◗ ACCESSIBILITY

Curbed in the city

BY THERESA MCMANUS REPORTER tmcmanus@royalcityrecord.com

Basil Fitze views the Royal City’s sidewalks in a new way now that’s he’s getting around town in a wheelchair.

For the past year or so, Fitze has been getting around in a power chair because of a variety of health issues. It’s opened his eyes to some of the issues faced by people using mobility aids such as wheelchairs and scooters.

“In parts of New Westminster, some of the sidewalks are just terrible,” he said.

“There are some places that look like they have never been touched.”

Fitze suspects he’s not alone in having trouble navigating through parts of the city.

He said people notice the “little things” when they’re in a wheelchair, things they wouldn’t necessarily notice if they were walking.

“Walking everywhere is fine. In a power chair or a scooter or a manual wheelchair, there are some areas that are aren’t manoeuverable,” he said. “I do feel there are areas that need to be adjusted. It is frightful.”

In addition to cracked sidewalks, Fitze ◗Curbed Page 3

Pier park site cleanup costs may triple

BY THERESA MCMANUS REPORTER tmcmanus@royalcityrecord.com

Cleaning up a contaminated site doesn’t come cheap.

Although the City of New Westminster had originally anticipated it would cost $1.5 million to deal with contamination issues at the Westminster Pier Park site, it’s likely those costs could reach $5 million. Work on Westminster Pier Park continues, with pile driving expected to wrap up in April and construction of the park set to begin soon.

“The project is proceeding well. We are on time and on budget,” said Jim Lowrie, the city’s director of engineering. “The

community is going to see a tremendous asset on the Fraser River come this fall.”

The City of New Westminster purchased the waterfront site for $8 million, and the city, the province and the federal governments each contributed $8.3 million toward the park’s construction. Located on the waterfront between Sixth and Elliott streets, the site was used for coal storage warehouses, industrial equipment operations, industrial machine shops, marine works, foundries or metal scrap melting, coal-fired power generation, marine and automobile fuelling and land filling on the site.

Those industrial uses prompted the previous owner to commission two site inves-

ly,” Lowrie said. “It was a very small corner of the site, about the size of one small city lot. It is excessively deep. The reality is it seems to be coming from offsite.”

A staff report stated the contaminated groundwater is restricted to an area that’s about 350 square metres, with the highest concentration being located just north of the city’s site, within the railway corridor.

The contaminants, which are chlorinated solvents, were found mostly at a depth of 40 to 50 feet.

“While the contaminants are considered to be relatively static, a sub-surface

tigations and the city to commission its own detailed site investigation.

“The reality is we got an excellent deal for the property,” Lowrie said. “It had an assessed value of $16 million. We bought it for $8 million.”

Lowrie said the city paid about the same for the property in 2009 that the owner had bought it for years earlier.

Having finished cleanup of the site’s contaminated soil, the city is now addressing issues relating to contaminated groundwater on a small section of the site.

“We did do an investigation study. It was based on representative samples of the groundwater. This was not found original-

Reaching new heights

The newest vehicle in New Westminster Fire and Rescue Service’s fleet is preparing to hit the streets.

Training is underway at the Queensborough fire hall to prepare firefighters to drive and operate the new truck that includes a 100-foot aerial platform. Firefighters have to learn about the basic setup and operations of the platform.

“Each apparatus is different,” said Fire Chief Tim Armstrong. “Everyone is quite excited about it. It is really going to shape the future of the fleet and give a new look to the department.”

In addition to learning how to use the new platform, firefighters will learn to drive the new truck, which is a bit bigger than the ladder truck it’s replacing.

“We are planning to put it into service mid-March. It’s just For video coverage of this story, go to a matter of getting all www.royalcityrecord.com four shifts trained, the drivers trained,” Armstrong said. “It’s a little bigger than the other one. Not that these guys aren’t used to driving big vehicles. It’s like anything – it takes a while to get the feel.”

The new truck includes a pumper and aerial platform combination, which will give the fire department more versatility for responding to emergencies.

“We are adding a five-inch supply hose to it.

The actual aerial platform has a dual monitor up top,” said Deputy Chief Brent Wisheart. “It has two nozzles from one supply line up the ladder.”

That means firefighters can use one hose to fight a fire and the other to spray water on other nearby buildings that may be at risk of catching on fire, something the fire department has never been able to do before.

“It is a huge benefit,” Wisheart said.

The vehicle arrived from the Pierce manufacturing plant in Wisconsin in late December.

“They have been working on it, installing the equipment,” Wisheart said. “Once it gets here, there is quite a big of work to do.”

is also concerned that some streets still don’t have curb cuts – the dips from the sidewalk to the roadway.

“Because I have been in it for a year, I am trying to get people to understand. It is an issue,” he said. “You need ramps if you are in a chair or scooter. What about the people who have baby carriages?”

When no curb cuts are available, Fitze said he has to wait until he reaches a driveway – and then he must ride on the street.

“If there is no ramp, how do you get around?” he said about the curb cuts. “It’s little things that you don’t notice – if you are in a power chair or a scooter, you will.

When you are walking you don’t see the reason for a ramp.”

Fitze used to live in New Westminster when he was able to walk everywhere, but recently moved back to the city.

“Now that I am in a power chair, I notice it’s not the same,” he said. “Some of the streets are not manoeuvrable.”

Fitze has taken three tumbles out of his wheelchair, twice in New Westminster and once in Surrey. Just before Christmas, he fell while going past Moody Park on Eighth Street.

