Sapperton event backs a Royal Columbian Hospital worker and her family who want to stay in Canada

For nearly two years, Claudia Zamorano has been quietly working to help keep hospital patients safe in the face of COVID-19 through her work as a housekeeper at Royal Columbian Hospital. Now she faces the prospect of being deported from the country she has called home for more than four years. Zamorano and her family — her mother-in-law Leticia Bazan Porto; her brother-in-law Isaias Liberato Bazan; her husband Andres Liberato Bazan and their nine-year-old daughter Evangeline — are all facing deportation to Mexico while they await a decision on their ongoing application for permanent residence on humanitarian and compassionate grounds. Sanctuary Health, a grassroots community group that advocates for migrant justice, held a press conference at Sapperton Park Wednesday morning to draw attention to the family’s plight. The family fled Mexico in 2017 under threat from organized crime.They’re now living in New Westminster, where Evangeline is set to start Grade 4 in the fall — but they may not be allowed to stay. Since the pandemic began, they haven’t qualified to stay in Canada despite some federal programs designed to regularize the immigration status of Continued on page 3

Work on a supportive housing project planned in downtown NewWest is expected to get underway soon, but it will be a little different from what was originally planned. In December 2021, council approved an official community plan amendment and a rezoning to allow a 52-unit supportive housing project at 60 to 68 Sixth St.The original plan called for a four-storey modular building, but that plan has now changed. “Originally anticipated to be a modular housing development, BC Housing has informed the city that, although the modular construction is technically feasible, they are reverting to a traditional wood-frame construction due to site constraints (site size) and market conditions,” said a recent city staff report. “Managed by a non-profit agency, preference for these units will be given to the locally unsheltered, with city staff and homeless outreach workers contributing to such decisions.” The report said occupancy will take place in 30 to 36 months, if final funding is approved.

New West family pleads to remain in Canada

Continued from page 1 essential workers. Though Zamorano worked in COVID-19 wards that put her at direct risk from the virus, she didn’t qualify for a federal program launched in December 2020 to regularize the status of refugee claimants who worked in health care. The two Bazan brothers, meanwhile, have been working in construction, and their employer, CWL Contracting, is supporting their application for permanent residence.They, too, missed out on a federal program designed to regularize the status of construction workers. Such a policy was introduced in July 2019 for out-of-status construction workers in the Greater Toronto Area, in recognition of the economic contributions of those workers, but there’s nothing similar for B.C. refugee claimants. “We can’t afford as a society to exclude and deport families like these,” said Omar Chu of Sanctuary Health. “We’re standing together because we won’t let the government continually chew up and spit out members of our community by introducing piecemeal programs that exclude far more people than they support.” Porto, meanwhile, has been serving the community through volunteer work at the South Granville Seniors Centre, Carnegie Community Centre, Mission Possible andWatari Counselling and Support Services — where she has been a pillar of

its food security program. “They’re a truly remarkable family that has given so much to the community,” Chu said. “The trauma, the anxiety and the fear that our immigration (system) has created for this family is unacceptable.” ‘I DO IT WITH JOY’ The soft-spoken Zamorano is unassuming about her own contributions. “I like my job; I do it with joy,” she said. “We are short of staff, so if I can help the patient and the nurse, then I will.” She’s even been able to use her language skills to help nurses deal with Spanish-speaking patients. Despite her close contact with the virus throughout the pandemic, she was able to dodge COVID-19 until last week — when, finally, she tested positive after working in a seniors’ ward with a COVID outbreak. “I’ve been doing my work carefully, cleaning up everything,” she said, but added the workload is high for housekeepers. “One person, it’s just not enough.” Zamorano has gone through her own personal struggles over the past few years, including miscarriage she attributes to the stress of the family’s situation. But her concern is focused largely on her daughter — who was forced to attend a family meeting with immigration officials on July 8, where she was told her family would be de-

She cried and asked why we cannot be here if we are not bad people. “CBSA has to change and protect the mental health of every children in the same situation.” HEU BACKS FAMILY The family has earned the support of the Hospital Employees’ Union, which is publicly urging Immigration Minister Sean Fraser to support their permanent residency application. “It is clear that Claudia has an active role in ensuring safe direct patient care, and she never should have been excluded from the special measures that were introduced for refugee claimants working in health care,” said HEU president Barb Nederpel.

