New Westminster was quick to jump on the provincial government’s plan to create more housing in British Columbia.

The province is providing about $6.5 million to build 41 new modular homes for homeless women.The project, which will be

located on a city-owned property on Ewen Avenue in Queensborough, will also provide tenants with 24-7 support services, including meal programs, life-skills training and health and wellness supports.

“It’s vitally important that we invest the time and effort to help the women in our communities who are living on the streets at great risk to their personal safety,” New

Westminster MLA Judy Darcy, the province’s Minister of Mental Health and Addictions, said in a press release. “Through my work in the New Westminster community, I am acutely aware of the challenges these women face, and I am so grateful that this project can begin to meet their needs.”

Mayor Jonathan Cote said the project will be located on a former gas station site

Front Street closed to trucks during sewer work Theresa McManus

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

Front Street is once again off limits to trucks.

MetroVancouver has begun work on a major sewer upgrade project, requiring Front Street to be closed to all vehicle traffic between Columbia and Begbie streets for about six months.

While regular vehicles can still use most of Front Street, with a short detour on Begbie Street, large trucks aren’t permitted.

“Truck traffic will not be allowed on Front Street at all. During the day, it will be

diverted to Royal Avenue, and post the hours allowed on Royal Avenue, it will have to find other routes, either on the perimeter of the city or outside the city,” said Mayor Jonathan Cote.

Colin Meldrum, Metro Vancouver’s division manager of liquid waste services, project delivery, said the contractor started work on the project on Monday and was instructed to have the work substantially complete in October.

“This will be a challenge,” he told council Monday, “but we are confident it can be done.”

The work, taking place in a section of Front Street behind Kelly O’Bryan’s restaurant, is related to the Sapperton pump station that’s now under construction and will be complete in 2019. It will eventually carry liquid waste from NewWestminster and neighbouring communities to the Annacis Island treatment plant.

“The work we are doing is very complicated,” Meldrum said. “We want to make sure we are protecting the environment and public health and safety at all times through this work.”

Front Street businesses

will be open for business as usual.Work on the project will be done Monday to Saturday between 7 a.m. and 8 p.m.

To get the project done as fast as possible, MetroVancouver will be applying for variances from the city so it can work on the project in the evening on occasion.

Cote said the most common complaint he’s heard about this project is why it couldn’t have been coordinated with recent road closures to minimize the disruption on the community.

Meldrum said Metro Vancouver had originally

hoped to do the work with the closure of Front Street in 2016/2017 (when the city demolished part of the

This will be a challenge, but we are confident it can be done

parkade and built the new Front Street mews) but was unable to do so because of a number of staffing issues.

Cote said most people

recognize that underground infrastructure projects do create some inconvenience, but they’re important and need to be done.

“No one gets excited over improvements to the regional sewer system, but if it didn’t work, we’d have some major problems,” he said.

In response to questions about smell, Meldrum said there will be several days of open sewer work, during which time there will be some “localized odour,” but it’s not anticipated to be noticeable in residential areas.

Pedestrian overpass planned for Stewardson Theresa McManus

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

The West End Residents’ Association is thrilled pedestrians and cyclists could finally have a safe way to cross Stewardson Way. Representatives from the B.C. Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure attended a council workshop on Monday to update the city on plans to build a pedestrian and cyclist overpass over Stewardson Way, near Grimston Park.

“We are still coming up with our actual schedule.

We should have more detailed information in the coming weeks,” said Elena Farmer, a Lower Mainland operations manager with the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure.

“We are hoping for it to be open sometime next year.”

The ministry is still working out the details on some aspects of the overpass, such as how it can be made more esthetically pleasing and whether it will include lighting.

“I think it’s great,” said Coun. Bill Harper. “This has been, I don’t know how many years in the making, 15?”

Coun. Patrick Johnstone, chair of the city’s advisory committee for transit, bicycles and pedestrians (ACTBiPed), supports the project, which includes a connection to the B.C. Parkway, but he would like to see better connections between the overpass and the West End neighbourhood and Grimston Park.

Mayor Jonathan Cote said he sees the city playing a “fairly large role” in ensuring the overpass integrates into the neighbourhood.

Coun. Chuck Puchmayr said he’s seen people “risking their lives” crossing Stewardson Way. He wants crime prevention through environmental design considered in the design so people feel comfortable using the overpass.

“I think lighting is important,” he said. “You really need to bring in lighting.

Don’t build a structure, that at night, seniors and women will feel more comfortable crossing the road than taking the overpass.That is counterproductive.”

On the topic of the B.C. Parkway, Johnstone said he’d like staff to report on improvements to one particular section of the route on Stewardson Way between 14th Street and Fifth Avenue, suggesting it’s “quite sub-optimal” and in need of improvements.

Cote said the overpass has been a “bit of a loose end” since work was done on the north side of the Queensborough Bridge and he’s looking forward to seeing it built.

Back in 2008, the federal and provincial governments funded changes to Highway 91A at Howes Street and at the Queensborough Bridge north bridgehead as part of their goal of improving the transportation of goods in the region.When the project was complete, the city identified the lack of a pedestrian crossing on Stew-

ardson Way, between River Drive and Grimston Park, as a key issue resulting from the project.

Council passed motions put forward by Johnstone to direct staff to report back on plans to connect the overpass into the existing pedestrian and cycling connections around Grimston Park and the West End and to review work needed on the existing B.C. Parkway.

The province’s decision

to build the overpass is being welcomed by the West End Residents’ Association, which has been pushing for an overpass for more than a decade.

In an email to the Record, the association’s secretary-treasurer stated a crossing across Sixth Avenue and Stewardson Way was eliminated when changes were made to the north end of the Queensborough Bridge.

Gavin McLeod said a replacement above-grade access was promised but not delivered, with money being the biggest barrier.

“Jaywalking across Stewardson Way is common and is dangerous due to the volume and speed of traffic,” he said. “It seems that 16 years of effort are about to be rewarded.”

Opinion OUR VIEW

How can we find words when there aren’t any?

Dear Humboldt, We wish we knew what to say.

We wish there were magic words that could somehow make this all make sense, that could bring peace and healing to a community torn apart by grief and loss.

There are no such words.

So we’re doing the very, very little we can to show you you’re in our thoughts and in our hearts.

We’re wearing our jerseys.

We’re putting our hockey sticks out on our porches.

We’re lighting candles and saying prayers.

We’re standing shoulder to shoulder with our family members, our teammates, our colleagues to pay tribute to the 16 lives that were lost in that one tragic accident – and to those loved ones who now have to figure out how to pick up the pieces of their lives and carry on.

