TEEN DIES AFTER INGESTING LETHAL DRUG

Fundraiser started for memorial service NewWest police say they are hoping people who may know where drugs came from will come forward By Cayley Dobie

cdobie@newwestrecord.ca

The family of a teenager who died in New Westminster Friday night is raising funds for her memorial. Angel Loyer-Lawrence was

with a group of friends when she and another girl took what they thought was the drug MDMA (also known as Molly). Moments later, the New Westminster Police Department was dispatched to the 1300 block of Hamilton Street, but, by the time officers arrived,

Angel was dead and her friend was in serious condition. On Saturday, Angel’s family started a GoFundMe page to raise money for a memorial service for the “smart and enthusiastic” 16-year-old. More than $2,700 of the $5,000 goal has already been

Lalji: ’Boro bus service survey too narrow

School trustee says questionnaire should have been available in multiple languages to reach more residents By Cayley Dobie

cdobie@newwestrecord.ca

School board trustee Mary Lalji is continuing her fight to get a bus service between Queensborough and New Westminster Secondary School. Lalji took aim at the transportation survey sent

to families of kids attending New Westminster Secondary School or in Grade 8 at Queensborough Middle School, saying the questionnaire should have been distributed in multiple languages to take into consideration the diverse population of Queensborough. “I feel the district did

not make the effort to address cultural diversities,” Lalji said at Tuesday’s board meeting. The surveys were sent in English only, which Lalji argued excluded some families from having their voices heard and unfairly limited the number of responses it received in return.

The survey asked whether families were interested in a paid bus service between Queensborough and the high school, which is located at Eighth Street and Eighth Avenue near Moody Park. A total of 273 surveys were sent out, 47 were returned completed and less than half of those indicat-

ed they were interested in a paid bus service. A report by district staff concluded that a bus service wouldn’t be possible without a significant subsidy. Lalji thinks by not providing copies in other languages, the district inadvertently limited the number of surveys that were returned

completed. In Queensborough, 41.5 per cent of the population speak a language other than English at home, according to 2011 census information. In fact, six per cent of the population can’t speak English at all, according to the Continued on page 8

SUMMIT EARTHWORKS | DERWENT WAY SOIL TRANSFER AND BARGE FACILITY

In December 2016, Summit Earthworks submitted a project permit application to Port Metro Vancouver to develop the Derwent Way Soil Transfer and Barge Facility at the parcel southeast of the intersection at Derwent Way and Salter Street in New Westminster on federal lands and waters managed by the Vancouver Fraser Port Authority. The proposed project is to facilitate the transfer of waste soil (concentrations less than the BC Hazardous Waste Regulation Criteria) up the Fraser River by barge to an appropriate disposal facility in Mission, BC. As part of the Project and Environmental Review for the proposed project, consultation with the public and stakeholder groups is required. The Port Authority is conducting formal consultation activities with stakeholders as part of the permitting process. Summit Earthworks is required to send a notiﬁcation letter to the surrounding community to gather feedback about the proposed project and construction activities. For more information about this project, please visit bit.ly/DerwentFacility All questions and comments regarding this proposal should be forwarded to the following contacts at Port Metro Vancouver and Summit Earth Works: Myles Hargrove by email at info@summitearthworks.ca or phone at 604-820-0569.

QUEEN’S PARK HERITAGE CONSERVATION AREA POLICY OFFICIAL COMMUNITY PLAN AMENDMENT BYLAW NO. 7926, 2017

Connaught Heights Traﬃc Calming Plan Workshop Connaught Heights Elementary School gym

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

The Queen’s Park neighbourhood is being considered for a Heritage Conservation Area. Should the policy be approved by Council, houses built before 1941 would require heritage permits for demolition or exterior renovations to the front, sides and visible rooﬂine of the house. Heritage permits would not be required for standard maintenance to the exterior, any changes to the interior or rear of any house, or for existing buildings with a construction date of 1941 and later. Those properties built before 1941 which have speciﬁc site characteristics that might preclude them from achieving full development entitlement under the Zoning Bylaw would form a special protection category in which a heritage permit would only be required for demolition of the house. All new house construction in the neighbourhood would be subject to mandatory design guidelines. The policy would only apply to properties zoned single detached dwelling (RS-1, RS-2, RS-5, RS-6). For further details on the proposal, please visit www.newwestcity.ca/qpnhs.

City Weather taking its toll on New West’s trees Theresa McManus

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

New Westminster’s treeprotection bylaw aims to grow the number of trees in the city, but Mother Nature is making it a bit of a challenge. A large branch on a horse chestnut tree on the main path in Moody Park came crashing down on Sunday afternoon. “It wasn’t something that was really obvious, but we think these storms we have had have caused the problem.With all the weight of all the new growth, it can’t hold that much pressure and they tear out,” said Claude LeDoux, the city’s manager of horticulture. “We are now having to take it all down.” Staff cordoned off the area so they could assess the tree. “They said, ‘No, we can’t leave this,’” LeDoux said. “They started removing it right away. Once that tear-

out happens, the tree is unstable at that point.” No one was injured when the tree fell. That same afternoon, a tree at Reliance Court and Quayside Drive suffered a similar fate. “Same thing,” LeDoux said. “I had just left Moody and was going back home while the staff were working on it and I got the call on that. I went back up, grabbed the arborist and

went there and she removed it.The tree is still standing. That one branch was taken away, but we will end up having to take it down.” Wind storms, heavy rains and other weather conditions in the past year may have contributed to conditions that have affected some trees, LeDoux said. “I think we are being pushed by weather systems that some of the trees aren’t used to,” he said.

