City releases annual list of top staff salaries Theresa McManus tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

Three City of New Westminster employees topped the $200,000 mark in 2018.

The city’s recently released statement of financial information (SOFI) lists the 268 employees earning $75,000 or more in 2018.

Those employees had remuneration of nearly $29 million and city business expenses of $370,463,

for a total of $29,190,814.

According to the report, city employees earning less than $75,000, excluding sworn police officers, were paid just over $26 million in remuneration and had expenses of $180,741.

All totalled, the City of New Westminster spent more than $55.8 million on employees’ wages and expenses in 2018.That compares to $54.9 million the previous year.

City Beat MEMORIAL

Olivia remembered though bench, donation

Theresa McManus tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

A young New Westminster woman’s legacy lives on through her family, friends and community.

Olivia Malcom was just 19 years old when she was killed in a motor vehicle accident in Ladner on June 2, 2018. She was heading home from a lacrosse game in Delta.

On Monday, family, friends and community members joined Olivia’s parents Tony and Bridget, and her sister Erica, at a vigil outside Queen’s Park Arena to share her legacy on what would have been her 20th birthday.

“The whole night is really just about gratitude and kindness,” said Bridget. “It’s sharing stories of Olivia and the impact she has left behind with everybody who cares about her.”

The Malcom family presented the Camp Kerry Society with a $5,000 donation to go towards its programs, which support bereaved families, people living with terminal illness and those impacted by death/trauma in the workplace.The society offers a youth program and hosts bereavement retreats for families.

“Olivia absolutely loved the outdoors,” Bridget said.

“For her to be able to give back and send these youth to camps, where they can deal with their grief and things like that, we just thought was very, very fitting.”

Heather Mohan, executive director of Camp Kerry and a registered clinical counsellor, appreciates the generous donation from the Olivia Malcom Kindness Foundation.

“Losing a child is one of

REMEMBERING: This bench in front of Queen’s Park Arena honours Olivia Malcom. the most life-changing and difficult experiences that any parent could ever face.

The fact that the Malcom family has chosen, in the midst of their own grief, to create a charitable foundation that honours and continues their daughter’s legacy of beauty and kindness, is a remarkable and generous act,” she said. “Their donation will go directly to help provide counselling and support for New Westminster children and families who are struggling to re-build their lives after the death of a loved one.”

Monday night’s vigil also marked the unveiling of a new memorial bench in front of Queen’s Park Arena – a place Olivia knew well from her years of playing and watching lacrosse games.

“We knew early on we would love to have a memorial bench at Queen’s Park Arena,” Bridget said. “Olivia was there 10 days after she was born. She has played in it, she has watched in it. Everyone welcomed her with open arms 10 days after she was born, when I brought her to her first lacrosse game.”

Following Malcom’s death, a GoFundMe campaign raised more than $110,000 for the Olivia Malcom Kindness Bursary.

“My goal was to hope for $2,500 being raised so we could do a $500 annual bursary. I said, after the five years, we will figure out how to raise more money,” Bridget recalled. “For it to far exceed $100,000 was beyond astonishing to us.

We had no idea that there

would be such an outpouring of love towards our daughter.”

In the years ahead, the Olivia Malcom Kindness Foundation will disperse the funds raised to ensure her essence of kindness and compassion carries on.

“What’s most important for us is that Olivia’s legacy continues far beyond our existence here on earth,” Bridget said. “This foundation being created has been beyond heartwarming.”

In addition to Olivia’s mom, other speakers at

Monday’s gathering included her friend Nicole Del Grosso and two of Tony Malcom’s colleagues at New Westminster Fire and Rescue Services, firefighters Alasdair Dunbar and Chris Clapton.The New Westminster Firefighters’ Charitable Society has assisted the family with planning the memorial bench and making a donation to the Camp Kerry Society – a charity that the society has supported in the past.

New Westminster Secondary School graduating students Farouk Ibrahim and Erica Malcom received the inaugural bursary, which is meant for students who exemplifies what Olivia stood for – her kindness and her ability to encourage others to be their best.The family asked that Olivia’s sister be excluded from the selection process, but the scholarship bursary committee was steadfast in its belief that she should receive it “They were like, ‘Well, we know what you asked of us, but she absolutely personifies exactly the criteria you have set out and we really feel strongly she would receive it.’We said, ‘Can you please just give us 24 hours to think on this?’ So, we accepted – only under the condition we can also award one other bursary.

They said they really wanted Erica to receive the inaugural award and then one of her classmates was awarded the other bursary,” Bridget said.

“Again, that’s from the foundation. Moving forward it will be one annual bursary in the amount of $2,000 that will be awarded for many years to come.”

Police are still investigating Malcom’s death and no charges have been laid.

CANNABIS

Two proposals headed to a public hearing later this month Theresa McManus tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

Two proposed cannabis shops in New Westminster are heading to a public hearing this month.

On June 24, council will consider applications for two of the five initial cannabis shops being considered in the city: Muse Cannabis at 532 Sixth St. and Westcanna at 710 12th St. After receiving 22 applications for

cannabis retail stores, the city ranked the applicants and selected five applications in different commercial areas for consideration at a public hearing.

While five applications have received first and second reading, the city has been holding off on scheduling public hearings until it receives the results of the financial integrity and security program checks from the Liquor and Cannabis Reg-

ulation Branch. Having received the financial integrity and security checks for two of the five applications, the city has been able to schedule public hearings for those applications, said Emilie Adin, the city’s director of development services.

Mike Watson, a planner with the city, said the city has received checks back from the province for about six of the 22 applicants, but only two of the five that

have been given first and second reading.Thus far, he said the LCRB hasn’t identified any concerns with any of the applications.

“Once rezoning is complete, there are a number of steps for the applicants to complete, including finalizing the process with the LCRB, finalizing the business license, obtaining building permits for any tenant improvements, ordering stock, hiring staff,

etc.,”Watson said. “As much of this is outside of the city’s control, we don’t know what that timeframe would be.”

While it’s possible these two stores could open in the fall if council approves the rezoning applications,Watson said many of the remaining steps are outside of the city’s control and the city doesn’t know what the timeframe for those steps would be.

If council supports the applications following the June 24 public hearing, there is still a series of approvals from the city and the province required before shops are able to open.

Those steps include: getting LCRB approvals in principle; receiving city building permits for things like signs, etc.; having a business licence; and getting LCRB’s final approval of the application.

Council to consider a pay increase

Theresa McManus tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

A consultant has recommended city council increase its pay to offset changes to federal taxation changes.

A report presented to council Monday recommends the mayor’s annual salary be increased to $130,000 (from $106,034) and councillors’ remuneration be upped to $50,000 (from $43,180) to ensure their pay is comparable to similar municipalities and reflects the impact of recent tax changes.

