Games’ spirit outplays politics EVEEDMONDS Editor

EDITOR@RICHMOND-NEWS.COM

s you read this, our very own Olympic athlete Evan Dunfee will be pounding the pavement through the streets of Rio. It’s a big day for him (Friday) as he competes in the 20 km men’s race-walking event at 10:30 a.m. our time; his second event is Aug. 19.

Dunfee has been writing a column, Road to Rio, in the Richmond News leading up to the Olympics. In one, he detailed his training schedule; in another, he profiled each member of his “team” — from podiatrist to psychologist. In yet another, he basically reiterated the monologue that happened in his head throughout a particularly intense race — a fascinating look at mental strategies.

But regardless of what he wrote, the underlying story was always one of passion and determination. It’s truly remarkable what this young man, and probably every Olympic athlete, has put himself through to get to the Games — never mind onto the podium.

And so goes the Olympic legacy. Every Games is filled with stories of grit, grind and inspiration, and not just in competition. A couple of days back, a photo of two gymnasts went viral. It had nothing to do with athletic feats, rather it showed two women, one from North Korea the other from South Korea posing for a selfie. Right now, the two countries are a hair’s trigger away from military action against each other. It’s beautiful to see the Olympic spirit outshine political hostilities.

Now, if we could only see that same spirit outshine the politics of the Olympics themselves, we would really have something to celebrate. As moved as I am by all that’s great about the Games, I can’t entirely ignore, for example, those huge, colourful screens lining roadways leading to many of the venues after I learned they were placed there to hide the desperate poverty that lay behind them.

An obscene amount of money was spent building venues in a country where 26 per cent of the population lives below the poverty line. So why Rio? ...and that’s where allegations of rampant International Olympic Committee (IOC) corruption come in.

A part of me hoped the Rio Olympics would be a colossal failure. That way, we could start again, rebuild from the ground up on the very principles that the vast majority of its athletes embody. That said, it would be heart-breaking for those same athletes to be denied their time to shine, and a loss for us all to share in the excitement, celebration of excellence and cultural connection that the Olympics can inspire.

While I fear that nothing will change if this is yet another “successful” Games (at least in terms of viewership and sponsors making bags of money), I will still be watching Dunfee, and many other athletes, in the coming days. Call it rationalization, but here’s to hoping that the beauty that is the Olympic spirit will eventually imbue the politics that surround it.

Dear Editor, Richmond Chinese Community Society (RCCS) has been doing an excellent job in serving a large segment of the community with limited resources.

In addition to serving the people of Richmond, RCCS has been doing something special for the seniors.

Every year, RCCS, with assistance from a number of sponsors and donors, holds a lunch party for seniors.

This year was the 14th Annual Lunch for Seniors. The Continental Seafood Restaurant at Cambie and No. 5 Road was an ideal setting for this annual event held last Saturday.

Like every other year, the large dining hall on this occasion was overflowing with people of diverse backgrounds.

In addition to other invitees, including our elected officials, RCCS invites reps from various organizations including our community centres.

As president of East Richmond Community Association (Cambie Community Centre), it has been a privilege for me to attend this lunch party for the past several years.

Every year, the food, entertainment, service and hospitality is wonderful.

In addition to delicious food and great entertainment, every attendee also gets a gift. Some of the lucky ones also win some prizes. It is a great community event.

I would like to express my sincere thanks and appreciation to RCCS Board of Directors, staff, sponsors, volunteers and entertainers for this wonderful annual event.

Special events like this go a long way in promoting intercultural harmony in our community.

Balwant Sanghera Richmond

Get tough on drivers Dear Editor, With the booming population in Richmond during the last few years, we all notice the crowded streets, especially during rush hours.

I believe it is time for tougher traffic rules, because we all notice lots of violations every day, everywhere on Richmond’s streets.

For example, I have noticed that two or three vehicles will turn left on a yellow light, instead of one.

I also believe we need random checkpoints to enforce new, tougher rules for driver licences.

LETTERSto the Editor

If you didn’t walk, don’t talk Dear Editor, Re: “Enough already of the Onni versus city council fight,” Letters, Aug. 10.

If you didn’t walk the walk, don’t talk about the boardwalk. I am getting sick and tired of these people complaining about the City of Richmond vs. Onni dispute.

Where were they during the B.C. Packers rezoning, when we were fighting for more heritage, a better commercial fishing economy, including a world class fish market, for a better community in general and for the environment?

I am a 59-year citizen of Richmond, (I’ve lived here all my life), and proud of it. I am also a proud defender of the commercial fishing industry, the environment and the community’s heritage.

I’m embarrassed by the boardwalk, as well. An ersatz boardwalk, where cracks from the dyke below still appear far more than not.

