2 months, 3 calls to ERASE in Tri-Cities 2 of anti-bullying contacts from SD43 parents By Diane Strandberg THE TRI-CITY NEWS
JANIS WARREN/THE TRI-CITY NEWS
Eighty-one-year-old Gil Yarrow, on his 1960 BSA A10 Super Rocket, has travelled all over North America on two wheels in a lifelong love affair with motorcycles that began in his native England. For more on the great grandfather with a penchant for British bikes, see article on page 13.
Flu a health hazard, so masks on Careful when you visit Fraser Health care facilities
Anyone who hasn’t received a flu shot will now be required to wear a mask when visiting residential care or assisted
living facilities within the Fraser Health Authority. Fraser Health’s chief medical health officer, Dr. Paul Van Buynder, made the announcement yesterday after declaring the level of influenza virus circulating in Fraser Health communi-
ties constitutes a health hazard under the Public Health Act. So far this year, 19 long-term care facilities have reported influenza outbreaks, more than twice as many as were reported in each of the past two years.
Influenza-related visits to emergency departments are also at the highest level seen in years. Effective immediately, staff, volunteers and visitors who have not had a flu shot will have to wear a mask and practice stringent hand hygiene
during their time at the facility. Fraser Health is also reminding visitors to avoid going to care facilities if they’re feeling unwell. Visit www.fraserhealth.ca for more information.
Three anonymous complaints of bullying have been made to School District 43 since the province launched its ERASE online reporting tool two months ago, including one about possible cyberbullying on Facebook. All were investigated with results sent to ERASE authorities, according to Julie Pearce, SD43’s assistant superintendent and safe school co-ordinator, and while she can’t reveal details because of privacy regulations, she noted two were made by parents and one was made by a student. Pearce said the complaints, all made in December, were handled promptly and appropriately by the schools in much the same way they would have been if
DIGITAL REGS
New policy about digital devices at SD43 schools: page 5 reported directly to the school. But she said she believes the anonymity of the reporting tool on the ERASE (Expect Respect, and a Safe Education) website made it easier for the individuals to make their complaints. “It’s a place where people can feel comfortable,” Pearce said, noting as well that ERASE will be providing three days of training to SD43 staff in mid-February. Topics will include threat assessment as well as bullying, and will be for administrators and counsellors. ERASE was launched in November by the province to encourage students to report bullying online or using a smartphone. see TRAINING, page 5

Drug education is in the cards PoCoMo aims to help youth with drug ed. cards
PoCoMo no more? PoCoMoYouth Services Society is looking at a new name and rebranding and is asking for public input. Executive director Jerome Bouvier said the name is confusing, with some people thinking the bus only operates in Port Coquitlam when it actually circulates throughout the Tri-Cities. “It’s a rebranding time, were growing and changing, and were looking at moving forward and seeing what we can come up with,”he said. “A different name is part of that.” The group, which runs entirely on donations, posts regularly on Twitter. To find out more, follow @pocomoyouth. To submit input on a potential rebranding, go to www.pocomo.org.
By Diane Strandberg The Tri-CiTy News
“Taking E is like gambling.” “Caffeine drinks combined with alcohol can be deadly.” The messages are stark, powerful and packaged with striking graphics — and the executive director of the PoCoMo Youth Services Society hopes they hit home with youth. A series of nine drug cards, including one with warnings about caffeinated energy drinks, are being circulated among Tri-City young people to encourage them to make better choices and Jerome Bouvier says the handy postcard-style handouts have been well received. Bouvier developed the cards to appeal to youth while also providing them with the latest information on the shortand long-term effects of drugs and alcohol. Teens have been snapping them up since outreach workers began handing

For more information, visit www.pocomo.org. them out on the PoCoMo bus, which visits Tri-City hangouts to provide
youths with support. “It’s just to offer another way to get infor-
mation out to our young people,” Bouvier said.“It’s just education, education
and education, and the end result, I hope, is for them to make healthier
and better choices when it comes to substance use.” The topics include LSD, Ecstasy or“E,”marijuana and mushrooms, and resources as well as drug facts are provided with the hope of discouraging their use, or at least their over-use. Bouvier said outreach workers meet all kinds of young people, including those who are experimenting with drugs and alcohol, and he hopes the cards will prompt them to look at the choices they are making.
“It’s a great tool, it’s a great prop and a way to engage youth in discussion,”he said. PoCoMo will make them available to other agencies interested in using them and will customize them with information about local r e s o u rc e s . L a n g l ey RCMP has already purchased several cards and Bouvier said he has had inquiries from other agencies as well. More information is available at www.pocomo.org. dstrandberg@tricitynews.com
Cashing in Canucks tix for Tri-City charities By Diane Strandberg The Tri-CiTy News
A Coquitlam business owner is turning his Vancouver Canucks hockey tickets into cash for three Tri-City charities. Bill Dick, owner of Phoenix Truck and Crane, has cashed tickets for games that weren’t p l aye d d u r i n g t h e National Hockey League lockout and is cancelling two club seats; he will donate the proceeds to Crossroads Hospice S o c i e t y, P o C o M o Youth Services Society and Share Family and
Community Services, which runs the food bank. In all, Dick is donating about $20,000 to local charities. The contribution is part good deed and part a statement about what’s left of the NHL season for Canucks fans. The owner of the 22-year-old company, which provides trucking and crane services and employs 25 people, said he’s unhappy the abbreviated NHL schedule so far doesn’t included any games from eastern hockey teams. “They asked me the reason [he’s cancelling two club seats]. The reason is that we have now become the Western Hockey League for the rest of the season,” ex-

plained Dick, who said he’s disappointed he won’t see his favourite team, the Boston Bruins, play in the regular season. Hockey politics aside, Dick said he’s pleased to be able to support local charities with the refunds and says he would like to other businesses to do the same. Jerome Bouvier, executive director of the PoCoMo Youth Services Society, which provides outreach and advocate
services for youth, said he appreciates the gift. “I thought it was brilliant and I thought it was a really community conscious choice on behalf of Bill and his company. It’s something that’s the business community could look at,” Bouvier said about the $3,800 donation, which will help run a bus of outreach workers who visit youth hot spots in the Tri-Cities on weekends and deliver support. dstrandberg@tricitynews.com

