Turning alleys into interactive public art Art and design firm to transform laneway adjacent to Orpheum with sensors, light and sound
John Kurucz
jkurucz@vancourier.com
Alex Beim’s notion of high art doesn’t come with any of the pretenses around don’t touch, don’t participate or don’t photograph. In his world, participation is the essential element in making the artistic boat float. Such will be the case when he’s done with Ackery’s Alley, a laneway that sits adjacent to the Orpheum Theatre. Beim’s art and design firm, Tangible Interaction, is in the process of transforming the space into a live, interactive art installation complete with sensors, light and sound. Slated for completion towards the end of October, the concept is called “Field.” “I love the English language because of how much meaning you can put into a single word,” said Beim, who was born in Uruguay. “I love the idea of Field as a field of light, a place to work and play or a space where people can congregate.” Through 35 sensors and
Opened last fall, the Alley Oop project on Hastings Street between Granville and Seymour has seen a 200 per cent increase in foot traffic.
accompanying lights, the project will emit sound and light unique to a person’s height and movement in the alley. Beim’s firm is also behind the OH! project at Science World that sees users control the large dome’s
light through a miniature version nearby. Beim was brought on board to the project alongside the Downtown Vancouver Business Improvement Association and HCMA Architecture
+ Design under the banner More Awesome Now. The City of Vancouver has also tossed some grant money towards the group. More Awesome Now was also behind the Alley Oop project on Hastings
Street between Granville and Seymour. Opened last fall, the laneway was reimagined with paint, basketball hoops, hopscotch and patio furniture. HCMA principal Paul Fast said foot traffic in
the alley increased 200 per cent after Alley Oop’s completion. Out of that number, there was a further 50 per cent increase in the number of female pedestrians, an indicator Fast sees as a sign of increased safety. “We recognize that what our cities need from us these days is different than what our cities needed from us 10 or 20 years ago,” Fast said. “We need to start collaborating with more people outside of our discipline, we need to start thinking beyond the traditional boundaries of our practice and kind of reinvent ourselves.” Getting Field off the ground started with a Kickstarter campaign that surprised everyone involved. An initial goal of $35,000 was set and double that amount was raised in three weeks. Construction is expected to begin on Field at the beginning of September, with a tentative opening slated for October. @JohnKurucz

Seven traffic jams to avoid this Labour Day long weekend
John Kurucz
jkurucz@vancourier.com
If timing is, in fact, everything in life, the City of Vancouver may have missed the memo. Just in time to coincide with some of the busiest travel days of the year, the city has issued a memo noting a series of street closures, construction notices and film work heading into the long weekend. The highlighted hot spots are mostly in the downtown core. This weekend will see “significant filming” — as opposed to insignificant filming — that will require full road closures on Georgia (Pender to Seymour, 4 a.m. to 1 p.m.) and Hastings (Bute to Howe, 1 to 9 p.m.). The seemingly neverending saga that it is the Burrard Street Corridor Project will continue to test everyone’s patience over the Labour Day weekend. Motorists will be encouraged to use the Granville Street Bridge instead,
and follow directions on changeable message boards and public signage. Local access for residents will be maintained. In order to make this all happen, parking will be limited on a host of downtown arterials: Howe, Pender, Seymour and Thurlow streets. The city is asking all road users to plan their trips online via vancouver.ca/ roadwork or through VanConnect app. The full list of closures is as follows:
Burrard Street Corridor
Saturday, Sept. 2 to Sunday, Sept. 3: • Burrard and Pacific Street. Full closure of the Burrard and Pacific intersection, Pacific from Thurlow to Hornby, and Burrard Bridge (2 a.m. to 8 a.m.); followed by a northbound closure along Burrard Street from Cornwall to Drake (8 a.m. to 2 p.m.). Monday, Sept. 4: • Pacific Street from Burrard to Thurlow Street.
HAPPY LABOUR DAY!
Full road closure of Pacific Street from Burrard to Thurlow (7 a.m. to 2 p.m.).
Filming
Saturday, Sept. 2 • West Georgia from Pender to Seymour Street. Full road closure of West Georgia from Pender to Seymour (4 a.m. to 1 p.m.). • West Hastings from Bute to Howe Street. Full road closure of West Hastings from Bute to Howe (1 p.m. to 9 p.m.). Sunday, Sept. 3: • West Georgia from Pender to Seymour Street. Full road closure of West Georgia from Pender to Seymour (4 a.m. to 1 p.m.). • West Hastings from Bute to Howe Street. Full road closure of West Hastings from Bute to Howe (1 to 9 p.m.). Monday, Sept. 4 • West Hastings from Bute to Seymour Street. Full road closure of West Hastings from Bute to Howe (1 to 9 p.m.). @JohnKurucz