The aluminium outline of one small part of the once immense Imperial Cannery, (the largest cannery in the British Empire), disgusts me.

If we had had more support from the public at large, we could have saved the entire original building, and then some.

I’m saddened by the large amount of density that was amassed by B.C. Packers and that the only heritage offered to the city and community was a net loft building, now in a questionable state, regarding restoration.

I was, and still am, disgusted that several First-Nations burials were bulldozed in the name of profit and that there is still no mention of the fact that there were two First-Nations villages along the waterfront, one in the Imperial Phoenix area and the other at Garry Point.

Again, where were these now complainers when we tried to save all of it? Were they beguiled by the B.C. Packers support group and the company’s high-powered public relations team, bent on parading smoke and mirrors throughout the community to get what they want?

Well, they got it, and the community was left with nothing but a few scattered artifacts located on this still crumbling edifice of a boardwalk.

And what amazes me is that the City of Richmond gave them a heritage award for it. For what? I ask. Again, there’s very little heritage to speak of.

The latest letter writer, says, “I have reviewed and considered the numerous to and fro arguments published

in the News. I appreciate the issues.”

Well, that’s all very well and fine, but I think he should also bone up on the history of the property, to show what was there and what we could have had.

We wouldn’t have the empty retail space that we have there now because people wanting to establish businesses in the community would have lined up to get a place in the heritage Imperial area. Granville Island and Gastown are classic examples of what we could

have had. We even tried to get the community’s historic streetcar up and running to all the heritage sites, but thanks to that same negative portion of the community, it now sits static and soundless as a stuffed grizzly. Well at least it’s preserved, and I still believe it will run again.

The Trans-Canada Trail was looking at coming into Steveston, but with the company’s scorched-earth policy regarding heritage on the property and the obliteration of all but one of the heritage buildings, the TCT went

elsewhere.

Why the spaces sit empty is that the price per square foot lease, is very much prohibitive to most businesses that would fit in the area.

And high-end businesses we don’t need here, but rather businesses that the community can use. No more souvenir shops or restaurants and no chain stores either.

This community built itself on local businesses.

operations.

“The program is a partnership with a third party that keeps out-of-service rail ties from being landfilled,” said Kate Fenske, CN’s media relations spokesperson for Western Canada.

“The ties are repurposed in an environmentally-friendly manner to create an alternative fuel source for cement production.

“CN manages the facility in compliance with applicable laws and regulations and there has been no expansion of the operation.”

City of Richmond spokesperson Ted Townsend said a team of city staff had been working on an ongoing basis with CN Rail and “satisfactorily addressed” the aforementioned environmental concerns.

Metro Vancouver said it received seven complaints in 2014, when the facility first opened, and, on July 28, 2014, CN was informed that emissions from its operation were “unacceptable” and a request was

made it take “immediate steps to control emissions.”

In August of the same year, CN presented an action plan with a number of measures, including installation of wind breaks, use of water cannons, water trucks and street sweepers, replacing grinding equipment with equipment that generates less dust and suspending operations when off-site dust migration is observed.

According to Metro Vancouver, CN fulfilled the commitments stated in the plan and in 2015, no complaints were received.

Metro Vancouver said it is now in the process of looking into the most recent complaint.

Creosotes are carbonaceous chemicals, formed by the distillation of various tars.

They were used in the past to treat material such as wood and rail ties. However, it is rarely used today and is not on Metro Vancouver’s list of substances banned from landfills.

Strike looming for airport catering workers

M

ore than 400 catering workers based at Vancouver International Airport are preparing to strike over what their union calls a lack of honesty from their employer.

The members of UNITE Here 40 local — who work for global in-flight caterer Gate Gourmet — claim they were promised they would be rewarded for agreeing to a wage freeze three years ago, when the airline industry was in an apparent slump.

However, despite the Swissbased corporate giant, whose customers include Air Canada, British Airways, Air China, United and American airlines, picking up several major contracts in recent years, the union claims all that’s being offered is a one per cent raise.

Last week, the workers, according to the union, voted overwhelmingly to authorize job actions, up to and including a strike, if no

progress is made at the table.

And with both sides remaining far apart, despite mediation taking place this week, strike action is looming.

“We’ve been bargaining with them for a couple of months, but we’re still very far apart,” said Michelle Travis, spokesperson for UNITE Here Local 40.

“The key issues are that the employees agreed three years ago to a wage freeze when the industry

wasn’t doing so well. But since then, the industry has picked back up and the company has several new contracts. Our members can see how well the company is doing.

“There’s also an overtime ban, leading to understaffing and more pressure on the workforce.”

