Behind the riot
Youth custody centre staff say they are dealing with more violence in the prison because inmates do not face severe enough consequences By Tereza Verenca
tverenca@burnabynow.com
Teens who participated in a riot at the BurnabyYouth Custody Services Centre this past summer openly mocked a perceived lack of severe consequences, according to documents obtained by the NOW. The Ministry of Child and Family Development’s incident investigation report, acquired through a freedom of information request, paints a picture of events leading up to and during the July 19 riot that seem to support earlier anecdotal claims made by union officials. The incident, which began around 8:22 p.m., started with a supervisor calling a Code Red after a youth who seemed “extremely nervous and fidgeting” asked for the time. He pushed past the supervisor as she was Continued on page 8

DISTRICT TRIED TO ACCOMMODATE HIM
School plumber loses bid for human rights case By Cornelia Naylor
cnaylor@burnabynow.com
A Burnaby school district plumber’s discrimination complaint has been dismissed by the B.C. Human Rights Tribunal without a
hearing, according to an Oct. 18 decision posted on the tribunal’s website. Wayne Carr, a School District No. 41 plumber since May 2006, filed a complaint saying the district had discriminated against

him because of a physical disability he sustained after injuring himself stepping out of his work van in September 2014. Carr said the district did not accommodate his return to work.
The school board, however, argued it had offered the plumber retraining as a custodian and an education assistant, as well as for a clerical position, after a February 2015 WorkSafeBC decision ruled Carr’s limi-

tations would prevent him from returning to his pre-injury job. The board said it did not have sufficient light duties for a full-time plumbing job for Carr, who, as of March 2015, was performing about
10 to 20 per cent of the work requirements of a fulltime position, according to the board. According to the ruling, the board told WorkSafe in March 2015 that the Continued on page 4

CORONER’S INQUEST
Suspect, victim ID’d
Jury recommends ongoing training for police dealing with acutely agitated people
By Jeremy Deutsch
jdeutsch@burnabynow.com
Both the suspect and victim in Burnaby’s latest homicide have been identified. Last Friday, the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team announced manslaughter and aggravated assault charges against Samuel James Calladine, 53. The charges stem from an incident at a homeless camp earlier in the week. On Oct. 24, police were called to a double stabbing at a homeless camp in the area of Rumble Street and Griffith Drive. Police found an injured man who was taken to hospital and later released. But after searching the area, police found a second man in a ravine who succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene.
The dead man has been identified as Rickey Gordon Melanson, 48. Police noted the two men had known each other for years and had set up their tents in the ravine. “IHIT and Burnaby RCMP investigators have worked collectively to obtain the evidence required for charge approval,” said IHIT Cpl. Meghan Foster in a statement. “The charges against Mr. Calladine, just a few days post offence, speaks to the persistence and commitment shown by all agencies, to seek justice for those who have died unfairly.” Police didn’t offer any further details about the homicide. Calladine remains in custody and is expected to be in court on Nov. 10. According to court re-
cords, Calladine has a lengthy criminal record going back years that includes convictions for assaults in Surrey and Chilliwack. Earlier this week, IHIT also noted there was no apparent connection to a homicide at another homeless camp a couple weeks ago. On Oct. 9 the body of Kevin William Knuff, 56, was found near a homeless camp on North Road.That investigation is still ongoing. Meanwhile, Monday’s incident is Burnaby’s third murder of the month and fifth of the year. On Oct. 5, Hee Sook Youn’s body was found in her Burnaby business on North Road.The main suspect, her husbandYoungku Youn, is still being sought by police.

The death of a man during a struggle with Burnaby cops has resulted in a trio of recommendations from a coroner’s inquest. Last week, an inquest was held into the death of Maurizio Angelo Facchin, a 50-year-old Vancouver man who died on June 4, 2014 after police used a conducted energy weapon – more commonly known as a Taser – on him. A verdict by the jury ruled his death as accidental and returned three recommendations for the RCMP. One of the recommendations reads: “RCMP policy for the use of Conduct-
ed Energy Weapons (CEW) notes that when persons are acutely agitated or delirious those persons may be at a higher risk of death. Policy further recommends that, whenever possible, RCMP members anticipating the use by them of CEWs should request the assistance of emergency medical services.The RCMP is requested to ensure that all active members are aware of this policy, not only those trained in the use of CEW.” The jury also recommended ongoing officer training include case studies on the early recognition and appropriate response to a person with excited delirium and a request for RCMP to review dispatch-
er training with the agency that provides dispatch services to optimize the information presented to police, particularly with respect to the early recognition of potential cases of excited delirium. The jury found that Facchin’s immediate cause of death was excited delirium due to cocaine toxicity. The incident happened June 4 when Burnaby RCMP officers were called to an apartment on Walker Avenue to deal with a person who had broken a window. Once there, police were told the man inside was an extremely large ex-football player and had been using Continued on page 4

School district staffer loses human rights bid Continued from page 1 district had 300 urgent work order requisitions in a backlog and only three remaining full-time plumbers taking care of 54 sites and well over 1,500 fixtures. Carr argued the board did not offer him a clerical position and that he would have taken one if it had been offered. He rejected the custodi-
an and education assistant’s jobs, he said, because custodians have to move heavy furniture, skids of boxes of copy paper and other heavy supplies, and education assistant jobs can require moving children, desks and furniture – none of which was possible given his physical limitations.

