When Juliana came home from school one day, her father, Coquitlam graphic artist Derrick Hanni, asked her to pose in the kitchen with flour on her face. “Juliana is a great model,” Hanni said of his 11-year-old daughter. “She is always willing to try something new. She’s the expression queen.” Hanni’s year-long photography work, Project 365, which includes (above) “Gently Add The Flour,” Day 312/365, is featured in a new exhibit that opens tomorrow (Thursday) at the Port Moody Arts Centre.

Break-in? Check. Break-out? Well... By Gary McKenna THE TRI-CITY NEWS
Two thieves had no trouble breaking into the Esso processing centre at the end of Ioco Road Sunday night — it was leaving that proved challenging. According to Port Moody Police, the men broke into offices in search of laptop computers and tools before attempting three times to flee the scene in stolen trucks. They crashed one, got another stuck in the mud and blew a tire on the third vehicle. see COPS BUST ONE, page 4
Stay clean, stay healthy Norovirus at ERH and in community By Diane Strandberg THE TRI-CITY CITY NEWS
Eagle Ridge Hospital (ERH) in Port Moody is the latest health facility to deal with a new strain of norovirus but officials are warning everyone in the community to take precautions to avoid the nasty stomach flu. On Monday, Fraser
Health reported that one ward at ERH was closed to new patients and a rigorous cleaning was taking place to prevent the spread of norovirus. At least three people were sick in the ward with a stomach flu that lasts 24 to 48 hours, “It’s very contagious,” warned Tasleem Juma, who explained that the Sydney strain of norovirus is a new one and no one is immune to it, which is why it is ram-
pant throughout B.C. To contain norovirus, staff at ERH are using “enhanced cleaning protocols,” which include twice daily surface cleaning with bleach, as well as the usual hand hygiene. For people outside the hospital, Juma encourages everyone to wash their hands frequently because the virus can be picked up from surfaces. see ‘ISOLATE’, page 7

The norovirus, which has hit one ward at Port Moody’s Eagle Ridge Hospital, is also hitting the wider community and health officials say sneezing is one way it spreads.

Growing pains for growing a city SD43 lays out plan for Burke schools but councillor says they can’t come soon enough
Being positive at Best Dr. Charles Best students are taking their feel-good message to social media.

P
rospective homeowners are not the only ones shopping for property on Burke Mountain as the new Coquitlam community of 25,000 to 30,000 people begins to take shape. School District 43 is also in the market and will have to start acquiring land to accommodate thousands of schoolaged children who are moving into new homes in the rapidly growing area and last week revealed that three new elementary schools are among the top priorities. But land has only been acquired so far for a secondary school whose construction is far in the future, according to a list of priorities presented to the board of education last Tuesday. According to the report, a new Smiling Creek elementary could open by 2016, followed by Partington Creek elementary in 2021, the new Burke Mountain secondary in 2023, then another new elementary school (on Marigold Street in the Partington Creek neighbourhood) before the final instalment, a 600-student middle school in 2026. In all, between 2,594 and 3,100 students could be moving into the area in the next 15 to 20 years, according to projections, adding between 8% and 10% to the district’s current enrolment of about 30,000 students. A school district facilities planner said the timelines are all dependent on funding and a report is being sent to the Ministry of Education now in the hopes of securing money to plan Smiling Creek elementary in 2014, with construction to follow in 2015 and 2016. Some of the dates could also change depending on the pace of development, said Ivano Cecchini.
tri-city newS FiLe PHOtO
Signs on Coquitlam’s growing Burke Mountain in Coquitlam offer hints and teases of what’s to come but they don’t always mean a public school is planned for the immediate future. In some areas on the mountain, School District 43 has yet to acquire land on which to build schools.
IN QUOTES
“That’s a big community ready to go. It would be nice to see the schools go in when the population rises.” Coquitlam Coun. Craig Hodge
“I think that’s the reality of today; we just don’t have the kids to build a middle school on Burke Mountain at this time and we don’t want to build a middle school of 200 kids.” Ivano Cecchini, School District 43 But Cecchini said some of the projections are based on a surge in projected enrolment numbers because new families are moving into secondary suites at a faster pace than expected. “Our yield rates [the number of students per unit] are expected to be slightly higher than for other parts of Coquitlam,”he said. Getting a new ele-
mentary school built in the area as soon as possible is a high priority for Coquitlam Coun. Craig Hodge, who also lives in the area and said he has witnessed “a wave” of strollers, indicating families with toddlers who will soon need to go to school. He’s worried second school for the Partington Creek neighbourhood is too far behind the projected opening date for
Smiling Creek, which he thinks will be full the minute it opens. With the city moving ahead with its plan for the Partington Creek neighbourhood, expected to accommodate 10,000 to 15,000 people eventually, the area’s population of young children could soon jump. “That’s a big community ready to go. It would be nice to see the schools go in when the population rises,” said Hodge, who is also council’s liaison with the school board and acknowledges the district has other capital needs, including replacement of many aging buildings. Another complication is that Coquitlam’s official community plan has indicated desirable sites for schools well in advance of the actual land purchases, creating expectations that can’t always be met. For example, property west of Highland Drive (and west of Coast Meridian) was long considered a possible site for a school and a sign
erected by someone other than the district said as much but was eventually taken down. Cecchini said the district hasn’t ruled out a school in that area but it’s not on the list of priorities. “It is a possibility, we are not that far in our planning,” he said, adding that the district has to wait until it has funds, and acquired the land, before making more specific plans known. Queenston Avenue east of Coast Meridian has also been suggested as a location for a school but, once again, Cecchini said, the district hasn’t bought any land there. A new middle school for the area is also a long way out, Hodge noted. In fact, Burke Mountain secondary school is supposed to open before planning starts on Northeast Coquitlam middle. Those plans have the councillor wondering if busing students to schools is part of the long-term plan. Currently, middle school students are bused to either Kwayhquitlum or
Minnekhada and that situation could continue for the next 14 years if the school construction timeline is any indication. Cecchini said busing is the solution for now because enrolment of the Grade 6 to 8 age group won’t be high enough to justify a middle school and there is room at both Kwayhquitlum and Minnekhada, which is also on the district’s priority list for a rebuild. “I think that’s the reality of today; we just don’t have the kids to build a middle school on Burke Mountain at this time and we don’t want to build a middle school of 200 kids,” Cecchini said, noting that a typical middle school has between 550 to 600 students. The area isn’t expected to have that many middle school-aged kids until 2026, according to current projections. Still, schools don’t come cheap — roughly $14 million for an elementary school not including land costs, and Hodge agrees that
the district will have to have its ducks in a row to get the province onside. But he says the sooner schools can be built in the area, with all the amenities they provide — in addition to fields and gymnasium, the city would like to see a small theatre, learning centres and even a satellite library — the quicker Burke Mountain will become a real community, Hodge said. “In the absence of these, it’s been difficult for the community to come together,”he said. He also lauded the district for at least setting some priorities and releasing the information so people have a better idea of what the plans are even if the sites haven’t yet been identified. “This gives some clarity to the residents, it gives clarity to the developers and it gives clarity to the city but the city and the school district have been working very closely behind the scenes.” dstrandberg@tricitynews.com

