Brentwood tower sells out in hours Queue for first tower started three days before Wanda Chow

wchow@burnabynewsleader.com

There was so much interest in the first tower at Brentwood mall that its marketers stopped advertising two weeks before units went on sale Saturday. “We felt there was enough demand, why throw gasoline on the fire at this point?” said Tracie McTavish, president of Rennie Marketing Systems.

Seems it was the right call. The first person in line showed up Wednesday afternoon. Eventually, those who camped out for days in tents led off the queue that ran along the outside and around the back of the sales centre at the northwest corner of the mall site. While sales were supposed to start at noon on Saturday, Rennie staff opened the doors at 11 a.m. and by about 3:30 p.m., all 288 available units were sold, said McTavish. The only remaining units, three penthouse suites, were not for sale

because their designs have not been finalized. Those are expected to go on the market in the fall. Units snapped up Saturday ranged from $299,000 to $949,000, the latter for a three-bedroom suite. “This is one of the few times in the recent past where there was a lot of end-users,” McTavish said. He estimated 50 to 60 per cent of the buyers plan to live in the units. The rest are “passive investors,” such as people who are “tired of having money sitting in the bank earning nothing,” see it as an

alternative to an RRSP, or who bought for a son or daughter to move into. A small portion of the investors would likely rent out their units, he said. Many buyers were downsizing from homes in the area or have lived in North Burnaby before, he said. All buyers had Lower Mainland addresses. There was also a broad age range of buyers, from 20s to 70s, which “makes for a more vibrant community, not all young, not all old, it’s a real mixed bag.”

A man is in hospital after being shot outside the McDonald’s restaurant at Brentwood mall Saturday night. Burnaby RCMP received a number of calls about shots fired at about 8:30 p.m. When officers arrived they found a man with gunshot wounds. He was taken to hospital where he is recovering from serious, non-lifethreatening injuries, said Staff Sgt. Ghalib Bhayani. Witnesses reported seeing two people running from the scene. “Additional investigation has identified possible suspects,” Bhayani said. Investigators will be canvassing witnesses and seeking surveillance video footage. While the McDonald’s was open, the rest of the mall was closed at the time. “It appears to be a targeted shooting, this is not a random incident.” According to media reports, the victim is 51 years old. Before he was shot he was to meet with two men, who are both now considered suspects.

Kids’ book celebrates differences Brandee Bublé draws on experience as mom, special needs teacher Wanda Chow

wchow@burnabynewsleader.com

It’s been a whirlwind last few weeks for Brandee Bublé since her first children’s book, O’Shae The Octopus, launched earlier this month. She’s done countless interviews for TV, radio, newspapers and magazines here and in Toronto. And she’s even getting requests for her autograph. “People are like, ‘I hate to bug you…’ I’m like, ‘Bug me? Oh my gosh, are you kidding me? That doesn’t bug me, I’m so excited’ … I’m over the moon.” Brandee, 36, says with a laugh that for 12 years she’s gotten used to people asking her to get them the autograph of her big brother, music superstar Michael Bublé. Now it’s her signature they want. “It makes me laugh. I can’t believe it.” While she now lives in Coquitlam, Brandee, like her family, has deep roots in Burnaby. She attended Seaforth elementary and graduated from Cariboo Hill secondary. Before she became a stay-athome mom, she worked with special needs students, including a seven-year stint at Maywood elementary. That’s where she started honing her storytelling skills. Brandee would write stories for her students, sometimes with rhymes, as a fun way to help them learn. Then when she had her own kids—son O’Shae, 11, and daughter Jayde, 9—she’d always read bedtime stories to them but would promise to make up a few of her own too. “So many of these stories were made up in my kids’ beds and as soon as they fell asleep I’d run and write down all the

ideas I’d put down. That’s how they were made.” She’s got 15 stories now and the publisher is turning it into a series dubbed “One of a Kind Books.” They all have a similar theme. “They’re all different animals that have something that sets them apart from other animals, but they realize by embracing it they can be pretty cool,” Brandee said. “As a mom, I love books that have messages, I love books you can start discussion around.” The first in the series, O’Shae the Octopus, centres on an octopus who has 10 arms instead of eight and includes themes such as bullying. In addition to her work with special needs students, Brandee drew on her experience having been diagnosed with dyslexia in Grade 1. Back then, schools held such students back, so she did Grade 1 twice, much to her embarrassment. Just last year, her daughter Jayde was also diagnosed with dyslexia. “I love that this book, for my kids, is a representation that the label never stopped me from

