Fire crews save home Quick work saved an Edmonds-area house from complete ruin

Quick work by local firefighters saved a two-storey house in the Edmonds area from complete destruction Tuesday evening, according to the Burnaby Fire Department. “I thought we were going to lose the whole structure,” assistant fire Chief Brian Kirk told the NOW. “The guys did a really good job.” Crews were called to 7866 15th Ave. at about 5:50 p.m. Seeing dark smoke billowing from the area even before their arrival, they called for more trucks right away. “We threw lots of truck companies at it,” Kirk said. One of the people who called 911 was neighbour Lata Patel, who lives across the backyard from the house. “I was just cooking and I looked over and saw a lot of smoke,” she told the NOW. By the time she called 911 and got everyone out of her own house, she said she could see flames coming from the Continued on page 8

THE CHANGING CITY
‘Monstrous’ tower raises residents’ ire Grant Granger
ggranger@burnabynow.com
A proposed 46-storey Lougheed Highway condominium tower will cast a shadow over the neighbourhood, especially when it comes to traffic, according to nearby residents who appeared at a public hearing at Burnaby City Hall Tuesday. About 25 people showed up to oppose the project to be built at the northwest cor-
ner of Lougheed and Springer Avenue. It’s part of a triangle of land where Lougheed, Springer and Douglas Road come together. Longtime area resident Stacy Boyer said she was disappointed and frustrated because she believes property values and her enjoyment of living will decrease because such large highrises can ruin neighbourhoods. “Forty-six storeys is monstrous. It is very, very big compared to everything around it,”
said Boyer. “This is just one more building going up in that tiny, tiny footprint of land, and I’m displaced from the area where I’ve grown up in.” The proposal calls for 307 strata units and six three-storey townhouses.The tower’s units will range from 32 studios of 447 to 513 square feet to six adaptable threebedroom units of up to 1,546 sq. ft. A city staff report said the tower is designed to recede at four different levels, allowing for sky

gardens at key transition points. But some residents told council the highrise will dwarf the current two next door on Douglas Road, which top out at 18 storeys, and create even more congestion. “It’s quite a bottleneck already. I’d be quite concerned about several hundred additional people on those roads,” said Rhea Stewart. “The area is already quite parcelled in.” Continued on page 8

Premier tips his hat to Burnaby’s ‘Team Horgan’
Cornelia Naylor
cnaylor@burnabynow.com
Despite its history as an NDP stronghold, Burnaby hasn’t always been friendly territory for Premier John Horgan.
A trip to this city used to be an intimidating prospect as a young lacrosse player, he told a sold-out breakfast gathering hosted by the Burnaby Board of Trade Wednesday, but the city has since become home to some
of his earliest supporters. “Knowing there’s a very very friendly, to me at least, council here, with His Worship Derek Corrigan one of the first adherents to Team Horgan going back many many years now, I find that
Burnaby is a friendly place for me, and it’s a dynamic place to be,” Horgan said. Along with the NDPfriendly mayor and council, the premier was joined by all four of Burnaby’s NDP MLAs: Raj Chouhan, Janet
Routledge, Katrina Chen and Anne Kang. Speaking to a full house at the Element Vancouver Metrotown Hotel, Horgan discussed three challenges he said business groups have raised with him (hous-
ing, child care, skills training) and what his provincial government is doing about them. He also fielded questions from the audience. See below for highlights.
Quotable moments: Some highlights from a Q&A with the premier On his government’s plan to spend $1 billion over three years on child care: “If we are going to say to half the population that when you choose to have a family that you’re going to be separated from your career and your workplace for extended periods of time, that’s going to have a negative impact on our success, and that’s why child care is so critically important.” On people who think a November 2016 Supreme
Court of Canada decision in favour of the B.C. Teachers’ Federation will fix ongoing issues in the public education system: “Those who’ve been unaware of that will think, ‘Well, the courts resolved that and now we’re moving forward.’ Well, it’s not that simple. The court was resolving an issue that began in the 1990s.” On allowing SFU and BCIT to make their own decisions about building student
housing: “They’ll be able to borrow money. They’ll be able to build facilities, and they’ll be able to pay for those over the costs the students will incur to be students at SFU. That will free up housing stock in Burnaby and across the Lower Mainland so that more renters can get into the community and more students can get up onto the mountain.” On his government’s changes to the proposed specula-
tion tax after criticism: “I think British Columbians will all benefit from a government that’s humble enough to recognize an error and quick enough to respond to it, and I believe we’ve done that with the speculation tax.” On when residents can expect to see the promised new hospital built in Burnaby: “We’re working on that. … We committed to improving health-care services in
Burnaby, and we’re going to be doing that in the first term of an NDP government.” On the future of pipelines in B.C.: “I’m confident that we can put in place measures to protect our environment, meet our greenhouse gas objectives and still have a modest increase in exports of natural gas to other markets.” On his opposition to the Kinder Morgan Trans Mountain pipeline expansion:
“I respect those who are choosing to get in the way of activity at Burnaby Mountain and that they have every right to do that, but it’s my view as leader of the government of British Columbia that I should focus on those things that I can effectively bring to the debate: One, where does jurisdiction rest? And, two, did the federal government adequately assess the risks to British Columbia?” See more online at www. burnabynow.com.

