Arrest in murders of two in Coquitlam Local woman & Israeli visitor were found dead SARAH PAYNE
The Tri-CiTy News
A 54-year-old Richmond man is facing two counts of first-degree murder in connection with a double homicide last week on Westwood Plateau in Coquitlam. Police were called to a home on Alpine Lane on the afternoon of July 16, where they found the body of a 56-year-old Coquitlam woman as well as that of an Israeli man who had arrived in Canada just two days earlier. Maurio Saheli, also known as Mo, was charged in the killings, the first this year in the Tri-Cities. Police said they believe he had a previous relationship with the
deceased woman. The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) has not stated who lived in the home or how the woman and the Israeli man knew each other. A woman delivering The Tri-City News to the home last week said she passed a man in the driveway talking on his phone before dropping the paper at the front door, which was wide open. It wasn’t until later that she realized the man had discovered the bodies and was calling 911. “He was really upset, desperate,” said Ludmila, who asked that her last name not be used. She was delivering papers on a nearby street a short time later when police officers, with their guns drawn, told her to leave the area because it wasn’t safe. see ACCUSED MAN, page A8
Engineer Wes Tse isn’t many years out of Coquitlam’s Dr. Charles Best secondary school but he already boasts some special expertise working in places after they’ve been hit by a disaster: please see article on page A3

When Coquitlam’s Wes Tse (right) arrived in Nepal after the devastating earthquake, the Dr. Charles Best secondary school graduate and engineer found houses crumbled and schools destroyed. Working with local residents and other volunteers with the Christian relief organization Samaritan’s Purse, as well as NGOs and other agencies, he helped get construction moving on safer structures.

After disaster, Coquitlam engineer does his part to build safe places Charles Best grad Wes Tse recounts his work in Nepal DIANE STRANDBERG Tri-CiTy News
T
hirteen hours after a magnitude 7.8 earthquake struck Nepal, engineer Wes Tse, woke up to find his email inbox crammed with messages. “A disaster has happened, it’s probably pretty serious, let us know your availability,” the messages read. Another young man just seven years out of high school might have rolled over and gone back to sleep but Tse, an engineer, was quickly on his feet and thinking of ways to get to the devastated country. This wasn’t the first time Tse had been called to assist in natural disaster or humanitarian crisis. The Coquitlam resident has already served in Sierra Leone, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and the Philippines volunteering for either Samaritan’s Purse, a Christian relief organization, or Engineers Mission International, a group that provides sustainable safe water and sanitation solutions for people in developing
FAST FACTS • Local engineer Wes Tse, a Coquitlam resident and graduate of Dr. Charles Best secondary school (class of 2008), participated in relief efforts for the April 25 earthquake that shook Nepal, collapsed buildings, including 70,000 houses, and killed thousands. An estimated 2.8 million people have been displaced. • His job was to project manage the construction for 2,500 homes in the villages of northeast Nepal, a 10-hour drive from Kathmandu. • Funds are still needed to continue the work of building temporary homes and providing clean water supplies,hygiene and cooking kits for the Nepalese before winter sets in. • More information about the work can be found at www. samaritanspurse.ca. countries. With this kind of background, plus his paid work as a project manager, Tse is sought after for his training and expertise. “I can work inside difficult areas,” he told The Tri-City News about a week after returning from Nepal. For Tse, being able to assist others in a crisis and to help them build their own capacity to rebuild after a disaster is a great way to spend his “vacation.” Thus, less than a month after the quake, he was landing in Kathmandu to help Samaritan’s Purse with relief efforts.
“There are much smarter people out there and people who are much more qualified,” Tse says, “but it’s being able to go there and say, ‘This is broken, this is how you fix it.’” His initial work involved handing out tarps, blankets, hygiene and cooking kits to Nepalese people who lost everything in the quake, including their homes. But Tse had an even more challenging job ahead, one that took him over hundreds of kilometres of poorly-built windy roads, some washed out by heavy rains. His team’s destination was Charikot in Dolkha district, a small town

Wes Tse spent almost a month living with the people of Nepal affected by the devastating 7.8-magnitude earthquake. in a mountainous region of Nepal’s northeast where people are hard to reach and among the most vulnerable. After getting set up (a tent inside a heavily damaged school was home, at least for the first night), Tse’s job was to assess the housing situation and make arrangements to build 2,500 temporary homes for those hardest hit by the quake. “In our district, 95% of houses are irreparable,” he says. “That’s basically because it’s poor, it’s more rural and they don’t have any construction practices.” While his heart went out to
the families who were devastated by the quake, Tse was also impressed with the work ethic of the Nepalese, like the sherpas of Everest fame, who could walk miles carrying a heavy load, and yet always managed to smile at the end of a long day. “One of the post cards you’d see is a porter with a heavy pack walking up a mountain — pretty much everybody does that,” Tse said. “It’s not something I can do. They’re pretty inspirational.” His job turned out to be a logistical challenge but that’s not unusual when working in a developing country, accord-

ing to Tse. Relief organizations such as Samaritan’s Purse typically have to deal with a variety of local business people and authorities, international go-betweens, funders, governments and NGOs to get anything done. But the most important task of Tse’s nearly month-long visit was to make sure the temporary houses got built for those who needed them most. Locals were hired and trained to do the construction, and arrangements were made to get materials, such as steel pipes and corrugated galvanized tin sheets. Unfortunately, with monsoon season underway, the roads started to become impassable and Tse had to head back to Coquitlam before the first house was built. Now, he fears donor fatigue will dry up funds before Nepal’s rebuilding efforts are complete. “That’s the scariest thought right now, as the media wanes and the coverage and the attention goes away, so does the money.” Still, he knows the groundwork has been laid, the materials have been purchased and plans are in the works to build safer homes in Nepal for the future. dstrandberg@tricitynews.com @dstrandbergTC

ANgliNg bANNed oN mosT sTreAms Low water levels and warming temperatures have prompted the province to ban angling in most streams and smaller rivers across the South Coast region. The unusual conditions make fish vulnerable and the closures are required to pro-
tect stocks, according to provincial government officials. The closures cover all of the wildlife management units south of Toba Inlet, including the Lower Mainland, with the exception of unit 2-1, which is Manning Park east of the Skagit River.
The move comes after last week’s declaration of Level 4 drought conditions in southwestern B.C. Exempted rivers as well as key angling streams are being monitored by fisheries biologists and could be closed as well, if necessary.

