White named to the Order of Canada The Order of Canada is getting 99 new members in 2018, including one from New Westminster.

Marjorie White is an advocate for improving the lives of Indigenous people in urban centres, notably through the establishment of friendship centres across the country When White left her reserve on Vancouver Island in the mid-1950s to pursue a nursing career in Vancouver, she never imagined what kind of footprint she’d make in the years that followed.

Shortly after arriving Marjorie White in the Order of Canada Lower Mainland and realizing there was no support for First Nations people migrating to urban centres, the New West resident helped establish the first aboriginal service agency in Canada.

From one friendship centre grew 24 more, making it the largest network of service-providing agencies in the province.White also helped create the National Association of Friendship Centres, which currently represents 118 groups and seven provincial and territorial associations.

She was the first aboriginal person appointed as a citizenship court judge in Canada, as well as the first woman and first aboriginal person appointed to the Vancouver police commission.

City looks at renoviction solutions Options include the city slowing down the time taken to process building permits in certain situations

Theresa McManus tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

Should the City of New Westminster charge apartment owners for costs it incurs related to renovictions?

Could it slow down the time taken to process building permits for apartments that have evicted tenants so they can do renovations?

Council received a staff update last week on New Westminster’s renovictions action plan, which was adopted in 2016 and includes a number of actions, including providing tenants with information about their rights and available resources, tracking renovictions and using stop-work orders and tickets in cases where property owners haven’t received the permits and approvals to do renovations.

The city knows of at least 215 units in nine rental buildings in New West that have been impacted by renovictions but acknowledges there may be others.

“As a council, we still have a lot of work to do,” said Coun. Jaimie McEvoy.

“The provisions that have been adopted by the provincial government are a good step forward but some of them are not really accessible to most people. I think a right of refusal to come back to a renovated place with a dramatically increased rent is just a provision that most people won’t be able to take advantage of.”

Since the provincial election, the NDP government has made some changes to

RENOVICTION PROTEST: Anti-poverty group ACORN BC has staged several protests in New Westminster to raise awareness about people losing their homes due to renovictions. PHOTO RECORD FILES

the Residential Tenancy Act, such as requiring landlords to give tenants four months’ notice to end tenancy for demolitions, renovations or repairs, and giving tenants the right of first refusal to enter into a new tenancy agreement at a rent determined by the landlord if the landlord ends their tenancy to renovate or repair the rental unit.The city has urged the provincial govern-

ment to allow renters the right of first refusal to return to their unit at a rent that is no more than what the landlord could lawfully have charged, including the allowable annual increase, if there had been no interruption in tenancy.

“The new provincial government has made some positive steps in the right direction, but they are half steps,” said Mayor Jonathan

Cote.

“One of the big things the City of New Westminster was advocating for is the right for tenants to be able to return at, if not the same rate then a reasonable increase.That is an important component that is missing from the changes, which I think is a critically important part of this discussion.

I think as a city we need to continue to push and advo-

cate on that.”

Cote said renovictions result in “huge volumes” of calls to city hall, and inquired whether there’s a way of requiring property owners to pay for those services, given that the city now has to assist residents put into “difficult circumstances” by renovations.

Staff will look into the issue.

McEvoy said the city can’t deny permits for ren-

ovations, but wondered if there are tactics the city could adopt internally as a way of being less accommodating and slowing down approvals of those permits.

Meanwhile, the city is still working on a plan to hire a housing and social services coordinator who could handle the increasing number of housing and social services inquiries to city hall.

The proposal is that the pilot project be funded by the province, as the city has taken on responsibilities previously handled by the provincial government.

In March, council endorsed a proposed pilot project for a housing and social services coordinator and directed staff to approach a neighbouring municipality to determine interest in potentially participating in the project. Staff hope to return to council with an update in the fall, after making inquiries to the province and Port Coquitlam, which has that’s been identified as a potential partner.

“It has a lot of rental housing, similar to New Westminster. It is a small municipality.We see a lot of similarities between those two municipalities so we will be reaching out,” said John Stark, the city’s acting director of planning. “The whole idea was that it could be done in New Westminster with a half-time position or … we could look at a full-time position that would be shared between two municipalities.”

New elementary school in five-year capital plan School district looking for land for possible ninth elementary school in NewWest Cayley Dobie

cdobie@newwestrecord.ca

It’s early days yet, but New Westminster might one day have a ninth elementary school if the school district can find suitable land for the project.

At the board of education’s final meeting of the school year, held last week, interim secretary-treasurer Teri Stoneman announced the district is in the beginning stages of a site-acquisition process – part of the district’s updated five-year capital plan.

The land would be used for a new elementary school that, once built, would be a fifth feeder school to Fraser River Middle School, according to the district.

“It’s a site acquisition in the Fraser River catchment area, where we see our new growth and new population coming in, and so it’s preparing to meet that demand in the

future,” she said at the meeting.

The district estimates that the project in its entirety would cost $50 million, with $25 million of that set aside for the land purchase.

There are currently four elementary schools that feed into Fraser River Middle School, including Lord Kelvin Elementary, École Lord Tweedsmuir Elementary, Connaught Heights Elementary and École Qayqayt Elementary.

QUEEN ELIZABETH IS NO. 1 PRIORITY The five-year capital plan also includes some good news for kids in Queensborough.

At the top of the district’s wish list is a 12-classroom addition to Queen Elizabeth Elementary School.

The project would also include a new gym and 15-per-cent neighbourhood learn-

ing centre space.

“Obviously that school and that area has seen some significant growth,” Stoneman said.

The district estimates the addition would cost $18 million.

