Transit use still down from 2013 fare hike Revenue, spending up slightly: TransLink report JEFF NAGEL BLACK PRESS

JANIS WARREN/THE TRI-CITY NEWS

Gathering for the first, and probably the last time, are some of Tri-City public schools’ valedictorians: Top row, from left, Jenny Wang (Pinetree secondary), Kelsi James (Dr. Charles Best) and Leanna Hogarth (Heritage Woods); bottom row, from left, Tyler Ashbury (Centennial), Isaac Mand (Gleneagle) and Yeedo Chun (Heritage Woods).

Transit ridership in Metro Vancouver still hasn’t recovered to 2012 levels after a fare increase in January of 2013 spurred more users to drive instead. TransLink’s annual report shows 234.6 million passengers were carried in 2014, up marginally from 233.9 million in 2013, but still 1.8% below 2012’s 238.8 million, prior to fares going up. “Ongoing analysis into the decline in ridership suggests that the 2013 fare increase had a longer lasting effect on ridership than expected,” the report said. Although ridership was up marginally, fares paid actually dropped $1.2 million in 2014 due to more passengers using discounted passes or prepaid tickets instead of more expensive cash fares. see COST RECOVERY, page 17

‘Why not start earlier?’ parent asks DIANE STRANDBERG Tri-CiTy News

A funding announcement for an $18-million elementary school on Burke Mountain

is expected this fall with the hopes that it will be built in three years or less to relieve enrolment pressures in the growing neighbourhood. Coquitlam-Burke Mountain MLA Douglas Horne made the prediction Tuesday at a special public meeting on land acquisition for five new schools

on four properties on Burke Mountain. “Were in a process that we are all very confident is going to get the results we need,” said Horne. The news should be a relief for parents of young children in the Coquitlam neighbourhood but many left the meeting dis-

appointed Smiling Creek elementary won’t be built sooner and a promised middle school is still eight or nine years away. “Why not start earlier?” Nicole Jones, the mother of a pre-schooler and five-year-old, told The Tri-City News. see SD43 HAD TO, page 9

THE 2015 VALEDICTORIANS

‘Thirteen years, guys, now where do we go?’ words to graduate by SD43 grad 2015 valedictorians share their words of wisdom JANIS WARREN

The Tri-CiTy News

Dr. Charles Best’s performed a slam poem. Pinetree’s talked about transitions. And Gleneagle’s took a selfie on stage. The valedictorians in School District 43’s 2015 high school graduating classes have original speeches filled with high school memories and hopes for bright futures. They are grateful for the friendships they made, the dedication of teachers and principals, and the devotion of their parents, their biggest cheerleaders. They offer up funny moments and awkward situations, and voice fears about the student debt many are about to incur. These valedictorians represent the best of the best, as voted on by their peers. The Tri-City News asked them for their commencement speeches; an excerpt of each is printed below.

GALEN DOERKSEN CABE

• Advice to next year’s grad class: “Don’t be afraid of life after graduating because some people don’t get the chance and we need to live it up for them.” • Excerpt from commencement speech (to be delivered June 22 at the Hard Rock Casino Vancouver): “Be happy that you are here to enjoy all the ups and downs, all the good times and bad times because I know I will cherish every moment.” • Next steps: Vancouver Community College culinary arts program to become a chef

TYLER ASHBURY CENTENNIAL

• Advice to next year’s grad class: “Get involved. Try to build as many connections

Some of the valedictorians from Tri-City public schools: Above, Isaac Mand of Gleneagle took a selfie during his valedictory speech. The others, clockwise from top right: Yeedo Chun, Heritage Woods; Leanna Hogarth, Heritage Woods; Jenny Wang, Pinetree; Kelsi James, Dr. Charles Best; Galen Doerksen, CABE; and Tyler Ashbury, Centennial. as you can in order to make the most of your last year as a grad class. Don’t let the school work stress you out. Have fun but keep in mind that things will change next year and you should cherish your final year as a high school student.” • Excerpt from commencement speech (to be delivered June 24 at the Orpheum Theatre): “Too often, children overlook the work that their parents or guardians do for them. I’m a victim of it my-

self. It’s crazy to think that in five or 10 years we could be in their shoes. When you look at it from that perspective, it really all changes. Having a child forces you to dedicate your life to them. If any of us decide to do so, you’ll begin to realize: You are now not the most important person in the world. This is what these people have done for us. They’ve already lived through our time, and they are going to do anything in their power to make sure

we make the best of it. All of you parents and guardians should be very proud of yourselves. Your child has made it this far. They are here today to move on into the big world. If all goes well, we will be out of the house soon and it’ll be time for you to party it up all over again. “To all of the parents and guardians, although we may not express it often, we are all very, very grateful for the love and care you have given and

for sacrificing so much of your lives to ensure the success and happiness of our future.” • Next steps: UBC engineering, career in civil engineering

ISAAC MAND GLENEAGLE

• Advice to next year’s grad class: “Grade 12 is a year full of surprises and change. Your success over the next year is going to depend on your ability to predict and adapt to situations on the fly. If you have not

already started to plan your post-secondary endeavours, no time is better than the present. Grade 12 is life in the fastlane — don’t get left behind.” • Excerpt from commencement speech (delivered June 14 at the Orpheum Theatre): Takes a selfie. “If someone wants to post that on Instagram or Facebook for me later, that would be great because I don’t have either. see ‘YOU ARE’, page 4

‘You are worth celebrating’: Wang continued from page 3

“I never really got into the whole social media thing. The stress of trying to figure out what angles make my butt look the biggest never really was my cup of tea. It’s not like I don’t respect social media, though. Among other things, I feel that they are great outlets to share and store memories. Everything that we’ve done up to this point right now, every memory that we’ve created either individually or together, has had an effect on who we are today. And thanks to social media, we have a handy little album of all those edits literally in the palm of our hands every second throughout the day (unless you’re relying upon the WiFi in the math wing). Anyways, for me, everything I have experienced up to this point has built me up to become your valedictorian. And I have to say it is quite the honour.” • Next steps: UVic engineering, career in biomedical engineering

KELSI JAMES DR. CHARLES BEST

• Advice to next year’s grad class: “Forget regret or life is yours to miss. No other path, no other way, no day but today” (from the musical Rent). • Excerpt from commencement speech, in spoken word (delivered June 6 at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre): thirteen years, guys, now where do we go? Robert Frost would say “take the less travelled road” Who knows? yo the decision is ours everything that we’ve done has won us these cards now it’s our turn, to get to go far look where we are carry on, my wayward sons tomorrow’s the future, today is day one if life’s a scrabble board, we’re placing new tiles

this is our cake baked of rainbows and smiles so smile ’cuz we’ve made it at last we’ve come all this way, they can’t make us go back

now to prove, please remove your sketchy blue hat I’ve never been prouder of this awesome grad class. • Next steps: Sheridan College musical theatre performance, career in acting

