Drive to recall Lee is scuttled Organizers say threshold too high

By Tereza Verenca

editorial@burnabynow.com

The recall campaign to oust Burnaby North MLA Richard Lee has ended because organizers couldn’t get enough signatures.

Burnaby teacher Jennifer Heighton told the NOW B.C. Citizens for Recall was unable to meet the threshold by the June 15 deadline - 40 per cent of registered voters within a 60 day period (about 16,500 signatures).

“That’s a huge number to get in 60 days, especially when you’re a grassroots group and there’s challenges like you can’t go into apartment buildings or condos,” she said. “A lot of times people weren’t home.”

Heighton added voter apathy was another road block.

“A lot of them said, ‘I don’t vote, so I’m not going to sign,’” she said. “This Continued on page 5

Firefighters’ talks stall on arbitrator Burnaby and firefighters’ union are in mediation in effort to get a new collective agreement

By Cayley Dobie

cdobie@burnabynow.com

It could be 2016 before Burnaby firefighters get a new contract, and that’s only if the city and union can agree on an arbitrator.

It’s been nearly four months since the City of Burnaby and the International Association of Firefighters Local 323, which represents 281 firefighters in Burnaby, met for mediation, and since then there has been minimal movement towards a new contract.

In fact, both parties are still trying to agree on an arbitrator.

“It’s kind of hard to decide when they keep throwing back the same name to us.

We’ve offered four and they offered three, and then we said no to the three and then they offered one of the three back again to us,” said Rob Lamoureux, president of Local 323.

Lamoureux said the union’s top choice is well-known arbitrator Vince Ready, who recently negotiated a deal for firefighters in Prince George, but because he’s so in-demand, it’s unlikely he would be available before the new year.

Lambert Chu, deputy city manager and liaison for the Burnaby Fire Department, is

hoping, however, to get the process moving as soon as possible.

“We’re trying to find an arbitrator that has a fairly open schedule to allow us to get a quick appointment so that the case can be heard,” Chu said.

At this point, however, Lamoureux said he and the firefighters are willing to wait for the right arbitrator, especially since they’ve been waiting more than three years for a new contract.

“We’ve waited so long we want to make sure we get the right arbitrator,” Lamoureux said. “I don’t want to take our chances and roll the dice with anybody. Another six months, it’s no big deal now, we’re already three years in.”

The NOW asked Chu if anyone on council or the mayor was trying to drag this pro-

cess out, considering how long it’s taken so far, but he was adamant that council and the mayor aren’t involved in the negotiations.

“This is done right at the staff level.This contract negotiation is carried out through the city manager’s office and a representative from the fire union, and we basically keep our council informed of the progress, but the council isn’t involved in any negotiation,” Chu said.

Lamoureux doesn’t buy that.

“I would disagree. I can’t believe that,” he said. “I can’t believe that this is being … controlled by the city manager’s office.

“You look at common sense and you look at what’s gone on in the whole region.We’re at 22 locals – two arbitrated and 20 Continued on page 4

Newsnow CITY SAYS:

Drinking water is improving E. Coli detected in one sample in 2014; coliform found in three

By Janaya Fuller-Evans

jfuller-evans@burnabynow.com

The city’s drinking water is getting better every year, according to the drinking water quality report for 2014, despite one sample last year that showed the presence of E. coli bacteria.

The water came from a sampling kiosk in the 8300 block of Willard Avenue on Aug. 12, according to the report.

“In response, staff immediately implemented pre-established protocols for an E. Coli event,” the report stated. “Fraser Health Authority was notified regarding the sample result.The results of all the drinking water samples taken from the area were reviewed and noted to be in compliance.The watermains in the immediate area of 8300 block Willard Street were flushed and

re-sampled.The supplement samples were found to be in compliance with B.C. drinking water protection regulations. Based on the follow-up procedures undertaken and the resultant water quality findings, FHA staff were satisfied with the actions taken and did not require any additional action.”

Three other samples taken in the city were found to contain total coliform bacteria, the report stated.

E. coli indicates fecal contamination by animals or humans, and common sources of coliform include human and animal feces, though they can also occur naturally in water, soil and vegetation, according to the Canadian drinking water quality guideline. It can indicate the regrowth of bacteria and intrusion of untreated water into a drinking

water system.

The acceptable amount of total coliforms or Escherichia coli is none detectable per 100 millilitres, according to the guideline. However, B.C.’s water quality standards are more specific and state that, when more than one sample is taken in a 30day period, at least 90 per cent of those samples must have no detectable total coliform bacteria per 100 mil-

COUGAR ALERT

Students kept inside

By Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

Students at Forest Grove Elementary stayed inside during recess and lunch Monday after the second reported cougar sighting near the school in as many months.

The big cat was apparently sighted near the bottom of Ash Grove Sunday morning, and an email to parents Monday informed them their kids would be kept inside during the school day.

Parents were also asked to review tips on what to do in case of an encounter with a cougar.

The school sent out a similar notice late last month when a parent reported seeing a cougar crossing the Trans Moun-

tain Trail a short distance from where the trail intersects with Underhill Avenue.

Conservation officer James Kelly, however, told the NOW his office hasn’t actually received any firsthand calls about cougar sightings in the neighbourhood.

“We had one come in that was third-hand from that area,” he said.

Kelly said a significant majority of reported cougar sightings turn out to be sightings of other animals – most commonly bobcats, but also coyotes, raccoons and even house cats.

Without speaking to the person who actually saw the animal, he said it’s hard for officers to determine if it was a cougar, and the service is less likely to take

action.

“Just report it to us,” he said, “so we can do a proper follow up and find out what type of animal this is and make sure if the public needs to be given a head’s up or a school needs to be given a head’s up, we can do that immediately.”

Both of the Forest Grove notices about cougars urged community members who think they’ve spotted a cougar to report it to the conservation service before calling the school.

lilitres, and no sample can have more than 10 total coliform bacteria per 100 millilitres.

Burnaby’s samples didn’t exceed B.C. regulations limits in regards to coliform.

The city’s director of engineering, Leon Gous, did not respond to the NOW’s requests for more information regarding E. coli found in the one sample.

In all, 3,032 drinking wa-

ter samples were used for bacteriological analysis, with 1,624 of these samples obtained by city staff from 63 locations throughout the city’s waterworks system, according to the report, and 1,408 samples collected by Metro Vancouver staff from 15 locations along its mains.

