I
went to Burnaby Mountain early on Saturday morning to check out the former Camp Cloud site that was dismantled last week. I spent about an hour and a half sitting on a stump in front of the Kinder Morgan tank farm entrance on Shellmont Street, waiting for people to walk by so I could interview them for a story. I was just about to leave when I saw something moving out of the corner of my eye. I looked up and, maybe eight-to-10 metres away, I saw what I thought was a baby cougar. It came out from the bushes near the trail east of the tank farm, and just casually wandered toward the fence. I was kind of freaked out. Now that the camp is gone, the area is pretty deserted. I think I only saw

Should I get closer? If I do, I might get a great photo. I stepped back closer to the road, but got out my camera, just in case it reappeared. It did.This time, it popped out from behind the bushes and crossed in front of the gates. We made eye contact and it walked toward me. It seemed as scared as I was. It quickly ducked its head and wandered around the security box and headed west along the path. Phew! Crisis averted, and I got pretty nice photos too.

Mixed reaction to end of Camp Cloud
The NOW spoke with some area residents in the aftermath of a City of Burnaby eviciton of the protest camp Lauren Boothby
editorial@burnabynow.com
A tarp, a totem pole and a small memorial is all that is left of Camp Cloud’s protest site on Burnaby Mountain. Residents of nearby neighbourhoods are conflicted about the City of Burnaby’s decision to demolish the camp and evict its residents last Thursday. The camp created tension in the neighbourhoods surrounding the tank farm. At one point, a group of Forest Grove residents presented a petition to the city asking them to remove it. Camp Cloud protesters monitored the movements of Trans Mountain workers at the tank farm since November 2017.The camp grew from a single trailer to include multiple wooden structures over the nine months. Nearby residents still appear to be divided in their opinions on Camp Cloud. Frank Palmieri walks his dog up Underhill Avenue past the tank farm every day.While he supports the right to protest, he says the size of the camp became a problem. He was also concerned that the “sacred fire” was a safety hazard. “The camp got overgrown too fast.They were too big.They were putting up structures they shouldn’t,” he told the NOW.
PARTING WORDS: Someone left a kind message at the site of Camp Cloud. But Palmieri said all his interactions with the group were peaceful, and he wasn’t personally bothered too much by the camp. He said he understands Indigenous groups’ opposition to the pipeline for environmental reasons. He also doesn’t take any issue with protests outside the terminal, as long as they don’t continue overnight. “The camp just kept growing, and growing and growing,” he said. “People took exception to it. ... It was shabby-looking. It didn’t
become a protest anymore, it became a housing problem.” Rosanne Horychun lives near Forest Grove Elementary and regularly jogs near the tank farm. She said it was unfortunate the city removed the camp and doesn’t feel like the government was listening to residents’ safety concerns with the pipeline. “I don’t think the people who were up here camping had their voice taken seriously by the federal government or by Kinder Morgan,” she said. “I had no prob-

lem with (the protesters.) They left us alone, and actually, they were quite friendly, and quite hospitable, actually.” Horychun is not be alone in her views. On Saturday, thank you notes were seen placed on the ground where the protest camp stood earlier this week. Jeff Jang was cycling on the path near the tank farm Saturday morning. He said he understood what the protest group was trying to accomplish. “They tried to make a point.
They protested, they came on to the site, did what they could, government came in, bought the site, now its ended, and they asked them to leave,” he said. “I think it was a valid stance, but as the government always proves to be the stronger hand and always do what they want to do.” Sam Smith, who has lived in Forest Grove for 30 years, walked to the tank farm site with his son to see what was left of the site. “Just because something was there for a while, it’s kind of jarring to look at it, a little bit now. Also, a little sad,” he said. “I just wanted to check things out because I support their right to protest.” Smith said he knows the camp has been a divisive topic among his neighbours, although he doesn’t think the division was as deep as it could sometimes seem on social media. “I don’t think it’s as black and white ... there are degrees of support and, of course, there’s people who support the oil industry,” he said. “But I don’t think it was as savage as it can feel like sometimes, especially when you go on something like a Facebook group and you get some very strong opinions coming through from some very vocal people. “I think, overall, people are still as they always are: good.”
Streamkeeper disappointed by officials’ response Blames lack of staffing at federal fisheries Continued from page 1 Ensuring local fish populations remain healthy is vital,Templeton said, “because water is life, and if you have a creek with fish in it that tells you that that water is probably safe to drink. “Why do people want to live in communities with trees, with water, with fish? Because it’s good for the heart, it’s good for the soul, it makes us feel good.” Templeton said he was disappointed in the response from officials who failed to respond promptly to his report of the fish kill. He faults the lack of staffing, especially from Fisheries and Oceans Canada (commonly known as the Department of Fisheries and Oceans, or DFO). A DFO spokesperson confirmed a report of the incident had been received but said it fell under the purview of another federal body called Environment and Climate Change Canada because the fish were killed by toxic substances. An ECCC spokesperson said its staff are currently collecting information about the incident. If it is determined that regulations have been contravened there could be enforcement measures down the road, the spokesperson said. B.C.’s Ministry of Environment and Climate Change Strategy also received a report of the incident, its spokesperson said.