Kurt Heinrich, director of communications at the university, told the NOW SFU has raised concerns about the risks, both as an intervener before the National Energy Board and in submissions to the Kinder Morgan review panel. “(We made it clear) that we would not find acceptable any increase in health and safety risks to our community resulting from the project.We will continue to voice our concerns to the federal government and to Kinder Morgan, and to update the community about our findings.The health and safety of the SFU community – people who live, work and study on Burnaby Mountain – is the universi-
ty’s highest priority,” Heinrich said in an email. Meanwhile, Barke said there’s a “conscious or unconscious assumption” among SFU students that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will not give the $6.8-billion project the green light. “(The Liberals) did promise to sort of overhaul the process and there hasn’t really been an admission or a discussion that that’s not happening,” he added. In regards to the federal panel that visited communities along the pipeline route this summer, he said many of his peers wondered if that was the overhaul that was promised. “I think it was hard for people to believe that this is all we’re getting, this is our last chance to say anything; a panel where nothing’s being recorded (and) they have no powers to recommend,” he explained. The federal government will make a decision on the Kinder Morgan file by Dec. 19.

Inquest findings Continued from page 3 drugs and booze.The three RCMP members made their way into the apartment where they were confronted by the suspect, who attacked one of the officers. During a struggle, police used a Taser and a lateral neck restraint, eventually getting the man to the ground. It’s at that point the man went into medical distress and eventually died. In March, the province’s Criminal Justice Branch announced there would be no charges against the RCMP officers in the case. The details of the investi-
gation into the police handling of the incident was detailed in a media statement from the branch. “After reviewing the available evidence in its entirety, Crown counsel concluded that the evidence is not sufficient to prove, beyond a reasonable doubt, that the police officers used more force than was reasonably necessary to subdue and restrain the suspect, including their use of physical restraint, a CEW, a carotid neck restraint and, eventually, handcuffs,” the report stated.
she wrote. “Faced with Mr. Carr’s physical limitations andWorkSafeBC’s decision that Mr. Carr was permanently disabled and not able to return to work in his former position, the Board’s offer to train him into other positions was reasonable enough for him to at least try to see if he could perform them, possibly on a modified basis if necessary.”

‘Tombstones’ protest demovictions in city Jeremy Deutsch
jdeutsch@burnabynow.com
Housing advocates continue to fight the loss of older rental buildings in Burnaby, setting their sights on proposed changes to the Metrotown development plan. On Thursday, local members of ACORN (Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now) gathered at the corner of Dunblane Avenue and Imperial Street, the site of recent demolitions of older apartments in the city, to protest the ongoing demoviction issue in Burnaby. The group hung up cardboard “tombstones” along a construction fence to signify the number of apartment buildings lost to new development in the area. Members of ACORN also called on the city to scrap the current Metrotown development plan and create a new plan that would allow for more affordable housing. “There’s going to be homelessness as a result of
this as a direct action of the city council,” said ACORN spokesperson and Burnaby resident Murray Martin. He suggested the Metrotown plan under consideration would mean the loss of 3,000 rental units, displacing as many as 8,000 people.

The local ACORN chapter is also calling on local MLAs, both NDP and Liberal, along with candidates in the next provincial election to condemn the demovictions.

plan that would shape the area for decades to come. Thursday’s gathering also gave former residents of demolished buildings a chance to “eulogize” their former homes. Matthew Hunter lived at 5025 Imperial St. until he was evicted to make way for a new development. “It’s so weird to look where my building was for years and it’s just a demolition site now,” he said. Hunter said it was the cheapest apartment he’s ever had, adding “it was too good to be true.” “People like me aren’t welcome here anymore,” he said, adding only “rich people” are welcome in the new Metrotown plan. In September, after a similar protest, Coun. Colleen Jordan defended the consultation process, adding there will be many other opportunities for residents to have a say. She noted it’s still early on in the process and the project will have to go to a public hearing before it gets approved.

Oil recovery plan is pie in the sky It’s not surprising that dead sea animals are washing up on shore near Bella Bella after a tug sank two weeks ago and released an unknown amount of the tug’s 226,840 litres of diesel and 10,000 litres of heavy oil and dirty bilge water escaped. That is the immediate impact of the accident. No one knows at this point what the future holds for the waters the Heiltsuk Nation depends upon for
food and income. Disaster doesn’t seem too strong a term for whatever damage this spill will wreak. What is also not surprising is that the spill response was fully inadequate and officials now believe that only about 15 per cent of any fuel or oil released may have been contained or captured. A boom that was to contain the spill broke and a spill response boat sank. “You literally can’t make this stuff up,” said Andrew
Weaver, leader of the Green Party in B.C. As Weaver noted: “This spill, as well as the bunker oil leak in Vancouver Harbour that closed beaches, demonstrate that it is impossible for the provincial and federal governments to meet all of the five conditions set by the province regarding pipeline expansion.” And yet Trans Mountain, which has been given the preliminary nod from
the National Energy Board, provided the NEB with a model that showed much higher recovery amounts for oil if a spill occurred on the West Coast. That model said that over half the oil would be recaptured.Trans Mountain counted on rapid deployment and good planning. Really? Apparently that was on an ideal day with ships and crews in the immediate area.
It took 20 hours just for a vessel to reach the site of the Bella Bella spill. By that time, with winds and tidal action, the fuel had already dispersed and contaminated everything it touched. Imagine if a huge oil tanker carrying a massive amount of oil suffered the same fate of the tug. It is unthinkable what it would do to B.C.’s coast. Trans Mountain’s plan calls for an increase of tanker traffic from about seven a
month to 35.That’s rolling the dice with very bad odds. B.C. can’t afford to take such a chance, and the federal government should throw out the NEB recommendation. If the NEB’s recommendation is based on such a completely bogus oil recovery model, why should we believe the rest of the findings? COMMENT ON THIS AT

