City ENVIRONMENT

City considers urban farming initiatives

Theresa McManus tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

New Westminster is digging into the idea of growing food – and community connections – through urban gardening initiatives like boulevard gardens.

At its Aug. 30 meeting, council unanimously supported an urban farming motion put forward by Coun. Nadine Nakagawa to have the city create and implement policy to support and encourage the climate crisis equivalent of victory gardens, with these gardens to include forest gardens and orchards, pollinator pastures/bee hotels, compost systems, foraging opportunities and rainwater harvesting.The city will consider underutilized spaces such as boulevards, industrial rooftops, multifamily common areas and conversion of street space.

Nakagawa said the parks and recreation department is already working on initiatives as part of the city’s food security plan, but she believes that needs to be bumped up in priority.

“With the impending climate impacts, we are going to have a lot more food-insecure people,” she said. “Beyond all that, the

bigger opportunity here is actually community-building spaces and lots of different spaces.”

Nakagawa said her Brow of the Hill apartment building is an example of a place where a boulevard could provide space for gardening and opportunities for residents to meet their neighbours.

“That’s my larger goal of all of this – to try and actually bring people together, particularly in the high-density neighbourhoods,” she said. “We know that, particularly in the Brow of the Hill, there’s a lot of these very large front lawns in front of apartment buildings that are not used. I never see anyone sitting on them, I never see anyone using them, and they’d be a perfect place to grow things, to grow plants and food and bushes and all sorts of stuff like that.”

The motion stated the climate crisis will continue to impact food security in the community. It also noted that not all community members have access to space to grow their own foods. Other components of the motion include: Ð creating policy on and exploring ways to incen-

tivize front-yard and boulevard gardens, with special consideration for condo and apartment buildings in high-density neighbourhoods.This would consider where they would be appropriate and take into account other needs, such as accessibility and tree planting; Ð exploring ways to support and incentivize container gardening in areas

where it isn’t possible to garden at street level, such as offering a starter plant sale for multi-family housing that’s similar to the city’s annual tree sale; Ð engaging the community and providing learning opportunities through new and existing programs, such as the hanging basket classes and the Queen’s Park petting farm transition; and

Ð incorporating Indigenous plant knowledge and principles of Indigenous land stewardship.

“This provides an opportunity for the city to come together to grow food, to share food and to learn more about our natural environment together as we head into the climate crisis,” Nakagawa said.

Coun. Patrick Johnstone noted that every time a

new community garden is built in the city, it’s heavily used by the community. He thinks it would be beneficial to have some policy around the issue of urban gardening.

“It’s not just about the food source, it’s not just about creating a garden space, it’s not just about better use of green space – it’s about bringing people in the community together and bringing access to people who maybe don’t have a back yard or a front yard where they can do that kind of thing,” he said.

Mayor Jonathan Cote said he’s looking forward to seeing what staff bring forward for council’s consideration.

He said the proposal is consistent with a lot of the city’s goals, particularly those related to climate work.

Cote said it’s been inspiring to see the participation in community gardens, as well as some of the ways residents are using their yards.

“I think is going to be more important as we address these much bigger global issues,” he said.

Opinion MY VIEW KEITH BALDREY

Too many seniors are unvaccinated

I came across a perplexing and concerning statistic that speaks volumes about the difficulty in stopping COVID-19.

More than 147,000 people in B.C. over the age of 60 have yet to receive a single dose of the vaccine.

This age group makes up 27% of the general population, yet it is also the age group that experiences the worst outcomes from getting COVID-19.

More than 4,700 people over the age of 60 (most between 60 and 79) have required hospitalization after contracting the virus (57% of all hospitalizations). Nearly 1,500 of those have needed critical care in an ICU (58% of all ICU cases) and more than 1,680 (93% of all deaths) have died.

Less than 15% involved fully vaccinated people.

Rather, the virus is hitting the unvaccinated hard and older people hardest of all.

Why, then, have so many of the most vulnerable chosen not to be vaccinated?

No doubt, some simply cannot be bothered with getting the shot because they are too busy or it is too inconvenient for them.