We’re thinking of you all.

We wish there were magic words that could somehow make this all make sense …

We didn’t know these young men whose futures were so bright.

We don’t know the mothers and fathers who sent them off on the team bus to play the sport they loved –

and who couldn’t, in their worst dreams, have imagined they would never see those sons again.

We don’t know the ripples these deaths have sent, and will continue to send,

through your community.

How many plans have been halted. How many tears have been shed. How many hearts have been broken.

How many lives have been irrevocably, cruelly changed.

We only know that fate can be volatile.That in another place, on another day, these could have been our sons, our brothers, our neighbours and teammates and friends.

So we cry with you. And

we send our photos and tweets and Facebook messages out into the universe in the hopes that somehow, some way, our collective love and support will ease your grief, just a little.

We don’t know you, Humboldt.

But right now, we are all here for you.

Love, Canada #HumboldtStrong

MY VIEW KEITH BALDREY

Will Justin Trudeau blink?

The prime minister talked a good game on the weekend about how the Kinder Morgan pipeline expansion will be built, no matter what. Full stop.

Now, it is one thing to invite B.C. Premier John Horgan into the same room, have a polite discussion about the pipeline and end the conversation with an agreement to disagree.

It is quite another thing to watch what is likely to unfold in the months ahead, as hundreds of people (quite possibly more) are arrested for defying an injunction at the Kinder Morgan facility on Burnaby Mountain.

They hope to inflict maximum political damage on the Trudeau brand.

A former cabinet minister in the 1990s NDP government told me he wondered whether Trudeau had the political resilience to weather the coming storm.

“We went through this with Clayoquot Sound, and Harcourt blinked,” he told me, referring to the forestry protests on Vancouver Island, in which more than 800 people were arrested.

Trudeau won 17 seats in B.C. in the last election and in a byelection since then.

While opinion polls show more British Columbians tend to support the pipeline than oppose it, it is likely any hardcore opposition is rooted in Metro Vancouver, where most of those Liberal ridings are located.

The question is, how much of that electorate will leave the Liberals over Kinder Morgan, and will it translate into a serious seat loss? The answer is unclear, but surely, some ridings will

be in jeopardy.

Assuming Trudeau can hold his nerve in the face of mass protests, there are likely only two other obstacles in his path: B.C.’s court case on whether it can regulate the transport of bitumen, and a court challenge

by First Nations opposed to the pipeline.

Most constitutional experts have given B.C. a poor chance of winning in court, but given higher courts’ previous favourable rulings on First Nations’ territorial rights, a First Nations lawsuit has the potential to derail the project.

Court challenges aside, Trudeau has another potential problem when it comes to relations with First Nations. Some leaders, such as Grand Chief Stewart Phillips of the Union of B.C. Indian Chiefs, have threatened an “Oka-like” standoff.

The “Oka crisis” involved a confrontation and standoff between the Mohawk First Nation and eventually Canadian Armed Forces troops sent in by the government. More than 40 First Nations back the pipeline project or have signed benefits agreements, which is a significant amount of support. But there is also considerable opposition, and Phillips’ warnings should not be discounted.

It all adds up to a lot of pressure about to be placed on Trudeau’s shoulders. In the coming months, we’ll know if he can take it. But he’s gone all-in on the pipeline, and so, if he wants to ensure his political future, there’s no blinking allowed.

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

Hitman’s trial moved A B.C. Supreme Court judge decided in January the accused triggerman in the murder of a young mother and former Miss Burnaby pageant runner-up wasn’t going to get a fair jury trial in New Westminster. Alexandra Pesic, 25, was gunned down outside of her workplace in 1992.

A New West jury had found her former mother-in-law, Jelka Pesic, and two others guilty of hiring a hitman to kill her. Because of the massive media attention those trials drew, Justice Thomas Braidwood ruled the trial of the triggerman, David Segoviano, should be moved to Victoria.

INBOX

It’s time to move on from broken capitalist model Dear Editor: Not long ago, there was a report on CEOs’ and executives’ outrageous compensation of $10 million or more and other disgusting benefits.

Let me quote what the renowned economist, John Maynard Keynes, had to say: “The love of money as a possession – as distinguished from the love of money as a means to the enjoyments and realities of life – will be recognized for what it is, a somewhat disgusting morbidity, one of those semi-criminal, semi-pathological propensities which one hands over with a shudder to the specialists in mental disease.”

You have to wonder how these detached, selfabsorbed people justify their unconscionable greed as a right. But I guess it’s not hard for the one per centers to be detached from real life, a life in which, for instance, the two richest families in the Canada, the Thompsons and Westons, have as much wealth as the poorest 30 per cent, or about 12 million citizens.

These are the same people who rail against paying taxes and many of whom have millions, if not billions in offshore accounts in such tax havens as the Cayman Islands.

I wonder how they can look in the mirror or sleep at night, knowing that in this rich country, poverty prevails with children going to bed and to school hungry and more and more people, among them seniors, going homeless. In B.C., we

have, for example, about 800,000 people living in poverty, of which 172,000 are children and 100,000 are seniors.

But I guess Keynes was right to refer to it as semi-criminal, disgusting or a pathological mental disease. Are these people without a moral or social conscience, or can one just pass it off as our capitalistic, corporate society – a society based on the law of the jungle, the bottom line neoliberal ideology, about austerity,

I wonder how they can look in the mirror or sleep at night … not people, a system that has, according to the well-known economist, Peter Fleming, outlived its usefulness?

I’m optimistic that the system we live under now is on its way out. This system of “I’m all right, Jack,” without common cause and a fair sharing of our natural wealth, sustainable and in tune with nature, cannot continue.

It’s time for change, time to move on.

Kinder Morgan delivers pipes to New West site Lauren Boothby

editorial@newwestrecord.ca

Kinder Morgan is delivering pipes to New Westminster that could be used to carry diluted bitumen through the Lower Mainland.

The company announced last week it would be halting all non-essential spending on the controversial $7.4-billion expansion of its pipeline that runs from Edmonton to Burnaby.

Peter McCartney, a campaigner with the Wilderness Committee in Vancouver, took photos of trucks carrying pipes arriving at the

staging facility at 430 Canfor Ave. in New West last week and saw more pipes delivered to the facility on Monday. He said the group has been monitoring that site for the last six months after learning Kinder Morgan would be storing the pipes at that location.

Seeing the shipments arrive is making him feel nervous, he said.

“I think it should make it real for people that Kinder Morgan is still in this,” he told the Record. “I think the images of pipes should really keep people focused.

What we don’t want people to do is sit back and relax,

because Kinder Morgan is coming for us.”

