Erection of the billboards was approved by Port Moody council in November 2019. MARIO BARTEL/THE TRI-CITY NEWS

NEWS IN TRI-CITIES CRIME

Police bust B&E ring Residences of business owners were targeted

A Coquitlam RCMP officer investigates an early morning drive-by shooting Sunday on Kingston Street in the Burke Mountain neighbourhood. One man suffered non life-threatening injuries.

DRIVE-BY SHOOTING

Unclear if shooting connected to gangs CONTINUED FROM FRONT PAGE

of the shooting. He said he heard the sound “pop, pop, pop,” and then the sound of a sports car driving off very loudly in the early morning hours. Coquitlam RCMP said they responded to a call at about 1:03 a.m. and found a man who had sustained wounds from being shot. Multiple suspects were seen fleeing the area in a vehicle. Shortly afterward, officers located a car on fire in the 3500block of Gislason Avenue — a four-minute drive from the shooting — that police believe is connected. Security footage aired by Global TV shows four men arriving in the area, taking off jackets and putting gas cans in the suspect vehicle before setting fire to it. They drive off

as the vehicle erupts in a ball of flames. The area where the burning car was found is in a newly developed area of Gislason, where construction is underway on townhomes, and there are empty lots. It is unclear whether there is any connection to the Lower Mainland gang conflict, a police news release stated. “Evidence is currently being gathered and assessed with aim to further the investigation and identify those involved,” said the release. However, the shooting occurred roughly an hour after another shooting in Richmond took the life of Dilraj Johal, who was in his 20s. Johal was taken to hospital but later died of his injuries, said Sgt. Frank Jang, spokesperson with the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team

(IHIT). The victim was known to police and his shooting is believed to be targeted, said Jang. The Burke Mountain shooting comes about a month after another shooting that took place in Port Coquitlam outside the West Coast Iron gym on Broadway Street that left one man seriously injured. RCMP’s Law said that there is no update on the. Dec. 7 shooting being investigated by the detachment’s Major Crime Unit. However, the Vancouver Sun has reported that the victim was Andrew Cohoe, owner of the gym. But the Burke Mountain shooting, while serious, doesn’t seem to have upset many residents. A woman by the name of Patsy at the Westwood Montessori Childcare Centre

said she heard the gun shots and stayed inside. She’s confident the police are handling the case and she wasn’t afraid. Another man who answered the door a block away at Wessex Street said he, too, heard the gunshots but didn’t want to talk about the incident. On the day the Tri-City News visited, the neighbourhood of large, attractive homes was quiet and there was no sign of the crime. Still, police are hoping new leads come to light in the coming days. RCMP are asking for anyone with information, dash cam video or CCTV video in the Burke Mountain who was taping at the time to contact the detachment at 604-945-1550 and quote file 2021-820. — with files from the Richmond News

Coquitlam RCMP believe they have shut down an organized crime group that had been breaking into homes across the Lower Mainland to steal luxury personal items. Three people have been arrested after a search warrant was executed Nov. 18 at an undisclosed location in Port Coquitlam, where police found hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of personal property including expensive purses, jewelry, watches and sunglasses. Media spokesperson Const. Deanna Law confirmed that a report on Nov. 12 of a break and enter prompted the investigation by the department’s Prolific Target Team. Police subsequently obtained a search warrant and after cataloguing the recovered items hope to return the objects to

their rightful owners. “We may have more people come forward after they identify these items,” said Law, who added people don’t always report thefts but once finding their item might be willing to make a report, which could lead to further charges. Already, the investigation has led to the arrest of a 57-year-old woman, a 30-year-old woman and a 20-year-old man; however, more information about the location of the search warrant or the names of those who have been arrested aren’t being revealed, Law said, because charges have not yet been approved by the Crown. In a statement, Sgt. Keith Schendel, officer in charge of the Coquitlam RCMP Prolific Target Team, said police believe they have uncovered an “organized break and enter group” that targeted private business owners while they were away at work. Anyone who has been a victim of a break and enter between 2018 and 2020 is asked to check the Coquitlam RCMP web page.

