Poppies take root Pulling together yarn and knitters to create a work to remember

By Theresa McManus

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

The Poppy Project is taking root in the Royal City.

Last fall, a group of local knitters spearheaded a community art project that involves knitting or crocheting poppies to create a large blanket that could be displayed in New West for Remembrance Day. “We have got 550 poppies already, so we have achieved our goal for this year,” said Reena Meijer-Drees, who helped organize the project. “That means we have enough to make a blanket that will cover an army cot.”

The Museum of the Royal Westminster Regiment has agreed to provide the group Continued on page 10

Will May Day make it to its 150th?

The school board is opening up a public conversation on the celebration’s future in NewWestminster Will May Day survive until its 150th anniversary in 2020? And if it survives, who will organize it and how will it look?

On Tuesday, the New Westmin-

ster board of education approved a motion to get public input on a report from its May Day task force.The board also asked staff to determine if any community organizations are interested in assuming the responsibility for the May Day ceremony in Queen’s Park

and/or the selection of the Royal Suite.The task force, established in 2015 to review the nature and scope of the school district’s participation in the annual May Day celebration, submitted three recommendations to the board of education:

! For 2018 and 2019 May Day, celebrations be school-based celebrations and the school district support the 150th anniversary of May Day in 2020. ! The district should discontinue the practice of selecting a Royal Suite.The board should support

transferring responsibility for the Royal Suite to a community organization. ! The board should endeavour to transfer responsibility for organizing the May Day celebration in Queen’s Park outside of school Continued on page 6

Six-storey plan for eatery site

By Theresa McManus

HERITAGE LOST: New Westminster city council has supported a recommendation to remove the Gas Works building from the city’s heritage register. The move comes after a portion of the building’s roof collapsed, leaving the building structurally unsound and in need of demolition. PHOTO RECORD FILES

Gasworks building would cost too much to save Every single brick from the site is too contaminated to save; bricks would have to be individually removed and decontaminated

By Theresa McManus

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

Bricks from the B.C. Gasworks building are so contaminated they can’t be saved without big bucks.

Jackie Teed, the city’s acting director of development services, said the building’s bricks are highly contaminated.

“They would each have to be individually decontaminated. But first they would need to be removed by hand from the building, which is extremely dangerous because of the condition it is in.There would be life-safety issues to getting those out of there,” she said.

“Between all of that, the cost would be so high.”

The province, which owns the building at 231 12th St., has asked the city to process the demolition permit for the site without requiring the bricks to be salvaged.The site was originally used as a coal-gasification plant but was later used as a foundry, a paint manufacturing facility and a sash

and door manufacturing operation.

Teed said the province will scan the building using a drone so no one has to go onto the site to do the work.

The work is being done to ensure there’s a complete historic record of the building that’s deemed to have heritage significance.

A portion of the 1886 building’s roof caved in in March 2016.

On Oct. 16, council supported a recommendation to remove the Gas Works building from the city’s heritage register and to direct staff to continue working with the province to document the building, to process the permits required to demolish the building and remove all materials from the site.

Coun. Jaimie McEvoy included the building on a list of the Top 10 endangered sites that he wrote for the New Westminster Heritage Preservation Society in 2007. He voted against the recommendation.

“It’s a shame it got to

where it was at, and it’s a shame that the provincial government never really moved on doing anything

It’s a shame it got to where it was at, and it’s a shame that the provincial government never really moved on doing anything.

with it. It’s a shame what happened with the storm, but nobody can change the levels of pollution that were identified. I think it’s really unfortunate,” he said. “It’s important to preserve working class and industrial heritage, and it’s difficult to do that because it’s expensive.”

McEvoy included the New Westminster Gas Company building on the list because of “its continued neglect” but also because of its great heritage value and potential for restoration.The building was designed by architect George W. Grant, who also designed Holy Trinity Cathedral.

“A 1997 report commissioned by city council rated the building as having fair to high integrity. An estimate of less than $500,000 was provided for the restoration of the site, including seismic upgrading and renovations to allow for community use,” he wrote in 2007.

“The building is one of only two old coal gasification sites left in the province.

The building and its site have twice been offered to the city by the province for one dollar, essentially a gift to the city. Concern about liability for pollution on the site, which does not seem to have been assessed, caused the city to turn down the offer.”

A six-storey apartment building is being proposed on the former home of La Rustica and La Spaghetteria restaurants.

Council has received a preliminary report regarding an updated application for the sites at 228 and 232 Sixth St., where a 53unit, six-storey wood-frame apartment building with a three-level underground parkade is being proposed.

Council has directed staff to process the rezoning and development permit applications.

The rezoning application would see the site’s zoning changed from community commercial districts – highrise to a new comprehensive development district, states a staff report.

“Staff has been processing an application on this site for the past couple of years,” said the report. “The project has not been able to progress due to site constraints and building proximity issues which staff had been working closely to resolve with the previous applicants.”

The site, which is located near other multi-family residential buildings, was sold in April 2016.The new owner has hired Denis Turco Architects to design the proposed building.

“While there are a number of items that will still need to be addressed with the project design, it is recommended that this proposal proceed to the public consultation stage and for staff to continue working with the applicants in regards to refining the project design, which will also include a followup presentation to the New Westminster deign panel,” said the report.

A staff report notes that the two homes on the site were built in 1919 but were modified through the years to be converted into restaurants so their historical value has “been significantly” diminished.

Because the proposed development would provide family-friendly housing that’s close to transit and the homes heritage value has decreased, staff don’t consider demolition of the homes to be a concern.

Queensborough in the dark after fire

By Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@newwestrecord.ca

It could be days until the Queensborough Bridge is fully reopened after an electrical fire under the span Wednesday morning.

The blaze, sparked by the failure of a City of New Westminster-owned high voltage cable running under the bridge deck, was reported at about 1 a.m. after someone noticed smoke coming out of an access cover on the crossing.

The fire put itself out, city officials said, but not before causing significant damage to the power line, knocking out power to Queensborough and parts of the West End and necessitating the closure of Queensborough schools.

The bridge was closed in both directions until Ministry of Transportation engineers determined the span hadn’t sustained any struc-

tural damage. On Wednesday afternoon both northbound lanes were open and one southbound lane was open.

But the bridge won’t be fully opened until the electrical cables are fixed.

“We anticipate some of the space on the bridge is going to be needed to conduct the repair work to the power lines under the bridge,” Mayor Jonathan Cote said.

Restoring power to Queensborough was also expected to take until midnight Wednesday.