PUBLIC NOTICE
Annual Vegetation Management Program CN and other federally regulated railway companies are required to clear their rightsof-way from any vegetation that may pose a safety hazard. For example, Part II of the Rules Respecting Track Safety adopted by Transport Canada provide that “Vegetation on railway property which is on or immediately adjacent to roadbed must be controlled.” Vegetation on railway right-of-way, if left uncontrolled, can contribute to trackside fires and impair proper inspection of track infrastructure. As such, for safe railway operations, the annual vegetation control program will be carried out on CN rail lines in the Province of British Columbia. This program is necessary in order to eliminate brush, weeds and other undesirable vegetation, which constitute a hazard to the public and to CN employees and will be performed in conformity with current federal regulations, including Transport Canada’s Rules Respecting Track Safety. Wilderness Environmental Services (telephone 1-705-575-4805) will be applying herbicides on and around the railway tracks (mainly the graveled area (the ballast)). All applications will be done by certified applicators. All product requirements for setbacks in the vicinity of dwellings, aquatic environments and municipal water supplies will be met. This program will take place from August 25th to September 15th. 2017 and will include the following cities: Terrace, Vancouver, Kamloops, Lillooet, Prince Rupert, Prince George, Dawson Creek, Fort St. John, Fort Nelson, Tete Jeune, and MacKenzie.

News Green Party, OneCity name candidates ahead of October byelection John Kurucz
jkurucz@vancourier.com
The pool of political hopefuls is starting to round into form, as the Green Party has named its three candidates for the school board byelection in October. First elected in 2014, former Vancouver School Board trustee Janet Fraser is perhaps the most recognizable of the three names rolled out Saturday. Fraser is joined by first-time candidates Estrellita Gonzalez, a health and wellness consultant, and educator Judy Zaichkowsky. Pete Fry was acclaimed as the party’s council candidate earlier this month. “I am seeking the opportunity to once again serve Vancouver’s students,” Fraser said in a news release. “My commitment to students, hard work and integrity were evident during my two years as a trustee. I will use all my experience and expertise to work respectfully with trustees, stakeholders, staff, and the
provincial government to address the many challenges and opportunities facing our school district.” The byelection will return a democratically elected school board for the first time in a year, after the previous trustees were fired last October by thenEducation Minister Mike Bernier. The board was replaced by appointed trustee Dianne Turner, who will remain on staff with the school board in an advisory role after the byelection. Former Vision school board chair Mike Lombardi has said he is interested in running again for a school board position, while Patti Bacchus has opted out of returning to politics. OneCity’s nominees for school board include Carrie Bercic and Erica Jaaf. The school board byelection will be held Saturday, Oct. 14 in conjunction with the byelection to replace former Vision Vancouver Coun. Geoff Meggs, who now serves as Premier John Horgan’s chief of staff. The NPA’s council

hopefuls include former school trustee Penny Noble, Hector Bremner and Glen Chernen. The party hadn’t named its school board nominees by press deadlines on Aug. 29. NPA membership will vote on who will run on Sept. 6. Social-justice advocate Jean Swanson will run as an independent, while homeless advocate Judy Graves is the OneCity party’s nominee for council. COPE was expected to hold its nomination meeting Aug. 29 after the Courier’s print deadline. Cannabis advocate and former Wreck Beach staple Mary Jean Dunsdon — known locally as “Watermelon” or “the Weed Diva” — is running under the Sensible B.C. banner. Vision Vancouver candidates will be chosen through a selection process amongst its executive, rather than holding a nomination contest. The party says it will release its slate of candidates in the upcoming days. @JohnKurucz

