Tolls down to attract drivers Monthly pass and other incentives are also offered By Jeff Nagel BLACK PRESS
Drivers crossing the new Port Mann Bridge will pay $1.50 a trip — half the price previously announced — as an introductory toll, and the provincial government is dangling more incentives to encourage users to sign up early. The cut rate applies for the first three months — until the end of February — but those who register for a tolling account by then will be guaranteed the half-price toll for the first year, Transportation Minister Mary Polak announced Wednesday. And those who sign up by Nov. 30 also get a $30 credit, equivalent to 20 free crossings. A fur-

The new Port Mann Bridge (shown here under construction next to the old bridge) will soon have three eastbound lanes open — and reduced tolls for up to a year. ther 25% discount previously promised for registered HOV lane users during peak hours will apply on top of the introductory rate, meaning commuters who car pool will pay $1.13 per crossing for the first year. Frequent bridge users can also opt for an unlimited pass — $75 per month for standard vehicles that register early. The introductory discount is being justified
on the basis that only eight of 10 lanes of the new bridge will be operational when it opens in December, as the final two can’t be used through 2013 while the old bridge is being dismantled. “ We c o n c l u d e d we could and should sharpen our pencils on the initial toll rate,” Polak said. see TARGET: 80%, page A12

PoMo council awards contract for $6.9M fire hall New fire hall will have a green roof atop a canopy By Sarah Payne ThE Tri-CiTy NEws
Port Moody’s new Inlet Centre Fire Hall
will be built in an environmentally sensitive area but compensation plans mean there will be no adverse effects on the natural habitat, according to a city staff report. At Tuesday’s meeting, council considered the environmentally sensitive area (ESA) develop-
ment permit application, which notes that construction of the fire hall will be in areas deemed to be of high and medium sensitivity. The work is expected to cause “harmful alteration, disruption or destruction” of fish habitat — a small Suter Brook
tributary — requiring Fisheries and Oceans Canada approval. A fish habitat compensation plan, including an off-channel pond designed to enhance existing wetlands and improve access for fish and amphibians, is expected to result in an overall net
gain of about 61 sq. m. (657 sq. ft.) of fish habitat. A builder has also been announced for the project. Kinetic Construction had the winning bid for building the fire hall, at just over $6.9 million. Fo u r o t h e r b i d s
ranged from $7.1 million to almost $7.7 million. The bids included optional pricing for a green roof, and Kinetic’s $6.9-million plan includes $36,000 for such a roof on top of the canopy at the south end of the building. (The highest bid for the green roof
was EllisDon’s $70,000.) Residents living near the fire hall can expect the large pile of sand facing Ioco Road to be moved by the end of the month (it will be used elsewhere on site) and for pile-driving to start shortly. spayne@tricitynews.com
Practice, practice, practice in Moody A side benefit of coming Evergreen work is buildings are available for fire training By Gary McKenna ThE Tri-CiTy NEws
B
eing a firefighter isn’t just about running into burning buildings and saving people’s lives. Port Moody Fire Chief Remo Faedo said the majority of firefighters’ time is spent training, which is why the department was grateful that the Ministry of Transportation has allowed emergency officials to practise in a vacant building set to be demolished to make way for the Evergreen Line. Fo r t h e l a s t f ew months, crews have been conducting drills at 2710 Clarke St., allowing them to work on everything from being in a confined space with limited visibility to simulated rescues of firefighters who have fallen through a floor. “Training is very important in our business,” Faedo said. “Port Moody is small. We don’t get a lot of calls but we have to maintain our skills.” U s u a l l y, Port Moody’s firefighters have to travel to the Justice Institute in New Westminster or Maple Ridge, which has a live burn building. But with a new livefire exercise facility in Port Coquitlam, Faedo said his crews are looking forward to having another training ground closer to home. For David Friesen, Port Moody’s training officer, the Clarke Street facility has given the department’s crews an opportunity to gain more experience, particularly in techniques related to rescuing firefighters who have become trapped in structures. With the training building, Friesen is able to conduct simulated rescues of a firefighter who has fallen through the floor. To carry out the drill, he has cut a hole from the first to the second level, giving fire-

sign up for emergency prep courses in PoCo fighters an opportunity to practise using a hose to rappel to their fallen colleagues and pull them to safety. “The use of this training facility is incredible,” he said. “The more practice we have, the more times we do it, the better
we become.” As Evergreen Line construction moves along, Friesen said there may be opportunities for firefighters to use other vacant buildings in the area for training purposes. gmckenna@tricitynews.com
Port Coquitlam residents and others looking to learn more about what to do during a major disaster are being offered free emergency preparedness courses this fall. If an earthquake, flood or severe storm hit the Lower Mainland, the city believes that services
could be unavailable for at least 72 hours. The emergency preparedness training course gives residents the opportunity to learn what they can do to fend for themselves in the days following a serious disaster. Lessons cover personal preparedness, basic fire suppression,
rapid damage assessment and light urban search and rescue. Registration is being accepted for free courses on Sept. 22 and Nov. 24. The lessons will take place between 9 a.m. and 2 p.m. at No. 1 Fire Hall (1725 Broadway St.). Participants must be over the age of
16 and priority will be given to residents of Port Coquitlam. Refreshments will be provided and comfortable clothing is recommended. For more information about the courses, go to www.portcoquitlam.ca/ep or call 604-927-5466. gmckenna@tricitynews.com

Where’s it going? Notice of 2012 Tax Sale Costs piling up to save, use an old house in PoMo
BOOZE LICENCES
By Sarah Payne The Tri-CiTy News
A hasty decision to save the Appleyard house from the Evergreen Line’s wrecking ball is proving to be a bit of a quagmire for Port Moody council. At Tuesday’s meeting the official community plan and zoning bylaw amendments were carried, with objections from councillors Diana Dilworth and Bob Elliott, while Appleyard’s new neighbours took issue with plans for its possible location. A fellow neighbour said he didn’t want to see a cafe in the house, while David Spence cried foul over it being called Centennial House. And a lengthy debate over a grant application to pay for all the renovations needed to turn Appleyard from a pizza house into an arts facility could mean taxpayers will be on the hook for nearly a million dollars. “I have a real problem with the process and I have a real problem with the financial commitment this will tie us to,” Dilworth said, adding the entire concept of a second arts facility has gone from “good idea” to a nearly million-dollar commitment too fast and with little public feedback. Mayor Mike Clay offered cautious support but expressed his con-
In accordance with Section 403, 404 and 405 of the Local Government Act and Section 254 of the Community Charter, the 2012 Annual Tax Sale will be held in the Council Chambers of the
Port Moody is opting out of the review process for two liquor licence applications. Dugandzic Damir, the owner of the Burrard Public House, wants to extend his establishment’s opening hours to 9 a.m. each day. The St. Johns Street pub is currently open from 11 a.m. Sunday to Wednesday and from noon Thursday through Saturday. Damir said the change would mean he can open earlier for brunch on Sundays and allow him to serve alcohol for the occasional earlymorning televised soccer game. Chapandaz Restaurant, also on St. Johns, wants an amendment to its liquor licence allow belly dancers to perform in the evenings. Both restaurants will still have to undergo a public consultation as part of the Liquor Control and Licensing Branch review process.
cern over the sudden jump in costs. At the time the Appleyard house was moved in July, the city committed $330,000 for its conversion to an arts facility. The grant application is for a matching grant of nearly $481,000, with another $100,000 in potential extras. If successful, the grant would also commit the city to a 10-year operating contract estimated at $84,000 annually (of which $65,000 is for a front-desk staff role). Coun. Gerry Nuttall told The Tri-City News Wednesday the city would likely only receive half the amount requested. And while Coun. Rick Glumac suggested the grant would be a “winwin” solution for adding space to the crowded Port Moody Arts Centre and preserving an important heritage home, Dilworth noted there are other options for saving the home,

