Navy pilots honoured on Cypress Memorial cairn erected at crash site more than 50 years later BRENT RICHTER brichter@nsnews.com

More than 50 years after their military jet

crashed in Cypress Provincial Park, two Canadian navy pilots who were largely forgotten now have a memorial.

A crowd of active and veteran members of the Canadian Armed Forces gathered at the top of Mount Strachan Thursday morning to honour Lt. Norman Ogden and Lt. Donald Clark.

The navy scrambled

search teams on Nov. 23, 1963 after Ogden and Clark’s Lockheed T-33 jet lost contact with Vancouver air traffic control and disappeared from radar.

They were on a training flight to keep their proficiency up and

sharpen their ability to fly using only their instruments. After a difficult three-day search, a navy helicopter pilot spotted the wreckage atop Mount Strachan, next to what is today Cypress Mountain’s T-33 run.

From there, the team

had to organize a recovery effort to retrieve Ogden and Clark’s bodies by foot.

“It was nothing like it is today. It was all bush,” said retired RCAF commander Al Horner, See Event page 5

This Sunday, a West Vancouver woman will attempt to set a Guinness record for the world’s largest collection of Scooby-Doo memorabilia — and she’ll get away with it too, if not for you meddling kids.

Becky Findlay has plush, plastic and porcelain versions of the cowardly, comedic canine, as well as tattoos inspired by the cartoon on her arm and back. Including comics, toys, posters and records, she estimates her collection comprises more than 1,000 pieces.

Jinkies!

Findlay, 34, was a casual fan of Hanna-Barbera’s Sunday morning cartoon.

“I wasn’t obsessed or anything,” she says.

She’d collected coins and bus transfers, but like a teenage detective who See Scooby page 3

Ironworkers sidewalk work delayed over steel beams Project to widen sidewalks now running two months behind BRENT RICHTER brichter@nsnews.com

There’s a stall on the bridge and for once, it’s not a semi in the centre lane.

The Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure’s $20million project to widen the sidewalks of the Ironworkers Memorial Second Narrows Crossing is about two months behind schedule after engineers discovered they would need custom fabricated steel to finish the job.

“It’s basically a rehab project. When you open up a bridge, you find things that aren’t what you expect,” said project manager Jay Porter. “As we were working, we learned that we need to get some custom components made up.”

Specifically, the contractor needed to get new steel forebeam extensions that will support the new sidewalk and fence.

“Basically it means everything,” Porter said.

“Until we get that done, the sidewalk and fence won’t start going in.”

The ministry is replacing the original 1.2-metre sidewalk with a 2.5-metre one and adding a three-metre high fence made of galvanized steel posts designed specifically to prevent people from

climbing over.

The bridge’s east sidewalk is now forecast to reopen in October 2015 now instead of August of next year.

Porter said the work will not increase the project’s cost.

While that portion of the project has been delayed, the contractors have been replacing street lamps and getting a head start on the west sidewalk, though it will remain open.

Other than this one hiccup, everything is coming along well and work on the east side will resume shortly, Porter said.

“Once the support and reinforcing system is in, you’ll start to see the sidewalk and fence go in very quickly.You should start seeing that in September and October,” he said.

Cyclists and pedestrians meanwhile, have been forced to share the west sidewalk or find a new way over Burrard Inlet.

News of the delay has been taken in stride by members of Lower Mainland cycling advocacy group HUB, according to spokeswoman and North Shore resident Heather Drugge.

Cyclists are still just glad the notoriously narrow sidewalks are being replaced at all, she said.

“We’re grateful for that improvement in any case.

Whenever it comes, that’s excellent,” she said.

“It’s terrible for anybody who is using it (now) but it’s only temporary and we all pretty much have a lot of patience for something that’s going to improve our lives anyway.”

Truck flips upside down on ramp

JEREMY SHEPHERD jshepherd@nsnews.com

A northbound truck ended up upside down on a Lions Gate Bridge offramp during rush hour Wednesday afternoon, slowing down traffic for more than an hour.

The driver, a 24-yearold Whistler woman, appeared to lose control of

the 1998 Ford Explorer at the north end of the bridge near the West Vancouver off-ramp at around 5 p.m., blocking traffic “for quite some time,” according to West Vancouver Police Department spokesman Const. Jeff Palmer.

“Based on the tire marks, the vehicle came into the turn, skidded . . . and then got into the grass

on the inside of the turn and tried to steer back out and ended up rolling,” Palmer said.

The upturned vehicle was cleared shortly after 6 p.m.

The driver and her two passengers, both in their early 20s, were unharmed.

The three were checked at the scene but did not require medical help, said

Palmer.

Damage to the truck was estimated at $5,000.

“They’re looking at it as pretty much a write-off,” Palmer said.

There were no independent witnesses to the incident and police did not issue any violation tickets, said Palmer.

“The driver will have to deal with ICBC,” he said.

observes the apparition of a dead sea captain behind her, Findlay quickly changed direction one night.

She was looking through a Granville Street shop when she came across a Scooby-Doo candy machine that dispensed bone-shaped sweets.

Much like Scooby and Shaggy, Findlay decided she’d do it for a Scooby snack.

“I was like, ‘Oh my God, Scooby-Doo! You never see anything Scooby-Doo!’” She forked over $8 and a collection was born.

Over the next 17 years Findlay has watched her collection grow, particularly after the release of the 2002 movie featuring Freddie Prinze, Jr. and Sarah Michelle Gellar.

“After the movie came out, then you saw ScoobyDoo stuff everywhere,” Findlay says.

The collection includes vintage comics and a Scooby-Doo Christmas album she has yet to listen to, because she doesn’t have a record player anymore.

She picked up a porcelain doll of ScoobyDoo for $110 after an eBay bidding war and snagged a stand-up pinball machine after first spotting it on Craigslist.

“I was like, ‘Oh my God, I need this,’” she recalls.

“By the time I had called they had already sold it. I was like, ‘Oh, you gotta be

joking.’”

She eventually found a vendor in Burnaby who sold Findlay the display model for $32.

She wears her most expensive items.

Findlay has Daphne and Velma tattooed on her back, as well as a quarter-sleeve featuring Scooby and a collage of ghosts including Captain Cutler and Jeepers It’s The Creeper.

After sizing up her collection, Findlay thought about immortalizing her store of Scooby in the pages of Guinness.

“I had my first child in 2008 and that slowed things down,” she says, noting that her daughter was singing the show’s theme song at two-and-ahalf years old.

Findlay was initially rebuffed by Guinness in 2012, but decided to keep on applying.

Earlier this summer, she got an email letting her know that she was eligible for the new category.

She hopes to set the record this Sunday.