FIRE SAFETY & WEATHER
Backyard bonfire a bad move, says Sasamat VFD Firefighters found bonfire in Anmore backyard SARAH PAYNE
The Tri-CiTy News
Members of the Sasamat Volunteer Fire Department were shaking their heads in disbelief Tuesday night after being called to an Anmore home where the residents were enjoying a bonfire — in a backyard that backs on to Belcarra Regional Park. The people at the home claimed to not be aware of the fire ban and were not impressed when firefighters asked them to put out the bonfire, said SVFD Chief Jay Sharpe. “They thought the fire ban was only for public land, so we explained to them that fires don’t differentiate between public and private land when they get out of control,” Sharpe said. “So we asked them to put it out right away before we put it out for them.” Campfires are permitted in Anmore but only with a permit obtained from the village hall; when a fire ban is in place, those with permits are contacted and told they are no longer valid. Sharpe said the residents burning Tuesday evening had an expired permit. The home backs on to the back side of Belcarra Regional Park, making the situation particularly dangerous and frustrating, Sharpe said. “The good thing is at least it was in a proper fire pit, and in an area of the yard where it was set up to have a camp-
fire — but that was the only good thing,” said Sharpe. “The fact they had a campfire and claimed to not know there was a fire ban, to me that was kind of incredulous that anybody would say that.” It’s not the first time the volunteer fire department has had to act since the warm weather set in. Sharpe said firefighters have been called as recently as a month ago to Pinnacle Ridge, an area where young people like to set up fires and enjoy the outstanding views. “They have a fire in the bush because they think nobody can see it but you can actually see it for miles,” Sharpe said, noting the Anmore fire Tuesday was also visible from Port Moody. No fines were issued to the group because they did put out the fire but Sharpe said the SVFD can charge more than $1,000 for a service call and levy a municipal ticket of $173. A post on the SVFD’s Facebook page notes that there have been more than 1,200 forest fires reported since April 1 in B.C., more than double the number in the same period last year, with three of them — all caused by people — in Anmore. Additional information from the SVFD includes: • On average, about 40% of forest fires are caused by people. • Anyone who damages Crown forest or grassland through arson or recklessness can be fined up to $1 million or be sentenced to three years in prison. • If a contravention of the Wildfire Act causes or contributes to a wildfire, the person
responsible may be ordered to pay all of the firefighting and associated costs. • Failure to abide by the Wildfire Act, including open burning restrictions (such as Metro Vancouver currently has), may result in a $345 fine, an administrative penalty of $10,000 or, if convicted in court, a fine of up to $100,000 and/or one year in jail. spayne@tricitynews.com @spayneTC

B.C. CRIME
Probe reveals B.C. child porn trading RCMP uncover 1,200 porn cases – mostly in Surrey JEFF NAGEL BLACK PRESS
RCMP say a six-month investigation last year uncovered 1,228 incidents of B.C. residents illegally sharing “troubling” child pornography — including photos and videos of child sexual abuse — using peer-to-peer networks. New crime rate data released today by Statistics Canada this week show child pornography cases reported by police more than quadrupled from 300 in 2013 to 1,271 in 2014. RCMP Insp. Ed Boettcher said the numbers don’t necessarily reflect a spike in actual activity but, rather, a better baseline estimate following the project by the B.C. Integrated Child Exploitation Unit. “It was certainly eye opening to me,” Boettcher said. “It more accurately reflects the scope of the issue.” Officers with the B.C. ICE unit had tracked internet addresses of B.C. computers trading in known illegal material
using online networks. It was the first broad sweep of its kind and revealed what Boettcher called a disturbing and tragic level of activity. “These are crimes against children, they’re serious and they result in life-long emotional scars,” he said. “The internet is forever.” The surge in activity uncovered was not matched by a major rise in culprits caught — a total of 107 accused pornographers were charged last year, up modestly from 2013. But Boettcher said more are expected as police continue their investigations. He said the probe has led to charges against 18 accused and two have already been convicted. Violators who hide behind a computer screen can expect to lose their anonymity when they’re caught, he said. “Our initial investigation provided us a rough location of where these offences were occurring. We are now pursuing these investigations,” Boettcher said. “For those that think they can engage in this type of criminal act and hide, you should know that we have the expertise to find you.” He also urged residents and business owners to monitor

CVSS will no longer be serving seniors SARAH PAYNE
The Tri-CiTy News
An organization that has been helping homebound TriCity seniors with grocery shopping, referrals and visits for nearly 20 years will be shutting its doors soon after struggling to maintain its funding. The programs offered by Community Volunteer Services for Seniors (CVSS) will be taken over by Share Family and Community Services on Sept. 1, after which
CVSS will cease operations. “Everybody has some concern. There’s a little bit of confusion and a little bit of sadness,� said Bruce Hansen, president of the Wilson Centre seniors’ advisory association in Port Coquitlam. “But I’m sure everything will work out; Share is an honourable organization.� In 2009, CVSS lost its annual $75,000 grant — 85% of its budget — from the Fraser Health Authority to deliver direct assistance to seniors. Since then, CVSS has struggled to cobble together grants, mainly from the United Way. But even that $50,000 in funding was lost last spring when the United Way decided it would no longer support 31 seniors’ outreach programs, Hansen said.

In a release issued Wednesday, IHIT media relations officer Sgt. Stephanie Ashton said three jurisdictions co-ordinated in their efforts to locate and arrest the suspect. “On behalf of the citizens served by the Coquitlam RCMP, I want to thank the IHIT investigators that have been working 24/7 since the tragic incident,� said Supt. Sean Maloney, Coquitlam RCMP’s officer in charge. “Supported by our people, IHIT is conducting a thorough investigation,
including the swift apprehension of Mr. Saheli. “There is a long way to go in this file and our people will continue to work with IHIT to move the investigation forward,� he said, “but today’s news goes a long way to restoring a sense of safety and security to the neighbourhood surrounding the scene of the crime as well as the community at large.� Saheli remains in custody and is due to appear in court again on Aug. 12.

You can comment on any story you read at www.tricitynews.com equipped to deliver the services CVSS had been. Both Hansen and Roxanne MacDonald of Share said their top priority is ensuring the seniors are looked after. “[We] are both committed to making this a smooth transition so there is no break in service,� said MacDonald, Share’s director of programs and services. “That’s everybody’s goal — we want to make it easy for folks.�
who wish to continue receiving the services from Share are being asked to sign a form giving CVSS permission to share their information. Two part-time CVSS staff will also be laid off at the end of the summer. “We feel bad about that but they understand the situation. They’re two very dedicated people but it’s been a struggle and they recognize that,� Hansen said, noting as an organization, Share is well
cial support from the Better at Home program either,� Hansen said. CVSS served about 160 to 175 seniors annually with phone support, in-person visits and grocery shopping assistance. Each CVSS client has been sent a letter detailing the situation, with volunteers following up with phone calls. Seniors
At the time, the provincial government awarded $15 million in funding to support the Better at Home program, with the Tri-Cities’ lead community services organization — that being Share — receiving $100,000. “Unfortunately, it did not cover everything that was expected‌ in the way of services and we were left with no finan-

OUR OPINION
Gun problems even in ’burbs
T
here are two kinds of gun owners but we rarely hear about the good ones — those who fill out the necessary paperwork and take a course, as required by the new Common Sense Firearms Licensing Act, which received Royal Assent in June. Sadly, what we hear most about are those who are using weapons to deal out gang retaliation, as in Surrey, or, more tragically, to kill innocents, as in the death of a Vancouver city worker in Burnaby or that of a Surrey realtor and father of two who tried to stop a break in. Recently in the Tri-Cities, a gun was used to rob Burke Mountain’s neighbourhood 7-Eleven. The suburbs appear to be rife with hand guns, if you follow the local news very closely, and any sane person would wonder why this is the case. There have been efforts to crack down on guns but unfortunately, more federal rules don’t seem to be making any difference.

