Council candidates face off in W. Van ote
Municipal ELECTION
2014
Monster homes, gridlock key issues in Kay Meek Centre debate JEREMY SHEPHERD jshepherd@nsnews.com
Concerns over increasing gridlock and expanding monster homes took centre stage at the first WestVancouver council candidates’ debate of the election seasonWednesday. The debate featured 12
candidates vying for one of six seats on council — as well as the endorsement of the West Vancouver Citizens for Good Government, who hosted the event at the Kay Meek Centre. A tunnel under the Burrard Inlet is the only viable solution to easing the congestion
that routinely ensnares commuters on the Lions Gate Bridge, according to retired MacMillan Bloedel executive Jim Finkbeiner. “The rest of it is just dreaming, in my opinion,” he said. “The three municipalities on the North Shore should get together and push Victoria. . . . Victoria takes us for granted because they know which way we’re going to vote every time.” Coun. Craig Cameron
advised against looking for a “big bang solution” to gridlock. “It’s very tempting to look to other levels of government and say, ‘Well, they should fix the problem,’ but the reality is in my lifetime there is no federal and provincial funding coming for a multi-billiondollar tunnel under Burrard Inlet,” he said. “We can’t even get them to kick in a one-third share each for our sewage treatment plant.”
The traffic problem is acute, according to Coun. Bill Soprovich, who suggested more infrastructure is needed. “We need more access, and if we don’t get it, folks, we’ll be held prisoner in our own community,” he said. Soprovich suggested working with the province and the Squamish Nation to put a bridge over the Capilano River. See Candidates page 3

West Vancouver police have arrested a man they say held up a Horseshoe Bay convenience store at knife-point Monday morning. Police were called to the store on Bruce Street around 9 a.m. Monday after a suspect wearing a balaclava and brandishing a knife threatened a store employee and made off with an undisclosed amount of cash and merchandise. Investigators sought the help of witnesses who were on the street but it was the assistance of nearby Block Watch members that led to an arrest, according to Const. Jeff Palmer, West Vancouver police spokesman. See Suspect page 9

Finding our spot in the universe WestVan-raised, Hawaii-based astronomer Brent Tully leads Space Centre talk tonight BRENT RICHTER brichter@nsnews.com
Slow down. You’re moving 600 kilometres per second. That’s roughly the speed at which the entire Milky Way is moving through our cosmic neighbourhood, the supercluster Laniakea. Charting the path of our galaxy and the 100,000 or so other galaxies in Laniakea has been part of the life’s work of Brent Tully, a West Vancouver native and award-winning astronomer with Institute for Astronomy in Hawaii. Tully debuted his name for the supercluster in the September edition of the science journal Nature in which he and his international colleagues first described what is considered one of the largest structures in the observable universe. “‘Lani’ means heaven in Hawaiian and ‘akea’ means very, very large or perhaps limitless,” Tully said. To give an idea of the astronomical proportions, our galaxy alone contains upwards of 400 billion stars and it would take 520 million years for a beam of light to travel from one side of Laniakea to the other Tully will be delivering a lecture on his discoveries at the H.R. MacMillan Space Centre in Vancouver on Friday evening. While it’s been known since the late 1970s that galaxies exist in clusters, it was Tully and his colleagues that developed a way to
measure the motions of galaxies from the overall expansion of the universe, Tully explained. Ever since the Big Bang nearly 14 billion years ago, the universe has been expanding outward. Yet within that there are some “peculiar motions” in which galaxies tend to shift position toward large, denser masses made of other galaxies and dark matter — what’s known as “the great attractor.” “Where there’s a lot of mass, there’s a tendency to flow toward that mass. In some places, that’s more than a tendency,” he said. “It’s the downtown area of the Laniakea. It’s the bottom of the gravitational well . . . And we’re in the suburbs of Laniakea.” To chart a supercluster, Tully and his colleagues need two components: the velocity of a galaxy and accurate distances between them, which they use radio telescopes spectrometers to determine. With those pieces of data, astronomers can calculate which galaxies are moving downtown, and which ones are heading farther out to the suburbs. The result is a step forward in human knowledge about where our place in the universe is, Tully said. “We gain knowledge that is useful to us by seeing our relationship to other places. This is taking it onto a huge scale, if you like,” he said. “It was kind of a eureka moment for society as a whole when

Candidates weigh in on density at debate From page 1 “That’s quite possible and it’s something mayor and council should get on,” he said. While architect Peter Lambur advised West Vancouverites to get out of the car and take the bus, financial advisor Christine Cassidy suggested looking at the district’s changing demographics. “We are densifying at an inordinate rate,” she said. In addition to tackling density,West Vancouver’s next council needs to regulate houses that are too big for their lots, according to Cassidy. “We are infringing on the rights of our neighbours, we are jeopardizing their property values, we are stealing their privacy,” she said. “We need to reduce the size of the houses that we are putting on our lots before we destroy the character of West Vancouver.” Editor of West Van Matters newsletter Carolanne Reynolds pointed to her previous work on council when she lobbied to reduce the size of West
Vancouver homes relative to their lots. Council needs to re-examine its policies, according to Reynolds, who noted that garages, accessory buildings, and some parts of basements are excluded from the district’s calculations on housing size. Council needs to help West Vancouver preserve its eroding esthetics, according to Lambur. “We need plans for neighbourhoods by neighbourhoods,” he said. Lambur called for council to update its official community plan. Both Finkbeiner and former councillor Michael Evison questioned the delays besetting the construction of the district’s planned public safety building. Construction of the $36-million facility was previously slated for early 2014, but the project has since been pushed back. The situation is “astounding,” according to Evison, who pointed to the project being tied up with the Grosvenor development on Marine Drive. “If we don’t get that right,
we’ll be stumbling around without a public safety building for many years to come,” Evison said. While she acknowledged disappointment surrounding the delay, council’s priority should be in ensuring maximum efficiency in the public safety building, according to Coun. MaryAnn Booth. “It’s got to last for the next 50 years so I’m prepared to wait another year to get it right,” she said. Booth also addressed the proliferation of vacant storefronts along Marine Drive. Council needs to support a business improvement and marketing association, according to Booth, who also suggested re-examining the requirement of second floor office space, which she said may be a detriment to redevelopment. For Finkbeiner, the problems in the area are mainly attributable to one cause. “Fundamentally, I would say it’s probably parking,” Finkbeiner said. SeeVision page 5

