Banked holiday time paid out when Tony Chong resigned in 2012 By Gary McKenna

For Coquitlam’s remuneration schedule see story on page A3

THE TRI-CITY NEWS

T h e c i t y o f Po r t Coquitlam paid out $429,000 to outgoing chief administrative officer Tony Chong last year, a sum largely made up of banked holiday time over his 17year tenure. C u r r e n t CAO Jo h n Leeburn told The Tri-City News on Tuesday that Chong, who retired in April 2012, had approximately 15 months of banked holiday time, which worked out to roughly $275,000. (In 2011, Chong’s last full year with the city, he made $209,414 in remuneration). “This is not a prob-

lem that is unique to Port Coquitlam,” he said. “There are situations where people will get more than 52 weeks of pay per year. We are trying to minimize that from happening.” Changes made to the city’s vacation policy in 2010, which will impact all new hires, caps banked vacation time at six weeks. An employee who banks more than six weeks will have the additional time paid out in the first three months of the following year. see HOLIDAY, page A3

More trouble ahead for SD43? 87.4% of members support strike action, says Ginter By Diane Strandberg THE TRI-CITY NEWS

STEVE SMITH PHOTO

Thousands of revellers turned up in Port Moody on Saturday for the city’s Centennial Parade and All Nations Festival. Floats and marching bands made their way down Murray Street before the event wrapped up at Rocky Point Park. For more pictures go to page 19.

One of the most tumultuous school years in a decade has come to an end in School District 43. But with labour agreements for both B.C. teachers and CUPE support workers yet to be worked out, and heavier workloads to make up for 142 job cuts made to save $12.5 million, the next school year could prove to be just as challenging.

CUPE is first off the mark with a significant mandate in support of job action. Local 561 president Dave Ginter said his members voted 87.4% in support of strike action last Thursday, one of the largest strike mandates ever for CUPE workers in School District 43. Negotiations with B.C.’s teachers are also about to begin under a renewed mandate announced by Education Minister Peter Fassbender for a long-term agreement.The current twoyear agreement with teachers ends this month. see UNION, page A9

Metro Vancouver is conducting an extensive review of salaries for all management staff to determine if their pay levels are appropriate. It comes as the regional district released annual financial disclosures showing it paid out $142 million in pay and benefits to employees last year. Metro paid 369 employees more than $100,000 last year and some Metro directors have questioned whether pay levels are too high. Chief administrative officer Carol Mason, who is leading the pay

It last did one in 2008 but has a policy of reassessing pay levels every three years. “My early impression is I wouldn’t say we are overstaffed, but

that’s part of the process we are going through,” Mason said. Salaries and duties for Metro’s non-union staff are being compared against similar positions in local cities over the next several months. Mason has ordered a freeze on new hiring until the review is com-

plete. Metro board chair Greg Moore said the aim is to “ensure we’re not too high or too low in the pay bands we have compared to other equivalent-type employment.” A finding that pay levels are too high and need to be decreased would be“very difficult”to apply to current staff who would likely be grandfathered, he said. In the past, BC Hydro has poached many Metro engineers, putting upward pressure on those salaries to stay competitive. Local cities are also routinely raiding staff from each other or from Metro. The highest paid managers at Metro are water services general manager Tim Jervis at $218,000; external relations director Heather Schoemaker at $208,000;

corporate services general manager Ralph Hildebrand at $196,000; liquid waste services general manager Simon Ho at $185,000; and acting chief financial officer Phil Trotzuk at $173,000. The financial disclosures show last year’s highest payout of $523,000 went to retired policy and planning manager Toivo Allas, but included an unusual payout of banked holiday time accrued over four decades. Mason, who took over as CAO last fall after longtime CAO Johnny Carline retired, earns $270,000 a year. Deputy CAO Delia Laglagaron’s remuneration of $311,000 last year was unusually high because she was performing extra duties as acting CAO for most of the year.

Holiday policy changes made in 2010 continued from front page

Leeburn said this will limit the giant payouts that make it difficult for the city to plan its budget. However, the policy change only impacts employees who have been hired since 2010, and PoCo Mayor Greg Moore said it is likely that the city will see more large payouts as veteran staffers move toward retirement. “It is a legacy that we will have to deal with,” Moore said when asked about the issue during Monday night’s council meeting. Overall, staffing costs

at the city increased by approximately $1.2 million, from $23.8 milLEEBURN lion in 2011 to close to $25 million in 2012, according to the city’s schedule of employee remunerations and expenses. The document, which was presented to council on Monday, showed more than100 employees made $75,000 in remuneration or more, and 37 of them earned more than $100,000. Th e r e p o r t a l s o showed the amounts

collected by councillors and the mayor for their work. In 2012, Moore earned $93,033 as mayor, while councillors Mike Forrest, Darrell Penner, Glenn Pollock, Dean Washington, Brad West and Michael Wright each made $36,118. Mayor Moore led council with $5,445 in expenses, while Penner spent $4,550, Pollock spent $3,250, Wright spent $2,831, Forrest spent $2,412, West spent $1,660 and Washington spent $676 for a total of $20,824. Council voted unanimously in favour the report Monday night.

Woman rescued at Buntzen By Sarah Payne The Tri-CiTy News

A young woman was rescued from the Diez Vistas trail on Sunday after spraining her ankle. Coquitlam Search and Rescue manager Michael Coyle said the team was called at about 4:30 p.m. They used their new software to help them pinpoint the location of the four hikers on the Buntzen Lake trail and sent ground teams in to meet up with them. North Shore Rescue was then called in to provide a long-line extraction via helicopter. “If we had our own

long-line equipment now this would have been the second or third rescue we could have performed this year,”said Coquitlam SAR manager Michael Coyle. Although 13 Coquitlam SAR members are trained in Helicopter Long Line Rescue (HETS) procedures, the team is still without the necessary equipment. They’re waiting on Transport Canada to certify new equipment, a process that has now been in the works for about eight months. The North Shore team was most recently called in for a Coquitlam rescue of three hikers on Eagle Ridge in mid May, one of

the busiest weekends for SAR in B.C. “We’ve had quite a few more calls recently, so there is a level of concern for sure,” Coyle said about not having their own HETS equipment. “North Shore Rescue is always the busiest search team in the province — it’s one of the reasons we got the tool, because we know they’re so busy it’s quite possible they’ll be using it themselves.” Coyle said the longline rescue was needed

Sunday because it’s a faster and safer extraction method. “With an ankle injury it would have been a stretcher carry, and would probably have taken several hours and required some ropes to lower [her] down the steeper sections of the trail.” The remaining three members of the hiking group walked out with the SAR ground team and the rescue was complete by 7:30 p.m. spayne@tricitynews.com

Traffic, loss of green space at issue with 38-home project By Sarah Payne The Tri-CiTy News