such as a commercial lease, that would also be revenue generators. Clay later withdrew his support for the draft application after hearing it would likely go through several changes before being submitted to the Heritage Legacy fund by the Sept. 30 deadline. The application was eventually endorsed (with Coun. Rosemary Small, Dilworth and Clay voting against) and the OCP and zoning amendments passed (with Dilworth and Elliott voting against). As for where it will go on the property at 126 Kyle St. — a location Coun. Elliott would like to see changed to a spot directly beside the Kyle Centre — senior project planner James Chandler said council likely won’t be considering that until after they get word on the grant, sometime in early 2013. spayne@tricitynews.com

Burnaby RCMP is asking the public’s assistance to help locate a prolific offender believed to be active in Burnaby and Coquitlam. Dallas Campbell Yurko was on parole for property crime offences when he violated conditions of his parole, according to a press release from the Mounties. He subsequently failed to appear in court and warrants were issued for his arrest. The RCMP’s Prolific Offender Suppression Team believes Yurko is responsible for several property crimes recently carried out in Burnaby. The 33-year-old is known to be violent and has been found carrying weapons in the past. If he is spotted, members of the public should not approach the man but should notify police immediately. Yurko is described as being 5’10” tall and weighing approximately 140 lb. He has brown eyes and short brown or dirty blond hair; occasionally, he has facial hair. Anyone with any information should contact Burnaby RCMP at 604-294-7922.

ALPHA COURSE Block Watch demand in PM THE The meaning of life is ______________. By Sarah Payne The Tri-CiTy News
Port Moody Police are looking for a few good neighbours to take on the Block Watch captain mantle. Since a rash of three suspected gangland shootings in the city, the PMPD has been getting a number of calls from residents wanting to start a Block Watch program in their neighbourhood, said Const. Luke van Winkel. “Community involvement and interaction, whether it’s in a highrise tower or a cul-de-sac... needs to be the way we solve crime,”he said. The program had been fairly dormant, van Winkel said, until the sudden spike in homicides (before

On Saturday morning, a 32-year-old Glenayre resident, Joseph Markel, was gunned down at his home. In June Randy Naicker, 34, was shot in broad daylight in the Queens Street plaza parking lot; just a week earlier 35-year-old Bin
Toor was shot in the recreation centre parking lot. All three are believed to be targeted gang shootings. Block Watch captains are responsible for connecting with neighbours in a certain area (the size depends on the neighbourhood) and communicating information and updates from police, mainly
through an email list but also by phone for seniors or those without internet access. Captains must also go through a criminal record check to ensure neighbours feel safe sharing information and interacting with them. Van Winkel said captains are expected to be vigilant in looking out for their neighbours and to know what’s going on in their area. Neighbourhoods that join Block Watch receive information on crime trends happening in their area and throughout the city. Homeowners in a Block Watch area may also qualify for discounts on their home insurance. • For more information, email lvanwinkel@portmoodypolice.com. spayne@tricitynews.com

S
chool District 43 is embarking on an ambitious plan to sell off land assets to raise money for new schools. Starting with a small pilot project this fall, the district is beginning a public consultation process to gauge public sentiment for selling off a strip of land from each of Parkland and Porter Street elementary schools. According to the district, the parcels could accommodate 17 lots for single-family homes but city and public approval would be required for the properties to be sold. The money potentially raised — about $4 million after processing and servicing costs — would be used for capital projects, mostly in Coquitlam, including helping fund schools in Burke Mountain. Now, neighbourhoods are notoriously protective of their school properties and any new housing would have be a good fit for the area. But by starting out small, the district is taking a cautious approach to what appears to be a good plan.

From Coquitlam to Kathmandu for Lee AS I SEE IT Tanya Lee Tanya Lee, 26, grew up in Coquitlam, where she attended Hillcrest middle school and Centennial secondary, and where her family still lives. She’ll be contributing a column to The Tri-City News about her work with a human rights NGO (she also blogs at goneadventurin.wordpress.com). fter graduation, many of us experience a moment of panic. Old goals having been achieved and we realize that we are now directionless. We jump on any bandwagon that promises to hold grownup life at bay, sometimes to the point of deciding “Why, yes, I WILL go to Tijuana for a YMCA youth conference. Why not?” One trip through the red light district at 11 a.m., one glimpse of migrant girls and women on display like chattel and everything changed for me.

The scent of modern-day slavery flooded my senses and my post-graduation blues exploded in a — POOF. I had found my mission. How do you define trafficking? It ultimately comes down to exploitation. Human trafficking can occur across borders or within nations, and along with the use of force or coercion, the United Nations Protocol to Prevent, Suppress and Punish Trafficking in Persons recognizes that exploitation can occur via fraud or deception, the abuse of a position of power or by capitalizing on an individual’s vulnerability. The International Labour Organization has recently estimated that 4.5 million people are currently enduring forced sexual exploitation, 21% of whom are children. Growing up on Coquitlam’s soccer fields and baseball diamonds, the realities of gender inequality had never truly set in until that moment. Upon return, I found that my rusty, old Canadian-based goals had lost their salience. I returned to Tijuana to work with migrant youth and applied for graduate studies in International Planning and Development at

the University of Guelph. Did my program look at human trafficking? Well, no… But when it came time for me to conduct my research, I canvassed anti-trafficking agencies. Lady luck in my favour, Made By Survivors responded, a non-governmental organization (NGO) that helps women in India who have survived human trafficking to become artisans, training them in the art of silversmithing and jewelry making. A few months later, I was dodging rickshaws and cows on the sweaty streets of Kolkata. In India, I met with young women who had been forced into child marriages or domestic servitude, or who had survived forced prostitution. Not all of the girls were Indian; some had been trafficked into India from Bangladesh or Nepal. Several of the girls who had endured commercial sexual exploitation had come from large families and had been sold into the sex trade by their parents. These goofy, saucy, artistic girls taught me the true meaning of resilience. They welcomed me into their volleyball games and
jewelry sanding circles, hennaed my hands and even braided my hair. Of course, being only 5” 1’ tall, the girls assumed that I, like them, was in my teens. While an Indian staff member close to my age was Didi, a respectful term meaning elder sister, they hailed me with “Sister, sister!” Needless to say, it was heart-wrenchingly difficult to leave them. After returning to Canada to finish my master’s, I spent several months looking for work in the anti-trafficking field. I am ecstatic to report that I have been accepted as an intern with Human Rights Internet, which receives funding from the Canadian International Development Agency to administer human rights-based internships for Canadian graduates. This fall, I am returning to south Asia to work with the Women’s Rehabilitation Centre in Kathmandu, Nepal. I will have five months to continue learning about human trafficking, hopefully while standing picturesquely in Mount Everest’s shadow, with a momo (famous Nepali dumpling) in hand.