MY VIEW KEITH BALDREY
‘Consent’ is up for discussion What could turn out to be one of the defining issues in the upcoming provincial election is coming into view, and it’s not one of the usual topics. Consider this question: should First Nations possess “consent” over any law or “administrative measure” that may affect them, no matter if a duly elected provincial and/or federal government wants to enact such a law or measure? The B.C. Liberals and the NDP have starkly different positions on this issue, which has emerged because of the United Nations Declaration of the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. The declaration is aimed at strengthening the human rights and cultural protection of indigenous peoples, but it contains some controversial clauses that some (though certainly not all) think give First Nations a de facto “veto” over pretty much everything that may affect them (such as any resource development, such as the Trans-Mountain pipeline expansion, LNG projects, mines, dams etc.). The declaration specifically mentions “consent” as something that is required for First Nations to give before something that affects their community proceeds. Lawyers seem to interpret the true meaning of this language in different ways, with some arguing it bestows onto First Nations “veto rights” on all kinds of things, while others reject that argument and insist any First Nations would
have to win a court ruling that clearly grants them true consent. In any event, NDP leader John Horgan has pledged to embrace and adopt the entire declaration (he disagrees that it creates a veto), while Premier Christy Clark says it would indeed create a veto and has said there is no way her government would adopt resolutions which in her words would allow a small community to dictate the economic policies of the majority. The two leaders could not be further apart on an issue that will play out differently in different parts of the province. It will also reveal the divide that exists among First Nations themselves when it comes to things such as resource development and how the issue of “consent” can be confusing for some of those projects. For example, a majority of First Nations directly affected by the PNW LNG project actually support it, but a much smaller number is opposed. However, media coverage leaves the impression of wholesale opposition, which simply isn’t true. I’ll leave it to Clark and Horgan to argue the fine points of this issue come the next election. Unless they come to disagree on the concept of balancing the government budget on an annual basis, there is a much wider gulf between them on this issue than most others.

‘... in the public trough’
Derek Corrigan shot back after Liberal MLA Gary Farrell-Collins made public the city councillor’s expense account as B.C.Transit’s part-time chair. Corrigan racked up a total of $73,000 in salary and expenses between April 1994 and January 1995. “This is a classic example of a friend of the NDP having their snout firmly embedded in the public trough,” Farrell-Collins said. Corrigan said he made much more money as a trial lawyer and that the MLA’s words didn’t show much class.

Dear Editor Burnaby city council likes to tell people that there’s nothing they can do to alleviate the high cost of housing, and that it’s up to senior levels of government to provide affordable housing for us. Council also likes to tell us that we have to zone for higher density, and there’s nothing they can do about what happens afterwards. This is not true. Section 482 of the Local Government Act makes clear that when establishing different density rules for a zone, municipalities can include conditions relating to the provision of affordable housing, including the number, kind and extent of that housing within the new zone. Zoning bylaws may also create areas within a zone specifically for affordable housing. This section of the act states that municipal governments can enter into housing agreements with property owners, and that the government can include terms on rents and lease, and the rates that rents can be increased over time. This is all in plain language; it doesn’t mask itself in legalese. Our elected officials feel that they can do nothing to protect affordable housing. Don’t let them get away with this distortion of the law. Trevor Ritchie, Burnaby
Newwester I wonder if councillor Anne Kang, who is running for the New Demovictions Party in the election for this area, is going to come out against demovictions. Metrotown is where the the NDP gets lots of votes in Metrotown, so it would be a mistaket to ignore this issue.

Burnaby city council does have a say
Kisai The problem isn’t the plan, the problem is that the city says they “can’t tell developers what to build” which is a crock. That is what zoning is for. They could: - Create a new zoning for rent-controlled/subsidized rentals/market rentals only - The city could buy all the remaining rental buildings to protect them and replace them over time with denser rentals at the same price. - The city could mandate 20% affordable rental units in ALL buildings with more than 2 floors. There are plenty of options, but the city council just doesn’t care. As long as a developer is willing to build anything with the word “luxury” in it, they’re sold on it.