A 38-home development that will finish off the New Horizons neighbourhood in northeast Coquitlam will go ahead as planned. Following a public hearing Monday, during which several nearby residents expressed concerns about traffic, noise and the loss of green space, council granted fourth and final readings to the zoning amendment bylaws, allowing Infinity Properties to build 38 single-family homes on the 12-acre property at 1388 Gabriola Dr. The property is bisected by the Coquitlam River and the David Ave n u e c o n n e c t o r. Three lots will be developed at the east end of Caliente Place, despite the challenges of a narrow stretch of road in the 3300-block, where a concrete wall on a neighbouring property has essentially turned that portion of Caliente into an alleyway. Another 35 homes will go along Gabriola Drive, which will be extended east of Anvil Crescent. “I’m concerned with the increased traffic and resulting congestion,” said one resident of the 3300-block of Caliente. “We have a narrow street as a result of previous development...and with the loss of trees we’re concerned with the possibility of increased noise. There’s already an onslaught of traffic coming down David Avenue and we hear that traffic well into the night.” Another resident of that block suggested council designate that corner of the proposed development as green space until the issue of the narrow road could be resolved. “It is an unusual situation,” said Mayor Richard Stewart of the concrete wall facing Caliente. “If we could have it corrected we would have, but for reasons we can’t talk about we can’t correct it.” Several Gabriola Drive residents objected to the development because of the expected increase in traffic, particularly since the homes will be built to accommodate basement suites, noting it’s already nearly impossible at peak times to turn left from Gabriola on to Pipeline Road. A staff report noted a pedestrian-activated signal for that intersection, already part of the five-year financial plan, would be moved up if the development was approved. Speaking on behalf of the Burke Mountain Naturalists and Coquitlam RiverWatch, Ian McArthur said mem-

bers had hoped the property would be purchased by the city back in 2000 so that it could remain “in its natural state or as passive park land.” McArthur asked the city to consider daylighting the storm sewer outlet running from Westwood Plateau for a 350-metre stretch between the west end of Gabriola down to

the Coquitlam River, so that garbage and various contaminants could be filtered out before reaching the river. Infinity’s original plans for 51 properties were scaled back after the company received negative feedback on its proposal in 2011. The plan now dedicates about half the property as park land

— the developer is required to dedicate 5% (0.6 acres) for parks but the property will also have a 3.31-acre riparian buffer on both sides of the Coquitlam River, as well as 0.42 acres of park next to David Avenue. The city will also buy 1.92 acres from Infinity, on both sides of the river, for park land.

Council questions Partington park plans By Sarah Payne The Tri-CiTy News

A new city on C o q u i t l a m ’ s B u r ke Mountain is closer to reality after council passed second and third readings of official community plan amendments that will pave the way for Partington Creek. At Monday’s council meeting staff noted plans for the new neighbourhood, which will be home to up to 15,000 new residents, have been updated based on consultation input over the past two months. Changes include reconfigured park spaces, stronger bear manage-

ment policies and clearer policies on sloping sites. Staff are also preparing a report for council on including more green streets in Partington, similar to the one in Burke’s Upper Hyde Creek neighbourhood, which “has been very successful.” The staff presentation also noted that every Partington resident will be within a 10-minute walk of a park, but Coun. Mae Reid questioned what those parks will look like and whether any will be flat enough to accommodate a playing field. Staff noted the slopes don’t allow for fields but parks will

offer amenities like sport courts, tot lots and water parks. A Highland Drive resident supported the plan but asked that there be a variety in housing types instead of “banks and

Food, fun and canola info at PCT open house Sat. By Sarah Payne The Tri-CiTy News

If you’ve ever wondered how those big piles of sulphur in Burrard Inlet get loaded from shore to ship, this weekend’s open house at Pacific Coast Terminals (PCT) will answer your questions, and many more. The Saturday event, coinciding with the annual Golden Spike Days festivities in Rocky Point Park, will give the public a chance to see PCT’s operations up close, find out more about their canola oil expansion plans — and to enjoy a hot dog barbecue, kids’ activities and live entertainment to top it off. “We have our open houses once every three years,” said Diana Dilworth, PCT’s community relations co-ordinator. “It’s an opportunity for people to see first hand the rotary dumper and if we have a ship in — and it’s very possible that we may — you can see sulphur being loaded on the ship, and we’ll have the falcon out that chases birds off the site.” It will also be an op-

portunity for people to find out more about PCT’s plans to expand their operations to include the handling of canola oil. Dilworth said PCT is “very optimistic” that a finalized agreement with the canola oil supplier will be signed within a matter of weeks, setting in motion plans to build three new storage tanks and modify the liquid conveyor system that would transport canola oil from the berth out to the vessels.

It’s expected PCT would begin handling the product sometime next year. Plans to expand operations to also include potash handling are moving slower than exp ected , alth o ug h Dilworth noted PCT will be applying to Port Metro Vancouver for permits to dredge Burrard Inlet. “The dredging that will be required is to deepen the channel for the larger vessels to come in to handle the

potash,” Dilworth said. The permit application will trigger a round of public consultations, with dredging potentially starting by the end of 2013. • The PCT open house runs Saturday, June 29 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. with access via shuttle buses leaving from the Rocky Point Park parking lot. Events include walking tours, exploring a CP train, children’s entertainment and live music. Visit www.pct.ca for more details.

Thank you! Thank you to all the spectators, First Nations, community groups, businesses, schools, individuals and four-legged friends who supported and participated in the City of Port Moody Centennial Parade. A special thanks to all the union volunteers and contributions from CUPE, Police, Fire & Rescue Services and the Port Moody Volunteer Firefighters.

Jane can help with such problems as: • Arthritis • Shingles • Deafness • Allergies • Infections • Backaches • Rheumatism • Over-weight • Sciatica • Knee/Neck & Shoulder Pain • Migraines • Headaches • Hemorrhoids • Stroke • Facelift • Insomnia • Coughs & Quitting Smoking

See why 2 of Jane's patients believe in acupuncture: • Lady Lily, 76 years old, came to this clinic complaining of ten years of migraine headaches. She tried to get help from her family doctor and was given a medication for two pills a day and had now taken a total of ten pills. Acupuncture was done on her over five visits and now her symptoms are gone and she feels no more migraine headaches.

• Mr. Daniel, an eighty one year old gentleman, who is living in Coquitlam was suffering from an

enlarged prostate gland. This is a general phenomenon in older men. He suffers from frequent visits to the bathroom, mostly at night, sometimes up to 10 times a night. After three visits to this clinic together with Chinese herbal medicine, he felt the symptoms had gone and he doesn't have the urgency to visit the bathroom often.