$34, $31, $29: water, sewer rates to rise By Gary McKenna THE TRI-CITY NEWS
Port Coquitlam homeowners will see an increase in their water and sewer rates this year.
During Monday night’s regular meeting, council voted unanimously in favour of adopting a water rate bylaw that would see the amount a single-family homeowner pays for water jump $24 to $417; owners of townhouses will see a $22 jump to $391 while apartment owners will see a $20

jump to $371. Sewer rates are also on the rise. A single-family homeowner will pay $10 more in 2013 for a total of $306 while townhouse owners will see a $9 jump to $287 and apartments will see a $9 jump to $271. According to a report brought to council last month, utility rate in-
creases are not likely to slow down anytime soon. Most of the additional funding is required to pay for an ambitious capital program set out by Metro Vancouver, which estimates it will need $2.2 billion over the next 10 years. Metro’s planned projects include the Seymour/ Capilano filtration plant,
Coquitlam’s UV disinfection facility and the Port Mann main No. 2 Fraser River cross construction, among other initiatives. “These significant water infrastructure projects have a dramatic effect in 2015 and future years,” said a Port Coquitlam city staff report. “In order to mitigate

Devices OK for schools, some limits School District 43 won’t be tweeting its proposed new digital responsibility policy for students and employees, at least not word for word. The policy, expected to be approved last night (after The Tri-City News’ print deadline), covers eight pages and lists dozens of do’s and don’t’s dealing with email, use of personal technology and how to deal with inappropriate material. Students and staff will be allowed to bring their own technology — including tablet and laptop computers — to school and use it as long as it doesn’t interfere with anyone else. But district employees are restricted to using their devices on their own time. The policy is being introduced as the district installs fibre at eight schools, the board office and Winslow Centre to speed up digital communications, and uses new monitoring tools to identify and block inappropriate material and prioritize and cache material to save bandwidth at other schools.

Carol Todd, whose daughter Amanda committed suicide in October after years of online and face-to-face bullying, is giving cautious approval to the online web tool and said she hopes more people will continue to pay attention to the issue. “I only hope that it continues to grow and that kids and parents will continue to report on bullying and cyberbullying,” Todd said. “That’s the only way that we can begin to get the message through that it’s wrong.” The problem is far from over, though, and she said, “I still hear of
kids bullying other kids and they are just sucking it up.” Todd said she would also like to see more resources made available for parents so they are alerted to instances of bullying around them, including harassment of
their own children. Resources for parents and students are available on the ERASE bullying website (www. erasebullying.ca), which also includes a reporting function that alerts a safe school coordinator within 72 hours of a
complaint. If no response is filed with ERASE, a school district superintendent is notified. The complaint can go as far as the Minister of Education if it is not dealt with at the district level.

B.C. film business is feeling competition Others are giving heftier tax credits to productions By Tom Fletcher Black Press
VICTORIA – The B.C. government is working on ways to hold onto movie, TV and video game production as Hollywood shifts work to other provinces and countries that attract them with generous subsidies and tax breaks. But that won’t involve matching generous tax credits offered by Ontario and Quebec, said Bill Bennett, B.C.’s minister of community, sport and cultural development. “I understand why the film and TV and digital media industries are concerned,” Bennett told Black Press on Monday. “What the film industry seems to want mainly is for us to match the tax credits that are available in Ontario, and we can’t do that.” Bennett said he is working on a new policy that will “clean up and simplify” the business environment for the film industry, which is looking at further costs as B.C. prepares to phase out the harmonized sales tax in March.
LEFT: 20Th CEnTury Fox; rIGhT: TrI-CITy nEWS FILE PhoTo
Left: Actors Halle Berry and Hugh Jackman (shown in a promotional photo) star in the X-Men movies, a series that started production in Vancouver and moved to Montreal. Right: A television crew films a scene in Coquitlam’s Mundy Park. Coquitlam has been a frequent star in movies and TV shows, with the Riverview Hospital grounds often used for filming. Movie industry insiders say most of B.C.’s movie crews are out of work as 2013 begins. One of those is Lee Cleary, assistant director on such B.C.-made movies as Fantastic 4 and the first X-Men movies. “The last project that I worked on in B.C. was in 2009, on The ‘A’ Team,” Cleary said from
his home in Vancouver, where he has lived for 10 years. “Since then, the blockbuster films have not been coming here.” In 2 0 0 9 , On tar io stepped up its tax credit for film and TV production to 25% of all spending by foreign companies in the province. Since then, Ontario has passed B.C. as the third largest
entertainment production centre in North America, after California and New York. Quebec has also stepped up its incentives, resulting in 20th Century Fox moving later movies in the X-Men series to Montreal. B.C. gives the industry a 33% refundable tax credit on labour spending only. Bennett said the B.C.
government provided $1.2 million last year to BC Film + Media, a non-profit society that offers financing, marketing and skills development. Another $947,000 went to the BC Film Commission, a provincial government office that helps producers secure permits, crews and shooting locations around the province, while an-
other $235,000 was provided to regional film commissions. Cleary said the rise of computer image techniques reduce the appeal of B.C. scenery to filmmakers. B.C.’s spectacular mountains can be added to a scene “with a brushstroke,” and Hollywood studios are shopping the world for
the best deal, he said. B.C. still has a reputation for quality crews, b e a u t i f u l l o c at i o n s and easy access to Los Angeles but those things alone aren’t keeping big studio projects coming. Cleary said B.C. residents are still finding work — but leaving the province to get it. tfletcher@blackpress.ca