Enrolment at Queen Elizabeth Elementary has seen a spike in recent years, with the student population expected to surpass 450 this coming fall.

To mitigate the situation, Grade 5 students were moved to Queensborough Middle School several years ago, and a number of portables were installed at the site.

Two additional portables are set to open in time for the 2018/19 school year.

By September, there will be a total of seven portables and two modular buildings at Queen Elizabeth Elementary.

Future projects ! Hume Park Elementary: seismic mitigation upgrade, $500,000 ! École Glenbrook Middle School: replace rooftop gas-fired airhandlers, $828,000 !

Progressives push patio platform

‘Fun City’ platform vows to increase number of patio spaces in the city and allow booze on the beach Theresa McManus tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

The New West Progressives are eyeing the offerings in places like Montreal and Europe as part of their Fun City platform.

The group, which is running candidates in October’s city council and school board elections, intends to put forward plans about consuming of liquor and encouraging a patio culture in New Westminster.

Having visited Montreal and European cities, council candidate Paul McNamara has seen firsthand how vibrant patio spaces can be.

“It gives it a great atmosphere.We’d like to try and push for that,” he told the Record. “Columbia Street, to me, is really like a mini Old Montreal.”

McNamara believes more patios will liven up the streetscape and draw diners from neighbouring communities who otherwise would head to downtown Vancouver to enjoy some patio time.

The New West Progressives also plan to take steps toward allowing people to consume a glass of wine on the beach and greenspaces of Westminster Pier Park by

PATIO CULTURE: The New West Progressives want to see the city look more like the streets of Montreal, which are dotted with patio spaces. PHOTO CONTRIBUTED 2019, something they say has been happening “quietly and illegally” in the city.

The group’s Fun City initiative includes a number of commitments: ! Set a target of increasing the overall number of approved patio spaces in the city by 25 per cent over five years, by reducing fees

and red tape. ! Develop a plan to increase police foot and bike patrols of Pier Park during the first year of implementation of a new alcohol consumption bylaw. ! Eliminate all permit fees so neighbourhoods can host one street party per calendar year in 2020.

! Encourage and support the establishment of an annual Car Free Day Festival, in collaboration with local business improvement areas and other community groups.

“As a former police officer, I know we need to take a balanced approach when it comes to relaxing our liq-

uor laws in the city,” McNamara said.

“However, I’m convinced our phased approach will help to demonstrate that we can introduce more progressive policies that help to build our brand through the region as a fun place to live, work and place.”

Eight empty grain cars derailed near Front Street last week.

The derailment happened just after midnight when cars jumped the tracks at the Front Street overpass near the Fraser River Bridge crossing.

Coun. Chuck Puchmayr, co-chair of the railway community advisory panel, contacted the Record around after 4:30 a.m. about the derailment and what cleanup efforts were underway.

“Heavy equipment is arriving to move some of the cars back onto the track and some may have to be cut up due to restricted crane access and wheel damage.

The bridge structure is sound and there is no release of any product,” he wrote in his email.

Because of the incident, Front Street was closed to all traffic for several hours.

It reopened shortly before 10 a.m., according to the New Westminster Police.

No injuries were reported and no hazardous materials were spilled.

Opinion OUR VIEW

Fixing casino money laundering isn’t enough

When the BC Liberals were first elected to run the provincial government in 2001, one of their campaign planks was to “stop expansion” of gambling because of its associated problems.

Once in power, however, that didn’t happen. Gambling has expanded at a furious pace in the years since, with several new casinos built, as well as gaming centres that mix bingo and slot machines.The reason, of course, is money. Casinos generate huge profits and the province gets a big, wet, juicy slice.

Whether people should be for or against casinos is not the point of this editorial – it’s how these casinos have been run in B.C. that is the problem.

As outlined in a 247-page report written by a former RCMP deputy commissioner Peter German, our province’s casinos have been used by organized crime to launder dirty money.

“For many years, Lower Mainland casinos unwittingly served as laundromats for the proceeds of organized crime,” German said.

It’s the “unwittingly” comment that we’re not so sure about.The report details the so-called “Vancouver model,” where organized crime lenders used mostly gamblers from China to take bags of dirty $20 bills to play in our local casinos, leaving with nowclean money that was later used to buy vast amounts of Metro Vancouver real estate.

These purchases then drove up the price of our local real estate.

In releasing the report, B.C. Attorney General David Eby said the province

will work to implement the report’s 48 recommendations to put a stop to the problem.

That’s good. So was commissioning the report to reveal the problem. But the people who turned a blind eye to the problem need to be held accountable for letting it happen.We don’t believe them when they say that a person bringing bags and bags of cash into a casino wasn’t suspicious.

The report details one incident at the Starlight Casino in New Westminster, when someone came in

with $3.1 million in cash – including $2.6 million in bundled bricks of $20 bills carried in inexpensive plastic bags.

Nope, nothing to see here, folks.

The BC Liberals were in power during this entire period, but when the report was released, the party sent out rookie MLA Jas Johal to face the music.

It wasn’t until later that BC Liberal leader Andrew Wilkinson finally stepped forward to weakly say that it’s a “sad exercise” to blame previous govern-

ments – this from the party that screams “Fast Ferries!” every election cycle.

BC Liberal MLA Rich Coleman was the minister in charge of gambling and it took him days to finally give interviews.When he did, he had the gall to trot out the “no government is perfect” excuse.

We’re not asking for perfection.We’re asking that our province not be sold out for quick casino cash to fill provincial coffers, leaving regular folks to pay the price with unaffordable housing costs.