“I lay there for four or five minutes. A mom, a dad and a child walked right past me,” he said. “They didn’t bother to help me.”

The chair of the city’s special service and access committee couldn’t be reached for comment before The Record’s deadline.

Royal City residents will get a chance to have a say on whether the city should cover some of council members’ child care expenses.

Council’s annual remuneration for 2011 has been adjusted in keeping with a city policy that adjusts the pay annually using the Consumer Price Index.

The adjustment, which doesn’t require a public process until a full review of the rates is done in 2012, will see the mayor’s pay increase from $86,878 in 2010 to $88,615 in 2011 and councillors’ pay rise from $34,089 in 2010 to $34,771 in 2011.

A proposal to ◗OUR VIEW reimburse council members for Is this going too some child-care far in a city that’s expenses does, building a reputation however, require for its progressive a public propolicies? cess at this time.

People can speak See page 6 to the proposal at the March 14 city council meeting.

The proposal would see councillors reimbursed for the actual cost of babysitting or child minding, to a maximum of $40 a day, while they’re attending an event or official function.

“It is anticipated the financial impact of a child-care expense reimbursement would be less than $500 per year,” said the staff report. “The provision of a child-care expense reimbursement assists citizens who choose to run for public office with expenses acquired in the performance of their duties.”

Coun. Jaimie McEvoy said he proposed the idea after attending conferences on the city’s behalf and finding he was one of the youngest people in the room. While council members receive a stipend that’s intended to compensate them for costs of the jobs, such as transportation, he believes it’s unfair to expect council members with children to pay an additional cost for child care so they can do the job they were elected to do.

Mayor Wayne Wright hopes residents will come forward and make their thoughts known. So far, he’s only heard ◗Child care Page 9

Nestle helped pay for parent’s legal opinion on water conflict

BY ALFIE LAU REPORTER alau@royalcityrecord.com

Local parent Patrick O’Connor solicited and received a contribution from Nestle Waters Canada that helped him get a legal opinion that school trustee Lori Watt was in a potential conflict of interest situation on two matters: the approval of a new collective agreement with CUPE Local 409 and a motion to ban bottled water in school district facilities.

“We were one of the contributors,” confirmed John B. Challinor II, director of corporate affairs for Nestle Waters Canada on Friday morning. “Patrick came to us in late 2010 or early 2011.

“The reality is getting a legal opinion is not inexpensive. It requires more resources than an individual usually has.”

are arrangements determined by those companies.

The plan to have taxpayer funds pay for city councillors’ child-care expenses is quite different. Political “jobs” are not the same as jobs in the employment market. In fact, other than the mayor’s position, city councillors have no defined work shifts or hours. Of course, there are expectations, and when someone is filling in for the mayor, one must be there for the ribbon-cutting or official event.

But to expect taxpayers to shell out for child-care expenses for city councillors is

a bit much.

Will, as McEvoy suggests, providing child-care expenses encourage more people to run for office? We don’t think so. Will it give the city another “first” designation in its continuing role as a progressive city government? Yes, it probably would. Will taxpayers see the city as a leader in family issues if it passes this plan? We don’t think so.

In fact, this will probably be interpreted as yet another way in which the political class is out of touch with real people.

It’s a well meaning plan – but dumb.

IN MY OPINION

School board made right choice

Dear Editor:

Contrary to the views expressed by Matthew Laird (Enough with the politicking, Letters to the editor, The Record, March 9) and others, the New Westminster school board is to be commended for putting students and staff first in their decision to maintain choice in drinking water options at New Westminster schools.

The board is also to be commended for their commitment to install and upgrade water refilling stations.

Although it is clear from recent discussions that water is an issue with many complex aspects, it is also clear that the health and well-being of New Westminster students and staff were being placed on the backburner by those pushing a special interest agenda to have bottled water banned.

The fact that most school boards have rejected calls for banning bottled water wherever this

issue has been raised demonstrates that these other school boards did not buy into the special interest agenda that was being pushed on them either. They, too, gave primary consideration to the health and well-being of students and staff and opted to make choices available.

In this regard, the New Westminster board is to be commended for heeding the advice of the medical health officer, Dr. Nadine Loewen, who recommended, from a health perspective, that “it might be preferable to keep the healthiest beverages (i.e., water) available, both free and for payment, in numerous locations and to reserve the phase-out of single serving water beverages as the last phase of a beverage waste-reduction initiative,” one that would include phasing out “single-serving sweetened or caffeinated drinks as a first step.”

We live in a diverse society that values choice and respects differences of opinion by providing people with options.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Decision was ‘thoughtful’ ◗ continued from page 6

No one is infringing on anyone’s choice to drink tap water by also making bottled water available. Likewise, in a diverse society, those who make a choice to drink bottled water should not have their choice infringed upon by those who would dictate otherwise.

Kudos to the board for making a balanced and thoughtful decision in this matter.

Neil Powell, president, Voice New Westminster

Power is not so ‘green’ Dear Editor:

Premier Gordon Campbell’s dream of “Green Power” to generate both B.C.’s electricity needs and private corporations’ profits is now showing up as a nightmare for consumers faced with cost increases of more than 50 per cent over the next five years.

It really shouldn’t be a surprise to find that the run-of-river stampede by profiteers, welcomed by the B.C. Liberals, is more green with our money than with environmental protection.