Coquitlam company Mi Joo Tour and Travel will not be allowed to operate its buses in Canada until it puts measures in place to ensure its drivers are adhering to provincial regulations. The company, whose bus was involved in a fatal crash that killed nine people last month in Pendleton, Ore., is required to provide a detailed response to the ministry by Feb. 28. The Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure, through its Commercial Vehicle Safety Enforcement (CVSE) branch, initiated a safety audit after the crash in Oregon, which has resulted in the suspension. Prior to the crash, the company had not been involved in any major accidents and had maintained a satisfactory road safety rating for the last three years, according to a statement issued Friday from the transportation

PoCo council approves labour relations deal with Metro Van By Gary McKenna The Tri-CiTy News
Port Coquitlam councillors voted in favour of a resolution that would see Metro Vancouver provide collective bargaining and job evaluation services to the municipality for an annual fee. For close to $20,000 per year, PoCo staff will be able to access information and expertise from the region when conducting labour negotiations and arbitration. But the final say over any labour contract decision would still rest with the city, which would maintain its autonomy despite the links with Metro Vancouver, according to PoCo’s chief administration officer, John Leeburn.
“They do and can provide valuable assistance at the negotiating table,” he said during Monday night’s meeting. “It is not my intention that they would be our spokespeople.” Currently, the city relies on lawyers and outside experts when seeking advice for collective bargaining interpretations and grievance administration. Under the agreement with Metro, the city would have access to the region’s labour relations staff members for advice, which Leeburn said could save the municipality money. Prior to 2011, the regional district had a high degree of control over labour negotiations, uniting municipalities in
the face of organized labour groups like CUPE and IAFF, according to a staff report. But over the last decade, municipalities have sought greater independence from the region in making decisions concerning labour relations. Changes have since been made to allow some of the larger communities, which can afford to maintain large human resources departments, the ability to negotiate independently from the region. But smaller communities may still be able to benefit by pooling their resources, according to Mayor Greg Moore. “This really benefits the smaller municipalities,” he said. “Larger municipalities can spend $5
million on a [human resources] department. We can’t afford that.” Not all councillors supported the idea of contracting labour relations and job evaluation services from Metro Vancouver. Coun. Brad West said he feared the deal would be too costly and that PoCo may not have the autonomy it needs when negotiating labour deals if it signs on to the agreement with the region. “I don’t see why we would go and have an expenditure of this amount,” he said. “I don’t see why we would have an outside body do this at an additional cost.” All of the councillors voted in favour of signing on to a base service that would see the region
facilitate discussions and collect data on labour trends. But West and Coun. Dean Washington opposed the portion of the resolution that would see the city pay for collective bargaining and job evaluation services. The item carried 4-2, with Coun. Glen Pollock absent.

Pickton family’s suit over property dropped By Sarah Payne The Tri-CiTy NewS
The siblings of Port Coquitlam serial killer Robert Pickton have dropped their lawsuit against the federal and provincial governments for damage they said was to their property during the RCMP’s search for missing women. The lawsuit was resolved earlier this month without a settlement or costs being assigned to any of the parties involved. In early 2009, David Pickton and Linda Wright claimed in the suit they weren’t compensated for damages to their properties at 953 Dominion Ave. and 2552 Burns Rd. in PoCo, including the destruction of buildings, vehicles and equipment as well as damage to landscaping. “The RCMP has caused damage to the properties and damage to chattels belonging to the plaintiffs,”the writ stated. “The RCMP demolished, removed, destroyed or rendered uninhabitable or useless, various buildings, residences, infrastructure, motor ve h i c l e s , s t o r e s , equipment, and machinery on the properties.” The siblings said they incurred “significant loss and damage” because of the investigation and, while they didn’t have acC cess to the properties once the investigation M started in February Y 2002, they were responsible for mainCM taining the properties. The seven-hectare MY farm’s value has gone CY from a high of $6.3 million in 2007 to the CMY latest assessment of K $51,809. The Burns Road property is valued at $170,046. Police spent nearly two years combing through the properties in search of evidence that would link Robert Pickton to the deaths of nearly 50 women who went missing from the Downtown Eastside. ‘Willy’ Pickton was convicted in 2007 of murdering six women; murder charges for another 20 women did not go to trial. spayne@tricitynews.com