Fascinating ‘blob’ colony found in Lost Lagoon
CROFTON MANOR
Martha Perkins
mperkinsaa@vancourier.com
A big blob of gooeyness is causing a lot of excitement in Stanley Park. Known in Latin as Pectinatella magnifica, it’s OK if you call the bryozoan found in a pond near Lost Lagoon by its less formal name — a “chunk of goo.” Or at least that’s how Kathleen Stormont of the Stanley Park Ecology Society describes the bryozoans that were discovered a couple of weeks ago in the biofiltration pond a few metres away from the causeway. “It’s kind of like threeday-old Jell-O — a bit firm but gelatinous,” she says. If you don’t want to be freaked out, think of it as a peeled giant lychee fruit that can grow to the size of a deflated basketball. For those who aren’t queasy, let your thoughts turn to what a brain or kidney might look like if they had evolved under water. Only one scientific journal mentions bryozoan found in B.C., and that was in the Gulf Islands. More recently, a bryozoan was chanced upon in Lake Okanagan. “They’re a colony of tiny organisms that like to hang out together,” Stormont says. “They have a very ancient lineage that hasn’t changed for hundreds of
This “chunk of goo,” otherwise known as a bryozoan, was discovered in Stanley Park’s Lost Lagoon. Watch a video at vancourier.com.
thousands of years.” A single organism on its own, however, is easy prey. Stick together and you’re not as likely to be eaten. “If you have a predator there’s safety in numbers,” she says. Someone “stumbled upon” a bryozoan in the pond during a recent 24hour Bio-Blitz, when a mass of amateur nature lovers helped a group of experts catalogue all manner of species living in the park. “We looked at things we don’t normally look at,” says Celina Starnes, the ecology society’s public education and outreach manager. Bryozoans are hard to spot because they are camouflaged in the murky water. Once one was noticed, however, the pond was found to be full of them. Starnes says bryozoans are fresh-water animals that are believed to have originated in the Mississippi.
They’ve been migrating westward ever since. The biofiltration pond is a perfect habitat for them. It was created a dozen years ago to filter the pollutants found in the runoff from the traffic-congested causeway before they hit Lost Lagoon. “What the bryozoans like is that there is little to no current and high nutrient levels,” she says. Another fun find during the Bio-Blitz was goblin moss. “It looks like any old moss until you turn the lights off,” Starnes says. “It has a green luminescence.” Stormont says the discovery of the bryozoan has been “a great education for us. There’s a lot of weird stuff in the wild and people don’t know it’s there.” The results from the Bio-Blast, which was part of the Canada 150 celebration, will be uploaded to the iNaturalist.org database.

Hazmat team called to Olympic Village townhouse
Jessica Kerr
jkerr@vancourier.com
Two officers were sent to hospital and the hazmat team was called in Monday afternoon after a search warrant executed at an Olympic Village townhouse turned up unknown substances. Vancouver police were executing the drug-related search warrant in the area of Columbia Street and First
Avenue just after 4 p.m. Department spokesperson Sgt. Jason Robillard said two of the officers felt light headed and went to the hospital as a precaution. They were later released and did not require any treatment. Vancouver Fire and Rescue’s hazmat response team was called into help with the investigation. “We don’t have any testing back yet at all but we
always want to make sure we err on the side of caution with any sort of powder substance or any type of unknown substance,” Robillard said. Officers and the hazmat team were back at the home, and had a portion of Columbia Street blocked off, Tuesday morning. With the proliferation of fentanyl, which can be dangerous in small amounts
even if it just makes contact with the skin, or is inhaled, officers must proceed with caution when investigating possible drug operations. “That’s why these things take time is because we have to put the brakes on and make sure we assess the scene properly… to make sure that we have all the precautions in place because we want to make sure we do it as safely as possible,”
Natural
Robillard said, adding that the department often works with RCMP, emergency health services and the fire department in these cases. In this case, surrounding residents did not have to be evacuated. One person was arrested Monday and charges are likely, Robillard said. “The investigation is still ongoing,” he said. “They’re gathering evidence as we
speak and this was a search warrant so there is evidence prior to this and it’s an ongoing investigation from our organized crime section.” Robillard said any resident who suspects a drug operation in their neighbourhood should call the department’s nonemergency line at 604717-3321, or call 911 if a crime is in progress. @JessicaEKerr

