The Vein and Laser Clinic was established in 1992 and since then thousands of patients, have been treated at its central Lonsdale location in North Vancouver. The facility introduced several innovative techniques in British Columbia and it was the first in the province to offer ultrasound-guided sclerotherapy and ambulatory phlebectomy several years ago.The clinic is unique in that it makes extensive use of advanced color doppler and duplex ultrasound, to detect all the diseased vein segments and accurately pinpoint the source of the varicose veins.The technology thus enables delivery of a sclerosing solution into deeper lying vessels with precision that would be very difficult to achieve with conventional techniques. All this makes the treatment safer and more effective with excellent functional and cosmetic results.

4 Lessons in lifesaving

5 Big bucks for city staff

11 A new start in business

To market, to market Summer’s back – and that means it’s time to enjoy the bounty of the Burnaby farmers’ market.

The market runs Saturdays in the north parking lot at Burnaby City Hall, 4949 Canada Way, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. every Saturday until the end of October.

The market features produce from farmers, with both conventional and organic offerings, as well as a selection of jams and preserves, other foods, crafts, plants and more.

A kids’ play area, a community tent for non-profit groups, a used book exchange and a games table are all part of the fun, and entertainers are also on hand to offer up live music for the Saturday shoppers to enjoy.

For more on the market, visit the website at www.artisan markets.ca.

Have your say on the future of garbage Janaya Fuller-Evans staff reporter

Burnaby residents will have one final chance to speak to Metro Vancouver representatives regarding the regional waste management draft plan tonight.

The meeting takes place at Metro Vancouver’s office at 4330 Kingsway, in the second-floor boardroom at 7 p.m. Registration is at 6:30 p.m.

The issue of whether a landfill

or incinerator would be best for the region has been a hot topic as Metro Vancouver has conducted public consultations in its integrated solid waste and resource management plan.

Metro Vancouver’s initial management plan draft favours a waste-to-energy incinerator, and the regional government body has responded to worldwide criticism of the incinerators on its website.

incinerator has not been a problem for the city, Mayor Derek Corrigan said.

“It’s had a relatively low impact,” he said. “There have been no problems.”

He pointed out the city has had the incinerator for about 20 years, and it has not been a health hazard.

“It is generally an accepted technology,” he said.

Landfills, on the other hand, create long-term problems and

adversely affect air quality, Corrigan said.

However, an eight-month review of the waste plan, written by seven University of British Columbia environmental science students, states that adding a waste energy project that would take in approximately 500,000 tonnes of garbage per year, as suggested by the waste plan, would increase emissions of mercury, lead, cadmium and dioxins, as well as nitrogen oxides, which Last week’s question Are you concerned about oil tankers in Burrard Inlet?

The Waste Solutions for Metro Vancouver review recommended a different approach, primarily a waste reduction and diversion solution, with increased recycling and composting in the region.

They also recommend a Pay As You Throw disposal system, which would charge residents to dispose of waste, and an extended producer responsibility approach, which would pressure Waste Page 5

Local teachers get lifesaving lessons Jennifer Moreau

Lifesavers: Above, SFU student teacher Gareth Tilt and Liana Greiner get some hands-on practice with CPR. Above right, Elizabeth Bentley and Gary Leung learn from Troy Gienger of the B.C. Ambulance Paramedics Local 873. They were all in training at Burnaby North Secondary School.

Local teachers are taking CPR lessons so they can teach their students how to save lives.

On June 21, 34 Burnaby teachers from around the district spent the day learning CPR as part of an Advanced Coronary Treatment Foundation program. The foundation partnered with the B.C. Ambulance Service and the provincewide paramedics’ union to bring the program to schools across the province.

B.J. Chute is the paramedics’ union spokesperson and a volunteer instructor with the program.

“First we brush them up on their CPR skills ... then we run them through scenarios so they can both practise their CPR skills and teach the skills ultimately to their stu-

dents,” he said.

The training means teachers can deal with emergencies like choking, severe allergic reactions and heart attacks. The program is tremendously helpful for the students, Chute added.

“It gives students lifesaving skills they will have with them for the rest of their lives,” he said. “We know, as paramedics, the earlier CPR is performed, the better that patient’s chance of survival is.”

Having the Burnaby teachers trained means they can pass the knowledge on to 1,700 local students. The CPR training is aimed at Grade 10 physical education classes. In all, the foundation expects 50,000 B.C. youth will be trained in CPR each year through the program.

Pharmaceutical companies fund the foundation, and the instructors volunteered their time to lead the workshop.