What Parents Need to Know Dear Parents, The Foundation Skills Assessment (FSA), given to Grade 4 and 7 students, does not count towards your child’s marks. The results do not actively support your child’s learning. • FSA tests are expensive and waste money at a time when cuts are being made. • FSA tests do not help students learn or teachers teach. • FSA tests take valuable time away from more meaningful learning. • The data does not provide real help to students, parents, or schools. • The results are misused to rank schools and promote privatization. Teachers in Coquitlam recommend that parents write a letter to your school principal requesting that your child be exempted from the FSA. To learn more about your child’s progress and the real assessments done in the classroom, talk to her or his teacher. A message from the Coquitlam Teachers’ Association

omplacency is a malignant tumour that is hard to excise. To avoid rampant cynicism that all too often dominates social discourse, here’s a to-do list for 2013 in the Tri-Cities. • Ending homelessness: It’s with some relief that homelessness has been substantially reduced in the Tri-Cities, thanks to the intervention of the Hope for Freedom Society outreach workers and hundreds of volunteers. But there is still a core of about 25 to 45 people living rough and it would be easy to give up on these people with a shrug and assume that’s the best we can do. In fact, it isn’t, and it’s about time Fraser Health started putting mental health workers out into the community, where they can connect with people and ensure they live with dignity. (And while we’re at it, let’s get concrete poured for the permanent shelter planned for 3030 Gordon Ave. in Coquitlam.) • Ending poverty: Why is it that the number of people using Share’s food bank continues to climb despite a slightly improved economy and increases in minimum wage? Are government programs supporting refugees adequate? Is child poverty being addressed in this community? Are kids going to school hungry? More research, cooperation and solutions are needed to make improvements on this issue. • Talking pot: What will be the impact of changes to medical marijuana laws on sick consumers and city zoning and law enforcement? More information on these issues is needed in all three cities. • Keeping it green: Let’s not be complacent about protecting the Coquitlam watershed and Port Moody Inlet. Changes to federal legislation (Bill C-38 passed this spring) have altered the landscape on creek and stream protection. More information is needed on how this will affect development and whether existing rules and regulations will need new approaches. What’s more, Coquitlam needs to do a better job in making sure developers are doing everything possible to build sustainably on steep hillsides. • Ending bullying: Will the Tri-Cities combine efforts to ensure that another Amanda Todd incident doesn’t happen and is School District 43 adequately resourced to handle complaints? Do we really want to eradicate bullying or was that just a lot of talk? These are just a few of many files that need conscious effort this coming year.
An inconvenient truth about oil pollution BC VIEWS Tom Fletcher VICTORIA study of six northern Alberta lakes conducted by Environment Canada and other scientists was published last week, generating headlines around the world. “Oil sands toxins ‘accumulate in freshwater systems,’”the BBC announced. The headline in The NewYork Times declared:“Oil sands industry in Canada tied to higher carcinogen level.” The study was reported with similar alarm across Canada. It looked at levels of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) in lakebed sediment, and found levels measurably higher than natural sources since oil sands extraction began 50 years ago. Most news reports I saw made little or no effort to put this information into context, in terms of the actual risk to humans, fish and
A
other organisms. Some quoted people they knew would scream bloody murder because, as we in the media are taught, conflict and fear attract an audience. As expected, U.S. environmental groups and their Canadian branch offices ramped up the rhetoric to battle their favourite villain. At least one major Canadian newspaper, the Globe and Mail, did a responsible job. Its report on the study stated“PAH pollution level remains low — on par, at worst, with an urban lake — but is rising.” In fact, five of six lakes tested were far below average contamination of urban lakes. PAH fallout is a daily constant of urban life, from vehicles and industry, and particularly where coal is burned for electricity. To be clear, there are dozens of different forms of PAH. Some have been shown to increase cancer risk and some have been linked to (but not proven to cause) infertility, immune disorders and fish mutations. So when you drive your kids to school, stand at the bus stop or drink a glass of water from

Yes, we do need libraries The Editor, Re. “Do we really need libraries?” (Face to Face, The Tri-City News, Jan. 11). To Face to Face columnist Andy Radia: I’m glad Coquitlam is using its money to provide a place for the exchange of ideas. We need more spaces for people to get together and talk about what interests them. Did you check page 22 of The Tri-City News’ Jan. 11 edition (in the Books Plus column) to read about people getting together to practise their French, bowl using Wii, enjoy storytime with their pre-schoolers, learn about
new electronic gadgets or work on a homework project together in the libraries of the Tri-Cities? If these activities were not happening at the library, where would they be happening? Would they be happening? Access to the internet does not mean knowing how to use the internet effectively. Hopefully, people going to the library will also gain knowledge from a librarian on how to search, which search engines will provide them with the best results and to critically think about the websites they are accessing. You say our city coun-
cils need to have an eye on the future. Yes, they do and they are by providing a welcoming place full of ideas and a place for people to become informed. Paper books aren’t obsolete yet. I hope many parents are signing lots of books to curl up with their children and read on these dark nights. I hope people are enjoying reading newspapers they can’t afford to buy in the lounge chairs so they are informed citizens of our great country. I hope they are enjoying the art on the walls their neighbours have created. There is so much to do

What do we pay Coq. staff & council for? The Editor, Re. “Tougher runoff rules urged” (The Tri-City News, Jan. 9). Once again, Coquitlam taxpayers are footing the bill for private consultants to educate our highly paid city staff and our woefully non-diligent council members. Why, one would almost think
that the development of Burke Mountain was the very first ever undertaken in this city of hills, creeks and rain. Twenty-two recommendations made to, and accepted by our manager of development services? And those are just to bring Coquitlam’s runoff rules up to the
standards employed by Surrey, Abbotsford, Langley and Maple Ridge. Don’t our city staff members make it their business to keep abreast of best practices in their professional fields? Why should we have to pay consultants to point out the obvious?
Here’s how it works: Hills minus trees plus rain equals runoff. Steep hills minus many trees plus lots of rain equals damaging runoff. I vote to have the wages of staff and council go to local streamkeepers. Helen Brown, Coquitlam