The city hired an external consultant, Sainas Consult Inc., to review council remuneration in response to the federal government’s decision to eliminate the onethird tax-free municipal officer’s allowance in 2019 and make all of their remuneration fully taxable. In addition to reviewing council remuneration to consider whether it should be adjusted to ensure their net pay

remained the same as before the tax changes, the review was also intended to ensure the remuneration is appropriate compared to other municipalities with similar populations and expenditures.

The staff report states council pay is “in line with the comparison market” in most areas, but modifications are recommended in two areas – the amount of remuneration, and the method, frequency and timing of reviews of remuneration.

“These rates would ensure that the mayor and councillors continue to be paid in line with the median of the comparison municipalities,” said a staff report.

“It is also recommended that the city should continue its current practice of providing annual adjustments based on the Consumer Price Index for the region in the years between reviews.”

As part of the review, New Westminster mayor

and councillor remuneration was compared to Coquitlam, Maple Ridge, Port Coquitlam, Delta,West Vancouver, Langley Township, the District of North Vancouver and the City of North Vancouver.

The consultant found that New Westminster mayor and councillors’ remuneration “was very close to the middle of the market” in 2018. It noted, however, that six of the eight comparison municipalities had increased the gross compensation for their councils in order to maintain the same level of net pay given the taxation changes and the other two were intending to do the same.

In addition to remuneration, New Westminster councillors also received an addition $1,000 per month for acting mayor pay (with councillors usually serving this role twice a year) and an annual vehicle allowance ($1,200 for councillors and $2,400 for the mayor.) The consultant found the acting

In April, council approved a motion by Coun.

Patrick Johnstone to ask the Union of B.C. Municipalities to support amendments to the Financial Information Act that would permit local governments to report salaries and expenses in the SOFI report by job title instead of employee name.

“I don’t think that creates a respectful workplace,” he said when putting forward his motion. “I think it creates a situation where we are opening up our employees for harassment.”

Johnstone believes the report serves a purpose of providing transparency in how the city spends money, but he thinks the same objective can be achieved by listing employees by their job title, i.e. Planner 2.

“We have a lot of people who are not executives, people who work in the planning department, people who work in engineering – $75,000 is not an executive wage anymore,” he said.

Council received the consultant’s report and the staff report at Monday’s meeting, but tabled consideration of the reports and recommendations until its June 24 meeting. Staff has recommended that council: approve the recommended adjustments for its remuneration retroactively to Jan. 1, 2019; approve continuance of the city’s current practice of providing annual CPI adjustments to council remuneration in the years between reviews; and approve a city review of the remuneration every four years in the months before an election, with the next review to be done in 2026.

Opinion OUR VIEW

Too much hyperbole in the recycling depot debate

When it comes to the issue of the New Westminster recycling depot closing sometime in 2020, there has been a lot of hyperbole from upset residents.

And some statements that feel like they aren’t realistic.

For instance, Kristian Davis, the city’s supervisor of solid waste and recycling, discussing the driving time for New West residents when they have to start using the new Coquitlam transfer station and recycling depot.

“The added five minutes’ drive time, if you are coming from somewhere further west of the depot, is probably not too cumbersome when you think of the new facility being able to accept far more items and being a one-stop shop rather than having to go to multiple locations,” Davis said.

It wasn’t a terrible thing to say, but the words “not too cumbersome” and “bailey bridge” don’t typically go together in the minds of drivers.

That seems like a stretch.

In a letter to the city, Metro Vancouver said the “weighted average driving time” in kilometres from New West to the new facility is 5.5 kilometres. In terms of the “weighted average driving time” in minutes, New West is 14 minutes from the facility.

Now, we’re not sure how accurate those figures are.

Perhaps it matters at what time of day you go because the area around the bailey bridge can get extremely congested.The numbers also don’t account for what

kind of waiting time New West residents will face at a new regional facility, compared with dropping by a small, local facility.

Even supporters of the move have admitted in letters to the editor that going to a facility in Coquitlam will be less convenient than dropping off items at the current depot.

So, perhaps we should dispense with trying to minimize the inconvenience.

Having said all of this, just because it will be more inconvenient doesn’t mean

New West shouldn’t have done this deal.

In fact, the opposite is true.The layout of the future New Westminster Aquatics and Community Centre facility prevents the recycling depot from staying at its current location.

A report to council said staff investigated alternative locations for a recycling depot but found it wasn’t cost-effective to establish a new facility in New West because of the high cost of land.With the new regional facility, the city’s annu-

al cost will be $44,000 – far less than the $113,000 it cost to operate its recycling depot in 2017.The city also doesn’t have to pay a whopping price tag to build a new facility.

Taxpayers are always criticizing city politicians for being wasteful, and yet when New West council finds a deal that will actually save the city money and offer more recycling services, they get roasted for it.

Maybe give council a little credit for making a smart financial decision.

MY VIEW C. BALANKO

Prayer needed at this intersection I have written to (the City of NewWestminster) on a few occasions and called two or three times to make a complaint about the intersection of Richmond Street and Miner Street. It needs a crosswalk, yellow lines painted on the road, a speed bump, rumble strips, a light post with a flashing sign overhead – something to alert drivers driving up and down Richmond Street that there is a speed limit, visibility is limited by cars and pedestrians are entering the intersection.

This intersection is dangerous for the many people who cross it by foot or by car, turning left, right or going straight through – it’s a gamble, requires a prayer and a good tromp on the gas pedal.

Sure, it may not be a high-collision area per ICBC statistics, but I say to you: be proactive and preventative and trust that the many near-misses have been by the seat of someone’s pants and whatever higher power they’ve engaged.

I live on the southwest corner of this intersection, and daily I hear cars honking at pedestrians or cars entering into this intersection.

In fact, on June 6, 2019 at approximately 12:50 p.m., I was crossing the intersection (eastbound on Miner) to make my way to the SkyTrain station and a jackedup truck came racing up Richmond and was not showing any signs of slowing down. As we were in the middle of the road, it was like an intimidation tactic or a chance at chicken with

two pedestrians. In fact, he actually sped up a little when he saw us, as if to say, “I’m bigger than you.”True story. It happens more often than not.

Cars coming down Richmond from Cumberland are travelling too fast and don’t see the tiny, little yellow sign on the right side of the road attached to the light post that states 30 km/h.

This is a high-traffic area.

It’s on a bus route.There is a business in the area that requires very large rigs to deliver supplies. Richmond Street is controlled by a traffic light at the bottom at Columbia and a four-way stop sign at the top at Cumberland. It has parked cars on both sides of the road, which by the way have no signs at the corners of Richmond and Miner to say no parking X number of feet from the corner, hence there are many occasions that parked cars are butting right up to the street corner.

I understand from a neighbour that some “city guys” were recently looking at the street in the front of the Pen building, where TransLink stops. He was told they were looking at the area for a possible crosswalk in that location.What? That is not the proper area for a crosswalk.With the speed at which cars travel up and down this road, the intersection at Richmond and Miner is the section of road that needs to be addressed for safe foot and car access, and the rest of Richmond Street will be the better for it.