Meanwhile, Starlight Casino in Queensborough announced it would open its buffet free of charge to affected residents Wednesday evening. And the Sikh Temple on Wood Street was also offering free meals to residents left without power.

Public input sought on May Day Continued from page 1 hours to a community organization that could then decide how best to continue the tradition. In this way, for example, those community members who are particularly keen to keep alive the institutions of the May Queen and Royal Suite could formulate their own selection methods, costume requirements and ceremonial duties.

“There are considerable hurdles to be faced if the collective celebration of May Day with the dancing ceremony in Queen’s Park is to continue as a district-organized event,” said the report. “There seems to be little pedagogical or staff support for the amount of time taken out of the teaching schedule to make this event happen.

The justification for taking the Grade 2 and 5 classes out school that day seems to be merely to act as an audience.There is little engagement amongst student spectators with the ceremonies themselves. Apart from those parents who attend to watch their children dance around the poles, there seems to be little other public engagement with the event itself, even though it has historically been linked to the local community spring festival.”

The task force surveyed 203 school district employees on questions such as: experiences with May Day; instructional time needed for dance preparations; student spectator and community engagement with the event; relevance to the redesigned education curriculum; alignment with district’s values of inclusion and diversity; use of resources devoted to the ceremony; merits of school-based May Day events; importance of the annual event for the district; and thoughts on whether May Day should be a community-run event.

The report stated there is “little general support” amongst district staff for May Day and “meagre support” for the Royal Suite.

At Tuesday’s board meeting, several community members spoke about the need to preserve May Day. Former school trustee Brent Atkinson said the survey should have been put out to

the community, not just school district staff.

“I understand that it is taxing to staff, I understand that there is a cost to the district and I understand, since I have been involved in it half the time it’s been running almost and since I was a trustee for 32 years, this issue has been discussed on previous occasions,” he said. “The community has always responded positively to the school district maintaining the tradition of May Day.” David Brett, president of the Hyack Festival Association, disagrees with suggestions that May Day’s cultural display is contrary to the goals of inclusion and diversity, as seemingly disparate stories can be told at the same time.

The report stated there is “little general support” amongst district staff for May Day and “meagre support” for the Royal Suite

“The concept of having a May Queen may have meant something in ancient times, but it means something different now.The idea of re-enacting things that are old and ancient is something that is a form of storytelling,” he said. “New Westminster has a very unique story in the context of the formation of Canada.”

Former school trustee Lisa Graham urged the board to “try and not kill” May Day in New Westminster.

“It is hard to believe that this district continues to try and divest itself from this wonderful tradition. It makes no sense why someone would repeatedly try to dismantle something so positive. I am hoping that through consultation … you will hear that, if you don’t already know, the school district is the best place from which to manage the celebration.”

FRESH CHOICES

Did you know?

In terms of public consultation, the school district typically posts reports on its website and circulates the reports to stakeholders.

Kelly Slade-Kerr, chair of the board of education, told May Day supporters who attended Tuesday’s meeting that “nothing has been decided” and the process now moves on to consultation. She said that consultation will allow trustees to properly consider the task force’s recommendation that responsibility for organizing May Day be transferred to another organization.

“Trustees might appreciate in advance some information about whether there are any organizations that might be interested,” she said. “It asks if there are any community organizations that might be interested.That provides the board with information when assessing whether or not we want to transfer it to other community organizations.”

Trustee Michael Ewen is looking forward to hearing what the community has to say about the issue.

“Timing is going to be an issue because we don’t have in place right now the people to actually run the May Day process. Many of them have retired, many of them have stepped down.That part is going to be difficult,” he said. “If we decided against this process, then the district is going to have to do something different to get a process going because the process that is happening now, I don’t think is viable.”

Trustee Jonina Campbell would like the consultation process to find a way to make May Day a win-win for schools, the community and kids. She wants to ensure that kids are involved in the consultation process, noting they have different views than adults.

“I watched my children – their response to May Day is very different than what my initial buy-in to May Day was,” she said. “Going through it with my daughters was very eye-opening, what it means to them.They don’t question it like we are all looking at it.

To them, it’s just a big part of their school experience, a big part of being in New Westminster.”

! New Westminster celebrated its first May Day in 1870, making it the longest-running celebration of its type in the British Commonwealth. A May Queen has been crowned annually for 147 years. ! Civic leaders launched May Day in 1880 as a way of lifting the community’s spirits after its loss of its capital city status and a decline in the population. It symbolized renewal and rebirth. ! The May Day celebrations include folk dances by Grade 3 students and maypole dances by Grade 4 students from across the school district, a parade into the stadium by the Royal Suite and performances or demonstrations by groups like the high school’s band or cheer team or police dogs. Some aspects of May Day, such as relay races between students from the various schools, lasted for many years before being discontinued, while others, like the Fat Man Race held in 1911, lasted only one year. ! Dances were added to May Day in 1913, when the governing body of the day decided B.C. kids should learn folk dances. ! The selection of a May Queen has varied through the years, with the mayor and men in the community once selecting the May Queen and seeking her father’s permission. In modern times, students at each of the city’s elementary schools have voted for their school’s May Queen representative (and, more recently, a royal knight), with the schools’ positions in the Royal Suite selected in a random vote held at city hall.

City shuts down pot dispensary on 20th

By Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@newwestrecord.ca

Customers are concerned about the closure of a newly opened marijuana dispensary in New Westminster this week.

The Natural Green Remedies Shop opened its doors at 808 20th Street sometime before Oct. 17.

This week, New West police came to shut it down.

Customer Jeremy Andrews, who struggles with anxiety and depression but doesn’t like taking pharmaceuticals, told the Record he was happy a shop had opened in the neighbourhood, saving him and others a trip to Vancouver.

“No matter where you go in the Lower Mainland, there is a need for it,” he said. “A lot of people don’t like taking the narcotics that doctors prescribe. It’s another option.”

And with changes coming to Canada’s cannabis laws, Andrews is surprised at the city’s hardline approach.

“With it possibly be-

ing legalized next year, you would think the local police department would be a little bit more lenient on it, considering it’s medicine,” he said.

New West’s licensing manager, however, said marijuana dispensaries are still not permitted to operate in the city at this time.

“The city is aware the issue of marijuana dispensaries has been discussed in other jurisdictions, and the City of New Westminster has been consistent in our approach,” wrote Kim Deighton in an email.

“While the federal government has released information regarding a proposed Cannabis Act targeted for enactment in July 2018, details about the new system and, specifically, how the retail aspect will be implemented in each province have yet to be determined.”

