Convicted child sex tourist Christopher Neil appeared in Richmond Provincial Court Monday morning but the public won’t know the conditions of his release until today (Wednesday.) Although not charged, the former Maple Ridge resident and teacher will remain in custody until he appears in court Oct. 3 at 9:30 a.m. when a judge was expected to decide whether or not Neil should be released, and if so, under what circumstances. Neil has already spent four years in a Thai prison for sexually assaulting a 13year-old boy and his nineyear-old brother, and for see Neil page 4 $

Clark aims to replace tunnel Brodie welcomes plan but wants more cash put into TransLink BY KELLY SINOSKI Vancouver Sun

Mayor Malcolm Brodie welcomes the premier’s plan to replace the aged and gridlocked George Massey tunnel, however, the job of getting people out of cars and onto transit should be the province’s first priority. “If the government wants to do something to address the issue now they would be announcing additional sustainable funding for TransLink to provide buses,” Brodie said. In response to Premier Christy Clark’s announcement Friday, Metro Vancouver mayors said the province has to work immediately on reducing the number of cars that continue to choke pressure points on the highway and on the tunnel’s on and off ramps. Both Brodie and Langley Mayor Peter Fassbender said the province should be looking at road pricing — charging drivers a fee for the distance travelled

— to generate money for transit and get people out of their cars. Brodie noted a new tunnel or bridge is going to cost at least as much as the new $3.3-billion Port Mann, and will likely be tolled, considering the province has done so with both the Port Mann and Golden Ears bridges. TransLink has had to postpone several transportation projects, arguing it doesn’t have the money. Clark said replacing the tunnel would help ease one of the worst traffic bottlenecks in the province, adding that the project, which would take at least 10 years to plan and design, would help accommodate another 300,000 people in the region by 2040. “Talk to anyone who drives through the George Massey Tunnel on their daily commute and they’ll tell you it’s a huge headache,” Clark said at the Union of B.C. Municipalities convention, adding a new crossing would also relieve an

“economic bottleneck” for Port Metro Vancouver. Clark said she plans to work with Richmond and Delta mayors on a replacement crossing, which could be either another tunnel or a bridge. It’s still way too early, she added, to say if it would be tolled. Delta Mayor Lois Jackson said she was delighted with the announcement Friday. “(The provincial government) certainly heard me and heard what the community has to say,” she said in a phone interview from London, England. Delta has long lobbied for improvements or a replacement for the 53-year-old tunnel, predicting the Deltaport expansion will result in another 1,700 daily truck trips through the tunnel within five years.

Joe’s story captures kids Heart & Soul event supports programs

BY MICHELLE HOPKINS

mhopkins@richmond-news.com

Hearing “Joe” speak about his 20-year struggle with HIV had a huge impact on local high school students. “You could hear a pin drop … there was no noise, and you could see the students were really listening,” said Stacey Forrester, an outreach worker at The Heart of Richmond AIDS Society. “They asked him so many good questions.” Last year, more than 1,500 Richmond high school students heard Joe’s moving story by taking part in the society’s course dubbed 101 HIV. The education program is provided free to Grade 10 students thanks to The Heart of Richmond AIDS Society. “From the first day I taught the course in April until the end of June, I was booked at one of the high schools,” said Forrester.

Six ICBC estimators axed, more may follow BY ALAN CAMPBELL

acampbell@richmond-news.com

Six ICBC workers have been sacked from the Richmond claims centre and more could be on their way out after an investigation into their conduct. The insurance corporation fired one of the estimators in March and another five last week at the Elbridge Way centre following a lengthy probe into claims that were being improperly processed. A Richmond auto body shop, Hugh Autobody on Capstan Way, is at the centre of the investigation and has lost its ICBC accreditation as a result. However, the News learned Tuesday that ICBC is still investigating and more employees may be sacked as a result. Basically, the fired workers violated ICBC policies by approving repair estimates from an auto body shop over the phone, rather than in person. ICBC policy requires a visual examination to ensure the approved auto body shop isn’t deliberately inflating the estimate. “The investigation continues and there could be one or two more (firings) to come,” said ICBC’s manager of media relations, Mark Jan Vrem. Apparently, an unusual amount of business was going to a very few number of businesses. A member of staff is understood to have brought the matter to bosses’ attention late last year. The RCMP was brought in at the very beginning, Jan Vrem said, but it’s “(the RCMP’s) view that this is very much an internal matter and they don’t see it as criminal.” Jan Vrem said ICBC is now taking a closer look at their centres across the province to make sure the problem “is not systemic.”