City now Burnaby cat’s ashes stolen from fast food restaurant Cornelia Naylor
cnaylor@burnabynow.com
A Burnaby cat owner is hoping against hope for the return of a beloved feline’s ashes after they were stolen from a NewWestminster Burger King on St. Patrick’s Day. Zsuzsa was a private cat with knowing yellow-green eyes and the softest fur, according to owner Jennifer Steel, who got the tabby as a kitten in 2006. “She was a bit of a loner,” Steel said. “She just stuck to herself. Her favourite spot was sitting in the window, looking outside.” The 12-year-old cat wasn’t spayed until later in life, according to Steel, but never mothered a litter of kittens despite many a latenight liaison. “She got around,” Steel said with a laugh. “She got called names by my friend.” Not shy of adventure, Zsuzsa once had to get one of her teeth fixed after she lost it in a fight. And, even in death, Zsu-
zsa wasn’t done with adventures, according to Steel. The tabby was put down at theVancouver SPCA Hospital earlier this month after a brief battle with cancer, and Steel’s brother, Rowan, paid $125 for a private cremation through the

UntilWe Meet Again pet memorial centre. He agreed to pick up and deliver the cedar box containing Zsuzsa’s ashes to Steel on March 17, but he stopped for a burger on the way at the NewWestminster Burger King on Sixth Street. When he got up to leave, his bags (one of which held the cedar box) were gone,
according to Steel. She and her brother have since looked in every bin and dumpster in the area and searched the mall across the street, she said, but to no avail. NewWestminster police have obtained security video footage showing the theft and are working to identify a suspect, according to department spokesperson Sgt. Jeff Scott. “It’s still under investigation,” he said. “If what was in the bag was an urn containing the ashes of a deceased cat, that’s concerning.That’s something we would really like to get back for the owner.” Police have told Steel it’s unlikely the ashes will be found, she said, but she’s holding out hope. “I am hoping in a big way that Zsuzsa’s ashes will be returned. No questions asked,” she said. “I was just looking forward to having her on my bedroom dresser and just knowing she’s still here, even though it’s her ashes, something tangible.”

Rents drop a bit, but it’s still pricey Cayley Dobie
cdobie@burnabynow.com
What it costs to rent a one-bedroom suite in Burnaby dropped a bit in March, according to the Canadian Rent Report. One-bedroom units were renting for an average of $1,420 a month, according to the report, published every month by online rental listings site PadMapper, which analyzes rental data from listings across the country and calculates the median rents for the top 26 most populated metropolitan areas in the country. Two-bedroom units in Burnaby also dipped slightly in March.The average for a two-bedroom was $2,040 per month, down 4.2 per cent from $2,130 in Feb-
ruary. But despite the drop in average rent prices, Burnaby remained the third most expensive city in the country for renters behind Toronto and Vancouver, which have the most expensive rents across Canada, according to the report. In Vancouver, a one-bedroom will set you back an average of $2,000 a month, while a two-bedroom costs $3,150. That puts the city ahead of Toronto, where a onebedroom goes for an average $1,970 per month and a two-bedroom for $2,500. Montreal follows Burnaby on the list, with one-bedrooms at $1,300 and twobedrooms at $1,580.