Division is a recipe for failure in Vancouver politics NPA would be wise to bone up on their Game of Thrones Mike Klassen
mike@mikeklassen.net
It has been a Vancouver summer for the ages with lots vying for our attention, including glorious sunsets, new Game of Thrones episodes, a new government formed in Victoria and, of course, the announcement of an Oct. 14 municipal byelection. Hardly a week goes by when I am asked about the chances of the Vancouver Non-Partisan Association ever ending Vision Vancouver’s stranglehold at city hall. This is in spite of me no longer being an NPA member or having attended any of their functions in years. My sense, however, is that after 10 years in power some Game of Thronesesque coalition building needs to take place soon. That is because “winter is coming” in the form of a general election next year. Instead of the Night King and the White Walkers of the TV series, the NPA will face the formidable Vision election machine.
Over the past 80 years, the NPA has governed the city more often than not. Its detractors are quick to point out the times the organization has imploded, typically as a result of splits within the caucus. Notwithstanding those challenges, NPA governments have put in place some of the most forwardlooking policies that have shaped our city, and made it among the most livable places on the planet. While many of its leaders have faded from memory, it is fair to say the NPA’s stamp on the city remains. NPA governments brought about the dense West End neighbourhood. They’ve also spurred environmental action through the Clouds of Change report, connected communities with Vancouver’s Greenways initiative, ensured public access to the waterfront around its perimetre, initiated the Four Pillars health program and partnered with the B.C. government on social housing. Unbound by ideology,
Winter is coming for the NPA in the form of a general election next year.
as a political force it is said the NPA has always been a vessel. It is really whatever those involved with the association make of it. When strong candidates who bring their own constituency and a passion for our city come forward, the NPA has served the city well. That is the NPA in prin-
ciple. But, in reality, just like all political organizations it can be like the Targaryens versus the Lannisters. Instead of coalescing around a leader and platform, it seems that several individuals within and outside the organization are attempting to define what the future of Vancouver’s free enter-
prise politics looks like. History will show that this is a recipe for failure. As former mayor Sam Sullivan recently stated in a public forum, “The reality in Vancouver politics is — split and you die. Maintain your cohesion and you win.” There is always some individual or group who talks about forming a new political organization. They point to Vision Vancouver’s success in overtaking COPE’s dominance of the left without understanding the context of how that happened. New parties have been established before recent elections, but none have elected a candidate. There are also those who cite the fact Carol Taylor won a council seat as an independent as proof you do not need the support of an elector organization. Taylor’s win as an independent was anomalous, aided by her federal Liberal connections and her high profile in media and politics. Elector organizations such as Vision Vancouver,
the Vancouver Greens or the NPA serve a useful purpose in that they give their membership a chance to screen the candidates before they wind up on a ballot. It is shown that getting voted onto a candidate slate is a process that every candidate with a credible chance of winning should put themselves through. On Sept. 6, the NPA is holding a meeting with its membership to choose its council and school board candidates for the October byelection. The candidate names coming forward indicate that the NPA brand remains intact. After the byelection the real test will be the contest for mayor. The NPA would be wise to welcome the best candidates the city has to offer, and let its members pick from the field. To use yet another Game of Thrones analogy, remember the words of Jon Snow: “There’s only one war that matters.” And it is the one for city hall in 2018. @MikeKlassen

Chicken feet served at the PNE don’t have toe nails
And other fun facts about the food served at this year’s Fair at the PNE
Sandra Thomas
sthomas@vancourier.com
The annual Fair at the PNE is famous for its wooden roller coaster, Prize Home Lottery, midway games and, of course, weird food. And the creators of those unusual food offerings are not afraid to up the ante every year when it comes to creating one-of-a-kind dishes you probably won’t find at too many places outside of the fair circuit. For those heading to the PNE this year, here are some tips you should know before tearing into that deep-fried chicken foot.
• The chicken feet don’t have toe nails: Chicky’s Chicken owner Scott Dennis told me during a previous interview that he has an employee whose job is to clip the nails off the chicken feet before they’re deep fried, dipped in batter and then deep fried again. Dennis says most people eat them plain, but some do go for a little ketchup or mustard. • Macaroni and cheese goes nicely on a hotdog: In celebration of their 60th year at the Fair at the PNE, the gang at Super Footlong created the Double Bacon Mac N’ Cheese Hotdog. The foot-long dog is
wrapped in bacon and deep fried before being topped with bacon macaroni and cheese — because bacon. • Sprinkles make life better: This year Steve O’s Public House is serving up the Waffle Taco. This culinary confection includes ice cream hand rolled and mixed with your favourite toppings (Oreos, Skors, strawberries, you get the idea) served in a taco shellshaped waffle cone, which is then topped with whipped cream and sprinkles. • For the first time the PNE has an authentic Dim Sum stand: Dim Sum Express is serving up bite-sized