“The City of Burnaby, in partnership with Metro Vancouver, consistently deliver clean, safe and estheti-

cally pleasing drinking water to the residents, businesses and visitors in Burnaby,” the report stated. “In 2014, the physical, chemical and bacteriological characteristics of the water continues to be of high quality and in compliance with applicable regulations and guidelines.”

Controversial Metrotown development goes to hearing

By Janaya Fuller-Evans

jfuller-evans@burnabynow.com

A rezoning application to replace two low-rise rental apartment buildings with highrise condo towers atop commercial space is going to public hearing nextTuesday.

The Metrotown properties in question, at 6380 and 6420 Silver Ave., were the site of a rally last week where members of the Burnaby branch of ACORN (Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now) Canada gathered to demand the city do more to protect low-cost rental apartments in the area.

“We have lots of members who live in rental apartments in Burnaby and a lot of them, like the ones one Silver Street are relatively inexpensive,” ACORN

spokesperson and Burnaby resident Murray Martin told the NOW regarding the rally. “We’re worried that none of our members are going to be able to afford these new places.They will be displaced.With the vacancy rate so low, they will probably be forced out of the city.”

The apartment buildings were built in the early ’60s, according to a staff report, and contain a total of 109 units.

The applicant, Belford Properties, is putting forward a development plan that includes a 41-storey residential tower atop a 6.5-storey podium with commercial, institutional and retail space, according to the report, and a 26-storey residential tower atop three-story townhouses.

The proposed development would include 479 apartment units in total, the report stated, adding that the density bonus from the project is estimated at $15.88 million and would go to the MetrotownTown Centre account for amenities including a Metrotown performance and events centre.

The public hearing includes one other item – a rezoning application from Telus for a temporary Cell on Wheels installation to replace telecommunications antennas that are currently located at the former Telus industrial complex.

The public hearing takes place in council chambers on Tuesday, June 23 at 7 p.m.

Written submissions must be received at the city clerk’s office by 4:45 p.m. on the day of the hearing.

Multimillion-dollar project gets go-ahead

Burnaby council has passed a motion authorizing $8.9 million be made available to replace the city’s licence and permit system.

The city is replacing its current permit plan system with a much more extensive licences, inspections and permits system.

The funding approved

at Monday night’s meeting comes from the city’s capital works, machinery and equipment reserve fund. It’s meant to cover the system purchase and first phase of implementation.

The current system is more than 18 years old, according to a city staff report, and the hardware and soft-

ware is no longer supported by the vendors.

The cost for the first phase of the project was estimated to cover software licences, hardware, contingency, professional services and additional staff to implement the new system.

– Janaya Fuller-Evans

Burnaby firefighters still working without contract Continued from page 1 negotiated – nothing has changed.We’re not going to get a penny more, and we’re not going to take a penny less.We’ve offered to just sign a four-year deal on terms and wages and just continue talking for the next four years, and the city turned us down.”

The terms and wages deal offered would see a 2.5 per cent wage increase

each year for four years and would ultimately give the city and union more time to bargain for a new deal.

In the meantime, firefighters in Burnaby continue to work without a contract.

Lamoureux has asked Chu to put forward some additional choices for arbitrators this week. If they can find someone they both want, then the process can

move forward, something Chu is optimistic will happen sooner rather than later.

“As soon as we can get an arbitrator confirmed, then we’ll have a more definitive idea of the schedule he or she may be available,” Chu said.

The NOW made repeated attempts to speak with Mayor Derek Corrigan on this issue but did not hear back.

City now Recall campaign fails to meet threshold Continued from page 1 is something that really has to be dealt with. Our apathy out there is still running strong. … If we could solve the apathy problem, if we could get 100 per cent of the population to care about what our politicians are doing, I think 40 per cent wouldn’t be too high.”

The Coquitlam resident also argued having a lower threshold, perhaps one that extends 90 days, could have helped with the end result.

The total number of people who signed on the dotted line to remove Lee from office, meanwhile, won’t be

disclosed for “strategic purposes” and to avoid tipping off the Liberal camp.

If the grassroots group had garnered enough support, Elections B.C. would have had 42 days to verify the signatures, ensuring those who signed were registered voters in the riding during the last provincial election. If successful, the campaign would have triggered a byelection and Lee would have been entitled to run for the same seat he’s held since 2001.

Issues that sparked the recall, Heighton said, included the province’s high rates

We managed to raise awareness of what an MLA is supposed to do. of child poverty, education funding and the Kinder Morgan pipeline expansion project.The biggest issue people identified with, however, was the lack of funding for Burnaby Hospital.

“That’s the one thing they were most frustrated about

when we talked to them at the door and at the tables.

They would tell us their stories and some of them are just heartbreaking,” she added.

Overall, there were 90 registered canvassers under the B.C. Citizens Recall banner, which had a budget of less than $1,000 to cover the cost of printing materials.

“If someone were to try another recall, they would need hundreds, literally hundreds of canvassers.

There were several areas of the riding we weren’t able to cover,” noted Heighton.

Even though the target wasn’t met, the local teacher said she’s pleased to have taken part in the democratic process, and that for her personally, success can be measured in other ways.

“We managed to raise awareness of what an MLA is supposed to do and hold him accountable.The (recall process) has legislation to how it’s run, so it actually does have the power to create change.”

Opinion now OUR VIEW

Without action, this is lip service The truth will set you free. Unfortunately, as poetic as that expression is, it is useless without understanding and action.

When the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada started its journey six years ago, many thought it was just another example of government pretense.

Send out three commissioners to hear from thousands of survivors of residential schools, send out press releases and, well, you get the

picture. It sounds good, but would it be more than lip service?

We might lean towards the cynical view on this commission if it hadn’t been for a brave and correct statement in its recent report.

The commission said the residential school system in Canada amounted to a “cultural genocide.”

Canada had previously managed to keep the term cultural genocide out of two major United Nations doc-

uments. But here it is, in a definitive report.

The commission defined it as “the destruction of those structures and practices that allow the group to continue as a group.” It includes disrupting families “to prevent the transmission of cultural values and identity from one generation to the next.” Frankly, there are few better examples than how the government systematically tried to destroy aboriginal culture and so-

Inaction will not lead to reconciliation. ciety than in Canada (although we are certainly not alone in such feats).

