election is underway, but no signs until Sept. PM an exception in the Tri-Cities Sarah PayNe

The Tri-CiTy News

Just over a week into the federal election and the signs are few and far between, and it’s going to stay that way until midSeptember. Both Coquitlam and Port

Coquitlam prohibit signs from going up until 30 days before the election, while in Port Moody, candidates can start putting them up on public property once the election is officially declared. All three cities have detailed bylaws regulating specific sign locations for public property and measures to ensure public and traffic safety. Signage size and the number permitted per

candidate at each location are also tightly controlled. John Enright, Elections Canada spokesperson, said federal laws around election signage pertain mainly to financing and reporting. “There is very little mention in the Elections Act around placement,” he said, other than ensuring public safety. see SOME, page 12

Gas prices remain stubbornly high despite the latest slide in crude oil prices and infuriated Lower Mainland motorists are feeling gouged yet again. Metro Vancouver gasoline is down only slightly from $1.40 a litre a year ago, while crude has plunged more than 50% from around $98 a barrel to less than $44 as of this week. It’s as if the widely heralded era of cheap energy has bypassed B.C. But petroleum industry analysts say it all boils down to supply and demand. Crude oil accounts for less than half of the end cost of a litre of gasoline, with government taxes and refining charges the other big factors. “I wish there was a simple explanation,” said Jason Parent of the Kent Marketing Group. “There isn’t much of a relationship on a day-to-day basis between crude oil and retail gasoline.” Expecting gas to move in lockstep with crude oil is somewhat akin to expecting house prices to follow lumber prices, without recognizing scarce land or an influx of buyers might have an influence. Parent said crude and gas prices can go in different directions for different reasons, and gas prices in B.C. can diverge from what other Canadians pay — which is what’s happening now. Most of the difference between Metro Vancouver prices and the rest of the country is explained by the higher 17-cent-a-litre TransLink tax as well as B.C.’s carbon tax. Motorists are paying just over $1 in Alberta, a few cents more in Saskatchewan and Manitoba, and $1.10 to $1.20 in most of Eastern Canada. see BLAME, page 13

Visitors take green message to China Hatchery visitors say enviro concerns are growing Diane StranDberg Tri-CiTy News

Back home in northeastern China, Amy Jiang and Nancy Wang teach tourism and English at Yanbian University. But while in Port Moody last week they were bug detectives. The two were among 16 university instructors taking part in an SFU professional development program and the hatchery visit was an opportunity to learn about the environment, Canadian culture and teaching strategies for use back home. After hiking up to Mossom Creek hatchery with educator Ruth Foster, the group learned about the salmon life cycle, studied the parts of leaves with a magnifying glass, contributed to a group poem about the forest and scooped and identified insects from the creek. “There is only theory, no experience in teaching courses like that,” said Jiang, who plans to introduce a segment on eco-tourism to her students when she returns to China. She and Wang were excited to get up close with nature. They have forests and mountains back home in Jilin Province which is located near Russia and Korea, but they are difficult to get to. The two say concern about the environment is growing in China and learning about the salmon-bearing creek has been inspiring. As university instructors, all the visitors spoke English so no translator was necessary,

At one point they were so moved by Foster’s description of community efforts to rebuild the hatchery after a fire, that several in the group pulled Canadian money out of their wallets and handed it to her for educational materials. In all $380 was collected, which came as a surprise to Foster. “They have been very engaged. They are fascinated by the whole process. They don’t have such dense forests there,” said Foster, who added that reaching out to international groups is part of Mossom’s strategy to encourage environmental education and understanding. Shirley Nan, who was the group leader, said many of the teaching strategies Foster used could be employed back at the university to expand knowledge, especially in environmental awareness and English language vocabulary. “I want to talk about nature and ways to protect the environment,” said Nan, who is an English linguistics teacher. Burrard Inlet Marine Enhancement Society, of which Foster is a director, plans to expand educational programming and tours at the hatchery.

PET SEARCH

Port Moody girl’s feathered friend is missing Peach, a dove, has been spotted near Maple Ridge Diane StranDberg Tri-CiTy News

DIANE STRANDBERG/THE TRI-CITY NEWS

Jade Andersen (left) and her daughter Sophie have posted signs in Coquitlam, Port Moody and Maple Ridge in the hopes that someone will find their missing ringneck dove named Peach.

A ringneck dove that goes by the name of Peach and laughs and coos when he’s not chasing his owner around has gone missing and may be in Maple Ridge by now or further. The bird went missing from his Port Moody home on Appleyard Court off Noons Creek Drive last Wednesday morning, Aug. 7. He is beige coloured with a ring of black feathers on the back of his neck and is so friendly, he might hop into your hand if approached. He also has a missing toenail on his right foot. “We really hope someone

PEACH will find him and take him to the local vet or the SPCA or call us directly,” said Jade Andersen, whose daughter Sophie owned the pet for four years. “I grew up with him, I had him since elementary school,” said Sophie, a Scott Creek middle school student who has been plastering the communities of Port Moody, Coquitlam and Maple Ridge with posters seeking information about the bird. Peach hasn’t had his wings

clipped and may be able to fly long distances, although he is typically a sedentary bird, said Jade, who explained that wing clipping is a debate among bird owners but she and Sophie decided not to for the bird’s quality of life. “It might make him safer,” she acknowledged, “as long he stays high in a tree,” but she admitted he’s at risk from predatory animals and even house cats. “We hope he’s still out there,” she said. There was some hope the bird could still be found as late as Monday, Aug. 10, when a report came in from Maple Ridge about a tame bird flying around, and last Saturday, a family videotaped a tame bird in their back yard and contacted the family after noticing the posters around town. “Oh my God, that’s uncanny,’

she said. She sent me the video and it looks like Peach.” The family is devastated that the bird went missing, likely out an open bedroom window, although Jade and Sophie said they’ve been very careful over the years to keep windows closed. Now Sophie says she’s missing her pet and the cooing and laughing sounds he makes. “If he isn’t found, I don’t know,” she says, not wanting to glimpse a future without her ringneck dove. She’ll even provide $100 reward, which is all the money she has. If you see the bird, approach him, call his name, and gently grab him, her mom said. “You know, just be calm, aggressive and inviting and call him over.” The family can be reached at 778-968-4558 (call or text) or 604-655-6884. @dstrandbergTC

