Mediator on board to find common ground on tiered-wage system

Police report on fatal crash could take a year

Approximately 325 unionized IKEA workers are heading into their 12th week on the picket line following a third session of mediation that failed to resolve the labour dispute.

“We need to find a fair resolution that gets everyone to work as soon as possible so we can get on with business. We’re hopeful that mediation will get us there,” said IKEA spokesperson Madeleine Löwenborg-Frick.

Teamsters Local 213 and the Swedish furniture giant met with a mediator this week to address the union’s concerns of a tiered wage system and the union’s expulsion of 27 workers who crossed the picket line and returned to work, according to Löwenborg-Frick.

“We don’t think this strike is in anyone’s interest,” she said. “IKEA is committed to finding a fair resolution for everybody.”

Löwenborg-Frick said the company’s original offer involved no wage reduction for current employees and “exceeds industry averages.”

A tiered-wage system is something the union previously fought to eliminate. It was successful for some employees, but not all. Now IKEA wants all employees on a tiered system, putting it at odds with unionized workers.

Teamsters Local 213 representative Anita Dawson said although the company’s initial offer didn’t cut employee wages, it did cut their chances to move up the pay scale.

Meetings between the two sides and the mediator are scheduled to continue Monday, according to Dawson.

“Having somebody else look at it from maybe a different perspective can help and offer suggestions, ideas and remedies to resolve this thing,” said Dawson.

A crowd of 200 people—unionized workers, labour leaders and politicians, including B.C. NDP leader Adrian Dix—rallied outside the Richmond store July 20 in a show of support for the picketers.

The B.C. Federation of Labour issued a statement following the Saturday rally calling on the public to boycott the Richmond and Coquitlam stores—the

It could take many more months before the Richmond RCMP investigation is completed into the fatal May 8 collision involving a $200,000 sports car and several vehicles stopped at a red light at Knight Street and Westminster Highway.

Richmond RCMP Sgt. Cam Kowalski said the passenger in the Aston Martin—estimated by one witness to be travelling at 200 km/h at the time of the crash—remains in hospital. Last month, the driver was still in the intensive care unit, though Kowalski didn’t have an update on her condition.

One part of the investigation is looking at the mechanical condition of the Aston Martin, with an inspection searching for clues as to the cause of the crash. That also includes a look at the vehicle’s black box, which should give collision reconstructionists an idea of the speed and direction of the vehicle, when and if the air bags deployed, and when and if the vehicle’s brakes were engaged.

Speaking in generalities, Kowalski said an investigation of this complexity could take six to 12 months.

But that becomes more complicated when those involved are seriously injured, which can impact the length of recovery and the time when investigators can conduct interviews.

Once the RCMP’s report is completed, if it decides that charges should be recommended, investigators will forward the report to the Crown.

If the Crown agrees that there’s a substantial likelihood of conviction and files charges, that decision will be made public, Kowalski said.

company’s two B.C. locations—until the dispute is resolved. “[C]ustomers choosing to patronize the Coquitlam location, while the strike is on at the Richmond location, are assisting the company in breaking the strike,” the statement says.

Pickets went up at the Jacombs Road store May 13. The Richmond store is one of two IKEA retail locations in North America that is unionized. The other is in Montreal, Que. The local store remains open with reduced hours, but its restaurant and children’s play area are closed.

Community centre is an important hub for Thompson Part of a monthly series looking at Richmond’s neighbourhoods. This month we feature the Thompson and Terra Nova neighbourhoods.

by Don Fennell Staff Reporter Trash talking. Crossovers. Slam dunks. And free agents.

They’re all part of the streetball culture which takes centre-stage this weekend in the Thompson neighbourhood of West Richmond.

Nestled between J.N. Burnett Secondary and Thompson Community Centre, a pair of small asphalt courts play host each July to one of the city’s most anticipated and popular summer activities. Tipping off Friday and winding up Sunday evening, the 28th edition of the Dolphin Classic is widely regarded as the best outdoor four-on-four basketball tournament in Western Canada drawing players from throughout B.C., Canada and the U.S. In a way it is our version of New York’s renowned Rucker Park, named after Harlem teacher and playground director Holcombe Rucker who in 1950 started a tournament to inspire less fortunate youth to stay off the streets and aim for college careers. While the story of the Dolphin Classic, started by a group of high school players and friends from Steveston secondary in 1986, may not be as dramatic its influence has been no less significant.

Held at the Thompson Community Centre for the fifth year, the tournament began as a oneday competition exclusive to Richmond players at Heather Dolphin Park near Garden City and Francis roads and has grown to feature 12

men’s teams and a separate four-team women’s division. But while the quality of play has risen sharply since imports (non-Richmond residents) were first allowed to participate in 1988, the event is still primarily about bragging rights.

Through it all, the original organizing committee—along with a few additions here and there—has remained intact while still being flexible enough to adjust to changing times.

Julie Halfnights has long been a fan of basketball and the Richmond playground hoops phenomenon known as the Dolphin Classic.

Five years ago, in her then capacity as a board member of the Thompson Community Centre, she helped facilitate the smooth transfering of the tournament from its original home at Dolphin Park to Thompson. Halfnights says the move was made because the event had simply outgrown its old facility, a tiny parcel of land with no space to spare.

“I had always been interested in basketball and attended Dolphin more than once, and my three kids all played hoops,” says Halfnights, who tried at least twice with former Richmond Sports Council chair Cheryl Taunton to start a women’s tournament.