In November of 2008, The Record published an opinion piece of mine warning about one of the major deals: the start of a

project in the Toba and Bute inlets area by Plutonic Power Corp. and U.S. corporate giant General Electric with a price tag of more than $4 billion.

I had a hunch that such players are not dedicated to simply serving the public, and would in fact expect us, the hapless consumers, to pay off their investment and provide a handsome, ongoing profit to boot. With Hydro forced to accept the runof-river power, and with huge rate increases coming, I think we’re well hooked.

As added insult, we have once wild, pristine rivers diverted, mechanized, roaded and powerlined, their fish and wildlife threatened and their beauty spoiled, just so we can pay much more for the current they produce than we paid under the Hydro dam system.

It fits well with the anti-environment attitude of the Campbell government since it took office in 2001. Since then the Liberals have cut the staff and budget of the environment ministry in half, done nothing to stem the exporting of raw logs, chopped provincial park funding and voted against the federal bill to stop proliferation of oil tanker traffic on our north coast.

Our next political leaders must bring in radical changes or we will have to rely on lucky visits to the ballooning gambling palaces to pay our bills.

Kindness: Simple act changed a day ◗ continued from page 6

sweaters, my self-inflicted guilt combined with the pain, had left me in an emotional state.

It was while absentmindedly perusing handbags that this “teen angel” approached me. Towering over me with blonde wavy hair and a smile brilliant with genuinuity and train tracks, she said “I’m doing a random act of kindness and want to give you this.”

I looked down at the Tim Hortons envelope she had handed me and then thanked her graciously, telling her her gift was very sweet. What a nice thing, to give a stranger a free coffee!

Still stunned by the girl, her gift, and the utter generosity of some people, I was unable to say more and we parted.

A few minutes later, after collecting myself, I sought her out and told her that I’d had a very rough day and that what she did had really helped to make me feel better. The woman beside her, perhaps her mother, smiled the smile of a parent who feels she has

done well.

Not until I got home did I open the envelope and find that the teen angel had not given me a coffee coupon, but a $20 gift card.

It was then that the tears started to roll.

She could not have known anything about my life, about the years of health/medical/financial struggle and the emotional tax that results. I try my hardest to appear healthy, though thinness and winter baby-stepping often give me away.

She could not have known that I cry watching the news but do not feel that I can express my personal frustrations in such a healthy fashion.

She could not have known that my goal is to work with at-risk teens, that I feel teens are an incredibly insightful, powerful, yet far too often disregarded group.

She could not have known how deeply that random act of kindness would affect, touch and warm me. What possessed her to give such a gift to a

stranger, I will never know and do not care to speculate.

On the front of the envelope “Have a good day” is scrawled in that youthful penmanship that shows the writer still cares about legibility.

Until I met my “teen angel,” my day had been a slowly progressing nightmare, feeling like I was walking atop fire pokers on frostbitten feet. Being the recipient of a random act of kindness did not alleviate my pain, of course, but it took me to a better place – one of hope, love, gratefulness and calm. She took me out of the isolating world of my pain, and dropped me back into the “real world,” where my energies could be focused on others, my mind energized by worthwhile activities, where I could be proactive instead of letting fear prevent me from life.

I will cherish and carry this envelope always as a reminder of the goodness of people and of the profound effect that kindness can have.

Child care: Councillors’ expenses could be covered by taxpayers ◗ continued from page 3

from people who oppose the policy.

“Now is the time to come forward,” he said.

Coun. Jonathan Cote is planning to excuse himself from the discussion on the matter, as he’s the only current council member who has young children.

“It was not a policy I initiated, nor do I think it is one I am going to use,” he said. “It’s put me in an awkward position. I think it is good if I excuse myself.”

Cote said he’s been fortunate to have a supportive family to help with child care when he’s doing council work. He said he understands McEvoy’s motivation to seek ways of removing

R O Y A L

barriers that may be in place that discourage people from running for council.

Cote said he’s received a few e-mails on the issue and heard a few comments from people on the street.

“Generally, it has not been positive,” he said.

Cote noted that one misconception that he’s heard a number of times is that this policy would cover regular child care, which is incorrect as it wouldn’t cover a council member’s regular daycare costs.

A staff report said the city has reviewed child-care expense reimbursements that are offered in other Lower Mainland municipalities and asked staff to develop a policy similar

C I T Y

M U S I C A L

to what’s offered by the Corporation of Delta.

The city could cover costs for events such as the annual conventions put on by the Federation of Canadian Municipalities, the Union of B.C. Municipalities and the Lower Mainland Local Government Association, as well as any other local government related conventions, conferences, courses or seminars that are approved by council in advance. It would also apply to “official functions,” which would be any function where municipal business is carried out or where municipal representation is required, including committees and boards outside the city.

O’Connor: Asked others for contributions ◗ continued from page 5

about taking Nestle’s contribution.

“A legal opinion isn’t inexpensive,” said O’Connor. “It’s not something I was personally able to pay for myself.”

O’Connor said he approached many other possible contributors and he did receive other contributions, with the contributors all indicating to him they wanted to remain confidential.

“It’s irrelevant to the facts of the matter who contributed,” said O’Connor.

The optics are Lori Watt is in a clear conflict of interest.”

After O’Connor got his legal opinion from Millen, Watt got a dissenting opinion from lawyer Jonathan Baker dated Feb. 4 that states: “In my opinion, a court would consider the relationship between your

position as a school trustee and either CUPE or COPE to not result in a conflict.