Asked why she focused on a TV show she enjoyed only moderately, Findlay hesitates.

“I don’t really know what happened,” she says. “I guess I found it a challenge.”

Asked if collecting ever crossed the line into compulsive behaviour, Findlay laughs.

“I would say it’s healthy.

Others might disagree,” she says good naturedly.

Alleged gang hitman was NV garbage man JANE SEYD jseyd@nsnews.com

In a plot twist worthy of the Sopranos, a man police allege was a hit man for MetroVancouver’s notorious United Nations gang was working a day job as a garbage collector for the District of North Vancouver at the time one of the killings he has been charged with was carried out.

Cory Vallee, 37, was arrested earlier this month in Guadalajara, Mexico after almost four years on the lam.

He faces two first-degree murder charges plus a charge of conspiracy to commit murder connected to the Lower Mainland’s gang war.

Vallee was charged in

January 2011 with the fatal shootings of Jonathan Barber on May 8, 2008 and Kevin LeClair on Feb. 6, 2009.

Barber, 24, was shot in Burnaby in what is believed to be a case of mistaken identity after he picked up a car belonging to one of the Bacon brothers — ringleaders of the Red Scorpions gang — to install a stereo.

At the time of Barber’s killing,Vallee was working as a garbage man for the District of North Vancouver, a job he held from April 2006 to October 2008.

LeClair was gunned down in a Langley parking lot.

Vallee had been on Interpol’s most wanted list since murder charges were laid. His next court appearance is Sept. 26.

Event emotional for friend

From page 1

a friend of Ogden and Clark’s and the man who led the search for the crash site.

There’s still no clear answer as to what caused the plane to go down, Horner added.

“We still don’t know how it happened. There’s lots of conjecture but no one really knows,” Horner said. “We knew that they were going fairly fast by the debris field. I guess, about the only lesson learned, was that it was quick.”

Ogden and Clark’s disappearance and the search effort was skipped over by most news outlets as much of the world was in shock over another event — the assassination of U.S. President John F. Kennedy one day earlier.

The memorial ws spearheaded by Richard Dunn, member of the Air Force Officer’s Association and the Battle of Britain Memorial Fund, which helped pay for the memorial along with support from the RCAF 192nd Construction Engineering Flight.

Dunn went looking for the crash site last August and found only a small plaque with little more than an explanation of the crash, and nothing in memory of the pilots who

were killed.

Though Thursday’s event wasn’t meant to be sad like a funeral, it was still highly emotional for Horner as it was his first time back to the top of

“It’s amazing how things come back. As I was driving out here, we had the mist and cloud tops up here and

I thought ‘Bloody hell.

Here we go again,’” he said.

At the time, the navy had only a small air fleet so the pilots all knew each other well.

“We worked together.

We flew together. When we were on the carrier, we lived together. We socialized together,” Horner said. “Don Clark was with me when I met my wife in Gibraltar but that’s a different story….

It’s a rather trite phrase, but in those days we were a band of brothers. It’s very true.”

Today, Ogden and Clark are buried in adjacent plots at a navy cemetery in Esquimalt.

Ogden’s eldest daughter, Dale Lane, was on hand to receive the Royal Navy Ensign that shrouded the monument.

“It was a bit of a shock getting the call all these years later, out of the blue,” Lane said of learning about the effort to create the memorial. “I think it’s fantastic. I love it. I just hope they keep doing this. It means a lot to our family.”

Despite their best efforts, organizers had no luck tracking down any of Clark’s family.

The ceremony ended with one of today’s navy search planes conducting a flyover as the sun broke through the clouds.

VIEWPOINT PUBLISHED BY NORTH SHORE NEWS A DIVISION OF LMP PUBLICATION LIMITED PARTNERSHIP, 100-126 EAST 15TH STREET, NORTH VANCOUVER, B.C. V7L 2P9. DOUG FOOT, PUBLISHER. CANADIAN PUBLICATIONS MAIL SALES PRODUCT AGREEMENT NO. 40010186.

Ready, steady I

t seems appropriately symbolic that as Labour Day approaches, Vince Ready — the patron saint of labour negotiations in B.C. —finally waded into the teachers’ strike Thursday, holding a meeting with negotiators for both sides.

There are certainly a lot of hopes riding on his skills.

While ‘back to school’ time is usually one of excitement and preparation, this year it’s felt more like a doomsday clock ticking down.

Both sides appeared to take the summer off, waiting until September rolled into view before surfacing in the media. That didn’t exactly inspire confidence.

Now parents and students will just have to see if Ready can work one of his usual miracles.

Ironically, the two sides aren’t that far apart on wages. But the issues keeping

the sides apart — including class size and composition limits — are far more complex and emotional.

For its part, the province has stuck to a strategy of extreme meanness in the dispute. Starving the teachers union into submission appears to be the government’s MO — reinforced by the repeated statement that it won’t legislate a settlement. The BCTF’s own fallback position isn’t obvious — except to hope that someone imposes a not-too-terrible settlement before Thanksgiving waddles into sight.

Ready has his work cut out for him.

But after decades of pulling off amazing feats in some of B.C.’s toughest labour environments, we know he’s up to the task.

Here’s hoping for the almost impossible in time for Labour Day, so that kids can get back to class.

Process: the last refuge of politicians It’s always good to know the people you’re dealing with, wouldn’t you say?

Especially if there’s a dollar sign involved. Also if your personal well-being — basic air, water, protection from loud, hurtful explosions — are in the mix.

So, since we are unlikely to meet him face-to-face, here is an introduction to Sukanto Tanoto, the Indonesian billionaire whose Woodfibre LNG company proposes a liquefied natural gas plant and its transport through Howe Sound to China.

Opponents of the plant, prominently Eoin Finn and Mona HelcermanasBenge, provided important background — especially crediting Coun. Bill Soprovich.

John Vidal, environment editor of London’s Observer, reported in May

Trevor Lautens

This Just In

that one of Tanoto’s many companies, world-class palm oil company Asian Agri, evaded taxes through shell companies in boltholes like the British Virgin Islands. Ironic name — the British Virgins are among top prostitutes for global tax evaders. A Jakarta court fined Asian Agri US$205 million. At these heights, just a small book entry in the costs of doing business.

International tax evasion of trillions of dollars, long condemned by finance columnist and editor-atlarge of the National Post Diane Francis but rarely mentioned in most media, fits what British Prime Minister Edward Heath — a Conservative — called “the unacceptable face of capitalism.”

Back in little ol’West Vancouver, council made an eye-blinking retreat from its unanimous motion in July that joined several other municipalities in urging a ban on LNG tanker traffic in beautiful Howe Sound.

