Lacrosse community stunned by teen’s death Cayley Dobie

cdobie@newwestrecord.ca

The death of a young New Westminster woman on a Delta highway has unleashed a wave of grief in the local lacrosse community and beyond. Olivia Malcom, her boyfriend Jake and a friend were on their way home from a junior A lacrosse game in Ladner Saturday night when they pulled into a bus stop on the side of Highway 17A just north of Ladner Trunk Road. Olivia and her friend got out to look for something in the trunk.They were at the back of the car when a Jeep, travelling northbound on Highway 17A, hit them, according to RCMP. Olivia, 19, died at the scene and her friend, 20, was taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. Olivia’s family remembers her as the light of any event. “Her smile was pretty much infectious,” aunt Bonnie Dyrndahl told the Record. Dyrndahl said her niece was a kind, compassionate and considerate young woman. She was always willing to help out a friend or family member and never thought twice about volunteering her time, she added. Olivia’s impact on the community is obvious in the outpouring of support and messages of condolence from the community over the past few days. “Olivia was a shining light to all who knew her. Like the sun, her brightness was radiant and inspired positivity in those who were fortunate enough to have known her in her short time here. She was bigger than life and her lasting impact is undeniable. Her kindness will be treasured and celebrated by the New Westminster community and everyone else she touched,” read a message on a GoFundMe page set up in Olivia’s honour. The GoFundMe campaign is raising money for the Olivia Malcom Kindness Bursary Fund, which will help students pursue a postsecondary education. It has generated more than $60,000 since Monday.

Remembering a New West legend

Community mourns death of longtime volunteer and Canucks announcer John Ashbridge Theresa McManus

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

John Ashbridge is being remembered for his countless contributions to the community and the broadcasting industry. Ashbridge, 71, died June 5, just a few months after being diagnosed with cancer. A legendary broadcaster, Ashbridge worked in radio in Victoria and Australia and was a news director at CJCI Prince George, but is best known for his career at CKNW and the Western Information Network, where he was the director of a bureau that distributed news to radio stations across the province, including CKNW. “He was a mentor to everyone. If you canvass the radio industry or even broadcasting these days, everyone will say, ‘I worked with John,’” said longtime friend Belle Puri. “People who are still in the industry learned from John. He was a fabulous writer – never mind his presentation skills. He understood the importance of getting the story right, but was also very eager – get it out there as quickly as you can.”

Puri, who considered Ashbridge a mentor and a dear friend, said he’ll be remembered for his generosity, lack of ego and desire to help organizations and causes he supported.While he was never one who thrived on praise, social media was flooded with tributes to Ashbridge as news of his death spread. Ashbridge, who retired from CKNW in

2005 after a 40-year broadcasting career, was also well known as being the voice of the Vancouver Canucks and Vancouver Giants, having been the PA announcer at their games for many years. He also lent his distinctive voice and quick wit to Crime Stoppers ads, for which he was named Crime Stoppers International’s 2010 Civilian of theYear – the highest civilian award it bestows. Ashbridge and wifeYvonne Eamor moved from the Tri-Cities to New Westminster in 2004, with Ashbridge quickly immersing himself in city life and lending his time and voice to numerous events around town, including charity hockey games, Canada Day celebrations and the Seniors Festival. He also served on the City of New Westminster’s emergency advisory committee and recorded messages about the city’s emergency planning efforts and safety reminders, such as back-toschool, high water and fire prevention tips for the city-owned and operated radio station, 88.7 FM.

City tests park just for small dogs Theresa McManus tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

Small dogs now have a place of their own in Moody Park. New Westminster parks and recreation recently initiated a trial off-leash area for small dogs in Moody Park. The space is designed to provide a place where small dogs and their owners feel safe and enjoy the benefits of existing off-leash dog enclosures. JayYoung, the city’s manager of recreation services, said city surveys have found that two areas of the city – Victoria Hill and uptown – have a lot of small dogs. Having created an offleash area for small dogs in Queen’s Park two years ago, the city is now testing a similar concept in Moody Park. Dog owners are encouraged to complete the survey online or pick up a hard copy at the parks and recreation administration office in Moody Park.The surveys are due by the end of August. “At the conclusion of the survey, we will be able to make an informed decision about the future of the small dog area in Moody Park,” Young said. “We are asking people how do they feel

Small dogs: Ken and Catherine McEwen were among the dog owners who lobbied city hall to create an off-leash area in Moody Park. While their pooch Indio still enjoys visits to the off-leash area that opened in Moody Park in 2015, he’s unable to play the way he once was, having been attacked by two large dogs while walking with his owner in uptown New Westminster in 2016.

about the size of it? How do they feel about being inside the existing dog park? Would they prefer for it to be outside the existing dog park? Can it be outside the park? Those are the questions we are asking. Nothing

is set in stone.We don’t have an agenda.We want to serve these people and provide a safe place for them to bring their small dogs.” Staff will take a recommendation to the parks and recreation committee in

September. Last June, some dog owners presented a petition to the committee, calling for the creation of an off-leash area for small dogs in Moody Park. Uptown residents Ken and Catherine McEw-

en were among the residents who spent a number of years lobbying the city to create an off-leash area in Moody Park.While they were thrilled when the city opened an off-leash area in the park in 2015, they always supported a designated area for small dogs like their pup, Indio. “The majority of people are positive about it, other than a few improvements,” Catherine said about the area for small dogs. “It is very tiny and dirty, and the trees do need trimming underneath.” The McEwens have always encouraged the city to provide a separate area for small dogs in Moody Park. While big dogs aren’t all mean, Catherine said they can be rough. “Look what the two did to Indio by attacking him. He didn’t have any bite marks on him, no blood,” she said of a July 2016 attack. “They jumped him, twisted his body. Because they jumped him, they destroyed the discs in his back.” A survey about the trial small dog off-leash area – as well a survey about a new location for a downtown offleash area – can be found at www.newwestcity.ca/dogs.

Indio is still recovering after a devastating attack A local pooch is finally able to walk on his own – two years after being attacked by two large dogs. Catherine McEwen was walking her dog Indio along Sixth Street near Mercer Stadium in July 2016 when he was attacked by two large dogs. By the time she un-

tangled his leash, the other dog owner had fled with her dogs – leaving Indio seriously injured. “It paralyzed him,” McEwen said of the attack. “It destroyed three discs in his back and damaged three. He couldn’t walk.” Between surgery, hospi-

talization, medication and months of therapy, Catherine and Ken McEwen paid $23,000 to help Indio walk again. Because of the damage sustained in the attack, Indio can no longer squat or lift his leg to do his business. After their previous dog died, the couple wasn’t sure

about getting a new dog – but they couldn’t resist the spaniel-chihuahua mix they found at a rescue shelter in Indio, California. Until he was attacked, Indio loved his daily walks and playtime at Moody Park. Nearly two years after being attacked, Indio is finally

able to walk to Moody Park, rather than getting a ride to the park in a cart.When he gets to the park, McEwen said he’s happy to see his puppy pals, but he’s no longer able to play. “He can’t run, he can’t walk fast,” she said, “but he is alive and he is happy.”