Deighton said the city became aware of the Natural Green Remedies Shop on Oct. 17, and fire, building and bylaw officials attended the shop on Oct. 19

to conduct an inspection.

Officials then advised the proprietors they were in violation of city bylaws, including but not limited to operating without a business licence and operating contrary to zoning.

“Operators were advised they must cease business operations immediately,” Deighton said. “(City) staff continued to attend daily and issue tickets for bylaw violations. Police were also advised.”

Deighton said it was her understanding police attended the dispensary on Tuesday, but the New Westminster Police Department did not return calls by press time to confirm whether any arrests had been made.

While the city waits for further announcements and information on the new cannabis laws from the feds, Deighton said city staff will present council with a report about “various options and implications with respect to land use and planning.”

Opinion OUR VIEW

Taking a closer look at ‘our’ history

Last week the Vancouver school district renamed Sir William Macdonald Elementary to Xpey’ Elementary. (Xpey’ means “cedar” in a Musqueam dialect.)

The renaming is part of a move to expunge tributes to colonial settlers and oppressors.

A couple of months ago, The Elementary Teachers Federation of Ontario passed a motion calling on local school boards to change the name of schools

named after Sir John A. Macdonald.They cite Macdonald’s “central role as the architect of genocide against Indigenous peoples … and the ways in which his namesake buildings can contribute to an unsafe space to learn and to work.”

They have a good point.

Macdonald, like many of the white men who held power in the early years of Canadian history, did so by either enforcing or riding on the coattails of racism,

sexism, and pretty much every kind of lever of oppression available in their society at that time.

Some of them might have had fleeting thoughts that what they were doing was less than fair, but most seemed to believe they were doing God’s work and “civilizing” those who needed their guidance. And no wonder, folks like Sir John A. Macdonald had themselves been raised in societies which believed that

colonizing (stealing) other countries was the right and Christian thing to do.

We haven’t heard calls to change New Westminster’s Richard McBride school’s name – yet, but we wouldn’t be surprised if it happens.

McBride was Conservative premier of British Columbia in 1914 when the Komagata Maru, a Japanese steamship, arrived in Vancouver.The ship had 376 passengers on board,

most of whom were Sikh migrants from what was then British India.

McBride refused to have the boat stay in port and said, “To admit Orientals in large numbers would mean the end, the extinction of the white people. And we always have in mind the necessity of keeping this a white man’s country.”

And then there’s May Day.To be sure, it harkens from a colonial era that didn’t recognize Indigenous

people’s rights, women’s rights and whole lot of other rights that we have come to cherish in this modern age.

The powers that be in this city have tip-toed around the origins of May Day for decades, but with the latest look at the celebration (see story page 1), we expect the conversation will be rekindled with vigour.

And that’s a very good thing.

MY VIEW KEITH BALDREY

B.C., Alberta in a showdown Are B.C. and Alberta on a collision course of potentially mammoth proportions?

It certainly seems so if Jason Kenney wins the leadership of the United Conservative Party in Alberta this week. Kenney, a former federal cabinet minister in the Harper government, is the odds-on favourite to win, and his party seems positioned to best Premier Rachel Notley’s NDP when the next Alberta election is held in May, 2019.

The merger of the two right-wing parties in Alberta means there is no longer a “split” on the right. Such a split paved the way for an NDP win in 2015 and its absence makes the NDP’s re-election improbable.

If Kenney does end up winning on both counts, the stage could be set for a potentially nasty and divisive fight pitting Alberta against those perceived as standing in the way of the province’s interests.

To Kenney, the main enemies will be Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, B.C. Premier John Horgan andVancouver Mayor Gregor Robertson (if he is still mayor in 2019).

Kenney has been making speeches that aggressively call out those who want to block Alberta’s attempts to export oil from its tar sands.

Topping that list is the B.C. NDP government, which is trying to stop the expansion of the Kinder Morgan pipeline that currently takes Alberta’s bitumen to tidewater.

Last week, Kenney gave a speech warning that if the B.C. government were to take “dilatory mea-

sures” in blocking the pipeline – which he equates with harming the economic union of the country – there would be “consequences.”

“If B.C. wants to move their gas through Alberta to U.S. markets, perhaps we should be tolling that gas,” he told a cheering crowd, which roared in approval when he talked of “turning off the taps” when it came to stopping the shipment of all Alberta oil to other provinces. “Maybe one morning people inVancouver wake up and they see it costs five bucks a litre to buy their oil, they’ll realize that their cars and trucks and economy are not fuelled by pixie dust, but

by Alberta oil.”

He also took a swipe at Robertson, who wants to makeVancouver a “carbonfree city” by the year 2040.

“I’m prepared to give him a carbon-freeVancouver by 2020 if they stop that pipeline,” he promised.

Kenney also wants to dismantle or at least neuter the National Energy Board, but much of his anger seems aimed directly at the B.C. NDP government. And his anger seems widely shared by fellow Albertans.

There has even been talk of employing such measures as implementing “rat inspection stations” at all border crossings, which could adversely affect the considerable amount of commercial vehicle traffic that flows daily from B.C. to Alberta.

Kenney will likely become party leader by Saturday. If he does indeed win, hang on for a wild ride.

Keith Baldrey is chief political reporter for Global B.C.

Drugs lead to murder arrest

Police searching a New West home for drugs found a suspected killer instead. New Westminster police searched a residence in the 1300 block of Cariboo Street in March.

After finding cocaine, they arrested a 24-year-old man and charged him with possession for the purpose of trafficking.When officers checked his fingerprints, though, they discovered he was using stolen identification, and was actually wanted for second-degree murder in Quebec in connection with a motorcycle-gang killing that saw a rival drug dealer beaten up and set on fire with gasoline.

New Westminster RECORD THURSDAY October 26, 2017 9

Letters Parents, get a grip – you are failing your kids Dear Editor: I have lived across the (narrow, residential) street from a New Westminster public elementary school for 30 years. These past few years have seen a marked shift in social norms around the operation of the school, particularly on behalf of parents.

Every day now, at drop-off and pickup times, dozens of parents jockey up and down the street in their vehicles as they ferry their perfectly healthy children to and from the school’s front door. It is, to put it mildly, a recklessly dangerous and wilfully selfish vehicular rodeo of adults who clearly have no respect for civic rules, much less the safety of young children. They speed, honk, gun their engines, drive over curbs, back up onto the school lawns, park in handicapped spots and no parking zones, and line up down the block, idling, like so many limos picking up baby celebrities.