PoMo contracting VPD for emergency response team Former team with Abby, New West, Delta disbanded By Gary McKenna The Tri-CiTy NeWs
Port Moody Police Department will no longer share an emergency response team with Delta, New Westminster and Abbotsford cops and will enter into a new partnership withVancouver. PoMo Const. Luke van Winkel said the decision to disband the Municipal Integrated Emergency Response Team (MIERT), which has operated among the four munici-
palities over the last decade, was made after a re-assessment of the program. “The MIERT program saw a great deal of success, not only from a crime-prevention standpoint but as an example of the successful integration of multiple police forces and officers for a common goal,” van Winkel said.“However, all police programs must be continually assessed to ensure they are meeting the needs of the communities they protect.” MIERT was formed in 2003 to respond to high-risk situations in all four cities, including drug busts, gang-related
Cops bust one of two theft suspects continued from front page
Security guards had initially phoned PoMo cops after discovering an abandoned truck on the north side of the 200-acre property that appeared to have crashed into a pole. The vehicle was stolen from Surrey on Jan. 3 and had a large amount of forest debris in the undercarriage. Police left the scene but were called back to the area when the security guards discovered the two men were still in the secured compound. The area was quickly cordoned off and the K9

unit was dispatched, although police were only able to arrest one of the suspects, who had apparently injured himself during the break-in. A 40-year-old Burnaby resident with a long history of property crime was taken into custody and police are continuing their search for the second suspect. Police said the suspects gained entry to the facility by cutting the locks off a gate on an old service road. Investigators have yet to determine if the men were successful in stealing anything. gmckenna@tricitynews.com
arrests and armed standoffs. The team was composed of officers from each of the participating municipal police departments. Va n Wi n ke l s a i d the new partnership with Vancouver Police Department offers efficiencies in the program that were not available under the old agreement. From a tactical standpoint, however, he said little has changed. Port Moody will still have 24-hour access to VPD’s Emergency Response Team (ERT) and a crisis negotiator. A Port Moody officer will be embedded in the ERT on a full-time basis
while a second officer will be assigned to the VPD auxiliary team. Two PoMo crisis negotiators will also be integrated into the program. The changes will take place this month. M e a n w h i l e , Abbotsford has decided to launch its own ERT program while New Westminster is contracting the service from the RCMP. Delta has launched a hybrid of its own team in conjunction withVancouver. PMPD already contracts with VPD for homicide investigations. gmckenna@tricitynews.com – with files from Vikki Hopes, The Abbotsford News

New combined ID to prevent fraud New cards will be issued at time of licence renewal By Tom Fletcher Black Press
VICTORIA – The provincial government is rolling out its new hightech medical services cards starting Feb. 15 in an effort to phase out millions of CareCards that are improperly in the hands of non-residents. The new cards will be combined with the B.C. driver’s licence, with a similar “BC Services Card” available to those who don’t drive. Residents will be required to re-enroll to renew the card every five years, even if they don’t drive. Qualified residents can enrol in the Medical Services Plan at any provincial office that issues driver’s licences. There is no fee for the health services card only but the current $75 fee for a five-year driver’s licence renewal will apply to the new combined cards, dis-
B.C. Government
A sample of the new combined driver’s licence and health card. A “BC Services Card” without driving privileges will also be available. counted to $17 for seniors. There is no requirement to get the new card until your driver’s licence is renewed. The government’s plan is to change over all eligible B.C. residents between the ages of 19 and 74 to the new cards over the next five years. To be eligible for MSP coverage, you must be a citizen or approved permanent resident of Canada, living in B.C. at least six months of the year. Dependents must also be residents to be eligible for coverage. The health ministry announced the new card
program in May 2011 after a review showed there were up to 9.1 million B.C. CareCards in circulation — more than double the province’s population of 4.5 million. Health Minister Margaret MacDiarmid said the new card is designed to comply with B.C.’s information and privacy law, which restricts how personal data can be used and shared. That means ICBC and police have no access to medical files, and hospitals and medical offices have no access to driving records.