Doctor diagnoses climate change as fire cause
Kelvin Gawley
kgawley@burnabynow.com
Where there’s smoke, there are wildfires – and a grave reminder of the threat climate change poses to public health, according to a local environmentalist and physician. “Right now, parents can’t let their children outside because it’s not safe to breathe this air for any amount of time. Newborns cannot go outside at all because they’re too young and vulnerable. People who have chronic health conditions can’t go outside and have to wear masks if they urgently must. Older people have been dying of their health complications because the air is dirty.” That’s the message Dr. Stephanie von Dehn wanted to send from a protest outside the Trans Mountain Westridge Marine Terminal Monday. The terminal is being expanded to accommodate more oil tankers, as part of Kinder Morgan’s planned twinning of the pipeline from Edmonton to Burnaby that would nearly triple its capacity. Von Dehn, a family doc-
tor from the Lower Mainland, was among a few dozen people at a Monday morning demonstration who looked on as five people were arrested for blocking the terminal’s driveway. Organizers billed it as a doctor-led protest meant to highlight the various health impacts of an expanded pipeline. It was the first in a week of planned “bold action” demonstrations led by different groups. “When my own friends’ homes are just about to be burned down, and my own neighbours can’t breathe and can’t let their kids outside, and my own patients have to go the hospital because they can’t breathe despite all the puffers and best efforts – that’s why I’m here.You can’t just stand by, at least I can’t,” von Dehn said. According to von Dehn, the connection between the wildfire haze choking much of the province and the Trans Mountain pipeline is simple – an expanded pipeline means expanded tar sands, which will lead to more greenhouse gases, more climate change and more wildfires. That connection is real,

and backed by science, according to SFU professor Tim Takaro. While the causes and conditions of a particular fire or wildfire season are myriad and complicated, he said there’s no denying climate change has worsened conditions and led to some of the worst fire seasons in record in recent years.
“The bottom line is, increased temperatures and dry conditions increase the risk of wildland fires.What increases temperatures and dry conditions? Climate change.” Those dry conditions turn our forests into pools of gasoline,Takaro said. Nearly 2,000 fires have burned more than 600,000
hectares of B.C. so far this year. “This is the new normal, and that new normal is driven by climate change,” he said. Von Dehn said she has already purchased an electric car, moved to an apartment with electric heating and stopped eating dairy and meat.The next logical step
was to reduce her medical practice hours to commit more time to environmental activism, she said. “This is far too important.This is the crisis of our century.This is not a fight we can sit out,” she said. “We can’t just let the air quality get worse and worse and worse like this.” While von Dehn stood aside while fellow protesters were arrested on Monday, she has joined past direct action blockades. In May, she was taken into custody for violating the court injunction forbidding interference with work on the Trans Mountain pipeline. Criminal contempt of court charges were later dropped, thanks to a mistake made by the RCMP, she said. But she said she “absolutely” is willing to put her freedom on the line again to prevent the pipeline project from going ahead. After marching, chanting, writing letters and signing petitions, she said, “The only thing left for me to do is get arrested, because that gets one more bit of attention to this incredibly important issue.”
Protesters say they’re ‘political prisoners’ Burnaby’s Susan Lambert released from jail early after blocking gates kgawley@burnabynow.com
Five pipeline protesters released from jail Sunday claimed to be “political prisoners.” The group included Order of Canada recipient Jean Swanson and the former president of the B.C.Teachers’ Federation, Burnaby’s Susan Lambert.The five were released after spending
five days in jail. All had been sentenced to seven days imprisonment on Wednesday but were released early. Most offenders in B.C. are released sometime after two-thirds of their sentence has been served if they have displayed good behaviour. “We were imprisoned because we are opposed to the (Kinder Morgan) pipeline expansion, which poses
such a terrible threat to our planet,” reads a hand-written press release signed by all five activists. “Yes, prison conditions are harsh, but we were political prisoners.We are not criminals, we violated the injunction because we are so terribly aware that emissions from fossil fuels are destroying our climate, our planet and our children’s future.”
The five people released Sunday are among more than 200 individuals who have been arrested for violating a B.C. Supreme Court injunction meant to prevent interference with work on the pipeline project. Swanson is currently running for a seat on Vancouver’s city council with the left-wing Coalition of Progressive Electors (COPE).