LEANNA HOGARTH HERITAGE WOODS

• Advice to next year’s grad class: “Don’t live your life sitting on pins and needles. The present moment, the here and now, that’s all that matters.” • Excerpt from commencement speech (to be delivered June 20 at SFU, with co-valedictorian Yeedo Chun, see below): “After 12 years of education — 12 years of hard work and dedication — it seems like today we are starting all over again. Many of us here today will be entering post-secondary institutions where we’ll study ourselves into unfathomable debts, to get jobs so we can spend our lives working to pay back our school loans. Others will go to work straight away. The end result is likely us breaking our backs trying to earn a buck or two. No matter how we cut the cake, it is the inescapable truth that mankind has an obsession for futile, meaningless efforts… We must not let occupations define us as something we are not. We must not let societal pressures unduly affect our values and morals. It is all our responsibilities to find our own meanings in life and live it passionately and happily. Our work does not have to be Sisyphean by nature, for if we retain our own purposes, our own reasons to live, our efforts become noble, in that we are working towards a beautiful goal.” • Next steps: UBC engineering, career in biomedical engineering

YEEDO CHUN HERITAGE WOODS

• Advice to next year’s grad class: “Do not let any situation you face in life define you as something you are not.” • Next steps: UBC engineering, career in engineering

JENNY WANG PINETREE

• Advice to next year’s grad class: “Don’t take yourself so seriously. You are still young. There’s no rush to have the rest of your life planned out. Work hard to have a high school career you can be proud of but don’t forget to enjoy it as well.” • Excerpt from commencement speech (delivered June 6 at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre): “When we first stepped foot into Pinetree, we were not the people we are today. I mean, people are using deodorant now and the eyeliner is starting to look a lot more even. Some of you are even working out. I did not think that some of you were capable of developing muscles but you sure proved me wrong. But I’m getting off track. You have all changed so much over these past four years — whether it be physically, mentally or even in maturity — and you will surely grow even further no matter which path you choose to take. Now, I can’t guarantee anything about the future you but I can guarantee something about the current you. The people that you were during high school and the person that you are today: You are worth remembering. You are worth celebrating. And I wouldn’t have wanted to graduate with any other class.” • Next steps: UCLA economics, career in business

SAIF NAYANI PORT MOODY

• Advice to next year’s grad class: “Find balance in your lives. Grade 12 is not an easy time in the life of a student so it’s important to not let yourself get overwhelmed by all the stress of the academic world.

This Week!

Speak up! You can comment on any story you read at www.tricitynews.com

Whether it’s spending some time on Netflix or going for a run here and there to alleviate the stress, do whatever it is you need to do to be stress-free.” • Excerpt from commencement speech (to be delivered June 20 at the Orpheum Theatre): “Port Moody. We all kinda grew up there. We just spent the possibly four most important years of our lives growing into who we are today. We went from being cute little Grade 9s — thinking we were better than everyone — to being mature Grade 12s who are now convinced we’re better than everyone. We walked

off. I still can’t wrap my head around it all. When I was a kid, I always looked at my older brothers and sisters and thought, ‘One day, I’m gonna look like a teenager. Just like them.’ You know what I mean? They all just looked so old and big and, well, like teenagers. But as I entered Grade 12, I looked around and failed to notice just about any difference at all. Sure, we’ve all grown and developed but I can’t help but see you guys as the kids I went to elementary school with. Whenever I look in the mirror, I see a small, chubby me looking back. It’s just hard to believe that we kids are ready to put on our big-boy pants and be sent into the real world.” • Next steps: UBC economics, career in finance

CHAFER BEETLES

Watering reg exemptions after nematodes applied GARY MCKENNA

The Tri-CiTy News

Lawn watering restrictions will be relaxed for Coquitlam residents battling the chafer beetle this summer. The city is offering permits that allow residents treating their property with nematodes to water outside of the restricted times for a three-week period. Nematodes have proven to be effective in battling the beetles and work best when applied to thoroughly watered lawns during the grubs’ most vulnerable stage, which is generally

FILE PHOTO

Birds, raccoons and skunks have dug up lawns looking for beetles. between July 1 and Aug. 15. But homeowners looking to use the permits as a way of getting around sprinkling regula-

tions during the hottest months of the year may want to think twice. Steffanie Warriner, the city’s manager of environmental

services, said residents will have to indicate the size and location of the affected areas on their property and a proof of purchase for the nematodes. “Once a permit is issued, it must be posted at the front of the property for the duration of the treatment,” she said. “The watering permit is valid only for the area on the property where the nematode treatment has been specified.” The permits will only be available during first and second stage watering restrictions. If the region’s relatively dry spring leads to a water shortage,

Metro Vancouver would elevate to stage three and four and all permits would be rescinded. The European chafer beetle was first spotted in New Westminster in 2001 but has since spread across the Lower Mainland, including to Coquitlam, Port Coquitlam and Port Moody. The beetles do not damage lawns but raccoons, crows and skunks that eat the grubs generally have to tear through the grass to get at them. In Coquitlam, 8% of the city’s parks and public spaces have been affected by the bugs and could cost

thousands to repair the damage. Nematodes can be purchased from most garden centres and landscaping stores but gardening experts say that the best defence against chafer beetles is a healthy lawn. Port Coquitlam and Port Moody are also offering lawn watering exemption permits through their city websites and more information about the insects can be found at portcoquitlam.ca/chaferbeetle, coquitlam.ca/chaferbeetle and portmoody.ca/chaferbeetle. gmckenna@tricitynews.com @gmckennaT

DOGS IN PARKS

Leash your dog, pick up its poop Coq. bylaw officers will be handing out tickets in parks SARAH PAYNE

The Tri-CiTy News

Think your dog is harmless enough to go off-leash at the park? Coquitlam bylaw officers are hoping you think of other park users first before you unhook that leash. And if you don’t, they’ll be waiting with ticket books in hand. The city’s bylaw officers are cracking down on scofflaw dog owners in an effort to make sure parks remain user-friendly for all people and animals. They’ll be out reminding dog owners to keep their pets on a leash, to pick up after them and dispose of the bags properly, and to ensure pooches are properly licensed. “What we’re trying to do is make people a little bit aware of other people’s perspective,” said Andrea MacDonald, Coquitlam’s manager of bylaws and animal control services. “It’s not about whether your

