Campbell’s resignation shocks MLAs Gordon a goner ahead of HST vote by Christine Lyon Staff Reporter Premier Gordon Campbell’s resignation as leader of the B.C. Liberal party yesterday came as a surprise to Richmond MLAs. “I was shocked as all other British Columbians are,” said Richmond-Steveston Liberal MLA John Yap. “Premier Campbell, I’m convinced, will go down as one of the greatest premiers that the province of British Columbia has ever had,” said the saddened MLA. Yap pointed to B.C.’s strong economy as something to thank Campbell for. Richmond Centre Liberal MLA Rob Howard did not expect the announcement either. “I was very surprised,” he said. Howard did not attribute the resignation to any one thing, but said the HST has proven “not a very popular tax.” “It’s always a difﬁcult decision,” he said of Campbell’s resignation. “Nobody likes reading about single-

digit poll numbers.” Howard could not yet speculate who will replace Campbell. “It’s going to be a challenge for us to come up with another leader that has that kind of skill set.” He said Campbell’s legacy is “remarkable,” pointing to the Canada Line and Richmond Olympic Oval as things Campbell pushed for. Campbell made his announcement Wednesday in downtown Vancouver. “After considerable soul searching and discussion with my family, I’ve decided to ask the B.C. Liberal party executive to hold a leadership convention at the earliest possible date to select a new leader of the party,” he said. Campbell applauded the personal income tax cut and education initiatives announced during his TV address last week. “It is clear to me that those initiatives have become overshadowed,” he said. “When public debate becomes focused on one person as opposed to what’s in the best interest

of the province of British Columbia, we’ve lost sight of what is important. When that happens it’s time for a change,” he said. “It’s time for a new person to lead the province.” He said his decision is in the best interest of British Columbians, the provincial government and his party. Everyone’s attention should now be focused on helping the economy rebound from global recession, he said. He added he hopes his resignation will allow British Columbians to fully consider the HST and its alternatives before the September 2011 referendum. De Whalen, president of the Richmond Women’s Resource Centre, says getting rid of the Liberal leader won’t change the party’s policies when it comes to cutting services and privatizing health care. “[The Liberals] are in dire trouble and I think they ﬁgure that they can get themselves out of that trouble by cutting off the head,” she said.

Young teen lured online by Martin van den Hemel Staff Reporter

Michael Surran photo Police are warning parents to monitor their children’s activites on the Internet.

COUNTDOWN TO BUSINESS EXCELLENCE AWARDS

A 22-year-old Burnaby man is facing seven criminal charges including sexual assault after he allegedly befriended a young teenage girl over the Internet. Andrew Bielby-Job was charged in Richmond provincial court on Wednesday morning with two counts of communicating via computer to lure a child under 16, sexual interference of a person under 16,

invitation to sexual touching under 16, sexual assault, importing or distributing child pornography and possession of child pornography. Richmond RCMP Cpl. Sherrdean Turley said the victim is from Pitt Meadows. Police investigators were alerted by a counsellor, and launched an investigation in September that culminated in this week’s charges. Turley said the victim and the Burnaby man met in Richmond and that at least some of the offences

are alleged to have been committed here. Parents are cautioned that they should remain vigilant about monitoring their children’s activities on the Internet, Turley said. They should try to be aware of what their children are doing online, who they are talking to and monitor their activities. The family computer should be in a central location in the home, rather than in the bedroom where activity is harder to monitor.

Toilet rebate could increase

City mulls more staff to pick up transit trash

Anti-Semitic graffiti spoils mostly quiet Halloween in Richmond

Richmond residents could get further incentive to trade in their older toilets for more eco-friendly alternatives. City staff are recommending the per-toilet credit under the city’s toilet rebate program be increased from the current $50 to $100. The maximum allowable credit would be $200 (or two toilets) per household for replacing a 13-litreper-ﬂush toilet with a six-litre or lower toilet. The move is meant to encourage more participation in the toilet rebate program and promote water conservation. To date, approximately 260 toilet rebates have been issued at a cost of $13,000. —Christine Lyon

Richmond council is looking at ways to keep litter-laden Canada Line stations along No. 3 Road tidy. On Monday council’s general purposes committee voted to hire a full-time litter attendant to clean up around the stations. The position would add $79,500 in salary to the proposed solid waste and recycling budget for 2011. The issue divided councillors. Some felt a litter attendant is needed to clear coffee cups, newspapers and other accumulated debris, particularly at Brighouse Station and the surrounding area. Others suggested instead adding more waste and recycling bins and sharing cleanup responsibilities with TransLink and potential future kiosks. Council will review the effectiveness of the litter attendant position in six months. —Christine Lyon

