Summer ﬂavour: A Johnny’s Pops operator sets up his mobile food bike at Uptown Live in New West. The gourmet popsicle maker is making his way back to the city to offer up his cool treats at this year’s Columbia StrEAT Food Truck Fest on Saturday, Aug. 23.

Expect some flavour to roll into town this month for the Columbia StrEAT Food Truck Fest. Downtown’s main strip will become a sea of food trucks on Saturday, Aug. 23 for the festival, now in its second year and organized by the Downtown New Westminster Business Improvement Area (BIA). “We’re hoping for 40,000 (attendees),” said BIA executive director Kendra Johnston. They plan to feed the hungry visitors with offerings from about 50 food carts as

well as a mini-farmers’ market. The association beefed up the number of food trucks after last year’s event, which had just 15 trucks. The BIA was expecting 10,000 people to turn up in 2013 – but double that number came out. The hefty turnout meant people had to wait in “horrendous” line-ups for food – something Johnston hopes to minimize this time around. “It was the best possible problem to have, but a big problem,” she said. Hopefully, the only problem attendees have this year is deciding on what to order from the many delicious food truck menus. The fest will include what Johnston

called “atmospheric” live music – performers playing not on a stage but throughout the event. There will also be a “pop-up park,” offering visitors a place to lay down a picnic blanket and enjoy their meal. Beer gardens will be located at The Heritage Grill, The Columbia and The Met, with the latter featuring local favourites Steel & Oak craft beers. “Feedback from last year was for more craft beer,” Johnston said. More beer offerings and more food trucks likely means more fun all around. For the entire list of tasty options trucking this way, visit www.downtownnewwest. ca.

A “ridiculous response” is how the New Westminster Teachers’ Union president describes the provincial government’s $40-a-day offer to parents if the teachers strike continues into September. “It simply seems to be another poke in the eye to teachers,” said Grant Osborne. “We have been trying to resolve it … instead we’ve been hit with this $40 for parents, and I’m a parent as well, but $40 doesn’t address my son’s class size or ratios around teacher/librarians or (English as a Second Language).” The union wants to see caps on class size and composition similar to those that were stripped from their collective agreement in 2002. “It was reams and reams of collective agreement material that was torn out of a contract that was deemed illegal,” the local union president said, referring to a B.C. Supreme Court decision, which struck down legislation that removed class size and composition from the teachers’ contract. The government is appealing the ruling. Meanwhile, the government’s negotiator and the B.C. Teachers’ Federation resumed formal contract talks last Friday. Despite the ongoing uncertainty and lack of movement, Osborne remains “hopeful” that a deal will be reached. He also dismisses the notion that some teachers may be losing faith in

Organizer Douglas Smith was already thinking of the line-up for next year the day after Sunday’s Uptown Live. Thousands flocked to the city’s uptown core at Sixth Street and Sixth Avenue to take in the daylong musical offerings that included the Texas-quartet Bright Light Social Hour, percussion-rich Five Alarm Funk and Americana-inspired rockers The Matinée. “I think we couldn’t be happier with the evolution of this event,” Smith told The Record Monday. “I think the overall response was really, really positive.” Uptown Live organizers plan to meet with the city to “debrief” on the event, Smith said. “We are anxious to enter into a longerterm agreement with the city to help in the

planning and sustaining (of) this event,” he said. Smith looks forward to having more time to plan for next year – rather than the four short months they had to pull off Sunday’s event. Smith is the force behind the Khatsahlano and Surrey Fusion Festivals, which are magnets for their respective host areas. One of his goals is to create the same legacy for Uptown Live – to help the city show off what it has to offer. “It seems like for the first time we are kind of in the consciousness of the Lower Mainland, and that’s a huge,” he said. But for Smith it all comes down to the music. “Uptown Live is staying true to its roots, and it’s all about the music … we are going to stay true to our roots,” he said. “We want to stay true to that, and the (Uptown) BIA is

on the same page in terms of what we feel we are trying to achieve.” The date of Uptown Live – funded by the City of New Westminster, the Uptown Business Association and various corporate sponsors – was scheduled to run along with the Hyack Festival parade (Smith is the former executive director of Hyack), but that date provided too little time to organize the music and street festival. Changing the event date came with “risks,” Smith said, but it was a move they had to make. “We made the transition to the summer, and we are happy we did, and the future looks really, really bright,” he said. The introduction of beer gardens brought a new flavour to the event – something Smith said they felt was necessary for festivalgoers’ overall experience. ◗Uptown Live Page 4