The 400 or so workers, said Travis, are mostly production staff and drivers, the majority of whom are immigrants from China and other parts of the globe.

On Thursday, some of the workers protested outside the BC Labour Relations Board building in Downtown Vancouver.

In a press release, the union claims that Gate Gourmet has “failed to recognize the economic sacrifices made by their employees and their families.”

A Gate Gourmet spokesperson told the News that details of the negotiations were confidential.

City passes on mega problem Mayor Brodie wants foreigner tax on farms Graeme Wood

Staff Reporter gwood@richmond-news.com

R

ichmond Mayor Malcolm Brodie is calling on the provincial government to apply a 15 per cent tax on farmland purchases by foreigners, after previously being opposed to such a levy, citing a personal philosophy to see a free market for real estate.

Brodie explained, this week, that the new provincial tax applied to residential properties places an extra incentive for foreigners to buy farmland and build large homes, which, coincidently, is another matter he’s asking the province to weigh in on.

“If you have a 15 per cent tax, have it apply to all the land,” said Brodie.

At issue is farmland that has been heavily speculated upon by investors, including foreign interests. Dr. Kent Mullinix, director of the Kwantlen Polytechnic University Institute for Sustainable Food Systems, has called for an outright ban of foreign ownership of farmland, as prices for an acre of farmland reach as high as approximately $500,000 (when $80,000 per acre is sustainable, according to studies).

Meanwhile, Brodie and all of Richmond city council have decided to send a letter to the Agricultural Land Commission and the Ministry of Agriculture, requesting they “introduce provincial regulations to control the maximum house size and house location on properties within the Agricultural Land Reserve.”

When asked why council doesn’t implement zoning regulations itself, as the City of Coquitlam recently did (limiting such homes to 5,300 square feet), Brodie said it attempted to do so three years ago but was met with opposition at a public hearing.

Coun. Harold Steves said prominent realtors who sold farm properties in east Richmond rallied support against the resolution. Steves said he was called racist in the process (as many large homes on farm properties are typically developed by Southeast Asians). Neither Steves nor Brodie said they’re presently willing to address the issue at city hall.

Meanwhile, the City of Richmond’s deputy CAO, Joe Erceg, told council’s planning committee last month that the city had recently denied an application to build a 41,000 square-foot house within the Agricultural Land Reserve, since it did not conform to zoning regulations. Erceg said the home had been designed in a manner that didn’t fit with normal living arrangements, hinting that it could have been used as a de facto hotel.

Erceg told council that the average singlefamily home on agricultural land is now 12,000 square-feet of livable space. That’s up from a few years ago when the average size was 7,000 square-feet, said Erceg.

Notably, property owners see significant property tax breaks if they state their property is farmed.

Metro Vancouver tried a regional limit on such homes in 2012, however the motion was dismissed by most politicians.

‘Til death do you part? Well, not always

The Art and Advantages of Cosmetic Precision Dentures:

In late-June, reasons for judgment were released in the case Kumagai v. Campbell Estate.

In this important case, the B.C. Supreme Court faced a situation where a Court had ordered, in August 2013, that a separated spouse pay spousal support. Not long after, the spouse died.

Was his Estate responsible for continuing the payments? Well, yes.

The Family Law Act allows for the Court to do so, and it was important that at the time of death, an Order for payment had been pronounced. (The key section of the Act is S. 171.)

If possible, a separation agreement that addresses the possibility of a spouse’s death should be concluded quickly. Alternatively, legal action should be launched very soon after separation, if that is possible. But if a couple separates, support (and making new Wills) should be on the minds of the spouses, and should be acted on.

The Pacific Salmon Foundation said, via an online statement, that it “welcomes the update provided by Fisheries and Oceans Canada and is very encouraged to hear directly from the minister that full implementation of the Cohen Commission recommendations is a top priority for this new government.”

he Department of Fisheries and Oceans Canada announced Tuesday it is taking “further action” on the 75 recommendations of the 2012 Cohen Commission, which sought to address declining Fraser River sockeye salmon runs.

Twenty-nine new employees will be hired for the Pacific Region to help implement many of the recommendations, according to Minister of Fisheries, Oceans and the Canadian Coast Guard Hon. Dominic LeBlanc said However, there was no commitment that all of the recommendations will be fully implemented yet.

“For some recommendations, DFO supports implementation but additional funding or further work (e.g. consultations) would be required to implement,” noted an online update on the status of the Cohen Commission.

This week, critics have taken aim at DFO’s continued mandate of “economically prosperous maritime sectors and fisheries,” and “sustainable aquatic ecosystems,” including fish farms.

Commission Recommendation 3 calls for the government to “remove from the (DFO) mandate “the promotion of salmon farming as an industry and farmed salmon as a product.”