Union: No school closures continued from front page

CUPE workers have been without a contract for a year and have seen no wage increase since 2009 and Ginter said frustration with bargaining under the government’s no net gain proviso is the reason for the large strike mandate. “It could be the budget, people are tired of no money, and they see other public sector unions getting more money,” he said, adding that several months ago, the province went out to the school boards to find ways of covering wage increases without incurring more costs but came back empty-handed. “The school boards went back and said there is no fat to cut,” Ginter said, noting that SD43’s situation is even more dire because it’s facing a deficit this year and had to make $12.5 million in cuts next year to balance the budget. While the current impasse sets the stage for fall job action, Ginter said schools wouldn’t be shut down. “I would do something that doesn’t take teachers out or children out,” he said, noting that CUPE would look at other options, such as withdrawing caretakers or special education assistants for a day. Still, he said he hopes it doesn’t come to

that and suggested that with a new Education Minister, a new perspective on contract talks could be found. Meanwhile, School District 43 has made the cuts necessary to prevent a budget deficit for the 2013/’14 budget year and is waiting to see what a forensic audit finds out. The audit is expected to determine what led to the district’s difficult financial circumstances and make recommendations for the future.

Tolerance win I

PICTURE THIS adrian raeside

t’s good news that saner heads prevailed and the Quebec Soccer Federation reversed its earlier decision to ban Sikh religious headwear from the pitch. The province’s soccer czars said players wearing patkas, keskis and turbans during practices and games presented a safety hazard to themselves and other players. Canadians who value our standing in the world as a country welcoming to everyone denounced the decision as racism. That it would come from a province that has fought long and hard to preserve its own cultural identity made it especially galling. The Canadian Soccer Association said the safety concerns were balderdash. Turbans are soft. Sikh children around the world play soccer and their headwear has never before been a safety issue. Even FIFA, the sport’s global governing organization that likes to micromanage every aspect of the game to ensure its integrity and accessibility to everyone is mute on the matter. Soccer players aren’t allowed to wear jewelry, but there are no rules regarding religious headwear. In a post-9/11 world where fear and paranoia drive so many expressions of intolerance, religious headwear has become an easy target. A religious medallion can be discreetly tucked into a shirt or behind a blazer. A ring or other jewelry is small, often only noticed close up. But a head covered in a turban, scarf or burka stands out in a crowd. Countries like France, Egypt and Turkey have banned the wearing of burkas in public for a variety of reasons, from concerns about security to the idea that they repress women. But really it’s about fear. The Quebec Soccer Federation’s turban ban was a step down that road. Its reversal is a victory for tolerance. — Black Press

BC Liberal cabinet rookies handed hot files BC VIEWS Tom Fletcher VICTORIA here are nine new faces in Premier Christy Clark’s cabinet, seven of them elected to the B.C. legislature for the first time on May 14. They have been handed some of the hottest problems, and Clark’s marching orders in “mandate letters” for each ministry. And this is the start of a four-year term, when unpopular reforms are attempted. Take Amrik Virk, the former RCMP inspector from Surrey who’s suddenly in charge of advanced education. His mandate includes: “Review the student loan program to make recommendations for improvement to ensure the loan program is meeting the needs of today’s students.” Virk must also set targets to “match the skills we need with the skills we are graduating” and require post-secondary schools to “ensure stu-

dent seats are being filled.” B.C. can’t afford to keep cranking out university grads with $50,000 in debt and no job prospects in a system that’s subsidized 65%. Virk will be working closely with Education Minister Peter Fassbender, who must “ensure seamless transitions” from high school to the workforce for post-secondary trades and apprenticeships. In his spare time, Fassbender is to overhaul the school district bargaining agency and achieve a 10-year peace with the teachers’ union. Justice Minister Suzanne Anton has worked as a Crown prosecutor, so she’ll have some insight into the system that still grapples with Stanley Cup rioters from two summers ago. Her orders are to get traffic tickets and other administrative penalties out of the courts, keep working on integrating police fiefdoms and generally treat the constipation that afflicts law enforcement today. Oh, and get that new Okanagan prison built to relieve a system that has inmates living in

tents. And examine whether to spin off the Liquor Distribution Branch into a Crown corporation, a possible prelude to selling it. Transportation Minister Todd Stone’s first test was a grilling by the Vancouver media.Yup, this Kamloops hayseed has been to the Big Smoke a few times, ridden that fancy SkyTrain and taken the odd ferry, too. Now he has to impose the ferry route reductions that have been worked on by two previous ministers and push Metro Vancouver through a referendum on ways to fund its own transit. If more tolls or taxes are going to be implemented, now is the time. Coralee Oakes has made a political leap from Quesnel city hall to the Ministry of Community, Sport and Cultural Development. One of her key tasks is to invent a framework for a “rural dividend” from liquefied natural gas development in northwestern B.C. Oakes has to figure out how to “better provide provincial support” to sport and cultural organizations, but do it with no new money. All ministers have strict instructions to balance

their lean budgets and take part in the latest “core review” to identify government functions that can be sold, delegated or shut down. Richmond’s Teresa Wat, the new Minister of International Trade has to find a way to continue the growth of lumber and other exports to China, India and elsewhere on the Pacific Rim. On top of that, the always-delicate softwood lumber agreement with the U.S. expires in three years. The last major eruption on that front was in 2009, when B.C. cut stumpage rates for remote coastal areas to give communities much-needed employment. The Americans were livid, just as they were with our beetlekill harvesting efforts. And of course, the U.S.directed environmental movement continues to target Canadian industries. Third-term MLA John Rustad gets aboriginal relations, with specific instructions to deal with gas and perhaps oil pipelines through his Nechako Lakes constituency.

TRI-CITY leTTeRs No fan of road pricing The Editor: I understand TransLink is trying to cope with congestion but road pricing and time of use pricing is bound to face much public resentment. Firstly, many residents have had their nerves fried from many increases in fees and taxes. Secondly, alternatives to cars does not work for everyone. T h i r d l y , TransLink does not have the public trust to get more money from people. They have not shown fiscal proficiency with some of their projects. Vincent Lizee Coquitlam

This HOV lane makes no sense The Editor, I’m retired so I’ve done my share of commuting. I was lucky to have always worked within a short drive, walk or cycle distance from work. Last week a friend and I took our motorcycles to Buntzen Lake and on the way home we travelled west on Barnet Highway between Port Moody and Burnaby close to rush hour. I could not believe

the single lane of cars backed up moving at a snail’s pace while only a handful of cars were in the HOV lane. How come the Idle Police weren’t there shaking their fingers at them? I understand having HOV when there is at least three lanes, but where there are just two lanes it doesn’t make sense. Rob Arseneault Burnaby

What could have been a lonely all-night walk over two mountain summits and 72 km of paved road ended up being 10 km longer and a marathon of peace and good will for dozens of people who accompanied Guy Black on his journey. The Port Moody man concluded his 72K Walk for Korean War veterans Saturday at Burnaby’s Central Park. It began Fr i d ay m o r n i n g at Banting middle school in Coquitlam and continued through to Burnaby and North Vancouver. Black said although he was tired he was buoyed by the encouragement of Banting middle school students, army and marine veterans, local politicians, as well as members of the Korean Ladies Association. “We had to push the pace,”recalled Black of the final few kilometers, “And we were walking super fast and all those ladies were with us to the end.” His two sons also accompanied him on part of the walk and his wife drove the support vehicle. The walkers hiked up Burnaby Mountain to SFU for a ceremony, continued up Mt. Seymour in North Vancouver, for another ceremony, and then, when it turned out they were ahead of schedule, detoured to the North Vancouver cenotaph to honor Donald Hastings, a North Van soldier who died during the war. “We ended up calling it the 82 km walk,” Black joked.