MY VIEW KEITH BALDREY

Eby is navigating some tricky roads

David Eby hasn’t even been on the job for a year, but is already establishing himself as perhaps the most dominant figure in B.C. politics (aside from Premier John Horgan).

Eby is the attorney-general, yet his plate is filled with policies and files that extend well beyond the traditional scope of the province’s top attorney. And those files have far-reaching implications.

His recent release of a bombshell report on money-laundering operations in Lower Mainland casinos will have reverberations that could directly impact the future of both the BC NDP and the BC Liberals.

Eby must have known when he asked Peter German to conduct the investigation that the eventual findings would be explosive and cast the previous government in a horrible light.

The report effectively shredded the reputations of former key cabinet ministers and soiled the BC Liberal brand. By commissioning the report, Eby single-handedly inflicted more damage on the NDP’s archrivals than anyone could have possibly imagined just a short time ago.

If he opts to commission a public inquiry into money laundering, the BC Liberals could be on the defensive for months, if not years, to come (of course, there is no guarantee that a public inquiry would actually accomplish much; everyone involved gets a taxpayer-funded lawyer and things can grind to a halt over time).

German’s report suggested money laundering could be a major component in some of B.C.’s real estate markets. If Eby elects to delve into that area and turns up a lot of nefarious activities, the government’s balanced budget may begin to teeter.

That’s because real estate is a huge part of the B.C. economy and provides a giant chunk of revenue to government.

Eby is also in charge of the upcoming referendum on electoral reform. A switch to proportional representation would like cause the coalitions that effectively make up both the BC Liberals and the BC NDP to fall apart, or at lease rearrange themselves along different lines.

Social conservatives would likely quit the BC Liberals, and the tensions that exist between environmental activists and pro-job labour activists could cause those two groups to split.

Finally, Eby is responsible for fixing the financial mess that exists at ICBC. Our car insurance rates are likely to rise significantly, and Eby will navigate that tricky road with difficulty.

Put it all together and Eby is on his way to affecting housing prices, weakening his government’s balanced budget, determining our car insurance rates, laying the groundwork for changing the voting system, and therefore putting in doubt the fate of our two dominant political parties.

Sounds dominant to me.

Bomb plotter awaits fate A Queensborough man accused of plotting a bombing of the Trans-Alaskan Pipeline System to coincide with Jan. 1, 2000 andY2K fears was still waiting in April to find out whether he’d be extradited to the U.S. to face charges. Alfred Heinz Reumayr had allegedly plotted to buy oil, gas and electric futures contracts ahead of the bombing.Then, when the energy supply was disrupted, the worth of the contracts would jump, making Reumayr substantial profits, according to the alleged plan. A judge found the 52-year-old could be found guilty on attempted arson and mischief charges. It was up to the justice ministry to decide on his extradition.

Letters U.S. newspaper attack a sign of how our society is becoming more violent Editor: “They were doing their bit for local journalism. Day in, day out. Night in, night out.

They’re just doing their job,” said reporter Pat Furguson of the Capital Gazette, Annapolis, Maryland, following the attack and killing of five employees on June 28.

This should be chilling.

It used to be you could walk into most newspapers and broadcast outlets and head to the different departments, as I did as a student in Seattle.

Not anymore.

Today, most Canadian and American newspapers screen visitors and have them wait in the lobby.

Last Thursday, employees of newspapers large and small found out they may be attacked or killed by crazed people bent on violence. Copycats are the next loaded gun.

Angry letters to the editor used to be the most vitriolic response from a reader or subscriber.

The 2015 attack on the French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo in Paris followed by the killing of a reporter and photojournalist in Roanoke, Virginia changed that. The attack in Annapolis only reinforced it.

President Donald Trump is the only leader (besides despots) who enjoys attacking the press as “fake news” and even calling out individual journalists by name.

Before last week’s tragedy, I was surprised domestic U.S. journalists could ever be hurt or killed;

today I am not so sure with red hot anti-press rhetoric spewed by this president.

The overheated rhetoric from all sorts of people, from the right and the left (even in Canada as I’ve learned this past week), shows how people don’t know how to have polite conversation.

I suppose the shooting at the Capital Gazette (founded in 1772, four years before the Declaration of Independence was penned) hits closer to home for me.

As a longtime journalist, I was the reporter, then editor, of the weekly Gem State Miner, in Oldtown, Idaho, in the late 1980s.

After being hired, the publisher told me privately that I should “be careful” as a reporter in this largely rural area of small cities and communities of northern Idaho.

He cited the ultra-right Posse Comitatus, an antigovernment group in Idaho. The name comes from an 1878 law limiting the powers of the U.S. government using federal military to enforce domestic policies.

He didn’t need to tell me about the Aryan Nation, an anti-Semitic, neo-Nazi, white supremacist religious organization originally based in Hayden Lake, Idaho.

Locally on buses and the SkyTrain, people are edgier, mouthier, and confrontational, including attacks and the rare murder.

Some escalate after being called out after doing something wrong especially when no transit security are around.

City New Westminster bylaw officer wins B.C. award John Doebert remains humble after being named Bylaw Officer of theYear for ensuring the safety of a child in distress Theresa McManus tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

Every work day is a little different for New West bylaw officer John Doebert, but some days definitely stand out from the rest.

Doebert was driving along East Sixth Avenue next to the fire hall one day last year when he noticed a young girl decked out in head to toe pink next to the busy road. Looking to see if she was being accompanied by an adult, he realized she was all on her own and decided he needed to make sure she was safe.

“Just as I pulled over, she ran across two lanes of traffic over to Queen’s Park,” he recalled. “She wasn’t even running in the crosswalk. She had just bolted from one side of the street to another.”