Bylaw officers are on the lookout for off-leash pooches. dogs are friendly — there are people who are genuinely afraid of dogs, people who are nervous to be knocked down by a dog. “People need to feel safe in the park, so this is about appreciating and understanding other people’s perspective that they shouldn’t have to be approached, even by a friendly dog.” Officers will focus the dog enforcement blitz in Mundy, Town Centre and Coquitlam River parks, where they get the most number of calls about pooches off leash. Also on their radar will be Mackin, Miller, Como Lake and Glen parks, as well as the Coquitlam Crunch, but MacDonald said officers will be checking smaller neighbour-

hood parks within their zones as well. The stepped-up efforts started at the beginning of June with an eye to educating dog owners and increasing awareness — but that will soon come to an end. “There will be a strong focus on ticketing and people will be ticketed for not following the rules,” MacDonald said. Those tickets come with a $150 fine for an off-leash or unlicensed dog, and for droppings that aren’t picked up (the fine drops to $100 if paid within 14 days). MacDonald said having a dog properly licensed is the best way to be reunited with your pooch as quickly as possible should it get away from you, adding if a bylaw officer can reach the owner, they’ll drive the dog home. As for those biodegradable or compostable dog waste bags, they can take years to break down and still need to be placed in a garbage can, MacDonald said, not tossed in the forest. • Visit www.coquitlam.ca/ trainyourhuman for more information. spayne@tricitynews.com @spayneTC

SD43 had to wait for students to move in continued from front page

“It’s poor planning.” But the school district says it couldn’t get approval to buy the land until students were living in the area. It finally got the go-ahead a year ago, which started an “exhaustive process” of negotiations. “Detailed costing can’t be done until you’ve got the site,” Ivano Cecchini, School District 43’s principal of facilities initiatives, told anxious parents, “you only have one chance to go to government.” SD43 now has land needed for five schools, down from eight originally projected for the fast-growing area, and with the deal comes a $5-million donation for an artificial turf field to be built at a joint middle/secondary school site that was negotiated by the city of Coquitlam with the developer Wesbild as the donor. SD43 secretary treasurer Mark Ferrari said the land deals are good for taxpayers because 35 acres of land worth $50 million was acquired at 90% of market value. The five schools are: • Smiling Creek, on seven acres at Princeton and Queenston, paid for with $5 million from Eligible School Site Acquisition funds, with Coquitlam providing the equivalent, including land, in exchange for Victoria Park lots. Opening date: September 2018 or earlier depending on funding and the construction schedule. • Partington Creek (on Sheffield Street), six acres, acquired by provincial crown grant. Completion: 2020, depending on enrolment. • Marigold elementary, six acres, donated by Wesbild from land recently purchased from the province, located at Marigold Street and David Avenue. Completion: 2025. • Middle school and secondary school, on about 19 acres, most of which is made up of land acquired through provincial Crown grant in 2007, with contributions from the city for a joint school/park. Completion: 2023 and 2024, depending on enrolment.

OUR OPINION

Libraries, links & community

ibraries have evolved over the last couple of decades in an effort to stay relevant in the digital age. And Coquitlam Public Library’s new Library Link, an upgrade from the previous book bus, which burned last May, is an example. The new vehicle will begin operating this summer and will be used to market the library and deliver services, including books, internet access, programming and information to more people. CPL and its counterparts in Port Moody and Port Coquitlam recognize they play a key role in community development. All are enhancing their roles, becoming community centres and hubs for literacy and inquiry, not just book providers. Indeed, program delivery is now as important as providing books, magazines and DVDS. Are libraries becoming obsolete because so much is available online? Unequivocally, no.

WHAT’S YOUR OPINION? VOTE AT tricitynews.com/opinion/poll

THIS WEEK’S QUESTION:

Are libraries are less relevant because more people are getting their entertainment and information online?

LAST WEEK’S QUESTION:

Do you think CIHI data is useful for making an informed a decision on care for an elderly loved one?

Canada needs own internal free trade agreement I AS I SEE IT

t is an embarrassing state of affairs when many small businesses report that north-south trade with the U.S. is easier than east-west trade within Canada. But this is nothing new. It was such a big concern when the North American Free Trade Agreement was coming into force more than two decades ago that the provinces put in place the Agreement on Internal Trade. Unfortunately, that agreement has been a colossal failure. Fast forward to today and the prospects of a trade deal with Europe is shining a spotlight on our domestic dysfunction. Do we want it to be easier for Canadian businesses to trade with other countries than other provinces? Well, of course not. But the big question on everyone’s mind is whether Canada’s provincial and federal governments can deliver a better outcome than last time around. There are some reasons for optimism. On the premiers’ direction, Canada’s trade ministers met for the first time in four years earlier this month to work toward a March 2016 deadline to have a new agreement in place. As part of a business coalition, I presented to the group. The thing that struck me most was the non-partisan environment in the room. Politicians of all stripes seem seri-

ous about working together for the good of the country. They are all saying the right things. But saying the right things is the easy part. Doing the right thing is harder. How important is it that we get it right this time? Very. An overwhelming majority — nine out of 10 — of Canada’s small businesses want the premiers to make free trade within Canada a priority, according to a recent survey done by the Canadian Federation of Independent Business. In the 125 pages of survey comments, there was example after example of domestic trade red tape. In the words of one insurance broker: “The regulations are so varied by province that one almost needs to hire trade lawyers to get things done. Trying to do business in other provinces is severely hampered by this reality.” Many commented on differences in transportation rules (for example, different licensing structures, wideload signs that need to be changed at provincial borders). Others commented on how frustrating it was to deal with different workers’ compensation boards. A local art school owner summed it up well: “Canada should have its own free trade act. It’s sad that it seems easier to do business with the U.S. than Canada.”

A successful agreement will have three characteristics: • It will be comprehensive, covering all goods and services, with any exceptions clearly listed. • Accepting each other’s regulatory standards (mutual recognition) will be the default. If it is safe enough for Quebec, why shouldn’t it be safe enough for B.C. (again, exceptions can be listed). The alternative to accepting each other’s rules is trying to harmonize everything, which is a nightmare of epic proportions in terms of time and energy. • Finally, the agreement will be simple, with a clear and effective dispute mechanism. International agreements have thousands of pages where exceptions can hide, and copying that approach for Canada would be a mistake. We are at a crossroads where provincial leaders can decide to be ambitious and finally make Canada free. They will likely be tempted to focus on eliminating only some barriers. This would be a mistake. Only an ambitious deal will lead to the ambitious outcomes that Canada needs in the modern world. Canada turns 150 in 2017. I can think of no better birthday present for the country than to deliver a real trade agreement that unites us in creating new opportunities.