McCartney said the pipes arriving is something the group has been anticipating for a long time, and seeing them means the next stage of the “fight” is starting. “(I am) pissed off that these pipes are arriving without the consent of communities around that route, and … this is a real visual sign that they are here and ready to go.That just frustrates the hell out of me.”

When asked about continued work at the site, Trans Mountain reiterated the company’s position that it had stopped “non-es-

sential spending” on the expansion.

“With a project of this scope and size, there is a long lead time required for the procurement of materials and the contracting of work,” stated an email response from the company. “As such, materials that were ordered and were in transit prior to last week’s announcement are arriving at worksites and some essential work that has already started may be continuing.”

In Burnaby, trucks have been seen coming and going from the terminal as workers continue to bring sediment, trees and water

out of the facility.Workers are culverting creeks that run through the property,

and preparing for excavation for new tanks.

Modular housing planned

FRESH CHOICES

Continued from page 1 the call out to cities across the province of British Columbia, essentially saying, if sites could be identified, the province would be willing to cover the full cost of building these facilities and operating them,” he said. “Given that New Westminster sits right in the middle of Metro Vancouver and has not been immune to all of the housing challenges that we face in our region, we felt that this was an important opportunity to try and take advantage.”

B.C. Housing will select an experienced non-profit partner to operate the

housing and oversee property management, operations management and tenant selection.The modular homes will be self-contained and include a private bathroom and kitchen, and the building will also include a shared amenity space.

“Although these are modular units, I think they have come a long way in being able to deal with some of the esthetics issues and make sure that these types of structures can seamlessly fit into the community and can actually look like really good buildings,” Cote told the Record. “This is not going to be a short-term,

put-some-trailers-on-thesite. It’s going to be a proper development, and the City of New Westminster is going to be making sure that this project fits well into the community.”

An open house is expected to be held in the coming weeks to give the community a chance to learn more about the project and provide feedback. It’s anticipated the province may bring one of the units to the open house so community members can get a better understanding about what’s being proposed.

An application has been submitted for a Heritage Revitalization Agreement for 224 Sixth Avenue (shown in bold on the adjacent map). As part of this application, the heritage house would be legally protected through a Heritage Designation Bylaw.

The agreement would allow the lot to be subdivided. A new two storey house with a basement suite would be built on the new lot to the east. The heritage house would be retained and relocated forward on the west lot. A secondary suite in the basement and a rear addition would be integrated into the heritage house. Additionally, Zoning relaxations have been requested for the size of the new lot and the Floor Space Ratio of the new house. No relaxations are requested for the heritage house and lot.

The HRA would allow relaxations to the Zoning Bylaw, including an increase in the Floor Space Ratio for the property. In exchange, the heritage house will be fully restored and protected through a Heritage Designation Bylaw.

Talia Monno crowned Miss New West 2018

Seven teens installed as the 2018 NewWestminster Hyack Ambassador team during Saturday gala Theresa McManus

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

Seven Royal City youth are embarking a busy year after being installed as the 2018 New Westminster Hyack Ambassador leadership team.

Talia Monno was crowned Miss New Westminster 2018 at the Evening of Stars awards gala, held at the Laura C. Muir Performing Arts Theatre at Douglas College on Saturday night.

Along with being named Miss New Westminster, Monno received the James Daniel Cartwright Diamond Award, the $1,000 Hyack scholarship, the Top Communicator Award and the Top Essay Award.

Chanel De Capite, who was named Hyack Princess, received the $750 Hyack Scholarship and Princess Pendant. Jasmine Rattan, who was the unanimous choice of all the candidates for Miss Friendship, received a $500 scholarship.

Sierra Pitkin was awarded the Bernie Legge Scholarship of $500; Isha Sandhu received the Bill Brown Memorial Award for Top Talent and a $250 scholarship; Emma Canil won the Top Knowledge Award of a $300 scholarship; and Leah Binns won the People’s Choice Award and the Alumni Award.

Each Hyack Ambassador will also receive an additional scholarship of $400 at the end of their ambassadorial year to assist with their postsecondary education.

Retiring 2017 Hyack Ambassador, Maddie Lemieux, was awarded the Spirit

Award and a $500 scholarship for her outstanding community service.

Becci Dewinetz, who has helped program coordinator Deb Wardle for the past 10 years and assisted with the program for many years before that, said more than $7,000 worth of scholarships and awards were handed out at the event.

She said it’s amazing to see how much the young women have grown since starting their weekly Tuesday night training sessions in September.

There’s a lot of skills that we teach them that they just don’t get in school.

“Every Tuesday night we bring in a different professional to train them, whether it’s public speaking or writing a resumé or changing a tire or self-defence.

It just goes on and on and on,” she said. “There’s a lot of skills that we teach them that they just don’t get in school. How to carry on a conversation – they get their full Toastmasters certificate when they are finished the program. Public speaking is so important.”

Dewinetz said the training enables the young women to become “fantastic ambassadors” for New Westminster.While attending festivals in B.C. and Washington State, the young women

bring greetings from the mayor and city council and the City of New Westminster and promote the city “They have a full year ahead of them,” said Dewinetz, who was Miss New Westminster 1981. “The year includes tons and tons and tons of volunteer hours through Honour House, Dunwood Place,Thornebridge Gardens, cystic fibrosis.There is a whole list of things they volunteer for.They travel throughout the Pacific Northwest for the full year to all the out-of-town festivals.”

With a mandate of “serving our community – representing our city,” the youth program aims to provide leadership training, volunteer and service opportunities and awards post-secondary scholarships to all participants.

“It would be nice to have more people wanting to help, wanting to step up and join the program,” Dewinetz said. “The benefit to the youth is so huge, it would be nice to see people coming and wanting to be more involved. It just warms my heart that these girls come out and do this.”

Applications for the 2019 New Westminster Hyack Ambassador Leadership Program will be available on the Hyack Festival website www.hyackfestival.com on May 1, and an info session for interested families will be held May 10.

Anyone who is interested can email wncbrown@shaw. ca to reserve a seat.

Arts & Entertainment REVIEW

Cabaret is an irresistible dance into darkness Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@newwestrecord.ca

If you leave Massey Theatre after watching Royal City Musical Theatre’s Cabaret and you can stop yourself from humming a little Willkommen or Cabaret on your way home, you might want to check your pulse.

The John Kander and Fred Ebb musical, centred around a seedy Berlin cabaret in the early 1930s, features one irresistible tune after another.

One of the biggest strengths of Royal City Musical Theatre’s production is that it doesn’t get in the way of that.

For one thing, it doesn’t take itself too seriously – a temptation in a musical that tackles some dark themes.