PORT COQUITLAM

east Vancouver grocery store sets sights on PoCo location Popular Donald’s Market expands into Tri-City area Diane StranDberg Tri-CiTy News

An empty storefront on a busy stretch of Shaughnessy Street in Port Coquitlam will soon have a new grocery store after independent Donald’s Market secured the location early this summer. Operations manager and co-owner Eric Siu said if renovations to the 7,000 squarefoot space go well, the store could be open by the end of the year or sooner. The latest entry to the competitive grocery store market in the Tri-Cities will make the Shaughnessy Street neighbourhood more walkable and be a destination for PoCo residents looking for locally made food, produce and meats, Siu said. At its Vancouver and New Westminster stores, Donald’s is known for having unusual products as well as organic produce and non-medicated meats in addition to conventional products. Because the company is small, it can bring

in products customers ask for, Siu said. “When ever possible we bring in local products, depending on the price and the quality,” Siu said, noting that Olivier’s Bread in Port Coquitlam will likely be among the products sold. The coming of Donald’s Market to downtown PoCo where Pharmasave and Bargain Deals were previously located is also good news to the Port Coquitlam Business Improvement Association. President Brad Fenton is welcoming the new business to the empty storefronts and said the timing of the news couldn’t be better as the city is still recovering from a fire that burned down five Shaughnessy Street businesses. In fact, the new Donald’s is directly across the street from the burned-out store fronts. Siu said the company settled on PoCo after looking around at other locations. The size of the store and the proximity to other amenities made it attractive, he added. “We thought it would be a great place,” Siu said. “It complemented the liquor store in the back and there’s a

flower store next door. We really thought we could be a big part of Port Coquitlam there.” He doesn’t expect Donald’s will be in direct competition with other grocery stores in the area, a few of which, such as SuperValu on Shaughnessy Street, and Safeway at Shaughnessy Station, are located nearby, because it will stock different products. “We won’t be competing directly with them,” he said. “We’ll be our own entity there.” Siu agreed Donald’s will

likely be a go-to place for local schools seeking donations for fundraisers, and he said the PoCo store opening will mark the launch of a new slogan and brand for the company. Donald’s Market opened on Hastings Street in 1986 and has since expanded to Commercial Drive and River Market in New Westminster. This would be the company’s fourth store and hiring is expected to begin in October.

DIANE STRANDBERG/THE TRI-CITY NEWS

Donald’s Market, a popular East Vancouver grocery staple, is coming to Port Coquitlam this fall in a 7,000 square-foot space on Shaughnessy Street, formerly occupied by Pharmasave and Bargain Deals.

VISITING THE TRI-CITIES

PoMo tourism plan focuses on art & food New committee looks to capitalize on city’s assets Janis Warren

The Tri-CiTy News

Port Moody has a lot going for itself: a solid place in Canadian history, a thriving business and arts scene and fun food festivals in spectacular surroundings. And, this fall, it’ll have a new stakeholder group steering the city on how it can capitalize on these assets — not only for out-of-town guests but for locals as well. The municipality is now seeking volunteers to be part of its newly created tourism committee. Candidates have until Aug. 31 to apply online at portmoody.ca/volunteer. PoMo Coun. Diana Dilworth said although there’s no funding attached to the plan yet, council already has its ducks in a row. Last year, she chaired the tourism subcommittee under the guise of the economic development committee, of which she is also the chairperson. It produced its results before city council at the June 2 committee-of-the-whole meeting and recommended council establish a permanent tourism group to build on recreational, arts, culinary, history and environmental opportunities, among other things. Its audience would be to cater to residents, day-trippers — a key component given the arrival of the Evergreen Line through Port Moody in the fall of 2016 — and out-oftowners from B.C., Canada and abroad. As well, the sub-committee

ATTRACTIONS

A few Port Moody attractions: • Rocky Point Park • Hatcheries • Terry Fox Run • Ioco Ghost Town Days • Craft breweries • Penguin Plunge • Golden Spike Days • Canadian Film Festival • Rotary RibFest suggested the new tourism group work with a consultant and have its strategic focus reviewed by council and other city committees every year to stay on track. Eric Kalnins, Coquitlam’s tourism manager who was hired two years ago using casino revenues to the city, said Port Moody is full of potential but it also needs to have a balance of retail, recreation, arts and craft brewery representatives at the table to make the tourism plan work. Once the committee launches and has its inventory set, Kalnins said he’d like to help out so there are synergies between Coquitlam and Port Moody. “The stronger Port Moody is, the better it is for the region. We can do more because we would have a good one-two punch,” he said. Kalnins said the more cities bond together for tourism projects, the greater the chances to access the bigger bucks. For example, Destination BC gives out grants for initiatives that include at least three municipalities. But with Coquitlam being the only game in town to push tourism, Kalnins said the Tri-Cities has lost out (Port

Coquitlam has no tourism committee nor campaign). According to Destination BC’s 2014 report, the Vancouver, Coast & Mountains region — which includes the Tri-Cities — saw 8,266,000 overnight business and leisure visitors last year, who racked up more than $4 billion in economic spinoffs. Their number one destination? Visiting a park. Meanwhile, Kalnins is expected to present his new five-year tourism strategy before Coquitlam city council on Sept. 14. jwarren@tricitynews.com

Good hearing but trouble with conversation? A lot of people have trouble catching what people say, especially in group situations, despite having good hearing. What a lot of people don’t know is that this may be caused by damage to the so-called motor or amplifier function of special cells in the ear. A new type of hearing aid can help balance this out. A great many people have difficulty hearing others clearly on a daily basis. Bad acoustics, unclear pronunciation, background noise and music often make it challenging to catch what people say. This results in them having to repeatedly ask questions, straining to hear and perhaps increasingly avoiding discussions in large groups. As mentioned earlier, this may be caused by malfunctions in special cells in the ear. According to a theory proposed by hearing researchers, “motor cells” are a type of hair cell responsible for amplifying quiet sounds. They vibrate up to 20,000 times per second. If these hair cells do not work properly then

for most people.