Opinion OUR VIEW

Clark takes the high road – for now She didn’t play hideand-seek with reporters or their questions. She didn’t take the opportunity to go after her opponents. She wasn’t defensive or dismissive. In fact, when Christy Clark spoke to the media on Tuesday about her plans and her plans for the B.C. Liberal Party, she was the epitome of leadership and class. Kudos

to her. She says she’ll take on the position of leader of the Opposition if it comes to that, and she seemed clear that that was a very large possibility in the near future. In fact, she said she will position the legislature for a potential vote of nonconfidence by the end of June. She could have strung it out for a couple

of months and tested the NDP-Green brotherhood for awhile. But she appears to have put the need for a functioning government in B.C. ahead of personal political motivations. And, yes, we can already hear the pundits saying it’s all a time-stalling act. And, yes, we know there was almost certainly a political calculation in the way she deliv-

ered her message, but we’d like to give her the benefit of the doubt this time. Because, frankly, she appeared a bit sad but nonetheless at peace with her new, albeit temporary, position of being the ruling underdog. Perhaps that is where she is most comfortable. She’s often at her best when she’s fighting for a place at the table – and

operating in opposition against a two-man brigade will test those skills. For B.C., in our opinion, this is good. If the taxpayers of B.C. are left with an NDP leader challenged by a Green backseat driver, and facing a tough critic such as Clark, voters may get the best of both worlds. The votes in the legislature will still be close,

forcing, we hope, rational compromises on any number of issues. Voters may witness true dialogue in the legislature after so many years of rubber-stamping and short sessions and pandering to one political base. Perhaps we’re being overly optimistic. But at least for now we’d like to believe in a kinder, more democratic B.C.

MY VIEW KEITH BALDREY

So close and yet so very far apart It’s been noted by many that this past election was the closest one in British Columbian history, yet in some ways it was anything but close. Sure, the overall popular vote was a virtual tie, as just 1,568 votes separated the B.C. Liberals and the NDP. And the two parties almost matched the same seat count: 43 for the B.C. Liberals and 41 for the NDP (while the B.C. Greens grabbed three seats). Pretty darn close. But there were actually 87 separate elections that took place, one in each of the province’s ridings. And from that perspective, not many were close contests at all. In fact, in the vast majority of them – more than 70 – the result was a virtual runaway victory for one of the parties. Just 13 ridings were decided by less than a 10-point difference between the winning candidate and the second-place finisher. And of those, only five were really close (less than a 1,000-vote difference). How does that compare to the previous election, in 2013?Well, that year there were twice as many ridings that saw less than a 10-point gap, and three times as many ridings decided by less than 1,000 votes. In other words, there were a lot more close “elections” in 2013 than there were this time around. What may explain this lack of drama in most individual ridings is that widening rural-urban divide. When the actual voting results are examined in detail, they show in graphic detail how the ground has shift-

ed politically for both of the major parties. The NDP, for example, grew its support in whopping numbers in much of MetroVancouver: gaining more than 17,000 new voters in the Surrey ridings, more than 20,000 inVancouver, more than 10,000 in the Tri-Cities and almost 6,000 in Burnaby. And in the normally B.C. Liberal stronghold of Richmond, the NDP vote went up by more than 10,000. The B.C. Liberals suffered significant losses in all these locations, especially inVancouver where their support dropped by about 10,000 voters overall. Outside of urban MetroVancouver, however, the numbers are largely reversed. In the Okanagan, the B.C. Liberals grew their vote by 27,000 or so and boosted it by more than 7,000 in the Central Interior and the North.The NDP, meanwhile, lost almost 10,000 voters in both regions. It’s clear the Green party boosted its vote in many of these areas, but that only partly explains the big shift. This election seems to have entrenched the B.C. Liberal Party as the representative of rural and regional parts of B.C. And the NDP has morphed into an urban and suburban party with little connection to the rest of the province (save Vancouver Island and the north coast).Yes, it was a super-tight election. But in so many ways it wasn’t, and I’m not sure that’s entirely healthful in the long term. Keith Baldrey is chief political reporter for Global B.C.

A New Westminster man got more of a light than he bargained for when he went out for a smoke on his sister’s balcony in September. A lightning bolt hit a corner of the apartment building at 1116 Hamilton St., missing him by two feet, according to his sister, Brenda Van Donkersgoed.The bolt hit right where the electrical wires entered the three-storey building, blowing a transformer and igniting a fire as it travelled inside. Nine of the building’s 43 suites were severely damaged. Four suffered water and smoke damage.