commuter traffic in the Lower Mainland. The “it will make life more difficult for our residents” argument just doesn’t cut it anymore. Traffic, like water, will find a way. Whether it is through neighbourhoods or industrial areas, it is hard to hold it back. The unfortunate fact of the Braid Street Bailey bridge battle is that the route is a natural collector for commercial traffic from the warehouses and small commercial enterprises that operate in that area. It’s always been a struggle for them to manage the one-lane rickety bridge and

the railroad tracks. But they managed. Now with two lanes, commuters will see the route as a viable alternative or shortcut and it will become just as congested as the one-lane was – if not more congested. The only bright spot in the new arrangement is the fact that there will be a pedestrian path and bike lane. While the area isn’t exactly Stanley Park, the creek is home to otters and waterfowl and perhaps someone will step up and adopt the neglected waterway as an environmental project.

Collapse could be Liberal opportunity IN THE HOUSE

KEITH BALDREY

he recent disaster of the collapse of the Mount Polley mine tailings pond may force the B.C. Liberals to finally revisit a key policy decision made early on in its first mandate: the cutting back of environmental protection measures. Since 2001, environmental critics have denounced the government for turning a blind eye to environmental protection and have long warned a disaster was just around the corner. Well, that disaster has now occurred. As of this writing, it is still not clear why the tailings pond failed, and dumped 10 million cubic metres of water and 4.5 million cubic metres of mine slurry into Polley and Quesnel Lakes. Energy and Mines Minister Bill Bennett has denied that a lack of inspections played any role in the pond collapse, and has insisted the number of annual mine inspections is pretty well the same as five years ago. He may well be proven right that inspections (or a lack of them) played no role in the tailings pond collapse but the

Mount Polley disaster has nevertheless re-focused attention on the B.C. Liberals’ controversial historical record when it comes to protecting the environment. That controversy pretty much started right after Gordon Campbell and the B.C. Liberals were swept into power in 2001. At that time, the government proceeded to gut a number of government programs and budgets, which included reducing staff in areas it obviously considered to be of low-priority status, such as environmental protection. It was obvious early on the B.C. Liberals did not share the same zeal for environmental issues that characterized much of what the previous government, formed by the NDP, seemed to be all about. The environment ministry lost a quarter of its staff. Not only did the B.C. Liberals cut resources for environmental protection, it implemented a fundamental and philosophical shift when it came to this issue. It essentially moved to a self-regulating and selfenforcement model for natural resource companies. Penalties were increased for violations of environmental protection rules and regulations, but companies were essentially allowed to police themselves. Critics predicted this would translate into more incidents that could threaten environmental values. Indeed, over the years, there

Dear Editor:

Re: New West residents divided on truck ban, The Record, Aug. 1. In the article by Theresa McManus, the following was written: “Not everyone supports the city’s position, with Dave Lundy being among those who believe TransLink made the right decision. In a comment posted on The Record’s Facebook page, he expressed concern that the city is ‘talking out of both sides of their mouth’ on the issue, as it’s allowed off-dock container yards to open in Queensborough but still voices concerns about increased truck traffic in the city.” I constantly hear people complaining about the amount of truck traffic going through New Westminster and it being an election year, I see that ◗Spill Page 7 our politicians are once again using the trucks as

I thought I would take some time to explain my position and also to perhaps explain where these trucks are coming from and going to and why some trucks use the Pattullo Bridge instead of the tolled Port Mann. In fact, New Westminster city staff and council have allowed a huge expansion of warehousing and distribution centres in the Queensborough area. There are two “off dock container facilities” (one on Boyd Street and one on Ewen Avenue) a massive distribution centre behind the Loews store, the Queensborough Logistics Centre on Duncan (with another distribution centre under construction on the same site.)