Jackson returned to owners after being stolen Cayley Dobie

cdobie@newwestrecord.ca

A missing chihuahua cross snatched near the New Westminster SkyTrain station last week has been reunited with his family. Jackson, an 11-year-old Brussels griffon/ chihuahua was taken Friday near the station at about 6 p.m., according to a New Westminster Police Department press release. The small dog had been secured by a leash outside a store at 800 Carnarvon St. while his owners stepped into the store for a moment. By the time they returned, Jackson had been removed from his leash and was nowhere to be found, according to police. Officers searched the area and obtained video surveillance footage showing a Caucasian woman, about 40 years old, leaving the

area with a small dog in her arms. Monday evening, the police department announced it had located Jackson in Vancouver and that he was safe. He was promptly returned to his family in New Westminster. According to the New Westminster Police Department, officers are still investigating any criminal offences. There’s no word on whether the dog was located in the possession of the woman seen in the surveillance footage or why Jackson was taken. The Vancouver Police Department posted on Facebook that two of its officers had spotted Jackson on the Downtown Eastside. New Westminster police have not responded to the Record’s request for information.

Ashbridge ‘generous with his time’ Continued from page 1 “Very saddened to hear about the passing of John. I grew up knowing him as the voice of the Canucks, but that evolved into knowing him as the man who was dedicated to giving back to his community,” said Mayor Jonathan Cote. “He was generous with his time and on countless occasions shared his iconic voice to support different organizations in New Westminster. He will be missed dearly in our city.” Ashbridge also served on the Royal Columbian Hospital Foundation’s board of directors for nine years. “John will be greatly missed by all of us at Royal Columbian Hospital Foundation, where the sound of his legendary voice as he regularly walked into our offices indicated he

was here to offer his support again. He started volunteering his time with the foundation’s board in 2006 and completed a full term in 2015, including a stint as vice-chair,” said foundation CEO and president Jeff Norris. “He helped us thank donors, highlight the impact of their giving, and formed strong relationships with a number of our doctors, nurses and other health professionals.” Norris said Ashbridge continued to be a “fantastic ambassador” for Royal Columbian Hospital even after his term on the board came to an end. “He was very generous with his time and talents,” he said. “He always reminded us he lived close to the hospital and was willing to come by to help whenever we needed him. John was a donor to the foundation and a grateful patient, having been treated for a heart condition at Royal Columbian.The care he received led him to volunteer to visit other patients and offer them words of encouragement. He put his voice behind many projects at the foundation.”

Mayor to seek second term Theresa McManus tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

It’s not every day the mayor comes knocking at your door, but it could happen in the next few months. Mayor Jonathan Cote has announced he will be running in October’s municipal election and seeking a second term as mayor. He served three terms as a city councillor, before topping the polls in the 2014 mayoral race. “I have really enjoyed the opportunity to serve in this role in the City of New Westminster,” he told the Record. “It has been a really busy and exciting time in the city.To me I think there are a lot of things we are working on, a lot of challenges that still strongly motivate me to continue to put my name forward.” Cote plans to engage with residents and community groups in the coming months to develop a more detailed platform but plans to focus on three main themes: investing in community facilities; taking action and advocating

for housing solutions; and building a healthy, happy and inclusive community. “I think one of the big things I want to be taking on during the next term is focusing on some of the community facilities that we love in our community, whether that’s the redevelopment of the Canada Games Pool, completing the renovation work at the library or continuing the work we are doing to connect our riverfront,” he said. “Those are three big projects that will have some

very meaningful impacts to residents in the city.” While the city’s riverfront strategy extends from Sapperton to Queensborough, Cote said the really big opportunity in the next term will be linking Westminster Pier Park and Sapperton Landing as the Pattullo Bridge project moves forward. Cote said housing affordability is a big challenge in New Westminster and Metro Vancouver.While the city has taken a leadership role on housing in the region, he

said there’s more work to be done. “The City of New Westminster needs to continue be looking for actions and policies that we can do to help with these challenges.” While he’s the incumbent, Cote said he isn’t taking anything for granted and will be engaging with the electorate as much as possible during the campaign.To date, no other candidates have announced plans to run for mayor. “There’s no doubt my schedule is already very busy, but we plan to campaign as hard as we can, try and get out to as many doors and engage with as many residents as possible, to talk about the work we have been doing in the City of New Westminster and what we want to be doing moving forward,” he said. “I always love the door knocking part of the campaign because that is where you get to talk face to face to people and really hear what’s on people’s minds and be able to share my vision for the future of New Westminster.”

Trustee race crowded Cayley Dobie

cdobie@newwestrecord.ca

A sixth person has joined the race for New Westminster school trustee. Queensborough resident Gurveen Dhaliwal is the latest candidate to announce she is seeking a spot on the local school board.While not a parent herself, she believes schools are an integral part of the community and something “everyone should be invested in,” notes a press release. “I care deeply about schools, and we have the opportunity to make them more supportive, to increase transparency for families and to champion inclusivity. I’m committed to promoting mental health and wellness, fostering environmental stewardship, and increasing communication with families and students,” she said in the release. Dhaliwal would like to see the school board tackle enrolment growth in Queensborough through upgrades to Queen Elizabeth Elementary School and Queensborough Middle School. She’d also like to improve public engagement and work to implement the new curriculum. Born and raised in New Westminster, Dhaliwal is the current chair of the Queensborough Special Programs Committee. She works as a constituency assistant for Burnaby-Lougheed MLA Katrina Chen. Past work experience has been with Citizenship and Immigration Canada and Transport Canada. Dhaliwal is seeking an endorsement from the New Westminster and District Labour Council.

Opinion OUR VIEW

Empty New West playboxes a sad state of affairs There is a reason we can’t have nice things. It’s because people are too selfish, or perhaps too dumb, to understand how to deal with nice things that come our way. Take, for example, the four Live 5-2-1-0 playboxes that were provided free to the community through a partnership between the City of New Westminster, the New Westminster school district, Fraser Health, Royal Columbian Hospital

Foundation and SCOPE B.C. The playboxes can be found at Grimston Park, Hume Park, Moody Park and École Qayqayt Elementary School, and they are loaded full of toys and sports equipment for people to use. Well, they were loaded. Just days after the playboxes were set up, all the boxes turned up empty. That’s because people opened them, let their kids

Do the right thing and return what you took and let other people ... use them. play with the items, and then took off with all of the toys and sports equipment. Apparently, some people thought all this stuff was free for the taking. Now, all of the items will be replaced because backup

items were purchased when the project was set up. Organizers knew some things would go missing – just not everything only days after being set up. What’s inside the box is for borrowing, not for keep-

ing, and it should be returned to the box when not in use. If the toys keep disappearing, eventually the city will run out of items to refill the boxes, the city said. Come on, people. First, give your heads a collective shake.Then, do the right thing and return what you took and let other people – including families that might not have the money to buy some of these items – use them.