Vision needed for Ambleside From page 3 Cassidy suggested the area needs a unified vision. “We have property owners who are getting very large, lovely leases, and no real incentive to improve their buildings, so it looks tired,” she said. Cedardale PAC chairwoman Joanna Baxter
broached the issue of waterfront development. “I believe in a community that changes with our demographic ... I think there is room for some expansion,” she said. Coun. Nora Gambioli discussed council’s call for a ban on liquefied natural gas tankers in Howe Sound. With the deadline
looming to contact the B.C. Environmental Assessment authority to ensure West Vancouver had a voice in the discussion, council made the right decision, according to Gambioli. Asked if it was well thought out, she answered, “I would have to say yes, because it was me who made the motion.”
Ali Mallakin, director of West Coast Biomedius, offered his thoughts on LNG tankers in Howe Sound. “There is no essential danger from this technology,” he said. Max Clough advocated for a small emergency haven hospital in West Vancouver, which he suggested could be funded by private donations.

Off to the races I
n politics, the “silly season” refers to the time during the lead-up and early days of a campaign, when getting attention and posturing is the order of the day. To be sure, there’s been some evidence of that in recent months. But now, with nominations closed, it’s down to the serious business and hard work of civic election campaigns. More than decisions made at the federal or provincial level, decisions made at municipal level immediately affect citizens.Whether highrises are built, affordable housing or childcare is available or the commute is a nightmare — these are the issues largely determined at the local level. Politics has earned a bad rap, to the point where many people like to say it’s not something they get involved in.
MAILBOX
But if you pay property taxes, your kids attend school, you expect police or firefighters to show up when you call or you care about what gets built next door — you are involved in politics. But many potential voters don’t bother with the ballot box, with average turnout in municipal elections hovering under 30 per cent. We hope you’ll pay attention over the next month as the North Shore News covers the issues and we hope you’ll be part of increasing that turnout. At its core, politics is about things most of us care about — how our money is spent, concessions we’re willing to make, the help we’re willing to offer our neighbours and the community we hope to be a part of. That’s something worth getting off the couch for.

Harbourside will only add to traffic woes Dear Editor: The massive redevelopment of several large lots along the waterfront at Harbourside is now underway. I don’t have to be a planner or engineer to see what will happen. First, there will be lines of dump trucks to remove soil and debris. How will the trucks access the site and how will they leave it? By using Fell Avenue and the small, steep overpass that crosses the railway tracks. Imagine those loaded trucks struggling up the overpass, and then rumbling down to the traffic light on West First Street. If their brakes fail (as they have been known to do) the consequences there could be horrific. This will be a daily hazard
for all vehicles using that intersection. Hundreds of townhouses, apartments and small businesses are to be built there in a few years. It’s fashionable to think that all those folks will walk, cycle or use transit to get to work and go shopping. Some will; most will use cars. This will put enormous stress on the overpass at Fell and First, especially during rush hour. I could accept much of this if the residential units were being built to accommodate, for example, the workers who will be employed at nearby Seaspan, building navy vessels. I have a hunch, however, that those workers may not be able to afford these new Harbourside
CONTACTUS
residences. Consequently many will live in Surrey, Langley and points east, and will drive to and from their jobs at Seaspan. More stress on our roads will be the result. Nearby is yet another major development, The Shore. Further development has been
approved on the Marine Drive side of that site. These projects will further increase construction vehicle traffic, as if such an increase was desirable. Meanwhile, through all of this, nothing has been done to improve and increase the capacity of
our traffic infrastructure. Yet that would seem to be essential, given the massive increase in residential units in that area. Oh, of course, all these new residents will walk or use bicycles and transit to get to and from work. Sure they will! I have to conclude
that most city politicians seem more concerned for the folks they hope will locate here than for the folks already here. I am not opposed to sensible development. But what’s happening at Harbourside is madness. David Rodger North Vancouver
Cyclists’ safety trumps NIMBY concerns Dear Editor: I read with interest both your front page article on the cancelled Cedardale bike route and the letter in response from a Keith Road resident.These readers have some legitimate concerns: not getting their way; riffraff in the neighbourhood; shrubbery. Obviously these
concerns are much more important than the pesky concerns of transportation cyclists, like life-altering injury or death. Even if climate change and the growing public health crisis caused by obesity and sedentariness weren’t defining issues of our times, opposing
safe facilities for active transportation would be baffling. Do these residents genuinely wish catastrophic harm to cyclists? That’s the very real risk driving the retrofit of our transportation infrastructure to accommodate bikes. Cycling is inherently a
safe, healthy, sustainable and community-oriented mode of transportation. We’ve made it unsafe by creating a built environment exclusive to it. Fortunately, we have the power to correct our past mistakes in this regard. Natasha Reid North Vancouver

VIEWPOINT
Can the NDP take down Christy Clark? A sneak preview of what to expect in the next provincial election campaign was on full public display at the legislature last week and both the Opposition and the government came away feeling pretty good about their respective performances. I’m referring to the first question period in months that featured the NDP trying to square off against Premier Christy Clark.The NDP still seems to have some pent-up rage about unexpectedly losing the last election and can’t seem to come to grips with the fact that Clark — who they belittled, scorned and dismissed out of hand, and for whom they continue to lack respect — actually beat them with the voters. Given their first opportunity to fire questions at the premier, the NDP opted to focus on the very issues that likely propelled Clark to her win: LNG, mining, forestry and job creation. NDP leader John Horgan and top lieutenants Bruce Ralston, Carole James,
Keith Baldrey
View from the Ledge and Shane Simpson all hammered away at her government’s record in these areas.They quoted -- correctly --- statistics and figures to back up their assertions that Clark has not delivered on her promises in any of these sectors. Clark’s lofty promise to use LNG revenues to get rid of the sales tax and the provincial debt were ridiculed by the NDP (and the media, including this commentator) before the election and that promise was hurled back at her last week. So, too, was her government’s sorry job creation record. And
they derided Clark for her “photo-op politics.” Again, pretty much everything that was said before the last election. This may explain why Clark, as the questions kept coming, seemed to start relishing the encounter. She realized she could use the NDP’s attacks as ammunition to make the main point of what will surely be her party’s campaign theme in 2017: her side does indeed promise economic miracles, and the other side does not. The NDP’s attacks allowed her, again, to frame that party as “the party that says no” to natural resource projects, which her side vociferously support. Of course, her take on the NDP’s position is a gross generalization, but that is beside the point. When it comes to effectively communicating a message, Clark is starting to remind me of another politician with a pretty good track record in this regard: former U.S. President Ronald Reagan. A brilliant new book (by
a left-leaning historian) on the political ascendency of Reagan (“The Invisible Bridge,” by Rick Perlstein) provides plenty of evidence of how Reagan essentially talked “over” the heads of the media and his political opponents. He was given to making wild exaggerations, simplistic solutions or just plain errorstudded pronouncements. But he also continually delivered a hopeful message (no matter how ridiculous it sometimes seemed) that Americans clung to. There are huge differences between Clark and someone like Reagan of course, but their communication techniques seem similar in certain ways. For example, during the recent teachers’ dispute,
VA L E N T I N O SAINT LAURENT

