City reviewing protocols in wake of power outage Theresa McManus tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

The City of New Westminster is reviewing its communications protocols after some residents and businesses were left without power for nearly 24 hours. The city started receiving calls about a power outage around 7:30 p.m. on May 29.While the city was able to restore power to about 90 per cent of the residences and businesses hit by the outage in parts of the Glenbrook, Queen’s Park and Massey-Victory Heights neighbourhoods before midnight,

some properties around McBride Boulevard and Eighth Avenue were without power until about 6:30 p.m. the following day. Rod Carle, general manager of the electrical utility, said crews were able to determine on May 30 that the cause of the power outage was a burnt splice to an aging cable near the bottom of a manhole. Once the source was confirmed, crews got to work. “As always, we try our best,” Carle said. “We are trying the most-efficient, cost-effective way of getting it back on in a safe manner.The big thing for us is safety,

particularly in underground cable.” Carle said crews have to follow WorkSafeBC safety protocols when working with electricity. “The key message for me is we have a safety protocol we have to follow. It’s about keeping our employees and our linemen and our servicemen safe,” he said. “We are going to do whatever we can to make sure that happens.” During the power outage, some residents voiced concerns on social media about a lack of communication from the city about when power would be restored.

“We are trying to get informaton out quicker,” he said. “Our priority is to try and get the power back on.The communication group has indicated if we give them the first heads up they will take it from there.” The electrical department will also be working with the IT department to address challenges faced by people calling to report power outages. “They are going to look into where the phone issues are.We end up getting overload,” Carle said. “We are hoping to have some answers there.”

One resident took to Twitter to suggest the city should have a recorded message on its after-hours outage line to let people know the city is aware of the outage. She said residents were left in the dark on two counts – with no lights and no information about whether the city was aware of the issue. Carle met with the city’s communications and IT staff on Tuesday to discuss potential changes to existing protocols. Plans are afoot to improve the way information is communicated to residents and businesses via social media.

City Beat INFRASTRUCTURE

New gas line planned in New West for 2021

Theresa McManus tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

FortisBC is considering two options for moving gas between New Westminster and Surrey. Gord Shoberg, senior manager of municipal and community relations for FortisBC, told city council that work is underway as part of the Pattullo gas line replacement, with a new line to be constructed in New Westminster at the end of 2021. “FortisBC has a 20-inch diameter distribution gas line that exists on the underside of the existing Pattullo Bridge,” he said. “It was installed in the 1950s. It has been quietly been going about serving over 30,000 customers in the New Westminster, Burnaby and Coquitlam area since that time.” A decision to build a replacement for the Pattullo Bridge and to decommission the existing bridge means FortisBC has to keep the gas flowing from Surrey towards New Westminster. Because of new design standards, Fortis is unable to install a gas line on the new bridge. Shoberg said two horizontal directional drill options under the Fraser River are being considered. “They have different impacts on the community,” he said. “That is why we have been out talking to a number of stakeholders, businesses, residents’ groups and others.We have been working with your city staff to start to explore which of these two options would be preferred.” A “transmission pressure option” would require a drill worksite and a perma-

Shoberg said a regulator station would be a fenced compound of approximate-

ly 10 metres by 20 metres in size, which would provide off-street parking for vehicles of employees who visit the site and a building of a size that’s yet to be determined. “We have been told by your staff to work with the urban scape design that has been worked on with your staff and the ministry,” he said. “There is, of course, a lot of plans for a multi-use pathway and beautification around the area, so clearly we would need to design it in a way that would fit in to the urban landscape.” Coun. Patrick Johnstone questioned if the facility has to be above ground or if it could be placed underground.

PHOTO RECORD FILES

Shoberg said the facility has to be located above ground because it requires a heater so the gas doesn’t freeze. “The heaters just can’t go underground,” he said. “The volume of gas that is required to move through the facility precludes it from being put underground.” Johnstone expressed concern that the location of the facility could be problematic, as that’s a location where pedestrian and cyclist networks to the new bridge are likely to connect. In addition, he noted it will be located in a residential neighbourhood where people live so FortisBC will have to be “very sensitive” to what the building looks like.

Meet our new reporter, Dustin Godfrey We are pleased to welcome Dustin Godfrey to the editorial staff of the New Westminster Record. Dustin is an award-winning reporter who comes to the Record from the Abbotsford News, where he covered education and completed a Ma Murraynominated multi-part series on people living on the streets. Before that, Dustin covered courts and crime, homelessness and the prison system for the Penticton Western News. This week, Dustin won

first place for Outstanding Reporter Initiative in the Canadian Community Newspaper Awards for a series on the new Okanagan prison for the Penticton paper.

He is also a devoted parent to his cat Hobbes.

“That’s a challenging spot,” he said. Shoberg said a number of considerations will go into determining which option is preferred, including technical information, and community and Indigenous feedback. “We have to look at other things – environmental, archeological aspects, cost – just the practicalities of design.These things would be drilled underneath TransLink – SkyTrain tunnels,” he said. “There’s a lot of technical expertise.We are just at the beginning of collecting now.” If FortisBC chooses the transmission-pressure option, Shoberg said it would need to purchase land for

the pressure-reducing station. Jim Lowrie, the city’s director of engineering, said city staff has had preliminary discussions with FortisBC on the plan, which coincides with the work on replacement of the Pattullo Bridge and needs to be coordinated with the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure. As details become available, he said staff will report to council and recommend the city’s preferred option. Melanie Kilpatrick, project director for the Pattullo gas line replacement project, said FortisBC is reaching out to stakeholders. “We are just ramping up now with our engagement, all in an effort to understand and get feedback on the two options,” she said. “Later in the summer we will be taking all that feedback, in addition to all the technical concerns associated with each option, and doing an evaluation and coming out with a preferred (option) towards the end of summer. Once we have our preferred option, we will do some public information sessions to obtain some further feedback.” Kilpatrick said FortisBC will also be doing a geotechnical investigation program in the late summer or early fall, once a preferred option is determined. It hopes to file an application with the British Columbia Utilities Commission in late 2019, get its support and build a new gas line in late 2021. Anyone wanting more information about the project can contact Fortis at talkingenergy.ca, 604-5767208 and pattullogasline@ fortisbc.com.