Council takes another swing at the issue next month.

This column speculated that the hasty reversal coincided with an unprecedented letter from riding MP John Weston, who disagreed with “the motion, the way it has been passed,

and its timing.” Ordered, I suspect, straight from the prime minister’s office, which, like the moneyscratching B.C. government, needs another environmental war like it needs a hole in the dam. (Coun. Craig Cameron, clearly rankled, later told me that he had initiated council’s reversal: “My concerns were … due process. … I never heard from Weston … until a few days later.”)

Weston, evidently alarmed that media coverage didn’t lay out his objections fully, ran his whole letter in an advertisement in the News — preceded by: “I really wanted to clarify my Pro-Process position, not Pro-LNG.” Ah, process. Sometimes I wonder if it’s a uniquely Canadian invention.

Certainly the first refuge of politicians who sniff a no-

clear-win issue, vote-wise.

Which may explain why Pamela Goldsmith-Jones, Weston’s Liberal opponent in West Vancouver-Sunshine Coast-Sea to Sky in the next federal election, took 21 days after the News story to weigh in — issuing a media-wide open letter days after I asked her view.

She wouldn’t be the canny politico West Van grew to know and, in some quarters, loved, if she didn’t pen a thoughtful, measured and predictable non-opinion on the core issue, while boldly backing “our communities (who) are asking for a voice in the process” — there’s that word! — “and I stand with them.” Goldsmith-Jones also caromed a shot at Weston for being, in her quotation marks, “unimpressed” with West Van council, a word he never used and a sentiment

he specifically rejected.

Politics.

And not to be personally smug.The undersigned doesn’t envy the pressured political class. Arbitrate between mankind’s insistent needs and nature’s deceptive largesse? I wouldn’t want to be king making those choices. Might abdicate.

On one hand: For such tycoons, and for such stilldangerous, still-Communist customers as imperialist China, we should bow down and put our green lands, air, water and safety at risk?

On the other hand: My scorn approaches infinity for those — and they are many — who don’t connect welfare programs with the private wealth-spinning that pays for them.

VIEWPOINT

Federal party leaders targeting B.C. While our provincial politicians slumber (with several notable exceptions) on the summer barbecue circuit, our federal party leaders have been busy in this province.

The past couple of weeks have seen Prime Minister Stephen Harper, NDP leader Thomas Mulcair and Liberal party leader Justin Trudeau all visit B.C., an indication perhaps that all three see winning certain seats here as critical to forming government come the next election.

Of course, conventional wisdom is that southern Ontario and Quebec hold the keys to winning a federal election, but in a close race a number of B.C. ridings could spell the difference between forming a majority government and a minority one.

This province will have six additional ridings (giving us 42 in all) come the next election, which

Keith Baldrey

View from the Ledge makes B.C. even more coveted by federal political parties.

Recent opinion polls suggest Trudeau and his federal Liberals are tops in popularity across the country, with the NDP running slightly ahead of the ruling Conservatives.

But, as everyone in this province is well aware, polls don’t have a spotless track record in predicting election outcomes.

And in this province, it would take a significant shift in voting patterns to deny the Conservatives

a majority of B.C. seats in the 2015 election. The party currently holds 21 of 36 seats, and the additional ridings, coupled with the redrawing of electoral boundaries, favours that party more than the others. In fact, transposing the votes from the last election over the new ridings would give the Conservatives 28 of 42 seats.

And most of the Conservative-held seats

were won by large margins.

Those transposed results show the party has support of more than 50 per cent of the voters in 17 ridings.

But if the polls are correct and the Conservatives are indeed losing support, the party could be vulnerable in four of the new ridings and perhaps a couple of others.

The party most likely to benefit from any Conservative slippage is the NDP, as it finished

well ahead of the Liberals in the ridings that may become competitive in 2015. This will explain why Mulcair may spend a disproportionate amount of time in this province in the run-up to the next campaign.

The federal NDP has some challenges in other provinces, notably Quebec, where it unexpectedly won most of the seats in the last election. One of its Quebec MPs has quit

the caucus over Mulcair’s position on Israel, and polls suggest the Liberals have surged to even strength with the NDP in that province.

Mulcair’s problems over his Mideast policy threaten to expand beyond losing a Quebec MP. Many left-wing ideologues in his party strongly oppose Israel on any issue, and See B.C. page 11

Climate tool a visual aid Project by local researcher in semi-finals of MIT contest ANNE WATSON awatson@nsnews.com

A new tool for observing climate change created by a team including a North Vancouver researcher has made it into the semifinals for a Massachusetts Institute of Technology sponsored competition.

CLIVE, short for Coastal Impact Visualization Environment, is a new geovisualization tool created by North Vancouver resident Nick Hedley, along with fellow team members Adam Fenech, Alex Chen and Andrew Doiron.The project recently became one of six semi-finalists in the Communicating Coastal Risk and Resilience competition, sponsored by the highly regarded U.S. institute.

Hedley, a geovisualization expert, explains that CLIVE is designed to communicate the best climate science

=V`, ;[`T' - GYU9T 64-3`4 ETY/`43Y2e `T/Y49TU`T2-V 3*Y`T*` 321)`T2' )`U9T324-2`3 2[` ;hkD8 *VYU-2` 299V% bldFd SFU PUBLIC AFFAIRS

into society by presenting information in a way average people can grasp.

For instance, the tool allows the user to plug in the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s projections for sea level rise, and see what impact that would have on a specific geographical area.

“We hear IPCC this and that in the news and climate change this and that in the news, and that’s not always easy for citizens to relate to their everyday surroundings,” said Hedley. “So that’s sort of the point — how can we connect it to the everyday, so that we don’t just sort of think we understand it

in abstract terms but we’re able to relate it to one’s own coastline, one’s business, one’s home. . . .”

CLIVE does that by combining both historical recorded, observed records with projected models, said Hedley. “It allows you to observe them and explore them in an interactive 3D environment that can be used on a laptop.”

The tool is a result of a coast-to-coast collaboration between Hedley, who is also director of Simon Fraser University’s Spatial Interface Research Lab, and SFU grad Chen, as well as Fenech and Doiron, both from the University of Prince Edward Island’s

Upgrade for University

Climate Lab. The current version of CLIVE is designed for Prince Edward Island and delivers historical data from the 1960s to the present showing the coastline and coastal erosion over that period of time. Hedley also hopes to use it for B.C’s coastline.

Hedley said by allowing citizens and stakeholders, such as local governments, to see changes in the coastline it helps them to take ownership and get involved, leading to productive dialogue.

“I think what we need to do is we need to close the gap between expert science and society,” said Hedley. “I think tools like CLIVE can do that.”