portions of dumplings, pork buns and Shumai, just to name a few of the offerings. • The crickets on the cricket burgers and cricket fries don’t have legs: And that is a relief. These protein-packed insects are deep-fried and barbecued before being generously poured on top of hamburgers or French fries. They look and taste similar to sunflower seeds roasted with the shell on. I didn’t try the fries because they were covered in gravy and I was afraid that would make the crickets soggy. • Yes, you can serve gravy on top of a funnel cake: Speaking of gravy, in honour of Canada 150 the Funnel Cake stand at the PNE is serving a classic poutine, including cheese curds and gravy, served on a sweet Pennsylvania Dutch funnel cake. • Beavertails are even better with chocolate: As if deep-fried dough sprinkled with sugar and cinnamon needed any help, PNE Beavertail has topped their creations with everything from chocolate and banana, chocolate-hazelnut spread, peanut butter and Reese’s Pieces, and cookies and vanilla icing, just to name a few. • You can eat Jamaican-style fish and chips on an English-style double-decker bus: Double Decker Diner has put a Caribbean twist on an old favourite, though a delicious traditional version of fish and chips is also available. Bonus: You can take your food to the second floor of the open-air bus and enjoy your fish and chips while watching the world go by. @sthomas10 The PNE runs until Sept. 4. Details at pne.ca.

UNIVERSAL PHARMACARE:
A13
For unions, it just makes sense HASSAN YUSSUF, PRESIDENT OF THE CANADIAN LABOUR CONGRESS
There was a moment in Windsor, Ont., years ago that changed the way I look at prescription drug coverage forever. I was told about a worker who was hospitalized when his employer went bankrupt. Lying in his hospital bed, he was given notice that his health benefits would be terminated in 30 days. Just like that, he was plunged into a new insecure reality of being unable to afford the medications he needed. It’s the same reality 3.5 million
Canadians face today, thanks to our patchwork, ineffective prescription drug system. Here in British Columbia, an estimated 768,733 working people do not have employerbased health benefits. That means many B.C. residents are splitting pills, skipping days to stretch their prescriptions or not taking the medications they need at all due to the
unreasonable out-of-pocket costs.
Canada is the only developed country in the world with universal health care that does not include prescription drugs. Instead, our multi-payer system has resulted in the second highest prescription drug costs in the world, next to the United States. Working Canadians and their families feel the hit every single day.
Nobody should be forced to choose between paying for groceries and paying for their prescriptions. That’s why Canada’s unions are marking Labour Day with a campaign to win a universal drug plan for all Canadians. Unions have worked for better health care for decades because it’s an issue that affects all working people.
Unions were there in the 1960s as Tommy Douglas established Medicare in Saskatchewan and saw it expand to the rest of Canada. Ever since then, we’ve continued to push, not just for better health insurance coverage for our members, but better public coverage for everyone. CONTINUED ON PAGE 14

Canadians aren’t benefiting from the current system. The only ones who do benefit are pharmaceutical companies, which can charge higher prices for commonly-used drugs because they are selling to many buyers; and private insurance companies, which charge employers, unions and workers to administer private drug insurance plans. It just isn’t working — 8.4 million working Canadians don’t have prescription drug coverage. Those working in part-time, low-wage, precarious jobs are most affected, which means young workers and women are less likely to be covered. Even Canadians who do have coverage through work can have trouble due to ever-increasing co-payments and deductibles. This should be unacceptable in a country like Canada. In
our country, it’s supposed to be simple — if you’re sick, you should get treatment, regardless of where you live or how much you make. If you have a health card, you should have prescription drug coverage. Many other countries have already got it right. Look at New Zealand, where a public authority negotiates drug prices on behalf of the entire country — 100 per cent of their population is covered. There, a year’s supply of the anti-cholesterol drug Lipitor costs just $15 a year. In Canada it costs $811. It’s time for Canada to learn from other countries’ successes and join the 21st century by combining our population’s purchasing power under one plan. An annual investment of $1 billion by the federal government will mean Canadians save $7.3 billion a year on the medications they need.
Canadians already know this is the right move: a 2015 Angus Reid poll found 94 per cent of British Columbians believe our public health care system should include a universal prescription drug plan. Several national health care commissions have said the same, along with the Canadian Medical Association, Canadian Federation of Nurses Unions, Canadian Doctors for Medicare, the Federation of Canadian Municipalities and many more. This Labour Day, Canada’s unions are renewing our commitment to public health care by making pharmacare our top priority. We’re bringing together local unions and workers with health care advocates in communities across the country to launch our pharmacare campaign. Join us and together we can win a universal prescription drug plan for all Canadians, regardless of age, geography or income.

