MARIO BARTEL/NEWSLEADER

The Anvil Centre is about to become a part of the changing face of Downtown New Westminster. The $50-million arts and cultural centre is celebrating its official opening on Sunday. See MORE PHOTOS, A3

ANVIL CENTRE DEBUTS ON SUNDAY Open house noon-6 p.m.

Mario Bartel NewsLeader

The new Anvil Centre is a little bit of everything.

It’s a cultural centre for performances of music, theatre and dance.

It’s an arts centre where artists can hone their creativity and

show their work.

It’s a gallery for leading edge new media.

It’s a museum and archive to preserve the city’s past and tell its stories into the future.

It’s a Hall of Fame to celebrate Canada’s lacrosse heroes.

It’s a meeting place. For business and pleasure.

But mostly, the Anvil Centre is

a symbol for British Columbia’s oldest city taking a bold step into the future.

It cost the city of New Wesminster more than $41 million to build the new Anvil Centre, which officially opens to the public on Sunday with a daylong celebration.

New Westminster’s Downtown Business Improvement Association is putting some money behind its purpose.

The association has launched the first phase of a program to provide grants and resources to businesses in the city’s Downtown to improve the appearance of their buildings and storefronts.

The money, which is being provided by a collaboration of BIA members and property owners, can be used for things like power washing facades or putting up new signage. It’s hoped those efforts will make the Downtown a more inviting place, as well as create a cohesive look to the area, said Maddison McKitrick, program and events coordinator for the Downtown BIA. “Some buildings need a little more TLC than others,” said McKitrick. “We want to help property owners and business owners achieve their desired frontage that they can be proud of.”

The second phase of the program—to help renovate, restore and redesign storefronts, will be launched in September 2015.

The deadline for applications, available only to BIA members, is Sept. 30.

Champagne Taste is the most exciting new and consignment furniture store in British Columbia. And the first choice for people wishing to part with their gently used items.

Wright to seek fifth term Mario Bartel

photo@newwestnewsleader.com

Wayne Wright is running for the job of mayor again in November’s municipal election.

If successful, it will be his fifth term. Wright, 71, said he’s still got “the fire in the belly.”

“When I look at the city and see the excitement that’s still brewing, I want to be a part of that,” said Wright. “It’s a feeling more than anything.”

But, he admits, in the spring he wasn’t sure he’d run again.

His beloved Ford Bronco had been totalled in an accident, and he was working long hours.

An extended break through August and part of July that included a holiday in Australia reenergized him, said Wright.

“I’m not finished working,” he said. “I have to do something and my heart is still here in this particular job.”

Wright pointed to recent accomplishments as examples of the “leadership and vision needed for the economic and social needs facing our city.”

Those include the new Anvil Centre multi-use civic facility, the “Wait for Me Daddy” war memorial statue being unveiled Oct. 4, and the establishment of Honour House, a respite home for military and first responder personnel and their families who’ve come to town for medical treatment.

“We have accomplished many projects, but we have more to do,” said Wright.

Those include the continued development of the waterfront, building a pedestrian connection to Queensborough and wrestling with the city’s ongoing traffic problems.

But Coun. Jonathan Coté, who’s already announced his

candidacy for the mayor’s job, said it’s time for a new perspective in the position.

“What we need in the mayor’s office is not necessarily one big mega project after another,” said Coté, who was informed by Wright of his decision to run in a private meeting in his office.

Wright admitted Coté presents a serious challenge.

“I know I’m up against a machine,” he said. “[Coté’s] young, he’s educated, he’s good.”

But he’s short on experience, said Wright.

“I’m just going to continue the way I am,” said Wright.

Coté said he welcomes the challenge of running against an incumbent.

“We’re hearing it’s time for a new direction,” said Coté. “I wouldn’t be running if I didn’t think it was time for a change.”

We began considering selling our townhouse in Burnaby in December and upgrading into a detached house if possible -- depending on what we sold our townhouse for. We interviewed a few agents to find the right ones that would confidently sell our place and listen to our needs and wants for the new place.

When we found Lyle and Sandy, they were quite happy and able to spend a fair amount of time ensuring we were comfortable with our listing price and the listing process and gave helpful feedback on what we could do to better our chances of a quick sale and closure.