Do you think that a municipal politician should become aligned with a political party? As a municipal politician, I will advocate for financial contribution from senior levels of government to fund projects within the City and the North Shore. Did you know that the sewerage utility has applied for federal and provincial funding of $466M toward the replacement of the Lions Gate Waste Water Treatment Plant (WWTP)? Did you know that support for this contribution remains uncertain? Having a political affiliation, with any party, creates the real possibility that you may be out of sync with senior levels of government which can put funding support for large community projects in jeopardy.

argue about the economy with the NDP. Both sides think their respective “messaging” will win out with the voters. The last election result showed, of course, that when it comes to the economy, Clark and the B.C. Liberals have more credibility than their opponents. New Democrats will have to establish their own credibility, while at the same time convincing enough people that Clark’s promises don’t add up. But that may prove to be a difficult challenge.They can quote all the statistics and studies they want, but the vast majority of voters don’t listen to them. Instead, they appear

Clark referred in a seemingly off-hand remark about the teachers wanting “unlimited massages” as part of their benefits package. Her assertion was flat-out wrong (which I and pretty much every other media commentator quickly noted) but I was amazed by how many people subsequently wanted to talk to me about why teachers thought they deserved unlimited massages. The NDP left that question period last Wednesday seemingly thinking they had just strafed Clark and left her badly wounded from their criticism. But, if anything, Clark seemed quite pleased by the showdown and her advisers told me they’d be quite happy to constantly
I have never been associated with any federal or provincial political party. I pledge to remain politically neutral throughout my mayoral mandate. Offending senior levels of government with “FOR A BETTER TOMORROW” partisan political rhetoric is counterproductive to the City’s goals.

INQUIRING REPORTER Neither snow nor rain will keep the mailman from your door, but bureaucratic cost-cutting measures just might. With fewer envelopes getting signed, sealed or delivered, Canada Post opted to replace most home delivery with community mailboxes over the next five years, eliminating up to 8,000 jobs in the process. Many municipalities, including West Van, have gone postal on the policy. The Canadian Union of Postal Workers announced a federal court challenge this week, claiming Canada Post overstepped its mandate and contravened international law in axing home delivery.

Thanks to a federal grant, 10 North Shore, Sunshine Coast and Sea-to-Sky area salmon projects will share a $270,000 pot. The Pacific Salmon Foundation is the recipient of the grant, recently announced by Minister of Fisheries and Oceans Gail Shea. More than $160,000 of the funding — which is slated to go toward habitat rehabilitation, salmon enhancement, education and community awareness — is for North Shore projects. “While the foundation annually manages the granting process, the real hard work is done by community groups that select the restoration work, design projects, and generate the funds within their communities to match each grant at least dollar-to-dollar,” stated Dr. Brian Riddell, CEO and president of the Pacific Salmon Foundation, in a media release. “The success of our program is really a

intertwine with the saxophone of Chet Doxas, creating a sound that’s chaotic and melodic. One album removed, Douglas’ blaring brass metamorphizes into a forlorn horn, sharing intimate conversations with Uri Caine’s piano on Present Joys. Present Joys is Douglas’ celebration and investigation of the world of Sacred Harp music. Rooted in the southern United States, Sacred Harp music is a collection of four-part hymns and anthems dating back to the 1840s when the Sacred Harp songbooks made their music easier to read by using distinct shapes for each note. Douglas is the rare musician who constantly looks backwards but evidences almost no characteristics of the nostalgic man. He dips into the 170-year old tradition of Sacred Harp music for Present Joys, but the album also features several new tunes penned by Douglas. His latest venture is a collaboration with masterful tenor saxophonist Joe Lovano. Together with bassist Linda Oh, pianist Lawrence Fields and drummer Joey Baron, the quintet comprise Sound Prints. The name, contributed by Lovano, refers to

The trumpet sounds like NewYork at night. The rhythm is wild and rapid, like the pulse of a caffeinated cabbie cutting through crosswalks come hell or pedestrians — and just when the trumpet ought to be short of breath, it howls.That howl is the call of all those nocturnal NewYorkers battling atrophy with lycanthropy — stepping out of back streets, alleys and bars to greet the moon. “It’s a high-energy pressure cooker,” trumpeter Dave Douglas says of NewYork. “I’ve played with musicians from all around the globe but I can’t imagine living anywhere else.” There’s not a whole lot Douglas can’t do with his Bach Stradivarius. On Riverside, his tribute to saxophonist and clarinetist Jimmy Giuffre, Douglas’ phrases

composer and saxophonist Wayne Shorter’s tune, “Footprints,” but it’s also about the idea of music travelling across time, leaving an imprint on all its listeners. “We both idolize Wayne Shorter,” Douglas says of himself and Lovano. “The theme is to bounce off the inspiration of the life and music and vision of Wayne.” Douglas dedicated a record to Shorter in 1996. “As I grow as an artist and as a human, I uncover more and more layers of depth, of inspiration from things that Wayne Shorter has done musically.” Rather than an homage to an icon, the band is a living, breathing tribute to a living breathing musician, who seems to function as the sixth sound in the quintet. “Wayne heard us and wrote a couple of pieces for us that we’re playing that are brand new, unpublished Wayne tunes,” Douglas says. ❑❑❑ Douglas graduated to trumpet at nine after starting with piano and trombone.

