AFTER NEO-NAZI FLYERS FOUND

City sees two rallies protesting bigotry By Cornelia Naylor and Cayley Dobie editorial@newwestrecord.ca

People protesting bigotry and hate have taken to the streets of New Westminster more than once in the last few days. On Sunday, about 100 people gathered at Hyack Square and marched down Columbia Street to the Columbia SkyTrain station chanting, “Hey hey! Ho ho! Neo-Nazis have to go!” The demonstration was organized by the Coalition Against Bigotry in response to neo-Nazi posters found at a bus stop around Sixth Street and Fourth Avenue on Jan. 21. One of the posters featured a swastika while the other stated, “It’s always going to be us vs. them. Join us before they stomp you.” The march took on even more significance after the deadly mosque shooting in Quebec City the same night. Continued on page 3

The finish line is now in sight for folks taking part in the update to New Westminster’s official community plan.

The plan, which has been in the works since January 2014, includes policies, visions and goals to guide the city’s growth, as well as a land-map showing the types and locations of land uses to be encouraged in the next

25 years. On Monday, council supported in principle the draft official community plan and the land-use designation map. Some of the highlights include: ! Laneway and carriage

to create new small-scale ground-oriented housing forms in each neighbourhood by applying these designations in “strategic locations” throughout the city. ! The Brow of the Hill is designated as ground-ori-

ented infill housing. An earlier version of the plan had contemplated a residentialtownhouse designation, but this has been changed because of concerns it could encourage the premature Continued on page 7

Up Front NEWS

Locals stand vigil at mosque in Burnaby Shocking massacre in Quebec spurs NewWestminster residents to rally outside a Burnaby mosque Tereza Verenca

tverenca@newwestrecord.ca

When Trudi Goels heard the news that a gunman killed six people at a Quebec City mosque Sunday night, she knew she had to do something. The New Westminster resident and a handful of others drove to Burnaby’s Masjid al-Salaam and Edu-

cation Centre that evening, and rallied outside to show their support.They brought a sign that read “Stronger Together” and used Twitter to get the word out. But even though the impromptu meet-up was small and lasted for about an hour, Goels said it was more than she ever expected. “They were honking their horns, waving at us, giv-

ing us a thumbs up. A gentleman stopped his car, got out, came over and thanked us. He was Ismaili Muslim. He was on his way to work. He’s lived in Canada for 30 years and he said this meant something to him,” she said, adding the centre’s imam, Yahya Momla, also dropped in to say thanks. “It was good to see how many people cared,” Goels

It was good to see how many people cared added. The Quebec City mosque shooting happened during evening prayers. More than 50 people were inside when shots were fired, killing six

people and injuring 19 others, according to media reports. Police arrested two suspects after the shooting. But on Monday, authorities said only one of the men was a suspect while the other was a witness.The alleged gunman has been identified as 27-year-old Alexandre Bissonnette, who has been charged with six counts of

first-degree murder and five counts of attempted murder. Meanwhile, the Burnaby imam is encouraging the local Muslim community not to give into fear. “This was an isolated incident. It was an act of cowardice.We should still be strong as a community and stand united, and show Continued on page 6

‘How are you going to make us feel safe?’ Continued from page 1 “That’s why we’re rallying, because of this fear,” organizer Imtiaz Popat told the Record. Popat said residents who witnessed the march seemed surprised both by the demonstration and the idea of neo-Nazi activity in New West. “I think the fact that these people are recruiting in our ’hood is a shock to them,” he said. “Us marching down Columbia is a wake-up call that ‘Hey, these people are here.’” Last Thursday evening, meanwhile, more than 200 people converged on New Westminster City Hall before marching to Queens Avenue United Church. Organized by New Westminster MLA Judy Darcy, #NewWestUnited featured speeches from community leaders, including: ImamYahya Momla of the B.C. Muslim Association; Reverend Emilie Smith from St. Barnabas Anglican Church; Chief Rhonda Larrabee of the Qayqayt First Nation; New Westminster MP Peter Julian; Mayor Jonathan Cote; and others. “It was so moving; it was powerful,” Darcy told the Record. “I think the speakers, every single one of them I think touched people deeply, and the community was clearly looking for a way to express themselves against the detestable hate literature that was posted … Coming together the way we did makes us so much stronger.” Everyone had their own, personal reason for attending the event, Darcy said. For her, it was the memory of her father. He was Jewish. He fought in the Second World War and was a prisoner of war. By the time the war ended, he’d lost his sister, brother-in-law, niece and father in the Holocaust. A few years after the war, he and his family immigrated to Canada. He never told his kids, including Darcy, about his Jewish heritage until a few years before he died. “My father was right there in my heart,” Darcy said of the moment when she learned about the posters. Moving forward, Darcy hopes events like #NewWestUnited won’t be needed again,

but she admits that’s unlikely. “Obviously, we hope we don’t have to (rally), but we know we’ll need to,” she said. “Wherever and whenever the need arises.” While demonstrations are important,

however, Popat said minorities, especially Muslims, are now looking to public officials for something more tangible in light of an apparent surge in neo-Nazi activity. “I think that’s the key thing,” he said. “All

these people are speaking out and ‘Oh, we want to have dialogue,’ but how are you going to protect us and how are you going to make us feel safe? That’s my question.”

City, union reach deal

The City of NewWestminster and the Canadian Union of Public Employees Local 387 have reached a new four-year collective agreement. The collective agreement, effective Jan. 1, 2016, goes

until Dec. 31, 2019 and includes wage increases of 1.5 per cent in 2016, 1.5 per cent in 2017, two per cent in 2018 and two per cent in 2019. According to a city press release, bargaining began in

June 2016 and the parties reached a tentative agreement in late December. The release said both sides worked hard for a “fair, reasonable and sustainable collective agreement.”