Any pecuniary interest would likely be considered by a court to be remote and insignificant.”

Watt confirmed with The Record on Friday morning that she paid for her legal opinion all by herself, even offering to send copies of the two cancelled personal cheques paying for the legal opinion.

“Nobody contributed to (paying) my legal opinion,” said Watt, who said she considered asking a family member to help but decided against that.

Baker’s opinion differs from Millen’s in the conclusions because, as Baker states, “the assumed facts are different.”

In particular, Baker said

that Watt’s “employment with CUPE is relatively low level and in no way related to the collective bargaining agreement.

Therefore in my opinion you are not in conflict of interest by virtue of that position under sections 55 or 56 of the Public School Act. “As a member of COPE there is no direct or indirect relationship to collective bargaining with the school board.

“You are not in a conflict over the bottled water issue.”

Baker’s opinion is based on 15 facts and assumptions that Watt provided him. www.twitter.com/AlfieLau For related stories and letters on this issue, go to www.royalcityrecord.com.

Tiny space: Briana Tomkinson shows off one of the $5 food sample products available at Tiny, a new store in the River Market that showcases locally produced and grown products. The store opened in late February and is building a following through social media.

Larry Wright/ THE RECORD

Tiny store with a big heart

Locally grown and produced products are on offer at new shop at River Market

BY ALFIE LAU REPORTER alau@royalcityrecord.com

The newest addition to the River Market at Westminster Quay is tiny in name but huge in its mission.

Briana Tomkinson, better known as the driving force behind the New Westminster blog Tenth To the Fraser, is helping with the launch of Tiny, a store that showcases locally grown and produced products in a “tiny” storefront that comes in at around 200 square feet.

“All of our products are locally made with love and centred around food and the foodie culture,” said Tomkinson, who works three days a week at the store that’s open Tuesday to Saturday.

Armed with her iPad and cellphone, Tomkinson is able to multitask as she tries to build the store’s website, www.tinygoods. ca, for a launch later this month.

Tomkinson said she was asked by the River Market’s Mark Shieh to lend her

expertise to Tiny, and soon she was working alongside Miranda McMurray, whose company Hudsonny “creates cute stuff for folks who like cute stuff.”

In fact, the only current non-food products in Tiny are Hudsonny products like the tooth fairy pillow and the yoo hoo bunny.

“In the future, I plan to add some arts and crafts,” said Tomkinson, “but right now, the focus is on food.”

And what a variety of locally produced foods is on display at Tiny.

Locally canned salmon sits alongside jams and nuts. And Tomkinson’s personal favourites come from Vancouver company Cocoa Nymph, which produces a variety of chocolate and sweet products.

“My favourite item is the neapolitan marshmallows,” said Tomkinson. “The chocolate is also great because they have unexpected combinations, like chocolate with toffee, coconut and raspberries.”

What makes Tiny even more appealing is most items are in $5 sample packs, meaning that if you have a craving, it won’t cost much to satisfy that itch.

The storefront was designed by Marianne Amodio, who also designed the neighbouring Great Wall of Tea. Amodio was able to

Curling to fight cancer AROUND TOWN

THERESA MCMANUS

T

he Royal City Curling Club is teaming up with Surrey resident Debbie Imada on a “bum” spiel aimed at sweeping away colon cancer.

The event is taking place on Saturday, March 19 from 3 to 9 p.m. at Royal City Curling Club at 75 East Sixth Ave. The event costs $25, which includes curling and dinner.

“I am a two-year colorectal cancer survivor,” said Imada. “That is why I am doing this.”

March is Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month in Canada.

Imada was diagnosed with Stage 3 colorectal cancer when she was 43.

In the following two years she underwent two surgeries, chemotherapy, radiation and dealt with side effects of chemotherapy that left her hands numb.

“It’s killing people unnecessarily,” she said

about colorectal cancer.

“This cancer has not been at the forefront because of the location of where it is.”

Having had hemorrhoids after her son was born, Imada thought they had returned. She asked her doctor about her rectal bleeding and found out she had a tumour.

“It means a lot to me to try and help others,” she said. “I would tell them, ‘ask your doctor for screening. It doesn’t matter how old you are.’”

It’s estimated 22,500 Canadians (12,400 men and 10,100 women) will be diagnosed with colorectal cancer this year and 9,100 (5,000 men and 4,100 women) will die from it.

“Prostate cancer just came out of the box. It’s time for colorectal cancer to move out,” she said.

“You can understand my passion. I want to shout it to the world. This doesn’t have to happen to you – talk to your doctor.”

The March 19 event is meant for curlers of all skill levels, including those who’ve never curled before.

The event also features raffles, 50-50 draws and door prizes.

Net proceeds will be donated to the Canadian

Cancer Society.

Lyon returns

Royal City resident Annabel Lyon has won prestigious writing awards and will now help select winning writers.

Lyon has been named a juror for this year’s Scotiabank Giller Prize, which is considered one of the world’s most prestigious English-language writing awards, and is worth $50,000. The other jurors this year are Howard Norman from the United States, and Andrew O’Hagan from Scotland.

A notice from the New Westminster Public Library noted that Lyon wrote much of her awardwinning The Golden Mean at the library.

She did a standingroom-only reading library last year.

“The Scotiabank Giller long list will be announced in September, and hopefully another Canadian writer can match Johanna Skibsud’s 2010 win for The Sentimentalist,” said the notice.