Opinion now OUR VIEW
Day of reckoning part of facing the ugly truth
To mark the suffering of the approximately 150,000 Indigenous children forced into residential schools, the federal government is planning a new statutory holiday. We support that plan – if it’s done right. After all, we take a solemn day every year to reflect on our war dead without letting Remembrance Day turn into a series of patio parties and mattress sales. Today, schoolchildren learn about the horror of residential schools. In the City of NorthVancouver, for example, the
municipal council discusses the 2,000 Squamish,TsleilWaututh and Sechelt Nation kids who were “aggressively assimilated” at St. Paul’s Indian Residential School. Things have definitely changed for the better, but a quick glance at the comments section of any news website or politician’s Facebook page makes it clear there are swaths of people who still just don’t get it – or who don’t want to get it. These are the same willfully ignorant blowhards who complain that the removal of a John A. Macdon-
Taking away his statue is so Indigenous people don’t have to face such an ugly reminder. ald statue fromVictoria’s city hall is erasing history. It’s true, John A. was our most important father of Confederation. He was also the father of a government policy to starve Indigenous people. To Indigenous people, he was the architect of a program that has destroyed generations of families.
The idea of taking away his statue is so Indigenous people don’t have to face such an ugly reminder whenever they walk into this particular government building. If you aren’t Indigenous, then you won’t understand the pain suffered by generations. So maybe try understanding that it’s not “PC
culture” but recognizing our country’s long history of terrible treatment of Indigenous people. Ironically, the controversy over removing the statue has done more to educate people than an artist’s bronze work ever could. Both the statue and holiday are only symbols, however, not a substitute for clean drinking water or infrastructure on reservations throughout the country. Canadians are often smug when they look at the U.S. and see that Flint, Michigan residents have been without clean drinking wa-
ter for a long time. But in Canada, there are an estimated 93 reserves that have not had drinkable water in many years, in some cases decades. Residents have to boil it first. Would you put up with that? If you aren’t Indigenous, would you even have to put up with that? Our national policy of unintentional and intentional abuse ruptured families and caused harm that can still be seen and felt today. That’s an ugly truth, but if we ever hope to achieve reconciliation, we all need to start with the truth.

B.C.’s budget is on razor’s edge The BC NDP will provide its first official update of government finances soon, and there are indications things are not as rosy as they appeared in the budget when it was tabled in February. While it is not likely to tip into a deficit, the bottom line may be perilously close to doing just that. The biggest area of concern for Finance Minister Carole James has to be the dramatic slowdown in the housing market. Some have theorized that what has driven B.C.’s impressive economic growth has been the red-hot real estate sector. It has become a $50-billion-a-year industry for economic activity and government revenue. The budget forecast revenues to government generated by the property transfer tax would increase by $100 million to more than $2.2 billion. And other areas of taxation – income and sales taxes – have also been boosted by spinoff activities from what has been a busy market. But the slump in the market will undoubtedly eat into those projected revenue estimates. Just how much the hit will be will not be known until next spring, but the government’s first quarterly financial report is a start. The Real Estate Board of GreaterVancouver recently released statistics that showed a whopping 30 per cent decline in home sales in the region when comparing July 2018 sales figures to the ones in July 2017.
And the July sales figures of this year were down almost 15 per cent from June, which suggests sales are continuously declining. If sales decline by 20 per cent over the course of the year, that could cost the government hundreds of millions of dollars in lost revenue. James’ budget is projecting a surplus of $219 million and has built in a cushion of $900 million in contingencies and a forecast allowance. But the costs incurred from fighting wildfires will likely take a big chunk of that, and any large slippage in property transfer taxes could consume the rest.The irony is James and her party promised to make housing prices more affordable and while they have started to fall, affordability is still nowhere in sight. Meanwhile, those increased housing taxes may threaten a balanced budget. SALUTE TO THE PNE I’d like to give a shoutout to the PNE. I worked 10 consecutive fairs as a teenager. It remains a great employer of youth, who can make a tidy sum over the course of the fair just in time to head back to school. So even if there are some hazy spots on B.C.’s economic horizon, here’s hoping the annual fair does well and continues to be a traditional beacon of employment opportunities for young people (and older ones as well). Keith Baldrey is chief political correspondent for Global BC.

What’s the frequency, SFU?
Years of applying was near paydirt in June when Simon Fraser University was given permission by the CRTC to broadcast on the FM dial – if they can find a new frequency. It may take a few months, SFU’s radio station manager said of going on the air, but it was a huge step in the process.The underlying issue is the frequency needs to reach east and west, but not south, where it could interfere with nearby American radio stations. Eventually, CJSF 90.1 FM would hit the airwaves.