6 FRIDAY March 30, 2018 • BurnabyNOW
Opinion now OUR VIEW
Protests bring out the best and the worst It was the best of times, it was the worst of times … and it’s all happening right here in our own backyard. Wisdom and foolishness, belief and incredulity, hope and despair – in true Dickensian fashion, they’re all living side by side on Burnaby Mountain with the ongoing pipeline protests. The very presence of protesters seems to bring out both the worst and the best in people.
As far as the “worst” goes, you don’t have to look much further than the comments on our own Facebook page. “Losers” and “idiots” are two of the more printable labels that have been attached to the folks turning out to join the gatherings at the gate of the Trans Mountain terminal.We’ve also read “anarchist scum,” “punks” and a variety of other less flattering epithets. As for the “best”?Well,
you can’t help but feel a few warm fuzzies when you read about a Burnaby parent like Jayeon Choi, who stopped by to check out the protests last weekend with his 15-month-old son. “I wanted to witness this together with my son,” he told the NOW. “He’s not going to remember anything, but still, I just wanted to tell him in the future I was here to participate.” And what about little El-
lie, the five-year-old who turned out with her aunt because she wanted to help save the dolphins? Or there’s the letter writer in today’s paper, Betty Guan, who writes below about how the pipeline protests have been part of a new awakening towards Indigenous issues – and to the fact that the pipeline isn’t just an Indigenous issue at all. Are there some bad seeds
among the protesters? More than likely. In any gathering of humanity, anywhere, anytime, you’re likely to find a large number of people with the best of intentions alongside a few who have no mission except to cause trouble. But to label all the protesters as “punks” or “losers” or “insert-your-own-insult-here” is to miss the very best of humanity that’s revealing itself in the people
who take time to care about the future. Whether you agree with them or not, there’s an admirable nobility in having the courage of your convictions and in standing up for what you believe in. Too bad our political leaders don’t all share that conviction. If they did, we’d be farther down the path towards a sustainable future for our planet.
INBOX LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Indigenous issues concern every one of us
Dear Editor: On March 17, I was arrested for civil contempt outside Kinder Morgan’s gates on Burnaby Mountain. Since then, I returned to the gates a number of times, meeting a variety of folks from different walks of life. Between the encouraging songs and emotional chants, we all asked each other a simple question: what brought you here? My journey to Burnaby Mountain began when I attended rallies, marches and demonstrations for Colten Boushie and Tina Fontaine. Suddenly, Indigenous issues were no longer Indigenous issues to me. They were wake-up calls for me, a settler born onto
The Kinder Morgan pipeline is not just an Indigenous issue. It is a reminder to settlers that we need to start respecting Indigenous sovereignty and rights to the land; a wake-up call to settlers who do not know how to prioritize the land, water and air over the unwanted Kinder Morgan pipeline expansion; and an opportunity for us settlers to finally get over ourselves and to give a damn about Indigenous sovereignty and the environment. Betty Guan, by email
This is a call to take bold action
Dear Editor: It is very strange that Mayor Derek Corrigan and his council can advocate for protests against Kinder Morgan for going ahead with its legitimate and lawful business activities and then act surprised that the City of Burnaby will be stuck with a huge policing bill. You would think that council would have thought of this before proceeding as they have. This leads to one of two conclusions. The first being that mayor and council didn’t do their job in understanding the repercussions of their actions and it is now time for a change in the next election. The second is that they did understand the repercussions and they were happy to have an increase in taxes to pay for policing to support their words and actions. Either way, don’t expect other Canadians to pay for actions that are aimed at destroying national wealth and jobs. Gerhard Henkemans, Edmonton
the unceded, unsurrendered Coast Salish territories. How much longer could I go without pretending like I did not benefit from being a settler? Without questioning Canada’s unjust judicial system? Without using my settler privilege to support and stand in solidarity with Indigenous communities? From one settler to another, this is a call to take bold action. This is a call out to Robert Helsley and other business school deans to be real leaders and speak up against a capitalistic system that continues to exploit Indigenous communities and ignore missing and stolen Indigenous women and youth. This is a call out to all settlers to warrior up and fight against Kinder Morgan.
Don’t expect us to pay for this

Don Brown says things haven’t changed much on the streets. “We’ve got pretty much the same trend.There’s still a very high crime rate,” he said. “Robberies are the only category that’s down.” According to the stats, the fastest growth in the crime rate took place in the first six months of the year.

