Mounties slammed over Pickton A single regional force may have stopped serial killer sooner, says report

IN QUOTES

“For Coquitlam RCMP, it was easy to put Pickton aside due to the other violent crimes.”

By Jeff Nagel BLACK PRESS

Mounties based in Coquitlam had strong grounds to pursue Robert Pickton as the serial killer hunting Vancouver sex trade workers in the late 1990s but did not investigate him aggressively enough. That’s one of the key findings in a report to the Missing Women Inquiry that cites a failure of leadership within the RCMP as well as the Vancouver Police in pursuing Pickton, whose activities straddled their jurisdictions. The report by Deputy Chief

The Evans Report

Jennifer Evans of Ontario’s Peel Regional Police was commissioned by the inquiry to provide an independent review of the policing decisions in the Pickton case. “Someone in authority, either in the RCMP or the VPD, needed to champion a co-ordinated effort to these investigations,” Evans con-

cluded. Instead, she found, Coquitlam RCMP — bogged down with active cases — neglected Pickton as the probable serial killer while VPD investigators felt more pressure to act but were reluctant to tread on the Mounties’ turf. “For Coquitlam RCMP, it was

easy to put Pickton aside due to the other incoming violent crimes which they felt had to be investigated as a priority,” Evans wrote. “They did not feel the pressure from the missing women investigations.” Evans suggests the “competing priorities” that hindered the Pickton case might have been swept aside had a single force policed the region. “I believe that a quicker and more co-ordinated police response would have resulted if one police agency held the same jurisdictional control over both Pickton’s residence and the DTES where the women went missing from.” Evans asked VPD officers why they didn’t just go out to the pig farm in Port Coquitlam and investigate Pickton themselves.

“It just isn’t done,” one told her, while another warned it would lead to “policing anarchy” and a third said Coquitlam Mounties assured them the case was being actively pursued. But as the case grew more complex, she wrote, communications between the two police forces broke down. Evans found RCMP Chief Supt. Dale Bass had been briefed on the missing women investigation, had been told three serial killers could be active in B.C. and should have pushed sooner for a more co-ordinated approach with the VPD. The fact no bodies were turning up “created an excuse for ignoring the problem which permeated both the VPD and the RCMP.” see ONTARIO OFFICER OFFICER,, page A6

Stewart back in, Washington joins 6 Clay leads council Hodge and O’Neill incumbents in city that’s half rookies, newbies on council council chambers half incumbents By Janis Warren

By Gary McKenna

By Sarah Payne

THE TRI-CITY NEWS

Richard Stewart was back in the Coquitlam mayor’s chair for the regular council meeting on Monday, a position he’ll be in for the next three years after a convincing win last Saturday over challenger Barrie Lynch. Stewart and the current council, including Coun. Lynch, spent the final meeting of their term tying up last-minute business — approving committee minutes and land-use applications — be- STEWART fore the new council is sworn in Dec. 5. But Stewart also acknowledged the efforts of two incumbents who soon won’t be around the table: Lynch, a three-term councillor who campaigned against Stewart, and Doug Macdonell, a two-term councillor and the city’s recreation committee chair. As well, Stewart recognized the two councillors-elect, who were in the audience and will be taking Lynch and Macdonell’s seats: Craig Hodge, a retired Tri-City News photographer who is the highest vote-getter for a first-time candidate in Coquitlam’s history; and Terry O’Neill, a former Tri-City Newss Face to Face columnist. Both men knocked on thousands of doors for weeks during the race — hearing directly from residents angry about rising property taxes and costs at city hall — in order to gain a council job. Last Saturday, CUPE-endorsed Hodge, a past president of the Tri-Cities’ Chamber of Commerce, placed 211 votes shy of the top spot that was won by Coun. Selina Robinson with 9,635 votes. Also returning to council are incumbents Brent Asmundson, Neal Nicholson, Mae Reid, Linda Reimer and Lou Sekora. Macdonell, who collected 102 fewer votes than Asmundson, who placed eighth, did not attend Monday’s city council meeting. Contacted Monday morning, Macdonell said he was disappointed with the results. “There are some things that I wanted to see move forward in the city for the next three years and I A bullet [•] denotes inhope these will get off the cumbent): table,” he said, referring to the city’s bid for the MAYOR 2016 BC Summer Games • Richard Stewart — 10,050 and the events tourism Barrie Lynch — 7,591 strategy.

Port Coquitlam Mayor Greg Moore won a second term in the city’s top job after decisively defeating challengers William Issa and Patrick Alambets during Saturday night’s civic election. The results showed Moore leading in every poll with a total of 5,827 votes, followed by Issa with 1,691 and Alambets with 310. “I am honoured by the support I received,” Moore told The Tri-City News MOORE shortly after the results were posted to the city website. “I am looking forward to having a couple of good nights sleep because I haven’t had one in a while.” He said the election results validated his and council’s work, and are an endorsement of his platform for the upcoming term. Moore added that he and council will take much of what they heard on the doorsteps during the campaign to formulate their plans for the next three years. Issa may have come up well short in the vote count but he said he was proud of the work he did and the issues he raised over the campaign. “We didn’t win but it is not all about winning,” he said, ruling out a future mayoral run. “It is about getting to the end and standing up for the community and I think we did that.” Most incumbents faired well in Saturday’s results, with Coun. Brad West topping the polls with 5,219 votes. He was followed by councillors Darrell Penner (4,493), Mike Forrest (4,219), Glenn Pollock (3,718) and Michael Wright (3,361). Said West: “To get re-elected and top the polls is a nice little extra.” But while most incumbents held on to their seats on Saturday, there will be one new face on council when the new term begins. Dean Washington edged Coun. Sherry Carroll for the sixth and final spot with 2,802 votes to her 2,657. Carroll’s loss means there will be no female representation on the next council.

