Get a whiff of that, Steveston Graeme Wood RICHMOND NEWS

In case you haven’t noticed, anything with a whiff of Steveston tends to be, shall we say, highly expressed upon. Even during Peak Rain, you’re bound to find a tinderbox. Today, we’re finally (I think) seeing the conclusion of one of those darn fires — the Onni saga at the Imperial Landing waterfront. Now, gear up for the next great sagas.

Leading the pack is a new Steveston Community Centre. It’s a conversation that may have more meaning than at ﬁrst glance, as rumour isI the site could densify to include affordable housing, perhaps for seniors — a telling proposal. Regardless of whether this becomes a reality, it reﬂects a trend. Just a stone’s throw away, a 107-unit seniors housing complex at the Steveston Buddhist Temple is coming. With The Maple Residences up and running and a new Lions Manor in the works, you may be seeing a pattern developing. Statistics Canada tells us that, in Steveston, baby-generating millennials packed into condos are outnumbered by geriatric boomers in near empty homes, by about two to one. And regardless of age, as population growth isn’t subsiding, the pressure to build up will increase. So, decisions will need to be made on not just what kind of community centre people want, but also who it’s for. The same can generally be said about housing, where some new condos are being marketed to downsizing boomers. And there’s a lot more food for thought: Save-On Foods is coming; the Phoenix Seine Net Loft is being restored for $11.5 million; Garry Point Park is getting a new $2 million pier; and No. 2 Road, south of Steveston Highway, is being widened and getting a bike path for $12.5 million.

In the long term, residents will surely be tasked to either defend farmland east of No. 2 or let development spread, perhaps under the guise of affordable housing. Along their new bike path, some may be mindful of past encrochments on farmland that has resulted in a row of mega mansions. Awaiting more feedback are pliable plans to revamp Moncton and Chatham streets for better pedestrian use (planter benches, special lights etc.) and to further develop Bayview Street. Meanwhile Coun. Harold Steves is pushing to better inform the public about our Indigenous roots at Britannia. I’m curious to see if the Sakata home and garden on First Avenue is spared by the city. Of course, parking and transit will be discussed beyond our deaths. The Village is so hotly debated because, as the de facto capital of the palatial state of West Richmond, it remains the city’s political, historical and cultural hub — although it increasingly shares that distinction with the Chinese temples, malls and restaurants.

Here, for better or for worse, the cannery closures left a century’s worth of historic buildings — from a dark, industrious past — vulnerable to development. Such forces will continue to alter the Village’s sense of place held by all Richmondites, regardless of what neighbourhood they live in.

Have you witnessed sexual discrimination at work?

Rachel Colosie TRANSPORTATION

I think sexual discrimination is really big at work still. A lot of the “male jobs” are so dominated by males, like mowing lawns, cutting grass. I don’t often see the girls doing that.

Elijah Schultz

Rui Gomes No I haven’t. I know that it exists, but I have not seen it where I work at. But I have seen plenty of them on TV. It’s something that has been around for a long time. It’s about time to put an end to it.

MP protecting rights Storeys is about more of some, not others than folks with addiction Dear Editor, MP Alice Wong has publicized her letter to Service Canada, refusing to validate Summer Jobs Applications over Human Rights Declaration, claiming political interference. I am not a federal Liberal Party supporter, and I certainly do not agree with much of what they have done or failed to do; but, when it comes to applications for government grants, I am 100 per cent in agreement with the condition of respect for individual rights, even those of people whose beliefs you don’t share. Wong appears to have issue with the statement: “Both the job and my organization’s core mandate respect individual human rights in Canada, including the values underlying the Canadian Charter of Rights and

Freedoms as well as other rights. These include reproductive rights and the right to be free from discrimination on the basis of sex, religion, race, national or ethnic origin, colour, mental or physical disability or sexual orientation, or gender identity or expression.” Wong claims applicants must attest that they share certain values with the Liberal Party of Canada. In point of fact, applicants only need to agree to respect individual human rights that we enjoy in this country. So, I’d like to know, Alice, precisely which of the listed individual rights you or your constituents will not agree to respect? In my view, a government grant is not a right but a privilege and I detect a sense of entitlement

from those who complain about the required attestation. If an applicant’s core mandate does not respect all of these individual rights, I don’t want my government funding them. It is their right to lobby or promote against any of the listed rights, but I certainly don’t expect their lobby to be supported by my tax dollars, nor should it be. In my view, Wong is doing nothing more than grandstanding and pandering to those who think they are entitled to government grants and that The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms should protect their right to disrespect and limit the rights of others who don’t share their beliefs.

Keith Paterson RICHMOND

Dear Editor,

I am one of the people who live in a unit in the new Storeys building and would like to respond to your article. You refer to Storeys residents as “people with vulnerabilities such as poverty, addiction, mental health problems and abuse.”

Yes, there are some people who suffer with these afﬂictions, but I know that many people (my neighbours) who live here, do not look at it this way. This is our home. You have made it sound like people who live here are all affected in some manner.

In closing, I have enjoyed food from Storeys Café and admire the wonderful work the Plant sisters are doing. (Brenda Plant is the executive director of Turning Point and Marnie Plant is Turning Point’s special projects manager helping develop Storey’s Café.)

We are happy to live in a brand new building which is well kept and well managed.