‘We all need to take action’

Continued from page 3 individuals likes this that we’re not going to be scared of them,” said Momla. He noted he learned of the tragedy on social media while celebrating the 50th anniversary of the B.C. Muslim Association at a banquet hall in Surrey. “It’s very disturbing. It seems that we have always known that bigots and racists exist in our society, but for the most part, they’ve always been on the sidelines,” Momla told the Record. The new Donald Trump administration seems to be “empowering and emboldening these individuals,” he said. He noted while local

Muslims are more vigilant than normal after what many are calling an act of terrorism, they are not scared. “The community understands this is an isolated incident and we understand this is not the sentiment of Canadian people. ... My message would be not to be afraid and to come out in large numbers to your places of worship and move on with your lives.That would be the most powerful message we could send,” said Momla. Meanwhile, Goels said she’s a little nervous right now given Trump’s new immigration ban.The executive order bars citizens

of seven Muslim-majority countries from entering the U.S. for the next 90 days and suspends admission of all refugees for 120 days. Goels told the Record her kids are scheduled to go on a band trip to San Francisco in April, and because of what has unfolded in the last week, she emailed the school to ask if the destination could be changed to a domestic one. “With such a diverse population of the school, I feel like we shouldn’t go to a country where all of our students aren’t welcomed,” she said. “This is pure racism and it’s horrifying.We all need to take action, whatever it looks like.”

City ‘Light at the end of the tunnel’ Continued from page 1 demolition of the existing affordable rental housing stock. One of the proposals the city had been considering was designating the west side of Fifth Street, from just below Sixth Avenue to 10th Avenue, as residentialtownhouse, which would allow small-scale townhouse developments to be created near transit and commercial services.The revised plan has removed the townhouse designation on Fifth Street based on feedback from that neighbourhood. “When you see the revisions here, it does show the city listens to people’s input and does do public engagement and it’s not just a show. It’s real and it happens,” said Coun. Jaimie McEvoy. “Overall, I am happy with the changes.” Coun. Mary Trentadue said she would have been more supportive of a landuse designation that permitted creative, new housing forms such as small townhouse developments on Fifth Street. “Everyone has a different opinion and a different need and expectation, but it’s our role to think about the future and what the city is going to look like in 20 years or more, what kind of housing is going to be required,”

she said. “The continuation of single-family residences is a nice idea, but many people can’t afford to live that way and I think they are going to be even less affordable in 20 years. I would like us to have been a bit bolder in our designations, but I appreciate how we have gotten to this place.” Coun. Patrick Johnstone said the city needs to accommodate 30,000 new residents in the years ahead and needs to provide a diverse, affordable, familyfriendly housing stock. “The only thing I am afraid of is we are not doing enough,” he said. Coun. Chuck Puchmayr, however, believes the plan includes some “aggressive” changes, particularly to the Brow of the Hill neighbourhood and the area around the 22nd Street SkyTrain station. Mayor Jonathan Cote said he sees “a collection of thousands of voices” when he looks at the land-use map. “For the most part I am pretty satisfied and happy with the end product that we have been able to work through.We are at the end stages.We can see the light at the end of the tunnel,” he said. “There’s definitely still opportunities for minor modifications and chang-

es along the way, but when I look at this map I think we are getting pretty close and I think we are ready to have those final conversations with the community to say: Did we get this right? Did we hear this right? Is this the best path forward?” Cote said the plan will likely be reviewed in 10 years and the community may be open to concepts it’s not ready to support today.

WHAT’S NEXT?

The city will hold two drop-in open houses as part of the next round of community consultation. ! Saturday, Feb. 25 from noon to 3 p.m. at Century House. !Tuesday, Feb. 28 from 5 to 8 p.m. at the New Westminster Public Library.

WHEN WILL THE OCP BE APPROVED?

Following a round of public consultation in February, staff will make revisions based on the feedback in March, consult with some of the city’s advisory committees in March and April, present the revised plan to council for first and second reading in May and hold a public hearing in June. If all goes according to plan, the OCP will be adopted in June.

ANYTHING ELSE?

Staff will be having a workshop with council to discuss the new infill house design guidelines. The new OCP will allow laneway houses and carriage houses as permitted uses in single-family neighbourhoods. Guidelines are also being created for townhouses and rowhouses.

Opinion OUR VIEW

How are you going to make us feel safe? “How are you going to make us feel safe?” The person who said this was one of the organizers of one of the protests against bigotry and racism that was held in the city last week. He was questioning what political leaders could do to protect those who are targeted by hate and make them feel safe. It isn’t enough, his question implied, to get out and protest – more concrete political action is needed. He may indeed be cor-

rect. But what we witnessed last week and on Sunday night when New West citizens stood up, marched and spoke up, was the fundamental basis for everything that follows. Canada has hate crime laws, but laws cannot change minds.To be sure, laws provide an invaluable sense of justice and protection, but when a young man in Quebec can be radicalized and believe that fellow Canadians of a different faith deserve to die,

then, surely, laws are not enough. There are very few substitutes for actually learning about other people by listening to them and hearing their stories. Sometimes it seems like the only real way to create change. Thankfully, in this same newspaper, where we must read about the hate and fear, we also see the hope. Young people are learning through school programs in New Westminster. They share stories of heri-

tage, of differences, of commonalities. On page 27 of today’s paper you can read more about a fascinating exercise designed to open students’ eyes to the history of Canada’s indigenous people.This is not just one heartening story; it is very representative of a majority of young people who are being given a much more truthful and personal education today. Our city’s daycares are also filled with young people from so many differ-

ent ethnic, economic and religious backgrounds that it is already unimaginable for them to hate each other based on some insignificant difference. The political leaders who demonize whole groups of people, who pit poor people of colour against poor white people, who tell us that those who have less deserve less, or those who have more deserve more, may find followers among those who have been hurt in the past and are looking

for some place to unleash their pain and anger. But when good people march, speak up, stand up and show up to join hands with those who are being scapegoated, the hatred looks as small and powerless as it actually is. Nobody can make anyone feel safe. But we can all feel a whole lot better knowing that we are surrounded by folks who will not stand by and be silent in the face of hatred and intolerance.