Port Moody Coun. Mike Clay is settling in to his new title — for now it’s still mayor-elect — and says he’s looking forward to working with the new city council. “So far, I’m enjoying it,” Clay joked of his new role. “It was a little bit surreal when everything wrapped up and it started to sink in.” Clay has spent the last six years as a city councillor and, after a brief adjust- CLAY ment period, he doesn’t foresee many glitches in shifting to the mayor’s office, where Joe Trasolini has held court for the last 12 years. “He guided the city through a particular period of really rapid growth and development, and I think he and the crew that worked with him were very good at managing that phase of the city,” Clay said. “Now we’re at a slightly different phase of doing things on a smaller scale.” One of the first things Clay plans to tackle is getting the new council together to see where there is agreement on issues and where different points of view need to be accommodated. And if the campaign literature is any indication, one area all the elected candidates agreed on was opening the lines of communication with the Evergreen Line project team and TransLink. “We have to start the conversation now instead of waiting until next year when they’re banging on the door with a backhoe,” Clay said. Returning incumbent Coun. Diana Dilworth said the city needs to look proactively at the implications of the Evergreen Line and make plans ahead of time. “First A bullet [•] denotes inand foremost we need to cumbent): work on developing our strategic plan for the MAYOR term, and hire a city manMike Clay — 3,112 ager,” she added.

Steep learning curve for PM rookies continued from page A3

Rookie city councillors Zoe Royer, Rick Glumac and Rosemary Small have a steep learning curve ahead, Nuttall added, but staff and the rest of council will be helping to get them up

to speed quickly. Royer said a top priority for council will be tweaking the official community plan â&#x20AC;&#x201D; not reopening it entirely â&#x20AC;&#x201D; to make plans for Evergreen. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The budget and staff recruitment are high

priorities for council but what we need is immediate action on engaging with the Evergreen Line team,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We want to know what they will do to protect Port Moody business owners as well as the community from

total gridlock.â&#x20AC;? Official election results released by the city Tuesday afternoon showed Clay dropped a few votes from Saturday eveningâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s numbers, from 3,154 down to 3,112. Council candidate Barbara Junker, who

lost to Rosemary Small by just 40 votes, also dropped four votes to finish with 1,645. Chief elections officer Colleen Rohde said the deadline to apply for a recount of ballots is Nov. 28. spayne@tricitynews.com

School board business has taken a back seat to the civic election and teachersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; job action but Tri-City trustees will soon start tackling some important issues in the next few months, promised board chair Melissa Hyndes.

Green said, with anonymous mailers being sent out and signs belonging to rival candidates being stolen. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Residents are looking for a council that is forward moving and able to identify the needs of the community and really move forward in a positive way,â&#x20AC;?

TRI-CITY NEWS FILE PHOTO

Hundreds of people combed the Pickton property in Port Coquitlam starting early in 2002 and found the remains of dozens of women who were victims of serial killer Robert Pickton.

Ontario officer says Coq. RCMP waited too long continued from front page

IN QUOTES

By mid-1999, four informants had told police they suspected Pickton, with the ability to dispose of bodies, was the serial killer and three of them said Pickton associate Lynn Ellingsen had claimed to see him butchering a woman in his barn. Evans found police were too quick to believe Ellingsen’s denials — particularly when she refused a lie detector test. She also criticized the RCMP for agreeing to wait until the “rainy season” to interview Pickton, causing a four-month delay from September 1999 to January 2000. The two forces failed to communicate well after the critical interviews with informants in mid-1999, Evans found, which hurt the investigation and “resulted in Pickton remaining free to prey upon the women of the DTES.” When Pickton was interviewed, the VPD wasn’t notified or told of the results. By January 2001, when the RCMP-led Project Even-handed investigation was launched, police believed there was a serial killer but Evans noted they thought he was dormant. Even a summer student doing data entry work who had access to some of the material urged more action. “A serial killer — one cunning enough to kill and

“A serial killer — one cunning enough to kill and fully dispose of 40 or 50 women without getting caught — is on the loose.” From an essay by a student who had access to missing women case material

fully dispose of 40 or 50 women without getting caught — is on the loose,” he warned superiors in a 2001 essay. Pickton wasn’t finally arrested until February 2002, five years after his 1997 attack on a prostitute who escaped his farm resulted in an attempted murder charge that was later dropped. The RCMP seized Pickton’s clothes that night in 1997 but didn’t test them for seven years, belatedly discovering the DNA of two missing women. Evans notes that while mistakes were made, good work was done, including that by a committed investigator in Coquitlam who was promoted and transferred away in mid-1999. “In hindsight it appears easy to see a clear path to Pickton,” she wrote, describing the errors as the result of a lack of leadership and commitment — not malice. jnagel@blackpress.ca

2010 VPD report also criticized Coq. RCMP’s handling of case In August 2010, a Vancouver Police Department report on the missing women investigation also criticized Coquitlam RCMP, saying the promotion and transfer of a key investigator in the Robert Pickton case contributed to the investigation DOUG LEPARD stalling. The report into Vancouver’s missing women case was written by Doug LePard, a deputy chief constable with VPD. It states Mike Connor, then a corporal and an investigator with Coquitlam RCMP, was the driving force behind the investigation locally, first getting involved in the case in August 1998, when he took on responsibility for the inquiry. A month later, he requested surveillance of Pickton by the RCMP’s Special ‘O’ team but several days of monitoring revealed nothing. In November 1998, Connor requested aerial surveillance of the Pickton property, according to LePard’s report. But in August 1999, a year after Connor had taken over the file, VPD investigators learned he had been promoted and transferred. The report’s conclusion of the effect of this move: “With the transfer of Corporal Connor, who was the driving force in the investigation, and the Provincial Unsolved Homicide Unit’s conclusion that [a witness] was not credible, the investigation was effectively derailed. Incredibly frustrated with the turn that the RCMP-led investigation had taken, and their inability to change its course, [VPD] Detective Lepine and Detective Constable Chernoff returned to the [Missing Women Review Team] to pursue other investigative avenues.” newsroom@tricitynews.com