YOUR HEARING IS A PRICELESS GIFT DON’T TAKE IT FOR GRANTED.

doing what I always dreamed of. Look, I’ve got a book out.” But Brandee stressed her stories are not just about kids with special needs. “I mean, if you have red hair, or freckles or glasses. My son had glasses. I remember him feeling out of place for a bit. I constantly tell my kids, if you believe in you, other people will too. So be confident, walk tall and nobody will think twice.” Michael wrote the foreword of the book and described how he identifies with O’Shae. He was listening to Frank Sinatra in the ’80s when it wasn’t exactly considered cool. “But now he realizes it didn’t make him weird, it made him pretty special because now he’s got something that not a lot of people have,” Brandee said. “He’s taken that genre and it’s reborn through him.” Along with O’Shae being named after her son, Lanny the Lobster is named after her brother-in-law and Mean Mike the Manta Ray is named after Michael. She stressed he’s not a bully. “But he is my older brother,

so if you asked me at five years old I probably would’ve said yes. He forced me to play hockey a lot if that counts,” she said with a laugh. “We would go in the garage and he would make me and my little sister [Crystal] stand in goal. We would just have to stand there as he shot, not pucks, but tennis ball after tennis ball after tennis ball.” Michael has “taken us along for the ride” of his success, said Brandee, who is not naive about the benefits of his celebrity. She realizes there will always be people who downplay her accomplishment because of her brother’s fame. “You know what? I’m not too proud or dumb ... I’m not going to say, no, it didn’t help me. Of course it did, it got my foot in the door … but hopefully it’s my words that have taken me farther.” And if she needed any further validation, who better to give it than Bruce Allen, the straighttalking manager she now shares with Michael? “He said to me, ‘Kid, I don’t know anything about kids books, but I know this is good. And don’t think I’m stupid enough to take this just because you’re Michael Bublé’s sister because that would just make me look stupid.’” Work has already started on the second book in the series, Jayde the Jaybird (named after her daughter this time) to be released in the summer of 2015. Meanwhile, she’s been nurturing the proud momma side of her life. When Brandee received her first advanced copies of the book, Jayde asked to read it to her class. Knowing how hard her daughter has worked with a special tutor to overcome her dyslexia made it an extra special moment. “To see her read my book that day, it was amazing. And she was so proud.”

Closer look at Southgate Burnaby residents can get a closer look at the draft concept plans for the proposed Southgate neighbourhood at an open house Thursday, June 26, 5:30 to 9 p.m. at the Alan Emmott Centre, 6650 Southoaks Crescent. The Southgate community is being planned for the 48-acre former Safeway distribution centre and dairy plant site between 15th and 18th streets and 11th and 14th avenues. It also includes two city-owned properties, 7701 and 7679 18th St., to create an east-west connection to the City in the Park neighbourhood and the Edmonds SkyTrain station. It proposes several different forms of housing, including up to 20 towers ranging in height from 19 to 46 storeys. At its heart would be a five-acre park owned and operated by Burnaby city hall. The property closed as a distribution centre for Canada Safeway when the operation was moved to Langley in 2011. The site was purchased by developer Ledingham McAllister in December 2011.

Frankie Cena concert Burnaby native Frankie Cena performs his first-ever solo concert at Michael J. Fox Theatre on Thursday, June 26 at 6:30 p.m. “It was so important for me to have my first show in Burnaby,” said Cena, 22. “This is where I went to school, this is where I grew and developed as a person. I’ve hosted numerous events and performed many times at this theatre. It feels like home.” Along with completing a University of B.C. commerce degree, Cena’s recent credits have included stints as an American Eagle model and Mr. World Canada. The show will feature a band directed by Trevor Hoffman and guest singers including Burnaby’s Stephanie Standerwick, Jerrica Santos of Surrey, Ria Jade and Iris Del Castillo of Maple Ridge, Gelsy Wong of Vancouver, and Jessica Zraly of Coquitlam.