Mayor: Corrigan’s pay now fourth among Lower Mainland mayors continued from page 1

Corrigan is now the fourth best-paid mayor in the region, coming in below Vancouver, Coquitlam and Surrey’s mayors.

Vancouver’s mayor, Gregor Robertson, makes $140,001, Coquitlam’s Richard Stewart makes $118,945 and Surrey’s Dianne Watts makes $115,178.

In previous years, the mayor’s pay rate has been determined as city councillors’ raises are, by taking inflation, provincial wage increases and union wage increases

into account.

The indemnities are traditionally calculated by averaging the amount of the consumer price index increase, the B.C. average weekly wage increase and increase given to the city’s unionized employees, members of the Canadian Union of Public Employees, Local 23.

Corrigan made $95,029 in 2008 and $92,857 in 2007.

The indemnity committee also suggested each councillor get a vehicle allowance, which council approved.

Previously, only the mayor received an

annual vehicle allowance.

The committee has suggested a monthly allowance of $300, or $3,600 per year, for each councillor.

The allowance is taxable, the report said.

Vancouver, Coquitlam and Delta also provide councillors with annual vehicle allowances, the report noted.

Vancouver councillors’ annual allowance is $3,700.44, Coquitlam’s is $3,542.76 and Delta’s is $7,248.48.

Surrey provides its councillors with a mileage provision of 53 cents per kilome-

tre, up to 5,000 kilometres, after which they are reimbursed 47 cents per kilometre.

Councillors also saw a pay increase, though at the more modest rate of 1.66 per cent, as calculated by averaging the three provincial increases, noted above.

Councillors now make $44,017, also retroactive to Jan. 1 2010, up from $43,298 last year.

The next indemnity review is slated for the spring of 2011, and recommendations from that review will be effective for the next mayor and council, following the 2011 election.

More city employees hit the $100,000 mark Janaya Fuller-Evans staff reporter

A growing number of city staffers are earning more than $100,000.

In 2009, 73 staff members made more than $100,000, up from 65 in 2008.

The number of staffers in the $100,000 club has risen steadily in recent years, up from 50 in 2007.

The city recently released its annual report detailing staff salaries and claimed expenses as part of its annual financial statements.

By law, the city must publish details of the salary paid to each employee earning more than $75,000, as well as expenses, and a total of salaries paid to all other

employees earning under $75,000.

The highest paid employee was Bob Moncur, city manager, who made $217,304 and was paid $1,088 for expenses.

The other top five paid employees include: ◆ Chad Turpin, the deputy city manager, who made $185,594 and did not claim expenses; ◆ Lambert Chu, the director of engineering, who made $165,393 plus $6,516 in expenses; ◆ Rick Earle, former finance director and current deputy city manager, who made $165,393 plus $1,537 for expenses; ◆ Basil Luksun, director of planning and building, who made $165,344 plus $6,186 for expenses.

Other city staff members making more than $100,000 include department directors such as parks, recreation and cultural

The students who wrote the review for the environmental science directed studies course are Anthony Ho, Jessica MacDonald, Clement Lam, Monika Dean, Joseph Lai, Nan Lu and Nari Sim. On July 8, Vancouver city council approved a staff recommendation asking Metro Vancouver to have an independent review conducted of the impact of

mass burn incineration.

Burnaby city council submitted its recommendations regarding the plan in early June but did not specify whether it supported a waste-to-energy incinerator or a landfill option to deal with Metro Vancouver’s trash disposal problems.

With recent headlines including a fatal crash involving a houseboat and a speed boat on Shuswap Lake and a string of drownings in Ontario, the message of safety on the water obviously needs to be heard.

The beach towel approach is blunt, but so are the Mothers Against Drunk Driving and Counterattack ads we see on TV each Christmas. They’re unpleasant to watch but surely save lives by reminding people to think about safety

and how their actions can impact others.

For years, we’ve used the term “accident” to refer to car crashes, drownings and other incidents that cause people to die.

The Community Against Preventable Injuries reminds us that many so-called accidents didn’t need to happen and that the best time to think about consequences is before taking action, not after. With that in mind, enjoy your time at the beach – but don’t forget to pack your common sense.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Seniors’ care funding up

Dear Editor:

In regards to a recent article about funding increases for residential care and New Vista Care Home’s assertion that they are being underfunded, I’d like to offer a few points for your readers’ information.

Fraser Health has made significant investments over the years in residential care for seniors, and that has meant better, more appropriate residentfocused care for our citizens. Almost half-a-billion dollars per year is invested in residential care across the Fraser Health region – that’s about $1.25 million every day of the year.

