Is Team Cote a group of likeminded, independent candidates or an electors’ group tied to the NDP? It depends on who you ask. Incumbent Mayor Jonathan Cote said the six councillor candidates and five school trustee candidates joining him on Team Cote are “like-minded, but independent” candidates who have some shared goals they want to advance at city council and school board. He said they’re running as independents but will campaign together as Team Cote for the Oct. 20 election. Team Cote’s council contingent includes incumbents Patrick Johnstone, Jaimie McEvoy, Chuck Puchmayr and Mary Trentadue, and new candidates Nadine Nakagawa and Chinu Das, while its school board slate includes Anita Ansari, Dee Beattie, Gurveen Dhaliwal and Maya Russell, along with incumbent trustee Mark Gifford. “All of the candidates that are running with the group have been endorsed by New Westminster and District Labour Council. I guess that’s the organizational connection – all the candidates had applied,” he told the Record. “Certainly, the incumbent candidates that I have worked with on city council, I am very happy to continue working with them and continue to have them be on the team. I am looking forward to the new candidates, both on city council and school board, who I think are going to bring some new ideas and fresh perspectives to the group and team.” Continued on page 3

City ELECTIONS

Candidate fears record-low turnout by voters

Theresa McManus tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

Daniel Fontaine fears that a number of factors are creating a “perfect storm” that could result in a record-low voter turnout in this fall’s civic elections. Fontaine, who is running for city council with the New West Progressives, is calling on the Union of B.C. Municipalities and the Metro Vancouver regional district to take immediate steps to raise awareness of the Oct. 20 municipal elections. “There are now less than 50 days until Election Day, and we are simply not doing enough to increase awareness of the pending election,” he said in a press release. “I have been knocking on doors all summer, and I am struck by the number of citizens who have no idea it is an election year. It is not too late for agencies like UBCM and Metro Vancouver to support awareness-building campaigns both regionally and across the province. Protecting and promoting local democracy should be at the core of their respective mandates.” Fontaine cites a number of issues that could impact voter turnout, including the timing of this year’s election.

VOTER AWARENESS: Council candidate Daniel Fontaine wants more election promotion. PHOTO CONTRIBUTED Normally held in November, voters will go to the polls in B.C. on Oct. 20 – just a few weeks after Labour Day. He noted that the campaign is also taking place at the same time as a campaign about the proportional representation referendum, which is leading to some voter confusion, and at a time when candidates may have reduced advertising budgets because of new campaign financing legis-

lation that bans union and corporate donations. While the local turnout is often around 25 per cent, Fontaine said New Westminster bumped up to about 28 per cent in 2014, likely due to the “huge mayoral race” that saw incumbent mayor Wayne Wright, longtime councillor Jonathan Cote and two other candidates vying for the mayor’s seat.With no candidates having yet come for-

ward to challenge incumbent mayor Cote, Fontaine fears that could lead to lower voter turnout in New West. “We are only a few weeks away from an election and I don’t feel that the city has done enough to promote the election. I don’t think the region or the UBCM have done enough,” he said. “We are into a perfect storm.” Fontaine said he believes that information about the election should be included with utility bills (as has been done in the past with the TransLink referendum) and posted regularly on the electronic billboards in the city. If elected, Fontaine said he will support increasing the city’s budget to promote municipal elections. In 2014, the chief election officer who oversaw the election in New Westminster told the Record the voter turnout was up for debate, as it was either 32.5 per cent (if based on the 44,768 registered voters) or 28.46 per cent (if Census figures were used.) Either way, it was an increase from the 23.45 per cent (10,614 people) in 2011, 23.86 per cent in 2008 and the 25.84 per cent in 2005.

Final NWP candidate

Progressives finalize slate: New Westminster resident Ellen Vaillancourt is the fourth and final addition to the New West Progressives council slate. Vaillancourt currently works for the City of Vancouver in external relations and protocol, where she hosts delegations and diplomats and produces council-approved protocol events. Previously, she launched a series of private-label apparel manufacturing and consulting businesses after attending fashion school in Paris, before shifting her focus and working with Simon Fraser University on international development projects in areas of adult education for economic development and sustainable women’s empowerment initiatives. “As a proud and active citizen of New Westminster for 30 years, I could not be more eager to begin working with the New West Progressives to serve the residents of a city that has offered me so much,” she said in a press release. “With the committed group that they have al-

ready assembled, it’s clear the NWP are more than willing and capable of affecting positive change in our community and I can’t wait to get started.” Given the populism politics of people like U.S. president Donald Trump and Ontario premier Doug Ford, the Glenbrooke North resident said it’s important for the right people to be in politics right now – people who are there to serve the community. “My interest would be more culture and arts,” she told the Record. “I just love some of the things they have done with New West – with New Westminster Pier, things on Columbia Street, Uptown Live, markets. I just want to see more of that. “In Portland, there is something amazing in each one of the quadrants. I thought New West can be such an incredible destination city for something like that.” In addition to Vaillancourt, Daniel Fontaine, Paul McNamara and Bryn Ward are running for council with the New Westminster Progressives.

Team Cote plan criticized for going ‘hybrid route’ Continued from page 1 Cote, who is seeking a second term as mayor, said the ability to “work collaboratively as a team of independents” and engage directly with residents has enabled city council to deliver on key priorities for the community. In the 2014 civic election, candidates endorsed by the New Westminster and District Labour Council campaigned together, shared office space and teamed up on some advertising. “Each candidate is running as independents and will have their individual campaigns, but there will be some group materials and group efforts like a campaign office that we are going to share together – very similar to what we did in the last campaign,” Cote said. “I think the only difference is we have kind of branded under a single name other than that, it is very similar campaign structure to how we campaigned during the last municipal election.”