C. Balanko is a NewWestminster resident.

Graffiti taggers get erased

New Westminster police and homeowners were seeing the writing on the wall, and they weren’t happy with it. Caught up in a Lower Mainland-wide trend, the Royal City was seeing a spike in graffiti, especially in the Sapperton area. A specialist in graffiti identification said only two or three people were responsible for much of the damage, including two prolific taggers who went by the handles Zeus and Nyte.

I am done with the place I was born and raised Editor: In 18 short days, I am leaving my birth city New Westminster.

I am done.

So long.

After 64-plus years living in the city and spending 31 years working for the city, I am moving to Vancouver Island. I am done with the noise, traffic, construction, density, high prices, complaining (especially those complaining about the damn trains on the river) and certainly the politics in how this city is being run now.

I couldn’t even bother to vote anymore because no one really impressed me (except you, Chuck).

Though the recycling centre is across the street from where I live, and the move to Coquitlam is not such a big deal to me, it is, however, the wrong decision.

We need to have our own and convenient (depot for) the taxpayers of this city. That proposed location is a mess in trying to get to it, and it will result in more recyclable items in the landfill. I am glad we are getting a new pool, but surely in that entire space of land after the pool is built, you would be able to accommodate a recycling centre. Council needs to think this one over again, plus a few other recent decisions.

So I bid you adieu and I can only wish things improve in the Royal City, but it will be without me.

The Comox Valley will be my new home, and I am so looking forward to it. Goodbye New Westminster and all who have made it great.

Ted Usher, New Westminster

I’d rather use money for the Q to Q ferry to help fund a local recycling depot Editor: Why are we paying tax dollars for the Q to Q ferry service when these taxpayer dollars could be used to fund our own recycling depot?

How many people in New Westminster use the depot and how many people use the “popular demand ferry” – which is an extra fringe. The recycling depot is not a fringe and it will be an inconvenience to drive to Coquitlam – it’s a ludicrous waste of taxpayer dollars.

Why don’t we get to vote where we want our taxpayer dollars, rather than wasting it on a ferry?

And as far as the ferry system goes, we have TransLink buses that have wheelchair access, strollers, etc. and many routes over the Fraser to help all ages.

People will not go the extra miles to go to Coquitlam, so they will put it in the garbage and all the recycling efforts we have been vigilantly embracing over the years will quickly be forgotten.

Let’s get moving in the right direction.

D. Cruickshank

River otter dies in an illegal fishing trap Theresa McManus tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

A river otter’s life came to a tragic end in an illegal fishing trap on New Westminster’s waterfront.

Queensborough resident George Holm was walking on the boardwalk with his dog Zoe on Sunday when he came upon an upsetting scene at the west end of the boardwalk, near the children’s playground.

“An animal control officer was dragging what at first appeared to be a sack with something inside, but as I came closer I saw that it was a three-ring and net minnow trap, and inside it was a dead, fully mature otter,” he said. “Someone had baited the minnow trap and set it in the river by the railway bridge where an otter had then smelled the bait and had swum into the trap.With no exit except for the entrance, and unable to turn itself around, the otter had drowned.”

Illegal trap: This otter was found dead in a trap on Sunday on the New Westminster waterfront. PHOTO CONTRIBUTED

Holm said there were many families enjoying the playground on Sunday afternoon, and he can only

imagine the impression the sight of the dead otter may have had on them, especially young children.

“Several people, including myself, asked what it was, and upon hearing that it was an otter that had drowned in a trap I know how upset that made me,” he said.

Aaron Hilgerdenaar, the city’s supervisor of street use enforcement and animal services, said a local resident called the city on Sunday morning to report a deceased animal in a trap.

While the incident was reported as being a beaver, he said it turned out to be a river otter.

“Although we routinely respond to calls of deceased domesticated and wild animals, retrieving a deceased river otter from a trap in the river is not a normal call,” he said.

Hilgerdenaar said the city has been in touch with the Department of Fisheries and Oceans about this situation. Because river otters are a freshwater species, he said they fall under the responsibility of the

B.C. Conservation Officer Service.

Murray Smith, inspector for the Lower Mainland for the B.C. Conservation Officers Service, consulted with the Department of Fisheries and Oceans about the incident.

“Department of Fisheries and Oceans says it is a trap brought from China to catch whitefish in the Fraser River,” he said in an email to the Record. “This type of trap and fish trapping method are illegal under the federal Fisheries Act.” Anyone with information about the trap is asked to call the B.C. Conservation Officer Services’ Report All Poachers and Polluters (RAPP) line at 1-877-9527277.

“There are people fishing from the boardwalk almost daily, but they at least use a fishing rod with a line and a baited hook.The person placing the trap in the river, in my opinion, is either too lazy or too greedy to do

even that and needs to be identified and stopped before they do it again,” Holm said.

“It is also vital to get the word out that this happened, just that it is illegal so others won’t also try to fish this fashion.”

While this particular trap was intended for fish, it’s not illegal to trap river otters – under certain circumstances.

“We actually have a trapping season for river otters.

It’s between Nov. 15 to Feb. 28. It’s not necessarily designed to trap in the Fraser River and the banks of New Westminster, but there are areas of the Lower Mainland, some of the more rural and forested areas, that we actually do have a season for otter,” Smith said.

“First of all, there is enough of a population to sustain a trapping season – the pelts can be used for furs.That’s a lawfully authorized activity under the Wildlife Act of British Columbia.”

Men get 10 years each for brutal home invasion

Cornelia Naylor cnaylor@newwestrecord.ca

A New Westminster home invasion that saw a 65-yearold man beaten, hit with a hammer, cut with a knife and then left unconscious and alone has resulted in 10-year jail sentences for two men.

In the early morning hours of July 6, 2016, robbers entered a house in the 400 block of Queens Avenue through an unlocked back door, according to court documents.

Inside, the homeowner – a man grieving his recently deceased wife – was roused from sleep by one of the intruders who demanded his wallet and bank card.

For as long as an hourand-a-half, the homeowner was beaten, slashed and threatened while two or more strangers in their early 20s looted his home of valuables, including his late wife’s jewelry.

At one point, the 65-yearold told the man who was

beating him that he didn’t care what happened to him because his wife was dead, court documents say.

“You better not let the other guy hear you say that,” was the man’s reply, according to the homeowner’s testimony.

The attack left the homeowner with a concussion, broken nose, damage to his ear, a broken tooth, broken ribs, and bruises and cuts to his face and body.

Two men charged in the home invasion were found guilty by a B.C. Supreme Court jury last June.

The pair had been tracked down with help from security video footage that captured one of the men trying to use the stolen bank card at a New West convenience store and a Surrey gas station less than 30 minutes after their victim’s 911 call.

Stephen Smith, who was 21 years old at the time of the crimes, was handed a 10-year prison sentence in January for breaking and

entering, robbery, aggravated assault, unlawful confinement, possession of stolen property and fraudulent use of a credit card.

Last month, his co-accused,Victor James, 23 at the time, was sentenced to 10 years for all the same crimes except the fraudulent use of a credit-card.