Letters Water is plentiful, but management is poor

NewWest’s heritage deserves protection

Dear Editor: Re: We are simply gluttons for fresh water, Our View, New West Record, May 25. I would like to present my view. I have noted that over the years our consumption of fresh water per capita has steadily decreased. The overall consumption may well have marginally increased, but that was purely due to our larger population increase. In my view, the fault lies in inadequate planning in managing our storage capacity of fresh water. We squander our water resources by dumping most of it directly into the ocean. For water that flows into the Capilano Lake reservoir, 70 per cent is dumped into the ocean due the inadequate storage capacity. Similarly for Seymour and Coquitlam reservoirs. There has been no increase in the height/capacity of our dams for decades. The fault lies not with the public – but with our planners and politicians who have idly let this happen. How can some desert areas in the world – for example the French, which built a large desalination plant for Israel – supply sufficient water for their needs and at a price per unit volume that competes with ours, while we, living in a rainforest, cannot? It defies belief! Stop this social engineering and plan properly for our future generations. Corrie Kost, by email

Dear Editor: Change is hard but ultimately rewarding. Each time I visit my daughter, I look forward to reading the community paper, and this time I feel compelled to write this letter of support for the great work you are doing to plan for growth in the future while also protecting your heritage by establishing a heritage conservation area (HCA). I live in Oak Bay in Victoria; a community with many beautiful older heritage homes and lovely character homes built before 1950. Only 28 are designated, and our register includes just under 100 properties. Like New Westminster, we are being “rebuilt,” but unlike your community, this means that our older single-family homes are simply being replaced by larger single-family homes – it does not mean we are building new multi-family housing or innovative infill housing to address the need for housing choices and new options. I read with interest the articles on your new HCA and applaud the community for moving forward to protect Queen’s Park from the wrecking ball and unfettered development. This area is unique now in the Lower Mainland and deserves protection. Jan Mears, Victoria

ASK THE EXPERT Q: I’m suffering from unbearable hot ﬂashes, which are affecting my sleep and mood. Is there anything I can do to manage these symptoms, naturally?

A. Yes, there are several factors which may need to be considered. Hot flashes are the most common concern of early menopausal women in my office. Hot flashes affect 75% of menopausal North American women. Hot flashes are a sudden feeling of warmth felt in the chest, neck, and face that spreads over the entire body and can be followed by sweating and sometimes diz- Dr. Andrea Gansner, Naturopathic Physician ziness. These sensations can be a cause of great discomfort and affect mood and sleep quality in many women. Uncovering imbalances by analyzing symptoms and performing lab tests are essential to understanding hormonal issues. Many hormones in the body interact covertly and therefore testing is crucial to determine these interactions. In my practice, I recommend a variety of treatment strategies that are tailored to the specific patient’s needs. Often, I advise my patients to avoid common triggers, such as: hot drinks, spicy foods, alcohol, foods containing histamine (cheese and red wine), chocolate, caffeine, stress, red meat, peanuts, shellfish, and dairy to decrease the hot flashes. In addition to avoiding these foods, I have my patients incorporate flax seeds into their diet. Ground flax seeds contain the polyphenols, lignans, which have been found to alter estrogen’s effects or metabolism in the body. They are also a fantastic source of fibre, which slows the absorption of foods, balances blood sugars and increases feelings of satiety. There are also herbal treatments commonly used for hot flashes. These medicinal plants have been shown to decrease sweating, sleep disturbances, tension, mood swings, and low libido in early menopausal women. Finally, depending on the extent of the symptoms or hormonal imbalances, bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) can be a powerful option. BHRT is the therapeutic use of hormones that are identical to the hormones produced naturally in the body, which act to return the system to balance. If you are wondering about what treatments are right for you, make an appointment with a health care provider specially trained in the management of menopausal symptoms. 604.544.POLO (7656) I www.polohealth.com 711 Columbia Street, New Westminster Hours of Operation: Monday-Thursday: 9am-7pm I Friday: 9am-6pm Saturdays: 9am-5pm I Sundays & Holidays: Closed

The program, which serves vulnerable students from across the Lower Mainland, currently supports 66 students between 16 and 18 years of age. “Angel joined us at POWER only a few short weeks ago, but in that time we were pleased to see that she had made friends and was making good progress and she was proud that she was on the road to graduation. She was open and outgoing and helpful with staff and students alike.We will miss her very much. Our hearts and our thoughts are with her family and all others with whom she was close and whose lives she touched,” said Steve Inniss, principal of POWER, in a statement to the Record. Angel’s death has had an impact on everyone at POWER, Inniss said. Some students arrived at school an hour-and-a-half early

I think we’re a very inclusive district “I think we need to correct this. I think we’re a very inclusive district, and I think we need to be more sympathetic to the cultural and language differences within our growing community,” she said. Lalji made a motion to discuss her concerns at the school board’s next operations policy and planning committee meeting on June 13.The motion was supported by the other trustees.

She will be missed: Angel Loyer-Lawrence, 16, died Friday night after taking what she thought was the drug MDMA (also known as Molly). Another girl – also 16 – took the same drug and was admitted to hospital in critical condition. PHOTO GOFUNDME

on Monday so they could speak with staff about the tragedy.The POWER team has been working with them ever since. “We’re a small community and, of course, people of that age form attachments quite quickly. Angel was somebody everybody liked,” Inniss said. The school district was alerted about Angel’s death Friday night, and on Monday, a specialized team of counsellors and staff members, led by associate superintendent Janet Grant, was brought in to support students and teachers at POWER. But now, the focus is on the students, Inniss said. “One of the things that they very much need is some sense that things are, or at least will be, normal and return to routines,” he said. “Those routines and rituals in the school are very important to provide stability in an uncertain world.” POLICE WARN COMMUNITY Angel’s death prompt-

ed police to issue a warning cautioning residents about a “lethal strain of drug circulating in New Westminster.”That warning remains in effect. The drugs were purchased in pill form from a street drug dealer, but it’s still too early to know what mixture of drugs the pills actually contained, said Sgt. Jeff Scott, New Westminster police spokesperson. “The pills were purchased as MDMA, but we are still confirming what in fact this was, which will be done after the toxicology reports are received,” he said. Police are urging anyone who may have purchased the same drugs or who may have experienced a similar reaction to come forward. “They are not in trouble, but we want to get this lethal substance off the streets,” Scott said. At this time, no arrests have been made in connection to the dangerous drugs. To donate to Angel’s memorial fund, go to www.gofund me.com and search “Angel Loyer-Lawrence.”