Hair cells in the ear move very rapidly and can act as an amplifier or dampener. If these cells are damaged, they can no longer properly amplify speech and dampen loud noises.

quiet sounds are no longer naturally amplified in the ear and loud sounds no longer dampened. This leads to more difficulty in hearing what is said in a lot of situations. If the hair cells have been damaged by noise or blood circulation problems, hearing aids that amplify quiet speech and dampen loud ambient noise can be a good solution

This improvement in hearing can be achieved for some clients through the new Phonak Audéo V’s hearing aids. This cutting-edge hearing technology comes in a miniature casing that can significantly enhance the user’s ability to hear speech in company. The hearing aids attune to the person you are speaking to and can also recognize if ambient noise increases in the background. Sears Hearing Centre is currently looking to improve hearing for people who experience these challenges and want to try this new technology. We are particularly interested in candidates who have trouble hearing speech in the situations discussed above and can benefit from a demonstration to see whether they notice an improvement. Interested people can register for a free hearing evaluation and a no-obligation demonstration of the Audéo V hearing aids by calling 1.888.771.7459. Advertising Feature

Drunk driving numbers down, says Coq. RCMP But some are still not getting the message SARAH PAYNE

The TRI-CITY NeWS

Coquitlam RCMP pulled 38 impaired drivers off the road during July’s CounterAttack enforcement. The number is down

slightly from last summer, when Mounties removed 40 drivers from the road for being under the influence of drugs or alcohol. “Yet it’s still 38 too many,” said Cpl. Neil Roemer of Coquitlam RCMP’s Traffic Services in a release. “Folks, there are many safer options out there, such as calling a cab, taking transit or planning ahead and having a designated driver.”

There were seven impaired driving-related crashes involving fatalities or serious injuries in 2014 and 2015, according to police data. And while the summer CounterAttack campaign has wrapped up, police will still be doing road checks throughout the year to look for impaired drivers. spayne@tricitynews.com @spayneTC

FIRST AID

Mom saved by quick-thinking kids & CPr Sarah Payne The Tri-CiTy News

Susan Salter remembers sitting at the kitchen table, laughing over a YouTube video with her son and his girlfriend while they made dinner on a somewhat unusual Monday afternoon in June, and then waking up in hospital several days later. It was the unusual part — a series of minor but terrifically lucky changes to the daily routine — that would mean the difference between life and death for the Port Coquitlam woman. Brant Salter, a 24-year-old plumber at SFU, usually finished work at 3 p.m. but would often wait to leave so that he could pick up his girlfriend, 21-year-old Ashley Gray, from her job as a live-in caregiver for a Port Moody family, at 4:30 p.m. But on June 22 Gray and Salter happened to have the day off; they spent the day together before Gray decided to pick up Brant at SFU. Instead of going out, they decided to return to Brant and Salter’s house early to make dinner. As Brant got busy in the kitchen Gray sat on the barstool at the counter chatting with Salter, who had her back turned to them as she worked on the laptop at the kitchen table. After showing Brant and Gray the YouTube video Salter turned to writing an email when Brant heard her say, “Oh crap,” and then saw her lean forward. He paused, thinking she was reading something more closely, and waited, but all they heard was a strange gurgling noise; Salter had suffered a cardiac arrest.

buys time by keeping blood pumping through the body until an AED [automated external defibrillator] can be used,” Parker added.

WAKING UP

When Salter woke up — fighting the tubes and restraints — she was, against all odds, just fine. “If it wasn’t for my son and his girlfriend being there I wouldn’t have survived,” Salter said. “I had no family history, I had no warnings. They’re my heroes.”

comfortable stepping in to perform CPR, researchers and educators have simplified the steps; the Heart & Stroke Foundation offers a graphic chart on their website (visit www.heartandstroke.com under the CPR/First Aid tab). The foundation also encourages everyone to be prepared for a cardiac emergency and to take CPR/AED training. Those who want to learn the technique at home can check out the Family and Friends CPR Anytime product, which includes a DVD and small training mannequin, allowing families to learn CPR together in as little as 20 minutes, Parker said. “In those first few moments, if you have a loved one who has either drowned or choked or is suffering from cardiac arrest, the more you know in those few moments the more chance you have of saving that person’s life before a first responder arrives,” added Maria Bekiaris of the St. John Ambulance, BC & Yukon branch. There are several CPR and first aid training programs available at Port Moody’s St. John Ambulance office. “You never know what’s going to happen around you,” Gray said of the importance of CPR training. “If you can be the first responder, you can make all the difference.” spayne@tricitynews.com @spayneTC

CPR

What followed were 18 minutes that seemed to consume an eternity, Gray said, each second suffused with heartthudding panic. A 911 operator calmly coached the pair to lay Salter on the floor and immediately begin CPR — 100 compressions, no breaths, she advised. It had been nearly 10 years since Brant learned CPR during his Scout days; Gray, who was certified two years ago to qualify for her nanny job, relayed instructions from the operator and moved Brant’s hands to the correct position. In the five to eight minutes before the ambulance arrived Brant focused all his energy on those compressions, unaware that he was repeatedly asking, “What’s wrong with my mom?” Gray recalled. Paramedics and fire fighters arrived at the same time, with nine of them eventually crowding into the small townhouse as they rotated two-minute shifts performing CPR on Salter. Twice they used the defibrillator before she was stable enough to be transported to Royal Columbian Hospital. The following days were endless for Salter’s family and friends as they waited for the fiery 62-year-old to emerge from a medical coma, not knowing if she would wake up or, if she did, whether there

someone in sudden cardiac arrest could suffer brain damage within three minutes; after 12 minutes survival is unlikely,” said Shelley Parker, resuscitation program manager, BC & Yukon, for the Heart & Stroke Foundation. “Bystander intervention is critical because the person having a cardiac arrest can’t wait for the fire department or ambulance to arrive.” In fact, performing CPR in the first few minutes of a cardiac arrest can double the chance of survival. “CPR is critical because it

Recovery hasn’t been easy though. All of Salter’s ribs were either broken or cracked, and her sternum was broken as well, and it was only recently that she was able to sleep lying down in bed. She takes several medications and was recently fitted with a combination defibrillator/pacemaker device, a new technology that qualified her to be in a clinical study. There are some memory lapses as well; Salter has only partial memory of a family trip to Whistler two weeks before her cardiac arrest, and less recollection of a weekend in Nanaimo just before that Monday. And while depression is common among those who have suffered a significant heart attack or cardiac arrest, Salter said she feels some anxiety about the batteries in her defibrillator but is otherwise fine. “It all feels like science fiction,” Salter said as she tries to make sense of what happened. On any other day she would normally have been driving home from work at that time, and Gray and Brant wouldn’t be home until about 5:30 p.m. But a series of seemingly insignificant shifts from the norm on that late June day have given Salter her life back, and she couldn’t be more grateful for every minute of it.