MY VIEW KEITH BALDREY

Horgan charts a new direction

It only received scant media attention, but the speech recently given by NDP leader John Horgan on climate change could prove to be a groundbreaking moment for his party and for B.C. politics as a whole. Speaking last week to a left-wing think tank that included prominent environmentalists on its program, Horgan outlined how he will closely align his party’s election platform to bold initiatives to fight climate change. In doing so, he acknowledged this issue hasn’t always been front and centre for him, given his own background working in the energy field in government in the 1990s. Back then, he was part of an NDP government that aggressively pursued the expansion of an oil and gas industry, including pipelines and fracking. But, he now says, things have changed, and so has he. In the 1990s, he said, then-NDP environment minister Joan Sawicki was talking about the growing problem of climate change, but he chose to ignore her. “I was working for the minister of energy at the time, and I heard her. I understood it. But it wasn’t inside me. And when I left government, I didn’t think a lot about it,” he told the crowd. But he’s evidently thinking a lot about it now, and he has taken the position that it is the most important issue of all. All NDP policies presumably have to be based on this commitment. He admitted his party has

had trouble with issues such as the carbon tax and other measures created to fight climate change but insisted a new and changed approach is needed. He offered what he called “a simple pledge” to the appreciative green crowd. “I promise a climate plan that will ensure emissions go down – that we will reverse the trajectory of pollution growth that the B.C. Liberals have put us on,” Horgan said, adding that a “fair price on pollution” is needed and that a series of other policies must be adopted in short time. Presumably, this ends any chance the NDP could ever officially embrace any LNG project, given the increase in greenhouse gas emissions that come with them. It may also weaken its support for the mining industry. On the other hand, Horgan is pledging to focus on things like transit, tougher regulations, solar panels, energy-friendly buildings and more. All in all, his speech made it crystal clear the NDP is trying to make a clean break from a past where it was closely aligned with the natural resource sector and its unions. The new approach may cost the party some old allies, but it may also gain it support from would-be B.C. Green Party voters.Whatever the result at the ballot box on May 9, it’s clear Horgan is taking his party on a path not even dreamed of when it last formed government. Keith Baldrey is chief political reporter for Global B.C.

Fire at old courthouse The top floor of the old courthouse on Clarkson Street went up in smoke on Feb. 7, five days before a B.C. Heritage Trust official was scheduled to tour the building.The 1891 landmark had been gutted by the great fire of 1898 and had long existed under the shadow of the wrecking ball. One witness to the more recent blaze said he’d heard vagrants living there had been evicted by police earlier in the day and might have returned to torch it.

Opinion INBOX

Pattullo Bridge revamp plans make no sense Dear Editor: To all commuters who use the Pattullo Bridge: I would like to start with the fact that TransLink and the Mayors’ Council want to have the people pay for a new Pattullo Bridge (via tolls and taxes) to replace the 80-year-old four-lane bridge with a new four-lane bridge, expandable to six lanes with no plans to expand to the sixlane bridge. It makes no sense at all to replace a four-lane bridge with a four-lane bridge. The new bridge should be six lanes and expandable to eight lanes in the future. Currently, the New Westminster side of the Pattullo Bridge roadway has not been upgraded in the last 80 years, and the new Pattullo Bridge does not have any plans on improving the roadways leading up to and away from the bridge. I was at the public forum about the Pattullo Bridge on June 18, 2016, and I would say that I was surprised that so few people came out to give input or even find out about what TransLink is wanting to do with the people’s money. What TransLink offered were two options the public could choose from. Both only had four lanes, and I asked where is the third option, which is that the bridge start with six lanes. The answer was that this is what the Mayors’ Council

has chosen. So once again the Mayors’ Council, with TransLink, is forcing their options on to the people rather than letting the people give input as to what option or as to what is wanted. The Pattullo Bridge is over capacity and yet the Mayors’ Council once again does not want to build what is needed, which is a six-lane bridge that is expandable to eight lanes, with all the roads leading to and from the bridge updated to handle the six lanes and allowing for easy upgrade to eight lanes. I hope that all of you people that commute over the Pattullo Bridge get out there and contact your mayors and TransLink and tell them you want a six-lane Pattullo Bridge expandable to eight lanes because anything less than that is a complete waste of taxpayers’ money. Also, it is going to be an other seven years before the Pattullo Bridge is replaced once they have made the final decision on which six-lane design they chose. Which it should have been replaced 20 years ago. You can go to TransLink’s website to take a survey about the Pattullo Bridge at www.trans link.ca under Plans and Projects.

Clinic offers care for hepatitis C patients Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@newwestrecord.ca

“When you think of hepatitis C, what do you think of?” That’s a question hep C patient advocate Daryl Luster said he has posed to a lot of politicians. “Drug users and addicts” is the answer he almost always gets back, he said, and he believes that stigma has made it “convenient” to ignore the needs of people living with the disease. A new specialized clinic opening in New Westminster this month, however, has given him one more reason to hope attitudes are changing. “I’m encouraged by it,” he told the Record. “Any step like this, for me, is huge considering where we were five, 10 years ago.” The Columbia Hepatitis Clinic, across East Columbia Street from Royal Columbian Hospital, hosted an open house last month and will provide medical

and nursing assessment, Fibroscan testing, treatment and monitoring for hepatitis C – a blood-borne virus that can lead to liver cancer and liver scarring. “It was just a question of need,” said Dr. Ken Atkinson, one of eight doctors launching the clinic. “There was a hole in the care for hep C patients.” Until now, there hasn’t been a formalized hep C clinic outside of Vancouver, and patients in New West and the Fraser Valley have been treated ad hoc, according to Atkinson. “A family doctor would make a referral, pick an individual doctor who may or may not treat hep C and refer them on,” he said. “There wasn’t any kind of formalized process.There wasn’t any specialized nursing involved.There wasn’t any kind of centralized place.” A key component of the new clinic will be a specialized nurse, who will help patients negotiate the ex-

tensive paperwork needed to secure funding for costly medication. The nurse will also help educate patients about the importance of the medication, its success rate, its sideeffect profile and the importance of compliance. Drugs to cure hep C have improved dramatically over the last two years, according to Atkinson, from a success rate of about 50 to 60 per cent with lots of side effects and toxicity in about 2014, to about 90 to 98 per cent with minimal side effects today. But the new drugs are expensive. The overall cost of providing, administering and monitoring one of the new drugs (Harvoni) is close to $140,000 per patient, according to a provincial estimate cited in a recent CBC story. That price comes with a lot of paperwork from government and private health insurers, according to Atkinson.

funding. As for cost, Luster questions the government estimates, saying they’re inflated. “What that has done is made it easy to say, ‘Oh, we can’t afford it.’We would argue we can’t afford not to,” Luster said. “People are getting sicker, and it isn’t just liver disease that is the problem.” While intravenous drug users might be responsible for most new hep C infections, Luster said they make up only about 15 per cent of the infected population in B.C., which is estimated at about 70,000. “They need support too,” Luster said, “but the majority of people living with hepatitis C are not drug users … The majority of people living with hepatitis C in British Columbia and North America and globally are people, like myself, in their 50s and 60s.” The Columbia Hepatitis Clinic is located at 410-301 East Columbia St.

