Ignatieff talks politics at Richmond High by Christine Lyon Staff Reporter A few hundred attentive students packed the multi-purpose room at Richmond secondary school Friday morning to ask questions of the leader of Canada’s Liberal Party. Michael Ignatieff, along with Vancouver Quadra MP Joyce Murray, Vancouver South MP Ujjal Dosanjh, and Richmond Liberal candidate Joe Peschisolido, were on site to address the comments and concerns in effort to get the future voters involved in politics. During the open mike session, Ignatieff explained that he first got involved with the Liberal party as a teenager when Pierre Trudeau was running for office. The first question came from a student asking Ignatieff to compare Canada’s universal

health care system to the American privatized model. “I think we do a better job,” said Ignatieff. “If any of you get real sick suddenly and you check into a hospital, nobody’s going to look for your credit card or your parents’ credit card.” He said universal health care is one of greatest things the government has done and it must be saved and made more efﬁcient. People were able to participate in the town hall meeting online, including one Twitter user who asked how the Liberal’s economic plan differs from that of the Conservatives. “We wouldn’t give corporations a $6-billion tax break,” Ignatieff started. “When you’re in a $56 billion hole, we’ve got to get our deﬁcit straightened out and...make some investments in learning and care.”

Conference. The theme of this year’s all-day summit at R.C. Palmer Secondary was Overcome Obstacles, Open Opportunities. And keynote speaker Law can certainly relate. Born without arms because of a morning sickness drug, thalidomide, taken by his birth mother, he was given up for adoption as a newborn and raised by foster parents whose love and encouragement helped to shape his independence. See Page 3

If the secret to good parenting could be bottled up and sold at the 7-Eleven, ﬂustered moms and dads across Richmond would no doubt be lining up around the corner with cash in hand eager to sample some. And since there’s no app for that yet available on iTunes, the next best thing might just be a conference next weekend at A.R. MacNeill secondary. And it’s free. The 12th annual Learning and the Brain Conference next Saturday (Nov. 20), from 8 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at 6611 No. 4 Rd., will feature keynote speakers Rob Inrig and Roger Garriock. Inrig is a counsellor and author, and Garriock is the director of Canadian operations for Destination ImagiNation. They will be speaking words of wisdom on how parents can “Achieve Gold Parenting for Success with a Finish Line Perspective” and will talk about what’s considered a must-have in the 21st century: Innovation Skills. More than 500 parents, grandparents, caregivers and educators took in last year’s conference and workshops. The conference, organized by the Richmond School District and the Richmond District Parents Association with help from the City of Richmond, SUCCESS and the Richmond Chinese Parents Association, will feature workshops and sessions in English, Cantonese and Mandarin.

COUNTDOWN TO BUSINESS EXCELLENCE AWARDS

Students get a ‘real life’ lesson From Page 1

“It hurt when I was young and labelled as a human who had no potential, but imagine my parents’ frustration,” Law said. Fortunately, none of them ever accepted status quo and Law not only became proﬁcient but excelled at many things—including playing both the piano and drums. “When my mom ﬁrst heard me play Chopsticks she cried, and then took me on the elderly women’s tea party circuit in Yorkton, Sask.,” Law said. “There’s nothing better in the world than a grandma hug.” But, he added, that kind of adulation is not real life. “Please take this the right way, but some of you are extremely over-

protected and I feel sorry for you,” he told the students. “At some point your parents are going to have to realize you’re a human too and you’re

“Do you think I ever imagined when I was six I would ever be cool? It’s possible.” - Alvin Law going to leave the nest, but like all birdies you’ll get up and ﬂy again.” He remembers as a teen feeling sorry for himself and managing to convince his parents to buy a drum set for him. “I pictured every person who bullied or picked on me, but one day my

dad said he was tired of the noise and gave me a Glenn Miller album and told me to pretend I was in the band. Finally, I got a Led Zeppelin album and then a Rush album and every day I practised and practised. All of a sudden it gave me strength. Do you think I ever imagined when I was six I would ever be cool? It’s possible.” But Law stressed to the students there is a profound difference between confidence and ego. He said unfortunately humans are cursed by their egos. “Never do anything with the intention of the applause,” he said. “It’s the wrong kind of energy. But when we start to empathize with people and understand them, we open up our minds to all kinds of possibilities.”