Hospital is a top priority Dear Editor: Re: Former Liberal MLA should
stay out of it, Inbox, Burnaby NOW, March 14. I agree with the writer Mr. Peter Cech when he wrote that Mr. Richard Lee, former MLA for the Liberal party for Burnaby North, is not in any position to criticize the NDP on the Burnaby Hospital issue after only 33 weeks in power, when he and the Liberals didn’t do anything during their years in power. Mr. Cech says: “Mr. Lee was invisible when he was MLA for Burnaby North. He would do us all a great favour if he remained invisible.” Mr. Cech, in my opinion, you could not have been more correct, and I would like to applaud you for taking the time to put in writing what I and, I’m sure, a lot of Burnaby residents had thought. However, that said, in my opinion, the Burnaby Hospital issue should definitively be at the top of any leading political party’s priority list. Frank Di Cesare, Burnaby

Dear Editor: On March 5, I had the misfortune of getting dizzy in the middle of our restaurant meal at a Metro restaurant. My wife who was having lunch with me phoned our daughter who was available at the time and came immediately to pick us up, as I was obviously in no shape to drive. She rushed me to the ER at Burnaby Hospital right away. To make a long story short, the ER doctor found I had an extremely low level of sodium in my system and expressed serious concern that I could go into a seizure any second. They immediately went to work, giving me injections of sodium chloride besides other medications. To find the cause of my chemical imbalance, tests were performed in quick succession. I was then admitted in the evening. A week later, I was discharged on March 14 a much healthier person and with a much clearer understanding of my own bodily functions. Now that the team of dedicated doctors and passionate nursing and support staff have solved the puzzle of my sudden decline in health, I was sent home to continue outpatient treatments. Thinking back to the fateful day of March 5, the “misfortune” was exactly what I needed. It turned out to be one of the luckiest days of my retired life. I’m now enjoying life again. I sleep like a log every night and my energy level is gradually recovering. We’ve sometimes heard people complaining about long waits, etc., but from my experience the operation of a big hospital is no easy task.
They need more funding so they can provide all these services our friends south of the border and overseas can only dream about. I know because I came from a big family and most of my siblings/family live in the U.S. and Hong Kong. The next time you are canvassed to donate to any hospital, please help as best you can. They cannot supply the services without the funds. Some day you might find yourself in need of hospital service. No, these things don’t just happen to others, as I have discovered. (Albert) Chun S.

City now Alternative to towers is suburban sprawl: Corrigan
Continued from page 1 Mayor Derek Corrigan said the city is following Metro Vancouver’s growth plan by building vertical along rapid transit lines. But Douglas Road resident Taryn McKay said, “Not everybody’s going to take SkyTrain.” She said there are plenty of reasons for people to be on the road.
Corrigan said the objective is to make sure as many residents as possible are taking SkyTrain and the city has already noticed a reduced need for parking in towers because of rapid transit. The alternative to Burnaby going vertical, he said, is suburban sprawl in the Fraser Valley, which could cause commuters to clog
Propane tanks complicate fire Continued from page 1 back of the burning building. No one was injured in the blaze, according to Kirk, but the large fire at the back of the house was complicated by the presence of a number of propane tanks. “There was one propane tank that was actually involved. It was venting, so it was feeding the fire. Once
the valve is melted, you can’t really shut it off,” Kirk said. Before crews were able to knock it down, the fire penetrated into the first-floor ceiling and the second-floor roof. Firefighters don’t know what caused the blaze, but investigators were expected to be on scene at press deadline.
Burnaby roads even more than they already are. Coun. Colleen Jordan, who chairs the city’s planning committee, said a Metro Vancouver regional growth strategy determined Burnaby will need to add 2,000 residential units a year to keep up to Greater Vancouver’s growing population. Jacek Maciejewski, a
member of a strata council for a 46-year-old, 27-unit townhouse complex across the Lougheed Highway, is worried the proposed tower would have an impact on Beecher Creek, which runs behind their property. He called on the city to force the developer to pay for an independent study on the ground conditions and to pay for any environmental
damage caused to the creek by construction. “We’ve seen some erosion on the property.We have concerns future development will have damage on the property,” said Maciejewski. Many speakers complained the tower would cast a shadow and block views. But the building’s archi-
tect, Foad Rafii, said a shadow study showed it will not be an issue. He also pointed out the proposed density of the tower meets what has been outlined in the city’s Official Community Plan. The city’s planning department recommended a two-page list of conditions to be met before the rezoning application is granted.