Small uptick in property values during pandemic The global pandemic didn’t cool the real estate market in the Tri-Cities last year, according to numbers released last week by BC Assessment. Detached homes in Coquitlam typically went up 6% while single-family houses in Port Coquitlam rose 8% and 6% in Port Moody. In the villages, Belcarra and Anmore property owners saw a 1% uptick each as of July 1, 2020. That compares to assessment increases in Vancouver (10%); Squamish (10%); Maple Ridge (6%); New Westminster (6%); and Burnaby (6%). For strata residential properties, Coquitlam and Port Coquitlam each had a 4% jump while Port Moody townhomes and condos went up 1%. The only municipalities to have higher increases for attached

One of the best restorations of a Coquitlam heritage home is the former Paré residence, located at 307 Begin St. Built in the early 1900s, the property saw at least two different structures over the century including the most recent revitalization under a city agreement. Integrating past with present is the theme of Coquitlam Archives’ latest online exhibit, titled Built History: Coquitlam’s Heritage Homes. The display, which highlights the city’s 27 heritage addresses, is designed to be a resource for landowners and developers looking to update a heritage house.

City targets eight goals in '21 for climate action Council OK'd the Climate Adaptation Strategic Plan JANIS CLEUGH jcleugh@tricitynews.com

Heat waves, droughts, wildfires, drinking water shortages and flooding. Those are some of the climate risks that Coquitlam city hall will keep a close eye on starting this year as it shapes its future policies, plans and practices. Last fall, city council

unanimously approved its Climate Adaptation Strategic Plan (CASP) to boost its climate action pledge, signed in 2007, to lower greenhouse gas emissions and implement programs to address climate change. According to the CASP, which was funded through the Federation of Canadian Municipalities, temperatures in Coquitlam are set to rise 1.8 degrees C higher on average by 2050, and 3.5 degrees C more by 2080. That could have a devastating impact on the snow melt, the drinking water, and plants and animals, the report reads.

As well, the amount of rain in the fall, winter and spring months is projected to rise by 2% by 2050 and 6% by 2080; however, summer rain will drop by 6% by 2050, and 10% by 2080, with potential consequences to the city’s drinking water, sewers, transportation and emergency response systems. Sea levels, too, are expected to go up by 30 cm by 2050, and 80 cm by 2080, with flooding to properties, roads and services if the city doesn’t take action. Jaime Boan, Coquitlam’s general manager of engineering and public works,

the city department tasked to handle most of the CASP goals, said a number of steps are already underway to safeguard infrastructure and services in the event of extreme weather. The CASP framework calls for eight initiatives to start this year: • revise the storm sewer design criteria to include climate change factors, and identify system capacity, to address inland flooding • work with the Fraser Basin Council to develop a flood protection strategy across municipalities as well as plans and capital works to

prevent coastal flooding • study drinking water conservation options, to address drinking water shortages • continue implementing rainwater management measures for all new developments, to avoid droughts • look at adding more clean air shelters in civic facilities, in case of wildfires • monitor the urban tree canopy, to prevent heat waves • assess the health of natural ecosystems, to avoid droughts • and update or expand the interface wildfire risk

management policy, to mitigate wildfires where homes are on the edge of forests. At the Oct. 26 council meeting, Mayor Richard Stewart said the city’s action list doesn’t include Inflow and Infiltration (I&I) — specifically, where storm drains are improperly linked to sewer outlets. And he raised concern about the need for the Tri-City municipalities to work together should an interface fire break out. City manager Peter Steblin told council that Coquitlam is assisting Belcarra, which currently doesn’t have a sufficient water supply.

FLIGHT 752

Scholarship commemorates air tragedy Chance meeting with PoCo man leaves impression DIANE STRANDBERG dstrandberg@tricitynews.com

A chance meeting with a Port Coquitlam man who died on Ukraine International Flight 752 has left an SFU lecturer grief-stricken and looking for ways to commemorate Canadian victims of the Jan. 8, 2020 tragedy. Mahda Jahromi, a lecturer in Sustainable Energy Engineering, has helped launch a scholarship at SFU in the name of the flight’s 176 victims, who all perished when the jetliner was shot down by Iranian armed forces shortly after take-off from Tehran. Jahromi had met Ardalan Ebnoddin-Hamidi, one of his wife’s colleagues, at a Christmas party, just weeks prior to the crash and remembers a happy man and father content with his life. The half-hour conversation came to Jahromi’s mind immediately after learning that Ebnoddin-Hamidi, his wife, Niloofar Razzaghi, and