BEAR AWARE

Trap set for bear in PoMo’s Klahanie area Diane STranDberg

is looking elsewhere to fill his hungry belly. But he’s worried problems will continue if the bear gets into other unlocked bins in the area. “I was hoping to get him out of there… his behaviour is escalating to the point where they [Port Moody Police] are worried about it, too,” Hunter said, adding later, “The best thing we can do is prevent conflict before it happens, prevention is better than confrontation.” Police were called to the parking lot behind the cafe on Sunday after several reports of a bear in the area and the bruin wouldn’t leave despite efforts to chase it out. Eventually it wandered away and hasn’t returned to check

Tri-CiTy News

The BC Conservation Officer Service is warning Klahanie residents in Port Moody to lock up their garbage and recycling dumpsters to deter a large black bear from coming into their neighbourhood. The warning comes after a bear was found rooting through an unlocked bin in a commercial area behind Caffe Divano last Sunday. The bin has since been removed and efforts are being made to bear proof the area. The bear trap will be taken out of the parking lot, too, this week, even if no bear is caught. Sgt. Todd Hunter said the bear may have moved on and

out the bear trap that was placed there Sunday. Hunter said he uses strong smelling food such as tuna or molasses to lure problem bears, but for some reason it didn’t work to trap this one. Hunter suspects it’s because there is a lot of other places to go in the area to get unsecured garbage. He wants to get the trap out of there so the wrong bear isn’t picked up. But relocating bears isn’t always the best solution because bears that eat garbage typically make their way back. Hunter said there have been reports of relocated bears, recognized by the yellow tag on their ear, returning to communities for food.

OUR OPINION

A reprieve for the reservoirs

fforts to be water wise appear to be paying off with Metro vancouver reporting decreasing water usage and the likelihood we won’t have to go to Stage 4 water restrictions. That’s good news and shows what we can do with knowledge, effort — and the threat of a fine. Indeed, a new video shows that water conservation is still important in a rain forest because most of the rain falls in the winter and summers are becoming increasingly dry. admittedly, the downside is brown lawns, dusty cars and concerns about keeping street trees and gardens moist. No doubt we will have to look at new measures for water conservation in the future as well as ways to use grey-water or rain collection systems if we want to keep our lawns and gardens. We hope that with innovation, more solutions will be forthcoming and we can have what we want, nice yards and adequate water resources for years to come.

Fassbender signals a fresh start for TransLink P AS I SEE IT

FRANK BUCHOLTZ

Frank Bucholtz is the recently retired editor of The Langley Times. He writes weekly for The Leader. Reach him at frank.bucholtz@gmail.com

NeWsrOOM 604-472-3030 DelIVerY 604-472-3040 DIsPlAY ADs 604-472-3020 clAssIfIeD ADs 604-575-5555 n

eter fassbender ran for the b.C. Liberals in 2013 because he wanted to get things done. He believed the party could win an election that pollsters and most members of the public thought would be a cakewalk for the NdP. He was right. He won his Surrey-fleetwood seat, which had been held by the NdP’s Jagrup brar, by 200 votes — with that narrow margin of victory likely due to an intensive door-knocking effort in the final weeks of the campaign. He talked with voters about jobs, growth and issues that mattered to them. He served as mayor of Langley City for eight years until his election as an MLa. during that time, he served for a period as chair of the Mayors’ Council — which has limited oversight powers over TransLink. fassbender has long believed in a long-term vision for transportation in the Lower Mainland, one which would see the province, TransLink and municipalities co-ordinating their planning efforts. He is now in an ideal position to help bring that vision to fruition as the community, sport and cultural devel-

opment minister in charge of TransLink. TransLink is not broken. It actually does a pretty good job of operating rapid transit, buses, roads and bridges. It is short of funds to take on ambitious new projects, and the recent defeat of a plebiscite to add 0.5% to the sales tax to give it more funds has focused a great deal of attention on it. TransLink has not been accountable to taxpayers. Its private board has closed meetings. It has other subsidiaries with their own private boards. directors pay themselves handsomely and they pay top staff handsomely as well. Mayors have minimal oversight powers, yet under the TransLink legislation, they are the only elected officials with responsibility for the tax dollars it collects — other than the provincial minister in charge. It also needs to do a better job of communicating with its customers, particularly when there are major breakdowns and disruptions, such as when SkyTrain is shut down for hours. fassbender has seen the organization from a mayor’s

perspective and now he will see it from a provincial perspective. as a Surrey MLa and former Langley City mayor, he also knows the critical need to expand TransLink services in the fast-growing South fraser region. Knowing all these perspectives well is a huge benefit. He has promised there will be significant changes by the end of the year, and has called on the board to suspend its search for a new CEo until the future direction has been made plain. Hopefully, long-term planning will be co-ordinated so that more universal (and lower-priced) tolling, new rapid transit projects and bus service expansion are all considered at the same time, and not by different government agencies ensconced in their silos. after all, there is only one taxpayer. This new challenge won’t be easy. Some of the mayors won’t be happy that he will be overseeing TransLink. but he will ensure that the organization adopts the kind of change it needs to go forward and he will not sidestep accountability.

COQUITLAM

Development has water impacts, too The Editor, There has been a lot of publicity recently with people shaming those who have green lawns or clean cars. I don’t disagree with this, but I also think a bit of shaming should be going on in our council chambers and our building permit offices. Oversize homes are being approved at an unprecedented rate in our estab-

lished neighbourhoods. These neighbourhoods now have three to four times as many bathrooms as they used to. They also have three to four times more square footage of impervious ground layer by way of 45% lot coverage and no limit on area dedicated to asphalt or paving stones. Coquitlam has no maximum finished floor area

to lot size ratio, which only exacerbates the issue. In these times of drought, it is moot to say only lowflush toilets or low-flow showers are allowed, when four times as many are in use. It is equally frustrating to see what little precipitation we are getting just go down the storm sewer instead of soaking into the soil that is no longer there.