Info, entertainment can be found in the lives of others

He attended UCLA and was the first athlete to win varsity letters in four sports: baseball, basketball, football and track and field. Robinson also served in the U.S. Army, where he received (and was later acquitted) a court-martial in relation to his objections with incidents of racial discrimination. In the book, we learn about Robinson’s public and private life, providing startling insight on what it was like for a person to struggle against racism and prejudice. Hot Lights, Cold Steel is a memoir about a surgeon’s years in residency at the famous Mayo Clinic in Minnesota. Michael J. Collins describes his experiences from his uncertain firstyear as a fledgling resident to his final year as chief resident. Through humorous and heart-wrenching anecdotes about his professional and personal life, the reader learns about what it takes to be a successful doctor. A Good Read is a column by Tri-City librarians that is published every Wednesday. Lori Nick works at the Terry Fox Library.

SSALES ALES EVENT

emoirs and biographies give glimpses into the lives of people who have diverse and interesting careers. I have selected some entertaining books written by teachers, a librarian, a baseball player and a surgeon that give readers insight into their challenging, yet rewarding jobs. Canadian stand-up comedian and actor Gerry Dee has written about his years as a teacher in his book, Teaching: It’s Harder Than it Looks. Dee taught physical education, geography and history for ten years in both public and private schools. He relates his experiences with students, fellow-teachers and parents in several humorous anecdotes. JoAnn Dionne is a writer and teacher from Victoria, B.C. In Little Emperors she outlines her adventures teaching English to elementary students in the southern Chinese city of Guangzhou. One of her first assignments is to give English names to her 150 students. It is

interesting to read about Chinese culture, as seen through the eyes of a Canadian. The Pulitzer Prizewinning author of Angela’s Ashes and ‘Tis wrote about his thirtyyear teaching career in NewYork public high schools in the book Teacher Man. Frank McCourt was a talented storyteller and he recounted his years as an English and creative writing teacher in his very interesting memoir. McCourt wanted his students to become creative and independent thinkers, and he achieved this through his imaginative lesson plans, which included sing-alongs and field trips toTimes Square. In 1945 sports legend Jackie Robinson broke the“colour line”in Major League Baseball. He was the first African American to play in the major leagues since 1884. In Robinson’s biography I Never Had It Made, the reader learns about Robinson’s life before, during and after his career in baseball. Robinson was raised by a strong, hard-working single mother where he learns to stand strong against racism.

Diana Dilworth who helped organize the event. For more photos, check out the Port Moody Centennial Parade page on the city’s Facebook page.

Oh, Canada! Plenty of July 1 parties in Coquitlam, Port Coquitlam and Port Moody

PhOtO sUBMitteD

The Vancouver-based Fab Foursome, a tribute band to the Beatles, will perform songs from the pre-1966 catalogue at Coquitlam's Town Centre Park at 9 p.m. on Canada Day.

Go night trippin' with the Fab Four By Janis Warren

PARLIAMENT HILL FOR JEN

janis warren/the tri-city news

Coquitlam's Jennifer Gillis, 17, a Grade 11 student at Gleneagle secondary school, will see CF-18 fighter jets and Snowbirds fly over her after she sings the national anthem — in French and English — at Parliament Hill on Canada Day for the country's 146th birthday. Gillis, who starred in her high school production of Thoroughly Modern Millie this year and made the Top 7 in last fall's CBC-TV reality show Over The Rainbow, was picked by Canadian Heritage Minister James Moore (right), the Conservative MP for Port Moody-Westwood-Port Coquitlam, to sing O Canada on July 1 after he heard her version of the anthem at local events such as the Queen's Jubilee Medal ceremonies. Gillis will be on the stage at around noon (9 a.m. PST). Also performing that day in Ottawa will be Mission's Carly Rae Jepson, Marie-Mai, Metric, Terri Clark, Karim Ouellet and astronaut Chris Hadfield, who will play with Ed Robertson of the Barenaked Ladies.

hen it comes to playing at Coquitlam's Town Centre Park on Canada Day — just before the pyrotechnics go off — the Fab Fourever will have just the thing to keep the crowd in a party mode. "We're going to have really high energy to make sure everyone is singing along, dancing and stomping their feet," said Jody Tennant who portrays Paul McCartney in the Beatles tribute band. The Vancouver-based group, also made up of Kevin Davey (John), Jean-Luc Perron (George) and Paul Kaszonyi (Ringo), will be focusing its hour-long set on the Beatles' biggest hits up to 1966. That means songs from the Abbey Road and Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band won't be heard because of the way the production is scheduled. Rather, it'll stick with the 1964 Ed Sullivan Show and 1965 Shea Stadium scripts. As well, to honour the Beatles' appearance in Vancouver 49 years ago, the Fab Fourever will flashback to the songlist from the 1964 Empire Stadium

concert — the English band's first Canadian date. Among the 11 tunes the Beatles performed then were Twist and Shout, All My Loving, She Loves You and Can't Buy Me Love. Tennant said his tribute band started as a hobby and has grown into a business that includes a tour bus and crew to meet the 40 annual gigs. The current quartet has been together for about five years. Davey and Kaszonyi joined the band shortly after seeing a Fab Fourever show in Chilliwack while Perron was hired through a Craigslist ad. Their dates are mostly in Western Canada that have a multi-generational, multi-cultural feel. "That's the great thing about the Beatles: Their music is so universal," Tennant said. "Almost anybody can sing a line or two from one of their songs." • The Fab Fourever will take to the water stage at Town Centre Park on July 1 at 9 p.m., an hour before the fireworks. Coquitlam's Canada Day Celebration is sponsored in part by The Tri-City News. For the day's lineup, visit www.coquitlam.ca (under the Recreation, Parks and Culture tab).

Who has hearing loss?