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Build it, trucks will come ◗ continued from page 6

Queensborough Logistics Centre as well as other facilities across the Lower Mainland. Along with others, we deliver containers from the four container docks in the Lower Mainland, Vanterm, Centerm, Deltaport and Fraser Surrey Docks to places like Queensborough Logistics, who then unload the marine containers and load railway Intermodal containers (mainly 53foot containers) with the goods. This is called “cross docking.” Something prior to trucking I also used to do. The two railways, CP and CN, truck their empty intermodal containers either from their facilities in Pitt Meadows and the North foot of 176th Street respectively, or from other rail customers who they delivered to. Then they take the loaded containers back to the respective rail terminals to be shipped across Canada. Between the rail containers and the marine containers, there is a lot of truck traffic generated by an operation such as the one in Queensborough. I don’t know why or how come city staff, council or the mayor wouldn’t have known this. It’s kind of like Field of Dreams build a big distribution centre for major Canadian retailers, and “they will come” by the truckload. Plus collect taxes and licensing revenue from these businesses as well. So you have the city complaining

about all the trucks going through New West on the one hand, while on the other collecting taxes and fees from businesses operating in Queensborough, which are bringing those trucks into and out of New West. As a truck driver, as well as a citizen of New Westminster, this is aggravating to say the least. As for why trucks use the Pattullo Bridge, well shippers do not want to pay the toll for the Port Mann Bridge. And the driver and owner operator isn’t going to pay for the toll out of their pocket on behalf of either their employer or the shipper. And as for East Eighth Avenue, when I’m coming from Port Coquitlam in the morning, I use the Pattullo when I’m accessing the South Fraser Perimeter Road to head west. after 7 a.m. when its legal to use it. (From 9 p.m. to 7 a.m. both East Eighth and Royal avenues are restricted to trucks, meaning they can’t use those routes). A lot of the time its faster to use East Eighth Avenue to access the Pattullo than to sit in the traffic on Columbia Street waiting to use the on-ramp. It should be noted that the congestion on the on-ramp is more often than not cars, not always trucks. But as always, it all depends on traffic, not just truck traffic. I hope that this will help people understand where my “both sides of their mouths” thinking is coming from. Dave Lundy, New Westminster

have been a number of tailings pond failures and breaches of dams, including the collapse of an earthen dam near Oliver in 2010 that destroyed five homes. Premier Christy Clark has made it clear her government’s core philosophical value is to “grow the economy,” particularly through the natural resource extraction industry. In particular, it has championed the mining industry and the natural gas sector. However, as practices such as fracking become more controversial and as various infrastructure around the province (such as dams, tailing ponds and pipelines, for example) gradually age, her government will undoubtedly feel more pressure to ensure more serious environmental disasters do not occur. While the B.C. Liberals rightly feel their surprise

re-election in 2013 was strongly tied to its proindustry platform and a much weaker pro-industry platform put forth by the NDP, they may risk losing support if there are any more major accidents. As Finance Minister Mike de Jong puts together next year’s budget, he may ponder whether it is politically prudent to revisit the resources he has allocated to two ministries given short shrift in his threeyear fiscal plan. The environment ministry is scheduled for a tiny ($6 million) lift to its current annual budget of $134 million. That doesn’t suggest any major increase for environmental protection measures, such as inspections and enforcement. And the energy and mines ministry, which conducts those tailing ponds inspections, has its small annual budget of $21 million frozen for the next

two years. Given inflation and other cost pressures, it’s hard to see how that translates into more inspections. Clark has tried to distance herself from her predecessor, Gordon Campbell, in a number of areas since taking over from him. She’s increased the minimum wage, scrapped the HST and folded the Pacific Carbon Trust. Perhaps she will use the Mount Polley disaster as an opportunity to distance herself from Campbell even further, by implementing a more aggressive approach to environmental protection. The government will understandably never abandon its support for natural resource industries, including mining. But there’s not much political downside to painting itself with a greener brush.

Assault suspect sought BY CAYLEY DOBIE REPORTER cdobie@royalcityrecord.com

New Westminster police are asking for the public’s help in identifying a man who allegedly groped a woman on Seventh Avenue last week. On Aug. 6, a woman reported to police she was attacked by an unknown man while walking in the 1800 block of Seventh Avenue around 11 a.m., according to a press release from police. The woman told police she was walking east down Seventh Avenue when she passed a man “who appeared to be urinating in public.” The woman continued down the street for several blocks when the same man

“snuck up behind her and groped her in a sexual manner.” According to police, the victim screamed, which scared off the suspect. Police were called to the scene but weren’t able to find the man. The suspect is described as a Caucasian in his 30s, about 5-10 and clean shaven. He was wearing a grey toque, green tshirt, beige shorts, white running shoes and white socks, which were pulled up to his knees. Anyone with information on the identity of the suspect or incident is asked to call Const. Jaqueline Mula at 604-5255411 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-2228477. Follow Cayley on Twitter, @cayleydobie