Safeway staff will be missed Dear Editor We’re losing our Safeway store at the Broadmoor shopping centre. It isn’t the only Safeway store being closed in Richmond, but it’s our store and has been a part of our community; serving it since 1964. When we ﬁrst heard about the closure, nothing changed that much. Everything was still available with only a few gaps here and there. It’s much different now. There

are large areas of empty shelves. Some of our favourite things are no longer there and we know they won’t be reordered and restocked.

ful, thriving and vibrant community. There’s a rip in that wonderful fabric now and although we’ll all move on, it’ll never be the same.

The only thing that hasn’t changed is the professionalism of the people working there. We’re still greeted with a smile, followed by the excellent service we’ve come to know and enjoy.

At this point, some employees are probably facing an uncertain and unsettling future. To all of them, we wish you the very best wherever you go and whatever you do. You will be missed.

These are the people who have made the store a piece of the fabric that makes a success-

He could marry but could not make a Will (and I doubt they needed a caterer for this wedding!) A recent English case presents an interesting capacity issue. A daughter won an injunction blocking her father from marrying his girlfriend, with whom he had been living for 20 years. He is afflicted with Alzheimer’s. In England, marriage revokes a Will (but it does not in B.C.). The Judge ruled that the father had capacity to marry, but not to make a Will. Therefore, as you might expect, his three daughters received much less under the intestacy distribution than under their father’s Will. The marriage proceeded. The evidence of capacity is often complex, and doubtless these kinds of cases will arise more in future as Dementia rates rise.

Dear Editor, Lately I’ve been noticing a lot of negativity in the newspaper. There is a lot of anger over things such as the cause of housing prices, the proposed units for homeless people and students going to schools out of their catchment area to name a few. People are right to have their frustrations as these are all important things that affect many, but must our focus always be on the negative? A friend of mine was ﬁred from their job recently. The sudden decision left them in a panic, not knowing how they would make ends meet. They also feel they might have to give up their dog, who has been an emotional support and great friend to them, as

they don’t know if they can afford to feed and care for it anymore. The lack of compassion shown to my friend caused a lot of disruption in their life. As someone who volunteers with homeless youth, I have learned to not take anything for granted. In the wake of the Humboldt and Toronto tragedies, I think we should try and hold on to what is positive in our lives as we never know when it will be taken away from us. If we can strengthen the bridges that connect us, instead of choosing to tear them down, I think we’ll be able to help one another move forward while adding positivity to our community.

Is council captured? a detrimental effect on farming in Richmond.

Dear Editor, If you look at any real estate ad for ALR land in Richmond today (11 months after council enacted a bylaw to cap house size at 10, 753 square feet on all farmland lots above 0.5 acres/0.2 hectares) you will see what is being sold is not the land’s potential to grow food but the problematic fact that you can build mansions on the ALR and avail of tax breaks with nominal farming activity. The size and siting of the house on farmland is totally within the power of the municipal/ city government and has always been so. And, yes, the size and siting of the house is an effective tool for curtailing speculation. You only have to look at the example of Delta and their much more restrictive house size and the associated 80 per cent rate of farmland utilization to attest this idea. What has happened on Richmond’s ALR under the watch of the current council and mayor is completely the opposite. According to Richmond FarmWatch, “50 farms were lost to residential development just within the last year.” This is evidence that residential speculation on farmland is having

What we see on farmland in Richmond is not just a result of market forces but a distortion of market caused by what economists call “regulatory capture.” According to Wikipedia, “Regulatory capture is a form of government failure which occurs when a regulatory agency, created to act in the public interest, instead advances the commercial or political concerns of special interest groups that dominate the industry or sector it is charged with regulating.” So far, Richmond’s city council (as regulator) has failed to provide effective regulation that will protect Richmond’s ALR from mansion building and instead seems to have given in to vested interests that would prefer to see speculation grow on farmland without any regard to how it is affecting agriculture. I hope next time around, the council and mayor will address this problem effectively and not ignore the “Made in Richmond” realities on the ALR.

On the fringes of Richmond’s City Centre area, Eckersley Road is transitioning from a detached home neighbourhood to a street lined with townhouses. As such, many of the homes are in derelict condition. The house in question sold in January 2016 for $1.8 million and is now assessed at $2.2 million. Police tape cordoned off the area as school children walked past during the Monday rush.

Just before 6 p.m., Richmond Fire-Rescue were called to a townhouse complex at 10680 Springmont Drive. While crews were initially responding to reports of smoke, the call was quickly upgraded to a first alarm fire as flames could be seen from the townhouse. Fire and rescue crews found the occupant

Titanic exhibition to arrive safely Daisy Xiong RICHMOND NEWS

The Titanic, once thought “unsinkable”, was the world’s largest ship in 1912 but was destroyed after colliding with an iceberg on its maiden voyage. Now, a major international exhibition about the tragedy will stop at Lipont Place in Richmond this summer. The world-class Titanic: The Artifact Exhibition, running from June 23, 2018 through to Jan. 11, 2019, will explore the Titanic’s compelling human stories, which are told through more than 120 authentic artifacts and extensive recreations. Visitors will travel back 106 years and be issued replica boarding passes — the same that were issued to passengers aboard the Titanic. The chronological voyage through the Titanic will chart the ship’s construction, life on-board, the ill-fated sinking and recent artifact rescue efforts. People will also be able to marvel at the re-created accommodations and press their palms against an iceberg while learning about countless stories. Toni Zhang McAfee, executive director of Lipont Place, told the Richmond News that the gallery was selected because of its spaciousness and convenient location. As well, the building will be turned into the shape of Titanic during the exhibition. “At Lipont Place the Titanic exhibition will ﬁnd a natural home allowing both the venue and the exhibition to make

their debut in Metro Vancouver,” said McAfee. “We look forward to welcoming all visitors, local and international, to the magniﬁcent space and this worldclass exhibition.” The exhibition is produced by Premier Exhibitions, Inc., an Atlanta-based company that is dedicated to preserving the legacy of the Titanic, its wreck site and all her passengers and crew through programs and exhibitions. Before coming to Richmond, the exhibition had already visited cities such as Paris, Las Vegas, Dublin, Stockholm, London, Cape Town, Guangzhou, Orlando and Melbourne.