COQUITLAM PARKS

Spend some money on park restrooms, please The Editor, Re. “Big bucks at city hall: 17 earned over $150k” and “Coquitlam will expand WiFi in city’s parks” (The Tri-City News, June 17). Wednesday’s Tri-City News reported on wages at Coquitlam city hall. I have no problem as I believe that we have a good city council and a great city staff. Another article in the same paper stated the city is about to expand WiFi in city parks. Before taking this step forward in Mundy Park, how about dealing first with the 46-year-old washrooms. I defy anyone to set foot in the men’s washroom and not be mentally taken back to the days of a onehole outhouse. Really, if we can happily pay good salaries and benefits to wonderful staff and also plan for the expense of installing computer gadgets in the parks, we should first build new washrooms.

FILE PHOTO

Visiting ball players and regular park-goers are ill-served by aging, smelly public bathrooms in Coquitlam’s Mundy Park, says letter writer Brian Robinson. This past week, with the sky still clear at 9:30 p.m., the washroom was locked before 8 p.m. A ball game was going on under the lights and a parent watching the game slipped off for a pee. Guess where he headed?

I have played senior slopitch for many years and visiting teams just shake their heads and ask where’s the hot water, the soap and towels? And while you’re at it, do something about the stink. Brian Robinson, Coquitlam

SENIORS’ CARE

Daughter says mom’s care at BLCC excellent The Editor, Re. “Tri-City care facilities fare well against regional stats” (The Tri-City News, June 10). I am writing in response to the article written by reporter Sarah Payne about the Canadian Institute for Health Information report as it pertains to Burquitlam Lions Care Centre in Coquitlam. My 92-year-old mom has been a resident of the BLCC for three years and I have been very pleased with the care she has received from the staff. The staff are compassionate and treat the residents as if they were their own parents. The residents are always reminded that BLCC is their home, not just a place to stay. I have seen the staff on many

occasions stop what they were are doing to sit and chat with a resident who is confused or lonely or agitated. Statistics never show the real picture of a place. Statistics do not show the kindness of a staff member, the compassion for a confused mind, the love of a hug for a sad and lonely person. I do not understand the purpose of the newspaper painting such a negative picture of a place that is home to 76 people who are in the end stages of their lives. While BLCC is not a beautiful, new facility, the staff make it a good place for residents to live out their days. Bernice Muir, New Westminster

Margaux Smith has never been to Cambodia. Nor, for that matter, has she seen much of Canada. But next week, the native of Holland and her mom will launch an adventure of a lifetime: Cycling across this nation to fundraise for a school in the Asian country. “It’s a good way to see Canada,” she said. “I’m so excited to get going.” On Monday, the Smiths will begin their 5,500-km, coast-tocoast journey from York House School in Vancouver and will travel later that day through the Tri-Cities. They’ll make their way along Lougheed Highway, passing through Port Coquitlam — the hometown of Terry Fox, the Canadian hero whose 1980 Marathon of Hope started a slew of cross-Canada benefit runs — before ending their day in Mission. Along the way, the duo will stay in a number of places: homes of follower cyclists (via warmshowers.org, a free hospitality exchange for touring cyclists); friends’ houses; and motels. For their 55 days on the road, they’ll have no escort and will be carrying all of their gear — food, clothing, safety equipment, etc. — themselves. Smith said she has been preparing for a year, exercising on an indoor cycling trainer and cycling once a week for 100 km. And she has learned a lot about the Cambodian school she’s supporting through monthly Skype sessions with the staff and students. She found the Katcham School online through the U.K.-based charity United World Schools. It opened two years ago in the Lumphat district of Ratanakiri and is thriving, with an enrolment of more than 150 students. Smith said because she and her family have travelled exten-

Flavelle proposal meeting Tuesday Another chance to check out ideas for PM waterfront

The Mill and Timber site, long known as Flavelle, on Port Moody’s waterfront could be in for big changes if the owners go ahead with proposals for a mixed-use development.

MORE WORK ON POCO’S BURNS ROAD Nearly a quarter of a million dollars more will be spent to upgrade a bumpy road in Port Coquitlam this summer. On Monday, the city’s finance committee expanded the Burns Road project by $244,000 to pave the 110 m section at the south end as well as install a retaining wall, widen the road and build a 1.2 metre-wide walkway. The funding will come from the city’s road and drainage reserve. The road, from Prairie Avenue to close to Dominion Avenue, has already undergone significant upgrades this spring at a cost of $1.2 million. The entire project is due to wrap up this fall, staff say.

portunity for the site.” According to Brook Pooni’s public consultation timeline, meetings with neighbourhood groups will be held this summer as well as design workshops and a second open house. A final concept plan should be available for a third open house in the fall. The Mill and Timber site is identified as a special study area in Port Moody’s official community plan, meaning

development proposals must come with a comprehensive local area plan.

MEETING DETAILS

• The Flavelle Oceanfront open house is on Tuesday, June 23 from 4 to 7 p.m. at the Old Mill Boathouse (2715 Esplanade St., PoMo). Visit www.flavelleoceanfront.ca for more information. spayne@tricitynews.com @spayneTC

Port Moody residents looking for more information about the proposed redevelopment of the Mill and Timber site next to Rocky Point park can attend an open house next week. Owners of the 110-year-old former Flavelle sawmill announced last month plans to transform the 34-acre waterfront site into a mixeduse community. Some of the key features anticipated in the new development are re-established connections to the water’s edge, a range of employment opportunities, a boardwalk, park space and extensions to the Shoreline Trail, and preservation of historical sawmill elements. At the June 23 open house on the proposal, slated to be the first of a series, urban planning consultants Brook Pooni aim to share some of the feedback they’ve heard so far and to gather more ideas from the public. Representatives will be on hand to answer questions as well. “We’ll be introducing the project overall, giving some background about the site and its history… and also exploring some of the big ideas and opportunities we think the site has,” said Blaire Chisholm, Brook Pooni’s vice-president. Some of the ideas collected so far came at a kiosk at the Port Moody farmer’s market in late April; Chisholm said about 70 people stopped by and most filled out the survey. “A lot of what people were saying is they want to see a public market there,” Chisholm said. “The idea of a Granville Island came up a lot, and that would be a really amazing op-