Vancouver Park Board unveiled the city’s newest, largest and most accessible playground last week. Measuring at more than 1,700 square metres, the new playground at Creekside Park, on Quebec Street adjacent to Science World, cost $900,000 to build. It includes a number of challenging, imaginative and natural play opportunities such as a climbing tower, giant tube slide, swings, a play hut with ramp, musical instruments, water and a sand play area. It has a blue and yellow rubberized surface, and is one of the few in the city with a zipline. It also includes more than 30 shade trees, seating, lawn and picnic areas. The playground is located in Creekside Park, a 2.53-hectare park next to Science World. In 2011, a nearby playground was removed to accommodate

the expansion of Science World and pedestrian and cycling path upgrades along the seawall. The park board manages 159 playgrounds across the city. Several have been identified for replacement, and city staff are working to prioritize the needs balancing operational resources for maintenance, financial resources and donations
available for the projects, and natural play and accessible features where they are needed most. Next up, a playground at Clark Park is expected to open this fall, while another playground at Douglas Park will open in mid-2018. The Andy Livingstone Park playground opened in March. @JessicaEKerr

Harvard grad established the Chinatown Foundation and bought three restaurants and other real estate in the storied neighbourhood to keep the cultural district alive, maintain the area’s charm and traditions and facilitate growth. Lee has also worked closely on several initiatives to secure senior housing in the Chinese precinct. CEO and co-founder of Linacare Cosmetherapy, Lee along with her sister Leslie and good friend Susan Chow, recently opened one of their very first acquisitions, Chinatown Vintage and Curios — a thrift shop on East Pender, across the street from Chinatown Barbecue, Lee’s first restaurant to open later this fall. Family and friends convened for the much anticipated store opening. Expect to find designer items and other trinkets donated by Lee’s society gal pals. Opening day saw shoppers shriek with joy on fabulous finds unearthed. Proceeds from the store will support the ongoing mission of the Vancouver Chinatown Foundation.
SIGN OF REBIRTH: The iconic Sai Woo sign came down in 1959 when the popular chop suey restaurant shuttered. After months of trying to find the original sign, Salli Pateman, owner of the new Sai Woo Restaurant on Pender Street, recreated and installed the popular neon sign thanks to a Kickstarter campaign. Donations of $18,000 helped bring the sign back to life. Perched high above Chinatown, the marker is another sign of the area’s revitalization. Pateman’s eatery is among a handful of landmarks returning to the old neighbourhood. They include the Jade Dynasty restaurant in the renovated Mah Society Building next door and Carol Lee’s Chinatown BBQ shop to open this fall, a few doors down from Pateman’s buzzy room serving modern Asian cuisine. DINER EN BLANC: A Parisian tradition for 29 years, Diner en Blanc has been embraced by Vancouverites. Now in its sixth year here, the outdoor pop-up picnic at a
Comedian and celebrity impersonator Tracey Bell sported one of the more unusual ensembles to Diner en Blanc.
secret location attracted 5,500 lucky individuals who made the list, with thousands clamoring to get in on the summertime fun. For the first time, Dîner en Blanc, produced by merrymakers Jordan Kallman and Tyson Villeneuve of the Social Concierge, took place at two locations. Coal Harbour’s Devonian Harbour Park and Harbour Green Park were this year’s party sites. Everyone who made the scene — revealed at the last minute — was decked out head to toe in white toting their food, tables and chairs. Similar to past iterations, the alfresco event kicked off with the ceremonial napkin wave and capped with revelers lighting up the night with sparklers. Over one third of this year’s participants were first-timers, according to Villeneuve, joining a cadre of veterans for Canada’s largest Dîner en Blanc celebrations. Seventy cities worldwide, including New York, Singapore and Moscow, now host the trendy dinner in white.