Niloofar Razzaghi, her husband Ardalan Ebnoddin-Hamidi and their 15-year-old son, Kamyar Ebnoddin-Hamidi of Port Coquitlam were among 176 people killed aboard Ukraine International Airlines Flight PS752 when the Iranian military shot down the plane shortly after takeoff from Tehran on Jan. 8, 2020. TRI-CITY NEWS FILE PHOTO

son, Kamyar — a Riverside secondary student — died in the crash. “Him and his family basically went away in a second,” Jahromi recalls, remembering how he identified so closely with Hamidi, having immigrated to Canada from Iran in 2012 and, like Hamidi, left behind beloved family members. Jahromi said he’s taken

the same route via Ukrainian airlines himself to visit his mom and dad, a trip many Iranians call the ‘Good-bye tour,” and could have been on the plane that was shot down. “It easily could have been us and the more I see and learn about the victims on that flight — the passengers on that flight — the more I realize how close this could

have been; basically, we were on the same route the year before this.” For weeks after the Tehran plane crash, Jahromi sought ways the victims could be remembered, reaching out to academic colleagues at BCIT, UBC, the University of Victoria as well as SFU, noting that many of the Canadian victims had ties with university or college

institutions. “And anybody I was speaking to they wanted to do something. The social media was the easiest platform to express the anger, sorrow and sadness. There was waves of things happening on social media. “But at the time the only thing that was on my mind was to keep their memories and their names alive somehow. I did not not want these people to be forgotten 10 or 20 years from now.” Among the ideas that were considered were a monument and a commemorative event. But the first, although still a possibility, is time consuming to achieve. The second had to be cancelled because of COVID-19. Jahromi hopes a commemorative event can still be held once the coronavirus is reduced or eliminated as 300 people had committed to attending. But what did come out of a year of discussions is the scholarship for post-secondary students, thanks to the help of some prominent Iranian-Canadians like the Eshghi brothers, executives of the Djavad Mowafaghian Foundation. In a meeting with the foundation, the Eshghi brothers agreed to

generously donate to UBC, SFU and other universities for the creation of scholarships commemorating the victims of Flight 752. Of the $30,000 gift to SFU, $20,000 is planned to support SFU’s Flight 752 memorial scholarship and $10,000 will match additional donations, which are still being accepted. Jahromi says it’s his hope that the scholarship, along with additional commemorative events, will ensure that people like Port Coquitlam’s Ardalan Ebnoddin-Hamidi will not be forgotten in the coming decades. “It’s too big to let go,” Jahromi told the Tri-City News. “The pain is still there. Even though I only knew people on the plane — they weren’t my close relatives — it’s so immense, that when you look at their pictures you are reliving it again. “I’m thinking if it has touched me this much and how much has it affected the remaining families? The worse thing is thinking you are eventually forgotten.” • To learn more or donate, visit https://give.sfu. ca/ways-to-give/fund/ flight-752-memorial-graduate-scholarship

Men’s Shed a throwback to Port Moody’s roots Workshop project also provides mental health benefits to its members

also provide new opportunities for programming and public engagement, Millar added. “It’s a win-win. It helps seniors and it helps the museum.”

HEALTH BENEFITS

MARIO BARTEL mbartel@tricitynews.com

Port Moody’s Station Museum is looking to put the work back into the city’s working class roots. Jim Millar, the museum’s executive director, is hoping to start a Men’s Shed society in Charlie’s Shop, a former workshed that once housed a lumber carrier when it was situated at the old Flavelle sawmill nearby. Port Moody council was expected to consider the idea at Tuesday’s meeting. A Men’s Shed society is a movement that started in Australia and New Zealand in the 1990s to provide gathering places for men to work on handyman projects, mentor and learn from each other as well as stay engaged with their communities. Port Moody’s would be the 10th such society in British Columbia while there’s more than 1,000 in Australia. They’re also popu-

Jim Millar, the executive director of Port Moody's Station Museum, is getting some help starting a Men's Shed society at the museum's Charlie's Shop from members of Coquitlam's Men's Shed, including (L-R), Dave Querbach, Karl Zipf, Doug Gale and Mke Jennings. Millar is hoping the initiative will keep local seniors active as well as get some much needed projects around the museum completed. MARIO BARTEL/THE TRI-CITY NEWS

lar in Ireland and the United Kingdom. Millar said the idea hatched from the city’s initiative to become more age-friendly by increasing opportunities for seniors to stay connected. That some

of the projects members might tackle could help the museum is an added bonus.