Why should you be concerned?
Chemicals such as parabens (a synthetic preservative in everything from toothpaste to shampoo) and phthalates (a class of chemicals that are found in many “fragranced” beauty products such as lotions, perfumes and deodorants) are classified as xenoestrogens. Xenoestrogens mimic our natural estrogens creating hormone chaos by increasing the total amount of estrogen, resulting in a condition called estrogen dominance. Estrogen dominance has been implicated in many conditions including: breast and prostate cancer, obesity, infertility, endometriosis, uterine fibroids, early onset puberty, hormonal acne and PMS.

Today Agat shares her love of raw vegan cuisine and dedication to improving her health with others through her Tao Organic line of raw cuisine.
START YOUR OWN HEALING JOURNEY
A
s the population continues to age and health care becomes a bigger concern, more and more people are looking very carefully at the food they eat. For Agat Mathieu, it was a vital personal decision that changed her life. A life-long sufferer of rheumatoid arthritis in her hips and hands, on August 24th, 2003, she switched to a raw vegan diet- cold turkey. Her results were astounding. “In the space of three months under this regime, the rheumatoid arthritis afflicting my hands and hips vanished,” said Agat. “My biological mother dealt daily with the challenges of this chronic and hereditary illness, and I don’t suffer from it anymore.” Today she shares her love of raw vegan cuisine and dedication to improving her health with others through her Tao Organic line of raw cuisine. “Our products are made exclusively with organic ingredients and a manufacturing process that keeps all nutrients alive- called Raw Vegan Cuisine. We choose to buy our ingredients from local farmers and businesses first. Together we reduce our ecological foot print, we create a healthy environment for ourselves, our children and our planet.”
Available at a variety of organic and specialty food stores on the North Shore and throughout the Lower Mainland, her Tao Organic cuisine can also be sampled at Café by Tao at 131 West Esplanade in North Vancouver. Open 6 am to 9 pm Monday to Friday and 8 am to 9 pm weekends and holidays, Café by Tao is a hub of food and art designed to get you feeling your very best. Dine in or take out menu items include juices and smoothies, crepes, wraps, soups, snacks, entrees and desserts. Everything is organic, raw, vegan, wheat and dairy free. The focus is on freshness and flavour. The café also serves as a gallery to host work by local artists and is currently displaying pieces by Milan Cevela. In the end, it’s a philosophy as much as a business. “Raw Cuisine is so close to one’s garden, it is as fresh as can be. Food has to be colorful, fresh, surprising your taste buds. I found vegan raw cuisine covering all aspects. I also found we leave a tinier foot print on the planet.” To find out more, visit Tao Organics online at toaorganics.com or drop by Café by Tao at 131 West Esplanade in North Vancouver.

MUSIC
Douglas operates own label From page 13 “As I started composing I realized, ‘Wow, I really have this personal voice that I can write for.’” That voice is everexpanding as the vocabulary of the trumpet continues to expand from the Gabriel-like blasts of Louis Armstrong to the introspective grooves of Miles Davis and the permutations added by today’s three-button pushers. “That’s what keeps me writing and playing and
striving,” Douglas says. “You’re always going to walk around the corner and run into something that you’ve never heard before that’s going to be on the highest possible level. . . . That’s humbling, but it’s also inspiring.” Besides his work on the trumpet, Douglas also runs his own label, Greenleaf, which has been in business since he left RCA 10 years ago. “I decided that I wanted to have everything
under one roof,” Douglas explains, listing touring, sheet music and podcasts promoted by the label. Greenleaf is about artists escaping from exploitative contracts and “being able to control their destiny,” he says. Having recently concluded his 50th birthday with a “quixotic” tour that took him to almost all 50 states in the United States of America, Douglas has established himself as an ambassador
of jazz. “I found that there was an appreciative, enthusiastic audience everywhere we went — especially in the places that one would think would be harder to reach,” he says, describing great crowds in Wyoming, Iowa, Oklahoma and Nevada. “I thought about including all the provinces of Canada too, but my manager and my booking agent looked at me and said, ‘Dave, this is crazy enough as it is. Let it go.’”

Exploring secrets of The Forbidden City Children’s books celebrate launch of new exhibit inVancouver ■ The Forbidden City: Inside the Court of China’s Emperors, Oct. 18, 2014 to Jan. 11, 2015 at theVancouver Art Gallery, 750 Hornby St., Vancouver. CHRISTINE LYON clyon@nsnews.com
TheVancouver Art Gallery is offering visitors a rare glimpse inside a city that was hidden from public sight for some five centuries. Its newest exhibit features 200 objects borrowed from the Forbidden City, a sprawling complex built in the heart of Beijing at the start of the 15th century that was home to 24 emperors until the end of the imperial era in 1911.The site was renamed Beijing’s Palace Museum in 1925 and became a UNESCOWorld Heritage site in 1987. The Forbidden City: Inside
the Court of China’s Emperors showcases items that range from as early as 500 CE until the early 20th century. “It’s a wide range of items, everything from the daily-use items of the emperors to some of the more exquisite, magnificent pieces of art,” saysTed Lipman, CEO of presenting sponsor the Robert H. N. Ho Family Foundation, which was founded byWest Vancouver resident and philanthropist Robert Ho. “There’s textiles, there is porcelain, jade . . . It’s all fabulous stuff and it’s all priceless and we’re very lucky to be able to borrow it from China,” Lipman says. In fact, 80 of the pieces — including textiles, calligraphy works, paintings and armour — have never before travelled outside of China. “Most people in Vancouver have never been to the Forbidden City and may never have a chance to

as a Canadian diplomat and lived in China for decades. He has visited the Forbidden City “countless times,” he says, and even he has never seen many of the artifacts on display inVancouver.
“They’re not something that one might just go to China and get to see either, so it’s really a treat for Canadians and folks in Vancouver to have an opportunity to be able to
see them.” Organized by the Palace Museum and the Royal Ontario Museum, the exhibit was previously inToronto from March to September. Due to the extremely fragile nature of some of the objects, theVancouver show is not an exact replica of the original exhibit. “It’s slightly different in Vancouver. Some of the items have been swapped out due to their sensitivity or vulnerability, and it has been sort of re-created for theVancouver audience, so it’s a little bit different than theToronto exhibition,” Lipman says, adding that the flow of the exhibit through the rooms of the gallery will also be different. Regardless of the changes, the intent of the project remains the same. “We hope the exhibition will provide theVancouver audience with some insight into Chinese culture,” Lipman explains.