“I thought it was the best thing ever when a women’s division was added to the Dolphin Classic,” she says. “It’s so cool to be able to watch players who played with my daughter and to see basketball at that level. And having the event at

Thompson makes it more visible and easier for kids to get too, which has helped open it up to a wider audience.”

Halfnights says the event is certainly a draw for the neighbourhood, “because you’re likely not going to be able to see basketball at that level anywhere else in Richmond.”

The community centre is the hub of activity in the Thompson neighborhood throughout the year, says Halfnights, who although no longer on the board of directors remains active in the community. (She’s now volunteering at the Richmond Community Foundation.)

Home to a community picnic the third week in June and a popular skateboarding environment, Thompson Community Centre also hosts a Lantern Festival every September. The third annual is set for Sept. 21.

“People make their own lanterns and there’s a little parade and some entertainment. And It’s all free or very (inexpensive) to participate,” says Halfnights.

There are also many amenities on site that attract rollerbladers, lacrosse and ball hockey players, tennis players and even cricketers. Yes, stop by the lacrosse box any Friday, Saturday and Sunday night and there’s a good chance you’ll see some cricket being played late into the evening.

“I think the community is quite well served by the centre, although there are times we could use two more gyms or a fitness centre twice the size,” Halfnights says.

The population is aging in the Thompson neighbourhood, but typical of the baby boomers they’re remaining active even as they begin to retire. As a result there’s a lot of use of the centre during the daytime, she says.

Don Fennell photo Thompson Community Centre is home to the Dolphin Classic, which returns this weekend.

There is a strong sense of co-operation between the community centre and nearby Burnett Secondary, with the relationship highlighted by the fact that many Burnett students are able to fill their CAP hours working at the centre. Many also go to become sports camp or summer leaders.

Terra Nova’s transformation Area has grown, but signs of pastoral past remain

by Martin van den Hemel Staff Reporter

Amanda Oye photo The Sharing Farm is a reminder of Terra Nova’s pastoral past.

Terra Nova was once synonymous with pastoral lands, seemingly immune for decades from the rapid pace of residential development seen in other green stretches of Richmond that began in the late 1950s.

These days, it’s home to some of the ritziest residential properties in Richmond, with massive mansions along River Road boasting million-dollar views of the scenic

North Shore Mountains and the bustling Vancouver International Airport.

At its heart is Terra Nova Village, a strip mall anchored by Save-On Foods, and across the street, a multi-storey concrete retail building is slowly rising.

All this change did not come without its fair share of controversy.

In fact, the divisive debate over the development of Terra Nova is among the most heated in this city’s history.

Back in the late 1980s, local developer Milan Ilich put forward plans for residential development at Terra Nova, which to that point had been an agricultural area.

Despite extensive opposition by community residents, Richmond council approved the project, a decision that was later upheld by the Supreme Court of Canada.

But the project included the addition of social housing and expanded park space, which made the project more palatable for local politicians.

Not all of Terra Nova has been redeveloped.

In fact, much of Terra Nova’s roots remains evident in the expansive Terra Nova Neighbourhood Park, Terra Nova Natural Area, Terra Nova Rural Park and Terra Nova South Park.

And it’s here where a handful of part-time staff manage The Sharing Farm, where more than 1,000 people volunteer each year to grow fruits and vegetables needed

by Richmond families living in the shadow of poverty.

Delta Mayor Lois Jackson faces an uphill battle convincing other regional politicians of the need to replace the George Massey Tunnel.

Jackson last year persuaded the province to start studying options for a new crossing of the Fraser River to relieve congestion on Highway 99 through Delta.

But several other members of Metro Vancouver’s transportation committee questioned the justification for the project July 23.

“You can’t build your way out of congestion,” said Richmond Mayor Malcolm Brodie, who instead supports more investment in transit buses along Highway 99.

“The real answer is to take vehicles off that corridor.”

Brodie is concerned traffic jams will merely move into Richmond if a new six-lane bridge is built to replace the tunnel. He also favours longer hours of operation at Port Metro Vancouver terminals so that trucks can haul cargo at night when there’s little traffic on the roads.

Jackson supports that aim but insists the 55-year-old tunnel desperately needs to be replaced.

“I am disappointed to hear those statements,” she said, adding Delta has watched while the Golden Ears and Port Mann bridges were built, the Canada Line was completed and Evergreen Line work started.

“I don’t know where the fairness is there,” Jackson said. “We’re going to have to go out and sell our message again.”

Jackson said she’s willing to accept tolls on a Massey tunnel replacement but said they should be “far less” than the $3 for the Port Mann, suggesting $1 or $1.50 would be appropriate.

She said tolls on a new Deas crossing would have to also apply on the Alex Fraser and Pattullo Bridges to avoid overwhelming congestion at those bridges if they were left as the only remaining free crossings of the Fraser River within Metro.

Richard Walton, chair of the regional mayors’ council, said he prefers distance-based road pricing, adding tolling specific bridges isn’t a fair way to raise money.

Man with driving ban arrested for getting behind the wheel Xiao Sean Zhang, 27, was caught driving while prohibited

by Martin van den Hemel Staff Reporter It didn’t take long for Xiao Sean Zhang to break the law after moving to Richmond last month.

The 27-year-old man responsible for the hit-and-run death in Vancouver of a visiting doctor from New Zealand in 2007—for which he received an 11-month conditional sentence

and a 10-year driving ban—was arrested by Richmond Mounties earlier this month, accused of driving while prohibited, obstruction of a police officer and possessing false identity documents.

Zhang has been labelled a prolific offender, as he was also behind a string of iPhone and smart phone thefts linked to Craigslist back in 2011. He would arrange a meeting with unsuspecting sellers and then simply steal their property and flee the scene.

