half of the net sale proceeds of the house, which amounted to just under $270,000.
Conclusions
It seems surprising that the deceased’s family could think, after a 30 year relationship, that the spouse was a “friend” There was ample evidence of a committed relationship The Court seemed to feel that the deceased was a privatepersonwithrespecttoherrelationshipsanddidnotwanttodiscuss that aspect of her life But it did not take away from the fact of a far too small bequest to a person who did more for her than she may have expected and was then forced to leave the house and subsist on an income below the poverty line This case was quite rightly decided The spouse earned this award of the Court.

Meet Alexander: Pet of the Week
VIKKI
HUIvhui@richmond-news com
He lost a tail, but he’s ready to embrace his new lease on life with a loving and compassionate family.
Alexander, a six-year-old grey and white domestic short hair cat, came to the Richmond Animal Shelter two weeks ago
His life as a stray was a difficult one, according to BC SPCA staff, as he arrived with an injured tail, a broken toe and a body “overwhelmed by a flea infestation ” His tail was ultimately amputated
Described as a “sweet and affectionate boy,” Alexander persisted through his recovery journey with “remarkable resilience ”
“He embraced his new lease on life with an inspiring blend of courage and optimism, quickly adapting to his altered physical
state,” reads the adoption page Alexander enjoys making two-legged friends and
loves human interaction Undeterred by his experiences on the streets, he dreams of “a cozy home
where he can share his warmth, affection, and unwavering loyalty with a loving and compassionate family.”
If you think your home would be a good fit for Alexander, here are some ways to find out:
1 ) Visit the shelter to meet this pet during adoption viewings Friday to Tuesday noon to 3pm, learn more about their ideal match, and apply to adopt in person; or
2 ) Submit an online application at adopt spca bc ca and staff will contact the first suitable adopter to set-up a visit! Kindly note that due to the high number of applications and the availability of walk-in adoptions an online applicant would have to be available to come in for a meet within 24 hrs.