The world-class exhibition, running from June 23 through to January, at Lipont PLace, will explore the Titanic’s compelling human stories.

“Titanic is one of the most legendary tales of our time and we are thrilled to bring this remarkable exhibition to our hometown in Vancouver,” said Daoping Bao, executive chairman, president and CEO of Premier Exhibitions. “Educational, emotional and appropriate for all ages, Titanic: The Artifact Exhibition takes visitors on a journey through the life of the Titanic.

“Along the way visitors will learn countless stories of heroism and humanity that pay homage to the indomitable force of the human spirit in the face of tragedy.” More information about Titanic: The Artifact Exhibition can be found at titanicvancouver.com or by calling 604285-9975. Tickets are available for purchase at $17.95 for adults, $15.95 for seniors and $13.95 for students. Children under the age of ﬁve are free. Group pricing is available.

Rangers abound in Blundell hood Daisy Xiong RICHMOND NEWS

Four unusual guests paid a visit to McKay elementary last week. The guests were a Harris’s hawk, a (descented) striped skunk, a laughing kookaburra and a caiman lizard. More than 200 students from Kindergarten to Grade 7 attended a special class with the critters in the school’s gym. The classes are delivered by a national organization called Earth Rangers, which aims to help children learn about and engage with the environment and animal behaviour.

search for food in a bin. Presenters explained why the animals behaved this way during the demonstrations. Presenters also let the hawk ﬂy above students’ heads in the room, provoking a lot of laughter. Gill told the students that while some animals may not be likable, they still make important contributions to the environment. The skunk, for example, helps the ecosystem by eating things that other animals don’t like. Students were also shown a video about how climate change is threatening certain animals, such as the snowshoe hare, a rabbit that disguises itself by changing its hair colour according to different climates.

“We have a team of over 52 different animal ambassadors from all over the world for this program,” said Chris Gill, presenter and animal handler of the Earth Rangers.

“I learned that we play a huge part in protecting wildlife, and that there is so much we can do,” said Hannah, a student, adding that the class was very interactive and fun compared to regular nature classes.

“We found that kids really connect with the live animal aspect of the show and that it really helps them connect with the wildlife we have here in Canada.”

Student Ziad said he learned about climate change and how some animals are in danger. He is eager to do more to help the environment.

During the class, animals displayed some of their features, which included the kookaburra’s laugh-like squawk and a skunk’s

If you don’t learn them when you are young, it’s harder when you are older,” said Turnbull. “So we start to heighten the children’s awareness from the time when they’re little,

in the hope that when they are adults, what they have learnt will just be part of how they react to the environment.” The Earth Rangers now have more than 150,000 child members across the country, including 37,281 in Western Canada. This year, Earth Rangers will give more than 900 presentations across the country.

Courthouse discrimination has no defence Alan Campbell RICHMOND NEWS

ed up with having to ﬁeld remarks about what she’s wearing and fueled by a desire to eradicate discrimination in her workplace, Sarah Leamon took matters into her own hands.

She stopped short of taking the law into her own hands, which is well advised, considering Leamon is a Richmond-based criminal defence lawyer. Instead, she founded the Women’s Association of Criminal Lawyers (WACL) just over a month ago in a determined drive to shed much-needed light on apparently overt

to build support behind WACL. In the meantime, she hopes bringing the issue out into the open will make some people think twice before speaking. “Almost every single day there are critiques about what you’re wearing, from anyone and everyone: other lawyers, male and female, Crown Counsel, clients, court clerks and police ofﬁcers, the whole gamut,” said Leamon, who has been practising for eight years. “I even recall a (female) judge saying I needed to wear a scarf over my jacket, because she wanted me covered up to my neck. That was humiliating. “I would be hard pressed to ﬁnd a female criminal lawyer who hasn’t experienced it. The shoes are a huge thing; ‘those heels are too high,’ or ‘your top is too low, you need to pull that up.’ “We have to make decisions as female lawyers that men don’t have to make. I have to think, ‘should I wear red lipstick today,’ ‘should I curl my hair,’ ‘should I wear pants or a skirt?’

Most women consider leaving criminal law due to sexual discrimination, according to a study.

Leamon, who practises on Cedarbridge Way — a stone’s throw from Richmond Provincial Court — recognizes it will take time

“Clients also make inappropriate remarks or doubt I’m even a lawyer, it’s almost an everyday experience on the phone.