HELPS MUSEUM

Those projects include the construction of storage cases to be placed on the

baggage cart in front of the old railway station that the museum occupies as well as raised garden beds and even hive boxes to encourage bees to move in and pollenate the gardens. Activity at the shed could

Mike Jennings, the president of the Men’s Shed Association of B.C., said the workshops are as much about mental health as giving men of all ages a place to bring their tools and work with their hands. Since a Men’s Shed was started in Coquitlam in 2015, its 30 to 35 members have completed projects like building little lending book libraries that have been placed around the city. Recently, they constructed a similar structure to allow local sewer Susan Walter to continue offering the facemarks she crafts from a stand in front of her home through the rainy winter months. They also help make minor repairs at the co-op complex that’s provided them space and is often the first home for newly arrived refugee families. “There’s a tremendous amount of skill, knowledge and experience,” Jennings said of Men’s Shed mem-

bers, adding they can range from carpentry to fabricating steel, to computer programming, electrical work and even boat building. Millar said the hands-on nature of work accomplished by Men’s Sheds is a throwback to Port Moody’s earliest days when the city was built upon the toil of labourers working on the trans-Canada railroad and then the lumber industry. “Port Moody was always a blue-collar town before it become a suburb,” he said. “It was the lumber mills that kept the city going after the railways left.” Millar said the initial start-up cost of the Men’s Shed would be covered by a grant from the Vancouver Foundation. Members would do the work necessary to Charlie’s Shop to make it habitable as a workshop including upgrading the windows, doors, insulation and the construction of work areas. The structure already has electricity. Millar said he hopes to get it up and running as soon as council gives its blessing. • For more information about Men’s Sheds and inquire about joining the Port Moody effort, go to coquitlammensshed.ca.

OPINION

W E E K LY O N L I N E P O L L

COVID-19 is everywhere

on’t look now, but COVID-19 is everywhere. It was not always like this. For much of the fall and this winter, about 90% of all daily cases of the virus were located in Metro Vancouver, primarily in communities (especially Surrey) within Fraser Health. The geographic spread of COVID-19, however, during the past few weeks has changed in nature. About 20-25% of all daily cases are now located outside of Metro Vancouver. The good news is that case numbers in both Fraser Health and Vancouver Coastal Health are starting to level off. The bad news is numbers are getting steadily worse in places like Vancouver Island, the Okanagan, Prince George, Revelstoke, Vernon and Terrace, to name a few.

This development is a reminder of how quickly the virus can spread and that no community is immune from acquiring it in numbers. As recently as October, the number of daily COVID19 cases in the sparsely populated Northern Health Authority was in the single digits. The daily average is currently about 50 a day. The daily average in the Interior was about 15 cases a day back in October. It is now just shy of 70 cases a day. The most serious cases are increasing in numbers as well in these regions. Going into the past weekend, 42 people in Northern Health were in hospital with COVID19 and 20 of them were in critical care. On a per-capita-basis, the north has the highest hospitalization rate in the province. In the Interior, 32 people are in hospital and 10 of

them are in the ICU. The virus has never really taken hold on Vancouver Island, but there are signs that situation could be changing as well. Last week, there were 163 “active” cases on the Island and there were fewer than 30 there just a few weeks ago. Such is the changing nature of our pandemic, at least from a geographic perspective. One grim statistic has not changed much since the pandemic began. That would be who is dying at a higher rate than anyone else is. More than 600 residents of long-term care or assisted living facilities have died from COVID-19, with the vast majority of the deaths occurring in Fraser Health and Vancouver Coastal Health (there have been 38 deaths in facilities located

in the Interior and 13 in Northern Health). It has been clear from the start of the pandemic that our oldest population would be most vulnerable to the worst outcome of contracting the virus. Indeed, people over the age of 70 have had 10% of the reported COVID19 cases in B.C., yet they constitute around 80% of the deaths attributed to the virus. Hopefully, the gradual ramp-up of the vaccine rollout - where long-term care residents head the priority list for getting a shot 0 will slow the steady escalation of deaths amongst the most frail. However, as we wait for enough inoculations to occur to reach herd immunity, keep in mind an important lesson: COVID-19 is everywhere. Keith Baldrey is chief political reporter for Global BC.

Coquitlam budget doesn’t reflect tough times The Editor The public and private sectors of the economy have responded to the COVID-19 pandemic in notably different ways. Private individuals and companies have made enormous sacrifices. Meanwhile, our federal and provincial governments are spending and borrowing in ways we have not seen since World War Two. The resulting deficit will eventually need to be paid back through tax increases. It is through this framework that government will play an increasing role in the lives of future generations.

Coquitlam city hall. TRI-CITY NEWS FILE PHOTO

The local level of government is said to be the most connected to its people. During these difficult economic times for taxpayers,

one might expect a level of financial discipline to be exercised at city hall. After all, we’re supposed to be in this together.