Just as important is the city asking people to consider donating items such as good condition balls, sand toys or other equipment to share if you no longer need them. The boxes are secured with a combination lock; you can get the code at www.newwestcity.ca/ healthy-community. Consider donating, because at the rate these items are disappearing, there won’t be much left.

City switches to lighter bill

New Westminster became one of the first municipalities in B.C. to sign up for B.C. Hydro’s Power Smart traffic light program in May. Staff estimated the city would save half a million dollars in electrical energy costs over 10 years after replacing its incandescent traffic signal lights with light emitting diode (LED) lights. Each intersection’s energy consumption bill was expected to drop from $72.12 to $11.54. “That’s quite a savings, when you consider the city has 69 intersections,” said Ralph Zbarsky, the city’s director of electrical operations. Besides being more efficient, Zbarsky said LEDs also last longer than incandescent lights.

Letters Don’t be so afraid of these homeless women Editor: (The proposed modular housing project in Queensborough) is the first of its kind, to take a small number of homeless women and put them in the centre of the village, with parks, schools, a community centre and transit. I thought I would have to wait a decade before anyone was brave enough to take this into the future. I am so proud of New West city council for standing up and showing courage with great foresight for the future. Isolation does not work. That’s what moving it to Fenton Street would be – the old way. Don’t be so afraid of these ladies. They won’t eat your kids. All they want is to be treated like a human being. They will be the eyes and ears to watch over the park. All these women can read. They were born here. I’m sure at the Union Gospel Mission, they have all seen the cover of last week’s Record. How do you think they feel? NIMBY is in every community. Keep going forward with this first proposal. I tip my hat to all of you, and you all get my vote. Marilyn Pitt, New Westminster

Homeless backlash sad Editor: I have to say that I am a little bit shocked regarding the backlash against the development of housing for homeless women in Queensborough. There is no threat providing disadvantaged women (or anyone) with housing. The only threat (to them and us) is to not provide housing. There is no reasoned argument to disallow such a development. These are desperate women who deserve a leg up, not hostility. I’m unclear as to how the implementation of this facility will in any way adversely affect the residents of Queensborough. I live basically across

the street and I welcome any new neighbours, particularly those that have had to recently live roughly. These women, given a chance, and some deserved dignity, need to be given an opportunity. They may well end up being important members of the community. So park your negative, misinformed attitudes. Everyone deserves a chance to rebuild themselves. It’s not easy in this economic environment. Sometimes things that happen in your backyard that you thought were detrimental actually turn into positive forces. Give them a chance for a future and stop being so selfish. Ian Franck, New Westminster

Not up to merchants to clean up after smokers Editor: Just read the letter regarding smoking at the Belmont Street parklet. I agree, it has turned into a giant ashtray, but it shouldn’t be up to the merchants in the area to clean it up (unless their staff is contributing to the mess). There are plenty of garbage cans in the area for smokers to clean up their own messes. Also, if the city has enough in its budget to put signs all over the place reminding dog owners to pick up after their dogs, there shouldn’t be a problem getting the bylaws enforced at Belmont regarding cigarette butts. Bylaw enforcement wouldn’t hurt on Columbia Street, either; it’s really disgusting, and the patch of grass ostensibly reserved for dogs to do their business is even used for cigarette butt disposal. Lisa Finnigan, New Westminster

Don’t need a lazy river Editor: With the replacement of the aging competitive legacy known as the Canada Games Pool comes the debate over lazy rivers as a swim-

ming option. Warm water pools for playing and learning are most definitely needed. The lazy river only accomplishes one thing – warm water. It cannot be used to teach swimming, it does not encourage true free play and has no flexibility in programming. You just sit in the flowing water and it does all the work for you – the Wally World of aquatics. A warm water pool allows CGP staff to provide an array of lessons and programming in a comfortable learning environment where kids like what they see and feel with the possibility they may chose a water sport (competitive swimming, synchronized swimming or water polo) over a ground-based sport. Not all kids want to play soccer, hockey, skating, etc., and need a choice. Just look to Moody Park swimming pool in the summer. No lazy river there. It is packed on sunny days (and good thing as the water is cold) with kids playing for hours – entertained by water, a few toys and huge imaginations (which are free, by the way). Let’s keep the competitive spirit alive in New Westminster and foster warm water learning and playing environments to give all youth an opportunity to enjoy water activities. Paul McNamara, New Westminster

Vote for prop rep Editor: To all Canadian citizens and, in specific, British Columbians, democracy is a delicate balance of freedoms, laws and responsibilities. We have an opportunity in the upcoming fall election cycle to vote. We as citizens enjoy the right, duty and opportunity to let our voices be heard about who we want to represent us and how we feel about important issues in our prov-

ince. Democracy, not unlike a garden, requires effort, nurturing and attention to details. We as good gardeners hope for a productive outcome and a bounty of fruit. To achieve that we must want a garden that works for all of us and in conjunction with our environment. Our shared provincial government requires active and involved members to guide our progress and continued health as a province and a country. Voting is the most effective way to contribute to our shared resources and health as a nation. So, let’s encourage everyone, young and old, to vote as if our country depends on it. Because it does. Vote for proportional voting in British Columbia. All votes should matter. Robert Petrusa, New Westminster

Fentanyl is a chameleon Editor: Re: Our View: Remind grads there’s no such thing as “good” drugs, Record, May 23. I wanted to take a few moments to thank you for your opinion piece and keeping the conversation alive about this very serious issue. Fentanyl is a chameleon-like impostor among drugs, and fentanyl kills. Used properly in a medical setting, it can be a very powerful anaesthetic; on the street, however, it is often so potent, a person never wakes up from it. I hesitate to use the term “overdose” because this suggests that there is in fact a safe dose. There is not. The statistics are staggering and the devastation overwhelming. We must not stop talking about this epidemic ,which is stealing the lives of our children, parents, friends and relatives. No one is immune. Miranda Vecchio, executive director, Charlford House Society for Women