Process on cannabis shops hits a roadblock Theresa McManus tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

NewWestminster city council wants to consider cannabis shop applications as soon as possible, but it’s divided on the best way of moving forward. In April, council gave two readings to zoning amendment bylaws for the five properties being considered in the initial intake of cannabis shops: 71 Sixth St.; 540 Ewen Ave.; 710 12th St.; 451 East Columbia St.; and 532 Sixth St. The city has been awaiting the results of financial integrity and security program checks from the Liquor and Cannabis Regulation Branch before scheduling a public hearing for these applications. “Initially, we didn’t know what the timeline from the LCRB would be to get these checks back to us.We anticipated it would be a relatively short timeline,” said planner MikeWatson. “That hasn’t proven to be the case.” According toWatson, the city has received one re-

sult back from the province, which consisted of a two- or three-line statement. “We don’t know the timeline from the province to receive the financial integrity and security checks.We have had 22 applications with the city and we have received only one response back, and it was on an application that wasn’t recommended to move forward,” he said. “I suspect there is some time for the province to get through the backlog of applications that they have.” Council recently considered a motion by Coun. Patrick Johnstone that the city hold the public hearings about the five applications but make approval of the applications subject to the applicants getting a satisfactory report from the Liquor and Cannabis Regulation Branch. “I guess the point is, I don’t know why we are pausing right now if we could possibly move our process forward so that these two processes work in parallel,” Johnstone said. “Frankly, it has been a long

time, I think a lot longer than we had anticipated it would be.” After a lengthy discussion, council voted 4-3 against the motion, deciding to wait for the results of the province’s financial and security checks before holding public hearings. “We have been contacted by unsuccessful applications, including their legal counsel.We have told them we are waiting for the provincial security and financial clearances before proceeding to the public hearing,” said Craig MacFarlane, the city’s manager of legal services. “My concern is that to change course right now might not be the best, simply to maintain consistency of what we have told everyone.” Mayor Jonathan Cote and councillors Johnstone and Jaimie McEvoy supported scheduling public hearing for the five current applications, but councillors Chinu Das, Nadine Nakagawa, Chuck Puchmayr and Mary Trentadue opposed and want to wait until the city

receives the results of the checks from the province. Puchmayr said the provincial check is key information for the city to consider. “This is contentious.We have heard people comment about the process. I don’t want to muddle it any further,” he said. “The process that’s happening right now with the province is part of the public hearing – we are

waiting for them to comment on a very important piece of the public hearing. To have the public hearing without that would really be a subjective process. All five could be turned down.We could have this lengthy public hearing and, all of a sudden, none of them qualify by the province. It just seems we are putting the cart before the horse.”

Johnstone said his motivation for going to public hearing is to take away one piece of the uncertainty faced by applicants, as the process is challenging and creates a significant amount of financial risk for the applicants. “Frankly, it’s going to take us weeks or a month to get a public hearing going anyway.This may drag on to the fall or later,” he said. “I just want to try to deal with the part we can deal with so that we can say to ourselves we have done all we can to get this process transparent, accountable and easy for our applicants to navigate with some certainty.” Cote said it appears the province’s checks are going to trickle in and won’t come in all at once. If the rezoning applications are considered at a public hearing and the province provides a positive report about one of the applications, he said the city would be able to move forward with that application so the applicant isn’t waiting on the others.

Opinion OUR VIEW

Trustees made the right call on May Day dances The debate over when and how to stage May Day came up again last week and it has us wondering when this will ever end. Supporters of May Day went before the New Westminster school board to ask trustees to change their minds about having dance instruction time take place after school. Dance instruction for May Day used to occur during school hours, but now takes place outside of instruction time.The

change was made earlier this year, before the annual celebration took place. Supporters of the event said this change had a damaging effect on student involvement in May Day. According to Kathy (Gifford) Glassie - May Queen in 1975 - fewer kids participated in the May Day dancing this year. Former school board trustee Brent Atkinson told trustees there were half as many may poles as usual. “My major concern is,

We’re highly skeptical about how much knowledge or how many skills the kids really get from this event. a lot of students can’t participate,” he said, adding some kids have both parents working or are committed to other after-school activities. Another May Day supporter, Lorraine Brett, spoke about what the kids

learn. “I’m asking the trustees to reconsider the notion that the knowledge and skills transmitted through the teachers to the students that relates to the dance and music of this living cultural heritage – let it be reinstat-

ed,” she said. On this last point, we’re highly skeptical about how much knowledge or how many skills the kids really get from this event. It seems dubious there is much learning actually going on, which is why we support moving the instruction to after school. Schools are under so much pressure to deliver an increasingly complicated and demanding curriculum to students.They need as much time as possible

to focus on things that are, frankly, far more important than teaching kids to dance around a pole. So it makes sense to not eat up hours paid for by taxpayers. Perhaps now it’s time to hold the actual event after school. Even better, how about a society be formed to take this entire community event out of the school district’s hands? This really feels more like a community event than a school district- and taxpayer-funded event.

MY VIEW KEITH BALDREY

NDP easily won the spring session The spring legislative session ended in acrimony, but its conclusion bore little relation to the events of the past four months. The NDP government accomplished most of its legislative agenda, the Green party showed it can play a role in shaping public policy and the BC Liberals made it clear they have a ways to go before exorcising the lingering trauma from their 2017 election loss. The antics of Speaker Darryl Plecas during the last two days of the session were a reminder he is a divisive, partisan figure who wants to disrupt. He stands accused of workplace bullying and seems intent on investigating the legislature’s security staff, a move that may result in those staff members joining the B.C. Government Employees Union, which would be a first. But while Plecas and his staff have become a circus sideshow, they haven’t stopped the NDP from checking off a lot of boxes from their list of campaign promises. The NDP enacted significant changes to labour laws, the Agricultural Land Reserve and how forest tenures are managed. As well, it dealt with unfair ticket sales, B.C. Ferry routes and fares, and called a public inquiry into money laundering. As for the Green party, the session provided more evidence its three members have absolutely no intention of pulling their support from the NDP government, thus paving the way for the NDP to run the full mandate until

the fall of 2021. While occasionally hypercritical of the NDP’s performance on some issues, the Greens can still be counted on to vote with the government at the right time. The Greens also managed to get one of their bills passed into law, a major accomplishment. And they allowed the BC Liberals to amend some NDP legislation, so the third party in the House is indeed having some impact. But the BC Liberals are still finding their way in the political wilderness and some members of their caucus still seem to have trouble realizing they are no longer in government. It is as if they think this is all a bad dream and one day they will wake up and find themselves on the other side of the House.The close seat count leads to the misconception that they are so close to holding power. Still, the BC Liberals did land the occasional blow, pressuring the government into conducting a probe (watered-down, but still) into gas prices, embarrassed a cabinet minister (Citizen Services Minister Jinny Sims) on a regular basis over her email problems and exposed major problems with the NDP’s caribou protection plan. Nevertheless, despite those modest successes, the session was a winner for the NDP. Hands down. Now, if they can all just find a way to get the Speaker under control.