tain degree of liver scarring qualify for Pharmacare coverage, and a Fibroscan or biopsy is needed to prove the extent of the damage, according to Atkinson. Until now, he said, hep C patients in New West and the Fraser Valley would have to travel into Vancouver to get a scan. That patients have to wait until their liver is damaged to be covered for treatment is absurd to Luster. “With cancer, we say, ‘Treat early,’” he said. “With diabetes, we don’t say, ‘Let’s wait until your arm falls off or your leg or your foot.’” If left untreated, hepatitis C can lead to liver damage, liver cancer and the need for a liver transplant. Ideally, Luster would like to see hep C medication covered for all people living with hep C regardless of liver damage. In the meantime, however, he said B.C. should follow Quebec’s lead and reduce liver fibrosis (scarring) as a criteria to access drug

Community A CLOSER LOOK

Spreading our wings: ‘It’s a different world’ Retired ornithologist Rob Butler hopes the city will adopt an official bird strategy and join a growing movement Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@newwestrecord.ca

Retired ornithologist Rob Butler doesn’t see New Westminster quite like the rest of us. While other people eating lunch at the Quay might notice a bunch of birds flying away, for example, he will spot the flash of a peregrine falcon in the mix picking off a pigeon for its own meal. Peregrines feed heavily on pigeons, Butler says, and after a lifetime of studying and observing birds, his eyes and ears are finely tuned to pick out these things. “It opens up a new dimension on the world,” he says. “I’m always surprised by this – that I see all this stuff all the time, and I’m talking to my neighbours, and they say, ‘Where? What? Show me.’ It’s a different world, and people aren’t aware of it.” Walking through Glenbrook Ravine or Queen’s Park, Butler doesn’t even need to see birds to know which species are hanging out there. “Most of it is hearing,” he says. “It’s mostly bird hearing rather than watching, so you have to know all the songs.” It’s not something you can un-hear after you retire, of course, and Butler has spent considerable time after his 40 years as a research scientist with the Canadian Wildlife Service studying local bird life.

He’d like the city to make use of his work and adopt an official bird strategy – like Vancouver and Delta have – but city officials haven’t shown much interest so far. “They have been slow on the uptake on this,” Butler says. With birding and birdbased tourism among the fastest growing recreational activities in the world, he says the Royal City is missing the boat, especially with the 27th International Ornithological Congress set to come to Vancouver in August 2018. The massive conference has been held every four years since first being hosted in Vienna, Austria in 1884 and is expected to attract thousands of ornithologists to the area. “People from all over the world are coming,” Butler says. New West won’t attract a lot of attention for exotic species, he says, but people are increasingly interested in what cities are doing for their birds. “If we had a bird strategy, it might be different because there’s people who are going to be looking at this and how are the cities designing them to make them more bird friendly,” Butler says. Essentially, a bird strategy is more about mindfulness than big projects, according to Butler. Continued on page 14

Fascinating New West bird facts: "73 breeding species found in New Westminster: 32 confirmed, eight probable and 33 possible breeders. "The greatest species diversity is associated with parks. "Nine of the 10 most frequently observed local species are similar to those reported from Vancouver: the European Starling, Northwestern Crow, House Sparrow, House Finch, American Robin, Black-capped Chickadee, Rock Pigeon, Violet-green Swallow and Spotted Towhee. The Northern Flicker was seen frequently in New West but not Vancouver.

PRE-OWNED CLEAROUT

What’s next for May Day? cdobie@newwestrecord.ca

There will be some changes to New Westminster’s annual May Day celebration after all. This year, students will be front and centre during the event in Queen’s Park. Members of the incoming Royal Suite will emcee, introduce speakers, local dignitaries and the dances, or even give a speech themselves, said Janet Grant, associate superintendent for the New Westminster school district. The change comes following the recent departure of three key volunteers who, for many years, were an in-

tegral part of the planning team, Grant said. The news has given the school district a chance to do something different this year, before the May Day task force resumes consultations following the event, she added. “What we really want to do is shine the light on them (the Royal Suite) as leaders and have them run the ceremony in the park,” she said. “We’re very excited about it.” Staff also want to invite performing art students from New Westminster Secondary School to participate in the event.Typically, one of the school’s bands is included in the celebration,

but Grant would like to see dance or choir students be included, too. “The kids love seeing the older kids perform, and many of whom in some cases are older siblings,” she said. The May Pole and folk dances will still proceed as normal. Following the event, the school district’s task force on May Day will survey parents and community groups for their thoughts on the event, and the feedback the task force receives will inform any recommendations it makes to the school board.

Tall trees, especially native conifers are a “real magnet” for certain birds, for example, and leaving shrubs and grasses attracts other species. “For example, if you go into Queen’s Park, you’ve got the big conifers, so you get the ones that live in the canopy, but there’s no understory, so all the ground birds are gone,” Butler says. “By changing that vegetation, you’d have different species.” Water is important too. Dealing with drainage issues in Queensborough, the city could try to create small marshes or ponds instead of building ditches or covering over the water. “It’s just a matter of mindset,” Butler says. The city could even encourage residents to arrange their yards and even their patio hanging baskets to attract birds. If city officials did decide to pursue a bird strategy, New Westminster has one advantage no other city in Canada has, thanks to Butler. From May 1 to Aug. 31 in 2012 and 2013, Butler criss-crossed the city with his bicycle, binoculars and notepad and created a comprehensive New Westminster Breeding Bird Atlas. He used the same protocols and techniques employed to make the B.C. Breeding Bird Atlas, a project he worked on from 2007 to 2014, by Bird Studies Canada, Environment Canada, the B.C. Ministry of Environment, the British Columbia Field Ornithologists, the Federation of B.C. Naturalists, Louisiana-Pacific Canada Ltd. and the Pacific Wildlife Foundation. “I thought, I’ve got a bit of time here,” Butler says. “I live here, so I’ll set this up and do one. I thought, New West is small enough. I can do it all on my bicycle. I ride all over the place anyway. I can combine them.” During the so-called “dawn chorus” in spring and early summer, birds start singing about half an hour before sunrise to mark out their territory, so Butler began his route at about 4:30 a.m. and worked till about 10 a.m.