By Janis Warren

The Tri-CiTy News

The Michael Wood Band may be from Victoria but when it comes to playing hometown gigs, they don't see much action. "There are a ton of bands in Victoria," Wood said. "I think we're kind of over-saturated with musicians." Luckily for Wood (vocals/guitar), Josh Weed (guitar/vocals), Jon Burgundy (bass/vocals) and Alex Campbell (drums/vocals), they get a lot of attention in the interior of B.C. and Alberta. This summer, besides headlining the Canada Day celebrations at Port Coquitlam's Castle Park, the two-year-old rock band will be busy on the road: On July 2, they will open for Platinum Blonde in Sidney before making their way to Calgary for a number of Stampede dates. They return to Victoria for an all-ages concert midmonth then back to the Okanagan, Revelstoke and Alberta in August. Speaking in Halifax last week, where they played the Canadian Organization of Campus Activities (COCA) and the Oasis night club with My Living Will and Brite-VU, Wood said the band intends to head back into the studio this fall to cut its sophomore EP. Currently, it's writing about dozen songs for the album, though only half will be included. Wood said its new work is "more upbeat" than the debut album, titled Occupy This, released last May. "It's defined more as us. My lyric writing has been a lot more focused. I guess over time you find your voice and it gets refined along the way." As for the PoCo show, Wood said it'll be fun and tailored to an all-ages audience. "It's a little different playing for families than in a rowdy bar," he joked. • The Michael Wood Band takes to the stage at 8 p.m. with the fireworks to follow. For the day's line-up at Lions and Castle parks, visit portcoquitlam.ca.

It's a little bit tougher but it's still very clean in terms of hip hop today. Thorn added, "We're not very happy with the way most hip hop bands are going. We're not trying to become misogynists or put anything out there that is violent." As for their Port Moody show, Thorn said it will appeal to all ages and will include guest artists who collaborated on Long Road Home, namely Kurt Scott and Attikus. • Indelible appears on the Golden Spike Days stage at Rocky Point Park on June 29 at 5 p.m. For the festival lineup, visit goldenspike.ca/entertainment/ schedule.

What's happened with Indelible since we last spoke with them two years ago? "We've been touring Canada, done a few music videos, won some small awards," says Port Moody's J Thorn, one-half of the duo that includes his brother, Illucid. The hip-hop group, which will be performing on Saturday as part of the three-day Golden Spike festival, spent some time across the country last year with Swollen Members, Sweatshop Union, Moka Only and Kyprios, a Junoaward nominee. And soon the Centennial secondary grads will be back on the road with Apathy and Celph Titled (aka Vic Mercer), of Florida. In August, the pair hopes to find enough time in their schedules to launch their second album, Long Run Home, and solo projects. "We want to have lots and lots of product out there," Thorn said from his sound studio, Paranoyd. "It's important to us to have a visible presence in the market." Long Run Home, which will be sold at Golden Spike in advance of the release date, contains 12 songs and is more rock 'n roll than their debut, Our Present Future. "The last one had more of a party vibe," Thorn said. "With this new work, it's still upbeat, motivational and positive. We're looking up, not

Royals bolster roster with five new additions

Reds win one, lose one against Pirates By Gary McKenna The Tri-CiTy NewS

Soccer club adds players at every position By Gary McKenna The Tri-CiTy NewS

There will be a few new faces when the Douglas College Royals soccer team takes the pitch next season. Last week the Pacific Western Conference champions announced

they would be adding five players to the roster, including two National Training Centre Players. “This new young crop of players gives us a very bright future and the opportunity to have continued success in the PacWest conference this season and years to come,”said Robby Toor. Midfielder Nicolas Espinosa is expected to add some speed to the lineup. He comes from

Calgary where he played with Notre Dame high school and, according to Toor, has great vision. “I’m very excited for the opportunity to play with the Royals,” said Espinosa. “I’ve heard great things about the school and its soccer team. I’m looking forward to the… season and I hope that I can contribute to the Royals’ success.” Another speedy mid-

fielder, Nicholas PinedaGraham, will also join the Douglas College club next season. He comes from Frank Hurt secondary in Surrey and also played for the under-13 and under-16 B.C. provincial teams. Toor is also bolstering his defensive grouping with the addition of Dorian Colopisis and Alejandro Varela.

It was a chance for the Coquitlam Reds to make up some ground in the B.C. Premier Baseball League standings, but instead the club had to settle for a split. Coquitlam got off to a slow start against its Saturday doubleheader against the seventh-place Nanaimo Pirates, giv-

ing up two runs in the first inning of the day. Luckily, the squad was able to hold the Pirates bats at bay for most of the game, even managing to tie the visiting club in the fifth with runs from Mark Trimble and Jonathan Keltie. However, a rough seventh inning in the field for Coquitlam allowed Nanaimo to get its batters into scoring position and take

a two run lead, a 4-2 score that held until the end of the game. But the Reds were not finished yet. In the second game of the day the team’s bats came alive, putting up two runs in the second, four in the third and singles in the fourth and sixth. Nanaimo had no answers for the Coquitlam club, which eventually won the game 8-3.

Struggling Adanacs split weekend games

New goalie joins club

tone early, racking up four goals before the Adanacs were able to get on the scoreboard. However, Coquitlam was able to even the score before the end of the first period with four goals of their own to make it 4-4. That’s when Victoria blew the doors off the visitors in the middle frame and Coquitlam’s offence dried up, managing just two goals — including a powerplay marker from Matthew Dinsdale — before the final buzzer sounded. The Adanacs had better luck on Saturday at home when league basement dwellers the Burnaby Lakers visited the Poirier Sports and Recreation Complex. Both teams ex-

Varela is a Terry Fox secondary student and was named Best Defender at the United Soccer League under16 North American Championship while playing with the Coquitlam Metro-Ford Soccer Club. Colopisis comes from Clayton Heights secondary in Langley, where he captained the Mountain FC under 18 club in the B.C. High Performance League. Toor is also adding some goaltending talent to his roster with the addition of Indy Pamma, a keeper from North Delta secondary. Pamma played in the under-15 national team camp and the under-13 and under 16 provincial teams.

Soccer club adds players at every position By Gary McKenna The Tri-CiTy NewS

The Coquitlam Adanacs woke up Monday morning to find themselves tied for last place in the Western Lacrosse Association and staring at an upcoming schedule that includes some of the league’s top teams. Last Friday it was Victoria’s turn to beat up on the Coquitlam club in a game that saw the A’s allow five unanswered goals in the second period and struggle to keep the Shamrocks’ scorers out of their end. Vi c t o r i a s e t t h e

changed goals in the first period before Coquitlam took a commanding lead in the second period with goals from Jeff Zywicki, Daryl Veltman, Brett Hickey and Tim Campeau. Both Hickey and Dane Dobbie had six-point games for the club. Coquitlam kept up the pressure in the third, where Burnaby struggled to stay out of the penalty box, eventually winning the game 11-7. The Adanacs will be back in action tonight against the third-place Langley Thunder before a rematch against the first-place Shamrocks on Saturday at the Poirier Sports and Leisure Complex. sports@tricitynews.com

CORRECTION

An article that appeared in the Friday, June 21, edition of The Tri-City News erroneously reported that the Port Coquitlam Saints won the gold division Peewee Pop Styles Lacrosse Tournament. In actual fact, the Coquitlam Adanacs won the game 7-3. We regret the error.