UPDATE - 2016 SUMMER RUNWAY OPERATIONS

n Grim estimates from Commission

Steveston’s gillnetters have been marooned at their docks this season and it’s expected to stay that way, after the Pacific Salmon Commission (PSC) released detailed estimates of this year’s sockeye salmon run, which could mark an all-time low.

“The migration of sockeye through both marine and Fraser River assessment areas has been tracking substantially lower than expected for the time of year . . . Sockeye catches in both areas have been at levels less than observed on past cycle years at this time of year,” stated PSC, last Friday.

This week PSC updated its projections, which are worse than last week’s.

The adopted in-season total sockeye run now stands at 968,000 fish, down from the previous estimate of 1.3 million fish. PSC initially expected 2.3 million fish. So far, only 566,900 have returned. First Nations have caught 66,400, with commercial fishers tied at the docks. In 2012, the Fraser saw 2.3 million sockeye return to the river (fish that parented this year’s run).

Sockeye runs occur every four years. The river is now left with just one significant run., In 2014 about 20 million returned from the ocean. Their offspring are expected in 2018.

Bog meets farm in unique design City aims to nurture best of both ecosystems GRAEMEWOOD Staff Reporter

S

phagnum moss. It may not sound sexy. Chances are, you’ve never heard of it. But the City of Richmond is undergoing a multi-million dollar park design for the Garden City Lands that, in part, is aimed at preserving this bogbuilding plant by way of ecosystem engineering.

At the heart of what is likely a park design that’s never been seen before in the world, planners, engineers and local environmentalists will attempt to promote I don’t think anybody had both conservation of done anything quite like Richmond’s unique peat bog ecosystem, this before. As far as we as well as agricultural know, no one has ever done production and leisure recreational activities it right side by side in this in the 52-hectare (136 acre) lot. context.

“I don’t think – Laurel Morgan anybody has done anything quite like this before. As far as we know, no one has ever done it right side by side in this context,” said Laurel Morgan, environmental engineer for Kerr Wood Leidal Associates Ltd., a company that specializes in storm water management.

Morgan’s recent report to the city outlines what will be needed in order to allow for farming next to a peat bog — a tricky task. The report — titled Garden City Lands Water and Ecological Resource Management Strategy — outlines how the city’s parks planners can devise a way to quench the thirst of the easterly peat bog after restoring the lands with native species and stomping out invasive ones. Meanwhile, they must also ensure the restored farmland, to the west,

gets enough water and nutrients. Complicating matters is the fact that each side requires a different type of water.

Richmond’s manager of parks planning, Jamie Esko, explained that the vision set forth in the Garden City Lands legacy plan reflects the community’s desire to see some farming activity, as well as ecosystem restoration and preservation.

“We’re trying to work with both bog aspects and farm restoration,” said Esko. “To some degree, they’re opposites. On the bog side, the lands need to stay wet, while on the farm side it needs to be drained and the soils need to be amended.”

The initiative marks the beginning of what could ultimately be an estimated n An artist’s rendering of the Garden City Lands of the future shows how the bog will confront busy $35 million endeavour over Richmond roads; native plants and trees alongside a perimeter trail will separate the two.

It wasn’t always going to be this way, however. The lands The Garden City Lands was formerly a transmitter site for were once centre-stage for one of the most high-profile the Canadian Coast Guard. debates among politicians and Richmondites.

It was deemed surplus land by the federal government, “We’ve come a long way.

Wright’s group fought to keep the lands in the AgriculCoun. Harold Steves was, initially, the only councillor in favour of keeping the lands in the ALR. Following public input and a reluctance on the part of the Agricultural Land Commission to allow development, the tide turned and, in 2010, the city purchased the lands for $60 million, half of which went to the Musqueam.

The band has a dormant lawsuit against the city, which stems from concerns the city was to seek redevelopment after the purchase.

It’s Steves’ understanding that the lawsuit will only see the light of day if the land were to be developed into anything unrelated to the ALR. Wright said he was pleased to see Morgan’s “commendable” study, but the society will continue to press the city to keep the lands as a “celebration” of the ALR. “When (politicians) saw they couldn’t get out of the ALR, there was still a lot of residual thinking – such as, ‘How can we get around the ALR?’” said Wright.

“What we should have is one of the world’s great urban parks. An ALR-centred urban park. You need to celebrate the ALR.” Esko’s team is now aiming to do just that and no one from council is questioning the city’s new direction.

The park will never stop morphing, but Esko estimates it will be about 10 years until the potential of the lands is mostly realized, with the creation of a “community hub” for a farmers’ market and community gatherings, as well as a small forest of native species, a wetlands, community gardens and farm plots for students studying sustainable urban agriculture at KPU.