When voters head to the polls this fall, they won’t see the group listed as Team Cote on the ballot. “We are not an official party.There won’t be any name beside the ballots,” Cote said. “We did feel there was a need, particularly with political parties entering the fray, finding a way for us to find some common branding so people could connect the candidates that we are running with.” Daniel Fontaine, one of the founders of the New West Progressives electors group, said members of Team Cote are “running under the guise of being independents and they are not.” “They are all endorsed by the District Labour Council, they are all of the same political party provincially and maybe federally,” he said. “They are essentially an electoral organization – everything they are doing is acting like an electoral organization.To me, if you are going to be open and hon-

our campaigns.We have really done a lot of grassroots funding with individuals. The vast majority of my donations are under $200.” Cote said the group has debated whether it would be better to become more formally organized and form a party, but didn’t feel New Westminster has the appetite to move into a more partisan political party structure. “New West has a long history of having groups of candidates with shared goals work together. I think that system does work well, but having said that, when cities, particularly when they get larger, tend to move toward more organized political parties,” he said. “Whether New Westminster is at that point or not, I think remains to be seen.” Fontaine gave Team Cote credit for only including five candidates for school board, saying it allowed for a couple of individuals not affiliated with the New Westminster and District Labour

Council to get elected to school board. (While an endorsement from the labour council doesn’t guarantee candidates a win on election day it’s proven to be helpful in New West, where all seven current council members and four of the seven school trustees were endorsed by the organization.) While Cote would like to see all members of his team elected to council, he said he’s prepared to work with whomever is elected. “To me,Team Cote is something that we are going to use during the election campaign but after election day, if I am elected mayor, really my team is the people that the public of New West have elected to city council,” he said. “To me, I think ultimately whatever the public of New Westminster decides, it is incumbent on all members of council and the mayorelect to be able to work together to best represent the community and to work together collaboratively.”

Trustee running again Mark Gifford was elected school board chair during first term Cayley Dobie

cdobie@newwestrecord.ca

New Westminster school trustee Mark Gifford wants to “stay in school.” Gifford was one of two new trustees elected alongside five incumbents back in November 2014. Since then, he’s been a part of a number of milestones in the school district, including the long-awaited funding announcement for the New Westminster Secondary School replacement project as well as seismic mitigation funding for Richard McBride and Lord Tweedsmuir elementary schools. “I’m really proud of the work that the school board’s been able to do over the last four years.We’ve made real strides and in a number of different areas,” he told the Record. But the work’s not done yet, and Gifford would like the opportunity to stay on and continue the work he and the current school board started. “We’re in a good place.

Opinion OUR VIEW

B.C.’s foster kids deserve a much better future

If your child was close to graduating high school and we told you that there was more than a 50 per cent chance that they would end up on the streets, in jail or getting addicting to drugs – you’d want to take action, right? You’d be in a panic, right? You’d be raising the alarm with those around you that everyone needed to pull together to make sure those bad things didn’t happen to your child. And yet, when it comes to foster children who are aging out of the government

system, it’s mostly crickets from the public – even though these innocent kids face an uphill battle just to survive. The group Fostering Change is the one sounding the alarm about foster kids. The group says that in B.C., an estimated 45 per cent of youth leaving foster care experience homelessness and 70 per cent deal with the justice system within the first year of aging out. Fifty per cent of street-involved youth with drug issues have been in foster care at some point.

It’s mostly crickets from the public – even though these innocent kids face an uphill battle. You see, former foster care youth don’t have parents or family they can call when things go sideways, unlike other young adults, many of whom continue to live at home into their 20s. Fostering Change, which is part of First Call BC, is a child and youth advocacy coalition, and its members

held a recent event in Burnaby to teach youth leaving foster care about advocacy for their peers, asking for comprehensive and universal support for all kids aging out. Fostering Change put out a report in conjunction with SFU and theVancouver Foundation called Op-

portunities in Transition, which is an economic analysis of investing in youth leaving foster care. According to the report, many foster children move around every six months and get shifted from school to school, so they can’t graduate from high school. Only 32 per cent of youth aging out of care graduate from high school, as opposed to 84 per cent of the general population, while the university graduation rate for former foster children is one-sixth that of their peers.

The B.C. government recently implemented a program to waive tuition fees for youth who have left foster care to pay for their postsecondary education until the age of 27.While this is a good thing, Fostering Change said it’s not enough. More needs to be done to help children who are being victimized by a system they were powerless to avoid. For more information, visit fosteringchange.ca to see how you can be part of the solution.

MY VIEW KEITH BALDREY

No champagne corks quite yet Anti-pipeline activists may be doing handsprings over the high court ruling that quashed federal government approval of the Trans Mountain pipeline project, but they may want to wait a while before popping any champagne corks. In fact, they may never reach their ultimate goal of blocking that pipeline forever. That’s because there are only two federal political parties that have any hope of forming government in this country, the Liberals and the Conservatives, and both are staunch supporters of the expansion project. A close read of the lengthy judgment by the Federal Court of Appeal shows the court actually provided a road map of sorts for the federal government to get the pipeline project back on the rails. Much of the judgment is spent disposing of all kinds of arguments against the pipeline and actually sides with the federal government (through the National Energy Board) time after time, except for two issues. Of course, those two lapses – failing to consult meaningfully with First Nations and failing to include issues that arise from increased shipping tied to the project – are big ones, but both of them can be resolved to meet the court’s concerns, although it will clearly take some time. The ruling showed that while the NEB set up a good consultation process, it allowed it to become simply a note-taking exercise with

little two-way dialogue. Not good enough, said the court. It called for the government to engage in “dialogue meaningfully and grapple with the real concerns of the Indigenous applicants so as to explore possible accommodation of those concerns.” The government needs to simply show the court it made a genuine effort to deal with various concerns, and not simply compile a catalogue of them. The shipping problem may be more problematic – the court is rightly concerned about any negative impact that increased tanker traffic could have on the resident orca whale population in the Salish Sea. Technology continues to improve dealing with the problem of noise pollution (one of the chief threats to the orcas’ well-being). As well, because the NEB did not include shipping as part of the project, it did not spend much time on the orca issue. As chemist and blogger Blair King has pointed out, the pipeline project would add about 700 more tanker trips in an area that sees 23,000 ship movements a year. Arguments like that one will no doubt be part of the NEB’s next reassessment of the pipeline, which may placate the court. That should comfort whoever is running the federal government by then, which is a big reason those champagne corks may never ultimately be popped. Keith Baldrey is chief political reporter for Global BC.