One mother routinely stops her van in the middle of the street, turns it off and escorts her daughter — who is clearly old enough to walk on her own — to her classroom, thereby blocking traffic both ways. It is a minor miracle that no one has been hurt, although recently a bus did back into a resident’s car. Attempt to educate them and you can expect blank stares, flipped middle fingers and cursing.

I am sure this scenario plays out all over the city. Since when do children need to be escorted

to school? Why don’t parents talk to their children about street safety, and drop them off at the end of the street and let them walk the 200 yards across the playground to their class?

Watch if you have to, but set them free. Why do so many parents blithely ignore the signs and rules of the road while behind the wheel, thus teaching their offspring that rules only apply to others?

And when did parenting become an exercise in sheltering human snowflakes, instead of preparing the next generation to become independent, courteous, civic-minded young adults.

It’s also puzzling why so many parents routinely drop their children off after the 9 a.m. bell.

Here’s a tip: get up earlier so that you’re not late.

And teach your children that school matters, that disruptions to others are not cool, and that lateness is an unseemly, self-absorbed, easily avoided habit.

And the litter. Oh, the litter. Not needles and drug paraphernalia, mind you, but Slurpee cups and potato chip bags and candy bar wrappers.

It’s everywhere around the school, dropped by the children of fast food nation who clearly have not been taught that littering is not only ignorant and illegal but socially unacceptable.

Every day, dozens of children, staffers and parents walk by the trash on the ground and ignore it, as if keeping their immediate environment clean is someone else’s responsibility.

Parents, get a grip. You are failing your kids.

Community ‘We have enough now to make a beautiful display’ Continued from page 1 with a cot, bits of uniform and a footlocker for its display. It will be on view in the River Market from Monday, Nov 5 until Friday, Nov. 10 (food court area) and at Royal City Centre from Saturday, Nov. 11 until Monday, Nov. 13.

“We will be continuing to collect poppies from now until whenever and make the blanket bigger. Maybe next year we will have enough for two blankets.The whole thing will just grow – that’s the idea,” Meijer-Drees said. “But we have enough now to make a beautiful display.”

Some local knitters came up with the idea of making poppies for a blanket after learning about a similar project in Australia, where knitters made a carpet made up of hundreds of thousands of handmade poppies.

Launched last fall in New Westminster, the Poppy Project has garnered support from folks around the Lower Mainland.

“It’s slowly catching on.We are now getting quite a bit of interest. We have shopped

it around the Lower Mainland with various knitting groups and people are sending stuff in,” said Meijer-Drees. “It is catching on. Once it gets displayed, then it will catch on more and will become more and more popular.”

For 2017, the project will result in a blanket that’s big enough to cover an army cot, but its purpose and size can change over time.

“The idea is to grow it and let it be a living piece that people add to,” said MeijerDrees. “What we are hoping as well is when people donate the poppies they can go to a website and type in a dedication to whatever they are making.We collect those dedications and publish them somewhere, either on a website or in a book or something.”

Later this month, a few volunteers will attach the handmade poppies onto the blanket in preparation for the Remembrance Day display.

For more information or instructions on how to make poppies, visit www.thepoppy project.ca.

Lauro tells the stories of a group of femaleVietnam War veterans.

“It focuses on women in a context, the military, that’s traditionally dominated by men,” Legere notes. “We all know the narratives of the war. …We wanted people to be able to see this was not a male-specific issue.”

Aside from Legere and one male actor – who plays all the supporting male parts – all actors and crew are female.

It’s important to Legere to keep it that way.

“Growing up queer, I’ve always had camaraderie with women,” he says. In part, he says, that’s based on shared experiences and understanding of the world. “I

know what it’s like to fear for my safety in a room full of men.”

Legere hates the fact that so many women he knows have stories of being groped by a customer or harassed by an employer.

“Being talked about as if it was just a normal part of the day … that just frustrates me so much,” he says, adding he gets angry when he hears men downplay those stories. “For me, it’s the opportunity to become a leader for men; to recognize this, to acknowledge this.”

Another key component of their mission is what Cyr terms “no whitewashing” – that is, to ensure that performers of colour are always included.

“We’ve made a commitment to cast whoever works,” Cyr says. “We don’t want to have an all-white cast, ever.”

Legere notes that the whiteness and maleness of the theatre world is starting to change inVancouver – citing Arts Club Theatre’s recent hiring of Ashlie Corcoran as artistic director, and Bard on the Beach’s commitment to ethnically diverse casting. He’s hoping that the trickle-down effect will be felt with smaller companies as well, and he notes that everyone he’s told about his own project has embraced the idea enthusiastically.

Not that he’s suggesting it’s easy.

Being a small, independent company means both Legere and Cyr have innumerable tasks to carry out to bring the show to fruition – Cyr jokes that they should each get five separate hats that they can put on and take off depending which job they’re going at any given moment.

Legere directs and produces, while Cyr is performing, producing and serving as assistant director.

It means it’s a constant challenge to balance the administrative necessities – like marketing and selling tickets so that the show can earn money – with the creative aspects of producing good theatre.

A spotlight on old age Julie MacLellan LIVELY CITY

jmaclellan@newwestrecord.ca

An acclaimed artist from Montreal is exploring the world of old age in a show at Massey Theatre.

Dulcinea Langfelder is onstage Friday, Oct. 27 and Saturday, Oct. 28 in Victoria, the story of a wheelchair-bound 90-year-old facing the loss of her memory and her autonomy – and all the other trappings of aging.Victoria is described as “a character who has forgotten her role, a puppet who adapts and adopts comic and dramatic situations as her imagination dictates.

Her wheelchair is also her rocking chair, her prison, her tango partner and her flying chariot.”

Langfelder takes a multifaceted approach to performance, calling upon acting, dance, mime and storytelling along with physical theatre, music and multimedia.

Victoria is onstage Friday at 7:30 p.m. and Saturday at 2 p.m.Tickets range from $15 to $35 and are available through www.ticketsnw.ca or 604-521-5050.

MONDAY MOVIE Film buffs, don’t miss out on the next Last Mondays at the Movies showing at Massey Theatre.

Where theatre meets activism

Continued from page 13 Legere says A Piece of My Heart is a challenging play to stage, with fast scene changes and character shifts, and much information bombarding the audience in what he describes as an “overwhelming sensory experience.”

“It’s a kind of rough-andtumble aesthetic,” he says.

“It’s just kind of flying at you very fast.”

Both he and Cyr say it’s been possible to embrace the play’s challenges because of the dedication of all the actors.

“It’s a very courageous group of artists,” Legere says, noting the play deals with extremely difficult and uncomfortable subject mat-

ter.