Water barrier key to bog survival From page 14 All of this will be done in the context of the ALR. “We’ll be working with the Agricultural Land Commission. Their policies are the rules we play by,” said Esko.

Morgan’s report is the first phase of park development — the roadmap, if you will. It largely outlines how water must be managed — namely with concerns about the water table, chemistry and plant management.

A key element will be a man-made water barrier between the bog on the eastern half and farms and fields to the west. Bisecting the lands diagonally will be the barrier, below a trail/farm road. Runoff water from the farms is rich in minerals and organic nutrients whereas native sphagnum mosses thrive only in clean rainwater with low acidity. As such, separation is required.

The barriers (also placed alongside the perimeter trail to prevent storm water runoff from roads) will also be key in directing rainwater to various collection ponds, and in particular a wetlands in the southerly portion of the park. This water could theoretically be used to feed the bog in dry summer months.

Additional measures taken to keep the bog’s water clean is a vegetative buffer between the roads and the bog.

Morgan said climate change will be a factor.

The bog will see more precipitation overall, with wetter winters, however drier summers will likely pose a problem.

“The groundwater table has to be within 0.4 metres below the surface of the peat bog in the growing season,” said Morgan.

Over the decades, the city could take water from the Department of National Defence (DND) lands to the east, but as a result of

development on all three other sides, the bog is effectively hemmed in and dependent on direct rainwater.

“It’s going to be a long process of continuous monitoring and adjusting,” said Esko.

n Soil will be trucked in

Meanwhile, the farmland to the east will need to have mineral-rich soil delivered to it, initially by truck, said Morgan. This may mean removing peat moss, to allow for vegetable production. As it stands, the lands can only support native berry production but not on a production level.

Esko noted the lands are too far away to draw water from the Fraser River, therefore, as suggested by Morgan, municipal water will be relied upon. As such, the lands may be prime to explore drought-resistant farming techniques, noted Esko. An agreement with KPU to farm 20 of 40 acres of planned farmland is pending a tenancy agreement, she added.

Managing invasive species will be important, noted Morgan. European birch, highbush blueberry, Himalayan blackberry, Scotch heather and various grasses are some of the plants that have been identified as invasive. To date, they’ve been mowed annually. Morgan suggests the city assess how the water barriers perform after three years before deciding whether or not to completely remove the species mechanically and manually or allowing the lands to grow as is. If the latter option is chosen, the lands could resemble a young Richmond Nature Park in 20 years.

In the meantime, invasive species that are nearby to patches of sphagnum moss should be “aggressively removed,” noted Morgan in her report.

Over time, the city will construct paths

where people can walk into the bog, from the perimeter trails.

Esko said the city is drawing on experiences from the University of B.C.’s Centre for Sustainable Food Systems, the Burns Bog Conservation Society, as well as programs run out of Terra Nova via the Sharing Farm Society and the Richmond Food Security Society. When precisely a community hub — consisting of a permeable parking lot with fruit trees, a barn, a community kitchen and fields for leisure activities — will be built will largely depend on the desires of the community to run programs out of the site.

n Residents need to do their part

Sharon MacGougan, president of the Garden City Conservation Society, imagines

citizens will continue to play an important role in developing the park.

Impressed with the “dedication and vision” of the parks department, MacGougan said the park will serve an important link to Richmond’s history, as it straddles the growing urban jungle.

“I feel strongly in honouring the past and it speaks to the future to educate us in what we had,” she said.

Another lasting legacy of the park may just be the society itself. MacGougan and others are expressing interest in diversifying their society’s efforts to other parts of Richmond, such as advocating for the improvement of ecological areas within the city. The society is already advocating for tree preservation and planting.

This is the time to ask those big questions like “Why am I here?”; “What’s my purpose in life?”; “How can I make my mark on the world?”

Hopefully, the rest of my life will be spent discovering the answers to those questions.

Structure helps avoid laziness and too much time in front of the TV. There’s an entirely different energy to my vacations now.

Before retirement, I’d squeeze every last ounce of excitement out of my travels, exploring new areas and trying new activities.

Now, I’m more laid back and relaxed. My attitude is one of acceptance of what is, rather than chasing every bright, shiny new experience.

Maybe this is just a product of age, but I don’t think so. It’s a new mindset.

What I’m pursuing now are ideas and beliefs, rather than places and stuff.

My spiritual and religious life has expanded tenfold, and life is much fuller now.

In all honesty, I think I used my busy, stressful work life as an excuse not to delve into things spiritual.

It was an all-or-nothing proposition for me.