FACE TO FACE: Is the jury really out on whether climate change is man-made?
There’s room for skeptics’ doubts W
e’ve just had one the hottest summers on record and already environmentalists are using that information as ammunition against cars, oil and anything that leads to economic growth. To be clear, I’m not a climate change denier. And I’m not denying that human beings may have something to do with warming temperatures. What I am saying is let’s have a grown-up debate about it without hurling insults, like “anti-science Ignoramus,” at anyone who disagrees with the concept of manmade climate change. So, let’s look at the science. Indisputably, since the beginning of time, the Earth has been warming and cooling (see the Ice Age). Geologist Don Easterbrook recently told the Sun News Network that temperature oscillations are nothing new and, during periods over the past 10,000 years, the Earth has been much warmer than it is today. Temperature changes are a result of solar change “related to the sun’s magnetic field,” he said. Interestingly, findings like professor Easterbrook’s are often ignored by the mainstream media. Let’s also look at other planets. NASA scientists say that climate

change is occurring even on the red planet. “[The residual cap at Mars’ south pole] is evaporating right now at a prodigious rate,” Michael Malin, principal investigator for the Mars Orbiter Camera, told Astronomy Magazine in 2005.“The significance of this is that Mars is experiencing climate change… Why is Mars warmer today than it was in the past? We really have no way of knowing.” Are we going to blame humans for that as well? I often wonder if the proliferation of weather “news” contributes to the climate change hysteria. People are always saying crime isn’t increasing but that it feels that way because of all the media attention. Couldn’t the same be true for the weather? We now have a 24-hour weather television station, media outlets like CKNW that have their weather guru on every 15 minutes and most of us have weather apps on our smartphones. Twenty years ago, did anybody pay that much attention? I’ll admit that I’m not a scientist but I think there’s enough reasonable doubt about the driver of climate change. And until that reasonable doubt is gone, you can call me a skeptic — not an ignoramus but a skeptic.

is a scientific hoax, a scare tactic dreamed up by environmentalists to frighten us into supporting antibusiness laws and regulations. I agree that there is a conspiracy to misrepresent the facts about climate change but 2,500 environmental scientists from 130 countries aren’t in on it. Exxon Mobil is. Since 1998, Exxon has doled out $22,123,456 to climate change-denying groups. The Heritage Foundation ($730,000), Frontiers of Freedom, ($1.2 million) and 40 other groups received money from Exxon to help deny climate change. Even B.C.’s Fraser Institute has bagged $120,000 from Exxon since 1998. Exxon is using the same tactic the tobacco industry used a few years ago. Remember when Phillip Morris spent millions to encourage groups to deny smoking causes lung cancer? Today, those who deny smoking causes cancer have been silenced by the Supreme Court and an irrefutable body of scientific research. But the scientific consensus that human activity causes global warming is deeper and more unanimous than the scientific connection between smoking and cancer. Thus, it’s likely that history will judge that denying global warming is more ridiculous than denying that smoking causes cancer.

here were times this summer when I thought I didn’t need science to tell me global warming is real: sweating in my seat at Theatre Under the Stars, watching the frightening heat waves in the east and avoiding golf because it was too hot. But luckily, most of us base our conclusions about global warming not on anecdotes about extreme summer weather but on scientific research and consensus. But not my colleague, who, thanks partly to Exxon Mobil, is one of a group of environmental deniers not swayed by the overwhelming scientific consensus about climate change. Deniers don’t believe the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change; the internationally mandated IPCC, which has, over the last 10 years, compiled four scientific reports based on the work of 2,500 scientists from 130 countries. Each IPCC report warns of the dangers of global warming caused by manmade greenhouse gases. And deniers don’t believe the body of literature in scientific journals, which, over the past decade, contained 928 articles on global warming, none of which included a scientific denial that man is hastening global warming. Climate change-denying groups are convinced that global warming

Target: 80% registered continued from front page “Drivers shouldn’t have to pay the full toll until they get the full time savings.” Drivers who register get a free windshield decal that acts as a transponder that’s detected by the electronic tolling system. Provincial officials say registered accounts set up for automatic monthly payment mean less money will be spent mailing out invoices to non-registered users who are detected by licence plate cameras. The cameras aren’t completely accurate either, so some revenue is lost that way. Tr a n s p o r t a t i o n Investment Corp. CEO Mike Proudfoot said the aim is get 80% of bridge users registered, instead of the industry standard of about 60%, and the extra efficiency would cover the cost of the reduced firstyear rates. Another reason for the break is construction on parts of the Highway 1 corridor will also continue next year, as will work on the South Fraser Perimeter Road (SFPR). The northeast section of the SFPR in Surrey will open by December, carrying motorists who don’t want to pay tolls on the Port Mann Bridge to the free Pattullo Bridge. Construction on the rest of the perimeter road will continue until late 2013, when it will also open up a free alternate
WHAT ABOUT rOAd pricing?
A one-year break on tolls for the new Port Mann Bridge hasn’t stopped calls for a reformed system of tolls in Metro Vancouver that would also refinance TransLink. “Let’s look at what’s fair and equitable and shares the load in the region,” said Langley City Mayor Peter Fassbender. “We have to look at road pricing,” he said, referring to an idea pushed by multiple mayors to charge small amounts not just at all crossings, but for any significant trip on Metro’s roads. He said the province’s offer of a monthly unlimited pass for the Port Mann Bridge could be extended region-wide so that no motorist pays more than a certain maximum amount under a road pricing scheme. “You have to be putting some fairness and equity right across the region,” Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts said, repeating her call for a “fair tolling” system and added the discounts give a “window of opportunity” to have that debate. Watts noted the Pattullo Bridge and Massey Tunnel need to be replaced and TransLink needs to expand rapid transit in the region. Transportation Minister Mary Polak said she’s willing to listen to the mayors but said they need to consult with their communities to see if there’s public support for road pricing. NDP transportation critic Harry Bains said his party has no policy yet that would allow road pricing and said he is cautious on the idea. “You’d better have a very convincing study done with evidence,” he said. jnagel@blackpress.ca route to the Alex Fraser Bridge and Massey Tunnel. Heavy trucks won’t get any introductory break on the previously announced $9 tolls for the Port Mann, but they will pay half price if they cross at night between 9 p.m. and 5 a.m. Lighter trucks or cars pulling trailers will pay $4.50 in the introductory
period, instead of $6, and they’ll be offered a $225 unlimited monthly pass. Motorcyclists will pay $1 at first instead of $1.50 and have the option of a $50 monthly pass. Drivers who don’t register before March will pay the full tolls ($3 for standard vehicles), which are set to kick in for all users
in December of 2013. Unregistered drivers who don’t pre-pay or pay within seven days of crossing will be invoiced and charged a $2.30 processing fee, which will be waived for the first three months. The electronic tolling system is to operate seamlessly with the one on TransLink’s Golden Ears Bridge, and the two bridges will move to a common payment system early next year. The province says the new bridge will chop commute times in half and save commuters up to an hour a day. The $3.3-billion infrastructure project is the largest in B.C. history. NDP transportation critic Harry Bains, who favoured lowering or eliminating the tolls in the first year since motorists wouldn’t yet have access to the whole bridge, nevertheless called it a “desperate attempt” by the government to shore up votes ahead of the provincial election. Tolls are required by law to cover the entire $3.3-billion cost of the Port Mann/Highway 1 Improvement project over its 40-year contract — including construction, operation and maintenance by the private partners and the financing costs of the provincial government. The bridge is expected to take in $100 million in tolls in its first year — even with the discounts. jnagel@blackpress.ca