People need to put the brakes on driving to save the environment

caught in a traffic tie-up between Hinton and Jasper that took us four hours to get through in sweltering weather. On our way through B.C., on one of the steepest inclines on the Coquihalla, going in the opposite direction was a tailback of vehicles that stretched about five kilometres at a dead standstill because of construction; many of the vehicles idling, people trying to stay cool in air conditioning on an extremely hot day. There are more vehicles on the road than ever and most still reliant on fossil fuels. Emissions are there regardless of the weather or time of year. I would love to be able to visit with my family or take a vacation across this huge, beautiful country without overt worry about my personal impact on the planet. It would be great to have a discussion about road trips and the 21st-century challenge to decrease emissions and about the transition to a clean energy future, its infrastructure and challenges. We cannot talk about fire without thinking about our need and use of water as well as the impacts of climate change on other species. I never thought I would miss seeing slugs, and “ah” that rich humid smell on those wet, wet Pacific Coast days when rain fell straight out of the sky in the summer replenishing streams, lakes and rivers; bringing water to all living things. I’m thirsty for more discussion about climate change. Jane Popowich, New Westminster

Editor: Re: Don’t view wildfires as an Interior problem, Record, Our View, Aug. 16 I appreciate your view that we can all be part of the solution in fighting climate change. Wouldn’t it be great to see a non-partisan pulltogether on climate change by politicians in collaboration with citizens, businesses and industry, as Canada’s strength is that we are a pull-together country. The opinion piece talks about There are more “travelling around this great provvehicles on the ince of ours.” In this time of dangerous road than ever. climate change, road trips and the emissions of vehicles is a different conversation. There are signs and fines for littering the highway and keeping highways safe, but no signs or fines about invisible greenhouse gas emissions that are having a negative impact on the planet. I have immediate family in different provinces. I’m committed to reducing my own carbon footprint and find it challenging to visit with family for as little impact as possible; air travel, although cheaper than ever, has high emissions and is not always the best option for various reasons. Passenger rail is currently expensive and limited. We recently returned from Alberta and were

City Slade-Kerr quits, Longtime trustees say goodbye Lalji to run again POLITICS

Stories by Cayley Dobie cdobie@newwestrecord.ca

Two more longtime New Westminster school trustees won’t be seeking re-election in the upcoming election. Trustees Casey Cook and James Janzen are the latest incumbents to announce they will be retiring from their positions on the school board effective Oct. 20, joining incumbent trustee Michael Ewen, who announced he was retiring after 39 years. Both Cook and Janzen said they are ready to step aside and are excited about the new candidates who’ve stepped forward in the race this year. “Twenty-five years is a long time, and I’m not getting any younger,” joked Janzen, who was first elected in 1990. “It’s time to move on to other things, and we’ve got some great people running on the team, so it seemed like a good time to pull the plug.” Cook agreed.

most important thing any trustee can do is listen and “be ready to compromise and accept other people’s point of view,” according to Cook. And Janzen agreed. “I’ll miss the give and take and the discussion at the board table, and actually realizing sometimes that other people had a good plan and maybe I should be listening,” Janzen said. So what’s next for Cook and Janzen? Cook’s plan is to focus on his roles in the senior-care sector. He is currently serving as president of the board at the George Derby Care Centre and as chair of Kiwanis Care Centre in New Westminster. Janzen, meanwhile, has plans to retire from his job with the Burnaby Public Library sometime in the next year. After that, he said he’ll be spending more time working in his yard, travelling with his wife, work on his cooking skills and maybe even take up piano.

The number of incumbent trustees running in October’s civic election is up to two. Trustee Kelly Slade-Kerr announced this week she would not be seeking reelection on Oct. 20.The decision not to run is both personal and professional, she wrote in an email to the Record. “When I began my term as trustee, I was working part-time from home. I am now practising law full-time and running a law firm that has grown to four lawyers and three staff members in the last 18 months,” she wrote. One of the driving factors in her bid for trustee four years ago was the long overdue New Westminster Secondary School replacement. In June 2016, funding for the new school was officially announced. “I am proud of the work accomplished in the district over the last four years, especially with respect to the NWSS replacement project.

… The district is now on solid footing with an incredible senior leadership team at the helm,” she wrote. LALJI WANTS ANOTHER TERM Meanwhile, trustee Mary Lalji announced this week she would be seeking a second term on the New Westminster school board. “There are issues that I want to keep working on, and four years will give me time to accomplish this,” she wrote in an email to the Record. Lalji was elected in June 2016 in a byelection prompted by the departure of trustee MaryAnn Mortensen. She beat opponent Dee Beattie in a close race, winning by 60 votes. (Beattie is running again.) Lalji and current board chair Mark Gifford are the only incumbents in the running for a seat on the school board so far.The Record is still waiting to hear whether trustee Jonina Campbell will run for a third term.