“Nobody shies away,” agrees Cyr. “Everybody’s just so engaged all the time. … I’m enamoured with our cast.They’re just so kind as human beings. Rehearsals have been really special; everybody is so supportive of one another.”

Ultimately, Legere and Cyr would like to see their theatre company become part of something bigger.

Legere would love to see the company take up residence in a shared space with a group devoted to social activism.

“I want this to be just as much about on-the-ground activism as theatre,” he says.

Cyr loves the idea of using theatre to effect social

change – for instance, offering participatory theatre programs for people who have faced trauma.

“Theatre, the medium, is a really great outlet for that,” she says. “I think our company is really more part of a movement than just putting plays on.”

Realizing that they’re doing something to make a difference is what gives them the motivation to keep at it.

“I’ll wake up and there’s this huge to-do list,” Legere says. “Knowing that there’s really something I believe in gives me the energy to put in that extra couple of hours.”

Cyr agrees. “There is legit nowhere else I would rather be.”

Community Put it in plain language

City is first in B.C. to ditch the bureaucratese

By Theresa McManus

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

New Westminster is the first city in British Columbia to use “plain language” when proclaiming October as Community Inclusion Month.

Instead of using words like “whereas” in the proclamation, the city supported Community Inclusion B.C.’s request to use words like “because” as they’re easier to understand. Burnaby resident Barb Goode has been advocating for the use of plain language.

“I appreciate you making this more plain language for people,” said Goode, who is considered a pioneer in the self-advocacy movement.

Amy Nugent, executive director of the Inclusion B.C. Foundation, said the New Westminster-based organization is pleased the city proclaimed Community Inclusion Month using plain language.

“We are thrilled that this city has really taken a brave

step to proclaim this month, using a plain language version. No other municipality yet has taken us up on that,” she told council.

Mayor Jonathan Cote said institutions need to use language that the general public can understand.

“I was particularly touched when I received the request for a plain language proclamation,” he said. “It’s actually a beautiful idea. …

I was really excited to see this idea come forward. I’d love to see how we can better apply it to other ways in which governments work. ” Throughout October, communities across B.C. are promoting inclusion, celebrating diversity and raising awareness about the strengths and abilities of people with intellectual disabilities. In addition to proclaiming Community Inclusion Month, the city has also raised the Disability Pride flag at Friendship Gardens in October and is making space available at Anvil Centre for the Big

House exhibit, which runs in the community art space until Dec. 3.

“It’s a show that was originally put up in 1998, a couple of years after Woodlands closed,” Nugent said. “It’s people’s experiences and feeling of living in the big house – in Woodlands.”

Inclusion B.C. is excited to celebrate and share this emerging culture of community inclusion here in New West, Nugent said.

“Your organization has really done an amazing job in advocating and really helping to educate regarding these issues.We are certainly proud that you are centred right here in the city of New Westminster,” Cote said.

“Our city has a long history, some of it a troubled history, when it comes to dealing with individuals with mental disabilities, but I think we have also been able to grow through that and learn from that experience.We are certainly very happy to support your organization and all the works it is doing.”

Celebrating Seniors

Seniors urged to be aware of pedestrian safety Theresa McManus

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

A month-long pedestriansafety campaign aims to keep folks safe during one of the most dangerous times of the year.

According to ICBC, a disproportionate number of pedestrian-related crashes and injuries happen between October and January as visibility and conditions worsen on the roads. Fortythree per cent of all crashes involving pedestrians occur during those four months.

“Three-quarters of pedestrian crashes happen at intersections,” said Lindsay Matthews, ICBC’s director responsible for road safety.

“Unfortunately, pedestrians are extremely vulnerable to be hurt when involved in a crash.These crashes contribute to the rising number of injury claims in our province, which is the largest single cost pressure on B.C. insurance rates, but the reality is, these crashes are preventable.We all need to do our part to keep our roads

and pedestrians safe.”

Because dark and rainy conditions can seriously impact visibility, ICBC is reminding drivers to look for pedestrians, to keep their eyes on the road, to be extra alert at intersections and to be ready to yield the right of way to pedestrians.

“The most important tip if you’re walking is to take extra care to help drivers see you: stay focused on the road and make eye contact,” said an ICBC press release.

“ICBC and community police volunteers will be handing out reflectors and safety tips in high-pedestrian traffic areas across the province to help pedestrians stay visible.”

New West resident Vic Leach has been looking into pedestrian safety and has been on a mission to promote the use of reflectors and standards for reflectors since a friend from the Sapperton Pensioners’ Association was almost hit by a car in December 2014.

According to Leach, statistics show that people

aged 50 and older account for 61 per cent of pedestrian deaths.While pedestrians are doing the right thing by crossing at intersections, he said they still need to be aware of their surroundings as motorists don’t always see them.

“Look and think about crossing. Look both ways – it’s the old adage, look both ways before you cross rather than barge across,” he said.

“Wear something so that cars can see you and look for.”

ICBC is urging drivers to prepare for the changing road conditions that come with fall weather and offers the following tips:

WATCH FOR PEDESTRIANS: With shorter days and reduced visibility, be vigilant around intersections and watch for pedestrians and be on the lookout for cyclists and other road users.

SLOW DOWN ON WET ROADS: Allow yourself at least twice the normal braking distance on wet and slippery roads or roads covered in leaves to give yourself time to stop.The posted speed limits are intended for ideal conditions.

CHECK YOUR TIRES: Tires with lower tread depth and low pressure

Stay safe: Pedestrians are urged to use extra caution to be seen in the darker fall weather. PHOTO ISTOCK

ists should scan ahead for large puddles and reduce their speed – especially during heavy rain.

Community OUR PAST

Women’s stories key to city’s past the Royal City had, as part of its base population, many complete families who added their personal backgrounds to the community.

As the town was just getting off the ground in 1859, we note Caroline Kennedy, who, for a while, was the only woman in the place, sat at the first religious service in the city, held on the banks of the Fraser, in the company on that day of a large group of men. Kennedy went on to be a prominent resident for many years.

The family of Captain William Irving is frequently noted as an example of families who arrived and

October isWomen’s History Month in Canada.

In NewWestminster, we have found a great number of stories that feature women and we have used these stories as parts of various local historical themes.

There are many from which to choose, but a selection of examples will illustrate Women’s History Month.

The Corps of Royal Engineers who founded this city, many of whom stayed on in the area after the Corps was disbanded, included women and children.This meant

took up residence in the new town on the mainland.