Burnaby not to blame for loss of Fry society project Editor: Re: Burnaby turning into a place only for affluent, NOW letters, Aug. 8. I wish to correct some of the information provided by Greg Bourgeois. Regarding the Elizabeth Fry Society proposal of 2008, the city has supported their important work since 1977, with a $1-per-year lease for a group home on city-owned lands. Council supported the society’s proposal for a 16-unit transitional and supportive housing development at 5170 Hastings St., advancing the rezoning application through public hearing and second reading. To support the intended use of the property, the parking requirements were reduced by Burnaby council to one space for every two units, from the zoning standard of 1.6 spaces per unit. The city supported the parking reduction for this site from the requirement of 26 residential parking spaces to the proposed eight parking spaces. As such, the statement made by the letter writer is incorrect – the city did not insist that parking be provided for each apartment, and this was not reason for the Elizabeth Fry Society not being able to advance the project. The provincial government of the day, in 2008, withdrew the funding prior to completion of the rezoning process. Despite the city’s efforts to recover support for the project, the provincial government, at the time, failed to provide funding, and the project
was withdrawn by the society. Burnaby continues to seek new ways to contribute to a range of housing for all income levels and needs, such as implementation of rental-only zoning and further partnerships on non-market housing projects. I invite Mr. Bourgeois, and all Burnaby residents, to further explore Burnaby’s affordable housing programs and achievements. I think they will find plenty of which to be proud. Lou Pelletier, director of planning and building, City of Burnaby
Your untreated Hearing Loss affects the ones you love.
More words start with the letter ‘S’ than any other letter. But if you have a hearing loss it can feel as though those words have been removed from your hearing dictionary. You have probably also lost the ability to hear the letters ‘F-P-K & T’. With untreated hearing loss, you won’t be hearing those words either. Hearing aids from NexGen Hearing can put the words back and make hearing easier.
Water feature at the new Willingdon Linear Park doesn’t make any sense
Editor: Can someone please tell me what the point is of having an interesting “waterfall spouting fountain” structure (at Willingdon Linear Park) that is not community user-friendly? When the water “falls,” it splashes the large stone monuments below and no one has any access to the water, except for the puddles it creates. Was it meant to be like this? There are many children in the area that I am sure would love the fun of having an accessible waterfall to play under. As we currently are on water restrictions, maybe this water should be conserved? I think this structure should be either redesigned to make it more community user-friendly or shut them off. It is sad to see such a waste of water. Valerie Fortin, Burnaby

A “NO DUMPING” sign put up by the City of Burnaby was no match for the laziness of one or more people who needed to get rid of their junk. As can be seen by a photo posted on Twitter by Carrie McLaren – who tweets @cwalkker – a load of furniture was dumped on Horne Street just east of Gaglardi Way, right next to the sign. A frustrated McLaren tweeted it out to the city, along with a message for residents: “If u can dump it

According to a story the NOW did on city-wide illegal dumping in May, some of the hot-spots for dumping in Burnaby are at Barnet Highway and Cariboo Road, 18th Street and 11th Avenue,Venture Street and Lake City Way, and in cul-de-sacs at Manchester Drive, and off Cardston Court, and Horne Street. The City of Burnaby is using cameras in some of these locations to catch dumpers.

Duthie residents want road blocked North end of Duthie has had dramatic increase in traffic, say residents
Kelvin Gawley
kgawley@burnabynow.com
Audrey Flagel hasn’t been able to enjoy the hot summer months on the patio of her North Burnaby townhouse. “Quality of life is not enjoyable, listening to the traffic continuously,” she said. “I might as well be sitting on a highway.” In the six years she’s lived in the complex between Duthie Avenue and Barnet Highway, Flagel said the amount of traffic has in-
creased dramatically. Commuters take Duthie, to access Barnet Highway via Ridge Drive, she says. It’s the volume and speeds of vehicles that bothers Flagel and her neighbours, 40 of whom signed a petition presented to the City of Burnaby’s public safety committee in May. “We’ve become an extension of Barnet Highway,” she said. “When I open my windows, it feels like the traffic is coming through my place.” Flagel wants to see the
Ridge Drive access to Barnet closed off entirely and Duthie reserved for neighbourhood traffic only. “Some residents may use (the highway access), but for all intents and purposes it just causes us excessive noise, high vehicle emissions, and it’s not necessary because it doesn’t serve a purpose for us.” Since speaking to the municipal committee, Flagel said she hasn’t received any updates about a promised review of the situation by city staff.
The chair of the committee, Coun. Pietro Calendino, said he wasn’t present for the meeting when Flagel’s group presented and wasn’t sure if a review had been completed at this time. But he didn’t think much could be done. “Duthie is a major thoroughfare; I’m not sure that we can block it because a few people don’t like the traffic,” he said. “I live on a major street, Hastings, I would like to block the traffic from Coquitlam. Can I do that? No.”