However, it’s difficult to reconcile that notion with the latest budget. First, it’s important to understand that our local government does not budget like families do. Families look ahead to the new year and do their best to match their expenses to their income. There’s an inherent discipline in their planning to balance their cash flow and avoid borrowing. City hall follows the same process with one important difference. Recall that the local government has one income source: property taxes. So, when budgeted expenses

(spending) exceed budgeted income (property taxes), the city makes up the difference with more income (higher property taxes). Through this mechanism, taxpayers can always be relied upon to cover the shortfall. Coquitlam’s budget for 2021 includes a property tax increase of 2.94%. This follows last year’s increase of 2.98%. These are two of the highest increases in eight years and come when the inflation rate is below 2%. The budget news comes after the hardest year for residents and local businesses in recent memory. However, the spending forecast from

city hall appeared to reflect a strong economic backdrop, as $9.6 million in new expenditures were announced, along with management and staff additions. The dialogue surrounding the budget was rich with platitudes from our leaders. Mayor Stewart said the city was “coming out stronger on the other side.” While there is no dispute that our local government is coming out stronger on the other side of this crisis, the private sector has become weaker. And that trend should make us all nervous. Ben Craig Coquitlam

WILDLIFE

RENEW

Don’t feed the birds — they’re getting sick Wildlife Rescue Assocation says salmonella coming from feeders DIANE STRANDBERG dstrandberg@tricitynews.com

A rampaging illness is attacking a tiny songbird that makes its home in Coquitlam, Port Coquitlam and Port Moody and dirty bird feeders are being blamed for the problem. This week the Burnabybased Wildlife Rescue Association called on people to take down their bird feeders to stop the spread of salmonella that is sickening the Pine Siskins. Each winter, these nomadic finches range across North America in search of food. However, in the past past few months, dense flocks of siskins have been seen across the Pacific Northwest, likely because of a shortage of food in the more northern range of siskins in Canada’s boreal forest. The birds are getting some of their sustenance from bird feeders but the appearance

of salmonella in some birds is prompting the Wildlife Rescue Association to call on people to take more care to prevent feeders from becoming a breeding ground for disease. In fact, the association is suggesting the bird feeders be taken down until the middle or end of February when the flocks typically leave. “Dense flocks are extremely vulnerable to disease outbreaks — when one gets sick, they all get sick. Sadly, that is exactly what Wildlife Rescue is currently seeing: many Pine Siskins have symptoms of salmonella, and they need our help,” the association notes in a press release. Increased reports of sick and dying birds have been noted across the Pacific Northwest, from Oregon to British Columbia, including in the Lower Mainland. Locally, the Wildlife Rescue is seeing record-breaking numbers of birds displaying symptoms of salmonella infection. Last year, the centre saw 127 sick Pine Siskins admitted to their facility — a 13fold increase from what they saw in previous years. In December alone, for

Your Smile

example, 75 Pine Siskins were admitted and suspected to be infected with salmonella. If you find a Pine Siskin, or any wildlife, showing signs of distress or illness, contact Wildlife Rescue’s Support Centre at (604) 526-7275.

ART EXHIBITION

Discover your heritage, be kind to new Canadians Mixed media artist learned about her ancestry recently JANIS CLEUGH jcleugh@tricitynews.com

Sonya Iwasiuk has spent the better part of her life connecting history with art. Her mixed media installations — some of which will be on show at PoMoArts, starting tonight (Jan. 14) as part of an exhibit titled A New Resilience — tell stories about the past that resonate today. These are tales about people escaping their homelands because of war, poverty and discrimination in search for a better life in Canada. But, two years ago, Iwasiuk’s own narrative about her familial roots took a twist as she was creating her immigrant series. Born in St. Boniface,

Sonya Iwasiuk, who works out of Parker Street Studios in Vancouver, will have her first solo art show at PoMoArts. PHOTO VIA SONYA IWASIUK