In one of his modus operandi, he would dress up as a delivery van and attend homes where customers had just taken delivery of their new

phones, with Zhang pretending the phones were delivered to them in error, and that their phone was on the way. He was also listed as one of the most wanted criminals by the Integrated Municipal Auto Crime team.

On July 10, Zhang was placed under surveillance at his home by the Quick Response Team, based on information he might be driving.

Sure enough, the team members spotted Zhang leave his home and get into a nearby vehicle.

He was subsequently stopped and arrested and charged with driving while prohibited, obstruction of a police officer and possession/use of false identity documents.

Don't leave doors and windows open for thieves

by Martin van den Hemel Staff Reporter There’s nothing but sunshine expected through next weekend, but the recent warm weather has been bad news for many homeowners.

Richmond RCMP Sgt. Cam Kowalski said there’s been a huge spike in home breakins, where bandits are slipping through unlocked windows and doors, left that way by homeowners seeking relief from the heat.

“We’re getting pounded,” Kowalski said of the number of residential break-ins local Mounties are getting called to.

While the detachment is focussing on catching the culprits, Kowalski said homeowners need to do a better job of protecting their belongs.

Simply put, they should secure their windows and doors, or risk having a stranger invade their space and search through their stuff for valuables.

Securing their windows can be as simple as placing a stick in the window track, to pre-

Richmond council’s motion stemmed from a discussion at a meeting of the council/school board liaison committee, at which the Richmond Board of Education pledged to write a similar letter.

by Matthew Hoekstra Staff Reporter Richmond will spend $770,000 on a pilot project to test organics collection at approximately 100 apartment buildings, after a unanimous city council decision this week.

Under the pilot, approved Monday, the city’s waste contractor will collect vegetable peelings, paper plates, corn cobs and other compostable organics from an estimated 5,000 apartment dwellers starting this fall.

The pilot program is scheduled to start Oct. 1 and run through 2014. Each apartment will receive a free kitchen container, which can be emptied into a communal cart. The city will test a variety of approaches to collect the material, given space limitations and lack of quality control in apartment buildings.

The city is also planning to test organics recycling at up to six small commercial strip malls.

The move expands the city’s organics collection from current collection at single-family homes and ground-level townhouses. City officials are aiming to reach all residents before organics are banned from the landfill.

“As part of advancing toward 70 per cent waste diversion by 2015, the Metro Vancouver region is intending to ban all compostable organics from disposal in 2015,” noted Suzanne Bycraft, manager of fleet and environmental programs, in a report.

Compostable organics include materials such as food scraps, paper and yard waste. Left in the landfill, rotting organics generate potent greenhouse gases and leachate at landfill sites.

Also Monday council approved an expansion of services at the city’s recycling depot. The Lynas Lane facility will soon accept dry-cell batteries (up to five kilograms), cell phones and polystyrene foam (Styrofoam).

Used books will also be added to the list of accepted materials at the recycling depot. The Friends of the Richmond Public Library will have right of first refusal before the materials are handed to an organization that sells and reuses undamaged books.

How rioter barely avoided a criminal record

by Martin van den Hemel Staff Reporter Former beauty pageant contestant and Stanley Cup rioter Sophie Laboissonniere came “this” close to getting a criminal record.

After the former R.A. McMath secondary student pled guilty to rioting, and submissions were made by the Crown and defence in May on a fit sentence, Judge B. Bastin reserved judgement until June 24.

As it turns out, an important decision was made just three days earlier to that scheduled sentencing date— on June 21—that wound up having a direct impact on Laboissonniere’s fate.

Another judge had sentenced another rioter, Matthew John Lennox, who became the first Stanley Cup rioter to be handed a conditional discharge.

“As a result of that development, sentence in the subject case was adjourned until today to allow counsel to make submissions on the applicability of the Lennox case,” the Judge B. Bastin wrote in his ruling.

While Laboissonniere entered a London Drugs store in Downtown Vancouver on June 15, 2011 behind several other people through a large opening, stole a bag of potato chips, two bottles of water, and a Vancouver Canucks water bottle, left after 30 seconds, and then discarded the items after she left the store, Lennox’s involvement was

more serious. Lennox entered the same London Drugs on two occasions, for a total of about four minutes, and watched the actions of those in the store, and picked up a small item and left.

“The court found that a criminal record would seriously affect Mr. Lennox’s employment. I cannot find that Ms. Laboissonniere’s conduct in the store was more serious than that of Mr. Lennox, especially considering that she was in the store for only about 30 seconds,” Judge Bastin ruled before handing Laboissonniere a conditional discharge with a 16-month term of probation.

What that means is that if Laboissonniere, who was 19 at the time, adheres to her probation conditions, and doesn’t again run afoul of the law over the next 16 months, she won’t have a criminal record.

Following her involvement in the riot, Laboissonniere began making presentations at her former high school, McMath secondary, about the consequences she faced as a result of her conduct. McMath principal Neil Kamide testified at the sentencing hearing about the “general positive effect” of her presentations at the school.

Laboissonniere also apologized to London Drugs Limited for her actions and made restitution to the company in the amount of about $500.

S

ummer seems to be the season of senseless—and sometimes tragic —accidents.

A jogger is hit by a train at a busy and well-marked crossing along White Rock’s waterfront. A child falls from a window left open to capture a cooling breeze. A swimmer dives into a shallow pool of water and never resurfaces.

These kinds of tragic fatalities seem to happen year after year, in communities across the province.

And they especially resonate because they often involve people

doing activities we’re all pursuing in the halcyon days of summer. Enjoying the outdoors. Being active.