Smoke gets in your eyes: Hazy skies over Cariboo Park Monday morning were a visual sign of poor air quality. PHOTO JULIE MACLELLAN
Burnaby air hits dubious mark Julie MacLellan
jmaclellan@burnabynow.com
The glowing red sun behind the haze was a good clue not all was normal in the sky over Burnaby on Monday morning. The city exceeded 10 – the highest-risk air category – on Metro Vancouver’s air quality health index scale, with five of Burnaby’s six monitoring stations coming in at 11 as of 8 a.m. on Monday.The sixth, Burnaby Mountain, came it at a nine, also considered a very high risk. Though Burnaby Mountain’s had gone down to a four as of press time Tuesday, the other five monitoring stations remained at 10. On an international scale, that put Burnaby into some dubious company. According to aqicn.org, which offers a real-time air quality map with data from more than 60 countries around the world, Burnaby South on Monday was sitting at a 165 on its air quality scale – falling into its Unhealthy zone. A score of 300-plus is considered Hazardous, while 201 to 300 is considered Very Unhealthy.
Kensington Park and Burnaby North were at 190, closing in on the Very Unhealthy zone. For comparison, that put Burnaby’s air quality on par with world cities such as Delhi, India (173); Mumbai, India (187); Lima, Peru (168) and Ankara,Turkey (151). The air in Beijing and Shanghai, China was considered moderate, and substantially better than Burnaby’s, at the same time: Beijing came in at a 65 and Shaghhai at a 61. And Dhaka, Bangladesh? That was reporting in at 63. An air quality advisory is still in effect for all of Metro Vancouver thanks to the elevated levels of fine particulate matter in the air, stemming from the wildfire smoke that’s blanketing British Columbia. Health Canada’s air quality health information says that those at risk – those with heart or lung problems or diabetes – should reduce or reschedule strenuous activities outdoors. Children and older adults should take it easy. See www.airmap.ca for up-to-date air quality info.

Need part-time child care? Here’s your answer Cayley Dobie
cdobie@burnabynow.com
Parents who need an hour or two to run errands or go to a doctor’s appointment are encouraged to leave their little ones at Burnaby Family Life’s occasional child-care centre. The program, which started about two years ago, offers parents access to flexible child care Monday to Saturday.This isn’t full-time care – this is a program that takes little ones for a few hours here and there, according to director Michelle Chien. “It’s meant for parents who use it occasionally. So for people who have a doctor’s appointment and they don’t want to bring their kids, (or) they have a job interview or things come up and they can’t bring their kids along –even grocery shopping or cleaning the house,” she told the NOW. Chien would like to see more parents take advantage of the service. To sign up, parents have to buy a membership and then they can book their kids in to the centre as needed, as long as 48 hours’ notice is given.The centre has space for 16 kids, but Chien says it’s never full. “We probably have, I
would say, about 20 kids that use it quite regularly right now at this point, and of course we would like to have more,” she said. Annual memberships are $50 and child care is $15 per hour per child, and because it is an occasional use service, kids are limited to 40 hours per month. Chien admits it is an expensive service, but there are packages parents can buy that lessen the hourly rate. Right now, parents can get a 20-hour pass for $280 ($14 per hour) or a 40-hour pass for $510 ($12.75 per hour). “We are in a licensed child-care facility, we have ECEs (early childhood educators) or EC assistants working, and everybody is qualified,” she said. “We always have an ECE and then the second person, depending on the ratio, will be either another ECE or an EC assistant.” And there is always two people working at a time, no matter the number of kids, she added. “In a licensed facility, there is that comfort for me,” she said. Chien started the program after her second child was born. She was looking for part-time work and needed part-time child care.
DROP ON BY: Michelle Chien with her daughters Lauren (left) and Elise (right) at the Burnaby Family Life occasional child-care centre. Chien is the director of the occasional child-care program and would like to see more parents use the service. PHOTO CHUNG CHOW
She hopes by getting the word out that the service exists, she’ll see more parents sign their kids up and, ultimately, make the program more viable. “For a lot of families, they don’t need care full time.
Burnaby nurse will serve on Mercy Ship in Africa Kelvin Gawley
kgawley@burnabynow.com
Burnaby’s Melinda Piechnik is taking time off work to spend two months on a boat, but the trip will be anything but a cruise. The 26-year-old nurse will spend most of September and October on the Africa Mercy, the world’s largest charity hospital ship. The boat will be anchored at the port of Conakry, Guinea as its crew of roughly 450 provide surgeries to thousands of patients. Piechnik will support young patients as they recover from a variety of lifealtering operations. She will bring them medication, manage their pain and teach their families to care for them after they leave the ship. “This is literally changing their lives,” she said. “So
even though I’m only going to serve for two months or so, this is going to be a complete life change for them. I just wanted to give back in that way.”
Part of my world view has to do with serving and being a servant leader.
Piechnik said she is fortunate to be able to take the time off to volunteer for the mission, thanks to her status as a casual Fraser Health employee working at Royal Columbian and Surrey Memorial hospitals. The Trinity Western University grad said she is driv-
en to volunteer, in part, by her Christian faith. “Part of my world view has to do with serving and being a servant leader – going over there to serve these people, not for your own gain per se, just to make a difference in these peoples’ lives.” The 499-foot Africa Mercy will spend about 10 months at the Conakry port, during which time the Mercy Ships organization plans to provide more than 2,000 surgeries on board and more than 6,000 at a dental clinic on land. The Mercy Ships organization has provided health care to impoverished people in more than 70 countries since its founding in 1978. More nurses are being sought for the Guinea trip. More information can be found at mercyships.com/ volunteer.
They don’t.They have family, they can work part time or they can arrange shifts or their spouses can cover some of the time. So they don’t need care full time, but this gives them the opportunity to do some of the
things they need to do occasionally,” she said. The Burnaby Family Life occasional child-care centre, located at 6140 McKercher Ave., is open Monday to Saturday from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. It’s open to kids 18
months to five years (kids phase out on their sixth birthday) and you don’t have to be a Burnaby resident.To sign up to use the service, go to www.burnabyfamilylife.org/childcare and click on occasional care.