The harm done to generations of First Nations people in Canada can never be adequately catalogued, but the commission has, we be-

lieve, done a good job.

But it will mean little if the commission’s recommendations are not taken seriously and addressed by all levels of government.

Many of the recommendations seem impossible given the current federal government’s lack of interest in even correcting current injustices many First Nations people are living with today. Inadequate health care, sanitation and even a lack of fresh water is still the ‘truth’

for some aboriginal people in Canada. Not to mention the lack of co-ordinated concern when First Nations’ women are being targetted and murdered.

The commission’s straight talk will mean little if its most basic recommendations are not acted upon. Inaction will not lead to reconciliation but will lead to another generation’s loss for the potential to correct past injustices and build allies for the future.

MY VIEW KEITH BALDREY

Put victory dance on hold Waiting for the liquefied natural gas industry to finally set up shop in B.C. has been like watching an excruciatingly slowly played football game where the score has remained 0-0 since the opening kickoff.

But it now appears one of the largest players may be about to finally cross the goal line and score, thus setting in motion what could end up to be several “touchdowns” by LNG companies in this province.

Or will it?

A consortium led by the Malaysian governmentowned energy giant Petronas has made what it calls a “conditional” final investment decision to build an $11.4-billion LNG terminal near Prince Rupert.

One of the conditions (approval by the B.C. legislature) is a foregone conclusion.

The other – federal environmental approval – has so far proven to be elusive.

The project has been in the review process for more than two years now, and there is no end in sight.

The Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency, which is conducting the review, stood down earlier this month and told Pacific NorthWest LNG to provide more details about the project’s potential impact on local salmon habitat.

Where things get a bit hazy about this “condition” is the approaching federal election campaign. If there is no decision handed down by the CEAA before the

campaign begins in September, the next government may be charged with signing off on approval.

If the ruling Stephen Harper Conservatives win the election, the chances of the project getting federal approval will presumably be quite good. But what might happen if the federal Liberals or the federal NDP win power, or form a coalition government to block the Conservatives?

And then we come to something governments at both levels and the industry itself have much less control over: the support of First Nations for this industry and this particular project.

The Lax Kw’alaam First Nations, which claims the land where Pacific NorthWest LNG hopes to locate its terminal, has already turned down a $1.15-billion benefit package from the consortium in exchange for its support for the project.

Since then, talks have quietly been taking place with the First Nations band and it may very well revisit its initial decision.We’ll see.

But for now, for all the high-fiving and backslapping the B.C. government is doing over this “conditional” investment decision, the fact remains that Petronas and its partners have still not carried the ball over the goal line. Until they do, any end zone celebration dance should remain on hold.

The smell of gas noticed over the South Slope of Burnaby last week was likely the result of work on a new cranberry farm in the Big Bend area.

The sulphur-like odours were noticeable from Byrne Road to Boundary, likely sparked by a change in the weather, said Don Miller, a senior officer in the Greater Vancouver Regional District air quality control department.

Clark carrying on Campbell’s legacy

Is Harper getting blamed unfairly?

Dear Editor Keith Baldrey is right to question whether the Liberal government, under Christy Clark has gone rogue, but I think it started before her, with Gordon Campbell, who started down this path, by marching to the orders of Stephen Harper, and as we now know he got his good-Conservative reward, by being appointed as High Commissioner to the UK. Now Christy Clark has taken it to a whole new level by following Stephen Harper’s penchant for lying, covering up and deceiving, and now she is engaging government paid employees into destroying public documents, by deleting them.

The public has every right to see and read these documents and e-mails, yet Christy defies the Right to Now Christy Information Clark has taken Commissioner. I think it to a whole new it’s time the RCMP needs level. to start an investigation into this issue, because any civil servant destroying public records should be charged with a criminal offence. If civil servants are threatened with prison, we’ll see just how loyal they will remain to Christy and her crooked government.

Christy seems to think she is immune from being prosecuted, which may be why her government was so eager to sign a 20-year contract with the RCMP, to provide policing services to the province, rather than B.C. having its own provincial police service, and let’s not forget the arm-twisting of municipalities, who were thinking the RCMP was too expensive, and were contemplating starting their own municipal police services.

Wedding vow renewal was a beautiful affair Dear Editor I was dismayed and disappointed to read your reporter’s negative story about the Sorbos, who now are together at Normanna Rest Home.

She spoke with Arne, who is in his 89th year, and Iris, who at 80 years has dementia.

Not one word of the hugh efforts and time the Normanna staff took to decorate and beautifully prepare for their wedding renewal vows.

Again, not one word of the beautiful theraputic garden with replicas of a Norwegian church, stabbur (storehouse) and ship plus trees and flowers.

This garden is as close as the Sorbos could get to Norway, their roots. Not one word about many of the other residents who were wheeled in to enjoy an afternoon of entertainment. Did she not notice their faces? And lastly, not one word about Pastor Krushel, who came from Coquitlam to say a few words.

Iris and Arne will never be really happy anywhere but at home, and this is not possible.

So for both of them the second best place is definitely Normanna Rest Home. Their marriage renewal vows were just wonderful.

Ziggy Eckardt It appears that Mr. Harpers remark “we simply have to find a way to create lower carbonemitting sources of energy” was taken out of context. It is, however, the sort of thing readers here expect and like to see... Otherwise, the sky is falling in Burnaby and is on an unavoidable collision course with the rising sea levels.

Same old.

At the meeting in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, on the other hand, the other 6 of the G7 leaders used only 30 minutes of their precious time to blame that Harper fellow for the planet’s choice of energy! After all, Canada is responsible for 2% of all global carbon emissions and in there, somewhere, the oil sands count for almost 3%. The nerve of the guy, refusing to heel! Especially because he knows that another pipeline through Burnaby is an enormous thorn in the side of Mayor Corrigan and it may also get more NDP MPs elected. If tunneling underneath Burnaby Mountain is ruled out, it will inconvenience 4 home owners as well!...

So, after those 30 all important minutes what did the G7 waste the taxpayers money on this time? ISIS, Ukraine, Russia, Boka Haran, Iran, monetary matters? Perhaps even North Korea?