As a team, they were simply amazing throughout the selling process. Their efforts to market and show the place were fantastic. They also really kept open and honest communication

about their impressions, potential buyer impressions, and market interest - something we really valued.

Once we sold and moved out of our townhouse, Lyle and Sandy kept us up to date on the fast-paced detached housing market. Places were being sold before hitting the public MLS pages so their input on what was fresh on the market and a ‘good-buy’ was invaluable.

Lyle and Sandy were very professional but also very social and forthright in the way they communicated with us and we were assured that they always had our best interest in mind.

They were very responsive to all emails, calls and text messages and were there for most of our major appointments which was appreciated. ~ Daniel & Megan N.

published & printed by blACk press ltd. at 7438 Fraser Park Drive, Burnaby, B.C. V5J 5B9

PHOTO OF THE WEEK: Mary Trentadue took this photo recently at Westminster Pier Park in New West, where they’ve installed beach sand, umbrellas and hammocks.

Fox Run a legacy Sunday, Sept. 14, is the 34th anniversary of the Terry Fox Run. If you don’t know the story, you’re likely not Canadian. But it is an incredible legacy.

It is highly unlikely that when Terry first dipped his artificial leg into the Atlantic Ocean on April 12, 1980, to start his Marathon of Hope, he had any idea of the lasting effect he would have.

An entire country followed his lead, after his run was cut short, just outside of Thunder Bay, Ont., five months later. Spurred by Isadore Sharp, of Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts, an annual fundraising run was organized in his name.

“You started it. We will not rest until your dream to find a cure for cancer is realized,” said Sharp in a telegram to the Fox family.

And so it began.

Now, 34 years later, dozens of countries participate in the annual Terry Fox Run. The Terry Fox Foundation has grown to in excess of $650 million, to support cancer research in Terry’s name.

To most, the thought of that much money not already producing a cure is unfathomable.

The problem is the disease itself.

It is the most baffling disease known, because of its inconsistencies.

It can run in the family, but it’s not genetic.

It can be caused by smoking, but smoking does not invariably lead to lung cancer.

It can be deadly, but it can also be benign.

Before a definitive cure for cancer can be achieved, a link between all cancers must be discovered. We are not there yet.

Terry’s initial letter to the Canadian Cancer Society, asking for support of his Marathon of Hope, included the line “I’m not a dreamer, and I’m not saying this will initiate any kind of definitive answer or cure to cancer, but I believe in miracles.”

Anvil will infuse Downtown with energy When it was announced years ago that a big chunk of casino money, called Development Assistance Compensation (DAC) was earmarked for a civic centre in the Downtown, my first vision was a conventional recreation centre.

A gym, perhaps, and a bunch of programming rooms. But then they talked about convention space. And a theatre. And a museum. And, through public consultation, art gallery space and lots of space for community groups were added.

“Look at the results,” Mayor Wayne Wright said during a media tour of the Anvil Centre on Tuesday. “I think this one is going to blow their socks off.”

So you just might want to wear sandals if you go to the open house on Sunday.

Visually, it’s stunning. It’s got a sleek, modern-yet-classic look, blending light stone tile and warm wood panelling with metal and lots of glass.

And everywhere you look there are angles, angles and more angles. I can just imagine the builders finding out someone had replaced all their T-squares with

Chris Bryan V-squares.

The Anvil’s “anchor,” so to speak, is its 350-seat theatre whose walls are clad in tile. It’s like a building within a building, the exterior walls plunging through the glass into the grand foyer, contributing to an illusion blurring the separation from the street. The theatre wall is pitched 11 degrees in the grand foyer, with three, 60-foot concrete pillars on the same angle.

Nothing is static in the Anvil.

All over the facility are walls that move. The grand foyer can open into the conference space next door, and boost the conference space to 9,000 square feet.

Walls fold away and disappear, or can emerge from nowhere.

The large glass doors fronting the building also slide open so events can spill out onto the

sidewalk.

So far, interest in the conference and event space is high. More than 100 bookings have either been confirmed or are in progress. Unions, Crown corporations, financial institutions, weddings and community groups. RE/MAX has booked a “super sales rally” on Sept. 25 with 400 realtors.

The concession, I’m told, will adapt its menu to the event or organization of the day.