Anti-Semitic graffiti sprayed at Westwind Elementary School put a major damper on what was otherwise a quiet Halloween night. “A fair bit” of spray painting occurred at Westwind on the weekend, according to Richmond school district secretary-treasurer Mark De Mello. “Seeing it is very distasteful,” De Mello told The Richmond Review. The graffiti was quickly cleaned up and covered by staff Monday morning, he said. Two other schools were also hit with minimal damage that totalled a few hundred dollars. Shattered glass from a broken window at Walter Lee Elementary was cleaned up and the opening boarded up Monday by the time students arrived at school. There was also some graffiti sprayed at Tomekichi Homma Elementary, not far from Westwind elementary. Otherwise “it was a very quiet night,” De Mello said. The lack of vandalism is a tribute to the patrols by school district and city staff, as well as police, fire and neighbourhood patrols at this time of year. —Martin van den Hemel

GREAT PROMOTIONS AT

Celebs film rom-com in Steveston by Martin van den Hemel Staff Reporter Those familiar with the Steveston Community Centre and the karate dojo might recognize those backdrops in the movie This Means War, slated for a 2011 release. Oscar winner Reese Witherspoon (of Legally Blonde fame), Chris Pine (whose coming out party was the starring role of a young Captain Kirk in the re-imagined Star Trek last year) and Tom Hardy (who starred in the summer blockbuster Inception alongside Leonardo

DiCaprio) were in Steveston shooting the romantic comedy from Oct. 20 to 24. Witherspoon plays the woman that two lifelong best friends fall for, prompting an epic battle between the buddies. Sci-fi TV show Fringe was ďŹ lmed on the 23000 block of Dyke Road in East Richmond, near Hamilton. And Human Target was also filming here late last month. The TV show was ďŹ lming underneath the Dinsmore Bridge on River Road, just east of the Richmond Olympic Oval.

Drunk driving charges dropped against cop Charges stem from 2007 incident by Martin van den Hemel Staff Reporter An off-duty Mountie who was charged with a number of driving-related offences including impaired driving in 2007 had the case against him dropped late last week. Const. Kulwant Singh Malhi was in Richmond provincial court last week, when the Crown issued a judicial stay of proceedings. No comment was available from the Crown or Mounties. The Richmond Review ďŹ rst reported in December 2008 that Const. Kulwant Singh Malhiâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;who at the time was a 10-year member of the forceâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; was charged in connection with a hit-and-run accident. Malhi was off duty and driving a Nissan Altima around 3 a.m. on Oct. 20,

2007 when he allegedly rear-ended a Honda Civic near No. 4 and Francis roads. Police received a report about the crash and the fact the Nissan left the scene. A short time after the collision, police received a call from a motorist who reported an impaired driver heading south on Highway 99. The caller followed the vehicle until it stopped in the driveway of a home in Ladner. When Delta Police arrived, they arrested Malhi for impaired driving. He was working in the plainclothes unit at the time and was driving an unmarked police car. He had just ďŹ nished his last shift a few hours before the collision in Richmond. Malhi was suspended with pay. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still on paid leave pending an internal investigation.

Metro board passes hefty regional fee hike by Jeff Nagel Black Press A typical home will pay $513 to Metro Vancouver next year for regional servicesâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;an increase of $44â&#x20AC;&#x201D;despite opposition from some mayors and councillors.

Richmond’s ranking on BC Hydro’s Top 10 Power Smart Partners list is only the beginning... Just imagine our energy savings and reductions of greenhouse gases if everyone in Richmond took on one new power smart tip. Get started today: t Turn off the lights when not in a room

Richmond has just been recognized as the only city in BC Hydro’s Power Smart Top 10 Partners list.

t Turn off your computer monitor when not in use t Unplug all your chargers when not in use t Visit bchydro.com for more ideas Here’s what the City of Richmond is doing: t We have been building our energy program since 1990. We’ve been progressively reducing our impact on the environment while signiﬁcantly reducing our energy use and costs. t We have advanced a wide range of smart-energy initiatives, including the incorporation of energy saving technology. Here are some examples: upgrading ongoing capital projects around the city such as trafﬁc lights, drainage pump stations, as well as building and lighting systems. new LED lights with smart controls recently installed at Minoru Park not only make the trails safer for runners and walkers, but also use almost 90% less energy than a conventional lighting system. All pot lights at City Hall were converted to LED lighting this summer. over the past two years, the City’s energy conservation initiatives have reduced greenhouse gas emissions from City buildings equating to taking 100 cars off the road for a year.