The New Westminster Progressive Electors Coalition Society is off and running on the campaign trail but could get some more company along the way. At a nomination meeting on May 29, the group endorsed six candidates who will be running for city council and school board in the Oct. 20 municipal election.Three New Westminster residents will be running for council under the New West Progressives banner (Daniel Fontaine, Paul McNamara and Bryn Ward), while three residents will be seeking a seat on school board (Danielle Connelly, Lisa Falbo and Cyrus Sy). “We are extremely proud of the people we have been able to attract to run under the NWP banner this fall,” secretary-treasurer B.C. Lee said in a press release. “Our slate is made up of a majority of residents who have never been formally involved in politics at any level before.They come from a variety of backgrounds and neighbourhoods and are committed to improving our city and school system.” Founded in November 2017, the New West Progressives hope to shake things up at city council and school board, where the majority of elected officials were endorsed by the New Westminster and District Labour Council. “Our team of candidates plan to introduce some new ideas and a balanced approach to both city council and the school board,” NWP president David Halkett said. “Our search for a suitable mayoral candidate and additional school J U S TD LISTE

and council candidates will continue, and we plan to announce more details on that later this summer.” The New West Progressives candidates are working together to develop a comprehensive election platform that will be unveiled this summer. According to Fontaine, New West Progressives candidates will begin door knocking in the next week or so. Other candidates, including a mayoral candidate, may be added to the slate, but the group wanted to get moving on the campaign trail. Fontaine, one of the founders of the New West Progressives, said the candidates were given a few minutes to speak at the nomination meeting about some of the things they’d like to work on if elected. On the school board front, the candidates expressed a desire to improve engagement between the school district and parents and to find better ways to

use technology to engage with parents and students. Candidates vying for city council have expressed an interest in working with city staff on a number of initiatives, such as improving the city’s “patio culture” to enhance local street life.The group will also strive to reduce the amount of time it takes for people to get building permits. Fontaine said it currently takes an average of nine months to get a building permit approved in New Westminster. “It’s way better than places like Vancouver, but we think we can do a lot better,” he said. “We have committed, within the first term in office, to bringing New Westminster into the top five (in Metro Vancouver) in terms of processing times. That is something we will work with staff to facilitate.” While serving on the mayor’s task force on public engagement, Fontaine said he suggested the city work to introduce the 311 program in New Westminster

and will continue to push for that. Currently offered in the City of Vancouver, he said the program improves access to city hall by providing a single number for folks to call to access all departments at city hall. “With 311 you don’t have to remember any single phone number for city hall.You just call 311.They allow for multilingual services, so if you are ESL and you perhaps have difficulty speaking English, you can just call and they will provide that service for you in the language you are speaking,” he said. “It essentially opens up city hall 24-7. Although there are some apps that do that, this allows for extended hours for people to call in.When something has happened and you call in, you are given an actual ticket number, so you know from a customer service perspective what’s happening with that.You can phone back and check what the status is. It’s an incredibly popular service in the City of Vancouver.”

Home invaders found guilty Cayley Dobie

East Columbia Street

cdobie@newwestrecord.ca

Two men have been found guilty of charges stemming from a home invasion in Queen’s Park two years ago. The home invasion happened on July 6, 2016, in the 400 block of Queens Avenue. One person suffered significant injuries in the attack, but by the time officers arrived at the home, the suspects were gone. Because of the brutality of the incident, a considerable police effort was dedicated to the investigation by the New Westminster Police Department, according to a police press release. The day after the attack, the first suspect was arrested – Stephen Smith, who was 21 years old at the time. Smith, from Coquitlam, was charged with aggravated assault, break-and-enter, unlawful confinement, robbery and possession of property obtained by crime. A second suspect, 22-year-old Victor James of Port Coquitlam, was also arrested in connection

with the home invasion and charged with the same offences. Last month, Smith pled guilty to possession of property obtained by crime and two counts of attempted fraud. James also pled guilty to possession of property obtained by crime. Both Smith and James stood trial on the remaining charges, and, on June 2, they were found guilty of break-and-enter, aggravated assault, forcible confinement and robbery. “We are pleased with the outcome of this trial and are hopeful that the victim is able to find some closure

now that it is over,” said police spokesperson Sgt. Jeff Scott in the release. “We take violent incidents such as this extremely seriously, and we will leave no stone unturned to ensure that suspects who engage in these types of crimes are held to account before our justice system.We are committed to keeping this city and our citizens safe against those that would seek to do them harm.” Smith and James are expected back in court for sentencing on June 28.They remain in custody at this time.

City Lacrosse games postponed Continued from page 1 Businesses and associations touched by Olivia have all shared messages of support for the Malcom family through social media. The B.C. Junior A Lacrosse league postponed two junior A Salmonbellies games this week in the wake of Olivia’s death, and OxygenYoga and Fitness New Westminster, where Olivia worked, has shuttered its doors until June 11. The senior Salmonbellies will donate the proceeds from 50/50 sales from Thursday’s game (tonight) against the Langley Thunder to the GoFundMe campaign. Olivia’s family members will also be at the game selling raffle tickets for a chance to win a Malcom or Goodwin lacrosse jersey. Money collected will also be donated to the GoFundMe campaign. On what would have been Olivia’s 20th birthday, Sunday, June 10, a celebration of life is planned for 2 p.m. at Queen’s Park Arena.The City of New Westminster has donated the space and all are welcome to attend.

Remembered: Olivia Malcom was killed in a tragic accident on Saturday. She would have turned 20 on June 10.

“For the city to open up the arena for them, it’s just a reflection of how special the Malcom family is to this whole city and how impactful they have been within the community for their service,” Dyrndahl said. The New Westminster Minor Lacrosse Association has also cancelled all la-

crosse games on Sunday out of respect for Olivia’s family. “Words just can’t even explain how tragic this situation is, and I think the hardest part is just how impactful this one incident can be on, not only the family, but on a community that is just trying to stick together and trying to hold it together – how can we hold it together to be there for Bridget and Tony and Olivia and her passing and Jake and Erica,” Dyrndahl said. To donate, go to www.go fundme.com/OMkindness. Deas Island Traffic Services and the Integrated Collision Analysis and Reconstruction Service continue to investigate Saturday night’s crash. The driver of the Jeep remained at the scene. Alcohol is suspected as a factor, according to police. Investigators are looking for any witnesses who have not already spoken with police to contact Deas Island Traffic Services at 778-2902400, quoting file number 2018-1802. Anyone with dash camera footage is also asked to contact RCMP.

QUEEN’S PARK HERITAGE CONSERVATION AREA OFFICIAL COMMUNITY PLAN AMENDMENT BYLAW NO. 8025, 2018 TO REMOVE PROTECTION FROM SPECIAL LIMITED CATEGORY STUDY PROPERTIES (PHASE ONE)

QUEEN’S PARK HERITAGE CONSERVATION AREA ZONING AMENDMENT BYLAW NO. 8024, 2018 FOR QUEEN’S PARK HERITAGE CONSERVATION AREA INCENTIVES PROGRAM PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

The proposed amendment to the Zoning Bylaw facilitates the implementation of incentives for protected properties in the Queen’s Park Heritage Conservation Area. WHAT IS BYLAW NO. 8024, 2018 ABOUT?