City Local ceremony memorializes chief’s execution Theresa McManus

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

About 100 people gathered in New Westminster recently to commemorate the wrongful hanging of Chief ʔAhan from the Chilcotin War of 1864/65. Tŝilhqot’in National Government leaders, members of New West city council and school board, and others gathered at New Westminster Secondary School on Monday, July 18 to commemorate the anniversary of ʔAhan’s hanging in New Westminster. “War Nits’ilʔin ʔAhan was the sixth Nits’ilʔin to be hanged by the colonial government at the time — 157 years wasn’t that long ago. Our collective memory of the Chilcotin War has a very strong place in who we are as a people and our responsibility

to further out rights and title,” Nits’ilʔin (Chief) Joe Alphonse of Tŝilhqot’in National Government said in a news release. “Nits’ilʔin ʔAhan was a hero working to protect his people from the wrongful taking of our lands and the threat of smallpox.We were here today to remember those sacrifices.” According to the City of New Westminster, July 18 marks 157 years to the day since Nits’ilʔin ʔAhan was wrongfully arrested under a flag of truce and hanged in New Westminster. “In 2018, the city identified the need to assist the Tŝilhqot’in Nation in memorializing Chief ʔAhan’s execution,” said the news release. “This annual event has provided an opportunity to recognize the injustice that took place

and pay respect to the deep history of the Tŝilhqot’in Nation.” On Oct. 15, 2020, the

Tŝilhqot’in National Government and the City of New Westminster signed a Sister Community mem-

orandum of agreement, which recognizes and signifies the commitment between both parties to support one another. “As the City of New Westminster continues to come to terms with our history, we are committed to meaningful reconciliation with local First Nations and the urban Indigenous community, as well as with Indigenous peoples affected by our colonial past,” said Mayor Jonathan Cote. “We’re grateful to the Tŝilhqot’in Nation for joining us on our path toward reconciliation.” ʔAhan was one of six Tŝilhqot’in warriors who were executed following the Chilcotin War, between the Tŝilhqot’in people and European settlers, which occurred in the Cariboo-Chilcotin Coast of B.C. Five of the

chiefs were executed in Quesnel in October 1864, while ʔAhan was hanged in New Westminster the following year. Members of the Tŝilhqot’in Nation visit New Westminster each July to commemorate the life of ʔAhan. Past ceremonies have been held near the old New Westminster law court on Carnarvon Street, where ʔAhan was hanged, and at the New Westminster Secondary School site, a possible burial site of ʔAhan. Several chiefs and councillors from the Tŝilhqot’in National Government and local First Nations attended Monday’s ceremony, which featured speeches and drumming. Both the provincial and federal governments have both apologized for the hangings of the six chiefs.

City City council calls for warning labels on booze attributed to the harmful use of alcohol. For people aged 20 to 39 years of age, he said that rises to 13.5 per cent of deaths. Dr. EricYoshida, a professor of medicine at the University of British Columbia, a hepatologist at Vancouver General Hospital and a longtime member of the province’s liver transplant program, supports the city’s motion. He said a 2014 study conducted at the University of Victoria reported that 14,800 Canadians died directly or indirectly from alcohol, whether it was liver disease, traffic accidents, suicides, heart disease or cancer. “We live in a society where you can’t buy toys without seeing a warning that there may be a choking hazard to young

New Westminster city council wants warning labels to be placed on alcohol containers. Council has approved a motion by Coun. Chuck Puchmayr to have the city write to the federal and provincial governments and ask them to introduce policies requiring warning labels on all alcohol containers.The motion, approved at the July 11 city council meeting, would also ask governments to expand educational efforts about the dangers attributed to the harmful use of alcohol. Puchmayr’s motion states that more than three million deaths (5.3 per cent of all deaths) that occur globally each year are

children under the age of three,” he said. “Yet, nothing is done for alcohol. If you were a citizen, you could easily think that alcohol is actually not harmful to your health because the government doesn’t put a label on it.” Puchmayr said many people can drink moderately and not have ill health effects related to alcohol. “A nice glass of wine once in a while, a good local brew – those are those are fine; it’s the harmful use, the excessive use, the real abuse of alcohol is what is at issue here,” he said. “And therefore the resolution is to get governments to become front and centre with that and put those warnings on those products.”

