NWPD unveils new ‘unbiased policing’ policy

The NewWestminster Police Department is working on ways to provide culturally safe, equitable policing that upholds human rights.

The department has adopted a new policy on unbiased policing to help ensure it meets new provincial standards for equitable policing.

Deputy Chief Const Paul Hyland, speaking at a July 25 police board meeting, noted the policy falls in line with multiple initiatives taking place at the provincial level to modernize policing in B.C. including changes in answer to reports from the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, the National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls and the

Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.

The department’s senior staff have been reviewing existing policies to make sure they’re compatible with the move towards more equitable policing, he noted, and the new unbiased policing policy provides an overarching framework for those efforts

“In order to kind of distill what it is we’re doing, we wanted to have an omnibus policy that would spell out what it is that we’re doing, including some policy statements about providing culturally safe response in a traumainformed manner,” Hyland said “That’s woven throughout all the policies that we’ve reviewed.”

The unbiased policing policy notes that NWPD employees “have a duty to

deliver services impartially and equitably, in a manner that upholds human rights, and without discrimination based on race, national or ethnic origin, colour, religion, age, sex, sexual orientation, marital status, family status, disability, gender identity and expression, political beliefs, types of employment, or economic or social standing ”

WHAT IT MEANS

The new policy outlines how that philosophy will be applied, in practical terms, to the department’s existing policies and procedures

Policies in areas such as arrest and release, search, seizure of property and evidence and street checks will be reviewed every year to ensure they’re consistent with legislative amendments and case law related

to equal treatment under the law

Procedures governing personal searches must also be in line with unbiased policing standards – including direction on handling items of “cultural or religious significance in a culturally sensitive way” and on offering accommodations “in a manner that is responsive to the gender identity or expression of the person being searched ”

It also calls for the department to monitor its own work for potential “systemic inequities ”

Under the new policy, the NWPD is charged with analyzing its own records every year, based on disaggregated data on ethnicity and gender.

on community engagement, which says the department will maintain a community relations component “to liaise, build relationships and ensure communication with community representatives, service providers or advocates reflective of the demographic makeup of the community.”

The new policy also notes areas of special sensitivity, such as sexual offence investigations, domestic violence investigations, sex work enforcement and mental health intervention.

The policy calls for an annual review of at least one type of record subject behaviour/ officer response reports; prisoner booking records; or other records as identified by the police board to keep an eye out for possible inequities

PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT

The unbiased policing policy includes a section

It outlines that the NWPD will provide information to its employees about the demographic makeup of NewWestminster; local First Nations, including their leadership, history, traditions and laws; and key services and resources available through other public and social service agencies.

It also calls for the department to conduct a survey of citizen satisfaction at a minimum of every three years.

Have you been the victim of crime in New Westminster?

MY VIEW KEITH BALDREY

B.C. needs more long-term care facilities — and fast

They don’t get the kind of media attention that new hospital openings or expansions receive, but the fact is that new long-term care facilities are becoming the dominant kind of building project in the health-care system

In the past four months alone, six new LTC facilities that will add almost 1,300 additional beds were announced for construction.They are to be inVancouver, Delta, Richmond, Abbotsford, Colwood and Campbell River

These new facilities cannot be built fast enough, for two reasons

For one thing, B.C. has a lot of aging LTC facilities that fall woefully short of providing acceptable levels of care In fact, of the existing 127 LTC and assisted living facilities operated by the health authorities, 45 were built before 1980 and

17 were built before 1970, or more than 50 years ago.

Secondly, our senior population is growing quickly and is projected to rise even faster over the next 20 years. An additional 55,000 people over the age of 75 are projected to be added to the population over that time period.

In Surrey alone, the number of people over the age of 80 is projected to increase by 240 per cent in that time By 2040, the 75-and-over population is expected to represent 14 per cent of all British Columbians, almost double the current percentage of 8.5 per cent.

The average age of our current facilities is 37 years As someone who toured several facilities prior to placing a family member in LTC, I can attest to the uneven levels of care that exist in the system (luckily,

we were able to place our family member in a modern facility, which is tremendously better than some of the older ones I toured)

For decades, we lacked urgency when it came to building new facilities Our senior population was not growing at a rapid rate, although many studies showed we were on a path to bring us to where we are now.

Despite the recent spate of new LTC projects being announced, more must be done.

B C seniors’ advocate Isobel Mackenzie recently released a report urging the government to quickly build more assisted living facilities to accommodate the increased demand.

Very few new units were added during the last five years despite the steady rise in

the number of people who need them, her report found

Building more LTC and assisted living facilities would have a positive impact on our health-care system. Most obviously, more facilities mean fewer frail seniors will occupy hospital beds and will receive better care in a non-hospital facility. Our population is greying, and it is greying quickly.

Big-ticket health projects like the new St Paul’s Hospital and a new Burnaby Hospital may generate the headlines, but the fact is that a growing number of communities likely will put the construction of new LTC facilities higher on their priority list than new hospitals in the coming years.

NWPD soccer school returns for a week of fun

A little bit of soccer, a bit of learning and a whole lotta fun that’s what more than 300 kids experienced at the NewWestminster Police Department’s 2023 soccer school

After a three-year hiatus due to COVID-19, about 330 kids attended the July 17 to 21 camp at Queen’s Park Stadium

“It’s going great,” said NWPD Sgt Andrew Leaver when the Record paid a visit “There’s a lot of energy from the kids. It looks like everyone’s having fun, and at the end of the day, that’s the most important thing.”