New Westminster RECORD THURSDAY June 1, 2017 9

City New West MLA pleased at prospect of NDP government Theresa McManus

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

Judy Darcy is “super stoked” about the prospect of being part of an NDP government that puts people first and ends the dysfunctional way business is done in Victoria. On Tuesday, 41 NDP MLAs and three Green party MLAs ratified an agree-

ment pledging to work together to support a stable New Democrat government that works for the people.The Liberals won 43 seats in the May 9 election, enough to form a minority government, but it may not be enough to gain the confidence of the house when Christy Clark recalls the legislature in June. “Sixty per cent of Brit-

ish Columbians voted for change and today we have the opportunity to create that change,” Darcy told the Record after signing the agreement. “We also have the opportunity to show that it’s possible for politics to work differently. I am over the moon about it.” Darcy said she is incredibly excited about the opportunity of working with

the Greens to “transform politics” in B.C. Although she loves the advocacy and community aspects of being New Westminster’s MLA, she said she isn’t a fan of “the confrontational stuff” in the house, where every idea from the Opposition is rejected, even if it’s one the government agrees with, and no private members’ bills get debated.

“I was overjoyed when I was elected four years ago. I had watched politics, of course. I had been involved in the NDP and had been in the gallery for question period. I wasn’t prepared for how dysfunctional it was,” she said. “For people who are elected to public office, they want to serve. My great hope is, and I think the commitment in

the document, the accord that’s been reached, is that we are going to move into that era of politics.” If the NDP forms government with the support of the Greens, Darcy is confident the deal will last until the next provincial election as the Greens have committed to supporting the NDP on confidence and supply motions.

See art, make art, share art in New West Julie MacLellan LIVELY CITY

jmaclellan@newwestrecord.ca

The Gallery at Queen’s Park played host to a popup exhibition by some local VIPs this past weekend. The gallery hosted an exhibition called Mother Earth, Father Sky, featuring the work of students from Queen’s Park Preschool. The three- to five-yearold artists had a chance to see their work on the gallery walls and to share it with their family and friends and the community at large.The exhibition ran May 27 and 28 – alongside all the other summer fun happening over the weekend in the city, including the Hyack International Parade and Uptown Street Fest. Congratulations to all the young artists (and to their grown-ups, too). A MUSICAL TRADITION A group of high school performers from around the region are bringing a Broadway favourite to the Anvil Centre stage this Friday. Langley-based U-Connect Performers is staging Fiddler on the Roof at the Anvil Centre Theatre on June 2.The group, which is directed by Langley school teachers, includes senior high school students from around the region. Fiddler, of course, is the classic story set in the small Jewish community of Anatevka in Czarist Russia, chronicling the life of the milkman Tevye while he attempts to instill traditional values in his five daughters in the face of the rapidly changing world around him. “Rich in historical and ethnic detail, Fiddler on the

Roof’s universal theme of tradition cuts across barriers of race, class, nationality and religion, leaving audiences crying tears of laughter, joy and sadness,” a press release says. Showtime is 7 p.m. Tickets are $12, available through www.ticketsnw.ca or 604-521-5050. CALLING ALL ARTISTS This one’s for all the artists out there.

Art explores perceptions of motherhood A new art exhibition at Plaskett Gallery is challenging our preconceived notions of mothers and women. La Mère/Idylle, by artist Suzanne Klassen, is on at the gallery from June 1 to 30. An opening reception is set for Saturday, June 3 from 2 to 4 p.m. “We often live in a world of carefully assembled identities and projections.We smile and tell certain stories in certain ways,” a press release notes. “Our interior realities can be more challenging (and hold so much more potential), should we have the opportunity to examine and give them weight and form.” La Mère/Idylle is a series of paintings that challenge society’s idyllic tropes of mothers, women and the environments we situation them in. “The challenge is direct in some paintings and lurking behind the mundane subject matter in others,” notes the release. “Mothers and children squinting in the light. Sons look over their shoulder or staring past us. Here is the situa-

The theatre company is presenting Charley’s Aunt, onstage June 1 to 25 at the Bernie Legge Theatre in Queen’s Park. The comedy by Brandon Thomas first hit the stage in 1892, when it ran for 1,466 performances. It tells the tale of Charley, whose rich aunt, Donna Lucia, is visiting from Brazil.