Concerned for the girl’s well-being, Doebert did Uturn on Sixth Avenue and turned right onto McBride Boulevard, where the girl was running alongside the major thoroughfare at the

“She was like a Jack Russel on steroids,” he said.

“She was really running fast.”

Doebert, who has been enforcing the city’s street and traffic bylaws for 20 years, pulled up alongside

the girl.

“When I caught up with her, she was a quarter of the way down McBride and she was looking to cross in the middle of nowhere – four lanes of traffic,” he said. “I thought, ‘This is not going to happen.’”

Doebert put on the flashing lights of his city vehicle and approached the youngster – taking care not to scare her. He learned that Caroline, who turned out to be just five years old, had told her teacher that she wasn’t feeling well, but, in-

stead of going to the office so they could contact her mom, she headed home.

Doebert told his supervisor he had found a young child on her own and was taking her to her home at Victoria Hill.When no one was home at Caroline’s house, he spoke with a neighbour who knew Caroline and her family and, after ensuring everything was legit, allowed her to take Caroline back to school.

“The school got a hold of the parents. It all worked out.

I happened to be in the right place at the right time,” he said. “The parents wrote me a nice thank-you letter.”

That letter eventually made its way to the Licence Inspectors and Bylaw Officers Association of B.C., which named Doebert its Bylaw Officer of theYear at its recent conference. Doebert was shocked when he received the award.

“I am just glad that Caroline got home safe,” he said.

“It was never about getting an award. It was nice that I got it, but it was about get-

A father of two and a grandfather of five, Doebert said he sensed something was amiss.

“Once I saw there was no parent, I was worried.You could just tell by the look on her face that she was up to something,” he said. “I thought I better be safe than sorry. I would think this is one of the busiest roads in the city.”

New Westminster city council will acknowledge Doebert’s action and award at its July 9 meeting.

“Staff often go unrecognized for the great work they do every day, so we were delighted when we heard John was awarded Bylaw Officer of theYear and received the recognition he was due,” said Dave Cole, the city’s manager of engineering operations.

Royal Columbian Hospital FRASER HEALTH

CONSTRUCTION NOTICE Moving away: Kayla Bourque, 28, in an image released by B.C. Corrections Branch.

Bourque is leaving New Westminster to live in Surrey.

East Columbia Street from Sherbrooke Street to Keary Stre MAY TO MID-AUGUST 2018

What’s Happening

PHOTO CONTRIBUTED

Bird Construction is excavating East Columbia Street for a hospital IT and utilities pathway and for City power, now until mid August. Here’s this week’s update, and also see our notice about Keary Street.

Animal killer leaving New West Cayley Dobie

cdobie@newwestrecord.ca

Convicted animal killer Kayla Bourque is leaving New Westminster.

The 28-year-old is a highrisk violent offender who, in 2012, pleaded guilty to animal cruelty charges, including killing or injuring and causing unnecessary suffering and pain to an animal, as well as possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose.

She has a history of offending against animals and people, according to a pub-

lic notification.

She was released in 2013 but spent two additional months behind bars in 2015 for breaching the conditions of her probation.

Shortly after her release in September 2015, Bourque moved to New Westminster where she was eventually granted unsupervised trips in the community. Despite being allowed to move freely through the city, the New Westminster Police Department and B.C. Corrections Branch continued to monitor her activities in accordance with the dozens

of court-imposed conditions she had to abide by.

Last Friday, B.C. Corrections Branch and the Ministry of Public Safety and Solicitor General notified the public that Bourque was leaving New Westminster and plans to live in Surrey.

Bourque will continue to be bound by 43 court-imposed conditions, including abiding by a curfew between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. seven days a week, except for emergency medical treatments or with written permission of a probation officer.

Now through July the east (northbound) bike lane and east sidewalk of East Columbia Street are being excavated. Work is underway near Sherbrooke Street and will progress southward, in sections, to Keary Street.

Construction hours are 7am-7pm Mon. to Sat., except holidays.

Then from late July to mid-August the intersection of Keary Street and East Columbia Street will be excavated. Work will extend as far west as Pensioners Hall on Keary Street (north lane and north parking lane) and as far south as Browns Socialhouse (east parking lane and sidewalk, and northbound bike lane). Expect traffic delays and sidewalk disruptions.

Bird Construction will endeavour to minimize the construction’s impact, noise, dust, and disruption to neighbours in accordance with the City’s regulations and Good Neighbour Protocol. Thank you for your patience.

The Impact To You Drivers should expect delays, but two-way traffic will be maintained along East Columbia Street.

Drivers will share the northbound (east) lane with cyclists.

Please watch for bicyclists.

Sherbrooke Street will have single lane alternating traffic near the East Columbia Street intersection until late July.

Sidewalks will be closed to pedestrians in sections on the east (hospital) side of the street.

We suggest you use East Columbia Street’s west sidewalk (Sapperton Park side) to avoid as much construction as possible.

Until the end of July you may be detoured when crossing Sherbrooke Street on the east (hospital) side of the street.

For bicyclists, the east (northbound) bike lane will be closed in sections, requiring you to share the vehicle lane. Use caution.

Bus riders will notice stops temporarily moved for the 155 and C9 buses at times. Watch for notices at each stop.

Parking metres and the loading zone will be intermittently closed on Sherbrooke Street near the east side of the East Columbia intersection, in June and July.

Hospital visitors will always have access to the main entrance and Emergency driveways, but at times driveways may be disrupted or altered, or you may be directed to exit the hospital’s main entrance using Sherbrooke Street.

Please use caution Watch for signs, and please obey flagpersons who are there to direct you safely around the construction. And, please keep our construction crew safe.