Director-choreographer Valerie Easton deftly balances the show’s sinister undertones, foreboding the Nazis’ rise to power in Germany, with the bawdy, decadent good times being had by all at the Kit Kat Klub, with its

kicklines, thruples, loose ladies in fishnets and pretty boys in shorts and crop tops.

The fun is tinged with a sense of impending calamity, but it’s still bloody fun.

The story revolves around

Onstage What: Cabaret, presented

by Royal City Musical Theatre Where: Massey Theatre, 735 Eighth Ave. When: April 18 to 22 and April 26 to 29.

Tickets: 604-521-5050 or www.ticketsnw.ca. a young American writer, Cliff Bradshaw, played with convincing gee-shucks naiveté by Tim Howe, and his relationship with English cabaret performer Sally Bowles, played by Lauren Bowler.

Bowler’s Bowles is more confident and cheeky than, say, Liza Minelli’s in the

1972 film adaption of the show, keeping her essential neediness, insecurity and despair much farther below the surface.

It’s a timely reorientation, given the rise of women’s voices in the performing arts over the last few years.

(More could have been done, perhaps, to re-envision the misogynistic humour in the show’s opening number, Willkommen, without sacrificing its intended raciness – but I’m not exactly sure how.)

Bowler, with strong vocal performances and daring dances, carries the show, along with Andrew Cownden, who plays the Emcee – everyone’s favourite corrupting influence.

Cownden, with cherubic cheeks and painted-on cupid’s-bow lips, is well cast as the embodiment of the cabaret – fun, irreverent and covering beneath this veneer something darker.

In a role that requires agility, a lot of singing and a definite X factor, Cownden

Come to the cabaret: Lauren Bowler brings a cheeky confidence and strong vocal performance to the role of Sally Bowles in Royal City Musical Theatre’s Cabaret, onstage until April 29 at Massey Theatre. PHOTO EMILY COOPER, COURTESY ROYAL CITY MUSICAL THEATRE

shows he’s up to the task.

Olesia Shewchuk, as Fraulein Kost, amuses as she entertains a parade of sailors in her rented room, while Gavin LeClaire, as Ernst Ludwig, gives us a

straightforward glimpse of the kind of man who’ll thrive after Hitler makes Germany great again.

In a subplot of their own, Cheryl Mullen, as the German landlady Fraulein

Schneider, and Damon Calderwood, as the Jewish fruit seller Herr Schultz, show just the opposite and set up the show’s most haunting scene.

DRY GRAD GETS A BOOST New Westminster Secondary School’s dry grad

CE

Students from F.W. Howay Elementary School joined home-based vendors at River Market Sunday for the third annual spring fair hosted by the Howay parent advisory council (PAC).

The event is a fundraiser and proceeds from table rentals go directly to the PAC to help to pay for events and programs for kids at Howay, including inschool karate instruction, Fun Day, pancake breakfasts, holiday crafts and new books for the school library.

A total of 28 vendors took part in the fair, including 15 students from Howay, 12 local businesses and Fraserside Community Services, according to PAC co-chair Garry Self.

Self estimates the fair raised about $600.

Way to go, everyone!

committee has a little extra in its coffers thanks to B.C. liquor store customers.

More than $3,000 was raised by the city’s two government-run liquor stores during the Liquor Distribution Branch’s dry grad campaign last month.

“We are thrilled by the level of support B.C. Liquor Stores’ customers have shown for this year’s Support Dry Grad campaign,” said Blain Lawson, general manager and CEO, Liquor Distribution Branch, in a press release. “The response clearly demonstrates the level of commitment from our customers and employees to keeping alcohol out of the hands of minors, and encouraging them to participate in safe, fun and memorable graduation celebrations.”

Dry grad parties are alcohol-free parties organized by parents for high school graduates. Usually it’s an all-night party with music, activities, prizes, food and more.

Across the province, more than $278,000 was raised

NATIONAL ORAL HEALTH MONTH HOW TO ENCOURAGE KIDS TO TAKE CARE OF THEIR TEETH Parents of young children know that getting kids to brush their teeth can sometimes feel like pulling teeth. Kids have a long history of disliking dental care, which can frustrate parents who know the importance and long-lasting benefits of proper dental hygiene.

While many youngsters may never excitedly run to the bathroom to brush their teeth, parents can try various approaches to get kids to embrace proper dental care.

1. Start early. Parents should not hesitate to begin cleaning kids’

teeth once the first tooth appears. The earlier dental care is part of a child’s routine, the more likely he or she is to accept it as part of everyday life. The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends using a soft-bristled brush with a small head. Ideally, use a toothbrush designed for infants, brushing teeth once per day at bedtime. The AAPD advises taking kids to visit a pediatric dentist when the first tooth appears, or no later than the child’s first birthday.

3. Involve kids in choosing their dental care products.While

parents should be mindful of the type of toothbrush their children use, always sticking with products recommended by their child’s pediatric dentist, let youngsters choose their toothbrush and toothpaste. Kids might prefer a particular flavor of toothpaste, and a colorful toothbrush with a favorite film or television character might make kids more enthusiastic and less fussy about brushing.

4. Compliment kids after positive dental appointments.When

pediatric dentist appointments go well, compliment children and express your pride in them for taking dental hygiene as seriously as they do.

2. Make it a group effort.Young children love to imitate their

parents’ actions and behaviors, and moms and dads can use that adoration to their advantage when trying to get kids to brush their teeth. Brush teeth together as a family, making it seem like an enjoyable twice-daily activity. Get down on kids’ level and show them how to brush. If kids are resistant, engage them in conversation while brushing so they don’t even realize they’re cleaning away.

Come discuss your oral health with us!

NATIONAL ORAL HEALTH MONTH CARING FOR DENTURES IMPROVES ORAL HEALTH Proper dental care and oral hygiene is essential at all stages in life, even for people who have dentures, partials or implants.

People with dentures must recognize that oral hygiene protects their dentures as well as their mouths.

The Canadian Denture & Implant Centres says that 16 percent of the population wear dentures.

Removable dentures require care to keep them clean and in good repair. Servicing dentures also helps ensure wearers’ mouths stay healthy.

Follow these guidelines to keep dentures clean.

1. Handle with care. Dentures

are strong, but they are not impervious to damage.

Treat them with care while handling, being sure not to bend or damage any clasps when cleaning, and try not to drop the dentures.When handling dentures, Colgate recommends standing over a folded towel or basin of water for added protection.

2. Brush daily. False teeth

need to be brushed, so don’t trade in your toothbrush just yet.

Brushing will help remove food deposits and prevent staining.