Consequently, I did myself a disservice wasting time wallowing in anxiety and spinning my proverbial wheels, when I could have been on the path to a much happier life.

Long ago, a wise man once told me that when you play the “all-or-nothing” game, you always end up with nothing.

Life is not 100 per cent one thing or another.

It’s a blend of this and

that, adding up to what one can only hope will be happiness and fulfillment.

Take your joy when and where you can find it. And never stop looking.

Taking stock of my life is a bit like cleaning house.

It feels great to get rid of the excess baggage that’s weighed me down emotionally.

Freeing up space for the more meaningful things in life is what counts.

Get your garlic fest fix Alan Campbell

et the chewing gum at the ready, the 8th Annual Garlic Festival is on the horizon.

The non-profit Sharing Farm Society is hosting its ever-popular festival on Sunday Aug. 21, with the event being billed as a celebration of the “stinking rose.”

Past years have drawn in a multicultural crowd of more than 5,000 to this all ages event and this year is predicted to be no exception.

And with a mouth-watering lineup of food prepared by local chefs on the menu, there’s every chance of another sizable crowd filling the farm out at Terra Nova on Westminster Highway’s most westerly tip.

This year, the festival is promoting sustainable family living.

“No matter the age, every person in a family brings something to the family table,” said festival organizer Gretchen Gerish.

“Families have the ability to grow and evolve sustainably through mindful play, learning how food grows, healthy eating, and learning about the environmental impact of our daily lives.”

Food will still be the festival’s main attraction, with a fine supporting cast of live entertainment, an expanded farmers’ market, cooking demonstrations and a children’s area.

The festival’s participating restaurants and chefs have been challenged to create healthy, locally sourced, family-friendly meals with a garlic twist.

“I am thrilled to be able to support the farm,” said chef Karen McAthy, of Blue

“I think it is essential for chefs to walk the talk with respect to the increasing challenges regarding food security and our food system.”

McAthy and her chef de cuisine, Eden Chan, will be serving up bites of their plant-based cheese sandwich with tomato tapenade, while her partners will be selling garlic-inspired, plant-based cheeses made specifically for the festival.

“As always, I am just excited to be out at the farm,” said McAthy.

“It is beautiful and the festival is such a unique experience from other food events in that it truly embraces inclusiveness and is accessible.”

The school for kids who don’t like school

D

r. Rick Brennan, Founder and Executive Director of Glen Eden Multimodal Centre, a clinical/ educational program for children with complex needs, has applied scientific thinking and research as a basis for the personalized treatment and care of these individuals. With this approach, Glen Eden has successfully treated and educated many children for whom there were no other options.

“Typically, schools use reinforcement or punishment of behaviours or cognitive strategies that require a great deal of self-awareness. Their aim is to eliminate challenging behaviours and replace them with socially acceptable ones, but, in doing so, they do not consider the internal functioning of a child,” explains Dr. Brennan, who opened Glen Eden’s original program in Tsawwassen in 1984. “We do the opposite here. We consider the dynamics of a child’s development, and their internal and adaptive functioning. Our goal is to systematically change the physical and mental health of the child internally before we expect to change their external behaviour. What we have found is that social and academic success emerges from internal wellbeing.”

Glen Eden Multimodal Centre is a oneof-a-kind clinical/educational program in

Glen Eden students in Science class

North America; and has, for 30-plus years, taken– and transformed – students once deemed as unworkable in all other schoolbased special programs.

Glen Eden Multimodal Centre’s school program is accredited by the B.C. government and is suitable for children and adolescents with complex psychological, neuropsychiatric, socio-emotional and/ or developmental difficulties. “Our students have not been able to fit into other programs,” says Dr. Brennan. “Rather than try to make the child fit a pre-determined program, we completely build the program around the child and see all behaviours not as good or bad, but as expressions of self.”

YVR charity fundraiser celebrates 25th anniversary PHILIPRAPHAEL

Staff Reporter

PRAPHAEL@RICHMOND-NEWS.COM

A

long-running charity fundraiser that got its start in the working community at YVR has an added reason to celebrate this year.

The YVR for Kids event on Aug. 25 is marking its 25th anniversary. During that time the event has raised in the neighbourhood of $4 million for a variety of organizations, most notably Canuck Place, a children’s hospice based in Vancouver.

Wayne Duzita, one of the co-founders of what was originally called the Can-Am Golf For Kids because it invited law enforcement and customs personnel from Canadian and American services at YVR to gather for a round of golf and fundraising dinner, said the event’s longevity is owed to a number of reasons.

One is the sense of camaraderie among the participants, which was heightened through the tragic loss of the daughter of fellow event co-founder Brian Flagel.