It all adds up!

Pair charged with selling drugs For the second time this year, Richmond Mountiesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; drug target team has shut down a drug trafďŹ cking group. Early last month, Mounties launched a street level drug trafďŹ cking investigation on a group selling methamphetamine in Richmond and south Vancouver. According to police, they honed in on two individuals who they believed were the heads of the street level organization. On Oct. 14, Mounties executed a search warrant at a home on No. 5 and Montego roads, where they found a man and woman inside. Jungy Perida, 41, and Laarni Espina, 30, were arrested and charged.

Still waiting for adult tax debate

B.C. Views Tom Fletcher

ike knights in a medieval reenactment, B.C.’s political combatants strapped on their armour to take the ritual sword-swipes over Premier Gordon Campbell’s latest income tax cut. Public sector unions were

quickest to rattle their chain mail. The teachers and nurses were outraged that $600 million wouldn’t be extracted from the paycheques of working people each year and added to the already swelling health and education budgets. CUPE president Barry O’Neill weighed in: “It’s almost comical to see Mr. Campbell descending to the point of trying to entice voters to support the HST with their own tax dollars.” Almost comical? This self-serving routine by the public sector elites with their defined-benefit pensions is downright hilarious. Private sector jobs ultimately support the entire apparatus of government, a fact that still seems to elude these ancient

gladiators of the left. Campbell wasn’t much more convincing when I interviewed him the day after his $240,000 TV infomercial to unveil the 15-per-cent reduction of personal income tax, effective New Year’s Day. “The really important thing here is this is separate from the HST discussion,” Campbell said. “This is about leaving more money in people’s pockets.” Right. And the HST is about removing more money from people’s pockets. I had assumed that since the first third of Campbell’s TV address was devoted to his now-familiar defence of the HST, as a lead-up to the income tax announcement, there was some connection between the two.

But apparently I was wrong. The timing of the secondbiggest income tax cut in B.C. history has nothing to do with public outrage over the HST, or Campbell’s dismal popularity. It’s just the latest step in the master plan that began the day Campbell took office and slashed the personal income taxes by 25 per cent. Regular readers will recall I predicted Campbell would use the TV address to announce a cut in the HST rate, as soon as the contract with Ottawa allows him to do it in July 2012. But reducing the HST rate to 11 per cent would likely have cost the government more revenue. The income tax cut also has the benefit of showing up before people vote in the HST referendum next fall.

I suggested to Campbell that the average person would look at a sales tax that shifts about $2 billion annually from business to consumers, and an income tax cut that puts $600 million back in their pockets, and conclude that they are worse off. He replied that “the arithmetic doesn’t work like that.” From an individual taxpayer’s point of view, the premier is correct. But the combined effect of the HST and this income tax cut is middle class and wealthy individuals as a group paying more, and businesses paying less. Which brings us to another rusty old argument from the left: The income tax cut helps wealthier people more than poor ones. Yes it does. If you make

$40,000 in 2011, you will save $236. If you make $80,000, you will save $616. You’ll probably spend those savings and more on consumption taxes, depending on how much you spend beyond necessities. I’ve been berated by readers for defending the idea that consumption taxes are better than income taxes. This would seem particularly true for B.C., where baby boomers will retire in droves in the coming years. We want people with money to move here and spend here. I assume that’s part of Campbell’s strategy, but maybe it’s too politically incorrect to say it out loud. Tom Fletcher is a columnist for Black Press.

Better Grades Happier Kids

B.C. government ‘continues to deliver’ Editor: Re: “Parents call on Liberals to boost school funding,” Letters, Oct. 30. We introduced class size legislation to improve the classroom experience for all our students. The record shows we’ve done that. Since Bill 33 was passed, 99 per cent of

all B.C. classes have had 32 or fewer students and 95 per cent of all classes have had 30 or fewer students. And we continue to support our commitment to B.C. students by providing school districts with record levels of funding. Let’s take a closer look at Richmond. This

school year, the district is expected to receive more than $172 million in operating funding, an estimated increase of nearly $29 million since 2000-01. In fact, even with a modest drop in enrolment over the same period, per student funding in the district is estimated to be 27 per cent higher.