Getting away. Staying cool.

But just because we’re slowing down to enjoy the season doesn’t mean we can let down our guard when it comes to staying safe.

Traffic may be diminished, but it’s still dangerous.

The water at the swimming hole may be inviting and refreshing, but dangers lurk beneath the surface.

Beers on the back deck or at the campsite are just as intoxicating as those consumed in the pub on a Friday night.

Of course, more people are out and about, enjoying the sunshine and warm temperatures, so the odds are higher that accidents are likely to occur.

But the zeal to get out, to maximize our enjoyment of these rare sunny months before the winter rains and chill settle in again sometimes lead to lapses in judgment.

Seemingly inconsequential acts like leaving a window open, rolling through a stop sign, not looking both ways before crossing a street, or ignoring a prominently-placed warning notice can come with huge consequences.

Sometimes even fatal ones.

British Columbians love the outdoors. Partly because there’s so much of it at our doorstep and it’s so beautiful. Partly because we spend so much of the year seeking shelter from it when rain and snow fall from the sky.

But no matter where your summer takes you and your family – whether it’s to the beach or the cabin, to any number of vacation destinations, or even if you’re just relaxing at home, just remember to be careful out there.

—Black Press

Add healthy eating on your path to fitness

A Runner’s Mind Christine Blanchette

I

f you’ve recently embarked on a running program to lose weight, you may not like the results even after three months of hard work.

What is wrong with this picture, you might ask.

The culprit could be that you are eating more than before you started working out. The many trips to the fridge for that slice of apple pie each night or making poor eating choices could cause you to swerve into the unhealthy lane of life’s highway.

For some, the disappointment of so much work without results will be discouraging enough to quit trying. Instead, you may need to brush up on your rudimentary math skills because simply put, if you burn more calories than you consume, your fat doesn’t stand a chance.

The problem could be a desire to reward oneself after a good run. Unfortunately, too much of a good thing is usually not good.

Instead of losing a few kilograms after many weeks of hard work, you might have lost only a few grams, or horrors, even gained a few.

Sometimes overindulging happens because we are stressed or depressed.

Food is a necessity but choosing the right food is the key. How do you stop spinning your wheels and change your diet for the

better?

Dr. Aly Lakhani, who practices internal medicine, offered valuable tips on how to change your eating patterns or your approach to eating. I had the privilege to speak with Dr. Lakhani, who works at UHN Hospitals including Toronto Western Hospital.

The engaging Dr. Lakhani said, “The way to a healthy lifestyle is through exercise and a healthy diet. There are misconceptions as to what healthy or unhealthy eating is. A muffin sounds healthy but it, just like a fast-food hamburger bun, contains a lot of high-fructose corn syrup, which is an unhealthy substance that is found in all processed foods and makes us want to eat more.

“With substances like high-fructose corn syrup found in the foods we consume, it can affect our moods or perhaps bring on the onset of diseases.”

Dr. Lakhani explained, “Cardiovascular disease is becoming more and more common - it is a disease that is seen in times of plenty - times like ours.”

The message here is to follow a well balanced diet including protein and complex carbohydrates.

Dr. Lakhani noted, “Our pre-historic ancestors ate mostly vegetables and didn’t have much cardiovascular disease. Now we have access to a lot of high fat and high calorie food that we tend to store as fat when we eat it. It is no wonder we have so much more cardiovascular disease.”

The path to a healthy lifestyle is eating more vegetables and getting good nutritional advice.

Dr. Lakhani mentioned the Mediterranean diet, (which consists of mostly olive oil, fruits, nuts and vegetables, moderate intake of fish,

The path to a healthy lifestyle is eating more vegetables and getting good nutritional advice.

poultry and wine with meals and low intake of red meat, processed foods and desserts), published in the New England Journal of Medicine tends to be even better for the heart than a low-fat diet. Here is Dr. Lakhani’s ‘prescription’ for healthier eating just in time for summer when barbecues or family gatherings are often planned.

1. When making a sandwich, make it open-faced.

After a bite, put it down as this slows you from eating faster and you feel satisfied. Dr. Lakhani, noted, “It takes twenty minutes for your brain to realize

that your stomach is full.

Eat slowly and your brain will feel full when your stomach is full – and you will probably eat less.”

2. Slowly put down your fork and knife each time you take a bite of food.

You will develop a slower eating pattern. Chew your food slowly as this will also decrease your appetite.

Dr. Lakhani points out, “Some of the time we feel hungry it is because we are thirsty. That said, the notion that we need to drink “eight glasses of water” to maintain a healthy lifestyle is probably not true. What is true is that water is good

for us and that we should drink plenty of it, especially in warm weather and when we are exercising.”

Dr. Lakhani’s overall recommendation is for adequate sleep, proper hygiene and exercise.

And don’t forget to hone up your elementary math skills!

City council must act on Chinese-only signs controversy

Bento Catering

Editor: I’m on the same page with letter-writers Kathy Mui and L. Haudin for residents to consider learning one of the official languages of Canada: English or French.

Richmond is heading for a chaotic community.

And, for that matter, the worst is yet to come if nothing is done with the Chinese-only public signs controversy.

Yes, the English speaking group is being shortchanged having to live with Chinese-only board signs, window displays, restaurant menus, and so on. Let’s urge city council to act upon the petition submitted by a concerned group—a petition to establish a bilingual (Chinese/English) policy.

I commend Aberdeen Centre for its good example in requiring all major signage to be in English. Having a policy will establish harmony and goodwill among all the residents.

Richmond-raised singer May Cheung returns to Metro Vancouver next Thursday to perform at the Cellar Jazz Club.