Community

Glenbrook explores its community’s heritage Cayley Dobie CLASS ACT

cdobie@newwestrecord.ca

Students, parents and teachers at École Glenbrook Middle School came together earlier this month to explore the community’s cultural heritage at an intergenerational potluck. The evening event was held on May 18. Families and staff brought traditional food and activities for everyone to try as a way of teaching others about the unique heritage of the students and staff who attend and work at the school. There was henna, a dye used to decorate women in Indian, Middle Eastern and African cultures, and aboriginal artifacts on display provided by Qayqayt First Nations Chief Rhonda Larabee and Bertha Lansdowne, the district’s aboriginal education coordinator. “It was a fun night and we had staff, students, families and community members in attendance.There was lots of wonderful food

and conversation,” Ronda Field, Glenbrook’s PAC cochair, wrote in an email. SIGN UP FOR BAND CAMP Have a budding musician in the family? Send them to the NWSS band camp this summer. The three-week program is open to middle and high school students of all skill levels.The camp runs from July 3 to 21 and concludes with a concert at Queen’s Park, and students can participate in as much or as little of the camp as they want (although the price of $165 per student remains the same). There are three classes offered: beginner band, for students with one year or less experience with their instrument (this one is for newbies); advanced band, for students with one year or more experience; and jazz band, for students with minimum one year experience playing their instrument. “The goal is to give students a place to make music and friends over the summer break, while giv-

ing middle school students a chance to make a connection to the high school – where they can meet some of the older students and teachers and make connections,” read a poster. Download the form at www.tinyurl.com/nwssband camp and return it to the office at New Westminster Secondary School with a cheque for $165 made out to NWSS music auxiliary. Mark attn: Steve Clements on the envelope. Any questions can be directed to Clements at sclements@ sd40.bc.ca.

LEARN ABOUT FIREFIGHTING Maybe music isn’t the right fit for your child, but what about firefighting? The City of New Westminster has extended its deadline for its annual youth firefighter program to Friday, June 2, which runs July 4 to 8 this year.The week-long course, open to students in Grade 10 to 12, is run by the Justice Institute of B.C., the New Westminster school district, New Westminster Fire Depart-

The program gives students a glimpse into what it’s like to be a new recruit attending the fire academy.There will be classroom work, workplace experience and live fire combat.They will also be trained on personal protective equipment, basic firefighting skills, first aid, fire prevention and auto

extraction. Students are expected to be on time and ready to go every day starting at 8:30 a.m.The course is run out of the Queensborough fire hall on Ewen Avenue. Interested students must: be genuinely interested in firefighting; currently in Grade 10, 11 or 12; in good standing with a C+ average; have a positive attendance record

ASK A PHYSIOTHERAPIST How can I have golfer’s elbow when I don’t golf?

Golfer’s elbow and tennis elbow are common names for tendinitis of the elbow. Although their names imply speciﬁc activities causing the injury, these injuries can be caused by many JIM GOVETT sport, recreational and work activities. People suffering from golfer’s/tennis elbow will experience pain in the inner/outer sides of the elbow. Pain is aggravated by use of that arm (gripping, lifting), and can result in weakness and loss of function. Your Physiotherapist will assess you to determine the underlying cause of your injury. Possible factors are muscle weakness/imbalance, joint stiffness, poor sport or work techniques, and inappropriate grip size. Your Physiotherapist will teach you stretching and strengthening exercises to speciﬁcally address the injured area and get you back to the activities you enjoy.

My goal is to help them reach their desired health objectives through the use of acupuncture and other techniques.” The life force that flows through everybody can be affected by numerous factors; diet, emotions and day-to-day living. This energy is our life force, its our spirit; it’s what makes our heart pound. And it’s that key ingredient to life that we lose when we die.” “Acupuncture is all about moving the energy, opening blockages and rebalancing the body to regain health and wellness. Everyday life can literally disrupt our energy flow; the stress of meeting deadlines, being stuck in traffic, a poor diet, and a lack of exercise can all have adverse effects on our energy flow and this will eventually effect our well-being. People in the workforce find themselves out of balance due to workplace expectations and environmental factors. Just think of the flow of energy like the circulation of blood. If you have a lack of energy flow to a part of the body, you’re going to have a reduction in the function of that part of the body; which can eventually lead to more imbalance and possibly chronic disease. Acupuncture puts that energy imbalance back into alignment.” This realignment can have powerful holistic effects; it can boost immune system function, eliminate pain and tension, plus so much more. Daily activities can be enjoyable again. The solution is to bring back balance in all aspects of life including exercise, healthy eating, work, fun, and rest. Acupuncture can help you in this process. My job is to restore balance - and then the body takes over and does the healing. The body is programmed for health and not sickness.

Q A

How long does a power of attorney (POA) last?

A POA normally takes effect when your attorney and you sign it. A so-called enduring POA continues even after you lose mental capacity. Otherwise, your STEPHEN GRAF POA ends. Your POA also ends when you revoke it, when it expires, or when your attorney loses mental capacity, dies, or quits. When you die, your POA ends and your will takes effect. If you lose mental capacity without making a POA, then to make ﬁnancial and legal decisions for you, someone must obtain a court order. Obtaining a court order can take months, and it costs much more than making a POA. This column is legal information, not legal advice. If you or someone you know would like to make a POA, please contact me.

Is it possible to get credit after filing a personal bankruptcy?

Absolutely! With correct rebuilding steps it is often achievable to be considered for new credit within two to three years. Some key tips: Review your credit reports. Check that BLAIR MANTIN information is accurate, and request Licensed Insolvency Trustee any errors be corrected. Make ALL payments on time, and stay well under the credit limit. Pick the “right card.” Whether it’s a secured card without annual fees or an unsecured card – make sure it’s what works for you. Cancelling and swapping credit cards can hurt your credit score. Filing a Bankruptcy (or Consumer Proposal) doesn’t prevent you obtaining future credit (including mortgages) – in fact, your credit may be later improved because the old debts are gone.

Can acupuncture and Chinese Medicine help me with my anxiety?