In his reasons for sentence, B.C. Supreme Court Justice Paul Riley noted James had the right to address the court before his sentence was delivered, but that James had made that impossible.

“Mr. James, who is in custody, repeatedly resisted efforts of jail staff and sheriffs to bring him to court and, when appearing by video, was so disruptive of the process that I had to remove him from the courtroom and proceed with sentencing in his absence,” Riley wrote.

James’ sentencing had already been delayed at least three times because of similar behaviour.

Official Community Plan Amendment Bylaw No. 8122, 2019 and Heritage Revitalization Agreement Bylaw No. 8068, 2019 and Heritage Designation Bylaw No. 8069, 2019 for 647 Ewen Avenue (HER00668) PROJECT DESCRIPTION: An application has been submitted to allow the development of five townhouse units at 647 Ewen Avenue. Two units would be located within the existing Slovak Hall building. Three units would be located in a new addition at the rear of the hall, facing onto Wood Street. The development would be permitted through Heritage Revitalization Agreement Bylaw No. 8068, 2019 which would also allow an encroachment onto City property to accommodate heritage stairs and a porch, and zoning relaxations for height, site coverage, setbacks, and parking.

The exterior of the Slovak Hall would be restored, and the building legally protected with Heritage Designation Bylaw No. 8069, 2019. Bylaw No. 8122, 2019 would amend the text of the (RL) Residential - Low Density designation in the Official Community Plan to permit infill townhouses as part of Heritage Revitalization Agreements in Queensborough neighbourhoods, to be consistent with mainland New Westminster.

WHAT IS OFFICIAL COMMUNITY PLAN AMENDMENT BYLAW NO. 8122, 2019 ABOUT? The City is bringing forward an Official Community Plan Amendment to the (RL) Residential – Low Density land use designation which would add policy language in support of creative approaches to retaining heritage assets.

Mayor Jonathan X. Coté Looking back on 2018, I’m amazed at the progress we made on big projects that all at their foundation aim to improve the lives of people who live and work in our city. We continued to move forward on affordable housing initiatives, engaged with our community on choosing a design option for the future aquatics and community centre, undertook a large library renovation project, and took the Q to Q ferry into the pilot phase following a successful demonstration period. I am so proud of what our staff, community members, and volunteers have achieved this past year and appreciate that our staff in every department continue to work tirelessly on our many projects and initiatives while providing excellent customer service every day.

Our dedication to increase livability in our increasingly expensive region continues as we broke ground on two small sites affordable housing projects at 43 Hastings Street and 630 Ewen Avenue last spring. A modular supportive housing project at 838 Ewen Avenue was also approved last year with occupancy expected by the end of 2019. We also set the groundwork in 2018 for the recently implemented Rental Housing Revitalization Initiative, which protects tenants from evictions related to building renovations.

Additionally, we are working on a Memorandum of Understanding with BC Housing to further our collaboration, including with our non-profit partners, in support of enhanced housing affordability.

We also spent several months gathering public input and feedback on the proposed program and facilities for the future New West aquatics and community centre and pursued the development of two design options based on the feedback. To date, a schematic design phase has been

completed by HCMA Architecture + Design and an advisory panel will be working to provide feedback to City staff as we move into the construction phase.

The main branch of our public library underwent major renovations throughout the whole of last year, including new reading and study spaces, installing energy efficient lighting, improving accessibility with installation of automatic doors and lower level washrooms, and making major infrastructure improvements throughout the facility. The project is now complete, with an official reopening celebration set for June 2019.

Based on the success of the demonstration service and feedback from 2017, we launched a full scale, fully accessible pilot Q to Q ferry service in May of 2018. The daily service accommodated people of all ages and abilities, with over 60,000 passenger trips taken last year. Due to popular demand, the pilot was extended indefinitely and we hope to be able to provide this Queensborough to Quayside connection as long as we can.

Thank you to everyone on our staff and in our community for all of your hard work this past year. Let’s make 2019 a great one too!

Jonathan X. Coté MAYOR

Exercise is the best medicine This New West exercise clinic is changing the way local people think about the gym SPONSORED CONTENT

I

t’s been open for less than a year, but a new exercise clinic in New Westminster is already changing the lives of local residents.

This is no ordinary gym however. In fact, LIVE WELL Exercise Clinic New Westminster likes to describe itself as the “anti-gym,” a place where how you feel is more important than how you look and where people get a lot of support to achieve their goals.

a smooth calendar and with LIVE WELL I have the opportunity to move my session with as little as four hours’ notice, so there is no use it or lose it.”

Susan has already started to see the benefits from her time at the clinic; she says “I have seen a reduction in my blood pressure, greater cardio endurance, and a huge desire to return every time.”

LIVE WELL is a medical fitness clinic that’s built on the belief that exercise is medicine.

Specializing in safe, supervised exercise and healthy-lifestyle coaching for people who have chronic health conditions or want to prevent them, it helps its members make sustainable changes to their lifestyle to live healthier and happier lives.

Members come to LIVE WELL Exercise Clinic for many different reasons, whether to lose weight, lower cholesterol, have more energy, combat stress or to continue playing tennis until they’re 80 years old.

So how is it doing? We asked three local residents to tell us how LIVE WELL Exercise Clinic has changed their lives.

“I had previously tried gyms but always went alone and felt invisible and uncomfortable.”

Doreen and Sam enjoy working out together at LIVE WELL Excercise Clinic

LIVE WELL staff creates a supportive environment and we have lots of fun.”

discovered LIVE WELL and became a founding member at the New West location.

Lynda had known for some time that she needed to take action to improve her health; however a knee replacement had made it hard for her to get going.

I was greeted by caring, welcoming staff, which made it a safe place to be totally honest about health issues and concerns.

There was no judgement at all. LIVE WELL’s staff create a supportive environment and we have lots of fun. The members are like “Your Tribe” and we all support each other.”

Lynda immediately began to see benefits thanks to a personalized plan that was tailor made to specifically meet her needs and abilities.

After a lifetime of being moderately active particularly in various forms of dance, I suffered three strokes in one week due to high blood pressure,” Doreen explains. “I was dancing Can Can, tap and Scottish Country prior to having the strokes, but my neurologist told me during one of my appointments that I should stop due to my health.”

Doreen wasn’t enthused by her previous experience with gyms and found doing yoga or pilates in her own home demotivating, then she discovered LIVE WELL.

“It has been almost six months and my blood pressure is down to normal levels, my blood tests revealed that my cholesterol is down and my family doctor could not be happier. I have lost on average two pounds per month, which is a bonus. My strength, flexibility and mobility improvement is amazing to me.”

Lynda has much praise for the staff at LIVE WELL.

One of the things that Doreen likes most about LIVE WELL are the personalized expertise and support she receives – a fundamental principle of LIVE WELL Exercise Clinics. The New West location is staffed by clinical exercise physiologists. Experts in their field, the team create personalized plans specifically tailored to each member’s needs.