Storm turns out the lights Thank You By Sarah Payne THE TRI-CITY NEWS

Nearly 9,000 Tri-City residents woke up without power Tuesday morning after a heavy storm blasted the Lower Mainland overnight. In Coquitlam, six different outages from Dawes Hill Road to the east side of Westwood Plateau left about 6,600 homes in the dark. Foster Avenue was closed briefly after a tree came down from the Vancouver Golf Club but it was reopen again by 7 a.m. One lane off Craigen Avenue was expected to remain closed because of a downed tree until BC Hydro could clear the wires, said Dan Mooney, Coquitlam’s manager of roads and traffic operations. Morning commuters got held up at 20 dark traffic signals at minor intersections. Mooney said additional lights were out along the Lougheed Highway corridor, Mariner Way

at Como Lake Avenue, and David Avenue but those were running on back-up battery systems. A two-vehicle accident at Robson Drive and Pinetree Way resulted in injuries serious enough that emergency responders were considering bringing in a helicopter. “Please, everyone, obey the four-way stops at signals that are dark,” Mooney said. Coquitlam staff also reported four water pump stations and three sewer pump stations were running on generators to prevent any interruption in service. One portable generator had to be delivered to the Coleman sewer station to keep things running smoothly; the other stations all have built-in generators. Mooney also asked residents to check drains and catch basins in front of their homes and clear leaves to keep rainwater from pooling on roads. About 1,800 residents on Port Moody’s north shore, as well as

some in Belcarra and Anmore, lost power. City spokesperson Leslyn Johnson said there were no trees that came down but recreation centre lights were out Tuesday morning. As well, eight elementary schools, one middle school and Dr. Charles Best secondary were without power Tuesday morning, although it was to be restored by noon. Parents were asked to make alternate arrangements for their children until the lights came back on. “It was a pretty good windstorm that rattled through here last night,” said David Jones of Environment Canada. Between Point Atkinson in West Vancouver and Abbotsford, winds gusted between 75 and 85 km/h. BC Hydro was estimating power would be back on throughout the Tri-Cities by about 1 p.m. Tuesday. spayne@tricitynews.com

he election of so many incumbents in Saturday’s civic elections suggests Tri-City voters were either happy with the status quo or hadn’t learned enough about challengers and simply chose names they knew on the ballot. In Coquitlam and Port Coquitlam, all but one council incumbent each were returned to office. In Port Moody, the three incumbents were re-elected to council, a sitting councillor was made mayor and three new faces filled the openings at the council table. But, then, Port Moody’s is the only one of the three city councils to experience a healthy turnover in the last 15 years. As for the board of education, all incumbents were returned to office, Coquitlam voters even re-electing longtime Trustee Gail Alty despite the fact she has called Vancouver Island home for two years. (She has said she can do the job via email and she commutes by ferry to a few meetings a month. If that’s all it takes, maybe there’s no need for a school board at all — but that’s another editorial.) But while having elected bodies full of experienced officials is good for continuity — especially with the Evergreen Line purportedly on its way — and long-serving incumbents deserve our thanks for plugging away year after year, there is always a danger of calcification when people stay too long. There may soon come a time — 2014 sounds right — when some of the old guard should step down and into a well-deserved retirement. No doubt many of these longerserving individuals believe they still have the passion for the job while others may have become too comfortable with the taxpayer-funded paycheques supplementing their own retirement income. Whichever is the case, organizations can become stagnant without turnover. Which is where voters come in. In order to get new blood on civic bodies, they need be engaged and informed. Voters: You have three years to pay attention and prepare to cast informed ballots. And to long-serving politicians: While you’re still in office, make the most of your time not to grind old axes or simply push your own points of view but to be leaders and change-makers by encouraging citizen involvement and mentoring the next generation of politicians who will lead us into the future.

Chilly climate for ambitious B.C. carbon plan BC VIEWS Tom Fletcher VICTORIA .C.’s carbon emission trading plan died last week at the age of four. No service was announced. The end came as the B.C. capital hosted politicians from neighbouring U.S. states and western Canadian provinces for their annual economic conference. Washington, Oregon, Montana, Utah, Arizona and New Mexico followed through with plans to withdraw from the Western Climate Initiative, leaving California, B.C. and, theoretically, Manitoba, Ontario and Quebec to come up with a trading system to put further costs on greenhouse gas emissions. Fossil fuel kingpins Alberta and Saskatchewan wanted nothing to do with the WCI from the beginning, when it set a goal of 15% reduction in emissions by 2020. This leaves B.C. as the only jurisdiction in North America with a carbon tax plus

an emission reduction target twice as ambitious – 33% by 2020. Because of that tax, all B.C.’s border states and provinces have an economic advantage for carbon-emitting industries. And with natural gas development booming and population growing, B.C.’s emissions continue upward. Industry representatives gave the legislature finance committee the view from ground level. Take farming: “None of our competitors have a carbon tax,” Garnet Etsell of the BC Agriculture Council told the committee. “This has cost us, to date, with the last increase, $45 million a year. With the increase that’s anticipated in 2012, that will be $65 million. Keep in mind that the agriculture industry last year had a cumulative net loss of $80 million.” B.C.’s biggest greenhouse gas emitters are the petroleum and cement-manufacturing industries. They only pay the tax on fuel while significant process emissions are taxexempt. But even that is stimulating demand for cement imported from outside B.C. This not only hurts domestic producers, it adds

TRI-CITY NEWS [CCAB AUDITED CIRCULATION 53,469 (MARCH 2009)] 1405 Broadway St., Port Coquitlam, B.C. V3C 6L6 telephone: 604-525-6397 • fax: 604-944-0703

emissions via trucking or rail shipping. Then there is B.C.’s “carbon-neutral public sector,” where provincial and local governments are forced to buy carbon offsets. The Pacific Carbon Trust then funds emission-reduction projects for big emitters such as gas plants in the northeast. So five years on, that’s the upshot of Gordon Campbell’s lofty goal to lead the world in climate action. We’re hurting our own agriculture and manufacturing, and transferring scarce funds from hospitals, seniors’ care homes and schools to subsidize profitable energy corporations. And emissions are still rising. It’s no wonder the finance committee has recommended major changes to Finance Minister Kevin Falcon. He should cap the carbon tax at the 2012 rate. He should “address the inequity for B.C. cement producers” and “consider immediate carbon tax exclusions for agriculture, including the greenhouse sector, and public institutions.” Falcon allowed last week that B.C.’s competitive position must be considered now that U.S.