exclusive online report about Terry’s brother, Fred, who was expected to speak at Terry Fox secondary this morning at the PoCo school’s annual spirit assembly.
CORRECTION
In Wednesday’s paper, it was incorrectly reported that Terry Fox was in high school when he was diagnosed with cancer; in fact, he was attending SFU when he learned he had the disease.

BUSINESS OF THE WEEK
MAGLIO’S PRIME PAINTING
In Today’s Economy You Should Know What You Are Paying For! SOME ESTIMATES AREN’T WORTH “FREE”! When you receive a painting estimate does it tell you the name of the painter who’s going to be in your home every day? Does it tell you exactly what prep work and level and brand of paint that is to be used? Is it what you asked for? Does it give you a room by room or item by item area breakdown including details and costs? Is the person estimating even a qualified painter? Estimates are very important! A good painter can spot problematic areas, recommend new coatings saving you costs later, predict problems from sun and rain exposure and even save you a bad case of the “colour clash”!

• Mary Ness, a volunteer co-ordinator with the Port Coquitlam Terry Fox Run, will be shaving her head for the second time. Ness first went under the shears in 2010 to bring attention to the event and raised about $3,100 for the Terry Fox Foundation. This year, Ness — a long-time community volunteer who is also a weight room attendant at Hyde Creek rec centre — is also paying tribute to her mother, who died this year of leukemia. Ness’ goal is to collect $4,000. The head shaving will take place on stage before the Sunday run.

Share & celebrate
‘Test for other properties’
Have a cupcake and shop while you support Share Family and Community Services this weekend. On Sunday from noon to 4 p.m., customers are invited to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Share’d Treasures Thrift Store at 2402 St. Johns St., Port Moody. Share’d Treasures was started by Gertie Grosser in 1972 as a children’s clothing exchange to help low-income mothers exchange their baby clothes. Grosser collected clothing donations from the public, stored the items in her basement and hosted clothing exchanges with these mothers on her front lawn. Forty years later, Share continues to implement new programs based on the changing needs of vulnerable members of the Tri-Cities and adjacent communities. There will be a store-wide 50% off sale during the celebration as well as cupcakes, with all proceeds going to Share’s programs and services.

A recommendation will be presented to the board Nov. 6. “It is fairly aggressive but all this has to occur before the city process and it goes to the ministry,” SD43 secretary treasurer Rick Humphreys told the board. Rezoning is required before the district can sell the properties, little more than an acre each, for single-family homes and the board expects the grassy strips next to school fields could accommodate 17 building lots. While the foray into land development will net only about $4 million, this is a first test of provincial rules that allow districts to dispose of surplus properties, and a model for other districts, according to board chair Melissa Hyndes. “It could be a test for our other properties,” said Hyndes, acknowledging that the district has six closed schools with lands that could be converted into assets for new schools. A strategic plan developed over three years, but not released to the public because of land value sensitivity, has looked at ways mothballed properties
DIANE STRANDBERG/ThE TRI-cITy NEwS
A piece of the Parkland elementary school grounds along Como Lake may be sold by School District 43. could be used to fund capital projects, such as new schools for Burke Mountain. Hyndes said the province looks more favourably on capital projects when school districts put up the cash. “ Wi t h o u t d o n a tions from school districts, [funding for new schools] is slim to none,” said the Port Moody trustee, noting SD43 is facing a demographic shift, with some neighbourhoods emptying of students while others are burgeoning with school-aged kids. “We have taken the initiative to be creative and proactive to generate capital in the areas we serve.” The Parkland site under discussion is approximately 1.26 acres,
or 12% of the total site; the Porter Street site is also 1.26 acres, or 15% of the total site. Together, they would generate little more than seed money to fund consultants for big property sales, a reserve fund for longer term projects, such as rebuilding the board office, and for more immediate concerns, such as the installation of fibre optic cable at Coquitlam schools. “The wish list is long,” said Humphreys, who called the real estate strategy a “conversion of assets” rather than land sales. U n d e r p rov i n c i a l rules, 75% of the money generated through disposal of surplus property has to be spent on capital projects where

Housekeeping for Homeowners. Like most British Columbians, your home is likely your most precious investment, but keeping it protected with simple home maintenance often falls behind a busy lifestyle and other priorities. Yet basic home maintenance does not require a lot of specialized skills or know-how, is very cost effective and an excellent approach to protection against an unexpected crisis and costs. Here we share some important tips to keep your home and family safe. • Prevent the possibility of a fire hazard by keeping the dryer vent clean. Clean the lint filter every time you run your dryer and once a year slide the vent out and remove any lint build up. • Run an energy efficient furnace by replacing filters at least every three months, especially for proper operation over winter. Dirty filters block airflow, lowering air quality and making it potentially dangerous to your family’s health. They also cause furnaces to work overtime, increasing energy bills and eventually to overheat, burn out and be replaced. • Prevent mold by monitoring your home for condensation. Too much moisture indoors eventually poses a health risk, and left untreated will rot woodwork. Examine your windows, checking for cracks or breaks in the seals that can easily be fixed.
HOME INSURANCE WITH
ZlATA STUMP
• Guard against water damage by looking for signs of dripping and corrosion on exposed pipes around toilets, sinks and appliances. Leaking fixtures can often be fixed with simple replacement parts like O-rings, cartridges or flappers for leaky toilets. Leaks are easy to miss, but early repair avoids costly water damage. • Make sure your gutters are clean and water run-off is unobstructed. At least once a year physically remove debris and build-up from your gutters and ensure your downpipes are clear. Blocked gutters and pipes can force water to back up and soak into the roof, walls, and even the foundation. Basic upkeep of your home protects your investment and safeguards your family. And it’s easy enough to do yourself with an idea of what to look for and why.