Queen’s Park Conservation Area Map

The proposed amendment to the Zoning Bylaw would rezone all properties in the Heritage Conservation Area (see map) from Single Detached Dwelling Districts (RS-1) or Single Detached Dwelling Districts (Small Lot) (RS-5) to Single Detached Dwelling Districts (Queen’s Park) (RS-4). Properties within the Heritage Conservation Area which are: 1) already excluded; OR 2) zoned Single Detached Dwelling Districts (Heritage) (RS-6) will not be rezoned by this Bylaw. Through the new RS-4 zone, all protected properties (also titled “Queen’s Park Advanced Category House”) would have: 1) an increased Floor Space Ratio from 0.5 to 0.7; and 2) the ability to transfer more unused density than currently permitted, from the principal house to a laneway or carriage house, to allow a laneway or carriage house of up to 958 square feet. These are two incentives identiﬁed through the Incentives Program. The proposed change in zoning would not result in any changes in the zoning regulations for nonprotected (“Limited Category”) properties. The approach of rezoning all properties allows for the ﬂexibility for properties to change categories within the Heritage Conservation Area, when required. For further details on the proposal, please visit www.newwestcity.ca/heritage/qphca

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

Through the Queen’s Park Heritage Conservation Area policy development process, 85 properties were identified for further study. These properties formed a temporary heritage protection category called “Special Limited”. Through the study process (October 2017-June 2019), these properties will be reclassified as either protected (“Advanced category”) or non-protected (“Limited category”). Reclassification is based on individual analysis of the property’s heritage merit and development options. Phase one of the study is now complete. At this time, 34 properties have been identified for reclassification to non-protected. The remaining properties will proceed to phase two of the study and may be reclassified at a later date. WHAT IS BYLAW NO. 8025, 2018 ABOUT?

As the Queen’s Park Heritage Conservation Area policy forms part of the City’s Oﬃcial Community Plan (OCP), removing protection from these 34 “Special Limited” study properties requires an OCP amendment. This bylaw would remove Heritage Conservation Area protection from the following 34 properties: 228 Fifth Avenue 408 Fifth Street 506 First Street 226 Fourth Avenue 229 Fourth Avenue 312 Fourth Street 326 Fourth Street 413 Fourth Street 116 Granville Street

223 Manitoba St. 425 Oak Street 321 Oliver Street 112 Regina Street 114 Regina Street 210 Regina Street 323 Regina Street 212 Second Street 215 Second Street

220 Second Street 402/404 Second St. 436 Second Street 523 Second Street 525 Second Street 122 Sixth Avenue 124 Sixth Avenue 202 Sixth Avenue 216 Sixth Avenue

116 St. Patrick St. 207/209 St. Patrick St. 232 Third Avenue 310 Third Avenue 230 Third Street 233 Third Street 312 Third Street

If this bylaw is approved, these properties would no longer have heritage protection on the existing house, but any new house built would be required to meet the Heritage Conservation Area’s design guidelines.

Students share vision for human body of the future The NewWestminster New Media Gallery is reaching out to the next generation of artists for an exhibition this weekend. Grade 8 students from Guildford Park Secondary School in Surrey are showcasing their vision of humans of the future for an exhibition this weekend at the New Media Gallery at Anvil Centre. An opening reception is set for Friday, June 8 from 4 to 6 p.m. in the atrium. The work will be on display through Sunday, June 10, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. The exhibition comes from students in an Inquiry Studies program, who used Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein as the inspiration to create two life-size human bodies taking a STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art

and mathematics) approach. After receiving a tour of the New Media Gallery exhibition CORPUS, which explored ideas around the human body of the future, students worked with professional artist Hannamari Jalovaara on their own interpretations. The young artists also took information gathered during an experimental session with modular technologies in the New Media Gallery’s Learning Lab to create their vision of what a futuristic human body might look like. Each body part was prepared by a different group of students, and the parts were then joined to create the two separate bodies that will be shown in the exhibition. “I think it was a pretty challenging task,” said

Jalovaara in a press release. “It challenged the students from multiple angles, not only to envision something that’s in the future, but envision modifications, and what’s going on inside the body and outside the body. That, to me, was really exciting.” Neal Michael, one of two co-teachers behind the project, notes that, with the implementation of the new B.C. curriculum, there’s a great focus on inquiry-based projects and work that emphasizes creative and critical thinking, communication, and social-emotional awareness. “This project has been a great experience for us to sew together the disciplines in a unique way,” he said. “The collaboration amongst the students, as well as with

New life form: Guildford Park Secondary School students have created new hybrid human bodies in an exhibition featuring their vision of a futuristic human body. Their work can be seen at the Anvil Centre this weekend. PHOTO CONTRIBUTED

Hannamari and the New Media Gallery, has been an amazing way for our kids to use real-world skills in bringing this project to life.”

Funding came from an Artists in the Classroom grant through ArtStarts in Schools, funded by the B.C. Arts Council and the Gov-

ernment of British Columbia’s Creative Futures program. Anvil Centre is at 777 Columbia St.

Major university hearing study seeks participants. Connect Hearing, with hearing researcher Professor Kathy Pichora-Fuller at the University of Toronto, seeks participants who are over 50 years of age and have never worn hearing aids for a hearing study investigating factors that can influence better hearing. All participants will have a hearing test provided at no charge. Qualifying participants may also receive a demonstration of the latest hearing technology. The data collected from this study will be used to further our understanding of hearing loss and improve lifechanging hearing healthcare across Canada.

Why participate in the hearing study?

Hearing problems typically result from damage to the ear and researchers have spent decades trying to understand the biology behind hearing loss. More importantly, researchers now realize the

need to better understand how hearing loss affects your everyday life*. In this new hearing study, Professor Pichora-Fuller and her team are trying to find out how people learn to live with hearing loss and how new solutions could help these people take action sooner and live life more fully.

If you are over 50 years of age and have never worn hearing aids, you can register to be a part of this major new hearing study† by calling: 1.888.242.4892 or visiting connecthearing.ca/hearing-study. * Pichora-Fuller, M. K. (2016). How social psychological factors may modulate auditory and cognitive functioning during listening. Ear and Hearing, 37, 92S-100S. † Study participants must be over 50 years of age and have never worn hearing aids. No fees and no purchase necessary. Registered under the College of Speech and Hearing Health Professionals of BC. VAC, WCB accepted. 1. Cruickshanks, K. L., Wiley, T. L., Tweed, T. S., Klein, B. E. K., Klein, R, Mares-Perlman, J.

National Institutes of Health. (2010).

It is estimated that 46% of people aged 45 to 87 have some degree of hearing loss1, but most do not seek treatment right away. In fact, the average person with hearing loss will wait ten years before seeking help2. This is because at the beginning stages of hearing loss people often find they can “get by” without help, however as the problem worsens this becomes increasingly harder to do. For some people this loss of clarity is only a problem at noisy restaurants or in the car, but for others it makes listening a struggle throughout the entire day. By studying people who have difficulty hearing in noise or with television, we hope to identify key factors impacting these difficulties and further understand their influence on the treatment process.