Continued from page 1 major commercial centre, and more drivers and ferry traffic divert to the tunnel to avoid paying tolls on the Golden Ears and new Port Mann bridges. About 82,000 drivers use the tunnel daily on their commute to and from downtown Vancouver. A final draft report on the economic impacts to Delta, conducted by Steer Davies Gleave for the corporation, suggests the tunnel is already operating at capacity during peak periods, and estimates the cost of congestion on the tunnel would rise to between $74 million and $173 million by 2041, from $27 million to $66 million in 2008. The report also notes the tunnel is one of the worst areas for accidents on Highway 99. With no hard shoulders for stalled or disabled vehicles to move to, collisions or incidents can have a significant effect on tailbacks and congestion. The draft report follows a 400-page Canadian Environmental Assessment Act screening report earlier this year for Port Metro Vancouver’s Deltaport Terminal, Road and Rail Improvement Project. That report said the port expansion project could result in an additional 1,300 truck

A Delta staff report said of those trips, about 35 per cent — or another 450 trucks — would use the tunnel, bringing to 1,700 the daily total of two-way truck trips using the crossing. Jackson wouldn’t say whether she would prefer a bridge or a tunnel as a replacement, but added: “I don’t happen to be an engineer but tunnels don’t seem to be in vogue right now,” she said. “We’ll have to see what the engineers say.” Metro Vancouver mayors have been in negotiations with the province on finding sustainable funding options, but were frustrated after the province rejected two of their proposals: using the carbon tax revenue for transit, and instituting a vehicle levy. Mayors can now use only gas taxes, fares and property taxes to raise money for transit. NDP MLA Bruce Ralston argued the Liberal announcement is so far in the future that it only amounts to a “declaration of intention.” ❚ For more stories, go to www.vancouversun. com.

News Community coaches might soon supervise school sports BY YVONNE ROBERTSON

yrobertson@richmond-news.com

Richmond school district is one step closer to having community coaches coach school sports without a teacher sponsor, according to school trustee Grace Tsang. The policy committee consulted the president of the Richmond Secondary School Athletic Association to draft a new policy and has sent the report to the Richmond Board of Education.

Currently, a teacher, principal, or district employee needs to sponsor a school sports team and be present during field trips. “Without anyone from these levels stepping up, nothing can be done,” said Tsang, head of the policy committee. “These sports teams, or activities will be cancelled.” Over the past few years, school districts across B.C. have noticed a decrease in the number of teachers who volunteer to coach extracur-

ricular activities. To accomodate, most districts changed their policy, but Richmond remains one of three that hasn’t. A 2008 revision stated volunteers or community coaches could only occasionally supervise games and practices without a sponsor. Although not a sole reason, last year’s job action, which recommended teachers not participate in extracurricular activities, was a factor for this policy reconsideration. “There were a lot of sports and

activities that had to be cancelled because of it,” said Tsang. “And some of these programs, the students relied on for their postsecondary scholarships.” But even without job action, schools across the city have been starting to feel the pressure from the decrease in teacher volunteers. At Hugh Boyd secondary, vice principal Michael Jaswal lists tennis, field hockey, and swimming as examples of sports that have high student demand, but lack sponsors.

“Particularly with swimming and tennis, a community coach would actually be more beneficial,” said Jaswal. “Because they are more technical sports, we’d really benefit from someone who has more expertise and experience.” Besides a willingness on the part of parents and community coaches to volunteer, teachers have also shown their support for a new policy, as they have other obligations, said Tsang.