“People need to hear it from a man, and I sometimes have to put a male colleague on the phone because a client won’t take my word for it.” This, as Leamon points out, is where WACL

Richmond lawyer Sarah Leamon founded the Women’s Association of Criminal Lawyers (WACL) just over a month ago to shed light on what she claims is overt sexism in B.C.’s courtrooms. Alan Campell photo comes in, citing studies – including a recent one done in Ontario by the Law Society – that illustrate criminal law in particular being a very difﬁcult ﬁeld for women to work. “(That study) found that women were entering criminal law at the same rate as men, but were leaving so much faster than men, and faster than any other area of law,” she added. “They found that more than 60 per cent of women in criminal law were thinking of leaving. They felt isolated. Most criminal defense lawyers are sole practitioners and it’s hard to create meaningful work relationships. “I basically work 24 hours a day, seven days a week; I have to be on call. Many women have families to run and children to look after and that lack of parity (in numbers) feeds the discriminatory attitudes and sexism in a continually male-dominated bar.” Ironically, Leamon said her local court around the corner is actually one of the

friendliest in the province for female lawyers. “There seems to be more female Crown Counsel members and there seems to be more sense of community; I’ve always been treated very well there,” she said. Leamon said she wants to hear from other women in similar positions and wants to know “what they need and what is the best way to support them. “I’ve heard of some women asking about networking opportunities, to be able to go out, get together over a drink and set up mentorship opportunities.” So far, Leamon said WACL has been well received among her peers, with many commenting that she is “ﬁlling a gap in the ﬁeld.” Ultimately, concluded Leamon, she wants “to be able to make it more comfortable and more inclusive (in the profession) and have gender parity. “I want women to enter criminal law and stay around.”

Alan Campbell RICHMOND NEWS

In a bid to survive and thrive, the Richmond Chinese Community Society (RCCS) has made a slight course correction along with a number of changes. RCCS said goodbye to two of its three full-time staff recently — including the retir-

ing, long-time executive director Henry Beh – to reduce costs at its home on Westminster Highway at Buswell Street. Since then, the volunteer board of directors has picked up the slack at the mainly Cantonese-speaking non-proﬁt and started reaching out to the Mandarinspeaking community in Richmond. The move, according to

RCCS president Linda Li, has worked out very well, with more than 400 new recruits signing up for the organization that already had more than 1,000 active members. And, as well as providing social events and classes for the city’s Chinese community, RCCS is currently writing a joint grant application with the predominantly Englishspeaking Minoru Seniors Society 21

“We want to be more than a social club, we want to provide more services to our members.”

LINDA LI

Previously, there was a perception that the RCCS’ move last year from Park Road to its current, smaller location — hence, less programming and less revenue — was the main reason for its ﬁnancial difﬁculties.

Although many changes are afoot at RCCS, one transition it won’t be making is into the world of local politics.

“That’s not entirely true. Revenue is not the problem, the expenses were the problem; that was the part we had no control

“We want to educate and introduce people to services that are available in the city. We didn’t focus on that before.”

“Not politics. Deﬁnitely not,” said Li.

Li added that, given the ﬁnances, there is no plans to replace the well-respected former executive director Beh. RCCS director and past president Thomas Yu said the joint grant application with the Minoru Seniors Society will hopefully connect isolated seniors from different cultures. “If we get the grant, from the Richmond Community Foundation, we’re going to have a special roundtable with Minoru to talk about working more with them and other community groups,” said Yu. “We’re not trying to compete against each other, we need to work together; why re-invent the wheel? “We have good programs, they have good programs, we can join them and they can join us, a kind of cross-pollination. “We (all) have to be more creative in ﬁnding revenue…it certainly opens up opportunities,” added Yu.

Q: Can Chiropractic help during pregnancy? A:

What is the best thing that has Q: happened to me in my 25 year

Chiropractic is a safe and natural treatment that can be extremely beneficial to the pregnant patient. It is a drug free approach to help improve your alignment to minimize nerve stress, reduce intrauterine constraint, and reduce lower back and pelvic pain during your pregnancy. The female body can experience a number of dramatic physical changes during pregnancy that can lead to considerable discomfort. With a shift in the center of gravity caused by the growing fetus and the hormonal changes there is often greater physical loads on the joints, muscles and ligaments where the lower back and pelvis meet. This can lead to sacroiliac dysfunction and subluxations or misalignments that cause nerve stress in the spine.The pain can sometimes be disabling, and weight bearing can increase the pain making even walking too painful to do. Chiropractic adjustments designed for the pregnant body can re-establish the proper movement and function in the pelvis and joints. Webster Technique developed by Dr. Larry Webster, a chiropractor, is a special technique designed to minimize intra uterine constraint, and help reposition babies in utero. Chiropractic care, delivered at any stage during pregnancy is a great idea, whether you are dealing with pain or not. It can lead to reduced stress and strain on joints, nerves and muscles. The final product is a happy and healthier mom-to-be. Call for your complementary consultation today 604-207-9050.

Yes, silver is at the lowest in about a year. It is down 9% in US dollars and 14% in Canadian dollars.

With these low prices, we have stocked up on one ounce Silver Maple Leaves and one, ten and hundred ounce silver bars. This is the best selection we have ever had.

When customers come in to purchase, we show the prices the largest dealers in the lower mainland charge and then we beat those prices. Gold in the last year has gone up 6% in US dollars and 10% in Canadian dollars. We have noticed a lot more gold coins , bars and especially scrap gold jewelery coming in from people selling. Considering that gold is at 92% of its lifetime high in Canadian dollars (only 62% in US dollars) I see a lot of people capitalizing on these high prices by selling. We had one customer with 32 one ounce gold bars check with us and we were able to pay over $200.00 more than the largest Bullion dealer in Canada. You should check our new location out and compare pricing if you are thinking of buying or selling.