Stiffer fines, sanctions for distracted drivers? BLACK PRESS

The province is considering stiffer fines and possibly vehicle impoundments or prohibitions to get distracted drivers to put down their cellphones and devices. Motorists caught using a hand-held device face $167 fines and — since last fall — three driver penalty points. “We took a first step and increased the penalties last fall and now we’re looking at possible changes to the legislation, including more severe penalties,” Justice Minister Suzanne Anton said. A four-week online consultation period is open until July 16 to gather public opinion on whether tougher measures are needed. Comments are being collected at engage.gov.bc.ca/ distracteddriving. Besides potential vehicle impoundments or driver prohibitions, the site asks if texting drivers should be pun-

Police issued 55,100 tickets last year to drivers caught using an electronic device behind the wheel — an increase from 53,000 in 2013. ICBC estimates 9,500 drivers in B.C. are using a handheld device at any given time and 40 per cent are texting or emailing as they drive. The B.C. Association of Chiefs of Police supports escalating fines or sanctions, particularly for multiple repeat offenders, said Transit Police

Speed and distraction are now the top two factors contributing to crash deaths, ahead of third-ranked alcohol. B.C.’s distracted driving fines are the second lowest in Canada. Nova Scotia has the highest, climbing from $234 to $579 on the third offence, and Ontario is about to double its maximum fine from $500 to $1,000. Saskatchewan impounds the vehicle for seven days if the driver has had two or more distracted driving tickets within the last year. Dubord said police are also concerned about the increasing use of in-dash video screens that allow the passenger, and often also the driver, to watch movies. He said officers are also wary of other new and distracting technology, from Google Glass to the Apple Watch.

Widespread violations make impounding ‘difficult’

Chief Neil Dubord who chairs the chiefs’ traffic committee. But he said the widespread disregard for the cellphone law makes it difficult to see how officers could impound vehicles — at least on a first offence — without being accused of selective, unfair enforcement. “The impoundment of vehicles is difficult because of the large numbers,” said Dubord, who is taking over as chief of Delta Police later this month. “When people are speeding at double the limit speed limit a threshold is broken which can then lead to the impounding of the vehicle.” He said he believes prohibitions should be considered, but only for the worst repeat offenders. The chiefs’ association doesn’t have a formal position on prohibitions, nor has it adopted the stance that texting is worse than hand-held phone calls. According to research cited by the province, texting or using a smartphone while driving is more distracting than talking on one, resulting in up to 23 times higher crash risk for drivers who text.

TRANSLINK REPORT

Cost recovery ratio up 2.2% for 2014 continued from front page

Because fare revenue has trailed TransLink’s targets, and other transit expenses rose — due to factors ranging from negotiated union wage increases to the addition of more SkyTrain staff after major shutdowns — the overall cost recovery ratio for the system dropped to 53.4%, from 55.6% in 2013. Overall revenue was up about $10 million to more than $1.45 billion, while expenses were up $20 million to $1.43 billion, leaving a $27 million surplus. TransLink took in $8.2 million more in property tax because it’s entitled to collect 3% more each year under its governing legislation without seeking approval of area mayors. Other increases included an extra $3.4 million from the 21% tax TransLink gets on pay parking, Another $1.2 million in additional transit revenue came from sources such as advertising and renting out retail space. The number of drivers who took the tolled Golden Ears Bridge rose 6.2% in 2014 and toll revenue climbed by $2.2 million to $41.6 million. “More vehicles crossed the Golden Ears Bridge than projected due in part to the end of the introductory toll discounts

on the Port Mann Bridge.” TransLink took in $9 million less in fuel tax, which is projected to be a “flat revenue source in the future.” The 2.6% decline to $340 million was mainly due to a 19% plunge in diesel sold within Metro Vancouver. Gasoline sales were actually up 5.2%, an increase thought to be due to moderating gas prices and fewer crossborder shopping trips into the U.S. because of the weaker Canadian dollar. The total amount of transit service provided was roughly unchanged, although TransLink continues to “optimize” bus routes by shifting service hours from under used routes to ones where there’s heavy demand and pass-ups. Communications vicepresident Colleen Brennan said bus ridership is up significantly South of the Fraser. “We believe it’s because of the investment in transit that’s been made in those areas,” she said, citing a 13% lift in service hours South of the Fraser in recent years. It was the first full year of operation for the King George B-Line, an express bus route from Newton to Surrey City Centre. Transit Police expenses rose 12.2% to $34.3 million last year, mainly due to the signing of a new labour contract providing

Executives’ pay was down 5% at TransLink in ’14 5 execs’ bonuses were eliminated last year JEFF NAGEL BLACK PRESS

Most TransLink senior executives took an overall pay cut in 2014 due to an earlier decision to eliminate their bonuses. TransLink said overall compensation for its six top executives was down 5.2% to $2.08 million. Five of six executives saw bonuses eliminated last year, cutting their pay by amounts ranging from $12,000 for strategic planning executive vice-president Bob Paddon (he was paid $299,192) to nearly $30,000 in the case of chief financial officer Cathy McLay, who collected $354,460. The exception was former CEO Ian Jarvis, who was replaced but kept on the payroll during the transit tax referendum earlier this year. Jarvis actually saw his 2014 total compensation rise $15,610 or 3.3% to $483,625. That increase was because of the ongoing payout of a

separate long-term bonus program that rewards his performance from 2010-2012. The bonus payment was $43,400 and was the second of three instalments. The final payment was made recently and will be disclosed in Jarvis’s 2015 compensation next year. Jarvis also received a short-term bonus of more than $54,000 earned in 2013. The base salaries of all executives remain frozen at 2013 levels. TransLink also eliminated its chief operating officer position last year, redesignating former COO Doug Kelsey as president and general manager of the SkyTrain subsidiary. Had the extra position been kept on, executive compensation last year would have been $350,000 higher, according to TransLink officials. Included in the total compensation are “perquisite allowances” of $1,200 a month for the CEO, $950 a month for the other executives, plus a further wellness allowance of $2,500 a year for the CEO. Executive compensation makes up about 0.1% of total TransLink spending. jnagel@blackpress.ca @jeffnagel

pay increases retroactive to 2011. While overall spending at TransLink was up — including capital costs like the purchase of a new SeaBus — Brennan said operational savings and efficiencies have been made worth $100 million. Jordan Bateman of the Canadian Taxpayers Federation challenged the claim. “Just because you’ve held spending to the rate of inflation doesn’t mean you’ve saved taxpayers anything,” he said. jnagel@blackpress.ca @jeffnagel

Scotiabank Fremont Village Port Coquitlam swung in $6,000 to the SD43 charity golf tournament this month. A total of $26,000 was netted at the event for KidSport. Pictured from left to right are: Patti Wright, Margolyn Clements, Karly Bonneteau, Deanna Danyluk, Diane MacPherson, Chad Dux (branch manager), Coquitlam Coun. Chris Wilson (executive director of KidSport Tri-Cities), Dean Whitson, Sharon McKay and Jeff Stromgren. Social Justice 12 students at Coquitlam’s Dr. Charles Best secondary took their passion and concerns to the Vancouver Art Gallery last weekend with a focus on promoting transgender rights. This year, they elected to petition the provincial government to amend the BC Human Rights Code to include language that guarantees transgendered people access to human rights legislation. While at the VAG, the Social Justice class collected about 1,000 signatures for the petition that they hope will be presented in the next legislature session by Coquitlam-Maillardville NDP MLA Selina Robinson, who joined the students at VAG along with MLA Spencer Chandra, Dr. Charles Best teacher Ken Ipe and Morgane Oger, chair of the Vancouver Trans Alliance Society.