Police identify suspects in vicious bus assault band. An argument ensued during which the second woman allegedly used her hip and shoulder to force the first woman off the seat and onto the floor, according to police. The second woman’s husband then sat down in the seat. The victim sat behind the pair and tried to take a picture of them with her cellphone, but the female suspect allegedly grabbed the phone from her and threw it on the floor. She then allegedly grabbed the victim by the hair and pulled her body over the back of the seat, hitting her head and chest on the metal handrail repeatedly while threatening to kill her, according to police. The husband separated the two women and allegedly grabbed the victim’s phone from another passenger who had picked it up off the floor. The two suspects then got off the bus at King George

Transit police have identified two suspects in a violent bus assault last week that left a 61-year-old Burnaby woman with a broken arm, cracked sternum and head trauma. Charges had not yet been laid at press time, so the names of the suspects had not been released, but MetroVancouverTransit Police received about 80 tips from the public to help with the identification of the man and woman, according to spokesperson Anne Drennan. “We’re very grateful to the public and the media for helping us with this,” Drennan said. According to police, a Burnaby woman boarded a bus at the Surrey Central SkyTrain station on March 20 and sat down next to another woman, but the second woman said she was saving the seat for her hus-
Boulevard and 88th Avenue. The victim tried to follow them to get her phone back, but the man threw it on the ground. The couple left, walking into the Bear Creek Business Plaza, according to police. The victim was taken to hospital by ambulance. “She remains extremely traumatized,” states a transit police press release. The female suspect was described as a five-foot-six South Asian woman in her 30s, with a medium build, long black hair and bad teeth. The male suspect was described as a five-foot-10 South Asian man with short dark hair, a beard and a moustache. Anyone who has any information about this incident is asked to text the MetroVancouverTransit Police at 87-77-77 or call the tip-line at 604-5167419. Refer to file number 18-5346.

Burnaby man has big dreams for his little city Grant Granger
ggranger@burnabynow.com
Hamid Farahani has hundreds of cars in his garage. And he has none. The cars are all toys he’s using in his latest miniature city project that will go on display Sunday. A full-size car? Check the street in front of his North Burnaby home.That’s where you’ll find his plumbing truck. Farahani first gained notoriety 14 years ago when he built Farahzad, a 70-square foot mini-city in his basement.The display celebrated six faiths, including his own, Baha’i, and marked the four seasons. It had 900 people and more than 200 animals and was featured in a NOW story. “This is one of my peaceful land. Everyone is working in harmony here,” said Farahani, who left his Iranian homeland after a missile hit his plumbing business during the Iran-Iraq war, as he shows off his original mini city. Although he spent more than $100,000 to make it, Farahani says he tried to sell it to the federal government for a dollar but was rebuffed because of all the different religious connotations to it. He’s made a few smaller ones since then that can be found dotted throughout his home. “I have so many ideas,” says Farahani, 58. When his daughters were small he’d take them to the toy store. He’d buy Barbies for them and little cars and toys for himself. “I bring my age to them. I raise myself with my kids,” he says with a smile. One of those inspirational ideas hit when the calendar turned a few months ago. He decided to build the Highway of Life through an imaginary Hard Rock City during the time between the Canadian new year and the Persian new year (March 20). Hard Rock City is built on a 4x8 sheet of plywood. It’s encased on the outside by wood featuring the work of Indigenous artist Anthony Joseph. Farahani points to one where the driver takes off down the Highway of Life in a vehicle from the Hard Rock City dealership. Along the way there’s a flashing sign displaying two messages: Drive Safe and Life is Short.The highway heads toward an underground parking entrance that resembles those at Metropolis at Metrotown with a multi-coloured facade. “Everybody has a different colour,” he says. But before they get there, there’s a traffic light where drivers can turn and get off to enjoy life in so many ways before heading to the salvage yard, where the old toy vehicles go to die. (“The junkyard cars are more expensive than the