New Vista has an excellent record of providing

care for Burnaby seniors, and they are receiving $71,000 more funding this year than last year. Total public funding for New Vista has risen by 42 per cent since 2002/03.

Like governments, health authorities, or your own household, care providers need to balance providing the services they do within the budgets they have. In the health sector, budgets have been continually growing, and New Vista has received significant increases. This year, they will receive about $11 million in public funding, plus more than $2 million in residents’ fees.

We’re working to ensure that all care service providers in Fraser Health operate under a standard care delivery model. This means that residents and

MS patients need treatment

Dear Editor:

Thank you for the story about the woman with MS (Family seeks hope in Mexican hospital, Burnaby NOW, July 10) seeking treatment for chronic cerebrospinal venous insufficiency (CCSVI) in Mexico – more publicity is needed to show the unfairness/ discrimination of B.C. and Canadian health authorities.

The treatment for blocked veins is available in Canada – just not for people with a diagnosis of MS. Even though one of the principles of the Canada Health Act is universality. The act says: “The provincial and territorial plans must entitle all insured persons to health insurance coverage on uniform terms and conditions.”

People with MS are not allowed to receive this venoplasty/angioplasty that is

used on others (such as heart and kidney dialysis patients) every day. Why? Please try to find out for me – I don’t understand, and I have been asking everybody I can think of. Nobody will admit to foot-dragging because it would affect the bottom line for neurologists who will lose patients and pharmaceutical companies who won’t be raking in huge profits for basically ineffective drugs.

They keep trying to call it “experimental,” but it has been performed in Canada safely for more than 30 years. When they say it’s because it’s not usually done in the jugular veins, I think of all the dialysis patients whose jugular veins have become blocked because of repetitive use. How would they feel if they were told they couldn’t have this procedure done? But they can. I wonder if they could receive it if they also had MS? The small amount of money put forward by the MS societies of Canada and the U.S. for trials ($2.4 million combined) is only being used to see if CCSVI is more common in people with MS. It shouldn’t matter if CCSVI is related to MS or not. CCSVI is a condition recognized by the International Union of Phlebology, of which Canada is a member, and according to the Handbook of Angioplasty and Stenting Procedures, 303 Techniques in Interventional Radiology, “any symptomatic venous narrowing can be considered an indication for venoplasty and venous stenting.” It doesn’t say “except for people with MS.” Lori Batchelor, Burnaby

Race: Carole vs. Carole in 2013? continued from page 6

Vancouver city hall – take over the party leadership unopposed in 1987. The New Democrats were mindful how much damage a messy leadership fight can do to a party, particularly when things don’t go as planned and a long-shot candidate whom no one really wanted as leader ends up being just that (remember Bob Skelly?).

The B.C. Liberals, however, seem to have no end of people whose ambition may lead them to reach for the leader’s position.

Cabinet ministers such as Rich Coleman, Kevin Falcon, Mike de Jong, Shirley Bond, George Abbott and even the beleaguered Colin Hansen all get mentioned when talk turns to a party leadership race.

But they appear to all be hamstrung by the fallout over the HST, and even if the public grudgingly accepts the tax, I’m not sure they’re going to forgive the politicians responsible for it.

Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts is also talked about as leadership material, and certainly the fact she’s not “one of them” puts her in good stead. But her inexperience at the provincial level may create enough doubts to nix a winning candidacy.

This brings us back to Carole Taylor.

She hasn’t actually said she’d even be interested in taking the job, but that’s to be the expected response as long as Campbell is still the boss.

And with Campbell likely to remain leader for another year or so, it

is premature for the B.C. Liberals to allow any public speculation by their own people on the leadership issue.

But privately, you know they’re all thinking about it. And if they want to survive, they had better have a game plan.

It appears the best such plan would see all those leader wannabes check their egos at the door and allow Taylor to win by acclamation.

That could set up an historic fight in 2013: Carole versus Carole. Not only would that guarantee an elected female premier in this province for the first time ever, but it would likely ensure this province sticks close to the political centre.

Discovery Day at Deer Lake this Sunday

Discovering the arts:

A visitor tries out pottery making during a demonstration at last year’s Discovery Day festival at Deer Lake Park. This year’s edition of the festival is set for Sunday, July 18, running from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. It features family activities, arts and crafts, entertainment and more.

Festival includes opening of new Spirit Square and unveiling of sculpture Janaya Fuller-Evans staff reporter

Come and discover Burnaby at the city’s largest outdoor festival this weekend.

The Discovery Day Festival takes place at Deer Lake Park on Sunday afternoon. It will be the official opening of the newly renovated festival space at Deer Lake.

