$1M donation to Paul Sugar Foundation Gift in honour of late wife enables opening of end-of-life support centre MARIA SPITALE-LEISK mspitale-leisk@nsnews.com

Newly terminally ill North Shore residents and their loved ones will now have a non-clinical place to go for emotional support thanks to a $1-million donation

from aWestVancouver man who is paying it forward.

Denis Creighton was well aware of how Dr. Paul Sugar has a special way with the dying, long before his wife Joanie became sick with leukemia.

Sugar was awarded the Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal for his outstanding medical service in the field of palliative care and dedication to the North Shore community for three decades. So when the time came in the spring of 2010, Creighton knew who to call.

“He (Paul) was just everything,” said Creighton.

“He had a hell of a sense of

humour.You could talk to him about medical politics, which I kind of enjoy. He was there.”

Creighton spoke toThe NewsWednesday from his bed at Lions Gate Hospital where the 85-year-old former lawyer is recovering from a bout of pneumonia. In May, Creighton donated $1-million from the sale of his $5-million British Properties home to the

They were married within the year and settled inWestVancouver soon after.The Creightons, who shared a mutual interest in theatre, music and socializing with friends, made many memories in the same home for close to 40 years.The couple actively volunteered and sat on the police and

Paul Sugar Palliative Support Foundation, in memory of Joanie.

Married just shy of 49 years, the couple was set up in San Francisco by mutual friends. Creighton recalls tracing up many stairs on a rainy night to Joanie’s penthouse apartment.

“I liked her,” said Creighton, of the moment he first saw Joanie.

Argyle teacher charged with sex crime BRENT RICHTER brichter@nsnews.com

A North Vancouver teacher and director of the Argyle concert band has been charged with sexual exploitation of a minor.

North Vancouver RCMP said Chad Jeremy Smith, a Langley resident, allegedly carried out the offence on a female student between October 2012 and December 2014.

Sexual exploitation is a charge applied to an adult accused of sexually assaulting a minor over whom they are in a position of authority. A publication ban prevents the release of any information that might identify the victim.

The RCMP arrested 39-year-old Smith on Aug. See Teacher page 7

British car collectors aim to encourage a new generation of enthusiasts

ROSALIND DUANE rduane@nsnews.com

Classic revival

“What do you notice about the back of this car?”

John Fairclough stands by quietly as the group of teens looks closer at his Aston Martin MKII Ulster.

“It’s backwards. It looks like the front of the car,” offers one of the kids.

Fairclough agrees and goes on to explain the outer design and inner workings of his classic British car as the teens take turns examining the wheels, the interior, and the engine.

They will stay for a good 10 minutes to soak in the history Fairclough shares before moving on to the next entry.

Grey clouds have rolled in but the rain is holding off for the 46th annual Heritage Classic car show at Waterfront Park Aug. 15. Organized by the MG Jaguar Club, the show features MGs and Jaguars, new and old, with a small collection of classic British motorcycles in the mix.

Jennifer Orum is one of the organizers of the show, a member of the club, and owner of a classic 1970 MGB Roadster parked in the middle of the field among a row of other classic Brits.

“The thing about British cars of this era (is) they were quirky.You look at many of them, they look quite unique.

They have quirky characteristics. It makes it interesting,” says Orum.The era to which she’s referring is the 1960s and ’70s, noting it was a time when there was a large number of British cars being sold in North America, particularly in California.

Her roadster, which she has owned for about 12 years, was originally imported to the Golden State before making its way to Canada.

“It was a very memorable time for people who enjoy little sports cars.There were a lot of them. A lot of different kinds,” notes Orum.

A few years ago, her MG earned second place in a North American concourse (a high-level car competition), but its main job now is as a “driver.”Throughout the spring, summer and fall, Orum drives the roadster to various car shows, travelling at least 6,000 miles a year. She often gets stopped and asked about her car by people who recognize it from when they were young.

“It carries with it a bit of history. Certainly people in the

baby boomer generation have fond memories of these cars.”

And that is something that concerns many members of British car clubs these days, says Orum.These cars have meaning to current owners because they are from the generation who saw them on the roads, in the movies, and in popular culture when they were teens.They admired them from afar, too young to afford one at the time.

But newer generations don’t have that experience or connection so are less interested in them, says Orum. She cites a recent example of a young boy who excitedly asked her if her car was a Ferrari. He had no idea it was an old British roadster.

“So what we know we have to do is to try to come up with ways to interest young people in classic cars because if we don’t get them interested in them, and interested in working on them, fixing them, and driving them, when we die off, our cars may end up in junkyards.”

As part of that effort to interest a younger generation, for the first time in the history of the Heritage Classic, a team of teens was enlisted to judge the top car at this year’s show.

“We think that’s a really fun way to encourage young kids to take a look at cars,” explains Orum. “They’re not computerized, so in many ways you’d think: why would a kid be interested in a funny old car? Well, you put them into the

seat of one of these unique little cars and it’s very hard for them not to get keen.”

Following the group of youth judges around the morning of the recent show, it’s apparent the plan might be working.

Not all, but many of the kids seem at least somewhat interested in what they are looking at.With a little prompting from a couple of adult guides, the youth judges poke their heads under hoods, run their hands along detailing, and ask the car owners a bunch of questions, taking notes along the way.

“Do the lights work?”

“How did you rebuild this?”

“Why are there two carburetors?”

“Why does the bumper look different?”

The owners get into it too.

“Have a look at this.You won’t see this today,” one driver notes of his car’s wood frame.

“Do you know where the pedals are? The gas pedal is usually on the right, but what do you notice? In this case, it’s in the middle,” notes another.