Their arrival in 1865 saw Elizabeth with her children, four girls and a boy, become members of the community and thoroughly involved in the town’s activities for many decades.

Included in the numbers of people in large and small families, here to homestead or open a business or work for others, who moved into the region, were folks of different races, ethnicities, countries and cultures.

The women of all these possibilities were involved in all aspects of town, as is well documented in early news-

papers and other accounts.

The women of the First Nations groups nearby, along with First Nations men, were also part of the community and were active in trading handmade goods and participating in events.

This city has had a vast array of individuals, female as well as male, who made their marks, large or small, as the place evolved from a rough cluster of tents and crude shelters to a town of homes and buildings with societal and cultural needs.

Be sure to follow the parts of this story that is “women’s history.”

Q A

What is elumen hair colour?

Elumen is a permanent colour that eluminates hair intensively from inside out to achieve intense TANISHA results for color professionals. It’s STYLIST extremely healthy for the hair, being as it is not a chemical change in the hair but rather a physical change, causing your hair quality to improve after using this product. It provides shine like no other product on the market even when using fashion colours like pinks and reds that are very long lasting. When using pastel shades made with elumen the longevity is better than any other brand, but keep in mind that pastels will always fade away as there is a minimal amount of pigment or colour in a pastel shade.

Q A

Does your pet show signs of stress and anxiety before arriving at the veterinary clinic? Ask if pre-visit sedation may take the edge off and keep your pet happy and relaxed.

Fear Free certified professionals will bring you and your pet directly into the exam room when you arrive if your pet is nervous in the reception area.

This will allow your pet to explore the room and relax a little first.

Some hospitals use calming pheromones which are infused throughout the room using diffusers. Only dogs and cats can smell them, and they find them relaxing. There may also be music playing in the hospital that is specially created for canine and feline stress reduction.

In calm pet hospital environments, voices are kept low and calm, and force is never used to handle your pet. Gentle control techniques and mild sedatives are used when necessary to reduce your pet’s anxiety.

Unless it’s medically inappropriate, your pet should be given lots of treats during the visit. This is so he or she starts associating a trip to the veterinarian with good things! That will keep stress levels low. Bringing your pet into the appointment hungry can help this process along. Some veterinary hospitals will invite you to visit at any time with your dog for social visits to have a treat.

Some pets prefer to be examined up on an exam table, in your lap, in their carrier, or on the floor.

Non-slip yoga mats may be used on the exam table or on the floor to prevent slipping and help your pet feel secure.

Why should I pay a digital media professional to evaluate my website?

You want to increase your sales and business through your website but are you leaving money on the table with bad SEO CHERYL LEE (Search Engine Optimization)?

Using your site’s Google Analytics, a good digital media professional can identify any technical SEO problems, user-experience difficulties and any algorithm issues.

They will examine the link profile for any glaring problems and reveal the keywords (SEO and PPC) that your top 10 competitors are targeting and using. A site evaluation can make a big improvement in your search ranking when implemented. A digital media pro can uncover the main problems that prevent your site from ranking well, prioritize solutions with a clear action plan, access resources that SEO professionals use, and reveal new opportunities to increase your conversion rate.

DR. MANJU ARORA

My dog gets scared on Halloween, what can I do to keep him calm?

Halloween can be a stressful time for pets. Here are some tips to keep your pet safe: 1) Ask your veterinarian if he or she will prescribe a gentle sedative for your pet or recommend a calming

supplement or collar.

2) Create a safe room for your dog to avoid fear and escape when the door is opened for trick-or-treaters.

3) Take your dog for a long leash walk early in the day.

Keep cats indoors and in a secure part of the home.

4) Keep lit pumpkins out of reach or use LED lights to keep excited dogs and curious cats from getting hurt by an open flame.

5) Keep chocolate and candy safely away from your pets as some ingredients are toxic.

What are the benefits of creating a logo for my business?

Your logo is often the first point of contact for prospective clients or customers. It’s the one thing that they’ll see before knowing anything else about you and your MONICA SHOKAR business.

As such, creating a logo that represents you is a core business activity, just as important as leasing office space, recruiting the right people or developing your product or service. A good logo should be seen as an investment.

Designing or redesigning a logo often involves: 1) Research 2) Naming and tagline development 3) Brand strategy 4) Design or restyling of existing logos 5) Typography and colour palettes 6) Brand identity guidelines.

Q A

Why Retinol is such a workhorse in your skin care regimen?

As we age our cycle of cell production slows down to about 45-60 days in our 40’s and 50’s and further slow down to 60-90 days in our 50’s and 60’s. Retinol KATIE MARSHALL is a vitamin A derivative that has been used for anti-aging and acne clients for years. Retinol stimulates the metabolism of skin cells and encourages collagen production. Retinol is much gentler when absorbed within the skin and it’s converted into tretinoin (the acid form of vitamin A, also known as retinoic acid).

Retinol addresses all your anti-aging concerns like fine lines and wrinkles, uneven skin tone, and dryness.

It also helps prevent breakouts, clogged pores, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation from blemishes. With all this magic, who doesn’t want to control acne, have brighter more youthful skin.

NEW WEST PRIDE NAMES NEW BOARD A new crew is taking the helm of the New West Pride board of directors.

After serving as co-president with Jeremy Perry, New Westminster resident Mike Tiney was named president of New West Pride at the Sept. 28 annual general meeting.

Perry, who is moving to the sidelines after four years on the board, is stoked about the number of folks who’ve stepped forward to serve on the board and is

confident the organization is in good hands.

“Being part of New West Pride during its transformation from a small festival in the park to a multistage street party has been rewarding.The visibility and support for the LGBT+ community has and is growing, but there’s still so much to do.Too often trans, bi or people of colour can feel excluded, and this is something that needs to actively be addressed,” he said. “I’m really proud of what we’ve accomplished, and look forward to continue supporting New West Pride in the future.”

Salvation Army thrift store marks a milestone Theresa McManus MOVERS & SHAKERS

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

The Salvation Army Thrift Store is celebrating a milestone in New Westminster this week.

The store, which has been located in the B.C. Electrical Railway Building at 774 Columbia St. for 10 years, has called New Westminster home for more than 40 years. Prior to moving into its present location, it was located across the street at 811 Columbia St. “Our New West location is our largest and one of our most successful in B.C. for years,” said Maytte Abad, retail district manager at the Salvation Army Thrift Store.

“We are extremely honoured to have served this tight-knit community for over 40 years and to have played a part in the growth, development and preservation of the history of the city.”