The event includes the official opening of the city’s Spirit Square, in front of the Shadbolt Centre for the Arts, and the unveiling of Vitality, a sculpture commissioned from Coast Salish artist Thomas Cannell.

The piece, part of the Lower Mainland public art Necklace Project, is representative of a family journey, according to the artist.

There will also be performances for adults and children alike, and arts and crafts make and take projects for the kids.

“We have a very exciting schedule this year,” said Julie-Anne Slade, special events officer for the city.

There is a discovery zone for kids, with a climbing wall, mini-golf, lantern making and circus fun with juggling workshops and stilt walking.

There will be various performances for the children on the Discovery Stage, including performances of Chroma by the Burnaby Summer Theatre.

DISCOVER IT Chroma, a world of colour, is under attack by The Shade, played What: Discovery Day by Alex Rose, who consumes all the festival, with a day of colours and keeps them in his well family activities, arts of darkness.

There are also performances taking place in the studio theatre in the Shadbolt throughout the day.

The Discovery Day festival started 26 years ago as an environmental initiative between the Greater Vancouver Regional District (now Metro Vancouver) and Burnaby’s parks, recreation and culture department, according to Denis Nokony, assistant director of cultural services.

The first Discovery Days took place near Burnaby Lake, moving to Deer Lake Park and becoming more artsoriented once the GVRD stopped being involved, according to Nokony.

“Over the years it morphed into a much larger event,” he said.

The festival gives Burnaby groups the opportunity to showcase their activities and wares to the public, he added.

“It provides a needed community fair,” Nokony said, adding the cost of exhibiting at the event is subsidized.

In the past, the event has been tied into the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra’s Symphony in the Park, which took place last weekend.

But this year the city decided to separate the two events, Nokony said.

“The demographics are a little different,” he explained, adding the festival is more of a family event. “There’s an emphasis on family fun.”

Discovery Day goes from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Sunday, July 18, at Deer Lake Park. Admission is free, but parking is very limited, so those wishing to attend should make alternate transportation plans if possible.

The Spirit Square opening ceremony will take place from 1 to 1:40 p.m.

HEALTH

Young, chronic pot smokers more at risk Jennifer Moreau staff reporter

A Simon Fraser University professor is recommending Canada ditch the one-size-fits-all approach to managing health problems associated with marijuana use.

New research led by SFU’s Benedikt Fischer argues that universal prohibition is ineffective and should be replaced with a public health framework that includes interventions targeted at a minority of early and high-frequency users who face the greatest health risks.

Fischer and his team of researchers investigated more than 1,300 pot users in Canada and identified

four classes based on using frequency, age when they started and reason for using pot – either social or medical.

They found that those who started using pot earlier on, at age 15 or younger, who smoked nearly every day, were more likely than the others to face health risks.

“This group was disproportionately linked to key harms, including using other illicit drugs, driving while intoxicated, substance abuse problems and medical issues,” Fischer said in a press release.

“While most cannabis users in Canada use the drug infrequently and presumably without major health risks, it’s apparent that

public health concerns rise across the identified user classes. There is therefore a pressing need to target interventions at this subpopulation of users.”

Fischer recommends health-focused educational initiatives aimed at schoolaged children, effective monitoring strategies to identify young high-risk users and guidelines for lower-risk cannabis use, similar to what’s already in place for alcohol. He also wants new or more accessible treatment options and a selective application of laws aimed at cannabis use.

Fischer’s study was published in the International Journal of Methods in Psychiatric Research.

City has surplus funds from 2009 The city’s finance department has reported a $5,614 surplus in 2009’s operating funds.

The library had a surplus of $407,633, which has been carried forward to cover the library’s 2010 budgetary needs, as per the Library Act.

The waterworks utility had a surplus of $2.049 million, and the sanitary sewer funding surplus was $1.216 million.

The utilities surplus is being retained in the respective funds, according to the finance department’s report.

Latin style: Jaquelin Gutierrez owns Moda Curuba, which recently opened in Lougheed Town Centre. Gutierrez fled her home in Colombia after she received death threats and came to Canada five years ago. The former nurse runs the colourful clothing store.

Shop owner survived death threats

Moda Curuba owner fled Colombia to save her life but brought Latin flavour with her Janaya Fuller-Evans staff reporter

Tucked away in a corner of Lougheed Town Centre is a small Latin-Canadian clothing boutique.

Moda Curuba is just steps away from the entrance to Wal-Mart. The clothing store is a blast of colour and warmth next

to the Old Dutch Bakery.