Explore the history of uptown OUR PAST

ARCHIE & DALE MILLER

U

ptown New Westminster has an interesting history that, for many, has disappeared under newer finishes or been replaced by new structures. Sometimes the old has just been covered up and, given an opportunity, comes to light again – if only for a short time.

A couple of examples of this occurred over 20 years ago during renovations on two buildings.

One was at the corner of Sixth and Sixth where Blenz Coffee is today.

The building was being renewed to house Fotofun Camera when the name “Davis the Druggist” appeared for a short time after some siding was removed.

The other was in the

mid-500 block of Sixth Street, across the street from today’s Westminster Centre – the name “Central Meat Market” reappeared.

For many people, the uptown area of this city was the Woodward’s department store that used to occupy much of the area now occupied by Royal City Centre.

This store opened in 1954 and dominated the neighbourhood for about four decades until it closed its doors.

Even though the store has been gone for many years, you will still hear people, for whom the department store was their primary reason for going uptown, say “I’m going to Woodward’s.”

Another prominent part of the story of uptown is the New Westminster Public Library. In 1958 the library opened up the hill from its previous downtown location. Twenty years later, in 1978, an expanded library reopened its doors to a greatly enlarged building that

closed off Ash Street where it met Sixth Avenue.

All this happened in the 1950s and led to an influx of shops and businesses in the area.

The uptown of New Westminster became a very busy place that attracted customers and employees to this active part of the city.

In time, more and more residents wanted to live where they were able to walk to stores, businesses, entertainment, library, a park, a seniors’ centre and available transportation,

out something in a photo and remarking on the Woodward’s corner, the Hollywood Hospital, or the aerial image of the site.

On Wednesday, March 16, an Historical Society presentation on the history of uptown will take place, starting at 7:30 p.m. in the auditorium of the New Westminster Public Library.

The story of uptown will come to life in words and pictures. Also watch for information on an uptown walking tour to be held in May.

and this led inevitably to the construction of multiple residential buildings which are now an integral part of the area.

A display of captioned photos recently opened at Westminster Centre has been drawing much attention as visitors to the exhibit either learn a few things about uptown’s history or see images that trigger their personal memories of the area.

Every day there are people standing in the hallway in which the display is located, pointing

Have fun with science

BY LYNNE CLOSE CONTRIBUTOR editorial@royalcityrecord.com

R

apunzel, Rapunzel, let down your hair – but if she had, would the hair have been long enough or strong enough for the prince to climb the tower?

A young scientist devised an experiment to test the myth, and became a semi-finalist in the contest sponsored by the B.C. government to mark the Year of Science. Check www.yearofsciencebc.ca for details of events promoting science and the contest, which invites students to propose an experiment that will prove or disprove some of the most enduring myths.

Lines between myth and folk and fairy tales can sometimes blur, but you can delve into wonderful science books at the library.

Mythbusters has been proving and disproving myths for years on the Discovery Channel; there are now two books detailing their meticulous work.

Both Mythbusters: The Explosive Truth Behind 30 of the Most Perplexing Urban Legends of All Time, by Keith and Kent Zimmerman, and Mythbusters: Don’t Try

This At Home, by Mary Packard, explain the careful preparation and, in some cases, extreme safety precautions taken before the experiment. For example, if you thought you could save yourself in a plummeting elevator by jumping as high as possible just before it hits bottom, don’t try it!

You can also investigate “fearsome facts and startling stats” filled with “peril, risk and suspense” in Danger! by Lucy Butler. Learn what is, arguably, the most dangerous mathematical formula in history and how to survive a shark attack.

The book is a wonderful browse with very accessible collage illustrations. It moves through the natural world to genetic manipulation to mad scientists, including Kevin Warwick who is working on interfacing his nervous system with the Internet.

The library will celebrate both mad science and spring break when Mad Science: Up, Up & Away takes the principles of air pressure to new heights on Tuesday, March 22 at 10:30 a.m.

It is aimed at children five to 10 years.

Join us and perhaps be motivated to prove that straw can be turned into gold.

Rude awakening for Hyack girls

BY TOM BERRIDGE SPORTS EDITOR tberridge@royalcityrecord.com

The New Westminster Hyack girls got a painful lesson on what it takes to win at the B.C. AAA high school basketball championships.

The junior-aged Hyacks were relegated to the consolation side of the provincial draw following a 70-44 opening-day loss to No. 5 South Kamloops at Capilano University on Wednesday.

South Kam, behind twin juniors Maya Olynyk and 6-5 post Emma Wolfram, overwhelmed the Burnaby/New Westminster champs 26-7 in the first quarter and led 41-12 at halftime.

New Westminster guard Ariana Sider tallied all but two of the team’s first-half points. “(South Kam) had the outside game and the inside game. They noticed how young we were,” said Hyacks head coach Doug Woodward. “Our guys didn’t see it coming.”

Woodward said nerves played a big part in the unreadiness of his young team. “(South Kam) saw our weaknesses and attacked them, that‘s what good teams do,” Woodward added. “They knew how nervous we were. Our shots weren’t even close.

“But we played the No. 5-ranked school in the province. They saw what good teams are like and how good we have to be.”

With the final outcome in little doubt, Woodward focused his players on just winning the second half, and they did that.

New Westminster scored 16 points in the third quarter and then

outpointed the Okanagan champions 16-11 in the final period.

Sider was named New West’s player of the game, finishing with a game-high 26 points, including sevenof-eight free throws.