dealership cars because some of them are antique.”) The yard even includes a piece that looks a lot like the Trans Am Totem, a Vancouver Biennale artwork on Quebec Street in Vancouver near Science World that has five crushed cars piled atop a tree stump. “You have to have a hobby, otherwise you go cuckoo,” says Farahani. It might keep him from going “cuckoo,” but the painstaking process he meticulously puts into each and every minute detail would drive most people crazy. The elaborate display has a river, a couple of ponds (which Farahani wants to stock with live fish), mobile homes, totem poles and three teepees painted by Joseph.
He has about 100 light standards and another 100 or so lights lining the sides of the display as well as running lights along the highway. There’s an off-road motocross rider climbing a hill and a family fishing.There’s even a little hippie van with two flower people on the roof sunning themselves au naturel while strumming a guitar. While Farahani talks, underneath the display are Benjamin Akhtary and Sheldon Wang stringing together the labyrinth of wires connecting the lights as they put together the finishing touches. The people, lamps and vehicles might be tiny, but the cost isn’t. Each streetlight, for example, is about $20 to $25, as are the packs of five or six figurines.
He hasn’t added up the cost of this project yet. All of his receipts are stuffed into a plastic shopping bag on a shelf in his garage. He’ll
I didn’t build it for myself. It’s a present to the people. do the calculations later, he says: after it’s finished and his Highway of Life goes on display at a market at Ambleside Park in West Vancouver on Sunday. Farahani’s hoping it will eventually be displayed on a rotational basis between the city halls of West
Vancouver, City of North Vancouver, District of North Vancouver and the Tsleil-Waututh First Nation band office. He wants people to see it, whether it be at an airport, a park, city hall or a library. “I didn’t build it for myself,” says Farahani. “It’s a present to the people.” A present for what the country he came to has meant to him. A country where he’s spent more time living in than he did in Iran. “This is my homeland now. I didn’t go back.This country gave me everything, so much opportunity. My country didn’t do nothing for me. I ran away from there.”

Building permits fall behind last year’s highs But numbers are still well ahead of 2016 levels
Building permits issued in Burnaby for the first two months of 2018 are lagging behind the record pace set in 2017 but are well ahead of 2016. A report to council said 252 permits, for a total of $66.9 million, were issued in January and February compared to 290 permits worth $134 million in the first two months of last year. In 2016, there were 277 permits for $57.3 million, a
drastic drop-off from 2015 when there 289 permits worth $81.5 million. CURBING SPEEDERS Burnaby city council has approved speed hump requests for six residential streets. They are for the 6800 to 7100 block of Gray Avenue (between Imperial and Victory streets), Centaurus Circle (around Simon Fraser Hills Park, a.k.a. Pea-
nut Park), the 100 block of MacDonald Avenue North (Dundas to Oxford), 6900 to 7200 of Linden Avenue (Edmonds to Imperial), 6500 to 6700 of Randolph Avenue (Imperial to Bryant), and 6400 to 6500 of Denbigh Avenue (Kingsway to Irving Street). The requests were approved at the March 26 council meeting. – Grant Granger

Beware those creeping, maladaptive thoughts DavidicusWong HEALTHWISE
editorial@burnabynow.com
It is through our stories that we make sense of our world: who we are and how we relate to others. But far too often, we fall into – and feel trapped within – the stories of our lives. We accept the roles we have been given and are typecast by others and ourselves.We speak lines written for us – passed on to us by family, schools, media and society; we unconsciously adopt the beliefs of others.We can lose our own voice. Lost in our stories, we forget that we are actors who can step out of old roles and speak our own lines.We forget that we are the playwrights – co-authors of our own stories. At the same time, your own brain can work against you! The human brain is the product of millions of years of evolution but has not kept up with human civilization.You have the same brain structure as cave
dwellers 1.3 million years ago, and you experience the same emotions.What was needed for survival in the past can cause misery in the present. If you see yourself as a victim, you may continue to feel helpless, and helplessness begets anxiety. If you cannot let go of anger, what you hold will continue to harm you. If you remember only loss and surrender to

hopelessness, that hopelessness will beget depression. If you adopt an attitude of entitlement, you will never be satisfied nor will you appreciate what you have (while you still have it). Cognitive Behavioural Therapy or CBT is one of the evidence-based approaches to emotion-
al health. It is effective in treating moderate depression and a variety of anxiety conditions. Maladaptive thoughts make us feel more angry, sad or anxious. Adaptive thoughts can improve our moods. Examples of maladaptive or harmful thoughts include, all or nothing thinking (“All is lost.” “I’ll never be good enough.”), catastrophic thinking (“It’s going to be a disaster.”), personalization (“It’s my fault that things didn’t turn out.”), overgeneralization (“I didn’t do well on the last test so I’m sure to fail the next one.” “Men (women) are all the same.”) and mind-reading (“She did that just to hurt me.”). Our moods themselves can shade our thinking. When we are anxious, we overestimate danger and challenge and underestimate our ability to manage. When we are depressed, we think negatively about ourselves, our situation and our future.When we are angry, we tend to see only our own points of view and how we