Bright summer blouses, plaid dress shirts, jeans, bags, lingerie, shoes and jewelry festoon the walls and shelves of the cramped space, watched over by owner Jaquelin Gutierrez.

Gutierrez opened the shop just one month ago.

Moda Curuba carries a “different, unique style of clothing,” Gutierrez says.

“Nobody has it.”

The clothing is colourful and daring.

“People is going to look more sexy,” she says of her customers.

Her clothes come from Los Angeles, Brazil, Panama and Colombia, she says, adding that the jeans are specially designed in the Latin American style, to lift and shape the backside.

The modest shop, and Gutierrez’s life, is very different from her life in Colombia.

Gutierrez, who immigrated to B.C. five years ago, was a nurse who managed clinics throughout the country, spending most of her time in the capital, Bogotá.

But she had to flee with her husband and two daughters when FARC (the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia)

guerrillas threatened her life.

A decade ago, Gutierrez discovered people in the company she was working for were stealing antibiotics and giving them to FARC. She reported it and received threatening phone calls.

“I refused to give in,” Gutierrez says.

The scenario was evocative of her father’s experience as a politician.

Gutierrez’s father, who was once mayor of Florencia, in the Caqueta region of Colombia, found that some of his Survivor Page 12

It’s CSI Burnaby at BCIT Camp introduces high school students to forensic science techniques Janaya Fuller-Evans

staff reporter

Most kids come back to school in September to pen their “What I did on my summer vacation” essay and write about video games, bike rides and family trips.

But 16 Lower Mainland high school students will have a chance to describe the grisly crime scene and the murder they solved instead.

The British Columbia Institute of Technology held its annual CSI Burnaby summer camp this past week, training students from Grade 10 up to those who graduated this year, in forensic science.

The program is so popular that

camp manager Steen Hartsen has been contacted by people outside the Lower Mainland who want to send their kids, as well as people up to 40 years old.

“We have to tell them we don’t take anyone older than a Grade 12 grad,” he said, laughing.

The camp also can’t take anyone who can’t return home at night, as there aren’t accommodations available, Hartsen added.

Each of the 16 participants had to submit a 200-word essay explaining why they were interested in the camp, Hartsen said.

The camp teaches students fingerprinting, crime scene analysis, forensic photography, and forensic video and surveillance analysis, as well as the importance of DNA evidence.

At the end of the week, students had to don forensic suits and go over a crime scene, gathering, processing

and analyzing evidence to solve a simulated murder.

“It’s a lot of fun,” Hartsen said.

“We try to have a good time as well.”

He shows the students episodes of CSI, the crime scene investigation TV show, at lunchtime, and experts from the field come in and explain how the work is different from the show, he said.

One of the most interesting things the participants learn is how to decipher clues from knots.

“A knot can say a lot about the person who tied it, Hartsen explained.

The camp was held previously for a few years, and started up again last year, he said.

About 80 per cent of participants go into related fields, such as forensic science or law enforcement, according to Hartsen. jfuller-evans@burnabynow.com

Today, knowledge of a chronic condition can mobilize the individual into seizing control of their own health and engaging with the health-care providers ready to work with them to optimize their health.

We may passively accept a self-conception perpetuated by others, those who have adopted a position of dominance, control or abuse over us. We can feel stuck in a role of inferiority, subservience or

passivity. We may believe their put downs, labels and insults.

While self-esteem is associated with confidence and may be specific to particular skills, social situations or your stage of development, self-worth involves the core of your identity.

Self-worth is about feeling good about yourself, believing that you are deserving of happiness and love, living according to your highest val-

ues because you respect yourself, and being true to yourself, your feelings and your needs.

Our own behaviour can diminish our own sense of self-worth. In a vicious cycle, trapping us in a downward spiral of self-deprecation, past trauma and abuse fosters an impaired self-concept, and we live the role of one unworthy of respect and care, we abuse our bodies with drugs, alcohol, reckless behaviour, excess and

risky choices.

We may choose a lifestyle out of step with our deeper needs and values.

We may choose relationships that perpetuate our diminished role and are far less than what we deserve.

We may even reject love and happiness because we believe we do not deserve them.

TASTE

Cherries conjure up sweet summer memories ON COOKING

S

Chef Dez

ummer is a wonderful time of the year when it comes to the abundance of fresh fruit that is available, and cherries are one of my utmost favourites.

I believe that we all have some fond memory from our childhood of eating cherries in the hot summer sun; either raw and fresh by themselves or in a favourite family dessert.

The part of the world where cherries originated is very difficult to pinpoint, as they have supposedly been in existence since prehistoric times. Today, however, cherries are found all over the world.