WATER USE

Year-round H20 conservation The Editor, Re. “Metro water use on target after ban on sprinkling” (The Tri-City News, Aug. 7). I am pleased that residents are getting it and not sprinkling lawns. But I believe there is more we can do to lower that 1.2 billion litre target on a more regular basis, regardless of whether it is cool and rainy or hot and dry. I think it is important in future years to not only tighten

up restrictions somewhat, but to educate the public regarding water conservation. If I learned anything this summer it was how much water is used sprinkling lawns for hours at a time and how much water actually goes down the drains in our homes that could be recycled. It is evident that there are lots of ways to conserve water in our homes by reading about it and increasing our water conservation knowledge. Bins in kitchen

sinks and showers can capture rinse water which can then go into the garden, eliminating the use of that spray hose. Every little bit helps if we all do our part, even in a small way. With drier summers coming our way in the future, we all need to learn about and appreciate the value of our water in Vancouver. It is a precious commodity. Devon Codesmith Coquitlam

We need council to admit that protecting Coquitlam from unbridled re-development of established neighbourhoods is not a bad thing. The water in the pipes alone of these oversize homes is enough to irrigate a small drought ridden country, or at least help out in our current situation. Ken Holowanky Coquitlam

With more bathrooms, large homes can also have an effect on water consumption.

Port Moody-Coquitlam Conservative candidate Tim Laidler is the first out of the gate with a sign at Ioco Road and Heritage Mountain Boulevard.

Some signs already up in Port Moody Summer Food & Drink Specials continued from front page

In PoCo, candidates can place one sign in each of 13 locations on public property. An owner’s consent is required to place signs on private property (though not on the public boulevard areas) though regulations regarding size, placement and permitted dates apply as well. Candidates running in the federal election in the two ridings that cover Coquitlam won’t get an extension to the city’s sign bylaw to account for the longer federal campaign. According to city clerk Jay Gilbert, Sept. 19 is the earliest signs can go up in the city, and they can only be placed in 10 locations specified in the city’s Election Administration and Procedures bylaw. Port Moody residents are already seeing election signs, with Conservative candidate Tim Laidler being the first out the gate with a large sign at the corner of Ioco Road and Heritage Mountain Boulevard, one of 10 locations permitted throughout the city. Another Laidler sign spotted on a bike rack on St. Johns Street doesn’t run afoul of PoMo’s bylaws, even though it went up before the election was called, because the regulations only apply to signs on public property. The bike stand and the advertising space on it are considered the private property of the advertising company, even though it’s located on a public side-

City officials say “Stop Harper” signs take away reflective material from stop signs, which can be hazardous to drivers. walk, said city spokesperson Rosemary Lodge. But some guerrilla election advertising is also being spotted on stop signs throughout the Tri-Cities, with a Harper sticker or graffiti splashed on them. The “Stop Harper” message may seem like a form of protest but it’s damaging to public property, according to city officials. Lodge said in PoMo, city crews will correct or repair the vandalized property when notified and bylaw staff would report any “serious, offensive or frequently identified acts of vandalism to the Port Moody Police department as these may constitute offences under the Criminal Code.” Dan Mooney, Coquitlam’s manager of roads and transportation, says defacing stop

signs with stickers is not only in contravention of the provincial motor vehicle act but removing them takes away some of the reflective material and could be a hazard. “A stop sign is a right-of-way device that is there for safety and real hazards can be created when it is missing, or defaced to the point that it may not be seen or recognized,” Mooney stated in an email. As well, attaching stickers to stop signs is a violation of the Coquitlam Postering Bylaw and carries a fine of $250, although discounted if paid within 14 days. As well, anyone caught placing the stickers on municipal property could be hit with a $150 fine, discounted to $100 if paid within 14 days. It’s not known who is putting the stickers on the signs, but they have been visible for several weeks, even prior to the election call. Coquitlam’s engineering and roads workers have been removing the stickers when they see them. PoCo’s traffic bylaw also lists defacing a traffic control device as an offence. City staff will remove the stickers and/ or markings as they are made aware of the violations, and are encouraging the public to report the location of such violations to their operations division at operations@portcoquitlam.ca or 604-927-5496, or to take a photo of the sign and send it to the PoCo WasteLine app at www.portcoquitlam.ca/ wasteline. spayne@tricitynews.com

ago. So who is profiting from the persistently high pump prices? “Right now, refiners are the big winners,” Parent said. They’re running close to capacity, demand is up because of lower gas prices and therefore refiners can charge more than usual. If crude oil prices get even cheaper — potentially as sanctions against Iran end and more oil pours onto the world market — there’s no guarantee gas prices will follow because of the refining constraints in North America.

But even after taxes are factored out, Vancouver prices are 5 to 15 cents a litre higher than most other cities across Canada. The reason, Parent said, is that Vancouver-area prices follow those along the U.S. west coast, where the wholesale gas supply has been constricted by refinery problems in California, driving prices up. “Wholesale prices have been high there relative to the rest of the U.S. for a month now,” Parent said. Some gasoline comes to B.C. through the Kinder Morgan

pipeline, but the rest comes from Washington State or other U.S. refineries. If prices were sharply higher in Vancouver than cities to the south, Parent said, gas would flow back to the U.S. — resulting in shortages here — or wouldn’t be shipped north in the first place. Another “huge” factor behind why Canadians in general aren’t yet seeing much relief at the pumps is the drop in the loonie over the past year. Crude and wholesale gas are priced in U.S. dollars, so Canadians are paying with a devalued currency that simply doesn’t go as far as it did a year

Giant hogweed gets closer to eradication Problematic plant harder to find in the Tri-Cities Sarah Payne