It can be very helpful with anxiety and protecting your immune system. Everything in Chinese Medicine is designed for prevention. The herbs, food therapy, cupping and DOREEN HILL acupuncture all have their place as treatment therapies. Instead of becoming sick, you can take steps to boost your immune system to fight off disease and stay healthy. That means you can also reduce symptoms of anxiety. There are some points that boost the immune system and others that help fight disease. Gentle massage on these two key points can help you stay healthy. Stomach 36 is four finger widths below the knee cap on the outside of your leg. Spleen 6 is four finger widths above the inside of your ankle bone. Give Doreen a call to learn more about acupuncture and self massage. (P) 778-231-2565 630-5th Street, New Westminster

Q A

My friends keep telling me to do these sets and those reps. To be honest, I don’t know the difference, can you help?

This is more common than you think. It can get confusing at times so I’ll try to simplify it. As a definition, a set is a completed group of reps and reps are how many times you complete LUKE RAMNATH the movement without rest. For example 3 sets of 8 reps. Now each set and rep range will target different results. Beginner 1-2 sets: 14-20 reps Strength training 3-5 sets: 1-6 reps Size/hypertrophy 2-4 sets: 8-14 reps Endurance/tone 2-4 sets: 14-20 reps You have to do this cautiously and ease into any training program, I’ve just focused on sets and reps, but there is also rest period, frequency of training and nutrition to be considered. I hope this helps. See you at the gym soon.

Q A

How do Your Clean Your Dentures?

Brushing your denture(s) with a denture brush will prevent your dentures from becoming permanently stained and also prevent scratching to the acrylic base because of the soft bristles. You must ensure that you moisten the BRIAN KO R.D., R.D.T brush and apply a non-abrasive soap or denture paste (regular toothpaste is too abrasive). Brush every surface, inside and out, scrubbing gently. After rinsing them thoroughly, soak your dentures in a water-based cleaning solution overnight and ensure that when you are not wearing your dentures that they are kept in a moist environment. You can also purchase a variety of over-thecounter denture cleanser products and use them as per the manufacturer’s instructions to help remove most stains. Do not use bleach on your dentures. More stubborn stains may require a professional cleaning by the denturist.

ASK A DENTIST

Q A

How do I best take care of my dental crowns and bridges?

In dentistry, crowns are usually used to cover or “cap” broken or weak teeth; whereas bridges are used to connect 2 or more teeth as a means of replacing one or more missing teeth in order to provide DR. AJAND NOBAHARI more chewing surface. Therefore what remains underneath a crown or a bridge, is still the natural teeth which need to be taken care. The best way to maintain healthy crowns and bridges, is to commit to excellent every day oral care at home as well as regular visits to your dentist and hygienist. At home, brushing twice daily with fluoridated tooth paste, focusing on the crown and bridge margins (where the cap meets the tooth surface) as well as using dental floss to clean in between the individual teeth is key. An important point is that floss threaders need to be used to aid in flossing underneath a bridge as the teeth are connected as one unit. In addition to home care, annual x-rays and regular dental visits can ensure that your teeth, including your crowns and bridges, are in good shape, and if any issues arise, they are caught early!”

A look back at life in 1867 Archie and Dale Miller

editorial@newwestrecord.ca

Looking back 150 years, the year Canada as a Confederation was formed, we will again peruse the local newspaper to see what is being said of the activities back east and on the local community front. There was a lot said about “Canada” in the news and there were frequent comments that said while we, the B.C. colonies, are not a part of Confederation in 1867, we must and will be there in time. One editorial noted: “…it will be our duty, to gain admission upon terms which fully recognize the value and importance of this territory to the Dominion, and which shall secure to us every fair and legitimate advantage.We must not ‘throw ourselves away’ while smarting under the effects of a temporary depression.” In the non-political local news, we find items of interest including a fascinating story of Mr. F Grelley, the proprietor of the Colonial Hotel, a very prominent hotel and dining room on Columbia Street. Grelley had recently sailed off on a trip to France, his place of birth and he had been away for about 16 years. He obviously would have had plans to see many sights and people and to reacquaint himself with his homeland.The short item tells us his plans included attending the “universal exposition” in Paris.The expectations were he would return in about six months and the paper wished him a “bon voyage.” Those citizens who might have been interested in having photographs taken of

their family were informed a photographer of “high artistic reputation” was in town.There were a number of photographers at this time who travelled around with their equipment, set up shop for a short time, catered to the town’s photography needs, and moved on. There were always, in this early community, lots of social activities that saw groups get together to take in a particular occasion or plan an event. Apparently, the teachers and scholars of the “Sabbath Schools” of

the Methodist Church and the Presbyterian Church, got together for a picnic to be held on the cricket ground which was, in 1867, on the north-east edge of town where Victoria Hill is today. We can gather from the short account in the paper that all went well until “the proceedings were brought to a sudden and premature conclusion by a thunder storm.” Another look back to New Westminster in 1867, 150 years ago.