The great great niece of Samuel Brighouse, whose former lands are now at the heart of the transformation of downtown Richmond, was on hand to mark three major events in the city’s history on Wednesday. It was 131 years ago when Marjorie Knight’s great great uncle and a small group of settlers successfully petitioned the Lieutenant Governor to incorporate Lulu and Sea Islands as the Township of Richmond. And it was 20 years ago that Richmond received ofﬁcial city designation. The celebrations took place inside River Green Story Centre, a short walk from a construction site next to the Richmond Olympic Oval that’s going to be a beehive of activity on Saturday. Hundreds of cement trucks will be lining up beginning early Sat-

urday morning as workers begin to pour the foundation of the first phase of River Green’s landmark waterfront development. To mark that significant moment in the project’s history, a special ground-breaking ceremony also took place on Wednesday in front of the enormous excavation site adjacent to the No. 2 Road bridge. The still unfinished fourmetre-deep pit is already larger than a football field and will house the 800-car parkade beneath River Green, a luxury development whose first phase sold out in one weekend.

Prepare for Success in High School and Beyond

e.g. tea appreciation, Tai Chi, Kung Fu, Feng Shui, Chinese Medicine Class

For high school students, doing well on their ďŹ nal exams is a top priority since success on their ďŹ nals is the key to higher education. However, facing exams of such importance can cause stress and sleepless nights. So what can students do to feel less anxious and more conďŹ dent about their upcoming tests? The answer is simple: they must prepare, review, and practice the right way. Unfortunately, many students donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t inherently know how to study, and because effective study skills are not usually taught in school, many students are not getting the most out of their study time. The result is last-minute cramming instead of in-depth and meaningful preparation. A recognized test-preparation program is therefore a wise choice to help students make the best use of the months and weeks leading up to their ďŹ nals. Such a program will also help students on the day of the exam, helping them to focus on critical elements, prioritize, manage the allotted exam time, and avoid the disappointment of an unďŹ nished test. Final exams are seldom ďŹ nal exams. In fact, they often open doors to something bigger.

Oxford Learningâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Advantageâ&#x201E;˘ High School Success program teaches students the skills and strategies to ace their tests. These are precisely the skills that will help students excel in college or university. Students who retain the critical thinking, analysis, and integration skills they gained from the Advantageâ&#x201E;˘ program will undoubtedly have an advantage in their post-secondary and professional lives. It all begins with higher exam scores and Oxfordâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Advantage program is the best way to get them. Founded in 1984, Oxford Learning Centre helps students of all ages improve study and academic skills. With our help, your child can learn how to better manage his or her time, take effective notes, learn how to best prepare for tests and exams and more! For more information about Advantageâ&#x201E;˘ or any of Oxford Learningâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quality after-school programs, please call Seema Ahluwalia at 604-233-5566.