One of the other aspiring Canadian leaders would have at least insisted that they all pay their baby sitters $15.an hour from now on. That would have fixed global poverty. The other one would have made all problems disappear in a cloud of marijuana smoke.

Reader responds to Horgan on housing MikeB If people cant afford to live in Burnaby then they should look at purchasing a house in Maple Ridge, Surrey or Langley where the housing costs are a lot cheaper. Its no different than our parents who settled in Burnaby when they would rather have purchased in Vancouver but couldn’t because of price. At the time Burnaby did not have the transit, amenities/services or conveniences of Vancouver but that is what you do if you cant afford to live in a city. Not whine for prices to come down. Horgan should know better as he is not that stupid......I think.

Another tower? Highrise planned for Metrotown New development would replace rental apartments Janaya Fuller-Evans

jfuller-evans@burnabynow.com

Another condo highrise is in the works in the Metrotown area on a four-lot site that is currently home to low-rise rental apartment buildings.

A recent city staff report indicated that the city is working with Amacon Development on a development plan to replace the older buildings at 6750 Dunblane Ave., 5025 Imperial St., and 6729 and 6789 Marlborough Ave. with a high-rise apartment tower atop street-oriented townhomes.

The apartment buildings were all built in the ’50s and ’60s.The Dunblane Ave-

nue property is currently vacant due to fire damage, according to the report, and the Imperial Street building is in fair condition, as is the building at 6789 Marlborough Ave. But the building at 6729 Marlborough Ave. is in poor condition.

Overall, there are 47 rental units on the four properties.

The surrounding area to the north, east and west primarily consists of low-rise apartment buildings, with one single-family home to the north.There is a newer low-rise multi-family development to the south, as well as older single-family homes, according to the report.

However, there are oth-

er highrise developments in the works in the area, including The Met 1 and 2, The Park and Midori Residences, the report added.

The lot parcel is just down the street from another major highrise project under construction, put forward by Polygon Development, which also replaced four older low-rise rental apartment buildings.

That development, which was the subject of a recent Burnaby NOW story, is at 6579 and 6611 Marlborough Ave., and 6592 and 6650 Dunblane Ave. City staff are working with Amacon on a development plan to be sent to a public hearing at a later date.

“We’re blessed in the Lower Mainland with the best quality drinking water anywhere in the world and we continue to be the envy of other nations and of other cities, and we also meet the highest standards for our drinking water,” he said.

“I was looking at the report, your worship, and it seems like a lot of our water is used in toilet flushing and clothes washing and faucets and showers, and just one per cent of our usage of water is for consumption,” she said. “I would like to encourage people to be very well aware of our water consumption, and that we have enough sufficient drinking water throughout the year.”

Mayor Derek Corrigan agreed it’s important not to waste drinking water during the summer.

“I guess the only issue for us is being smart about how we use our water as we get into the summer months and making sure we’re not wasting water,” he said. “It is important to remember

Mermaids come to life on gallery walls Mermaids are real – and you can find the photographic proof on the walls of the Arts Council of New Westminster Gallery.

Mermaids Are Real: A Photo Exhibit starts on Tuesday, June 23, with an official opening reception on Sunday, June 28.

The exhibition features a series of photographs of mermaids at play in the water and basking in the sunshine – the brainchild of New Westminster writerartist-harpist Lori Pappajohn.

Once you dive down, all is calm and beautiful beyond words

The project is four years in the making. Pappajohn began designing her colourful mermaid tails years ago, for herself and her fellow mermaid, Burnaby’s Annette Johnston – who’s also a flamenco, belly and tango dancer, as well as a massage therapist.

Both became fascinated with the mythical creatures and decided to use the human body as an art form to

explore their mystery and beauty.

The two took their mermaid tails all the way to Maui, documenting their mermaid adventures above and below the water.

“The vision of a mermaid under the sea and on the shore is pure poetry – and that’s what we want to share with others,” Pappajohn said in a press release. “We took close to a dozen tails with us, ranging in colour from bright pink to moss green and sky blue.”

In an email, Pappajohn notes that they encountered some extra excitement “mermaiding” in the open ocean.

“There were some rough seas, strong currents and high winds just to add to the thrill!” she wrote. “But once you dive down, all is calm and beautiful beyond words. And the dolphins were absolutely amused to see mermaids.”

The pair caught the eye of several high-profile Hawaiian photographers, including Bo Pardau, Doug Perrin, Benja Iglesis and Steven Broschat.

Some of the resulting photographs capture the mermaids swimming with dolphins.

“The rich colours of the tails are beautifully framed

Mythical exploration: Annette Johnston of Burnaby is one of two mermaids featured in Mermaids Are Real: A Photo Exhibit, which opens next week at the Arts Council of New Westminster gallery. PHOTO CONTRIBUTED

by the deep blues and delicate turquoises of the Hawaiian sea,” Pappajohn said in the release. “Add a dolphin or a turtle and you have pure magic.”

The Mermaids Are Real exhibition also includes videos documented in Hawaii.

Viewers can also read Pappajohn’s children’s book,The Pink Mermaid and Other Tails, and children are invited in on weekends between 2 and 3 p.m. to have their photo taken with a mermaid.

The Arts Council of New

Westminster Gallery is in Centennial Lodge, Queen’s Park. It’s open Tuesday to Sunday, 1 to 5 p.m.

The opening reception on Sunday, June 28 runs from 2 to 4 p.m. It includes a mini-concert featuring music and stories about mer-

maids. Pappajohn will play the Celtic harp while Alan Woodland, the former head librarian for New Westminster, does the reading.

How?

inder Morgan has applied to the Na!onal Energy Board to twin the Trans Mountain pipeline and expand the Burnaby Mountain tank farm and the Westridge Marine Terminal. Opposi!on to the project has sparked days of protest on Burnaby Mountain, charges that the NEB process is “rigged” and debate on the pros and cons (but mostly cons) of the plan. Jennifer Moreau, the BurnabyNOW reporter who has tracked the story from Day 1, has prepared this primer for readers on the Did you know? proposed expansion, and the latest evidence Burnaby intervenors Trans Mountain have Gled for the NEB hearing. pipeline generates approximately $300 million in revenue for Kinder PROJECT OVERVIEW: Morgan. With expansion, that would increase to Westridge, bringing the Current system: total to three. close to $1 billion.