A small number may have a medical condition that prevents vaccination and others may have other reasons, none of them particularly valid.

Still, a good chunk of responsibility likely lies with the strident, aggressive and anti-science, anti-vaccination movement.

We saw this group’s ugliness on display during their protest rallies at various locations (notably outside some hospitals) around the province last week.

These are not vaccine “hesitancy” people.These are conspiracy theorists who feed on distributing misinformation, usually via social media, to those whose ignorance of science is easily preyed upon.

There is also an air of violence and intolerance within this community.

At the rallies last week, a nurse was assaulted outside a Nanaimo hospital and frontline health-care workers were threatened outside hospitals.

In Kelowna, a woman was forced to carry her nine-year-old child on her back to gain access to a pediatric appointment as a crowd tried to block entry and demand she remove her mask.

At some rallies, an odious Trump-like chant of “lock her up” was aimed at Dr. Bonnie Henry, who has required a personal police security detail. Members of the media were also physically threatened (a protester at an anti-vax rally on the legislature front lawn also tried to spit on me).

There is little doubt the anti-vaccination movement, which has recently grown in strength in the U.S. sees this pandemic as a great opportunity to expand its menacing reach even further.

Even though anti-vaxxers are a tiny minority in this country - we will likely achieve a 90% vaccination rate later this fall - their influence on some people will undoubtedly lead to some deeply unfortunate and tragic outcomes: more hospitalizations and deaths resulting from COVID-19.

These tragedies will not be confined to those over the age of 60 who stubbornly refuse to be vaccinated, even though they will pay a disproportionately high price for getting the virus.

However, those 147,000 folks over 60 years who have yet to get their first dose are playing with a bigger fire than younger folks.

Stop listening to the anti-science crowd, folks.

Keith Baldrey is chief political reporter for Global BC.

Topic: Is it too hard to find EV charging stations?

“I find that what can be tricky is arriving to the charge station only to find the cords for the unit chopped off by copper thieves.”

“I charge at home mostly — only look for charging when travelling out of the Lower Mainland.”

‘Ugly’ houses still selling well

A Vancouver developer shot back at Queen’s Park and West End residents who told city council the “ugly,” narrow houses he was shoehorning onto double lots were ruining the character of their neighbourhoods. “Few people would buy a really ugly house, so why are they selling so well?” developer Kark Erdmann asked council.When asked whether he’d meet with residents to hear their concerns he said, “There’s never been a law you have to meet with residents; you just have to meet the building code.”

Missing the Signs?

Keep overpass closed

Editor: It was with disbelief that I saw billboards indicating that the McInnes overpass will be reopened to traffic on Sept 10.

Not only am I questioning this decision in the midst of the fourth wave, I am also sad about the ongoing prioritization of cars over other means of transportation.

If we want to commit to sustainability, we should start reallocating road space away from cars and towards pedestrians and bikes.

Widening space for pedestrians also improves access for our community members who use wheelchairs and for parents pushing strollers. Keeping the McInnes overpass one way would be a small. but important step towards improving access for all.

Lastly, the closure has reduced traffic and calmed Quayside Drive over the last yearand-a- half. Previously, drivers would speed through our community to beat traffic on Columbia. It would be sad to see the return of speeding.

We are in a climate emergency and in a pandemic; returning to status quo is not an option, and I expect bold decision by our leaders.

Reopening roads that were closed to prioritize pedestrians is not a helpful decision.

Hearing Loss doesn’t need to strain your relationship.

We need big changes

Editor: What if Canada Post was part of the post-COVID recovery? On Jan. 18, Canada Post Corporation (CPC) announced that 2020 was a record year for parcel delivery.

With this kind of growth, a corporation like Canada Post must roll up its sleeves and review its values, its commitment and the service portfolio it offers to the population, including businesses.

To achieve this, the Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW) has launched a bold campaign called “delivering community power.”

CUPW proposes to accelerate the electrification of Canada Post’s vehicle fleet. CPC operates more than 20,000 vehicles, generating 65 kilotons of CO2 every year. The acquisition of electric vehicles would benefit the environment, stimulate the automotive sector and create decent jobs.