in the summer of 2008 to create huge algae and plankton blooms that provided Fraser sockeye with a tremendously rich food source, researchers told the commission. “There was a massive increase,” Dr. David Welch testified last week. “It was a very large eruption.” Welch tabled satellite imagery of the ash plume and the resulting plankton bloom, which he said could well be responsible for the tremendous productivity of the Fraser sockeye run that came back this year. The run size is estimated at 34.5 million, although officials expect the final count to drop to around 29 million. Crucially, the eruption happened just as a major storm system was pounding Kasatochi, helping disperse the ash over a wide area of the Gulf of Alaska. The summer timing also helped—long hours of northern sunshine grew more plankton than otherwise. And it all happened as young sockeye from the Fraser were arriving in that part of the ocean, just in time to gorge on the fish food bonanza at a critical stage of their growth. Scientists stress there are many other factors that could have contributed to the unusual return. But the theory is a signal this summer’s salmon bounty was likely a fluke and not a lasting rebound —volcanic eruptions can’t be counted on for consistent help. Also at issue in the inquiry is how far fishery managers should go in trying to protect the biodiversity of Fraser sockeye—essentially whether the weakest stocks should be sacrificed if strong runs returning to certain tributaries can sustain fishing. The commercial fleet is sometimes ordered to stop fishing to avoid endangering weak runs like Cultus Lake sockeye, which return intermingled with more abundant stocks like the Adams River run. Rob Morley, Canadian Fishing Co. vice-president and chair of the Fisheries Council of Canada, suggested a better way to conserve Cultus sockeye might be to ban all recreational activity on the popular boating and swimming lake. “We are under-harvesting Fraser sockeye significantly,” he said.

Touchstone Family Association has received city payments to help run the volunteer-based justice program since 2007, but the agreement expires at the end of this year. On Tuesday, Richmond council’s community safety committee unanimously voted to renew the same funding contract until 2013. Under the agreement, the city would pay Touchstone $95,000 a year to help operate the program. Founded in 2003, Richmond’s restorative justice program is a communitybased alternative to the court system where trained volunteers bring local victims, offenders and their families faceto-face for discussion and reconciliation. Coun. Bill McNulty said there was some skepticism and risk entering the initial funding deal, but he now supports the contract renewal. “It would be reprehensible if we didn’t continue on with the contract,” he said. “It works, and we’re getting good value for our money.” McNulty said the alternative—the court system— would “cost an arm and a leg,” and success rates are just two or three per cent. Recidivism rates under the restorative justice program were set out in an earlier report to council for youths (age 17 and under) referred from 2004 to 2006. The rates of re-offence for those who completed their agreements was 12 per cent, versus 61.5 per cent of those who were referred but did not participate in a forum. All of the adults who participated did not reoffend, but 31 per cent of the adults who were referred but did not participate in a forum re-offended. Touchstone partners with the RCMP to get referrals. A 2010 “snapshot” presented to council showed that, as of Sept. 24, the program has had 41 referrals, compared to 32 in all of 2009. It has also held 25 community justice forums, compared

to 23 in 2009. This year, there have also been 12 community accountability panels, which occur when victims are unable to meet with offenders. Two-thirds of the offenders referred committed

opinion No one stepping up for premier’s job It’s the job no one wants — at least right now. Last Wednesday, Premier Gordon Campbell stated that he was stepping down, as his personality had become so entangled with the issue of the HST that the business of government was getting bogged down. Right away, there were rumours of many potential candidates, from within the Liberal cabinet and caucus, and outside. Thus far, no one has stepped forward. Several people have said no. They include John Furlong, the CEO of the Vancouver Organizing Commitee for the Olympics; Carole Taylor, former finance minister and Aboriginal Relations Minister Barry Penner. Several others are said to be interested, but remain coy. They include Fort Langley-Aldergrove MLA Rich Coleman, a 14-year MLA who has held many cabinet positions. He is currently solicitor-general, and minister of public safety. Other possible candidates include Education Minister George Abbott, Health Minister Kevin Falcon and Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts. Abbott stated in an interview Wednesday that he is definitely interested, but needs to find out final details about the leadership selection process from the B.C. Liberal Party. He suggested that the leadership issue should be decided as soon as possible, preferably before the legislative session begins in February. He also made the intriguing comment that all potential candidates from within cabinet have agreed that the party, and particularly MLAs, must rally around the new leader. He said the government has dug itself into a deep hole with the public, and only a united party has a chance of digging its way out. His point about the public’s opinion of the government is a very important one. It is also a very important factor in keeping the number of leadership candidates down. Anyone who has embraced the government’s handling of the HST issue, and that includes all members of cabinet and caucus, with the notable exception of Blair Lekstrom, is tainted in the minds of many members of the public. It’s no wonder so few are stepping forward to express interest in the premier’s job. — Black Press (Langley Times)