Ascending the grand staircase to the upper floors, there’s the entrance to the theatre with seats that—surprise!—can be tucked away to transform the space for banquet tables. Or adapt from conventional format to theatrein-the-round setting to allow, say, a soloist on a grand piano to perch in the centre of the room.

The Anvil is very much like a puzzle, with so many pieces that not only assemble, but re-assemble too.

On the second floor you’ll find the archives reading room, where you can tap into the city’s history.

And on the third, arts and culture in New West goes through a time warp.

There’s the Dufferin coach and a Model T Ford in the museum, but the gorgeous interpretive panels span more than 10,000 years, right up to the present.

And a special area called “Gallery 7,” intends to look at contemporary issues and concerns that are unfolding in New West, and bring people together to engage and discuss.

The New Media Gallery, unfortunately, wasn’t ready for viewing. But this could well have the biggest “wow” factor on Sunday.

And I haven’t even mentioned the art studios, dance studios and other programming space in the Anvil.

Regardless, you should go.

Judge for yourself.

A few years ago, that block of Columbia Street was an eyesore, with a bunch of run-down shops and the ubiquitous cheque cashing place. The Anvil will infuse that block with positive energy. This is a big deal.

New civic facilities like this don’t come along often in New Westminster.

And this one is a gem. editor@newwestnewsleader.com

Marry in haste, repent in leisure I read with interest the proposal and various letters about the Whitecaps’ USL team and the stadium at Queen’s Park.

I also closely followed the extensive and well documented Queen’s Park rejuvenation plans between January 2012 and May 2013.

I note that the report indicated the stadium needs upgrading.

Prior to moving to the city, I lived within blocks of Central Park and Swangard stadium for over 30 years, so I am well-acquainted with all that is involved with living in close proximity to a large stadium, even without soccer games.

I closely followed all the various local newspaper headlines, letters and reports to Burnaby City Council about the team’s proposals to improve the stadium when they were granted MLS status in 2008.

After a somewhat lengthy and contentious time those plans fell through, and they moved from Burnaby to Vancouver, where the team’s proposal for a new stadium also fell through.

Both city councils seemed to find major fault and issues with who was footing the bills and for how much.

Like others I am not impressed with the proposal.

There are too many “may” and “should” words about increasing local revenue, and recognition, and putting Queen’s Park Stadium on the soccer world’s map, and very little about the actual costs (which almost always end up being higher than anticipated) and who exactly is paying those costs.

I am not happy that the city and its citizens are being asked to basically turn part of its crown jewel park over to a private for-profit corporation.

This area has virtually nothing in the way of pre/post game entertainment like pubs or restaurants.

Transit is virtually nonexistent.

And 3,500 fans need to park their cars somewhere and pay an unknown amount for “family entertainment.”

Why is this necessary when there are so many other family entertainment opportunities in other areas where the

infrastructure is already in place?

Queen’s Park is a suburban oasis of green space, used by a wide variety of people, which is something that is becoming more and more difficult to find in the Lower Mainland.

I am not happy with how quickly the Whitecaps are attempting to push this process through.

As has been famously stated “marry in haste, repent in leisure.”

N. Hebert New Westminster

What about preserving?

It’s disturbing to hear city officials refer to the “deteriorated” condition of Queen’s Park Stadium.

It’s disturbing because it matches what I would expect to hear from private contractors seeking another taxpayerfinanced project.

I’m a structural engineer licensed in Canada and half a dozen states in the U.S. I’ve been to the Queen’s Park Stadium a number of times and have seen no problems beyond the superficial and cosmetic.

I saw nothing worse than minor areas of spalled concrete that can be easily repaired.

Steel-reinforced concrete structures require little maintenance and, in the absence of cataclysmic events like earthquakes, sink holes, etc., they can last almost indefinitely.

I have heard no reports of specific hidden damage or seen anything to suggest that the fundamental stadium structure is less sound than when it was built.

Homeowners don’t tear down their houses when it’s time to paint. This exceptional asset is already bought and paid for.

It should not be undervalued.

We should look to Europe as an example for building and preserving public facilities.

Big Ben and the Tower Bridge are not on the chopping block; and they’re much older than the stadium, the Front Street Parkade, and the Pattullo Bridge combined.

Instead we seem to embrace a “build it and tear it down” mentality.

I don’t get it.