Arts & Entertainment Improv musical gives life to inner voices Julie MacLellan

jmaclellan@newwestrecord.ca

There’s a unique vulnerability in singing – in using your own body as an instrument and sharing what’s in your heart and soul with other people. Take that vulnerability and magnify it. Give an outside voice to your inner monologue – those thoughts and ideas and parts of ourselves that we don’t display in public because we’ve trained ourselves to keep them hidden.Then complicate it.Throw caution to the wind, throw away script and musical score, and just choose to perform wherever the moment takes you. In front of an audience. Live.With no do-overs and no take-backs. That place? That’s where Jennifer Pielak lives. And that’s where she’s travelling with her collaborator, pianist Peter Abando, as they launch their new experimental, improvised musical at theVancouver Fringe Festival. InsideVoices:A Musical in the Key of P is onstage at the Firehall Arts Centre Sept. 6 to 16. “It is terrifying. It’s like a rollercoaster,” Abando says with a laugh. “When you’re really scared, but you do it anyway, and then you realize you didn’t die; you didn’t get killed by the lion,” adds Pielak, echoing his laugh. “Then it’s exciting.” That, in a nutshell is what the whole world of improvised musical theatre is about. “Musical improv isn’t such a huge art form around here – or anywhere, really,” Pielak admits. Nonetheless, with her background in music, theatre and improv, it’s some$638,888

thing she’s always had a hankering to do. Five years or so ago, she started to dream about creating her own one-woman improvised musical.Then, last year, an opportunity came her way to make that dream a reality: the chance to take up an artist residency at the Anvil Centre and work fulltime on her project. She and Abando, who’ve been collaborating on projects for eight years, decided to apply – and got accepted. “It was an amazing experience to show up every single day, almost every day, and work all day on our creative stuff,” Pielak says, noting the residency allowed her to put all her other work aside for a month and concentrate on this one project. “I’m really grateful to the Anvil Centre for taking the initiative and helping artists.” Thanks to the residency, which took place in June 2017, they were able to workshop the musical for live audiences. “Initially it began as a one-woman improvised show, but it quickly became clear that it’s not – it’s a twoperson show,” Pielak says, noting Abando, at the piano, is as much a part of the performance as she is. “We wanted to have his voice heard, but his comes through the music.” As for what the show’s about? Pielak laughs that the whole thing “gets kind of existential.” The inspiration for Inside Voices, Pielak says, comes from “persona” work she was doing in therapy – exploring how we all have a core self, around which we have created personas at different times in our lives to help us cope. Imagine you gave voice to

all the inner monologue you go through in a day – starting from when you’re standing in front of your closet wondering what to wear, and journeying through all the mundane, emotional, silly and profound moments that you don’t usually share. Only now, instead of silencing those inner voices, you sing them out loud. “There’s some you don’t know are there because you’ve gotten really used to silencing them,” Pielak says. “Some are really loud. I find the inner critics are loud. Some are very positive, and those? Those can be quiet.” “They sort of whisper in your ear,” Abando adds. For InsideVoices, there’s no script and no musical score. Pielak and Abando come to the stage armed only with a willingness to abandon themselves to the moment – and, of course, a solid foundation of musical theatre training and experience.

“It’s like basketball players that are equipped with all kinds of plays they could potentially do,” Pielak says. Which plays get used, and which ones work, depends on the dynamics of the game and the players on the court – much as InsideVoices depends on the dynamics of the audience. “I think this is actually a trio,” Abando says, with the audience as the third player. They admit that a performance of InsideVoices can take all the energy they have. “Sometimes I feel like mentally drained,” Abando says. “There’s so much going on, it’s like your brain needs to take a giant breath.” Pielak agrees. “The feeling is similar after the show to a therapy session, but different. It does have a lot of catharsis and emotion. I do feel drained, I feel kind of satisfyingly tired.” If the show hasn’t gone as

hoped, it can be frustrating and emotional. But when it works? “Often, I feel a sense of awe for what just happened,” Pielak says. With days to go before opening, she admits she’s swinging back and forth between terror and excitement – but she’s decided to land on excitement.

6:00PM

Queensborough Community Centre 920 Ewen Avenue, New Westminster

OCP AMENDMENT BYLAW NO. 8042, 2018 207/209 ST. PATRICK STREET

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

This Oﬃcial Community Plan Amendment would return Heritage Conservation Area related protection to 207/209 St. Patrick Street. The protection on the property had previously been removed as part of the Queen’s Park Heritage Conservation Area Special Limited Study in June 2018. Protection is being returned at the property owners’ request.

WHAT IS BYLAW NO. 8040, 2018 ABOUT?

The proposed amendment to the New Westminster Zoning Bylaw would require a Level 2 (208 to 240 volt) energized outlet for all new residential parking spaces, excluding visitor parking spaces. WHAT IS BYLAW NO. 8039, 2018 ABOUT?

The proposed amendments to the DPA guidelines state that new commercial and institutional buildings with ten (10) or more parking spaces should provide 10% of these spaces with access to an energized Level 2 outlet. HOW DO I GET MORE INFORMATION?

Written submissions addressed to Mayor and Council may be sent prior to the closing of the Public Hearing. Attend: Poplar Island Room Queensborough Community Centre 920 Ewen Avenue, New Westminster Post: Legislative Services Department 511 Royal Avenue, New Westminster BC V3L 1H9

ZONING BYLAW AMENDMENT NO. 8040, 2018 ELECTRIC VEHICLE CHARGING INFRASTRUCTURE IN RESIDENTIAL BUILDINGS OFFICIAL COMMUNITY PLAN AMENDMENT NO. 8039, 2018 ELECTRIC VEHICLE INFRASTRUCTURE GUIDANCE FOR DEVELOPMENT PERMIT AREA GUIDELINES Access to charging at home is a key factor in the decision to purchase an electric vehicle (EV). The City recognizes that over time the majority of electric vehicle charging will occur at home, rather than ‘at work’ or ‘on the go’. As such, equipping new residential buildings with the capacity for electric vehicle charging at a level where a full charge can easily occur during the evening and overnight hours is prioritized and is key in the transition toward zero emission vehicles in New Westminster. To support infrastructure readiness for EV charging in residential buildings, an amendment to the Zoning Bylaw is proposed. While the majority of EV charging will occur at home, some provision for electric vehicle charging in new institutional and commercial buildings will also support broader adoption of zero emission vehicles locally. Adjustments to existing text in Development Permit Areas (DPA) guidelines are proposed, necessitating amendments to the Official Community Plan. Both of these Bylaw amendments recognize that it is much more cost-effective to provide EV charging capability at the time of construction in comparison to retrofitting a building to the same standard after completion.