Using a GPS, he started at Hume Park near his house and stopped every threequarters of a kilometre. At each spot, he stopped for five minutes and recorded every bird he saw or heard in his notebook. “Every bird in the world has that four-letter code,” Butler says.The North American Robin, for example, is AMRO. Butler also recorded telling behaviours, like birds carrying twigs to build nests or carrying food. “That tells me they’re feeding young,” he says. Based on these behaviours, each bird observation was scored as a possible, probable or confirmed breeding species. For statistical purposes, each five-minute recording session represents a sample. The result of all his labour is a bird map that details the distribution of all the species seen or heard during the 2012 and 2013 breeding seasons. It’s part of a growing body of evidence that urban landscapes can harbour “impressive proportions” of a region’s bird life, according to the atlas’s introduction. Butler estimates about half the species in the Greater Vancouver area are represented in New Westminster. “That’s a substantial amount when you consider it’s an urban landscape,” he said. With the Fraser River delta among the most important bird areas in Canada, finding ways to accommodate birds in river cities like New West is vital, according to the local bird expert. Having studied field notes from a local ornithologist who worked in the Royal City in the 1930s and 1940s, Butler says the area has already lost much of its bird life, including species like the Lewis’s Woodpecker, Screech Owl and Ruffed Grouse, but he’s hopeful a bird strategy could stem the losses. “It is kind of troubling that these species are gone because it’s all because of urbanization,” he says, “but I think we can turn the corner a bit on some of this by just doing what I’m saying – planting for them, giving them more space.”

Way Off-BroadwayWednesday series continues Comedy grown from tragedy is in the spotlight in the next Way Off-Broadway Wednesday production at the Heritage Grill. The new, original cabaret theatre series is back at the downtown eatery for the month of February. On Feb. 1, 15 and 22, stand-up comedian Mark Hughes will be in the spotlight with his show Tragedy + Time Served = Comedy. Described as “brutally honest and sometimes shocking,” the show explores the cold, hard and sometimes hilarious truth about Hughes’ past homelessness, heroin use and bank heists. On Feb. 8, Nathan Barrett will be onstage with Matthew Mackenzie’s acclaimed one-man play, The Particulars, billed as “a high-energy and humorous exploration of normalcy, heartbreak … and gardening.”The show tells the story of Gordon, a solitary man whose seemingly healthy, functional lifestyle erodes when an unwanted “pest” begins to torment his home office and his psyche.

original material in a venue with good sound and good food – and, as organizers note, most importantly of all a supportive and attentive audience. Enrico Renz, Lawren Nemeth and Poul Bech cohost the evenings, which happen on the first Tuesday

of the month. Admission is free, and all ages are welcome. For information, see www.rclas.com or call Poul Bech at 604-881-6801. You can also find event information on Facebook – search for Songwriters Open Mic.

“Delving into grief, paranoia and the impinging of the spirit world on a carefully calculated, hyper-normal lifestyle, The Particulars addresses the futility of escaping from an unresolved brokenhearted past,” a press release says.

All shows are at 7:30 p.m., with doors opening at 7 p.m., and there’s a full menu with table service. All ages are welcome.Tables can be reserved at 604-7590819. Admission is by donation.

Arts & Entertainment Royal City’s Fiddler tops at Ovation Awards Julie MacLellan LIVELY CITY

jmaclellan@newwestrecord.ca

Royal City Musical Theatre is tops yet again. The company’s production of Fiddler on the Roof, which ran at the Massey Theatre last spring, emerged triumphant at Sunday night’s Ovation Awards, which recognize the best musical theatre in the region. The production earned Outstanding Community Production (Large Theatre) honours, beating out offerings from Theatre Under the Stars, Exit 22, Align Entertainment and URP Productions. Another local win came from Suzanne Ouellette, who earned Outstanding Choreography honours for her work on Gateway Theatre’s The Music Man. Congratulations to all involved. For a full list of Ovation Award winners, see www.tinyurl.com/Ovation Awards2017. GHOST AT GALBRAITH? Your chance to enjoy a night of Shavian theatre might just also be your chance to have a run-in with the Galbraith House ghost. City Stage New West is currently showing Shaw Shorts! at the historic home, and City Stage’s artistic director wrote to let us know about a possible encounter with the legendary spook who haunts the home. m Bucciarelli, who’s also onstage as one of the actors, tells it like this: It was during a promotional photo shoot for the play that Damon Calderwood, who was taking shots of the three actors, encountered a strange shadow. He took more than 200 photos, and at around his 90th shot, he said, “Wait guys, I’m getting some really weird shadow in these last few pictures.” He checked the lights, but nothing had changed. And yet, in a series of four to five photos, there’s a distinct “shadow” in the upper right corner that can’t be accounted for by anything in the shot. Bucciarelli reports that it went away as mysteriously as it came, without any lighting changes. “We were left concluding that possibly Someone wanted to be in that pic-

Arts & Entertainment Artist winds up Anvil residency The Anvil Centre is opening up opportunities for artists and community members alike with its new artist in residence program. The downtown centre is currently hosting its first ever artist in residence, Sam Davidson. Davidson is the inaugural artist to take part in the selfdirected residency program that gives artists a chance to focus on work in a creative environment, with dedicated studio time. More than 30 artists and art groups from around the Lower Mainland applied for the 2017 program, and the Anvil Centre selected 14 projects to host throughout the year. Davidson will be working on site at the Anvil Centre until Saturday, Feb. 4, and a final performance is open to the public that day. He has a bachelor’s degree in music and is a specialist in the EWI, a breath-

controlled synthesizer that he features in his recordings and performances. He’s a member of the Canadian band Brasstronaut, which has toured Europe and North America extensively, and he also performs as a sideman to Toronto violinist Jaron Freeman-Fox and The Opposite of Everything.

During his residency, Davidson has been working on building new repertoire and developing his compositional techniques, using early music (circa 1620 to 1720) as his source material. He’s been taking baroque melodies and extracting their themes to recycle into his own innovative new works, across various genres and

Q A

What does the Wills, Estates and Succession Act (WESA) of BC change? (Part 3)

In 2014, WESA made the biggest changes to BC estate planning law in about 80 years. In December, January, and STEPHEN GRAF February, I discuss six changes. This column is legal information, not legal advice. To make a will, please contact me. (5) The formalities for signing your will are still strict. However, under WESA, the BC Supreme Court can ﬁx mistakes. (6) Marrying no longer revokes your will. However, separation still deletes your former spouse unless your will says otherwise. Under WESA, two married people stop being spouses if they separate on purpose for at least two years, or if the Family Law Act of BC divides their assets. A common-law relationship ends when the partners choose.