The Tri-CiTy News

The giant hogweed is one plant you don’t want to come into contact with and after years of dedicated eradication efforts, Tri-City residents aren’t likely to. Native to Asia, the perennial plant has been mostly eradicated in this area although there are still a handful of spots that city crews are actively managing with some unexpected help from the unusually hot, dry summer. Coquitlam parks resource technician Shannon Wagner said hogweed reports are down this year, with only one new plant identified, and historic hogweed locations that have seen ongoing control have little to no new plants present. “One theory could be that the seed bank in the soil didn’t have enough water for the plants to germinate this year,” because of the low rainfall, Wagner said. “But this doesn’t mean that we won’t

have hogweed next year, as the seeds do stay viable for many years.” Giant hogweed started cropping up in Metro Vancouver in 2006, according to the Invasive Species Council of BC, and its aggressive nature allowed it to spread quickly. The plant can grow to up to six metres high and its large leafy canopy crowds out native plants while the sap causes severe burns. If it gets into a person’s eyes the sap can cause permanent blindness. Hogweed was most pervasive around 2009 and 2010, Wagner said, but a public awareness campaign helped residents identify the plant on their properties or in city parks for eradication. Port Coquitlam’s giant hogweed problem is also nearing eradication, said Todd Gross, manager of parks & services. The city started with 450 plants on 15 sites but vigilant monitoring has ensured the seed bank at these locations has been mostly depleted. There are now just three sites with active hogweed growth, which will be eradicated this season, and only one new location reported

with a single plant that has already been treated. “We have made great strides over the past 10 years with removing this noxious weed from within our city limits,” Gross added. “This has been greatly assisted by the dedication of our homeowners to be a viable part of the city’s integrated pest management program.” In Coquitlam, Wagner said there is a lot of public interest around hogweed and far more people are aware of the plant but there is still a lot of false identification, mainly with similar-looking plants such as Devil’s Club, Queen Anne’s Lace and goutweed (when flowering). “There’s definitely no problem with people reporting a misidentification,” Wagner said. “We still encourage people to report [hogweed] if they think they see it.” Anyone looking to get rid of giant hogweed on their property is encouraged to check the WorkSafe BC site first to ensure they’re following the proper safety protocols, or to hire a qualified technician.

BEAR AWARE

Playful Minnekhada bear gone from park Tri-CiTy News

A young bear that was hanging out at Minnekhada Lodge, watching weddings, chewing on plastic cones and playing near the pool has left the area, likely in search of food and new territory. Conservation officers say the young adult hasn’t reappeared since a trap was removed last Thursday and seems to have changed its habits. “The hope is that he would change his behaviour, he did, he did move on; so far we haven’t received any further complaints,” said Sgt. Todd Hunter of the BC Conservation Officer Service. The bear caused a bit of consternation when it started hanging out at the lodge located in Minnekhada Regional Park in Coquitlam, which is a popular wedding destination as well as a place for people to hike and bird watch. It reportedly hung around during a wedding, watching the ceremony from a nearby tractor, popped an air mattress and played with parking pylons, which suggested the bear

was habituated to humans and their objects. But some local naturalists said it was the human activity that was luring the bear to the area in the first place, and the bear trap wouldn’t have been necessary if the gear wasn’t left out and parties and weddings didn’t happen. “The bear is not posing a threat,” said Maya Lakhani, who had planned to start a petition against the trap if it hasn’t been removed, and was worried about harm to the bruin. But Hunter said a survey of the area found no food or waste attractants or other things that could lure bears, other than the nearby blueberry farms. “They are going about doing their thing,” Hunter said of the bears. “What we need to do is to ask people in that area to be cognizant of the bears and to interact with them the same way as if they are in the wild.” That means don’t pursue them down trails and to travel in groups while in the park. Roger Bean, operations supervisor for the Metro Vancouver Parks Service,

The delayed rollout of the Compass card system has been due in part to slow, error-prone performance of card validators on buses.

TRANSLINK

One-zone fares with Compass Tri-City riders who regularly travel to Vancouver will benefit the most by TransLink’s decision to get rid of multi-zone fares on buses so the Compass card could roll out smoothly. Only three routes in the Metro region span three zones, and two of them are in Coquitlam and Port Coquitlam — the 160 bus from Port Coquitlam Station to Vancouver and the 190 from Coquitlam Station to Vancouver. The change to one zone for buses begins Oct. 5 and will apply for the foreseeable future. Regular riders on those routes who now pay $170 for a three-zone monthly pass will see that cost cut to $91. That $79 a month saving adds up to $948 a year. Tri-City riders who travel two zones will see a savings as well, but those who travel in one zone, about 80% of all

Metro bus riders, won’t see any fare change. People taking SkyTrain, West Coast Express or the Sea Bus will also still have to pay multi-zone fares. Eventually TransLink hopes to move to a distancebased price structure and the Compass card system is expected to provide valuable data for its eventual roll out. The transportation authority says it will begin activating Compass vending machines in stages at SkyTrain stations and SeaBus terminals. They’ll initially sell single-use Compass tickets but actual Compass cards will be available via the machines by late October, and by November in retail outlets, walk-in centers and by mail for those ordering online or by phone. Fare gates will stay open, however, until FareSaver tickets are used up.

said the Minnekhada Park caretaker is also well aware of bear safety measures, locking up food and waste, and with blueberry season almost over, doesn’t anticipate any further issues, although bears may still be around. In previous years, the road to the park was shut down to avoid conflicts between bears and humans but that hasn’t been necessary this year, Bean said. “The bear is well behaved and for the most part the humans are we’ll behaved, as well.”

A bear that was hanging around Minnekhada Lodge in Coquitlam appears to have left, likely to look for food and a new territory.

JANIS WARREN/THE TRI-CITY NEWS

Nearly 100 students are learning about police procedure this week thanks to the Coquitlam RCMP. On Wednesday, The Tri-City News was invited to see the fifth annual Junior Mountie Police Academy, which put the youth through obstacle courses and taught them about vehicle stops such as how to investigate a crash and stopping an impaired driver (Lorna Saunders, a volunteer at the Mary Hill community police station in Port Coquitlam, gargled mouthwash for the experiment). Some 230 young people applied to be part of the five-day camp, with 96 accepted — up 32 from the previous year. The kids were picked in a blind lottery. Meanwhile, the public can visit the camp’s emergency vehicle show ‘n shine today (Friday) from 9 a.m. to noon at the Poirier Sports and Leisure Complex (633 Poirier St., Coquitlam). The event is free and includes a landing of the RCMP helicopter Air One between 10 and 11 a.m.

TC SPOTLIGHT Students in the Sustainable Living Leadership Program took time out of their travels to stop in Coquitlam last week. The 25 young people were at Colony Farm Regional Park last Thursday to meet with the Kwikwetlem First Nation and to tour the nearby Colony Farm community gardens. Led by New Westminster-Coquitlam NDP MP Fin Donnelly — the official opposition’s deputy critic for Fisheries and Oceans — the team spent 25 days paddling 1,400 km down the Fraser River. “At each stop on our journey by canoe, participants deepened their understanding about how we can protect, conserve and restore the health of our riversheds,” Donnelly said in a news release. The SLLP is run by the Rivershed Society of BC, founded by Donnelly.