Dear Editor The merciless rezoning of Metrotown’s densest rental neighbourhood (Boundary-Grange/Kingsway- Royal OakImperial) must stop immediately. In order to build a condo skyscraper zone, the city is throwing a large area of affordable rental housing stock before the bulldozers without appropriate public consultation. The city’s actions are unethical, undemocratic and inhumane. Replacement before displacement: Affordable rental housing must be replaced (by affordable market rental units, social housing, co-ops) before tenThe city’s ants can be actions are displaced. Destroyunethical, ing 3,000 undemocratic rental units and inhumane in Burnaby’s Metrotown rental zone means disrupting the lives of up to 6,000 people and throwing thousands of people into uncertainty. If the city approves the rezoning plan that the council is going to vote on in November, then the catastrophe will accelerate and we will see demoviction on steroids. Contrary to Mayor Corrigan’s parrot-like auto-response that “there is nothing we can do,” the power to prevent this huge disaster lies absolutely in the hands of the city. No. 1: stop and revise the Metrotown rezoning plan; No. 2:stop granting development permits. Erika Schinzel, Burnaby

EVICT CORRIGAN Lots of old people know that living around hubs like Metrotown gives them a better chance to be reached by ambulances and taken to hospitals in time (we call this critical time the Golden Hour). I have seen countless medical emergencies around Metrotown that were dealt with very, very well. Mayor Corrigan does not know this. Or maybe de does not like old people when he demovicts them through stupid rezoning of entire communities that have special needs and must to be close to everything. The Mayor’s vision is to deport them to the middle of nowhere. Good luck finding them and bringing them to a hospital during the said golden hour. Good luck old folks. … Well, when the time comes, go vote for Corrigan if you are still alive.

City now FROM THE FRONT: YOUTH CUSTODY CENTRE RIOT
Violence a big concern for officers: union Continued from page 1 attempting to close the office door. Six youth then climbed up on cupboards above the sink and on the window ledges, according to the report. “All residents began throwing food and hot water they had made for tea, at staff, while yelling, ‘We don’t give a f**k’ and ‘What, are you going to give me a two-hour timeout?’” the document reads. Despite being told to return to their rooms by staff, all youth, except one, did not comply. The youth then started to throw water bombs toward the office, which prompted the staff who were inside to place sandbags in front of the door. Staff also witnessed residents breaking a television, a microwave and a dishwasher.The rioters then proceeded to kick the office door in an attempt to break in. At this time, staff
collected the unit logbooks and files, secured all the doors and exited the units. “Through the unit door in the rotunda … we witnessed the residents covering their faces with clothing to conceal their identities,” according to statements from unidentified staff members in the

report. The youth did gain access to the office, where they were overheard using the phones to call control and to make calls to the public. Staff in the parking lot also saw the residents
trying to break the windows to escape. Staff then began to smell smoke, which came from a small fire that had been started, according to the report. “We had also noticed that they had caused a flood of the unit, as there was water pouring into the classrooms in the rotunda.” Both police and the Burnaby Fire Department responded to the riot, which ended around 2:30 a.m.There were no injuries to staff or youth. The B.C. Government and Service Employees’ Union, which represents staff at the custody centre, maintains violence in the youth prison has risen in the last couple of years. “We’ve been told by the correctional officers that work there that violence is a big concern,” said union spokesperson Dean Purdy, adding there was another riot attempt on Aug. 24
and a “significant fire” on Sept. 17 at the Burnaby facility. Purdy told the NOW violence has gone up because youth don’t face severe consequences for their actions. Rather, he said, the ministry takes a “therapeutic” approach when it comes to punishment. “If they participate in a riot, the most they can do is lock them up for, I think, 60 hours. Can you imagine? What are the consequences? A kid getting locked up for 60 hours isn’t going to deter that type of behaviour,” he said. “Our members who work at the Burnaby youth custody centre are fed up. Staff feel hamstrung to maintain control.” According to the Ministry of Children and Family Development, the total number of incidents of violence has not increased. “It has remained steady
– or declined – over the past three-and-a-half years,” reads an emailed statement. The ministry said the

primary motivating factor behind the July 19 riot was a room search earlier in the day, which resulted in a loss of privileges. “Youth can receive a consequence for an infraction, including the loss of privileges – like restricting their participation in an optional program like crafts, cooking or wood working. “Staff conduct searches of youth, their posses-

sions, their clothing or their room when staff believe – upon reasonable probable grounds – that a youth is in possession of contraband items,” the statement reads. The custody centre also has a contract with a drugdetection dog company, used only when contraband is suspected. Youth confinement, meanwhile, is used for security and safety reasons, not for disciplinary reasons, the ministry said. The summer incident led to a number of recommendations, including completing a review of the accessories available in each unit to see what items are necessary and which ones could be removed. Deadbolts were added to office doors, while staff ratios during meals and before bedtime were increased. COMMENT ON THIS STORY