Community PARENTING

The dilemma of dads and diapers Mommy’s

GROUNDED Bianca Bujan

During a recent visit to a family restaurant, as I stood in line waiting to place my order, a dad rushed up to the counter holding a cherub-faced child and hurriedly asked for the key to the men’s room. As the server at the counter handed him the key, the man asked if the men’s washroom had a change table and the server, looking perplexed, replied, “No sorry, we only have one in the ladies’ room.” Frustrated, the dad stormed away, holding his soiled child with his arms outstretched, as if the tot’s diaper were about to explode. I’ve often encountered restaurants, tourist sites and coffee shops that make toilet time tricky for diaper-dependant babes, but it hadn’t crossed my mind that find-

ing change tables would be even more of a challenge for the dads on diaper duty. Last year, a dad in a Calgary Dairy Queen was shocked to discover that he had no options when it came to changing his daughter while out on a father-daughter walk. In an interview on Global, he shared, “I’m going to a family establishment with my daughter (for some) daddydaughter time, so why can’t I have a place to change my kid’s diaper that’s safe and clean. I don’t think that’s too much to ask.” My social media feeds are often filled with photos and videos of dads having to change their child on stinky, stained, washroom floors, left with no other option when out with their child. And the idea of putting change tables in men’s washrooms isn’t a new one. Back in 2015, Ashton Kutcher took to his Facebook page, stating “There are NEVER diaper chang-

C E L E B R AT I N G 22 Y E A R S !

ing stations in men’s public restrooms.The first public men’s room that I go into that has one gets a free shout out on my FB page!” With over 18 million followers, and over 11,000 comments (most of which listed spots that offer diaper change options for dads), Kutcher was definitely able to shine a spotlight on the issue, but there’s still a long way to go. We need to make change tables in all washrooms the norm, but one dad proposes taking it one step further. On The Good Men Project, writer Jonathan Church shared his thoughts on the problems with having changing tables in men’s restrooms, expressing his appreciation for the inclusion of change tables in the upgrades to the arena washrooms where he often attendsWashington Nationals baseball games, but he doesn’t think that merely adding a table is enough. In his story, Church de-

scribes his experience of having to change his infant daughter “in a crowded area between a sink and a row of urinals, pulling down a changing table attached to the wall, realizing that (he) was being forced to conduct, in a very public and very crude setting, what, in (his) view, should be a private affair.” I agree.We’re offered stalls with doors to do our business privately, can’t we offer the same option for our little ones when they “do the deed?” I’d love to see public spaces that are open to all parents, offering a chair, a table and a curtain for privacy. One that is accessible, clean, and inclusive. Changing diapers is no fun, but that doesn’t mean that the place where we perform the act has to be sh*&ty too.

Community Kelvin kids take on staff, cops in football fundraiser Cayley Dobie

cdobie@newwestrecord.ca

Students at Lord Kelvin Elementary School proved they’ve got moves on the gridiron last week when they faced off against school staff in honour of a former Hyacks football coach. About 30 Grade 5 students at the school took part in the lunchtime game, taking on staff with some help from Hyacks football coach Farhan Lalji and junior coaches Nick and Dave. The teachers, meanwhile, got a little help from New Westminster Police Department constables Gerald Lau and Dave Zemlack. The students didn’t let up and finished the game tied with the teacher team at 3-3. This first annual students versus staff football game was a special one, too, because it was held in honour of former Hyacks football coach Ryan Leslie. Leslie, who is married and a father to two young

s an experienced lawyer practicing corporate and commercial law; wills, trusts, and estates; and real estate transactions, Stephen Graf saw a good opportunity and opened up a boutique law ﬁrm in downtown New Westminster in January 2013.

My child is a thumb sucker… Should I worry about damage to his teeth?

Thumb sucking is natural reflex for babies and young children. This reflex is a source of comfort, as well as a coping mechanism in times DR. CHANTAL THERIAULT of stress. Most children naturally outgrow the habit by the time they start preschool. Long term thumb sucking, however, can have a negative impact on your child’s teeth (misalignment of teeth and jaws) and speech (may develop a lisp). The extent of the damage will depend on the intensity and frequency of the habit. Ideally, thumb sucking is eliminated before the permanent teeth come into the mouth. If your child is 5 or older, it is time to start working with your child on eliminating the habit. Positive reinforcement is often sufficient. If your child is struggling, talk to your dentist about ways to break the thumb sucking habit!

How do I choose the right kitchen cabinetry?

The right kitchen cabinetry can make your kitchen’s functionality, style and budget work: • Flip-up, pocket doors, corner drawers make cabinets more functional • Traditional? Modern? Country? Timeless MICHELLE DUPRÉ Shaker style is a sure bet for most styles • See all your finishes together from cabinetry to countertops, to tiles and hardware • Mix and match styles to make an even bigger impact. • Try playing with two different colors for cabinetry or contrast a single bright color with neutral finishes. • Distressed finish can offer a warm look that embraces wear and tear. • Clever inserts and accessories will make your kitchen comfortable and accessible for everyone who uses it. • Whether building or remodeling, keep consistent with the house style • Invest in a professional kitchen design plan

What are Lower Suction Dentures?

One of the most difﬁcult results to achieve in dentistry is suction and stability with complete lower dentures. Up until now we believed that suction on lower dentures was impossible and the only way to keep the lower denture stable was with denture adhesive or dental PATRICK MARCELO implants. The concept of eliminating the suction problem by creating a seal around the entire lower denture base has been spreading worldwide. The Lower Suction Denture Technique was developed by Dr. Jiro Abe in Japan. The technique enhances the suction effect of complete lower dentures and allows for denture suction even in patients with advanced shrinkange of the lower ridge. The newly developed technique for achieving effective suction and stability of the complete lower denture has become an indispensable part of treating patients.

What does “Exercise is Medicine” mean?

“Exercise is Medicine” refers to the fact that exercise therapy is very helpful in decreasing pain and increasing joint mobility. Exercise is a primary form of treatment for Osteoarthritis. In fact, JIM GOVETT regulated physical activity has been proven to be helpful in the prevention of up to 35 health conditions including cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, and dimentia. Some key points to consider when exercising include ensuring that your exercise program is tailored to your personal needs and preferences. Consider pool exercises if land exercises are too painful. A 6 to 12 week supervised exercise program is often helpful when getting started. Periodic “booster” sessions can be beneﬁcial over the long term. Finally, be prepared to modify your program when pain increases during ﬂare-ups. Information from: JOSPT Perspectives for Patients June 2018.