We pay our city officials well

CreW helped turn tide Re: Gillnetter on fire on the Fraser River Captain Doug Leaney and the crew of the MV Native paddlewheeler, together with a small marine vessel from Fraser River Pile & Dredge turned the tide on a fire on the Fraser, helping extinguish the flames of the drifting Frances C just before noon Tuesday, Aug. 19.

With thick black clouds rising and flames reaching 10 to 15 feet, as a passenger aboard the sternwheeler I was struck by the calm professionalism in response to the crisis. They ensured their guests—mostly seniors—onboard were safely stowed.

This very real tragedy could have turned to calamity without the measured reaction of the captains and crews of each of these two ships.

Captain Doug ably navigated the paddlewheeler alongside the burning vessel. Avoiding the unfurled gillnet, and after ensuring the fire was under control, he edged his ship under the Pattullo Bridge and continued our Fraser River tour without breaking the rhythm of paddles striking the waters surface.

Our city should take special pride in the skill and integrity of these mighty river rangers. It is not their first response alone that is admirable, but the spirit in which they enter into this sacred trust.

It has always been so on the river.

As those who live and work on the river know, when the tide turns, they turn to one another.

Lorna Stewart is in the beauty business.

So it’s only natural the owner of Essence Hair Design and Fashion Accessories would want to make her Carnarvon Street storefront beautiful as well.

Every morning Stewart and one of her assistants pulled a giant rattan planter out the front door to the sidewalk.

The 35-inch pot contained a garden of colourful flowers like poppies, with a green potato vine, surrounding a small fir tree.

As the tree grew to almost five feet, the planter became impossible to move, so Stewart left it outside to beautify the busy street around the clock.

She figured since the pot now weighed around 200 pounds, it wasn’t going anywhere.

She was wrong.

Three weeks ago one of Stewart’s employees arrived to open the shop and immediately noticed the planter was gone.

Stewart was gobsmacked.

“To know someone would take something that makes the

neighbourhood look better, it’s just so sad,” said Stewart.

She called the police, but they’ve yet to get back to her with a file number.

She surveyed her neighbours in the strip of shops across from Plaza 88, but they hadn’t seen anything.

Stewart’s landlord checked the footage from a surveillance camera mounted above the sidewalk, but it was pointed the wrong way.

Stewart figures whoever made off with her beloved planter had to have done so in the middle of the night. And they would

have had to have help, possibly a dolly to transport their illgotten garden.

It’s not the first planter theft in the neighbourhood, said Stewart. A nearby sushi restaurant also lost a large decorative display.

Stewart said she has her theories about where the missing planters have gone, eyeing the condo towers across the street suspiciously. But until the case is cracked, she’s trying not to let the incident get her down.

“The flowers looked so much better. Now it’s just drab.”

As outlined in Section 73(5) of the Local Government Act, originals of faxed or emailed nomination documents must be received by the Chief Election Officer by 4:30 pm on Friday, October 17, 2014.

Deadline looms for Caps’ proposal Mario Bartel

photo@newwestnewsleader.com

The clock may be ticking on the Vancouver Whitecaps’ proposal to put a minor professional development soccer team into Queen’s Park Stadium, but New Westminster councillors say they’re not going to be rushed into a decision.

The Major Soccer League team says it has to have an answer from the city about renovations to the venerable structure that would transform it into a soccer-only facility by Monday so it can meet a deadline imposed by the USL PRO league for a franchise application.

A memorandum of understanding between the Whitecaps and city that was reached in July to explore the

possibility of locating the team in New West has pitted soccer proponents against the city’s baseball community, which says it would lose the only full-size park available to its players.

And while each side has said it wants to be able to accommodate the other, the fissure only widened after Monday’s council meeting, held at the Queensborough Community Centre.

Dozens of delegates spoke for and against the proposal, often to enthusiastic applause.

“This is such a polarizing issue,” said Coun. Chuck Puchmayr.

But it’s one that will have to be decided by facts and economic realities, he said.

“My decision will be based on does it make

economic sense for the city.”

Coun. Lorrie Williams said her initial enthusiasm for the project was tempered by the questions she keeps getting asked by the public but can’t answer.

“Emotions are high,” she said. “It’s a domino effect. If we do this then this must happen and that must happen.”

That includes finding a new location for a baseball diamond, not an easy prospect in a small city that’s tight for parkland.