Vancity branch focuses on the needs of people and their local communities When most of us think of our local credit union branch, we think of a place we visit to get a mortgage, secure a car loan or invest for our retirement. But what if that branch was also a community hub, a place where people and organizations meet to work on and solve business and social issues that build the economic resilience of your community? What if that branch was putting the needs of its community and its members first in everything it did from the way it lends money, to the way it invests the savings of its members? It’s called values-based banking and it’s an idea Vancity is bringing to life in a new way inside two of its redesigned community branches in Port Coquitlam and Burnaby. “One of Vancity’s strengths has always been an ability to help members thrive financially as we build vibrant communities together,” says branch manager Jenn Fahey at the Shaughnessy Station community branch in Port Coquitlam. “We’re a community asset, and these branches reflect that in a physical way, a place where you can get the savvy financial services and advice you need, while helping build community.” The branch has a Community Stage, which is a presentation room that can be used by community groups to convene and action plan, host seminars and special events that encourage new connections, Make Good Money (TM) is a registered trademark of Vancouver City Savings Credit Union

Man with hammer arrested Suspect walked towards cops, who had gun and Taser drawn By Sarah Payne The Tri-CiTy NewS
A Vancouver man is facing several charges after allegedly threatening his mother and Port Moody Police officers, one of whom was close to firing his Taser at the suspect. Shortly before 10 a.m. on Wednesday, Jan. 9, PMPD officers responded to a complaint from a woman who had gotten into an argument with her adult son while driving. She said he’d smashed the dashboard and passenger door of her vehicle with a large hammer before he fled on foot. The 39-year-old man, described as being about 6’4” and weighing 240 lb., was located as he fled along the 2400-block of St. Johns Street; the officer lost sight of the man as he ran behind the Burrard Public House. A second officer who entered the laneway from a different direction spotted the man in an alcove where, “based on the male’s stance it appears he may have been attempting to ambush the officer as he rounded
the corner,” according to a PMPD release. When the man saw the second officer, he reportedly raised the hammer above his head and allegedly charged towards the officer, who was still seated in his police vehicle. At the same time, the first officer entered the laneway and saw the man allegedly charging his partner, drew his gun and told the man to “stop and drop his weapon.” The man turned and, with the hammer raised, reportedly began advancing on the first officer. He continued to ignore the officer’s commands and advanced despite having a gun pointed at him. The second officer got out of his vehicle, drew his conducted energy weapon and warned the man he would be tasered. At this point, the man suddenly stopped, looked around, dropped the hammer and surrendered without further incident. “This entire scenario could have ended quite differently had it not been for the restraint of the officers on scene,”said Const. Luke van Winkel. Curt Morzby is facing charges of mischief, breaching his existing conditions, two counts of assault and one count of uttering threats.

Shotgun seized, woman arrested A Port Moody woman was arrested on Friday after reportedly brandishing a shotgun from her balcony. Police were called to the home in the 200block of Angela Drive shortly before 4:30 p.m. on Jan. 11 for reports of a woman who had apparently been yelling at two women in a vehicle, and possibly pointing a shotgun at them. Officers shut down traffic and set up a containment area around the home before ordering the woman to come
outside without the gun. The 47-year-old woman left the home without further incident and was taken into custody for pointing a firearm and unlawful possession of a firearm. She was later taken to hospital under Section 28 of the Mental Health Act and was released on a promise to appear. When officers searched the home, they found a 12-gauge shotgun under the bed in the master bedroom. The woman’s
25-year-old daughter said it belonged to her; police seized the shotgun for public safety. It’s believed the incident stems from an family dispute. “Every family has arguments and disagreements but to get to the point where you’re pointing a shotgun at someone goes beyond rational thinking,” said Const. Luke van Winkel.“Everyone involved is quite fortunate this incident didn’t end tragically.” spayne@tricitynews.com

Stroller reportedly used in shoplifting A Surrey man was arrested last week after allegedly using his 17-month-old son’s stroller as a shoplifting tool in Port Moody. On Jan. 11, PoMo Police were called to Shoppers Drug Mart on St. Johns Street, where they say two men had just stolen 17 bottles of perfume valued at over $900. One suspect evaded capture but the second was busted a few blocks away, near Moody middle school. The 39-year-old Surrey man is known to police for property-related offences. He and his son were turned over to the Ministry of Children and Family Development and criminal charges are being sought. Among the stolen property allegedly concealed in the stroller was a notebook, which police believe may belong to the other suspect. It contains the man’s name, phone number, court information and what appears to be a “shopping list” of goods to steal, including specific colognes, perfumes, medications and a list of Shoppers Drug Mart and Safeway stores from Port Moody to Vancouver The investigation into the second suspect is on-
going.
100 LB. OF MEAT
PoMo Police discovered a potentially smelly surprise when they were called to a report of an abandoned suitcase outside an apartment block at 2010 St. Johns St. on Sunday night. When the officer opened the suitcase, he found more than 100 lb. of packaged, frozen meats. PMPD Const. Luke van Winkel said officers are not sure where the meat came from but they do occasionally get reports of food stolen from deep freezes in carports. He suggested a local homeless person may have rummaged through an outside freezer, gathered the meat into an old suitcase, strapped it on to a bicycle and rode off. The meat may have fallen off the bike at some point or the person may have been startled and dropped it. “In the long run, it’s probably best that they dropped it,” he added. “Some of the beef had best-before dates of 2004 — the prime rib was well past its prime.” Police will be holding on to the meat in case somebody comes to claim it.