Police dog called on scared teens

A group of young people looking to freak themselves out Blair-Witch-Project-style were sent home from the grounds of the shuttered Woodlands School after a warning from police. A security guard spotted the group at about 3 a.m. He called police, and officers arrived with a police dog.With help from the canine cop, the officers found the teens in the dark-and-eery underground tunnels that connected the Woodlands buildings. “They were shocked the police were there and they promised not to come back again,” Sgt. Ivan Chu said. It turned out the canine and emergency response teams had used the tunnels at the closed-down school for training.

Shared recycling depot is a win-win for everyone Editor: Re: I’m not buying it will be easy getting to the new recycling depot, Record Letters, May 19 Like many other residents of this region, I’m sure, I am often irritated by the duplication of services across our many small municipalities and the inefficiency that comes with it. Surely, this is something all New Westminster residents would consider when looking at our recent property tax notices. There seems to be a real dearth of co-operative scenarios that could deliver a comparable service while saving some taxpayer dollars. It was for this reason that I was pleased to hear about the plan for a new shared recycling depot for New West and the Tri-Cities. No question, I will miss the convenience of dropping materials while at the pool, but the surely-to-be-improved traffic flows, expanded list of accepted materials (i.e. electronics), along with knowing that we’re getting the best bang for our buck from the facility, will be well worth the change. I say good on the city for working with our neighbours on this project. I hope it’s not the last. John Kendler, New Westminster

Moving recycling depot will make it difficult Editor: Re: I’m appalled at New West’s handling

of the recycling depot closure, Record Letters, May 16 Kudos to Ken Wrights’s editorial. I totally agree moving the recycling depot is wrong. I use this facility every week because of its location. Moving the location is not in my carbon footprint, not a normal area I travel to, and with the cost of gas and having to use the Bailey bridge with the amount of travel in that area to access this the new location, my recycling days would be done. I would not go this location. Currently, there is a baseball field adjacent to the current depot - could some of this land be used be used for the new pool? And the removal of the Begbie statue is wrong we cannot underdo was done and to remove it is forgetting to move forward. Shane Kurschenska, New Westminster

City DOWNTOWN

Water tunnel to provide gathering space Theresa McManus tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

More lighting and more trees – that’s New Westminster city council’s hope for a downtown site owned by Metro Vancouver that aims to become a gathering place for residents. Part of Metro Vancouver’s plan to build the Annacis water supply tunnel between New Westminster and Surrey includes construction of an underground chamber at 1031 Quebec St. A staff report notes that once construction of the new tunnel and chamber are complete, the space near Royal Avenue and 11th Street will become a public open space owned by Metro Vancouver. According to a staff report, city staff have met with Metro Vancouver and their project landscape architect to review options for the 1,860-square-metre

site.The design will attempt to integrate water and hydrology into the site, to balance paved areas and green space, to support birds, insects and pollinators on site and to provide native plant species, and to integrate educational opportunities that explain the infrastructure below. The design concept for the site includes green space where residents can sit, socialize and play. It also includes street trees along the perimeter to provide shade and “a sense of enclosure.” In an effort to ensure the space in inviting to area residents, council directed staff to work with Metro Vancouver on options for more lighting and trees on the site. “The lighting seems missing,” said Coun. Mary Trentadue. “If we are talking about having the space be for public use and a park nature, it’s in an area of

town where it is pretty dark. I think lighting would be pretty crucial.” Although the concept plan includes some trees in an area where there are few trees, Coun. Nadine Nakagawa said it seems like a missed opportunity to add to the city’s tree canopy. She said more trees would help provide a buffer from neighbouring industrial areas and traffic. Jackie Teed, the city’s director of planning, said there may be an opportunity to provide more trees on the site, but they can’t impact the water tunnel’s below-ground infrastructure. She said staff will work with Metro Vancouver to see that as many trees as possible are put on the site. Construction of the Annacis water supply tunnel is expected to take place between 2020 and 2025.

Tragedy: The crash scene on Highway 20 at Highway 395. PHOTO ROGER HARNACK, STATESMAN EXAMINER

Motorcyclist killed in crash Roger Harnack Special to the Record

A British Columbia man was killed Tuesday when his motorcycle was struck by a dumptruck at the intersection of Highways 20 and 395 about four miles northwest of the city. Motorcyclist David P. Gilbride, 69, of New Westminster, was pronounced dead at the scene about 40 miles south of the U.S.Canada border crossing at Laurier.

Truck driver Leland J. Williams, 62, of Spokane, was injured and transported to Sacred Heart Medical Center in Spokane. His condition was not immediately available. According to the Washington State Patrol, Gilbride was southbound on U.S. Highway 395 on his 2012 Yamaha motorcycle;Williams was northbound in a 2008 Kenworth dumptruck bearing the logo of Dirt and Aggregate Interchange Inc. At about 9:23 a.m., as

both drivers neared the Highway 20 intersection, the truck crossed the centerline and hit the motorcycle head-on, just west end of the Columbia River bridge. The motorcycle became entangled between the truck frame and bed as it overturned and slid into in front of Colville Fuels-Noisy Waters, formerly known as Barney’s Junction. The cause of the crash remains under investigation and charges could be pending.