Are Baby Teeth Important?

Yes they are!! Like adult teeth they help with chewing, speech, and the psychological benefits of a worry free smile up to age 12. Baby teeth also hold space, and maintain bone for the adult DR. LOVELY teeth that are growing under the gums. Although these teeth are eventually replaced by permanent teeth they still should be looked after by both the child and their parents. They help us set down a proper maintenance program for the future life of our permanent teeth. To prevent early childhood decay that can be found in very young children (0 – 4 years of age). Keeping your child’s teeth clean is key. Avoid diets high in sugar such as milk, juice, and formula which all contain sugar. Sticky and sugary foods should be minimized. Visit the dentist by age one or within six months of when you see the first tooth. This allows your dentist to monitor and catch problems early and prevent disease. So, in closing, our baby teeth are very important, so do your best to maintain them for a lifetime of happy smiles!!

What is a Partial Denture?

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

What Is the Best Way to Lose Body Fat as I set my New Years Fitness Goals?

There is not one “best way” to lose body fat and unlike what some T.V. infomercials say there is no magic pill or cream one can use or apply to lose it!! Each person responds differently to different training programs and LUKE RAMNATH scenarios and trainers can apply these different principles and techniques when designing their clients’ programs. Exercises that incorporate multiple muscle groups and are weight bearing (functional training) burn more calories per minute and are bar none better suited for fat loss than non-weight-bearing activities such as yoga and walking! In short my top 5 (evidence-based) ways to lose body (belly) fat: 1. Don’t Eat (added) Sugar and Avoid Sugar-Sweetened Beverages! 2. Eating More Protein! 3. Cut (refined) Carbs From Your Diet! 4. Eat Foods High in Fiber! 5. Aerobic (high-mid intensity) Exercises!

Q A

If I file a personal bankruptcy who will know?

Filing personal bankruptcy in Canada is a rather private process. In the majority of bankruptcies only the creditors, the Licensed Insolvency Trustee (who files the bankruptcy) BLAIR MANTIN and Office of the Superintendent of Bankruptcy are aware of the proceedings. Credit bureaus obtain bankruptcy information and keep it on your credit history for 6 years from the date your bankruptcy is complete. It is still possible to apply for and obtain credit during this time – most clients rebuild credit within 2 years of bankruptcy discharge. Credit rebuilding tools are part of the financial counselling services provided by the Licensed Insolvency Trustee in bankruptcy proceedings.

Community New ambassador team hard at work in New West A new crew is hard at work in the Royal City as part of the NewWestminster Youth Ambassador Team. For the past three years, the program has been providing young NewWest men and women aged 16 to 19 with life skills and opportunities.The ambassadors are often spotted around town volunteering at various events, such as the Festival ofVolunteers at Royal City Centre, MLA Judy Darcy and MP Peter Julian’s open

houses and fundraisers for autism, Royal City Musical Theatre, Order of the Eastern Star and other organizations. “What it provides for them is an opportunity that they might not otherwise have or think of, ways to give back to their community and meet a whole lot of different people than they would normally meet,” said program founder Lynn Radbourne. The NewWestminster

youth ambassador team’s “charity of choice” is B.C. and Alberta Guide Dogs, which raises and trains puppies and dogs for people who are visually impaired or autistic children, and provides dogs that aren’t suitable for these roles to soldiers with post-traumatic stress disorder.The team is also sponsoring a puppy, Simba. This year’s ambassador team includes Cole Thiessen, Ben Osborne, Jonah Wright, Meghan Connor,

Giselle (Gigi)Whittaker and Julie Ruggenberg. “After all the volunteering, they get a grant at the end of the year to help them with their post-secondary education,” Radbourne said. “We do fun things too.We take them into the parades, we take them into the Santa Claus Parade, the Hyack Festival parade.” The youths also go on a couple of out-of-town trips, including a visit to the legislature inVictoria.

“It is a very, very busy year for these kids.We wouldn’t have won the awards if it hadn’t been for the teens.We have been so fortunate.These teens are fabulous.” In addition to winning Record Readers’ Choice awards in 2015 and 2016, the NewWestminsterYouth Ambassador Society took home the 2016 Platinum Award for Not for Profit Under $1 million. While the program is

open to teens ages 16 to 19, younger teens are invited to volunteer with the group and see if it’s something they’d like to do in the future. Anyone wishing to support the program is invited to attend a burger and trivia fundraiser on Saturday, Feb. 18 from 6 to 9 p.m. at the Castle Neighbourhood Grill.Tickets are $20 and available at nwyas@shaw.ca or 778-389-1125. – Theresa McManus

Mr. India gets his belt Rish Koya’s dream to win the All StarWrestling Trans Canada Championship comes true Theresa McManus

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

Rish Koya is living out his childhood dream. Mr. India, as Koya is known in the wrestling ring, recently won the All Star Wrestling Trans Canada Championship. “I have had different belts, but this is the big one,” he says of the heavyweight championship. “This is the one everyone wants. It’s the best of the best.” As an infant, Koya moved from Fiji to Edmonton, where his love of wrestling began. He attended his first match before his first birthday. “It was like that fatherson thing - wrestling was something we always did. I have loved it since I was a kid,” says the New West resident. “I would try to get in the ring when the bad guys were beating up the good guys.They would have to

hold me back. I think the first time I actually got in the ring I was two years old at Stampede Wrestling.” Years later, the WWF/ WWE fan started attending Elite Canadian Championship Wrestling shows at the Eagles hall (now the Columbia Theatre).

