City bans bunny sales The City of New Westminster is trying to do its part to stop the proliferation of abandoned bunnies. On Monday, council gave three readings to a bylaw that would prohibit the sale of rabbits in pet stores. The intent of the bylaw is to lessen regional concerns relating to domesticated rabbits being released into nature parks and other areas. Keith Coueffin, the city’s manager of licensing and integrated services, said other municipalities have asked New Westminster to support the initiative because of concerns about rabbits being released. “It was particularly noted as a very large problem in ◗Rabbits Page 5

New all-weather field will be built BY THERESA MCMANUS REPORTER tmcmanus@royalcityrecord.com

Local athletes will have a second artificial turf to use in the fall of 2011. On Monday, city council directed staff to start planning for the development of a second artificial turf field. The project has a $2.18 million budget. The City of New Westminster had applied for a federal grant to assist with funding a new artificial turf field, but that funding wasn’t approved. If it had been approved, the city had planned to convert the Queen’s Park South field to an artificial turf field plus baseball and softball facilities. “That was an ideal situation,” said Coun. Lorrie Williams. “Since we can’t do that, we will pick another venue. We haven’t settled on it.” Coun. Jonathan Cote said the four main locations being considered are Terry Hughes, Hume and Queen’s parks, as well as the gravel field near Canada Games Pool.

MAYOR THANKS DEVELOPERS FOR MAKING IT HAPPEN

◗ CITY COUNCIL

Promoter throws in the towel New Westminster was looking into request to hold boxing tournament – but applicant pulls his paperwork BY THERESA MCMANUS REPORTER tmcmanus@royalcityrecord.com

A proposed boxing tournament in the Royal City has been knocked out before getting into the ring. After receiving a request for the city’s support in holding a boxing event, council directed staff to report back on city policies and practices related to boxing events. City council received a report Monday about proposed boxing regulations for the city. “There is further information since the report,” Keith Coueffin, the city’s manager of licensing and integrated services, told The Record Tuesday. “The promoter has withdrawn their application.” Punch Out Promotions had submitted a business licence application to hold an amateur boxing tournament in July at the New Westminster Armoury. The applicant had proposed to charge an admission fee, have a live band providing entertainment, to get a licence to serve liquor and to hold boxing contests that comply with Boxing B.C.’s guidelines. Staff and police were reviewing the application, and the Department of National Defence, which owns the venue, was being consulted about whether it would permit the event. A staff report indicates that amateur events can take place in New Westminster but must comply with the Criminal Code, which means that contestants can’t be paid. “It is unlikely the city will receive proposals for professional boxing matches as the city does not have an athletic commission,” said the report. “Amateur boxing events may take place.” If a professional promoter wants to host an event in New Westminster, he would be required to apply for a business licence. That application would be reviewed by city and police staff to ensure it doesn’t create policing or community concerns and complies with all city regulations.

Victoria Hill overpass is now open

Pedestrians now have a safe way of crossing McBride Boulevard from Victoria Hill to Queen’s Park. The pedestrian overpass was contributed and built by Onni Group as part of its agreement to develop Victoria Hill on the former Woodlands property across from Queen’s Park. “This new overpass is a tremendous addition to the Victoria Hill development and will facilitate safe crossing of McBride Boulevard between the neighbourhood and Queen’s Park for all residents of the city,” said Mayor Wayne Wright as he cut the ribbon opening the overpass with children from KIDS daycare located in Victoria Hill. “On behalf of the City of New Westminster, I’d like to thank Onni Group for working with us to make this happen.” The $2-million structure has been under construction since early this year. It connects the sidewalk at the intersection of Memorial Drive and McBride Boulevard with the Millennium Trail, which winds through Queen’s Park. “With the McBride Boulevard overpass,

It was then slated to be completed by July 2009, but Onni asked city council to extend the timeline for construction of

the overpass as a result of the “significant turn” in the real estate market. That request prompted nearly 200 people to sign a petition supporting immediate construction of the overpass. Victoria Hill residents told city council that the McBride Boulevard/Royal Avenue intersection is too dangerous for pedestrians. Further along McBride Boulevard, a pedestrian and a motorcyclist died after a tragic collision on McBride Boulevard in June 2008. A local teen attempted to cross McBride Boulevard, not far from her home, when she was hit by a motorcycle.