ON THE ROAD
New drivers: In the following scenario, do you... D AS I SEE IT
ANDREW HOLOTA

istracted driving has the attention of the provincial government once again, with authorities pondering whether to ratchet up fines for texting and yakking motorists. They should also consider a “dysfunctional driving” category. A case in point: I’m merging onto a major road the other day and, as I’m waiting for a clear spot, the following scene unfolds: Passing by is a small car, transporting a mattress — no, not tied on top, but inside. The driver had fed the mattress into the rear hatch and rammed it through the interior of the vehicle until it nearly touched the windshield. He then wedged himself into the substantially reduced space remaining above the driver’s seat. Picture a relatively large man driving, forehead pushed down nearly to the steering wheel as he fought to keep his eyes up on the road while the mattress weighed down on his noggin. There are other words besides dysfunctional that could be used to label this genius.
TC
Sadly, he’s not alone in his tenacity and limited creativity in overcoming various driving challenges. From my column archives: One winter morning on my way to work, I had another occasion to view a most peculiar, if not mildly disconcerting sight. An oncoming motorist was dealing with a natural phenomenon not uncommon during west coast winters — namely, condensation on both the outside and inside of the windshield. (There are other such seasonal conditions found out here in Lotusland, known as ice and snow; however, they are increasingly rare, and therefore largely ignorable.) Anyway, as you might imagine, or perhaps know from first-hand experience, windshield condensation severely restricts the driver’s ability to see through the fogged glass. The effect is dramatically compounded when driving into a rising sun, as was this fellow. His windshield had been transformed into a blindingly bright, opaque rectangle — as if aliens landed on your hood. There are remedies for the situation, of course. Obviously, one is to use the defrosting feature found in
every vehicle prior to becoming mobile. This does take planning and time management, since it can require several minutes for the engine to warm the air being blown on the glass. The other solution is to wipe away the condensation, using the manufacturer-supplied wipers externally and a moisture-absorbent cloth or tissue on the inside. This is only a temporary remedy, since the windshield will rapidly re-fog until it warms up, but certainly better than nothing. But both courses of action were apparently too timeconsuming for this particular motorist. Instead, he was resolutely making his way along an eastbound course with his head out of the open driver’s window. Think of a dog enjoying a car ride, except his tongue wasn’t flapping in the breeze. I chose to pull over a lane, just in case he needed the one I was in when his eyes suddenly froze shut, or just plain froze. I’m not sure how we legislate against dysfunctional — or just plain dumb — driving. Maybe a basic IQ test for drivers... In the following scenario, do you: A? B? C? or F? ... for Fail?

WATER WOES
Grey water one answer The Editor, It is now about 20 years since I started installing a water recycling system in our former home in Burnaby. With the help of a plumber, a professor of biology from UBC and my construction skills, we installed a water-saving system over a two-year period. That system included several large plastic barrels to collect water, a few pumps to send water into high-level holding, re-piping of grey water from a tub, washing machine and some sinks, etc. Water was also collected off the roof. Excess grey water not used was dispersed in a underground drainage field. Water downhill from drainage field was tested and found good thanks to anaerobic bacteria doing their job underground. Grey water (washing machine waste water) was pumped to a high-level holding tank. From the tank, water was used to gravity feed toilet reservoir tanks for flushing. It was also used for washing cars: soap cycle water for washing,
DON’T WATER BALL FIELDS NOW
The Editor, As a frequent walker up the Coquitlam Crunch, I’ve noticed the ball fields up at Bramble Park are being watered on a very regular basis, perhaps even daily. This watering is unnecessary and, frankly, an insult to all of those who are trying to do their part in reducing their usage of water. The message we all hear on a daily basis is that there is no rain of any significance in sight, which is why the watering restrictions have now been elevated to stage 3. It’s ironic that this message has not made its way to the city of Coquitlam. Perhaps you could do us all a favour and take the lead in reducing your water usage rather than having others call you out on it. And for the record, you can still play your ball games on a dry field. David Whetham, Port Moody rinse cycle for rinsing. From spring through autumn, the bulk of the water was use for watering my 100-tree nursery, greenhouse, gardens and vegetable patch. The rest was diverted to drainage loop underground. In addition to this, I had a dry composting toilet that produced soil for trees with no water flushing required — not
a measure most people would try. There was also a urinal that flushed liquids only into the drainage loop that mixed with a much higher percentage of waste water and rain water. Depending on how much we recycled our water, or collected rain, we used between 5,000 to 10,000 litres of water per year — that same amount
wasn’t used form municipal service. The city of Burnaby ordered me to dismantle the system after I went public with the grey water system. I knew they would as it’s not in their list of permissible equipment in a home. With our climate changes becoming more troublesome every year, however, maybe its time for our government and private investors to go to town on this idea, make a plumbing code up for a grey water system and help keep water usage down in areas being affected by high consumption and droughts. I also used lots of smaller ways to conserve water. One is to get a plastic bin that fits into your sink. All the water you rinse off dishes, washing of hands, etc., can be collected and used to water outdoor plants. Please share this information with your readers before it rains again and everyone forgets about this important matter again. Stephen Mancinelli, Coquitlam

COQUITLAM
Plaza would cut into a lovely park The Editor, Re. “900 seats?� (Letters, The Tri-City News, July 10). Approximately 30% of Coquitlam’s Town Centre Park remains open and groomed parkland. The remaining area contains many useful sports fields and dedicated function areas. Most days, the area where the city’s planned “performance plaza� is to be built is heavily used by families, the elderly, walkers, fishers and others to picnic and simply enjoy free time. I have asked many people what they think of the proposed construction and they are on the whole not in favour of or didn’t even know what was being proposed. The wildlife that lives in and around the lake is also an issue. We have a wonderful opportunity to watch and introduce our children to mallards, wigeons, wood ducks, eagles, mergansers, cormorants and many other wild residents and visitors. If these are disturbed, particularly at
breeding time, they will likely go elsewhere, to our loss. Also, the area that will be cut into for the plaza will mean the destruction of a lovely hillside of trees. Another question to be considered is how attractive is the plaza going to be to gatherings of young people and even homeless individuals during darkness. Can we afford the necessary monitoring at night year round? The first figures on cost were $1 million to $2 million, then $2 million and now $2.7 million for a use of approximately five months per year. How much is it going to end up costing? Remember, we are in a recession. The issue here is not managing noise and late hours but the fundamental destruction of one of the most attractive areas of our City Centre. A beautiful and well-used green space is important to the centre of Coquitlam as it becomes more and more densely developed. Carol Anderson, Coquitlam