The B.C. Electric Building, located next to Hyack Square, was designed by architect Samuel Maclure and built in 1911. It was declared as a municipal heritage site in 2007.

The thrift store is inviting the community to celebrate a decade at the location by taking advantage of its instore celebrations – including giveaways, refreshments and sale prices – on Oct. 27.

Salvation Army Thrift Store manager Chippy Singh said the team is “very excited” about the anniversary and is looking forward to celebrating another 10 years at this location.

“In almost 10 years, the thrift store has contributed almost $40,000 towards sending children to summer camps, assisting children overseas and providing support to families and individuals in need,” said a press release from Salvation Army Thrift Stores. “For families and individuals who need additional support, the thrift

store has also provided over $400,000 of items free of cost through their voucher program.”

The store is open Monday to Friday from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.

PARTY TIME AT RIVER MARKET Community members are invited to say “Howdy, neighbour” to fellow citizens at River Market.

The market is having a free community block party on Saturday, Oct. 28 from 3 to 6 p.m. at 810 Quayside Dr. “From free caricatures and crafts to music by Stardust String Band, games and treats, this is a great opportunity to meet and greet your neighbours while having fun – for the whole family,” said a write-up about the harvest edition of the community block party.

TO FIND OUT MORE ABOUT UPCOMING CHAMBER EVENTS OR TO BECOME A MEMBER, PLEASE VISIT OUR WEBSITE The Importance of Entrepreneurs in a Community: What is an entrepreneur, anyway? She is your daughter, standing in your driveway selling your rhododendrons to neighbours for $0.05 with a glass of lemonade. He is both the stylish, young owner of your favourite yoga studio, and the old man down the street with the excellent sandwich shop.

In accordance to Merriam-Webster, an entrepreneur is one who organizes, manages, and assumes the risks of a business or enterprise.

So, what do entrepreneurs bring to your community? Should you be fostering their businesses’ presence, and growth? The answer is yes–a thousand times over. Here’s why: New growth in the economy: Fresh ideas and perspective not only lead to new businesses, but they lead to new growth in an old economy. New eyes are able to spot holes in need of filling, that others might not have noticed in the current market place. In turn, new markets are developed, and new wealth is brought to the community. Moreover, with new innovation comes greater quality of life.

Attractive investment to newcomers: With innovation comes new jobs and, you guessed it–new residents to pursue those jobs. The presence, and success of entrepreneurs makes your community attractive to prospective new residents and young people; those who will invest in your community in making it their home.

While communities need entrepreneurs, it works in the opposite way as well; we need you, because with community comes inspiration, mentorship, and a customer base.

Entrepreneur tip: A community organization like The Chamber of Commerce facilitates support, knowledge, and resources entrepreneurs might not even know to look for; providing an invaluable mentorship.

You can keep your community from growing stale in its marketplace and innovation by establishing your own relationships with entrepreneurs in town. Purchase services from a startup, try out that new boutique down the road, or learn more about a local organization promoting social change. In turn, your community will establish the roots to grow, exponentially.

Undefeated Hyacks steamroll past Belmont

NewWest’s secondary unit shuts down passing game and delivers turnovers, as team improves to 7-1

By Dan Olson

dolson@newwestrecord.ca

It’s becoming more and more evident that the New Westminster Hyacks have a first-rate secondary.

The senior AAA football team’s backfield boys played a huge role in New West’s 56-7 lambasting of the Belmont Bulldogs, improving their own record to 7-1 and 5-0 in the conference.

Timely interceptions and fumble recoveries proved to be the powderkeg for New West’s explosive attack. After Sebastien Reid opened the scoring on the team’s second series with a 70yard touchdown catch, Grade 10 defensive back Taran Birdi pulled down an interception and returned it to the third-yard line.

Sammy Sidhu carried it the rest of the way to make it 14-0.

Reid would punctuate the first quarter by catching another Kinsale Philip pass, this time a 52yard toss, and added a 54-yard punt return.

New West continued to find offensive holes in the second quarter, when Philip darted in from 12 yards out, and Sidhu bolted free on a 38-yard major. Michael Kingsley upped the lead to 49-0 before the half on a 28-yard dash.

“We only had 26 offensive plays and still scored 49 offensive points,” remarked Hyacks coach Farhan Lalji. “It’s a testament of how good our defence was, the great field position they kept giving us and turnovers.”

The defence stifled Belmont’s top star, receiver Eli Nelms-Horton, with both Birdi and Reid establishing a presence early.

Nelms-Horton was limited to just one catch for two yards in the first half.

“We shut (Nelms-Horton) down quite well and you could see, you kind of got the sense we

took him out of the game by his body language,” noted Lalji. “Defensively, our guys did a great job on him and we were also able to shut down (Belmont’s) run game.

Offensively, we were very explosive. Not many epic drives but a lot of big plays.”

Rounding out the offence was Lucas Sabau hitting receiver Finn Stark for a 38-yard major.

Philip only attempted three passes, but completing two for long touchdowns and 121 total yards.

The rushing tandem of Sabau and Sidhu – with running back Broxx Comia sidelined by an injury – only carried nine times between them. However, with the workload spread out and the defence providing great field posi-

tion, there wasn’t any real heavy lifting required.

Add in the fact that the squad did a good job of addressing unnecessary penalties – partially responsible for 10 TDs called back over the year – and the coaching staff came away pleased.

“We’re getting there.The big thing was our discipline and our sense of team,” said Lalji. “We

played unselfishly and kept the team goals first.

“It’s sometimes easier to do that in the one-sided games than in the close, intense contests, but this was a step in the right direction.”

Next up for New West is Carson Graham.The Hyacks visit the North Shore on Friday (3:45 p.m.) to take on the 0-5 Eagles.

Provincials a primer for Royals’ national aspirations

Douglas College enters Friday’s semifinals as the favourite, but faces a familiar foe in a must-win match

By Dan Olson

dolson@newwestrecord.ca

A two-game run – that is what’s required for the Douglas College Royals’ women’s soccer team to advance to the Canadian Collegiate Athletic Association championships.

It’s also what three other teams are vying for, as this week’s PacWest provincial championships hit the Quest University turf in Squamish.

Having locked up a league title in Saturday’s 2-1 victory over the Capliano Blues, the Royals have rank-

ing on their side. But that is still $4 short for a tall latté in real life.

Douglas’ head coach Chris Laxton said his crew is as prepared as possible, and having played in the past two provincial finals and back-to-back nationals, they know how to approach Friday’s must-win semifinal against Vancouver Island.