“I went there and I absolutely fell in love with it,” he says. “The main event was awesome, but the wrestling itself was so-so. But it was the atmosphere.There would be 200 fans in there and they were loving it. They were all yelling and screaming.” In 1996, Koya began training with Gorgeous Mi-

chelle Starr at a backyard wrestling ring in Surrey. “I remember when we started, there were so many guys who came and went, just because the training back then was so difficult,” he says. “It’s not just learning how to wrestle, it’s the physical conditioning, the functional strength.” And what about those longstanding comments about wrestling being fake? “Usually my response to that is, just get in the ring with me for a few minutes and I’ll show you fake,” Koya laughs. While his original character was a bad guy, Mr. India is one of the good guys. “The fans are so behind the character.They are chanting In-di-a, In-di-a, Indi-a.You take a look around and there are maybe three Indo-Canadians in the audience.They aren’t chanting for the country, they are Continued on page 26

Koya: ‘I want to be the main event’ Continued from page 24 chanting for me,” he says. “It feels amazing.” Koya is thrilled to be All Star Wrestling’s heavyweight champion and hopes to use it as a platform to promote his two passions – wrestling and healthy living. A trainer since 1998, Koya has de-

veloped a kettlebell training program now offered at Koyabell Fitness in New West. Koya also teaches a Wrestle Fit program at the Surrey gym where he trains for All Star Wrestling. Like some of the visiting professional wrestlers who’ve dropped by

the gym, Koya aspires to break into the WWE. “If your goal isn’t to be there, then you shouldn’t be wrestling. That’s how I feel,” he says. “You want to be the main event; I want to be the main event every single show. I want to be the champion, I want to be the guy. Give

me the ball, I’ll run with it.” Koya, who is working on a plan to create a wrestling/variety show in New West that showcases local businesses and introduces new folks to wrestling, is enjoying his time as All Star Wrestling’s heavyweight champion.

“Come check out a show. There is local wrestling here and it’s absolutely amazing. It’s a family-friendly show. Just give us a shot,” he suggests. “One show – come check it out.”

It begins with many blankets of different colours and sizes covering the floor.The blankets represent the indigenous groups that lived in North America before European settlers arrived. By the end, only eight, small and isolated folds of fabric remain.

Students examine history Continued from page 27 involved,” Moore said. The blanket exercise is meant to show, on a scale students can understand, the devastation that took place when Europeans arrived in Canada. The ceremony began with the facilitator, in this case 21-year-old Megan Jensen, a member of the Carcross/Tagish First Nation in theYukon and a friend of Moore’s, setting the scene. Jensen asked the students to be quiet, to listen. Not all could; some snickered, others giggled. She had the students stand on the blankets, two to a blanket. Jensen explained how life was for the indigenous people before the settlers arrived.They used treaties to resolve disputes, she said. They were statements of peace. When the Europeans arrived and they needed help, the indigenous people taught them to hunt, to farm the land, to survive the winters.The two groups were trading partners, exchanging goods, she said. While Jensen spoke, Bon-

nie and Moore, acting as the Europeans, wove their way through the blankets, folding some into small squares and taking others away altogether to show the impact of the settlers’ presence. “You went from strong independent nations to poor bands,” Jensen said. By the end, the snickers and giggles were gone, replaced with a solemn quietness. Unfold part of your blankets, Jensen told the remaining students.This is to show the progress and growth

of the new generation, she said. “We just want to see the kids having that kind of ‘aha’ moment,” Moore said. “Learning that it is so important to the healing process to just listen to the stories, even if it makes you uncomfortable. And no one is saying you’re at fault, and nobody is saying you can change or fix anything, but part of the process is having these kinds of moments where people have a look at it,” he said. “It changes you.”

OUR PAST

Life in the United Colony Archie and Dale Miller editorial@newwestrecord.ca

Last week we wrote about the first legislative council for the United Colony of British Columbia, which met here in NewWestminster in January of 1867. The event in 1867 was a major occasion for this city, and the community was very aware of the many members of government, assorted dignitaries and citizens arriving in town to take part in or to witness the historic meeting.There would have been a lot happening, with groups gathering on the street, meeting for dinners or parties, and serious discussions evident at times. When the governor left the Legislative Hall and was honoured by the HMS Malacca, anchored in the Fraser off the meeting site, “having concluded his speech His Excellency bowed to the house and retired from the hall, his exit being the signal for a salute of 18 guns from HMS Malacca,” the town knew that the formal ceremonies were over and the governmental work and deliberations were now to be the order of the day. The residents of the Royal City would have noted that the town was now home to a new “club” related to social governmental activities. “Messrs. Grelley, of the Co-

lonial Hotel, have fitted up very snug apartments for a club, comprising a sitting room and a dining room, with a fire place in each. We understand the honourable members fromVictoria form the nucleus of the club.”The reporting paper also commented that they had not heard what the club might be called. And so the town got back to its everyday life while keeping an eye on those visiting as part of the day-today actions of the legislative council.The newspaper was filled with reports of the decisions and processes that were part of the operation of the United Colony. A short look around town at this time gives us some idea of the regular activities. The local dramatic club was to offer “an entertainment” that would include a drama, Momentous Question, which was to be followed by a theatrical farce, Twenty minutes with a tiger.

It was noted that because their “American friends” were celebrating the birthday of GeorgeWashington, there were no telegraphic communications to report on. In terms of import and export, it was reported that two large sailing ships would be taking lumber to the Sandwich Islands (Hawaii) and “bringing return cargoes of the productions of the Islands.” The annual meeting of the board of management of the Royal Columbian Hospital was held, went well, and its report was to be printed and distributed, and a well-attended ball and dinner was held at Government House. And speaking of Government House, a delegation of First Nations representatives met with the governor “to thank him for refusing to legalize the sale of liquor to the Natives of the Colony.” And life in the city of 1867 went on.

New West girls gear up for playoff run Dan Olson

dolson@newwestrecord.ca

Playoffs – it’s time we’re talking about playoffs. Twisting Jim Mora’s comic rant on its ear, this is the time to talk about playoffs, and the New Westminster Hyacks are just happy it’s arrived. The senior girls basketball team dominated its league brethren to the tune of 7-0, out-pointing them by 266 points in the process.The Hyacks averaged 70 points and limited the competition to 32 per game in the Burnaby-New Westminster league, with the closest margin of victory coming last week when Burnaby Central was the opponent in a 77-54 win. Having peppered his schedule liberally with big-time tournament action, including the vaunted Centennial Top-10 last month, New West head coach Doug Woodward noted moving from league play to playoffs is always a challenge. “It’s a mental challenge, more than anything,”Woodward said of the shift. “We’ll practise hard; that’s all we do... In practice I’ve got 90 minutes and I’ll run them. In a game like (Monday’s season finale) you get maybe 10 minutes (on the floor).” The string of practices this week, on the heels of Monday’s 65-23 win over secondplace Burnaby Mountain that locked up first overall, will be about fine tuning. Point guard Sarah Forgie anticipates the road ahead for a berth to the B.C. tournament as anything but a cakewalk. “I’m really, really hoping to get to provincials – everybody is, obviously. But it’s going to be hard,” the Grade 11 starter said. “It’s going to be hard for us to get in there.We have to work really hard at all the practices, but I think we can do it, though. I think if we can put our best effort out there, we’ll do it.” Forgie has evolved into a leader on the team, not just in her on-court demeanor which runs opposing defences ragged.The slick ballhandler, who made a smooth adjustment to the senior level as a Grade 10 last year after playing a pivotal role in the junior Hyacks’ sixth-place provincial finish in 2015, says being a veteran on a team of best friends is a lot of fun.