Richmond Mounties ball hockey team suffered its second loss when Grade 7 students from Talmey elementary beat them up with a 4-3 win. Friday’s game was the second of many ball hockey games taking place between officers from the Richmond detachment and local elementary school students. In May, Richmond RCMP announced their new School Sports Program, an initiative that focuses on strengthening ties with youth in the community. The program provides local youth with the opportunity to play sports with officers they might not otherwise interact with. “It’s fun to be with the kids playing,” said Cpl. Kevin Krygier, program coordinator. “It’s good for them. They usually only see us come to the school when there’s a problem. Now they get to see us as human beings.” In June, the first ball hockey game took place at Grauer elementary, where the Mounties suffered an embarrassing 7-3 loss, which they hoped to recover from, but things just didn’t seem to work out against Talmey.

Richmond RCMP have formed a ball hockey team as part of their new School Sports program where they play against local Grade 7s. “We knew we were in trouble when the bell rang for lunch and all the students ran outside screaming,” said Cpl. Sherrdean Turley, media relations officer for Richmond RCMP. “They were so excited to be playing against us. It was great to see them that happy.” The students who weren’t playing lined the ball hockey court with banners and signs in hand.

All that could be heard was “Talmey, Talmey” over and over again as the students cheered in support. “This was a great opportunity for our students and the RCMP to maintain a positive relationship,” said Don Dixon, school principal. The next ball hockey game is scheduled to take place at James Whiteside elementary later this month.

Bidding was fast and furious as 34 Terracotta Warriors went up on the auction block last Thursday night, raising money to benefit children with disabilities all across the province. Nearly 300 guests showed up for The Great Terracotta Warrior Banquet and Auction held at Richmond’s Continental Seafood Restaurant. At the end of the gala soiree, more than $170,000 was raised, from both the sale of the warriors and the live auction items, for the BC Lions Society for Children with Disabilities Easter Seals programs and services — including Easter Seals House. “We exceeded our expectations,” said Stephen Miller, the society’s president and CEO. “The evening went extremely well and the energy in the room was excellent. “Even though this was a limited edition project, per capita, we raised more money than we did with our eagles.” The average price paid for each of the seven-foot tall fiberglass sculptures was $4,300, but there were a few that fetched more than $6,000. The most expensive were the Blue and White Porcelain Ware by artist Regina Liao, which went for $8,750; the Aging of Time by artist Dean Lauze sold for $8,250; Enlightened Warrior by artist Cathryn Jenkins sold for $6,750; and Past and Present by artist James Postill fetched $6,750.

In honour of World Food Day Oct. 14, residents are being asked to take a good look at what’s on their plates. Richmond Food Security Society is teaming up with the Richmond Public Library, the Richmond Museum and Cinevolution to serve up some perspective on the very stuff that sustains us. The Richmond Cultural Centre will be open from 12 to 4 p.m. with interactive exhibits like butter churning (bring your own baked bread), films, children’s activities and a pocket market. As well, social media will play a part in the celebration. A space will be provided where the public can download and use phone applications that help them take ethical issues into account when buying groceries. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations launched World Food Day internationally in 1979. Richmond Food Security Society aims to raise awareness about food-related issues on both a local and global scale. “During that Sunday afternoon, people of

all ages can learn about hunger, food production and distribution both locally and globally,” said coordinator Colin Dring. Hunger might not seem like an issue in an affluent community like Richmond, but in fact the food bank has seen a steady increase in users, said Dring. And the community meal service has been expanding. “Clearly, food access is an issue that is also tied to housing. Since land prices in the region are quite high, people frequently have less money to spend on food and start to make poor food choices. They are often part of an invisible but vulnerable group.” The society and its partners hope to not only address problems, but also solutions. This year’s World Food Day theme is Agricultural Co-operatives: key to feeding the world. “That community-based view of agriculture is considered to be the solution to global food issues such as the lack of access to land for food production and market pressures.” World Food Day not only offers a lot to think about, but also something to taste: Richmond chef Ian Lai will prepare a meal with local foods.