have been harmed. Deep beneath our negative or maladaptive thoughts are unquestioned assumptions and core beliefs.They may have been adopted when we were very young or reinforced by life experiences.
“I have to be perfect to earn love.” “I can’t win.” “I can’t trust anyone.” “Life is unfair.” How we recall the past, interpret the present and imagine the future is influenced by our emotion-
al state. If we get stuck in a negative emotion, we tend to think thoughts and hold beliefs that reinforce and deepen that emotion.We can therefore get stuck in a negative spiral – lifelong anger and resentment, deep chronic melancholy, and generalized anxiety. Emotions themselves are not the enemy. Each has served an important function that has helped you and your ancestors to survive. Fear alerts us to potential danger.Without reasonable fear, you would drive without your seatbelt while speeding and texting down the wrong side of the road. Without appropriate anger, you would not defend the vulnerable. Sadness reminds us of what we love and value. Dr. DavidicusWong is a family physician.

Morris a national all-star Burnaby forward helps Douglas rise to national final It was the best of times, it was the second-best of times. The Douglas College Royals finished an incredible season with a run to the Canadian Collegiate Athletic Association’s men’s basketball championship final, falling to the Seneca College Sting 86-73 two weeks ago in Laval, Que. A big reason for that was the play of Burnaby’s Reese Morris, a fourth-year forward who played some inspired hoops over the tournament’s three days. Leading by three after one quarter and a single point at halftime, the New West-based Royals saw Seneca make its move with a strong third quarter, where the Toronto team outscored Douglas 30-22 to grab a seven-point advantage. In the final quarter, the B.C. champions, who last appeared in the national final 10 years ago, put it all on the line and pulled within two points, 71-69, before the Sting regained momentum for its first national title. The Royals got 20 points and seven rebounds from Morris, while Kameron Johnson counted 18 points. Both were named to the first all-star team. Contributing eight points and 13 boards was second all-star team selection Noah DeRappard-Yuswack. In the semifinal, Douglas dropped Montmerency 93-87, thanks to a huge third quarter where they outscored the Quebec champion 31-15. In that frame, first-year guard Josiah Mastandrea of Port Coquitlam entered the game and proceeded to spark the comeback, nailing four treys as the Royals took control. Morris chipped in 10 points in the second half and finished with 16 on the day, along with seven rebounds and three blocks. Johnson led all shooters with 33 points. Douglas had opened the tourney by clipping Southern Alberta Institute of Technology (SAIT) 80-76.That game turned on a big second quarter by the Royals, where they outscored SAIT 21-12. Morris, who transferred to Douglas two years ago from Capilano University and was a big part of Douglas’ first provincial win in 10 years, counted 17 points in the win, while Grant Campbell tallied 19.