Community HEALTH CARE

RCH staff invent device for preemie babies Chris Campbell

ccampbell@newwestrecord.ca

Imagine your baby has just been born. Imagine that even though you want to hold your baby more than anything in the world, you are told you can’t. Imagine that for the next couple of months you aren’t allowed to have your baby lie on your bare chest, letting that oh-so-soft skin touch yours as you form a life-long bond. It’s something so horrible to imagine that a group of neonatal intensive care unit staff at Royal Columbian Hospital in NewWestminster decided to imagine a solution. The problem is when premature babies are using a high-frequency jet ventilator in order to breathe.That ventilator – which provides a jet stream of air through a baby’s lungs – is placed inside an incubator. It has a humming, thumping beat to it, meaning it disrupts the baby’s sleep because it normally has to be placed next to the patient’s head due to the limited length of the tubing.Those limitations also mean preemies can’t be

taken out of the incubator to be held while they’re on a ventilator. It was this situation that led the NICU staff and RCH clinicians and respiratory therapists to sit down in 2016 and brainstorm a solution. Once they came up with a possible fix, they did what every great inventor does next. They went to Canadian Tire. DallyceVarty, a clinical nurse educator at RCH, said they took “random pieces” from around the NICU, such as an IV pole, and bought bungee cords at Canadian Tire to strap down the part of the ventilator that normally goes inside the incubator. Once the prototype was assembled, they tested it out. “We were very encouraged with the results,” said Varty. With a prototype in hand, the NICU staff applied for and received a $3,000 Fraser Health innovation grant in 2018 to build a more sophisticated model that includes a secure base and an arm that swivels as the baby is taken out of the incubator and placed in the loving arms of a parent.

“If we hadn’t invented this, parents wouldn’t be able to hold their babies at such a crucial time,” said Varty. Skin-to-skin contact has been shown to produce numerous benefits for both baby and parents. Aside from the bonding factor, this contact is a great stress reducer and facilitates the production of breastmilk – something that is difficult for a mother when their baby is born premature. The device has been so successful, there are plans to produce three more at RCH.The intellectual property of the design is being transferred over to the RCH Foundation, which will be raising money for the three additional devices. Varty and respiratory therapist supervisor Kuljit Minhas have also been busy travelling around the world to speak about the device. Helping spread the word is Ashley Durance, a Chilliwack mother whose daughter Hazel was a patient at the RCH NICU after being born at 23 weeks and weighing under a pound. Durance said Hazel was born so early, she hadn’t even felt her daughter kick

inside, a situation followed by weeks of not being able to hold her baby. “There was a definite disconnect there,” Durance said. “It’s so hard.This feeling of natural regret just comes over you.” Then the first prototype was introduced, and Durance was able to have Hazel lie on her bare skin at 32 days. “It felt like she was back home where she belongs,”

said Durance, who has blogged about her experiences and helps counsel other moms of premature babies. “That first moment, my husband says he’s never seen me smile that big. It still gives me goosebumps.” Hazel is now an active toddler looking forward to her third birthday. Meanwhile, Durance has volunteered to be a spokes-parent for the RCH NICU device because she is so grateful for

its invention. “When I read another parent asking online about how to deal with the struggles of having a premature baby, I think, ‘This is why we’re doing this,’” said Durance. “It’s so important to spread the word to help others.” Varty agrees. Her hope is that by speaking at conferences, other NICUs around the world will develop their own devices.

Royal Columbian Hospital leads the way in cardiac care The latest indicators from cardiac care centres across the country show Royal Columbian Hospital in New Westminster is a leader in treatment for people who have had heart attacks. According to the RCH Foundation, the hospital’s cardiac catheterization lab performs more angioplasties than any other hospital in the country.

The foundation is citing new data released publicly by the Canadian Institute for Health Information. Angioplasty is a minimallyinvasive procedure involving the use of catheters, balloons and stents to open clogged heart arteries. It is a key treatment for heart attacks. “It’s a testament to the experience and efficiency

of our cardiac team,” said RCH interventional cardiologist Dr. Gerald Simkus, who is also Fraser Health’s medical director for cardiac sciences, in a news release. “Royal Columbian performs almost as many emergency angioplasties for heart attacks as the rest of the province combined, and with some of the best survival rates in Canada. It’s

QUEENS PARK 221 St. Patrick St.

very satisfying to take people who are sick, in pain and dying and literally save their lives.” In each of the cross-Canada comparisons released by CIHI since its inaugural report in 2017, Royal Columbian has been the busiest in the province and among the busiest in the country.With 2,935 angioplasties during the 2017-18

year, Royal Columbian is now Canada’s busiest cardiac cath lab for this life-saving procedure. In addition, Royal Columbian Hospital is one of four centres in the country with statistically superior survival rates following angioplasty.The hospital also sees the highest proportion of high-risk cases in the province, involving patients

Community Seniors Services gets a half-million-dollar boost Theresa McManus

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

A New Westminsterbased society will be expanding its offerings to vulnerable seniors thanks to the provincial government. The Seniors Services Society hosted the Grand Parade fundraising walk in New West on Saturday, with the goal of raising $25,000 to help support temporary housing needs, outreach and housing-navigation services for seniors who are homeless and at risk of homelessness. New Westminster MLA Judy Darcy attended the fundraiser and announced $500,000 in provincial funding that will help the society to link vulnerable seniors to vital mental health and addictions services, by expanding its existing programs and partnerships. “This funding gave us a big boost to strengthen our core services and expand our reach so that we can serve more seniors in our communities,” Kyoko Takahashi, operations manager for Seniors Services Society, said in a press release. “We look forward to forging meaningful partnerships with other agencies to promote these initiatives.” According to a press release from the province, the

funding will help the society to promote mental health and addictions services to work alongside its existing seniors’ programs, including in private residences, seniors’ centres and in shelters. It will also help build online resources that make it easier for B.C.’s aging population to connect to the services they need. “More and more seniors are struggling alone. They often live in isolation, without social connection, with limited mobility and don’t know where to turn for help,” said Darcy, the Judy Darcy province’s minister MLA of mental health and addictions. “This funding will support Seniors Services Society to create bridges between vulnerable seniors and the vital mental health and addictions services that they need – here in New Westminster and across the province.” Seniors Services Society is the only agency in Metro Vancouver that works exclusively with homeless and at-risk seniors. It works in partnership with all levels of government, community organizations and local businesses to provide a place of safety and support to seniors struggling

Because of their help, I now have a home and the support I need,” client Wendy Palidwor said in the press release. “I feel that more mental health and addictions outreach workers and supports for seniors will be helpful, as they made a big difference for me.” The society, located on Carnarvon Street in downtown New Westminster, provides a variety of programs and services for adults aged 60 and up, including Meals on Wheels, grocery shopping, medical transport, support calls, outings, and form and tax completion.