Services Society (REACH OUT PRO); Children of the Street Society (Taking Care of Others or TCO2); Riverside secondary (Multicultural Leadership Storytelling Festival); Communities Embracing Restorative Action Society (youth justice); Stroke Recovery Association of BC (The Singing Project); and the Wilson Centre Seniors Advisory Association Board (seniors well-being). “The PoCo Foundation is pleased

to be supporting innovative programs that address the growing challenges of mobility and access for all community members,” Davies said in a news release. Meanwhile, Biljana “Billy” McLaughlin and Greg Lunde won the 2014 scholarships from the PoCo Lacrosse Association Advised Fund.

Little ones with Coquitlam’s Childgarden Preschool joined city crews last week for a litter pick-up day at Mundy Park. The fouryear-old students along with teachers and parents used tongs, gloves and bags to pick up trash around the popular greenspace, which they dub the Magic Forest. Their field trip ended with a demo of the Wastech organic waste truck (at right). The preschoolers have been active in their environmental efforts, writing letters to city hall to call for more anti-litter signs.

PM FOUNDATION

A $1,500 donation from the Port Moody Foundation went into the hands of the Children of the Street Society this month. The grant to the Coquitlam-based charity, which was founded by former SD43 trustee Diane Sowden, was one of several awarded June 10 at the foundation’s annual general meeting. The money will be used

to help the society’s schoolbased prevention workshops in PoMo for the next academic year. The workshops give children and youth the information and practical tools they need to learn how to be save from sexual exploitation. In the last school year, the society presented 13 workshops for 610 kids in PoMo, said fundraising manager and spokesperson Maura Fitzpatrick.

VOLUNTEERING

You can trade past volunteer hours for experiences JANIS WARREN

The Tri-CiTy News

Want a tour of Google Canada’s Toronto office with its managing director? How about a webinar chat with Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield? Or an exclusive visit with Port Coquitlam Mayor Greg Moore at city hall? You can have any of these experiences and they won’t cost you a penny — but they will require you to roll up your sleeves for charity. The program is called Time Auction and it’s a platform to allow people to swap their past volunteer hours to meet with top innovators. Co-founded by David Wen,

POCO MAYOR GREG MOORE Time Auction is a social venture that started last year out of the Sauder School of Business at the University of BC. Previous auctions have included a Canucks game with the team’s COO, Victor de Bonis, a cooking lesson with chef David Hawksworth and a visit with Olympic rowing gold medalist Ben Rutledge. Currently, Time Auction is offering webinars with Frank O’Dea (co-founder of Second

Cup coffee), Almas Jiwani (United Nations) and Brett Wilson (Dragon’s Den) as well as a personal tour with Moore at PoCo city hall on June 30. For Moore’s auction, which closes today (Friday), two winners will shadow Moore and go out for lunch. Wen said his company approached Moore as it wanted to add a political punch to its auction menu. “Greg agreed right away and we’re really happy to have him.” Said Moore, “It seems like an excellent idea to help reward and provide a unique opportunity.” Wen got the idea for Time Auction while he was a commerce student at Queen’s University. There, because of his numerous hours volunteering with math studies and helping to fundraise, he won a scholarship to spend time with Ron Joyce, the founder of Tim Horton’s.

“I couldn’t have bought this experience. I had to earn it through volunteering.” With that in mind, he formed Time Auction to get bidders use their past volunteer hours as currency. Once bidders log in and send in their details, Time Auction verifies those past hours and the winners are tapped. Wen said the concept appeals largely to young professionals looking to get a leg up in their industry to network and to build their resumes. In the future, Wen said he hopes Time Auction will evolve to become profitable. So far, Time Auction has “collected” more than 13,000 volunteer hours for non-profit groups in Canada, the U.S. and Hong Kong. • To bid on Port Coquitlam Mayor Greg Moore’s offer, visit timeauction.org. jwarren@tricitynews.com @jwarrenTC

THE ENVIRONMENT

A guide to the making of nature guide GREEN SCENE

ELAINE GOLDS

o you have a favourite local park? Is there a green space you frequently visit for a stroll? We are fortunate in the TriCities to have so many local parks to provide us with pleasant places to stretch our legs and unwind from the stresses of life. These parks also provide vital habitat for the many other species with whom we share this area. The Discover Nature in the Tri-Cities booklet for children recently produced by the Burke Mountain Naturalists (available for download at www.bmn.bc.ca) highlights eight of these parks and attempts to explain the benefit each of them offers our local flora and fauna. The booklet, prepared mainly by a team of BMN volunteers, is dedicated to the memory of Danny Grass, the only child of longtime BMN members, Jude and Al Grass, who sadly passed away during heart surgery. Al Grass, a naturalist who worked for BC Parks for many years, was the author of many BC Parks nature guides. While the provincial government has ceased to publish these guides, families that camped with young children in the 1990s may remember these delightful brochures that gently introduced people to some of the inhabitants of provincial parks. It was their wonderfully whimsical but informative style that we hoped to re-create in our guide to local parks. Members of our team chose one or two of their favourite natural areas to write about. While it was a challenge to select only eight parks, we needed to limit the number to keep the booklet to an appropriate size. The places we selected are Belcarra and Colony Farm regional parks, Como Lake Park, Mundy Park plus trails along Hyde Creek, the Coquitlam River and DeBoville Slough. We believe these sites provided opportunities to explore a variety of habitats on trails there are mostly level and accessible for young families with strollers. The booklet has four pages dedicated to each park, with a small trail map plus drawings of the plants and animals that may be encountered during visits. But we did not want to produce a guide that simply named the plants and animals likely to be observed in each park. Instead, we chose to

introduce some ecological concepts. Thus, the chapter on Belcarra Regional Park explains the concept of shoreline zonation while the chapter on Colony Farm provides an overview of nesting strategies used by birds. We also tried to hint at some of our area’s fascinating history by, for example, mentioning the gravel extraction that formerly happened right in the Coquitlam River, the sawmills once found at the head of Burrard Inlet in Port Moody and the importance of Belcarra beach to the TsleilWaututh First Nation. With the help of artist Chris Tunnoch, we have also provided drawings of about 45 of the most common bird species plus other animals likely to be encountered in our parks, along with about two dozen native plant species, which are illustrated by their characteristic leaf shape, blossom and fruit. While we attempted to indicate the species most likely to be observed at each park, there is, of course, considerable overlap. Thus, the cedar waxwings illustrated in the chapter for DeBoville Slough are just as likely to be seen at Colony Farm Regional Park. The killdeer shown in the Colony Farm chapter are also likely to be observed at Port