served at the table. One of the most important of these was the man who carved the meat. In Italian he was known as the “trinciante,” a word deriving from the same Latin verb, “truncare,” and thus related to trencher. The English called him the carver, a Middle English word rooted in the Old English “ceorfan,” to cut. To imagine him like the modern paterfamilias, carving roast turkey at Thanksgiving or Christmas, couldn’t be further off the mark. The “trinciante” was an accomplished artist whose handling of the knife had to be a spectacle. When he carved roast turkey, he speared the whole bird, held it high in the air, and with grace and dexterity sliced off parts, making them fall on to the platter in a neat arrangement. Perhaps we’ve lost the historic art of carving meat, but if the modern food industry made edible containers for take-outs, we could easily revive the medieval, environmentally-friendly custom of eating our trenchers, thus all becoming good trenchermen and trencherwomen. Sabine Eiche is a writer and art historian, author of Presenting the Turkey (http://members.shaw.ca/ seiche/).

E. coli scare raises flags

re cuts to the federal food inspection services impacting food safety in Canada? Was the recent recall of meat with E. coli due to changes in inspection processes and/or staffing? Who knows? What we do know is that the E. coli tainted Canadian meat products were discovered by U.S. inspectors, not Canadian inspectors. And the U.S. food safety inspection service tested the beef two weeks before Canadian agencies even acted. This should, we believe, raise several red flags. When the federal government decided to build a very lean budget, Stephen Harper also decided to leave out all those pesky details about exactly what was being cut and by how much. The budget, according to media reports, called for the elimination of 19,000 federal jobs over three years. Also, according to media reports, the cuts would affect everything from food inspections to transportation safety. But the federal government has not released details about those cuts. So, we, like many other folks in B.C., have no idea whether cuts may be directly impacting the safety of our food supply or our water supply. However, the union representing the largest number of federal employees does have an idea. The Public Service Alliance of Canada believes that Canada’s food inspection agency is being weakened through cuts and a move to have meat companies do more self-policing. And it is raising concerns about the trend. As it should. Certainly, PSAC has a vested interest, given that its members are losing jobs, but it doesn’t take a PhD in agriculture to come to the conclusion that fewer inspections and regulations with more food production could add up to more tainted food issues. So far, no one has died from this E. coli meat, but what about the next batch? Fewer inspections will surely mean a potential for more chances of contamination. Will it take something like a Walkerton tragedy to get the government to rethink its cuts?

CHOICE WORDS

Teachers critical to community The Editor, As we observe World Teachers Day on Oct. 5, the board joins with students, parents, and our community to acknowledge that dedicated and highly capable people, and on this occasion particularly teachers, are critical for providing quality education. Through their daily work of leading, coaching, mentoring, illuminating, enabling, encouraging and inspiring, our staff makes a tremendous contribution to sustainable development by building its human foundation — development of a child’s capacity and desire to learn. But the best celebration is a practical one, where 365 days a year we show our appreciation and understanding of the giving nature and complex role of teachers. The board recognizes how important teachers are and appreciates their hard work to inspire excellence in learning and to improve the life chances of our children. Teachers work in partnership with many administrators and support staff in the schools and with parents in the community. The board especially wants to thank all of our staff and acknowledge that it is through partnerships and relationships that we are able to achieve such exceptional results and provide the high quality of life and learning experience that our children deserve. Recognizing excellence in the classroom means recognizing those who inspire, challenge, and influence the future. Thank you for keeping public schools a great place to learn. Donna Sargent Chairperson, Board of Education

Dix tries new tactic with positive politics NDP leader Adrian Dix did something last week that is completely out of character for a B.C. political leader. He actually went out of his way to speak glowingly of his two rivals, Premier Christy Clark and B.C. Conservative leader John Cummins. In his speech to about 1,500 delegates to the Union of B.C. Municipalities annual convention, he heaped praise on their public service, and said they were not deserving of any personal attacks. This was not an isolated case of Dix playing nice in B.C.’s political sandbox. Since becoming leader, he has strived to create a more positive tone in what passes for political discourse in this province. The question is: can he keep this up, and will this kind of style continue if he becomes premier? Dix insists the answer to both questions is a definite “yes.” But for now, you have to give him credit for trying to wrest B.C. politics out of the aggressively partisan, attack-dog mentality that has dominated the political arena for decades. For a recent example, one needs to look no further than the recent mini-scandal that saw the premier’s chief of staff resign over some kind of incident involving a female political staffer at a Victoria bar. This is the kind of story that allows an Opposition party to further embarrass the government. The NDP’s response was