New Westminster RECORD THURSDAY September 6, 2018 17

Community Here’s the story behind those blue dress uniforms Cayley Dobie

cdobie@newwestrecord.ca

When NewWestminster police officers stood shoulder to shoulder with colleagues from across the country, their royal blue uniforms were a splash of colour in a sea of black. NewWestminster police officers were in New Brunswick last month to pay their respects to two Fredericton police officers killed while on duty on Aug. 10. The royal blue dress uniforms worn by local police officers from time to time were introduced in 1989 after a campaign by members to create a formal uniform for the department, according to Chief Const. Dave Jones. “What we wore then were tunics, almost like a jacket. So it was a short tunic, and it was seen as being the formal jacket,” he said. The tunics were worn during formal occasions and when officers had to testify in court, but the members

were looking for alternatives to the tunic, so, led by Staff Sgt. David Sloan, they came up with a new uniform they felt better represented the department, Jones told the Record. “That’s when they developed the royal blue, which was meant to signify the city, so there was a bit of the city in it, and the department itself,” he added. When the department

It was driven by the membership

adopted the royal blue uniforms, there was no money in the budget to buy them outright, so members who wanted one – which Jones said was everyone – had to cover half the cost of ordering them, but no one minded. “We liked it,” Jones said. “It was driven by the mem-

bership; it wasn’t necessarily driven by the organization to create this.” And, even when compared to the iconic Red Serge worn by the RCMP, NewWestminster’s royal blue uniforms stand out, he added. Today, the royal blue dress uniforms are given to new police officers as part of their mess kit before graduation.They’re worn when the officers graduate from the police academy and during formal events like Remembrance Day, funerals and mess dinners. “They stand out different,” Jones said. “When you go to the graduation, we will stand out. And people comment quite often on that. It looks sharp, right? It’s different than the uniform; it just isn’t the same.” The police department’s senior officers also have administrative uniforms, which feature a blue coat and belt. Those uniforms are worn during semi-formal events.

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 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. 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 Have your say on the Pattullo Bridge project

Keeping traffic moving: The Pattullo Bridge’s iconic span over the Fraser River is scheduled for replacement, and public input sessions are coming up soon.

Construction and operation of replacement bridge ‘will not result in significant adverse effects’: report Theresa McManus

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

Work on the Pattullo Bridge replacement project is set to ramp up this fall. The public is invited to learn about and comment on the application for an environmental assessment certificate for the proposed Pattullo Bridge replacement project. In addition to an open house in Surrey on Tuesday, Sept. 18, an open house is set to take place in New West onWednesday, Sept. 19 from 5 to 8 p.m. at the Sapperton Pensioner’s Hall, 318 Keary St. According to a notice about the meeting, a 33-day public comment period on the application will begin on Sept. 6 (today) and end on Oct. 9. All written comments received by online form, fax or mail during this time period in relation to the application will be considered. Details about the project, open house and environmental assessment can be found at www.tinyurl. com/pattulloproject. The environmental assessment application includes reports on a wide

range of issues including traffic analysis, surface water and water sediment quality, fish and fish habitat, species at risk habitat, soil and groundwater, historical heritage and navigation. The report outlines the potential effects of the project and determines the significance of each of those issues and mitigation measures. “The environmental assessment identified potential environmental, economic, social, heritage and human health effects of the construction and operation of the project.Where possible, effects were avoided during project design.Where avoidance was not possible mitigation measures were identified that will address potentially adverse effects.With implementation of such mitigation measures, monitoring and follow-up programs and with sound communication and engagement the (Ministry ofTransportation and Infrastructure) has determined that the construction and operation of the Pattullo Bridge replacement project will not result in significant adverse effects.”

Enough with judginess over moms with tattoos Tatted dads still get to be ‘cool,’ but moms get shamed out loud for their body-branding decisions Mommy’s GROUNDED Bianca Bujan

As a biracial woman, adoptee and mother of three, I’m no stranger to social biases. So when I went for my long-awaited tattoo to celebrate an upcoming milestone birthday, I knew I’d receive mixed reactions. While I may have received the odd, “What will your kids think?” and “Aren’t you worried what it’ll look like when you’re an old granny?” – the responses so far have been overwhelmingly positive. When I heard that a Facebook Page called “Your Tattoos MakeYou a Horrible Mother” existed, which displayed slogans such as “Shun the Gun,” “Think BeforeYou Ink,” and “Moms Without Tattoos Have Children With Futures,” I thought it was a joke. Not only did this page discourage tattoos – especially on women who are soon-to-be or existing mothers – but it spread fictional conditions related to getting tattoos, such as “Fetal Ink Syndrome” (birth defects caused by getting tattoos while pregnant), “Tattoorettes Syndrome” (uncontrollable profanity as

a side effect of getting tattoos), and “Inkrage” (getting tattoos causes violent, aggressive behaviour). These conditions may sound like punchlines to tasteless tattoo jokes, but the followers of this page actually believed them to be true. Thankfully, after a petition ran on change.org, calling out the group as promoting hate speech, the page was shut down.

Decorated skin doesn’t dissolve the love of a mother The reality is, while we work towards becoming a more inclusive and accepting society, a stigma still exists when it comes to those with tattoos – and women, in particular, are at the receiving end of the bodybranding backlash. According to a survey conducted earlier this year, 29 per cent of males in Canada and 36 per cent of females in Canada have at least one tattoo. And while women exceed men in ink stats, it seems to be the women who suffer the most from the stigma that still exists. Instagram fitness star

Sia Cooper shared a photo in response to people who called her a “bad mom” for working out too much, and for having tattoos and piercings. Her caption read, “I’ve learned that the true ‘bad moms’ out there are the ones who constantly tear other moms down by judging them.” In a post on the site Café Mom that shares the ridiculous things that have been said to moms with tattoos, one mom shares, “My partner and I both have tattoos and piercings, but I’m the only one who has gotten shamed out loud for it. No one calls him a ‘bad dad.’” It’s time to stamp out the stigma that surrounds tattoos. Moms seem to bear the brunt of the shaming, and the judgment is unwarranted. Let’s stop misjudging moms with tattoos, and recognize that their ink is a symbol of courage, creativity and character. Ink or inkfree, all mothers are faced with a slew of biases, and it’s time for these biases to stop. Decorated skin doesn’t dissolve the love of a mother, nor does it reflect what exists on the inside. Bianca Bujan is a mom of three, writer, editor, and marketing consultant. Find her online at @bitsofbee.