140,000 more people expected in the Tri-Cities
GARY MCKENNA
The Tri-CiTy New
Close to 140,000 new residents — more than currently live in Coquitlam — are expected to move to the TriCities by 2041, according to population projections from Metro Vancouver. Coquitlam will see a 73.4% jump, going from its 129,000 residents (2011 census) to a projected 224,000 in 2041 while Port Coquitlam will climb 47.8% from 57,500 to 85,000 people. Port Moody’s population is projected to increase 48.8%, from 33,600 to 50,000.
THE “HIGHEST RANKED COMPACT CAR IN INITIAL QUALITY” IN THE U.S.
That means more employment and new residential construction will be required in the area, numbers of which Metro Vancouver also project will increase over the next 25 years. For example, the most recent census data shows that Coquitlam currently has approximately 45,000 units of housing — apartments, townhouses or single-family detached homes. To accommodate the expected influx of new residents, Metro Vancouver projects the number of homes to rise 109% to 94,100 by 2041. PoCo’s number of dwelling units will increase 65% from 20,600 to 34,300 while Port Moody will see a 57.9% rise from the current 12,600 to 19,900. Jobs will also be necessary and Metro Vancouver projects an increase in the amount of

total employment. Projections show that in Coquitlam, a 100.8% jump in total employment is expected, rising from 46,800 to 94,000 jobs. PoCo’s job numbers are expected to climb at roughly the same pace as its population, with total employment increasing from 48.3% going from the current 23,600 to 35,000. Port Moody’s employment numbers are expected to see the largest gains in relation to population, increasing 102.2% from the current 8,900 to 18,000. The Metro Vancouver report notes the numbers are growth projections and not specific targets. The numbers are approximate and have been worked out with input from the individual municipalities. gmckenna@tricitynews.com @gmckennaTC

BURKE MOUNTAIN
A group of Burke Mountain men are behind a pair of summer events designed to get neighbours socializing and raising money for a good cause. The Burke Mountain Gentlemen’s Society has grown from a few Facebook posts to what members hope will soon be a registered nonprofit society, all hashed out over a few cold pints at their designated “clubhouse,” the Orrange restaurant in Port Coquitlam.
“The original meeting was eight guys and we just brainstormed what we wanted the community to become,” said member Mike Morris. The group has organized a community barbecue at Galloway Park tomorrow (Saturday), from 2 to 6 p.m., which will feature a DJ, a hamburger or hot dog meal from Orrange (tickets are $8/$5) and plenty of games and activities for kids, including a bouncy castle, face painting, coupons for free
Slurpees at 7-Eleven, a bocce tournament and basketball. And next month, the Gentlemen are hosting a charity golf tournament at Meadow Gardens Golf Club in Pitt Meadows. The Aug. 23 event has about 50 players signed up so far; the $120 fee comes with a round of golf (shotgun start) and buffet dinner, with proceeds benefitting BC Children’s Hospital.

Volunteers rolled out the welcome gravel this week for visitors to Port Coquitlam’s Hyde Creek Education Centre and Hatchery. The city’s volunteer Boots on the Ground team partnered with Hyde Creek Watershed Society to lay out the new walkway for the facility, located just off Coast Meridian Road on the Hyde Creek Trail. The society’s secretary/director, Jean Peachman, said the old rock was hard to navigate for guests with wheels — wheelchairs, scooters, strollers — or in dress shoes; the building is now universally accessible. “Thanks to the city volunteers for making this a terrific collaborative effort,” she said. The society’s next meeting is Aug. 5 at 7:15 p.m. at the hatchery, which is open for public tours on Saturdays from 9 to 11:30 a.m. For more information, visit hydecreek.org.

Water use down after Metro ban on watering Officials hope stage 3 rules will make supply last JEFF NAGEL BLACK PRESS
A drop in regional water use following the imposition of a complete lawn sprinkling ban has Metro Vancouver cautiously optimistic that even tougher water restrictions can be avoided. The regional district declared stage 3 water restrictions July 20, outlawing any home sprinkling, pool filling, pressure washing or outdoor car washing. Consumption had run between 1.31 and 1.48 billion litres of water per day prior to the stage 3 declaration, but water use dropped to 1.24 billion Tuesday and 1.19 billion Wednesday. That’s just under a new regional target of no more than 1.2 billion litres a day that officials estimate should stretch the water supply all the way to November, even if not another drop of rain falls until then. “We are seeing positive results with stage 3,” said Metro utilities committee chairman Darrell Mussatto. “Obviously cooler weather is our friend, rain is our best friend and people are making a difference.” Tougher water rules were imposed because the reservoirs have continued to decline significantly through July, reaching 69% capacity this week, much earlier than normal. The move to stage 3 came after Metro engineers retooled their estimates of how long the water could last if the extreme dry conditions persist for months. Original calculations were based on the driest year previously on record, which still had some rain in the summer. “We changed the model last weekend,” Mussatto said. “We said forget the driest year. Let’s pretend there’s no water between now and the end of October. What does that look like?” That scenario is estimated to be a one-in-750-years occurrence, Mussatto said, adding that’s how the 1.2 billion litre daily maximum was reached, as well as the decision stage 3 was required to reach it. Metro has approval from B.C. Hydro to buy up to 62 billion litres of water from the Coquitlam reservoir — more than usual at an additional cost of $862,000 — but Mussatto stressed that volume is already factored into Metro’s supply
MORE METERS? Hans Schreier, a soil science and watershed management professor at UBC, said a better approach than expensive water infrastructure mega-projects would be for Metro Vancouver cities to get serious about metering water in existing homes, not just new construction. “We have very poor water accounting,” he said, adding modern smart water meters can remotely alert officials to excessive use and fines can be issued electronically. European countries also charge three to seven times as much for water as residents here pay, he added. estimates, as is the water stored in high alpine lakes that will be transferred to the Seymour and Capilano reservoirs. The Coquitlam reservoir is a large water supply, but Metro’s ability to draw from it is currently limited by the height of its intake pipe. The region plans to build a deeper intake so it can draw more, gaining more capacity to serve population growth in future years, but Mussatto said that will be a multi-year construction project. Longer term, the region can raise the height of the Seymour dam, but it hopes it won’t have to embark on that very costly project for decades. The Coquitlam reservoir serves the eastern third of the region, including Surrey, Delta, much of Langley, Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows. B.C. Hydro has not been using it to generate power, conserving the Coquitlam source’s water for drinking and sufficient flows for fish survival. Mussatto said the regional board will likely try to coordinate a more standardized approach between local municipalities to punishing water wastrels. He said some cities give one letter of warning before fines, while others provide two and some go beyond fines to shutting off water when users defy water restrictions. That debate is expected in the fall. As for violations, he said most are out of ignorance, with only a few offenders outright defying the restrictions. jnagel@blackpress.ca @jeffnagel