Police called out to wartime ammunition find Jeremy Deutsch
jdeutsch@burnabynow.com
It’s not a completely uncommon call for police. Someone is cleaning out an older relative’s home when they come across something that looks like part of a bomb or weapon. That’s exactly what happened last Friday afternoon in Burnaby, when lo-
cal Mounties were called out to a home in the 5500 block of Halley Avenue.The area was blocked off after the discovery of “unexploded military ordinance.” More specifically, police described the item as a large-calibre piece of ammunition, possibly from an anti-tank rifle. It was large enough for the homeowners to call police.
RCMP Staff Sgt. Maj. John Buis said the family was cleaning out their parents’ home when they made the discovery. After a few hours, the device was eventually removed and taken away by the military without any problems. But the incident has RCMP reminding people how to handle the situation if it comes up.
Quiet Halloween for cops – except for chainsaw prankster As far as Halloween nights go, it was a bit of a non-event for local police. It seems Burnaby residents were far more interested in treats than tricks Monday night, as the call volume was similar to a typical Friday night for Burnaby RCMP. Police received 106 calls for service between 6 p.m. and 6 a.m. and 44 calls related to fireworks. There was also a small
handful of weapons complaints and a number of calls of people brandishing a weapon, but no major incidents. “I think the wet weather the last month put a bit of a damper on people’s partying,” RCMP Staff Sgt. Maj. John Buis told the NOW. There was at least one incident that spooked a few people. It happened near Sperling Avenue after police got a report of a man in
a truck dressed in all black wearing a skeleton mask pulling over near a group of people. He apparently got out of his truck, grabbed a chainsaw from the back and started it. He didn’t go near the people, and he got back into his truck and drove off. “I think that was someone’s idea of a joke, which is very frightening,” Buis said, suggesting the prank was in “bad taste.” – Jeremy Deutsch
Wherever you find it, call the police “Wherever you find it, call the police,” Buis suggested, also urging people to move away from the area. “Don’t move it.”
He noted calls like this to police aren’t all that uncommon when relatives are involved in the military. “People are going through relatives’ belongings and they find these things,” he said, adding the devices can still be quite dangerous because it’s hard to tell if they’re live or deactivated. Typically after a call, the
RCMP’s explosives unit or the military will be called in to handle the device. In the case of Friday’s incident, Buis said the family did the right thing by calling police immediately. “It worked out very well. It’s one of those odd things that occurs from time-totime,” he said.

Public Notice of Open Houses
Burnaby to mark 125 years If you’re in the mood for a celebration, next year will offer the opportunity to double your pleasure. Not only does 2017 mark Canada’s 150th birthday, it also signifies Burnaby’s 125 years of existence. And in an effort to celebrate the big dates, the city is putting together some pretty hefty plans for the occasion. Recently, council approved a $280,000 budget for the festivities, which includes a $75,000 grant from the federal government to celebrate the city’s 125th anniversary. A staff report noted the primary objective of the federal grant is to celebrate arts, heritage and culture by providing opportunities for local artists, artisans and heritage performers to participate in the anniversary celebrations. The plan is to schedule performance activities from the beginning of June until Sept. 22, the city’s official birthday. Some of the other plans
also include forming a special events team through the Shadbolt Centre for the Arts to establish a roster of selected performers who will be scheduled for the various events, capitalizing on existing festivals like Hats Off Day in the Heights and expanding the three Canada Day celebrations in
Burnaby. While staff already have some ideas, city politicians are looking for more input from the public. Mayor Derek Corrigan is encouraging businesses, non-profit groups and citizens to get involved. – Jeremy Deutsch

People now PROFILE
Ryan Beedie
Company
BEEDIE DEVELOPMENT GROUP
Why is he in the news? When you’ve been around long enough to make your mark, the accolades will eventually come. For the Beedie group, a major acknowledgement just came its way by the Burnaby Board of Trade: being inducted into the organization’s Burnaby business hall of fame. Founded in 1954, Beedie Development Group is an owner and developer of industrial, commercial and residential real estate. Keith Beedie got his start in the construction business in the 1940s when he and his business partner purchased their first property in Marpole for $190.
Q:What are your thoughts on being named to the Burnaby business hall of fame? A:The word honour, I think, is overused, but in this case it’s completely applicable.We’re really touched to be included. It’s a wonderful thing. Like I said during my talk, my dad’s 90, he’s been in business for 60 years, and at this stage of his life and career, it’s a wonderful achievement. I think it’s a great fit too – a longtime Burnaby resident, Burnaby-based business, and we care a lot about this city, so it’s fantastic.
The family business has grown into what is now the largest private industrial land owner, developer and landlord in Metro Vancouver. The company, which keeps its head office in Burnaby, has completed 20 million square feet of new construction throughout British Columbia and Alberta, including in Burnaby. Ryan Beedie, the president of Beedie Development Group, recently spoke to the NOW about the company’s accomplishments and the business of development. – Jeremy Deutsch