Man., Iwasiuk was raised by Ukrainian parents in northern Alberta. Her great-great grandparents were among the first wave of Ukrainians to move to Canada, arriving in Montreal in 1900. They hopped on a train to Alberta and were given a plot of land to farm; however, because of their ethnicity, her ancestors weren’t treated well and were told by the government to leave the property. Family folklore has it that the area’s First Nations members led the pioneering couple to a more suitable site to homestead: One with so much fish in its creek that they jumped out of the water when the wagon wheels passed through. That area came to be known as Stry, a tiny municipality northeast of Edmonton. Over the years, her ancestors built up the land and settled into their Canadian life. And, in her art, Iwasiuk

used her family as a reference point to convey the struggles of immigrants and their want to fit in. She wandered prairie homesteads — many of them abandoned — to look for discarded materials to replicate for her work. With those objects, she experimented with ways to bring the immigrants’ stories to life: The metal pieces or tiles presented tangible history and provided aesthetic, she said. Two years ago, though, the Vancouver resident took a DNA test. And though she knew she was adopted, she

understood her roots to be Ukrainian as well. “It showed I wasn’t Slav at all,” she said. “My blood goes back to the British Isles. My birth mother is Welsh… but it doesn’t matter. I feel Ukrainian and I was brought up Ukrainian.” Her hope with A New Resilience is for viewers to talk about their own heritages, and be kind, considerate and empathic toward new Canadians. A New Resilience will be Iwasiuk’s first solo display at PoMoArts and, on Jan. 14, she’ll speak about her exhibit — as well as her fre-

quent travels to the prairies — in a Facebook Live event, at 7:15 p.m. (go to pomoarts. ca for the link). Meanwhile, Iwasiuk continues to teach mixed media to adults at the Parker Street Studios in Vancouver, where she’s had a space for the past 11 years. Visit TheArtWay.ca to register for her lessons. Also opening Jan. 14 at PoMoArts (2425 St. Johns St.) are shows by Mat Holmstrom (Timeless Pastimes) and Ghislain Brown-Kossi (Are We Still Together?). The three displays end Feb. 15.

Herdman later went on to study at Emily Carr University of Art + Design and UBC, where he earned his BFA in printmaking and sculpting. Today, his prints can be seen at CityScape Community ArtSpace in North Vancouver, where he plans another exhibit. Still, his woodcut printmaking came before the global pandemic hit. Now, he’s focusing his art on another traditional medium: encaustic work that involves wax and feathers. • The opening for Into the Woods at Place des Arts (1120 Brunette Ave., Coquitlam) is on Jan. 22.

A former art teacher with School District 43 will have his first solo exhibit at Place des Arts this month. Rick Herdman, a graduate of Terry Fox secondary who taught at Fox, Pinetree and Heritage Woods high schools, will display about 20 woodcut prints in the Coquitlam facility, starting Jan. 22. Titled Into the Woods: BC Nature in Woodcut, the show includes pieces made over the past two years featuring West Coast imagery — specifically forests and animals. For woodcut printmaking, a technique that dates back at least 1,000 years, Herdman carves his scenes backwards into the surface of a block of wood, typically maple or poplar. The carving leaves the printing parts level to the surface with the non-printing parts removed; that is, the sections that Herdman cuts away don’t carry the ink. Herdman got hooked on the medium after taking a survey course at Capilano University. “I just lived in that art room,” he said. “I slept there so I could work all night.”

Sign Me Up! WINTER PROGRAMS

Be a youth entrepreneur, have a Girls Night In New Coquitlam programs for winter also include Aquafit Shallow at CCAC JANIS CLEUGH jcleugh@tricitynews.com

Online registration for city of Coquitlam winter programs opens today (Jan. 14). And residents are encouraged to see what recreation options are available to keep up with their new year’s resolutions for getting in shape and learning new skills. For little ones, the Pinetree and Poirier community centres have Time for Tots on Wednesday and Friday mornings. And for kids under 12, the city is offering dance, guitar, and rhythm and percussion classes plus soccer, basketball and ball hockey. Science, board game building and nature exploration are also available after school and on the weekends for children. Youth can also join beginners’ badminton and

tennis lessons as well as hip hop, drama, drawing and mixed media classes while teens — ages 13 to 15 — can drop into a fitness centre for an orientation of the weight room to learn the ropes. Entrepreneurship 101 and Girls-Night-In are new programs for the municipality; they will start in February. And for adults, there’s plenty of fun and fitness including ukulele and guitar classes, visual arts including digital photography, language lessons and sports like pickleball and badminton, for beginner and intermediate levels. In addition, there are many virtual classes for Coquitlam residents who want to stay at home during the global pandemic. Masks are required when travelling through all indoor civic facilities; however, a mask isn’t needed during a fitness activity. To check if a program is cancelled due to the provincial health orders, call 604927-4386. Otherwise, to sign up online, visit coquitlam.ca/reg-

istration. Phone registration opens Friday, from 8:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. via 604-927-4386 on weekdays, and 10 a.m. to 2 pa.m. on weekends.