New regs for flowers at PoCo cemetery Flowers to be OK on special days JANIS WARREN
The Tri-CiTy News
Mourners will soon be able to place flowers at the Port Coquitlam grave sites of their loved ones on Valentine’s and other special days. Next week, PoCo city council will look at updating its 2011 cemetery bylaw to allow floral displays and other decorations on Valentine’s Day,
COUN. MIKE FORREST Easter, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Thanksgiving and
PoCo ponders more meeting changes JANIS WARREN
The Tri-CiTy News
For the second time this year, Port Coquitlam is tinkering with how it conducts its business in, and with the, public. In January, as a result of “inappropriate behaviour” from one resident at council meetings, PoCo councillors voted to change the city’s policy to place open question period before it adjourned open meetings. That means all comments made during public input are now considered on the record. Next week, city council is expected to formally update its 11-year-old bylaw for council and committee procedures. And the revamped bylaw has some interesting additions, including: • allowing electronic participation for special meetings if an urgent decision is required during an emergency or summer break; • standardizing how and when meetings can be audio or video recorded by members of the public and media; • providing clarity around public petitions and how they are accepted; • and releasing results of votes at closed-door meetings. Port Moody city council has unveiled in-camera decisions, when appropriate, for a number of years but that hasn’t been the practice in PoCo and
Coquitlam. Other PoCo news:
ZONING CHANGES
A number of changes are being made to Port Coquitlam’s commercial and industrial zoning bylaw that may affect how businesses operate. Last week, after a public hearing, city council gave third reading to the bylaw amendments in anticipation of this fall’s review of the official community plan (OCP). The proposed changes include: • adding commercial indoor storage in the M3 (light industrial) zone; • requiring advanced technology industries, auctions, production studios and trade contractors to have an industrial component; • and removing the green roof regulation for large-format buildings. Meanwhile, city council, at its July 13 meeting, also gave third reading to OCP and zoning bylaw “housekeeping” changes that would see building heights for row homes and townhouses increased to 10.5 m, and to 15 m for RA1 zone apartments. As well, with the number of multi-housing units going up, the city wants to see interior ceiling heights in apartments rise to nine feet, said Laura Lee Richard, the city’s manager of director of development services. jwarren@tricitynews.com
Remembrance Day — plus the week following. The move is to make the city’s cemetery bylaw more flexible and to keep it in line with rules in other municipalities, such as Coquitlam, said Brian North, manager of revenue and collections. Coun. Mike Forest, chair of PoCo’s healthy community committee introduced the proposed changes at last Monday’s council meeting and said the revised bylaw would also allow mourners to place freshly cut and artificial flowers
and potted plants in the grave site vase all year. Wreaths, religious objects and flowers would also be permitted to be placed on the top of headstones, if the bylaw changes go through for Aug. 1. Meanwhile, while the cost of the plot fees will stay almost the same, service levies at the Oxford Road cemetery are due to rise about 10%. As well, all fees and charges will be boosted annually to keep pace with inflation, according to the document. North said contributions
that have been made to the city’s cemetery expansion fund will pay for a new columbarium (a structure that holds urns) to be installed this year. Other PoCo news:
ADVERTISING
Port Coquitlam city council is encouraging businesses to spend their money by advertising in city publications and on civic property. Mayor Greg Moore said the extra advertising revenue will be used to offset municipal property tax rates and user fees.
“It’s something that we have been working on,” he said at last Monday’s council meeting, noting the ads would ensure parks and recreation brochures are cost-neutral. Still, Coun. Darrell Penner said he doesn’t want to see the annual city calendar cluttered with business promotion. This year, Moore introduced three new advisory committees to find revenue opportunities and to streamline the budget. jwarren@tricitynews.com @jwarrenTC

FIRST ANNUAL ALL NATIONS FESTIVAL
First Nations highlighted in first All Nations fest JANIS WARREN The Tri-CiTy News
Calling it a “sacred ground,” First Nations leaders launched yesterday the first-ever All Nations Festival in Coquitlam — an area known as Kwikwetlem First Nation territory. Thursday’s colloquium at Douglas College drew about 100 people wanting to hear about the archaeological history of the Coast Salish people from speakers based at the universities of B.C., Victoria, Simon Fraser and Washington State as well as from the Canadian Museum of History, Ursus Heritage and the Sto:lo Research and Resource Management Centre. The day wrapped up with a show by Juno Award winner George Leach at the Evergreen Cultural Centre. Today (Friday), the event continues at Douglas College with talks about Coast Salish identity with art, language and land; award-winning author and Sto:lo member Lee Maracle is the keynote speaker. Maracle was one of five leaders who kicked off the colloquium, talking about the importance of preserving tradition through storytelling. Ronnie Dean Harris (Coast Salish), Coun. Charlene Aleck (Tsleil-Waututh Nation), Coun. Ed Hall (Kwikwetlem Nation) and Dave Seaweed (aboriginal co-ordinator at Douglas College) also spoke about what’s happening in their communities. Meanwhile, the festival — which is sponsored in part by The Tri-City News — spills over to Coquitlam Town Centre Park tonight and Saturday with entertainment and a salmon barbecue. You can hear the musicians starting at 5 p.m. Friday while the celebrations go from noon to 8 p.m. Saturday and include performances by Bill Henderson of Chilliwack and Doug and the Slugs (for the full festival entertainment lineup, visit allnationsfest.com). Eric Kalnins, Coquitlam’s tourism manager, said city staff have been working for months to get the inaugural event off the ground. And last month, city council awarded the TsleilWaututh Nation, the festival organizers, a $51,550 Spirit of Coquitlam grant. About 3,500 visitors are