Most people wear sunglasses to protect them from ultraviolet radiation from the sun, but we may not think of wearing them indoors. However, there is ongoing research focusing on the impact of a certain type of light, BLUE LIGHT from fluorescent lights, LED lights, and display screens. In particular, exposure to electronic devices is linked to eye strain syndrome (includes blurry vision, difficulties focusing, dry and irritated eyes, headaches) and can contribute to age-related macular degeneration. A diet rich in colourful fruits and vegetables can provide nutrients needed by the body to naturally protect itself. To boost this protection, supplements containing the antioxidants lutein, astaxanthin, and zeathanthin (such as OCU-BLUE from Prairie Naturals) can help.

Easy answer ...... the friendships I have made over the years with my clients. And, I just received the greatest gift EVER! One of my very first clients way back in my first year as a licensee has become one of my dearest friends. I have watched her fall in love, marry, have a family, sell, and then buy Real Estate through me. Recently, she brought her 25 year old ‘baby’ to me as a new client (she is buying her very first piece of Real Estate). I can’t tell you how much this means to me! I have had many many repeat clients over these 25 wonderful years, some have done 12+ transactions with me by their side. To know that I am trusted and valuable to my clients is the greatest reward I could ask for. I work hard every day to be honest, ethical and thorough, and that is never going to change. Thank you to all of the people who have helped me in my career so far, and NO, I’m not retiring....ever.

ASK A PRO Q: Hi Rob

Q: Do I Need Condominium Insurance? A: Absolutely! Part 2:

Why do bathroom sinks and bathtubs have “overflows” and kitchen and sinks do not? – Thanks, Mark.

Condominium Corporations carry insurance on the strata building and within that policy are various deductibles. In the event of a claim, the Strata Corporation may assess the unit owners collectively or individually, to pay the cost of one of these deductibles, which can often exceed $25,000+. Personal Condominium policies can provide coverage to pay for some of these deductibles, commonly referred to as “Deductible Assessment Coverage”. However, limitations do apply but incremental increases are often available to bridge these gaps.

A: HiGoodMark,question. The answer is two-fold. The largest

Suzanne Lima,

CAIB, CIP It’s critical to know what deductibles you could be obligated to pay and Branch Manager – if you don’t have adequate coverage, the cost could be paid out of your Garden City pocket. Don’t let that happen!

Our Central Agencies Ltd. team is available 7 days a week to review both your condo policy and strata building policy to highlight what coverage you need and provide affordable options.

reason would be that overflow passages are known to be unsanitary. In an area intended for food preparation, the cultivation of mildew and bacteria is a more serious concern, where it isn’t so much of a concern in handwashing sinks and bathtubs. Unless you wash your veggies where you bathe your stinky feet. The second answer is just simple economics. North American codes don’t require kitchen overflows. So, they don’t add them. Regardless of the reason, don’t forget to turn off your taps! Your bathtub may drain out through the overflow, but, if you walk away from dishes in the sink with the tap on, you may come back to a new wading pool in your kitchen.

Whatbeen adjustments could I expect have wearing dentures for many Q: IQ: when I have new full dentures made?

Q: Who calls us the most and why? A:

Lawyers are the most common callers. We are evidence collectors and investigators and we assist law firms in that respect. We send them business too, primarily as our clients often need legal advice before proceeding on whatever action they are contemplating. And occasionally law firms call for other services such as doing a check for surveillance devices, our second most common set of callers. For callers asking for bug sweep checks, roughly one-third are paranoid schizophrenics. We are trained to identify those individuals and we deal with them appropriately. The rest of the callers are companies seeking our services right across the board, the most common companies being other private investigative agencies that don’t have our technological expertise and require our assistance. We employ other P.I. firms too as cases often require putting together a large team with a mixed set of skills, not all of which we may have in-house. It is an interesting world out there.

Notary Public

To travel outside of Canada with a minor child or children, the traveling parent requires a letter of authorization, normally in the form of a Statutory Declaration, from the parent that is not traveling, granting permission to travel outside of Canada with the child/children. Customs and Immigration of the country to which the parent is traveling, and to some degree the airlines on which the parent is traveling, will require that the document from the other parent be notarized. In other words, the document must be signed in the presence of a notary and affixed with his/ her stamp and seal. The original notarized document is required for travel. Photocopies are not acceptable. Call your local notary and they will tell you what information they need to prepare the document, i.e. legal names, birth dates, passport numbers, travel dates, etc.

STEVESTON

Community Centre inches ahead the replacement of the Steveston Community Centre as a priority project for 20162026.

Alyse Kotyk RICHMOND NEWS

With two rounds of open public consultations under its belt, the Steveston Community Centre is slowly moving forward with many ideas, but few concrete plans. In January, the City of Richmond circulated a public survey through Let’sTalkRichmond. ca that allowed residents to identify what they wanted to see in a new facility. In April, another opportunity for online input as well as a town hall meeting were held to get feedback on initial proposals for the community space. “We said, ‘here are some of the types of spaces that would ﬁt the needs and wants identiﬁed by the community’ and asked for the public to comment and respond to that,” said city spokesperson Ted Townsend. “We’ll take all of that information from both rounds of consultation and use that to formulate a report back to council on some potential options for what the new community centre could look like.” In December 2016, the city highlighted

Some current proposed spaces include open gathering areas, learning spaces for various ages, a large dividable multi-purpose room, a gymnasium, meeting rooms, ﬁtness rooms, a kitchen and a library branch. While Townsend said it’s likely that an entirely new building would be constructed rather than renovating the old centre, it’s not known where the exact location of the new facility would be. “We have not determined a location for the new centre, whether it would be on the old site or somewhere else within the park,” he said. Whether a new building would would be used for housing units as well is also still to be determined. “At this point all we’re looking at is what do we need for a new community centre,” Townsend said. “We’re trying to get that tied down and then once we go forward then it would be up to council to provide additional direction.”