Efforts to out fake Facebook and Twitter profiles have paid off for Carol Todd and her supporters. The mother of Port Coquitlam teen Amanda Todd, who committed suicide last fall after online bullying and stalking from a cyber-predator, has been successful in having the fake social media accounts removed from cyberspace. Todd had to verify her identification with Twitter after making her complaint but in doing so, had two Twitter accounts impersonating her removed. The impostor Facebook account was also taken down.

Wash. lawsuit against Coq. tour co. Statement claims bus driver allowed to work too long By Janis Warren The Tri-CiTy NewS
A Coquitlam company involved in a bus crash in Oregon that killed nine people and injured 38 is being sued by the guardian of two of its young passengers. According to the complaint for personal injuries and damages, filed on Monday in Pierce County (Wash.) superior court, Kyoung-Sen Kang is claiming negligence by Mi Joo Tour and Travel Ltd., which is based on North Road in Coquitlam. None of the claims contained in the statement have been proven in court. The legal statement states Jong-Hyun Chae, 16, and Seong-Jun An, 15, who are South Korean citizens living with Kang and attending high school in Tacoma, boarded the bus on Dec. 22, 2012, in Federal Way for a nine-day package tour of western U.S.A. The bus was driven by Mi Joo Tour operator Haeng-Kyu Hwang, 54, whose driving time averaged 12 to 14 hours a

Rescue crews work at the scene of a horrific bus crash Dec. 30 on Interstate 84 in Oregon that killed eight people who were on a bus tour put on by a Coquitlam company. day, according to the statement. On the last day of the tour, on Dec. 30, the bus left Boise, Idaho, and travelled about 203 miles in three hours when it crashed at Emigrant Hill on Interstate 84, between La Grande and Pendleton, Ore. Road conditions were treacherous and there were many signs warning drivers, the statement reads. “At the time of the accident, not only was the tour bus descending down a long and wind-
ing road but the weather was freezing,” the complaint reads. “There were patches of snow and ice upon the roadway and fog in places. Yet driver Hwang did not adequately slow the bus to a safe speed given the hazardous conditions present. “As a result, in the vicinity of mile marker 227 on I-84, driver Hwang lost control of the tour bus as it began to slide erratically from side to side, eventually colliding with a guardrail and then spin-
ning 360 degrees to bust through the guardrail and then careen down a steep embankment, flipping over end-to-end as it crashed down the near cliff.” Chae was knocked unconscious and An fainted; both boys, who were sitting at the back
of the bus, later assisted injured passengers, reads the statement filed by the Herrmann Scholbe law firm of Tacoma. The statement alleges Hwang “was negligent in that during the trip he exceeded the maximum driving time for passenger-carrying vehicles.” As well, it claims Hwang was “further negligent by ignoring multiple warnings concerning dangerous conditions upon the roadway and failing to reduce to a safe speed.” Further, it alleges Mi Joo tour was actively negligent in that “it knowingly caused or permitted driver Hwang to violate the requirements of the maximum driving time” and that it is “vicariously liable for the acts of negligence of its employee driver.” No one from the Coquitlam company was available when contacted by The Tri-City News on Tuesday; however, its phone message states the following: “Mi Joo Tours expresses its deepest sympathy and condolences to those

impacted by the tragic events recently occurring in Pendleton, Oregon, U.S.A. “Due to these events, Mi Joo Tours is temporarily closed. We are fully cooperating with those authorities investigating the accident and is actively attempting to assist with those affected by this incident, in particular the injured passengers and their families. “Any persons directly impacted by the accident are advised to contact 1-800-910-4222, which is the ICBC call centre.” Mi Joo Tour and Travel has not filed a response in court to the lawsuit. Oregon State Police has released the names of eight victims: Youmin Kim, 11, of South Korea; Oun Hong Jung, 67, of South Korea and his wife, Joong Wha Kim, 63; Dale William Osborn, 57, of Spanaway, Wash.; Chun Ho Bahn, 63, of Bothell, Wash; Ae Ja Kim, 61, of South Korea; Yong Ho Lee, 75, of Lynnwood, Wash.; and Seokmin Moon, 55, of Maple Ridge.

The virus also spreads from coughing and sneezing, and people should be careful around family members who have vomited. Symptoms include vomiting, cramping and diarrhea. “It’s very unpleasant but it passes within 24 to 48 hours,” she said, adding that anyone who experiences the symptoms should stay home, rest and drink fluids, and, if symptoms persist, they should contact their doctor. “The best way to control it is to isolate yourself.” On Monday, the first day back for students and teachers after a two-week winter vacation, School District 43 reported there weren’t an unusual number of absences due to norovirus.