Flagel and his wife, Audrey, both worked in Canada Customs at YVR in the early 1990s

and their young daughter, Elise, passed away from cancer just prior to one of the early Can-Am events. Since Elise was cared for in her final few months by nurse Brenda Eng, whose vision for a children’s hospice became Canuck Place, it was decided funds raised would be directed there.

“There was a group of around 20 to 25 law enforcement officers at YVR who used to just go and play golf together and raise a couple of thousand dollars,” said Duzita, who was working at the time for International Aviation Terminals, a major developer and manager of aviation infrastructure and facilities at

n YVR for Kids co-founders Brian Flagel (left) and Wayne Duzita. Photo submitted

YVR. “And when Brian lost his daughter, they came to me and asked if I could bring the corporate world to Can-Am.” In the first year the event raised about $40,000. As it grew and expanded to include those outside YVR’s law enforcement community to other workers on Sea Island, the totals rose. At its peak in 2006, it raised $369,000.

“Our commitment was really to submit a one-time memorial cheque to Canuck Place as part of the building program,” n The Sheraton, Vancouver Airport will host the gala portion of Duzita said, adding Canuck the YVR for Kids event on Aug. 25. Photo submitted Place opened in 1995. “That it again and again, and it kept on going,” he became 25 years. But the cause — dealing with families of children who said. “We just tried to make it as good as we could each year. And people kept wanting to are terminally ill — is what it was all about, come back and we kept it going.” while we also distribute funds to a number of YVR for Kids tees off Aug. 25 at Quilchena other charities.”

Three new construction projects at YVR have won a Silver Excellence Award each, in the Vancouver Regional Construction Association Awards of Excellence. The YVR Expedited Transfer Facility, McArthurGlen Designer Outlet Vancouver Airport, and the A-B Connector received the recognition. The Expedited Transfer Facility 2 (ETF2) is a 183-meter-long structural steel transfer corridor at YVR international airport that required the construction, with minimal disruptions, of a bridge over a major junction with security constraints, staffed information counters, and five-way passenger movement areas that stays open to the public.

The outlet mall caught the attention of judges for its unique Waterplay Luminary fountain system featuring 40 individual nozzles that provide a re-circulating flow of roughly 60 gallons per minute on average when all the features are on. And the A-B Connector, which included relocating and upgrading four passenger gates and an expanded concourse and a new bag hall area, was lauded for recycling about 97 per cent of its construction waste and demolition materials.

“Down there (U.S.), it’s not uncommon to see five to 10-tier cakes, really elaborate ones. In Vancouver, that’s lacking,” she said.

That’s something she is planning to change, with some sage business advice from her father.

“I told her that everything takes time,” Iqbal said. “Nothing happens overnight.

“First, you have to earn your reputation and build up your clientele. She is starting to do that.”

Amira said she learned from her parents the importance of networking with people in the community.

“It’s all about developing a relationship; the importance of becoming part of the fabric of Steveston,” she said.

But the historic fishing village wasn’t her first choice to put down business roots.

Amira originally looked for a store location in Vancouver to be closer to a larger customer base, but it proved difficult to find a location that fit the bill.

“Growing up in Richmond and having my parents have their store here, it held a special place in my heart,” she said. “Then, this place came up. It has a waterfront view and is in a beautiful location. And since it was brand new, I could fix it up to my taste.

“Decorating cakes has always been my passion, so that part is not hard,” she added. “The retail part is something different for me and that’s what I am trying to push right now.

“And the biggest struggle is getting people to know I am here.”

To help promote the new business, Amira began serving high tea that provides a selection of savoury and sweet treats from the bakery that is also equipped to produce vegan and gluten-free cakes.

SPORTS Beyond the Scores

Football has a rich history in Richmond Mark Booth

Sports Editor mbooth@richmond-news.com

Raiders Minor Football is alive and well in Richmond even if few audibles have been required along the way.

The sport has a rich history in this city — dating back to the classic Richmond Colts/Steveston Packers high school rivalry, the powerhouse Raiders Junior Football team and a community program that regularly contended for provincial titles.

Today, the numbers are far from what they used to be and Hugh Boyd Secondary is the only destination to play high school ball. Yet, that doesn’t mean the gridiron game is about to fall completely off the city’s sporting landscape.

For the first time in recent memory, Richmond Minor Football will be entering the upcoming Vancouver Mainland Football League (VMFL) season with teams in every age group.

A working partnership is also in place with Hugh Boyd that sees the two programs promoting each other and sharing coaching resources.

New for 2016, the Raiders will also be offering additional Saturday development sessions Atom and Pee Wee players, on top of their regular practice and game schedule. It reflects the enthusiasm of Richmond Minor president Rob Parmar. He is already member of the Bantam Raiders

coaching staff but scheduled the sessions for Saturdays so he and other experienced coaches can be involved.