Cheung, who now lives in Brooklyn, New York, is a jazz vocalist who established herself in the Montreal jazz scene. A 2007 graduate of McGill University in jazz voice, work on her own album is now consuming most of her time. She’s also teaching piano and voice and collaborating with other musicians in New York.

For her Aug. 1 show, Cheung will handle the vocals, with Sharon Minemoto on piano, André Lachance on bass and Andrew Millar on drums.

The Cellar Jazz Club is located at 3611 West Broadway St., in Vancouver. Cover for the Jan. 18 show is $15. Call 604-738-1959 for more information.

City council approved the playground concept one year ago. Originally scheduled for completion in the spring, the play park’s puzzle pieces are still being assembled.

Today (Friday) marks the close of a request for expressions of interest for a contractor to design and build custom playground

Supplementing Treatment for Cancer We have probably seen or had someone close to us undergo treatment for cancer. Whether it was treatment through surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation, there is little doubt that each procedure has its risks and benefits. Lost amidst the information though, is that some natural supplements may be beneficial for those preparing, undergoing, or have finished chemotherapy or radiation. And although traditional thinking says no supplements at all during chemotherapy or radiation, recent studies haven’t necessarily come up with that conclusion!

For example, I now recommend OncoQol DabxibeQOL, a branched chain amino acid supplement to help reduce muscle and weight loss during chemotherapy. This is because weight loss can occur in 31-87% of patients (dependent on the type of cancer). Those who suffer weight loss tend to have a decrease in chemotherapy response rate and some studies suggest a decrease in overall survival.

So keeping weight on is very important!

Here are just a few suggestions that might be suitable:

Platinum Brand Vitamins and Minerals

will need to be custom made,” according to the document.

Designed to be unlike a traditional playground, the play environment will feature materials that pay tribute to the area’s agricultural history. Tractor tires and paddock fences—installed to create a maze— will be included in the design. Natural elements, like the slough, hedgerow, fields and ditches, will be maintained. A playhouse perched in the trees, docks on either side of the park’s slough, a double zip-line, hammock swings, trampolines are also part of the concept, as is a picnic area and additional parking.

The contractor will be tasked with designing a 35-metre-long zip-line, tall swings, an aerial walkway, an eight-metre-tall treehouse and the Log Jam: a climbable timber structure “that mimics the West Coast experience of walking on beached logs.”

Tugboat Annie’s offers a mix of great food, atmosphere & staff Tugboat Annie’s chef James Cunningham knows his way around a kitchen, serving up what he describes as the “best soup in town”, made fresh daily from scratch.

Located at the foot of Graybar Road in East Richmond, Tugboat Annie’s boasts a beautiful patio with unobstructed views of the Shelter Island Marina and the Fraser River, excellent food that’s in tune with what’s happening in the farm fields and gardens, and a welcoming, friendly staff.

Whether customers are eager to watch some sports, reconnect with friends while trying a great selection of local and West Coast craft beers, or simply winding down the week, Tugboat Annie’s offers a casual, relaxed pub atmosphere with a little bit of everything.

To say the menu is dotted with standard pub fare would be a disservice. Chef Cunningham pours his 20+ years of cooking experience into everything he serves his customers.

Take the best-selling jalapeno chicken corn chowder, or the curry-based mulligatawny soup, or the seafood chowder.

All satisfy the heart and soul, and at reasonable prices too.

Tugboat Annie’s is located at 6911 Graybar Road. It’s open from 11 a.m. - 11 p.m. Monday to Wednesday & Saturday, from 11 a.m. - midnight, Thursday & Friday and from 11 a.m.

- 10 p.m. on Sunday.

when my call came in and said, ‘Sure. We could call it Cruisin’ with the Boomers and use a licence plate for a logo.’ That was in May 2012.”

What will audiences experience?

“It takes audiences back to the ‘60s and ‘70s, a period of change, passion and great music. The show is full of warmth and features classic rock/pop songs. Expect a stack of your faves—the Beatles, Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan, David Bowie, the Doors, the (Rolling) Stones, Motown and disco. The list goes on.”

What is it about ‘60s and ‘70s music that people fondly remember?

“It takes boomers back to where they were when they first heard the songs. Their hopes and dreams were expressed in the lyrics and the show links them to a special time in their life. The younger people are impressed by the range of music and the poignancy of the messages.”

What’s a favourite memory you have of music from either decade?

“Realizing the power of music—how it can change your life.”

Richmond’s Voni Grindler, a longtime theatre professional, spent 11 summers working on a commercial fishing boat out of Steveston.

TUGBOAT ANNIE’S PUB & GRILLE RESTAURANT

Coming to Twin Oaks Equestrian Center - 13671 # 3 Road, Richmond

Creating a new show is always a challenge. Just ask Voni Grindler, a Steveston resident and cowriter, producer and director of Cruisin’ with the Boomers.

The musical revue takes audiences back to the ‘60s and ’70s, when popular music flourished and grew roots that show no sign of decay. The show began earlier this month at the Revue Stage on Granville Island, bringing audiences to their feet.

“This one has really struck a chord with audiences of all ages,” said Grindler.

Steveston’s been home for the last two decades for Grindler, who grew up in Prince Rupert in a commercial fishing family. She used to go fishing with her dad, and in later years she fished out of Steveston, crewing for her husband on a 65-foot seiner for 11 summers.

Grindler got hooked on professional theatre in 1987. She’s an honours directing graduate of the Drama Studio London, and has an extensive list of credits for directing, producing and creating new works of theatre.