Folk band feels the T-Pain
John Kurucz
jkurucz@vancourier.com
Kim Mitchell and T-Pain meet ragtime and hot jazz. Those offbeat pairings of musical bedfellows are the byproduct of a new initiative rolled out by the Vancouverbased charity Music Heals. Introduced earlier this summer, Covers for the Cause involves fans requesting cover songs from artists. The artist takes on the project, records a video of the cover song and a donation is made to Music Heals, which supports music therapy programs across Canada. Picture it as the ultimate example of that guy at a show yelling “Play ‘Free Bird!’” except in this case, the band actually does it. The program has raised $18,000 in donations since its inception. In the case of Vancouver ex-pats Chicken-Like Birds, Covers for the Cause has forced them to stretch their sound. The two-piece ragtime/jazz group dabbles in 1920s and ’30s-era swing, jazz and blues, though their recent jump into the covers cavalcade has seen them perform tunes by Leonard Co-

hen, Flight of the Conchords and Stevie Ray Vaughan. It was after those first forays that things started to get weird, and soon enough Kim Mitchell and T-Pain were in the offing for band members Jasmin Lynn Frederickton and Ari Lantela. “One of the most ridiculous ones we’ve had so far has been Kim Mitchell’s ‘Patio Lanterns.’ It’s one of the cheesiest songs ever,” said Frederickton, who handles stand-up bass duties in the duo. “And then Ari made the mistake of saying he used to do a little bit of rapping back in the day, so he kind of invited the T-Pain cover.” The duo’s re-imagining of the timeless T-Pain classic “Buy U A Drank” isn’t steeped in Auto-Tune
or canned beats. Instead, it’s heavy on the synth and finger-picking. “It’s also ridiculous,” Lantela said. Having bounced around Western Canada for the last three years — they called Vancouver home from 2014 until late last year — the pair’s now based in Salmon Arm. It’s from there that the band embark on a Canadian tour that runs until Sept. 29. As cover requests come in, they’ll stop on the side of the road, in a campsite or in a park to record the jingle in question. “We like most things that swing,” Lantela said. “But we’ll take on pretty much any song.” Details at CoversForTheCause.com. @JohnKurucz

healthier school lunch UBC study finds that many school-aged children are not consuming enough healthy foods during school hours JESSICA KERR jkerr@vancourier.com With the first day of school just over a week away, thoughts are turning to reading, writing and... lunch? A recent UBC study, published in Applied Physiology, Nutrition and Metabolism, found that on school days children consume about one-third of their total daily calories at school. However, according to the findings, many are not getting the proper nutrition. “Before this study, nobody in Canada had looked at actual differences in dietary intake patterns between school
hours and non-school hours,” said lead author Claire Tugault-Lafleur, a PhD candidate in the university’s human nutrition program.“If we want to inform nutrition policies and dietary interventions for schools, we have to look not only at foods consumed at school, but also examine the contribution of these foods to a child’s daily dietary intake. Very few people are looking at that.” The study found that children’s consumption of fruit, vegetables and dairy
products or alternatives, was lower during school hours compared to the rest of the school day. Meanwhile, the intake of less nutritious foods, like sugar-sweetened beverages, salty snacks and candies, was relatively high during school hours — causing them to fall short of several dietary recommendations on school days. When it comes to kids and nutrition, starting early is the name of the game, says Vancouver-based dietician Cristina Sutter. “I think for the younger grades, we’re really establishing habits,” she said. A healthy diet is not only important for growing

bodies — burgeoning brains need good nutrition too. Eating a healthy, balanced diet helps with attention span, concentration and maintaining energy levels, Sutter said, all things that go hand-in-hand with learning. Sutter recommends sticking to whole foods as much as possible. “The granola bars in particular, I feel, are cookies in disguise,” she said, adding that there are many better options out there. Sutter recommends things such as cheese, fresh fruit or vegetables, hard boiled

Not all yogurts are created equal. Sutter recommends steering clear of the yogurt in tubes, which often has higher levels of sugar, and opting for a Greek yogurt, which has a bit more protein. She said even the flavoured varieties of Greek yogurt are a better option — plain yogurt can be a tough sell for many kids.
To cut down on prep when it comes to fruit and vegetables, Sutter recommends using the smaller versions — mini cucumbers, sugar snap peas, baby tomatoes and carrots, which don’t need to be chopped or peeled.