Restaurant of the Month Rogues Bar & Grill Food with a view. Our restaurant of the month trades noisy roads and crowded buildings for stunning vistas and green fairways. Take a trip up the mountain and enjoy the sights and tastes of Rogues Bar & Grill at the Westwood Plateau Golf & Country Club. This hidden gem is a popular spot with Plateau residents and Tri-City locals. The restaurant is actually named after Plateau resident, and one of the very first caddies on the PGA Tour, ‘Rogue’. Rogue’s passion for golf and love of being around good people was the perfect inspiration for this neighbourhood restaurant. You can still spot Rogue around the club enjoying an afternoon coffee, tinkering with golf clubs at the Academy Golf Shop, or caddying for one of our up-andcoming juniors. Open to the public 7 days a week, Rogues Bar & Grill offers unbelievable value for an incredible menu. Most items are priced in the mid-teens and the food is top quality. Choose from a wide selection of appies, mains and desserts or head up for Pasta Nights on Wednesday and Thursday and Prime Rib Nights on Friday and Saturday. With such value and quality, Rogues is the perfect spot for date night, family night, or a bite after a day on the green. The Tri-Cities Chamber is happy to have Rogues Bar & Grill as our restaurant of the month for both June and July! Enter to win dinner for two at Rogues at www.tricitieschamber.com.

Who: your world in order What: Home staging, interior design and organization. Where: All over the Lower Mainland At ‘your world in order’, I provide staging, interior design and organization services to help you sell your house quicker, make it look spectacular and get it organized. I got into the organization business because I wanted to help people get control of their stuff. In 2011, I also added staging and interior design to my services because I wanted to ensure that my clients’ homes were as functional and comfortable as they were organized. I take pride in making my clients’ world the best it can be by customizing their home for them. I’m passionate about my businesses because I believe that the home is the centre of our lives. If it’s in chaos or depressing, we suffer in other areas of our lives as well. If our home is organized and designed to suit our needs, we thrive and life become enjoyable, peaceful and exciting!

Who: Body Bar Laser Clinic What: A medical esthetic clinic Where: 111-2957 Glen Drive, Coquitlam Body Bar Laser Clinic is a medical aesthetic clinic that brings the latest technologies and expertise to our clients at affordable prices. I have always had an interest in medical aesthetics and was someone that actively researched all the treatments available for the skin and body. We specialize in laser hair, tattoo, vein, pigmented legion and scar removal. We also provide cellulite and wrinkle reduction as well as skin tightening, and we make sure to educate our clients so that they can maintain their results. At Body Bar, we actively acquire the newest technology, which allows us to help our clients achieve their goals. The fact that we can fix a condition our client is experiencing is very rewarding in itself. We pride ourselves in bringing our customers the latest most effective technology at affordable prices. My best kept secret, as a medical esthetic professional, is that I never leave my house without my antioxidant and physical sunscreen. The best sunscreen can only protect up to 50% from sun damage. Pair with an antioxidant for full protection inside and out. Jaime, Body Bar Laser Clinic www.bodybarlaserclinic.com 604.475.5858

Who: Rocky Point CrossFit What: A place for CrossFit and physical fitness Where: 1570 Booth Ave, Coquitlam Rocky Point CrossFit started in a tiny garage in Maple Ridge. Michael Fandrey, Tom Smith & Errol Clark then moved into a 3000 sq ft space on Lougheed Highway in Coquitlam in 2010. The business, as has CrossFit, has flourished and it was necessary to find a larger home. Currently a 7000 sq ft facility near Silver City in Coquitlam. We’ve also had to add 5 more coaches to the roster! Our most popular service is our coach-led group class - a 1 hour session that includes gymnastics, strength training and the WOD (Workout of the Day). Before members join the group class, they spend several one-on-one sessions with a coach learning the movements, creating goals, identifying safe movement patterns, learning about nutrition and getting conditioned. CrossFit doesn’t subscribe to a certain demographic. Our ideal client is someone that has realized that if they want to make positive changes in their lives, they have to take responsibility for it themselves. Health and Fitness is a life-long challenge. Our job is to give people the knowledge and skills to get in and stay in the best shape of their lives. Our favourite thing about what we do is witnessing positive change in our members not just in weight loss and looking like very healthy individuals, but seeing their confidence grow and their lives changing.

Opinion Trends In Earthquake Insurance for BC

The Month in Photos 1

1 Michael Maslowski, Jordan Birch and Nick Solaczek

Have you noticed an increase recently in the cost of the earthquake coverage on the insurance policy you have for your business or home? As a consumer, it is important for you to know that rates are not just “going up” arbitrarily and without reason. The truth is there are various factors that have led to higher earthquake insurance premiums and deductibles, many of which have to do with the statistics surrounding the worldwide frequency of earthquakes and other catastrophic losses. Also, the requirement of Canadian insurance companies to purchase re-insurance – the cost of which continues to rise due to the frequency and severity of worldwide catastrophic losses – is also greatly affecting the cost of earthquake insurance here in BC.

getting to know each other at our New Member Orientation. 2 All smiles after a great day on the green at our post-golf dinner at the Wet Coast Golf Classic. 3 Chamber ED Mike Hind and our emcee Jay Janower on the Westwood Plateau course at our Wet Coast Golf Classic. 4 One of our raffle winners at the post-golf dinner, Rob Grant of Windsor Plywood, took home a new bike.

Frequency of Earthquakes – Worldwide: • Since 1900 there has been on average one earthquake per year over a magnitude of 8.0. • On average, there are fifteen earthquakes per year between a magnitude of 7.0 – 7.9. • They occur all around the Pacific Rim of Fire – which the Tri-Cities is a part of. Top 3 Worldwide Insurance Payouts In History • 2011 – New Zealand and Japanese Earthquakes - $122 Billion • 2005 – Hurricane Katrina - $100 Billion • 2012 – Hurricane Sandy - $77 Billion What is Re-insurance? Re-insurance occurs when multiple insurance companies from around the world share risk by purchasing insurance policies from other insurers to limit the total loss the original insurer would experience in the case of a disaster. Essentially, it is reinsurance that would provide the financial means to a Canadian insurance company to pay claims in the event of a catastrophic occurrence such as an earthquake in the Lower Mainland. However, the news is not all bad and to put this into context, earthquake premiums in BC have perhaps been on the low side to begin with. Compared to California, where earthquakes are more common, BC earthquake insurance rates are low. A BC house insured for $300,000 would have an annual earthquake premium ranging from $225 to $485. A California house insured for the same amount would have an annual premium of $865. As a result of all of these factors, Canadian insurance companies have increased earthquake insurance premiums, deductibles and, in the case of one insurance company, implemented a limited withdrawal of earthquake coverage in highly exposed areas of BC. At Mardon Insurance, we recognize the importance for earthquake protection & one of the reasons why we partner with insurance companies that will be responsible and proactive when implementing these changes in order to be sure that they can pay any and all insurable claims that might occur for our clients.