Fall leaves and trimmings Help keep your neighbourhood safe and attractive With the fall season comes the beautiful colour of leaves. What also comes with it is the work needed to rake and dispose of leaves and other fall trimmings. Richmond residents can dispose of leaves and trimmings in three ways: • Compost them in backyard compost bins which can be purchased from the City for $25. • Recycle them through the City’s Green Can program (please note: this program is only available to residents in single-family homes or those currently receiving City’s trimmings service). • Drop-off unlimited amounts of leaves and trimmings at Ecowaste Industries (Triangle Road off the south foot of No. 6 Road) or up to one cubic yard of trimmings free of charge at the City Recycling Depot (5555 Lynas Lane).

Leaves can accumulate around drains (storm grates) and block rain water from draining. This can also lead to localized flooding. To prevent this: • Please do not rake leaves from your property or boulevard onto the sidewalk or street. Leaves on sidewalks can present a slipping hazard to pedestrians. • Remove leaves and other debris away from road drains/storm sewer grates to keep a clear path for water drainage.

Construction advisory October 18 – December 31 The City of Richmond has contracted Triahn Enterprises Ltd. to upgrade and install new storm sewers at the following location in Richmond from October 18 to December 31, 2010:

Who would paint a tree blue? Editor: “Green space could go blue,” Oct. 28. To quote the poet Joyce Kilmer: “I think that I shall never see / A thing as lovely as a tree.” Who in their right mind would even think of painting a tree blue? A tree is one of nature’s beautiful creations and an important part of the ecosystem. If any member of the public painted a tree it would be considered vandalism, not artwork. Please let’s have some sanity from Richmond’s council and donate the $25,000 to the food bank. Remember one child in ﬁve in Richmond goes to bed hungry every evening. Anna Paul Richmond

Garry Point’s ‘monstrosity’ Editor: Re: “Art blocks ocean view,” Letters, Oct. 28. I could not agree more with Teresa Rush’s sentiments regarding the red monstrosity in Garry Point Park. This does absolutely nothing to enhance the serene beauty of the park, and the only reason I have been able to tolerate it at all is because I knew we’d only have to endure it until next June. It would be marginally more acceptable if it was a lovely ocean blue, but red? That’s not even an appropriate colour for something entitled Wind Waves! Carlie Holland Richmond

School of acoustic rock From happy things to sad things to ancient Greece, Richmond teacher tunes up for first solo show by Christine Lyon

Cameron Dempsey

Staff Reporter Dressed in black from head to toe, Cameron Dempsey helps a student tune up her new red-and-white electric guitar outside Lord Byng Elementary School. It’s after 3 p.m. and Dempsey has sent his Grade 6/7 class home for the day. Now he can turn his attention to his other career—music. The Steveston resident is gearing up to perform at the Richmond Cultural Centre on Saturday night as part of Cherelle Jardine’s Musical Expressions series. This show marks Dempsey’s debut as a solo musician. He will be playing songs from his upcoming album, set for release next summer. Before he can book time at the recording studio, however, he has to ﬁnish his master of education degree at University of B.C. Born in Scotland and raised in Richmond, Dempsey was previously the lead singer of pop-rock band Fits of Glory. He describes his solo work as more honest and emotional with meaningful, selfconscious lyrics. On Saturday he will play mostly acoustic

Three of Dempsey’s students will back him up on maracas and rainsticks for one number. The boys caught wind of their teacher’s gig when they overheard him practising “Let Your Love Grow.” They liked what they heard and asked to join him on stage. It’s not uncommon for Dempsey to hold impromptu jam sessions at recess and lunch hour with his students. He also brings music into the classroom as a learning tool.

a long way to get the kids hooked on ancient Greece, he says. Aside from his educational ditties, all of Dempsey’s lyrics are tied to real life experiences—both happy and tragic. He plans to perform one song Saturday that pays tribute to a colleague who passed away over the summer. “It’s basically about the relationship that still exists between his young daughters and him that will be a lifelong thing even though he’s passed away.” Dempsey ﬁrst started writing songs as a way to deal

with death. He lost a few people in his life and, at 28, taught himself to play guitar as a coping mechanism. “Now I write stuff about happy things and sad things,” he says. One big source of joyful inspiration is his 20-month-old son Kai. “When he’s happy and excited I’ll just sit and write a song—a fun little jingle—and he starts dancing,” Dempsey says. “From that comes out a song.” His musical inﬂuences include Coldplay, James Blunt, the Doors, Sting and deﬁnitely

the Beatles, as evidenced by a framed poster of the British band on his classroom wall and his son’s middle name— Lennon. “I had to ﬁght my wife a little bit because I wanted it for the ﬁrst name,” Dempsey laughs. She vetoed “Jude” outright. Dempsey will likely play a Beatles cover on Saturday and the last four songs of his set will pick up the tempo. “It’ll be a little bit louder with kind of a band atmosphere with some drums and bass and electric guitar,” he says. Dempsey looks back on his