Winners of the contest will have the opportunity to discuss their ideas with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, as well as explore funding opportunities at a conference hosted by MIT this fall.

The public is also invited to vote for winners of a “popular choice” award at climatecolab. org/web/guest/plans/-/plans/ contestId/1300801.

Dear Editor: At a TransLink workshop held in the Pinnacle Hotel some four years ago I suggested that we should provide fully enclosed shelters at the Phibbs bus exchange to provide protection against the cold, wind, rain and snow.

It can be very stormy on the North Shore especially in winter as it sweeps

down off the mountains.

They should also include washrooms and coffee machines and ample seating.

The suggestion was enthusiastically supported by all present, including the transit staff.TransLink needs to treat bus passengers like normal civilized human beings.

B.C. seats could be key to majority From page 7

back policies that favour Palestine.

In fact, the further left side of the party is uncomfortable with Mulcair’s push for more pragmatic and centrist policies designed to expand the party’s appeal.

They point to the party’s dismal results in recent byelections in Ontario and the recent provincial election as proof that such an approach doesn’t work.

But for all his troubles in Quebec and Ontario, Mulcair would seem to be on firmer ground in B.C., and his party has a reasonable chance of building on the 12 seats it currently holds.

As for the federal Liberals, it will take a complete re-enactment of Trudeau-mania for the party to find much success in this province.

Justin Trudeau may visit this province many times in the next year or so, but his party’s dismal support among B.C. voters has got to be discouraging for him.

His party holds only two B.C. ridings, and

those transposed results suggest the party is competitive in just three others.

Of course, Trudeau has improved his party’s fortunes a great deal according to those national opinion polls, and it stole a seat from the NDP in Trinity-Spadina in a federal byelection in impressive fashion.

Trudeau’s youth is no doubt appealing to many people, particularly younger ones. But as the B.C. NDP painfully learned in the last election campaign in this province, most young people don’t vote.

Nevertheless, Trudeau will be visiting B.C. quite a bit in the year ahead, as will Mulcair and Harper.

There are about 15 or so ridings that stand a chance of swinging from one party to another in 2015.

And winning those seats may determine whether one of those leaders forms a majority or minority government.

Deadline looming for grants Non-profit groups on the North Shore committed to the environment, public safety or social services may be eligible to receive upcoming community gaming grants from the province.

The deadline to apply for funding in the environment and public safety sectors is Aug. 31 — this Sunday.

The environment sector includes programs that enhance the environment or protect the welfare of animals and wildlife, while

the public safety category includes programs that improve and support public safety initiatives, disaster relief and emergency preparedness.

Applications for the human and social services sector are due later, on Nov. 30. This sector includes programs that contribute to the quality of life in a community, including assisting the disadvantaged or distressed, promoting health, or enhancing opportunities for youth.

LNG distracts from other issues From page 6 approved,Woodfibre LNG says it will discharge 17,000 tonnes … of chlorinated, desalinated water, 10 degrees hotter than at intake, into Howe Sound every hour of every day for the next 25plus years.The effect of this on the marine food chain in the Sound, including herring, salmon, dolphins, orcas and whales, could be devastating.”

Which should trouble consciences. Can we in this favoured area cheerfully let those in distant places

suffer scarred landscapes and the risk of terrible error — ducking our share of the burden? Erect “do not trespass” signs around this pristine ghetto for the welloff and the lucky?

I regret that my experience with our race cries out: Sure, we can.

L.A.’s Allah-Las make the most of their West Coast adventure

Chasing the sun ■ Nootka Sound Festival —Two-day garage rock and psychedelic music festival at the RickshawTheatre and the Astoria, Aug. 29 and 30. For more details go to nootkasoundfestival.com.

JOHN GOODMAN jgoodman@nsnews.com

Over the past week L.A.’s Allah-Las have immersed themselves in a full-on Pacific Northwest Coast experience as they kick off several months of touring in support of their new album, Worship the Sun. The psychedelic garage rockers from Southern California played the Otalith Festival in Ucluelet last weekend and did an in-store session at Zulu Records onThursday night prior to their performance Saturday at the RickshawTheatre as part of this weekend’s Nootka Sound Festival.

DANA IRVING b=m8 !L

“Ucluelet was fun,” says vocalist/guitarist Miles Michaud. “It was a cool location. A lot of people enjoyed the show, we felt good about it.We’ve been toVancouver before but never to the island or up the coast there.”

Between gigs this week the band headed north ofTofino into the Hesquiaht wilderness for a few days of r&r before getting back to business.

“We met up with a mutual friend, somebody we know from Los Angeles,” says Michaud. “We went on a boat about an hour and a half further up the coast (into the centre of Nootka Sound itself).We camped up there for a couple of days and there was some surf on the water, caught some fish, cooked on the fire and had a great time.”

The band have two shows scheduled in L.A. at the beginning of next week and then they make their way to Europe for an extended tour of 25 cities including scheduled stops at the Psych Fest in Liverpool, the Badaboum in Paris and the Fuzz

THE CALLING b=m8 n"

Club in Athens.

Allah-Las have an acute sense of what they want to sound like.Three of the four band members (Matthew Correia/percussion, Spencer Dunham/ bass and Pedrum Siadatian/lead guitar) met while working at Amoeba Records in L.A. where they discovered a shared passion for garage rock and the psychedelic ’60s in general.

They began performing together in 2008 and released their sublime self-titled debut album in 2012 featuring songs such as “Tell Me (What’s onYour Mind)” and “Busman’s Holiday” nailing down a ’65 Stones vibe in the process — Southern California garage rock chasing the sun through a British invasion pop filter.

Their new single “Buffalo Nickel” premiered on the LATimes website last week while the 14track Worship the Sun, is out on Sept. 16 through Innovative Leisure.

“It was a different process this time,” says Siadatian.

“It took more time. It was recorded in different places (with Dan Horne and NickWaterhouse) and we experimented more in the studio.This record had all of us writing individually and then introducing songs to the group and working it out whereas on the first record we would riff on something together and then Miles would come up with lyrics after.”

The Allah-Las are set to play at midnight at the Rickshaw Theatre to close out the two-day, two-venue Nootka Sound Festival

featuring local garage and psychedelic bands such as Dried Out and Cheap High augmented with performances from likeminded out-of-town artists such as Jacco Gardner, together PANGEA and the Entrance Band.

Last year producer Porter Bommes showcased all local bands in Sun Fest 2013 but this time around he and Kyle Haack from Snail Productions decided to branch out and bring in outside acts as well for the two days of music.

“We want to keep this a community festival, independently organized to promote the local scene,” says Bommes. “We changed

the name because we changed the concept to incorporate (a larger focus).”