Coun. Betty McIntosh urged her fellow councillors not to bow to the time pressure.

Coun. Jonathan Coté said the reality is there may not be enough time to adequately complete that process.

“I’m disappointed with the amount of information,” he said.

“I don’t think there’s enough out there to properly evaluate whether this is a good opportunity.”

QUEEN’S PARK STADIUM PROPOSAL: 604-521-3255 | NAPADANCE.COM

WHAT WE KNOW AND WHAT WE DON’T KNOW WE KNOW THAT…

WE STILL DON’T KNOW…

• New Westminster Baseball was informed of the Whitecaps’ proposal 10 minutes prior to a news release on July 8, 2014.

• The Queens’ Park Master Plan does not include the building of a new soccer stadium.

• The Whitecaps’ proposal will not “save” the Stadium from demolition, as has been suggested, since it was never in jeopardy of being torn down because of its heritage value.

• The Queens’ Park Residents’ Association stated that 58% of their members voted in favour of the proposal; in fact 29 of 50 respondents supported the proposal—far short of a majority of the Queen’s Park residents.

• The Chamber of Commerce reported that 80.3% of its members supported the proposal. However, the Chamber of Commerce Director confirmed he was unsure if all members were polled, and that only approximately 105 businesses responded.

• Relocating the lost diamond to the south field of Queen’s Park, as suggested by the Parks Board, would entail the removal of 37-40 trees.

• The Whitecaps had yet to provide a cost projection to the Council, with less than one week from their imposed deadline for a decision

• The full cost of this proposal including: Stadium refurbishment, the new turf field and relocation of baseball diamond(s).

• The financial benefits to the City: amount of rent to be received has not been disclosed.

• The length of the Whitecaps’ tenancy commitment.

• If a business plan exists for the proposed USL franchise.

• If an impact study has been completed.

• Whether the project can be completed in time for the 2015 season, nor what financial penalties the City could face if it is not ready.

• How this proposal could affect the budget that has already been passed by City Council.

• What other Parks, Culture and Recreation projects would be delayed if the City were to embark on this endeavour?

• How parking, traffic and transit issues will be handled and who will pay for these.

• How often the community will be “allowed” to use the Stadium for special events or under what conditions.

• Whether teams other than the USL franchise will also play at the Stadium and what impact this

New West Baseball has been in the Stadium for 15 years and has invested $60- $70,000 through our fundraising efforts into the playing surface, scoreboard, batting cages, etc.

We consider the Stadium our home.

Farmland reforms eyed ⫸

continued from page a13

“The decision would create a ‘slippery slope’ situation that could easily result in an escalation of agricultural land values to the extent that farmers would be unable to afford land in the ALR,” it says.

“I can see all sorts of businesses buying up farmland thinking ‘We can operate our body shop on farmland,’” Delta Coun. Ian Paton said.

Metro opposed most of the proposed changes in its submission, urging the province to shelve them and first bolster enforcement of rules that ban illegal fill dumping on ALR land, retail sale of products that come mostly from off the farm and to deter the building of giant country estate mansions on farmland.

Paton also questioned how any eased business restrictions can be enforced since the Agricultural Land Commission has just two bylaw enforcement officers to patrol the entire province.

Richmond Coun. Harold Steves noted wineries already set up on ALR land could conceivably add restaurants and banquet halls that could and should instead be built on commercial land within urban areas, where they’re better served by transit and utilities.

Non-farm uses have been granted in the past but must under the current rules be approved by the ALC. Steves noted the Ocean Spray berry processing plant in Richmond was approved and built under the existing regulations.

Metro has also budgeted $20,000 to work with cities, the province and farmers to investigate potential reforms to property tax policies that could spur more actual farming of farmland.

Question of the Week

Subcompact cars are set Don’t get me wrong, I up to be basic transporam not saying it drives tation with emphasis or feels like an Aston placed on low cost and but it is great fun to great fuel economy. drive, handles our roads That said, you might think very well and all the they are all a bit boring tech options needed to and not very fun to drive keep your eyes on the or even very interesting road are available. The to look at. This is not the SE model I drove came For the price, case on the 2014 Ford with Bluetooth, satellite driving the Fiesta Fiesta: it has had a faceradio, navigation, power lift and features more locks, windows, and the feels a bit naughty, standard options than in My Ford Sync. as if maybe you the last model year.