The City of Richmond has identiﬁed Steveston Community Centre as a priority capital project and is now undertaking public consultation. Photo submitted Currently, feedback from the most recent consultation is being compiled for a staff report to council. According to a staff report on public engagement for this project, a three-day de-

sign meeting will follow later this spring or early in the summer where stakeholders and the public would be invited to participate in the design process. A ﬁnal report with concept options and costs are expected by the fall.

PAIDADVERTISEMENT

New Arthritis Painkiller Works on Contact and Numbs Pain in Minutes New cream works faster and is more targeted than oral medications. Key ingredients penetrate the skin within minutes to relieve arthritis pain, joint stiffness, and muscle soreness. Users report signiﬁcant and immediate relief.

By Robert Ward Associated Health Press TORONTO – Innovus Pharmaceuticals has introduced a new arthritis pain relief treatment that works in minutes. Sold under the brand name Apeaz™, the new pain relief cream numbs the nerves right below the skin. When applied to an arthritic joint, or a painful area on the body, it delivers immediate relief that lasts for hours and hours. The powerful painkilling effect is created by the creams active ingredients, three special medical compounds. Anesthetics are used in hospitals during surgery. They block nerve signals from the brain so that patients don’t feel pain and they work fast. The anesthetic found in Apeaz™ is the strongest available without a prescription. The cream form allows users to directly target their area of pain. It works where it is applied. The company says this is why the product is so effective and fast acting. “Users can expect to start feeling relief immediately after applying,” explains Dr. Bassam Damaj, President of Innovus Pharmaceuticals. “There will be a pleasant warming sensation that is followed by a cool, soothing one. This is how you know that the active ingredients have reached the affected joint and tissue.”

Works In Minutes For arthritis suffers, Apeaz™ offers impressive advantages over traditional medications. The most obvious is how quickly it relieves pain discomfort. The cream contains the maximum approved dose of a top anesthetic, which penetrates the skin in a matter of minutes to numb the area that’s in pain. This relief lasts for several hours. Published pre-clinical animal studies have shown that the ingredients in Apeaz™ can also prevent further bone and cartilage destruction. There are also no negative side effects like from oral medication. Apeaz™ delivers its ingredients through the skin. Oral medications are absorbed in the digestive tract. Overtime, the chemicals in pills can tear the delicate lining of the stomach, causing ulcers and bleeding. When compared to other arthritis medications, Apeaz™ is a fraction of the cost. At less than $2 a day, the cream quickly is becoming a household name.

Those with terrible arthritis in their hands and ﬁngers, love how easy Apeaz™ is to open. The jar ﬁts in the palm of the hand, which makes it much easier to use.

Instant Pain Relief Without a Prescription Many Apeaz™ users report significant improvements in daily aches and pain. Many more report increased flexibility less stiffness, and decreased muscle soreness. They are moving with less pain for the first time in years, like Henry Esber, an early user of Apeaz™. “I’ve tried more pills than I can count. I’ve also had a handful of cortisone shots. Nothing is as effective as this product. With Apeaz™, I get relief right away. I rub a little on my hands. It keeps the pain away. It also prevents the pain from getting really bad. It’s completely changed my life.”

How It Works

Apeaz™ contains the highest, non-prescription dose of a medical compound that ﬁghts pain on contact. When applied to the skin it goes to work within minutes by penetrating right to the source of your pain, numbing the nerve endings. “This is why Apeaz™ is so effective for people with arthritis pain. It reduces pain while adding an additional potential layer of xplain Damaj. joint support,” explains Apeaz is a Natural Health Product approved by Health Canada for the following conditions: • Arthritis pain • Simple back pain • Strains • Sprains • Athletic injuries • Muscle stiffness and pain • Wrist, elbow, shoulder, hip, knee, ankle, foot, muscle or joint pain

A New Way to Treat Pain Although Dr. Damaj and his team say that their cream is the fastest and most effective way to relieve arthritis pain, they believe there is still a reason to take joint pills. The most effective are those which help to further lubricate, strengthen and support the joints. That’s why every container of Apeaz™ comes with ArthriVarx™, a breakthrough supplement that’s taking on joint support in an entirely new way. ArthriVarx™ works on your joints, making it the perfect companion to Apeaz™. “ArthriVarx™ contains special compounds published to lubricate the joints and connective tissues that surrounds them. With daily use, they improve joint health and can give an extra cushion,” explains Dr. Damaj.

Apeaz™: Quick Acting Pain and Arthritis Cream is Now Available Without a Prescription

“When combined with Apeaz™, it becomes the perfect system to tackle arthritis. While the anesthetic component of Apeaz™ is working on the outside, relieving pain on contact, ArthriVarx™ is working on the inside, adding cushioning to the joints”’

A Powerful Combination For Arthritis and Joint Pain With daily use, Apeaz™ plus ArthriVarx™ helps users live a more vital, pain free life without any of the negative side effects or interactions associated with oral drugs. By delivering fast, long-lasting, and targeted relief from joint pain and supporting longterm joint health, Apeaz™ and ArthriVarx™ is the newest, most effective way to tackle your arthritis pain. You can now enjoy an entirely new level of comfort that’s both safe and affordable. It is also extremely effective, especially if nothing else has worked well for you.