Her latest show is described as a colourful tapestry of popular music from many genres. It features the talents of Joani Bye, Linda Kidder, Oliver Conway, Dave Pickell, Peter Padden and Tim Porter—all Vancouver-based veterans of B.C.’s music scene.

Smarts = success at Dolphin Classic Four on four hoops classic tips off Friday at Thompson community centre

by Don Fennell Sports Editor It takes more than athleticism to win the Dolphin Classic. It takes athleticism and smarts.

“That’s something a lot of people don’t appreciate about basketball,”says Bruce Watson, an original member of the organizing committee overseeing this weekend’s four-on-four playground tournament at the Thompson Community Centre.“A lot of the best players can’t jump more than 10 inches in the air. It’s what’s between the ears that makes a really good player.”

Randy Nohr of the X-Falcons and Steve Lee of the Runnin’Rebels are two of the elder statesmen among an increasingly younger fraternity of players. But their experience has been a strength, with Nohr and Lee leading their teams to the last two men’s championships.

By Lee’s own recognition, the Rebels weren’t the most athletic team at the tournament last year.

But they got baskets when they needed them and played smart. That made them the best team.

“That’s something a lot of people don’t appreciate about basketball,” says Watson. “A lot of the best players can’t jump more than 10 inches in the air. It’s what’s between the ears that makes a really good player.”

Smarts has long been the X-Falcons’ main calling card and has enabled them to net four Dolphin Classic titles since 2007. Nohr was the tournament MVP in three of those.

Always serious contenders, the X-Falcons in

2013 will be as strong as ever with Nohr ( a former Canadian national team player and coach at University of B.C.) and UBC players Kyle Watson and Alex Murphy setting the pace. They are not only talented players but their work ethic is unsurpassed.

Athletes in Action has yet to hoist the championship trophy, but following last year’s appearance in the final (losing 68-60 to the Rebels) will be among the favourites in 2013. Besides Janzen, a Hugh Boyd grad who went on to play pro hoops in Germany, AIA may also feature Marek Klassen who was the MVP at the provincial AAA high school boys’championships a few years ago while at Yale Secondary. He’s subsequently gone on to become a star point guard at Point Loma Nazarene University in San Diego.

Former UBC player Jordan Yu, a Dolphin Classic mainstay, heads up a cross section of local hoops talent in Triple Double; brothers Roopi and Manroop Clair (the latter transferring this year to the University of Seattle from Hawaii) will rev things up for Rapid Motors; while the West Coast Ballers are the newest entry joining the likes of the Richmond City Falcons under the tutelage of legendary local hoops coach Paul Eberhardt. The team features current Langara Falcons including Richmond’s own Elliott Mason and Brody Greig, an All-Canada who is generally regarded as the best college player in B.C. The McMath grad is set to play at the University of Ottawa next season.

A number of other college teams, featuring their current lineups, are also entered into this year’s Dolphin Classic—the Birds (representing UBC), Simon Fraser University, Thompson Rivers University from Kamloops and, for the first time, the University of the Fraser Valley.

Rounding out this year’s men’s lineup are the Nighthawks, captained by legendary Dolphin

Don Fennell photo Clayton Crellin won his second consecutive slam dunk title at the 2012 Dolphin Classic. The 2013 edition, which will also feature a three-point contest, is set for Sunday at 6 p.m.—just prior to the men’s final.

Classic player and former McNair Marlin star Josh Masters.

And though he always says he’s getting too old to compete, few will be surprised if Masters enters the slam dunk contest. After all, he’s the all-time king having won 11 of them—the first of two in a row in 1995 and most recently in 2010. He won seven in a row between 1999 and 2005.

“One of the neat things about the dunk contest is it’s always a wildcard when it comes to

participants,” says Bruce Watson. “It, along with the three-point contest, is open to everyone. You don’t even have to be a player in the tournament.”

Though there’s been a lot of loyalty shown at the Dolphin Classic, free agency is a fact of life in streetball. And Watson says while they’ve been lucky to have a great return rate of players and teams, captains always have to be prepared for the unexpected. The teams that usually fare best are those who manage to snag at least a free agent or two. In streetball lingo, a free agent is a player who has not committed to any team, perhaps having just graduated from playing college or university hoops and able to fit a particular team’s needs.

With captain Breanne Watson forced to the sidelines with a broken wrist (sustained playing her first game of rugby in June) and most of her teammates busy with other commitments, Border Patrol won’t be back to defend their women’s division title. But as a tournament organizer, Watson still plans to be active in some capacity this weekend.

Border Patrol’s absence will leave four other teams to contend for top honours, led by the University of the Fraser Valley Cascades which at one point last season was ranked second in Canada university women’s basketball. The Cascades are led by point guard Aieisha Luyken.

Seattle University grad Ellie Kerfoot, who will play professionally in Belgium next season, has also put together a formidable lineup. Two new teams, one based out of the Stratchcona area of Vancouver, and another calling itself the Nighthawks round out the division.

“It’s been a tough summer for players, with a lot of conflicts,” explains Breanne Watson. “But it’s provided a good opportunity for other teams to get a taste of playing at Dolphin.”

Islanders reach senior softball final in first season

by Don Fennell Sports Editor Second place isn’t a bad consolation prize. Espe-

cially if it’s your first season.

So as the Richmond Islanders 92-93 posed with their silver medals Sunday at London Fields, they

couldn’t stop smiling— even after an exhaustive stretch of games that concluded with a 7-3 loss to the North Delta Lightning

in the final of Softball BC’s senior B women’s championship.

It was a long path to the title game, seven games in all. But the Islanders proved up for the challenge.