Birds love cherries, and so it is believed that due to their migration habits, they were the factor most contributing to the spread of cherry trees.

We tend to see and consume only one or two varieties of sweet cherries that are sold in our markets and roadside stands. However, there are many different ones that are cultivated around the world. Cherries are divided into two classifications – sweet cherries and sour cherries. There

are more than 500 varieties of sweet cherries and more than 250 varieties of sour cherries worldwide.

Three examples of sweet cherries that would be the most familiar to us would be Gean, Bing and Bigaroon.

Gean cherries are the most common. They are either red or black and very sweet. Bing cherries have skins that are usually not as dark and their flesh is substantially more pale, but they tend to be juicer.

Bigaroons are somewhat heart-shaped and their firm flesh can either be red or yellow.

When buying cherries, make sure that they are fully ripe. Cherries do not ripen on their own after harvesting. Also make sure to buy cherries that still have their stems attached.

Cherries without stems tend to spoil faster as the stem cavity will expose a part of the inner flesh.

Cherries can be kept at room temperature, but as with most fruit, they will always deteriorate more slowly if kept in the refrigerator.

Cherries can be frozen whole or pitted, but freezing will affect their flavour quality and firmness.

Frozen cherries are best used for cooking.

Pitting cherries can be done with either a knife by cutting them in half, or with a cherry/olive pitter.

These manual mechanical

devices look almost like a pair of hand pliers. One end has a round compartment which holds the cherry or olive, while the other end is equipped with a spike that inserts into the flesh to push the pit through the opposite end.

Cherries jubilee is probably the most famous cherry recipe. It is recipe that consists of soaking cherries in a cherry liqueur, cooking them in a sugar syrup and igniting them with brandy. They are boiled down until the sauce thickens. More cherry liqueur can be added at this point, and then served over ice cream or cake.

One of my favourite childhood recipes is one that my mother made for our family every cherry season. She calls it “cherry soup.” It is whole cherries cooked in a sweet, red cherry broth with curds made out of flour. It may sound odd, but it is very delicious and can be served either hot or chilled.

Dear Chef Dez: I just recently bought a whole case of cherries because they were on sale for a great price. What are some ideas that I can do with them other than making jam?

Ron S. Abbotsford, B.C. Dear Ron: There are many great ways to serve cherries.

They add a great contrast-

ing colour and flavour to green salads and are also delicious in custards, sorbets, ice cream, fruit salads and pies. Black forest cake is another famous dessert with cherries. You can also

try making cherry wine or macerating them in vodka to make your own cherry liqueur. Try searching the Internet or the library, and I am sure you will come up with many great recipes

for serving and preserving cherries. ◆ Send your food/cooking questions to dez@chef dez. com. Visit his website at www.chefdez.com.

Coquitlam stepped back on the podium at the 25th annual Jack Crosby novice memorial all-star lacrosse tournament in Burnaby.

The Coquitlam gold team outscored Ontario’s Oakville Hawks 10-7 in an entertaining gold-medal final in the advanced division at the Bill Copeland Sports Centre Sunday.

Eric Bouma scored four goals, including the first of three third-period goals that iced the association’s first win since 2006. Daniel Miller potted the gamewinner for the gold, capping a three-goal surge in the opening minutes of the third period.

Oakville, a winner of the intermediate division at the Crosby tourney in 2008, got goals from six individual players, including team MVP Connor Pickford who potted a pair of counters in the final frame.

Daniel Sudiro tallied a hat trick for the winners. Gabriel Procyk, with a goal and one assist, was Coquitlam’s MVP in the gold-medal final.

The Burnaby Lakers went down with a lot of fight in them.

After a dispiriting 18-6 loss in the opening game of the playoffs, the junior A Lakers gave a last glimpse of the playoff prowess that inspired a generation of lacrosse players in Burnaby.

The Lakers lost the best-of-three B.C. Junior Lacrosse League playoff series to the Delta Islanders in straight games, falling 9-7 at the Bill Copeland Sports Centre Sunday.

But it was not a gentle sendoff by the former 13-time Minto Cup finalists.

Jackson Decker, who played the playoff of his life last season, forcing a fifth and final game against the eventual champion Coquitlam, led the Lakers again

Golf Burnaby golfburnaby.net

Junior girls win silver at provincials

in a desperate attempt to force a deciding game.

The clever right-hander scored four goals and helped out on a fifth to lead all scorers, but it proved not enough despite a wide disparity in shots in Burnaby’s favour.

The Lakers outshot the Islanders 56-35, but Delta keeper Zack Boychuck stopped 49 of them to stymie the comeback.