“We wanted to win the second half and learn from our experience,” Woodward said.

“Whatever we get from here, we can learn for next year.”

In its early Thursday morning matchup with Vancouver Island runner-up Spectrum, New Westminster led 29-15 at the interval but came undone in the third quarter, shooting just 11 per cent from the floor.

At the other end of the court, Spectrum picked up its game, outscoring the Hyacks 27-5.

Sider again led all scorers with 20 points, including four three-pointers.

Grade 9 forward Amanda Zacharuk also had a strong outing for New West, scoring nine points, including a perfect three-for-three from the charity stripe and five rebounds.

Lauren Yearwood, a 6-2 Grade 8 post, led Spectrum with 15 points and a whopping 24 rebounds.

Marina Mew and junior Emma Cunningham also hit double figures for Spectrum, scoring 16 and 15 points, respectively.

New Westminster played Prince George on Friday (after Record deadlines).

New Westminster will play its final placement game at Windsor Secondary School on Saturday.

Field friends on watch lax list

New Westminster ’s senior class boosted Stony Brook University to a 13-7 win over Marist in NCAA Division I field lacrosse March 5.

Senior attack Jordan McBride scored four goals and added an assist, while midfielder Kevin Crowley had three goals to lead the No. 7-ranked Seawolves to the win.

McBride increased his career goal tally to 138, and is currently the leading active Div. I goal scorer in the nation.

Crowley’s 184th point inched him to within 19 points of breaking the school’s all-time points record of 201, set by Jason Cappadorro in 2006.

Both McBride and Crowley were also named to the Tewaarton Award watch list announced March 4 by the Greater Washington Sports Alliance.

Full steam ahead: New Westminster point guard Ariana Sider, with ball, blows by South Kamloops 6-5 post Emma Wolfram in an opening day loss at the B.C. AAA high school girls’ basketball championships at Capilano University Wednesday.

New Westminster ’s Kyle Turris scored a goal and assisted on another to garner the game’s first star for the Phoenix Coyotes in a 5-4 shootout victory over the Detroit Red Wings on Saturday.

Turris tallied his 11th marker of the season on a wrist shot late in the opening period to shave the deficit to 2-1. He also assisted on Ray Whitney’s goal to make the score 4-3.

Turris was held scoreless in Tuesday’s 4-3 overtime loss to the Vancouver Canucks.

Turris has 22 points to date and is a minus-one.

History has a message for 2011 hoop Rebels

BY TOM BERRIDGE SPORTS EDITOR tberridge@royalcityrecord.com

If the Burnaby South Rebels are to win a third B.C. AAA high school boys’ basketball title, they’ll have to do it as a team.

South earned the No. 1 preseason ranking and has held onto the top billing for almost the entire season, except for a brief hiccup following a thirdplace finish at the Legal Beagle tournament at Terry Fox school in January.

The Rebels were back on top in the poll after avenging an earlier loss to Kelowna at the

Western Canada tourney in early February.

But despite a 33-3 record, South will not be entering the 66th annual B.C. boys’ championships as the No. 1 seed.

South stumbled through Lower Mainland qualifying last week, coming back in the fourth quarter to get by Vancouver city champion Sir Charles Tupper in the semifinals.

They then were overwhelmed in the opening quarter of the Mainland final to eventual winner R.C. Palmer.

Both games showed the fundamental weaknesses of the star-

studded Burnaby high school hoop team.

“That’s the game,” said South head coach Greg Matic, after last Saturday’s 90-78 loss to Palmer in the Mainland championship final. “If we leave them open, they’ll make those shots.”

And that’s where a little high school basketball history might help.

Burnaby South has won a Lower Mainland boys’ title on six separate occasions but managed to parlay that into just two provincial championships – the first in 1953 and the last one in 1979.

Provincial all-star forward

Don Steen remembers the ‘53 Rebels well.

“It was an exciting year, one of the most exciting moments in sport for me, was that tournament,” said the B.C. Sports Hall of Famer. “No question, we played as a unit. The following year, 1954, I believe we had a better team, but everyone was trying to make the all-star team, and it didn’t work.”

The early Rebel team was led by point guard Bob Ramsey, who drained the game-winning bucket on the final shot of the game to down defending three-peat champion Duke of Connaught in

one of the most memorable finishes in local high school history.

But the group was more than one player, said Steen.

Ramsay had a hoop in his back yard, and his father set up outdoor lights so the team could practise any time they liked.

“We were shooting hoops there all the time,” Steen said.

The ‘79 Rebels, under no-nonsense coach Mike Jones, were also a well-groomed group.

“We had guys who just understood the game well,” said Jones, who switched the boys to a half◗South Page 20

Temporary Position

Kevin Hill/THE RECORD

Good friends: A New Westminster youth girls’ soccer team had a good run against this team from Coquitlam at the Dominic Mobilio friendship tournament last weekend.

Canada wins third Cyprus Canada defeated the Netherlands in overtime to clinch its third Cyprus Cup women’s soccer title.

Emily Zurrer scored in the first period of extra time to give Canada a 2-1 victory against first-time finalist Holland at Tassos Marcou Stadium in Cyprus on Wednesday.

The victory was Canada’s fifth consecutive win in the new year and improved the team’s season record to six wins and one loss.

On Monday, national team captain Christine Sinclair and Brittany Timko both scored to give Canada its third straight win of the competition – a 2-0 win over England.