YOUR NORTH SHORE GUIDE to FASHION & STYLE
Suits never go out of style Dear Mattie: Are suits still in fashion? Seeking new styles in Delbrook
Dear Delbrook: There is a great variety of suits in fashion this season. The trend is mixing pieces to create a stylish suit. There is also a monochrome version of the business suit, with flair and mood enhanced by the colour choice. The look of the suit is modern and functional. The modern appearance comes from mixing the pieces and the colour choice. The colour palette of the suit is grey and navy.You can soften this look with pastels or add drama with scarlet, fuchsia and cobalt. Choose the colours that exemplify your business attitude. A smooth silhouette enhances the functional form. Suits should be properly fitted to enhance a shape that is not boxy, yet comfortable to work in. The look is mostly a relaxed fit with a touch of flare. Suits can be monochrome or layered with colour creating a colour block look. There is a lot of room to make a personal or professional statement with your colour choices. A suit creates a broader shoulder with a nipped waist. This silhouette is not extreme; it is noticeable. Traditional fabrics are still the go-to classics. Pinstripes and tweeds never go out of fashion. They are updated with colour in the thread of the fabric, breathing in new fashion life.Your suit can be as traditional or as modern as you like. Most skirts fall to the midcalf. They have a comfortable swing, but it is not a hippy look. Even the slimmer, shorter skirts have a bit of flare as they approach the knee. Trousers are making a comeback. They are wider, straighter and have pleats. They
create a professional look. Blazers finish off the suit nicely or can be worn as outerwear. They are fitted, yet they still hang off your body. Blazers are not plain; they should have a texture such as tweed or herringbone. The lapels are slightly larger and the body is longer. A longer blazer paired with a belt is an option if you like the layered look. Blazers look great with pencil skirts, flowing skirts and wide trousers. The most modern look in the business world is coming from the dress. Texture is becoming trendy. Prints are textured. The fabric looks luxurious. Belted knit dresses are very popular. Consider a grey wool crepe dress embossed with the black outline of roses. Or a silky wrap dress with a unique print with bold colours. The dress silhouette is professional. For those of you who work in a more casual environment, there is still a suit for you. This suit is not comprised of traditional pieces, but is a trendy ensemble.Your colour choices can be fun and the layered look is very chic. Instead of trousers, try cords in cognac to cranberry, from skinny to flared, or cropped pants with a funky graphic print. Skirts can be gauzy, creating a relaxed flow. Denim shirts come in every colour. Lightweight knits are a nice way to bring modern texture trends to your outfit. Also, leather is a great piece of outerwear. Variety is the spice of life. Enjoy your options.

The secret is in the details as to what makes lingerie better than underwear. In a world where it is easy to spend outrageous sums on a handbag, it should be an obvious conclusion that spending the extra dollars on procuring well-fitting lingerie is worth it. Marilisa Racco offers up a multitude of reasons why you should change your rationale when selecting your undergarments and she provides the details to justify her opinion. Bras, lingerie sets, bridal wear, corsetry, nightwear, hosiery and more are all examined with many different fashion experts adding comments throughout the book. The value and reward found in well-fitted lingerie is something that Racco wants to encourage all women to enjoy. “Much like an impressive work of architecture, fine lingerie depends on mathematically precise measurement as well as a beautiful façade. In lingerie, it is truly what’s inside that counts.”

BOOKS
Writer loses herself in another world Aislinn Hunter bringsVictorian past into play in her latest novel
■ Aislinn Hunter, author of TheWorld Before Us, is among the featured authors at this year’s VancouverWriters Fest, Oct. 21 to 26 at Granville Island. writersfest.bc.ca. ERIN MCPHEE emcphee@nsnews.com
It was a freedom Aislinn Hunter hadn’t felt in ages. Travelling to the United Kingdom for the first time after completing her latest novel, TheWorld Before Us, the NorthVancouver author didn’t know what to do with herself — and she was ecstatic. Penning the work was a 12-year process, seeing the dedicated researcher devote countless hours both at home and abroad to the British-set work’s creation. Things proved further challenging in recent years as she was simultaneously working on her PhD in English Literature on a related topic at the University of Edinburgh. “For the first time I thought, ‘Oh my God, I can do anything I want here,” Hunter recalls of her first non-research-focused journey overseas. “I don’t have to go to museums, I don’t have to go to bookstores and look for random books onVictorian gardens. I’m a whole new free person.’” Fresh off the presses, TheWorld Before Us joins Hunter’s previously published collections of poetic and short story works and her last novel, 2002’s Stay, which was recently made into a feature film starring Orange IsThe New Black’s Taylor Schilling and Aidan Quinn, currently viewable on iTunes. “It’s a relief to have it out of my hands actually. Being married to a novelist surely can’t be easy or being friends with a novelist because they’re always having to carry that world in their head. It’s sort of like having an invisible friend or something. . . . I felt during the time that I could have finished a book but I knew I couldn’t finish the book that I wanted to write. And that book would have been a big leap in craft, it would demonstrate that I’d grown a lot as a writer and it would have a lot of depth
and philosophy in it,” she says. TheWorld Before Us focuses on London archivist Jane Standen, who lived through a nightmare at age 15, losing the five-year-old girl she was tasked with babysitting during a walk in the woods.The child was never found, leaving her family and Jane, who is now in her 30s and working at a small museum set to close due to a lack of funding, devastated. For Jane’s final project, she goes in search of information related to another missing person, an adult woman who vanished approximately 125 years ago from aVictorian asylum near the same stretch of woods. The novel’s action moves back and forth between contemporary London and theVictorian asylum, in addition to a dilapidated country house that seems to connect both of the missing, exploring “the large reverberations of small, splitsecond acts, the irrepressible life behind everyday objects and the enduring power of affection,” according to promotional materials. Hunter had much to draw on for the work, having lived in Ireland for a few years around the age of 18. She also did a semester in the UK 10 years ago as a writer in residence at Lancaster University, and moved to Edinburgh for her second masters degree and is completing her PhD there. Her thesis is focused on resonance and material culture theory inVictorian writers museums. Research trips to London for both the novel and her PhD have been common. “I’ve been transcontinental in a big way,” says Hunter. That said, writing an entirely British book was challenging, requiring her to work hard to ensure its accuracy. During trips, she would drink in as much of the local colour as possible, hoping it would live on vividly in her memory upon returning toVancouver. “My husband walked past the study one day when I was reading a section out loud and he said ‘Are you reading in a British accent?’” Hunter laughs. “And I said, ‘Yeah, just a little one.’ But it was all about being in that world,”