They also monitor vitals during sessions and work closely with members’ doctors to create plans that are geared towards improving their health, something that is key for someone like Doreen.

“I had gained quite a lot of weight from being so sedentary and I was at the highest weight I had ever been in my life,” she says. “My blood pressure was up, cholesterol was up and I was feeling very depressed.”

The friendly and supportive nature at the gym is also important to Doreen. “I love the smallish groups and the support and love we are able to extend to each other. I look forward each day to greetings from some, hugs from others.”

Lynda knew that a traditional gym setup was not the best fit for her, “they can be intimidating, the pressure to wear trendy clothes and to look fit,” but then she

“LIVE WELL fits perfectly into my busy lifestyle.”

“I heard all about LIVE WELL from my father who was a founding member of the Langley LIVE WELL Clinic,” Susan explains.

“His enthusiasm for the program sparked an interest by my sister who in turn joined the Langley clinic. I was pleasantly surprised at the commitment that my family had made to LIVE WELL and I wanted get on board!”

When LIVE WELL opened their New West location Susan was one of the first members to sign up. And something she enjoys the most about her membership is the flexibility to fit her visits in around her busy schedule.

Susan enjoys the flexibility to fit her visits in around her busy schedule.

One of the things that she attributes her success to is the setup, which priorities small classes and individual support that’s tailormade to each member.

“I enjoy the fact that only a limited number of people are in each session,” she says.

“That means that any help or guidance you need is easily available from the trained fitness professionals while we work on our own program which has been tailored to our own specific needs.”

Community Salmonbellies pay tribute to longtime volunteer Theresa McManus

AROUND TOWN

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

The New Westminster Senior Salmonbellies paid tribute to their longtime friend and volunteer Phil Leeman at their home opener at Queen’s Park Arena.

Community members were invited to visit with Leeman’s family and friends and share their favourite memories of the New West man who was a fixture at Queen’s Park Arena for many years at the May 23 game. Leeman was a dedicated volunteer in the Lower Mainland’s lacrosse and hockey communities.

“As the Senior Salmonbellies’ 130th season is about to start, they will be missing a longtime volunteer and family member and a well-known character and pun-master from our community. Phil Leeman, who has been in charge of the timekeeper’s bench for over 24 years for all his beloved ’Bellie teams, lost his long battle with cancer this past January,” Pat Downey, the Salmonbellies’ volunteer coordinator and game day operations, said in an email to the Record. “Phil loved being involved in his community and watching his children grow up and be involved in minor sports. He then continued on with Junior and Senior A and B Salmonbellies, as well as the Burnaby Lakers and Coquitlam Adanacs.”

The B.C. Green Party held its 2019 convention and annual general meeting at two local venues from June 7 to 9 in New West.

“This is the only event of its size in 2019 for B.C. Green supporters to gather, exchange ideas, and renew friendships; and help build momentum ahead of the next provincial election,” said a press release from the Green party.

The convention’s June 7 kickoff at Inn at the Quay included a welcome reception, hosted by Jonina Campbell, the party’s deputy leader and 2017 candidate in the New Westminster riding, and Kinsale Philip, the NewWest riding association’s youth chair.

On Saturday, the convention moved to Anvil Centre, where events include a youth leadership panel, Courtyard Cafés, and an update from the B.C. Green Caucus about its work in the legislature, and an evening gala where B.C. Green Party leader Andrew Weaver delivered the keynote speech.

The weekend wrapped up with the party’s annual general meeting on Sunday at the Anvil Centre.

POLITICOS HONOURED Five civic politicians who retired after serving the community for a combined total of 97 years were guests of honour at a recent celebration attended by family and friends.

Retired city councillors Bill Harper and Lorrie Williams and school trustees Michael Ewen, James Janzen and Kelly SladeKerr were thanked for their years of service to the community at a gathering at Taverna Greka in April.

They opted not to seek reelection in last October’s municipal election.

To mark their retirement from politics and celebrate their achievements, each politician received a scale model of the WOWWestminster public art (located in Westminster Pier Park) that was made by local furniture artist Rick Carswell.

Along with a capacity crowd of family and friends, other politicians in attendance included Mayor Jonathan Cote, New Westminster–Burnaby MP Peter Julian, MLA Judy Darcy and former MP and MLA Dawn Black.

WOMEN WANTED An organization that been advocating for better lives for women, families and communities for more than a hundred years is looking for new members.

The New Westminster Council of Women is hosting a strawberry lunch on Wednesday, June 26 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Wesley Manor, 815 Kennedy St. (just off Eighth Street between Third and Fourth avenues.) In addition to getting more information about the organization, women will also hear a guest speaker from Aunt Leah’s Place, which provides support and life skills training for teens aging out of foster care.

“The National Council of Women of Canada is a network of advocacy groups across the country. Founded in 1893, it is one of Canada’s oldest women’s organizations,” said the New Westminster Council of

Women in an email to the Record. “Local and provincial chapters continue to make a difference by empowering women to work together to improve the lives of women, families and communities.”

The strawberry lunch is

$5 per person. Because it’s a catered lunch, the organization needs to confirm numbers to the caterer and requires confirmation by June 20 at lesleyh@shaw.ca or 787-865-5971.

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.

NOW ACCEPTING NEW PATIENTS

We provide outstanding dental care for your teeth.

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.

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.

Community Trustees question commitment to food program Dustin Godfrey

dgodfrey@newwestrecord.ca

New Westminster school trustees are skeptical of a five-year commitment to a program that seeks to bring equitable access to nutrition in schools as the district considers expanding the program.

The current nutrition program has been running since February this year in Queen Elizabeth Elementary, Queensborough Middle and Ecole Qayqayt Elementary schools, and staff say they’re already seeing positive effects of the program.

The program includes a hot and cold menu with gluten-free and allergy-sensitive options and culturally diverse menu options, and for families in need, who self-declare and are verified by the school principal, can get a subsidy for the program.

For several trustees on the education policy and planning committee committee, the main sticking point moving forward was a fiveyear commitment to the

program expected by the caterer.

In particular, trustee Maya Russell questioned whether the district could take the program in-house for the same or a lower price. However, staff said a centralized in-house program would not be feasible with the district’s available space.

Trustees also questioned whether the district had fully considered its options on a catering partner for the program.

But staff said they’re not likely to get a better deal – in a request for proposals to kick off the pilot program, staff said they were disappointed with all of the other options that came forward.

“It was not something that I would have felt proud putting my name behind,” said outgoing school nutrition co-ordinator Cyndi Adams in a presentation to the committee.

The program is running in partnership with Ready Maid Meals, a Burnabybased catering company run

by Chef Gary Hovey.

“It’s been a really wonderful relationship that we’ve had with the caterer. I have been continuously impressed by the commitment that they’ve had to the program,” Adams said.

Despite only four months of data so far, director of instruction programs and planning Quirine Gamblen said staff believe the program is sustainable and could be brought to the other schools in the district.