“It’s just disappointing leaving the playoffs in the first round. Last year was way more fun, challenging the No. 1 team,” said Decker, who has one more season ahead of him in Burnaby.

“It’s tough having a lot of changes in the dressing room. We all knew we had to step up and take the roles on.”

But while the Lakers defence gave a better account of itself in game 2, the goalkeeping and lack

of supplemental scoring proved the difference.

Decker accounted for more than half of the team’s goals in Burnaby’s two-game post season.

Decker said the team wanted to show that it was still a force despite the loss of three of its top players at the trade deadline.

Sadly, the playoffs proved otherwise.

Burnaby opened the playoffs with a whimper, falling 18-6 to the Islanders in Delta Saturday.

Decker led the club with a hat trick in an otherwise lacklustre start to the post season.

Delta scored six times in the first period, including four in a row in a two-minute span, to take the lead for good. The Islanders then opened the middle frame with a 7-1 run that put the game well out of reach.

Blake Duncan got the win in

goal for the Islanders, stopping 34 shots.

Patrick Bayliss was chased from the net by the Delta shooters for a second straight game and was replaced by Devon Winters.

Chase Clark added four assists for Burnaby, while Blake Mattinson chipped in with a goal and two helpers.

Three individual Delta players scored hat tricks for the winners.

“Still, even now, I think the Lakers are one of the strongest playoff teams. It felt good on the floor, but it did not go our way at the end,” Decker said, adding he is hopeful for next season. “I just want my last year to be a good year. I know I’ll be giving it my all.”

Nanaimo and Victoria played Tuesday (after NOW deadlines).

If necessary, a Game 3 will be played on Thursday.

The defending provincial and league junior girls’ lacrosse champions were a goal away from a double.

The Burnaby Lakers finished a roller-coaster provincial tournament with a 7-6 loss to Nanaimo in the gold-medal match in Port Moody Sunday.

Burnaby came back from a 10-1 shellacking by New Westminster to knock the pool winner into the consolation bracket with an avenging 8-3 win in the semifinals on Saturday.

Ivana Bilic was a dominting factor in both games.

She was later named to the all-tournament junior team “(Bilic) was just a killer in that (final) game. If she didn’t score five or six goals, I’d be surprised,” said head coach Kim Adlington.

Defender Montana Adlington, goalie Nicole Kelly, Jessica Yi and Courtney Rushworth were also key contributors.

The Burnaby peewee girls had to settle for a fourth-place finish following a 9-6 loss to Coquitlam in the consolation final at the provincials.

Carly Spagnuolo picked up her second game star of the provincials in the bronze-medal match.

Sarah Kuhn, Fair Play winner Lizzie Morrison, Kayla Chua and provincial all-starNicoleComack,with three goals in Burnaby’s 81 win over Nanaimo, were also named game stars.

The peewees upset league runner-up Port Coquitlam for a berth into the provincials.

“It’s credible and commendable, but you want to have something tangible at the end of a tournament,” said Burnaby peewee head coach Paul Kuhn.

The Burnaby bantam team also finished in fourth place after losing to Ridge Meadows 8-3 in the bronzemedal final.

Jolene Robinson was named to the all-bantam team, while Cassidy Ring won the Fair Play award.

WLA LACROSSE

Lakers playoff hopes axed by Timbermen?

Tom Berridge

sports editor

The Burnaby Lakers may have just cooked their proverbial goose in the Western Lacrosse Association.

The senior A Lakers dropped a pair of key backto-back contests against former fellow cellar-dweller Nanaimo Timbermen last week.

Burnaby was unlucky to come away without at least a point at the Bill Copeland Sports Centre Friday, following a 9-8 loss to the T-Men at home. They then lost a 13-10 decision the following night in Nanaimo.

The two losses left the Lakers alone in last place in the league basement two points behind but with two games in hand on the Langley Thunder.

The twin defeats also mean Burnaby would now have to finish higher than Nanaimo in the final league standings to earn a possible top-four playoff spot.

That poses big problems for the 4-8 club, which faces the top three clubs, New Westminster, Victoria and Coquitlam, in five of its last six regular season games.

“We control what we do now,” said Lakers head coach Bob Johnston after Friday nights defeat. “This is our playoff, right now.”

On Friday, Burnaby plays host to the firstplace New Westminster Salmonbellies at the Bill Copeland centre.

The Lakers then travel back to Nanaimo to finish up their three-game season series against the T-men on Sunday.

Last Friday, Burnaby held a three-goal advantage at one point in both the first and second periods, but failed to hold onto them.