A 23-year-old Burnaby man is among those charged in a nationwide child pornography investigation. Across Canada, more than 150 people were arrested or are under investigation as part of Operation Snapshot III, which began in February and involved over 40 police agencies, said a national RCMP press release. Five children were rescued in the operation which targeted child sex offenders who collect, possess, share, make available, distribute and produce child sexual exploitation material online. It involved 167 investigations across Canada leading to the seizure of thousands of computers and hard drives with nearly two million images or videos. Of those investigations, 29 were in British Columbia of which 22 were in communities policed by RCMP, said E Division spokesman Sgt. Rob Vermeulen. Two of the children rescued were in B.C. and those investigated include 11

B.C. men facing a total of 32 charges, Vermeulen said. The Burnaby man arrested has been charged with two counts of possession of child pornography. A 35-year-old Surrey man faces one charge of luring. Other B.C. suspects include: • a 29-year-old Duncan man, charged with possession and accessing child porn; • a 29-year-old Kelowna man charged with luring and making child porn; • a 43-year-old Nanaimo man charged with possession and making available child porn, sexual interference, invitation to sexual touching, sexual exploitation and sexual assault; • a 31-year-old Revelstoke man charged with possession and accessing child porn, producing a controlled substance, invitation to sexual touching, sexual exploitation and sexual assault; • a 45-year-old Sidney man charged with possession and making available child porn; • a 64-year-old man, also of Sidney, charged with possession, accessing and making available child porn;

• two Vernon men, aged 46 and 49, each charged with possession, accessing and making available child porn; • and a 65-year-old Williams Lake man, charged with possession and distribution of child pornography. Vermeulen said the suspects’ names are not being released because investigations are ongoing and they don’t want to identify the child victims. He expects some information to be the subject of publication bans as a result. He encouraged parents to talk to their kids about Internet safety. “We do such a good job of ‘stranger danger’ in the real world. I think we sometimes forget children are spending a lot of time in the online world now and so we need to have that same chat with them about strangers online,” Vermeulen said. “There’s a lot of so-called friends and followers on social media but they’re unknown, you don’t know who they are … they should be treated like you would treat any stranger and certainly not divulge information.”

Tower ⫸

from FRONT PAGE

The first tower in Shape Properties’ redevelopment of the 28-acre Brentwood mall site will be located at the southwest corner of the property, by the SkyTrain station. At 53 storeys on top of a three-storey commercial podium, the 300 units on the bottom half of the building will be dedicated rental units. That wasn’t an issue at all for the buyers, said McTavish, noting the rental suites will have a separate lobby and elevator and are expected to be highend rental. The existing shopping centre is being retrofitted and new retail space will be built in the podium. As for those who didn’t manage to buy in the first tower, about 100 people were issued VIP cards that will give them first dibs on units in the proposed second tower.

Kinder Morgan’s complaints unfounded: Burnaby Company never applied for permission to do Burnaby Mountain survey work Wanda Chow

vice-president, finance and regulatory. First the company says their application is complete while Burnaby city hall says otherwise, then the company wants to do more studies and change the route, Corrigan said. “Here is an example of the gang that couldn’t shoot straight.” Corrigan stressed Burnaby’s concern isn’t ultimately about what neighbourhood the pipeline is going to travel through. “In this community it’s all about a big terminal that’s going to bring supertankers in. And it’s all about a massive expansion of a tank farm built on a mountain in a place that it shouldn’t be … This has implications far beyond [where the pipeline will go].” As for Anderson’s suggestion “we’re not being nice to him,” Corrigan said, “of course we’re not. We don’t agree with what he’s doing. We don’t think he’s being nice to us … If he was nice he would just stop doing this, it’s costing a lot of money.” Meanwhile, the federal government has given its

approval to Enbridge’s Northern Gateway pipeline proposal, subject to it meeting more than 200 conditions. But Corrigan doesn’t think that will help Burnaby’s cause against Kinder Morgan’s proposal. That would require a Trans Mountain proposal to no longer fit in the plans once Northern Gateway goes ahead. “But there is no plan. The national government has no plan. Their only plan is to do what the lobbyists tell them to do,” he said. Canada needs to balance the export of oil against its future needs. But that’s not being planned for either. The only plan is on the part of the oil industry that wants to get as much oil out of the ground and to their markets as quickly as possible, Corrigan said. “That will mean that everybody will make their money before we wake up and smell the coffee.” Trans Mountain officials did not respond to email requests for comment before the NewsLeader’s deadline.