President Barack Obama has reversed himself on the need for an emission trading system that would have levelled the North American playing field. Look for changes when Falcon tables his first budget in February. Does this mean B.C.’s climate strategy is dead? No. Delegates from U.S. states and Alberta gathered in front of the legislature to kick the tires on B.C.’s newest weapon, natural gas-powered vehicles. Garbage trucks, school buses and milk truck fleets have switched from diesel to natural gas, and thanks to LNG’s abundance and low price, they’re saving 50% on fuel bills. The trucks and buses eliminate particulate pollution and reduce carbon emissions by 30% compared to gasoline or diesel. Transportation Minister Blair Lekstrom says natural gas is being considered for BC Ferries, the largest public-sector emissions source of all, which is exempt from the carbon neutrality rule.

TRI-CITYY LETTERS Parents, nag your children

The Editor, I get concerned by children and teens walking in front of cars, especially during fall and winter. They don’t realize cars can’t stop as easily when it’s icy.

I encourage parents to nag, nag, nag your kids about road safety and explain how much harder it is for cars to stop for them at this time of year. Tell them to get eye contact with the driver who has

come to a full stop before walking in front of their vehicle. Just because it’s a crosswalk, it doesn’t mean the cars are going to be able to stop. Lisa Bunnage, Coquitlam

CBC crucial to Canada The Editor, Re. “Privatize CBC – it’s no big deal” (Face to Face, The Tri-City News, Nov. 18). Let’s quit kicking the CBC. It was established by a Conservative prime minister in 1936. It is threatened by an ideological prime minister 75 years later as well as by the Sun media chain, Quebecor and its public mouthpiece Ezra Levant. The great majority of Canadians actually support the CBC and Face to Face columnist Andy Radia’s reference to “a growing chorus of negative public opinion” is misinformation. Prime Minister Stephen Harper and Tri-City MP James Moore, Canada’s

heritage minister, bludgeon funding for the CBC while asking to it do more in order to justify Conservative party clams that it does not do enough, something akin to Mr. Radia’s misguided criticisms. In handing over internal funding documents to Parliament, the CBC crosses constitutional boundaries and becomes not a public broadcaster but the State broadcaster, thus losing its independence from the government, perhaps veering towards something closer to a Soviet Pravda. The real trouble with the CBC is that the Conservative party does not understand the word “culture.” It does not be-

lieve culture and sovereignty are linked. Take away culture and you have no sovereignty — in other words, no Canada. The prime minister is blind to this problem because he is, in effect, in denial, not understanding that he is undermining his own position as prime minister. Canadians have a responsibility to inform the PM that he is meddling with what is both his and ours. If I were prime minister, I would prefer a Canada with the CBC over having no country to call home. Joerge Dyrkton, Anmore

‘BEST CREATION’

The Editor, The CBC is more than

quality entertainment and a nation-wide voice. The CBC is also highquality investigation and research. The Fifth Estate has uncovered many issues that big business and government prefer the public not know. The Nature of Things has provoked much conversation that is necessary in a democratic society. Prime Minister Stephen Harper would prefer to rule without questions being raised. Private networks have no interest in standing up for the average Canadian. Long live Canada’s Best Creation. Michel Gendron, Port Coquitlam

Every 2 to 3 hours I would awaken and try to repostition, massage, use hot or cold packs to fall back to sleep. I sought the help of my Rheumatologist, but was told I would probably need to live with it. Finally I decided to start Laser Light Therapy. They focused on my neck and within a few treatments, my shoulders, my neck and right elbow stopped aching.

A city advisory committee made up of environmental experts that drafted Coquitlam’s first anti-pesticide use bylaw was to take another crack at the wording today (Wednesday). Last month, the engineering standing committee sent the document back to the sustainability and environmental group for reworking, saying it found “too many holes” with the proposed policy. Among the engineering committee’s concerns were: the lack of consistency with neighbouring municipalities (Port Coquitlam and Port Moody) on pesticide use; the timing to notify pesticide retailers about posting warning signs in their shops that chemicals can’t be used in the city; the validity of a permit system for homeowners and businesses to spray pesticides in emergency situations; and the lack of progressive fines for repeat violators. The advisory group’s recommendations are expected to return to the engineering committee in the new year. jwarren@tricitynews.com

Coquitlam residents face jail terms if their horses and livestock are on sidewalks. All male residents are to be charged a poll tax. Women are banned from taking out liquor licences. And children can’t be in pool halls or on Coquitlam streets late at night because of a city curfew. These and 35 other outdated and unenforceable municipal re gulations will soon be tossed out by city council in an effort to clean up Coquitlam’s massive bylaw catalogue. On Monday, council unanimously gave three readings to new consolidation and repeal bylaws, allowing the library to be more up-to-date and accurate. The 40 bylaws set to be thrown out date from 1912 to 1998, and some are no longer allowed under various laws, including the Community Charter, or are superseded by more current bylaws. The city’s bylaw library has 6,100 active, repealed or expired bylaws. In 2002, Library and Archives Canada granted money to the city to put them online but the project didn’t include weeding out the outdated ones, deputy city manager John Dumont wrote in his report.