It’s the law: Do you have a smoke alarm installed? Every house must now have a smoke alarm

Strong in Tradition - Committed to Service

Proposed Pet Store Bylaw No. 7398 The City of New Westminster has been requested to prohibit the sale of pet rabbits in order to help reduce regional concerns regarding pet rabbits being released into parks and other areas. The City is subsequently considering implementing Pet Store Bylaw No. 7398 which would prohibit the sale of rabbits in pet stores and other retail stores. Anyone who is affected by proposed Pet Store Bylaw No. 7398 may make representations to City Council by writing to the following by July 1, 2010:

BY ALFIE LAU REPORTER

editorial@royalcityrecord.com

It’s a law that will save lives. On May 1, every residential building built before 1979 was to have a smoke alarm installed, and firefighters in the Royal City welcomed the new law. New Westminster fire inspector Brent Joel said, “We’ve long said that smoke alarms are the cheapest and most effective way to have a warning system in your home. … You can’t just rely on your nose and sniffing out a fire.” The new law, under the B.C. Fire Code, also includes sleeping rooms, such hotel rooms, and recreational buildings that provide temporary sleeping accommodation. According to the provincial government, approximately 800,000 residential buildings constructed in B.C. before 1979. The province developed the new smoke alarm regulations with advice from the Office of the Fire Commissioner and the public. Changes will make the B.C. Fire Code more consistent with the National Fire Code. The new law allows these owners to either install battery-operated smoke alarms or the more expensive hardwired systems that have smoke alarms directly connected to a building’s electrical system. One person who knows how destructive a fire can be is New Westminster MLA Dawn Black. “My house burnt down in the late-’80s,” said Black. “Yes, we had a smoke alarm but fortunately, we weren’t home when it happened.” For Black, there are only positives to the new law. “It seems like common

Pause for alarm: New Westminster ﬁre inspector Brent Joel checks out a smoke alarm. sense to have a smoke alarm in all homes,” said Black. “And with how cheap smoke alarms are these days, there really is no reason not to have one in your home.” Joel couldn’t agree more. “We would prefer to see all houses have a hardwired system,” said Joel, “but we also recognize that having any type of early warning device is better than nothing. A batteryoperated smoke alarm will still do the job.” Joel said even the most basic smoke alarms do a good job of alerting people to a fire. “We ran into a recent case where the residue from a candle set off the alarm,” said Joel. “The technology out there is very good.”

Under the new law, landlords must make sure their rental properties comply with the law. Tenants should contact their landlord immediately if they do not have the required smoke alarms, or, the existing smoke alarm is not working. Joel said he’s not sure how the New Westminster fire department will be enforcing the new law. “As fire inspectors, we are charged with doing enforcement on commercial buildings, and there are approximately 3,500 in the city that we have to keep an eye on,” he said. “With public dwellings, what I think we’ll be doing is we will respond to any complaints, and we can do investigations as warranted.”

bourhood celebrations. The folks who work tirelessly to put on Sapperton Days deserve several bouquets of roses for pulling together a down-to-earth, rollicking good festival. What we really love about Sapperton Days is the organizers’ abilities to keep the event so kid-interactive and familyfriendly. Kids got to decorate cupcakes, ride bikes, knit tea cosies and even make get-well cards for patients at Royal Columbian Hospital. The events are thoughtful and a great relief to parents

who are bombarded with so much hightech, high-cost entertainment demands nowadays. And now we hear that another neighbourhood is rallying to start a new festival in the city. The Grimston Park festival is still in the formative stages – but, if this city’s spirit for family fun and celebration is any indication – we think this festival will be another unique display of the fun to be had in New Westminster.

Uniﬁed Liberal front under ﬁre IN THE HOUSE

he one consistent factor that distinguished the B.C. Liberal government from its two predecessors has been shattered with the bolt-fromthe-blue resignation of Blair Lekstrom from the government caucus. From 1986 to 1991, B.C. was governed by political parties that found themselves mired in internal problems that eventually boiled over into public view. The result for both the Social Credit and the New Democratic Party administrations was eventual total collapse. Both parties took out their own leaders. Bill Vander Zalm, Mike Harcourt and, to a lesser degree, Glen Clark all had to step aside prematurely as their own people broke ranks with their leadership. But this long-running narrative suddenly changed with the election of Gordon Campbell and the B.C. Liberals in 2001. For the past nine years, the administration has been able to hold itself together through scandal and controversy with little evidence of internal dissent. Some high-profile people