Keith Baldrey IN THE HOUSE

telling, because there simply was no response. As per Dix’s orders, no MLA or staff person made a single comment about the incident. When Kevin Falcon and George Abbott announced they were getting out of politics, Dix issued news releases thanking them for their public service. More notably, Dix lauded the appointment of former premier Gordon Campbell to the position of Canada’s high commissioner in London, England. His endorsement of Campbell’s position likely didn’t go over well with many of his party’s faithful, who had come to revile the former premier. But Dix didn’t care about that and said he thought the post was the perfect fit for Campbell and the country. In the legislature, Dix leads off every question period but he does so in a low-key, non-confrontational manner. He leaves the shouting and arm-waving to his caucus members. Dix’s motivation for all this feel-good, positive messaging appears linked to his desire to increase voter turnout and participation in the political process. The relentless negativity that characterizes politi-

cal debate is no doubt a turnoff for a lot of people, who view such discourse as mindless, empty rhetoric. And this new kind of approach may also reflect the reality that there are not many tremendous differences between Dix and his opponents, thus eliminating the need for personal attacks (both parties are hemmed in by deteriorating government revenues). By contrast, Premier Clark and her B.C. Liberal party continue to take the relentless, aggressive partisan approach and launch personal attacks on Dix at regular intervals. So far, that approach is not working but they show no signs of changing tactics. Last week, I noted the huge gender gap that has developed among B.C. voters, as women in large numbers have deserted Clark. I have to wonder whether the differing styles of the two leaders may explain the gap. If Dix can remain positive and avoid the partisan personal attacks that his chief opponent loves, I suspect that gender gap may become even more entrenched. And it may well turn out that of all the things Dix says he will do in government should he get the chance to lead it, establishing a positive, non-partisan approach to politics may prove to have the biggest and longest-lasting impact on our province. Keith Baldrey is chief political reporter for Global BC.

PIPELINE PROPOSAL

City needs update on VAFFC The Editor, Residents of Richmond and the city council are still waiting to hear what fate awaits us with respect to the Vancouver Airport Fuel Facility Corporation (VAFFC) proposal. The proposal would see an 80-million litre jet fuel tank farm in Richmond, and non-stop tanker traffic on the Fraser River, as the tankers deliver fuel to the tank farm. Jet fuel is highly toxic to marine life and highly explosive. The inherent dangers in the proposed scheme are obvious. A spill from one of the large tankers they plan to use would be devastating to the sensitive Fraser Estuary. We know that tankers have accidents. It is not possible to provide 100 per cent protection from spills — the only question is when will they occur. As well, there is a real danger from explosion at the tank farm as Richmond sits on an earthquake zone. The proposed site of this tank farm is just off Silver City. The city council has been unanimous in its condemnation of this proposal, and thousands of citizens in the Lower Mainland have protested and signed petitions, but still we are left in the dark. What is the status of this proposal? Why are the citizens and city council ignored? The position of VAPOR, the Richmond citizen’s group that has organized opposition to this proposal, is that if Vancouver airport does indeed need more fuel, we

would back one of the original options from VAFFC — to move the jet fuel entirely by pipeline, thus eliminating the dangers inherent in tanker traffic and a tank farm. As has been pointed out in previous letters to the editor, this type of pipeline would steer toxic chemical away from our waterways. (Not to be confused with Enbridge, which would result in an increase in tanker traffic on the coast.) Some politicians have given us strong support: NDP MP Finn Donnely presented our 6000+ petition in the House of Commons in Ottawa earlier this year, and independent MLA Vicki Huntington presented it in Victoria. We have also received written support from MLA Linda Reid and MP KerryLynne Findlay. The recent gutting of federal environmental protection legislation has done little to help our case. We have tried to engage our local Conservative MP Alice Wong and also Liberal MLA John Yap, but they have both been strangely silent on the issue and have refused to take a stand. I find this unacceptable when the vast majority of Richmond residents and the entire city council are dead set against it. Who do they represent? This comedy has been going on for close to two years. We would like to see a new proposal that we can get behind — one that does not pose large scale risks to the environment. Barbara Huisman Member, Board of Directors, VAPOR

The News... keeping Richmond families informed.