White talked to the News about his dedication to junior golf last summer at Savage Creek on No. 6 Road where he often taught lessons. In his own words, Crisologo pays tribute to White and how he was inspired by him. The one question I get asked often is ‘why did you choose golf?’ The short and quick answer I like to give is that my dad thought it was a good idea to introduce me to all sports and see which one stuck. Here’s the long story that got me hooked to competitive golf, one that seems very ﬁtting. Golf really isn’t the most affordable sport in the world. Golf clubs cost money. Golf tournaments cost money. Travelling to golf tournaments cost money. Fortunately, at one of the local driving ranges in Richmond, a piece of yellow paper caught my mom’s attention. She browsed through it and saw that this

Amateur star Chris Crisologo

‘tour’ held a number of tournaments throughout the year. These events were very affordable and something that her 7 year-old son could possibly enjoy. Me being me, I was mortiﬁed at the idea of trying something new and doing something different. The rules of golf were so foreign to me I wouldn’t be able to remember any of them. There were too many of them. On top of that, there was etiquette to the game. There was just no way I would be able to play the game. That all changed when I met Mr. Harry 34 White.

Voted #7 “Vancouver’s Top 10 Golf Courses”, ~by BC Business Magazine With the towering beauty of Vancouver’s North Shore Mountains serving as a backdrop, Mayfair Lakes in Richmond is a genuine golf sanctuary, offering year-round golf in a secluded country ambiance that’s just minutes from Vancouver. The intrigue lies in the abundance of lakes and waterways that come into play on 13 of the 18 holes, adding as much challenge as aesthetic appeal to the course.

GOLF SPECIAL

Remembering Harry White Harry was the coordinator of the Junior Linkster Tour Canada in BC. He had a passion for the game and that showed throughout his tour. Respect, sportsmanship and camaraderie were the biggest themes.

I remember at the beginning of the year, there would be a rules seminar, where all the junior golfers would attend and learn the rules and etiquette of the sport. Sure, there were a lot of them and sure you had to get 7-to-12-year-olds to pay attention for a couple hours, but the amazing part was that he did it. It was all based on respect and all the kids would listen.

3551 Granville Ave | Richmond BC

Getting a 10 year-old kid a membership into a private golf club isn’t easy. Through his connection at Marine Drive Golf Club, he was able to help me gain junior membership status. There is no explanation in the difﬁculty of getting a kid with no family connection at the club a membership, but many juniors like me got in because they were recommended by Harry.

Blueliner taking her game to NCAA Div. 1 level It was her second season playing on the Sabres’ U19 prep team. She was one of six players to sign her National Letter of Intent back in November. The Sabres also had eight named to U18 national teams, including Vorster and Newfounland’s Maggie Connors on Team Canada. That stint concluded in January with a bronze medal at the World Championships in Russia.

From Minnesota to Connecticut. That’s the next stop in Courtney Vorster’s promising hockey career. The 18-year-old Richmond blueliner is taking her game to NCAA Division One next fall at Quinnipiac University. She is one of six players in the Bobcats’ 2022 recruiting class and is expected to make an immediate impact for a team that went 1617-3 this past season and bowed out in the quarter-ﬁnals of the East Coast Athletic Conference playoffs.

Vorster won a silver a year before in Canadian colours and was joined by goaltender Kendra Woodland as the lone B.C. players on the 2018 team.

Vorster had the attention of NCAA scouts long ago and actually made a verbal commitment to Quinnipiac back in 2016. ”Representing her school, province, and country, Courtney has shown an ability to lead, raise her level of play in high pressure situations, and make tremendous contributions to winning teams at both ends of the ice,” said head coach Cassandra Turner. “Her poise with the puck, her ability to think the game, and her growth into an elite level defender have her prepared to immediately succeed at this level. “Her drive to get better every day, work collaboratively in pursuit of development, and accept nothing less than her best reﬂect the ideals and highest standards of Bobcat Hockey.” Vorster recently concluded a three-year stint at Shattuck-St.

Her journey to becoming one of the country’s top up-and-coming players included a number of years playing for boys teams where she more than held her own.

Courtney Vorster captained Team BC to bronze at the 2017 U18 Nationals. Next stop for her Quinnipiac University

Mary’s by helping the renowned Minnesota hockey boarding school win its third straight national championship with a 5-1 victory over Detroit’s Bell Tire in the title game.

Vorster was named MVP with the Seafair Islanders Bantam A1 squad during the the 2014-15 season. Two years earlier, she captained Richmond Minor’s top Pee Wee boys rep team. She also spent time in Delta Hockey Academy’s skill development program. Along the way, she has received tremendous family support, including her older hockey playing brothers Ryan and Devon who just won the Cyclone Taylor Cup as a member of the Richmond Sockeyes.

Gawdin captains Swift Current to ﬁrst trip to WHL ﬁnals in 25 years

Glenn Gawdin is sure making his ﬁnal season in the Western Hockey League a memorable and lasting one.

The 21-year-old Richmond native has captained the Swift Current Broncos to the WHL ﬁnals for the ﬁrst time in 25 years after a 5-1 game six road victory over the Lethbridge Hur-

ricanes on Monday night.

Gawdin will get the opportunity to play just two hours from his hometown when the Broncos take on the Everett Silvertips in the championship series. Games one and two are in Swift Current before the teams head to the West Coast for games three and four next Tuesday

and Wednesday. If necessary, game ﬁve would also be played in Everett on May 11.