Now, imagine if Canada Post installed charging stations at its facilities and made them available to all, creating the largest network of charging stations in Canada.

My 56,000 brothers and sister from CUPW will not accept that Canada Post is sitting idly, refusing to change its old values and habits.

other candidates trailing much farther behind.

NDP LEADS BURGER POLL The NDP is tops in the (b)un-official burger poll at Burger Heaven by a hefty margin, while the Conservative and Green Burger burgers are duking it out for second place.

After one week on the menu at the local eatery, the Singh (NDP) burger is tops at 30%.Trailing behind are the O’Toole (Conservative) Burger at 19% and the Paul (Green) Burger at 18%.

Further behind are the Trudeau (Liberal) Burger at 12%, the Bernier (PPC) Burger at 10% and the Blanchet (Bloc) Burger at 1%.Voters who are yet undecided or support other parties account for 10% of votes so far.

New West man arrested by gang enforcement team Theresa McManus

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

A New West man is among three suspects who were arrested by Surrey RCMP’s gang enforcement team last month.

Surrey RCMP reports that its gang enforcement team arrested three men and seized a loaded firearm with help from by-

standers. Police say one of men who was arrested is a New West man in his early 20s.

According to police, the Surrey RCMP Gang Enforcement Team (SGET) attempted to conduct a traffic stop in the 16800-block of 60th Avenue on Saturday, Aug. 21, after observing the driver of an SUV violating the

B.C. Motor Vehicle Act. “The SUV failed to stop, and fled from police at high rate of speed.

Additional SGET officers converged on the area, as the driver and two passengers abandoned the SUV in traffic and began to run away,” said a Surrey RCMP press release.

“As officers left their own vehicles and pursued the

men on foot, they were assisted by bystanders who provided crucial information on suspects’ direction of travel.”

Surrey RCMP state that all three suspects were arrested, and further investigation led to seizure of a loaded handgun.

According to Surrey RCMP, all three of the men have ties to gang ac-

tivity in the Lower Mainland.

“Members of our community have made it clear that gang activity is not welcome in Surrey,” Surrey RCMP spokesperson Const. Sarbjit K. Sangha said in a news release. “We are grateful for the assistance of the bystanders who witnessed this incident.Working together,

we can send a strong message that our city is not a safe haven for criminal activity.”

The investigation is ongoing. Surrey RCMP has submitted a report to B.C. Prosecution Service, but charges had not yet been laid as of the Record’s deadline.

City Vaccination clinics offered at college, university campuses Theresa McManus

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

As post-secondary institutions prepare for a re-

turn to in-person learning, Fraser Health is setting up COVID-19 vaccination clinics at campuses across the region.

Fraser Health is holding on-campus clinics to give students and staff the opportunity to get fully vaccinated and protect them-

selves, their classmates and their loved ones from COVID-19. Douglas College hosted clinics at its New Westminster campus

on Aug. 31 and Sept. 7 and at its Coquitlam campus on Sept. 1 and 8.

Yorkville University’s campus on Sixth Street in New Westminster is also holding vaccination clinics on Sept. 23 and 24 and Oct. 25.

“We know the safety of our campuses increases when people are vaccinated,” Anne Kang, minister of advanced education and skills training, said in a press release.

“These on-campus clinics make it easy and convenient to get the vaccine – make the choice to protect your community and play an active role in ensuring a safe return to school this fall.”

Students and staff can receive their first or second dose of the COVID-19 vaccine at the clinics. Friends, family and members of the public who are 12 and older are also welcome to attend these clinics, including those who don’t have personal health numbers and/ or people who are not residents of B.C. To be eligible for a second dose walk-in vaccine, you need to have received an invitation to book your second dose from the province or be at least 28 days since your first dose.

People are asked to bring their COVID-19 immunization record card if they have it.

A full list of Fraser Health’s clinic dates, times and locations can be found at fraserhealth. ca/vax.

Meanwhile, the president of the New Westminster Teachers’ Union is awaiting news about vaccination clinics in middle and high schools.