Amneet Sangha, a Queensborough resident, has been volunteering at the soccer school since 2013 Sangha said the kids love the week-long camp

“They go home, and that’s all they talk about There’s kids here that want the camp to be two months. I don’t know if we’re ready for that,” she said with a laugh “But they want it to be two months, for the whole summer It’s good to hear that ”

At the start of the week, the kids were divided into 26 teams, each having the name of a country that had participated in the lastWorld Cup. As teams, they worked to decorate their country’s sign and to develop a cheer with teams receiving prizes for winning signs and cheers

According to Leaver, about 40 NewWestminster police officers participate in the event throughout the week, including many who volunteer on their days off. About 10 NWPD civilian staff also support the program in coaching and administrative roles, and about 60 community volunteers many of whom at-

tended the program in the past help out as coaches

“It’s a great way to connect with the community,” Leaver said “It’s a great way to get kids from all walks of life together to meet and to interact with police officers in a completely positive, neutral and fun setting.”

In addition to learning some

soccer skills, kids enjoy a variety of other activities during the week. Some of this year’s offerings included a display of emergency vehicles, a petting farm featuring rabbits and silkie chickens, visits and drills with former BCWhitecaps player David Ousted, and visits and displays from the Combined Forces Spe-

cial Enforcement Unit of BC, Lower Mainland Police Dog Services, the RoyalWestminster Regiment and Honour House. ICBC provided a road-safety station that kids could go through

“We’re hoping that this is a week of learning, not just a week of fun and soccer,” Leaver said, “which is why we also bring these things in.”

Air 1, the RCMP helicopter, landed on the field much to the delight of some of the kids.

“I’m sure it was the highlight of the week for some kids. Because once it landed, we all had the opportunity to come take pictures with it, have a look inside, talk with the flight crew, ask some questions,” Leaver said “So it’s been amazing.”

While there were a couple of misting stations going throughout each day of the camp, the kids really soaked up a visit from NewWest firefighters onThursday. A hose, perched on the top of a NewWestminster Fire and Rescue Services’ aerial ladder truck, sprayed water on the kids on a hot summer day.

“We’re thankful to the community, the business community for supporting us, and the families that have paid for their kids to come and just supported us by bringing their kids,” Leaver said “We couldn’t do this without the volunteers that have committed five days to be here.”

The Discovery Centre is continuing its Summer Discovery Days series

“Long weekends in the summer months are extra special and we wanted to help people celebrate them,” said Stephen Bruyneel, the centre’s di-

rector of external relations and development, in a press release.

The August long weekend will feature an engineering lab that will let visitors get their hands on family-friendly activities

tied to the Fraser River’s role in a busy transportation corridor, including:

w building paper planes and testing how the designs fare in the flight testing area;

w showing off boat- and

bridge-building creativity with KEVA wooden plank challenges; and

w learning about local transportation innovators to identify some of the many planes, boats and bridges visible on the Fraser River.

Summer Discovery Days events for the long weekend will take place Saturday, Aug. 5 through Monday, Aug 7 from 10 a m to 4 p m daily

All programs are on a drop-in basis, so you don’t need to sign up ahead.

While you’re there, you can also check out the new UNINTERRUPTED virtual reality exhibition (see more below)

The Fraser River Discovery Centre is at 788 Quayside Dr , next to River Market

Find details at its website, www fraserriver discovery org

Experience salmon in virtual reality

A new virtual reality exhibit is awaiting visitors to Fraser River Discovery Centre this summer.

The exhibit, UNINTERRUPTED, is on at the New West centre until Sept. 30.

Visitors don virtual reality headsets to witness “the beauty and struggle” of salmon migration through the heart of the city, a press release noted.

“Woven through the original soundscape, they will also hear the voice of Secwépemc Elder, Dr. Mary Thomas, as she shares a story about salmon in her language,” the release explained.

The original edition of UNINTERRUPTED projected the salmon’s journey onto a bridge; it’s been adapted for viewing with virtual reality headsets so it can travel to venues around the province

It’s presented in partnership with Canada Wild and with financial support from BC Hydro.

The exhibition is included in the price of admission to the Discovery Centre.

Jumble market invites New Westies to declutter

NaveenaVijayan nvijayan@newwestrecord ca

We don’t have to watch an entire season of Hoarders to realize that things pile up easily Before we know it, we have three sets of wine glasses that will never see the light of day,

no matter how many wineand-cheese evenings come our way

So, what do we do with these items that are perfectly intact but gathering dust?

The upcoming Jumble community market at

MasseyTheatre’s Eighth and Eight Creative Spaces might just be the perfect solution for a summer clear-out.

The flea market and swap meet was conceptualized by NewWest resident and artist Julia

Schoennagel as a way for the community and local seniors to sell unwanted items that may be sitting around the house or collecting dust in the garage, said Ashton Ramsay, head of engagement at Massey Theatre

“There are a lot of New Westminsterites who live in apartment buildings or may not have the capacity to hold a garage sale. So, this is an opportunity for the community and artists to come together and sell anything and everything under one roof – whether it’s toasters, wine glasses or homemade pottery It really is a jumble!” said Ramsay.

Registrations are now open for the event that can accommodate about 30 vendors

“This is the first time

that Eighth and Eight has held a multidisciplinary market like this, and we’re hoping that it won’t be the last,” he said.

Jumble market will be open between 11 a m and 4 p.m. on Aug. 12 and 13, at Eighth and Eight Creative Spaces, 735 Eighth Ave Tables can be booked at $25 for one day and $40 for two days Visit Eighth and Eight website,www.eighthandeight. com, or call the MasseyTheatre administration office at 604-517-5900 to book.The deadline to apply is Friday, August 4