Opinion MY VIEW KEITH BALDREY

Topic: Two teens killed in 10th Avenue crash

The agriculture industry is usually not in the news a lot, but that may be about to change. Food growers and their industrial associations — along with a couple of provincial governments — are up in arms over the federal government’s demand that emissions from fertilizer use must be reduced by 30 per cent by 2030. It is all part of the Trudeau government’s ambitious plan to cut greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by more than 40 per cent within eight years. Since the plan was laid out in detail in March, the oil and gas and transportation sectors have received the most attention. But now the agriculture industry is realizing the potential implications of the climate plan for its sector, and so far, much of the response has been fairly negative. Some farmers say such a reduction can’t be done without a huge decline in the actual use of fertilizer, a development they say will lead to lower production of crops and food, and higher prices for consumers. Huge amounts of fossil fuels are prevalent throughout agriculture — in the ground, in many kinds of machines and equipment, in the transport of food products, in the different agrichemicals that are regularly used etc. — but, for now, fertilizer is getting all the attention. The governments of Saskatchewan and Ontario — two provinces with huge agriculture sectors — have both cried foul and fired off angry communiques at a recent conference of federal and provincial agriculture ministers. The B.C. government’s position on climate change closely mirrors that of the federal Liberal government, so it is more supportive of setting such targets when it comes to reducing emissions. B.C. Agriculture Minis-

The news that two innocent people had been killed in a car crash was bad enough.To hear it was two youngsters makes it even worse. Condolences to their families.

My hope is that these young men didn’t even know what hit them and that they waltzed right into heaven having just played a rousing game of soccer. Here, may the God of all love, strengthen and uphold his parents to endure this unimaginable change in their lives. God bless.

Rebecca Partaik

Emissions targets will hitfarmers

ter Lana Popham recently told me it is worth trying to do things differently and she is confident the federal government will hit the pause button and make adjustments if the industry’s dire predictions start to become reality. She also points to some companies — such as B.C.-based Lucent Biosciences — that have developed alternative fertilizers that have far lower emissions and farming operations that use changing technologies to reduce emissions as examples of doing things differently. In many ways, the looming fight over fertilizer use mirrors tensions we will see start to develop in other industrial sectors, as reduction targets are made and different types of responses and actions begin to take hold. Then again, there is every chance many of these targets wither on the vine over time. Previous GHG targets set by Canada and other countries have fallen woefully short of meeting set timelines.That may well be the situation here. It is also far from certain whether the public’s support for ambitious emission reduction targets will last. Rising inflation and its dramatic impact on the cost of living has undoubtedly overtaken concerns about climate change as a top-of-mind issue for the average voter. The slumping popularity of the Trudeau government may derail the climate plan before it even begins to take hold.The outcome of the next federal election will likely determine whether it remains on the books or not. In the meantime, expect to hear a lot more grumbling from the agriculture sector — and other industrial sectors — as the implications of aggressively fighting climate change become clearer.

Glenbrook Fire Hall opens

New Westminster firefighters moved into their new digs at the Glenbrook Fire Hall. Crews vacated the former No. 1 fire station on Royal Avenue and the No. 3 on Cherry Street and moved into the new $3.5-million fire hall at the corner of McBride Boulevard and Sixth Avenue in late September. In addition to building the new fire hall, the New Westminster Fire Department renamed its fire stations to reflect the neighbourhoods they’re in: Glenbrook (formerly No. 1);West End (formerly No. 2) and Queensborough (formerly No. 4).

INBOX

Times have changed in the ‘Royal City’ Editor: I am writing this letter in support of the dropping of “Royal” in the title of the Royal City. I proudly come from a family of five generations in this city, and I will always consider it home. The Wintemute family, from which I come, were pioneers here. And they were no doubt proud of the Royal City moniker. Well, times have changed. No longer are we under the wing of the monarchy. And we have come a long way to understanding the true heritage of our land. Dropping the “Royal” brings us closer to recognizing our Indigenous brothers and sisters and closer to respecting their territorial rights. New Westminster has a history of being hierarchical. We have come a long way in creating an inclusive and diverse community. That’s what I appreciate about this great city! Keep up the good work. And although Chuck Puchmayr voted against this change, I can assure you he will respect my opinion. He is always willing to

hear the other side. I hope he runs independently in the upcoming elections. We need his leadership and inclusivity! Val MacDonald, New Westminster