Trans Mountain system includes 1,150 kilometres of pipeline from Alberta to Burnaby, the Burnaby Mountain tank farm and the Westridge Marine Terminal.

The pipeline ships up to 300,000 barrels of oil per day and has been transporting diluted bitumen since the 1980s.

The pipeline runs oil to the Burnaby Mountain tank farm, a holding facility, that’s connected to the Westridge Marine Terminal, where tankers fill up with crude.

Expanded system: Pipeline shipping volume will increase from 300,000 barrels per day to 890,000.

Tank farm will have 14 new tanks (includes one replacement tank), increasing storage capacity from 1.6 million barrels of oil to 5.6 million.

There will be two new pipelines from the tank farm to

The current sole loading berth at Westridge, now slated for demolition, will be replaced with three new berths.

Tanker traffic will increase from an average of five tankers per month to 34. (Tankers will be double-hulled Aframax, a medium-sized vessel that can carry, on average, 750,000 barrels of oil.)

The existing Trans Mountain pipeline generates an annual $7 million in property taxes for Burnaby, but that’s expected to rise to $13 million, if the expansion is approved.

The associated workforce in Burnaby would peak at about 600 jobs. As for permanent post-construction jobs, the company estimates there will be 50 in B.C., and 30 to 35 of those will be in Burnaby at the Westridge Marine Terminal.

Nine companies, including Suncor, Cenovus and Imperial Oil, support the expansion and have signed up for 50-year contracts with Kinder Morgan.

The estimated cost of expansion is $5.4 billion.

THE TIMELINE: Dec. 16, 2013: Kinder Morgan filed application with NEB to expand the Trans Mountain pipeline system.

Jan. 16, 2015: Second round of intervenor information requests to Trans Mountain filed.

May 27, 2015: Deadline for intervenors to file written evidence in NEB hearing.

Late August, 2015: Kinder Morgan presents its summary argument to the NEB in Calgary.

September, 2015: NEB comes to Burnaby to hear final summary arguments from intervenors.

Oct. 19, 2015: Federal election.

Jan. 25, 2016: National Energy Board delivers its report to the Minister of Natural Resources, recommending for or against the pipeline. The NEB used to approve or deny applications for major oil projects; now elected cabinet members have the final say.

THE ROUTE: Kinder Morgan is now proposing a pipeline route through Burnaby Mountain.

The red line, on map at left, is the existing Trans Mountain pipeline, and the pink line shows the now preferred route for the proposed new line. The blue line is the alternate route, or second choice, for the expansion project.

Tanker tra"c will increase from an average of Hve tankers per month to 34. The current sole loading berth at Westridge, now slated for demoli!on, will be replaced with three new berths.

THE PIPELINE PRIMER

WHAT OPPONENTS SAY:

Here are some of the highlights from evidence filed by local intervenors in the National Energy Board hearing process, which is more than halfway complete.

Top, Burnaby resident Mary Hatch filed an affidavit for the NEB hearing, chronicling how her home was sprayed with oil in the 2007 pipeline rupture.

At right more than 100 people were arrested on Burnaby Mountain while protesting Kinder Morgan’s survey work last fall.

Below, First Nations representatives on Burnaby Mountain, during one of the anti-pipeline protests. The Tsleil-Waututh Nation, which has traditional territory in Burnaby, is opposed to the project.

WHAT KINDER ER MORGAN SAYS: “We welcome the filings submitted by many intervenors over the past several weeks. The City of Burnaby was among those filing evidence. Their information and reports will become a part of the National Energy Board’s rigorous review process. The submission of evidence is an expected part of the regulatory process, as the deadline for intervenors’ final evidence was May 27. Trans Mountain will be responding to these reports and others in more detail when we file our reply evidence in August. We are committed to a transparent and full process as defined by the NEB, but it isn’t the only way we’re having conversations about the pipeline and the project. For 60 years, petroleum products have been safely shipped through our pipeline and the Burrard Inlet. If approved, the $5.4 billion project would create 4,500 construction jobs at peak employment, and 3,000 direct, indirect and induced jobs per year of operations.”

Burnaby Residents Opposing Kinder Morgan Expansion: BROKE commissioned a group of experts, including SFU professor Tim Takaro, to author a report on human health impacts. The report concluded that it’s impossible to accurately assess risks related to the th expansion without a third-part third-party review human-h and a human-health assessment for Metro Vancouve the most Vancouver, heavily populated a area affected by the pipeline. The aut authors called fo climate for c change to be r recognized as a serious public health c concern.

T report The a raised also co concerns ab about pot potential expo exposure to c toxic chemicals for Burnaby and North resid Shore residents.

BROKE filed a second seismi hazards, report on seismic noting Canada does not have performance standards fo for seismic pipelines but Kinder Mo design of pipelines, Morgan is using national building code standards, which would ensure a 98 per cent chance of withstanding structural damage over a 50year period of typical quakes.

BROKE also Rled an a#davit from Mary Hatch, a long-!me Burnaby resident whose home was sprayed with crude in the July 24, 2007 spill.

“That day, I was eating lunch at my kitchen table, when the doorbell rang. It was a firefighter who told me to evacuate my home immediately. His tone was urgent. After gathering some belongings, I left my home via the sundeck. I noticed oil everywhere. Oil was on the steps, the railing, the walkway and the gate. My car was covered in oil. … I had lived on Inlet Drive for 31 years but was unaware there was a pipeline under it.”

When Hatch returned four days later, her home was filled with fumes and the soil was contaminated. Cleanup took about two years.

SPILL HISTORY BY THE NUMBERS: 82 – number of spills since 1961 along the Trans Mountain system.

40,780 – total volume measured in barrels, of spills since 1961, in cases where the volume was known.

2005 – year when Kinder Morgan bought the Trans Mountain pipeline.

1,459 barrels – equivalent to 234,000 litres, total volume spilled in the 2007 Burnaby rupture on Inlet Drive.

50 – number of homes impacted by the 2007 Burnaby spill (11, number of homes severely impacted) 1,200 – number of meters of shoreline affected after oil seeped into storm drains and down to Burrard Inlet.

“It was a traumatic time for me and my family, and I believe it was for our neighbours as well,” she said.