Coquitlam Celebrates Canada Day Coquitlam célèbre la fête du Canada

It’s all about Coquitlam at Coquitlam House 12:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. Coquitlam is going to be a part of Canada’s longest rapid transit line! Do you know the names of the new Evergreen Line stations or where they will be? Soon it will only take 40 minutes to travel from Coquitlam City Centre to Vancouver. Staff will be on hand to answer your questions along with a giant map and other displays that showcase the arrival of rapid transit to Coquitlam. Also at Coquitlam House, the Multiculturalism Advisory Committee will be on site hosting a couple of activities to learn more about the diversity of our City. The Welcome Project will be on display. This project invites people to participate by sharing their stories through images, words, and objects using birdhouses as a metaphor for migration, finding and making a home. Still want to learn more? Staff from Economic Development will have information on business and tourism in the City while Community Planning will be educating

visitors on what the City has planned for the future. And what is Canada Day without cake? The Coquitlam City Council will be handing out Canada Day cupcakes starting at 1:oo p.m. so be sure to stop by. For more information on Coquitlam Celebrates Canada Day, visit coquitlam.ca/ canadaday or stop by Coquitlam House on July 1st.

City of Coquitlam We are excited to present the Coquitlam Celebrates Canada Day event and we encourage you to attend. Canada Day is one of the few days in the year we join with family and neighbours and recognize our diversity while at the same time celebrate our common ground as Canadians. Take in live entertainment, get creative and get active or just relax and visit with family and friends - there’s something to do for everyone.

Happy 146th Birthday Canada! We’re Lovin’ It!

Have a safe and happy celebration. 531 Clarke Rd., Coquitlam

On behalf of Council, thank you to our residents, visitors, artists, volunteers and performers. We wish you all a wonderful Canada Day. Date: Sunday, July 1 Time: Noon to 11:00 p.m. Location: Lafarge Lake and Evergreen Cultural Centre

LIFENET saves lives in race against time Allows paramedics to transmit important electrocardiogram information to RCH doctors to ensure patients get the best care at the best place

n the race against time to save the life of a heart attack victim, Dr. Gerald Simkus’ medical team at Royal Columbian Hospital is like the pit crew ready to spring into action. Each member—including emergency room physicians, nurses, a cardiologist, cardiology and lab technicians, cath lab nurses and technologists, and sometimes a perfusionist— has a specific role to help give the incoming patient their best chance to make it to the checkered flag. And just as in-car telemetry gives engineers and mechanics a good idea of what is ailing a race car before it pulls in for repairs or adjustments, the LIFENET system communicates vital information from the paramedics attending the patient to the team awaiting their arrival at RCH. Except there’s a lot more at stake than a champagne shower on the winner’s podium. “Without rapid treatment the risk for death as a result of the heart attack increases,” says Dr. Simkus, the program medical director of cardiac sciences for Fraser Health. LIFENET uses cellular technology to allow paramedics to alert doctors at RCH that they are incoming with a heart attack patient and transmit important electrocardiogram data directly to the assembling acute cardiac ABOVE: Helen Elliott (left) STEMI Project Manager for Fraser Health joins Dr. Gerald Simkus, Program Medical Director, Cardiac Sciences, intervention team so they know what sort Fraser Health and Randy Hansen, BC Ambulance Service Superintendent in the back of an ambulance. of heart attack to expect.

2013 Golden Spike Days

President’s Message

y name is Sally Comin and I am very proud to be President of the Golden Spike Days Festival Society for a 3rd year! This is the Festival’s 37th Anniversary! This year is especially exciting as it is Port Moody’s Centennial Celebration! I have been on the board as a Director since 2007. I’m thrilled to say that when I was a little girl, I attended the 1st Golden Spike Days Festival and it is one of my fondest childhood memories!

As this is the 100th Anniversary of Port Moody, I encourage everyone to dress up in old fashioned clothing and add to the Centennial feel of the festival! I plan to be wearing my Can Can Dress all weekend. I am not only the president of Golden Spike Days but I am also co-manager of the Golden Spike Can Can Dancers! We have some wonderful new events planned this year. Also, we will still have some of the more modern events that the present generation has come to expect when they attend the festival.

largest contributors. This year we also received a grant from Canadian Heritage.

Another integral component of the festival is our volunteers. Without volunteers this festival would not occur year after year. They greet our visitors to the park, assist the children in making hats, build wooden boats and hundreds of other jobs to ensure everyone enjoys the weekend. As this is my last year as President of the Society, I would like to say Thank you so much to such a great Board of Directors, our wonderful Golden Spike Days staff, volunteers, community organizations, businesses in our community, elected officials and City of Port Moody staff. I have been thrilled and honored to work with you all! I can’t wait to see you all at the 37th Annual Golden Spike Days Festival!

Over these past 6 years, it has been such an eye opening experience to witness how much goes into planning our great Festival. Every year I am in awe of the dedication and determination that the Directors put in to planning, raising money through fundraisers, acquiring Sponsorship from the local community, marketing and contacting entertainers, events, vendors and partners. The Golden Spike Days Festival is planned and hosted by a group of volunteers that make up the Port Moody Golden Spike Days Society. On average our board members work 20 hours per month preparing for this weekend. We are thankful for the generosity of companies throughout the Tri Cities and the Lower Mainland, without your support we could not host this event. It is their corporate contributions that have allowed us to welcome you to Rocky Point Park this Canada Day weekend. Additional sources of funds are grants that we receive from different levels of government. The City of Port Moody has been one of our

2013 Golden Spike Days Port Moody Golden Spike Days General Events BC Hydro 37 Years & Counting

he Golden Spike Days Festival was first created by the Kiwanis Club of Coquitlam and Port Moody to commemorate the construction of the Canadian Pacific railway line and its arrival at the Port Moody Station. Various events have taken place in celebration of this historic moment, but it wasn’t until 1990 that the celebrations turned into the Golden Spike Days Festival that takes place every Canada Day long weekend. As the original western terminus, Port Moody remains proud to celebrate the completion of the railway that unites Canada. The picturesque background of Rocky Point Park sets the stage for the large variety of entertainment at the festival. Featured attractions include dance and musical performances, ecological boat tours, art making workshops, a cheerleader dunk tank, children’s crafts, and countless other family oriented activities. This year’s festival will play host to some of Canada’s favourite classics as well as some upand-coming talents. The main stage will showcase performances by: Daniel Wesley, The Boom Booms, Greg Drummond, Jerry Doucette and the Crossroads Guitar Allstar Band, Will Stroet & the Backyard Band, and Tony Prophet. Their musical talents will dazzle patrons of all ages.

Entrance to the festivals is by donation. This money will go towards the success of future festivals made possible by the unrelenting dedication of the Golden Spike Days Society.