Hunter’s idea for the novel started with the young girl’s disappearance. “I remember early on that that was the storyline:What would happen if when you were 15 you were babysitting someone and that little girl went missing and it was a tragedy but it wasn’t really your tragedy because she’s not a child you really know. I was interested in this idea of what it means to be adjacent to a tragedy, but not really a part of it,” she says. Hunter will offer further insight into TheWorld Before Us at the upcoming VancouverWriters Fest, Oct. 21 to 26 at Granville Island. “I love talking about books and I love talking about ideas and so it feels like such a privilege to have the attention put on the book and on what you were thinking about when you were writing it,” she says. She’s set to make several appearances, includingThe Hook,Thursday, Oct. 23 at 8:30 p.m. at Performance Works, along with Eric McCormack, IanWeir and SeeVeda page 30

Veda Hille song inspired by new novel From page 29
SarahWaters. She’ll appear at the soldout Sunday Brunch, Sunday, Oct. 26 and later that day at 1:30 p.m. atThe Al Purdy Show:Vancouver Edition at WaterfrontTheatre, hosted by local writer and stand-up comedian Charlie Demers. Hunter will also act as
a moderator for MyWay, Tuesday, Oct. 21 at 8:30 p.m. atWaterfrontTheatre, an event featuring Charles Foran, Karl Ove Knausgaard and Eimear McBride. Those looking to go deeper still intoTheWorld Before Us can seek out a collaborative project Hunter completed withVeda Hille. Hunter commissioned the
singer-songwriter to compose and record a song inspired by her new novel. “The song just blew me away. It’s beautiful on its own, but if you read the book and then go into the song again, it’s just really powerful. She’s so talented,” says Hunter. “Romance of the Field” is available on Hille’s website,
vedahille.com. Before Hunter can get started on her next novel in the spring, she’ll be a featured author at writers festivals inToronto andVictoria. In November she’ll embark on a new project, a month-long stint as a writer-in-residence at the Beaty Biodiversity Museum at the University of British Columbia.
She pitched the project after visiting for the first time earlier this year. “I was just greedy. Looking at all of their stuff, I just thought, ‘I want to touch this stuff. I would love to write about this stuff.’ I could just feel all of my poetic sensibilities tingling,” she says. Hunter, who also teaches creative writing at Kwantlen
Polytechnic University, will do some writing about the museum’s collection, conduct original research and offer a workshop for children on writing about material culture. She’s also planning to help staff create an official residency program and source funding so it can continue into the future.
“We’ve been loading tankers safely here for sixty years.” - Bikram Kanjilal, Consultant Marine Development
Trans Mountain has been operating at Westridge Terminal for six decades without a single spill from tanker operations, due in part to the stringent precautions we put in place. Close collaboration between Pilotage Authorities, Transport Canada, the Canadian Coast Guard and Port Metro Vancouver ensures vessels navigate our waters safely, guided by highly qualified local pilots.
• • • • • • • • • •
Tankers are held to strict, internationally accepted construction and operating standards. Any vessel proposing to visit Westridge must go through pre-screening and physical inspection. Only double hulled tankers of modern design are accepted. The Canadian Coast Guard monitors every vessel’s passage. All employees are trained in operations, safety and emergency response procedures. All vessels have a boom enclosure throughout loading operations. Two local pilots are on board loaded tankers during every movement. Tug escorts are required to accompany all laden tankers. Dedicated local marine-based spill response organization, WCMRC, ensures quick action in the event of a spill. Marine spill response will be enhanced.

FILM
WWII tank crew tough it out in Fury ■ Fury.Written and directed by David Ayer. Starring Brad Pitt and Logan Lerman. Rating: 8 (out of 10) JULIE CRAWFORD Contributing writer
Fury isn’t Inglourious Basterds: there’s no cheeky banter while Nazis get scalped. Fury isn’t Bridge on the River Kwai, either, because it’s not hopeful enough for whistling. David Ayer’s Fury is a stark, unrelentingly grim take on war from the perspective of a Sherman tank manned by a crew who is dismally outgunned as the German army makes their last, desperate stand at the end of the SecondWorldWar. The striking opening shot is of a man on horseback at a distance, ambling through the mist. It’s no pastoral idyll, however: the ground reveals itself to be muck, strewn with bodies and burning machinery, and the man wears the unmistakable garb of a German SS officer. In 1945 the Germans were losing the war, and they knew it. Every man, woman and child was recruited to fight the Allied forces.Those who didn’t were hanged as warning to others.
Sgt. Don “Wardaddy” Collier (Brad Pitt) is commander of a tank dubbed Fury. He and his men have been together for years but have suffered a fresh loss. Norman Ellison (Logan Lerman) arrives as the team’s newest, greenest recruit, having only been on the job eight weeks. Norman shouldn’t even be here: he’s a clerk typist and has no tank training. “That’s your home,” says the Sarge, pointing at the tank. “Do as you’re told, don’t get too close to anyone.” Norman’s first job is to clear a man’s brains off the tank’s walls. It’s immediately clear that the men have seen too much, and killed too often, already. It’s a wonder any of them came back whole. Boyd “Bible” Swan (Shia LaBeouf) keeps semi-sane by trying to save souls before they expire on the battlefield. “Gordo” Garcia and Grady “Coon-Ass”Travis (Michael Pena, Jon Bernthal) trade barbs and women, when they can get them. Norman’s inexperience is a liability, and the sergeant has less than a day to teach him how to pull the trigger and kill Nazis before they all end up dead. It’s a comingSee Rookie page 32