Kids invited to build their own fun at Spare Parts pop-up Spare Parts Adventure Society is back with another pop-up playground event this weekend. The fun takes place Sunday, Sept. 9 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Grimston Park. A pop-up playground gives kids the opportunity to use donated “spare parts” such as fabric, PVC pipe, boxes and tires to build their own playground. Volunteers are on hand to

supervise and assist in cutting, but parents are encouraged to step back and let their children create on their own. The first Spare Parts popup playground was held in 2016 at Tipperary Park. Children at that event, and those since, have created forts, boats, tire swings, skateboards, mini-golf courses and more. The activities are free and

barrier-free, open to children of all ages and abilities. Another pop-up playground will follow on Thursday, Oct. 4 in Tipperary Park alongside the New Westminster Farmers Market. For more information, to donate materials or to sign up as a volunteer, see www. sparepartsadventure.ca.

Community OUR PAST

Tracing the story of a 135-year-old tragedy Archie and Dale Miller editorial@newwestrecord.ca

A grave marker in the area of NewWestminster’s Fraser Cemetery known as the Masonic section links to a story that is all the more interesting because of some poignant details. This story and marker feature the daughter of George Black, who was a well-known businessman on Burrard Inlet operating a hotel and butcher shop in the area known as New Brighton at the end of the much-travelled road from NewWestminster. The story took place in June of 1883, and the girl was 13-year-old Maud, much admired and wellliked, and a student at St. Ann’s Academy in New Westminster. On a particular day, blessed with beauti-

ful weather, a group of girls accompanied by a couple of sisters from St. Ann’s, went out to visit a farm near the Coquitlam River. A newspaper account of the day noted that the girls “enjoyed themselves with all the gladsome mirth of childhood.” Apparently, the girls went near the edge of the water to bathe their feet and one of them, a MissWard, ventured too far, got into deep water and sank. Maud Black went to her friend’s assistance and, as reported, “Miss Black, attempting to save MissWard, went down but never emerged alive.” JosephWise who happened to be nearby, hurried to help but could only save the Ward girl and when found, Maud was “beyond the reach of human efforts.” Maud’s body was taken to St. Ann’s Academy.

The newspaper story filled in much of the aftermath of the tragedy. “The scene at the Convent parlour, where the body was laid in a shroud, was very sad – the child’s father and mother, the sisters and the school children, standing round in the awful presence of death, it was pitiful.” Of the parents of the girl, the description of the gathering singled them out in saying: “Mr. Black bore his sorrow like a Christian gentleman and tried to console the others.The grief of her parents is too sacred for discussion here.” The funeral service was held at Holy Trinity, after which the procession headed off to the Masonic Cemetery in Sapperton where the interment took place. The gravestone for young Maud Black is still there to be seen in Fraser Cemetery.

Audiobooks for late summer Kate Sloan

editorial@newwestrecord.ca

September is a great time for one last road trip before the weather turns cool. Whether you are travelling for a short or long distance, an audiobook can help make the trip more enjoyable. My favourite audiobooks are those by people who talk about their lives and experiences.Try some of these titles, available from New Westminster Public Library’s digital collection via Overdrive. I Must Say by Martin Short is a funny, thoughtful and highly enjoyable listen, complete with the voices of his memorable characters, including Jiminy Glick and Ed Grimley. Martin delves

into his childhood as the youngest, most precocious child from a large family, his journey as a young actor into stardom, and gives his personal philosophy of life.There are entertaining anecdotes featuring John Candy, Steve Martin, Gilda Radner and more; however, the most touching part of this book are the stories and thoughts about his family and late wife.You are sure to laugh and cry. Tiffany Haddish may not be a household name yet, but she will be. In The Last Black Unicorn,Tiffany does not hold anything back from her troubled childhood and family struggles and somehow makes it funny. She details the hard work and thick skin she needed in the world of stand-up comedy and

now larger entertainment world.Throughout the book she displays her positive attitude and honesty for herself and others. Any book by David Sedaris is worth a listen. Last year, Sedaris released Theft By Finding, which details his observations from his private writings over 40 years. He makes his darkest, most embarrassing and mundane moments funny and astute examinations of life. His books are enhanced by his self-narration. A David Sedaris audiobook will make any road trip fly by. And remember it’s not too late to join the Adult Summer Reading Challenge.

How can a shareholder agreement (SHA) help your company? (Concluded)

Three months ago, I discussed what a SHA is and what one might state. Last month, I discussed two ways in which a SHA STEPHEN GRAF can help your company. This month, I will discuss two more ways. First, you can keep your SHA private. In contrast, your company must keep its articles available for the public to inspect. Second, making a SHA compels you to write down how you think your company is going to run. When you make a SHA, you spell out what you expect, so you ﬁnd out if the other shareholders agree. This column is legal information, not legal advice. If you or someone you know would like to make a shareholder agreement, please contact me.

ASK A PHYSIOTHERAPIST

Q A

Does it really matter what shoe I buy?