Most of the out of towners happen to be from Los Angeles but that’s purely coincidence and a matter of taste, according to Bommes.

“There’s a good surf and garage rock scene right now and a lot of the bands are from there that I’m listening to right now.”

The festival starts off tonight at the Astoria with Sh-Shakes at 8 p.m.

Tomorrow both the Astoria and Rickshaw Theatre host a full slate of bands starting in the early afternoon. For a complete schedule go to nootkasoundfestival.com.

VISUAL ARTS

Nature continues to inspire painter Dana Irving displays work at the Ian Tan Gallery ■ Dana Irving at the IanTan Gallery Sept.

6-30. For more info visit iantangallery.com.

ANNE WATSON awatson@nsnews.com

It was a low-lying fog on the North Shore mountains that gave Dana Irving inspiration for her latest show, Atmosphere.

“I was doing the Grouse Grind last fall and just looking up at the fog and how it creates this kind of quiet,” says Irving. “It seems to affect the way things sound.”

Mist, rain and fog all inhabit the collection of paintings, on display at the Ian Tan Gallery in Vancouver, taking visitors through the ever-changing world of weather.

“Particularly stuff that we get a lot of here,” says Irving.

Nature has been a continuing inspiration for Irving’s paintings since her childhood days in Northern B.C. “I grew up around nature, I grew up like 30 miles from the nearest town and surrounded by forests and that was our playground when we were kids,” she says. “I think it’s just part of my psyche, you know, just being surrounded by trees.”

Irving says when she moved to theWest Coast, she could not believe the amount of space within the forests.

“These giant trees kind of limit the underbrush because they take up all the light,” she says. “I was enamored with them. I just felt like this is where I belong.”

The bold colours and whimsical scenes of Irving’s work are reminiscent of the Group of Seven and Emily Carr. Irving says it was Group of Seven painter Lawren Harris that was her biggest influence over the years.

“I fell in love with his work when I was maybe 16 years old and just anything from that era of painting, the ’30s and ’40s, when they were really starting (to) streamline and stylize and simplify shapes, that’s just always been appealing to

F[` +9V) *9V9143 -T) .[YU3Y*-V 3*`T`3 YT :-T- k4/YT]#3 .94W -4` 4`UYTY3*`T2 9_ 2[` m4917 9_ G`/`T -T) 8UYVe ;-44% h-.4`T l-44Y3 [-3 +``T [`4 +Y]]`32 YTK1`T*` 9/`4 2[` e`-43% me,” she says.

But it was in the early 2000s that Irving says she started to find her “own language in that vein” when she was commissioned to paint a mural for the Whistler Northwind.

“I had a big commission to do a mural for a train that ran between Vancouver and Prince George,” she says. “We decided: let’s do it in that style of being a Canadian experience for tourists. So I really got to delve into it.”

The more than 150 foot mural took about 10 months to complete.

“Before you ever paint, you have to draw all of that and know what it is you’re going to paint, and then also there was lots of research involved because it depicted the journey from the West Coast.There’s lots of different terrains between here and Prince George in BC, such a diverse province for landscape,” says Irving. “Then there was a boardroom to impress and to get their approval and they had to agree that where it was going was what they wanted to see, so kind of a collaboration of sorts, really.”

Irving has also painted murals for restaurants and private residences, but the train mural was her last big piece before she transitioned into gallery work.

“I have an old friend who has a gallery on Salt Spring Island and he just put the bug in my ear, he just said ‘you know that mural you did for Whistler Northwind, if you did little paintings of pieces of that, I bet I could sell it.’ I basically did that and I gave them six pieces and he sold them in a couple of months,” she says.

The experience was an

encouraging one for Irving.

“It’s very validating for an artist to make a sale, it just means, aside from enjoying what you’re doing, it’s relevant to someone else,” she says. “In the form of an income it seems miraculous, I still think whenever a painting sells it’s a miracle because so many things have to come together for that to happen.”

Irving’s gallery shows take almost a year to put together, she says.

“That is how I make my living so the whole time I’m sort of setting aside work, I have to also keep new work in the gallery and make sales,” she says. “So really you’re doubling your outputs in order to have a show.”

Irving says the last four months, in particular, have been spent getting ready for the show.

“The last four months has been very involved with the finishing process and all the little details that go into making the craftsmanship equal to the artwork,” she says. “So there’s lots of small things to do outside of some grand inspirational image.”

Irving studied fine art at Victoria College of Art and did a year of postgrad at Emily Carr studying graphic design and photography.

She also writes and plays music. One of her projects, a book composed of both her paintings and prose, has been in the works for two and a half years.

“It’s kind of a love poem to nature, so it’s a very nice tie in with my imagery,” says Irving. “Its kind of an unusual way to work for me, to paint toward a thought that comes from this poem, sort of illustrating preconceived thoughts and notions of this poem.”

Irving is also playing with the idea of expanding her work into other mediums, including sculpture.

“I’m working with some fabricators on possibly doing my trees in stainless steel, so the more conical trees that aren’t quite as articulated,” she says. “I would love to see a 20-foot tall stainless See Living page 21

Progress comes slowly to the fictional town of Fort Dundas, Ontario: Detective Inspector Hazel Micallef (Susan Sarandon) has had a new cell phone sitting in its box on her desk for three months, and only one person in the three-man office can reliably work the Internet.

Hazel reaches for pills before she even gets upright in the morning and spends the day adding bourbon to her coffee, trying to ease a chronic back injury. Not much happens in this desolatelooking small town (sorry, City of Hamilton, where The Calling was filmed) so it’s a shock when Hazel discovers their first murder in four years.

It’s a particularly grisly crime scene. When

a second body turns up, Hazel thinks she might have a serial killer on her hands. Rookie officer Ben Wingate (Topher Grace) shows up from Toronto to do some of the legwork but Helen is shot down when she asks her superiors for someone with homicide experience. Her reluctant friend Det. Ray Green (Gil Bellows) thinks she’s in over her head. He’s not alone: “Your stubbornness is going to kill you,” says a former lover. Mom (Ellen Burstyn) laments that she never sees her daughter smile.

There’s a pattern of ghastly post-murder manipulation to contend with and it turns out there are similar murders across the country. The small team comes to realize that the killings are based on early Christian mysticism; they turn to a somewhat cagey Father Price (Donald Sutherland) for help. The detectives are skeptics: “The only god I ever prayed to was Guy Lafleur,” jokes Ray; Hazel, meanwhile, could use a little salvation of her own.