Hard-working forward exits a Steeler
Bruno to trade hockey stick for plumber’s wrench after being named Most Inspirational By Dan Olson
dolson@burnabynow.com
It was a good journey, but Burnaby’s Nico Bruno has turned the page and is already into the next chapter. The Grandview Steelers veteran is putting hockey on the backburner, taking courses towards apprenticing as a plumber. A key component to the Pacific Junior B Hockey League club’s offence the past two seasons, Bruno looks back at his junior career with few regrets and a lot of good memories. “My junior hockey career was a great time, one of the best times in my life,” said Bruno. “In my second year we made the run to the (league) final; that was a good experience. … We had a really strong team that year with a lot of depth. We had four lines that could score. “In the first round we won in Game 7 which was a great battle against Richmond. Against Delta in the second round we probably played our best hockey of the year that got us to the finals.” While that experience was never replicated, he wrapped up his Steelers career by being named the PJHL’s Most Inspirational Player earlier this month. The honour recognizes someone who made a contribution in and out of the dressing room and who helped his team elevate their game. It was a surprise, but Bruno noted it was an award he shares with his
family and teammates. “Obviously it means a lot. I put in a lot of hard work the last four years and to finally be recognized means a lot, not only to me, but my family too,” said the 20-yearold. “For all the times they supported me, and all the hard work that came to conclusion.Winning an award like that definitely means something special.” Over the past two seasons, Bruno occupied one of the team’s top-two lines and averaged nearly a point per game – counting 79 points over 85 games. His first two seasons were all about finding his comfort level, playing various roles and contributing in different ways. That’s where his blue-collar work ethic helped pave a path to a leadership role with the club. “From midget hockey to junior was a big step forward. (Junior) is a lot faster, a lot bigger guys you’re playing against, it was a lot more physical,” he noted. “Going into my rookie year I didn’t really have a whole lot of expectations, but I just tried to work hard every game and let my play do the talking.” Over the past two seasons under head coach Stevan Matic, Bruno became a key veteran who contributed in a variety of roles – from penalty killing, top-line minutes and offensive generator. It was a process, but one the Burnaby Winter Club product made eagerly. “He’s a Steeler through and
through,” noted Matic. “The way he carried himself on and off the ice, how he helped and worked to set a tone for his teammates was always about putting in 100 per cent every shift. “He definitely worked his way up to (the No. 1 line). Last season he got an opportunity to play with (veteran) Adam Rota on the wing, and (Bruno) was hard on the puck, blocked shots and created scoring chances.” This past season he counted 11 goals and 29 assists over 42 games, over streaks of wins and losses. Momentum would come and go, but Bruno said players worked hard to establish more consistency right up to the playoffs. Getting swept by the eventual playoff champion Delta Icehawks wasn’t due to effort, he said. “I think (Delta) over-powered us physically, they took it to us physi-
cally and we didn’t really have a response for that.We gave a good effort every night but it just didn’t work out in our favour.” Along with netminder Cale Dolan, who was recognized by the club as this year’s MVP, Bruno brought a blue-collar attitude to the rink, where rolling up the sleeves and getting down to business was the framework for success. He remembers Grandview’s run to the league final during his second season, and how work ethic was key to that march. “After the year we made the run to the final I definitely felt like more of a leader,” said the Burnaby North alum. “I had a really good playoffs that year. Going into the following year, in my 19th year, I really stepped up in the room, my leadership skills improved and I kind of took off from there.”
Howley, Crosologo honoured Senior distance runner Julia Howley and senior golfer Chris Crisologo were named Lorne Davies Athletes of theYear at the 2018 Simon Fraser University Athletic Awards on Tuesday that recognized the top performing student-athletes. Howley qualified for three different national championships and was a four-time All-American in a spectacular senior season. She led the crosscountry team to its first-ever unbeaten regular season and finished 10th at nationals. In track, Howley was ninth in the outdoor 1500-metre race and 12th in the indoor 3000m at the NCAA championships. Crisologo turned in a season for the ages, winning the conference’s and West Region Player of theYear, and was NCAA All-American First Team. He became the youngest member of Canada’s national amateur squad and the first Canadian to win the South American Amateur.

SPORTS BRIEFS
Luo finishes fourth on Maple Leaf golf tour Burnaby’s Andy Luo put in a second round that would have put him in contention – if struggles on Day 1 and 3 didn’t dampen his sights. Luo finished the Maple Leaf Junior Golf Tour’s Humber College PGM Classic tied for fourth in the juvenile boys division after a threeday total of 231. He stood 10 strokes off the pace and eighth overall following an opening 80, but climbed the charts with an even-par 72 on the second day at the University Golf Course in Vancouver. His Day 2 score was boosted by 12 par holes and three birdies. The third round, which saw Luo finish up with a 79, was played at Coquitlam’s Vancouver Golf Course. Luo’s final tally left him tied for fourth overall, one shot back of third and 16 back of the lead. In peewee boys competition, AlfredYeung had a solid first round of 80 but fell back of the front runners with scores of 89 and 91 (260) to place seventh overall. Bradley Gagnon shook off a rough start in the junior boys division by
firing rounds of one-over 73 and 76 to finish eighth overall. His overall score of 234 was inflated due to an opening round of 85, where a triplebogey on the second hole was part of a 10-over on the front nine. In under-15 girls play, 10-year-old Luna Lu put in a strong showing in finishing in a three-way tie for sixth overall.The youngest of all the 19 girls who finished the tournament, Lu fired rounds of 79, 80 and 83 (242) to fall just 11 shots back of the leader, Richmond’s Tina Jiang (231). MEDALS TALLY IN JIU-JITSU A couple members of Burnaby’s Infight Canada Jiu-Jitsu school returned from an international competition in California with medals. Infight coach and athlete Eduardo Cadena, 39, picked up bronze at the International Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Federation Pans in the black belt of master 2/medium-heavy division, while Michael Ebaghetti, 31, collected a pair of bronze medals in blue belt in master 1/super-heavy and open weight class divisions.

The Panthers’ girls squad posted the sixth-best tally, led by a third all-around performance from Level 1 senior Michelle Mai. Mai took gold on parallel bars and placed fourth overall on vault.