Twelve-year-old Haseem Ladha and his 14-year-old brother Noorayne are part of the youth judging team.Their father Hussein, who calls himself a car buff, is also on hand, and says he has loved cars since he was a kid.

Haseem’s interest in cars was inspired by his father’s.

“Basically, I’m the less enthusiastic version of him,” reports Haseem, pointing to his dad.

Noorayne particularly appreciates the esthetics and technical elements of the cars, and tends toward questions about their inner workings as the group meanders along.

Both are keen to listen and learn, and show a particular interest in a red 1969 E-Type Jaguar Series 2 sitting at the back of the field with its hood raised. Owner John Clarke notes that the Series 2 addition to the name means the headlights are positioned below the bumper.They are above the bumper in the Series 1 version.

“Very interesting,” mumbles Noorayne as he listens to the explanation.When asked what he thinks of the car he answers quickly: “Cool. I want one of these.”

Haseem agrees and says he is going to get one when he is See James page 21

Mayor’s uplifting Norwegian visit catches media attention MARIA SPITALE-LEISK mspitale-leisk@nsnews.com

Video surfaced online Wednesday of North Vancouver City Mayor Darrell Mussatto in a quaint Norwegian town testing out a bike lift that he hopes can be installed on some hilly streets back home.

A local TV station filmed Mussatto in Trondheim giving the innovative bike lift a whirl, as children ran up the hill alongside him.

“Watch out, I might fall off,” Mussatto is heard telling them.

The CycloCable, brought to Trondheim, population 181,513,

two decades ago, has introduced a whole new group of people to cycling and changed the dynamic of the city, said Mussatto, who was shown the bike lift by its inventor, Jarle Wanvik.

“It is really, really popular with many recreational and casual cyclists. It’s used every

minute and sometimes it has lineups for people wanting to get on,” said Mussatto, via email from Trondheim.

The apparatus operates similar to a ski lift and is comprised of a wire rope with 11 footplates attached to it, along with See City page 7

Poll position T

he latest poll, conducted by a reputable firm and commissioned by a group you admire, has concluded exactly what you want it to.

Your team is neck-and-neck for the lead and picking up momentum.

It kind of feels that way with so many polls showing such a tight federal election race. But a couple reminders: It’s still awfully early in the campaign and pollsters can get it wrong (Adrian Dix could tell you a thing or two about that). Riding-level predictions rarely have enough data to create an accurate picture of voters’ intentions (and you know what they say about good intentions).

Politicians at the bottom of the heap like to say the only poll that matters is the one on election day, and they’re totally right. In a country where national turnout hasn’t been above 70 per cent

MAILBOX

since 1988, the game is won and lost by getting the lazy “likely” voters out when it counts.With our history of scandal, both recent and in days of yore, people are getting disaffected. Attack ads are only dumping more water on political engagement.

But a tight race, or the perception of one, is certainly good for democracy as it will motivate people to get their rear ends into a ballot booth.

If the race stays this tight closer to EDay, expect the issues of strategic voting, a minority government and — cue the dramatic music — coalitions to dominate the discourse.

Nothing could be more exciting than a photo finish but this race is a marathon, not a sprint.We just hope the parties, the pollsters and the press don’t lose steam before Oct. 19.

‘Elitists’ make all cyclists look bad Dear Editor: Re. Cyclists, It’s Time to Grow Up and Learn the Rules of the Road, July 1 Mailbox.

(Letter-writer Peter) Black, you have hit the proverbial nail on the head with your statement: “My kids grew up in West Van and learned at a very young age the rules and courtesies of bicycling on our roadways.”

I learned the rules of the road in elementary school, then, under the guidance of the RCMP, practised those rules in an empty parking lot across the street. I haven’t forgotten them either and, as such, fall into the minority of cyclists who do ride within the law.The school districts, RCMP and Can-Bike (Cycling Canada) need to make cycling education mandatory, from kindergarten all the way up to Grade 12. In the Netherlands, for example, cycling education is mandatory. Of course, education would need to be backed up with proper enforcement by police to help drive home the lessons learned.

Over the years, this has been phased out and now we have a situation where we have a growing number of cyclists who fall into one of two categories: 1: Cyclists who legitimately do not know the rules of the road.These tend to be newer cyclists

CONTACTUS

(kids/youth, lifestyle change, etc.) who would greatly benefit from a Can-Bike course, which covers all that, along with some rides on quiet residential streets so they can put what they’ve learned into actual practice.

2:The “elitists.” They are a broad spectrum of cyclists. I will give two examples due to limitations on letter length.

Many already know the rules of the road and, for the most part, follow them.That said, they use various techniques to get from Point A to Point B.The “Idaho stop” is the most common trick observed.This is a rolling stop where a

cyclist slows down as much as possible, without having to put a foot down, checks for cross traffic and then proceeds, irregardless of whether it’s a stop sign or a red traffic light. Many who fall into this category are couriers and skilled cyclists.

At the other extreme is the cyclist whose attitude says: “I am not subject to the rules of the road.”You’ll find them pulling every stunt under the sun as they go from Point A to Point B. It’s this group of cyclists who make all cyclists look bad.

Teacher suspended without pay

From page 1

27. He has been released on bail.

A statement from the North Vancouver school district confirms that Smith has been a teacher at Argyle secondary since 2005, but privacy legislation prevents the district from releasing any further details about his employment history.

“The allegations were brought directly to the RCMP by a former student and the School District has no record or knowledge of any prior incidents of misconduct

by Mr. Smith towards other students,” read the statement. “(Smith) was placed on suspension, without pay, following his arrest and will remain on

suspension throughout the course of these proceedings.