“The minister mentioned that they are going to be working to have clinics in the schools, but there was very little detail,” NWTU president SarahWethered told the Record. “It would be really nice to have those details about when the vaccination clinics in schools will start and how they will get kids vaccinated.”

Wethered said Grade 9 vaccination clinics occurred annually during her 20 years of working at New Westminster Secondary School. She said inschool clinics would make it easy for students aged 12 and up to get their COVID-19 vaccinations.

“They are very efficient. Schools are set up for that,” she said. “I hope that that is done quickly at the middle schools, our alternate programs and NWSS, that they can

I hope that that is done quickly at the middle schools, our alternate programs and NWSS

come in one day and do all of the kids who want to be vaccinated.”

When school resumes at B.C.’s colleges and universities in September, a mask mandate will be in place for students, faculty and staff.

“In response to rising COVID-19 cases and as students return to in-person learning on campus, I am issuing a new mandatory mask order for all indoor public areas on campus,” provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry said in a press release.

“It’s vitally important for post-secondary students that we resume in-person learning to support young people’s well-being, and with these added measures and increasing vaccination rates, we are confident we can do so.”

The mask order will apply in all indoor public areas on campus including lobbies, hallways, stairwells, elevators, classrooms and labs.

Community Nature art installation comes to Hume Park Theresa McManus

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

Some mystical creatures are adding a touch of whimsy to Hume Park.

Artist Nickie Lewis recently completed a threepiece nature art installation, Hopeful Hybrids, which features three mystical creatures that are hidden within the trails of lower Hume Park. Lewis specializes in creations that focus on nature and sustainability and have a whimsical and friendly theme.

“I am calling them the Hopeful Hybrids because they are all hybrid creatures,” Lewis said. “The idea is that it sort of symbolizes the fact that we were all these people before the pandemic and we became these people during the pandemic, and now we have to figure out how to make those two work together.That’s the idea behind it.”

Hopeful Hybrids are made out of organic materials found within the surrounding ecosystem of

Hume Park. Each sculpture took about two weeks to make.

“They are all fairly large,” Lewis said. “They are all made with cedar sticks that were found in the park itself.That was part of the agreement with the city that they had to be made with materials that were found onsite. I made them with cedar sticks and jute twine. I gathered all the materials and then I built them there.”

Hopeful Hybrids includes:Willa theWishing Walabeast, Alvis the Advising Axolin and Gerald the Gifting Griffin.

Last year, Lewis created a series of stick sculptures in Robert Burnaby Park, which drew many visitors to the park.The Hume Park sculptures are similar to those Lewis created in Burnaby, but the ones in NewWest have interactive elements.

“Before I started making art with sticks, my passion was to make art that was interactive.This is kind of a combination of the two things,” said the

by Burnaby artist Nickie Lewis.

Burnaby resident. “For instance, the first one,Willa, she is aWishingWalabest.

You can take little pebbles and make wishes into her little pouch that she has.”

It’s envisioned that over time the works will slowly be reclaimed by the forested floor of Hume Park.

The sculptures in Robert Burnaby Park caught the attention of a Sapperton resident, who contacted Lewis about doing some sculptures for homes on Fader Street.

“They wanted to do something for the frontline workers,” she said. “They thought it would be cool to create a little art walk for when they are taking their breaks, because they notice a lot of doctors and nurses tend to walk through their neighbourhood.”

Folks are also invited to stroll over to Fader Street to discover more than a dozen smaller, whimsical creations.

Sloane Elphinstone, the city’s coordinator of park services, said the city reached out to Lewis to see if she’d be interested in doing something in the trails of Hume Park that was similar to the installations she had created in Robert Burnaby Park.

“As the most naturalized yet often underused area in the east end, we wanted to draw attention to the charming bluffs in this park,” she explained.

Elphinstone said the in-

The nature walk in Hume Park is part of The Rest of NewWest initiative that took place throughout the summer.

“The Rest of NewWest is an initiative to meet the goals of offering no cost, accessible, timeless opportunities that encourage residents to explore NewWestminster parks in new and creative ways.