Great grandfather is still a dedicated motorcyclist at 81 By Janis Warren The Tri-CiTy News
H
e was 17 and living in Middlesex, England when a motorcycle caught his eye. Gil Yarrow had recently bought a kit car from his uncle but when he saw “those guys flashing about” on their twowheeled machines and heard those engines roar, he knew he had to get one for himself. He traded four wheels for two, the car for a 1948 BSA 250cc side-valve model and took lessons, practising on English back roads. Soon, Yarrow felt competent enough that he and two friends started tinkering around. He moved to South Africa, took up the trade of a joiner and, during his 12 years there,Yarrow fixed up a few motorcycles. He remembers his first rebuild — at the age of 19 — like it was yesterday: a 1948 Norton ESR 500cc. In 1964, Yarrow moved to Canada and his love affair with the motorcycles of his homeland never wavered. He taught his two sons about bikes and about the importance of riding safely, complete with protective and reflective gear (in 2006, he broke a rib while riding his Yamaha XS1100 in California). Yarrow often drove around North America to rallies and invitationals, mostly during summer months. Last year, he took his Kawasaki to Las Vegas; the year prior, Yarrow travelled to New York and back on his 1971 Norton Commando 750cc. Yarrow said he restored the “four-stroke, twin-cylinder, air-cooled OHV engine four-speed” roadster so well that it didn’t need any re-

Tri-City resident Gil Yarrow, 81, on the 1960 BSA A10 Super Rocket he restored and will be showing off as part of his group’s vintage motorcycle display at the Vancouver Motorcycle Show, which starts tomorrow (Thursday) at Tradex in Abbotsford. Last month, Yarrow was named by the Westcoast British Motorcycle Owners Club as its first Member of the Year. pairs on the 7,500-mile round trip from his TriCity home — a feat that was recognized at last year’s Crescent Beach Invitational. Still, it’s the 1960 BSA A10 Super Rocket 650cc he brought back to life a dozen years ago of which he’s proudest. In 1999, Yarrow drove to Billings, Mont., to collect “a piece of junk,” as his wife called it. “I said, ‘Oh, just you
wait.’ All the tin work was in excellent shape.” Yarrow took a year to get new parts from England and renew the vehicle. “To be done prope r l y, yo u can’t rush it,” he said, adding, “I love the achievement of making something look brand new that was
previously a rust bucket.” This week, the 81-yearold great-grandfather of three will show off his handiwork when he exhibits the Super R o c ke t at the Va n c o u v e r Motorcycle Show in Abbotsford. It will be part of the vintage motorcycle

Besides the Norton and BSA Super Rocket, Yarrow also owns a 1970 BSA Lightning, a 1968 Triumph Bonneville, a 1964 Matchless G12CSR and a Yamaha FJ1100.

ombine a penchant for a clean home and an aversion to strong smells and what do you get? Me. I am that silly person who can’t even enjoy her newly cleaned home. Recently, I found myself questioning my cleaning routine, which basically consists of cleaning like crazy, then leaving for the day so I don’t have to sit in a beautiful apartment that reeks of toxic chemicals. Certain smells, especially those from detergents or cleaning agents, can bring on a headache. Recently, I started using a cleaning agent touted for it’s“greenness,” safety and light fragrance. Still, I ended up diluting it halfway with water because it was too strong. Let 2013 be the year that I clean with abandon. With a little help from a few books, I will create an arsenal of nontoxic cleaning supplies. To better understand the science of stain removal, check out Planet Home by Jeffrey Hollender. Learn about the difference between alkaline and acidic cleaners, and which cleans what better. Find
for which you tally up a “danger”score. Then you can complete a Simple Solutions checklist. The scariness is balanced out by cute illustrations and conversational, easy-toread text. The Naturally Clean Home: 150 Super-Easy Herbal Formulas for Green Cleaning by Karyn Siegel-Maier was my next read — it had me at“Super-Easy.”A concise list of herbs and their beneficial properties (e.g., antibacterial, antiviral, anti-fungal, etc.) was helpful in understanding what each herb can do. The sections Suggested Equipment and Making a Starter Kit were perfect for someone like me, who wanted to spend a little as possible but get a few basic ingredients to create my own natural cleansers. There are recipes for cleaning the kitchen, bathroom, floor, walls — and even recipes for doing laundry. Thanks to these books, my new weapons of mess-destruction will be non-toxic, biodegradable and have no synthetic fragrances.

Sign Me Up 2013! Veggies, grains 2 SIGN UP FOR ACTIVITIES key components of a healthy diet Following are some ongoing activities in the Tri-Cities for which you might want to sign up:
continued from page 21
• Choose vegetables and fruit prepared with little or no added fat, sugar or salt. • Enjoy vegetables steamed, baked or stir-fried, instead of deep fried. • Have vegetables and fruit more often than juice.
GRAIN PRODUCTS
• Make at least half of your grain products whole grain. • Eat a variety of whole grains, such as barley, brown rice, oats, quinoa and wild rice. • Enjoy whole grain breads, oatmeal and whole wheat pasta. • Choose grain products that are low in fat, sugar and salt. • Compare the Nutrition Facts table on labels to make wise choices. • Enjoy the true taste of grain products. When adding sauces or spreads, use small amounts.
MILK & ALTERNATIVES
• Drink 500 ml (2 cups) of skim, 1% or 2% milk every day for adequate vitamin D. • Drink fortified soy beverages if you do not drink milk. • Select lower-fat milk alternatives. • Compare the Nutrition Facts table on yogurt or cheese labels to make wise choices.
MEAT & ALTERNATIVES
• Eat meat alternatives such as beans, lentils and tofu often. • Eat at least two Food Guide Servings of fish each week. • Choose fish such as char, herring, mackerel, salmon, sardines, and trout. • Select lean meat and alternatives prepared with little or no added fat or salt. • Trim the visible fat from meats. Remove the skin on poultry. • Use cooking methods such as roasting, baking or poaching that require little or no added fat. • If you eat luncheon meats, sausages or prepackaged meats, choose those lower in salt (sodium) and fat. A diet low in saturated fat and trans fat can help reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. For good health, include a small amount of unsaturated fat each day such as canola, olive or soybean oil, margarine or mayonnaise. If you’re thirsty, make water your beverage of choice. It’s a great calorie-free way to quench your thirst. Limit your intake of soft drinks, sports drinks, energy drinks, fruit drinks and punches, sweetened hot and cold beverages as well as alcohol. These beverages can be high in calories and low in nutrients.