In this way, the film is equal parts murder

mystery and character study. Hazel is a victim of sexism and geographical discrimination, and is discredited thanks to her history with booze and pills. She has suffered an unspoken heavy loss, a study in loneliness. Her search for the killer is as much for her own cathartic healing as it is to seek justice for the victims.

Many will compare Hazel to Frances McDormand’s Fargo police chief, but she is more like Brenda Blethyn’s flawed detective in the Brit crime series Vera. (In fact, Hazel’s story is one that could easily be spun out for an episode or two.)

The audience knows who the killer is early on which quashes some of the suspense but only underscores the fact that this is Hazel’s journey. The killer is also part healer, and has a novel reason for offing his victims. “If they are pure of heart and mind,” people can be cured, he preaches.

The Calling is not strictly a connect-the-dots thriller: we see some plot twists coming, but not all, and some mysteries are left

unsolved. Director Jason Stone — whose only other feature was the vastly different This Is The End — has directed a satisfying mystery overall, heightened by some superior performances. It’s up to you and your movie date to argue whether scriptwriters should have chosen a different redemptive path for Hazel at the film’s end.

SALUTE TO LABOUR )#*(%+" '*+-,!* $' -&*

LABOUR DAY • SEPTEMBER 1, 2014 A celebration of the working men & women in our community.

Learning about Labour Day A journey worth taking An Internet search for the origins of Labour Day produces a surprising result.

While plenty of information is offered by various random sites, it’s difficult to pinpoint legitimate sources in order to find accurate data.

Presumably, this information is out there, but it requires a lot of digging, and that’s unfortunate for such a significant part of Canadian history that should be front-andcentre.

But take some time this first Monday of September to do the research and learn about a legacy that began with a few but grew to benefit many.

In broad terms, Labour Day celebrates the labour movement in Canada, which helped to secure safe working conditions, fair wages, reasonable work hours, and much more for millions of workers past and present.

Many unattributed online sources trace the beginning of Labour Day to December 1872, when a parade in Toronto to support a local union’s strike resulted in union leaders being arrested. Another demonstration was organized to protest the arrests, and from that an annual celebration of workers was established.

While it may have been an important moment, this event was one of many in a vast and complex story.

The Canadian Museum of History (a Crown corporation) holds a detailed account of the labour movement, which reaches as far back as the mid-1800s. The industrial revolution at that time created many new jobs in big factories, but the work was often dangerous and the pay was poor.

Facing the growing power of manufacturers, workers began to lay the groundwork to protect their rights. Craft workers came together and then small local unions were formed, but they often didn’t survive in what the museum describes as a hostile environment. It would take many years of sustained and significant work before a foothold was finally gained.

Along the way, the government declared unions illegal, and supporters sometimes faced harassment, firing, blacklisting, beatings and arrests.

Taking a cue from a similar movement in the U.S., it became apparent that there was strength in numbers, and eventually industrial unions organized all workers (skilled and labourer) into single units.

Different groups became allies for each other, national organizations were formed, and labour issues became part of electoral agendas.

Over the years, the labour movement rode waves of success and failure. It was affected by other historical changes, including both World Wars, women

Book review

Graffiti artist connects with people ■ A Love Letter to the City by Stephen Powers, Princeton Architectural Press, 172 pages, $29.95.

The walls speak to us through Stephen Powers’ paintbrush and with his concise messages he captures our attention.The transition from underground graffiti artist took Powers on a journey that began in New York where he went by ESPO and blurred the lines of graffiti artist and community service. He painted vandalized storefront gates around the city. Later he painted signs for Coney Island businesses for free to restore an authentic look

to the buildings that were being replaced by computer generated printing.

As Powers found his way as an artist he kept returning to old style signs as a vehicle for his message. “I

made paintings that looked like Coney Island signage, except I stripped out the commercial and inlaid emotional content.”

Powers tells his story alongside the many photographs of his work.

From Coney Island, Brooklyn, Philadelphia, Dublin, Sao Paolo and Johannesburg, he has painted his messages. His words bring humanity to urban landscapes that have mostly lost their way.They speak to the community because Powers takes the time to connect with the people who live there.

YOUR NORTH SHORE GUIDE to FASHION & STYLE

Blunt’s jewelry brings smiles

Collection inspired by an unexpected compliment CHRISTINE LYON clyon@nsnews.com

FASHION FILE Our weekly roundup of fashion and beauty events and activities. page 28

Even if you haven’t heard of Susanna Blunt, you’re probably still familiar with her work.

In fact, if you dig into your pockets you might find one of her most noteworthy designs.

The North Shore artist created the most recent effigy of Queen Elizabeth II that has graced the obverse side of Canadian coins in circulation since 2003. The multitalented portrait artist and sculptor has a long list of high-profile portrait commissions on her resume and has exhibited her work internationally.

And although she has designed jewelry for herself in the past, she only recently decided to create a collection for public sale.

“I never intended to make jewelry. It came about by chance,” explains the Norgate area resident, who previously lived in West Vancouver.

Her foray into earrings and necklaces all started when one of her friends brought well-known Scottish sculpture and installation artist David Mach to her studio to see her work. Mach was immediately taken by Blunt’s sculptures and didn’t hide his admiration.

“Jesus Christ!” she recalls him exclaiming.

“This is fuckin’ brilliant!”

Blunt was flattered, to say the least.

“I was so staggered by

having been given such an amazing compliment by this particular person because he’s an internationally-known artist, he shows at all the major museums around the world,” she says. “I just couldn’t believe he was so excited about everything I was doing in sculpture, so when he left I decided I would have to make a necklace for myself with those words on it.”

The response to her “fuckin’ brilliant” neck ornament was positive.

People thought the expletive accessory was hilarious and encouraged her to make more.

“I was amazed that anybody else would think it was funny or that they would want it,” she says.

Blunt recently launched a collection of jewelry that is on display at Edgemont Village Jeweller in North Vancouver until Labour Day. “It’s really just a branch of the things I already do,” she says of jewelry design, explaining she likes to experiment and has dabbled in clothing and furniture design too.

Not your typical baubles and pendants, Blunt’s psychedelicallycoloured creations feature puppy dogs, acrobats, an effigy of Queen Elizabeth II and the F-word.

“I like the absurd and I often use that in my work,” she says.

Blunt worked with North Vancouver collaborative workspace Zen Launchpad to

“It comes in several colours and it seems like

a magic material because it looks lit from within,” Blunt explains. “It glows by itself in any light.”

Her necklaces, earrings

and bracelets are intended as fun and whimsical additions to any outfit.

Scammerhead captures zeitgeist of hedge fund era Black comedy premieres today at MontrealWorld Film Fest JEREMY SHEPHERD jshepherd@nsnews.com

It was between midnight and dawn when Yakuza encircled the director.