Fits of Glory days fondly. The band performed at big nightclubs in Vancouver, got radio play, went on a small tour and put out an album. But with that success, the group became somewhat of a company and Dempsey was concerned about impressing the audience. As a solo artist, he has shifted toward complex and intimate songs. But some tunes, like “That’s Why I’m in Love,” are just simple, feelgood pieces. Though Dempsey’s job requires him to stand in front of a crowd every day, it can still be frightening singing about personal feelings on stage. He’s getting used to it though. “Now I feel really quite comfortable with expressing myself.” Dempsey is not using Saturday’s gig to supplement his teacher’s salary, but to get exposure. He plans to donate all proceeds from the concert to the Richmond Food Bank. “This year I’ve just learned so much about the poverty issues in Richmond alone,” he says. “There’s a lot of people in a lot of need and I feel incredibly fortunate to be a teacher.”

Homes: industrial is in Make your home modern and chic with pieces inspired by the past MAGGIE CALLOWAY When deciding how to decorate, homeowners may find it tough to choose an interior design style that suits their lifestyle, their taste and their home.

Industrial-style home design has been identified as an up-and-coming trend by many industry experts, a mode of décor that can bring to mind a New York Soho loft – or a Yaletown loft in Vancouver – and the lifestyle that goes with it. Perhaps some homeowners prefer to hearken back to a slower time, when furniture was passed down through the generations, when the nicks and bumps were things of family folklore. A time some like to recall as safer. Chic industrial design usually incorporates

Finalists for this year’s Georgie Awards have been announced, and several Metro Vancouver builders and renovators have made the final cut. The premier housing event for B.C., the Georgies recognize the best of the best in home construction, renovation, design, development and sales/marketing. “From architectural elegance to energy efficiency, B.C. builders and renovators have weathered the storm of the economic recession in 2009 and have come out on top in 2010,” says Georgie Awards executive producer Scott Whitemarsh. “This year’s finalists prove that high standards, innovative ideas and sheer guts push the cream to the top.” Awards are being presented in 43 categories this year, including two new categories: Best Outdoor Living Space and Best Condo Renovation, to reflect what is happening in the local industry. Finalists in all categories were selected from hundreds of nominations by a judging panel of out-of-province industry experts. Many finalists are also members of the Greater Vancouver Home Builders’ Association. “Even in a difficult market, the quality and creativity demonstrated by the finalists show why residential construction continues to be the economic engine of British Columbia,” Whitemarsh says. According to the Georgie Awards website, the winners will be announced in January, followed by an awards gala in Vancouver on March 5. Visit www.georgieawards.ca for a list of finalists and look for further Georgie details in New Local Home later this month.

stand the neighbourhood, its unique culture and the desire of its residents to protect what they had built there since 1888. Amacon was sensitive to the pride the locals took in the distinctive, one-of-a-kind stores owned and operated by craftsmen and artists in the historical Vancouver neighbourhood. The company looked at how many stores sold the furniture of yesterday, still beautiful and sturdy, with many more years of service left in the solid wood and cloaked in a patina only possible after years of care. To naturally fit into the existing community, Amacon designed a building that honours the neighbourhood. District show suites in the new homes were designed with a tip of the hat to the simplicity of culture, in a trendy, industrial chic style. “Discovery consists of looking at the same thing as everyone else and seeing something different,” says Gary Friedman, chairman of Restoration Hardware. The Vancouver business owner commissioned a new direction in a furniture line that has excited both designers and clients alike with its chic, industrial style. “We’ve embraced that same sense of discovery in our creative pursuits, each day looking all around us to find the extraordinary in the ordinary, the new in the old,” says Friedman. “Our appreciation of great architecture and

collection of salvaged fragments from historical buildings inspired this season’s unique collection of lighting.” Such items include a barn door trolley pendant, fashioned from a reproduction of an antique cast iron trolley, threaded with cloth cording and fitted with vintage-style filament bulbs, he notes. “It is truly a one-of-a-kind piece,” Friedman says. A hand-carved Corinthian column lamp is a reproduction that once graced a building façade in Europe, he notes, while balcony railings from France, crafted of forged iron, were transformed into the store’s French architectural railing sconces. A whole collection of artifact lamps, mounted on museum bases, feature a lion’s head cornice, a Louis XV rococo fragment, a 19th-century Parisian gate