As I live you can actually sports reader. The Fiesta downtown, anywhere feels different. You do get afford.

I go in my daily life I some plastic to be sure am always driving right Mike Zacharias but the dash has softer through the heart of the materials and some of city. When I headed out the plastic around here actually looks to the hockey rink, I was able to put all and feels good. For the price ($19,990 of my goalie equipment into the back, as tested), driving the Fiesta feels a no problem. Parking in cities is increasbit naughty, as if maybe you have ingly becoming a premium. Parking stolen a more expensive car than you a sub-compact like the Fiesta was a can actually afford. I would love to be breeze even without a backup camera! able to afford an Aston Martin as my As some people with larger vehicles daily commuter car but at this point in will know, parking at places like malls my life that is not an option. With the in and around the city the spaces are redesign, you do get the Fusion / Aston tight with not a lot of movement space front-end styling. for bigger vehicles. In addition, of Now some people might say, “Well it course, it does get worse in wintertime looks too much like an Aston.” Really? when the snow is piled high.

winter roads should not be a problem.

Of course, you would want to invest in a good set of winter tires.

Beyond the city limits, out on the highway, heading south it handled the road well, with enough get up and go for good passing power when needed.

It’s quite roomy for a small car. There’s room for three in the back seat as long as those passengers are not of a larger body type, if I may delicately put it that way. If you are of a larger body type, there is plenty of room in the trunk, if you desperately need a ride at that exact moment. (Just kidding.) But it does tell you the trunk is also roomy!

Verdict: No complaints. For a sub-compact, you get great tech options, great fuel economy, in a car that doesn’t feel like you are driving something as inexpensive as it is. It’s fun and zippy for driving around town or highway driving. If you need a small car as a

daily commuter or it’s your second car to accommodate a bigger SUV or truck, I would recommend taking one out for a test drive to see if it fits for you in what you are looking for in a car. The Fiesta right now for me is tops in the subcompact class.

1985 Corvette (“The Big Lebowski”): A 14-year-old

kid named Larry Sellers has likely stolen Jeffrey “The Dude” Lebowski’s (Jeff Bridges’) battered Ford Torino, possibly containing a large sum in ransom money. The Dude and his extremely anger management-challenged bowling buddy Walter Sobchak (John Goodman) head for little Larry’s house.

On the way in, they’re dismayed to find a red 1985 Corvette parked in front of the house and they figure the kid has already started to blow the money. When standard interrogation techniques prove fruitless, Walter takes a crowbar to the Corvette’s glass. The Corvette turns out to be the neighbour’s car.

1941 Lincoln Continental (“The Godfather”): You

could always count on the hot temper of Sonny Corleone. The Barzini Family certainly did. They also knew that when Carlo, the abusive lowlife husband of Sonny’s sister Connie, would hit her, Sonny would respond by unleashing the Hiroshima of beatings on Carlo. The most direct route from Sonny’s fist to the jawbone of Carlo would take him through the tollbooth at the Jones Beach Causeway on Long Island, where the Barzini’s hit men were waiting with Thompson sub-machine guns. The result was not pretty for either Sonny or the Lincoln.

Jefferson’s little brother and surfer/stoner Jeff Spiccolli (Sean Penn) take the car cruising one night in the San Fernando Valley and wreck it.

Spiccolli pops the classic line, “My old man is a TV repairman, and he has an awesome set of tools. I can fix it.” Ultimately, no repairs are undertaken. Rather, the damage is blamed on car thieves from a rival high school whom Ridgemont is playing in a big football game.

An incensed rhino-like Jefferson is seen later delivering paralytic revenge hits in the subsequent game.

Supplemental Application to Participate in National Energy Board Public Hearing for Trans Mountain Pipeline ULC The National Energy Board (NEB) began a public hearing into Trans Mountain Pipeline ULC’s (Trans Mountain’s) proposed Trans Mountain Expansion Project (Project) on 2 April 2014. Over 2,000 individuals and groups filed Applications to Participate in the hearing and the Board admitted 1,650 participants.