Pole position has Port Freedom Session Stand strong...Walk in truth Moody council at odds Starts Tuesday, A16 Friday, September 14, 2012, Tri-City News
By Sarah Payne THE TRI-CITY NEWS
Port Moody council is grappling with a proposal to move the three flag poles in front of city hall to make way for a new public art piece. Staff have suggested five possible flagpole locations: in front of the traffic circle; in the grass area near the south (or left, when one is facing city hall) side of city hall; and between the concrete planters directly in front of city hall; the final two included leaving the poles where they are or having the fire hall flag poles also serve as the civic centre’s flags. Council members had a mixed reaction to the suggestions, with Coun. Gerry Nuttall suggesting a sixth option — that three flag poles be placed at the corner of Newport Drive and Knowle Street, where they would hold a prominent location for both the fire hall and civic centre. Mayor Mike Clay and Coun. Rosemary Small felt strongly that the poles should remain where they are while Coun. Zoe Royer suggested the potential artists should be consulted on whether they could incorporate the flag poles into their work. Council agreed to issue the call for artists first, noting there is some flexibility in the poles’ location, and decide once the art piece has been decided on. Other Port Moody news:

College Park residents could see some traffic calming measures coming their way. Data collected in April at four locations in the area, based on residents’ complaints, showed traffic on Princeton Avenue, Harvard Drive and College Park Way ranges from 600 to 1,200 vehicles per day, volumes that are considered low for collector routes. And while Harvard carries the most traffic (1,200 vehicles daily), College Park Way — where there is the lowest amount of traffic — clocked the highest average speed at 64 km/h. The transportation committee has established a neighbourhood advisory committee that will work on developing the traffic calming plan. It’s not yet known how much the measures will cost.

Coquitlam isn’t the only community going after the 2016 BC Summer Games. Yesterday, the BC Games Society announced Abbotsford, Cowichan Valley and Maple Ridge-Pitt Meadows also submitted bids to host the sporting event in 2016; the same municipalities — plus North Vancouver — have also put in backup bids for the games two years later. Coquitlam, which has the support of the cities of Port Coquitlam and Port Moody plus School District 43, is aiming to tie in the 2016 games with its 125th birthday as well as the opening of the Evergreen Line, due to start running in the summer of 2016 and terminate at Town Centre Park, where many of the athletes would compete. If Coquitlam is successful in its bid, 3,700 athletes — most of them between 13 and 15 years of age — would descend on Coquitlam between July 21 and 24, 2016 to compete in 22 sports. The event would also generate massive economic development, city staff say, noting

Kelowna reaped $2.6 million in spin-offs by hosting the four-day summer competition in 2008. The 2012 BC Winter Games in Greater Vernon saw some 1,145 athletes and 2,400 volunteers taking part in 15 sports. The 2012 BC Summer Games were hosted by Surrey while the 2014 summer and winter games will be held in Nanaimo and Mission, respectively. To date, a number of local groups have signed up to back Coquitlam’s bid, including the Sports Centre User Association, Coquitlam Sports Hall of Fame, Coquitlam Aquatics User Group, Coquitlam Field Sport Association, Tri-Cities’ Chamber of Commerce and Douglas College; several Tri-City athletes have also pledged to be BC Games champions, including Olympians C h r i s Wi l s o n a n d Leah Pells, and retired BC Lions kicker Lui Passaglia. Coquitlam last hosted the BC Summer Games in 1991. This fall, the BC Games Society will review and score the applications before making its recommendation to MLA Bill Bennett, minister of community, sport and cultural development. A decision is expected in November.

Gentlemen, start your Lycra. Port Moody’s bike lane network will be expanding with the addition of lanes from Ioco Road to the city’s eastern limit, and on Murray Street to connect to the Shoreline Trail. At Tuesday’s meeting, city council authorized the contract award to Jack Cewe Ltd. in the amount of $371,000. Plans for the bike lanes include a stretch along Guildford Way from Ioco Road past Ungless Way, where crews will need to build a retaining wall and slightly narrow the vehicle lanes to accommodate bicycles. On the advice of TransLink, the project was expanded west to Electronic Avenue to provide better connections and increase the chances of winning grant funding. Bike lanes on that stretch include a two-way bike path from Ioco Road, on the north side of Murray Street, to connect with the Shoreline Trail, as well as an eastbound lane on Murray to connect Electronic Avenue to Ioco. Including the detailed design and tender, environmental monitoring, a possible CP Rail crossing and contingency, the total cost is estimated at $546,000. The city has already earmarked $274,000 for the project and staff have secured matching TransLink grants, for a total budget of $548,000.
August 20 - September 30 7:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. Some night closures may be necessary Drivers may experience detours, traffic congestion and intermittent closures on David Avenue between Pinetree Way and Noons Creek Drive. Please consider using an alternate route and pay attention to electronic message boards with information on traffic pattern changes while road work and paving is underway. Please watch for work crews and equipment and obey all traffic control personnel and signs, including construction speed limits. We appreciate your patience during construction of new pavement, a multi-use pathway, wide curb lanes, an additional travel lane, street lighting, and lookouts on the south side of David Avenue.

After only 6 sessions of treatments, my pain had completely disappeared.” ~ Bob Coss

Former councillor Lynch goes for NDP nod A former Coquitlam city councillor who unsuccessfully sought the mayor’s job in last November’s civic race now wants to run provincially. On Wednesday, Barrie Lynch filed his papers with the BC NDP to run for the nomination in the Coquitlam-Burke
Mountain riding, currently held by BC Liberal MLA Doug Horne. Joe Keithley of the punk band DOA announced last month he’s also seeking the party nod; a nomination meeting is expected in December or January. Yesterday, Lynch told The Tri-City News he has
been thinking for a while about throwing his hat in the provincial ring and said has been approached by incumbent MLAs and MPs to make the move. While he has enjoyed some time off from politics, he said, “I really do like being part of the decision-making process and representing people
and being knowledgeable about what’s happening in the city.” Lynch said what sets him apart from Keithley is his deep roots in the community: He has lived in the constituency for several years and was a three-term councillor before last fall. If elected, Lynch said he
plans to focus on topics that he was unable to LYNCH deal with at the civic level such as housing, the environment and seniors’ issues. The next provincial election is set for next May. jwarren@tricitynews.com

t’s set to be a gloriously sunny weekend and there are loads of ways to enjoy the late-summer rays, whether it’s at the farmer’s market, on a hike or taking in a Treefest tour. And be sure to participate in one of the Terry Fox Runs around town, and help raise money for cancer research.
TODAY: Friday, Sept. 14 LAST CALL
For the Spirit Square Market (3005 Burlington Dr.), across from city hall. Drop by between 3 and 7 p.m. for beautiful — and local — late-summer fruits and veggies, not to mention live music and, hopefully, sunshine. Visit www.makebakegrow. com for more info.
THROW STONES
Thinking about trying your hand at throwing stones? The Port Moody Curling Club hosts an open house from 7 to 10 p.m. at the recreation centre (300 Ioco Rd.), where you can register for daytime and evening leagues. All the throwing, sweeping and hurrying hard gets underway Sept. 17. Get more information at www.portmoodycurling.ca or call 604461-3719.
LES FILMS
The Port Moody Film Society hosts a French mystery minifest, starting with Tell No One (dubbed a “perfect thriller”), in which a pediatrician is suspected of his wife’s murder only to discover many years later that she may not, in fact, be dead. On Saturday night it’s Caché (Hidden), in which Georges receives increasingly disturbing videos and drawings of his family — and the police refuse to help. Both films start at 7:30 p.m. at the Inlet Theatre (100 Newport Dr.). Visit www.pmfilm. ca for more info.
Saturday, Sept. 15 SHRED-A-THON

HIKE DIEZ
Get out for some fresh air on a guided hike into Belcarra Regional Park. A Metro Vancouver park interpreter will take hikers on the Diez Vistas trail — a scenic, but strenuous trek — from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., taking in the tall cedar and hemlock trees. Hikers will be rewarded with a magnificent view at the top. Hiking boots or trail shoes are strongly recommended; hikers (aged 15 and up) should also bring water and lunch.