“We are just trying to figure out different ways to get the football numbers to grow again,” said Parmar. “Typically at those age levels, the dads come out to coach but you need your best coaches at the youngest age levels, especially with parents asking questions about safety.

“What I would really like to see one day is us go out and market (the game) to elementary schools for a full year and then start up our own Richmond Atom (ages 8-9) league and run it the way we want to run it. Say a four team league with 15 kids on each and they play for the Richmond Cup. It would all be about preparing kids for the next level.”

Parmar added Richmond Minor Football has greatly benefitted from the VMFL adding nine man divisions in Bantam and Midget, as an option to the traditional 12 aside, for associations with lower registration numbers. This is even attracting multi-sport athletes at the Midget level, designed for 16-to-18-year-olds who want to play football for the first time.

“We have to make sure there is a team here in Richmond for those kids that don’t want to attend Hugh Boyd but still want to play,” added Parmar. “A lot of the kids come in with little experience but have a blast playing the nine man game.”

The association also has a

potential player base to draw from with its popular spring flag program that featured 11 teams this past season. Those numbers suggest interest in the sport but perhaps reluctance to play the tackle version of the game.

That’s why Richmond Minor

Football’s number one priority is player’s safety and teaching proper tackling and even falling techniques. It is the main focus of twice weekly sessions currently being held at Minoru Park, leading up to the fall season.

“We are here for the safety of

the kids and making sure they are having fun,” added Parmar.

Richmond Minor Football offers teams in six age categories.

Registration for the 2016 season is still open.

International wins for Matti academy

■ Hong Kong Open U11 squash champion Jacob Lin with his coach Shakiru Mattti. His draw featured 120 players.

It’s been a highly productive and successful summer at the international level for players from the Shakiru Matti Squash Academy.

The Richmond-based program out of Sports Central has produced impressive victories around the globe.

It started at the 2016 Hong Kong Open where Jacob Lin captured the U11 title, becoming the first Canadian to ever win an age group at the platinum world series junior tournament. His division featured a whopping 120 players from around the world — a number that is typical of all entries in a B.C. based tournament.

The Matti contingent also included strong showings

by Sarah Cao and Cynthia Cao. The trio then headed to Niagara-on-the-Lake where they joined other academy members Andrea Toth and Gabriel Yun for the annual Battle of the Border event against the United States.

The five-player representation on the 24-member Canadian team was by far the largest out of any academy or club in the country. The local group had a huge part in Canada winning the competition by collectively going 4-1 in their individual matches.

The overall result in the three combined age divisions — U13, U15 and U17 — was Canada 13 United States 11.

SPORTS ■ Richmond 2002 Islanders were all smiles after their bronze medal performance at the U14 Western Canadian Softball Championships in Cloverdale.

The Islanders defeated Red Deer to earn a podium finish.

Islanders finish 3rd at Westerns

T

he 2002 Richmond Islanders achieved their ultimate season goal last weekend by reaching the podium at the U14 Western Canadian Softball Championships.

“Actually our big goal this season was to qualify and compete in the Westerns, as getting the right to represent BC in this tournament is a very tough road,” said Islanders coach Tyler Gibson. “We started the season with some tough losses, but we really started playing well in late May.” Weeks later, the Islanders captured the district playdowns to earn the opportunity to compete at the Provincial Championships in Surrey. It was their strong play on the provincial stage that earned Richmond a trip to Cloverdale Athletic Park as B.C. #3.

At the Westerns, the girls went 4-2 in the six round-robin games, with wins over the Red Deer Rage AB, Melford Spirit SK, Ridge Meadows Rage, and the Cloverdale Fury.

The losses were close games against the

LEASE SPACE AVAILABLE WHITE ROCK

Sherwood Storm AB and the Gordon Head Wave BC. The Islanders secured third place for the playoffs where they defeated Red Deer again to secure the bronze medal.

“The girls played fantastic all weekend, and the medal really did exceed the coaches’ expectations,” added Gibson. “With the very tough competition in B.C., our season could have been over in early June at the districts, or in early July at Provincials. But the girls powered through June and July and ended up with a bronze medal for B.C. in August!”

The Islanders roster includes: Jen Lum, Cassidy Martin, Zoe McNeill, Regan Gibson, Cassidy Chen, Sandy Yang, Caitlin BradleyTse, Sidney Lim, Jamie Corbett, Anjali Cote, Taylor Zelmer, Katherine Mejias…absent Tayler Chislett-Lefor, and Angelica Symons.

Rounding out the coaching staff are: Steve Lum and Michel Cote.