University seeks participants for new hearing study. Connect Hearing, in conjunction with Professor Mark Fenske at the University of Guelph, are seeking participants who are over 50 years of age, have never worn hearing aids and have not had a hearing test in the last 24 months, for a hearing study that investigates factors that can influence better hearing. Study Parameters Hearing problems typically result from damage to the ear and researchers have spent decades trying to understand the biology behind hearing loss. Of particular interest to the researchers is identifying how we listen. There is a current theory that divides people into two “listening groups”. People in the first group need to put more effort into their listening, while members in the second group aren’t easily distracted. It’s the people in the first group who will look for

a solution to their hearing loss sooner than the second group, even though the level of hearing loss could be very similar. The researchers will examine listening in a range of situations, from one-on-one, to group conversations, watching TV and wider social contexts like supermarkets and other noisy environments, and how it effects connection and socialization. Why Participate? It is estimated that 46% of people aged 45 to 87 have some degree of hearing loss, but most do not seek a solution right away. In fact, the average person with hearing loss will wait ten years before seeking help. You’ll be playing an important part in a study that will further identify the key factors impacting hearing difficulties and better understand their influence on the treatment process.

Community NWSS drama company offers up dinner theatre fun Theresa McManus

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

New Westminster Secondary School’s senior theatre company is serving up a quirky dinner theatre entrée in Luigi’s Italian Kitchen. Twenty-four Grade 11 and 12 students in the high school’s theatre company class will be performing Who Poisoned His Meatball? on Monday, June 10 and Tuesday, June 11 at 6:30 p.m.The dinner theatre performances take place in Luigi’s Italian Kitchen (a.k.a. the Massey cafeteria), where attendees will dine on spaghetti and meatballs, Caesar salad and garlic bread, coffee, tea and dessert – while watching this whodunit unfold before them. “When arrogant businessman Nero Sharpe dies suddenly after eating a meal at Luigi’s Italian restaurant, everyone asks, ‘Who poisoned his meatball?’ Staff members, customers, and

family members begin a comedic exploration of whodunit? to determine who could benefit from Nero’s untimely demise,” said a synopsis of the play. “Was it the salad chef? Was it Luigi? Nero’s wife? Or could it have been Nero’s mis-

tress? Join in the fun as the quirky characters go back in time to retrace their steps as they work to reveal the facts of this entertaining mystery.” NWSS students are hoping to serve up an entertaining evening to a full house. The 24 students in the class have been divided into two casts, with one group performing on Monday and

the other on Tuesday. Frances Monteleone teaches the higher-level senior acting class where students learn about all aspects of a production, including creating and writing scripts, sourcing and making props, advertising, directing, and fundamental acting skills. Monteleone has always wanted to do dinner theatre, and the opportunity came to life this year through the support of grants from the parent advisory council. “The students have been working diligently and would love to perform for an audience,” said Monteleone in an email to parents. “The play is quirky, comedic and sure to entertain.” Tickets are $20 (including dinner) and are available in advance online at www. newwestschools.schoolcashonline.com or at the NWSS Pearson office 604517-6220.

Five ways parents can help their kids feel comfortable at the dentist 1. Be a positive role model. Children frequently learn by example. If they see their parents being diligent about dental care, they’re more likely to embrace proper oral hygiene. Bring children to your own dental appointments so they understand the process and become familiar with the type of equipment used. 2. Stick to the first-tooth milestone. Take your child to the dentist on or about when his or her first tooth erupts. Early dental visits will get kids used to going to the dentist and prevent minor problems that may lead to more complex dental issues. 3. Read books about the dentist and role play. Information can allay kids’ fears about the dentist. Read books together about dental visits and act out possible scenarios with your kids. Give kids toy dental health tools and have them practice exams on you and vice-versa. 4. Be supportive and instill trust. Avoid telling your child that everything will be okay. If a procedure is needed, this could affect his or her trust in you and make the dental office an even greater source of anxiety. Simply be supportive and offer a hand to squeeze or a hug if your child needs you. 5. Consider using your dentist. Some parents like to take their children to a pediatric dentist, but it may not always be necessary. Many family practices cater to patients of all ages, and the familiarity of the office may help make children feel more comfortable. Speak with your dentist about the ages they see.

ASK A DENTURIST

Q A

Why are my dentures loose?

Dentures rely on the support of bone and tissues for stability. When you lose your natural teeth, bone does not have the support that it needs to maintain its structure, therefore it begins to shrink. If you have been wearing the BRIAN KO same dentures for a long period of time, your bone and soft tissues will have changed from when you first received those dentures. This change will cause the dentures to become loose and may cause discomfort. It is important to have your dentures and your mouth assessed to see if you need either a reline, rebase or even a new denture. Dentures on average can last up to 5 years before they need to be replaced and up to about 2 years before the dentures need to be assessed for a reline.

Q A

My daughter has chipped her two front teeth at school... Should she see a dentist?

Mouth injuries are common in children and teens. As many as 50% of children will experience DR. CHANTAL THERIAULT tooth trauma during their childhood. In most cases, tooth injuries are not life threatening, yet they often warrant a visit to a dentist for assessment and treatment. Treatment for a tooth injury will depend on the degree of severity. A small chip may require no treatment, while a larger chip may require a root canal. After any moderate impact to the mouth, even with the absence of any visual signs of tooth displacement or chipping, your dentist will likely elect to take a radiograph of the area to have a baseline of the tooth and the bone. This radiograph can be used as reference if symptoms develop in the future. When in doubt... see your dentist as soon as possible after trauma! 609 Sixth Street, New Westminster

ASK A PHYSIOTHERAPIST

Q A

I really want to hike in the nice weather, but I am concerned about injuries. What can I do to avoid injuries when hiking?