A man accused of killing two woman and seriously injuring a man in a hit-and-run crash last winter in Coquitlam will have to wait more than a year before having his day in court. Cory Sater’s trial is set to begin on Feb. 7, 2013, close to two years after he was arrested on 10 counts of drivingrelated charges, including two counts of impaired driving causing death and one count of impaired driving causing bodily harm. The charges stem from a hit-andrun collision near the intersection of the Lougheed Highway and Pitt River Road in February of this year. Charlene Reaveley stopped to assist another motorist, Lorraine Cruz, who had been involved in a minor accident, when they were both struck by a passing vehicle. Reaveley and Cruz were killed and Cruz’s friend, Paulo Calimahin, was seriously injured. About two hours after the crash, police confiscated a white 1995 Jeep Cherokee, which was found abandoned in the Cape Horn area of Coquitlam. After publicly appealing for the

driver to come forward and turn himself in, police arrested Sater a day after the crash. Earlier this month Sater’s lawyer, Tony Serka, entered a plea of not guilty on his client’s behalf. A jury will not be involved in the trial after the defence elected to make its presentations before a judge alone.

Elaborately decorated Xmas trees are just one of attractions at annual Crossroads Hospice Society gala this Saturday By Diane Strandberg THE TRI-CITY NEWS

uests at the Crossroads Hospice Society Treasures of Christmas gala this Saturday will kick off their Christmas in style and maybe get some holiday decorating help, too, if they bid on eight specially decorated trees. Beautifully embellished with charming n a m e s a n d m at ch ing themes — such as the Jingle All the Way T ree, the Nouveau Champagne Classique Number and the Fairy’s Secret Garden Tree — the trees of people are certain to draw the served by eyes — and cash from Crossroads the pocketbooks — of gala guests. Hospice “They are always so last year gorgeously decorated,” said Shannon Milne, Crossroads’ special events co-ordinator, who said 19 volunteers spend months gathering decorations and items for the trees, which will be auctioned off to the highest bidders. When guests walk in to the Treasures of Christmas Gala at the Red Robinson Show Theatre at Coquitlam’s Boulevard Casino, they’ll be greeted by elves (actors with Theatrix Youtheatre Society) who will show them the features of the trees and the gifts that go with them. Winning bidders will get to take home the gifts and perhaps put them under their own tree at Christmas. “It’s the wow factor,” Milne said of the dazzling selection of decorated trees that make Treasures a signature Crossroads event. Winning bidders also get a gift certificate to purchase a tree at Art Knapp Plantland and Florist and, after the event, decorators will decorate that tree for a donation to Crossroads. Treasures has been an annual tradition for 18 years, with the festive trees symbolizing life and renewal — themes that the Crossroads Hospice has been promoting for years with its philosophy of compassionate end-of-life care. Executive director Barb Henham said the society’s aim is to provide care that values life until the moment it ends and those who volunteer, provide clinical and support services, and even Treasures guests themselves

Attendees at the 2010 Treasures of Christmas gala bid on decorated trees. The money from the auction as well as event and raffle tickets goes to the Crossroads Hospice Society, which provides end-of-life care. This year’s Treasures gala is set for Saturday, Nov. 26 at the Red Robinson Show Theatre. all subscribe to this philosophy. “It’s all about the living until the final breath, honouring dignity and providing comfort to loved ones and their families,” she said. Crossroads supports two major fundraisers each year, the Treasures of Christmas gala and the Hike for Hospice in May, and funds raised go pay for dozens of programs, from art and pet therapy to bereavement support throughout the Tri-Cities and New Westminster, including the hospice at Inlet Centre in Port Moody, which the society runs in partnership with Fraser Health. Many of those who attend the gala have been touched by Crossroads in some way, Henham said, and they want to give back to ensure the programs are there for themselves and their loved ones. While Crossroads’ objectives may seem contrary to the fun-loving spirit of Treasures, the two are intertwined because without the generosity of supporters, the life-affirming programs of the hospice could not continue.

“We know people understand that when they open their hearts to us,” Milne says.

YOUR CHANCE TO WIN

In addition to the festive trees, gala guests will also have the opportunity to bid on seven other prize packages, including an Okanagan Getaway and a Suite Sweet Deal, as well as silent auction items. Tickets are also being sold for two raffles; one has prizes ranging from Thrifty Foods gift cards to a seven-day Caribbean cruise, with tickets costing between $5 and $10; the other is the Tinsel raffle, with only 200 $25 tickets available for prizes that include a Movado hisand-hers watch set valued at $2,600. There will also be a festive dinner buffet, music by a local jazz ensemble and entertainment. The Nov. 26 event will be hosted by Global TV broadcasters Squire Barnes and Randene Neill. Tickets are $125 and available online at www.treasuresofchristmas.ca or by calling 604-945-0606. dstrandberg@tricitynews.com

A GOOD READ Jay Peters

Winter TiresCOMPL CO L T Tire COMP COMPLETE T re & Wheel Tir Whee Whe e

f late, I have been reading books that contain African characters or settings. I am gently telling myself to go to Africa and am escaping between the covers until I do. If you would like some armchair travel as well or just want to read some good books, try some of these. Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s Half of a Yellow Sun is set around the Biafra secession from Nigeria in the late 1960s. This engaging novel is a painless way to learn about the history of Biafra, something I had known nothing about before reading. The story is told through the lives of a handful of Igbo — the name for the people who seceded — centring around two sisters. The war resonated through the citizens’ lives and no class was spared. The title hints at both victory and defeat, and the novel won the Orange Prize for Fiction in 2007. Along the same lines, but leaner and in some ways deeper, is Aminatta Forna’s Memory of Love. This beautiful but painful novel is set in Sierra Leone during an ugly time in its history. Adrian Lockheart, a young British psychiatrist travels to Freetown in hopes of helping people to heal in the aftermath of its bloody civil war around the turn of the 20th century. He becomes friends with local surgeon Kai Mansaray and with a young woman. One of Lockheart’s patients is Elias Cole, whose salad days were in the 1960s and whose unscrupulous actions have lasting effects on the lives of others. This novel of interconnected love triangles won the Commonwealth Writer’s Prize this year. Cutting for Stone tells the story of twin boys Marion and Shiva Stone, children of an Indian nun who dies soon after their birth and a swaggering Brit who runs out on them. Written by Abraham Verghese, a surgeon who grew up in Ethiopia, this novel tells a powerful story about the lives of the twins. As they come of age, Ethiopia is nearing a revolution. They go on to become surgeons in Addis Ababa at the hospital in which they were born. There is both love and politics in this well-received first novel, which was named one of Amazon’s Best Books of 2009. Pigeon English by Stephen Kelman is set in a