6 things families can do together this summer School is out, and parents all over the city are facing that perennial question: “But how am I going to keep them busy all summer long?”

Never fear.We’re on the job for you, and we’ve rounded up our list of Top ThingsYou Must Do With The Kids In New West this summer. And let us assure you, there will be no excuse for boredom in this fair city of ours.

1

HIT THE PARKS. You can’t live in a city like New West, with so many gems of parks, and not enjoy them all.The real question is, which one will you hit first? Will it be Grimston Park, the West End favourite with its playground and wading pool? Will it be Queen’s Park, in the heart of the city, with its petting farm, playgrounds, picnic areas, splash park, playing fields and forest trails?

Will it be Westminster Pier Park, the waterfront hot spot with the playgrounds, Eats at the Pier concession, hammocks and beach volleyball courts? What about Hume Park, with the spray park, playground, playing fields, pool and always popular blackberry picking?

Or Ryall Park, the Queensborough gem with the ball courts, greenspace, playground and spray park? Or Moody Park, the uptown fun spot with the adventurous playground, pool and playing fields? Or the remodelled Sapperton Park with its wooden climbing equipment for all ages under those gorgeous big shade trees? Or one of the countless neighbourhood parks nestled into your very own corner of town?

Doesn’t matter, really.

Just pack up the kids and head out on the town.

2

RIDE THE Q to Q FERRY. If you haven’t hopped aboard to explore the other side of the river, then you should.Whether you live in Queensborough and use it to ride to the Quay, or you’re a mainlander looking for a way to explore the ’Borough, you’re in for a treat.The good news is, both sides of the ferry offer plenty of family-focused fun. On the Quay side, you can explore the boardwalk, the new Quayside Park playground, River Market and Westminster Pier Park.

On the Queensborough side, you can take a jaunt along the Port Royal riverfront trail, check out the community garden and play in the playground at Port Royal Park.

Tickets are just $2 for a one-way trip, or $1 for concession (seniors, people with disabilities, and children aged six to 18). Check out www.newwestcity.ca/qtoq ferry for all the details.

3

HEAD TO THE NEW WEST FARMERS MARKET. If you haven’t yet ventured out, just drop

by Tipperary Park (next to New Westminster City Hall) between 3 and 7 p.m. every Thursday. Not only are there a wide array of vendors – offering everything from organic and conventional produce to prepared foods and various artisanmade goods – there’s also entertainment, activities for the kids and a gorgeous green space where you can spread your picnic blanket and make an evening of it.

STROLL BACK IN TIME. Hey, when you live in the original capital city of British Columbia – a city named by Queen Victoria herself – then history and heritage are all around you. Check out the New Westminster Museum and Archives, on the third floor at Anvil Centre (777 Columbia St.), pay a call at the historic Irving House (302 Royal Ave.) or drop in to the Samson V (parked on the river at 880 Quayside Dr.) for a visit to the historic paddlewheeler.

Free family drop-ins are offered at the Samson V on Fridays in July, and at Irving House on Fridays in August, between 12:30 and 3 p.m.

Plus, the New Westminster Museum is bringing its pop-up museum to a variety of parks on Thursdays from 12:30 to 3 p.m. Check it out at Moody Park, July 5, Queen’s Park, July 12, Hume Park, Aug. 2 and Quayside Park, Aug. 9. Call 604-527-4640 for more on the city’s heritage spaces.

Jeopardy! winner reflects on long road to be on show Cayley Dobie

Only $2,888,888

cdobie@newwestrecord.ca

One New Westminster man has some extra cash in his coffers after a four-day run on Jeopardy.

Ali Hasan won more than US$69,000 on the popular game show that tests contestants’ knowledge of everything from pop culture to American history.

But the road to Jeopardy! wasn’t easy, according to Hasan.

The New Westminster father of two applied to be on the show two years ago.The application process is long and starts with an online test. If you pass that, then you’re eligible for an audition, Hasan explained.

“Then they draw your name randomly, and, if you get called, you get to go down to an audition,” he said.

Hasan’s name was drawn and he flew to San Francisco for the audition.There he had to do a second written test, participate in a few mock games and pass another round of interviews before his name was added to a second pool of prospective contestants.

“If they pull your name out, then you get called, and it could be anywhere from a few months to a couple years, which is when I got called – a couple years later,” he told the Record.

Hasan was notified three weeks before he was to fly to

California for the taping.To prepare, he decided to stick to subjects he struggled with, like American history.This strategy would serve him well in his first game where he was the only contestant to correctly answer the Final Jeopardy question: “In Nov. 3, 1948 he sent a congratulatory telegram, then told reporters, ‘I was just as surprised as you.’”

The answer?

“Who is Dewey?”

“I tried to get as much information in there as I could, but there’s only so much I could cram in,” Hasan said.

After his first win, he picked up some momentum, which carried him through the next three games – all of which were played in one day. (Jeopardy! films five days’ worth of

shows in one day, so Hasan actually played all four games in one day.)

“I liked it because you win and you just want to keep playing. I wouldn’t want to go home and worry about it till tomorrow.

I want to get going,” he laughed.

Hasan’s streak ended on the June 22 episode when he fell to Jordan Nussbaum, a lawyer from Ontario.

“I wanted to win at least one game, so I could say, ‘Yeah I won one,’ so winning three was nice. It was a really nice bonus,” he said.

As for what he plans to do with his money (once it arrives – it takes four months to be transferred), Hasan said he’s going to spend it on his wife and kids.

“I’m a family man,” he said.

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 and if appropriate, the clinician may discuss hearing rehabilitation options including hearing aids.