Sinclair got the game-winner off a rebound late in the opening half.

Earlier in the competition, Sinclair set up former two-time Canadian under-20 player of the year, Jonelle Filigno, for her

first goal of the year.

Canada previously won the cup in 2008 and again last year.

Clan bounces Boise

Simon Fraser University’s field lacrosse club got back on a winning footing with a 16-7 victory over the Boise State Broncos at Mercer Stadium on March 5.

The No. 17-ranked Clan got a careerhigh five goals from freshman Calvin Craig, while sophomore Colton Dow paced the squad with a career-best sevenpoint outing, including four markers.

The win upped SFU’s record to 2-3.

A day earlier, SFU was edged 17-14

by No. 7 Michigan State in Vancouver, Washington.

Eight different goal scorers contributed to the scoreline, including Dow and junior Rick Bezuidenhout, who both recorded hat tricks.

South: Opening tipoff is on Wednesday ◗ continued from page 19

court defence to cut down on fouls halfway through the season. “Once we got to late in the season, we could almost score at will.”

The team was led by another MVP guard, Brian Craig, who shut down Richmond’s Alan Tate, a name at or near the top of almost all the individual Mainland scoring records.

“Brian (Ramsay) could hit. He was so skilled, he gave a lot of players defensive problems, and he could find the open guy.

But he could score.”

Jones went with a largely six-man unit down the final stretch, but it was never about just one man, he said.

“They were total team players,” Jones added. “I couldn’t really key on one

guy. They could all score, and they all could shoot.

The hallmark for the ‘79 Rebels was closing each quarter with an emphatic buzzer-beating bomb from long range.

“It shattered (the opposition) psychologically,” said Jones.

The 2011 Rebels, led by guards Ater Degal and Manroop Clair, are arguably the deepest talent-rich South team to grace the hardwood.

They, too, can fracture an opposition’s confidence if everything is going right.

But so far in the playoffs against the top-seeded teams, the Rebels have not lived up to that stellar billing.

Matic said South got a wake-up call from Palmer

in the Mainland final.

But, perhaps they can learn a little from past history as well.

“We have to match (Palmer’s energy) and play as a team,” Matic said.

But there will be other solid teams to face along the road to the final before reaching Palmer on the other side of the draw.

At next week’s provincials, South will be on the same side of the draw with the No. 2-ranked Kelowna Owls, No. 4 Vancouver College and Fraser Valley champion W.J. Mouat.

South will play its opening game of the provincials at the Langley Events Centre on Wednesday against Vancouver Island No. 2 Oak Bay. Tipoff is scheduled for 8:15 p.m.

He lived a long, adventurous life gold mining in Stewart & Alaska, serving in the R.C.A.F. during WWII, working at McCleery & Weston, and Dairyland. Special thanks to all the family and friends who enriched Bill’s life and visited him at George Derby along with Dr. Tang, Dr. Burns and the amazing staff at George Derby.

In lieu of flowers the family requests donations to the Coquitlam Relay of Life (Lianne Wilson) or the charity of your choice. www.remembering.ca

The common question I hear my clients ask is, "What do I want to be when I grow up?'.

Yes, this comes from adults – people who are already grown up - and yes they are half joking, but there is an Gregg Taylor incredible truth to it, as many (if not most) people do not really know what they want to do in their career.

However, the question I would really like people to ask themselves when they are in a life/career transition is: "Who do I want to be?"

I believe it's more important to discover, accept, and honour 'who' we are before we try to figure out 'what' we are supposed to do. After all, we are human beings, not human doings, yet many people forget or do not understand how important it is in life to really know who they are. To quote the Taoist Philosopher, Lao Tsu: "He who knows others is learned, he who knows himself is wise."

In order to learn more about ourselves, we must invest time and energy into assessing our values, temperament, talents, interests, dreams, fears and beliefs.

Who we are is more than these parts but it does provide a foundation to help determine what we are meant to do in our career. Once we have done a thorough self examination, we can then weigh this information against different lifestyle choices and occupations to see which would be the best match for us. Keep in mind however that values, passions, beliefs and interests are apt to change over a person’s life time so it's only understandable that we may also change the way we want to live or the work we want to do at different times or terms of our life.

Don't get too attached to having it look like one career for life.

Who do I want to be? Who am I now? These are the questions you ought to be asking yourself if you are in a career conundrum. The characteristics of your true self, as they are today, are what you need to examine first; the rest is just details.

For help making a career change, call Transitions Career & Business Consultants, coordinators of The Transitions Program, a free 3 week career exploration program available to all unemployed people at 604-434-1177 or 604-681-2774.

NOW CLASSIFIEDS 604-444-3000

Cancer June 21-July 22: Your energy, charisma and effectiveness rise high Sunday to Tuesday, giving you the ability to cope with some major obstacles or problems that have existed for two or three years. Your luck, karma and self-image hit the lowest spot in two decades over the last year and a half. Now you’re beginning the long climb upward, back to the sunshine. Things turn Monday about noon – relationships, finances, security and intimacy take on a comfortable, healthy glow! Your money and career luck climb midweek. But you hit a familiar relationship drag Friday/Saturday: being light, friendly cures it.