Community Kids colour their way to victory in heritage contest Theresa McManus AROUND TOWN

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

Local students learned about some of NewWestminster’s First Nations history in the HeritageWeek 2018 colouring contest. Mayor Jonathan Cote said this year’s colouring sheet was created by local artist P.J. Patten in support of the theme for Heritage Week 2018, Heritage Stands the Test of Time.The theme, selected by Heritage B.C., celebrates and honours the living memory of Indigenous heritage. “Inseparably woven through Indigenous identity and life, Indigenous heritage is conveyed through ideas, objects, language, artistic practice and the land itself,” he said. “Through the passage of time, cultural heritage endures, remaining essential and meaningful, and standing the test of time.” Patten worked with Chief Rhonda Larrabee of

Qayqayt First Nation on the development of this year’s artwork entitled “QayQayt means Resting Place.” “According to Chief Larrabee there is a legend that the wolf was created in New Westminster – the wolf is revered because it is a good hunter, mates for life and is very family-oriented.You must never make fun of a wolf or laugh at them,” Cote said. “The image shows a wolf standing on Poplar Island looking across to where NewWestminster’s downtown sits today.” Cote said the judges didn’t have an easy task selecting winners, as the city received hundreds of submissions from students across the city. “The enthusiastic response and quality of this year’s competition really highlights the superiority of our students’ colouring abilities over the mayor’s,” he quipped. “It was very incredible work. Good work everyone.” Among the kindergarten

crew, Ava Kerkhoven from Richard McBride Elementary took top spot, with Jancis Anne C. Nartia from Lord Kelvin Elementary placing second, Nahla Navarro from Queen Elizabeth Elementary getting third and Samara Longford from Richard McBride Elementary earning an honourable mention. Jayden Sall from Queen Elizabeth Elementary placed first in the Grade 1 contest, with Manha Rishard from Queen Elizabeth Elementary in second, River Boulton from Lord Kelvin Elementary in third and RowanVan Shellenberg from Connaught Heights Elementary getting an honourable mention.

Business S&O earns honours at Canadian beer awards

Winning awards, opening new breweries and drinking beer in the sunshine in Portland for research purposes – it’s all part of the job for the founders of Steel & Oak Brewing Co. Founded by New West residents Jorden Foss and Jamie Garbutt in 2014, Steel & Oak recently came home from the Canadian Brewing Awards in Halifax with a silver medal for its Baltic, which was voted one of the top beers in the Baltic Porter category. “We have never won at the Canadian Brewing Awards before so it was a big deal for us.We always seemed to do really well at the B.C. Beer Awards.We normally clean up there, but for whatever reason the Canadian Brewing Awards had always eluded us, so Jaimie and I were pretty excited to get to go to Halifax and win an award there,” Foss told the Record. A speciality release for Steel & Oak, the Baltic is a winter-style beer featuring licorice and chocolate notes. While it’s not available year round, it’s currently on tap at the tasting room at 1319 Third Ave. “We held on to some because it actually ages quite well,” Foss said. “Our plan was to age it and then re-release it around November/ December, but we thought because of the award we’d put it back on the shelf for a little bit just so people can have an opportunity to try it.” Steel & Oak is also working on a project with Burnaby-based Dageraad Brewing, which picked up a number of awards in Halifax, including the coveted Brewery of theYear.The two breweries are collaborating on a beer for the Farmhouse Fest that’s taking place at UBC on July 7. A day after the Farmhouse Fest, Steel & Oak is having its fourth anniversary party in the back parking lot behind the brewery. When contacted by the Record about the Canadian Brewing Award, Foss was in Portland, Oregon, where he was doing some research for another project that he and Garbutt are working on with Mike and Lee Spence, owners of The Drake Eatery in Victoria. “We are also starting an-

Woolen mill played a big role in city economy Archie and Dale Miller

editorial@newwestrecord.ca

Often when looking back to an earlier community, we take an overview with broad connections and miss out on the many day-to-day details. A number of interesting items stand out in a list of dates from the 1880s because of their role in New Westminster’s economy. Fabrics are important. You may not be aware of this, but New Westminster once had a woolen mill, and a description in the local newspaper in June of 1888 points to it being a successful enterprise. “Several looms are now running steadily and rapid progress is being made in the alterations and improvements to the other portion of the machinery so that the mill will be turning out cloth, to its full extent, in about a week or eight days.” This mill was located on

Front Street, back from the river, and seems to have attracted much attention over its life. The short newspaper article concluded: “The fabrics manufactured at this mill are very popular and in great demand, a market

Many families have stories connected to such items

is ready for every yard produced.This happy state of things is owing to the excellence of the material used and the care observed in its preparation.” It would be interesting to know if anyone in this city today has, perhaps in a family collection, an example of the product produced

all those years ago on the banks of the Fraser in New Westminster. When we think of older homes and the various furnishings that frequently come down to later generations, certain items stand out, including bedroom furniture of many styles and composition. A note in the paper in June 1888 refers to a supplier of such goods under the heading of “seasonable furniture.” “P Peebles has just received a large assortment of ornamental iron bedsteads – Birmingham manufacture – and Dominion wire mattresses, which he invites his patrons to examine. He has also choice sets of parlour and bedroom furniture, carpets, and etc.” Many families have stories connected to such items and maybe, just maybe, a few of these may have been acquired from Mr. Peebles in his downtown shop.

Native plants making a comeback in gardens Mark Cullen

Gardening with Mark

Early horticulturalists had a lot in common with Indiana Jones. Finding foreign plant species was a form of adventure for generations. David Fairchild was one, after whom the “David Fairchild Medal for Plant Exploration” is named, the highest honour for botanical explorers. Fairchild is credited with introducing us to more than 200,000 exotic plants and crops including soybeans, pistachios and mangos early in the last century. Indeed, we can thank plant explorers from the last 400 or so years for broadening available plant sources. Now there is a trend in the opposite direction. Increasingly, gardeners are looking for native plant varieties – generally defined as “species which existed in North America prior to European contact.” Discovering native plant varieties

opens our garden design to new possibilities. There are plenty of reasons why you should consider native species for your garden.They are generally well adapted to local insect populations.They provide sustenance to pollinators and are resistant to pests. Many generations of resistance help a native plant remain healthy without help from us. Non-pollinator wildlife often depends on native plants for food and habitat. Our native milkweed is a good example of this, as it provides habitat and food for Monarch butterfly larvae. Native plant species do not threaten surrounding natural areas.Those plants that are classified as “invasive” are almost always imports. Native plants are lowmaintenance. Given their adaptation to the local environment, native plants usually require no additional water or fertilizer supple-

ments after they have been established (that is, providing you have planted in the appropriate place according to the plants’ requirements). There is some debate among native plant enthusiasts about what constitutes a “native,” which is sometimes broken into three categories. Pure “native” typically refers to a species genetically consistent with what would be found in the wild. “Nativars” are selections made by plant breeders from the natural variation found in the species. Our hybridizing of native plants is how we end up with “purple coneflowers” (Echinacea purpurea) in colours other than purple. “Local genotype native” is grown from seedstock that is local to where you are buying it.The idea is that the local-genotype plant will be even better adapted to the exact conditions of its locale.