Q: How important are your family’s ties to Burnaby? A: Huge. My dad has lived here for more than 60 years, I was born and raised here, I lived here until I was 25. I come to work here every day, so it’s a very important place in our hearts and we’ve given back significantly to organizations like SFU that are in Burnaby.We’re going to continue to do that, we’ve got some things that we’re working on.This is still home… this is my ’hood, so you don’t lose that. Q:What are some of the challenges right now in the business? A: Depending on the jurisdiction, permit timing can be very long. I think local governments, first of all, have a hard time finding
the people that they need to hire to get permits going, but there is a lot of projects waiting that could be built but there’s not enough people to process. I think local governments could be more responsive. Some are great … but it hurts economic activity and economic growth while projects are waiting in the queue. Finding good development sites, it’s highly competitive. Everyone and their daughter is chasing the same thing, but that’s also a good thing because people are keen to build and evolve. It’s part of the reason why B.C. is leading the country in growth because there is so much construction and good, quality paying jobs. Q:What do you feel is the company’s biggest achievement? A: I think it’s reputation.
We’ve been in business for a long time, and we’ve conducted ourselves in a certain way that we try our best not to vary from.We try to do the right thing, try to think long term, not just about making a quick buck now – we want to make
We try to do the right thing, try to think long term money – but we want to have happy customers, happy clients and do well by the community. For people to look upon us in a positive light which will help propel us into the future. I think we’re a well-respected, wellregarded family and company name, and that means
the world to me because at the end of the day all you have is your reputation and we’re not going to sacrifice that for anything. Q: How has the business changed in all the years since the company started? A: It’s dramatically different, even in the time that I’ve been doing it for 20-something years.When you look back, my dad used to go into the Burnaby planning department and do sketch almost himself and get a permit. It’s how he tells the story, I’m sure it wasn’t like that, but the time to get things done and the complexity was far less complex. A lot of those complications we need, we need better designed buildings. … We need those regulations,
but it’s so burdensome now. I think the quality of the buildings, the quality of the workmanship, the design, the architecture, the things you can do with the technology of buildings is fantastic. It’s an exciting time to be in development. Q:What advice would you have for someone looking to get into the construction and development business? A: For them to gain employment with a quality firm and learn as much as you can because there is a never-ending array to absorb and learn.You want to be with a good company that gives you the opportunities to experience different parts and facets where you can grow. Being with the right company for younger people is the key.

Homeless, injured and abused animals will now get the care and treatment they need thanks to a Burnaby veterinarian’s donation. Earlier this month, Claudia Richter transferred ownership of the Burnaby Veterinary Hospital to the B.C. SPCA, making it the second vet clinic in the Lower Mainland operated by the provincial humane society. “When I purchased Burnaby Veterinary Hospital in late 2010, I had four goals – to modernize the hospital, to achieve a gold standard of care for animals, to create a socially responsible business by giving back to the SPCA and to create a positive work environment for my staff,” Richter said in a press release. For the past four years, the Burnaby vet has donated her time for Vets in Action, a one-day blitz that provides free care for aban-

doned or homeless animals. The animals are brought in by the Burnaby SPCA and Richter and her team of vets, technicians and assistants go to work spaying and neutering the animals and providing dental care as well. For her work, Richter was named the B.C. SPCA’s 2013 Veterinarian of theYear.
The next logical step forward would be to focus her care on both her clients’ pets and the animals at the SPCA, she said in the release. “It quickly became clear to me that the path forward was to donate the clinic to the B.C. SPCA so that, together, we could offer a high standard of care for clients and their pets, as well as ensuring (the hospital’s) mandate of supporting the community’s animals in need continued,” she added. The Burnaby Veterinary Hospital will continue to serve private clients and their pets along with animals at the SPCA. The B.C. SPCA operates several other animal hospitals across the province as well as spay and neuter clinics in Prince George and Kamloops. The Burnaby Veterinary Hospital is at 2210 Springer Ave. For more info, check out burnabyvet.com.

Do you have good hearing but maybe not as good as it used to be? Many people find themselves frustrated when they can hear, but not understand speech. Hearing loss can develop so gradually people do not even realize they have it. Even mild cases can lead to difficulties with processing speech. Fortunately, modern hearing aids can help by stimulating the auditory centers of the brain responsible for speech understanding.
Auditory deprivation may be prevented for some clients through the new Unitron MoxiTM Now hearing aids. These virtually invisible hearing aids are the smallest‡ wireless hearing aids in their class and automatically adapt to any listening environment, making it easier to understand speech while providing appropriate amplification needed to stimulate the brain.
Understanding speech is a necessary part of communication and hearing loss has been proven to limit our daily interactions. Do you rely on visual cues (e.g. reading lips) or are you applying more effort while listening? Maybe you are completely avoiding difficult listening situations all together? If so, these are common signs of hearing loss and it is important to understand the potential impact of leaving it untreated. Did you know that untreated hearing loss can cause the auditory nerves and auditory cortex of the brain to not be stimulated properly? The technical term for this is “auditory deprivation.” People who suffer from auditory deprivation often have difficulty processing speech.
Sears Hearing Centre is currently looking to not only improve hearing, but also to enhance the clarity of speech. We are particularly interested in candidates who find understanding speech to be difficult and can benefit from a free trial to see whether they notice an improvement.
The Unitron MoxiTM Now hearing aid helps stimulate the auditory centers of the brain that are important for processing speech. Research shows that the longer an ear goes without hearing, the greater the effect of auditory deprivation can be. Hearing aids may prevent auditory deprivation as they provide stimulation to the auditory nerves and auditory cortex. Further, the speech understanding abilities of some people improve with hearing aids (recovery from auditory deprivation). However, if hearing aids are put off for too long, it can cause long-lasting speech understanding difficulties.
Interested people can register for a free hearing test and a no-obligation trial of the new Unitron MoxiTM Now hearing aids by calling 1.888.771.7459 or visiting searshearing.ca/now.
YOU WON’T HAVE TO SACRIFICE STYLE OR PERFORMANCE! THE NEW UNITRON MOXI™ NOW IS ALMOST HALF THE SIZE OF OTHER HEARING AIDS IN ITS CLASS‡.