For more information and a map of the grounds, visit www.rhcs.org.
ART FOR THE FAMILY
Bring the kids to discover all the great stuff happening at Place des Arts (1120 Brunette Ave., Coquitlam) at the Family Open House from 2 to 4 p.m. There will be arts activities, tours of the centre, hands-on teacher demos and prizes up for grabs. And when you find something that piques your interest (or your kids’), you’ll get a discount on class registration (one per
family). Visit www.placedesarts.ca for details.

The Mackin House Museum and Maillardville, Coquitlam’s haven for all things francophone, turn 103 today. Celebrate in true heritage style at the museum (1116 Brunette Ave.) from noon to 4 p.m. by marking the arrival of the first trainload of workers from Quebec and the year Henry J. Mackin, the first Fraser Mills manager, took up residence in what’s now the Mackin House Museum.

Child Passenger Safety Network will offer proper installation tips for child and booster seats. Kids can bring their bikes — and helmets, of course — to try out the

Chamber matches youth and business mentors By Diane Strandberg The Tri-CiTy News
The Tri-Cities Chamber of Commerce is starting a mentorship program to help entrepreneurial young people get launched in their careers. Last spring’s pilot saw a dozen mentors paired with high school, college and university students in careers as varied as accountancy and graphic design. This fall, the chamber is once again looking for mentors and young go-getters for its Youth Mentorship Program. “We’re looking for people in a variety of industries. We’re looking for [them to be] as broad-based as possible,” said Rick Pasin, a chamber director and chair of the Youth Entrepreneurial Committee. Applicants should be students from 18 to 25 years of age who are serious about their careers and prepared to put time and energy into the program. They can be entrepreneurs or business
students, fledgling professionals and even high school students. What the successful applicants will have in common is a zeal for getting a foothold in their career of choice. The commitment is for 10 hours over three months and to file a report at the end. There is also a $60 fee that can be reduced by volunteering for the chamber. “We ask a lot of questions [in the application],” said Pasin, “and one of them is ‘Do you have time?’”
PUTTING IN TIME
But putting in the time is worth it because young people will be able to benefit from the knowledge of people experienced in their field, get help and advice with career planning, and learn about leadership, volunteering and networking. Trevor Sutherland, an accountant at EPR, and the chamber’s treasurer, said he wished such a program was available when he was young. “You come out of university and you only have a
vague sense of what you wanted to accomplish,” he said. Sutherland was matched with a young man who wanted to become an industry accountant, was very organized and had some ideas about where he wanted to work. But he needed some help targeting his resume and support finding a job. Eventually, Alynn Edwards landed a post with Rokstad Power Corporation in Port Coquitlam as an assistant controller. “I was finishing a degree and looking for a job, and he offered a lot of support in that process,” Edwards said of his mentor. But he said people only get out of the program what they put into it. Fortunately, Sutherland was a good match, and was someone who went out of his way to be helpful and supportive. But the benefits don’t only go one way. Sutherland said he also enjoyed working with Edwards, point-
Trevor Sutherland, at left, and Rick Pasin are both TriCities Chamber of Commerce directors who recommend mentoring young people to help them get started in their career. Youth applicants are being accepted now and the chamber is also looking for business professionals to mentor youth.
ing out that the Youth Mentorship Program is a way for seasoned professionals to get an infusion of youthful energy and new blood. The program gave Sutherland an opportunity to help a young person in the community. “It’s a way of giving back.” The deadline for applications was Sept. 14 but the chamber will accept them until Sept. 24. More mentors are also needed. To find out more or apply online, visit at www.tricitieschamber. com/pages/Youth.

Want winter colour? Give kale a chance iN THe GARDeN Brian Minter
cabbage and make great focal points. Flowering kale is also a great accent for evergreen ground covers and looks fabulous as underplantings for trees and winter flowering shrubs like viburnum ‘Pink Dawn’. Smaller four inch pots are ideal to mix in with containers and established plantings
A
s summer gives way to fall and fall fades into the short, dark, wet and cool days of winter, we’re all looking to add some brighteners to our gardens and containers. We need plants that have some brilliance, toughness, hardiness and blend well with other winter colour. Some of the most overlooked plants are the ornamental kales and cabbages that are used so much around the world but seldom here. Part of the challenge is heavy winter rains on some of the very full headed varieties planted out in the open. If these same varieties are placed under the eaves of our houses, they will stand up very well. There are, however, varieties that will thrive out in the weather. Fringed varieties, like the ‘Coral’ and ‘Peacock’ series, are ideal because rather than trapping water they allow water to simply flow through. Exposure to extreme cold wind chills, particularly out in the eastern Valley, can be another issue that may cause their demise. Kale will take a good deal of frost but when we get frost in excess of –10 C. they’ll have some difficulty. There are, however, three shining lights: the newly introduced ‘Red Bor’, ‘Winter Bor’ and ‘Laciniato‘ kale. If they have sun, these varieties can take –25 degrees C. in their stride. ‘Red
There’s a wide selection of ornamental kale and cabbage now available in the Lower Mainland. As your garden begins to lose its colour, these ornamental and colourful brassicas will add fresh new life. Give them a try — it’s a perfect time for planting.
OPEN SUNDAY 1-3 PM BIG HOME BIG VALUE Bor’ is a deep ruffled purple, ‘Winter Bor’ is a wow ruffled green and ‘Laciniato’ is a greensilver showpiece. Classy and elegant, they light up a winter garden. Curiously, they are also edible and delicious when they’ve had a little frost — remember, kale is a new superfood. Today, magnificent new varieties of ornamental kales and cabbages come in all shades and colours and they really add that pop to any fall and winter display. The secret to having them look their best is colour blocking them together in groups. Whites, pinks and purples look so good together and create a brilliant winter display. Complementary companions are winter violas, pansies and dusty miller. Evergreen grasses, such as carex, acorus and fescues, blend beautifully with ornamental kale and