The Editor, Re: “Terra Nova created by many,” Letters, Sept. 19. I was surprised to read Marion Smith’s letter in your Sept. 19 edition of the Richmond News, especially after receiving a telephone call from her associate, to whom I acknowledged the previous work of the Save Richmond Farmland Society (SRFS). I offered to meet or speak further with her or any of her SRFS colleagues. The SRFS’s surprise at learning of my involvement in the Terra Nova Park may be due to the fact that I did not involve the media in the process. Years of meetings and correspondence with the parties involved got the job done. The “profile” in the Richmond News is the first public mention I’ve made of the issue. The city removed the agricultural zoning (it was never ALR) and placed the lands in the category “under study.” This was not a zoning, but rather a state of limbo, under which the land owners had been held to ransom for eight years by the time I became involved. Neither the owners, nor a prospective buyer, knew what could be done with the land. The intended purpose for this category

was for the city to commission a study, which, in those eight years, had not been done. As long as the owners remained quiet and no one lobbied on their behalf, the status quo remained. With contracts in hand and price established between owners and a developer, I worked to encourage the city to move on the issue. Eventually, a study was commissioned, however, upon receipt of the first draft, the city cancelled the commission. In exasperation, I suggested we had three options: involve the provincial ombudsman; the courts; or place the question before the public, as either a referendum or a plebiscite on the upcoming election ballot. As history evidences, the latter was chosen, with a positive result, allowing the negotiation of individual contracts for the owners. During this period, there were no meetings, conversations, correspondence, or negotiations involving anyone from SRFS. Ms. Smith, I will be happy to receive your call, to continue dialogue in a less public way. Yvonne Harwood Richmond

Youth plus high-powered cars equals speed The Editor, Re: “Young drivers suspected of street racing,” News, Sept. 26. Is anybody surprised these young, wealthy individuals want to race their high-powered cars? Why on Earth would you allow a person with limited driving experience to get behind the wheel of such a car in the first place is beyond me. One just has to drive down Steveston

Highway on any given day, at any given hour and count the amount of cars (especially those with N signs) that cruise at well beyond the posted speed limit. There needs to be an all out blitz by the police in B.C. to stem the rampant speeding and dangerous driving that seems to be more of the norm than one of breaking the laws that govern our roads and highways.

Connaught’s success attracts plenty of interest

Richmond skating club has over 600 kids participating in various programs at competitive and recreation levels BY MARK BOOTH

mbooth@richmond-news.com

The medals and accomplishments are piling up but it’s at the grassroots level where the progress being made by the Connaught Skating Club can really be measured. The Richmond-based organization opened its competitive season last weekend in Regina at SaskSkate where six Connaught skaters reached the podium including gold medal performances by Emma Carr (Novice Ladies), Kurtis Schreiber (Novice Men) and Larkyn Austman (Junior Ladies). Danielle Gordon (PreNovice Ladies) and Shawn Cuevras (Junior Men) took home silver. Connaught’s competitive program is now preparing for its next event — Autumn Leaves in Kamloops — which will serve as the final tune-up for next month’s B.C./Yukon Sectionals in Parksville. What has the club even more excited these days is the amount of skaters par-

ticipating in its introductory programs. Over 600 children are registered for the fall and winter sessions and many are coming from outside of Richmond to be part of the Connaught experience. “We seem to have a lot of people now that are coming from all over the Lower Mainland and are driving here,” said Keegan Murphy, the club’s director of programs. “That type of commitment to the sport and to their children is absolutely remarkable. “That’s what it takes to be the best at anything in life. The overall development of our skaters has been really solid and consistent.” Murphy doesn’t need to promote his programs or convince parents its worth making the trek to Richmond a couple of times of week. His skaters are doing that for him. When he first landed the job with Connaught three years ago, some of his skaters from the Sunset Skating Club in East Vancouver followed him.