Shades of Green Arzeena Hamir

couple of months ago, I was woken by some tremendous banging coming from downstairs. Very loud burglars? Hydro readers working overtime? My husband was away on business so there was no one else to kick out of the bed to go see what was going on. By the time I made it down the steps, it became apparent that the banging was coming from the laundry room, and more specifically, from our washing machine. I had just stuffed the machine with a load of kids clothes plus a duvet and, well, the machine was having none of it. And, like any woman with no mechanical inclination would do, I just turned the machine off, hoping that the problem would fix itself in the morning. No such luck. My husband and I had bought our machine a mere

seven years ago when we moved back to Richmond. At the time, $600 for the washing machine felt like a huge sum but I was committed to using a front-loading machine that used less water and power than a top loader. Plus, the fact that we could stack the dryer on top enabled us to fit a laundry sink in the extra space. We treated our machine well. I only bought the high efficiency laundry detergent (plant based) and never used more than suggested. The morning after the banging started, I tried to run the machine empty, hoping the noise would go away, but as soon as the spin cycle started, the banging began again. Some technical intervention was obviously required. When hubby came home I explained the situation, and we began calling around repair places to see what this might cost us. We had done some research online (thank goodness for Consumer Reports) and found that this model of washing machine was prone to breakdown in its spider assembly behind the washtub. When the repair quotes started coming in, we were in for a shock. It would cost us $100 for diagnosis (even though we were pretty sure what the problem was), over $200 in parts, plus at least

I was committed to fixing the machine. Over my dead body would we landfill a machine that was fixable. My husband was just as adamant that he was not spending good money after bad. We were at an impasse. another $200 in labour. The repair bill would be almost as much as the machine cost in the first place. That’s when the fights started. I was committed to fixing the machine. Surely, washing machines were supposed to last 20 years. It would be an investment. Over my dead body would we landfill a machine that was fixable. My husband was just as adamant that he was not spending good money after bad. He was sure that as soon as we began fiddling with the machine, other parts would start to break down. We were at an impasse. In the meantime, the laundry began to pile up. Luckily, the weather was still fairly warm and my poor kids were sent to school in shorts and skirts. My moth-

er-in-law offered the use of her machine and we loaded the car with four hampers full and did our laundry at her house. This went on for a whole month! Neither my husband nor I were willing to compromise and I certainly wasn’t going to help shop for a new machine. Finally, my husband took matters into his own hands and placed an order for a new machine. When I saw the total, over $1,500, I blew my stack! Apparently, not only did we have to replace the washer, we now needed a new dryer since our old one wouldn’t sit well on top (apparently). Sensing World War Three approaching, my in-laws kindly asked if they could please have our dryer because theirs was starting to go. I posted an ad for our old washer, in the free section, and amazingly, someone came by to pick it up. Saving the machines from landfill soothed my guilty conscience, somewhat. The moral of the story? Apparently, large appliances are no longer built to last. If you’re thinking of upgrading your old machine to a newer one, just to keep up with everyone else, think twice.

letters Refugee rights violated by federal bill Editor: Bill C-49, the new proposal to reduce human smuggling, is a ﬂagrant violation of the 1951 Refugee Convention, the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, the Convention on the Rights of the Child, and dismisses equality provisions in the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Canada has signed on to these international treaties and the Harper government has an obligation to uphold and respect them but has decided instead to ignore them. The amendments to the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act place draconian restrictions on asylum seekers if they arrive in Canada as part of a group, branding their arrival as a human smuggling event. This bill would end up creating two classes of refugees and would only violate refugee rights. Hatem Ela-Alim Richmond

Scooters should get free parking Editor: The latest adventure in city hall silliness is the so-called “green ﬂeet” of city-owned bicycles that nobody wants to ride. Staff admit the bicycles are rarely used at city hall. According to the story, the plan is intended to “cut down on the number of car trips and parking spaces.” If the city was serious about cutting down on the number of parking spaces needed in the city, they’d be promoting all kinds of tiny transport, not just their silly green bicycles which they admit nobody wants to ride. They’d encourage people to freely park mopeds and motorscooters, but instead city hall harasses motor-scooter operators by ticketing scooters when they’re not parked in a full-size parking stall.