This is the school district’s standard procedure when charges of this kind are laid against an employee and reflects the board’s paramount concern for student safety and wellbeing.”

The alleged exploitation happened in North Vancouver. Smith is due back in North Vancouver provincial court on Sept. 9.

The district has assigned its critical incident team to provide counselling support for staff or students in need, according to the district.

Police said there is no reason to suspect Smith was involved with other students, but if anyone believes they may be a victim, they should come

City staff exploring bike lift feasibility From page 5 an accelerator to get the cyclist going. One foot rests on the metal plate while the rider sits on the bike and is propelled up the slope.

Mussatto said he was “quite intrigued” by the CycloCable, at the last city council meeting in July, and paid for the Trondheim trip out of his own pocket. The mayor is hoping a bike lift can be installed perhaps on the West Keith Road hill between Bewicke and Jones avenues.

“It is quite a long hill and a great connection between the lower and central parts of our city,” said Mussatto.

Council, in July, supported having staff investigate the costs and viability associated with bringing in a bike lift system to the city, and report back to them in the fall.

Coun. Craig Keating, who made the motion, said he has heard from parents who want to introduce their kids to biking about how challenging it is to navigate North Vancouver’s hilly terrain.

Coun. Don Bell said it’s worth exploring the possibility of a bike lift, because electric bikes, another alternative, are expensive and more vulnerable to theft than conventional bikes.

This latest feasibility study is a followup to a preliminary study the city did in 2010 to look at bringing the CycloCable system to North Vancouver.

The Trondheim bike lift, the only one in the world, was around $300,000 to install and extends 130 metres. In 2010, the annual operating costs were $13,000, offset by $90,000 per year in revenue from the lift’s users.

forward.

All district employees, including teachers, are “informed of, and expected to abide by policy, procedures and unambiguous professional codes of conduct and ethics in relation to student safety,” the school district’s statement continued.

“Administrators review all board policies with respect to standards of appropriate conduct and interaction with students at the beginning of each school year.”

Smith has not entered a plea. None of the allegations has been proven in court.

WestVancouver police and an injured motorcyclist are hoping someone from the public can help them figure out what caused a crash on the Lions Gate Bridge onTuesday.

According to police, the West Vancouver rider was heading south onto the bridge in the lane designated for buses and motorcycles around 11:30 a.m. when the accident happened. “He was merging on and he alleges a tour bus cut him off, causing him to lose control,” said

“He dumped the bike on his right side and broke his left wrist.”

The victim wasn’t able to get the bus’s licence plate number or the name of the tour company. “That’s really what we’re looking for,” Wood said. “We’ve only got one side of the story right now.We have to investigate.

We have to talk to the bus driver.”

If found, the driver could face a violation ticket under the Motor Vehicle Act,Wood said. Anyone with info is asked to call 604-925-7300.

Centre a resource for patients and families library boards inWest Vancouver, among others.

“Our life was absolutely delightful,” said Creighton.

Joanie first became sick in 1999 with breast cancer, which later went into remission. “And then, dammit, in 2010 it came back again,” said Creighton.

May 13, 2010 was a “very unusual” day for Creighton.

He entered the palliative care ward at Lions Gate to visit Joanie, and Sugar happened to be standing out front. “And he said, ‘Denis, I think this might be the day,’” recalled Creighton.

Sugar comforted Creighton as they walked down the hall together to Joanie’s room. Her laboured breathing almost sounded like snoring, recalled Creighton. “Paul said only one thing, he said ‘Joan’ quite loud. And nothing happened,” said Creighton.

At that moment Creighton was the most lost he had ever been in his life. “To me, Joanie was my rock. She was just everything to me,” Creighton said.

After wandering around

aimlessly for a couple hours Creighton returned to the room and saw a nurse gently placing a stethoscope over Joanie’s heart. “And I said to the nurse, ‘Is she gone?’The nurse took a couple seconds and she said ‘yes,’” said Creighton softly.

The memory of that day is all too poignant for Creighton, who today rests in his bed on the same floor but in the opposite wing. Creighton, who has no children, said he didn’t hesitate when he made the generous donation to the Paul Sugar Foundation.

“I thought, God I’ve got this money, I’m never going to use it all,” said Creighton.

“Suddenly it just appeared: give Paul Sugar a million bucks.”

Foundation president and co-founder Dr. Marylene Kyriazis said it was almost too good to be true when they got Creighton’s call.

The foundation was established a year ago with a mandate to fill the void between medical and emotional support for palliative patients and their families, while easing some of the financial burden.

Support ranges from

sourcing medical equipment to providing accommodation or transportation for patients or visiting family, but most importantly making all those going through the palliative process feel comfortable.

Creighton’s donation is the foundation’s largest to date — thereby enabling the Centre for Palliative Support to open its doors on Oct. 1 in Delbrook Plaza.

“It’s going to be huge help for us moving forward and will have a big impact for the whole North Shore community because they will need these services one day or at multiple points in their lives,” said Kyriazis.

The 1,000-square-foot centre will be a resource for palliative patients and their caregivers and is meant to be accessed at the start of a terminal prognosis, which can be a confusing and frightening time. At the centre, clients can connect with other people going through the same journey and lean on volunteers and counsellors for support.

“In order to help them get through every day with life when they know they are facing death,” said Kyriazis.

YOUR NORTH SHORE GUIDE to ACTIVE LIVING

Stretch your back pain away Shaun Karp

Personal Best

Time for a little fitness Q&A. Let’s go!

Question: I sit all day at work.When I get home, my back is stiff, tight, and very sore.What is the best stretch I can do to get some relief?