Qualifying participants may also receive a demo of the latest hearing technology. The data collected from this study will be used to further our understanding of hearing loss and improve life-changing 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

with hearing loss and how new solutions could help these people take action sooner and live life more fully.

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

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.

editorial@newwestrecord.ca

Raincity Blue hasn’t played New Westminster in a while but to make up for it, they’ll be playing two local shows this summer.

The band, which played

Fridays on Front Street last year, will be doing so again.

But first, they’ll be playing Music by the River on July 5 at 6 p.m.

Clare Twiddy, vocalist for the band, attributes playing the two events to possible connections between them.

“Either that, or people are really nice in New Westminster and they just kind of passed along our name,” she told the NewWest Record.

Community Sometimes parents just have to get out of the way Mommy’s GROUNDED Bianca Bujan

I’ve been that parent.The one who shimmies sideways with hands raised while my kid toddles along the platform of a higher-thanarm’s-reach playground.

I’ve shadowed my child as she’s navigated her way from bouncy duck, to teeter totter, to swing – ready to pounce if she loses her footing or doesn’t dodge the legs of a swinging tot in time.

Now that I’m on child number three, I’ve loosened the reins a bit. I’ve learned that no amount of hovering will keep my children out

of harm’s way, and I try my best to let them run free on the playground without my guided hand or dictatorial direction.

The reality is, as much as we’d love to bubble wrap our kids, having adults on the playground can sometimes hurt kids – literally.

Heather Clare, a New York-based mother of two, is sharing a chilling tale of what seemed like an innocent day of playground play with her then one-year-old toddler. Doing what many parents do, the mom slid down the slide with her daughter on her lap. As they slid, the child’s leg got caught between the mother’s leg and the side of the slide, snapping the child’s

leg in two.

The moment the child’s leg broke was caught in a chilling photo of the pair, and the mom shares the graphic capture on Facebook each year as a reminder to parents of the dangers that can result from sliding down slides with their children.

When Clare arrived at the ER, her doctor lectured her on the commonality of this type of injury, stating that it is one of the top-three reasons young children are seen in hospital during the

spring and summer months.

Clare hopes that by sharing her story, more parents will become aware of the potential dangers of sliding with small kids.

An article shared in Today’s Parent recently, titled “We need to stop worrying and just let our kids play,” exposes a new NewYorkbased adventure playground that has one simple rule: no parents allowed.

Looking more like a scrapyard than a place for play, Play:groundNYC appears at first to be unsafe

for kids. On the property is a scattering of brokendown stationary bikes, rusty warped wheels, scrap metal, broken planks, and a bunch of tires that sit in a haphazard pile. Also on site is a tool shed filled with hammers, axes and saws, available for sign-out should a child wish to try their hand at building.

Based on a trend that stems from Europe, the purpose of the 50,000-square-foot adventure playground is to encourage children to engage

in riskier play, emphasizing the benefits of self-directed play and the positive impact that can result from the absence of parents.

If we want our kids to be able to identify risks, the best thing we can do is just step out of the way. Perhaps implementing some adultfree playgrounds in our own backyard would be the best first step towards cutting the cord.

“It’s amazing to see the next generation starting to give back.”

Alex, Guest from Calgary, AB Alex grew up in a lower-income neighbourhood of Calgary and attributes much of his success to the role models in his community.

Now Alex is a role model himself, and with the strong relationship he’s built with his local Tim Hortons, he’s been able to give back in amazing ways, like organizing the world’s longest hockey game, which raised over four million dollars for Alberta Children’s Hospital. But no matter how much money he raises, the thing he’s most proud of is that he inspires the youth in his community to want to give back, too.

Thank you, Alex. And thanks to all those who make our community stronger.

Expect to hear more from Raincity Blue

Continued from page 14 excited to come back.”

Raincity Blue began twoand-a-half years ago, after Twiddy performed with saxophonist Kaylar Chan and guitarist Ryley Kirkpatrick at the Railway Club, when Twiddy’s opener had to drop out because of an emergency.

“We hadn’t met, hadn’t played together, and the chemistry was totally instant,”Twiddy said. “So after that night we started to rehearse and hang out more, and it kind of grew from there.”

Initially, they planned to form a jazz trio and play lounges, but then bassist Chantal Gauthier joined, and drummer Sheldon D’Eith.

“It’s got a lot more energy and funk and soul to it, and we write a lot of original music now,”Twiddy said.

“It really turned into something we didn’t expect at all but the chemistry, it works so well.”

Each band member’s in-

fluences vary drastically, she added.

“David Bowie to Chopin to B.B. King to Amy Winehouse to Snarky Puppy to Erykah Badu, so it really jumps around but that’s also something that we take into our music,” she said. “As much as we are a funk and soul and R&B band, we do a lot of different things with our music, which, I don’t think we want to be stuck to one genre all the time anyways.”

They released their first album, Stuck on Replay, last winter.The process of producing an album was more intensive than Twiddy initially thought it would be.

“I think we spent the first day setting up drums and mikes, and we maybe recorded one song, and we were there 10 hours straight, just setting up,” she said.

“By the third day, we finally settled in and I think we recorded about eight tracks, live off the floor.”

The band was also able to get grants to help them

with the project, according to Twiddy.

“They helped us out hugely in the process, and basically made it so we were able to afford the video portion of our project,” she said. “That was through Creative B.C. so they helped us out quite a lot.”

It’s got a lot more energy and funk and soul to it…

Raincity Blue intends to release EPs and singles over the next year, and they are planning another album down the road.