As a Physiotherapist, helping patients select an appropriate shoe type is often a large part of recovering from a lower extremity injury. Not only are there different JIM GOVETT types of shoes for different activities (e.g. running, hiking, or court sports), there are different shoes for different foot types. Some people have ﬂat feet (pronation), while others have high arches/rigid feet (supination). Different shoes are designed to correct for these foot types, by modifying the curve of the shoe (the “last”), the rigidity of the shoe, and the amount of medial arch support. People with a high arch should be looking for a more ﬂexible shoe, while those with fallen arches should look for “stability” shoes. A knowledgeable shoe salesperson will know what type of shoe is right for you. NEW WEST SPORTS MEDICINE B1-65 Richmond Street, New Westminster

What is a Partial Denture?

A partial denture is a plate with one or more teeth on it. Partial dentures are designed to ﬁt between those remaining natural teeth, much like a puzzle piece. The partial BRIAN KO may be a mix of metal and plastic or made complete of either material. A partial may also have metal clasps to help keep the denture in place to your natural teeth and serve as anchors for the denture. Partial dentures offer a removable alternative to ﬁxed bridges.

Q A

What is Young Onset Parkinson’s Disease?

Young Onset Parkinson’s Disease (YOPD) is deﬁned as a diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease between the ages of 21 and 40, although some studies include subjects up to age 50. YOPD accounts for 35% of all cases of ROBYN MURRELL Parkinson’s. In YOPD there is an increased risk of having an inherited form of Parkinson’s, but this is still only a small proportion of YOPD. The needs of those with YOPD differ from those with later-onset Parkinson’s. • People with YOPD usually experience a much slower progression of their disease. • People with YOPD are often able to live a full life after their diagnosis, including a full-time occupation and other activities such as sports and even, in some cases, giving birth to healthy babies. • Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) is an option you may want to explore.

ASK A FITNESS INSTRUCTOR

Q A

How do I get motivated now the kids are back in school?

Firstly ask yourself what are your goals and I’d recommend reﬁning this to 1 or 2 things, making it easier to achieve than having 10 different goals. What have you LUKE RAMNATH wanted to achieve the longest? What have you tried to achieve before and not succeeded at? Ask yourself if your goals are realistic, I do like to believe anything is possible, but don’t set yourself up for failure before you start! How long have we got?

ASK A DENTIST

Q A

Why does my dentist use a rubber sheet to cover my mouth during the appointment?

The rubber dam is a sheet of either latex or latex-free rubber used to isolate teeth. Holes are punched corresponding to the teeth being treated, secured to DR. HUANG a tooth with a clamp, and held taut with an external frame. This allows the dentist to have a clear view of the area. Many dental materials, like white ﬁllings, require the tooth to remain completely dry to achieve the best bond. It isolates the area from the tongue, cheeks, and saliva, thereby reducing chances of moisture contamination. The rubber dam also prevents many of the small tools and products used in dentistry from falling into the mouth and keeps unpleasant tasting items from touching the tongue! It is a win-win when the patient can relax without having to worry they may swallow anything foreign, and the dentist can do their best work! 609 Sixth Street, New Westminster

Can you handle the cute? This author isn’t sure Julie MacLellan LIVELY CITY

jmaclellan@newwestrecord.ca

They’re “easily one of the cutest creatures on the planet,” as Stefanie Fields calls them – and they’ve inspired her to write her fourth children’s book. The author, originally from Bellingham, now makes her home in New Westminster. She’s currently running a Kickstarter campaign to help fund her new kids’ picture book, The Greatest Treasure, illustrated by Heather Gross – inspired by that symbol of cuteness, the sea otter. The story synopsis is a simple one: “For Sam the Sea Otter, a priceless family heirloom leads to the best day ever, until a seagull fight changes everything.” What happens next won’t be revealed, but Fields is promising that young readers will take away a valuable lesson “about not being attached to material things because the most precious things in life aren’t things.”

But the book comes with a warning: cuteness overload. “You take otters, and you add Heather’s amazing illustrations, and you end up with a book that’s so cute we might not be able to handle it,” Fields says in a video on her Kickstarter page. Money raised in the campaign will go toward artwork, copyrights, distribution, marketing and other publishing costs. Fields’ future goal is to partner with a big-name publishing house so The Greatest Treasure can get into as many schools and libraries as possible, in Canada, the U.S. and beyond. A portion of sales from the book will go towards ocean conservation efforts. As of press time, the campaign had already surpassed its funding goal, but Fields noted in a message to the Record that “The more backers we have = the more books we sell = the more money we donate to help clean the ocean!” Check out www.tinyurl.

City works towards a greener ﬂeet Theresa McManus

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

New Westminster wants to lead the way in the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions with its vehicle fleet. Alternate fuels and electric vehicles are among the things the city is considering as part of its plan to reduce greenhouse gases. A staff report states that 39 vehicles and motorized equipment are scheduled for replacement over the next two years, so staff will continue to monitor and assess emerging technologies and industry trends and take ad-

vantage of opportunities to transition to a more efficient and low-carbon fleet. Mayor Jonathan Cote said the city is committed to making its fleet of vehicles as green as possible. “It’s not lost on council that, in terms of our greenhouse gas-reduction targets, all the sectors have met that, with the one exception of vehicles,” he said. “There are a number of different pressures and factors that make that difficult, but I think council still wants to see us pushing as hard as we can to make sure that our greenhouse gas-reduction

targets are connecting with the policies of our fleet.” Coun. Patrick Johnstone said the fleet has to be number 1 in the city’s emissions plan. “I can only encourage staff to be as proactive and forward-thinking as possible here,” he said. “We have a lot of advantages in the city compared to other cities.” Johnstone said the city works in five-year budget cycles, so it’s sometimes hard to think of the “payback period” for some of the initiatives related to greening of the fleet, as it can take longer than five

I am just asking staff to please not back away from these challenges, but to spend some time finding out what cutting-edge technology is going on,” he said. “We are a small city.We have our own electric utility.You’ve got an innovative council who really wants to embrace new technology and new initiatives, so if we can’t do it, no one can.