railing, and a Belgian heraldic shield that dates to the 1890s, for example. “This collection lets people put furniture in their homes that is not just functional,” says Restoration Hardware store leader Dorothy Bozek. She notes the “industrial edge” interior design style can mean incorporating pieces into the scheme that are interesting from a structural point of view, from a pair of calipers to an old pulley. “Each piece has a story. What using these industrial (pieces) has allowed us to do in design is to have that juxtaposition, that tension between the old and the new,” Bozek says. “You will have an old steamer trunk, like they had on the Titanic, and then you put your Apple laptop on it ... old and new, and old tech and new tech.” Placing some high-gloss pieces next to a distressed item of furniture will give the design architectural shape that tells a story with lowtech and high-tech details, she says. “We are pulling from the past. We want you to have a conversation (about your interior design); we want your guests to ask about the coffee table,” Bozek says. For Metro Vancouver homeowners looking to update their homes with an industrial chic look that melds modern and historic with a trendy flair, Restoration Hardware is just one option among many. Surplus stores may yield school desks, tables and stools, while farm sales are good to peruse for interesting pieces of machinery that can be repurposed. Garage sales may even lead to the discovery of a perfect industrial-style treasure. In uncertain economic times, homeowners may be striving toward a greater understanding of permanence and an appreciation of things of substance; perhaps that explains the popularity of industrial-flavoured interior design over the past year.

Speakers included Fort Langley-Aldergrove MLA Rich Coleman, who was B.C.’s Minister of Housing Rich Coleman and Social Development prior to a recent cabinet shuffle (he is now B.C.’s Minister of Public Safety and Solicitor General), the B.C. Real Estate Association’s chief economist Cameron Muir and Urban Futures Cameron Muir Institute executive director David Baxter.

The purpose of the event is to provide a forum so government and industry representatives can openly discuss barriers and solutions to improve market housing affordability in B.C. – not social or subsidized housing, a CHBA BC release notes.

“Beyond our honoured speakers, the highlight of this event is the professionally facilitated roundtable discussions,” says CHBA BC president and symposium chair Bob Deeks. Issues discussed include community planning, maximizing housing stock, economic issues and regulatory constraints. “The ideas brought forth will be incorporated into the symposium’s Action Plan to

Address Market Housing affordability and can be implemented over the short, mid- or longterm,” says Deeks. That document will be shared with government and industry later this year and will “form the foundation of future discussions between all stakeholders,” the CHBA BC says.

The agreement includes a hat trick of exciting announcements: a ďŹ ve-year NHL partnership, the launch of the NHL-powered Canadian Tire Hockey School (CTHS) and the naming of Stanley Cup winner and Olympic Gold Medalist Jonathan Toews as CTHS founding member and ofďŹ cial spokesperson. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest retailer of sporting equipment and a brand steeped in Canadian history, Canadian Tire is who Canadians trust for their ďŹ rst pair of skates, stick, helmet and pads. Over the past 90 years, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve equipped millions of ďŹ rst-time hockey players, like Jonathan Toews, from head to toe,â&#x20AC;? said Mike Arnett, President of Canadian Tire Retail. Further developing a grassroots connection in Canadian communities, Canadian Tire will launch the Canadian Tire Hockey School NHL Skills Camps. These unique camps will provide Canadian minor hockey players the opportunity to develop and grow their skills through on and off ice skill development sessions led by experienced NHL hockey experts, with appearances by NHL alumni and coaches. In addition to becoming an OfďŹ cial NHL Partner in Canada, Canadian Tire will now be designated as an OfďŹ cial Partner of the NHL Heritage Classicâ&#x201E;˘, NHL All-Star Game, Stanley CupÂŽ Playoffs, Stanley Cup Final and NHL Face-Offâ&#x201E;˘. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Expanding our reach into new categories like this will continue to increase the NHLâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ability to reach and unite Canadian hockey fans.â&#x20AC;? Selling more hockey sticks and pucks than any other retailer in the world, Canadian Tire has been the inspiration for millions of hockey ďŹ rsts for players from coast to coast. The CTHS website will offer unparalleled content for Canadian hockey players, parents, coaches and fans. From how to play on a backyard rink or advance in a local house league, to knowing how hockey gear ďŹ ts and what it costs, CTHS will offer unique subject matter expertise and practical insights into how to mentor, parent and become a well-rounded player. CTHS members also will receive exclusive NHL-related offers and promotions, including a chance to win a trip with two tickets and VIP treatment to the NHL All-Star Game, the NHL Heritage Classicâ&#x201E;˘ and a Stanley Cup Final game.