The Golden Spike Days Society is made up of tireless volunteer directors that dedicate countless hours of their time to the success of this annual family festival. Dealing with a variety of tasks ranging from finance to entertainment, the directors ensure that every aspect of the festival runs as smoothly as possible. All of this time and energy is put forth in order to ensure that you, the public, can enjoy the best possible festival year after year. A registered non-profit society, the Golden Spike Days Society exists wholly as a result of the generous financial and in-kind sponsorship received from businesses throughout the local community. Outside the direct contributions of local companies and businesses, this festival truly would not be possible without the undying support of patrons that return year after year to join in the festivities.

Nominated ‘Best Live Act’ at the 2005 WCMA’s he has continued to cultivate a fiercely devoted fan base from his commercial work, albums and their amazing live translation. Although Wil’s music is defined as ‘Roots/Rock’ he comfortably shirks those boundaries by effortlessly blending classic singer-songwriter influences with old style country, pop and rock delivered with outright roots inspired soul.

Daniel Wesley Listening to the reggae-tinged title track of Daniel Wesley’s new album, Ocean Wide (in stores April 9 – (604 Records/Universal Music Canada), fans new and old will hear a songwriter who has come into his own as a lyricist and creator of memorable melodies as he explores more mature, evocative themes with sometimes ruthless honesty, wisdom, perseverance and gratitude. The 31-year-old White Rock, BC native, has always been known for his powerfully expressive voice, powerhouse live shows, and wonderfully varied musical creations. With Ocean Wide, he has bared his soul, and crafted 10 unique, cathartic musical journeys, all wrapped up with a thematic and tonal cohesiveness that solidifies Wesley as one of the great songwriters on the Canadian landscape. Ocean Wide sees Wesley opening himself up as a writer and musician, fearlessly baring his soul in a compelling, powerful and very real way – which, when you break it down, is the real essence of great rock and roll.

Ray Gibson

Maria in the Shower

Travis Bernhardt became a full time professional magician in the spring of 2008, fulfilling his lifelong dream (retroactively decided upon) of never becoming qualified for anything else. He’s been seen recently touring his one man theatre show, Lies!, across the Canadian Fringe Festival circuit—winning the top prize at the Victoria Fringe, as voted on by audience members. He has also been seen performing on streets and at festivals across Canada, in variety shows and cabarets around Vancouver, and privately for corporate clients like Electronic Arts and the Fairmont Hotel Vancouver.

Hailing from Maple Ridge, British Columbia, 19 year old country/pop newcomer Ray Gibson is already turning heads with her music. On March 19th 2013, she released her debut album- the self-titled Ray Gibson EP. With the album available worldwide, Ray is now poised and looking forward to performing for fans. From an early age, Ray taught herself to play both the piano and the guitar solely by ear. And that remarkable talent is garnering attention throughout Canada, the United States, and beyond. Ray has already worked alongside fellow Canadian country artist Aaron Pritchett, provided tour support for Tyler Ward, and some of her earliest work captured the attention of country superstar Carrie Underwood.

You may not find a woman or a shower next time you see Maria in the Shower, but then again this is a band that embraces contradiction wholeheartedly. The quartet revels in the fun and challenge of making old music feel new, writing and performing material that is as fresh as it is traditional. Simultaneously humorous and apocalyptic, human and otherworldly, these four young men have the entertaining power of a traveling circus with musical depth in spades. Named one of the top three independent bands in Vancouver for two years in a row (Georgia Straight), the group is “part Vaudeville, part cabaret, part punk and part folk” (Winnipeg Free Press). Their musical approach is a simple but potent alchemy, marrying traditional folk and jazz with lyrics that explore fundamental human questions, delivering it with pure fun and energy.

Gary Comeau is a singer-songwriter and musician of unique diversity and talent. Playing a range of instruments including guitar, mandolin, fiddle and piano, he delivers originally crafted, high energy, New Orleans-style rockin’ roots and blues. Gary Comeau & The Voodoo Allstars were asked to participate in The BC Fire Relief Benefit; a joint production of CBC television and radio. They were featured on Holger Peterson’s Saturday Night Blues; a CBC nationwide blues show out of Edmonton, Alberta and are regulars on the West Coast Festival circuit where their live performances are, more often than not, the showcase highlight.

If you haven’t heard him already, it’s about time you prepared for the rhythms of this particular west coast artist. Already his distinguishable voice has begun carving a path, bringing him and those who follow ever closer to national recognition. In combining unique storytelling and original sound, the music is both captivating and easy to fall right into. Whether in front of a crowd or in the studio, Drummond promises to create music of sincerity as he evolves artistically and independently. Following an impromptu submission to 104.3 The Shore FM’s BEST of BC Contest, Greg and his band yielded the top prize of $10,000 and solid radio play. Within the next couple months, the same song landed a spot on multiple shortlists, including the nationally recognized CBC Searchlight Contest.

The Boom Booms are a Vancouver-based six-piece indie band whose music is a mash-up of pop, hip hop, reggae, soul, and funk. Since their 2007 launch, The Boom Booms have built a loyal fanbase that stretches across generations. The video for their feel-good party anthem, ‘When the Night’, reached #6 on the Much More Music chart in 2008 and was optioned for an episode of 90210. ‘Delivered’, a surreal banjo ballad that conjures up images of a jungle river baptism, garnered an award for Best Roots Song at the Just Plain Folks Music Awards in Nashville.In 2011, The Boom Booms released their debut album ¡Hot Rum! This album, along with their energetic live performance and incredible stage presence, earned the sextet a spot in the 2011 Peak Performance Project, BC’s most prestigious contest for emerging musicians. They went on to win second place and picked up a cash prize of $75,000.

After Christina Christie received her BA from Emily Carr University, she had a vision. With fellow artist Birdie and Emily Carr alumni Leanne Thief, Black Rabbit Tattoo Studio emerged as an all-female tattoo shop with an art-gallery feel. Looking for a relaxed and comfortable bodyart experience in the heart of Port Moody? Since 2011, Black Rabbit Tattoo Studio has been providing exceptional tattoo and piercing quality to the Tri-Cities. Whether you’re looking for your first tattoo or your tenth, the ladies at Black Rabbit Tattoo Studio are sure to leave a lasting impression. Call or come into the shop to book your consultation today!

Jerry Doucette came by his talent and success naturally: his family are musicians by trade. As a youngster he would sit in on jam sessions with his father and Uncle Jim. Doucette’s first album, ‘MAMA LET HIM PLAY’, quickly went platinum in Canada, his success would lead to him touring with Bob Welch, Bob Weir (of the Grateful Dead), Eddie Money, MeatLoaf, the Doobie Brothers, and the Beach Boys. Jerry is still out there teaching us about the PASSION of music and you can catch him live proving it again each time he hits the stage that he hasn’t lost his edge, delivering clean melodies and slick pop each time out.