B.C. CRIME
Car thieves drive crime rate back up Experienced bad guys finding ways to elude police JEFF NAGEL BLACK PRESS
Car thefts surged 29% across B.C. last year — reversing a decade-long decline — and that was one of the drivers behind a significant increase in the overall crime rate in the Lower Mainland. The crime rate was up 8% in 2014 in Metro Vancouver and 7% in the Abbotsford-Mission census metropolitan area, according to Statistics Canada. In addition to auto theft, B.C. also saw increases in thefts under $5,000, break-and-enters, and child pornography. The property crimes and car thefts are often linked, according to Insp. Peter Jadis, officer in charge of the Integrated Municipal Provincial Auto Crime Team (IMPACT). “The people that we’re dealing with are seasoned criminals,” Jadis said. “Usually when we do apprehend them there’s evidence of other crimes being committed — identify theft, fraud, drug dealing — and they’re using the vehicles for transportation and to facilitate these different crimes.” Jadis said Canada Post’s investigators believe many mail box break-ins are done via stolen cars, which are often found with stolen mail inside. He said the perpetrators are often better organized than would appear from Bait Car videos of the past depicting unhinged thieves just prior to arrest. “They’ll hit mailboxes multiple times and build profiles,” Jadis said of identity thieves. “Your mail will be stolen for a few weeks and then a year down the road all of a sudden there’s a new identity that someone’s using and people see their credit ratings have gone through the floor.” Last year’s spike in car thefts
followed a decline from 2003 to 2013 due to a combination of better car security technology, intelligence-led policing, the tracking of prolific criminals and the use of the Bait Car program to catch thieves in the act. The recent resurgence of the problem has continued this year, with a 40% increase in arrests so far for theft of or theft from vehicles, Jadis said. Part of the problem is that criminals have been adjusting their tactics to thwart police, often ditching stolen vehicles faster. “We’re seeing offenders rotating the vehicle a bit more. In the past they’d keep them 10 to 14 days, but we’re seeing some of them now rotating the vehicles every three or four days.” Thieves are increasingly stealing cars by first stealing their keys. Keys can disappear from your clothes in a locker at a gym or rec centre, or from inside your house, Jadis said. Often, he said, a thief will break into a vehicle that has a garage door opener, use it to get into the home, then search for a spare pair of car keys, along with anything else that can be stolen. Or, if the car is stolen elsewhere, they can use the insurance papers to get the address and use the garage door opener to enter and loot the home. Jadis said IMPACT officers are developing a new model to strategically target suspects known to them who are likely to be involved in auto crime. Another lesser known weapon in the policing arsenal against car thieves is the automated licence plate detection systems B.C. RCMP have mounted in some police cars in the Lower Mainland. They scan the licence plates of passing cars at a rapid rate against a database and can quickly detect one that’s been reported stolen. Jadis said it’s an “excellent tool.” But even that method is not foolproof. Thieves who steal a vehicle

often then look for a similar vehicle and switch licence plates with it, he said. The unsuspecting driver whose plate has been pilfered doesn’t always spot the change because “you don’t always look at your licence plate.” Meanwhile, the crook roams the roads undetected. But if police cameras scan the unsuspecting driver, whose car now bears the plate of a stolen car, he’s in for a big surprise — IMPACT officers will soon be closing in to make an arrest. jnagel@blackpress.ca @jeffnagel
VIOLENT CRIME NUMBERS DOWN IN B.C. While car thefts and other property crime climbed in 2014, violent crime fell 8% in B.C., according to new national statistics. That was despite 88 homicides across the province, a 15% increase. The overall B.C. crime rate was little changed, up 1%. Thefts under $5,000 were up 8%, fraud was up 11%, and property crime of all
types rose 7%. Drug violations were down 9.7% and charges for marijuana production or trafficking plunged 45%. Statistics Canada also posted new crime severity index rankings of major populated centres. The measurement also includes traffic offences and federal violations not included in the crime rate.

The Tri-CiTy News
The second annual Ultimate Car Show in Coquitlam on Saturday was a huge draw despite the scorching 32 C heat. Thousands flocked to the Hard Rock Casino Vancouver parking lot to look at the 350plus vehicles registered — some dating back to 1930. This year’s show featured one-of-a-kind exotic, classic and muscle cars such as the world’s fastest Chevelle, which goes from 0 to 60 mph in 4.5 seconds, and a 1967 Mustang Fastback with about 700 modifications. Eric Kalnins, the city of Coquitlam’s tourism manager, said the event has become one of the biggest for the city, with visitors coming from around B.C., Alberta and Washington State to have a look or to display. Eight accolades were handed out at the car show, including a $2,500 winner-takesall prize for the Best in Show, which went to a 1957 Chevy from Abbotsford. jwarren@tricitynews.com @jwarrenTC

Coquitlam residents Colleen and Dylan Hunter were two of 300 people who took part in this month’s RUSH challenge. Organized and benefitting the BC Lung Association, RUSH (Race & Urban Scavenger Hunt) saw participants go to checkpoints around Metro Vancouver to test themselves physically and mentally. The checkpoints included bubble balls, a roller derby and jelly beans. And the prize was good: the winners reaped a trip around the world if they completed 10 out of the 12 checkpoints. RUSH has brought in nearly $75,000 in support of lung health research, advocacy and education, a spokesperson said.

Get it fresh and enjoy it now or much later MARKET FRESH
BOATS & BLUEBERRIES As is often the case when I write this column, I start out thinking one thing and end up writing another. It seems I am full of zucchini ideas so here is another one. I found this on Pinterest and it is wonderful. I have changed it up a bit to better use local market treasures.
BLUEBERRY ZUCCHINI BREAD
KAREN CURTIS
W
hat a summer we have had! It’s hard to believe I am writing this while hoping for rain. I had a conversation with one of my farmer friends recently that really opened my eyes to just what a challenge it is to farm in this kind of weather. You might think all this sun would be great for the crops but, surprisingly, it isn’t. Farmers plant with an expectation that certain crops will be ready at a certain time so that they can stay on top of the harvest. This year, with everything early, many of the crops are ready at the same time — which makes for quite a challenge for harvesting and replanting. Even sun-loving crops are suffering. Corn, that fabulous August staple, has been ready for a couple of weeks already and some of the corn crop has “tasseled out” already — that means the annoying tassel on the top of the cob is already
And because every fine meal needs a bit of sweet to end it... 2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour 2 tsp baking powder 1/2 tsp salt 2 eggs 1/2 cup vegetable oil 2/3 cup sugar 1/2 cup buttermilk juice of 1 lemon or 2 tbsp lemon juice zest of 1 lemon 1 cup grated zucchini 1/2 to 1 cup of blueberries LEMON GLAZE 1 cup powdered sugar Juice of 1 lemon or 2 tbsp lemon juice Preheat oven to 350 F. Grease and flour a 9×5” loaf pan, set aside. In large bowl, blend flour, baking powder and salt. In the mixer bowl, beat 2 eggs well, then add oil and sugar, and beat on low until well combined. Add the buttermilk, lemon juice and lemon zest, and blend everything well. Fold in zucchini and stir until evenly distributed in mixture. Add this mixture to the dry ingredients in the large bowl and blend everything together but don’t over mix. Stir in blueberries. Pour batter into prepared loaf pan and bake for 45 minutes brown but the kernels are not developed. (Did you know that each piece of that silk tassel is attached to a kernel of corn? I
didn’t.) So what else is ready now? The list is long. Actually, with the exception of the fall squashes and apples, there
or until toothpick inserted in centre comes out clean. Cool in pan 10 minutes, then remove to a wire rack and cool completely. While loaf is cooling, you can make the glaze. In small bowl, mix powdered sugar and lemon juice until well blended. Spoon glaze over cooled loaf. Let glaze set. Enjoy.
ZUCCHINI BOATS
Cut a zucchini in half lengthwise and trim a little off the bottom so it sits flat in a baking dish. Scoop out the centre where the seeds are with a spoon. Spread 1 tablespoon of Aji (available at the market) up the middle. Arrange halved grape tomatoes into the grooves, sprinkle with bread crumbs and bake in a 350 F oven for about 30 minutes. Remove and place diced gouda from Golden Ears Cheesecrafters in between the tomatoes, place them back in the oven under the broiler until golden and bubbling. Remove and drizzle with olive oil and a sprinkling of one of the Salt Dispensary’s finishing salts. isn’t much that is not available. Now would be a good time to start stocking up if you are planning on putting up any produce. Grab a few pounds
of blueberries and throw them in the freezer. All you have to do is rinse them, spread them on a cookie sheet and freeze. They will store beautifully in
zip-top bags. For that matter, you can do that with whole tomatoes, too. Storing tomatoes like this means they are always ready for cooking — when the weather cools off, you can make a big batch of fresh tomato sauce. Lots of produce can be preserved this way. I have talked about freezer storage before as it really is an easy way to take advantage of nature’s bounty. Cherries, raspberries, blackberries, corn, beans — the list goes on. There is nothing better in the long, cold days of December than to pull out a bag of cherries and make a fruit crisp. If you want to put in a bit more effort, peel and slice peaches to freeze. I also like to freeze grated zucchini. Aside from making zucchini bread or muffins, it makes a great side dish. Just thaw the grated zucchini, sauté it with a bit of finely diced onion, place it in a shallow ovenproof baking dish and cover it with grated cheese (Rathtrevor from Little Qualicum Cheese is a great choice). Bake it at 350 F until the cheese is melted and brown on top. That’s the great thing about summer produce: You can enjoy it now and enjoy it later.