There were a number of successes over the summer including a biodiversity themed rock installation

Lewis is now working with small businesses in Sapperton on developing a “sculpture hunt” to help

draw customers to the area to support businesses that have been struggling because of the pandemic.

“They will have little small ones that will hang near their signage.The idea is that people will go looking for them and post them on social media and give a callout to the business,” she said. “Then, once you have found all of them, you will be put into a draw and the winner will receive a free sculpture and possibly other prizes.”

People Lacrosse player heads south on U.S. scholarship Theresa McManus

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

Lacrosse is taking 17-year-old New West resident Lauren Black to places from Oshawa, Ontario to Denver, Colorado.

The 17-year-old longtime New Westminster Salmonbellie was one of only three B.C. women invited to try out for Canada’s senior women’s lacrosse team in Ontario.

The 40 women who tried out at the Aug. 13 to 15 camp are hoping to represent Team Canada at the 2022 Women’s Field Lacrosse World Championships taking place in Maryland in June 2022.

On Aug. 30, the 2021 graduate of New Westminster Secondary School departed for Denver, where she received a scholarship for the Division 1 nationally ranked team at the University of Denver.

The granddaughter of B.C. Sports Hall of Fame and Canadian Lacrosse Hall of Fame lacrosse player Peter Black (and former MP and MLA Dawn Black), Lauren has racked up a number of accomplishments since she started playing lacrosse at the age of four.

A few of these accomplishments include being the captain of the 2019 Team B.C. box lacrosse team that won a gold medal at the national champions.That year, she was also a member of the Team B.C. U-19 field lacrosse team that won a silver medal, and she was named MVP in the goldmedal game.

In 2019, she was also

captain of the New West midget girls’ lacrosse team, which was the provincial gold-medal champion.

In 2018, she was the captain of the Team B.C. box lacrosse team in the national championships.The team was a silver medalist, and Lauren made the national all-star team and was the leading goal scorer in her division.

Lauren was also the captain of the Team B.C. field lacrosse team, which was a silver medalist in Field Lacrosse Nationals, and she earned a game MVP. And that’s just a few of her lacrosse accomplishments.The Record had a chance to connect with Lauren before she headed to Denver.

Q:What do you like about lacrosse?

A: Everything.The speed, skill and physicality of it but also all the friendships and people you meet along the way.The lacrosse community is like no other, and it makes playing that much more fun because it’s always with people who you genuinely love being around.

Q: Box or field – what do you prefer?

A: If it came down to it, field. Box will forever hold a special place in my heart, but there’s no limit with the field game.

Q:You have a long list of lacrosse accomplishments, is there anything you’re particularly proud of?

A:There are a few accomplishments I’d say I’m quite proud of – signing to my dream school of the University of Denver to play lacrosse at, as

well as being selected to try out for Team Canada are probably the top two.

Representing B.C. and New Westminster, while winning a gold medal at nationals with my best friends and teammates, was also amazing.

Q:You were one of only three BC women invited to try out for the Team Canada’s senior women’s lacrosse team in Ontario – and you’re only 17. What was that experience like? When will you know if you are on the team?

A:The camp experience was incredible; I have never seen, let alone played at, such a high level of lacrosse before, so getting that opportunity was so surreal. I learned so much in those three days simply just by watching and being able to play alongside such talented women; it was a real honour. (I don’t know when we’ll hear about the selected team.)

Q:Tell us about your future lacrosse/educational endeavours in Denver, Colorado.

A: I will be majoring in biology with a minor in chemistry this upcoming fall. As for the lacrosse side of things, we’ll be playing at the highest level. Denver is a great team with great people and amazing coaching staff, and I’m beyond excited to get this opportunity to play at the highest level of collegiate lacrosse.

Q: Do you have any goals/aspirations related to your lacrosse career?

A:Team Canada will always be a goal of mine; whether it be in the next

A: One thing I think the community should know is that sports can take you so much farther than you

think! So stick with it if you love it. Sign up for lacrosse too, it’s super fun and there are so many people who work so hard to help give us those opportunities.