Real estate market to pick up steam in late ’13 ‘Mild market correction’ end in sight: economist By Jeff Nagel Black Press
Home prices dipped in much of the Lower Mainland last year but not by nearly enough to count as a bursting of what some had considered a real estate bubble. The composite benchmark price of all residential property in Greater Vancouver dropped 5.8% from the price peak in May to the end of 2012. That represented a 2.3% one-year drop from December of 2011, according to the Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver. “It’s a mild market correction,” said Credit Union Central economist Helmut Pastrick, who predicts a continued soft

A softer real estate market is a “mild market correction,” says Credit Union Central economist Helmut Pastrick. real estate market for the next several months before buying and prices perk up in the second half of the year. Pastrick bases his forecast on improving growth in the U.S. that will spill over into B.C. later in the year, and spur continued economic growth and home price gains in 2014 to ’16. He said the recent de-
cline in prices may also help draw some prospective buyers back into the property market. Greater Vancouver Real Estate Board president Eugen Klein said the “modest” change in home prices and the steeper 22% drop in overall sales reflected a “collective hesitation” of home buyers and sellers. The benchmark price
for detached houses in the Greater Vancouver area was down 2.7% y e a r- o v e r- y e a r t o $904,000. Composite residential prices fell the most in 2012 on the Sunshine Coast (–6.3%), Richmond (–5.3%) and Vancouver’s west side (–2.8%.) Areas that gained year-over-year included Port Moody (up 3%), Pitt Meadows (up 2.6%) and Coquitlam (up 1.3%.) The average single detached home owner in Greater Vancouver saw an 18% gain over the past five years, but apartment owners actually lost money — 1.3% — over the same period. The Fraser Valley Real Estate Board, which includes Surrey, White Rock and North Delta, reported a benchmark detached house price of $539,000 — up 1.2% from a year ago.
Townhouses were down 2.2% and apartments were up 1.6%. “The last half of 2012 was like a Mexican standoff,” said FBREB president Scott Olson. “Buyers kept hoping for greater price drops while sellers who didn’t have to sell just took their home off the market rather than lower their price.” Sales in the Fraser Valley were down 11% for the year. jnagel@blackpress.ca

3 homes instead of 4 after residents raise concerns The Tri-CiTy News
A developer is going back to the drawing board after his plans to squeeze four new homes on a single-family lot in Coquitlam stirred up controversy last month. After a public hearing on Dec. 10 where neighbours criticized the proposal for 1408 Austin Ave. (located between Schoolhouse and Gatensbury streets), city council voted 7-2 in favour of granting second and third readings to proposed zoning changes. But many councillors cited the area residents’ concerns about potential access problems — the property can only be entered via a rear lane off Charland Avenue — and about lack of parking. According to a city staff report, the property is 0.9 m too small for a fourplex and the applicant, David Lin Design Studio, had applied to vary the lot width requirement for the new development. L a s t we e k , R a u l Allueva, Coquitlam’s manager of development services, told The Tri-City News the variance likely wouldn’t be granted given council and the residents’ issues. As a result, the applicant is now scaling back the project to a triplex, allowing more on-site parking. Allueva said the revised plans are expected to return to council for fourth and final rezoning readings after a city staff review. The development falls under the city’s Housing Choices strategy, a policy implemented by council in 2011 to densify larger lots in southwest Coquitlam and Burquitlam to meet affordable housing needs.

EARLY BIRDS
Two Coquitlam pubs want to change their liquor licences so they may open at 9 a.m. Last month, city council reviewed bids from Micky’s Public House (formerly the Two Parrots Pub) and Townhall Public House (formerly the French Quarter Pub). The former is asking to increase the capacity and the size of its licensed area — as well as an extension of hours to serve booze — while the latter wants to alter its hours. If approved by the Liquor Control and Licensing Branch (LCLB), the new hours for both pubs would be from 9 a.m. to 1:30 a.m. Monday to Thursday and 9 a.m. to 2 a.m. on weekends.
work on Pinetree way Traffic on Pinetree Way in Coquitlam may be a bit more congested for the next month to make way for Evergreen Line pre-construction work. Work has begun on the installation of new underground BC Hydro power lines to power the system when it opens in the summer of 2016. The work includes digging a 1.5 m trench, installing hydro duct banks and resurfacing the road. Most of the work will take place on weekdays between 9 a.m. and 7 p.m. on Pinetree Way from Town Centre Boulevard (near the fire hall) to Glen Drive. It should take about one month to complete. To learn more about the project, email info@ evergeenline.gov.bc.ca or call 604-927-4452. Coquitlam’s city clerk office is now accepting public comments on the applications; the feedback will be forwarded to the LCLB along with council’s recommendation.
SAVING ENERGY
The city of Coquitlam has made a number of power savings over the past four years but
it didn’t meet its target to be carbon neutral by 2012. Under the provincial government’s Climate Action Charter, which the city signed in 2007, Coquitlam would have had to buy about $140,000 in carbon offsets that would have been payable to a third party such as the Pacific Carbon Trust.

Instead, the city will sink that cash into an internal Climate Action Reserve Fund for municipal conservation projects. That move means Coquitlam will be in the province’s “Making P r o g r e s s To w a r d s Carbon Neutrality” category rather than in the carbon neutral box. According to a staff report that went before the city’s council-incommittee in November, Coquitlam has implemented 57 energy-reduction projects since 2008 and it’s on track to slash another 30% of corporate greenhouse gas emissions by 2015. Those 57 initiatives — retrofitting civic buildings and pools, starting a “staff behavioural” campaign, etc. — have translated to a reduction of 1,137 tonnes (or 17% of the city’s total corporate emissions) and a savings of $276,000 in electricity, natural gas and gasoline bills, according to the report.