City needs new approach to community plan changes Editor: Richmond’s affordable housing crisis can be addressed through an informed and co-operative approach. A productive solution would be to invite designers of modular granny ﬂats to display their prototypes somewhere in the city. If a homeowner decided to build a granny suite, the usual rezoning process would give neighbours opportunity to provide input. However, instead of cooperation and consultation, Richmond’s 2041 ofﬁcial community plan process is being used as a tool to effectively rezone all single-family neighbourhoods to multiple family density. This approach will attract speculators, increase prices, and eventually drive out individual homeowners.

At the neighbourhood open houses, city planners told individuals to organize their neighbourhoods if they do not like the plan. Why must neighbourhoods be on guard against their own local government? Many Richmondites, including those who are comfortably housed, are concerned about the city’s drive to attract expensive developments. One of the recent social planning study circles sponsored by the city concluded that while Vancouver is working to become the greenest city, Richmond wants to become the most expensive. This route is not sustainable. Destroying the neighbourhoods that currently provide affordable secondary units is not the solution. Marion Smith Richmond

letters We are all people of the same mould Editor: There are many volunteers serving in local organizations that are focused on trying to make our city a better place for all of its citizens—and visitors. Underlying these services is the common understanding that all of us share

planet earth as our common home. The majority of people want to live in a world free of conflict, corruption, and discrimination. Most agree that to reach this happy state requires all of us to make changes in how we think, feel, act and how we organize

our collective life. One small action that would be enormously helpful would be to

eliminate the words “race” and “racism” from our vocabulary and textbooks.

Whenever those words are used, there is an immediate false wall of separateness that springs up amongst people with different physical characteristics.

We are all people, created by the same creator in the same mould, but we are only beginning to incorporate into our hearts, minds and actions the reality of our oneness.

The elimination of the false, man-made concept of race would be a big step on the path that we must travel together. Merrill Muttart Richmond

For the Àrst six years Dave’s was take-out at a Chatham St. location until he expanded to his current Moncton St. location and began dine-in. Dave’s became a community favorite and soon visitors were spreading the word. From Expo 1986 to the recent 2010 Olympics travellers came to Steveston to eat at the “world famous” Dave’s. Many local students can say their Àrst work experience was at Dave’s. One person however, Bev, has loyally been with dave’s since 1986. Since 1992 Dave’s son Byron has been learning the business and has now taken over the day-to-day operation with the same commitment to quality and customer satisfaction as his father. The summer of 2010 brought the Àrst major renovation in 32 years. Only interior changes were undertaken as the building is designated as heritage. Whenever possible, Dave’s proudly serves locally grown products. One of the Àrst restaurants to convert to transfat free cooking oil.

Home construction rebound fuels job growth Construction workers, trades and other industries related to home building are basking in a surge of new housing starts that has added thousands of jobs in the Lower Mainland. Metro Vancouver has recorded 12,584 home starts so far this year— nearly double what was admittedly a dismal 2009 in the depths of the recession. This year’s new home construction is estimated to support 35,235 fulltime jobs, according to Greater Vancouver Home Builders’ Association CEO Peter Simpson. That’s 22,000 more jobs than the industry generated in 2009, he said. He conceded the construction industry still has a long way to go to reach the pre-recession building pace, when nearly 20,000 units a year were going up across the region. But Simpson said the numbers are going in the right direction. — Jeff Nagel