DISCOVER NATURE FEEDBACK, PLEASE Burke Mountain Naturalists would appreciate getting feedback from people who use the guide to explore local areas. Feedback, as well as requests for copies of the guide (depending on supply and volunteer availability for hand delivery), can be directed to burkemtnnats@gmail.com. Moody’s Shoreline Park. And the black-capped chickadees illustrated for Hyde Creek, plus the robins and Steller’s jay shown for the Coquitlam River, are likely to be frequent visitors in most residential areas — they may even nest in your backyard. Thus, the booklet is designed to be not merely a chapter-by-chapter account of each park but to provide a more holistic overview of all our local wildlife. One of our biggest challenges in creating Discover Nature was keeping our descriptions concise and using language that could be readily understood. For this, we had the help of our editor, Dalyce Epp. As a result, we hope that our booklet will also be helpful for people learning English as a second language as well as for young readers. The booklet includes a glossary for some of the more uncommon terminology, such as preening, midden and redd. We have also thrown in a few fascinating facts. For in-

stance, did you know there is no such bird as a seagull? Or when and where gray squirrels were introduced into the Lower Mainland from eastern Canada? We are grateful for financial support from the Burke Mountain Naturalists and Wild Birds Unlimited that allowed us to obtain professional help to assist with production of the booklet. With a generous grant from TD Friends of the Environment Foundation, we have been able to print 1,500 copies, which we will distribute free of charge. Copies have been provided to local libraries so we hope our booklet will be on their shelves soon. We also want to ensure schools have copies as well as youth groups involved with nature appreciation. Elaine Golds is a Port Moody environmentalist who is conservation/education chair of the Burke Mountain Naturalists and member of the boards of the Colony Farm Park Association and the Port

Our food footprint: Eating smart – and softly LIVING GREEN

MELISSA CHAUN

hen I was growing up, it seemed pretty easy to eat healthily: Eat your veggies, an apple a day keeps the doctor away and an egg a day was OK. Attending a Climate Change Changes Me hosted talk by Earthsave Canada, however, revealed that the largest part of our ecological footprint (the amount of natural resources an individual, community, or country consumes in a given year) is what we eat: our “food footprint.” Having been given the inspiring cookbook Meatless Mondays a few years ago, I thought all I really needed to do was eat less meat. But there’s more to it. Humans are the only mammal that continues to drink milk after natural weaning. The dairy industry’s argument to drink milk for sufficient calcium is weak. Dark green, leafy vegetables, beans and peas provide sufficient amounts of calcium for our daily intake, and alternatives, such as almond, soy, oat and rice milk, are fortified with calcium.

Farm aminals are often subject to cruel practices, writes columnist Melissa Chaun. One summer, I was able to visit an organic dairy farm on Prince Edward Island. The technology being used was impressive but the realities were stark. Dairy cows are kept perpetually pregnant for three to seven years before they are sent to slaughter. Their young are weaned almost immediately, causing stress to both mother and calf. Male and unwanted female calves are chained and housed in large plastic doghouse-like igloos, unable to socialize with one another. The market demands their meat (veal) be soft, so no exercise allowed. Moreover, farmers save money by keeping the calves undernourished since slaughter is only a few months away. Each year, more than 10

billion cows, pigs and birds are killed in the U.S. alone for us to eat. Farmed animals are routinely subjected to practices so cruel, they would likely lead to criminal prosecution if our legislation were not so outdated and inadequate. The film Food, Inc. captures some of the horrific conditions and treatment inflicted on our pigs, chickens and cows. It shows us what genetics breeding and industrialized feed have done to these animals’ health, and how migrant workers suffer at the hands of these mega agro-industries. Here in the Lower Mainland, we are fortunate to have access to farmers’ markets, where we can get to know our food producers and learn from them directly how their farms operate.

Many are second- and thirdgeneration farmers and one can sense the strong family values that transfer over to their treatment of both land and animal. Rockweld Farms from Abbotsford, for example, is unique by being SPCA-certified, so when I asked Aaron what happens to their male chicks (having seen a documentary showing their gruesome slaughter as soon as their gender is identified), he was able to tell me how they raise them to be roasters or broilers. Organic, ethically-raised meat costs more than factory farm-produced but since it tastes so much better and is that much more satisfying due to

its higher quality, one actually needs less of it on the plate. Raising cows, pigs, turkeys, chickens and other animals for food contributes nearly one fifth (18%) of all global humaninduced greenhouse gas emissions. A veggie burger requires 93% fewer greenhouse gas emissions than its hamburger equivalent. And there is more. It requires an average of 6 kg of plant protein to produce 1 kg of animal protein. It takes 100 times more water to produce 1 kg of animal protein than it does 1 kg of plant protein. And on average, it takes 990 litres of water to produce one litre of milk. Even as California suffers record drought conditions, the state’s agro-animal industry continues to use 4.8 trillion — yes, trillion — gallons of water per year, representing 47% of the state’s water footprint (our water footprint will be the topic of next month’s column). Furthermore, the livestock sector is arguably the largest source of water pollution worldwide. A single dairy cow produces approximately 120 lb. of wet manure per day, equivalent to that of 20 to 40 humans.

EATING TIPS

As usual, I try to end my columns with some practical tips for us to seriously consider. In this case, there is a lot we can and need to do. My top four are:

• Eat less dairy. Incorporate a more vegan lifestyle, getting creative with dairy substitutes. (I finally discovered an amazing ice-cream substitute, Oregon’s organic Coconut Bliss.) • Eat less meat. Peas, beans, lentils and nuts are efficient sources of protein. Experiment with different, non-GMOsoybean-based foods like tempeh and edamame (soybeans), and our own Fraser Valley-grown hazelnuts. The Metro Vancouver Veg Directory provides plant-based options (earthsavecanada.wildapricot. org/vegdirectory). • Embrace rabbit food. ’Tis the season for salad. Eat “water foods” packed with vitamins and minerals — leafy greens of all colours and textures — and locally grown fruits and vegetables. • Support your local farmers’ markets. If you still wish to eat some meat, eat “happy” meat and eggs from your local market — from animals that have been ethically raised — and make our B.C. farmers happy, too. Melissa Chaun of Port Moody is an ecologist with a passion for all things sustainable. She began her environmental career in the U.S. and has a certificate in Sustainable Community Development. She volunteers on various city committees and is currently co-ordinating the monthly meetings for Tri-City Greendrinks. Her column runs monthly.