More taxes
PICTURE THIS Adrian Raeside
I
t’s a new year and that means that all levels of government have their hands in your pockets a little more deeply than in 2012. The Canadian Taxpayers Federation sent out a press release in December outlining just how much additional pocket picking is coming our way in 2013.The list is substantial. The biggest, and perhaps the most unfair, is the boost in Medical Services Plan premiums. These premiums will go up by $60 per family this year and have now risen 24% ($300 per family) in three years — far more than the rate of inflation. This boost in MSP fees was first brought in by the provincial government to help deal with its deficit, and it has since discovered that it’s a tax boost that causes minimal political trouble. It appears this premium will keep rising until enough members of the public start to pay full attention to just how much it is costing them. The federal government doesn’t get off scot-free. As of Jan. 1, premiums for Employment Insurance are rising, and so are contributions to the Canada Pension Plan. While contributors will get their CPP contributions back eventually if they retire and collect CPP, the same cannot be said for EI. A small portion of the population actually collects it but all working people and their employers pay dearly for the program. Municipal governments, which are in the midst of giving their employees raises, will boost property taxes — of course — this year. TransLink property taxes are also rising and the regional transportation authority will also take more from people who actually use the transit system as fares rose on Jan. 1. Back in Victoria, the province is facing a massive deficit and claims it will bring in a balanced budget, so that adds up to all kinds of tax increases that we have yet to see. But in the meantime, BC Hydro, controlled by the province, is raising rates by almost 4% on April 1 — no fooling. Taxpayers may get a small break if the PST, due to come back on April 1, isn’t levied on some services, as happened under the HST. We will wait and see what happens on that front. One thing is certain: Governments have an insatiable appetite for our money. While much of it goes to useful services, there is plenty of room for better management and lower tax increases. – The Langley Times (Black Press)
Derrickson real hero for aboriginal people BC VIEWS Tom Fletcher VICTORIA he century-old plight of Canada’s aboriginal people is back in the public eye, thanks to protests dubbed Idle No More. As with Occupy protests last year, the demands are vague. One of the claims, repeated in media coverage of protests, is that the federal government is moving to end the historic Indian Act restriction against selling reserve land. A look at the federal legislation, Bill C-45, shows this is not the case. Amendments ease restrictive provisions for leasing reserve land, which remains property of the Crown held in perpetuity for the aboriginal community. This change was initiated by B.C. aboriginal leaders so they can follow the trail blazed by one of the most entrepreneurial chiefs in Canadian history. His name is Ron Derrickson
T
and he served six terms as chief of the Westbank First Nation near Kelowna. One of my first big reporting assignments was covering a Royal Commission into his administration’s business affairs in the mid1980s. There had been an astonishing 17 federal investigations before that stemming from local claims that Derrickson was just too successful. He drove a big, black Mercedes, wore expensive suits and established a bunch of enterprises, including Canada’s first water slide. The commission was chaired by John Hall, then known as the Crown prosecutor who put serial killer Clifford Olson away, and who’s now an appeal court judge. Derrickson’s suit jacket had a conspicuous bulge as he took the stand each day. He was packing a semi-automatic pistol, having demanded and received a carry permit after a brutal attempt on his life. The hit man, an ex-cop, was hired by people who didn’t like the bottom-line way Derrickson ran Westbank’s lease-hold mobile home parks. He showed up at Derrickson’s home one day and tried to beat him to death

A home, a car & college: Single mom wins $3.4M By Diane Strandberg The Tri-CiTy News
A Port Coquitlam single mom is Canada’s newest millionaire after winning $3.4 million in a Lotto 6/49 draw last week. Jessica Williams, 36, who is an account manager and lives in a rented home with her 15-yearold son, said she was shaking when she picked up the cheque last Friday, and had planned to go out for “a nice steak dinner”with her family. Williams discovered she had won after put-

“Like everybody else, I’ve always hoped and prayed that I would win big one day. “Immediately after leaving the gas station I just sat in my car and cried,” Williams said shortly after cashing in her ticket at BC Lottery Corp. headquarters. “I don’t even remember yesterday.