(Carole Taylor, Christy Clark and Gary Collins being the most notable) left the government, but their departures were not attached to any publicly voiced displeasure about policies or leadership. But Lekstrom’s sudden resignation changes things. For the first time, a credible member of the B.C. Liberals has parted ways publicly with his party and his leader (Lekstrom once voted against a government bill that tore up a health union’s collective agreement, but that’s small potatoes compared to quitting the caucus). The question now: Will anyone else from the caucus follow his lead? Will any other Liberal MLA opt out of what appears, for now at least, a car heading over a cliff? Lekstrom’s motivations for his resignation have been questioned. He says he’s leaving over how the HST has been handled, insisting the government should pull back from implementing it and embark on a six-month consultation process. But some think he’s really preparing to run federally for the Conservatives in the next election or is even thinking of heading up a third provincial party. He’s neatly disassociated himself from the dreaded HST (even though he voted to repeal the provincial sales tax, which clears the decks for bringing in the HST), which should help his

City needs to solve traffic woes Dear Editor:

I would like to thank the 350 or so residents that have signed a petition to reduce volume on Fourth Avenue and Queens Avenue to the requirements of the national standard, 1,000 cars a day. We have had enough of our neighborhoods being used as a thoroughfare. Residential roads are to be used as safe routes to school and for the enjoyment of the residents that live on those streets. They are not to serve as speedy alternative routes to the main arterials. I am all for the construction of a diverter on Third Avenue to reduce the volume to 900 cars a day, a volume that Third Avenue has not had since the ’80s. At the same time, it is beyond comprehension that our city engineering department is determined to march on with a plan that will do nothing to reduce the 3,400 cars a day on Fourth Avenue or the ◗Liberals Page 7 3,680 cars a day on Queens Avenue.

Third Avenue will have a diverter, yet only two speed humps will go on Fourth Avenue. Let me ask you this: What are engineering and the consultant thinking? How will two speed humps possibly reduce traffic on Fourth Avenue when 1,000 cars per day, diverted off Third Avenue, go looking for an alternative route? The same applies for Queens. In eight years, the volume on Queens has doubled. It will have an enhanced crosswalk, a speed hump and no left turns off 12th Street from 4 to 6 p.m. Of the 3,680 cars that use Queens every day, the “no left turn” sign may remove (if a sign works 100 per cent) 350 cars a day. This leaves one speed hump and a crosswalk to reduce the volume down from 3,330 cars per day. I hate to repeat myself, but what are engineering and the consultant thinking?

volume on Queens when 1,000 cars per day diverted off Third Avenue go looking for an alternative route. The conclusion of the latest conversations I’ve been party to is that it’s difficult to deal with the volume on Queens and on Fourth Avenue without a diverter. Without a diverter, here are numbers from the city’s data for roads that have been, to use the engineering term, “road dieted”: ◗ 12th Street – 14 per cent drop ◗ Sixth Avenue – seven per cent drop ◗ Sixth Street – two per cent drop ◗ Eighth Street – 15 per cent drop ◗ Fifth Avenue – 23 per cent drop ◗ Columbia Street – 15 per cent drop Compare the safety measures for two roads that pass by schools.

◗ Second Street (Herbert Spencer): The city installed three speed humps, a roundabout, a raised crosswalk and street narrowing. ◗ Queens Avenue (John Robson): The city’s plan proposes one speed hump and an enhanced crosswalk. Why does one elementary school merit additional traffic calming by road narrowing, two additional speed humps and a roundabout? The Brow of the Hill traffic plan doesn’t have a roundabout anywhere. Having more than 350 people sign a petition is a clear sign that residents want more done. It is time for our city council to step in and start asking questions. Clearly a motion needs to be passed that will require traffic volumes on Fourth Avenue and Queens be reduced. John Taylor, New Westminster

THE BEST FROM OUR BLOGS This week in blogs, editor Pat Tracy takes aim at the media fearmongering that surrounded the discovery of a woman’s body in Pacific Spirit Park. Here’s an excerpt: On slow news days, and weeks, the media is a dangerous terrorist.

Give us a bit of fear, and we’re looking to ramp it up. Now, to be fair, community newspapers, and our papers, are not quite as bloodthirsty as the dailies or websites that have no true connection to their readership. … But while

we might be tamer cousins to our big-city media relatives, we’re in the same gene pool. For the rest of this blog posting, check out the From the Editor’s Desk blog at www.royalcityrecord.com – click on the Opinions tab and follow the link under Blogs.