FREE EVENT FOR SENIORS PRIZES + GIVEAWAYS
The pies, glorious pies, on the tables of the Incredible Pie Championships were a taste to behold. Grandma Nancy’s looked crammed with an entire farm’s worth of berries while somebody said they wish there was more than one entry in the savory category so Spark’s decadent zucchini pie would win by talent and not default. The tasters — pie lovers who paid the admission to Sunday’s championships by donation — hovered around the chili lime peach pie with hopes nobody would notice their hand slipping through the crowd for a second or third helping. The 1950s Housewife Pie advertised itself as being a “hot mess” by 1 p.m., but it was unclear if that was because the late August sun roasted down on the tasting arena set up in the middle of Sixth Avenue between Manitoba and Ontario Streets, or because of its ingredients — jam, peanuts and bourbon. A wild card of ingredients made up the Incredible Pie Championship’s newest category called Mystery Box to join the Sweet, Savory, Sculptural and Vegan. Mystery Box was a grab bag of non-traditional pie ingredients that included chips, ginger candy, seaweed and tarragon — and was given to six pairs of brave bakers on Thursday. Despite the reality cooking show-inspired deadline, the list of ingredients didn’t faze bakers Leanne Yu and Birdie Hamilton — the creators of the Space Jam Pie. “We wanted to do a throwback and we’ve always wanted to make a Pop-Tart pie,” said Yu. “It plays on nostalgia… coming home after school and sitting down with your VHS Space Jam, drinking some Sunny D.”

The addition of sprinkles pushed the Space Jam Pie into dangerous cake territory, but it’s a gamble that paid off as the Yu and Hamilton’s pie won both Sculptural and Mystery Box categories. The blueberry and strawberry jams baked into the square cookie crust with the ginger candy lemon tarragon glaze really did give the dessert the taste of a super-deluxe Pop-Tart. “Pie takes a lot of work and dedication to get everything right,” said Yu. “With pie, you just have to let the oven do the work and however it turns out is however it turns out. Pie is more a celebration of nature’s bounty, particularly this time of year.” Others who also believe pie for breakfast is perfectly acceptable are the two women behind the Incredible Pie Eating Championship — Jenny Lee Craig and Caroline Ballhorn. The two artists joined creative forces about eight years ago with Tin Can Studio, the mobile art studio in the form of a rotund 1969 Streamline camper. The pie championship was one of the first collaborations eight years ago (it has run six of those eight years) and they have taken on other community and school engagement art projects. Craig has also
secured numerous Vancouver Foundation Neighbourhood small grants — one funded the purchase of the Mystery Box ingredients — such as beehive-building projects and canning collectives in her Sixth Avenue neighbourhood where remnants of old Vancouver still exist. Aging character homes still stand next to polished head offices of local companies, next to 50-year-old low-rise office buildings. “We do a lot of things to keep our neighbourhood feel even though we are in this funny zone of business,” said Craig. As Craig and Ballhorn disappeared into the Tin Can Studio to count the tasters’ ballots for the 20 pie creations that saw Joyce Ng win Best in Show for her strawberry balsamic black pepper number, the tasting arena transformed into a neighbourhood picnic. Once the pie kings and queens were crowned, the block party morphed into SIX FEST with bands playing on the porch of Craig’s home and the people partied into the night, bellies full with pie and salad — in that order.

A SUMMER SIGNING BONUS♦
most successful EV around the world, is due for its next generation. Details are leaking out, including pricing, which shows that the base car will come in at less than $30,000 US. Add in rebates, and you’re looking at a machine that’s low on hype, but delivers as a clean commuter. With 147 horsepower, 236 foot-pounds of torque, and a 40-kilowatt battery, the Leaf is going to have modest performance. However, it’s an improvement over the old model, and should work for anyone whose commute is confined to the Lower Mainland. Will it be exciting? Will Elon be there to hand over the keys himself while fireworks explode? No. It’s just going to be a simple little car that will get you to and from work without fuss, for not too much money. This, plus a classic Miata for the weekend, sounds like a great realworld fantasy garage for people who care more about driving than what the neighbours think.
Mazda makes an engine breakthrough
Meanwhile, over at Mazda where things are almost too rational,
engineers working on the venerable old combustion engine have made a breakthrough. Their technology combines the efficiency of a diesel with the ubiquity and affordability of a gasoline-powered car. Here’s how it works. At low engine loads, Mazda’s new engines will run without firing the sparkplug, just as a diesel engine does. Combustion occurs as a result of the pressure in the combustion chamber, which has the effect of harnessing more of the fuel’s potential. Mazda claims a 20 to 30 per cent increase in fuel economy. That’s huge, especially as it means Mazda isn’t relying on smaller turbocharged engines, which often do well in laboratory testing, but suck gas in the real world. In comparison, Mazda’s current engines consistently perform on the road. Another reason the move is important is that it provides the European market with a replacement for diesel, which currently has soot all over its face. Combined with a brand new partnership with giant Toyota, and little Mazda looks like they’ve managed to pull off the coup they need to weather the uncertain future.