Local sheds light on tough times

BY CORNELIA NAYLOR REPORTER cnaylor@royalcityrecord.com

A New Westminster Secondary grad has brought to life a turbulent chapter of Vancouver history that will be featured in both a TV documentary and a book this week. Stevie Wilson, who graduated from NWSS in 2006, is co-producer and writer of Catch the Westbound Train, an awardwinning, short-form documentary that airs on the Knowledge Network on Thursday. The film delves into the history of The Great Depression in Vancouver and the flood of transient, unemployed men that came with it because Vancouver was the only Canadian city “where you could starve to death before you froze to death.”

Wilson’s work on the same subject will also be featured in Vancouver Confidential, a mid-twentieth century social history/ anthology that focuses on the lives of common folk in the port city. Wilson’s chapter (and much of Catch the Westbound Train) centres on the socalled “hobo jungles” that sprang up in Vancouver in the 1930s to house the transient men who poured into the city at that time. Wilson stumbled on the subject while looking for material for a Vancouver history column she writes for Scout Magazine, a popular food and culture website. Serendipitously, a friend and documentary filmmaker, Sean Shaul, approached ◗History Page 14

Bantams close; midgets win in a walk BY TOM BERRIDGE SPORTS EDITOR tberridge@royalcityrecord.com

B.C.’s bantam boys’ representative lacrosse team gave Ontario all it could handle at the Commissioners national championships. Team B.C., including New West’s Cole Catton, Johnny Edin, captain Jordy Mahal and Finn Stark, led from the opening goal but could not quite hold on before surrendering a 5-4 loss to Ontario late in the game in the gold-medal final at Queen’s Park Arena on Saturday. Carter McKenzie scored the game-winning goal for the Ontario all-stars unassisted off a rebound on goal at 12:18 of the third period. Earlier in the period, Brett Handsor knotted the game at 4-4 for the eventual champs. Edin was B.C.’s game star, stopping 31 shots in the B.C. goal. Brett Underwood faced just 18 shots in the Ontario cage. “I just did my best,” said Edin, who posted a .856 save percentage in the championship tournament coming into the final game. “It was amazing. It was one of the best things I’ve ever been to. I’d just do it again in a heartbeat.” Hearts were certainly in the throats of the sizable crowd that took in the gold-medal game. Jake Cantlon of Delta opened the scoring with his first of two goals. Connor Wilson of Juan de Fuca gave B.C. a 2-0 lead on a nice passing play from Mahal and Stark. Stark closed out the period with his seventh

At the nats: B.C.’s bantam boys’ lacrosse team, in blue, lost a tight 5-4 ﬁnal to Ontario in the gold-medal game at the national championships at Queen’s Park Arena on Saturday. goal and 11th point at the nationals. Burnaby’s Sajjun Shokar set up Cantlon for a shorthanded breakaway goal midway through the second frame to help give B.C. a 4-2 advantage. But Ontario kept up the attack, winning a lot of the loose-ball battles in the later periods. “We didn’t get enough quality shots,” said B.C. head coach Rich Catton. Earlier in the week, Ontario beat B.C. 5-3 in the round-robin. B.C. edged Alberta 6-5 to advance to the gold-medal match.

Edin stopped 20 shots in goal to get the win. The unbeaten B.C. midget boys were runaway winners in their age group, defeating Alberta 14-2 to win the gold. B.C. went a perfect 7-0 and compiled 105 goals for with just seven goals against. Burnaby’s Mackenzie Burns recorded four goals and two assists for B.C. in the tournament. B.C.’s midget gold medal proved a warmup for a five-game series

with Ontario that will be played in conjunction with the upcoming Minto Cup in Langley, beginning Sunday, Aug. 17. “It gives us a lot To view a video, of time to work as scan a team,” said B.C. with midget runner Layar Tavin Grant, who lost the peewee title to Ontario and a 6-4 heartbreaker as a bantam. “It’s just so much of a rivalry for our age group. I just love it.” Game 1 will be played in Coquitlam on Sunday. Games 2 and 3 will be at Queen’s Park Arena.