Small steps, big goals en route to helping PoCo’s homeless people Homes for Good aims to house 10 more in 2013 By Diane Strandberg THe Tri-CiTy NewS
T
he plan, four years ago, was to end chronic homelessness in Port Coquitlam in five years. And while the Homes for Good Society hasn’t reached that ambitious goal — running into government bureaucracy, among other issues — it has achieved modest successes. First among its achievements is this: Half a dozen people who didn’t know where they would be sleeping from week to week — a car? a friend’s couch? outside? — now do. One mom was living in her car while her older children were couch surfing until she got settled. The society found her a basement suite and provided her with recycled furniture and dishes. Her 15-yearold was eventually able move back in. A single man who had been homeless for years but was making progress with his issues with the support of New View Society got a subsidized apartment from Homes for Good. And in November, the group helped another single mom with three young children move to a basement suite and volunteers helped her pack. “You don’t believe it until you see it,” said society chair Valerie O’Leary. “It was a heavy burden lifted off her shoulders and she continuously expressed her appreciation all day long. She couldn’t believe help was out there.” O’Leary and company hope more help is out there for the society, whose other major accomplishment in 2012 was being granted charitable status, allowing it to provide tax receipts immediately when an online donation is made. “That will open a lot of doors for us as far as donations and grants go,” said the longtime PoCo resident, who noted the society aims to find and subsidize housing for
what does the Homes for Good Society do? The Homes for Good Society was started in October 2009 as the offshoot of the Mayor’s Action Team on Homelessness. The goal was to establish a two-pillar strategy to end homelessness in Port Coquitlam by finding homes for people who are homeless and coordinating supports to keep them housed. To date, one man plus two families headed by single moms have been housed, with 10 more people potentially getting housing in the coming months. 10 more individuals this year.
BACKGROUND
In 2009, the Mayor’s A c t i o n Te a m o n Homelessness headed by Mayor Greg Moore dissolved to pave the way for a new society with the goal of ending homelessness. At the time, the number of homeless people in the Tri-Cities, including PoCo, numbered about 168, and several ideas were on the table that have now been put in place. A shelter and transition housing is being planned for 3030 Gordon Ave. in Coquitlam. A temporary bridge shelter is now housing about 20 people a night at a PoCo church. Dozens of homeless have been housed and many with substance-abuse issues went into recovery after spending time at Tri-City church shelters. And the YWCA opened an apartment with subsidized housing for women with children in Coquitlam. But more could be done and that’s where Homes for Good came in with a plan to use donations to the society to subsidize rents, find apartments for people and provide them with supports to stay housed. Moore and company adopted the Housing First model, meaning the group makes no judgements about the circumstances people find themselves in or the reasons for them being homeless, and doesn’t expect them to turn over a new leaf overnight. Instead, it houses people first and then works with other agencies to help them make a new life for themselves. Housing First has
taken root in other larger cities but has taken time to get established in PoCo. There were obstacles to be addressed and, for some time, it seemed Homes for Good was stalled. Nothing could be further from the truth, according to O’Leary, saying the group “learned our lessons. We’ve changed and adapted. Nothing has really stopped us.” First, the group ran up against provincial income assistance rules that prevented welfare recipients from accepting donations to help them with their rent without losing some of their benefits. O’Leary said that problem was solved with Homes for Good taking on the role of lessee, negotiating with landlords and subletting the suite to the client. Then the group had to convince landlords renting to it and its clients was a good idea. To proponents, it seemed like a no-brainer because Homes for Good becomes responsible for the unit and the rent. But it took some convincing to get landlords to see it that way. “There is that [stigma] to homeless people, so when you approach a landlord they are a bit leery about bringing in someone who has been homeless.”
MONEY
Another challenge has been funding but once several large donations started filling the coffers, including a $40,000 grant from Mosaic Homes and a $12,000 grant from Soroptimist International, the group became much more confident of its aim to house

homeless people and subsidize their rent at a cost of between $4,000 to $5,000 per person a year. Now the group is looking to house more people and is working with other agencies — such as New View Society (which helps people who have mental illnesses) and Hope for Freedom Society (which helps
people with addictions and runs homeless outreach programs) — to find the right clients. “Later, down the road, we foresee permanent solutions maybe going forward, and having our own units,” O’Leary said. “We are not at the point yet.” Whether there will be enough funding, and
apartments, to make good on this goal is hard to say. It takes time to turn a good idea into reality. But O’Leary said the group has enough passion and resolve to do what it takes to make Homes for Good, and the people they help, part of the community. dstrandberg@tricitynews.com

Can’t decide what to read next?You’re sure to pull some ideas from Hornby’s third collection of his hilarious and meandering book reviews for Believer magazine. While you might not find yourself reading the 600-page Austerity Britain, Hornby may convince you to revisit the works of Muriel Spark. With eclectic and random reading tastes, spending an afternoon with these reviews is like celebrating the joys of reading with a like-minded friend. Of course, you can also always get great suggestions by visiting your local library — we’d love to help distract you from that new fitness regime.

KIDS, STILL LIFE
Project 365 photos by Coquitlam graphic artist Derrick Hanni, which are part of a new show opening tomorrow (Thursday) at the Port Moody Arts Centre. The reception starts at 6 p.m. at 2425 St. John’s St. facility. FAR LEFT: “Luca and the Bean Stalk”; NEAR LEFT: “Fight for the Remote”; ABOVE: “Bartlett Pear.”
DERRICK HANNI
One year, 365 photos By Janis Warren
I
The Tri-CiTy NeWs
n December of 2011, Derrick Hanni was nearing his 44th birthday when he decided to embark on an art campaign that would change his life. A year prior, when he and his family lived in Montreal, Hanni was part of a large photography club and had a friend who was taking a picture a day for a year. In Coquitlam, Hanni thought about his friend’s mega-project and contemplated whether he could do the same. And after seeing his friend’s finished product, Hanni made the commitment and launched his own year-long photography journey. From the start, Hanni’s plan was not to limit himself with a subject matter or a camera; he could use an iPhone, a DSLR, a pointand-shoot or his children’s happy snaps to document an image. In fact, Hanni only really had one goal in mind: To capture something daily that he was happy with. It seemed easy enough, the freelance graphic designer thought. He had a list of eight or nine ideas at the beginning. But on Day 10, reality hit.
“I was wandering around the house. I had an old twin-lens Crank camera and I thought, ‘How can I photograph this?’ It dawned on me, ‘Derrick, you only had eight or nine ideas when you started.’” And so, like any creative person, Hanni took a picture of the camera and superimposed the image on the back of his head in a selfportrait, with the camera counter reading ZERO. He titled the piece Time To Load More Ideas. Desperate to find inspiration, Hanni trolled through the internet the next day and dug for clues from professional shutterbugs. And his answer was the world around him: Take pleasure in family, the frost on the trees at Como Lake Park, the raindrops on a flower in the garden. A third of his photos in Project 365 — a sample of which will be on display this month at the Port Moody Arts Centre — are of his children, Juliana and Luca, now 11 and nine. His daughter was an exceptional model, he said, always willing to try something new no matter how crazy the concept. For example, last October, after returning home from school,
Hanni asked Juliana to pose in the kitchen with flour on her face. Her expression was perfect, he said. Juliana was also a fountain of enthusiasm, accompanying her father on his photography outings with her camera in hand. While on vacation in Thailand, she turned her camera to give an interesting take of the beach. Hanni liked what she did and tried to copy it “but it wasn’t as good as hers,” he lamented. His son, on the other hand, wasn’t always such a keen participant. Luca would agree to be in a photo shoot but would allow his dad a finite amount of time. “He would give me six shots and be off,” he said. “He had other things he had to do.” Hanni, who was trained at Vancouver Community College as a fashion photographer but left the field early, said he only digitally enhanced a few pictures with PhotoShop. For instance, Hanni replicated Jack and the Bean Stalk with Luca as the protagonist. In another photo, Luca is levitating while he and his sister meditate in the back yard. see kIdS, page 21