Major improvements will be made to the pump station at the foot of No. 3 Road as part of an effort to reduce the risking of flooding in the city. The city, province and federal government are jointly spending $450,000 to install inlet screens, and the existing inlet structure will be removed and replaced with an expanded one made of concrete. The alterations are intended to prevent blockages caused by wood debris or leaves that affect pumping capacity, including during flooding events. “By upgrading the No. 3 Road pump station, we’re ensuring the facility operates better to protect homes in the area,” said Richmond-Steveston MLA John Yap. Across the province, Ottawa and Victoria are jointly spending $8.8 million in flood protection projects. —Martin van den Hemel

Junior Wildcats aiming high Consistency a key to McMath’s challenge for volleyball supremacy by Don Fennell Sports Editor Sports is full of age-old adages, some more true than others. Like success breeds success. At R.A. McMath Secondary, where each of the school’s volleyball teams sport impressive records, junior girls’ coach Rob Forbes believes whole-heartedly his Grade 10 team beneﬁts greatly from a winning environment.

“Offensively we’re fairly strong, and we have some middles who can hit the ball fairly well, but I think our greatest strength as a team is consistency.” - Rob Forbes “McMath is a bit of a hotbed for volleyball and the younger kids see the success of the older kids,” he says. “And for the most part they’re coached by teacher-coaches, which I think helps too because they get to know each other better.” The junior Wildcats, which will co-host (with StevestonLondon) the provincial championships Nov. 26 and 27, completed Richmond league play as the only undefeated team at 8-0. But neither Forbes or his players are satisﬁed just yet. As co-hosts they automatically qualify for the B.C. tournament, but

they’re intent on earning it at next week’s Vancouver and District playdowns. The Wildcats made it to the 2009 provincial junior tournament playing up a year as grade 9s, and finished 11th out of 16 teams. “At the beginning of this season our goal was to finish in the top four at provincials,” Forbes said. “But there are a lot of good teams and we don’t get to see them all during the season.” To help expose them to more top-level teams, the Wildcats played in several tournaments. And for the most part they performed well in all of them. In early September, the Wildcats tipped off their season by placing second at their first invitational tournament at Kelowna Christian. After not playing particularly well in losing to the host team in pool play, McMath rebounded with a stronger effort in the final. Later, McMath competed well against a Pacific Academy team from Surrey at the Seaquam Seahawks’ tournament. Two weeks ago, at Coquitlam’s Riverside Secondary, they defeated a Kelowna secondary team many pundits believe is another top-flight contender in three games. And last week, in what Forbes considers their best efforts to date, the Wildcats defeated Earl Marriott and Seaquam on their way to a first-place finish at the North Surrey invitational. The Wildcats still have plenty to learn, of course. But Forbes is confident their athleticism, coupled with a strong, competitive fire should at least

position them to take a legitimate shot at the 2010 provincial title. “I would say we’re in the top four and when we’re ﬁring on cylinders we’re tough to beat,” says Forbes, who began coaching this group of girls as grade 8s. “Offensively we’re fairly strong, and we have some middles who can hit the ball fairly well, but I think our greatest strength as a team is consistency. We’ve got all the components, so if one person is not going so well we’ve got ﬁve others who can pick up the slack. Everyone is capable of contributing.” It helps, too, that the 10 in-

dividuals that make up the junior Wildcats also play club volleyball with Richmond’s vaunted Air Attack program and/or community soccer. “These kids are in great shape and that’s helped to win us some matches because the season’s a long haul,” Forbes says. Mental toughness is another notable quality among the team, which was highlighted in a come-from-behind victory over Dr. Charles Best at the Riverside tournament. They were down 14-6 at one point in the opening game. The Wildcats’ genuine love of the game and desire to improve is also readily ap-

parent. “They’re always working on their consistency, and in practice we try to push them to a point where their execution is as good as it can be,” Forbes explains. “Rick Hansen (whose daughter Rebecca is one of the top setters in the province) has been very good in helping critique the game and offering a different perspective as a parent.” Like many of her teammates, who are also exceptional academic students, Hansen is a great role model because of her work ethic. “She works very hard at the game and is a huge advantage to the team if we don’t get that