gritty housing development in inner London. Its narrator is Harrison Opoku, an endearing 11-year-old immigrant from Ghana. He and a friend set out to solve the mystery of a boy’s death likely due to gang violence. This novel is both funny and sad. Harri is one of my favourite narrators, enthusiastic despite his grim surroundings. It reads aloud nicely and comes with a glossary to aid with the local slang. It was one of the Man Booker Prize nominees this year. The Sheltering Sky, written in 1949 by Paul Bowles, is one of my very favourite books. It is simply written but goes very deep. It tells the story of Port and Kit Moresby, an unhappily married couple who are travelling in hopes of rekindling their marriage. Misfortune strikes in northern Africa and adventures ensue in the Sahara. There is no formula to this book — you will not be able to guess where it goes as you read it. If you were to read only one book from this column, this is the one I would recommend the most highly. There are autobiographical elements to it — Paul Bowles knew Africa well as he and his wife Jane Bowles spent much time there — and it is among Time Magazine’s 100 Best English-language Novels from 1923 to 2005. If you are looking for more suggestions of what to read, check out the Coquitlam Library blog, I Was Told There’d be Cake, at iwastoldtheredbecake. wordpress.com. A Good Read is a column by Tri-City librarians that is published every Wednesday. Jay Peters is an information services librarian at Coquitlam Public Library.

Online commenting changes Q EDITORâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S NOTE: Tricitynews.com will soon join the trend away from anonymous comments on our site. Dec. 1, we switch to Facebookâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Commenting platform. An explanation: For the last few years, as tricitynews.com and other Black Press websites have garnered more attention, some readers have raised concerns about one issue in particular: the fact we allow visitors to post anonymous comments. The policy has led to some unpleasant and mean-spirited postings. It has also raised an inconsistency in our Black Press brand. Our community newspapers donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t print anonymous letters yet weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve allowed our websites to become a place where people can hide their identity while occasionally taking shots at one another. Starting Dec. 1, that policy will change. People will only be able to comment by using their

Facebook account, which means their name, often even their photograph, will be linked to the statements they post. Tricitynews.com is not alone in making this shift. Several media companies, including latimes.com, equally troubled by the vitriolic trend of anonymous comments, are turning to Facebook to power their website commenting. All Black Press newspaper websites in B.C., Alberta and Washington State will make the switch. Our sister publications that have already switched have continued to see spirited discourse among those who post comments, yet the discourse is at a much higher level and commentators are generally wellmannered and on-topic. This new approach wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be perfect. People without a Facebook account wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be able to participate in online discussions. Still, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re enthused to be in the vanguard of this movement. It shows weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re listening to our readers

and responding. It places us more deeply into the powerful world of social media: By using Facebook Comments, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re embracing a social medium with 800 million users worldwide. For those of you who choose not to create a Facebook account, remember we will continue to run letters to the editor in print â&#x20AC;&#x201D; you can submit them by emailing newsroom@tricitynews.com (and please make sure to include your name, home address and phone number). So please continue to be a part of the discussion. Your comments are part of an important dialogue that enlivens and enriches civic life in our communities.

The Matinée wins big in 3rd By Sarah Payne THE TRI-CITY NEWS

ometimes, third place can be a pretty good spot to land. Especially if it means winning $50,000 in the Performance Project, a prestigious professional development program sponsored by 100.5 FM The Peak. The top prize in the contest is $105,000, followed by $75,000 for second place. “We were gunning hard for first, but it’s hard to complain when you get a $50,000 cheque,” said Matthew Rose of The Matinée. Rose, along with fellow Coquitlam grads Matt Layzell, Pete Lemon, Geoff Petrie and brothers Mike and Dave Young and Port Coquitlam’s Garrett Kato, will be putting the money to good use. The Matinée was already planning to record a full-length record next year so the prize money will put a huge dent in those costs, Rose said. It will also help with travel costs for a week-long music-writing trip to the Gulf Islands, some shows in Toronto and plans to hit Austin, Texas for South by Southwest, an annual music and film conference. But the hefty cheque wasn’t the only highlight of making it to the end of the grueling Peak Performance

Project. The Matinée, along with fellow finalists Current Swell, which took first prize, and The Boom Booms, got to perform at the legendary Commodore Ballroom on Nov. 17. “Without a doubt, it was like a dream come true for all of us,” Rose said. “We’ve seen so many of our favourite bands there, we all have. And it was sold out with people who were there to see us — we weren’t playing there as the opening slot, thrown on before the headliner. “The support in the crowd was awesome, it was definitely an amazing experience.” And after the group woke up from a night of giddy celebrations they turned around to prepare for their performances at the BC Country Music Awards at the Red Robinson Show Theatre on the weekend. The Matinée was nominated for several awards, including Group/Duo of the Year, New Artist of the Year, Roots/Canadiana Band of the Year and Website of the Year. They perfor med at the industry awards Saturday and went back on stage for the main awards show Sunday. “Unfortunately we didn’t win any of the awards,” Rose said. “It hasn’t been a good week for winning for us,

Il Voce, a new “classical crossover” group, will perform at the Evergreen Cultural Centre Nov. 26.

Popera group Il Voce to sing at Evergreen Il Voce, the new kids in the “classical crossover” genre, are making their Coquitlam debut at the Evergreen Cultural Centre Nov. 26 at 8 p.m. The foursome of baritone DJ Calhoun, soprano Tiffany Desrosiers, tenor Marc Devigne and coloratura soprano Melody Mercredi came together as a group just last year but discovered an immediate connection. “We fell in love with each other’s voices, and knew it was going to be amazing,” Desrosiers said in a press release.