Description of the Project The Project would expand the existing Trans Mountain pipeline system located between Edmonton, Alberta (AB), and Burnaby, British Columbia (BC). It would include approximately 987 km of new pipeline, new and modified facilities, such as pump stations and tanks, and the reactivation of 193 km of existing pipeline. There would also be an expansion of the Westridge Marine Terminal.

New pipeline segments would be added between Edmonton and Hinton, AB; Hargreaves and Darfield, BC; and Black Pines and Burnaby, BC. Reactivation of existing pipeline segments would occur between Hinton, AB and Hargreaves, BC; and Darfield and Black Pines, BC. The Project application and all related filings can be found on the NEB’s website.

Supplemental opportunity to participate in the NEB Hearing Recently, Trans Mountain submitted a new preferred corridor for its delivery lines from Burnaby Terminal to the Westridge Marine Terminal, through Burnaby Mountain.

The original Application to Participate Notification posted for the Project did not contemplate this new preferred corridor through Burnaby Mountain.

Should those who are directly affected by, or have relevant information and expertise related to, the new preferred corridor through Burnaby Mountain wish to participate in the hearing, they must apply to do so.

The Project is being assessed under both the National Energy Board Act (NEB Act) and the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act, 2012 (CEAA 2012). Under the NEB Act, those who are directly affected will be allowed to participate and those with relevant information or expertise may be allowed to participate. In addition, if the Board is of the opinion that an applicant has relevant information or expertise about the environmental assessment under the CEAA 2012, then they will be allowed to participate.

While the Application to Participate form allows applicants to indicate their preferred method of participation, the Board will decide how best to hear from each approved participant on a case-by-case basis. Applicants must clearly describe their interest in relation to the List of Issues for the hearing (included in the Application to Participate form) and how they are directly affected by, or have relevant information related to, the new preferred corridor through Burnaby Mountain.

Existing participants need not apply again. Commenters may comment on, and intervenors may ask questions/file evidence/present argument on, any component of the Project, including the Burnaby Mountain section.

The Application to Participate is on the NEB’s website at: www.neb-one.gc.ca under Major Applications and Projects, select Trans Mountain Expansion This supplemental Application to Participate process will be open from 8 September 2014 to 24 September 2014. Individuals and groups applying to participate must provide enough information for the NEB to decide whether participant status should be granted. Applications will only be considered from individuals and groups who are directly affected by, or have relevant information and expertise related to, the new preferred corridor through Burnaby Mountain.

Contacts Information on NEB hearing processes and participant funding is available at www.neb-one.gc.ca/TransMountainExpansion. If you require additional information, the NEB has a dedicated Project-specific Process Advisor Team to provide assistance.

B.C. surplus won’t sweeten teacher offer

New from IKEA:

KÖRPORATE GRËED

Tom Fletcher Black Press

VICTORIA – The B.C. government has increased its projected surplus for the year to $266 million, up $87 million from the July budget estimate.

Finance Minister Mike de Jong said taxation and natural resource revenue are running ahead of projections, based on results of the first quarter of the fiscal year. That was offset by unexpected costs for flood control this spring and a forest fire season expected to Tom FleTcher/Black Press be one of the costliest on Finance Minister Mike de Jong said he’s disappointed with the slow job growth in B.C. record at $350 million.

PhOTO COUrTesY hell’s GaTe aIrTraM

I

was off the grid on vacation and enjoying one of B.C.’s pristine lakes when the news of the Mount Polley Mine reached me.

I had no access a computer or even a newspaper until my return to town. That’s when I finally grasped the scale of the disaster. It was a lot to process.

So much more than a “spill,” the scale of the accident was such that responsible parties have moved right past the emergency response phase and into a long term clean-up project.

The disaster called to mind another catastrophe: the 1913 slide at Hell’s Gate in the Fraser Canyon. Construction of the railway through the canyon triggered a massive rock slide into the Fraser River. An estimated 76,000 cubic meters of debris filled the narrow canyon, essentially damming the salmon runs and forcing the Mighty Fraser to squeeze through a narrow passageway between jagged rocks. The speed and strength of the current was such it was impossible for salmon to swim upstream back to their spawning grounds.

Immediate efforts to remove debris, dredge the canyon and even transport salmon over the debris in aboriginal baskets and dip nets weren’t

Catherine Ouellet-Martin enough to prevent the virtual destruction of the salmon runs and collapse of the fishery. Over the next years, salmon stocks were reduced so drastically that an estimated 20 per cent of the aboriginal population in the canyon above Hell’s Gate was lost to starvation and malnutrition. By 1921, the stocks were only at six per cent of their pre-1913 levels.