Monday’s game six win ﬁnally ended the home ice dominance in the Lethbridge series. Gawdin returned to the line-up in Saturday’s 4-3 game ﬁve win after missing both contests in Lethbridge with an injury.

He had a pair of assists in the clincher and sits ﬁfth in league playoff scoring with 25 points in 18 games, including nine goals.

The Calgary Flames prospect had a huge regular season, ﬁnishing second in league scoring with 125 points in 67 games, including 56 goals.

Underdog Air Attack Gold make history “Between games and even during timeouts that’s what we talked about more than anything else. It was the boys believing in themselves and each other. There was actually very little about Xs and Os or strategy,” said co-coach Matt Ng, who launched Air Attack’s boys program back in 2008. “They played with so much composure and never got rattled even when they lost the ﬁrst set.”

Mark Booth RICHMOND NEWS

U15 Air Attack Gold certainly saved its best for last to produce a historic and stunning victory at last weekend’s Volleyball B.C. Club Provincial Championships in Abbotsford. The 11th seeded Richmond-based squad came out of nowhere to capture gold among the 19 entries — becoming the ﬁrst-ever Air Attack boys team to win a B.C. title at the top Division One level.

Marcus Lam was named the tournament’s MVP while teammates Mackenzie Hui and Amos Cheng earned all-star honours. The team also includes: Willy Billedo, Russell Chan, Aiden Chin, Micah Funk, Aidan Huynh, Austin Koﬂer, Jordan Lee and Owen Liu.

The thrilling run concluded Saturday night with a three-set win over Vancouver Apex Ignite. Air Attack dropped the first game 25-21, rallied for a 25-21 game two win then took the decisive set 15-13. It was a similar script they had been following all weekend that saw them thrive under adversity. The semi-final triumph over Okanagan’s Sky Black was capped by an 18-16 third set win after been romped 25-11 in the opener. Air Attack had shown flashes of their potential throughout the season but had never cracked the top six of

any Volleyball B.C.-sanctioned tournament until its magical run in Abbotsford. Besides rallying from early deﬁcit, the team dealt with other road bumps including injuries to a couple of players who returned to make an

impact in the championship match, while another nearly missed the tournament due to his grades. The non-proﬁt club insists on a high academic standard in order to play. The team featured talent from McRoberts, Burnett, McMath, Rich-

The victory was certainly one to cherish for Wong, who has spent a tremendous amount of time coaching at the local senior boys high school level. “We have been emphasizing teamwork, next point mentality, being willing to make mistakes, being aggressive in tough times and being willing to do the little things for the team since the start of the season,” said Wong. “It literally wasn’t until the very last day that they all put their egos aside and truly played as a team.”

HEALTH CARE HITS CLOSE TO HOME FOR XIBITA, A LONG-TIME FOUNDATION SUPPORTER

f you ou call Richmond home ffor work, ork, you are likely spending upwards ds of 40 hours per week here in the community. Richmond has hundreds of businesses, with more than 100,000 employees. Xibita, a local company that produces large scale, innovative trade show displays and graphic designs, has called Richmond home for three decades. Xibita recognizes the importance of heath care being a cornerstone of its community, and has been a generous supporter and sponsor of Richmond Hospital Foundation for over 15 years. Xibita contributes spectacular, large-format digital printing and sophisticated site signage that help ignite excitement at Richmond Hospital Foundation’s annual fundraising events including the Golf Tournament in June and Starlight Gala in October.

“It’s been a great relationship,” says senior account manager, Brian Keobke. “We’ve been so fortunate in our level of success as a company that it’s just deeply ingrained in our culture that we should give back to the community. Nobody succeeds by themselves. You need the support of the community,” Brian offers a knowing smile, “Especially the hospital.” Like many other businesses, Xibita came to experience ﬁrsthand the need for health care nearby when one day last January, Brian relied on Richmond Hospital to save his life. “Like many men, I almost died from stubbornness,” Brian says with a laugh.

Q A

Brian was experiencing xperiencing chest ches pains at his desk. But thanks to quick thinking by a co-worker and thoroughness by Richmond Hospital staff, Brian is still here to talk about it. Xibita’s creative director Ken Button insisted on taking Brian to Richmond Hospital when Brian described his symptoms. But Brian initially resisted getting medical help. “On the drive over, I kept asking Ken to just get me some antacid so we could go back to the office. January is our busiest month!” Turns out, Ken’s instincts were bang on. Brian had suffered a minor heart attack. Given its size, initial tests couldn’t reveal the attack. But the Emergency physician knew something serious was happening and admitted him. “I wanted to be discharged”, explains Brian, “But my doctor didn’t want me to leave until he understood exactly what was going on.” Then, as Brian was being transferred to a hospital room, he suffered a full tilt heart attack. Soon, Brian was sent for a procedure then returned to Richmond Hospital for monitoring. “It was just a remarkable level of care. I couldn’t believe it,” says Brian. Brian was back managing Xibita accounts within days of his surgery. He’s grateful for the care he received and thankful it’s not only Richmond residents who can rely on excellent medical help in their community, but fellow businesses can also trust in the top notch care Richmond Hospital provides.

How can you and your company get involved in improving health care in Richmond? Take an active leadership role to support Richmond Hospital. Contact Richmond Hospital Foundation to learn more about sponsorship opportunities to help purchase new medical equipment, improve patient care services and help save lives right here at home.