Finding an oasis of calm in South Surrey
Live naturally at Wills Creek Take advantage of a natural lifestyle at Wills Creek, by EMAAR Canada. EMAAR is currently selling the seventh and eighth phases of Wills Creek. Eight units were sold last week, demonstrating the popularity of these amazing homes. With features like custom-designed Shaker-style cabinetry complemented by a handset textured natural stone backsplash and polished granite countertops in the kitchen, there are plenty of things to love at Wills Creek. The townhomes range from 2,400 to 4,400 square feet, so there is no shortage of space. Many homes include 10-foot vaulted ceilings on the main level, and
tons of natural light pours through the large windows. The ensuite bathroom is gorgeous, with an oversized soaker tub with a marble deck (perfect for holding your glass of wine), a frameless glass walk-in shower with a rain shower head and a handset imported glass tile tub and shower surround. Buyers will be able to take advantage of all the amenities of Morgan Creek, including schools and shopping. There is also an amenity centre that includes a fitness centre, multi-purpose room, outdoor swimming pool and a hot tub. Homes start at $539,900. For more information, visit www.willscreek.ca or call 604-542-8971.
glass walk-in shower with modern tile surrounds and accents (depending on your chosen floorplan) are perfect for relaxing in after a long day. Though fall is now on its way, the air-conditioning that comes standard in every home is also a popular feature, Kwok says. Buyers are able to take possession of their new home immediately, so there will be no waiting for construction to finish. Atrium is part of the Pier masterplanned community, which includes the Pinnacle International hotel. The area is a former shipyard that now holds a seawalk, 700-foot pier and heritage buildings. Restaurants, transit, leisure activities and shopping at the Lonsdale Quay Market are all in close proximity, making The Pier a great
place for homebuyers looking to be connected to everything. Downtown Vancouver is just 15 minutes away via SeaBus, so the annoyances of a long commute can easily be washed away. “After coming home from work ... this is a totally different world, because it has the (serenity) of a resort,” says Kwok. Owners at Atrium will also have access to the amenities at the Pinnacle Hotel, including an 80-foot pool, fitness centre with a yoga studio and the hotel concierge services. The hotel also houses 8,000 square feet of meeting and banquet space. One-bedroom homes start at $399,900 and two-bedroom homes at $649,900. For more information, visit www.thepier.info or call 604-983-9065.
‘This is a totally different world’
Atrium at Pinnacle Pier showcases quiet elegance by Kerry Vital
If it’s modern waterfront living you’re yearning for, you need look no farther than Atrium at Pinnacle Pier, located on Vancouver’s North Shore in the Lower Lonsdale area. “It’s one of the very few waterfront communities on the North Shore” says Grace Kwok of Anson Realty Ltd. “They are buying into a master-planned waterfront community.” Ranging from 654 to over 3,000 square feet, the homes at Atrium at Pinnacle Pier are spacious and open, with a custom-designed electric fireplace with granite mantle and designer carpeting. The kitchens include chic granite countertops and a porcelain tile floor, complemented
by designer cabinetry and Bosch appliances. The recessed pot lighting and pendant lighting over the breakfast bar combine to illuminate your tasks without being harsh, while the Kohler faucet in the dual stainless-steel undermount sink make cleanup easy. The nine-foot ceilings and welldesigned floorplans have proven particularly popular, Kwok says. The elegant bathrooms with their own recessed pot lighting and designer cabinetry and vanities with a granite or marble countertop are chic and clean, while the luxurious soaker tub or
“
It’s one of the very few waterfront communities on the North Shore,” says Grace Kwok of Anson Realty Ltd.

BBB: Don’t get burned by furnace fraudsters Fall is the ideal time of year to have your furnace serviced — before the busy winter season starts. Better Business Bureau is warning the public to be cautious about door-to-door heating contractors who may use misleading sales tactics to convince homeowners to buy a new furnace or hot water tanks. In one recent scenario, BBB reports, a consumer was sold a hot water tank by a company that stated it was a 2011 model when in reality the tank was from 2003.

In the past, the BBB
If you smell gas and suspect that you have a leak, leave the building, keeping the door open and any windows that may already be open; then, call Fortis BC at 1-800-663-9911. has received reports of con artists who tried to frighten consumers into purchasing a new heating with warnings that their heating system is leaking dangerous gases that could explode or poison those inside the house. Before you choose a heating contractor visit the company’s Business Review at www.mbc. bbb.org. BBB advises you hire heating contractors that: • are licensed with the BC Safety Authority (call 1-866-566-7233); • are or employ certified gas fitters; • are bonded and insured for liability and property damage; • can provide you a
copy of the gas permit authorizing the company to work on your heating system; • offer warranties that cover equipment, materials and labour; • offer maintenance and service after installation and after warranties have expired; • provide customer references. Some more tips: • Get at least two estimates for the work. All bids should be in writing and should provide a full description of the services to be provided and the materials to be used. • Compare more than just cost. Check the size and rated efficiency of the equipment each contractor recommends.
Ask each contractor how they arrived at recommending a particular sized system. Check the warranty offered and make certain you understand it. • BC Safety Authority recommends a consumer to have their heating system inspected yearly. Be wary of any company that states it is call from your municipality or stating that it is required by law to have an inspection. • Know your rights and read your contract carefully. Consumer Protection BC regulates door-to-door sales contracts. Consumers should know that they have 10 days to cancel these types of contracts and that there are limits to the deposit required. For more information, contact the Consumer Protection BC at 1-888564-9963 or go to www. consumerportectionbc.ca.

The City of Coquitlam HEROS Program is providing the following seminars to help you and your family become more prepared for a major emergency.
i
If you are over 50, you might want to set aside some time today (Friday) and tomorrow to explore new activities. Coquitlam’s two recreation facilities for people 50 years of age and older wrap up their open house week Saturday (Sept. 15). The end of summer is a common time to get more active, break away from routine and start something new. Thus, during open house week at Dogwood and Glen Pine pavilions, adults can drop in and take part in a variety of classes, including: drawing, belly dancing, qigong, dance fitness, machine quilting and woodworking, to name a few. And everyone who visits on an open house day can enter to win a 10-pass fitness drop-in card. For more information on dates and times of activities, you can call the pavilions directly: Dogwood at 604-9276098 or Glen Pine at 604-927-6940. Detailed information is also available at coquitlam.ca under Recreation, Parks and Culture. Dogwood Pavilion, which is celebrating its 35th year this year, is located at 624 Poirier St. (near Centennial secondary school), with the entrance of Winslow Avenue. Glen Pine Pavilion is located at 1200 Glen Pine Crt., across the Spirit Square from Coquitlam city hall.

Cats carry on without Luniw Long-time GM steps down Gary McKenna The Tri-CiTy News
When the Port Moody Black Pa n t h e r s p l a y t h e i r Pa c i f i c International Ju n i o r H o c key League home opener this weekend, one person will be missing from the team’s management group. Long-time general manager Ron Luniw told The Tri-City News this week that he will be stepping down this season, citing health concerns. “Unfortunately, it is something that had to be done,” he said. “I will never quit being a fan. I love the league and the people involved.” Luniw endorsed the decision to make Jamie Jackson coach and general manager of the junior ‘B’ hockey club, adding that the team is in good hands with him at the helm. “I could have moved it to other people,” he said. “I wanted to make sure the right people were taking this over.” The Black Panthers will play the Abbotsford Pilots at the Port Moody Arena on Saturday, Sept. 15, at 7:45 p.m. For more information about the team and its upcoming games, go to www.portmoodyblackpanthers.com.