Got the winter blues? Trade in a gift at PMAC
Port Moody Arts Centre Society hosts a present exchange next Wednesday By Janis Warren The Tri-CiTy NeWS
Y
ou know that puzzle your kids got five Christmases ago and is in the box, untouched? What about those perfumed soaps your granny gave you last month? They’re still in the closet, unopened, sitting next to the obscure CD your cousin bought you for your birthday, right? Face it, you know they will be recycled for someone else’s special occasion eventually. But, as they say, your trash is somebody’s treasure and, with that in mind, the Port Moody Arts Centre Society will host a “Chase Away the January Blues” bash next week, graciously offering Tri-City residents the opportunity to get rid of an unwanted present from their stash. It hopes gift receivers will be just as happy as gift givers for the exchange that happens at PMAC on Jan. 23, a day that tends to be one of the most darkest and depressing of the year. For the event, rejected presents will be sorted into one of the following categories: arts-oriented, entertainment, kids 12 and under, and“silly.” And gift givers need not wrap their item in fancy paper: Just hide it under a page from the newspaper or an old map, for example. The winter bluesbusting soiree follows the success of the society’s Artist Trading Card Party last fall to ma r k I nte rnati o nal Artists’ Day. Then, more than 70 people came out and swapped small, original art pieces, mingled with local craftspeople and viewed the art on PMAC’s walls. PMAC society board member Jillian Hull said the idea for “Chase Away the January Blues” came from Helen Daniels, a Port Moody artist who is on the society’s membership committee of which

JANIS WARREN/THE TRI-CITY NEWS
Salomeh Honarmand and Helen Daniels, who are on the membership committee for the Port Moody Arts Centre Society, look over some of their unwanted Christmas presents such as books, CDs and a teapot candle. The society will host a gift exchange next week in an effort to get people to the St. Johns Street facility as well as enjoy some of the art and music being offered. Hull is the chair, and it “grew out of our collective belief that the arts centre is the heart of the city and that fun, arts-related community events should be accessible for
everyone.” Hull added, “We knew from the success of our Artist Trading Cards event in October that simple events — where we make our own fun

A civic seal used to mark official documents at the train station. A Remington standard typewriter. And a ballot box that saw votes cast for politicians who shaped the city. All three items helped to run Port Moody in and around 1913 — the year the city was born. And now, the Port Moody Arts Centre — the place where mu- CiviC SeAl nicipal policies and procedures once came to be — wants to recognize the artifacts in an art show as part of the city’s centennial celebrations this year. PMAC is calling on artists to submit their interpretations of the three objects — be it in painting, sculpture, drawing or mixed media — for a display running March 21 to April 21. The exhibit will also play a role during a reenactment of the first city council meeting in 1913, happening on April 7, 2013. Artists who want to be part of the centennial show can submit their ideas by Friday, Jan. 25 to PMAC gallery co-ordinator Susan Jessop at sjessop@pomoarts.ca. Candidates are asked to provide their contact details, resume and artist statement for their proposal, plus up to five jpeg images. The pieces shouldn’t be more than 10” deep, 20” tall and 20” wide; they will be placed in the show beside the artifacts as part of the Cabinet of Curiosity series. Successful applicants will be contacted next month; artists will have until March 15 to finish their work. Artists will also receive $100 and retain their piece after the exhibit. jwarren@tricitynews.com

The artwork of a C o q u i t l a m wo m a n , her father and her late grandfather will be shown in Port Coquitlam this and next month to coincide with B.C.’s new stat holiday, Family Day. K a r i n Ve n g s h o e l and her dad, Peter, also a Coquitlam resident, will display their pieces alongside Arne Vengshoel’s tapestries and wood carvings for a display celebrating their NorwegianCanadian roots, tit l e d G e n e ra s j o n e r / Generations: A Multigenerational Retrospective of Works. Karin, a third-year student at Vancouver’s Emily Carr University of Art + Design, told The Tri-City News by email it is the second time the trio has exhibited together. The first was at the Port Moody Arts Centre; however, the city of PoCo has offered more space in the Gathering Place and The Outlet, in the Leigh Square Community Arts Village,“so we are able to show even more pieces this time,”she wrote. Karin said she admired her grandfather’s skill in tapestry, painting wood carving. He went to school in Drøbak, Norway, and at the age of 21, became a cabinet master. While he built furniture in the day, Arne spent his nights painting and hand-dying wool for tapestries. During the Second World War, he and his wife — pregnant with Peter — fled the invaded country at night by skiing into neighbouring Sweden. Twelve years later, the family immigrated to Canada. Karin said Arne was inspired by Canadian impressionists and tied Norwegian heritage, folklore and landscapes into his art-

jigs, reels Blackthorn, a Vancouverbased Celtic folk group that includes violinist/fiddler Rosie Carver, a faculty member at Coquitlam’s Place des Arts, will perform at the Maillardville facility’s first annual Robert Burns Night on Saturday.