The next wave: A story on Youth Volunteering By Volunteer Burnaby Community Special Events coordinator Tori Christianson
Throughout the year, Volunteer Burnaby helps plan many different events in the community, such as Hats Off Day, The Edmonds City Fair, Canada Day Celebrations, and World Rivers Day. In supporting these events, Volunteer Burnaby deploys a dedicated team of mostly student volunteers from the community known as the VB Hive. Whether it is setting up the event, operating crafts for children, or assisting in cleanup, this team comes ready and eager with a wealth of experience. The VB Hive not only greatly impacts the success of these community events, but it also provides an outstanding opportunity for young people looking to volunteer. To highlight this latter point one need to look no further than Madison and Isabelle, two students who are a part of the VB Hive and have made significant contributions in 2018. Madison and Isabelle are both grade 11 students in Burnaby who enjoy spending time with their friends and soaking up the highschool experience. But what sets them apart from their peers is their community mindedness shown through volunteerism. “[Volunteering] gives me a chance to meet people of like minds and to share wonderful experience with
others” Isabelle states. She tells me a story about an experience with the VB Hive this summer. “I was volunteering in June for Hats Off Day and one of my duties was to go give out balloons and programs about the event. While walking on the street and giving out one balloons, I met my teacher and her two children. Her children were very pleased to get a balloon… Weeks after in school, my teacher mentioned how proud she was of me. She couldn’t believe I spent my whole Saturday volunteering. In that moment, I knew that volunteering made a difference”. Spending time with Volunteer Burnaby has even encouraged these girls to give back to other initiatives. For Isabelle this includes volunteering at her school at the French Immersion Graduation and the Parent Walkabout; and for Madison it has led her to other organizations, such as the Heart and Stroke Foundation and the BC Guide Dog Association. Both girls have big dreams for their futures. Isabelle plans to attend post-secondary school and discover what her passion is, while Madison dreams of one day being a CBSA officer and a certified yoga instructor. Madison also wants to start her own non-profit organization in order to help people and to support different causes. “Volunteering has a lot of impact on someone or something
even if it’s just a few hours of their time [that they are contributing]” Madison says. Volunteering not only benefits those who are being helped, but it also benefits the volunteers as well. Madison states “I feel volunteering is beneficial to many individuals because not only are we giving our time to help other people but we’re also giving ourselves the opportunity to make new friends.” The VB Hive echoes Madison’s belief and prioritizes comradery between all fellow volunteers. Despite being busy students, Madison and Isabelle continue to show their support for Volunteer Burnaby and the VB Hive. Students are often faced with many different activities to juggle, and it can seem difficult to find the time to volunteer. But these girls are convinced that the sacrifice is worth it. “Giving some of your time to a valuable cause during the summer will make you feel connected to your community.” Isabelle says. “For someone who’s never volunteered before I would tell them [to] at least try, it doesn’t hurt to try and you never know what opportunities it could bring you”Madisonconcludes.The time and effort that Madison
and Isabelle have put into volunteering in the community is remarkable, and both demonstrate qualities of hard working individuals with a passion for helping the community. Volunteer Burnaby is always welcoming new members to join the VB Hive! If you would like to volunteer alongside Madison and Isabelle email Volunteerburnaby@gmail.com for more information and check out www.govolunteer.ca for all volunteer opportunities.