Answer:These days, many jobs require prolonged sitting, with serious negative effects, including increased back pain. As a result, occupational therapists often suggest standing desks, ball chairs, walking meetings, and more, to break up the day.

But you’re right, stretching remains a key way to fight back! In particular, target your latissimus dorsi and back extensor muscles to limber up and provide relief.To start, try kneeling on a mat, lowering your head to the ground or as close as possible, and stretching your arms forward

Yoga instructors may call this the “child’s pose,” but to fitness instructors, it’s the prayer stretch! You should feel a stretch through the

middle, outer, and lower back muscles and it will also separate any lightly compacted vertebrae in your spine. Hold the stretch for 60 seconds and perform it at least three times daily.

Remember, stretching is a

great stress reliever. So be sure to relax, and breathe deep.

Q: I care about health, but I’m so busy!What is the minimum amount I should exercise to be fit?

A: Most of us are pretty busy, but the trick is to consider exercise a priority and build your life around it. Still, I understand if you can’t fit in multiple hours of See Hockey page 12

daily exercise.

If you simply want a healthy lifestyle, plan on exercising very hard at least three times per week for 45 minutes each time. At this frequency, though, you must accept you probably won’t build massive muscles or rock solid abs. Also, each session must be a complete full-body workout with stretching, strength, and cardio components.

If your time is limited,

you’ll also need to utilize the High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) method, rather than any type of slow jog, or “slog,” no mater what equipment you do it on!

And of course, the last key is consistency.

Q: I’m a hockey player.

How many times per week should I work on leg strength this summer?

A: Leg strength is very important for hockey players. It’s what gives

you speed up the ice and strength for battles along the boards. Still, the most common mistake with leg strength is over-training.

Instead, try to limit your leg strength sessions to two per week.

For the first, focus on pure strength with classic compound exercises like the squats, lunges, deadlifts, calfraises, and hamstring curls at or near your max weight.

For the second workout, focus on hockey specific strength with balance

exercises, sled pushes, and various dynamic lunges.

Working on leg strength only twice per week will also leave your legs with enough energy left to cycle or run for cardiovascular conditioning — another key component of off-season training.

Pain Relief!

Experience Quick Relief!

Living with chronic pain could be very frustrating; in many cases people deal with their pain by taking medications or getting surgeries.

At QR Clinic our mission is to help people who suffer from chronic pain, by providing them with the most scientifically advanced and natural pain relief solutions. Because everyone deserves to live a pain free life.

We treat people with chronic pain using safe, drug-free creams or injection techniques to calm the nerves which cause pain and to repair damaged ligaments, tendons and joints, which are a frequent source of chronic pain. We help people find relief from their pain. We do research to find better ways to deal with pain. We are experimenting with a cream that, we believe, is highly effective in relieving pain. We share our knowledge with patients and health care providers. On average, the cream Doctor Bertrand and her partner Doctor Marylene Kyriazis invented takes about 15 minutes to relieve pain and its effects last around 10 hours.

If you suffer from migraine headaches,peripheral neuropathy, arthritis of the hands or knees,very itchy psoriasis is or burning pain after shingles, this could be the answer to your prayers. We have been giving our cream to those who come to QR

clinic for the treatment of pain. To date, the 117 people who received the cream, found that it was more effective than all the painkillers they had used previously. Some people put the cream on only once and their pain was gone permanently.

DR. HELENE BERTRAND We treat people with chronic pain using safe, drugfree creams or injection techniques to calm the nerves which cause pain and to repair damaged ligaments, tendons and joints, which are a frequent source of chronic pain.

Now, we would like to try it officially, as part of randomized, controlled (gold standard) research projects, for certain conditions which people find very hard to treat and where our cream has worked particularly well.

THESE CONDITIONS INCLUDE: ■ The pain which follows shingles, postherpetic neuralgia

participating in this UBC sanctioned research project. If you go to www.qrcream.com you will find out all you need to know and can decide whether you want to participate.

■ Migraine headaches which happen more than four times per month ■ Burning feet from peripheral neuropathy

You can contact Dr. Bertrand’s clinic at Bertrand.clinic@gmail. com or phone 604-985-5381 for an appointment.

■ Arthritis of the hands, the feet and the knees ■ Very itchy psoriasis

Before your first appointment, we will email you some questionnaires about your health to fill out.

The first of these research projects on using the cream for pain after shingles is starting this week.

We will be checking to see if using the cream allows you to eventually be pain free. If you had shingles more than 3 months ago and are still suffering from this pain, you can find out how to get a free, 3 months’supply of this cream by

Brain Training with Neurofeedback.

When you come to the clinic, if you need the cream to help control your pain, Doctor Bertrand will give you a supply and ask you to answer a questionnaire about how well it works for you.

Visit www.qrclinic.com for more information.

Do you suffer chronic pain?

Headaches, pain in your neck, or your back, tendinitis, arthritis, fibromyalgia, burning sensations?

Chafer Beetle epidemic—why they’re infiltrating and what you can do

DOESYOUR LAWN HAVE A CHAFER BEETLE INFESTATION?

By Chris O’Donohue: Great Canadian Landscaping Company

of the damage to your lawn, leaving you with costly and time-consuming bills for maintenance and repair, with no guarantee that the Chafers won’t take root again a season or two down the road.

Have you noticed an influx of crows, skunks, raccoons and other animals digging up your lawn and making a mess?

If you have, it could be because your turf has been infested by the very invasive European Chafer beetle.

First identified in our area in New Westminster in 2001, the species has spread rapidly across the Lower Mainland.

Chafer beetles reproduce quickly and feed on roots of all types, but their favourites are the fibrous roots of grass and turf used for lawns.