“We can’t complain,” said Al Groff, co-coach of the Richmond team with John Badock. “To come second out of 21 teams is a pretty good result.”

One of the stars in the Islanders’ surprising ascent to the final (in which

they won five of seven games) was Sam Badock, the 19-year-old sister of starting pitcher and right fielder Julia Badock. Sam’s strong pitching, described

by Groff as “slow and low” threw many of the opposition batters off—even the Lightning. Richmond jumped out to a 3-1 lead in the game with Sam throwing the first five and a third innings before a bases-loaded single to the fence gave the Lighting a lead they’d eventually

build on. Offensive highlights for the Islanders included two bunts by left fielder Sydney Jeffers, two singles by first base Janessa Murao, doubles

by Katie Sherlock and Julia Badock and a single by Emily Merlo. Shortstop Cherise Chang made a double play in the fourth inning by blocking a hard hit ball and stepping on second base before firing the ball to first base.

The Islanders began round-robin play with an 8-0 win over New Westminster Riot with a double and three-run RBI engineered by Sherlock and a two-run shot by Julia Badock who was pitching to catcher Kelsey Lawrence, filing in for regular Kaeli Alexander away on school commitments.

After a 5-1 loss to North Shore Reign (Sherlock’s over-the-fence homer accounted for Richmond’s lone run), the Islanders got back on the winning track with a 9-3 win over the Redbacks followed by a 3-1 win over the Reign (starting pitcher Emily Agawa gave up just one run in the seventh inning) and a 5-4 win over Ridge Meadows Pride.

Pickup Deanna Mohr was also instrumental in the victory, providing stellar defensive play in right field. Richmond then edged North Delta 5-3 setting the stage for a second consecutive game between the teams for the provincial championship.

SEVENTH HEAVEN •Richmond Islanders Senior B, coached by Larry Strohan, tied for seventh place.

Strohan said the team looked nervous in making several errors in a 10-1 opening-game loss to the Reign, but was able to quickly refocus to down the Redbacks 8-1 for the first win in which Jodi Westerhof pitched all seven innings.

Caitlyn Lee led off a fiverun fourth inning with a double for the Islanders.

Richmond wasted no time setting the tone for its second win, as Kyla McWlliam hit a homer over the right field fence to score two runs in the top of the first inning in a 12-9 victory over the Oakeys. Kianna Trewin also had a two-run shot in the top of the fifth.

Richmond extended its winning string to three games as Marina Russell and Danielle Strohan both contributed runs in a 12-4 win over the Force, but came up empty in a 10-0 loss to the Pride before bouncing back with an 8-6 win over the Valley Cats in an elimination game. They closed out the tournament with a 7-1 loss to the Extreme with the pitcher-catcher combination of Karen Wright and Marina Russell allowing only eight hits in five innings.

“Our team goal for provincials was to get to the semifinal Sunday morning, and facing a very tough opponent the girls battled hard and kept it close,” said coach Strohan.

sports Former Sockeyes’ bench boss organizing coaching conference

by Don Fennell Sports Editor Aaron Wilbur is a selfconfessed sponge—and encourages other hockey coaches to do likewise.

“The longer you coach the more you realize you’re

constantly watching other coaches’ practices, talking to them and trying to pick things up,”he says.“Coaching is really a fraternity and as much as you compete against each other we all share a common goal to create a great program

and place for people to come and play. I started this really as a labour of love.”

Since stepping down as head coach of the Richmond Sockeyes in April, after guiding the local Pacific Junior Hockey League

team to the Western Canadian championship, Wilbur has been dedicating most of his energy and time to organizing the 2013 Hockey Conference to be held Aug. 9 to 11 at the Delta Burnaby Hotel and Conference Centre.

Vancouver Scenic City Tour SEPTEMBER 22, 2013

Novice, intermediate and expert cyclists are welcome

Wrap up your summer with the MS Bike Tour in Vancouver.

This is a great tour for beginner riders or those looking for a casual and friendly ride. Choose from three different routes that take you through Vancouver on our amazing network of bike paths.

Have more fun. Bring your family, friends and co-workers together to form a TeamMS! Members motivate and encourage each other to make a bigger impact in ending MS! All you need is yourself, three other participants and a team name.

This will be the third year in a row he’s organized the conference through his business venture— the coachessite.com. Past presenters have included St. Louis Blues’ coach Ken Hitchcock, Mike Keenan and Ray Ferraro.

This year, Wilbur has lined up another impressive list of speakers for the three-day conference including both professional coaches and performance experts. The list includes widely-respected Vancouver Giants’bench boss Don Hay (a three-time winner of the Memorial Cup who also previously coached in the NHL), Los Angeles Kings’ goaltending coach Bill Ranford (a Stanley Cup winner as a coach with the Kings’ in 2012 and as a player with the Edmonton Oilers in 1988 and 1990), Portland Winter Hawks’ coach and general manager Mike Johnston, Everett Silvertips’ coach Kevin Constantine (who coached San Jose, New Jersey and Pittsburgh in the NHL), as well as Seafair minor hockey coaching associates Derek Popke and Yogi Svejkovsky. Hay’s keynote address will focus on game day preparation and

bench management, while Johnston will foWILBUR cus on breakouts and transitioning out of the defensive zone, Ranford on integrating goaltenders into team systems and tactics and Constantine on offensive attack options.