Game 4 is in Coquitlam and 5 in Langley. The B.C. peewee team, including Kai George of New West and Burnaby’s Thomas Vela, was beaten 8-2 by Ontario in the final. B.C. got by Alberta 5-2 to make it into the goldmedal game. Vela had a big game in B.C.’s opening 18-1 win over Nova Scotia, scoring two goals and adding two assists. George had two goals and two assists in B.C. wins over Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Saskatchewan and Alberta.

The New Westminster Salmonbellies find themselves in a must-win situation following an 11-8 loss in Victoria on Sunday. New West fell behind 5-0 in the opening period of Game 3 in the Western Lacrosse Association bestof-seven semifinal. The Salmonbellies clawed the deficit back to 8-6 in the middle stanza, sparked in part by threeassist periods by Logan Schuss and Brendan Ranford. But Victoria wasn’t about to let the game slip away. Friday night hero Dhane Smith kept the ’Rocks rolling in the third, assisting on all three of Victoria’s markers. Alexis Buque stopped 38 shots for New West. The loss came just two days after Friday’s heartbreaking 13-12 defeat at Queen’s Park, where Victoria scored four times in the final minute of play to snatch victory in Game 2. “We’re not giving up,” said Salmonbellies head coach Steve Goodwin. “You deal with it, forget about it and move on. That’s the position we took to the team.” Game 4 is today (Wednesday) at Queen’s Park Arena at 7:45 p.m.

Midgets win third straight title; bantams get second BY TOM BERRIDGE SPORTS EDITOR tberridge@royalcityrecord.com

B.C. girls won two of three national lacrosse championship titles in Whitby, Ont. The provincial bantam and midget girls both came away champions over host Ontario, while the junior girls earned a bronze medal at the Ontario Lacrosse Festival at Iroquois Park last week. The midget girls, including tournament all-star goalie Bianca Ballarin and New Westminster teammates Katie Browning, Delaney Davidson, Chloe Nottingham, Keeley O’Neill and Nadine Stewart, and Carlene Spagnuolo of Burnaby, defeated Ontario 6-2 in the gold-medal final to earn B.C.’s third straight national age-group title at this division. The B.C. midget team went unbeaten at the nationals, forging a 5-0-1 record in the

double round-robin, including a 2-2 draw with Ontario on Aug. 7. “It was really nice to see. We were trying a lot of different things in the round robin,” said B.C. midget head coach Dan Stroup. “The team was unbelievable, their defence, transition and O (offence) was better than any other team.” Stewart topped the locals with seven goals and nine points, while O’Neill had four goals and four assists in tournament play. Spagnuolo chipped in with six markers. The bantam girls, including New West’s Hannah-Lise Bernoe, Caitlin Croxen, Graceyn Dean, Andreea Serbanescu and Priya Sidhu, had a tougher go of it, losing their opening game 3-1 to Alberta and one of two earlier meetings with Ontario in the double preliminary rounds. “We had heard rumours about Alberta

and how good they were; they showed up,” said B.C. bantam head coach Chris Gill. B.C. bounced back from the Aug. 6 loss to Alberta, edging the hosts 3-1. But Ontario came back in the return match, eking out a 4-3 win to set the stage for a winner-take-all final game. B.C. turned the tables on Ontario, winning the gold medal 4-3 in a tight championship final that went down to the final minutes. Trailing 3-1 in the final seven minutes, Ontario capitalized on a pair of powerplay goals to draw even with B.C. Mykhaela Johnson of Ridge Meadows scored the game-winner on a pick-and-roll to the net late in the game. “It was pretty awesome,” said Gill. “It was tough for the bantams, many of them hadn’t been there before. “It was a big thing for B.C. It was pretty

special.” Bernoe and Dean were the top New West scorers with seven points, including five and four goals, respectively. Serbanescu also tallied four times in a six-point tournament contribution. Alberta also had a strong bantam showing, finishing the tournament with a record of 5-2, including a 5-4 win over Ontario in the preliminary round, and the bronze medal. The junior girls team of Leah Purdey of New West and Burnaby’s Raffaella Caporale, Amanda Jackson, Orchid Kamron, Monica Mastromonaco and Angela Preissl, won the bronze medal following a 5-3 win over Nova Scotia. Ontario won the gold 8-1 over Alberta. Fourteen-year-old first-year midget callup Megan Stewart of Ridge Meadows was named a junior all-star, leading the team with seven goals and four assists.