Stage 43 starts 2013 with a whodunnit Director Angela Bell juggled two plays last fall — one in Langley, the other in Coquitlam By Janis Warren The Tri-CiTy News
While most people were bustling about and getting ready for Christmas parties last season, Angela Bell was busy on the entertainment front, too. Only she was preparing for dozens of shows — with dozens of cast and crew members — in two cities. “My life’s been insane recently,” said the Coquitlam-raised director and actor. “In November, I went seven days a week without a break.” From mid-October to Dec. 1, the Centennial secondary graduate was the director and costume and set designer for the sold-out production Christmas Belles by the Langley Players’ Drama Club, of which she is a past president. At the same time, Bell was also in rehearsal for Murder on the Rerun, the second offering of 2012/’13 by the Stage 43 Theatrical Society, a Coquitlam-based organization marking its 30th anniversary this year. Bell, who was last involved with Stage 43 in 1988 when she played in The Last Real Summer, said being asked to lead the show “was a real honour. “They know me from the Theatre BC annual festivals. We tend to be in competition with each other then, but we’re also very supportive of each other’s work as well.” Penned by Fred Carmichael, Murder on

the Rerun follows a similar “thriller” theme as last October when Stage 43 opened its season with Dead Serious. Murder on the Rerun tells the tale of an Oscar-winning screenwriter named Jane Ackerly, who is determined to solve the mystery of her BELL own death. The play also gives a satirical look at Hollywood movers and shakers. Situated in the 1980s at a Vermont ski lodge owned by Hollywood producer Stanzio, Jane aims to show him her new play, titled The Loves of Laura. But she winds up at the bottom of the stairs, dead. Her four friends and husband claim she fell down; however, her ghost — aided by Kitty, an “angel” who has been trying for 200 years to redeem herself in an attempt to get into heaven — wants it to be known she was pushed. “It’s full of lots of laughs and twists and turns,” Bell said. “It’s a fun play and one that’s presented very well by a community theatre group that pours its heart and soul out. They have a real passion for theatre.” Featured in the play are Stage 43 newcomers as well as a veteran cast and crew. Among the senior members are Gaye Lepage as the gossip columnist and Richard Paré, the set designer. Emily Houston and Tara Parker are the rookies while Sharon Kilback, Alannah St. Pierre, Craig McIntosh, Nikki Bryce and Richard Wiens are also on stage.

Kids played a big part in 365 continued from page 19
Hanna said because his space at PMAC is small and therefore he can only show 18 images from Project 365 (the entirety is in a book on show in the Plum Gallery), he hopes he can
display the complete collection in another Metro Vancouver gallery soon (to see the series, go to dhanni.com/365). As for what he learned from Project 365, Hanni said, “There’s a photograph in everything. You just have to take the time
to look around, examine it and figure out how to photograph it.” • The opening reception for Derrick Hanni’s Project 365 is tomorrow (Thursday) at 6 p.m. at the Port Moody Arts Centre (2425 St. John’s St.).

By Janis Warren The Tri-CiTy News
After retiring more than a decade ago, Virginia Baldwin took a textile arts diploma program at Capilano University and got hooked on the art of tapestry. The West Vancouver resident loved handling the yarn through her fingers and weaving colourful and unique images with a loom. After graduating, Baldwin searched for a tapestry group to join. There were plenty of general weavers’ organizations that specialized in fabric arts, quilting and needlepoint but none for tapestry. So she formed one. Today, her TWIGs ( Ta p e s t r y We av e r s Interest Group) meet monthly on Sundays to share their craft. Seven years ago, they held their first exhibit at Coquitlam’s Place des Arts. Tomorrow (Thursday), TWIGs will return to the Maillardville centre to open a joint display with TAPIS (Tapestry Weavers from Vancouver Island), a 35-strong club, in a new show called Edible Art. Baldwin said she got the idea from TAPIS about two years to put

Baldwin said the show took so long to come to fruition as exhibition space is difficult to find and as tapestries are laborious. Typically, a square foot can take 40 hours to weave. One set of threads — usually linen or cotton — run parallel to the warp (length) and another set — made of wool or cotton — run parallel to the weft (width) on a loom. The warp threads are hidden behind the completed work while the weft-facing threads being discon-
tinuous — that is, interlaced in a small pattern area. As for the Place des Arts’ exhibit, Baldwin said, “I hope people will get a better understanding of tapestry as an artistic technique.” • Meanwhile, Place des Arts also opens two other exhibits tomorrow: Unruly Lines by Ellen Bang and Capturing the Vibrancy of Nature by the Passionate Outdoor Painters.