Kinder Morgan Canada wants to study a potential new route for its proposed Trans Mountain pipeline expansion. But the company’s president Ian Anderson has been complaining in the media that Burnaby city hall has been less than cooperative in those efforts. Mention that to Burnaby Mayor Derek Corrigan and you can almost hear him roll his eyes over the phone. “I find it ironic that we keep hearing Goliath saying David isn’t being nice to me.” Burnaby did cooperate and had more than 100 contacts with the company leading up to it filing its expansion application with the National Energy Board (NEB). But after looking into the proposal, city hall decided to formally oppose it. But that’s beside the point when it comes to the company’s complaint to the NEB that Burnaby turned down its application to do geotechnical studies in the Burnaby Mountain Conservation Area. “That just wasn’t true,” Corrigan said. “They tried to get an application through by using a third party who didn’t mention they work for Kinder Morgan. In that case, we certainly refused it. “We have no reason to provide someone with the opportunity to go up boring in Burnaby Mountain. And so they withdrew and didn’t make any application.” Kinder Morgan %† confirmed that was the case in a letter to 2-YEAR the NEB clarifying the TERM DEPOSIT situation.

OPINION

PUBLISHED & PRINTED BY BLACK PRESS LTD. at 7438 Fraser Park Drive, Burnaby, B.C. V5J 5B9

NEWSLEADER’S VIEW:

QUESTION OF THE WEEK:

Debating essentials

LAST WEEK:

Hospital emergency departments are essential, no doubt. Ditto police, fire, rescue and ambulance services. Anything concerned with health and safety, like access to food and clean water could also be deemed essential. Public transportation, perhaps, for those with no other options for getting from A to B. Waste removal might also qualify. But is any part of the education process “essential?” That’s what the Labour Relations Board ruled this month in the provincial government’s so-far failed negotiations with teachers. To be sure, having schools behind picket lines is a huge inconvenience for all involved. So is any delay receiving marks and transcripts, particularly when deadlines loom for entry for postsecondary. But as essential as education may be in the long term, in the short term it’s doubtful the temporary absence of any part of the educational chain poses a threat to life and limb. There’s a certain irony to a government saying provincial exams for Grades 10-12 and finals marks for grads are an essential service. After all, the crux of the argument for striking workers is that for years education has been treated as anything but. If the service is essential, one might argue it is essential to maintain it and pay for it. The provincial government says teachers’ current pay demands are unreasonable in this economy. The teachers, on the other hand, say it is a bill past due—just as concerns about class size and composition could, and probably should, have been addressed in more economically certain times. While the conservative mantra of “one can’t spend what one doesn’t have” sounds reasonable, it’s harder to maintain when, at a moment’s notice, the goal posts can be moved by government fiat. —Peace Arch News

Pipeline approval fraught with risks The Northern Gateway pipeline is one of the most ambitious, controversial, and potentially dangerous projects ever proposed in Canada. The 1,177-kilometre twin pipeline, which will carry diluted bitumen from Bruderheim, Alberta to Kitimat, B.C., will traverse some of B.C.’s most remote, pristine and geologically unstable terrain. The federal government, as widely expected, last week approved its construction—yet it is a decision almost as risky politically as it is environmentally. Supporters, led by Calgarybased Enbridge Inc., the pipeline’s designer and builder, claim it will generate billions in economic activity. Opponents are concerned about the environmental damage of inland and coastal spills that could cost billions to clean up—if bitumen released in coastal waters can even be captured. While the media often describes the pipeline’s main adversaries as “environmentalists and First Nations,” polling reveals most British Columbians oppose it.