Artsnow Joseph offers fast-paced family fun Julie MacLellan
jmaclellan@burnabynow.com
Colourful costumes, compulsively singable tunes and a storyline lifted straight from the Bible – what’s not to love about Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat? Align Entertainment is bringing the popular Andrew Lloyd Webber-Tim Rice musical to the stage in Burnaby starting this weekend. Joseph opens at the Michael J. Fox Theatre on Friday night, running to Nov. 19. Director Chad Matchette, in the fast-and-furious final week of rehearsals, is brimming over with enthusiasm about the production. “It’s just such a fun show,” he says.
For those unfamiliar with the show, it’s set in ancient Egypt and based on the biblical story of Joseph (Stuart Barkley) and his 11 brothers, centring on the hero’s rags-to-riches journey and his coat of many colors. The production marks the theatre company’s first foray into a two-production season.The Coquitlambased company started life with a February 2014 production of Shrek:The Musical, following that up with The Addams Family in 2015 and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang this past February. This year, the company is staging Joseph this month and looking ahead to The Little Mermaid in February 2017. With Joseph, the company is offering up a musical that may be more familiar

to audiences than its somewhat offbeat choices of the past. But Matchette notes the musical still fits the company’s criteria for family-friendly shows that have roles for kids. He pointed out it’s been nearly seven years since Jo-
seph was seen on a Lower Mainland stage, and there’s a new generation of kids and teens who’ve never had a chance to see the show live. He’s confident that local audiences will embrace this Continued on page 17

Artsnow ‘Amazing’ cast powers new production Continued from page 16 large production, with its 20-member kids’ chorus and 28 adult performers. Matchette and his team – including Kevin Michael Cripps as musical director and Melissa Turpin as choreographer – are bringing the kids’ chorus more into the action than is typical of the musical.While the chorus is often kept off to the side or separated, he’s chosen to incorporate the kids
into the action. He’s also thrilled with the depth of talent that Align Entertainment has assembled once again.With a storyline that’s completely sung through – there are only three lines of spoken dialogue in the show – the musical demands more of its performers than it seems. Matchette notes that isn’t a problem for his cast, which is populated by a number of up-and-coming
new professionals who’ve graduated from Capilano University’s musical theatre program. Featured alongside Barkley are Katie-Rose Connors as the Narrator, Justin Lapena as Pharaoh, Robin Sukorokoff as Jacob, Ryan Koch as Potiphar and Erin Matchette as Mrs. Potiphar. Burnaby actors Jesse Alvarez, Stef Stanley and Sherry Freeman are also in the cast.
I only trust Shylo with my Dad.
“Pretty much everyone in the cast is amazing,” Matchette says. And, of course, the music is paired with energetic choreography and vibrant, colourful costumes and sets – the perfect show for young audience members. “It’s big, it’s colourful, the music is fast, the staging is fun.There’s certainly lots to look at,” Matchette says. “This whole show just makes you happy.”

When you’re in third place, winning the final regular season game is either a good primer for the playoffs or fodder for the underdog storyline. The Burnaby Mountain Lions clinched third place in the BurnabyNew West league last week by edging Burnaby South 3-1. While they still have regular season champion Moscrop (5-1) and Burnaby Central (4-1) ahead of them in the pecking order, that doesn’t mean the 4-2 Lions don’t have a zone berth in their crosshairs. “Our focus going into playoffs has really been working on offence by finishing and placing the ball,” said
Mountain coach Cassandra Der. “We have also been doing a lot of game play to keep our unity cohesive.” That unity has helped bridge the ups and downs of a short season, where the core of the team is still in Grade 11 and one of their main leaders was lost due to a knee injury. The team’s biggest win, Der notes, came on the heels of back-to-back 3-1 losses to Central and Moscrop. Wrestling to get back in a winning mode, the Lions traded shot-for-shot with Burnaby North before prevailing 3-2, setting the stage for a threegame win streak. “Our team has always been really strong on defense and in passContinued on page 20