Women’s side sees Brown take gold Team knocks off top seed Van Osch
Coquitlam’s Team Habkirk, seen here at the junior men’s provincial curling championships at the Poirier Sports and Leisure Complex on the weekend, fell short in the semifinals against Team Tardi. Team Habkirk, skipped by Kyle Habkirk, with Nicholas Umbach as the third, Ryan Harbrink as the second and Kento Sato, finished the tournament with a third place medal.
Curling skip Kalia Van Osch was a perfect 7-0 in round-robin play of the junior women’s championship at the Poirier Sports and Leisure Complex last week but came up short in the playoffs. The club lost the finals to Team Brown, skipped by Corryn Brown, third Erin Pincott, second Samanta Fisher and lead Sydney Fraser, all 17, in the finals of the 20 and under tournament. “This is high above all our other juvenile wins, for sure,” said Brown after the tournament.“It’s a totally different feeling because we’re so much younger than these girls.” Their ever-growing resume is impressive, to say the least. Included on the list of accomplishments, along with the junior title, are gold at the Canada Winter Games in 2011, gold at the Optimist International under-18 bonspiel in Toronto in April and three provincial juvenile titles, from 2010 to 2012. Brown also won bronze for Canada at the Youth Winter Olympics in Innsbruck, Austria, in February. -with files from Marty Hastings

Team Habkirk sweeps way to bronze medal By Gary McKenna The Tri-CiTy News
Team Habkirk wowed fans during round-robin play at the junior men’s provincial curling championships in Coquitlam but came up short in a crucial playoff match. The misstep occurred in the first playoff draw of the tournament, when Team Habkirk, skipped by Kyle Habkirk, with
Nicholas Umbach as the third, Ryan Harbrink as the second and Kento Sato as the lead, lost 7-3 to the lower seeded Team Tardi. The Tardi rink lost in the finals to Team Klymchuk of Langley, who went a perfect 7-0 at the tournament. Habkirk’s crew, the only Tri-City team at the tournament for curlers 20 years old and younger
at the Poirier Sports and Leisure Complex last weekend, had to settle for a bronze medal. In the semifinal matchup, the rink fell behind early, surrendering a point in the opening end before tying things up in the second end. But Team Tardi added three in the third end and two more in the fourth to pull away from Habkirk, who only managed to
score in the fifth and eighth. At the end of the draw, the Coquitlam club was down 7-3. Team Tardi did not have a strong draw in the final against Langley’s Klymhuck rink, which scored four in the second end and did not look back, prevailing 9-4 to win the gold medal. Skip Tyler Klymchuk said the championship rewarded a rink that
had worked hard in the months leading up to the tournament. The team separates its time between Langley, where most of the players live, and Victoria, where coach Todd Troyer resides. “That is definitely one of the goals that we set for ourselves at the start of the year,” Klymhuck said. “We have put in a lot of hard work, a lot of ferry trips, and it defi-
nitely feels good to win.” But there is more travel in the Klymchuk rink’s future. With Sunday’s victory the team will travel to Fort McMurray, Alta., next month, where they will take part in the junior national curling championship, which will be held Feb. 2 to Feb. 10. “We will keep doing our practices, tweaking a few things, mak-
ing minor adjustments and just make sure we are ready to go when February rolls around,” Klymchuk said. This will be the second time he has represented B.C. at the junior nationals, having also attended in 2010 with a different rink. They went 6-6 that year to finish in the middle of the pack. sports@tricitynews.com -with files from Gary Ahuja

Simon Fraser University basketball player Kristina Collins started the new year off with a flurry of scoring in a 71-56 win over the Fairbanks Nanooks in Alaska last week. The former Riverside Rapid managed 14 points and seven rebounds in the Clan’s first game of 2013 moving the team to 10-1 on the season and 3-0 in Great Northwest Athletic Conference play. Despite the win, however, coach Bruce Langford said the team still had a lot to work on in practice this week. “Kristina was excellent in the first half, going four for five from the three-point line, but ultimately we did not take care of the ball well enough tonight,” he said. “We did not have enough team offence and became complacent in the second half, where Alaska was able to get back into the game.” Collins was able to repeat her performance in a game Saturday night against the Anchorage Seawolves that saw her score 15 points, including nine from beyond the arc. She also had nine assists in the game. The game started slow as both teams were unable to capitalize on their chances and turnovers plagued both sides.

Mom will be missed greatly by her children, grandchildren, great grandchildren, brothers, sisters, sons-in-law, daughters-in-law, extended family and friends. It gives us great comfort to know that Mom is with our loved ones who passed before her. We are thankful for the medical help throughout this journey.

She always made life fun with her quick wit, sense of adventure and readiness to dance the night away. She lived her life, and slipped away, surrounded by family and friends. The love, strength and laughter she shared will stay in the hearts of many. A celebration of life will be held in High Prairie, Alberta, when the flowers are in bloom and we can share good food, music and memories.