Unifor, union represen!ng Burnaby’s Chevron reRnery workers: The union is against the pipeline expansion, saying it could threaten to close the Chevron refinery, and an oil spill could threaten the Fraser River fishery. The expansion will actually mean less oil is available for companies like Chevron that do not have long-term contracts with Kinder Morgan. Oil coming through the proposed twin line is mostly slated for foreign markets, like the U.S. and China.

Fraser Health/Vancouver Coastal Health. These two health authori!es highlighted the following observa!ons a"er reviewing Kinder Morgan’s pipeline applica!on: The need to model a large oil spill event in the Inlet The need to use a risk analysis approach that includes all players involved in a possible spill. The analysis would assess the adequacy of spill prevention, response and mitigation.

The need for monitoring chemical substances released following a large oil spill to track their dispersion in real time.

Health authorities need this information to make decisions about things like evacuations or air quality advisories, but it’s not clear which agency, if any, has this monitoring capacity.

The need to include local health authorities in spill notification protocols.

The need for baseline data on human activities and habitat to facilitate remediation decisions. It’s difficult to know when the air, water and soil are back to normal as there’s no baseline data.

The City of Burnaby Rled nine pages of postcard comments from Burnaby residents, and only a handful were in support of the project: We support pipelines in general but pipelines should be built for the benefits of Canada and Canadian(s). – David Bo It is dangerous to our health and the environment and completely unnecessary. – Linda Champion (The) pipeline expansion threatens everything that makes Vancouver unique: our water – streams, oceans, creeks – in order to line the pockets of faceless shareholders with no connection to nature or the environment. – S. Johnson I strongly oppose this project until Kinder Morgan can show that it has cleaned up its act in other jurisdictions. – Cindy Hanna

Arts now Gallery offers hands-on programs Looking to explore some new artistic horizons?

Burnaby Art Gallery can help. Alongside a raft of programs and camps for kids, the gallery also offers some hands-on experiences for adults.

Coming up this Sunday, June 21, the gallery offers a Printmaking Open Studio for artists aged 16 and

up. It’s best suited to those who have some prior printmaking experience – artists will have use of the gallery press, plus inking and carving tools. It runs from noon to 3 p.m. on Sunday, June 21 and costs $24.

Artists aged 16 and up may also want to make room in their summer calendar for a weekend inten-

sive course called Landscape Ventures.

Participants will spend Saturday and Sunday, July 11 and 12, heading down to Deer Lake to create art “en plein air,” creating a monotype, turning drawings into stylized screen prints and exploring mixed media with acrylic paints.

The course is set to be

taught by Katharine Dickinson, and it’s inspired by three B.C. landscape artists, Sybil Andrews, Gordon Smith and Toni Onley. Lunch and supplies are included and all levels are welcome.

Check out the summer brochure at www.burnaby artgallery.ca for the details of these and other offerings.

“By accessing world markets for Canadian oil, we’ll enjoy increased tax dollars and years of employment.”

- Deborah Cahill, President, Electrical Contractors Association of B.C.

Coastal access for Canadian oil means an increase of at least $5 per barrel. By getting full value for our oil, everyone will benefit. Workers will gain from the $5.4 billion project. Oil producers will earn more revenue for their product. And Government will collect more tax revenue from oil producers to spend on programs such as health care, education and other services that benefit all British Columbians.

Plus, we can invest in new training programs and create new jobs for our youth.

Communitynow Burnaby South students tops in design contest Cornelia Naylor

CLASS ACT

cnaylor@burnabynow.com

Their design of a chair for college dorms has earned Burnaby South students in the school district’s new Applied International Design course props in a national competition.

Grade 10 students Anthony Yuen and Pearl Perara were runners up in the 20th Annual Sears DX Canadian High School Design Competition in the junior industrial design category, while Amanda Cheung and Clarissa Martins earned honourable mention honours.

Colin Pinchin,Tyler Cao and Vincious Carlos were honourable mentions in the senior category.

The challenge was to design a portable chair for college student living in a small, shared living space.

Open to all high school students studying in Canada, the aim of the annual competition is to promote the study and awareness of different design disciplines.

For more information, visit www.dx.org.

BIG ART AT AUBREY A giant mural now adorns four exterior walls at Aubrey Elementary School.

Unveiled this month, the enormous artwork was a collaborative effort by Aubrey students, staff, families and artist Todd Polich.

The mural is more than 200 feet long and captures themes (community, multiculturalism and the environment) that students said were important to them in discussions and preliminary art sessions with Polich.

Nearly 400 students helped paint the work, which features West Coast species, like eagles, salmon and bears, interacting along a transition from ocean to river to land.

To capture community, it features a First Nations elder, mother and child as well as multicultural faces and active and imaginative children.

“I love it,” Polich said.

“It’s great.”

The mural, at 1075 Stratford Ave., was unveiled earlier this month.

40th anniversary this month.

The Burnaby French Language Preschool (BFLP), now housed in a portable on the Marlborough Elementary School grounds, was founded in 1975 by five couples wanting French classes for their kids. One member of the group put up a poster at a neighbourhood library calling for others interested in a French immersion preschool.The rest, as they say, is history.

The school started off in a classroom at Suncrest Elementary, moved to Morley Elementary after parents raised $20,000 to buy a portable and then settled in its current location at Marlborough.

Parent participation is still key at the preschool, where French is the spoken by the teachers while kids communicate in English and advance to French as they feel comfortable.

For more info, visit bflp. org or call 604-432-1323.

Winning design: This chair design earned two Burnaby South students second place in a national design contest. PHOTO SUBMITTED

Help prevent break-ins Cayley Dobie

cdobie@burnabynow.com

Summer is right around the corner, and while for most people that means more time outside enjoying the warmer weather, for criminals it’s the ideal time for break-ins.

That’s according to the Burnaby RCMP, who are once again warning residents to take extra care protecting their property and valuables during the summer.

“As we enter the summer months, we often see a rise in residential break-ins because people are tempted to keep their windows, doors and garages open,” Sgt. Stephane Brossard, leader of the detachment’s Strike Force unit, said in a media

release.

Strike Force is a dedicated unit that focuses on identifying the persons responsible for robberies and break and enters.

According to Burnaby RCMP, the highest percentage of break-ins happens in the summer when people are more likely to leave doors and windows open and unlocked.To reduce the likelihood of theft this summer, Brossard recommends the following five tips: 1. Increase deterrents: use an alarm system, a motion detector or surveillance camera.