SD43 kids in MetFest Catch a night of great theatre entertainment when School District 43 puts on its annual one-act play festival, MetFest, from Nov. 28 to Dec. 2 at Heritage Woods secondary school. T h e f e s t iva l showcases the best work of drama students from each of the Tri-Cities’ high schools. There are dif ferent shows each night, followed by an adjudication by professional actor and director Michael Fera. The event is known for its consistently high quality of theatre, offering audiences plays in a wide range of genres, from highly creative experimental pieces to character-driven kitchensink dramas. Tickets are $5 per night and shows start at 7 p.m.

Each member boasts a successful solo career backed by a classically trained background. Devigne and Desrosiers are said to easily cross over from contemporary pop to the classics, while Mercredi and Calhoun have more traditional voice and opera training, and perform regularly with the Vancouver Opera. Il Voce follows in the “classical crossover” or “popera” footsteps of such legendary groups as Il Divo, Canadian Tenors, Amici Forever and Romanza, while still offering a unique interpretation

of a wide variety of music favourites. They are also one of the few groups with both male and female members, creating a more holistic sound. Among Il Voce’s repertoire are romantic classics as well as solo performances of songs like Leonard Cohen’s Hallelujah, Josh Groban’s February Song and Mercredi’s solo of Puccini’s aria O Mio Babbino Caro. • Tickets for Il Voce are $35/$30/$15/$10 and are available at 604-927-6555 or www.evergreenculturalcentre.ca.

Concert to benefit BC Children’s Hosp. By Janis Warren THE TRI-CITY NEWS

Expect to hear the sounds of Romantic composers this Saturday at a Port Coquitlam concert to benefit the BC Children’s Hospital and people with disabilities in need of financial aid. Fifteen young pianists studying with Coquitlam teacher Kyoung Hee Choi will tickle the ivories as part of the third annual Helpful Hands of Classic Piano Society recital at Terry Fox Theatre. Among the pieces to be perfor med are Beethoven’s Sonata in C-minor (Pathetique); Schubert’s Impromptu in E-flat major; Brahms’ Rhapsody in B-minor; Chopin’s Polonaise #3; and Saint-Saens’ Piano Concerto in G-minor. Choi said she and her students — aged

seven to 19 — look forward to the year-end show, which is sponsored again by Tom Lee Music, though many are nervous being on stage to display their talent. “I tell them to do the best that they can, to listen to the sound they make and not to worry to be perfect,” she said. “My students are so lovely. I may be strict with them during their lessons but they bring so much joy to my life.” Choi said she relies on her students to help her get around as her debilitating illness prevents her from even playing the piano. The rheumatism she has had for about 15 years has gnarled her hands so badly that she can only show her students basic technique. Her disability is compounded by poliomyelitis, which she contracted at eight months

Colorado Kid key in three Express wins

Turmoil tags Cats, moves on horizon By Larry Pruner

Team near first after Island sweep

THE TRI-CITY NEWS

Their hold-out goalie wants a trade. Other teams are craving the rights to their star defenceman who has yet to even play a Pacific Inter national Jr. ‘B’ hockey league game this season. And the Port Moody Black Panthers are mucking amid a four-game losing slide. So when his squad fell 7-2 Saturday to the loop’s top team, the Sockeyes, in Richmond, Cats general manager Ron Luniw considered it somewhat of a moral victory. “It was definitely a positive the way we played against them,” s a i d L u n i w, wh o s e team coughed up three powerplay goals and a shorthanded tally in the defeat to the 18-10-0 Sockeyes. “They got a good hockey club, no question, but [the powerplay] is where they get their strength from.” Luniw questioned some of the penalties against his squad, who trailed 3-0 early in the second period before Trevor Kang zipped in back-to-back goals 16 ticks apart to narrow the gap to one. Richmond responded by netting the game’s final four goals, including three in the third period, to turn a close contest into a blowout. “The score wasn’t indicative of the game,” said Luniw, who used affiliate player Bryce Phenix in goal while looking to move disgruntled starter Nick Taylor before the Dec. 1 deadline of 25 cards and/or players. “We’re working on a couple situations here to strengthen our side. Three teams are interested in [Taylor] now but I’m certainly going to [trade him] on my terms and not simply give him away.” As for the d-man Panichelli, he continues to be part of the BCHL’s Nanaimo Clippers despite being used sparingly by the Jr. ‘A’ squad, with his Jr. ‘B’ rights also being bandied about in trade talk. The 5-9-4-1 Cats, visit the Abbotsford Pilots on Friday before returning home to play the 7-7-3-0 North Delta Flyers on Saturday at PoMo Rec Complex, 7:45 p.m.

Thanks largely to the Colorado Kid, the Coquitlam Express rattled off three straight road wins last weekend to stay in the thick of the BCHL’s Coastal Conference race. Goalie Cole Huggins, a native of Englewood, Colo., blocked 137 of 141 shots as the Express beat the Power River Kings 5-3 Friday, the Alberni Valley Bulldogs 4-0 Saturday and the Nanaimo Clippers 5-3 Sunday in a trio of tilts on Vancouver Island. A training camp cast-off of the Langley Rivermen, the Express called Huggins at his U.S. home and offered him the opportunity HUGGINS to be a netminding tandem with incumbent Khaleed Devji. It looks as though Devji may have to re-earn his starter’s spot now. On Monday, Huggins was deservedly named the BCHL’s player of the week. “He was fantastic for us,” raved Express GM Darcy Rota. “All the kids played hard and [head coach] Jon [Calvano] is rolling over four lines nicely. It’s good to see.” The results improved the Express to 11-8-1-2 in sixth spot in the broom-closet tight conference –– only four points back of the first-place Surrey Eagles. The return of top gun Alex Kerfoot from his all-star showing for Canada West at the World Jr. ‘A’ Challenge in Langley has also been a boost for the Express, as has the recent trade acquisition of Taylor Bourne, who tallied three goals and three assists over the three-game stint. Against Powell River, the Express overcame an early 2-0 deficit by rifling in the game’s next four goals, all on the powerplay, including ones by Kerfoot and Bourne. In Port Alberni, Alex Petan assisted on all four Express goals and Huggins made 36 saves to snag the shutout. In Nanaimo, the Express jumped to a 4-1 firstperiod lead and hung on to make it a three-game Island sweep. ICING: The Express have a home-and-home series with Langley as part of the BCHL’s 50th anniversary weekend celebration, starting Friday at the Poirier Sports and Leisure Complex, 7 p.m.