“In a way, when the crows and raccoons dig in, they’re doing us a favour” explains Graham Thomas, owner of North Vancouver’s Creative

Bricks ‘n’ Blocks. “They’re preying on the Chafer grubs that are feeding just below the surface, preventing even more extensive reproduction and infestation than what we’re already seeing.”

But the birds and wild animals also due the bulk

“Chafer beetles mate and lay their eggs in June and July, and the eggs hatch just two weeks later,” Thomas explains.

“The young chafer grubs will feed just below your lawn’s surface until November, which will cause it to turn yellow.

They’ll also attract the attention of hungry birds and animals in the area.”

If your lawn has become a home for Chafer beetles, you can battle them with natural or chemical treatments, or you can consider an alternative option such as mulch, paving stones or artificial turf.

■ Does the turf feels spongy underfoot, due to grubs tunneling below?

■ Have you noticed large patches of yellow or brown grass on your lawn in recent weeks?

To monitor for a chafer beetle infestation, cut five 1-foot squares of turf around your yard to a depth of two inches. Pull the squares back and dig through the soil.

If you find more than 5-10 grubs per section, you have an infestation that requires treatment.

A statue of local Lynn Valley historian Walter Draycott sits in Pioneer Park.

It was Nov. 3 last year when about 20 millimetres of rain fell on the North Shore in just two hours.

The heavy rain caused mud and debris to clog culverts on Hastings and Kilmer creeks. Just before 10 p.m., the banks gave way and a torrent of water and debris flooded through Lynn Valley neighbourhoods causing more than $1 million in damages. Up to 17 homes were evacuated and at least 20 suffered water damage. Mud and water from Hastings Creek also washed into Argyle secondary, damaging about eight classrooms and shutting the school for the day.

Neighbourhood resident Jane Creed was new to the area, having moved there with her family just that year. It was quite an introduction.

“I think with the floods last year we saw that the community really gets out and rallies for each other,” she says.

The sentiment supports her view that Lynn Valley has a friendly, community atmosphere. see page 17

neighbourhoods from page 16 It was part of the reason she and her husband decided to move their family from the Canyon Heights area where they were living on a pleasant cul-de-sac. Although they liked the area, they wanted their kids to be able to walk to school and felt Lynn Valley offered that.

“I wanted more mobility for my kids and more independence for them,” she notes. “I think Lynn Valley offers you the opportunity to get out of your car.”

With amenities and outdoor recreation in close proximity, Creed says the neighbourhood is more accessible. “It’s a really family-friendly environment,” she notes. “There’s a sense of neighbourhood.” Kilmer Park in particular is a great place to join others from the area and watch community sports, especially in the summer, she adds.When asked if the neighbourhood has a distinct flavour, she pauses briefly before answering: “I guess it’s kind of homey.”

Traffic, however, seems to be getting worse in the area since the family moved there, and Creed says she would like to see more “mom-and-pop” stores run by locals and managed by locals. “They offer what the community needs then,” she explains.

Living so close to popular hiking trails is definitely a perk for Creed’s active family, but it does come with a small price: larger crowds during the peak of tourism season.This summer seemed particularly busy, and Creed says there were lineups for the Lynn Canyon Suspension Bridge, which she hasn’t seen before. However, “I love to see it accessed,” she notes.

Nestled between Mount Fromme and Mount Seymour, Lynn Valley boasts a bevy of forested playground including Lynn Headwaters Regional Park and the Lower Seymour Conservation Reserve.

Due to its heavily treed landscape, it’s not surprising the neighbourhood grew up around the lumber industry.

Originally the territory of the Coast Salish people and their descendents for many generations, European settlement of the area began in the early 1900s.The book Early Days in LynnValley by Walter Draycott notes that the neighbourhood was originally known as Shaketown, perhaps named after the shake-sided shacks used to house early settlers, or the cedar shakes (wooden shingles) produced by the lumber mill.The

name was eventually changed to Lynn Valley, and the book notes it was a misspelling of the pioneering “Linn” family name.

A bronze statue of Draycott sits on a bench in Pioneer Park as a tribute to the local historian and author. A longtime Lynn Valley resident, Draycott wrote many accounts of his life there, including history and details of local plants and animals.

According to Draycott’s book, Lynn Canyon Park was the first park in the area and hosted the first Lynn Valley Day in 1912.

The community event continues, more than 100 years later.

It is one of many events in the neighbourhood that contribute a family-friendly feel.

Jim Lanctot is a local Realtor, who moved to Lynn Valley with his wife 20 years ago to raise a family.They now have three kids, and Lanctot describes the neighbourhood as safe and comfortable, featuring a multi-generational demographic.

Lots of younger families have moved into the area, while older parents and grandparents remain after raising their own kids there. Lanctot describes Lynn Valley residents as “humble” and “happy to be there.”

“I love it. If nothing was to change I’d be very happy to be here and raise my family and grow old,” he adds.

But change has happened in the neighbourhood over the years. It was only about three decades ago when the area was considered “the wrong side of the tracks.”

In keeping with the current housing trend, however, Lynn Valley is now as expensive as other areas on the North Shore, and although there aren’t many “monster” homes going up, older homes are getting replaced with newer ones.

Lot sizes range from 33 to 70 feet, and the average full-size lot is about 50 by 130 feet, notes Lanctot.

“It’s no big deal to have a 33-foot lot in Lynn Valley because you have access to so much outside of your own property to do,” he adds.

The design of the neighbourhood lends itself to communitybuilding, he says, noting the road system features lots of cul-de-sacs where residents can easily get to know one another.

The geography also lends itself to funneling people down to the village and main square because it’s in a valley, he adds.