University of B.C. researchers are also monitoring the program and gathering data.

“The UBC researchers … are also reporting that there’s a bit of a social culture around the food delivery to classroom,” Adams said. “There is a little bit of trading going on in the classroom with some things that they brought from home, and they’ve developed a currency system around it. Different foods do have different value in trading at school.”

Gamblen said the data being gathered is showing that the program is also

gaining popularity among staff and parents.

“We’ve also heard that families find it easy to access the partial subsidy,” Gamblen said.

The subsidy is intended to be accessible without stigma to the student – parents can declare their need for the subsidy, and all of the food comes into the school without any indication that the student received the subsidy.

“What we’re seeing is that even parents who require some subsidy are also wanting to pay. So most of our families who are accessing the subsidy program are accessing partial, paying at least a dollar [per day],” Gamblen said.

If the current agreement being sought is approved, the district would be paying for $15,500 in equipment to hold hot food, while the caterer would also need to in-

YOU’RE INVITED TO AN OPEN HOUSE JUNE 19, 5 - 7 P.M. Wesgroup invites you to discuss a proposed Zoning Bylaw Text Amendment for the Comprehensive Development zoning (C-CD-3) that currently is in place for the Brewery District. The proposed text amendment would convert 18,581 sq. m.

(200,000 sq. ft.) of the existing Health Services density at Building 8 (230 Keary Street) to Omnibus Zoning (same uses permitted on the Building 7 site at 268 Nelsons’ Court). The remaining 9,290 sq.m. (100,000 sq.ft.) of density will stay as Health Services space. The text amendment also proposes to increase the maximum permitted building height for Building 8 from 59.4 m. (195 ft.) to 97.5 m. (320 ft.)

In exchange, Wesgroup is proposing to convert all residential space in Buildings 5 and 7 to secured market rental housing. The conversion will create over 26,942 sq. m (290,000 sq. ft.) of secured market rental housing without any increase to the existing density entitlements for the site.

It would also see a $60 per day delivery fee waiver if 200 meals are ordered district-wide per day on average.That would increase to $125 a day if an average of 550 meals are ordered district-wide starting Oct. 22.

With Adams leaving the district, staff hope to have a renewed contract with the caterer for the service by the end of the school year.

SHRED-ATHON

WHAT’S HAPPENING? The New Westminster Firefighters’ Charitable Society is holding its annual shred-athon on Saturday, June 15 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the Canada Games Pool parking lot, 65 East Sixth Ave. WHO CAN COME? Residents and small businesses are invited to bring their confidential papers to the shred-athon.

All items will be shredded on site. Shredding is by donation.

“It’s a great community event. It always brings a lot of people out,” said firefighter Eric Picher.

“Everyone brings their sensitive documents to shred, and it gets shredded immediately on site right in front of them. It’s by donation. It’s one of our bigger events, and it’s grown year after year since its inception.”

ANYTHING ELSE? Along with providing an opportunity for folks to shred their old documents, the event is a chance to enjoy a barbecue and live music.

“Save-On-Foods is donating some things for our barbecue – it’s also by donation,” Picher said. “The Lions Club will be accepting clothing donations. The high

school band will be playing.

We are going to have some G&F Financial tents out that will provide shade for those who want to enjoy the band and eat some barbecue.”

Off-duty and on-duty firefighters will be out in force at the shred-athon.

“We are going to have lots of members that are volunteering on their time off. They will be there to help take the documents from their vehicles and shred them. There is also going to be some on-duty crews, so there is going to be lots of stuff going on,” Picher said of the event held next door to the number 1 fire hall.

“It will be a great time, and hopefully a great sunny day to come out.”

WHAT IS THE NEW WESTMINSTER FIREFIGHTERS CHARITABLE SOCIETY? Through the society, New West firefighters host a variety of events to raise money for charity, including a Christmas tree chipping, a charity hockey game with the Vancouver Canucks Alumni and the shredathon. Money raised goes to various local causes, including Christmas hamper programs, local charities, meal programs at local schools and the pediatric ward at Royal Columbian Hospital.

The British Columbia Cycling Coalition is hosting the June 17/18 summit, in conjunction with the anticipated release of the province’s first-ever active transportation strategy.The conference aims to bring together planners, engineers and experts from local and provincial governments, industry, non-profits and academia to explore how to make active transportation for pedestrians, people with disabilities and cyclists an essential part of all communities across B.C. “The B.C. Active Transportation Summit will focus on helping communities find ways to enable everyone to use active transportation year-round for their daily trips,” Richard Campbell, executive director of the B.C. Cycling Coalition, said in a press release. “The new provincial strategy will be incredibly important to making walking, rolling, and cycling more convenient for everyone.We’re so excited to be able to host this event in the anticipation of this new plan, soon to be fully released, which will ultimately set the tone for B.C.’s future.”

More than 200 people

are expected to attend the two-day conference at Anvil Centre, where they’ll attend presentations on topics like inclusive active transportation and cities. Panel discussions will be held on a variety of issues, including breaking down barriers to active transportation, and interactive workshops will tackle topics like active transportation for all ages.

Community Trustees discuss ‘life-changing’ child-care plan Dustin Godfrey

dgodfrey@newwestrecord.ca

The NewWestminster school board could become the 32nd in the province to endorse universal $10-a-day child care.

The NewWestminster School District’s education policy and planning committee passed a motion recommending the school board endorse the campaign, following a presentation from Coalition of Child Care Advocates of B.C. spokesperson Sharon Greg-

son.

“It’s not unusual for families to pay more than $1,200 a month for access to child care. If you’ve got a three to five year old, easily paying $700 or $800 a month, and even paying over $2,000 a month for child care for one child,” Gregson told the committee. “So, very unaffordable.”

Marcel Marsolais, president of CUPE local 409 representing support staff at the school district, offered his own support for the campaign at the meet-

ing. He cited the experience of some of the members of that union, who have accessed one of the 50 universal child-care prototype sites selected by the B.C. government.

Those sites offer child care for $10 a day per child as a pilot project, testing the waters for expanding such a service throughout the province. No NewWestminster child-care sites were selected for that pilot, but four sites in Burnaby, four in Coquitlam and six in Surrey were selected.

“Some of your ing these spaces on employees have alour land.” ready had their Trustee Mark kids involved in Gifford, who some of these pibrought forward lot projects and the motion to rechave noticed a sigommend school nificant difference board endorse the in their life.

Absofrom what he’s lutely life-changheard the protoMark Gifford ing,” Marsolais type sites have had trustee told the commita “night and day” tee. “It helps them improvement on do those things that they the quality of life. weren’t able to do before.

Gregson noted the expeSo I would urge the board rience in Quebec, where she to look seriously at providsays affordable child care

“more than pays for itself” with the number of singleparent families on income assistance dropping by 55 per cent between 1996 and 2008. She also cited a 2017 study prepared for the Early Childhood Educators of B.C., which anticipated a GDP growth of two per cent and employment increasing by 2.8 per cent.