3. Take a break. Remove

dentures before going to bed and soak the dentures in warm water or special denture cleansers.

Removing dentures for six

to eight hours allows tissue inside the mouth to recover.

Soaking helps to remove stains, bacteria and tartar.

The Mayo Clinic notes that most dentures need to remain moist to keep their shape, so do not allow them to dry out.

4. Clean your mouth.While

dentures are removed, use gauze or a soft toothbrush to clean the tongue, palate and cheeks. If you still have any natural teeth, use a soft-bristled brush to cleanse. Always rinse dentures before returning them to your mouth.

5. Schedule regular dental

visits. Dentists can advise how frequently to have dentures checked for fit and professional cleaning.

Loose dentures can cause sores and infection, so it’s best to address any issues regarding fitting promptly.

Dentists also will inspect the inside of the mouth for signs of disease or irritation.

6. Eat healthy foods. Make

sure to eat a well-balanced diet to keep the body and mouth healthy. Cut up hard foods like fresh fruits and vegetables if dentures are impacting your ability to eat these foods.

People of all ages rely on partial or complete dentures to maintain their smiles. Routine care is necessary to keep the dentures intact and mouths healthy.

FESTIVAL OF LOSS

WHAT’S HAPPENING? The New West Hospice Society is hosting a Festival of Loss and Healing on Saturday, May 5 from 1 to 5 p.m. at New Westminster City Hall. It will be held on the front lawn and in the foyer of city hall. About 25 community organizations, including first responders, Century House, nonprofit organizations and spiritual care providers, will be on hand to share the types of losses they deal with to create a better understanding among various groups and the public.

WHAT IS THE FESTIVAL ABOUT? The festival seeks to educate the community about grief and loss using a variety of media and activities, such as displays, handouts, crafts and music. Along with food and entertainment, attendees will be able to make a craft involving rocks as a memorial to someone who has died.

WHAT IS THE NEW WEST HOSPICE SOCIETY’S VISION? Founded in 2016, the society aims to build a community where death is no longer hidden or whispered about, where people know what to say and do and where residents can die with dignity and family and friends can grieve well.

Along with death, the vision is to include other everyday losses people experience.

WHAT IS A COMPASSIONATE CITY? The society is using Dr. Allan Kellehear’s Compassionate City Charter to guide it in achieving an official Compassionate City designation for New Westminster. A Compassionate City model is one that involves whole communities adopting a compassionate approach to dying, death and loss. To do this, one of the society’s tasks is to host an annual peacetime memorial parade representing the major sectors of human loss

outside military campaigns – cancer, motor neuron disease, AIDS, child loss, suicide, animal companion loss, widowhood, industrial and vehicle accidents, the loss of emergency workers and all end-of-life care personnel, etc.

HOW DID THE IDEA OF A FESTIVAL ARISE? “Instead of doing a memorial parade, we have adapted it to make it a festival, bringing people together to talk about grief and loss, using a variety of media activities, crafts, music – and have citizens discover how similar we all are,” said Wendy Johnson, a member of New West Hospice Society’s board of directors. “It’s all about educating the community.”

WHY IS IT BEING HELD IN MAY? The Canadian Hospice Palliative Care Association deemed May 6 to 12 to be National Hospice Palliative Care Week 2018.

Community members are invited to do their bit for the planet at this year’s instalment of the Glenbrook Ravine restoration project.

The ecological enhancement project in the Glenbrook Ravine returns on Saturday, April 28 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.

“Last year we had a great turnout with a lot of positive attitudes, in spite of the initial rain,” said organizer Kyle Routledge in an email to the Record. “You know what they say, April showers bring easier Himalayan blackberry removal – or something to that effect.”

Community members of all ages are invited to take part in the event. People can park at the Glenbrook Park Amenities Centre (76 Jamieson Ct.), which is where they will meet at 10 a.m.

(Late arrivals can follow the trail and find the other volunteers.)

“This is a family-friendly event, and we have ways for people of all ages and abilities to get involved and contribute,” Routledge said.

“The work is not that hard, and refreshment, socialization breaks are welcome and encouraged.”

For more information, contact Kyle Routledge at kyleroutledge@gmail.com.

Middle school marks Vaisakhi Cayley Dobie

cdobie@newwestrecord.ca

A few days before thousands of people filled the streets of Vancouver to celebrate Vaisakhi, students at Queensborough Middle School held their own celebration to mark the birth of the Sikh faith.

Last Wednesday, students in Queensborough Middle School’s Punjabi class invited the entire school to an assembly to celebrate Vaisakhi.The students led the assembly, explaining the significance of the annual celebration to those in attendance, according to Punjabi Language Education Association president Balwant Sanghera.

“The whole school was buzzing with Vaisakhi-related activities. It was great to see the students greet guests with ‘Happy Vaisakhi’ at the main entrance to the school,” wrote Sanghera in an email to the Record.

Students entertained guests with bhangra dancing, speeches, poetry read-

ing and other cultural performances.

Parents and members of the local Sikh community, meanwhile, took part by preparing a South Asian feast, featuring samosas and sweets.

“It is a commendable way of creating more pride amongst students about their cultural heritage in

The whole school was buzzing … the Canadian context. Programs, activities and gestures like these go a long way in creating a positive

image of our community and enhancing opportunities for cross-cultural understanding.The organizers, (the school) and the New Westminster school district must be commended for promoting Punjabi and celebrations like this,” Sanghera wrote.

Building confidence, competence, connections, and community

for making our We love volunteers at the Burnaby Village Museum! communities a better place!

Volunteers are at the heart of every great program and event at the Burnaby Village Museum. For over forty years, dedicated volunteers have helped the Village become the exciting, vibrant and educational place that it is today. Each year, approximately 180 volunteers contribute over 12,000 hours.

To our Volunteers, August is known as the month of the Barbeque. This social tradition allows our volunteers and staff a chance to sit back, relax, and to enjoy a casual meal together. Many stories are told and friendships formed over ice cold glasses lemonade. During this event, Museum Staff provide very attentive table service as a special thank-you!

The volunteers bring a diverse and incredible set of talents, experiences and skills to the Museum and help “History Come to Life” for our visitors.

Our volunteers help to lead educational school programs, assist with community events and share their specialized skills to offer one-of-a kind public programs such as Model T Car Rides and Auto Shop Apprentice.

There are also volunteer opportunities behind the scenes; researching, cataloguing and providing updates to the museum database. This year saw the completion of research by the curatorial volunteers and re-launch of the Pharmacy exhibit!