Evergreen rolls out line up for Speakeasy shows January shows at Evergreen are on hold or cancelled JANIS CLEUGH jcleugh@tricitynews.com

A few weeks after the Evergreen Cultural Centre announced its lineup for its second Speakeasy season of 2020-’21, the Coquitlam facility postponed or cancelled some shows. To adhere to Dr. Bonnie Henry’s public health and safety orders, which were extended last week, Evergreen stopped its live performances scheduled for January from taking place. As a result, the arts hub’s dates for Vitaly (Jan. 16); Joelle Rabu and Nico Rhodes: Piaf and More! (Jan. 23); Forev Circus (Jan. 30); and Dawn Pemberton with Gavin Youngash (Feb. 6) are on hold or nixed. Still, Evergreen hopes to proceed with its winter/ spring program starting Feb. 14 with crooner Ken Lavigne. And should the provincial health officer allow social gatherings to continue, the centre will offer: • Feb. 20: Will’s Jams: Rocks and Roots! • Feb. 24: The Bergmann Duo: Pictures at an Exchange • Feb. 27: SANSEI: The

Storyteller • March 6 and 7: The Comic Strippers: Fully Clothed! • March 20: Monster Theatre’s Juliet: A Revenge Comedy • March 27: Kellie Haines: A Birdie Told Me So • April 17: Forev Circus (rescheduled from January) • April 24: Vitalty (rescheduled from January) • April 25: Zodiac Trio • May 2: Blue Moon Marquee As well, Evergreen will present two events in its Swing Sessions, which were co-curated by Valentina Montilla, the centre’s youth engagement and performing arts assistant: The R&B AfroSoul Night with Nigerianborn singer Sadé Awele takes place March 25 while the Afro-Latin and Indigenous Rhythms event is on April 15. Philip Hartwick, Evergreen’s executive director, told the Tri-City News that residents are looking for ways to connect and be entertained in socially distanced ways. Under Evergreen’s health plan, single show tickets aren’t sold; rather, tables of two or four people — small enough for a “bubble” — will be available. “I’m hopeful by May we will be able to resume our operations and get back to normal,” Hartwick said, noting the Pinetree Way facility

won’t be making a profit. Until then, “We are looking at this [programming] as a service-delivery initiative.” Evergreen can seat up to 50 patrons in the Studio Theatre, in their “bubbles.” Hartwick said last fall’s Speakeasy series was well attended despite the measures, and audience members enjoyed the cabaret-style format with small tables draped in black cloth and lighting switched to Edison bulbs to create a Roaring ‘20s feel. Performance-goers were requested to wear masks unless seated, and travel around the building in oneway directions. Hand sanitizers were also provided at the door. Still, adjusting to COVID protocols has been Hartwick’s biggest challenge since he took over the top job last April — just after the spring break lockdown took effect. While the Art Gallery at Evergreen was able to reopen last June, the centre’s in-person educational and performance components were pared down or cancelled. Some content went out via social media but “online doesn’t replace live events,” Hartwick said, noting free creative kits that were supplemented with online resources were also distributed to the public, on a first-

come, first-served basis. Hartwick said patrons were also generous last year when shows and activities had to be stopped: Evergreen took in $20,000

alone in donations from refunded tickets. “The support that we have received has been overwhelming from the public and the city,” Hartwick said,

adding, “I’m very excited about the upcoming season.” • Call Evergreen at 604927-6555 or visit evergreenculturalcentre.ca.

Coquitlam Public Library wanted to do something extra special this holiday season to spread cheer throughout our community. We invited people to create a “Holiday Hello” that we could share with seniors and older adults in the community. We received over 2,500 unique “Hellos” including letters, cards, and art projects. Holiday Hellos were delivered to customers of our Home Library service, to seniorliving residences and care centres and through the City of Coquitlam Meals for Seniors service. This program was made possible with the Libraries as Democratic Conveners grant funded by the Vancouver Foundation and conducted by the Simon Fraser University’s Morris J. Wosk Centre for Dialogue. Thank you to everyone who participated. We are grateful for the schools who enthusiastically offered to bring this project into their classrooms: Baker Drive Elementary School École Glen Elementary School École Panorama Heights École Porter Street Elementary School École Rochester Elementary School Hazel Trembath Elementary Leigh Elementary School Lord Baden Powell Elementary Miller Park Community School Montgomery Middle School Parkland Elementary Riverview Park Elementary School St. Patrick Elementary Summit Middle School William F. Davidson Elementary

Our sincere apologies if we’ve missed any of our community champions. Everyone’s contribution was extremely appreciated.