Community Hyack Homecoming returns to Mercer Stadium Theresa McManus AROUND TOWN

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

New West residents are invited to join in the festivities of Hyack Homecoming 2018. The annual event is taking place at Mercer Stadium on Friday, Sept. 14, beginning with an alumni flag football game at 4 p.m., a pre-game party at 5 p.m. featuring a family fun zone, mascots (including a visit from Marshall, Chase and Skye from Paw Patrol between 5:30 and 7 p.m.) and a tug-of-war competition. An alumni reception takes place at 6 p.m. “It’s the 14th edition of Homecoming. It’s a great community celebration. It’s not just about the football.There’s bouncy castles and all kinds of kids’ activities and that kind of thing,” said Barb Beale, who’s in charge of corporate sponsorship for the Hyacks. “This year’s theme is Hyacks’ Past, Present and Future Champions.”

More than 220 students aged five to 18 take part in the Hyacks program annually.To date, 40 players who have been in the program have earned college football scholarships. “Our big event each year is Homecoming,” Beale said. “Everybody comes out. Kids who play, kids who don’t play. Boys, girls, kids from other schools,

grandparents, parents. It’s a wonderful family activity, and we really try and keep it family-friendly.” The City Haulers are set to take on More Than you Bargained For at this year’s Homecoming tug-of-war competition. Beale said the completion is “all in good fun” and shows community involvement.

“I think it is something we should get more organizations involved in,” she said of the competitor won by the City Haulers last year. “We are going to try and recruit a few more corporations.” The festivities will include a celebration of the AAA Hyacks team that won the B.C. Championship in 2017. Kickoff for the evening’s game between the New Westminster Hyacks and the Abbotsford Panthers is at 7:30 p.m. HYACK FLOAT RACKS UP AWARDS Bryn Ward is thrilled with the reception the Hyack float is getting around the Pacific Northwest. Locals had a chance to see the float in the Hyack International Parade in May, but it’s also represented New Westminster at parades throughout the Pacific Northwest. Its final parade of the year will be in Leavenworth,Washington in September. “It’s won tons of awards, and, like, good awards –

mayors’ awards,”Ward said. “I am thrilled.” This year’s awards for the float include: Penticton Peachfest Parade – first place; Steveston Salmon Festival – Ted Lorenz Award;White Rock City Sea Festival Torchlight Parade – Best Lighting; Mar-

ysville Strawberry Festival – Mayor’s Award winner; and Tacoma Daffodil Parade – International Award winner. As this year’s Hyack president,Ward was responsible for coming up with a theme for the float, ultimately selecting “Rooted in Tradition – Blossoming Into the

Future” as its theme. In addition to coming up with the theme, she also had a hand in designing and making various components of the float. Do you have an item for Around Town? Send ideas to Theresa McManus, tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca.

Ice pops promote acts of local love campaign Theresa McManus MOVERS & SHAKERS

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

NewWest residents can savour the last days of summer thanks to a free, cool treat from the UnitedWay of the Lower Mainland. The UnitedWay is teaming up withVancouverbased artisan ice pop maker Johnny’s Pops to spread some love at a special popup cart in several cities in the region this week.The cart will be in NewWest on Saturday, Sept. 8 at 1 p.m. at River Market, 810 Quayside Dr. Passersby can enjoy a Johnny’s Pops ice pop, featuring flavours made with B.C. strawberries or raspberries, until supplies run out. But the ice pops are intended to be more than a sweet treat, as the United Way aims to have one million people engage in acts of local love across the Lower Mainland and FraserValley by 2025. For every ice pop, UnitedWay aims to raise awareness of its goal

and inspire local residents to reflect on what local love means to them. “This is local love in action, which is all about making our communities better,” Michael Mcknight, president and CEO of UnitedWay of the Lower Mainland, said in a press release. “It can be as small as surprising a neighbour with a treat, or as big as mobilizing thousands to help the most vulnerable people in our communities. Everyone can benefit from an act of local love.” Ice pop lovers are encouraged to follow UnitedWay of the Lower Mainland on Twitter and Instagram to track the cart in their neighbourhood, and to share the local love using the #actsoflocallove hashtag. NEW WEST BIZ WINS BRAGGING RIGHTS IN PRIDE WEEK CONTEST Greens and Beans Deli got a buzz out of its big win in the NewWest PrideWeek window display contest. At the recent NewWest Pride Fest street festi-

The winning window received $250 for the charity of its choice, and Greens and Beans will donate its winnings to the Royal City Humane Society. Leona Green recruited some friends to help decorate the Sapperton eatery for NewWest PrideWeek. Along with rainbow-coloured streamers, a rainbow balloon and a LOVE sign in the front window, interior tables were adorned with rainbow-coloured tablecloths and matching flowers. The pièce de résistance was a single-seat SOLO electric vehicle that was parked out front, featuring colourful artwork by artist Joe Average.The car, supplied by Electra Meccanica, is covered in colourful bees and features many colours of the rainbow. “People are getting out of their cars and taking pic-

It brings more people here.” Last summer, Green and her son Matt became the first customers to take home an Electra Meccanica SOLO, a three-wheeled vehicle made in the Lower Mainland.They’d seen one of the vehicles’ prototypes being driven around town, as one of the company’s production facilities is in NewWestminster. Green contacted the com-

pany to inquire whether it had a rainbow-themed SOLO and learned about the Joe Average car.The Greens’ green SOLO can often be spotted parked in front of the restaurant on East Columbia Street. “We are good ambassadors for them,” she told the Record before judging took place. “They said yes right away and brought the car right down.

LOST

Our hearts are broken. Shirley passed away, at the age of 83 at St. Michael’s Hospice with her family by her side, after a brief battle with Cancer. She is survived by: her loving husband of 67 years Don; children Susan Longva (Carl), Debby Morgan (Phil), Jeff Randall, Sandie Borton (Don); 7 grandchildren; 8 great grandchildren; and 3 sisters.

We would like to thank the staff at St. Michael’s for the wonderful care they showed our Mom during her time there.