Liberals: Lekstrom takes a giant step ◗ continued from page 6

political future. But whatever his reasons, Lekstrom’s move has thrust the very real grumbling within government into the public spotlight. New Democrats and their anti-HST allies are salivating at what they see as an eventual avalanche of dissent, as one Liberal MLA after another bolts from their leader. But I wonder how many will actually take the giant step that Lekstrom has taken. For one thing, quitting a caucus consigns an MLA to near-oblivion status. And leaving the caucus may not ensure an MLA is still electable in 2013, just because he or she has broken ranks with the HST. However, we are in uncharted waters right now. Trying to predict the political future of government MLAs is a fool’s errand these days. What is really unknown

is the depth of loyalty certain newly elected MLAs have to Campbell and the B.C. Liberal brand. These are the people to keep an eye on. Rookie B.C. Liberal MLAs such as John Slater, Pat Pimm, Terry Lake, Eric Foster, Donna Barnett and Don McRae appear to be most vulnerable to successful recall campaigns. For the most part, they represent rural ridings that encompass regions that once voted for the old federal Reform Party in large numbers and are particularly incensed over the HST. It is these MLAs who will feel the most pressure in the weeks ahead, and if they are staring down the barrel at recall or certain defeat in 2013, they may take a walk from the caucus. If just two of them quit, they could join Lekstrom and fellow independent MLA Vicki Huntington

and gain official party status in the legislature. That could provide the basis on which to build a credible third-party alternative in this province. But I wouldn’t bet the farm on anyone else leaving just yet. There’s going to be a lot of handholding occurring in the B.C. Liberal caucus in the weeks ahead, as the premier and senior cabinet ministers try to calm the waters and implore everyone to stick together. They will all be watched closely over the summer. Lekstrom has opened the door to a path that could see the government fall apart, or he has simply consigned himself to the lonely life of an independent MLA. Either way, the days of a concrete unified front appear to be over for the B.C. Liberals. Keith Baldrey is chief political reporter for Global B.C.

Anti-HST petition hits target Canvassers will continue to collect signatures until June 27

BY JENNIFER MOREAU REPORTER jmoreau@royalcityrecord.com

First they hit the 10 per cent mark, now they’re in the safe zone. The anti-HST petition has garnered 15 per cent of signatures in all of B.C.’s 85 electoral districts. The news came following the campaign’s latest signature counts from last weekend. “These are amazing numbers and prove unequivocally that British Columbians of every persuasion reject the HST,” said Chris Delaney, lead organizer for Fight HST. Petition canvassers had until July

5 to collect 10 per cent of signatures in the province’s electoral ridings for the petition to go to the next step. They were aiming for 15 per cent to be on the safe side in case some of the signatures are not valid. The New Westminster riding needed 6,313 signatures to hit the 15 per cent mark but has 7,510 with more coming in. “They just keep building on it, which is great,” Delaney said. Canvassers will keep at it till June 27 and then submit the petition to Elections B.C. for review on June 30, about a week ahead of schedule. Delaney said while he knew very early on that there was a huge public backlash against the tax, anti-HST organizers weren’t sure if they could sustain public interest in the campaign over a three-month period.

“What kept the momentum going was the Liberal government itself,” he said, adding that people became angrier every time Premier Gordon Campbell and Finance Minister Colin Hansen tried to defend the tax. “That actually played to our benefit.” Blair Lekstrom’s recent resignation from the Liberal party because of public opposition to the HST gave the campaign “another shot in the arm,” Delaney said. Delaney is urging the provincial government to drop the HST as soon as possible. The 12 per cent harmonized tax is scheduled to take effect July 1.

No decision on council pay hike BY THERESA MCMANUS REPORTER tmcmanus@royalcityrecord.com

New Westminster city council has yet to make a decision on proposed pay hikes and separation allowances for council members. A staff review of city council’s remuneration policy resulted in a recommendation of raises for the mayor and council, retirement allowances for council members leaving office and extended health benefits. Residents wanting to comment on the policy were to appear as delegations at the May 17 city council meeting, but no one spoke to the issue. “We had some e-mail responses. There were some letters in the newspapers,” said Joan Burgess, the city’s manager of human resources. “We did not have any delegations.” Staff will provide council with a report about feedback received regarding the proposed changes to the council remuneration

policy. Based on a council remuneration policy established in 2001, the mayor’s annual salary will increase from $81,987 to $86,878. That’s an increase from the $71,665 in 2006, $73,770 in 2007 and $81,987 in 2008 and 2009, all of which were adjusted using a “regression analysis” process. A policy established in 2001 provides the method used to calculate changes to city council’s pay and requires full review with a public process every three years. The human resources department, which oversees the remuneration policy, has found that the mayor and council’s indemnity remain below the Metro Vancouver average but suggested compensation should at least meet the Metro Vancouver average. Under the policy, councillors will also be getting an increase this year, receiving $34,089 compared to the $31,534 they were paid in 2009. That compares to