“It’s really in the last 10 years you’ve seen a big change with the development of the new library and that whole see page 18

Christmas tree displays in the winter are just two of the events featured at the town square helping to bring people together, he adds.

When asked about the future of the neighbourhood, Lanctot says he doesn’t foresee too much change in the next 10 years.There

is some redevelopment expected, though, including a redevelopment of the Lynn Valley mall. District council has issue a development permit for Lynn Valley Centre, which will eventually include a 50,000-square-foot commercial podium and 360 residential units in six towers between four and 12 storeys in height. Construction is expected to take place between 2016 and 2018.

Lanctot says he doesn’t really have a position either for or against new development, and says the area could eventually take on a Whistler-like feel in the village core.

“There’s some real mixed reviews, some people are pro and some people are very anti-buildings, but unfortunately I think there’s nothing we can really do about that. It’s going to be what it’s going to be,” he notes.

“I’m worried about my parents.”

Recently a pair of robins hatched their family in a nest they built on the wreath that decorates the front door of a North Vancouver home.

Suzanne Wilson, born in Wisconsin and now a Canadian, and her husband Alan, West Vancouver born and a retired elementary school librarian, raised their family in this home in the Cloverly neighbourhood where they have lived since 1972.

Suzanne recorded the story of the robins and their offspring in their twiggy home in a series of photographs. It’s what she does.

Her vocation as a documentarian of North Vancouver homes began in the year 2000 with Y2K. “When Y2K came along, I realized we were living in interesting times,” she says. “I began thinking about what I could do to mark this time.”

She set out to photograph 2,000 homes in the City of North Vancouver in one year.

To accompany each photograph in the Your House/Our Home project, Suzanne recorded as much about the house and its occupants as she could learn.

She began on New Year’s Day with the home of Percy and Marjorie Barber at 1835 Westview Dr. The Barbers purchased the lot on View Drive, as it was known then, in 1955.

It had taken the family 14 years, with Percy walking every day from their rented wartime house to his job at the shipyards, to save enough money to buy the lot and build a home. The full story of the house and the Barber family is at the

North Vancouver Archives.

As heritage houses become more rare and interest in them grows, the value of these records and photographs, in colour for the first time in the archives collection, will also grow, says North Vancouver archivist Janet Turner.

For the next project, Demolition and Construction, Suzanne focused her camera’s eye on buildings scheduled for demolition and kept it there for 10 years, expanding her scope to include North Vancouver’s non-residential buildings.

Suzanne processed the film — yes, black and white film — in her basement darkroom, which doubled

as the laundry room, just as her father, a hobby photographer, had done back home in Milwaukee.

Her blog, Demolition Mama, documents the place these buildings occupied in the community through photographs and, where possible, a record of the building and its occupants.

When the demolition project closed, Suzanne found herself “with all these churches.”

Every Sunday for three years, Suzanne posted photographs and records of North Vancouver churches in her Churches on Sundays blog. Even those long gone are in a category she calls “Posthumous.”

Recently, Suzanne collected the posts in a series of booklets — Deep Cove, Lynn Valley, the City and the District, First Nations lands and Posthumous — and donated them to the North Vancouver Archives.

‘Does the house have a story?’” In combining photographs and histories of the houses and buildings of North Vancouver, Suzanne has created a unique documentary record of lasting interest and increasing value to her community.

“Suzanne has a passion for built heritage, skill as a photographer, and the determination to see a project through to completion,” says Turner.

“She’s had the vision, in all her projects, of making the photographs and research she has accumulated available for future generations. The North Vancouver Archives is very grateful to Suzanne

for the donation of these invaluable resources to our holdings.”

Your House/Our Home, Demolition and Construction, and Churches on Sundays are Suzanne Wilson’s tribute to the people of North Vancouver who lived, worked and worshiped in these buildings, and her gift to the community where she raised her family.

“This entire community is our home,” she says.

“This is our history, and it needs to be collected, preserved and shared.”

Home and Institutional Care Available

ASK THE HOME CARE EXPERTS Information on Independent Living Q: My parents are really struggling to live alone and I feel they would benefit from help in the home, such as meal preparation, assistance with bathing, and so on. The challenge is that they refuse to allow anyone into their home to assist them!

I can understand how worried you must be. The initial reaction of many seniors faced with declining vitality is a downright rejection of the notion that assistance is needed. The key here is to be patient, remain positive and introduce the idea slowly. By introducing help slowly, you give your parents time to accept the idea. For example, you could reassure your parents by suggesting a trial period, after which the service can be cancelled at any time. It’s also important you present the support as being for YOUR own peace of mind.

Make certain the support worker starts with household chores, NOT “hands on” care. The more personal, “hands on” tasks can be introduced as familiarity grows. Encourage family and friends and, especially, the family doctor to let them know that they think a support worker is a great idea.

Often seniors are concerned about the cost of services. Keep in mind many of today’s seniors experienced the Great Depression and World War years, so every dollar is valuable!

If they visit some nursing homes they can consider their options, check the costs, and perhaps realise that they would prefer to accept help in order to remain in their home.

James Bond fuels teen’s interest in British cars From page 3 much older, like in his 40s or 50s. In the meantime, though, he has an offer for Clarke: “Can I trade you my PS4 for this car?”

Although he is pleased his kids have an interest in cars, Hussein notes it only goes so far. “One thing I know that they don’t is how to fix them,” he reports.

Diligently taking notes and paying attention along the way is 11-year-old Mark Short. His father John is hanging back behind the crowd taking photos.

“Some kids are Lego kids, he’s a car guy,” he says, noting Mark has always been interested in British cars in particular. “I think James Bond has something to do with it.”