BC SUPERWEEK

Still hope for fifth PoCo Grand Prix this July Last summer’s race was cancelled by the pandemic MARIO BARTEL mbartel@tricitynews.com

The director of BC Superweek is optimistic the series of 10 professional bike races in nine days will be back barnstorming across Metro Vancouver this summer. And the popular PoCo Grand Prix hopes to be one of the stops. But the toll exacted by the COVID-19 pandemic is still undetermined, said Mark Ernsting. With the North American racing scene stilled most of last year by the public health crisis, riders have been challenged to keep up their training without the barometer of competition while teams, sponsors and host communities deal with the pandemic’s financial consequences. “We’re keeping a close eye on the current environment,” Ernsting said, adding local organizing committees will begin planning this month.

The senior men’s pro race passes through the start-finish area of the 2019 PoCo Grand Prix bike race. Last year’s event, as well as other races in BC Superweek, was cancelled because of the COVID-19 pandemic. TRI-CITY NEWS FILE PHOTO

Ernsting said early discussions with sponsors have been promising. “They fully understand the value of bringing high-performance events to the community, from a show perspective and also as an inspiration for youth.” Port Coquitlam Mayor Brad West said public health considerations will be fore-

most in any decision about the race in his city. “We’re obviously carefully monitoring all the COVID health updates,” he told the Tri-City News. “Things change quickly, so we won’t cancel events until we pass the point of no-return.” Ernsting said he was encouraged to see the European scene come back

to life after a hiatus of several months through the spring and early summer. Races large and small, like the Tour de France and Tour of Flanders, occurred again in the late summer and fall, often with modifications like banning spectators at congested start and finish areas to ensure the safety of riders, officials and specta-

tors. But other races, like the famed Paris-Roubaix, had to be cancelled after officials declared local emergencies because of rising infection rates. Ernsting said Superweek’s long history — with some races more than 40 years old — gives the series currency that keeps racers, spectators and sponsors coming back, even after adversity. The Gastown Grand Prix was off the schedule for eight years but has rebounded to become one of Canada’s most prestigious races that draws tens of thousands of fans to line the barriers along the Vancouver course. The four editions of the PoCo Grand Prix have also been a big hit, attracting large crowds into the city’s downtown to watch the action and enjoy the festival atmosphere that includes beer gardens and live entertainment. West said the city was keen to renew its five-year contract to host the Grand Prix. But its cancellation last summer kicked that decision down the road another year.

West said Port Coquitlam will also have to consider the financial realities of hosting the race as the public health crisis has had an impact on every facet of its budget. “We’re taking a very pragmatic and reasonable approach,” he said. “The first priority is to maintain our core services that residents depend on.” Ernsting said he’s hopeful communities like Port Coquitlam will see benefits beyond the bottom line. “Cycling brings a lot of value to the community because of connectivity.” If nothing else, resuming the races in the summer will be a welcome indication that life is returning to normal, West added, and residents will be eager to take advantage of city festivals and events once the crisis ends. “When COVID first hit, everyone thought we’ve got to get through this for a couple of weeks, and then we can return to business as usual,” he said. “As it’s continued to drag on, you are hearing from people this pent-up desire to interact again.”

BELL, William August 15, 1926 − December 29, 2020 It is with sadness that we announce the sudden passing of William Bell (Grandpa Bill) on December 29, 2020, at the age of 94. Bill will be lovingly remembered by his wife of 70 years, Mary; and his two sons, Gary (Dolores) and Graham. He was a beloved Grandpa to Ashley (Dale), Alanna, and Kayla (Ryan); and his great−granddaughter, Emma. He is also survived by his sister, May and family; brother Eddie (Ellen) and family; and sister−in−law, Beth and family. Bill was born in Greenock, Scotland, where he spent his youth. He met the love of his life, Mary, in his late teens and they married when he was 24. The young couple then spent a few years in Perth, Australia, and then in England, before immigrating to Vancouver in the mid−1950s. Bill worked mostly in construction around Vancouver on many major projects. Bill was an amazing craftsman of his trade who loved building things with his hands, from large projects like the houses the family lived in, to the little beautiful dollhouses he made for his granddaughters. He was truly a master of his craft. Bill had a long and wonderful life and will be fondly remembered and missed by all of his family. A private family Celebration of Life will be held when circumstances allow.