Express get ready for raucous home opener By Gary McKenna The Tri-CiTy News
The Coquitlam Express may be undefeated in their first two games of the B.C. Hockey League season, but for head coach Jon Calvano, there is still a lot to work on. With so many new faces on this year’s roster, he said getting the players comfortable with each other on the
ice has been the biggest obstacle to overcome during this pre-season. And it could be a few more games before Calvano figures out how all the different pieces fit together. “I don’t think you ever really know what you have,” he said. “You are always looking to get an advantage.” The Express’ homeopener is expected to be a rough and tumble af-
fair, playing the aggressive Langley Rivermen tonight at the Poirier Sports and Leisure Centre. The Rivermen have bulked up in the off-season, with most of their forwards at least 6’2” or taller, with even larger skaters manning the blueline. But where Langley has size, Calvano is hoping his team’s speed and skating will give them
an advantage — and create a more exciting brand of hockey for the Express faithful. “They obviously went for a bigger team,” he said. “But we don’t feel size is the be all factor.” Fans will see for themselves tonight (Friday, Sept. 14) at 7 p.m. at the Poirier Sports and Leisure Centre.

Tri-City players help BC’s big win Tri-City lacrosse was well represented when Team B.C. won the Alumni Cup in a tournament in Oshawa, Ont., last week. Six under-16 field lacrosse players from Port Coquitlam, including tournament MVP Chase Malcolm, and another four from Coquitlam made the team, which dominated the event. The team went undefeated in the fives games it played, knocking the Iroquois squad 17-3 and Nova Scotia 27-0 in early round-robin play. B.C. went on to defeat Manitoba 21-3 and Alberta 17-2 before defeating Ontario in the finals 14-8. Goalie Andrew Gallant of Coquitlam had a standout performance while runners Josh Kemp, Mac Dailly, Dyland Chand, Sam Degroot, Jake Bye, Brodie Gillespie, Mitch Milani and Gordie Phillips all contributed to the victory. The squad is expected to play a recruitment tournament in Baltimore in November.
COQUITLAM METRO-FORD SOCCER PLAYERS of the WEEK JULIA ELLIS
LORENZO DI TOMASO
The Under 15 Metro-Ford Stompers got off to a shaky start to the season by suffering a defeat at the hands of the Richmond Synergy. Despite the loss, goalkeeper JULIA ELLIS turned in a remarkable performance. Not only did Julia make some outstanding saves during the entire match, but she also demonstrated leadership qualities, an enormous desire to win, and a great deal of determination to win the ball in dangerous situations. For her excellent performance this past weekend, JULIA ELLIS has been named Coquitlam Metro-Ford female player of the week.
The Under 15 Metro-Ford Crew—after having qualified for the Under 14 Provincial Cup finals in July—got off to a disappointing start to the 2012-13 season by dropping a 2-0 decision to the Richmond Selects. Despite the loss, defender LORENZO DI TOMASO turned in a brilliant performance. His overlapping runs drove his opponents to distraction, while his defensive prowess also stood out during the entire match. Unfortunately for the Crew, Lorenzo suffered an injury late in the first half and was unable to re-enter the game until the start of the second half. It was during his absence that Richmond was able to score the 2 goals! For his excellent performance, LORENZO DI TOMASO has been selected as Coquitlam Metro-Ford Male Player of the Week!

Be thankful for every fish Good fishing on local lakes
A
few weeks back I told the tale of our experience fishing Central Washington’s Methow River. That was only one day of our week spent just outside Winthrop. The rest of that week was spent at Pearrygin Lake. We picked Pearrygin after reading the promise of hefty trout in the publication Camping Washington. Further investigation revealed that Pearrygin held a large population of resident and Tripoloid rainbows to five pounds. As stated at the beginning of this series, this year’s vacation was a learning experience. I was the only fly fisherman on the lake during our stay, aside from the odd troller. The other anglers opted for float or bottom fishing. The fishing was productive, with a consistent six to 12 fish for each two-to-threehour sessions of angling. T h i s c o n s i s t e n cy was shared with all the other anglers I talked to. My complaint was the size of the fish, which ranged between approximately 10 to 12 inches. What struck me as strange was that the other anglers were happy with their catch.

The contrast between the appreciation these anglers displayed and the size dissatisfaction I would expect from my colleagues brought me to the place of questioning. Has our bounty left some of us spoiled and unappreciative? How does one know when his or her cup runneth over unless they step outside the vacuum created by their peers? I tip my hat to my American brothers for reminding me that we each need to be thankful for all that is provided.

DOWNIE Reagan Lee Feb 11, 1984 ~ Sept 11, 2012 Madeline and Roger Downie of Kamloops, BC are profoundly saddened to report the sudden loss of their daughter Reagan Lee Downie aged 28 years, 7 months. Complications with pneumonia took our special girl peacefully in her slumber with mom and dad beside her through the night holding her as she passed. Left to mourn are Uncle Paul and Aunt Donna Downie (Carson), and Aunt Thelma Downie of Winnipeg, Aunt Frances Stappleton (Downie) and Uncle Dave Stappleton of Kenora, Ontario, Uncle Michael and Aunt Rita Drysdale (King) of Winterset, Iowa, USA Phyllis and Tom Nagle of Alamo, California, and Cousins Stewart and Darlene Adams of Abbotsford, BC and Diane and Linda Freudenberg of Vallejo, California. Reagan’s extended family include all those at Arcus Community Resources and staff including all those at their Rainbow Ridge residential home in Maple Ridge, BC Reagan’s happy place for the past ten years. Also a fond remembrance of all those outside caregivers, teachers, doctors and specialists in Vancouver, Coquitlam and Chilliwack who knew Reagan and loved her. Also a special thank you to all of Reagan’s care givers at Ridge Meadows Hospital who took part in Reagan’s life and passing and for treating her parents with compassion at this difficult time. A private memorial service is to be held Friday, September 14, 2012 at Rainbow Ridge at 11:00 am. In lieu of flowers, donations are welcomed at the KAMLOOPS FOUNDATION, Box 15, Kamloops, BC V2C 5K3 Canada where the family has created the Reagan Lee Downie Legacy Fund in honor of her memory.

Coquitlam Weavers Guild & Dye Pot Club Exhibit Inlet Theatre Galleria 100 Newport Drive Spin-In: Sunday, 1 – 4pm This year the Coquitlam Weavers’ and Spinners’ Guild have thrown down the gauntlet with “The Challenge” This exhibit will include many hand crafted pieces such as tea towels, jackets, shawls and baskets. As well, some of the members have chosen to be part of a group challenge where they are given a selection of deliberately chosen yarns of different fibres, colors and weights. The challenge is to combine this varied mix of yarns into one project and see how a few yarns can inspire individuals to take a different route - and to discover the number of ways the same rules and the same core yarns can be interpreted.