2. Decrease opportunity: when you’re away, have your mail and/or newspapers picked up. Don’t post travel plans on social media.

Lock and/or put away any

valuables, including bicycles, and leave ladders secured.

3. Secure access points: close and lock windows and doors, especially when you’re away. Ensure the garage is locked even when you’re in the backyard. Lock and secure sheds.

4. Keys: never hide a key under a door mat.

5. Answer your door or make a noise:Thieves often knock on a door or ring a doorbell to target homes they believe are unattended.

If you are concerned about answering the door, turn on some music or the TV, ask them what they want, or if it’s in the evening, turn on the outside light.

Burnaby RCMP is also reminding the public to report any suspicious people or activity at 604-294-7922.

Communitynow Food scraps in the garbage? You may pay for that Janaya Fuller-Evans

jfuller-evans@burnabynow.com

Not separating your garbage could soon cost you.

As of July 1, residents and businesses in Burnaby can be fined if more than 25 per cent of their garbage is made up of visible food waste.

Offenders will receive a 50 per cent surcharge, added to the cost of disposal of their trash, according to Metro Vancouver’s new guidelines.

The new regional food scrap ban has been phased in since the beginning of the year, and includes commercial buildings such as restaurants and grocery stores, institutional and industrial buildings such as schools, as well as houses, apartments

and other residential buildings.

According to the City of Burnaby, about 50 per cent of a typical residential household’s garbage is food scraps and waste.

The city’s food scrap collection program began at single and two-family homes in 2010. Burnaby began a food scraps pilot project for city schools in 2011, which was expanded into a full-scale collection program at all schools in 2013.

The city’s green organic waste bins are intended for all types of food and food waste, including pizza boxes and napkins, as well as yard trimmings and house plants.

Plastic bags (even biodegradable ones), grease, liquids, wire, rubber bands,

kitty litter, diapers, dirt, rocks and garbage are not allowed in the bins.

While wrapping scraps is not required, it is recommended to keep away critters and keep the smell down.

Unfortunately, this idea has many drawbacks

Scraps can be wrapped in newspaper, paper towel, paper bags, cardboard cereal boxes and pizza boxes.

The implementation of the food scrap program has been controversial, with some Burnaby residents

complaining about odour, pests, and other problems brought by the green bin system in the city.

“Maggots have overtaken the bins. Not only are they visible inside the bins, they are in the crevices, in the lids, and most disturbingly, on the surrounding floors around the bins,” Burnaby resident Krystyna Clarke wrote in a recent letter to the NOW. “I cannot help but gag when I have to recycle my scraps.”

Clarke noted that few of the residents in her complex wrap their food waste in newspaper before placing it in the organic waste bins, as is recommended.

“Unfortunately, this idea has many drawbacks. Not only is it unsightly, it is unsanitary and a health haz-

ard,” she added in her letter.

The amount of food waste permitted in garbage bins will be decreased from

25 per cent over time, beginning next January.

Commemorative plaques approved for heritage homes Seven heritage buildings in Burnaby will soon receive commemorative plaques to indicate their status, after Burnaby

council approved a $3,500 budget for the project at Monday night’s meeting.

The Andy Johnson House, D.C. Patterson

House, H.D. Morrison House, Overlynn Mansion, John and Christina Mackie House, W. J. Walker House and William Wil-

son House will each receive a bronze plaque, to be attached to the building’s face, according to a staff report.

The plaques will include the name of the original owner and/or building name, and the building’s construction date, the re-

port stated, as well as indicate the building’s legally protected status.

Sr. Lakers slippin’ and a slidin’

Third-period letdown negates upset at Queen’s Park Tom Berridge

tberridge@burnabynow.com

The Burnaby Lakers are mired in a log jam for last place in the Western Lacrosse Association following back-to-back losses last week.

The senior A Lakers played a sound 40 minutes despite playing with a depleted lineup against the asyet unbeaten New Westminster Salmonbellies before falling 9-8 at Queen’s Park Arena last Thursday. Burnaby were then stoned 7-3 by a hot Coquitlam Adanacs goalie at the Poirier centre on Saturday.

The week began with a promising comeback win over visiting Nanaimo on June 9.

But that promise lost most of its air in the final 20 minutes against the Salmonbellies.

Leading 7-4 heading into the final frame, Burnaby gave up five straight goals before Jackson Decker got one back with just a second left in the Western Lacrosse Association league matchup.

“Tonight, everyone was working hard.We had to be,” Decker said after the game.

Playing without frontrunners Robert Church,Tyler Digby and Casey Jackson, Burnaby got solid outings from its two offensive lines, including Jason Jones, with two goals in a five-point night.

The two teams played it even until midway through the second period, when Jason Jones sparked a threegoal mini run for Burnaby in the final three-plus minutes. Jones had a point in all three goals, including the second of the night from righthander Scott Jones and Shaun Dhaliwal’s long shot in the final minute that gave Burnaby its biggest lead of the night.

But all the hard work went for naught in the third, when Jimmy McBride started things off with a goal off a screen from the right side.

Patrick Miles closed the gap even further with a transition tally and then veteran Tyler Crompton caught everyone napping and scored off a trick play to knot the game at 7-7.

A minute later, first star Logan Schuss scored the go-ahead goal with his second of the game. Salmonbellie rookie and third star Luke Gillespie got the game winner, with his second goal on the night in the final minute on a harmless looking shot off a restart in play.

“It’s exciting. Every team has quality players and when someone’s missing (in the lineup) someone has to step up,” said Schuss. “It was time to get into it in the third.We’re a third-period team. It’s a testament to our conditioning.We like to close out the third.”

And close out they did, Continued on page 24

Timing not kind to juniors Tom Berridge

tberridge@burnabynow.com

Burnaby’s junior A Lakers were the wrong team at the right time for the smarting Delta Islanders.

The Lakers, coming off only their second win of the B.C. Junior Lacrosse League season against Port Coquitlam last Sunday, were taken to the cleaners 22-8 by a Delta team that had dropped a 10-8 outing to the same Saints on Friday.

The timing could not have been worse for the Laker juniors who were badly in need of a further confidence boost after the

thrilling comeback win last week.

But Delta scored early and often, with Spencer Bromley leading all scorers with five goals and five assists, while Delta’s rookie of the year hopeful Tre Leclaire had a nine-point night, including seven helpers to up his league-leading assists tally to 41.