Surveying the Fraser sockeye in 1938, scientists from the Pacific Salmon Fisheries Commission realized the blockage conditions at Hell’s Gate needed to be overcome permanently if salmon was to ever recover.

This led to the building of fish ladders in the mid 1940s.

Also known as fish ways, these protected areas provide salmon with rest areas and a gentler route where the current is reduced but still present and strong enough to attract the fish upriver. It took more than 30 years for a solution to be found and more than a century for the salmon stock to somewhat recover.

HURRY!

Many variables make the Hell’s Gate and Mount Polley Mine disasters very different.

But I can’t help make the comparison. Like the accident at Mount Polley, the extent of the disaster at Hell’s Gate was such that no one was equipped or knew how to handle the mess at the time. It also appears that few realized immediately the long term impact of the slide and the danger to salmon.

But I take comfort in the eventual successes of remediation at Hell’s Gate. The slide challenged us to learn, find solutions, invent and conquer.

Thirty years of work was required to fix the damage.

But today, Hell’s Gate fish ways stand as a monument to man’s dedication and ingenuity.

I hope the Mount Polley disaster can trigger the same ingenuity and dedication.

Above all, I hope the possibility of such disaster is eliminated through better preventative measures, closer monitoring and higher accountability.

We escaped from the Gates of Hell once before. We may not always be able to pull off that stunt!

Catherine Ouellet-Martin is executive director of the Fraser River Discovery Centre.

NEW HOME DEVELOPMENT

Submitted photos

The Summit Residences by Domae Homes is perfectly situated in Chilliwack to take advantage of everything that the area has to offer, including tons of outdoor recreation opportunities. The spacious homes are available in a variety of open-plan layouts, allowing homeowners to personalize their home.

Ascending to the peak at The Summit Residences

By Kerry Vital

Domae Homes has long been known for high-quality homes that they themselves would want to live in. With the Summit Residences, that’s actually the case for partner Kevin Chester, who lives in the community himself and enjoys being able to say hello to the people who have purchased a home there.

“We build homes that we care about,” he says. “These are not just houses; they’re homes that people want to spend time in.”

Located in the Promontory Heights community in Chilliwack, The Summit

Residences are worthy of their name. With stunning views of the surrounding valley and mountains, the neighbourhood is a naturelovers dream. Thom Creek Park is nearby, as well as trails, golf courses, lakes and other recreation opportunities.

“These views are to-die-for,” Chester says.

There are controlled and registered building design guidelines in place to keep that view for the homeowners at the Summit Residences, which is especially important to those buyers who put a beautiful view on the top of their list of must-haves.

The 52 single-family homes on the 12-acre

site are available in a range of floorplans, including two new layouts that range in size from 2,116 to 2,324 square feet plus an unfinished basement.

Curb appeal is not in short supply at The Summit Residences, with their Craftsman architecture, distinctive exposed aggregate or stamped driveways and spacious outdoor decks, patios and landscaped yards. Each home has a double-car attached garage.

“No two homes are the same,” Chester says.

“We want buyers to get exactly what they want, so there is quite a variety of options.

We’ve done some really interesting things.”

Inside, spacious open-concept floorplans are perfect for entertaining, and homeowners can choose between two professionally selected colour schemes. Large windows maximize the view and let natural light fill the space. Hardwood laminate flooring

Annual space and water heating costs*

Natural Gas

Electricity

Before buying compare space & water heating costs When you’re house-hunting, choosing a home with natural gas for space and water heating can save you money.

Believe it at fortisbc.com/calculator. *These are approximate savings based on the difference between annual natural gas and electricity costs for space and water heating of a 2,300 square-foot house with average insulation and four occupants in the FortisBC Lower Mainland service area. Calculation compared high-efficiency natural gas furnace and large storage tank water heater with electric resistance heating (baseboards) and equivalent water heater and is based on FortisBC natural gas rates as of July 2014 ($11.054/GJ) and electricity rates in the service area identified (Tier 1 and 2: $0.079 and $0.118 per kWh). Actual savings may vary. Savings do not include potential rebates and/or incentives.