Cents slip to STM By Larry Pruner THE TRI-CITY NEWS

St. Thomas More Knights turned two blocked punts and a fumble recovery into three scores Friday and, subsequently, turned out the lights on the Centennial Centaurs’ brilliant season. Clutch winners in three of their previous four games, the unheralded Cents squandered an 11point lead and dropped a 35-32 gut-puncher to the No. 1-ranked St. Thomas More Knights in a B.C. AAA senior high school football quarter-final playoff game at UBC’s Thunderbird Stadium. “I’m extremely proud of our players,” said Cents head coach Ryk Piche, whose team played the entire season without injured star tailback Jason Buren. “The way this team turned things around and came together the last four games... I’ve never been part of that. “It was something special.” The future looks extremely bright for Cents, who are returning 10 starters next season, Piche pointed out, including Grade 11 standouts Nathan Lund and Justin Buren. “We truly found a new identity in Centennial football,” Piche said.

Mustangs marvel When it comes to Grade 8 boys volleyball, it’s hard to beat the Minnekhada Mustangs –– year in, year out. The Mustangs marched to a remarkable third straight District A high school championship after recently beating Scott Creek middle school in two straight games. Scott Creek went on to capture the District B crown. Minnekhada’s Grade 7 boys v-ball team also captured the District championship, meaning next year could very well be a four-peat for the Mustangs at the

Grade 8 level. “I would have to say the success of the team has been building over time,” said Mustangs head coach Frank Lore, whose team compiled a 5-1 record going into playoffs, where they won eight games over two days to take the title. “Our coaches [including Phil Hughes and Tibor Budai] have been putting in a lot of time over their teaching careers and credit should also go to our PE program. A winning culture is being built and school pride is playing a role in our success, too.”

HOPE for the HOLIDAYS

with a Full Glass of Holiday Cheer! Big

Left to right: Gwen Ziprick & Jill Worrall - First Memorial Funeral Services Burkeview Chapel, Castine Breckwoldt - Crossroads Hospice and Pastor Anena Simpson - Riverside Community Church. The fast approaching Holiday Season is an exciting and wonderful time of the year for many of us. For some of us however, it can be a difficult and painful time. Some of us feel isolated, sad and overwhelmed with the pressure to be joyous, particularly following the loss of someone whom we loved. This year, Crossroads Hospice Society, Riverside Community Church and First Memorial Funeral Services Burkeview Chapel are very proud to host a community â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hope for the Holidaysâ&#x20AC;? event. We are coming together to provide a supportive, understanding and caring environment for the people in our communities who are having a difficult time embracing the season. We encourage people to bring a photo or memento of a loved one to place on the memorial table. We have some fantastic musical talent (Jillian Lebeck and Adam Robert Thomas) and some encouraging stories and reflections of hope and faith. There will be an ornament for everyone to take home, and a time of fellowship and refreshment to follow. This is a non denominational event and all persons are welcome.

Come join us on Tuesday, December 6th att 7:30 pm At Riverside Community Church 1477 Lougheed Highway, Port Coquitlam This is a completely free event, and the church is wheelchair and transit accessible

Wishing all our clients a Happy Holiday Season

Christmas will soon be with us, and maybe as you’ve been thinking about spoiling your loved ones you’ve been feeling that something is missing. What is the root cause of that feeling? Perhaps it’s that for many of us, Christmas is just a commercial holiday. We fling money around like it’s going out of style, stores are all about the profit, and we forget that the season used to be a celebration of love and wonder. But what can we do to underline this event in a different way? What if we did something completely different, such as a little extra something to soothe the heart, as much for ourselves as for the recipient? A humanitarian gift is PHOTO: THINKSTOCK a beautiful way to show and share our A humanitarian gift will do you good as well. values with our children.

The pleasures of Christmas often the simplest ones: decorating the tree, listening to Bing Crosby for the hundredth time, relaxing in front of the TV, sitting with the kids to watch classics such as The Grinch Who Stole Christmas and The Sound of Music. If you’re busy and find it tough to get into the spirit, consider pampering yourself a bit during this hectic time. Forego a costly shopping spree and put yourself into gourmet cocooning mode instead. Treat yourself to a good glass of port with dark chocolate or bring home a delicious pastry without worrying about calories for a change. You could also treat yourself to a magical moonlit outing on cross-country skis or to some skating on a lake. When snowflakes start to fall, why not organize a celebration of the first snow with the kids, rather than cursing winter while you shovel? Remember the happiness you felt with the first snowfall of your childhood? Remember making a snowman and snow angels, then coming inside afterwards, with cheeks aglow, to have a PHOTO: JOCHEN SAND / THINKSTOCK hot chocolate with marshmallows bobbing The simple joys of Christmas can be found right under around in the cup? What’s to stop you from our noses. experiencing those pleasures right now? Even though the era of 20-pound turping and cooking with a few friends; you can keys and dozens of cookies has pretty much pool recipes and talents. After all, the spirit of disappeared along with large families, there’s Christmas is all about sharing. Now who says no need to miss out on the tasty treats of that happiness can’t be found in the simple Christmas. Why not arrange some group shopthings of life?