Darin Nesbitt A clear and decisive majority—between 60 to 65 per cent—disapprove of the pipeline. Opposition rises higher when British Columbians are further asked their views of shipping bitumen by supertankers through the Douglas Channel. The level of opposition is noteworthy given the extraordinary public relations efforts by Enbridge and other influential pipeline advocates. Enbridge saturated B.C. with television, newspaper, and internet advocacy—in addition to lobbying regional, municipal, and First Nations governments in central B.C.—to counter public opinion. The energy and resource industries extolled the economic benefits of extracting and selling Canada’s natural resources through extensive national

media campaigns. The federal government itself is singularly committed as a matter of policy to Canada becoming an “energy superpower.” Some ministers revealed the federal cabinet’s support of the pipeline while the National Energy Board’s Joint Review Panel was still assessing the proposal. In spite of these forceful actors and decision-makers, opposition to the pipeline in B.C. remains deep and widespread. Kitimat rejected the pipeline in a local plebiscite even though the town would be the main beneficiary of the B.C. jobs generated. The Yinka Dene Alliance of five First Nations posted public notices and warnings to Enbridge employees not to trespass on their lands. There’s even an effort to launch a provincial initiative— the same plebiscitary device that forced the B.C. provincial government to repeal the despised harmonized sales tax. Governments frequently (and frustratingly) defy the public will, but there are electoral consequences in doing so. The

proposed pipeline is not—as often so with natural resource projects—dividing rural and urban British Columbians. The issue also transcends political party affiliation for voters, which means the federal government’s decision may alienate its own supporters in B.C. The Harper government currently represents 21 of the 36 B.C. federal ridings. How British Columbians voted in the last federal election was the difference between Mr. Harper and the federal Conservatives leading a majority or a minority government. B.C. will have 42 seats in the next national election—an increase of six based on population growth over the past 10 years. If approving an unpopular pipeline festers like an open wound amongst British Columbians—as did the HST—Mr. Harper’s government may pay a steep political price for its decision.

COMMENT

Mayor’s just doing his job Re: Mayor ignores pipeline benefits (Letters, NewsLeader, June 18) It’s clear to all the Burnaby residents that I talk to that the alleged benefits of the proposed Trans Mountain Pipeline expansion are outweighed by the risks associated with the project. Should it proceed, the risk will be bitumen leaks, not semirefined oil leaks. Our foreshore is still recovering from the Kinder Morgan leak near Westridge Terminal several years ago. I cannot imagine the scale of environmental damage if diluted bitumen spilled within Burnaby or in Burrard Inlet. Mayor and council are representing the majority view of Burnaby residents. That’s what they’re elected to do. Peter Cech Burnaby

FHA REVIEW SHOULD BE SHARED Re: CEO leaves Fraser Health as big changes loom (NewsLeader, June 11) I am very concerned that the Minister of Health and the interim board chair for Fraser Health, Wynne Powell, have indicated that they do not intend to make the operational review of Fraser Health Authority public. Instead the findings of the review will be incorporated into a new three-year strategic plan. Given the potential impact that the review could have on Burnaby Hospital, as well as neighbouring facilities in New Westminster, Surrey and the TriCities, transparency in this process is essential. The information in the review should be available so that the public can know and understand the evidence behind major decisions on Fraser Health’s future and provide input. Replacing or significantly upgrading Burnaby Hospital is a central issue that needs to be addressed, but has not been by the Liberal government.

Why should we be left in the dark when important decisions are being made? Powell has claimed that the review is too complex to be made available to the public, but I would suggest that healthcare professionals, stakeholders and citizens have the opportunity to interpret the findings for themselves. Kathy Corrigan MLA Burnaby-Deer Lake

NO MORE TAXES Re: Mayors seek carbon tax, road pricing for Translink As a senior on a fixed income, I would not tolerate any increase in any kind of fee or tax without an equivalent raise in my pensions. Most of these transit improvements would not benefit me additionally. The cost per litre of gasoline in Metro Vancouver is already ridiculously high. I was reminded yesterday when I bought gas in Ladysmith for $1.379, $0.10/L less than Surrey. Bob Molesworth

Where History Comes to Life

F MILY

Helping kids make friends Students learn lessons each day. While many of these lessons pertain to their coursework, kids pick up much more than book smarts from school, where kids first learn to cultivate friendships and build lasting relationships. While many kids find it easy to make new friends, others might need some assistance so they can make the most of opportunities to socialize and form friendships that might last a lifetime. • Offer opportunities for socialization. Children should be given the chance to explore friendships outside of the classroom where peer pressure might not be so prevalent. Establish a carpool or invite a classmate over for a play date. Unstructured time to play or get to know each other is a great way to establish friendships. Invite new children over each time to see which friendships are the strongest, but make sure you are not pushing a friendship on your child.