it. There are a dozen or more restaurants at the end of Alexandra near Garden City. If I’d been told it was in the old General Paint store, well, then I’d know where I was going. Landmarks are disappearing in Richmond, but I still navigate by what used to be there. Spicy Stage Café, which opened in August, is hidden by a row of trees. The name of the restaurant is difficult to see, but it is adjacent to So Hot So Pot, so look for that restaurant and you will have found the café. HK cafés say they are open 24 hours although they generally open at 5 a.m. and close at 2 a.m., but in Richmond the hours are more limited. Spicy Stage is open from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. Black wood, taupe accents, carved black and white wall panelling, Hong Kong-imported furniture, and modern light fixtures create a calm, clean environment. The place is small, which translates to cozy. The kind of place you’d like to turn to for a bowl of soup when the winds are blowing. The decision making is the most difficult part of this culinary adventure. Fortunately, I have guidance. “Try the Baked Spaghetti with Cheese & Meat Sauce.” It’s comfort food, a surprising find. The chefs stir-fry the cooked spaghetti noodles with butter in a hot wok before adding the sauce. My chopsticks return again and again to the plate. I am not qualified or knowledgeable enough to judge the food at Spicy Stage Café, but I encourage you to try something new too. You don’t have to travel to Hong Kong for a new experience. (Who knew there were Hong Kongstyle cafés in Richmond?) If you love a bowl of noodle soup, curried and spicy dishes as I do, then give it a try. The spaghetti too.

All You Can Eat!

Recovery story ‘eye-poppingly frank’

ice Recovery by Susan Juby is by turns funny, horribly sad and starkly insightful.

It’s an engaging memoir by a woman whose experiences with alcoholism and drug abuse at a young age are eye-poppingly frank. Like she says “…who wants to admit that addiction has you in a bear hug and is eating your face? No one.” Except Susan Juby. Juby is a 13-year-old girl living in Smithers, B.C. when she starts drinking to excess. We’re not talking about your adolescent experimentation with booze at weekend parties. We’re talking about a series of alcoholic binges followed by blackouts, followed by more drinking and cocaine snorting. You get the picture. Flunking out of school, Susan is shipped off to live with aunts and uncles in other cities, in the hopes that she’ll straighten herself out. No such luck. She soon graduates from all-night partying to depression and mental breakdown, all because of her alcoholism. Juby moves on to heavier alcohol and drug abuse but manages to enter a fashion design school in Toronto. Chronicling her ability to fake her way through most

Twin Oaks opens riding academy by Don Fennell Sports Editor

endra Eitel grew up in a family where education was a priority. She heeded her parents’ advice, but found a way to include a love for horses in her post-secondary studies.

Now, at 26, she’s putting both to good use teaching at the newly-created Twin Oaks Riding Academy in Richmond. The local academy differs from many equestrian schools because of its comprehensive goals. Rather than solely providing riding lessons, Eitel and head Twin Oaks’ trainer Trevor Graham are dedicated to teaching all aspect of the equine world. “I went to school under the premise that this was what I always wanted to do,” said Eitel, who, in addition to competing in intercollegiate equine competitions, graduated from Virginia Intermont College in 2008 with a bachelor of science in equine studies and a minor in sports medicine. Her passion for horses was further illustrated by her writing a thesis paper on equine metabolic ﬁtness. She also spent two years in Toronto as a student instructor at York Equestrian Riding School and trained, showed and sold horses and managed the Trillium Horse Show ofﬁce.

Though she grew up in Burnaby, Eitel spent a lot of her childhood taking riding lessons in Richmond. She became fascinated with horses while reading the Riding Academy book series. “It was one of the first books I bought,” she said. Eitel was eight years old when she finally convinced her parents, who were both terrified of horses, to let her take riding lessons provided it didn’t deter from her academic studies. Now the teacher, Eitel is excited to be able to help others learn, and grow, through riding lessons. While learning to ride a horse, students of the Twin Oaks Riding Academy will also have the opportunity to develop a love of the sport and even gain a better sense of who they are and their environment, said Eitel. “There’s so much technology in the world,” she said. “A lot of children and adults are focused too much on the inward things and forget how to connect outwardly. Horses definitely can provide that. You can’t be on a horse and be completely inward. They are so keen to pick out whatever weakness you have, but they’re very gentle and want to help you gain balance. I see horses as spiritual helpers.” Therapeutic riding has proven to help improve the lives of people with mental and physical disabilities. Through improved balance and co-ordination, they