Rookie’s inexperience a liability in the tank
From page 31
of-age war story with a quick maturation curve. The quiet moments in the tank are perhaps the scariest (if you thought men were safe in those contraptions, think again). A pall of impending doom never leaves, as the guys trundle from one ridiculously close call to the next, knowing the war is almost over but that they’ll likely never see peacetime.
Book review
Sci-fi treat for hardcore fans
Help kids be all they can be
■ Sci-Fi Chronicles, General editor Guy Haley Firefly Books, 576 pages, $29.95. This collection goes beyond the final frontier and takes you into the furthest reaches of the imagination. Over 500 pages of detailed information cover an incredible range of science fiction. Books, movies, comics, video games and every possible combination that explores an unknown future are collected together in these pages. There is so much fascinating background history on all of the entries that you can open to almost any page and learn something new. The better-known subjects like the StarWars saga and Star
Trek have multiple page entries with lots of colour photographs, while many topics are covered in one or two pages. Every entry includes a detailed description and a year-by-year chronology graph. As well as the science
fiction that we love to watch and read, we are also treated to a look at some key personalities like authors Ray Bradbury, Philip K. Dick and Gene Roddenberry. Presented in chronological order, the opening entry is from 1818, the year Mary Shelley wrote Frankenstein, considered to be the first science fiction novel. From that beginning we can examine 215 creations that are featured in 36 genres covering time travel, superheroes, alien invasions and much more. Any lover of science fiction will embrace their inner nerd with a copy of this book. — Terry Peters
There’s a brief respite in the film’s middle when the Allies take back a German town and Sarge and Norman find a local woman and her cousin hiding in an apartment.The foursome share a meal — and more — until the rest of Fury’s men barge in and get violent, then sad, then violent again. An unlikely scenario? Maybe. But credit goes to Ayer for making a dinner conversation as tense as any of his battle scenes. Ayer is the man behind End ofWatch, Training Day (which he wrote) and Street Kings, all of which focus on tough friendships forged in tough circumstances. He creates a bond between these characters, but not an overly sympathetic one.We don’t need to know each character’s story, whom they left back home: the grit and gore of how over 60 million people died is the point here. A spare, unromanticized score by Steven Price only heightens the gravity of the men’s circumstances. The agony depicted in the film is the reason the real men who saw action in places like the Battle of the Bulge and the Normandy invasion returned home and never spoke a word about the war. Before 24-hour cable news and the Internet, wives and civilians had no real idea of what occurred “over there:” it was a solder’s dark secret. Fury is one of those films where after viewing it, we finally get it.
TD and United Way help kids grow their confidence and make the right choices.

2015 Lincoln MKC
New Lincoln looks good Lincoln Motor Company is currently undergoing a major reinvention.These efforts have resulted in a dramatic unveiling of the 2015 MKC. The Lincoln MKC is a compact premium utility vehicle, and is the second of four all-new vehicles to be introduced by Lincoln. Being the most youthful offering from Lincoln yet, the MKC was designed with driver comfort and funto-drive manners in mind and comes with a host of premium amenities. Lincoln is targeting the growing base of new, young buyers as well as current owners looking to downsize as their needs change. The MKC is an all-new

Behind the Wheel crossover SUV for 2015, and enters Lincoln into the fastest growing market segment against established rivals such as the Acura RDX, BMW X3 and Audi Q5. It’s a tall order, but I was thoroughly impressed
Design The MKC shares a platform with the Ford Escape, and features a unique style.To give it an elevated level of refinement over its Ford cousin, the MKC receives Lincolnspecific mechanical and feature upgrades. Epitomizing Lincoln’s new, youthful look, the MKC sports the brand’s contemporary split-wing grille.This is framed by high-efficiency HID headlamps with
LED accents. The MKC has a sleek profile, enhanced by crisp shoulder creases and sculpted body panels.The low, flowing roof and high beltline give it an athletic nature. Available 19- and 20-inch wheels add to the bold image. At the back, full-width LED taillights complement the front lights, and the distinctive wraparound liftgate combines form with functionality. A nice touch is the standard Approach Detection system.This feature senses your arrival and then illuminates the exterior lights, including

Tire facts without all the friction It was the rain that turned them to the darkside. Perhaps the most controversial of topics in the motorcycling community recently is the trend among some touring-cycle owners to put car tires on their bikes instead of motorcycle tires. They call themselves “Darksiders” and hoo-boy, are people ever heated up about it. Now, I’m not a member of the motorcycling community for several reasons, all of them relating to the emotional attachment I have for my internal organs. Oh spleen, you just keep spleening away there, you little cutie. Not to say that riding a motorcycle is crazy — just that maybe it’s not for unco-ordinated hamfists such as myself. Anyway, I don’t have a direct position on whether or not these Darksiders are a) the worst SeeWinter page 44

the door handles which are colour-keyed to the vehicle. The Lincoln logo appears in front of both driver and passenger doors and warm ambient cabin lighting welcomes you in. The cabin is an inviting environment, with premium materials such as aluminium and natural wood.The available Vista Roof is expansive and allows both front and rear passengers a great view of the sky. Performance Customers of the 2015 MKC have a choice between two turbocharged EcoBoost four-cylinder engines.The base engine is also used in the Ford Escape and this 2.0-litre motor is rated at 240 horsepower and 270 foot-pounds of torque. The MKC’s optional engine is an all-new 2.3litre unit that will also be equipped in the 2015 Ford Mustang. It produces 285 h.p. and 305 foot-pounds of torque.Through the use of turbocharging, direct injection and twin variable
cam timing, Lincoln was able to make this smaller powertrain powerful and efficient. To help improve the MKC’s fuel economy, it has class-exclusive Active Grille Shutters, which make it more aerodynamic at highway speeds. The six-speed SelectShift automatic transmission is mated to both engines.The wheel-mounted paddle shifters allow the driver to change gears quickly without taking their hands off the wheel, or they can leave it in full auto mode and relax. The MKC comes standard with Lincoln’s Intelligent All-wheel Drive system, which includes Continuously Controlled Damping (CCD). Using Lincoln Drive Control, drivers can select from sport, comfort and normal modes to suit their mood while CCD constantly monitors the road to provide a smooth ride and enhanced handling.