The West Vancouver teen didn’t even know the car show was on but happened to be walking by the park with his parents and asked if he could join the teen judging once he saw what they were doing.

“It’s like he’s died and gone to heaven,” notes John with a laugh.

A modern white Jaguar F-Type catches Mark’s attention at the end of the tour. “Very cool. I love that car,” he remarks.The owner allows both Mark and Haseem to sit behind the wheel, and Mark reports that he likes the way the interior feels.

“Can you start the motor?” asks one of the teens. “That’s the best question of the day,” suggests one of the guides.

The owner revs the engine and a loud, low rumble shakes the grass.

Although he enjoys the tour of classics that day, Mark says he mostly likes newer cars in general. He thinks it’s a smart idea to ask teens to be involved with classic cars to help spark their interest.When asked what car he would buy now if he could own any one in the world, it’s difficult to choose, but he says he would stick with a “daily driver,” such as a BMW M5 or a Jaguar F-Type. After looking over a selection of entries, the day is winding down and it’s time for the youth judges to decide on the top three cars of the show.The adult monitors suggest some guiding principles, including if they knew nothing about the price, which car would

sommeliers and media yet assembled in Vancouver, led by D.J. Kearney and luminary Steven Spurrier, contributing editor to Decanter Magazine.

When the tallying of the 12 reds and 12 whites was done, the results were interesting indeed. B.C. was effectively shut out of the top five positions in Chardonnay. It was a disappointing though not necessarily calamitous showing, as Blue Mountain Chardonnay Reserve 2013 (Okanagan, $30) popped up in sixth place.

The red flight results were more rewarding, with Okanagan wines capturing three of the top five spots, most notably with CC Jentsch Syrah 2013 (Okanagan, $30) coming in first.

Spurrier commented that he was disappointed B.C. did not do better in Chardonnay. He noted that during his five day visit to B.C. he’d loved the wines.

The idea behind the tasting remains the same as the original Judgement of Paris says Spurrier: “to create a template for unknown wines to go up against a benchmark.”

To that end, the wines that eclipsed the B.C. Chardonnays were significant, including a Premier Cru Chablis (Jean Marc Brocard Montmains 2012, fourth place) and a Premier Cru Mersault (Bouchard Pere et Fils Genevrières 2011, fifth place). However, interestingly, it was a clutch of wines from notable (and very affordable) New

Tim Pawsey

Notable Potables World regions that stole the Chardonnay show.

First Place: Soumah River Single Vineyard Chardonnay (Yarra Valley, Australia, $27); Second: Kumeu River Chardonnay Hunting Hill 2012 (Auckland, New Zealand, $35);Third: Hamilton Russell Chardonnay 2014 (Hemel-en-Aarde, South Africa, $40).

The reds yielded “a really good flight, not a dud wine in there.Wonderful fruit and wonderful expressions of Syrah,” offered Spurrier, who also said: “Syrah is very expressive and the vineyard comes through. It’s harder to get the vineyard in Chardonnay, and almost impossible not to with Syrah.”

The CC Jentsch Syrah prevailed over second-place Langmeil Shiraz Orphan Bank 2012 (Barossa, Australia, $68) and thirdplace Domaine Vincent Paris Cornas Granit 60 2013 (Rhone Valley, France $66.)

Significantly, from Canada’s oldest planting of the variety (1990-1991), Nichol Syrah 2012 picked

up fourth spot, followed by Le Vieux Pin Syrah Cuvée Classique 2013 ($50) in fifth.

A couple of things in particular struck me about the results.The wines chosen to compete with B.C. truly were benchmark wines that validated the process.That the winning red was made in great part from fruit grown on Golden Mile Bench (B.C.’s first sub-appellation) was significant, and (overall) compared to elsewhere, B.C. continues to deliver very good value for money, especially in mid-priced wines. In reviewing his time here, Spurrier said that the chance to discover the Okanagan first-hand had proved “absolutely extraordinary,” with a “kaleidoscopic range” of wines.

He said B.C. is not an emerging wine region but a deserving wine region, and noted that B.C. has been growing grapes for a very long time.

“There’s nothing ‘new world’ about what’s going on in B.C. because ‘new world’ is varietal first, vineyard second. If I’ve seen anything anywhere in the world (apart from France, Italy, Spain and Portugal), which is more vineyard first, varietal second, it’s B.C.” However, Spurrier reserved the biggest compliment for his closing comments, after dinner: “My final message to British Columbia,” said Spurrier, “is that I think you undervalue yourselves: your wines are sensational.” info@hiredbelly.com

Sage advice for parking lot vigilantes

Joan Klucha

Canine Connection

As tragic as it is, dogs die every year from being left in hot vehicles by uneducated dog owners.

This year is no different and social media is having a feeding frenzy.With images and videos of dogs in assumed distress going viral, parking lot activists have begun lurking around in search of dogs.Tempers are rising, along with the heat,

and these self-proclaimed advocates have stopped thinking rationally and started acting irrationally.

Let me stress a point: just because a dog is in a vehicle, does not mean it is on the precipice of death. A dog can be in a vehicle for a length of time in proper conditions and be quite comfortable.

One bit of misinformation that has taken on a life of its

own is the idea that if a dog is panting, it is in distress.

Dogs pant for a variety of reasons. Being on the verge of physical collapse due to heat exposure is only one reason. It is true that dogs pant to cool themselves, but they don’t have to be overheating to do it.

They can be well within a normal, healthy, stable body temperature range and still

pant. It’s completely normal.

Dogs also pant when they are stressed, such as when strangers are pacing around their car and trying to stick their hands inside an open window in an attempt to comfort what they assume is a distressed dog.