The Museum continues to improve its volunteer in-take processes, training and learning opportunities. There are 2 intake periods during the year; March-April for spring and summer opportunities and October-November for the fall and winter. During the last orientation and training session, held in March, seventeen were approved and are now full-fledged BVM Volunteers! The Learning Workshops, for our volunteers, feature a different speaker and subject each month. Topics/activities have included exhibit interpretation techniques, Indigenous flora & fauna tours, and select Burnaby history subjects.

Each year in February the Museum hosts a Volunteer Appreciation Tea to acknowledge the extraordinary commitment of our volunteers. Our Emeritus program continues to grow as more volunteers, instead of retiring from the museum, are staying connected to the museum family by attending monthly learning workshops, attending volunteer appreciation events sharing information updates through our monthly newsletters.

More information about becoming a BVM Volunteer is available on-line at: burnabyvillagemuseum.ca/volunteers

Thanks to our out-going Honorary Reeve, Ewan Sheard and a warm welcome to Doreen Kennedy who is taking over for 2018. Our Honorary Reeve position was established in 2000. The incumbent, selected from among the Museum’s volunteers, serves as our ambassador, meeting the public and speaking at special events. Historically, the Reeve’s position in Burnaby transitioned into that of the Mayor. Mr. Alan H. Emmott served as the City’s last Reeve and its first Mayor (1958-1968). During the 1920s, the period represented at the Village, the Reeve was the most senior administrative position.

Irving House closed for renos

Restoration of the entrance and upper hall will be complete April 27 Theresa McManus

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

Work that’s underway at Irving House will go a long way toward making it a oneof-a-kind home in British Columbia.

Irving House is closed until April 27 so its entrance and upper hall can be restored to the late Victorian period – revealing papers not seen since the mid-20th century.The home, located at 302 Royal Ave., will reopen at noon on April 28.

Rob McCullough, the city’s manager of museums and heritage services, said Irving House is the city’s first protected building and the oldest intact home in mainland B.C. “This alone is noteworthy as not many buildings exist from our province’s earliest days. Notwithstanding, it is extremely rare, if not unheard of, to find the original finishes intact in a home of this age,” he said. “For nearly 100 years, the same family lived in the house, and these finishes offer a window into their lives as well

as the lives of the city’s first residents.”

While working with conservator Simone Vogel-Horridge in 2008, museum staff found original papers from 1897 to 1903 in the entrance and upper hallway of the house.These included a three-piece set consisting of a wallpaper, an 18-inch frieze (a sheet of paper that lies horizontally at the top of the wall and acts as a transition between the wallpaper and the ceiling) and a ceiling paper.

Last year, the city had these “stunning papers” meticulously redrawn and colour-matched to the home’s original palette.They were then printed in England and shipped to New Westminster for installation at Irving House.

As a complement to the papers, the hallway cornice work and entrance ceiling medallion will also be painted to match the original colour scheme.

According to the city, the work is part of an ongoing multi-year project to stabilize and restore Ir-

When the restoration work of Irving House is complete, there will be no other example like it … ving House to its original appearance at the turn of the 20th century. Since 2011, Irving House has received a new fire and electrical system and a state-ofthe-art geothermal heating and cooling system.The exterior of the house has also been repaired and repainted to match the original circa-1900 colour scheme.

Vogel-Horridge returned to Irving House last fall to clean and restore the rare and original gilded 1887 wallpapers in the house’s small parlour and is returning this month to do similar conservation work in the large parlour. All work will be completed in time for the annual Mother’s Day teas and heritage homes tour at the end of May. McCullough said Irving House has undergone many changes through its history,

with each one representing the social status of the family and the products available to them.

“The physical stature of the house also offers us an enhanced understanding of the broader socioeconomic trends at play in New Westminster during the late 19th and early 20th century.

This is apparent in its original Gothic Revival architecture as well as the introduction of rich French-style finishes when New Westminster was experiencing rapid expansion and economic growth following the arrival of the CPR,” he said.

“When the restoration work of Irving House is complete, there will be no other example like it in British Columbia.”

Community How to overcome your built-in negativity bias HEALTHWISE

editorial@newwestrecord.ca

The human brain has a natural negativity bias.

Regardless of how hard our parents and teachers may have tried to encourage us, our brains have evolved to tune in on the negative.

This made sense in a savage world when danger lurked around the corner of the cave and we needed to fit in with the rest of the tribe.We were designed to detect potential danger.

That’s why we notice what’s wrong – with our environment, with others and our selves.

And that’s why almost every marriage – unless both partners work against this tendency – can degenerate into endless complaints and mutual dissatisfaction over time. Psychologists (and doctors) recommend that for every critical comment you make, you have to say five positive things to balance it out.

This not only helps you see the best in the other per-

son (making you happier with the deal you have), but it makes the other feel more appreciated and happy as well.

This goes for your own self-talk. If we allow our inner monologue of self-criticism to take hold, our mantras will be: “I’m not good enough,” “My life sucks” and “Something’s wrong with me.”

Only after we have shone the light of compassion upon them can we challenge these core beliefs and assumptions.

One of the most common false assumptions is that we are completely separate individuals who have to compete and fight to get ahead.

One of the key determinants of physical and emotional health – and therefore, happiness itself – is our sense of belonging – our connection with our community.

Yet most of us go through our lives as distinctly separate individuals.

Siblings compete with one another (as do spouses).We begin our lives in school focused on individu-

al achievement (or failure).

In sports, we compete with an “us versus them” mindset.

Competition spreads to every part of adult life.We compete for jobs to earn more and get ahead.We compete for our homes.

We fight traffic in our daily commutes.What is traffic?

Other people.

We compete as we compare ourselves with others, and we judge others – just as we know others are judging us – by the clothes we wear, the cars we drive and the symbolic prestige of particular mundane items of utility – phones, shoes, purses and watches.

When we follow this mainstream way of thinking, the natural conclusion is we all lose. By the end of this life, you will lose all you have gained. Everything you have built will one day be gone, and in a few generations, your name will be forgotten.What is the point of it all?

The inescapable truth is this: you are not a separate, independent individual; you are a global citizen interde-

pendent with every other person on this planet.Your well-being is dependent on the well-being of others.

The “me against the world” and “us versus them” story disconnects us from others and dehumanizes them; they become objects in the way or objects to be used. In reality, we have more in common with every other being on this planet than we realize.

We each have hopes and dreams, pain and pleasure, joys and sorrows.We experience the same range of emotions and we are all subject to illness, misfortune, aging and death.We can unconsciously adopt maladaptive core beliefs and get stuck in narrowed points of view, yet we each have the capacity to change and grow.