Gongga while making art in Vancouver,” explain co-curators Ellen van Eijnsbergen and Jennifer Cane in a press release. “These works represent two parallel journeys of the self, and in this exhibition we have attempted to accompany her on these travels.” In her youth,Wong worked at her family’s business, Modernize Tailors, a fixture in Vancouver’s Chinatown neighbourhood. As a young adult, she studied Chinese brush painting in Hong Kong, and she graduated from Vancouver School of Art with a degree in creative printmaking. She moved to NewYork City at age 36 to continue her studies at the Pratt Graphics Center, where she then spent 20 years teaching students.

The Burnaby Art Gallery is getting ready to represent a retrospective of the work of master Canadian printmaker Anna Wong. Anna Wong:Traveller on Two Roads is on at the gallery from Aug. 31 to Nov. 3. An opening reception is set for Aug. 30 at 7 p.m. Wong, who was born and raised in Vancouver’s Chinatown, had a career that spanned seven decades before her death in 2013.The Burnaby exhibition will examine Wong’s life between the West Coast of Canada and NewYork City, as well as extensive travels through China – with more than 70 original artworks, including paintings, hand-pulled prints and large-scale textile pieces. “Whether Wong was creating work in the city or in her isolated West Coast studio, she was always working with images in stark contrast from her present surroundings: establishing an ‘elsewhere’ through tableaus of fern and maple leaves while living in Manhattan; or through scenes of the Great Wall and Mount

BACK TO SCHOOL HOW TO EASE KIDS’ TRANSITION TO A NEW SCHOOL Being the new kid in school can be a tall order for youngsters. Children who change schools may face a host of challenges that studies suggest can affect both their social and academic development. In a 2010 study that followed students who entered kindergarten in 1998 through 2007, the Government Accountability Office found that 13 percent of students changed schools four or more times by the end of eighth grade. Such mobility can adversely affect students, as a study of 13,000 students in the city of Chicago found that children who had changed schools four or more times by the sixth grade were roughly a year behind their classmates. In addition to the toll transferring schools can take on their academic performance, students also may experience difficulty assimilating into their new schools. Though there’s no formula to make such transitions easier, parents can try various strategies to help their kids successfully adjust to new schools. Speak with children about the transition. Pathways.org, a not-for-profit organization devoted to providing free child development information to parents and health professionals, recommends parents speak with their children about transitioning to a new school. Encourage children to share what excites and worries them about the transition. The way parents discuss transitions can go a long way toward shaping how kids view the change.
Stay true to your routine. Pathways also recommends parents of students who are transitioning to a new school do their best to replicate first day of school routines from years past. Some familiar traditions might help calm kids’ concerns about their first day in a new school. Assimilate into a new community before the school year begins. The education resource Edweek.org notes that the most common causes of students changing schools are residential moves related to parents’ jobs or financial instability. Parents on the lookout for a new job or those who may need to relocate for financial reasons may want to delay moving until the current school year has ended. Moving between school years gives families time to acclimate to their new communities. That means kids will get time to make new friends. Some familiar faces on the first day at a new school can go a long way toward alleviating the fears children may have.
have good attendance and exhibit stronger social skills than children whose parents do not involve themselves in their children’s school. It stands to reason that students transferring to a new school may benefit from parental involvement even more than other students, as seeing their parents approach a new school with excitement and energy may inspire children to follow suit. Transitioning to a new school is not easy for many students. But parents can help smooth that transition in various ways.
Volunteer at your child’s new school. Parental involvement at school can have a profound impact on children. The National Education Association notes that children whose parents are involved at school are more likely to perform academically than students whose parents are uninvolved. In addition, such students are more likely to

Mawji takes top 20
Burnaby’s Hanif Mawji pushed it to the playdowns before getting bumped at the Boccia International Sports Federation’s (BISFed) 2018 World Boccia championships in Liverpool, England last week. Mawji was eliminated after the final pool round contest, falling short of advancing to the round of 16. Brazil’s Guiherme Moraes took advantage of some early opportunities to get ahead of Mawji on the scoreboard, stealing three points off first balls to put the Burnaby competitor in a chasing game. “Hanif appeared to be low on energy today, having to play first thing in the morning and then the last match of the day, with both being close matches,” said Team Canada head coach Mario Delisle. “However, he will place approximately 20th, which is very close to his current world ranking slot.” Mawji competes in B1 division, which is for athletes with severe impairment in all four limbs. Earlier, he began the competition with a big 4-2 win, scoring three points in the third end to take a 4-1 lead and hold on over the final end.