Kendra Eitel brings a great understanding and appreciation for horses to her teaching role at the new Twin Oaks Riding Academy.

also gain increased self-conﬁdence and independence. The riding program at Twin Oaks can be as basic or complex as the student chooses. Adopting the Equine Canada Rider Level Program into the training, students in the English Rider Level 1-10 sessions are encouraged to learn and enjoy the equestrian

sport while following a progressive path of learning towards safe and knowledgeable horsemanship. Spring, summer and winter camps provide snapshot opportunities for children and young adults to participate with horses on a recreation and fun-based program. Clinics, workshops and classroom lectures are available

for those who need or want extra room to grow outside the arena. Resources include equine books, powerpoint presentations and hands-on experience outside of the saddle in order to develop a higher standard of participation in the sport. “I’ve noticed horsemanship is not directed the same way it was when I was growing

up,” said Graham, who was drawn to the equine world as a youth in his native Ireland. “Basically, what these young people do today, as Kendra did, is go to university to ﬁnd out the mechanics and medical end of things. That’s stuff we learned as kids, but that are not in practice today. There’s no apprenticeship to the sport or job.

“What Kendra brings is a real in-depth study (of the equine world),” continued Graham. “There’s a lot of places where you go and give them your $50 and have your riding lessons. You don’t know anything about the horse you’re on or anything else. This is a real education for anybody, whether you want to be a rider or not.”

sports Autumn Special

The Richmond Rugby Club’s Second Division team continues to sport a perfect record this season. And it has two of its ageless veterans to thank. Tim Ross and Jamie Overgaaard’s effort isn’t just contagious, but effective. The pair combined for three tries last weekend in 35-5 B.C. Rugby Union win over United. It was Richmond’s seventh consecutive victory. Richmond wasted no time putting their expertise to work, which really consisted of keeping the ball in hand and supporting each other in contact. Not afraid to take the ball from anywhere on the field, recent import Arnaud Saultier from France opened the scoring after finding a gap between the centre and wing. Joe Vernier also scored a try for Richmond, while Richard Sison kicked two converts and a penalty. Eric Wood also added a penalty kick. •In First Division play, Richmond outscored United 28-21. But it wasn’t as easy as it perhaps should have been against an 0-6 United team. Poor starts, or more specifically an ability to convert early scoring chances, have seemed to hamper Richmond’s first team all season. RENTALS 706

after Alex Brown went off injured, and subsequently scored a nice try with three United players pretending to be winter coat for Findlay. United answered with a try of its own after a dubious penalty call. Not to be outdone Richmond added a ﬁnal try by Lance Davison. Both Richmond sides now enter the top four round -robin to help decide which teams will advance to the Spring B league. •Richmond’s U-17 squad lost a close one to Rowing Club 20-7. Austin Matilda scored the lone try for the locals. Next game will be at home against the Meralomas this coming Sunday at 12:15 p.m. at Kinge George Park.

Veterans still producing for unbeaten locals

United took advantage to tally 14 points to Richmond’s paltry three points off a penalty kick in the opening half. The second half was pretty much the same—except for the last 15 minutes. It seems that Richmond excels when it has the ball in open play. Despite the abundant number of knock-ons and balls lost in contact, the last 15 minutes saw some outstanding rugby by the Richmond squad. The onslaught would lead to four tries and a penalty kick. Martin Urbanowitz ﬁelded a poor clearance kick from the United squad at about their 22-metre line and bowled over several players to touch it down. John Findlay was moved into the centers

Richmond Hospital Foundation puts on the Ritz

Around Town Amanda Oye

parkles and champagne were never in short supply at the Richmond Hospital Foundationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 12th annual Starlight Gala Saturday at River Rock Casino Resort. The gala raised $430,000 through ticket sales, silent auction items and other donations. The event was started 12 years ago to raise money directly for the foundation, according to Diane Dupuis, who co-founded the gala. She describes the event

as being â&#x20AC;&#x153;the most spectacular event that Richmond hosts.â&#x20AC;? And it has improved from when she ďŹ rst began it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was always fabulous, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just a step above now.â&#x20AC;? Tickets cost $250 each, and much more was spent bidding on auction items.Various companies donated the items, which ranged from Canucks tickets to weekend getaways. A full crowd of 464 people came out this year, all dressed up for an evening of socializing, drinks and dinner. Among those in attendance were surgeons, lawyers, politicians and community philanthropists. Money raised this year is designated to beneďŹ t the Operating Room Equipment Campaign. Amanda Oye covers the social scene for The Richmond Review. Reach her at amanda. oye@telus.net.