The big problems of our society and the world will never be solved by people – and countries – looking out for themselves. As long as we see one another as separate and competing individuals, we will continue to see abuse, crime, homelessness, hunger, terrorism and war.

Separation: The mindset of competition, with a focus on individual achievement or failure, carries with us through our lives from the classroom on, says Dr. Davidicus Wong. Wong says that mindset fails us when we forget that we are part of an interdependent, connected whole. PHOTO ISTOCK

When more of us realize our interdependence and connection with the global community and all life on this planet, we will see the positive evolution of humanity and life on Earth. It begins with us.Together let us be the change we wish

Opera house hosts bell tower fundraiser

The stage manager was the former Royal Engineer, Lewis Bonson.

The show was to commence at 7:30 p.m.; tickets were 50 cents each, with reserved seats being $1; and tickets could be purchased at Lyal’s Book Store on Columbia Street.

A followup article about the fundraising evening of plays and music said it had been a great success and reported “the anticipation of our citizens respecting the production of the play on Wednesday evening last was fully realized, and a very large audience was thoroughly entertained.The principal characters by Mr. Fisher and Mrs. Moresby were well sustained and did them infinite credit.The farce Poor Pillicody was very well put on the stage and elicited much merriment.”

And so “a handsome sum” was added to the bell tower fund.

In April of 1888, New Westminster was enjoying the arrival of spring, and much local attention was directed towards the completion of a project at Holy Trinity Church that would see the erection of a new bell tower.

There had already been much fundraising for this project, and the town’s newspaper was promoting another cultural evening of theatre and music, the proceeds of which would add to the funds still required.

A note in the paper pointed out this performance was to be presented by local amateurs “from whom we look for great excellence.”

It was also noted the bell tower “when finished will once more delight us with the sweet sounds of our beautiful peal of bells and will also be a very great ornament in the city.”

The evening’s entertainment was to take place at Herring’s Opera House on Carnarvon Street, situated across the street and not far from Holy Trinity and its new bell tower.

The program was “the highly exciting and realistic drama” The Seven Clerks, followed by the “very laughable farce” Poor Pillicody.

During the interlude between the plays, the advert noted, “two of New Westminster’s favourites will sing” – Messrs. Keary and Rickman.

The advertisement noted the characters of the plays with some of the names: Claud Darnaud, Simon Sigger, Adolph de Briancourt, Victorine, and Captain and Mrs. O’Scuttle were among the 16 characters. Another list noted the players, many of whose names were well known in the city.They included Fisher, Glover, Harvey, Moresby, Falding, Hill, Homer and DeWolf Smith.

Business Pacific Blue Cross backs new mental health centre Theresa McManus MOVERS & SHAKERS

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

Pacific Blue Cross is contributing $100,000 toward a new mental health and substance use wellness centre at Royal Columbian Hospital.

The centre, currently under construction as part of the redevelopment of Royal Columbian Hospital, is anticipated to provide 75 mental health beds, state-ofthe-art patient care and increased psychiatric training for caregivers. It will also include Fraser Health’s first older adult psychiatric unit, a psychiatric high-acuity unit and new and expanded outpatient clinic replacing the aging 30-bed Sherbrooke Centre.

“With our new mental health centre, we are creating an ideal environment for patients that is inviting, soothing and spacious,” said Jeff Norris, president and CEO of the Royal Columbian Hospital Foundation.

“With its major investment, Pacific Blue Cross is making a meaningful and healthy difference in the lives of British Columbians and helping to set the stage for mental health care for decades to come.”

Through the Pacific Blue Cross Health Foundation, the company supports organizations that help improve outcomes in the area of chronic disease and mental illness.The company’s approach to social responsibility was established through input and construction with its employees and the community.

“Since 2011, the Pacific Blue Cross Health Foundation has supported more than 150 non-profit organizations working to improve health and well-being in British Columbia,”

Pacific Blue Cross chair Richard Taylor said in a press release. “We recognize the significant impact the new mental health centre will have on patient care throughout the region.”

The mental health and substance use wellness centre, set to open by 2020, is part of Phase 1 of a multiphase $1.3-bilion development of Royal Columbian.

Luke is intelligent and mischievous, and has not had a lot of training or guidelines so far. We are looking for someone who will provide him with fun, force-free training. Luke gets mouthy when frustrated or too excited so homes with children will not be considered. Also, Luke’s dog social skills need some major work. He is reactive when he sees dogs, and rude during introductions. While Luke could live with a confident female dog, he will do best in an environment where he won’t have to run into other dogs all day, every day. A home with a fenced yard would be ideal to give him safe off-leash time. No cats for Luke, please. He is neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated.

Schultz leaps to Commonwealth Games silver Personal bests continue to tumble as NewWestminster track whiz dazzles on the international stage

By Dan Olson

dolson@newwestrecord.ca

At 19, Nina Schultz has already been the talk of the town, the campus and a couple of nations. Add the Commonwealth to the list.

The New West native put down a consistent performance wearing Team Canada colours last week, capturing the silver medal in the women’s heptathlon at the Commonwealth Games in Australia.

Along the way, the Kansas State University student-athlete registered a number of personal bests, including the final point tally of 6,133, which stood second to England’s Katarina Johnson-Thompson’s gold-winning 6,255 total.

Her point total was an improvement of over 100 points from her previous best mark, set a year ago as a member of Kansas State track team.

And while she came away with four new personal bests, Schultz underplayed her results while absorbing the whole international competition atmosphere.

“It was tough. I had some personal bests, but I also had a couple terrible results.

It was a rollercoaster,” she said. “I’m the youngest on the Canadian team, so I just wanted to come in here and have fun. On the first day, I wasn’t even nervous; I was just enjoying myself out there. I’m really happy I was able to experience this with my teammates.”

That she gave 25-year-old JohnsonThompson, who finished sixth at the 2016 Rio Olympics, a good run was a great achievement for the NCAA track star.

She collected personal bests in the 100-metre hurdles, with a time of 13,47 seconds, the 800m, in 2:17.40, the long jump, at 6.19m, and high jump, with 1.84m.

The long jump and 800m results were second-best in their events, while she finished fourth overall in the shotput and high jump. Schultz’s javelin throw was fifth-best.

“Nina had four heptathlon personal bests on her way to over a hundred-point personal-best score,” Kansas State director of track and field Cliff Rovelto said in a press release. “To come away with a medal of any type is pretty special.”

A university sophomore, Schultz entered the Games after finishing second overall in

the heptathlon at the NCAA Indoor track and field championships.

“It’s my first senior championships,” she said. “It’s great to get this Games experience under my belt. Coming in, I told my-

self ‘no matter what happens here, it’ going to be a really good experience to learn from for the upcoming Olympic Games.’”