MARK BOOTH/RICHMOND NEWS

Connaught Skating Club coaches talk to their competitive skaters during a training session at Minoru Arenas. Among them was Mitchell Gordon. Today, he is the Canadian men’s junior champion and has moved up to the senior ranks at the age of 16, representing Canada in international competitions. Gordon is among a steadily growing group of 20 skaters currently in

Connaught’s elite competitive program. Murphy enjoys watching these athletes flourish and achieve new goals, but has an equal passion for working with kids coming through the CanSkate programs. “As much as we love to coach triple jumps and triple axles, we love to

coach the seven-year-olds and maybe find the next Mitchell Gordon,” said Murphy who continues to work alongside his mother Eileen who once coached him during his competitive career. “The base of the club is huge right now and it gives us an excellent foundation

for everything. They have role models right here in the club and that just sets the tone for what type of athletes they want to be. “The club is turning in to what we wanted it to turn into. It takes a lot of team work and effort from everyone to do it, board members included.”

Gordon headed to Croatia this week for ISU Grand Prix event BY MARK BOOTH

mbooth@richmond-news.com

Mitchell Gordon

Mitchell Gordon is seeing the world and making steady progress in the senior men’s ranks as well. It was 10 months ago when the Connaught Skating Club member turned heads by capturing the junior men’s title at the Canadian championships in Moncton. The result was well ahead of schedule and meant the 16-year-old had reached the pinnacle level of figure skating. Months of hard work followed as Gordon added to his arsenal of jumps. His first significant test came three weeks ago at an ISU Junior Grand Prix

event in Austria. Gordon finished eighth overall, including a sixth place result for his long program skate. It was a performance that pleased Skate Canada enough to send him to another international competition this week in Croatia. “This competition in Croatia was based on his result in Austria which he achieved,” said Keegan Murphy, who continues to work with Gordon, along with Eileen Murphy. “These competitions are high pressure. He is representing his country and the field of skaters are very tough. These are guys who are going to be on the world podium five or six years from now. He is doing a great job. “Since his win at nationals, Mitchell’s

progression has been consistent but rate has been mind blowing.” The meet in Croatia will be another stepping stone leading up to Gordon competing at the Canadian Championships early next year where he will be up against the nation’s best skaters, including current world champion Patrick Chan. “We are peaking towards January for the nationals,” continued Murphy. If there are some bumps or hiccups at this time of year it’s totally normal. We don’t want him to be 110 percent right now. “We think a top 10 finish is totally achievable. Through that would be the possibility of competing in Junior Worlds.”

Sockeyes renew rivalry with Ice Hawks on Thursday The more things change the more they seem to stay the same in the Pacific International Junior Hockey League. Three weeks into the regular season and the Richmond Sockeyes and Delta Ice Hawks are well on their way to establishing themselves as the teams to beat despite both clubs having a number of new faces in their respective line-ups. The league’s two best teams will meet on Thursday night (7:30 p.m.) at Minoru Arena with first place on the line in the Tom Shaw Conference. The Sockeyes (5-01) and the Ice Hawks (5-1-0) both produced a pair of wins last week, including dominatPayton Lee ing victories over the North Delta Devils. Richmond used a four goal explosion early in the second period en route to an 8-1 home ice win over the Flyers. The hosts lead 3-0 after 20 minutes on goals by Daniel Lange, Daniel Tait and Dean Allison. They then broke the game wide open with tallies from Sam Chichak, Liam Lawson, Lange and Tait by the 4:22 mark of the middle stanza. Chichak’s second of the night rounded out the Sockeyes scoring. Tait (22) and Allison (1-3) each finished with four points. Two nights later in Port Moody, rookie goaltender Payton Lee recorded his first ever PIJHL shutout as Richmond blanked the Panthers 6-0.