A toast to Robbie B. By Janis Warren The Tri-CiTy News
The life and poetry of Robert Burns will be honoured at Coquitlam’s Place des Arts on Saturday when it hosts its first annual supper and Celtic music show for the Scottish bard born 254 years ago this month. Organizer Michael Fera, the Maillardville centre’s program and events co-ordinator, said he’ll be whipping up a feast that includes roast beef,“tatties” (mashed potatoes), “neeps” (mashed turnips), peas and gravy as well as a whiskeysoaked sponge cake with sweetened cream for dessert; a cash bar with single-malt Scotch, UK beers and wine will also be available. And, of course, that savoury pudding of sheep intestines and suet that makes many Scots salivate and others cringe — better known as haggis — will be served up on oat cakes, near the intermission of the Blackthorn concert. Fera said dinner-show combos are typically featured at Place des Arts in March during Festival du Bois, the annual FrenchCanadian arts and culture event at nearby Mackin Park; however, since fiddler Rosie Carver was scheduled to play in January with Blackthorn as part of PdA’s faculty series, Fera tied her Celtic party with a Burns Night supper. “We’re almost sold out for the dinner/concert,”
Fera said. “We’re excited because there seems to be a real appetite for this sort of thing in the TriCities. We’re hoping to do more.” Fera, who used to work on Tony and Tina’s Wedding, an interactive theatre production that ran in Vancouver, has access to a commercial kitchen and will be cooking the traditional Scottish dinner for 35 revellers. As for the musical set that starts at 7:30 p.m.,
Carver said it’s a secret. “We like an element of surprise for our audiences,” said the fiddler/ violinist who has about two dozen students at Place des Arts. But she hinted Blackthorn will be piped in by Kyle Maloney who will later deliver the tongue-twisting Address to a Haggis, a famous Burns’ poem. Fera hopes participants will don their tartans for the special occasion. “It’s a full evening so I’m sure people will
put on their finery and come out and have a good night at Place des Arts,”he said. • Tickets at $35/$33 for the 6 p.m. dinner and concert or $$15/$13 for the 7:30 p.m. Blackthorn show are available by calling Place des Arts at 604-664-1636 or online at www.brownpapertickets.com/event/264674. Tickets for the Jan. 19 event can also be bought in person at the centre (1120 Brunette Ave.).
• Coquitlam seniors’ centre Dogwood Pavilion (624 Poirier St.), will toast Robert Burns with a luncheon on his birthday — Jan. 25 — from noon to 3 p.m., that will include roast beef, haggis and turnips. Scottish pipers and Michelle Carlisle of Blackthorn will entertain. Tickets at $19 are to be bought before Jan. 18; tickets won’t be sold on the day of the luncheon. Call 604-927-6098. • Six-time world champion Simon University Pipe Band, led by Coquitlam pipe major Terry Lee, and its reigning Grade 3A world champion Robert Malcolm Memorial Pipe Band, under the direction of Coquitlam’s Rob Menzies, will be featured at a dinner on Jan. 25 at Bonsor Banquet Hall in Burnaby. Tickets at $55 can be bought by calling 604-436-1080, emailing dinoc@ telus.net or visiting www.sfu.pipeband. com.

Fox takes third place at Beagle By Gary McKenna The Tri-CiTy News
While White Rock Christian Academy and Walnut Grove secondary were duking it out for first place at the Legal Beagle AAA boys’ basketball tournament on the weekend, local hoops fans were likely more interested in Saturday’s bronze medal match. The third-place game was a Tri-City showdown, with PoCo’s Terry Fox Ravens in one corner and Coquitlam’s Gleneagle Talons in the other. Fox, which currently sits in first place in the Fraser Valley North standings and hosted the annual Legal Beagle tourney, managed to best the Talons, in a tightly played 68-64 game.
The Ravens showed off its young guns at the tournament, with Grade 10 point guard Jomari Reyes scoring a gamehigh 25 points in the third-place victory over the Talons. Teammates Travor Casey, meanwhile, managed to add 12 points in the victory. Gleneagle’s Denver Sparks-Guest led the losing club with 19 points, while teammates Tariq Scott had 14 points. White Rock Christian Academy managed to defeat the Walnut Grove Gators 86-80 to take first overall at the 24th annual Legal Beagle Tournament. W R CA , wh i c h i s ranked fourth, managed to outlast the top-ranked Gators, in double over time Saturday night.’ sports@tricitynews.com
Dimitar helps Clan take win Coq. swimmer took first in freestyle and backstroke Coquitlam’s Dimitar Ivanov had two victories for the Simon Fraser University Clan when the school’s swim team competed at a dual meet on Saturday at the Paul and Margaret Savage Pool. Ivanov was first victorious in the men’s 800-metre freestyle swim, winning the competition with a time of 8:39.87. The swimmer’s
second victory came in the 200-metre backstroke, when the SFU athlete recorded a time of 2:01.96. The wins helped the Clan defeat the Nanooks 75-44 and the Puget Sound Loggers 87-32 at the meet, which also saw Coquitlam’s Alexandria Schofield and Kristine Lawson take home victories. The Clan men will be back in action on Jan. 18 in Claremont, Calif., against Pomona-Pitzer while the Clan women will take on PomonaPitzer and California Baptist. sports@tricitynews.com