GAMBLING IN B.C.
High rollers push gambling in B.C. to record revenues BCLC profit hits $1.25 billion with rise in bet limit JEFF NAGEL BLACK PRESS
Foreign gamblers who bet up to $100,000 in a single hand in some B.C. casinos helped drive the provincial government’s gambling take to a record high last year. The B.C. Lottery Corporation’s net profit that goes to the province climbed 6.8% to $1.25 billion in 201415, up $80 million from the previous year. The corporation’s annual report says the increase was driven by “exceptional performance” from high-limit table games, which saw the maximum bet raised from $75,000 to $100,000 at some sites. Casinos such as River Rock in Richmond and the Hard Rock Casino in Coquitlam offer “ultra-private” high-limit VIP poker rooms and baccarat salons that are popular with Asian tourists. The increase from high-limit gamblers offset weak results in lotteries, which were down because the year served up fewer large jackpots. While BCLC has gained from high rollers, the report warns

High-limit gamblers have done their part to boost the province’s gaming revenue to $1.25 billion in 2014/’15. their interest could wane. “The recent slowdown in some national economies and international currency restrictions present business risks,” the report said, without explicitly mentioning China, where the Beijing government has posted lower growth estimates and intervened to prop up a falling stock market. “There is risk in this revenue stream as it is heavily dependent on a relatively small international player base,” BCLC board chair Bud Smith said in the report. “We know we cannot rely on this business segment for sustainable long-term growth.” In fact, BCLC considers both lottery and casino revenues to
be mature and “facing market saturation.” An estimated 51% of B.C. adults gambled through BCLC at least monthly last year. That rate has fallen from 69% in 2012 but BCLC is aiming to get it back up to 55% next year. The average B.C. resident lost $482 a year to BCLC, up from $450 in 2012 and $382 in 2005. More than $950 million in net BCLC profit came from casinos and slot-equipped community gaming centres, compared to $304 million from lotteries and e-gaming. River Rock had the highest combined slot and table game revenue of $420 million last year, followed by $204

The Rise and Rise of Townhomes
B
uyers looking for the benefits a detached home offers without the hassle of maintenance – or the exorbitant prices – are turning in increasing numbers to new townhouse developments. Sales of townhomes currently account for 60 to 70 per cent of new home transactions in the Fraser Valley. Townhouse sales in that region jumped nearly 21 per cent in May 2015 compared with the previous May. Those numbers would likely be mirrored in Metro Vancouver except for the limited supply of new townhomes in many of that region’s municipalities. Even so, there were 733 townhouse sales across Metro Vancouver in May 2015 – an increase of 34 per cent compared with May 2014.
What’s Driving Sales?
“Townhomes appeal to a broad segment of the market... people who want to own a home but not an apartment,” says Scott Brown, president of Fifth Avenue Real Estate Marketing, a residential real estate sales and project marketing organization. “They want to build equity and have children, but they don’t want such a big financial burden that they can’t afford a vacation.” Michael Ferreira, managing principal
at Urban Analytics, a real estate and urban planning consultant firm, says affordability is the primary driver. “Townhomes are fairly affordable, especially in the Fraser Valley,” he says. “It’s the next best thing to a singlefamily home: you have your own front door, outdoor space, a garage, multilevels. It’s a no brainer.” Real estate consultant and urban planner Michael Geller notes townhouses are popular with buyers across various demographics. “Many empty nesters aren’t ready for an apartment. And for those moving up from an apartment, single-family houses are simply not affordable. They see townhouses as an attractive alternative.”
Product Innovation
Townhouses have traditionally been skinny, three-storey buildings with tandem garages. But designs are changing and bringing more people to the market. “Developers are constantly making notes on unfulfilled needs expressed by prospective buyers at their presentation centres,” says Brown. “Masters on the main floor have come about because of aging consumers telling developers they want that and that they don’t like three storeys with all the stairs.”
Rooftop amenities that accommodate outdoor living are also popular. One Langley site, Exchange, has enjoyed such strong sales the developer has accelerated construction to keep up with demand. “Exchange’s rooftop decks replace the traditional patch of grass a townhouse offers,” says Ferreira. “You’re locked in with three neighbours but you still have outdoor space.” It’s not just the Fraser Valley that’s seeing this trend. Marcon, a Vancouver developer, currently has two townhome projects in the design stages – one along Granville Street with 18 homes and one just off Cambie with 24 homes. To date, they’ve built hundreds of townhomes across the Lower Mainland, including the Century Signature and Westchester developments, both in Vancouver. “In the past two years there has been a major shortage of townhomes in Vancouver, which has resulted in fast absorption rates and higher prices,” says Nic Paolella, Marcon’s development manager.
Strata Vs. Non-Strata
Most townhouses are strata-titled, with purchasers becoming members of a condominium association. But not all buyers want the associated strata
maintenance fees and restrictions. While they are still the exception rather than the rule, there is an emerging demand for non-strata townhouse developments. Parkside (pictured) and Bedford Landing in Langley are fee-simple projects. And Aragon Homes built a non-strata row house development in New Westminster’s Port Royal community. These projects proved to be highly marketable and more are sure to follow.
The Townhouse Mindset
The demand for townhouses is not going to decrease any time soon. Fifth Avenue Real Estate Marketing cites a recent survey of more than 40 industry leaders. More than 96 per cent of them believe the townhouse sector will continue to advance to meet growing consumer demand. “It’s going to be the standard mindset for the next 10 to 15 years,” says Brown. “We need to be greener and we need to squeeze more homes onto available land without compromising lifestyle. Townhouses are the alternative that best meets the needs of multiple partners.”