Some dogs are like that.

They aren’t all happy with strangers around their vehicle.The proximity of unknown humans around a vehicle can cause a dog to become distressed and begin to overheat. In an attempt to “rescue” an otherwise comfortable dog, the overzealous efforts of the “rescuer” can cause the dog undue distress.

Now don’t get me wrong, I’m aware of how quickly an overheated dog can go down.

But being overzealous only alienates people and thwarts efforts towards education.

The best way to change the situation is to be the change you wish to see.

Educate yourself on the symptoms of heat stroke and don’t overreact.

Observe the dog at a distance and notice if the dog begins to relax as you retreat.You may think you are a dog whisperer and dogs love you, but as I said, standing near a vehicle can agitate and excite a dog.

If the dog still looks

distressed, try to locate the owner. Contact a store representative and see if an announcement can be made over the paging system before taking matters into your own hands.

If owners present themselves, be kind. Let them know your concerns without being rude or belittling them. Inciting an argument does not help the cause of education. All it does is make you look like a fanatical busybody.

Regardless of how you feel, you are more apt to educate dog owners through compassion than aggression.

Finally, don’t attempt to remove the dog from the vehicle.This is very risky as a dog could show aggression or become fearful and take off. Instead, call animal control while observing the dog at a distance and wait for them to arrive.They will be able to tell if it is a true emergency. But remember, if you call the authorities out of spite and overzealousness, you could potentially be pulling them away from a true emergency where a life, be it canine or human, really is in danger.

Being a hero is noble, but a hero always acts from a place of integrity and truth. k9kinship.com

Aiming for lacrosse lore

Squamish Nation team follows famous footsteps to U19World Challenge ANDY PREST aprest@nsnews.com

History is huge for Squamish Nation lacrosse player Aidan Baker.

His great-grandfather Ray Baker, known as the Silver Fox, was inducted into the Canadian Lacrosse Hall of Fame.

Several other members of his family played alongside Ray with the North Shore Indians, a team that was a phenomenon, playing matches in front of large and loud crowds and contending for national titles.The names of the players have become legendary, the entire team enshrined in the B.C. Sports Hall of Fame.

“I was pretty much born with a lacrosse stick in my hands,” Aidan Baker says.

“It’s just a lifestyle. Lacrosse is so big not only in my community but in my family.

It’s always been the No. 1 sport of my community and my family.”

Baker and a group of other young Squamish Nation players are hoping to add their own names to that history when they take part in the first ever U19 World Lacrosse Challenge running Sept. 11-15 in Six Nations, Ont. The Squamish Nation North Shore Indians will compete against national teams from countries around the world like Czech Republic, Germany, Israel, Ireland, Sweden, and, of course, the lacrosse hotbed of the United States. Other teams taking part will represent First Nations groups from across Canada.

The tournament is intended to bring together the best young lacrosse players in the world in a format similar to the IIHF

Baker, the 19-year-old captain of the Squamish Nation squad, thinks his sport could use some of the adoration that is showered upon the country’s young hockey players. “(Lacrosse) is not recognized as much as it should be,” he says. “It’s the

national sport of Canada.

There’ve been times when I’ve asked people what the national sport of Canada is and they always say, ‘Oh, it’s hockey!’ Lacrosse is the thing I’m most passionate about.”

Squamish Nation head coach Sam Seward is hoping this tournament will make

more people passionate about the sport.

“I’m very excited for our young athletes,” he says. “It’s once-in-a-lifetime — you’re only young once. It’s an awesome opportunity.”

having suited up in a world championships back in 1980. His team, an AllNative All-Star squad, lost in the final held in front of a near packed house at Vancouver’s Pacific Coliseum.

“That was an awesome experience, I’ll always remember that,” Seward says. “It’s the same for the kids — they’ll make lifelong memories playing with friends, make new friends and we all get to play this game that we love, our passion.”

The team heading to Ontario in a couple of weeks was assembled about a month ago when general manager Stewart Jacobs parlayed his connections with colleagues from Six Nations into an invite to the tournament. A group of Squamish Nation coaches — most of them affiliated with the North Shore Indians, a club that still runs a successful program today — got together to select an all-star squad consisting of a core of players from

the Nation as well as some additions from around British Columbia.

“We picked out the best of the best within our community,” says Baker.

“Every kid on this team is so passionate about this — they just want to win.”

The large coaching staff — including assistants Kwakee Baker,Tewanee Baker, Matt Noble and Pete Skye — combine to bring more than a century of lacrosse experience to the team.

“I’m 59 now, I’ve been in lacrosse for 54 years,” says Seward. “We’ve all won championships….We’re pushing these kids hard, we’re practising hard.We run them for two hours Saturday and two hours Sunday. In the end they’re getting tired and we’re still pushing them.

How much do you want it, right? We want it.”

Nineteen of the 21 players on this team have direct family ties to someone who played on the North Shore Indians team that is in the Hall of Fame. Aidan Baker would love nothing more than to win a world

title of his own and add his name into the stories alongside those of his ancestors.

“That would mean the world,” he says, adding that he’s never won a major championship before.

“To be able to win such a championships would just be heartwarming.”

In the Squamish Nation lacrosse is known as the Game of the Creator. For Baker, it’s much more than a game.

“It’s a gift,” he says.

Seward feels the same way.

“It’s a part of us,” he says. “All of our families have grown up with lacrosse, especially our North Shore Indians….We’ve always played it, it’s a very important part of our lives.”

••• The Squamish Nation is raising funds to help pay for the team’s travel and expenses as well as to keep lacrosse programs running on the North Shore. For more information contact Squamish Nation Coun.