Tokyo wasn’t even in the script.

Dan Zukovic was looking for one more shot, just a few moments of his character, a greasy globetrotter by the name of Silas Breece bopping out of aYakuzaowned bar inTokyo’s red light district.

TheYakuza were not eager to enhance their public relations.

“Apparently they don’t like a camera pointed in the direction of their doorway at 4 a.m.” Zukovic observes.

Mid-level musclemen nearly broke the camera, destroying an hour of footage the low budget, independent production couldn’t afford to lose.

But Zukovic made it out, and he took his camera with him.

The result is captured in Scammerhead, a black comedy that takes noir out of the asphalt jungle and drops it into the world of venture capitalist cowboys and hedge fund managers who hedge on anything they can manage.

Silas Breece, played

by Zukovic, is the straw that stirs the cocktail, an old-fashioned cookie full of arsenic resplendent in a pinstripe suit and a fedora attached to his headset.

Speaking as he prepares to jump on a plane to debut the movie at the Montreal World Film Festival, Zukovic talks with the knowledge of a film professor and the rapidity of a double-parked boxing promoter.

He’s the writer, director and star of the movie, which draws inspiration from the hustling press agent and would-be wrestling impresario in film noir classics The Sweet Smell of Success and Night and the City.

Like his cinematic ancestors, Silas Breece is looking to climb a golden ladder.To aid his climb, he recruits old men associated with famous gangsters like Al Capone and Bugsy Siegel.

Those are the magnets he’ll use to attract party boy investors who’ll cough up the real cash just to hang out with the mobsters and hear the stories.

“In an era when the authentic is collapsing . . . he’s the last figure bridging those two worlds,” Zukovic explains.

And what are they all

investing in?

Palatial casinos and floating islands, the kind of can’t-miss investments that landed Bernie Madoff in the can.

It took seven years to make the movie. During that time Zukovic saw Scammerhead becoming increasingly relevant.

“Some of the ideas, like the artificial islands; I was cooking that up before they were even happening,” he says, referring to Dubai’s artificial archipelago.

The production hit 34 cities, sometimes with a permit and sometimes not, including Berlin, Havana, DeathValley and Alcatraz Island.

Asked if he ever doubted he could finish the movie, Zukovic replies: “Absolutely.”

“It gets scary when you’re halfway through and there’s no turning back but you still realize you have this immense amount to do.”

A staple of film noir is the streak of doom that’s marbled into the story like fat in a roast, but at least as a production, Scammerhead was lucky.

The New Frontier hotel overlooked the strip in Las Vegas before there was a strip in LasVegas, dating back to the pre-war gambling cow town the city used to be.

In 2007, when the thing came tumbling down, Scammerhead was there, completely by accident.

“Literally they were bulldozing the famous Frontier sign,” Zukovic recalls.

He hopped off a doubledecker bus to, “run over there and see if we can pull off this accident.”

They got the shot.

Standing behind Zukovic at nearly every joint and dive along the way was North Vancouver producer Jeremy Dyson.

While the idea seemed “overly ambitious” for an independent film, Dyson was compelled by Zukovic’s commitment to “crazy guerilla stuff,” including booking a flight to Cincinnati for 12 seconds of screen time.

Dyson stopped traffic in LasVegas.

Asked what it took to shut down the strip, the producer replies: “Not all that much, amazingly.”

Vegas was a bit of an exception, in that it was a location where the crew had the co-operation of the police.

Dyson ended up being chased by cops in England after shooting under London Bridge.

“A lot of the scenes are stolen,” Dyson says, explaining their use of wireless microphones and small cameras.

“With an DSLR you look like a tourist,” he says.

Scammerhead premieres From page 29 “(Zukovic) looks a little bit odd, but not quite enough to be stopped by police.”

As he prepares to pocket a finished copy of the movie scant hours before boarding a plane to the festival,

Dyson turns philosophical.

“I didn’t have children back then, I have two now,” he says.

The movie premieres today at the Cinéma Impérial as part of the Montreal World Film Festival.

New tire tech leaves me flat

Design Clearly, this Enclave is not your grandfather’s Buick. The current Enclave is defined by modern, contemporary styling.

The Enclave is designed first and foremost to comfortably accommodate three rows of adults. It is available in both frontwheel and all-wheel drive, and comes in three trim levels, including Convenience, Leather and Premium.

Despite the recent

The other day, I had a flat.

No big deal, really, and not unexpected considering the way that all the construction in this town has trucks dispensing roofing nails out the back like they were auditioning for the next Bond movie.

However, there was a problem. Had this been my own car, I would have cranked it up in the air with a rickety old screw jack, popped on a donut spare and nipped over to my local tire store to see if they couldn’t patch it.The nail was smack dab in the middle of the tread, so it theoretically shouldn’t have been an issue.

But this was a borrowed vehicle, a big Audi with 21-inch wheels and run flat tires. I opened its stylish, well-formed trunk and lifted the rear cargo mat.The car was enormous and bright red and people were looking.

No spare tire. Oh damn.

Result: call Audi

2015 Buick Enclave

Buick’s big showpiece General Motors was the first to market a threerow crossover with the 2007 Saturn Outlook.

Built upon the internally known Lambda platform, the Outlook garnered instant success. Soon, the Lambda architecture was used by the rest of the GM family: Chevrolet, GMC and Buick.

Unfortunately for Saturn, the Outlook only had a short run. But the Lambda platform continues to live on in the Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia and Buick Enclave

David Chao

Behind the Wheel as a proven architecture.

Compared to its siblings, the Buick Enclave boasts the most standard

features and a classy look.

It is the cornerstone of the brand’s renaissance and is widely popular in the luxury, large crossover segment. However, it faces stiff competition from newcomers such as the Acura MDX, the Volvo XC90 and the Audi Q7.

The Buick Enclave received a fairly extensive mid-cycle refresh in 2013, so changes to the 2015 model are minimal, namely new interior and exterior colours and a heated steering wheel for upperlevel trims.

TODAY’S DRIVE

From page 38

Roadside Assistance, have the car flat-decked to the dealership, be informed that the sidewall of the tire is already shredded — no forgiveness in this lowprofile rubber — and await replacement of tire.Where’s the tire? The word “Ontario” gets mentioned. Oh damn damn damn.

However, the crew at Capilano Audi did the best they could to expedite the fix, the human element bending over backwards to try and make up for the mechanical letdown. A tire was sourced out of Langley, the truck dispatched, and I was back on the road in a mere 24 hours.Two days later I got another flat.