“We’re feeling pretty good, but when it’s a oneoff game it’s fairly tricky,” said Laxton. “Fortunately, with the past few years we have experience in these big games.”

As do the Mariners,

who were the Royals’ rivals in those two B.C. finals.

Both won once (Douglas in 2015), and while that experience plays right into the build-up, Laxton said his squad has been building toward this moment all year.

In fact, the coach said the addition of Leanne Fielding to the staff a few years ago as mental preparation coach has been a big asset.

“In the last two years we’ve played (the Mariners) 11 times, so we know each other very well and there’s not many secrets,” said Laxton. “I think an edge for us has been in mental prepara-

tion, and that’s due to (Leanne Fielding). In my first year, after we lost in the semifinal, we realized that we needed someone to help with our mental strength.

“Since then, we’ve won big games and lost big games but we’ve been in every big game. (Fielding) has been quite instrumental in getting us playing with consistency.”

It was a big game last week against Capilano that wrapped the regular season, with the winner taking top spot.

The Royals took the lead six minutes in when a well-

placed free kick was misdirected into the net by a Capilano player. In the second half, Douglas went up 2-0 when a cross again hit

... We know each other very well and there’s not many secrets.

a Cap defender and ricocheted into the net.

While the Blues made it close with 10 minutes left,

the two own goals gave the Royals the win.

With a roster that features just one graduating player – fifth-year co-captain Michelle Wessa – coach Laxton said getting to a third straight nationals would be a great opportunity for his young squad.

It will be also a big step for the program, which is hosting the 2018 nationals.

“Once we were (awarded) the nationals our focus turned to 18 months. It puts additional emphasis on this year.We really want to get there this year as part of preparing for next year.”

Jr. Hyacks clinch conference title

With just one game left in the regular season, the New West junior Hyacks are looking like a juggernaut.

The Hyacks maintained a perfect record by downing W.J. Mouat 32-12 last week at Mercer Stadium.

Dominic Racher got the ball rolling with the first major of the day, followed by tight end Matt Drake, on a pass from Payton Meyers.

Scoring a pair of touchdowns was Greyson Planinsic, while Taran Birdi counted another major.

Linemen Jayden Williams and Austin Ducommun were

huge contributors in the victory, as New West improved to 3-0 and clinched the Central Conference regular season title.

It came on the heels of a hard-fought 14-9 decision over rival St.Thomas More a week earlier.

In that game, majors by Himat Garcha and Birdi gave the Hyacks a 14-0 lead, while the defence pulled off a key last minute goal-line stand to preserve the victory.

New West wraps up the regular season today (Thursday), 5:30 p.m. against Centennial at Mercer Stadium.

Douglas sweeps CBC

The Douglas College men’s volleyball team improved to 2-2 on the young season with a sweep of the visiting Columbia Bible College Bearcats last week.

They took both matches 3-0, but saw the Bearcats put up quite a challenge in Friday’s game, where the Royals prevailed 25-22, 25-19, 25-22. Jared Collins set the tone with 31 assists on the day, while JerryYan racked up 10 kills.

A day later, Douglas won by an easier 25-18, 25-16, 25-17 margin.

RODGERS, Ivor 1953 - 2017 Ivor Rodgers passed away on October 3, 2017 in New Westminster at the age of 64 following a short battle with cancer.

Ivor’s career in business started at age 10 when he got his first job as a paper boy for the Province newspaper. In high school he joined Junior Achievement from which he gained more business skills and developed many close friends that turned into lifelong friendships. His career path eventually lead to Scotia Bank where he worked for over 35 years, the majority of those years at the branch at Broadway and Commercial. He loved his job and his clients and always went the extra mile to ensure his customers received the very best service.

Ivor was a huge sports fan and loved watching sports at home or with his many friends at various sports bars. His summer holidays were spent camping in Jasper, Alberta where he loved getting back to nature and totally relaxing. Ivor was also known as a Baker. He loved making cookies and jam throughout the year for his co-workers and friends. He was a very generous and kind man and treated all his friends as “FAMILY”.

PONGRACZ (Mavor), Marilyn Eva August 3, 1943 - October 17, 2017

Marilyn Pongracz (Mavor) passed away relaxing at home. Marilyn was at peace. Resident of New Westminster for 70 years before moving to Abbotsford 4 years ago to be with her boys.

Marilyn touched a tremendous amount of people through churches she attended and her volunteering with New Westminster hockey and lacrosse. You knew when Marilyn was coming as her smile radiated around corners and brightened rooms.

Marilyn was the type of person that her sons friends would call her mom. In recent years she was a fixture at her grandchildren’s schools and sporting events. Marilyn also enjoyed traveling, recent trips included Australia with Leona and Las Vegas with Carol. Marilyn is survived by sons; Frank (Rita), Steve (Dawne), grandchildren Jordan & Tyler and Cassie & Alex.

Ivor is fondly remembered by his mother Eileen Rodgers, siblings Frederick Rodgers, Frank (Lee) Rodgers, Lynanne Beck and nephew Jonathan Beck. He is predeceased by his father William Rodgers. No service by request.

Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a Sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes.

WILD RICE The award-winning Wild Rice Restaurant located at River Market, has never wavered from a commitment to fusion inspired farm to table dishes. In every way, presentation, taste, technique, Wild Rice cuisine exceeds expectations.

“Wild Rice was the first restaurant to bring the concept of ‘modern Chinese’ to the Lower Mainland,” says owner, Andrew Wong“. For me, integral to being a ‘modern Chinese restaurant’ is our focus on using locally sourced sustainable ingredients. Although locally sourced is a growing trend, we do this by nature.”

Monday is Happy Hour all day!

- ANDREW WONG, OWNER

Whether it’s Ocean Wise seafood, hormone free meat, organic or farm fresh vegetables, everything is made in house to order. This culinary virtuoso fuses elements of Chinese cuisine he remembers from his youth with the offerings of the West coast to craft some of the best fare you’ll find in the Royal City.

New at Wild Rice is Happy Hour every day! Come down and sample a wide variety of tasty dishes such as spicy green beans, chicken skins and the always popular salt and pepper squid. Pair with your favourite local craft beer or try something new like the Lotus with lychee infused vodka, lime lychee nectar and ginger ale. The Happy Hour menu is perfect for after work or before a big night out.

At Wild Rice, the combination of excellent food, drinks, service and atmosphere has led to a following of loyal customers that continues to grow. For more information, visit www.wildricebc.ca or call 778-397-0028.

This popular eatery is open every day. @wildricebc 810 Quayside Drive, New Westminster 778.397.0028