Music by the River takes place at Westminster Pier Park on Thursday, July 5 from 6 to 8 p.m. Raincity Blue will also be performing at Fridays on Front Street on Friday, Aug. 3 at 7 p.m., in the 600-block of Front Street.

Front Street the place to be on Friday nights Theresa McManus

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

You’ll soon be able to enjoy a laid back summer vibe and soak up the ambiance of Front Street.

Fridays on Front is returning for its second year, featuring food trucks, vendors selling artisan goods, live music and a chance to enjoy a glass of beer or wine while meandering along the street. It takes place every Friday from 5 to 9 p.m. from July 6 to Aug. 24 in the 600 block of Front Street.

“We are super excited to be bringing it back this year.

We felt the love last year,” said Kendra Johnston, executive director of the Downtown New Westminster BIA. “We are excited to up our game and try and give people what they want this year with more, more, more.”

Following last year’s inaugural run, organizers surveyed folks to see what they thought of Fridays on Front. In response to that feedback, Fridays on Front

TGIF: At right, Fridays on Front return to Front Street this Friday, July 6 from 5 to 9 p.m. Above, New West’s own Steel & Oak Brewery and Pacific Breeze will be there serving cold drinks. PHOTOS RECORD FILES

has extended its offerings by an hour and added more breweries to the mix.

“That was the theme of the feedback – more, more, more,” Johnston said.

“More choices, more things, more time.”

Pacific Breeze will be back serving wine at this year’s event and Steel & Oak Brewery returns with its popular brews.

“We have guest breweries coming in – they are rotating every week,” John-

ston said. “Steel & Oak will be the main brewery, as it’s obviously our well-loved hometown brewery, but we’ve got a different brewery coming in each week to offer some more options for beverages.”

Dageraad Brewing kicks things off on July 6, but Parkside Brewery (July 13), Central City Brewers + Distillers (July 20), Moody Ales (July 27),Yellow Dog Brewing (Aug. 3), Four Winds Brewing Co. (Aug. 10) and

Twin Sails Brewing (Aug. 17) will also be pouring at Fridays on Front.

In addition to enjoying a variety of entertainers, food trucks and vendors, attendees will be able to stroll the street – checking out local businesses and enjoying the relaxed waterfront vibe.

“It worked really well.

People would come by, spend an hour, have a beer

and then go off somewhere, have dinner, take a walk or whatnot,” Johnston said.

“It’s a different vibe than our larger street festivals. I think the businesses liked that because they felt they could make some real connections with locals.”

According to the BIA, last year’s Fridays on Front saw an average of 2,500 people each week.

“I would say the vibe is relaxed, fun and very local.

It really felt, and what we could tell from the feedback is, it was 80 per cent local people that came, which is also different from our large-scale events,” Johnston said. “It really became a destination for locals on a Friday night, a place to start your evening, meet up with friends. It was fun.”

You have worked hard – start enjoying life!

WHAT CAN WE EXPECT AT THIS YEAR’S EVENT? This year’s criterium race will follow a similar format, with a mass start launching the riders for 45 to 55 laps around downtown New Westminster.

WHAT’S IT LIKE FOR SPECTATORS? A press release from

the city states that cyclists will pass any given point along the route every minute – making it a thrilling experiencing for spectators.

“Last year’s race was a phenomenal experience for our community,” said Mayor Jonathan Cote.

ASK A DENTIST

Q A

What do I do if I knock out an adult tooth?

If an adult tooth has become dislodged, the first thing to do is find the tooth and make sure it’s clean. Apply pressure to the bleeding socket with a tissue or DR. AJAND NOBAHARI gauze. Place the tooth into a clean glass of milk or water and phone a dentist immediately. An adult tooth that has been dislodged can be re-implanted with some success, though timing is critical; the sooner the better! The tooth will be splinted to adjacent teeth to increase the success of re-implantation. After a few weeks of healing, the splint can be removed and stability assessed.

The tooth will need to be checked regularly to assess for any root problems. It is wise to prepare for the future replacement of this tooth with an implant, bridge, or denture since long-term success is unpredictable. If you have further questions, ask your dental team at your next visit!

Durante recalls winning ways

Salmonbellies retire No. 10 jersey in honour of 1976 Mann Cup MVP Dan Olson

dolson@newwestrecord.ca

The moustache may pop to mind, but when lacrosse people talk about Dave Durante they speak about intensity and his desire to win.

Durante didn’t like to lose.

The one-time New Westminster Salmonbellies great is being feted this week with the retirement of his No. 10 jersey, prior to tonight’s Western Lacrosse Association game against Coquitlam (7:30 p.m. at Queen’s Park Arena).

Throughout Durante’s WLA playing career – from 1971 to 1991 – he was instantly recognizable with his thick, dark moustache, rivalling those of baseball’s Mike Schmidt and hockey’s Lanny McDonald. He brought a steely focus to the floor, and as a five-time first team all star, Durante played the game hard at both ends of the floor.

By his track record, there were plenty more wins than losses, especially after the deal that brought him to the Royal City.

“I probably needed a bit of a change,” he said It was of the trade in 1980 that gratifying to sent the six-year veteran Coquitlam to New know someone from West. “It was kind of wanted you neat to think that a team and that you thought enough of you that they wanted to trade could make an for you, because it didn’t impact. happen that often back in those days. … It was gratifying to know someone wanted you and that you could make an impact.”

It was, to paraphrase a famous movie quote, the start of a beautiful relationship. In 12 seasons with New West, the team would reach the Mann Cup final eight times, winning it all in 1981, ’86, ’89 and ’91.

Add in the one where he picked up the Mike Kelly Memorial MVP award in 1976 – when the ‘Bellies added the Adanac star en route to a seven-game victory over Brampton – and the hardware shared with teammates was a special signature of a stellar career.