perfect pass because her forte is being able to make a good set out of a poorly passed ball,” says Forbes. The remainder of the starting lineup features middles Katrina Tolentino and Natasha Magnus, powers Amber Pomeroy and Danielle Kiss or Dana Archer, and offside Hillary Schaap. Niki Galvina, who is just back from an injury, also plays the middle, while Katrina Tan is another offside and sometime libero, although Forbes rarely employs a libero in games. “We use it once in a while, especially if we need to give someone a breather,” Forbes says.

Chung wins marathon kendo match

Sockeyes blank Panthers, 5-0

It’s a good thing Bill Chung has both stamina and the ability to stay focused. He needed them last weekend in Seattle, where the Steveston Kendo Club athlete fought for 20 minutes before winning a third degree black belt match that extended into overtime. Among the other Steveston athletes to compete in the Pacific Northwest tournament, which featured fighters from as far as Hawaii, were Sean O’Sullivan and Kauto Knecht (both fourth in the 13-15 age group); and David Yao (first), Leo Leung and Ryan Wiebe (second) and Brian Murphy (third) in the senior non-degree 0-4 kyu division.

Richmond Sockeyes won for the 12th time in 18 games last Thursday, blanking the visiting Port Moody Black Panthers 5-0 at Minoru Arena. Aaron Oakley made 21 saves for his ﬁrst shutout of the season. The Sockeyes are third in the Paciﬁc International Junior Hockey League Tom Shaw Conference, three points back of both Delta and North Delta. Sockeyes were slated to play Grandview on Nov. 11.

Women honoured for contributions to sport Olympic sprinter, athletics organizer/administrator and cookbook author Diane Clement, national women’s basketball coach Allison McNeill, and B.C. Wheelchair Sports executive director Kathy Newman were recognized last week as the 2010 honourees for In Her Foosteps….Celebrating BC Women In Sport. The program, a shared project of the BC Sports Hall of Fame, ProMotion Plus, 2010 Legacies Now and the BC Centre of Excellence for Women’s Health, annually recognizes up to three women who have made signiﬁcant contributions to girls and women in sport, ﬁtness and healthy lifestyle initiatives in B.C. Their stories are featured in the In Her Footsteps exhibit at the BC Sports Hall of Fame. Clement competed on Canada’s 1956 Olympic team, earned a bronze medal at the 1958 Commonwealth Games and went on

to serve as president of Athletics Canada. She and husband Dr. Doug Clement also co-founded the Richmond Kajaks Track and Field Club and the annual Vancouver Sun Run. Clement received a Queen’s Jubilee medal for her contribution to ﬁtness and sport and in May 2010 Diane and Doug Clement received the International Lions Medal of Merit for their lifetime contribution to sport and healthy lifestyle. McNeill has devoted her life to basketball, from inspiring and mentoring young children on the court to developing and nurturing promising talent to coaching top players in B.C. and Canada. From 1988 to 2001 she coached the Simon Fraser University women’s basketball team, leading the team to compete in 11 NAIA championships. From 1998-2000 she served as head coach of the national junior team and has coached the Canadian women’s team since

2002. She is committed to developing youth coaches and in helping athletes succeed as students and community members. Kathy Newman joined the BC Wheelchair Sports Association in 1981, serving as ofﬁce manager before advancing to executive director in 1986. With considerable energy and enthusiasm she has helped create opportunities, in sport and in life, for people with disabilities. She co-chaired the 2009 Americas Cup International wheelchair basketball tournament and Canada’s successful bid to host the 2010 World Wheelchair Rugby Championships (games were played at the Richmond Olympic Oval) , and has worked with government and business to increase funding and awareness. Through her work also emerged Bridging the Gap, a program encouraging individuals with disabilities to participate in wheelchair sports and recreation.