Keep climate change in mind when you vote Editor: British Columbians don’t have to look far to see the ways climate change is impacting our health: over 600 of our fellow citizens died in the heat dome, smoke from more severe fire seasons is worsening asthma in children, and floods cut off patients from life-saving treatments like dialysis. Cities have a key role to play in climate action — they can influence about 50 per cent of overall greenhouse gas emissions through decisions on land use, transportation and buildings. This October, as we head to the polls, let’s keep climate change on the ballot and vote for municipal leaders who will take bold action on climate change. Agnes Black, RN, New Westminster

City embraces return of Fridays on Front People have been flocking to Front Street as the downtown street party emerges from the pandemic

Theresa McManus

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

Folks have been flocking to Front Street in droves on Friday nights to enjoy an evening of food, shopping, entertainment and community — and there’s more fun to be had in the coming weeks. The Downtown New West Business Improvement Area is thrilled with the community’s response to the return of Fridays on Front, which features live music, food trucks, vendors, children’s activities and more.The event is fully licensed in partnership with Steel & Oak Brewing Co. and Pacific Breeze Winery. “The crowds have been great,” said Kendra Johnston, executive director of

WHAT’S COMING UP? In August, Fridays on Front organizers will be partnering with Shop First Nations to bring in more Indigenous makers for its artisan market. The Pride-themed edition of Fridays on Front is set for Friday, Aug. 12. “We’ll be decked out for Pride Week,” Johnston said. “We’ll have some LGBTQ+ artists performing.That’s always a fun one.” Johnston said it’s great to see the community events that have been taking place in NewWestminster, including Fridays on Front, going so well. “Obviously, there’s a need for this, and people are craving that connection and being out in the community again,” she said. “So it’s really thrilling to see folks out and about in New West again.”

Arts & Entertainment

TheVagabond Players are getting set to return to the stage for the first time in more than three years. The community theatre company hasn’t

staged a play at the Bernie Legge Theatre since the COVID-19 pandemic hit in March 2020. Now, at last, it’s back — and anyone who wants to join the fun is invited to audition for its 2022/23 season opener.

Mulberry PARC Seniors’ Wellness Expo

The company will be staging Sherlock’sVeiled Secret in October, and auditions are being on Aug. 7 and 8. K.C. Brown’s play is set in 1920 and tells the story ofViolet Sheridan, a sculptress who is asked to meet with the now-retired Sherlock Holmes. Holmes informs her they have a family connection and asks her to join him in solving a troubling blackmail case — but she refuses and decides to solve it for herself. The company is auditioning for all parts, and “credible English accents” will be required. “We welcome everyone to join us, and experience isn’t a prerequisite at all,” said producer Bev Pride. Pride welcomes newcomers to come out to the Vagabond Players and experience the joy of theatre — whether it’s through being onstage or by taking part in another crew or volunteer capacity. “We welcome you and will give you a job, mentor you, praise your efforts

and support you learning more theatre skills,” she said. Most of all, Pride says, it’s time to celebrate being able to stage a live performance again. “There’s nothing like live performances, sharing a story with someone other than our cats,” she said. “Live theatre is truly the best of these shared experiences, because you never know what’s going to happen.” The company prefers that all members of the cast and crew are fully vaccinated. Sherlock’sVeiled Secret will run for 10 shows from Thursday, Oct. 6 to Saturday, Oct. 22. Rehearsals will be held Sundays,Tuesdays and Thursdays from 7 to 10 p.m. starting Aug. 22. Auditions will be held by appointment on Sunday, Aug. 7 and Monday, Aug. 8 between 7 and 10 p.m. at the Bernie Legge Theatre in Queen’s Park. Email bep850@gmail.com or text 604-240-5915.

FRIDAY, AUG. 5 AND SATURDAY, AUG. 6 LOUIS C.K. AT MASSEY THEATRE If you are a fan of Louis CK, you’d know that ‘Sincerely’, ‘Sorry’ and ‘Hilarious’ are not just words. They are the six-time Emmy Award-winning stand-up comedian’s popular shows. Some are available on his website, some on Netflix — but here’s a rare chance to watch the talented comedian perform live right here at Massey Theatre (735 Eighth Ave.) Wondering how it would be? Previously, he has had his shows sell out at huge performing arenas (with a 20,800-odd capacity) like New York’s Madison Square Garden — and that’s enough said. The show is appropriate for those 18 years and older. He’s onstage twice: Friday, Aug. 5 and Saturday, Aug. 6 at 8 p.m. Tickets $30 to $75. MORE: masseytheatre.com or ticketsnw.ca

PHOTO CREDIT: SNL screenshot Comedian Louis C.K., seen here during a Saturday Night Live appearance, is coming to the stage at Massey Theatre for two shows this weekend.