Leo July 23-Aug. 22: Lie low, rest and contemplate Sunday to Tuesday noon. Don’t tempt fate. Tuesday afternoon might start with a rush, a sudden friendship, a brilliant idea, or merely a wee uplift – in whatever way, a small signal comes that the next eight years are going to be different – you are stepping into a zone of increased awareness and intellectual acuity, of increased and smoother love, more travel, more learning; and if single, you will very likely marry. Life is fresh, mysteries flee (well, soon)! Expect attention all midweek. Chase money but beware spending, Friday/Saturday.

Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22: Be wary of investments, large financial undertakings, intimacy and any “private co-operation” Sunday – and all week. These are ethically OK Monday, but they still won’t yield practical profit. Work is reliable, though: you’re paid honestly, fairly. Relationships face some bumps, but you remain buoyant, and end happily. Retire for some rest and contemplation Tuesday noon to Thursday noon. Contacts with institutions, government or “head office” go well. Reconnect with spiritual realms. Your energy and charisma leap upward Thursday eve onward, but co-operation’s essential.

Tim Stephens' Astral Reflections Aries March 21 - April 19: This isn’t the easiest week. There aren’t any disasters (unless you’re impetuous Sunday or late week, Saturday).You’re just rowing against the wind in career, communications, media, travel, work and health zones. Plod onward, and get plenty of rest. Watch what you say or write Sunday and Friday/Saturday. Home’s no picnic Sunday and early Monday, but Monday p.m. into Tuesday noon brings a gratifying sense of emotional security and friendship. Contemplate romance midweek. Tackle chores (safely) Thursday onward. A brand new world of hope and friendship lies ahead!

Taurus April 20-May 20: One more week of happiness, optimism, flirting, new plans, life’s vigour, friendships and entertainment! It won’t be a totally smooth time, though. Sunday contains some communications foul-ups (beware gossip, secret acts, especially regarding a partner) after which you feel gloom Monday morning. But all’s smooth after this, especially in shopping and earning, Tuesday/ Wednesday. Romance, gambling urges and creative surges arrive Thursday noon to Saturday noon -- but you might have to choose between “two attractions” or two actions. A chore you didn’t do nags at you.

Gemini May 21-June 20: Plug away at career, ambition, prestige or authority-related chores.

(If something in this arena began in 2010 or last January, it’s still a winner.) Be careful with money – make a major purchase, seek a pay raise or deal with important clients after midday Monday, not before (nor Sunday). Short trips, communications, paperwork, casual friendships and errands go well midweek. But someone’s evasive or deceptive around noon Thursday. All week, your hopes might struggle against a financial, romantic, age or health barrier. Try this: conform to the barrier; make it an aid.

Co-operation will be lacking until Monday noon, so plan your most important moves for that p.m. Hopes, optimism, friendship and light flirtation play around you Tuesday to Thursday – one of the most exciting relationship periods of your life is starting!

Scorpio Oct. 23-Nov. 21: You’re in a romantic, creative, beauty-aware time, and Sunday to Tuesday bring a mellow, understanding mood. Good – you’ll need all the understanding you can muster Sunday through noon Monday, when various obstacles try your patience, especially in the work arena. By noon this trend switches 180 degrees to success, and romance has a better than even chance, right into pre-dawn Tuesday. Your ambitions get a splendid opportunity Tuesday eve to early Thursday (unless you worry about security) – take the chance, early (Tuesday best). Optimism, happiness, popularity late week!

Sagittarius Nov. 22-Dec. 21: The accent remains on home, children, security, real estate, nature, stomach, soul and nurturing, for one more week. It isn’t the easiest week – romance and pleasure can’t seem to escape the realities of money and earnings. They’re intertwined, through late 2012. On the plus side, the same period (18 months) blesses you in emotional, serene, moral ways – you’ll feel good, right. (And you’ll be oddly protected from any disasters.) But don’t seek intimacy, sex nor investments Sunday. Gentle love, understanding and travel ideas enter mid-week. Be ambitious Thursday eve, Friday.

Business

Continues on next page

Mar. 13 - Mar. 19 Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19: Communications, paperwork, details, errands, casual friends, short trips and curiosity fill this week and next. In the slowest, most gradual way, like water on blotting paper, this area of your life will grow for the next 15 years. At the same time (perhaps illogically) your worries about money and income will fade. You enter eight years of “home excitement” this week. This can have a negative effect, bringing more stress to the home (so relax, exercise, guard digestion) and a positive one: money made from property, food/shelter areas. A big new life! Midweek joy, romance.

Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18: Continue to chase money, but cautiously. This entire week, romance, gambling, sex, investments, lifestyle changes, secrets and “detective work” need to be handled carefully – or better yet, left alone, especially Sunday and Thursday onward.Tackle chores Sunday to Tuesday noon – follow safety rules Sunday/Monday. You glow with a certain sweet light all March, which can attract romantic attention. Tuesday afternoon to Thursday noon could provide some relationship excitement! Be diplomatic but eager these days. Secrets, “darker urges” arise Thursday/Friday – be honest, clean, safe.

Pisces Feb. 19-March 20: Your energy, charisma and effectiveness continue to put you on top. But this week has a couple of barriers which irk you a bit. They involve a partner, and/or your home situation, and/or money. (In all cases, money.) Ah, well, everything that has a compromise, has a solution. Sunday to Tuesday heightens your romantic, pleasure and beauty sensors.

A creative surge arrives! (It’s better, easier, Monday p.m. onward.) Tackle chores midweek – you’ll do them swiftly, successfully. Good health news! Relationships present challenges Thursday to Saturday: be diplomatic, loving. timstephens@shaw.ca • Reading: 416-686-5014