Coach Woodward retires after 45 years Maria Rantanen

editorial@newwestrecord.ca

Great friends, great memories and a few championships along the way. It’s been a 45-year journey for Doug Woodward as a teacher and coach at New Westminster Secondary School. Over the years, he’s coached football, track and field, and volleyball, but he eventually found his groove coaching girls’ basketball after seeing how it was done in Japan. Woodward travelled to New Westminster’s sister city in Japan, Akita, on a student cultural exchange program in 1979, and it was during this first trip that he saw their highly successful girls’ basketball program. He remembers going to their practice, entering the gym, hearing very loud mu-

sic and seeing more than 50 girls doing drills. He was impressed by the discipline and focus and the respect the youth showed their coaches. That inspired him to coach girls’ basketball at New Westminster Secondary. From then on, he took teams every second year to Japan, and every second year, teams from Japan came to New West. Over a career that has spanned five decades, he’s coached three generations of girls with daughters and eventually granddaughters of his former players coming through his basketball program. “We’ve had so many great players… that has kept me going,”Woodward said. “[As a coach] you see a lot of success – we loved win-

ning, we loved competing.” Seeing his former basketball athletes succeed professionally, grow as people and have families has made it all worthwhile. While Woodward liked coaching boys as well, girls are more expressive of their appreciation, he said, pointing to the walls of his office filled with birthday greetings, posters of teams and other memorabilia made by his girls’ teams. Woodward grew up in Burnaby and graduated from Burnaby South Secondary in 1967. He graduated from the University of Hawaii in 1972 and started teaching that same year at New Westminster Secondary.That year he also signed a contract with the B.C. Lions, but he played only one month before being injured and making the decision to

be in the gym teaching and coaching high school students instead. Woodward’s coaching style changed over the years as he gained experience and saw different teams coming through. “I was tough at the be-

ginning – later on, I started softening,”Woodward said. “My poor first teams. What I know now and what I knew then [is] night and day.” While his technical coaching might have been good in the early years, he

learned to focus more on defence and the team aspect rather than just individual players. Highlights from his coaching years include the Lower Mainland championship in 2001 when his senior girls’ team beat Argyle in the New West gym, as well as the 2008 junior girls Lower Mainland championship. Woodward has written his resignation letter a few times over the years, but it never left his home. But this past October, he was walking down the empty halls outside Massey Gym at New West Secondary and it clicked for him – it was time to move on. A retirement party will be held for Woodward this Saturday, June 9, from 2 to 4 p.m. at the Massey Gym at NWSS.

‘Bellies focus on family Maria Rantanen

editorial@newwestrecord.ca

The New Westminster Salmonbellies senior team beat Nanaimo and Victoria in their last two games, but both games ended with a very tight score. Last Thursday’s game against the Nanaimo Timbermen ended 8-7, and Sunday’s game in Victoria against the Shamrocks gave the ‘Bellies at 9-8 win. The game against the Victoria Shamrocks “tested the depth” of the team, general manager Dan Richardson said, as the team had just heard the news about the death the night before of Olivia Malcom, who was a part of the lacrosse community in New West. The ‘Bellies played their game missing seven regular players, three of whom were cousins of Olivia. “It was a really tough day on Sunday,” Richardson said, adding that although their focus is lacrosse, “life and family is way more important than that.” New West opened with

a goal within the first two minutes and would hold the 1-0 lead for the first half of the period, until Victoria started finding gaps.The first period ended with the capital city leading 5-4.The Bellies were able to retaliate in the third and scored three goals while Victoria scored one, with the period ending 7-6 for the Bellies.With even scoring in the third period, two goals apiece, the final score was 9-8 for the Royal City team. “We really tested the depth of our organization and the young guys really stepped up,” Richardson said.This included two goals by Lyndon Bunio, who was playing his first Western Lacrosse Association game. In last Thursday’s game against the Timbermen, scoring was sparse in the first period, which ended in a 2-2 draw.The first half of the period was a dry spell for both teams and it wasn’t until past the 11-minute mark that Nanaimo scored into the New West net. Within two minutes, Nana-

imo was leading 2-0. It took a power-play situation for the ‘Bellies’ Jordan McBride to finally get the ball past the Nanaimo netminder, bringing the score to 2-1.With another goal from McBride, the score was tied 2-2 at the end of the first period. The second period started as a déjà vu of the first with first two goals from Nanaimo, then two from New West. After a backand-forth between nets, the second period ended 5-5. The third period saw almost even scoring, but the ‘Bellies managed one more than the Timbermen giving them a slight edge and the win over the visiting Island team. With three wins and no losses, the ‘Bellies are at the top of their division. The Salmonbellies play the Langley Thunder tonight (Thursday) at Queen’s Park Arena. Game time is 7:30 p.m.There will be a moment of silence for Olivia Malcom as well as fundraisers for the Olivia Malcom Kindness Bursary.

Randy’s oldest daughter (the better one) Chantel Johnstone and granddaughter (apple of his eye) Mikaila Esmaiel and his youngest daughter (the cute one) Desiree Johnstone and his sister Cheryl Johnstone. Randy spent most of his life, 40+ years in the marine industry, working both ashore and on sea, mainly on tugboats on the BC Coast, Washington, Oregon and SE Alaska coasts.

He loved two things the most, the Sea and his Family. The sea was in his blood but he had lots of interests including golf, hockey, baseball and traveling as much as possible with his wife Corrine. Their thoughts were to travel now while they could, and they did. No more truer words were spoken. Randy was a kind and gentle soul. He was always willing to help others in need, no matter what it was. He had a sharp mind and a quick sense of humour. All will deeply miss his presence. You will always be in our hearts. May you rest easy in fair winds and calm seas our dearest Randy. We will miss you today, tomorrow and forever. A celebration of Randy’s life will be held on Friday June 8, 2018 at 2pm - 5pm at The Harris Barn, 4140 Arthur Drive, Ladner, BC.

WILSHER, Helen Arline January 17, 1919 - May 30, 2018 After a lengthy stay in hospital, Nana’s angels came for her in the early morning of May 30, 2018. She is predeceased by her husband of 58 years, Arthur (Art), brothers Jack and Ren Tetroe, and son-in-law Bill Radbourne. Arline is survived by her daughter Lynn, granddaughters Justene (James) and Stephanie (Pam), sister Shirley Stanley of Winnipeg, and many nieces and nephews. She was known as Nana to everyone and will be sorely missed by all who knew her. She was an active member of the Order of Eastern Star and Daughters of the Nile. A memorial service will be held in October. In lieu of flowers, donations to BC & Alberta Guide Dogs would be greatly appreciated. Dad’s been waiting for you for a long time - happy cruising.

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.