Lee, a 16-year-old top prospect with the Western Hockey League’s Vancouver Giants, turned aside 27 shots for the win. Meanwhile, the Sockeyes were peppering Panthers’ goalie Angus Redmond with 56 shots. Tait continued his impressive scoring stretch with two more goals and now sits in second place in league scoring with 13

points in five games. Only Ice Hawk veteran Anthony Brito is better as the 20year-old notched a hat trick in a 12-2 thumping of North Delta on Saturday and now has 13 goals and 20 points. Icing... It was a busy week for Sockeyes GM Richard Petrowsky who tweaked his roster with a number of player moves. He

announced sophomore forward Justin Rai has signed with Prince George of the B.C. Hockey League, while 20-year-old forward Justin Lachance has decided to retire. The club also returned Eric Margo to the Vancouver Northwest Giants of the B.C. Major Midget Hockey League. The team acquired Stephen Campbell from the North Delta Devils for

With children away at college, they are ready to begin a new chapter in their lives. For Kate, this means getting her masters degree, working with inner-city youth, and most of all, having Greg all to herself. Her plans are derailed when Greg brings home Sylvia, a stray dog he ﬁnds in the park. Kate is not in the least bit interested in caring for a dog, but Greg is completely infatuated. He is at something of a crossroads himself—he hates his job, in fact, he rails against the whole ‘system’. Lacking purpose and passion, Mike Stack as Greg & Lisa Bunting as Kate. Photo: Tim Matheson

Man’s midlife crisis is well-travelled terrain. What makes Sylvia unique and truly delightful is that the title character is played by a beautiful, young woman (Sarah Jessica Parker originated the role almost twenty years ago). So Sylvia, literally as well as ﬁguratively, becomes the other woman in Greg and Kate’s relationship. Come. Sit. Enjoy… and see how it all works out.

Clarke selected for Spain camp

Richmond’s Caleb Clarke has been named to the Canadian Under 20 men’s soccer team that will be participating in the fourteam Marbella Cup during a 10-day camp in Spain, starting on Sunday. Canada will face the United States on Oct. 10, Azerbaijan on Oct. 12 and conclude the tournament three days later against Scotland. The Canadian camp will be based at the Marbella Football Center in Marbella, Spain. Clarke, who is under contract with the Vancouver Whitecaps, is one of 20 players selected by Nick Dasovic. Two other Whitecaps — Bryce Alderson and Ben Fisk — were also chosen. Clarke and Alderson were part of last month’s eight-day camp in Florida, as the Red and White played a pair of friendly matches against Trinidad and Tobago. Clarke scored three of Canada’s four goals over the two matches. Canadian coach Nick Dasovic is using the camps to finalize his roster of 1993-born players for the 2013 CONCACAF Men’s Under-20 Championship, slated for Feb. 18 to March 3 in Mexico. Four teams from the 12-team tournament will qualify for the FIFA U-20 World Cup Turkey 2013. “I thought I did well last camp and I just have to continue that, get better, score goals and help the team to win,” said Clarke. “If I play well and stay focused I will be on the team.” The Canadian squad features players from all four professional teams in

Canada plus clubs from five European nations. In fact, eight of the 20 players play for either Vancouver Whitecaps FC (Residency), FC Edmonton (Reserves), Toronto FC Academy or Montreal Impact in Canada. Other players have been called in from clubs in England, Germany, Hungary, Portugal and Spain.

Caleb Clarke

Corner kicks... Clarke’s sister has helped Canada reach the quarterfinals at the FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup in Azerbaijan. The Canadians clinched a final eight berth by going 2-1-0 in group play. Summer Clarke notched the game’s only goal in a 1-0 win over Columbia on Sept. 25. She broke the scoreless deadlock in the 51st minute when she converted a centering pass from Nichelle Prince. Fullback Lindsay Agnew had played a straight ball down the right line that Prince chased and won, with the Colombians perhaps hoping that the ball would have rolled out. Prince continued her run deep towards the Colombian line before centering a pass for Clarke in the middle. Clarke had done well on her own run into the box, using her speed to get in front of Colombian defender Anyella Martinez who could only drag down Clarke, but not prevent the goal. Canada then defeated Azerbaijan last Saturday and will face North Korea on Thursday.