Community New leader for foundation Theresa McManus

AROUND TOWN

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

It’s official: Jason Lesage is the new executive director of the Queen’s Park Healthcare Foundation. The foundation’s directors appointed the New West resident as the new executive director at a recent board meeting. “I’m incredibly honoured to be working here,” he said in a press release. “The Queen’s Park Care Centre and William Rudd House play a vital role in the health care of New Westminster and communities beyond, and my priority is to raise the necessary funds that will make life more comfortable for the residents and patients I serve.” Queen’s Park Care Centre opened in 1977 to provide care to seniors needing continuous nursing support. It has since evolved into a facility that also provides general rehabilitation care for patients of various ages.William Rudd House, which opened at the site at 315 McBride Blvd. in 1983, provides a home-like environment for physically disabled younger adults. “I also want to raise the profile of seniors’ care because it’s not talked about enough,” Lesage said. “As the population ages, communities will need to grapple with the issues related to caring for our seniors, and this is especially true in New Westminster.” The Queen’s Park Healthcare Foundation is a registered charity that raises funds for equipment, facility enhancements and activity programing at the two facilities. “We’re very pleased to have Jason come on board,” Harry Bloy, chair of the Queen’s Park Healthcare Foundation, said in a press release. “Jason served on our board for a year before taking the helm on a temporary, part-time basis after the previous executive director left last August. He was doing a great job, so the

board decided to offer him the position as full-time. Jason has been involved in the community for several years, so he knows the landscape quite well in New Westminster. And with his professional background in communications, the board is looking forward to working with him to raise our profile.” YOUNG GUNS JOIN ANVIL BATTERY One of the Royal City’s oldest traditions has some new faces among its ranks. When the Ancient and Honourable Hyack Anvil Battery sounded its annual salute to Queen Victoria and the monarchy on Victoria Day, it had three new members in its ranks: Colin Jones, Warren Goss and Rob McCulloch. Here’s a who’s who of the current anvil battery members: Chris Dupuis (swabber off); Russ Cooper (powder monkey); Kevin Kirkland (blower up), Larry Larkin (toucher off); Mark Stevens and McCulloch (right-hand hoisters); Jones and Goss (left-hand hoisters); Brent McInnes (timer); Laurie McInnes (chalker up); Jerry Dobrovolny (medical officer); Archie Miller (historian and MC); Bill Radbourne (adjutant); Fred Sparkes (captain); and Bert Houston (honorary member). “As far as we can tell at this point, the first formal

21-shot anvil salute to the Queen was in 1887 when Victoria refused permission for New Westminster to fire a salute with our own cannons for Queen Victoria's jubilee that year.There were other shorter, more informal anvil salutes for various reasons well before that, including to welcome ships or dignitaries like the governor, and even for the Queen. But the full formal salute as we do it today began in 1887 as far as we know,” Miller said in an email to the Record. “It has happened every year since then with the exception of 1901 – the year Queen Victoria died. It was picked up again the following year for King Edward VII and has continued without interruption since then.” SAVE THE DATE: JUNE 24 The New Westminster Legion Branch 2 is inviting community members to attend a Legion Week event on Saturday, June 24, starting at 1 p.m. in front of the Legion at 631 Sixth St. Attendees will enjoy free barbecued hamburgers and hotdogs, a bake sale, carnival-style games, and facepainting and balloons for the kids.

New West shines in season opener Big-12 With win over Nanaimo out of the way, squad prepares to face powerful Shamrocks Dan Olson

dolson@newwestrecord.ca

Now that’s how you do a season opener. The NewWestminster Salmonbellies got pushed a little but pushed back more to kick off the 2017 Western Lacrosse Association season with a 12-7 victory over the Nanaimo Timbermen last week. Scoring in two-goal streaks, the ‘Bellies never trailed, taking a 4-1 lead into the second period and increased its lead to five goals with 20 minutes to play. It was a result of the team’s fast-moving transition attack that kept the ball heading down floor, and an effort that brought a smile to coach Steve Goodwin’s face. “It felt pretty good, but as I tell the guys it was just one game and you can’t get too up, can’t get too down after that,” said Goodwin. “We’re in the same boat as a number of teams who are waiting for players yet to arrive, but I thought we really moved the ball well and set the pace.” Up 4-1, Logan Schuss tallied 33 seconds into the middle frame and was followed 31 seconds later by newcomer Sean Tyrell before Nanaimo replied with two of their own. New West would douse any rally attempt by the visitors with five straight markers, including three to start the third period, and nev-

er looked back. With offence relying so much on chemistry and synchronicity, Goodwin was very pleased with how smoothly the players – some who had few if any practices together since the end of the NLL regular season – seemed to step up with the quick-pass game plan. “We had over 60 shots and had a lot of opportunities to score more,” said Goodwin. “The only thing stopping it from being a lot more was Nanaimo’s goalie (Peter Dubenski). He was outstanding.” Schuss picked up where he left off from the National Lacrosse League season, where he registered a goal-a-game with the Vancouver Stealth. The 26-year-old lefthander scored three times and set up four others, while Mitch Jones also picked up a hat trick. Anthony Malcom scored twice and assisted on three more, while Daniel McQuade, returning to the New West lineup after a twoyear absence, also tallied twice. “(Schuss) is a leader on our offence and we are going to expect big games like this from him all season,” said Goodwin. “He’s kind of the straw that stirs the drink, offensively… I’ve been around (Malcom) his whole life and know what he’s capable of doing. He has so much potential and can do so many things others

can’t, so my expectations are he’s going to build on this and get better and better.” Rounding out the offence were Mark Negrin and Tyrell. Tye Belanger was also making his debut in the red, white and blue, and he was sharp in stopping 32 shots. Now the challenge is to repeat that feat against the high-flying Victoria Shamrocks tonight (Thursday, 7:30 p.m. at Queen’s