City earns award for 12th Street

BY THERESA MCMANUS REPORTER tmcmanus@royalcityrecord.com

New Westminster has won a provincial award of excellence for the creative redevelopment of 12th Street through the City’s 12th Street Public Art Community Initiative. The B.C. Recreation and Parks Association will present the City of New Westminster with the Parks and Open Spaces Award at a symposium being held today in Penticton. The association said the renovation and revitalization of 12th Street illustrates how a public art community initiative can turn a routine street improvement plan into a project that galvanizes a community and transforms an area. “The most important thing is it came from the grassroots up. The people that were in the community did it,” said Mayor Wayne Wright. “It was fantastic. The results were absolutely superb. We’d like to do it again.” As part of the beautification project that saw new sidewalks, lighting and trees placed on the street, the city and community members

worked on a public art initiative for the section of upper 12th Street. “It’s impressive to see how the community has poured its energy into breathing new life into this street,” said Suzanne Allard Strutt, CEO of the B.C. Recreation and Parks Association. “In addition to increasing the city’s walkability, it has created an engaging and welcoming open space that showcases the culture, history and individuals that make the neighbourhood, and city, what it is.” Joanne Edey-Nicoll, the city’s assistant director of parks, culture and recreation, said the city is honoured to receive the award. West End resident Mary Wilson, who approached the city about the idea of including mosaics as part of a public art project on 12th Street, is in Penticton accepting the award along with city officials. “It was her dream and her vision at the very beginning. I think it is important to give credit where credit is due,” she said. “It’s a great recognition for the city, especially as we are developing more public art projects.”

From customers to restaurateurs

They liked the food at De Dutch Pannekoek House so much, they’re operating a new one in the city BY THERESA MCMANUS REPORTER tmcmanus@royalcityrecord.com

Members of the Jang family won’t have to travel far to satisfy their fix for the De Dutch Pannekoek House. Longtime fans of the restaurant, Marie Jang and her daughter Tandrea are getting set to open a De Dutch Pannekoek House Restaurant in New Westminster. The restaurant is set to open in Columbia Square at the beginning of July. “We are huge fans,” said Tandrea, who was born and raised in New Westminster. “We used to go there every single weekend.” While the Jangs travelled to the Delta location for De Dutch cuisine, soon they’ll be dining at their own franchise. Ironically, they called the company’s head office to let them know about the perfect venue for a New Westminster restaurant and learned a lease had been signed on that very location. “Next thing I knew we were in training fulltime, six to seven days a week,” Marie said. “It was intense training. We did everything – cooking to cleaning, anything you need for a restaurant.” The business venture marks Tandrea’s first foray into the restaurant industry, but her mom has a bit of experience. “Back in the ’60s, my mom had a restaurant – downtown Vancouver on Granville Street,” Marie said. “She also had a restaurant in Vegas. I worked there for a year-and-a-half.” The Jangs are aiming to give the local De Dutch Pannekoek House a family feel. “The quantity of the food is always great. We always found the service to be really good,” Marie said. “We like people. It’s more of a family effort. We are all going to be involved.” Tandrea’s daughter Bryanna has set her sights on working in the restaurant and her 10-year-old daughter Keira has been involved in the planning work. “She went through all the plans herself,” Marie said about Keira. “She knows where every machine

She has a couple of new ones by the end of the year.” really been into this.” Poitras said the New With no De Dutch restaurants in the immediate area, Tandrea Westminster location has generbelieves it will go over well with ated a lot of interest. “Tandrea and Marie will be locals.

he local Plant A Row/Grow a Row program will launch its weekly collections for the New Westminster Food Bank on Father’s Day. The program, which accepts donations of fruit and produce for the food bank, will kick off the 2010 season with a collection on Sunday, June 20 from 9:30 to 10:30 a.m. People are welcome to drop by the parking lot of St. Thomas More Collegiate at 7450 12th Ave., which is just across the border in Burnaby. “I am going to have tomato plants available, and possibly other plants for giveaways if you are bringing food for the food bank,” said coordinator Claude LeDoux. “We are looking forward to a big year.” LeDoux notes that the growing season has been slowed somewhat by the spring weather. Volunteers will gratefully accept

donations for the Plant a Row program every Sunday at the same location from 9:30 to 10:30 a.m. “We accept anything. We want fresh fruits and vegetables from your garden,” LeDoux said. “If you purchase anything from the store, like a bag of potatoes or a can of vegetables, we will take that too.”