Plan and plant for an entire summer’s worth of food IN THE GARDEN
BRIAN MINTER
I
know it’s hot out there but let’s keep our food gardens growing seamlessly through the summer and into fall and winter. A number of things have changed the way we grow our own food. First, less is more. Food gardens have become smaller but more productive. I think most of us have realized that we tend to grow too much of one type of vegetable, that it all matures at the same time and that a lot of it ends up in the compost because we have busy lives and no time to process and preserve our food. Zucchini anyone? Now, we grow two to three clusters of lettuce and a few tomatoes, cucumbers and squash to keep us nicely supplied with
fresh produce through the summer. The same is true of brassicas such as broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower and kale and of root crops like beets, carrots, parsnips and turnips. Greens, like swiss chard and spinach, are now planted in smaller quantities so we can use it up in two to three weeks with little or no waste. We are growing pole beans and peas on tripod frames to make better use of space and to enjoy a far greater production. Cucumbers are also being grown this way. Smaller spaces, fewer plants, more creativity, all make for a well-used garden needing less effort. Another trend is towards adopting a more continual and sequential planting scheme. Not everything needs or should be planted at once. Early, coldhardy plants — like onions, early potatoes, brassicas and peas — can be planted in late March or early April while carrots and beets germinate better in warmer temperatures and squash, cucumbers, tomatoes, beans and basil love the heat. To save time and to make
food gardening more efficient, many folks are using transplants and even larger plants grown in four-inch pots for a quick turnaround. They can save weeks of time and keep a nice supply of fresh food flowing to your table. As one crop finishes, another one is popped in throughout the summer and on through fall until winter vegetables take over. I have to give the breeders in our industry a great deal of credit for their creativity in developing, through traditional breeding practices, a whole array of more compact vegetables that produce better, more disease-resistant crops that have higher levels of nutrition and antioxidant values. The variety of food has also expanded, such as multi-coloured carrots, green, cheddar and purple cauliflower, gold and green beets, sweeter yellow tomatoes and crossover hot peppers, such as Chenzo and Loco, which are both edible and ornamental. Food gardening has become exciting again, even for those who only have containers on a deck. It’s now a year
round buffet with new colours, flavours and sizes. Food gardening is easy and fun, so keep that little garden space going. We’re only halfway through the growing season but, because of the heat, many veggies have finished early. If you have
brussels sprouts) can still be planted. It is especially important to plant kale now as well as leeks, cucumbers, squash and pre-started beans. Radishes have time to produce from seeds and I think carrots, parsnips and turnips are worth a try.
empty space in your garden, a lot of vegetables (especially transplants) can still be set out now for a late summer harvest. What can be planted now? Lettuce, spinach, beets, swiss chard, late varieties of most brassicas (it’s a little late for

The Coquitlam Jr. Adanacs won Game 1 of the B.C. Jr. ‘A’ Lacrosse League best-of-seven playoff finals Wednesday night, defeating the Delta Islanders 9-8 at Poirier.

Jr. Adanacs start finals with a win GARY MCKENNA The Tri-CiTy News
For most of Wednesday night’s game, the Coquitlam Jr. Adanacs appeared to have things under control. But for a few minutes in the third period, it looked like things could have gone either way in the Game 1 B.C. Jr. ‘A’ Lacrosse League playoff finals against the Delta Islanders. After holding significant leads for most of the game — at one point the A’s were up 4-0 on the visitors — Delta managed to bring the score to within one before the sec-
ond intermission, when Tre Leclaire scored on the power play to make it 7-6. Islanders forward Chase Fraser managed to score two even-strength markers in the third — both tying goals — but the team could not find a way to take the lead. Eventually, Coquitlam’s Cole Shafer potted the final goal of the game, to give the team a 9-8 lead, which they would take to the buzzer. Shafer had a good night. The first star of the game opened the scoring threeminutes into the first period, burying a feed from linemate Chris Cloutier.

Rules of Play, Details and
Cloutier also got in on the scorign action, finding the back of the net three minutes later after taking a pass from Evan Wortley. A third goal from Chase McIntyre and a fourth from Jordan Magnuson gave the team a strong early lead, which they would need when the Islanders began to rally in the second period. Three goals in a row from Delta’s Tre Leclaire, Brad Hofmann and Jordan Gilles put the Islanders back in striking distance. Only a goal from Coqutilam’s Jean-Luc Chetner interrupted the visi-
tor’s barage, before the end of the second period. But the Adanacs were not rattled. As they have done in many games this season, the club calmly stuck to their game plan, notching their fourth win of the postseason and taking a 1-0 lead in the best-of-seven final series. The two teams will meet again on Saturday, July 25, at the Ladner Leisure Centre. The face off is at 7:30 p.m. For more information go to www.bcjall.com. gmckenna@tricitynews.com @gmckennaTC

Lethbridge defeated the Montreal Rockies 16-6 Wednesday afternoon during an early match at the Senior League Baseball Canada Regional Tournament. Games will be going on at Blue Mountain Park in Coquitlam throughout the weekend and the winners will head to the 2015 Little League Baseball World Series, which will take place in Williamsport, PA., next month. For more information and a schedule of the games, go to www.2015seniorllcanadians.ca.
Cyclist Jasmine Glaesser has added to her medal count at the Pan Am Games in Toronto this week. The Coquitlam athlete, who took gold with Team Canada in the team pursuit and silver in the omnium, won another second-place medal in the road time trial event. Despite blowing a tire during the race, she managed to finish the course in close to 27 minutes, 35 seconds behind first place finisher Kelly Catlin of the United States. Glaesser has had a strong showing at the Pan
Am Games. El Salvador’s Evelyn Garcia took bronze. It’s been a busy Pan Am Games for Glaesser. Last week, her and teammates Allison Beveridge, Laura Brown and Kirsti Lay topped their heat during the team pursuit event. The group went on to finish the finals seven seconds faster than their closest competition, Team U.S.A. The next day, Glaesser competed in the omnium, where she finished with 44 points, which was good enough for second place. But the week is not over yet for the 23-year-old cyclist. On Saturday, she will compete against 36 other riders in the cycling road race, which will be the longest cycling event of the Pan Am Games. sports@tricitynews.com @gmckennaTC