Our best strategy is to stay with our game plan and make (the opposition) run. Park Arena). Victoria is already 2-0 on the year after beating Langley (10-9) and Burnaby (11-6). Considering how they continue to bring eastern players west and are perennial Mann Cup challengers, Goodwin feels it’s a matchup that is guaranteed to be intense. “I think every game with Victoria becomes a physical game, but we can play it that way, too,” said the coach. “Our best strategy is to stay with our game plan and make them run. … We’re not going to worry too much about

changing our game for an opponent, but we want to force them to run with us.” Without tipping his hand, Goodwin noted that with two strong netminders in Alex Buque and Belanger – both coming off solid seasons in the NLL – he wants to give guys a chance to get in the game sooner than later. “We have to extremely good goaltenders, but I’m not going to forecast who’s going (to play),” he said. “I like to give each some playing time to start the year and let them get onto a roll.” The ‘Bellies will have recently signed Zack Herreweyers in the lineup, fresh off a plane from Ontario. The London, Ont. native just wrapped up his senior year at Loyola University, where he tallied 103 goals over 42 games, and is coming off a rookie season with the NLL’s Colorado Mammoth. Without any practice time with his new teammates, the lefthanded Herreweyers will roll right into the lineup, with the coach expecting a transition period for the sixfoot-one offensive player. “It can be tough (coming in cold) but he did play with the (NLL) Mammoth and knows a few of the guys,” said Goodwin. After tonight’s game against Victoria, New West ventures to Coquitlam for a game Saturday night (7 p.m. faceoff).

honours Schultz

In the preliminary build-up for the NCAA national championships, New Westminster’s Nina Schultz picked up another honour for her freshman achievements at Kansas State. The 18-year-old track and field star was voted the Big 12’s Outstanding Freshman of theYear, after helping lead the KSU Wildcats to its first conference title since 2002. The New West Spartans track team member put an exclamation mark to her season at the Big 12 championships last month, establishing a new individual record in women’s high jump with a personal-best clearance of 1.82 metres. She also collected a PB in javelin (47.67m), while securing strong results in long jump, 100m hurdles and 4x400m relay as the high point scorer of the meet. Personal bests were a theme for the freshman, having broken a number of marks more than once during her first season on the NCAA circuit. Earlier in the year, she set a new Canadian under-20 national standard and won her first collegiate heptathlon with a score of 6,021 points – the fourth-best total in team history. It earned her the Big12 Athlete of the Week award. Schultz became the first KS athlete to qualify for the national championships as a frontrunner in the heptathlon. She is currently ranked fourth in the NCAA, with the nationals going next week in Oregon.

Bigger, faster a cue for NW track Hyacks sending 20 athletes to the B.C. track and field championships Dan Olson

dolson@newwestrecord.ca

There is strength in numbers – and New Westminster Secondary track and field coach Bryan MacMaster can point to that as his team prepares for this weekend’s B.C. High School Track and Field championships in Langley. New West is sending a fleet of 20 athletes, including 10 seniors, to the

spotlight meet. Coming off a strong showing at last week’s regionals, he envisions plenty of good things despite the wet weather forecast. “I think we could see some medals, and I want to see kids having a good time,” said McMaster. “It would be great to get see kids make personal bests and just go up against the best competition.” Among the team’s many standouts

are a handful who could enjoy a breakthrough, including Grade 12s Emily Chilton, in the women’s 400-metre race, and Ben Tjernagel, in the 100, 200 and 4x100m relay. “(Tjernagel) has worked hard and I expect him to do well, although he wasn’t happy with his time at (regionals),” McMaster said. Chilton, who topped the regional 400m event with a time of 1:01.34, has twice been the final cut before the provincial finals. Some of the other potential medal threats are Gr. 10 Noah Clarke, in the 800m, Gr. 11 Grace Fetherstonhaugh, in three separate distance events, pole vaulter Finnley Cookson and Matthew Dheilly-Sturrock, who will be throwing shotput, discus and hammerthrow. Fetherstonhaugh won the regional 1500m, 3000m and steeplechase events last week in convincing fashion, with the nearest rival in any race 18 seconds back. A year ago, she won the provincial junior leg of the steeplechase and 3000m. MacMaster said its a good year for the school, track-wise, no matter the medal count. “Last year we took 15, and this kind of success filters down the line.”

Tou r n a me nt The Royal City Rotary Club and the Rotary Club of New Westminster invite you to participate in the 22nd Annual Pot of Gold Charity Golf Tournament on July 11th at Mayfair Lakes Golf Club. Over the past 21 years, this event has raised over $456,000 for local charities. Over $33,000 was raised from last year’s tournament alone. Some of the beneficiaries in our community in the past have included Royal Columbian Hospital Foundation, Queen’s Park Healthcare Foundation, St Mary’s Health Foundation, Tim Hortons Children’s Foundation, West Coast Kids’ Charity and Pathfinder Youth Centre Society, among others. The Rotary Clubs’ principal focus has been on funding programs for youth in New Westminster, and we will continue to promote them. Again this year, the two local Rotary Clubs will also donate a portion of the net proceeds to Salvation Army (New Westminster) and the Lower Mainland Purpose Society (an alternate education facility) to further their valuable work with youth facing their own challenges in the community. We believe we need to invest in our youth, since they are our future. Past tournaments have been sold out. We hope to repeat hat success this year.