The Better Business Bureau is warning people to be aware of email and phone scams that try and bilk people out of their tax return. According to the BBB, the scam usually involves an email phishing scheme designed to prey on those who are unaware of the Canada Revenue Agency rules and regulations. The organization, which services B.C. and the Lower Mainland, is reminding people to be vigilant this time of year. An email scam is common, the group said, however there is also a CRA phone scam that does not seem to go away. “This has been in the news a dozen times this year,” says Evan Kelly, senior communications advisor for BBB serving the Lower Mainland. “It seems now that everyone has filed taxes, the threatening phone calls are heating up.

Do not return the call with the number that shows up on a call display because it is likely fake. People should also be aware that the CRA: • does not accept payment through pre-paid credit or gift cards; • will not send emails containing any links. • will not request personal information of any kind from a taxpayer by email or text message.

B.C. gov’t wants input on climate action GREEN SCENE

ELAINE GOLDS

ou may not be aware of a rather hasty public consultation currently occurring with regard to B.C.’s Climate Action Plan. You can get more information and fill out an online survey at www. engage.gov.bc.ca/climateleadership. The survey must be completed by 4 p.m. on Monday, Aug. 15, although additional comments can be submitted as late as Sept. 14. This initiative is certainly timely as we are experiencing an unusual drought in B.C., which is thought by many to be related to global warming. The world, as we know it, faces an uncertain future with more extreme weather events if governments around the globe fail to take effective action to reduce fossil fuel emissions. Scientists calculate fossil fuel emissions since the beginning of the industrial revolution (with the bulk of them emitted in the last 60 years) have

THINKSTOCK

The provincial government is currently asking members of the public to comment on the Climate Action Plan and an online survey must be filled out by 4 p.m. on Monday, Aug. 15 at www.engage.gov. bc.ca/climateleadership. already raised global temperatures by one degree Celsius. If we wish to avoid the havoc of disrupted ecosystems, severe weather and social unrest, we must attempt to limit global warming to a rise of no more than two degrees celsius in total. To achieve this, scientists estimate carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere should not be allowed to reach more than 450 ppm (parts per million), an increase of 170 ppm beyond the pre-industrial base level of 280 ppm. If we do nothing and stick with our current habits, carbon dioxide could rise to an un-

thinkable 700 ppm by 2100 with an accompanying four degree rise in average temperature and one metre rise in sea level. The longer we collectively deny global warming is happening and procrastinate about reducing fossil fuel use, the harder it will be to stay within this safety zone of 450 ppm. We will do a huge disservice to future generations if we fail to reduce our fossil fuel emissions. Our grandchildren will surely look back upon us as the most selfish generation that ever existed. So, isn’t it time to take some real action? Whether we like it or not,

we’ve got a carbon diet to which we must adhere for the health of the planet. If we are to achieve a rise of no more than 450 ppm of carbon dioxide, then every country in the world must switch to using renewable (carbon-free) energy sources for most of their energy needs — and we must to do it soon. Right now, world emissions total 37 GT (giga tonnes) per year. We need to limit our long term cumulative emissions to no more than a total of 1000 GT to stay within that 450 ppm range. That gives us only 27 more years if our carbon emissions stay at the current

rate before we hit a brick wall of disaster. Procrastination, it seems, is no longer a viable option. It’s estimated that two-thirds of our fossil fuel reserves must stay in the ground to avoid catastrophic warming. That means selectively using the cleanest fossil fuels and avoiding extraction of the truly carbon-intensive ones like the tar sands. So, it’s short-sighted and foolish to propose building two pipelines across B.C. to export tar sand-derived diluted bitumen around the world. The LNG industry in B.C. holds very limited promise only if the government ensures carbon pollution is minimized to the greatest extent possible. Considerable improvements will be required before this is achieved. B.C.’s Clean Energy Act essentially crippled BC Hydro by prohibiting this Crown corporation from developing any renewable sources of electricity other than Site C. It seems to me that BC Hydro should be allowed to lead the way in the construction of solar and wind-derived electricity facilities in this province. B.C.’s innovative carbon tax, introduced in 2008, also needs some updating so that it can be more fair and effective. The rate has been frozen since 2012 and will apparently remain so

until 2018. This seems truly misguided as is the fact that it applies to only 70% of greenhouse gas emissions in B.C. We need a level playing field with no industry getting special treatment. With transportation accounting for 37% of our emissions, it is surprising the government is not doing more to provide adequate public transit instead of building more bridges for vehicles. The survey allows participants to allocate points between four or five options that could help us reduce greenhouse gas emissions with regard to transportation, buildings, the economy and “what we value.” One option in every category is asking government to implement regulations and incentives. To my mind, we urgently need government to implement regulations and create incentives for change if we are to achieve the projected 33% reduction in emissions by 2020 (compared to the 2007 level) and 80% by 2050 as wisely mandated in our Climate Action Plan. Like never before, we must demand that government provides leadership. Based on the input received, the government intends to develop a draft plan which will be released for public comment in December. I hope everyone will participate in this important survey.

Marcon celebrates 30 years with O

ne of the most respected builders in the province, Marcon, is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year. It is fitting then that Marcon unveil its newest project located in South Cambie - two low-rise red brick buildings dubbed Park & Metro. This collection of 73 one, two and three bedroom residences, ranging from 517 to 1,313 square feet, is located on a quiet residential street yet close to all of the urban amenities home buyers are looking for. Ask any realtor to list the most important things a home should have and you are likely to hear: location, location, location. At Park & Metro, not only is it nestled in one of the city’s most coveted neighbourhoods and school catchments, it’s surrounded by parks,

Park & Metro

trails and athletic fields, and these homes are stunning. Park & Metro’s interior finishes offer uncompromising attention to detail. The one, two and three bedroom West Coast homes are distinguished by open interiors appointed with high quality, bright, spacious kitchens with Bosch stainless steel appliances, full-height pantry, Quartz countertops, built-in microwave and generous size master bedrooms with room for a king size bed, and the comfort of air conditioning for every home. “For those who love the outdoors, Park & Metro is close to Queen Elizabeth Park, Langara Golf Course and the North Arm Trail Greenway,” says Celia Chiu, Park & Metro Sales Manager. “With prices starting from $348,800, we are appealing to a large cross section of buyers.”