FRIDAY, AUG. 5 MUSIC AT THE PIER A stroll along the pier is calming enough, but add to that a selection of live music in the background — and it’s the perfect recipe to end an exhausting week. Youth Services, Royal City Sound and select DJs will be playing live music at Westminster Pier Park to help you kick off your weekend the right way. Besides live music, there will be games and

prizes to be won. Yep, all in the same evening. And did we mention it’s all free? Stop by between 5 and 7 p.m. Friday evening to join in the fun. MORE: www.newwestcity.ca

TransLink wants you to give it a real good thought — which is why it’s presenting a free festival that turns a chunk of Columbia Street (between Fourth and Eighth streets) car free for a major portion of this Saturday. Besides the thrill of walking on the middle of the road, enjoying beer gardens, food trucks, live music, dance and just being amidst people, you can also engage in conversations that ponder the question: what can we as individuals do to reduce traffic congestion and improve air quality? Check it all out between noon and 8 p.m. MORE: carfree.ca/car-free-day-newwest/

PICKLEBALL TOURNEY Get your paddles out and play a round of pickleball at a tournament at Queensborough Community Centre (920 Ewen Ave.) this Saturday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Besides the rush of endorphins, the game will also give you the satisfaction of helping a cause. All the funds raised at the tournament will go towards Refood, a food rescue charity that’s working towards tackling the issues of food insecurity and wastage. To register for the tournament, send an email to nwpb_re-

food@yahoo.com. Registration fee is $30 (lunch is included). MORE: Search out the Pickleball New Westminster group on Facebook

ONGOING JEONGMIN AHN: TRASH Pieces of trash get their own portraits in Korean hyperrealist painter Jeong Min Ahn’s paintings. By painting used and disposed-of objects, the artist wants to urge viewers to pay more attention to every single object they consume and think before they toss it out. The artist’s collection of works is a commentary on consumerism and its relationship to the ecosystem. Ahn’s show, which is on till Aug. 28, is free for all. Check it out at the Gallery at Queen’s Park in Centennial Lodge (near the bandshell). It’s open Wednesdays through Sundays, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. MORE: acnw.ca/galleryexhibit – compiled by Naveena Vijayan

Garden Gals turn garbage into art Naveena Vijayan

nvijayan@newwestrecord.ca

Merril Hall is used to painting with acrylics. But for one of her recent works, she decided to rummage through her trash can for art materials. A pair of her old running shoes, old earrings, empty face cream jars, a frying pan from a garbage can outside her house, and an abandoned bucket from her friend’s garage have all made it into her artwork — a three-dimensional owl. “I found an old hinge on the ground as I was walking by my car. And I thought, gosh, this looks like a beak,” said Hall. She used the hinge, and attached the tag that her old family dog used to wear. “It just builds and builds. And in the end, you have this fun, fantastic looking creation.”

Hall’s owl will be among other such “funky” birds at the upcoming Earth2ART exhibition at Queen’s Park. Creating a whole art show with repurposed materials is a new challenge for Hall and her friends at Garden Gals. The all-women group, a subgroup of the New Westminster Horticultural Society, includes professional and hobby artists who gather every month at the lower gallery of Centennial Lodge in Queen’s Park to paint flowers, trees, and more. They have done several public art installations in the city, including one that was displayed at Anvil Centre at the peak of COVID. But scavenging for materials to create art? That’s new for the group. It all started earlier this year, when they were se-

this year, the paintings that I’ve had on display have been done with natural ink.” Hall and two other artists from Garden Gals have been, in fact, making the ink themselves with seed heads and barks gathered from a friend’s garden. “It’s been really fun to experiment and try new challenges, but I am not going to throw my acrylics away, by the way,” she said with a laugh. Their upcoming show is the group’s effort to be more earth-friendly. Their artworks celebrate nature, said Hall. And by sharing it with the public, they get to share that celebration. “I have always felt it [the public shows] to be like gardening in my front garden, rather than just gardening in the back. It’s a gift to the community.”