For the third straight week, the St. Thomas More Knights piled up the points and walked off with the win. And for the first time in a month, veteran rusher Tyler Eckert was in on the fun. The Grade 11 rusher and defensive back was healthy enough to play, scoring twice in the team’s 44-0 win over Mount Boucherie last Friday at Burnaby Lakes. In a similar storyline as the previous two games, STM overpowered its rival and built up a sturdy 21-0 lead at the half, and never looked back. “Tonight was a very complete game for us is all three phases,” said STM coach Bernie Kully. “We started very strong right out of the gate and are showing that we are growing and maturing as a team in terms of both our practice habits and our game performance.” Their record sits at 3-3, putting them in a two-way tie for fourth place in the Eastern Conference with one game remaining. Eckert rushed for 104 yards on 17 carries, and added three tackles and two QB sacks on defence. Quarterback Kolby Buljevic completed 14 of 23 pass attempts for 218 yards and two touchdowns, and scampered into the end zone twice. On the receiving end of Buljevic’s TD passes were Devon Hayek and Josh Wilson, who combined for 125 yards in receptions. Counting another rushing TD was Jonah Fridfinnson. On defence, Mateo Morreira racked up 10 tackles, a QB sack and a safety. In their last three games, STM outpointed its competition 127 to six after being outscored 77-47 in its first three games. They aim to keep that string going this Friday, when the Knights wrap up the regular season against Mission, 5 p.m. at Burnaby Lakes. “Our hope is that we can continue to use this new momentum to finish off the regular season and play our best football of the year come playoff time –which is always the way you want to enter into post-season play,” said Kully.
Joneses lead the way as SFU clinches GNAC title
The No. 3-ranked Simon Fraser University men’s soccer team clinched the Great Northwest Conference championship with a 4-0 win over Northwest Nazarene Saturday evening on Burnaby’s Terry Fox Field. While the game stood scoreless for nearly one whole half, the host Clan were full marks for the win. Adam Jones’ seventh marker of the season stood up as the gamewinner, coming with eight minutes left in the opening half. Free kicks converted by Magnus Kristensen, in the 65th minute, and Kyle Jones, just four minutes later, gave SFU a solid 3-0 lead with about 20 minutes to play.
Rounding out the scoring was Brendan Shaw, who iced it in the final minute as Simon Fraser outshot Northern Nazarene 27-7 on the day. Brandon Watson picked up his eighth shutout of the year – setting a new GNAC record with his 30th of his career. The victory at home extended the team’s home unbeaten streak to a conference record 18 matches. Overall, SFU is unbeaten in its last 21 matches and were selected the Red Lion/GNAC team of the week. The Clan (13-0-2 overall, 9-02 GNAC) is one of only three unbeaten teams left in the NCAA Division 2 circuit.
In the national rankings, Simon Fraser moved back up to No. 3 in the NSCAA coaches poll this week.They had been ranked as high as No. 2 this year in the national poll. SFU is No. 1 in the NCAA West Region rankings, with the top six teams in the rankings at the end of the regular season advancing to the NCAA West Regional tournament. Simon Fraser plays road contests at Western Washington on Nov. 3 and Seattle Pacific on Nov. 5 to close out the regular season. MIDFIELDER GIVES CAPS A LIFT Burnaby’s Edris Najm has set-
tled in nicely with the Capilano Blues in his inaugural season in the PacWest league. The midfielder, a graduate of Byrne Creek, opened the scoring for No. 1-ranked Capilano on Saturday, keying a run that wouldn’t stop until the squad successfully repeated as PacWest provincial champions with a 4-2 win over Douglas College. Najm scored just two minutes into the final to put the underdog Royals on their heels.Teammates Keith Jackson and KristianYiHietanan made it 3-0 before the game was 30 minutes old. Although Douglas College posted a pair of goals in the second
half despite losing a player to a red card, the Blues locked it up on Jackson’s second of the night. A day earlier, Najm again needed only two minutes to put Capilano in the lead, sparking the team to their 5-2 semifinal win. For his efforts, Najm was named the Top Midfielder of the tournament, while Jackson was selected the MVP. Douglas had advanced to the final by upsetting No. 2 seed Vancouver Island 3-2 in penalty kicks. Both Capilano and Douglas now advance to the Canadian Collegiate Athletic Association national championships, Nov. 9 to 12 in Fort McMurray, Alta.

By bouncing the Northwest Nazarene Crusaders 3-1 last week, the Simon Fraser University women’s soccer team assured themselves a spot at the Great Northwest Athletic Conference championships. A good thing too, since the Burnaby Mountain squad is hosting the event. SFU got goals from midfielders Jenna Baxter and Katelyn Erhardsen in the first 12 minutes to stake out a nice lead, en route to clinching the program’s first-ever appearance at the
GNAC tournament. “They knew what was at stake – the girls were playing for a lot, and they came out the way that you would hope for with so much on the line,” said SFU head coach Annie Hamel. Baxter opened the scoring just five minutes from opening whistle, stealing the ball from a Nazarene defender and whipping home a quick shot. Seven minutes later, Erhardsen took a pass from Emma Pringle along the left side and hit the low corner.
Adding an insurance goal late in the contest was Burnaby product Christina Dickson. SFU improved to 7-5-0 in conference action. Now they set their sites on the four-team tourney, which begins Thursday with semifinals, at 4 and 7 p.m., at Terry Fox Field.The hosts face a difficult task, drawing GNAC regular season champion Western Washington in the opener. The championship final goes 1 p.m. on Saturday.

Continued from page 19 ing,” she said. “Our team puts in a lot of heart and determination that results in some long, well deserved rally point wins.” A big boost came with the six players who stepped up as Grade 10s last year, primed to take leadership roles this season. Leading the way have been Tarren Jhuti, Annika Fong and Janessa Quan – all part of the returning core that cut its senior teeth as Grade 10s last year. “Tarren has been our team captain for the past two years – even when she was in Grade 10 and we had grade 11 and 12s
last year,” said Der. “Tarren is a strong focused player who commands our offence and gets us the most kills and points.” Fong, meanwhile, remains a positive force despite suffering a season-ending knee injury. Quan brings a commanding court presence as setter. “Our team relies on (Quan’s) speed and quick decision-making.” The playoffs start Thursday, when Mountain hosts New West (4:30 p.m.) and Burnaby South takes on Burnaby North (6 p.m.).The winners advance to the semifinals, Nov. 8 at Burnaby Central.