If the school board supports the campaign, it would join 31 other B.C. school districts and 56 municipalities, including the City of NewWestminster.

Sanctuary schools policy still needs ‘work’: trustee Dustin Godfrey

dgodfrey@newwestrecord.ca

The NewWestminster School District still has work to do on clear messaging around its sanctuary schools policy, officials said at a recent committee meeting.

The sanctuary schools policy was enacted in March

2017, and the education policy and planning committee heard a brief update on sanctuary schools in a recent meeting.

The policy follows a basic tenet – every child is entitled to an education, regardless of immigration status – but officials said they are still working on making that

message clear to families of potential students.

District leadership staff received training on the policy and office staff at schools received training as part of their orientation at the beginning of the year, Superintendent Karim Hachlaf told the committee.

Trustee Maya Russell

noted that there were “specific directives” from the sanctuary schools steering committee, which hasn’t met since June 2018, that still have not been realized.

“I think we actually have some work to do in terms of our implementation … around prominent signage in school offices, admission

D A TH 4R 23

offices and on the board’s website,” Russell said.

Hachlaf said he wanted to see another steering committee meeting on the policy in order to look at some of the next steps.

“There’s a few components in front of us that consider our phone registration system as a school district

and what that might look like to make sure there is a consistent message around registration, including our sanctuary school policy,” Hachlaf said.

A steering committee meeting will be held before the end of the year to work on a plan moving forward.

THEATRE

Mae West’s Sex in the spotlight for Sips ’n’ Scripts When it was staged in 1927, an ad cautioned: “If you cannot stand excitement, see your doctor before visiting Mae West.”

Consider yourself warned when City Stage New West brings Mae West’s Sex to life at Anvil Centre as part of its Sips ’n’ Scripts reading series.

The series, dubbed Censored! Forbidden Classics of the Wicked Stage, allows audience members to take part in each play reading, alongside professional actors from City Stage. Each play was once banned, and

all of the storylines deal with women’s sexual and financial agency.

This year’s series started in April with a reading of Aristophanes’ Lysistrata, featuring Bailey Soleil Creed in the title role.

Sex is up next, on Friday, June 14 at 7 p.m.The play, described as a “melodramatic conflagration of lust and wit,” landed Mae West in jail for obscenity and corruption – and launched her legendary, controversial career.

The reading is free, but seating is limited, so any-

one who wants to attend must register by calling 604-527-4640 or sign up online at anvilcentre.com/ events/sips-n-scripts-2019.

After a summer break, Sips ’n’ Scripts will return on Oct. 11 with George Bernard Shaw’s Mrs.Warren’s Profession. A familyfriendly, all-ages edition on Dec. 19 will feature a reprise reading of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol.

Community Why we need to talk openly about miscarriage Mommy’s GROUNDED Bianca Bujan

When I ran into an old friend the other day, she asked me how old my youngest child was now.

When I told her, she seemed confused and then said, “Oh sorry, I thought she was the same age as my youngest, but I forgot that you miscarried that pregnancy.”

At first, the reminder hit me like a slap in the face.

For years, it had felt as though I would never forget the moment when I went for my 16-week ultrasound with my third pregnancy, only to be told that there was no heartbeat.

Until only a few months ago, one of my children would casually mention “the baby that died in my belly” in conversation, causing me to smile back at them, calmly, while choking back tears.

Every once in a while, I would come across a post on social media that referenced a “rainbow baby” (baby born after a miscarriage), and my heart would break a little, remembering the baby that I had carried,

whose face I never got to see, and how difficult it had been for me to accept my following pregnancy.

At that moment, when my friend brought up my pregnancy loss, I realized that the pain, heartbreak and incredible sense of loss that I had once felt so deeply had actually diminished.

I had stopped waking up in the middle of the night in a cold sweat, after reliving that dreadful day at the ultrasound appointment in a dream. I felt a bit – relieved.

But my shock when hearing those words uttered aloud was also an important reminder that we need to talk openly about miscarriage. On average, 20 to 25 per cent of pregnancies end in miscarriage, yet we rarely hear about it.

When I found out about my pregnancy loss, I didn’t just feel devastated, I felt ashamed. I had told everyone about the pregnancy. I had chosen names.

I hadn’t been aware of the stats. I hadn’t known about the physical pain, the surgery that it would require, or the lasting scars – both physical and emotional – that I would be left

with after the loss. I also didn’t know how many people were able to have healthy pregnancies following a miscarriage.

I wrote openly about my experience only a few days after it happened. It was my way to grieve. I wanted to share my story with others to let them know that they were not alone, and I wanted to remember how I had felt in that moment.

I thought it was important to not only document my feelings, but to share them with others. And the best thing that came out of sharing my story, was the many readers – friends, family members, acquaintances, coworkers, strangers – who had been through the same thing. Learning that it was common, that I wasn’t alone in my pain, helped me to heal in a very big way.

It seems taboo to talk about pregnancy loss, but the more we share openly, the more we can possibly help others to do the same.

And perhaps they, too, will one day heal.

Check out a Chromebook Alina Gherman

editorial@newwestrecord.ca

When we launched our Chromebook-lending service last year, we expected it would be well received.

But we didn’t know that it would become so successful, with all the devices being regularly requested and constantly checked out. As a result, we’ve increased the number of devices available at our main branch and added a set to our Queensborough branch as well.

Everyone who has an New Westminster Public Library card with borrowing privileges can check out a Chromebook, which is a laptop that runs on Google’s web-based Chrome operating system.The devices are primarily intended for browsing the Internet or completing tasks that require the use of a browser such as taking online courses, filling out online forms.

They can also be used to access Office Online, the webbased version of Microsoft

Office, for such products as Word Online, Excel Online, and PowerPoint Online.

The Lenovo N23 Chromebooks can be checked out on a first-come, first-served basis.Two different lending periods are available: seven days (regular loan) or three hours (express loan). Information on device availability based on your preferred lending period can be found by searching the library catalogue.

The Chromebooks are Wi-Fi enabled, and when used in the library or any other area in New Westminster where City Public WiFi is available, they connect

automatically to our public Wi-Fi network.

Another technology available at the library is the Kobo ereader. Last year we upgraded our collection of Kobo ereaders to Aura One devices and pre-loaded them with new and popular titles.This month we are introducing a new Kobo service to our users, who can now request specific titles in ebook format. If you are new to ebooks and ereaders, this is a great way to explore and learn more.

For more information, visit the library in person, email AskUs@nwpl.ca or call 604-527-4665.

Powerplay gives ’Bellies an edge NewWest turns up offence in topping A’s Dan Olson

dolson@newwestrecord.ca

A sharp powerplay and some sharpshooters all proved a potent mix for New Westminster, as the senior A Salmonbellies blitzed the Coquitlam Adanacs 13-7 last Thursday.

Connecting on six of eight extra-man chances was an advantage that the visiting Adanacs couldn’t overcome, as New West vaulted to a 6-2 lead in the first period, cashing in four powerplay goals.