Alan Campbell/NewsCamryn Rogers wins World Championship gold
ALAN CAMPBELLacampbell@richmond-news com
It was been a day of mixed emotions for Richmond’s World Championship-competing athletes in Budapest, Hungary
Stealing the show for Canada on Thursday was Richmond’s own Camryn Rogers, who sailed to a glorious gold medal in the hammer throw to claim her first world title and be the first Canadian female athlete to win a World gold since Perdita Felicien in 2003
“I feel over the moon … just so happy. At this point, I’m just speechless,” Rogers told Athletics Canada after her gold-winning 77 02 metres on her first throw
“Immediately afterwards, it was this moment of ‘What just happened?’, not being able to fully believe it ”
Rogers led from start to finish, her first throw setting an unattainable standard the rest of the field could not equal, with her also having the 2nd, 3rd and 4th longest throws of the final.
“Going into such a stacked field, with some of the best throwers in world history, who also are the most wonderful and incredible people as well,” Rogers said to Athletics Canada
“I feel like tonight I was able to execute the plan that my coach and I have been working on for so long, and it’s such a good feeling to see it all come to fruition ”
Richmond’s Camryn Rogers salutes her World Championship gold medal-winning throw Right, the moment she knew she had won Athletics Canada photos
Meanwhile, Richmond’s other athletics star, racewalker Evan Dunfee, narrowly missed out on the podium once more, this time in the 35 km event
The 2020 Tokyo Games 50 km Olympic bronze medal-
ist scored a 4th place finish in the 20 km race walk on the first day of the championships last Saturday
And he had to fight through the pain barrier again on Thursday – to score a season’s best time of 2:25:28 in the 35 km race.
“After the 20 km –I’m getting older – and my hamstring was really bugging me,” a heartbroken Dunfee told Athletics Canada “We did an amazing job to get it as good as we could and it felt pretty good for most of the race.
“Then at 32 km, it just went pop I thought I was done I didn’t know if I was going to finish To finish 4th again is absolutely heartbreaking I wanted to go medal or broke and I guess I went broke ”
Dunfee has a habit of finishing just outside the medals in major races, having done at the Rio Olympics in 2016
New coaches in as Sockeyes gear up for 52nd season
STEVE ERICKSON ContributorStarting any new season is an exciting time for any team, but for the Richmond Sockeyes skating into their 52nd one, it’s filled with not only excitement, but also enthusiasm
This past summer BC Hockey has reclassified all three Junior B leagues to have their status elevated to Tier 2 Junior A with a three-year window in place to Tier 1 Junior A
It’s important to know that there are 45 Junior A Tier 2 teams with 20 (KIJHL), 11 (VIJHL) and 14 in the PJHL with the possibility of expansion in the future
The history of the team dates back to 1972 with Bruce Allison as the original owner with the thought of giving local players a chance to play in their home area as well as stay in school
One of the current owners, Doug Patterson, was the team’s first captain of the Junior B franchise that had success then saw the team status elevated to Junior A in the PAC League, eventually joining the BCJALL
The off-season saw the loss of Richmond Sockeyes alumni Ray Sawada, whose passing in April has the upcoming season dedicated to his memory.
The 2023-24 season has a new look for the team, with it bringing on a new coaching
staff, with their sights set on not only making the playoffs, but pulling out a championship
This season, Cullen Revel heads the coaching staff with associate coach Bob Delorme, along with assistant coaches Hardarshan
Hoonjan and Spencer Beattie with Sukhjit Sanghera keeping the players healthy Training camp early in July saw an impressive turnout of players looking to crack the line-up being put through vigorous sessions, forcing the coaching staff to make
tough calls.
Decisions on the ice continue to be tough, but one that is welcomed is hearing that Mathew Steward not only returns, but will fill the role of captain
His overall playing style of grit, hard work and determination is a choice that the coaches clearly could not overlook This season the Sockeyes have set their sights focused on “Community First,” working with various schools and groups to put a first-class product on the ice as well as showcase the city of Richmond
Mini-minor hockey games will continue to be a between period feature that allows young players to be a “Junior Sockeye” along with between period interviews adding to the Sockeye Birthday Club
The Sockeyes continue to work with Richmond Minor Hockey Association, promoting “7th-Man-In” who wears a special jersey and skates a lap in the pre-game ceremony.
Richmond hosts the newest expansion team in the PJHL, the PoCo TrailBlazers in their home opener Sept 7 with the face-off set for 7 pm
Upcoming Games:
All games at 7 p m
September 14th Grandview Steelers
September 21st North Van Wolfpack
September 28th Port Moody Panthers
You’re going to lose access to local news on Facebook and Google.
Dear readers,
Your access to local, provincial and national news is going to be revoked on Google, Facebook and Instagram. And it’s not because of anything we’ve done.
Recently, Canada passed the Online News Act, also known as Bill C-18, which has led to a standoff between the government, Google and Meta the parent company behind Facebook and Instagram
Both Google and Meta have said they plan to cut ties with the news industry in Canada as a result.
This means Meta will block the posting and sharing of our news articles on Facebook and Instagram. Google will also remove links to our sites and articles in Google News, Discover and search results. They’ll also cancel significant content licensing agreements already in place with our parent company, Glacier Media
Undoubtedly, this will have a huge impact not solely on us but, more importantly, on people like yourself who may use these platforms to discover what’s happening in your community and to get context to events happening in your own backyard.
We’re not planning on going anywhere, but here’s how you can help:
1. Sign up for our free daily newsletter by scanning the QR code (And encourage your family and friends to do the same)
2. Follow us on Twitter
3. Bookmark our website as the homepage on your devices.
4. Consider becoming a member if you aren’t already. Your support will help us continue to cover local stories, by locals.
5. If you own/operate a local business, consider supporting local by placing ads with 100% Canadian-owned media outlets, like us.
With your help, more people will be able to get their local news from a trusted source In today’s age of misinformation, that’s more important than ever.
Thank you. We appreciate you.
Sincerely,

Steveston’s Aloha Hawaiian Grill raised more than $5,000 to benefit the Maui Strong Fund on Sunday
The Hawaiian eatery partnered with Paul Tavai-Latta Dancers & Co to sell Hawaiian food and showcase Polynesian dance performances every half an hour for eight hours to raise funds for the people of Maui recovering from the Lahaina fire
Isabel Angeles said the cash donations, tips and sales in the restaurant were roughly around $3,000 and the hula dancers raised just a little over $2,000
The eatery is still accepting any tips and donations until Aug. 31.
“I don’t think there was really any expectationonhowmuchwewantedtoraisebecause we are so new, but we were hoping we would surpass grand opening day, which I think we’re pretty close to,” said Angeles Line-ups were out the door and around the cornertosupportthebusinessaspeoplewaited to watch the performances and learned about the history of Hawai’i, what the dances mean and even what the different dance cos-
tumes symbolize
Angeles added the Steveston Maritime Festival, which was held at Britannia Shipyards on the same day, helped draw more crowds to their cause Angeles told the Richmond News the funds will be donated to the Maui Strong Fund to help the people of Maui temporarily pay rent, rebuild homes, and pay for basic necessities as they try to recover from the wildfire