Fraser River Discovery Centre is celebrating boat builders for Aboriginal Day. The Fraser River Discovery Centre is acknowledging Aboriginal Day with a look at the rich boat building history of people on the river with hands-on activities and art stations. The event is being held on Sunday, June 20 from 1 to 3:30 p.m. “Cedar was a very important material for boat-building,” says Shannon King, the centre’s education coordinator. “It is lightweight, rotresistant, and the grain of the wood is very straight. First Nations boat builders recognized these qualities and placed a high value on cedar.” Visitors to the Discovery Centre will be

Sikh parade on Sunday There will also be a Cops For Cancer fundraiser. For volunteer Jas Bains, the best part of the day is watching the little ones enjoy all of the fun. “I look forward to being with the kids that day,” says the mother of three. The event is held to commemorate the martyrdom of the Sikhs’ fifth Guru, Sri Guru Arjan Dev Ji, who was martyred in 1606 by the ruling Mogul empire for defending the rights of the oppressed, Bains says. – Niki Hope

A parade of colour and music will make its way through Queensborough on Sunday with the fourth annual Nagar Kirtan celebration held by the local Khalsa Diwan Society. Thousand of Sikhs are expected to take part in the event, which starts with the parade at 9:30 a.m. It travels from the Gurdwara Sahib Sukh Sagar, on Wood Street, to the Queensborough Community Centre. Everyone is welcome to attend the daylong event, which will include delicious food and lots of fun offerings for the kids.

Students go green in ’Boro A CLASS ACT

NIKI HOPE

tudents at Queensborough Middle School students are learning that it’s not so hard being green, after all. The students have formed an environmental club with the help of staff members Jennifer Skye and Patty Farris, according to the New Westminster school district website. The group’s first project

was to establish a composting program at the school. An anonymous donor contributed a large composter, which club members “planted” in the school garden. Now each classroom has its own compost bucket (with a lid) and club members regularly pick up compostable materials, deposit them in the composter and clean the buckets.

Free park pass

Grade 8 students can experience Canada’s national parks and historic sites for free. The federal government recently launched “My Parks Pass,” a pro-

gram partnering initiative with Nature Canada and The Historica-Dominion Institute that will allow Grade 8 students to enter national parks and historic sites for free for 12 months. “Canada’s future lies in the hands of its youth, and today, on Earth Day, our government is especially proud to place a key to the nation’s greatest treasures in those young hands,” Jim Prentice, Canada’s Environment Minister and Minister responsible for Parks, said in a press release.

◗ MEMORIES

Lessons from school reunion HEALTHWISE

DR. DAVIDICUS WONG

ecently around 80 of my high school classmates came together for a reunion at Anducci’s. Decades (I’ll let you guess how many) have passed since I graduated from Burnaby North, yet memories of those days seem as fresh as if they happened last month. Of course, they were recently refreshed by my oldest son’s grad dinner and dance a few weeks ago. Burnaby North had always been a big school. The graduating class was too large for everyone to know everyone else, and less than 20 per cent was able to attend this reunion. Yet I expected that I would recognize most faces. I was the editor of all my high school yearbooks from grades 9 to 12. I still have vivid memories of the fun I had with my friends, including Stew, Stan, Peter and Ron, staying at school

hours after classes ended, developing photos, designing layouts and writing. It kept us from getting into trouble. My summers were even preoccupied with the planning of the next year’s book. Each production was a 365-day-a-year job, so we objected to people calling them annuals as if they were thrown together once a year. In fact, I caught myself last week correcting a classmate who referred to our yearbook as the annual, as if it really makes a difference now. I therefore saw every photo that did or didn’t make it to publication, and I realized the responsibility we had in creating the time capsule for our teachers and classmates. Each yearbook would form a core of their memories of individual lives and our lives together. At Anducci’s, a slide show of old yearbook photos was projected above the bar, and we each wore a nametag with our graduating photo. Over the years, those candid snapshots, group photos, team pictures and

portraits have become icons names were in large print. Most of us would need that may or may not have reading glasses. Even so, reflected the reality of the we couldn’t believe our moment. eyes, matching nametags True or false, they solidto faces. ified core memories now So many factors can challenged when we meet alter our apparent age: the again years later. effects of easy It is an odd thing these or hard times, the accelerated days to be in aging caused a room full of “When you’re by smoking people the same fresh out of and hard drugs, age. the stress of When you’re school, the rest illness and fresh out of chronic health school, the rest of the world is of the world older, but when conditions, and of course genis older, but etics. when you pass you pass the Yet we the median age median age of shouldn’t judge of the populathe population, one another by tion, the rest appearances; of the world the rest of the that’s what seems younger world seems everyone did – unless you in high school. hang out at hosyounger.” We’re all a lot pitals and nursolder and deeping homes.