Is this just karmic revenge for all those coil-pack jokes I made about old Audis? Possibly, but I think it’s more insidious than that. Manufacturers have decided that the average new consumer won’t dirty their hands by changing a tire, and so is fitting cars with tiny little sealant devices and runflat tires.They pretty much have to, given that today’s trends seem to be towards enormous steamroller alloys with just a lick of rubber around the rim.

Well I want the spare tire back. I want a real, proper, full-sized spare so that I can drive down into the U.S. and not be at the mercy of some local tire dealer who will have to get the tire overnighted from Ingolstadt, with price and timing to match.

When I was a kid, the family Rover had the spare tire right up there on the bonnet, reassuring in its heft.

If you walked around to the back of the car, there was another spare tire too, just in case.

There was a very good reason for this doubling up on rubber. If you got stranded in the Serengeti, you might be eaten by a rhinoceros or savaged by an angry meerkat — you need to be able to get on your way.

Sure, this means lifting the hood (an all-too common occurrence in the life of a Land Rover owner) which is like bench pressing a tractor tire, but at least the spare’s there. Plus you can put really stinky cheese in it on the way home from the grocery store.

There are two issues at work here: first, the idea that everybody needs enormous alloy wheels, big as you can,

and second, that roadside assistance will just handle everything so you don’t have to.The latter isn’t a horrible idea at first, but it does sort of assume that you’re always going to have cellphone coverage (certainly not true) and that you’d rather wait around on the side of the road than perform the fix yourself (probably not true).

The former problem is a little more worrisome, and the reason I would now like to propose the Royal Canadian Sidewall Appreciation Society. I’m sure we could get her Majesty to endorse the idea, even if she’s into low-profile dogs.

The charter of the Royal Canadian Sidewall Appreciation society is simple: we, the undersigned, would prefer more cushion under our tuckuses.Tuckii.

Whatever.

We do not need to lap the Nürburgring in less than seven minutes, we need to not have our spines fractured by stiff-walled performance tires and gargantuan wheels.

Just because we’ve opted for the model with navigation and a few bells and whistles, we don’t want the entirely unnecessary and prone-toflats alloys in a diameter approximating the Moon’s equator.

More than that, we’d like to drive in the real world, where there are ruts and road edges and sudden potholes.The racing teams have pitcrews to help them swap things out, but we’d prefer a little more give in the tire so that we actually make it home. It’s not just about comfort, but safety.

And performance too.

Clever electronic dampers and computerized traction control is all well and good, but when the car is equipped with the equivalent of those barefoot running shoes, you skip over the bumps like a stone hurled across a lake.

Whap-whap-whap: it’s not just uncomfortable, it’s slow.

Bring back the 15-inch, the 16-inch, and the 17-inch alloy. Stop hiring designers who sculpt sheet metal so that it looks wimpy with anything less than a 22-inch wagon wheel tucked in each fender. Give up on the idea of run-flats and give us back our proper spare tires.

It’s time to raise the profile of, er, raising our profiles. An extra cushion, please — we’re Canadian.

redesign being only a mid-cycle refresh, exterior enhancements were quite comprehensive, including reshaped fenders, a new hood and chrome side mouldings. Signature

The Enclave’s cabin features luxurious amenities and high-quality materials. The fine leather is equal to the feel of premium home furnishings.

Buick has also provided nice standard safety features. Every Enclave comes with Forward Collision Alert and Lane Departure Warning. The Enclave also boasts the industry’s first front centre side-impact air bag system,

protecting front passengers in far-side impact crashes.

rated at 288 horsepower and 270 foot-pounds of torque while FWD models return 8.4 litres/100 kilometres highway fuel consumption.

Living up to its premium image, the Enclave provides a quiet and comfortable ride.

Highway commutes are effortless, and while it doesn’t boast a huge amount of horsepower, it has adequate acceleration for passing.

Aiding the Enclave’s calm ride is Buick’s QuietTuning sound suppression system. This is more than just a marketing gimmick. At higher speeds, road noise can’t be heard and the engine is delightfully quiet, reducing fatigue over long drives.

And for those planning minor off-road excursions, the Enclave is quite capable of handling steep passes despite its 2,150-kilogram (4,745-pound) curb weight (for front-wheel drive).

However, the bulk is felt a bit more on twisty roads.

If needed, the Enclave can also tow up to 2,040 kg (4,500 pounds).

While it may not carve up a canyon road, the suspension does provide confident, steady grip in normal driving conditions.

The Enclave feels smaller than it is at low speeds, especially with the available variable-effort steering.

Environment On board, the new Enclave features a handsome dash with classic instrument faces and a clean integration of the touchscreen.

The standard 6.5-inch HD colour touchscreen works with GM’s IntelliLink infotainment system. This system is customizable and offers a high level of wireless connectivity. Not only are you able to create a “home page” for you favourite features, but it uses online services such as Stitcher SmartRadio. Voiceactivated Bluetooth handsfree calling is offered, as it was in previous models.

The screen also serves as the display for the standard rearview camera.

It also works nicely with the available navigation system and DVD player.

Driving the Enclave is no chore from the eightway power front seats, and the wood steering wheel looks and feels great.

Heated and cooled front seats are only options, but the driver seat comes with a standard memory function.

The standout feature of the Enclave’s cabin is its versatility. Available in seven or eight passenger configurations, the second row seats feature the SmartSlide system.

Legroom is generous in both rear rows, but with the pull of a handle you can easily access the third row or increase cargo space.

On the topic of cargo space, the new Enclave remains at the top of this segment with a maximum total cargo volume of 115.2 cubic feet. That is achieved with the second-row folded and the third-row removed, but with both in place, there’s still 23.3 cubic feet.

Features The base model Enclave Convenience is one of the most affordable in this segment with a $42,295 starting price. Leather models start at $47,445 and Premium models begin at $51,545.

Standard equipment includes steering wheel mounted Bluetooth, cruise and audio controls, keyless entry with remote start, automatic three-zone climate control, secondrow captain’s chairs, heated power exterior mirrors with integrated turn signals, rear park assist, and a power rear liftgate.

Additional features, available as options or on higher trims, include blind spot monitor, rear cross-traffic alert, adaptive forward lighting, heated and cooled front seats, and a power tilt and telescopic steering column.

Fuel consumption (litres/100 km) for FWD models are 12.7 city, 8.4 highway and 10.8 combined. AWD models return 13.0 city, 8.6 highway and 11.0 combined.

Thumbs up The Enclave’s quiet, comfortable ride makes driving this large crossover easy and its interior versatility allows you to do many things in any circumstance.

Thumbs down While Buick’s image has been rising considerably recently, some luxury buyers will only look at European or Japanese brands because they offer substantially “cooler” designs. Those rivals also offer diesel-powered luxury SUVs with better fuel consumption.