Healthy families, healthy smiles DLE is accepting new patients! Dr. Edmond Woo and Dr. Dorothy Yung

• Discover common interests. One of the quickest ways to build friendships is through common interests, says Kirk Martin, a behavioral therapist and author. Encourage your child to join a club or sports group where he or she can meet other kids with similar interests. Sometimes finding reasons to talk other children is the most difficult step to making new friends. Sharing a common interest removes this barrier. • Teach proper manners. Children who are polite, wellmannered and know how to follow direction are better equipped to attract friends. Children who misbehave may be shunned by other kids and their parents who do not want the hassle of an unruly youngster coming over to play. Respectful children who are honest, trustworthy and capable of sustaining eye contact and making small talk may find it easy to make friends.

“We are committed to offering every patient personalized, compassionate care in conjunction with a treatment plan that’s based on their clinical needs as well as their own dental vision”

Both doctors have been in practice in the Lower Mainland for over 24 years. Both UBC graduates have had extensive experience in community dentistry and had been active for a number of years as clinical instructors of their undergrad alumnae. They have continued to be active in advanced education on all aspects of dental procedures to ensure that their patients receive the most effective and current dental treatment available. They are both committed to offering every patient personalized and compassionate care while maintaining a pain-free and relaxing environment.

• Take the friendship lead. As parents, you can improve your child’s chances of making friends by getting friendly with their classmates’ parents. You don’t have to become bosom buddies with everyone, but making connections can reinforce the value of friendship to your children. Socializing as families also presents other opportunities to get together and solidify relationships. • Boost confidence levels. As a parent you can talk to your children about their strengths and positive attributes. Emphasizing kids’ best traits will increase their self-esteem, and that sense of self-worth can make it easier for them to make friends. A child who is shy and insecure may retreat when meeting new people, but a child who can proudly stand behind his or her accomplishments may attract friends easily. School is about more than just hitting the books. It’s also a time to develop personal skills and make new friends.

10 years for 2012 killing Jail sentence for woman who killed best friend Sheila Reynolds Black Press

A 25-year-old woman who pleaded guilty this week to stabbing her best friend to death two years ago has been sentenced to 10 years in prison. Jessica Hanley was charged with the second-degree murder of 23-year-old Burnaby resident Tashina Rae Sutherland. Hanley’s trial had been underway since May 26, when she pleaded not guilty in B.C. Supreme Court in New Westminster. However, last Monday (June 16), three weeks after her trial began, Hanley pleaded guilty to the lesser charge of manslaughter.

Jessica Hanley has seven years, nine months left in her 10-year sentence.

On Wednesday, Justice Elizabeth Arnold Bailey sentenced Hanley to 10 years in prison. With time already spent in pretrial custody, there are seven years and nine months left of her sentence. During the trial, the court heard that Hanley and

Sutherland had been drinking and doing cocaine the night before Sutherland’s death. They were partying at Hanley’s boyfriend’s home near 138 Street and 106 Avenue – where the women continued to drink the following morning. At some point when the two were alone in the house that day, Hanley attacked Sutherland, stabbing her multiple times in the living room and then dragging her to the bathroom, where she continued the attack with a second knife. In all, Sutherland suffered 41 stab wounds. The court heard that Hanley texted her boyfriend and told him she’d killed Sutherland, and later went to her dad’s house and told him the same thing. Her father took her to the police and she was arrested.

With the public input received at the Southgate Neighbourhood Ideas Open House #1 (held 2013 April 18), City of Burnaby staff have developed a draft Concept Plan for the proposed neighbourhood, one that envisions the transformation, over time, of the existing industrial site (formerly Safeway Distribution Complex and Dairy Plant site) into a community of complete neighbourhood areas, each of which express a definitive sense of place and character. At the heart of the proposed Southgate Neighbourhood is a five-acre central park, which stretches over a quarter mile through the centre of the development site. The draft Concept Plan sets out to create a truly memorable place where residents and the broader Edmonds Town Centre community will want to live, shop and play.