Third-star Calvin Craig and Dane Stevens were silenced in the final frame after posting a hat trick and a five-point night, including a pair of goals, respectively.

Perennial Nanaimo first star Lewis Ratcliff led the Timbermen rally, tying the contest 7-7 with his hattrick goal on a nifty baseline move.

Lakers transition runner Cam Bergman got that goal back on a breakaway pass from Eric Sage, burying his hard shot past Nanaimo keeper Matt King.

But Ratcliff potted a pair of goals in the final minute of play, scoring first with King on the bench for a sixth attacker and then stealing a victory for the visitors with a goal off a Burnaby turnover at midfloor with just 17 seconds left.

“We broke down there late in the game,” said Johnston. “We had a couple of chances to get two goals ahead, but we didn’t get it.”

With the score tied 8-8, a pass upfloor from Bergman to Chris Manwaring that led to the last-second turnover probably shouldn’t have been made, Johnston added.

“That was effort, trying to make a play, and unfortunately it wasn’t the play.

It wasn’t a clear chance.”

The Lakers had a second opportunity in Nanaimo on Saturday but swapped seven-goal periods in the first two stanzas, before winding up on the short end of a 13-10 decision.

Neil Tyacke stopped 34 shots, while Cam Sedgwick led Burnaby with a fivepoint night. Scott Tinning also added a hat trick.

Scott Ranger was the big gun for Nanaimo with three

Crosby: It’s still an emotional time, says son continued from page 21

Laker Steve Govett, easily won the tier 1 gold 18-3 over PoCo in the final game. Saanich finished with the bronze.

In the tier 2 bracket, Burnaby 1 lost the bronze medal 6-4 to Kamloops.

Shea Janke and Cole Malmquist both scored a pair of goals for the home association.

Burnaby advanced to the semifinals against eventual champion Cowichan Valley with a 7-6 win in overtime over

Saanich. Malmquist, with three goals, and tier 2 allstar Devin Prasad, with a pair, did most of the scoring.

Burnaby goalie Braeden O’Hanley was also named an all-star.

Cowichan defeated New Westminster 10-4 in the final game. All-star Colton McKenzie tallied a hat trick for the silver medallists.

The novice Salmonbellies edged Kamloops 3-2 in the semifinal game on goals by Liam Van Kalsbeek, Max Sverdrup

and Hunter Moe. In the novice girls’ division at the Crosby memorial, pool winner Burnaby fell out of the medals following a 7-3 loss to Coquitlam in the bronze final. Nicole Kuhn led the hosts with one goal and one assist.

The girls, 3-0 in pool play, lost in the semifinals to the eventual gold medallists Port Coquitlam 7-6 in sudden-death overtime.

Game stars for Burnaby included Kaylee Colville, Emma Reagan, Lauren Comack, Jaime Richards

and Gigi Janes.

Colville, a New Westminster pickup by Burnaby, was chosen to the girls’ all-star team.

Although this was the third all-star tournament since Jack Crosby’s passing in January of 2008, it’s still an emotional and exciting time, said son Mike Crosby after the event.

“It’s about the kids,” Crosby said.

“To see this tournament to be as successful as it is makes those feelings go away, replacing the tears with the smiles.”

Builder newly named to lax hall of fame Bob Stewart of Burnaby was one of nine new members named to the Canadian Lacrosse Hall of Fame Thursday.

Stewart, who is better known in recent decades for his work with the New Westminster Salmonbellies organization, was named as a builder along with Terry Lloyd of Oshawa, Ont. Stewart devoted more than 60 years to the game as a player, coach, general manager and administrator.

As a player, Stewart began in North Burnaby in 1947 and later shared in three provincial champi-

onships and two Minto Cups in 1954 and ‘56 with the PNE Indians and Mount Pleasant Legion junior teams.

He later coached in South Burnaby in the 1970s.

Stewart returned to lacrosse in 1986 as the GM of the junior Salmonbellies, a post he held until 1992.

He then took over the GM job with the senior A ‘Bellies, which lasted for the next four seasons.

Stewart has remained active in the Salmonbellies executive to this present day.

Also earning induction in the play-

er category is current Salmonbellies assistant GM Ken Thomas.

Thomas spent two of his 13 seasons in the Western Lacrosse Association with the Burnaby Lakers.

Joining Thomas in the box player category was Tyson Leies of Victoria and Ken Webb of Surrey in the veterans’ category.

The formal induction banquet and ceremony will take place at the Firefighters’ Club in Metrotown on Nov. 13.

Hall of fame dinner tickets may be purchased by calling Sohen Gill at 604-421-9755, ext. 5.