Stress fractures occur when a person suddenly increases their activity level (e.g. starting distance running too quickly). STEVEN McGEE The normal process of bony uptake and laying down of new bone is overloaded, and a progressive weakening of the bone occurs, resulting in progressively more pain in that area. Stress fractures usually occur in the lower extremities. They occur more commonly in females (especially with menstrual irregularity), and in thinner people. The Physiotherapist is often the first person to suspect a stress fracture due to localized pain, a vague onset, and recent change in activity. While X-rays may show signs of the injury, a bone scan or MRI is often needed to confirm the diagnosis. Treatment of stress fractures ultimately requires rest, and a careful graduated return to activity. The average time for recovery is 13 to 19 weeks.

Community How letting your kids quit can teach an important lesson Mommy’s GROUNDED Bianca Bujan

It was my daughter’s choice to join the school band. She wanted to learn how to play a new instrument and was excited to join an extracurricular activity that she could share with friends. But as the year went on, her interest dwindled. For months, she begged to quit and, for months, I encouraged her to continue, determined to teach her it’s important to see things through to the end. But then I realized that if your heart truly isn’t in it, perhaps it’s better to let go. She had also been doing several styles of dance classes, joined the basketball team and was doing track and field. In all of those activities, she was enthusiastic and driven to succeed. But with band, she grew apathetic

and I knew it wasn’t going to stick. Parents struggle with the choice between forcing their children to finish what they’ve started or letting them quit something they clearly don’t enjoy. While “quitters never win” often rings true, knowing when to quit and move on can also be a winning decision. Encouraging children to stick with something they’ve started can be an important life lesson, but letting them quit may lead to the discovery of a lifelong passion. Allowing them to explore their options and pursue their interests early on can strengthen parent-child relationships and increase selfconfidence. Upon realizing that my daughter was overscheduled, uninterested and determined to focus her time on the activities that she loved most, I decided to let her discontinue. Here’s the thing, though:

I didn’t quit for her. I told her that if she was serious about quitting, she would have to go to her band teacher, and explain to him in person why she has decided to leave. I wanted her to learn that quitting is tough. It takes guts to admit when something isn’t the right fit, and courage to do so gracefully.

It takes guts to admit when something isn’t the right fit.

In life, she will be faced with many scenarios where she will want to take the easy way out and leave a note, send a text, or ask me to make a phone call on her behalf. She will break up with boys, she will decide to withdraw from a class, or she will quit a job.

It won’t be easy, but I want her to learn that if she makes the decision to quit, she needs to show respect, and do so in a respectful manner – face to face. Too often nowadays, we go out of our way to make lives easier for our kids. But by doing the tough stuff for them, we’re setting them up for more difficulties in life when they’re older. Deciding whether or not to let a child quit a nonessential activity is not a make-or-break, life-altering decision. If you do decide to let them quit, I encourage you to let them do so themselves. They’ll not only learn that quitting can be tough, but they’ll also learn that sometimes, it’s OK to quit. Bianca Bujan is a mom of three, writer, editor, and marketing consultant.

Arts & Entertainment Filmmaker earns award Julie MacLellan LIVELY CITY

jmaclellan@newwestrecord.ca

A New Westminster photographer and filmmaker is earning more international attention for his work. Gabor Gasztonyi recently earned a Best Cinematography award from the Harlem International Film Festival for his film NoWay Out. NoWay Out, which was completed in the fall of 2017, is described as an “intimate story of addiction,” interspersing Gasztonyi’s black-and-white images of the Downtown Eastside with the personal stories of two middle-aged couples who began using injection drugs in childhood – following them over a five-year period. Gasztonyi served as writer, director and cinematographer for the film, which he co-produced with Daryl Bennett – who served as editor, composer and sound director. Gasztonyi’s studio and gallery is on 12th Street.You

Hyacks’ vaulter clears new provincial record

NewWest’s Ella Foster establishes new B.C. mark in junior pole vault Dan Olson

dolson@newwestrecord.ca

It didn’t take too many attempts before New Westminster’s Ella Foster put in a personal best. The Grade 10 pole vaulter garnered a big cheer when she cleared 3.32 metres during Saturday’s event at the Apple Bowl in Kelowna. Having already clinched the gold once she exceeded 3.0 metres, the New West Hyack kept pushing the envelope until she cleared the height that won the senior girls’ title a day earlier, too, at the provincial high school track and field championships last week. “To beat the record for juniors by one centimetre, it was beautiful,” remarked New West track coach Bryan McMaster. “She did it on her second (of three) attempts, and by then she was the last man standing.” Foster, who trains under Royal City Track and Field coach Christina Weir on the event, continued on after clearing 3.32, but the hot Okanagan weather and repetitive nature of the event took their toll. “She tried to do 3.40m but by then she was gassed,” said McMaster. A day earlier, Foster was part of the school’s 4x100 senior girls relay team that finished fifth with a time of 50.34 seconds, just a thirdof-a-second out of third place. In that event, she led off with fellow Grade 10s Kimi Tam, Aja Tjernagel and Grade 11 Emma Dolman following – with Tjernagel as the anchor. “They had a really good run, each of them,” said McMaster. “Very good exchanges, strong finishes. If you consider that three of them are juniors and all four could be running the event next year, that sets them up nicely.” Tjernagel would go right from there almost directly to compete in her junior long jump – her strongest event – and understandably was unable to reach a personal best. The teen finished 11th, after

winning the zone title two weeks earlier. McMaster said although Tjernagel was disappointed with the result, she showed great leadership in competing in the relay, knowing that the events were so tightly scheduled. “We were pleased with her triple jump result, finishing sixth overall, and I think it was great that she sacrificed her best event for the team.That (conflict) won’t happen next year when she’s a senior.” Another strong result for New West came from Jeremy Belcher, who in the senior boys 100m established a new personal best in placing fifth with a time of 11.17. He carried a strong performance from the preliminary into the final, noted McMaster. The Hyacks’ Kaitlyn Hanger, meanwhile, also placed fifth in her senior girls hammer throw, and added points with an eighth-place showing in the shotput. Monika Arcadi was looking at building on her stellar fifth-place result at the B.C. multi-events meet a week ago, and posted the eighth-best time in the junior girls 1500m steeplechase. A Grade 9, Arcadi’s multi-events tally in the heptathlon may have looked like a step back, after she won the Grade 8 provincial title a year ago, but McMaster notes she was competing against an older field. “She is pretty good at both the high jump and the running events like the 800m,” said the coach. “To place fifth against Grade 10s (in the heptathlon) was pretty good, and her sights are set for next year.” Also securing a top-eight result was Lauryn Savela, who finished sixth in senior girls javelin. Mahad Amen Ali would place 12th in the junior boys 1500m, while Roman Nikolov finished 18th in high jump. While the school’s aggregate total fell well short of past heights, it wasn’t because of a shortage of good athletes, said McMaster. “Our past strong team results were a product of excellent multi-