Winter tires needed even in the rainforest
people on the planet or b) perfectly within their rights to experiment. I don’t know enough about riding to have any input on the matter, but I will say that the community is sharply divided, and many parties are very angry about the whole thing. But never mind that: what I’d like to talk about is the why of it. Why would you even bother putting a car tire on a motorcycle, or if you do, why would that be a problem? Aren’t all tires basically the same? As it turns out, they’re really not. In a straight line at least, proponents of Darksiding claim that a car tire is significantly better at handling wet weather, and that they last quite a bit longer too. It makes sense, if you think about it: a motorcycle tire is narrower, and designed with the dynamics of leaning a bike over. A car tire is simply intended to remain ideally perpendicular to the road, taking on puddles and so forth head-on. Moreover, the number of touring motorcycles on the road is much smaller than the number of regular passenger cars. Thus, while the rubber composition of both sets of tires benefits from the same research and development, tire companies tend to pour much more effort and money into their volumeselling car tires. So, while we let the bikers sort out their internal beef, let’s take a little look at the automotive tire world. This stuff might not be as appealing as horsepower or fuel economy, but it is literally where the rubber meets the road, and can directly affect how your car actually performs.
The original equipment manufacturer (OEM) tire When you buy a brand new car, it comes with brand new tires. Great! Nothing to do but drive it around until they wear out and then replace ‘em with whatever the dealership says. Well, no actually. While some performance cars come with the best rubber for the job, and
suspensions tuned for that specific grip, many ordinary passenger cars come with whatever groupbuy the manufacturer could get a deal on. With such huge amounts of production to be considered, saving a few bucks per vehicle on tires is a common practice, and you don’t always get the best. There’s also another annoying thing about new cars: a tendency towards ever-expanding rim sizes. You’re going to want to note what’s the smallestavailable rim that’ll fit and clear the brakes when it comes time to mount winter tires.
The winter tire Note that we’re not calling this the snow tire. Snow tires are actually different from winter tires — if you were to take a look at the inside of a rally support trailer, you’d see tires for ice or for snow, and they’d look very different. In the passenger car world, you can actually pick out a tire based on what sort of winter you’re going to have. Here, where we live in a rainforest, it’s a good idea to peg the scale for wet-weather traction and slushy snow. If you live in the Interior, you’re going to want a little better cold and dry grip, and back east, on-ice traction starts getting more important. Whatever the case, you should be running winter tires through November to March or so, simply because of their improved grip when the temperatures drop. The limit is not zero either: when the thermometer starts getting below 7 C, your regular allseason tires start hardening up, and performing worse.
The low rollingresistance tire You can actually get ultra-low rolling-resistance tires now, and it’s only a matter of time before someone comes out with a Super Ultra Mega-Low rolling-resistance tire. Oh wait, we already have that: it’s called the hockey puck. The idea behind these is not actually all
See Run-flat page 45

Run-flat theory has some holes in it From page 44 that different from the darksider guys: for the specific application of maximizing fuel economy, a low rolling-resistance tire gives up absolute lateral grip (by being harder) for less resistance at moving forward. Just think about a Hot Wheels. If they didn’t have those rock-hard plastic wheels, they wouldn’t zip as quickly. Take the orange plastic tracks away and they don’t corner very well though. So, fine for a Prius, not so much for your trackday special. The run-flat This is a pretty genius idea that’s a bit more mixed-bag in application. Why not have a tire that
never goes flat? That depends — do you own a spine? Or a wallet? Are you fond of not having both pounded into sawdust? Run-flats work fairly simply — they have an extra-strong sidewall that resists compression even when there’s no air in it. This allows you to drive at a reduced speed if the air goes out, straight to the tire store where they fix or replace it. There’s theoretically not even a need for a spare. However, there are a few drawbacks. Because the sidewall doesn’t flex as much, the ride can be intolerable. Run-flats also cost more than ordinary tires, so replacing them can be costly — and driving on them for even short distances can often

wreck them. Give me a real spare tire any day. Tire-pressure monitoring Want to save fuel? A simple digital tire-pressure gauge from Canadian tire is one of the easiest ways to do it. As your fuel station no longer checks your tire pressures, it’s up to you to make sure they’re in line with what’s on your door jamb. And by the way, you should be measuring the pressures when totally cold, at least once a month. Tires can lose a pound or two of pressure every month, even if they don’t have a slow leak, so keeping them topped up prevents them from becoming fuelrobbing balloons. Many higher-end manufacturers now include on-board
systems that’ll instantly give you a digital readout on what the tires are up to. It’s best to double-check every so often. Tire choice Lastly, make sure you’re choosing the right class of tire for your machine: lighttruck tires for your truck, off-road tires for your Jeep, stuff like that. Oh, and whatever you do, don’t put motorcycle tires on your car. Even I know that’s not a good idea. Brendan McAleer is a freelance writer and automotive enthusiast.

assists with exiting tight spaces. The MKC was developed primarily for on-road driving, therefore it has a wider track and lower centre of gravity than the Ford Escape.This, along with its exclusive suspension and steering calibrations, give it a more surefooted character. Overall the MKC drives more like a Japanese SUV

The SYNC feature with MyLincoln Touch system enables drivers to personalize their MKC through the eight-inch touchscreen. User-friendly knobs and buttons on the centre console provide quick and easy access to the climate control and sound system.The general usage has improved over the years but in reality, SYNC/Touch system is still a bit awkward to use. The MKC’s power front seats offer a comfortable and supportive seating position
to people of every size.The 60/40 folding rear bench is less accommodating as it is fixed in its position.This results in the MKC having less total rear legroom than some of its rivals. MKC has 25.3 cubic feet of storage space, expanding to 53.1 with the seatbacks folded down, which is competitive with others. Accessing that space has been made easier thanks to the MKC’s foot-activated hands-free liftgate.