It began the same way in the second period, as New West tallied two more extra-man markers for a six-for-six run and an impressive 8-2 lead.They’d add another goal – this time, at even strength – before the Adanacs pushed back.

While Coquitlam would be able to match the `’Bellies on offence the rest of the way, they were unable to get any closer than five goals.

In his second game back in ’Bellies colours, Kevin Crowley tallied four goals, three with the extra man, while Austin Shanks cashed in for three powerplay markers and a pair of assists.

Jordan McBride, with two goals and two assists, and Brandon Goodwin, with a pair, provided ample support on offence. Jeff Henrick and Justin Salt also tal-

lied.

Alexis Buque made 27 saves in the win, while Coquitlam’s Christian Del Bianco faced 63 shots.

It was the team’s second straight win, and showed again they were able to bounce back after their first loss on the floor – 9-8 to Maple Ridge two weeks ago – and a previous loss off it, when they were stripped of a 11-9 victory over Nanaimo due to playing an ineligible player.

That setback in the Hub City was due to an obscure rule which makes import junior players ineligible for call-up if their home team, in this case Whitby, has a senior A team that would hold firstrights of refusal for call-ups.

New West general manager Dan Richardson admitted he’s never heard of the rule applying before, but took full responsibility for the mistake.

“From what we knew and what (New Westminster junior A general manager Warren Goss) knew, there were no conditions on using this player as a call-up,” said Richardson. “It was a mistake, we put it in the rearview mirror and move on.”

New West, which improved to 3-2 with the win, heads to Victoria on Friday, before returning for a June 20 game against Nanaimo at Queen’s Park Arena.

More Maas nets big win

Erik Maas’s last-second goal capped a rollercoaster showdown for the New Westminster junior A Salmonbellies on Tuesday.

In a game that saw the lead change seven times, New West held on to edge the PoCo Saints 8-7 at Queen’s Park Arena.

Maas’s goal came with one second remaining in regulation with an extra attacker on the floor. It was also the veteran forward’s third goal of the game. Chipping in with two goals each were Cam Garlin and Will Malcom, as New West picked up its third win in a row.

The ’Bellies, who improved to 8-4, host Victoria on Sunday, 5 p.m. at Queen’s Park Arena.

Royals restock volleyball court to compete in PacWest Dan Olson

dolson@newwestrecord.ca

Fresh off a top-four appearance at the Canadian Collegiate Athletic Association women’s volleyball championships and a B.C. silver medal, the Douglas College Royals have bolstered their bench with an eye on taking the next step.

The Royals, coached by Jeff Ross, unveiled its new recruits for the 2019/20 season – high school grads Jayce Day, Rebecca Green, Sienna Mastromonaco, Grace McGillivray and Abbie Smith, and college transfer Sam Dodds.

Mastromonaco, who is graduating from St.Thomas More Collegiate, is excited to be joining the PacWest powerhouse.

“I really like the coaching and the players,” the Burnaby native said in a press release. “Everyone made me feel welcome from the first practice and it felt like a good fit for me.”

The Knights co-captain this past season, Mastromonaco was named B.C. Catholic senior girls volleyball tournament MVP after leading her team to a secondstraight title.

Ross called Mastromonaco “a

very technical player with a high volleyball IQ.” McGillivray, an outside hitter from Langley, adds to the Royals depth at a number of spots. “(McGillivray) is versatile and can play multiple positions and has strong character,” Ross said.

She was among the top-15 senior girls volleyball players named by varsityletters.ca in its annual university coaches poll of graduating B.C. high school athletes.

Smith, of Surrey, is hoping to contribute immediately to Douglas’s run to a third straight national championship tournament.

“My goals for this next season are to get into into the weight room more and get stronger to improve my game and make me more of an impact player.” “(Smith) is a calm and composed athlete who works extremely hard and we look forward to watching her develop into a premier middle in the PacWest,” added Ross.

From Courtenay, Green is expected to take on various roles as a first-year Royal. “(She) brings a lot of character and work ethic into our program,” the coach said. “Her athleticism

allows her to be very versatile.”

Day, a setter, and Dodds, a middle blocker, are from northern Alberta. Ross believes both bolster key areas for the squad. “(Day) is a very determined and smart setter,” he said. “She brings a lot of competitiveness, character and a strong work ethic to the program. … (Dodds) is a strong, athletic middle blocker. Her three years of experience (at the Northern Alberta Institute of Technology) will bring a lot of knowledge to our team and we look forward to seeing her excel in our environment.”

Born in occupied Krakow, Poland during the turbulent end of World War II, immigrated to Canada growing up in Vancouver’s westside, educated at UBC, devoted to best friend, partner and wife, Carol; Paul was taken away peacefully, but far too soon, after a fierce and courageous battle from complications following a stroke.

A consummate host, Paul enjoyed nothing more than being surrounded by good friends in complex conversation over a table topped with great food and significant wine. A love of epicurean exploration found him equally at home in Tuscany, the Mosel and Napa to name just a few favourites. With the sun shining nothing bested an alfresco lunch for Paul, holding court with the many people in his life on the ‘perfect patio’ of his beloved Hart House in Burnaby.

Paul will be lovingly remembered by his wife Carol, son David, brothers Fred (Patti), Ted (Sue), nephew Tyler (Christina) and nieces Alexandra (Francis) and Samantha.

The family would like to extend their heartfelt appreciation to the wonderful and caring staff of North Shore Hospice.

A Celebration of Paul’s Life will be held on Sunday, June 23, 2019 between 2:00 and 4:00 p.m. at Hart House Restaurant on Deer Lake, Burnaby.

RATCLIFFE, Wendell Marvin

In loving memory of a very special Father, Grandfather, Great-Grandfather, Greatgreat Grandfather, who passed away early morning, at St. Vincent’s Brock Fahrni Veterans Pavilion, where he received several years of excellent care from the dedicated staff, with our thanks. He found a challenge in his artwork where he made each of us a living memory.

Dad gave to all he touched in life a strong encouragement to be an individual, believe in what you want to accomplish by volunteering, as a strong spokesperson, in roles of leadership, in causes he believed in; eg. BCGEU, Longshoremen’s Union, NDP Government, and Vancouver’s Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Classical Chinese Gardens, Fall Prevention Group and many other Senior’s Initiatives. The City of Burnaby recognized his thousands of volunteer hours in his community with the Citizen of the Year Award.

Dad is survived by his older sister Elise, daughters; Wendy, Marvene, stepdaughters: Lynne, Elaine, sons: Albert, Jerome, 23 grandchildren, 34 greatgrandchildren, 7 great-great-grandchildren.

Pre-deceased by his amazing spouse, Marjorie Young; daughters: Jauncey, Maribet, Dwight, son: Maurice, and 3 grandchildren.

No service by request. In his honour, please send donations in his name to a favourite charity. https://www.dignitymemorial.com/obituaries/north -vancouver-bc/wendell-ratcliffe-8725605