A Canadian comedy is the next offering in the Arts Council of New Westminster’s Last Mondays at the Movies series. The Trotsky, written and directed by Jacob Tierney, follows the story of a Montreal high schooler, Leon Bronstein, who claims to be the reincarnation of Leon Trotsky. “When his father sends Leon to public school as punishment for starting a hunger strike at Papa’s clothing factory, Leon quickly lends new meaning to the term ‘student union,’ determined as he is to live out his preordained destiny to the fullest and change the world,” a film synopsis on imdb.com explains. The Trotsky stars Jay Baruchel as Leon and also features acclaimed Canadian actor Colm Feore as his school principal.

Lisa King/THE RECORD

Perfect bantams take A1 title The bantam A1 New Westminster Salmonbellies won their regular season title with near-perfect 15-0-1 record. The bantam ’Bellies secured an undefeated season with a 10-3 victory over the Port Coquitlam Saints in their final league game Sunday. Leading scorer Connor Robinson led the way with a hat trick, while Nathan Macedo added a pair of goals in the win. The only blemish on the ’Bellies league record was a 5-5 draw to Coquitlam a day earlier. New Westminster goalie Laiton Manuel backstopped the win, padding a phenomenal save percentage of .958 in the process. The bantams have also won two tournaments this season. The first was in Kamloops at the Al Price memorial, where New Westminster tripled Westshore 9-3 in the championship final. The second came at the recent

Hyack tournament with New Westminster humbling PoCo 10-1 in the gold-medal final. Robinson tops a potent attack for the A1 Salmonbellies with 95 points to date, including a whopping 63 goals. He is ably backed up by fellow snipers with 30-goal scorer Sean Fitzsimmons, and Nolan Duncan, Keanu Fernandez, captain Jordan McKenzie and Macedo, all with 20plus tallies this season. Robinson and Fernandez also lead the squad in loose balls with over 100 apiece. McKenzie is just one shy of the century mark with 99. Preston Lupul, Ryan Wilkinson, Mitchell Stokes and Mitchell Flintoff have also put up big numbers this season. Lupul has 17 goals and 52 points to date. Wilkinson has 47 points and Stokes 46, while Flintoff has garnered 42, including 17 markers.

Hayden Goss leads a solid defence that has allowed the combined opposition less than three goals per game. Others include: Jenna Chernoff, Liam Bujnowicz, Tommy Robertson, Mathew Sweeney, Max Gerhardt and Drew Belgrave. So far this season, the New Westminster club has amassed an overall record of 33-2-1 in league, tournament and exhibition play. The team’s only two defeats were both one-goal losses at the Coquitlam Dogwood bantam tournament at the end of May. The majority of the players have been together since mini-tyke and are coached by Warren Goss and current junior A players Kyle Robinson and Mark Negrin. The bantam Salmonbellies must now await their first-round opponent of the playoffs in preparation for the provincial minor lacrosse championships in Richmond in July.

◗ SENIOR A LACROSSE

’Bellies bounced by Maple Ridge BY TOM BERRIDGE SPORTS EDITOR tberridge@royalcityrecord.com

Those near losses earlier in the season are beginning to catch up with the New Westminster Salmonbellies. Last year’s Mann Cup finalists took an early season dressing down from an unlikely source, losing 9-4 to the Maple Ridge Burrards at home Thursday. The outcome was as much a shocker as it was a wake-up call for the senior A Salmonbellies, who up to now, had been getting by with less-than-stellar efforts in the Western Lacrosse Association. The drama began early in the game, 44 seconds after Martin Cummings, a second-year Salmonbellie who has been showing a tremendous upside in recent weeks, opened the scoring with his first of two in the period. But that’s where the good news ended. Maple Ridge, who was full value for the win, scored the next four goals on just 10 first-period shots to steal the momentum. Former Salmonbellie backup, Ron Schibild, was the game’s first star and deservedly so, stopping 43 shots, including 18 in the opening period to frustrate the ‘Bellie shooters. The Burrards opened the second period with more like the first 20 minutes. Joel Dalgarno potted a pair of goals six minutes apart and former junior A ‘Bellie Curtis Dickson added his second of the game later in the period to put the visitors up by five. Sean Robinson got one back in the final seconds of the period.