A variety of clubs at Fox Summer reading clubs for whole family in PoCo

This year’s Summer Reading Club theme at Fraser Valley Regional Library is Build It! and you’ll find plenty of opportunities to build your imagination over the holidays. The clubs are free to join at FVRL’s local outlet, Terry Fox Library in Port Coquitlam, and readers of all ages can win

prizes — they can even make reading a family affair this summer. Preschoolers and schoolage kids can build great reading habits by enjoying their favourite books and finding new ones when they join the Read-to-Me Club or the Kids Summer Reading Club. Participants get a reading record, a special bookmark, weekly stickers and chances to win fun prizes. And kids who complete their reading records get a medal.

Youths in Grades 7 to 12 can build their reading repertoire when they join the Teen Summer Reading Club. For every seven days of reading, members get an entry in the draws for many prizes, including iPad Minis and $100 Chapters gift cards. Youths can also participate in the #FVRLbookface contest on Instagram; check out www. instagram.com/readlearnplay for more details. Adults can build their own reading to new heights by

joining FVRL’s Adult Summer Reading Club. Adults receive a reading record to track their own reading and every week of reading offers more chances to win prizes. FVRL hosts free programs and contests all summer. For more Summer Reading Club information, visit www.fvrl.ca or Terry Fox Library.

“By accessing world markets for Canadian oil, we’ll enjoy increased tax dollars and years of employment.” - Deborah Cahill, President, Electrical Contractors Association of B.C.

Coastal access for Canadian oil means an increase of at least $5 per barrel. By getting full value for our oil, everyone will benefit. Workers will gain from the $5.4 billion project. Oil producers will earn more revenue for their product. And Government will collect more tax revenue from oil producers to spend on programs such as health care, education and other services that benefit all British Columbians. Plus, we can invest in new training programs and create new jobs for our youth.

Densification in Vancouver: M

Some (Land) Assembly Required

etro Vancouver is growing... we’re expecting an additional million people to move here over the next 25 years. To prepare, the region’s municipalities are adding density. Neighbourhoods that have traditionally been zoned for singlefamily detached homes are being transformed into communities with condominiums and townhouses. It’s a trend that has visions of dollar signs dancing in some homeowners’ eyes. Many neighbours are banding together to sell their properties as land assembled lots. While this is happening throughout the region, it is especially apparent along several major arteries in Vancouver including Cambie, Oak, Granville and 41st where the for-sale signs are lining up, row upon row. The assumption is that when owners sell together, they will receive a higher price for the assembled land than they would individually. But how realistic is it to think that the value of your home could double or even triple because of potential redevelopment?

Seeking Unsuspecting Buyers

“The City has an overall plan that will allow some single-family lots to be redeveloped as apartments,” says local architect and planner Michael Geller. “In some cases, developers tried to quietly assemble these sites themselves. Residents thought they might get better deals if they worked together.

“Now we have a situation where lots are being assembled, but the city plan isn’t to rezone all of them. It’s startling to me to see rows of Realtor signs in locations I know the City has no plans to rezone now or in the immediate future. Realtors are hoping to find unsuspecting buyers who think it is logical for these places to be redeveloped.”

realistic about what you’ll be able to achieve.”

Not Just the Suburbs

Further East

While Vancouver’s West Side is the area where most land assembly real estate speculation is taking place, there are pockets in East Vancouver too. The Norquay Village community is an 18unit townhouse complex that will replace torn-down detached homes. Further down Slocan Street, another four properties have been assembled. Jackson Ng is the agent who helped put together the latter deal. “The first four lots are zoned for an apartment building,” he said. “The buyers purchased the first house four or five years ago and held onto it as an investment property. I listed the three homes next to it as part of a land assembly. The owners received offers substantially over their assessed value because they worked together.”

Tricky Negotiations

Ng cautions that land assemblies do not come together overnight. The number of stakeholders makes negotiations

significantly more difficult than a single transaction. Each owner needs to find a new home to go to, which Ng describes as the hardest part of the transaction. “It definitely requires teamwork,” he advised. “You need an agent who is working for you – not the buyers. Some Realtors are over-promising and underdelivering in order to get your business. My advice is to work with someone who’s

Densification is also happening at a fast pace in the city’s downtown core. In the Hornby Slopes neighbourhood, Grosvenor Americas is taking a rezoning proposal to the city for parcels of land at Hornby and Pacific. The site includes the former Il Giardino restaurant and heritage Leslie House, which will be restored as a community amenity building. Michael Ward, senior vice-president and general manager, anticipates the redevelopment will eventually see a residential tower between 30 to 40 storeys plus a handful of townhouses. “There’s a renewed sense of interest in Hornby Slopes,” said Ward. “[But] there are a lot of unknowns around construction and marketing costs and there’s also uncertainty about density when you have to rezone a property. The profits are commensurate with the risks but probably far less than people think.” Regarding land assemblies, Ward notes they have been happening “forever” and warns that homeowners are taking the chance that the City will “upzone” the properties. “Speculation is not a great way to run a development business,” he said. “Those can be dangerous games to play.”

13-game win streak for Coq. Jr. Adanacs Drubbing against Timbermen move A’s up standings GARY MCKENNA

The Tri-CiTy News

The Coquitlam Jr. Adanacs extended their win-streak to 13 games, taking down the New Westminster Salmonbellies at the Queen’s Park Arena Tuesday night.

New West drew first blood with a goal from Nathan Stewart, but the A’s quickly tied the game and took the lead, which the maintained for the duration of the match. A five-goal run in the the second period put some distance between Coquitlam and the Salmonbellies on the scoreboard, but three quick ones, including two on the power play late in the final frame, closed the gap. Michael Messenger scored

two goals and two assists for a four-point night, while JeanLuc Chetner had three points with two goals and one assist. Things got chippy in the third period when Coquitlam’s Keegan Rittinger was ejected for fighting. Kai McDonald was also penalized, while New West’s Jordan McKenzie and DJ Saari were both kicked out of the game for jumping into the fray. see SAINTS, page 36