“I was pretty fortunate (in 1976) because I had played together with about four or five guys in junior.

Prior to going into senior I had played maybe five or six games as a junior callup with New West so I was familiar with the guys. It was special too because we won it on the road, which isn’t easy to do,” recalled Durante.

Their Mann Cup win in 1986 was also in Ontario, the last time a B.C. team has prevailed back east.

“That was a very special team,” remembers thencoach and general manager Casey Cook. “Durante was a great player, a two-way player for us and a guy who was an asset in the dressing room.We had a lot of great players on those teams.”

Growing up in east Vancouver, Durante played a lot of sports but didn’t seriously pick up a lacrosse stick until he was 18. He was familiar with the game because his father Ernie had toiled in the old Inter-City league, the preamble to the WLA. Younger brother Raymond also took to the game, and the pair would play together in Richmond, Coquitlam and New West. In 1971, Durante got his first taste of victory, leading the Roadrunners to a national title, beating Peterborough in seven games.

’Bellies add offence for playoff run

NewWest juniors add Jones, Kozevnikov with eye on outlasting Coquitlam Dan Olson

dolson@newwestrecord.ca

The wheeling and dealing is done – now it’s up to the players.

The New Westminster Salmonbellies enter the final weekend of the B.C. Junior A Lacrosse League season with an outside chance at first place.

While they trail defending champion Coquitlam by three points, a six-game win streak has New West feeling pretty good about itself.

Prior to Sunday’s trade deadline, the ’Bellies bulked up their lineup with a handful of acquisitions, from near

and far.

The newcomers contributed Tuesday in a solid 10-6 win over Langley.

Tre Leclaire counted three goals and three assists, including the game-winning goal early in the third period as New West broke open a 5-5 game.

Counting a pair each were Keegan Bell and newcomer Ryan Jones, while Taylor Jensen, Nathaniel Kozevnikov and Dalton Lupul also tallied.

Jones, one of the league’s top scorers, was acquired from Delta last week and will be vying for a second Minto Cup title, after being dealt last year to Six Nations.

Kozevnikov was picked up from Langley, along with Bobby Kidd III, for future considerations.

In two games with the ’Bellies, Kozevnikov has five goals, while Kidd chipped in two goals and two assists.

Coupled with the addition of speedster Tanner Poole from Barrie, the team has added depth to its left side and offence, with an eye on trying to knock off 16-2-1 Coquitlam.

“It’s always the goal to get to a Minto Cup but we’ve been running up against (Coquitlam) the last few years,” remarked NewWest president Walt Weaver. “We’re only get-

ting better with these players, but what’s going to hurt us is losing (Leclaire) for the next bit (to the world field lacrosse championships).”

Leclaire, who sits second in league scoring with 52 goals and 35 assists, will play for Canada at the Israel-hosted tournament, and isn’t expected back until July 23.

New West closes out the regular season on the road against two tough competitors – Coquitlam on Friday, and in Victoria on Saturday.

The playoffs are slated to start next weekend, with the ’Bellies drawing either PoCo or Victoria for a first-round opponent.

30 THURSDAY July 5, 2018 • New Westminster RECORD

Sports Durante’s No. 10 retired

Continued from page 29 proceeded to play a key role in the club’s resurgence and won the Ed Bayley Trophy as the league’s top rookie.

He followed that by topping the WLA scoring race with 49 goals and 62 assists over 24 games as a sophomore, picking up the Maitland Trophy for Outstanding Sportsmanship and Assistance to minor lacrosse.

The deal that brought him ‘back’ to New West – after playing in the club’s ’76 Mann Cup win, when teams were permitted to supplement their roster with other players for the national championship – came with little premeditation.

Cook recalls a discussion at a league meeting in 1980 with his Coquitlam counterpart, Sohen Gill, where he was asked if he was interested in Durante. He had to contain himself to not sound too eager, less to drive up the price It didn’t take long for a trade to be consummated.

Durante’s impact was almost immediate, helping the club to three straight Mann Cup finals – sweep-

ing Brampton in ’81.

An intense competitor, Durante’s reputation as a teammate and an opponent was less about East Van grinder as it was about a consummate battler.

“We got drafted in the same year,” recalls New West junior president Walt Weaver. “He went first overall (to Coquitlam) and I went second (to New West).

He was just a great talent, an unselfish player but a tough guy to play against.”

Durante’s career resulted in 698 goals and 1,017 assists over 600 games – including one season as a pro with the Quebec Caribous in 1975.

He took to the floor with and against some of the game’s greatest players. He said the two best he ever played with were Canadian Lacrosse Hall of Famers Wayne Goss and Brian Tasker. “(Goss) just had this ability to get into a position to score, to win a key faceoff and get a loose ball. (Tasker) was a consummate twoway player. He could check anybody in the league, he

could score goals like anybody and against any of the top players in the league, and he was as fit or fitter than anyone I knew,” he said.

The toughest player to play against? Durante said few could rival Victoria’s Kevin Alexander, a legendary sniper who dominated on offence for a decade.

“Kevin Alexander was probably the purest goal scorer that I played against or with. He was probably the most pure goal scorer to play the game.”

Weaver said there was always a determined purpose to Durante’s game, that he knew what it took to win.

Still, Durante’s image remains tied to that thick soup straining ’stache that made him look like someone the Philadelphia Flyers could embrace.

Asked if he can recall a season where Durante didn’t boast his trademark moustache, the junior lacrosse executive laughed.

“I can’t honestly remember if he had one in junior or not, but I’m guessing he did,” said Weaver.