sport athletes like Raquel Tjernagel, Nina Schultz and Grace Fetherstonhaugh,” he noted.Their wins in their respective events carried a lot of weight. “After those years of winning provincials with those girls, we were kind of baffled why we didn’t do the same at the zones,” he noted. “So I shifted the focus this year

and we won the (local) banner.” The team consisted of 16 athletes. It was also a strong weekend for the Glenbrook Middle school team, led by Levi Tuura’s silver medal in the high jump.The Grade 8 athlete cleared 1.75m for second place, and added a personal best and seventh overall in the

long jump. Avery Tamagi finished 12th in the Gr. 8 girls’ 3000m event, slicing 40 seconds off her previous best time in the process. Also competing for Glenbrook were Grace Lin,Victoria Kolganov, Hannah Kroll, Emma Hillaby, Reid HindsMcDonald, Noah Duke and Aiden Post.

LACROSSE

New West falls to Burrards, cheer on Raptors

Raptors fans come in all sizes and shapes. They even come in other sports. Polling a couple of New Westminster Salmonbellies following their edge-of-theirseats 9-8 loss to Maple Ridge last Thursday at Queen’s Park, the longest street in the world –Yonge Street, according to Wikipedia – seems to travel through the Royal City. For Ontario transplants Austin Shanks and Alexis Buque, news of the Toronto Raptors’ 118-109 victory in Game 1 of their NBA final with the Golden State Warriors was as good as it gets – at least outside box

lacrosse. “I’m a Toronto fan. I’m not a big basketball guy but I’m rooting for them – did they win tonight? Awesome,” said first-year Salmonbellie Austin Shanks. “Let’s go.That place (Yonge Street) must be blowing up.” Most of his teammates were following the hoop game, which was just beginning when players started showing up for the contest at Queen’s Park Arena. Although the NBA series was deadlocked 1-1 heading into Wednesday’s Game 3 (past the Record’s deadline), New West’s focus

was firmly on the local rink scene.They played in Langley yesterday, and are preparing to host Coquitlam tonight (Thursday), 7:30 p.m. at Queen’s Park Arena. Last week’s loss was just a complete rollercoaster ride, with New West trailing 7-2 early in the second period before peeling off five straight goals to tie it. The two teams appeared to be heading to overtime – and a chance to test out the new sudden-death, three-on-three period – when Maple Ridge won it on a controversial shot by Mike Mallory that was ruled to

have just beaten the shot clock buzzer, with 15 seconds left. Shanks finished with three goals and Lyndon Bunio chipped in a pair. Recording a goal and four assists each were Jordan McBride and Mitch Jones. Brendan Ranford also scored. The ’Bellies expect some re-inforcements in the form of the return of Kevin Crowley and Ian Hawksbee, both who sat out last season, and a healthy Logan Schuss, sometime this weekend.

’Bellies GM to retire

Richardson announces he’ll hang it up after 2019 Dan Olson

dolson@newwestrecord.ca

New Westminster Salmonbellies’ president and general manager Dan Richardson made official what he’d told members of his team last month, telling the Record on Monday that he would retire from his position following the 2019 season. “It’s been 16 seasons (as general manager), and the (club’s) 130th anniversary, so I think it’s time for some new blood,” said Richardson. “My wife (Linda) and I have our first grandson, my other son is getting married later this year, and I want to spend more time with them and travel a bit while I can.” Family played a large role in Richardson pursuing his passion of lacrosse, and is the main reason he’s decided to step down at the end of this season. Having just finished his first season as general manager of the Vancouver Warriors, the National Lacrosse

League team operated by Canucks Sports and Entertainment, Richardson says each requires a full-time commitment. Running a Western Lacrosse Association team, one that is expected to compete not just locally but also nationally, involves a yearlong commitment. Four trips to the Mann Cup championships, the most recent in 2017 when New West fell 4-2 to Peterborough, has made this year’s run all the more important. “When I took over the club we had three real goals, that were to put the pride back in the organization, fill the arena and win a Mann Cup.We’ve done well on the first two fronts and come close on the third. “We’re in a much better position than when I took over – the organization is strong financially and we have a good young core of players to keep this competitive for a while.We have the horses to get to (a Mann Cup) this year.”

Richardson anticipates his team, which has gotten off to a slow, 1-2 start after last Thursday’s 8-7 loss to Maple Ridge, will come together very quickly with the anticipated return of scoring leader Logan Schuss, veteran defender Ian Hawksbee and hometown star Kevin Crowley in the coming days. He’s working with the ‘Bellies executive to help find a successor – or two, as he believes the positions of president and general manager should be handled by two people, with each role requiring separate responsibilities. “My wife has been so supportive of me, of this lacrosse thing, but we’d like to enjoy life and do a little travelling. And now with the grandson, it’s like I’m rushing home every day hoping that he’s there. … My wife and I can’t spend enough time with the little guy.” For a more indepth version of this story, go to www.newwestrecord.ca.