Queen’s Park fans might have been encouraged when Jordan McBride shaved the deficit to 7-4 at the start of the third period. But Maple Ridge was having none of it, winning the third period as well on goals by Derek Lowe and Aaron Pascas. Maple Ridge head coach Daren Fridge was not surprised by the outcome now that the draft-laden squad has all its players in the lineup. But what was a surprise was the way the Burrards defence held the Salmonbellies shooters in check. “We got to believe in ourselves,” said Schibild, who was let go by New Westminster in 2008 after playing in just one game for the ‘Bellies. “We have so much young talent. Most of us are pretty young. We don’t expect to win every game, but we now have a few years under our belts, and we’re starting to win some games. … and it feels good to get one against your old team.” New Westminster peppered Schibild with 35 shots in the first two periods. But in the third frame, it was Maple Ridge that outshot their hosts, adding a final insult. “Every year, they (Maple Ridge) plays up tough, and always hangs in there,” said New Westminster defender Ian Hawksbee. “This time, it was our time to hang on. We’ll remember the hooping and hollaring, like they just won the Mann Cup, and we’ll go from there.” The ’Bellies host Victoria at Queen’s Park Arena this Thursday. Game time is at 7:45 p.m.

Juniors: Two game-winning goals for utility ’Bellie Cowx settled things down with his first goal on the power play this season, but Nanaimo’s Ryan Forslund got that one back, knotting the scoring at 8-8 with less than three minutes left to play.

1031 GARY ALVIN MORROW

May 29, 1930 - June 07, 2010 Gary was born in Vancouver, BC and lived in the Kitsialano district until 1954 when he married. Gary will be missed and remembered by his wife Ruth brothers Allan (Norma), Gene (Freda); sister in laws, aunts, cousins, nieces, nephews and friends.

Gary worked for over 30 years for the B.C. telephone co. as a cable splicer and line-man. He retired in 1987 and in 1991 he moved to Salmon Arm. As per request there will be no service. E-mail condolences may be sent through Gary’s obituary at www.bowersfuneralservice.com. Funeral Arrangements are in the Care of Bowers Funeral Service and Crematorium, Salmon Arm, BC

DEVELOPMENT OF A PEST MANAGEMENT PLAN Pest Management Plan # 344-017-10/15 Southern Railway of British Columbia Limited Southern Railway of British Columbia Limited, 2102 River Drive, New Westminster, B.C., V3M 6S3 Telephone 604-527-6307 • Fax 604-526-0914

Southern Railway of British Columbia Limited is developing a Pest Management Plan and will submit the plan for registration under the Integrated Pest Management Act. This plan will describe a vegetation management and wood preservative programs using Integrated Pest Management, including the use of herbicides and pesticides to control pests and wood decay. The purpose is to control vegetation on the right of way ballast section, to address sight-line related safety issues and to control wood decay in the timber trestles. Pesticide treatment applications using Telar (chlorsulfuron) on 35 ha, Karmex DF (diuron) on 61.9 ha and Vantage/Weed-Master Glyphosate 41 (glyphosate) on 94.81 ha, to be made using truck mounted spray boom, power hose/nozzle and back pack sprayer. Non-pesticide treatment methods are mechanical brush cutting, manual brush cutting, ballast cleaning, ballast reconstruction and surfacing between New Westminster and Chilliwack; Trapp Railway Yard in New Westminster and Burnaby; Sixteenth (16th) Street Railway Yard in New Westminster, Queensboro, New Westminster and Annacis Island, Delta, annually commencing October 1, 2010 with completion on September 30, 2015. Wood preservative pesticide treatment applications using Timber Fume (chloropicrin) and CU-89-RTU (copper naphthenate) by internal insertion/injection into drilled holes in the affected members that will be tightly plugged to ensure that the pesticide does not enter into a body of water or other environmentally sensitive area. A copy of the Pest Management Plan Application and maps of the proposed treatment areas may be viewed at Southern Railway of British Columbia Limited ofﬁces at 2102 River Drive, New Westminster, B. C. or 34520 Vye Road Abbotsford, B.C. during normal working hours. A person wishing to contribute information about a proposed treatment site, relevant to the development of the pest management plan, may send copies of the information to the applicant at the address above within 30 days of the publication of this notice.