SFU the pick of the pack in pre-season soccer poll
The men’s Clan aims for three-peat on the pitch as Great Northwest Athletic Conference champions
Fresh off a second consecutive conference title and its sixth championship in the past eight years, Simon Fraser University enters the 2018 campaign as unanimous favourites to defend its title in the 2018 Great Northwest Athletic Conference Preseason Men’s Soccer coaches poll. The Clan received all seven first-place votes, thanks to the presence of seven returning starters from last year’s club. And in a national overview, SFU finds itself ranked No. 20 by the 2018 United Soccer Coaches Division 2 national preseason poll. Simon Fraser joins Cal Poly Pomona (No. 4) and Point Loma (No. 23) as the only West Region teams included in the national preseason top-25 ranking. Last season, Clint Schneider’s team took home its second straight GNAC title with a 7-23 conference record. Simon Fraser advanced to the Div. 2 men’s championship, where it suffered a 2-1 loss in the opening round to Cal Poly Pomona.
The Clan’s dominance was on display time and again in 2017 as they put together a pair of sixmatch unbeaten streaks throughout the year. SFU led all teams in goals, shots and fewest goals allowed last season. Finishing with an overall 113-4 mark, the squad outshot opponents by a 278-115 margin and averaged 2.11 goals per game. It only lost two regular season matches, both in GNAC action (at Concordia and at Montana State Billings).The conference title was the program’s sixth since joining the GNAC in 2010. The Clan return with a block of standouts, including brothers Marcello Polisi and Matteo Polisi. Marcello was named the GNAC Player of theYear as a freshman last season, starting all 18 matches and logging nearly 1,500 minutes. Matteo, meanwhile, earned allconference and GNAC Freshman of theYear honours after tallying 10 goals and four assists in his first season in Burnaby. Now in his senior season, mid-
fielder Mamadi Camara is back after being named First Team All-GNAC and United Soccer Coaches All-West Region. Camara helped his side dominate the middle of the pitch while also scoring six goals in 2017. Defender Michael North, midfielder Kyle Jones and forward Connor Glennon are all back this year after receiving all-conference honours.They will join defender Jeff Cadman who started 17 games as a sophomore last season. Simon Fraser opens the season with six straight road contests, including a Sept. 2 match against No. 4 Cal Poly Pomona.The Clan’s first home game is Sept. 20 against Montana State Billings on Burnaby Mountain. The team spent the past 10 days touring Norway and chalking up a pair of wins.They defeated Staeback 3-0 with goals scored from Florian Langenegger, Aryan Chauhan and Michael North. The team won the second game 3-1 win against Norwegian 3rd division club Locomotiv Oslo, with

Matteo Polisi, Rahid Rahiem and Bjorn Borren supplying the offence. The roster includes Burnaby natives Raheim, a junior midfielder, and former under-17 national goalkeeper Luciano Trasolini, in first season with his hometown
squad but second year of university eligibility after spending last year at Barton Community College in Kansas. Seattle Pacific, who finished second in 2017, was the No. 2 choice with 35 points. Montana State Billings was selected third.

Xu wins back-to-back
It’s a groove for a reason. Burnaby’s Jay Xu carried one hot tourney result to the next, posting backto-back wins on the Maple Leaf Junior Golf Tour, topping the Boston Pizza-presented Mini Tour stop in Richmond on the weekend. The 11-year-old topped the boys 11/12 division with a single round of 75, 4-overpar and two shots ahead of Vancouver’s George Zhou. Two birdies on the front nine secured him an evenpar 35 over the first half, and helped put Xu in the driver’s seat on the 5,787yard course. No other golf-
er in the division posted an even-par round. It came on the heels of Xu’s 10-shot victory at the MJT Whistler Junior championship last week. In the two-day tourney, Xu took a slim, oneshot advantage into the second day after opening with a 75 on the par-72 course. But over the final 18 holes, the Burnaby native broke free and fired a 2-under 70, capped by four birdies over the front nine for a 3-under 33. He ended up winning the event by 10 strokes. Daniel Taddei was the
other Burnaby golfer making up ground in Whistler. The 17-year-old placed fourth in the junior boys division with a two-round total of 164 (78, 86), six shots back of the winner. In last week’s mini tour, Michael Cui wasn’t close but he was second, posting a solid 74 in boys under-8 competition. Surrey’s Jonathon Xia won with a redhot 66. In the girls 11/12 division, Kelly Du finished seventh, firing identical rounds of 98 over the par-73 course.
Burnaby snipers spark B.C. run Two top Burnaby talents played prominent roles in Team B.C.’s bronze medal finish at last week’s national midget box lacrosse championships. B.C. closed the tournament by blasting Nova Scotia 10-1, with Klarich among nine different players counting goals. In the semifinal, B.C. fell 8-4 to eventual national champion Alberta. Klarich, who
led the squad with 10 goals and four assists over eight games, tallied in the loss where six unanswered goals by Alberta in the second period proved to be the difference. Vela, who is committed to playing junior B hockey in Victoria this fall, was Team B.C.’s third top scorer, with seven goals and eight assists over eight games.

Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a Sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes.