Aidan Milburn led the Lakers with a five-point outing. Danny Spagnuolo also had a hat trick for the Lakers.

On Sunday, Burnaby was hoping for more Copeland centre magic, but fumbled away a six-goal comeback with a 13-12

loss to the Langley Thunder.

James Rahe was a hard man to stop, scoring six times, including the game winner off a turnover at midfloor with the score tied and less than two minutes left to play.

Burnaby headed into the third period trailing Langley 9-6, but got a spark from Tyler Kirkby, who scored the first of three straight unassisted goals by the Lakers.

Later in the period, the Lakers fell behind by two goals on a couple of occasions down the stretch but managed to again pull even at 12-12 on markers by

Justin Appels and Milburn, with his unassisted hat trick tally.

Head coach Brad Parker said while the players are still coming out and competing hard, the team must continue to work on possessing loose balls, refrain from stick checking on defence and playing tougher in the offensive zone.

“We got to possess the ball more. It’s been a struggle this year, … and we’re not there yet,” Parker said.

Burnaby has a week off until it meets up with the Nanaimo Timbermen at the Bill Copeland Sports Centre on Sunday at 5 p.m.

Vancouver Stealth captain up for NLL award

Byrne Creek Secondary School instructor shortlisted for NLL sportsmanship award in September Curtis Hodgson of Burnaby was named one of the finalists for the 2015 National Lacrosse League sportsmanship award.

The award is given out to the player who is deemed to have exemplified a high level of sportsmanship with tremendous play on the field this season.

“It’s an honour to be nominated for the sportsmanship award,” said

Hodgson in a press release.

“I’m glad to be a part of a great team and organization and happy to help grow the league and the sport in any way I can.”

Hodgson is the longest serving Vancouver Stealth player, now in his 11th season in the NLL, all with the Stealth organization. He was the captain of the team this season, registering five points, including a goal, and

45 loose balls.

The 33-year-old veteran defender has missed only one game over his career spanning 179 games.

Hodgson was recently named the director of the Stealth Lacrosse Academy and its Junior Stealth programs.

The Burnaby school teacher played collegiately at Simon Fraser University and was a fourth round

(43rd overall) selection in the 2001 NLL Draft.

Hodgson is the Stealth’s all-time regular season leader in games played with 174. He also has 593 loose balls, which ranks fourth in Stealth franchise history. He has played in three Champions Cup games, including winning the championship in 2010.

“Curtis is a prime example of a leader and team

player,” said Stealth president and general manager Doug Locker in the release.

“He leads on and off the floor with his professionalism and work ethic. Our players, as well as the players around the league, have the utmost respect for him.”

Hodgson is also a fulltime teacher at Byrne Creek Secondary School, where he serves as athletic director, teaching social studies and

physical education.

Hodgson joins Rochester Knighthawks transition player Jordan Hall and New England Black Wolves forward Kyle Buchanan as the three finalists for the award.

The awards are determined by a vote of the league’s board of governors, general managers and head coaches.The winners will be announced at a ceremony on Sept. 29 in Toronto.

SFU skater retires

Festival fun: The Burnaby Lakers, in black, took on the Delta Falcons in an under-13 field hockey game at the girls’ Learn to Train five-aside club festival at Burnaby Lake Sports Complex-West last weekend.

Competed internationally for Canada for 11 years

Three-time Canadian medallist Jeremy Ten announced his retirement from competitive figure skating last Friday.

Ten competed internationally for Canada for 11 years.

The Burnaby-based Centre of Excellence skater is a three-time national team member, two-time world team member in 2009 and 2015, and is also a two-time Canadian junior medallist, winning the junior national title in 2007.

“It was an honour and privilege this past season to represent Canada at my second world championships

as the reigning Canadian silver medallist. I would like to thank Skate Canada for all their support and for giving me the opportunity to compete on the international stage for the last 11 years,” said Ten in a Skate Canada press release. “I couldn’t be more grateful for all the life experiences you can only learn while travelling the world, competing against the best in the world, and being a Canadian athlete.”

“Jeremy has been a big part of the Canadian skating scene for over a decade, including representing Canada at two world championships,” said Mike Slipchuk,

Skate Canada’s high performance director in the release. “Skate Canada wishes Jeremy the best of luck in his next chapter and we look forward to seeing him staying involved in other capacities.”

Ten also graduated from Simon Fraser University with a bachelor of arts in health sciences and minor in kinesiology last Friday.

Ten plans on staying involved in the sport as much as possible by exploring his options as a coach, focusing on choreography, as well as possibly getting involved in judging.

WWC women at B.C. Place

Canada’s national women’s soccer team will be playing at B.C. Place in the Round of 16 following a first-place finish in the group stage of the Women’s World Cup. Canada drew 1-1 with the Netherlands on teenager Ashley Lawrence’s first international A team goal in the 10th minute before more than 45,000 of the faithful at Olympic Stadium in Montreal on Monday.

The tie gave Canada a total of five points, topping Group A over both China and the Dutch, with four points apiece.

Canada will play the third-place team from either Group C, D or E at B.C. Place on Sunday, June 21.

Former Laker hot in goal Continued from page 23 scoring five times on just 12 shots on Burnaby’s new goalie Tye Belanger.

Eric Penney scored his third win of the season in goal for New West, stopping 41 Laker shots, while putting up a 0.854 save percentage.

On Saturday, Coquitlam goalie Dan Lewis, who was traded by Burnaby to the Adanacs in the off season, stoned his former teammates with 48 saves and a blistering 0.941 save percentage to garner a game star.

Lewis blanked Burnaby in both the first and third periods to earn the Adanacs’ second WLA win after the team’s shaky

start of the season.

Burnaby trailed throughout the contest despite outscoring their hosts 3-2 in the middle frame on goals by Dane Stevens, Scott Jones and Dhaliwal.

Ryan Johnson led the A’s with three goals.

Just six minutes in penalties were whistled down in the Saturday match.

The Lakers hosted Maple Ridge at the Bill Copeland Sports Centre on Tuesday (after NOW deadlines). Game time is 7:45 p.m.

Burnaby is back at it on Wednesday at the Langley Events Centre for a tilt with the Thunder, also at 7:45 p.m.