MINICHIELLO, Michael September 25, 1924 to May 24, 2019 It is with sadness that we announce the passing of our dear father, Nono and Great Nono. MichaelMike was born in Civitanova Del Sannio, Italy and immigrated to Canada at the age of 13. He is pre-deceased by his adoring wife of 63 years, Josephine, and brothers Peter (Doreen) and John, and brother-in-law Domenic (Ann). Survived by his loving family; daughter Gloria (Ross), sons Joe (Robin) and Anthony (Elaine), grandchildren Michael (Cara), Keith (Christina), Lorinda (Bryan), Delaney and Quincy, great grandchildren Ethan and Lara, his sister-in-law Diane and brother-in-law Joe (Mary) Lastoria. Mike was a barber on Hastings Street in Vancouver and Burnaby for over three decades where he loved talking to people and debating politics. He was always very personable, friendly and had a great deal of empathy for people and animals . He told stories of tending to his family’s livestock in Italy. Mike took on a lot of responsibility at a very young age as his father emigrated to Canada. His second day in Canada he started shining shoes in downtown Vancouver. His next job was at the Hotel Vancouver eventually moving up the ranks to a pastry chef position (loved making pies). After that it was the Roundhouse (railway terminal) as a Blacksmith. Later, during the war effort, he worked at the shipyard building mine sweeper ships. He was always an avid vegetable gardener, took great pride in the quantity and quality of the tomatoes he and mom grew. During the last number of years, he lived independently at Rideau Manor where he made many friends with both residents and staff. He was always willing to lend a helping hand to his fellow residents. Our sincerest gratitude goes out to the staff at Rideau Manor as well as all the nurses and doctors who attended to him during his final days at Vancouver General Hospital. A visitation will be held on Thursday, June 6th from 6:00-8:00 PM at Bell and Burnaby Funeral Chapel, 4276 Hastings St, Burnaby.

Our Mother, Nell (Dorofay) MacLellan, lived an amazing 100 years and exactly 8 months. She was born in Saskatchewan on August 04, 1918 in a little area called Lily Vale. The nearest town was Pelly. Nell attended White Beech school until 8th grade, she was 14 and she left home to work on a ranch in Alberta cooking for a very large crew and looking after three children. In 1942, Nell married Bill MacLellan in an intimate ceremony in Toronto. The newlyweds had a twoday honeymoon in Niagara Falls before Bill had to return to the Army. [Bill passed away, a victim of COPD, in 2003]. When Nell moved to Vancouver, she completed her hairdressing degree in 1937 at Maxine’s School of Hairdressing and then started teaching hairdressing there. Bill returned from the war in 1945 and a few years later he and his father and uncles built a new home on Grandview Highway in Burnaby (Charlie’s Chocolate Factory is on this land now). Nell opened Nelene’s salon in the living room and slaved there for many years, sometimes working from 7am to 12am. She also worked as a nighttime answering machine operator in the Lee Building on Main Street, and then at VGH as an elevator operator and, also, ward clerk. Some of these simultaneously. The family moved to Kitsilano in Vancouver for about two years and then to the final family home on Capitol Hill. Her working career continued as she performed various surveys for York University around the Lower Mainland and even in Prince Rupert and when Bruce opened Mountain Gems in 1994, customers very much enjoyed her assistance. She also walked down Capitol Hill and up most days!! Nell always had room for visiting relatives and friends and could always make another place or more at the table for meals. And, in 1983, she made room for her daughter and beloved grandson, Duncan. Nell & Bill spent many vacations on fishing trips (mostly in BC) and saw more lakes and rivers and streams than one could imagine existed here. Nell enjoyed travelling and visited Hawaii, Mexico, the Cayman Islands, Scotland, Wales & England, the West Coast of the US and many, many places in Canada. In 1985, she ventured on her own to New Zealand and Australia for 4 months with just a single carry-on bag! In New Zealand she made life-long friends of Tonny & Harry, and Ross & Jan, and in Australia, Margaret & Bernie. After Nell moved down to her apartment, she kept busy with a small front garden and even more busy as other tenants let her do their gardening for them, and playing cards twice a week nearby at Confederation Seniors’ Centre and at Cameron Centre. Nell discovered her favourite pastime - any casino! In 2015, Jan missed a step and pushed Nell who was in front of her out of Nell’s front door, Nell broke her left hip. Although she recovered amazingly quickly, she gave up driving, and gardening, but still spent most days walking up hill to Mcdonald’s for coffee and ice cream; she often went to the cookie store on Hastings, taking cookies to the staff of Mountain Gems. She continued to take walks well into her 99th year. Our mother, grandmother, mother-in-law, sister-in-law, aunt, cousin and friend will be missed by us all. Bruce, Jan & Rob, Duncan & Aislyn; Erica & her family; Shirley, Bev & Craig, Judy & her family; Linda; Stefania; Kit & Peter & their family; Doug & Margaret, Jim, and Rick & Annette and all their families; Nellie, Diane & Phyllis & their families; Larry & Aya; Nadia; Wendy & Earl, Ethel, Evlyn & Orville, Robert & Verna, & Joe; Robert & Ann & their family; Don; Heather, Sharen & Audrey & their families, Jo-Anne, Leonard & his family; Mike & Pearl & their family; Mike & Yvonne & their family; Tatiana & her son Alex; Joy; Nieva [our godsend, she loved and looked after mom for many years, enabling her to stay in her home till the end] & Violeta who only came to us last year. And many more family and friends than I can list… Although Nell was beset with a, sometimes, sweet dementia, she seemed happy in her own home and we are very glad we didn’t succumb to the idea of a ‘home’. Nieva, Rob & Bruce took turns staying over at night. Jan arranged her care workers and took control of her medications. In the end, on Saturday, May 04, 2019, she walked over to her chair, sat down, and her heart stopped. A very peaceful way to leave this life and exactly what she wished for…

SLUIS, Mabel May 16, 2019 Mabel Sluis was a dedicated wife, mother, and teacher who passed away peacefully on May 16, 2019 due to a long term battle with cancer. She was a faithful believer, and dedicated resource teacher at John Knox for over 30 years. Many people who knew Mabel, say she lived a joyful, vibrant life. She is survived by her husband Norm, son Peter, parents, and sisters. A Celebration of Life will be held for Mabel on June 7th, 3pm at Coquitlam Alliance Church, 2601 Spuraway Ave, Coquitlam, BC.

During the last few years, so many of you contacted us specifically to ask about mom and check that she was doing okay, thanks for that caring and thank you all for your love for our mother, Janice and Bruce There will be Lunch at the Confederation Seniors’ Centre on June 08, 2019. Please RSVP to Jan at jmaclellan105@gmail.com by June 4th if you can attend.