Other keynote speakers include Mike Williamson, head coach of the Calgary Hitmen who will speak on penalty killing; renowned sports physiologist Saul Miller who will look at the five mistakes coaches most commonly make; and Kevin Jagger on making the days count. Jagger lettered in four varsity sports at Vancouver College before playing football for the McGill Redmen and graduating from the university with a finance degree after which he spent three years as an investment banking analyst. But after watching the Vancouver 2010 Olympics, Jagger was inspired to get out from behind the cubicle and try to com-

pete again in sport and is now training full-time to become a member of Canada’s national long track speed skating team.

Popke and Svejkovsky, who have worked with several NHL players to improve their skating and skills with the Vancouver Hockey School which Popke formed, will head up the on-ice presentation.

Recently retired as an NHL player, Brad Lukowich—who just signed on as an assistant coach with the Lethbridge Broncos— is expected to be among the many coaches from various levels of hockey attending the conference, says Wilbur.

“He’s coming out to get a head start on his coaching career, just like the other coaches from all over North America and Europe including dads trying to improve to help their team of eight-year-olds,” he says.

Although already 80 per cent sold out, it’s still possible to reserve your seat at the 2013 conference which is $399 for the three days. E-mail info@thecoachessite. com for more details.

Alyssa and Kareem from Seattle and Natasha & Dickson from Vancouver (top left photo) were the winners in Tourism Richmond’s Dash and Dine—a competitive race inviting enthusiastic, food loving teams of two to eat, experience and tweet their way through Richmond’s two acclaimed Asian night markets. Each team won $1000 that they split.

While driving a shuttle bus for RF Luxury last January Doug Woods was given a soccer ball from a Whitehorse school to take to school children in Nairobi, Kenya. The passengers on the shuttle bus were staying at the Richmond Days Inn. Woods reports that the mission is accomplish, the brand new soccer balls has been delivered.

Mr. Woods and nine others are a part of a volunteer team who travelled to Nairobi, Kenya on July 6. The 10-member team raised $35,000 before they arrive two weeks ago to fund the five classroom space expansion.

For the last six months Woods, a resident of Richmond, had been handing out “thank you” cards to his passengers when they tip him for his service while driving a shuttle bus to and from YVR. These tips along with his wages enabled him to join the team going to Kenya to build a school.

Each team member paid their own travel and living expenses for this trip to Kenya.

This addition will mean space for 125 new students from the Kawangware community.

IKEA dispute heads into 12th week www.richmonddaysofsummer.com

Mediator on board to find common ground on tiered-wage system

Police report on fatal crash could take a year

by Matthew Hoekstra

Staff Reporter

Staff Reporter

Approximately 325 unionized IKEA workers are heading into their 12th week on the picket line following a third session of mediation that failed to resolve the labour dispute.

“We need to find a fair resolution that gets everyone to work as soon as possible so we can get on with business. We’re hopeful that mediation will get us there,” said IKEA spokesperson Madeleine Löwenborg-Frick.

Teamsters Local 213 and the Swedish furniture giant met with a mediator this week to address the union’s concerns of a tiered wage system and the union’s expulsion of 27 workers who crossed the picket line and returned to work, according to Löwenborg-Frick.

“We don’t think this strike is in anyone’s interest,” she said. “IKEA is committed to finding a fair resolution for everybody.”

Löwenborg-Frick said the company’s original offer involved no wage reduction for current employees and “exceeds industry averages.”

A tiered-wage system is something the union previously fought to eliminate. It was successful for some employees, but not all. Now IKEA wants all employees on a tiered system, putting it at odds with unionized workers.

Teamsters Local 213 representative Anita Dawson said although the company’s initial offer didn’t cut employee wages, it did cut their chances to move up the pay scale.

Meetings between the two sides and the mediator are scheduled to continue Monday, according to Dawson.

“Having somebody else look at it from maybe a different perspective can help and offer suggestions, ideas and remedies to resolve this thing,” said Dawson.

A crowd of 200 people—unionized workers, labour leaders and politicians, including B.C. NDP leader Adrian Dix—rallied outside the Richmond store July 20 in a show of support for the picketers.

The B.C. Federation of Labour issued a statement following the Saturday rally calling on the public to boycott the Richmond and Coquitlam stores—the

It could take many more months before the Richmond RCMP investigation is completed into the fatal May 8 collision involving a $200,000 sports car and several vehicles stopped at a red light at Knight Street and Westminster Highway.

Richmond RCMP Sgt. Cam Kowalski said the passenger in the Aston Martin—estimated by one witness to be travelling at 200 km/h at the time of the crash—remains in hospital. Last month, the driver was still in the intensive care unit, though Kowalski didn’t have an update on her condition.

One part of the investigation is looking at the mechanical condition of the Aston Martin, with an inspection searching for clues as to the cause of the crash. That also includes a look at the vehicle’s black box, which should give collision reconstructionists an idea of the speed and direction of the vehicle, when and if the air bags deployed, and when and if the vehicle’s brakes were engaged.

Speaking in generalities, Kowalski said an investigation of this complexity could take six to 12 months.

But that becomes more complicated when those involved are seriously injured, which can impact the length of recovery and the time when investigators can conduct interviews.

Once the RCMP’s report is completed, if it decides that charges should be recommended, investigators will forward the report to the Crown.

If the Crown agrees that there’s a substantial likelihood of conviction and files charges, that decision will be made public, Kowalski said.

company’s two B.C. locations—until the dispute is resolved. “[C]ustomers choosing to patronize the Coquitlam location, while the strike is on at the Richmond location, are assisting the company in breaking the strike,” the statement says.

Pickets went up at the Jacombs Road store May 13. The Richmond store is one of two IKEA retail locations in North America that is unionized. The other is in Montreal, Que. The local store remains open with reduced hours, but its restaurant and children’s play area are closed.