“Last year it was just a lot of learning, learning all the plays and stuff like that. It was really fun; my sister (Emma) was on the team too, and I was friends with a lot of them. It was more of a fun year, and I was supporting them. Now I’m with my friends so I think I like this year better.” The main focus from here on is to start the game with intensity. “We know we have to get to the games and start out really quick, and that’s been one of our problems for us, that we start out flat,” she said. “We need to get in there and try and score as quick as possible and push it for the rest of the game.” As talented as she is, Forgie’s best asset may be how she works with her teammates, says Woodward. “She’s very good – (Forgie) can go in or outside. She’s the one who gets it going. She’s the director of the team and we need more like that. I can count on her taking the reins, pushing her teammates,” said Woodward. On a roster of 15, with just three Grade 12s – Keja Davis, Sean He and Jamie Lee – chemistry and patience have been major building blocks as the players get comfortable with the coach’s defensive systems. A lot of players bring leadership, said Forgie. “We have a lot of leaders on this team, so no one really needs to be ‘the’ leader because all of us have a mutual understanding on what’s happening,” she said. Woodward points to his two guards as a source of stability and star power. “(Jamie Lee) and Sarah together are just incredible,” he noted. “(Lee) is the fastest we have. She’s good, and one of the best players we’ve got. Her and Sarah are almost identical; they work well together.” It’s the work that will see how long the season lasts. The Burnaby-New West league playoffs begin Monday, when No. 4 Cariboo Hill plays Moscrop, and Burnaby South takes on No. 3 Burnaby Central. On Tuesday, No. 2 Burnaby Mountain meets the Central-South winner at 5:15 p.m., while New West plays either Moscrop or Cariboo Hill at 6:45 p.m., both at NWSS. The championship final goes Feb. 9 at 5:15 p.m. in New Westminster.

Coming on the heels of a solid 63-47 decision over Burnaby Mountain, the upstart Hyacks hope to spin some of its strong tourney and regular season results into a shot at a Quad-A provincial berth. New West, who put up a respectable 6-2 record to finish third overall, open the second season on Monday against No. 6 Moscrop, whom they defeated 84-51 nearly three weeks ago.The game, which

goes at 6:45 p.m. at NWSS, follows the opening match, where No. 4 Burnaby North takes on Burnaby Mountain at 5:15 p.m. A win on Monday would catapult New West into the semifinal against No. 2 Burnaby South, 5:15 p.m. on Tuesday at Byrne Creek.The league final goes Feb. 9 at 5:15 p.m. at Byrne Creek.

DOUGLAS COLLEGE WOMEN PICK UP TWIN WINS Rachel Beauchamp continues to be a point machine for the Douglas College Royals women’s basketball team. The Surrey native registered 21 points and added nine rebounds

in her team’s 71-53 victory over Langara last week. The New West-based Royals never trailed, leading 37-25 at the half.Tallying 14 points and as many boards was Sarah Jorgenson. The squad followed up that win with a tightly contested 58-48 decision over Quest on Saturday. Simran Bir came off the bench to score a team-high 15 points, while Ellen Fallis netted nine points. Douglas, second overall at 9-3, led convincingly until the fourth quarter when Quest put up 24 points to narrow the gap. The Royals pay a visit to firstplace Capilano on Friday and Columbia Bible College on Saturday.

Royals volley for top spot Douglas College looks to build momentum for playoffs Dan Olson

dolson@newwestrecord.ca

The schedulers of the PacWest women’s volleyball league must have known something when they mapped out the final weeks of the regular season. In what has evolved into a two-tier league on the provincial collegiate circuit, the top three teams are about to gnash spikes for spikes, giving a potential preview of the provincial championships in three weeks time. With two wins separating first from third, the rivalry between the Vancouver Island Mariners, Capilano Blues and Douglas College Royals couldn’t be tighter. All three teams meet over the next few weeks. And while Royals coach Jeff Ross says a league title would be great, a strong finish and some momentum would be the big catch coming out of the regular season. “I think everything is flowing the way I’d like to see, so if we can continue building towards the playoffs we will be where we want to be,” said Ross. The Royals currently hold down second place with a 14-4 record, just one gameback of first-place Vancouver Island, and just a game ahead of Capilano University. Fresh off last week’s solid sweep of College of the Rockies (3-1, 3-0), Douglas continues to stockpile confidence-boosting decisions in the season’s second half.

Not that they were doing too shabbily before the holiday break. But since then, they’ve filibustered their competition to the tune of 16-7, a boost from November’s 13-10 set score. Ross feels the team’s balance and chemistry are the big difference makers. “The girls have come a long way since the first semester,” he said. “It’s more a process of hard work and how they’ve done a great job pushing each other.” When scanning the individual stats, that balance appears to be the cement to their on-court glue. Although no Douglas College player tops any of the five statistical categories, Royals are well represented when it comes to tallies. Third-year veteran Georgia Hurry is second in blocks with an 0.97 per set average, while teammates Autumn Davidson (sixth) and Vania Oliveira (eighth) also crack the top-10. Third overall in digs is second-year Claudia Corneil, with a dig average of 3.39 per set after 18 matches. Captain Juliana Penner, meanwhile, is fifth in kills, putting up 3.08 per set, and first-year Vicki Schley sits ninth overall. Among all offensive stats, Penner sits fifth overall and Oliveira ninth. This week, the Royals visit Victoria’s Camosun Chargers, before returning to wrap it up with matches against VIU (Feb. 10 and 11) and Capilano (Feb. 18).

Lean on me: The New Westminster Royals’ Zack Forai, left, battles a Vancouver Thunderbird opponent for the puck during a peewee C hockey game 10 days ago at Queen’s Park Arena. The T-birds prevailed 3-1, but the Royals avenged that score with a 4-2 win in the opening game of the peewee C playoffs last week. The Royals host Seafair in a playoff contest on Sunday at 10:45 a.m. PHOTO JENNIFER GAUTHIER