It’s the level of quality, features and finishes that is Marcon’s signature. Since 1985, locally owned Marcon has stayed true to its mandate of consistently exceeding expectations, both before and after homeowners receive the keys. Marcon’s trademark attention to detail is unmistakable in Park & Metro; one need only take in the oversized patios, decks and terraces, parking and full size storage/bicycle lockers, and rain screen technology to know that this is a unique offering. Marcon has built a stellar reputation constructing more than 8,900 quality homes across the province, but more importantly Marcon stands behind what they deliver with their Customer Care program. “I don’t think anyone in the Lower Mainland can touch Marcon’s customer service department,” says Chiu. “Its comprehensive service continues throughout the process and beyond.”

Since the Canada Line went in, this former sleepy enclave burst onto the scene as a cultural melting pot waiting to be discovered. It boasts a variety of upscale, bohemian and chic boutiques, bakeries, bars and restaurants. Then there’s Marine Gateway - soon to be home to a number of shops, cafes and restaurants, professional services, as well as a Steve Nash fitness facility and an 11-screen Cineplex Theatre. Don’t miss this opportunity to buy in South Cambie. Act fast as more than 70 per cent of the South building is sold and the North building has just been released. The Sale Centre and display home, located at 688 South West Marine Drive, Vancouver, is open daily (except Fridays) from noon to 5 p.m. For more information call 604-3258111, email sales@parkandmetro.ca or visit www.marcon.ca/parkandmetro. Estimated occupancy is Summer 2017.

Summer sales are still strong Diane StranDberg Tri-CiTy News

A sizzling July didn’t slow down the summer real estate market, with property sales up 33.5% above the 10-year sales average for the month, reports the Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver (REBGV). And Coquitlam was one of the hot spots. According to REBGV figures, Coquitlam home sales held steady in July — and prices rose — going against the trend of slower sales in summer, when most people opt for vacationing over negotiating real estate deals. REBGV president Darcy McLeod speculates Coquitlam is becoming increasingly attractive because of its relative affordability compared to Vancouver and the North Shore. “A detached home in Vancouver is in excess of $1 million [and] in Coquitlam selling around the $800,000 mark, that’s significantly less money,” said McLeod, noting that there is still a wide variety of housing options in the TriCities, including townhouses and condominiums.

In Coquitlam, for example, 198 single-family detached homes were sold last month, compared to 199 in June, and the median selling price rose to $893,000 from $890,000. In every other city tracked by the REBGV, somewhat fewer homes were sold in July compared to June, with McLeod noting that June is typically busy because buyers want to wrap up deals prior to summer. Despite the slight monthover-month decline, overall sales in July were well above the 10-year average, McLeod said, owing to low interest rates, consumer confidence and a reduced supply of homes for sale. “We have about 5,000 to 6,000 fewer homes for sale today than we’ve seen at this time of year over the last five to six years.” When sellers do opt to put up a for sale sign, the properties are snapped up quickly if they are priced correctly, McLeod said. The MLS Home Price index composite benchmark price for all residential properties in Metro Vancouver is currently $700,500, an 11.2% increase from July 2014.

DEBT REPORT

Debt downside of record rates JeFF nageL BlaCk Press

High levels of debt mean many B.C. households may be under serious financial pressure once a long-expected climb in interest rates finally begins. British Columbians had an average of $99,834 in household debt in 2014, according to a new survey by Pollara conducted for BMO’s annual debt report. That’s up more than 26% from $79,089 in 2013. According to the report, 58% of B.C. households carry credit card debt despite the high interest rates they charge. That’s well above the national average of 52%. It found 44% in B.C. have mortgages and 10% have student loans. Seventy-one per cent of B.C. respondents with household debt said they would be stressed if interest rates rose two points – significantly more than the national average of 64% or 59% of Albertans who said a two-point hike would be stressful. “The sizable number of indebted households that would feel very strained by a relatively moderate increase in interest rates is concerning,” BMO senior economist Sal Guatieri said.

“This is a worrisome side effect of a prolonged period of low interest rates and needs to be closely monitored, especially if rates continue to fall.” Guatieri said the rising household debt levels may be partly explained in some areas by rapidly rising home prices that spur buyers to take on larger mortgages. Bank officials say an eventual rise in rates to normal levels is inevitable and families should stress-test their ability to withstand the increase and manage their finances in a higher rate environment. A typical Surrey house now selling for $689,000 requires mortgage payments of $2,840 a month, assuming a 2.7% rate, 10% down payment and 25-year amortization. A twopoint rise to 4.7% would take that payment up to $3,500. Too many people in the Lower Mainland in particular are buying homes at prices that leave them barely able to cover the mortgage and associated household costs, said Gary Tymoschuk, vicepresident of operations for the Credit Counselling Society. “Then you throw on an extra credit card or two and it makes it very tight in terms of managing all the debt,” he said. newsroom@tricitynews.com

write about colchicums almost every summer because they are so easy to grow and are so important for fall colour. August is the only time of year to plant these September-blooming crocus that also go by the name Autumn Crocus. It’s so nice to see fresh colour popping out of the ground so quickly after being planted. Colchicum bulbs become huge and can, over time, produce 19 to 25 flowers, one right after the other, until they

all open in a profusion of colour. A lady who used to grow thousands in her backyard in Vancouver told me it takes about two years for a small bulb to grow into a huge specimen, at which point it splits into four smaller ones. Small bulbs will produce five to seven flowers, while mid-sized bulbs will have about a dozen blooms. I have learned the hard way that these bulbs love a sunny, well-drained, yet moist location, with average soil. One year we planted them in several shady spots, only to have

them gradually deteriorate to the point of no return. You can leave them in the ground to naturalize, if that is the effect you wish to have. A single corm of a large colchicum hybrid can easily multiply to cover nearly 900 sq. cm. of garden. Just imagine what a few well-placed groupings throughout your garden can do. It is best to plant them about 10 cm deep and about 15 to 20 cm apart. They need some room, not only to multiply, but also for the huge foliage which will develop the following spring.