She returns to the Kansas State campus to focus on the outdoor track sea-

son, where she looks to improve on the last year’s marks that saw her finish second in the NCAA, earning All-American honours in the process.

Former Hyack coach gets support from football community One-time coach, administrator with NewWest program paralyzed after surgery to deal with infection

By Dan Olson

dolson@newwestrecord.ca

When it came to impact, Ryan Leslie was a major provider during the start-up years of the New Westminster Hyacks football program.

The longtime coach, who joined the high school coaching staff a few months into the program’s rebirth in 2003, is currently in a Seattle hospital with lower- and upper-body paralysis.

New West Hyacks coach and program founder

Farhan Lalji said a visit on Saturday saw Leslie looking forward and looking out for his family.

“When we visited (Saturday) he was trying to be as stoic as he can and trying to look forward and make arrangements for what’s next,” said Lalji.

The paralysis followed surgery to relieve an infection located near his spine.

Married and a father to two young boys, Leslie was a big proponent of the Hyack program in its early years, said Lalji.

“I recall he was thinking of becoming a career coach and in the summer (of 2003) he went down to California to mentor under a coach at a big-time high school program there and that’s where he wanted his career path to go. … He came back in the fall and we asked him to join our staff and he was great for us.

“Right from the outset, he had exceptional knowledge of the game and for the details of the game but was still able to communicate to players in a simple enough

way that they could understand,” said Lalji.

He remained a part of the Hyack coaching staff until 2006, when a career change made early morning attendance at the coaches meeting impossible. At that point, he took on administrative duties with the New West youth program and applied his knowledge behind the scenes.

“He took it over and the youth program was certainly better for it,” said Lalji.

“He’s got very good computer and administrative

skills. He had a real good ability to rally the troops, and our youth program was as good as it’s ever been when he was in charge.”

A GoFundMe campaign was launched to help raise funds for his future needs as Leslie rehabs. Paralyzed from the chest down, he hopes to regain at least of his arms and hands and return to work at Amazon.

In the meantime, funds will be required to make his home wheelchair accessible, as well as purchase a vehicle suitable for his needs.There

could also be future healthcare costs that are not met by his insurance.

The fund has already exceeded $42,000 in four days. People interested in contributing can do so at www.gofundme.com/helpcoach-ryan-leslie.

“He’s a good man who impacted a lot of people, and I’m sad to see that this is going to be a life-change for him that is going to affect his family so deeply,” said Lalji.

Hyacks host camp, Forfeit first blemish for Hyacks NewWest squares off against undefeated Alpha on Friday at Mercer comedy in May Fun events to raise funds for kids

The New West Hyack football program has two events planned for May – an evening for grownups and a big day for the kids.

On May 4 they are hosting their sixth annual Hyack Football Comedy Night at Lafflines Comedy Club at the Columbia Theatre.

Supporters of the program, for $25, will enjoy a night of laughs with Steve Gillespie headlining the event.The annual night has become a staple in the club’s fundraising.

Tickets can be bought online at www.thecolumbia.ca, by email at elenieconomou@ live.com or at the door.

The program also has a fun day on-field planned for kids ages six to 13 at the fourth annual Travis LulayCody Husband Football Camp on May 13.

For $20, attendees get instruction from the B.C. Lions’ Lulay and Husband as well as other members of

the Lions, and Hyack football coaches, while receiving a T-shirt and lunch from Subway. Because the event falls on Mother’s Day, moms who bring their kids to the camp have an opportunity to win prizes. All proceeds go to KidSport New West.

“We always get a couple hundred people (at the comedy night), the acts are very good and people always have a good time,” said Hyacks head coach Farhan Lalji.

The combination of Lulay and Husband has been a great dynamic for the kids’ camp. Husband’s participation at the Mercer field event is extra special, since he is a product of the Hyack program, said Lalji. “(Husband) is our one guy in the CFL, and we’re really proud of his accomplishments. … (Lulay and Husband) will be coaching.Their names aren’t just on it. Last year Travis was right in there coaching the entire day.”

After just over two weeks of league play, the New Westminster Hyacks haven’t lost a game on the pitch yet.

They did lose one on the schedule, though.

Tuesday’s match-up against the Burnaby Mountain Lions is the lone blemish for the Hyacks, as the senior girls soccer squad had to forfeit due to a lack of players.

But it isn’t due to dwindling interest, New West coach Wayne McCarthy said.

“We didn’t have enough (players) to play so it turns into a forfeit,” McCarthy said in an email to the Record. “I’m not happy about it, but it may turn into a good learning tool for the kids who don’t update their at-

tendance or let me know that they’re playing.We have a sheet set up to track who will be there, and several players failed to update it the other day.”

A rare alignment of tests, school assignments, work commitments and injuries was a contributing factor; however, apparently none of the players were aware of the compounding absences.

Prior to that, New West’s record was a spotless 2-0 after last week’s 6-1 victory over the Burnaby North Vikings.

Although they fired four shots on goal in the opening two minutes, the Hyacks trailed 1-0 when a Viking capitalized on a turnover and beat goalkeeper Alia Homenuke with a looping shot from 20-yards out.

New West shook it off and continued to push the ball down field, with

Grade 11 phenom Nisa Reehal cashing in on a penalty kick, after being taken down in the 18-yard box.Three minutes later, Georgia Brydon counted the team’s second goal off a 15yard blast. Strong work in the first half from Linnaea Cassidy, Julianna Kemppi, Crystal Singh and Taylor Spong proved to be the creative spark.

In the second half, Homenuke stopped two early Burnaby shots before the Hyacks reclaimed the momentum, with Ava Lee netting the team’s third marker.

Sydney Smith, off a nifty left-footed shot, and Reehal, with a pair to complete the hat trick, rounded out the scoring for New West.

They go for a third win tomorrow (Friday), 3:30 p.m. against undefeated Alpha at Mercer Stadium.They also meet next Tuesday at Burnaby Lake.

Shasta’s McLean to compete for Canada

Shasta’s Declan McLean is heading to Colombia to compete for Canada at the 2018 Pacific Rim championships.

The junior trampoline athlete was among 31 people selected, including coaches and judges, to represent Canada at the international competition.

A student at Byrne Creek Secondary, McLean has worn

the Maple Leaf before, competing for Canada as a 13-yearold at the 2015 World Age group competition in Denmark, the 2016 Indo-Pacific gymnastic championships, and the 2017 World Age group competition in Bulgaria.

At last year’s Canadian Trampoline and Tumbling championships, McLean finished third in the junior men’s division.

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.
