Families are loving the new look South Arm Play Park VIKKI HUI vhui@richmond-news.com

A big zipline, towering slides and swings are some of the features in the newly reopened South Arm Community Park playground.

The playground was closed for almost a year for reconstruction due to the scale and complexity of the project. At the time of closing, the removal of its iconic castle left the community feeling conflicted.

Although there is still some minor work left to do, city spokesperson Clay Adams said the playground was deemed safe to reopen last week.

Richmond resident Miriam Still and her two kids, like many in the community, decided to check out the playground as soon as they saw others playing inside it last Wednesday.

“We live nearby and my kids were so excited that the playground has opened,” Still told the Richmond News.

So far, her son likes the big slide with multiple climbing features the most.

Carol Chan and her two daughters, four and two years old, also visited the playground as soon as it reopened. Her four-year-old, along with many other young patrons, is especially enamoured with the big zipline.

The proximity of the play areas for older and younger kids was another standout feature for Chan.

“I will come here again. It’s just easy for me to watch (my two daughters),” she said.

Employee accuses city of sexual discrimination, harassment VIKKI HUI Vhui@Richmond-News.com

A City of Richmond employee has accused management of paying her less than men, sexual harassment and mocking her mental health.

The woman, a long-term unionized employee who is not being named, is taking the city to a B.C. Human Rights Tribunal.

The city claims it investigated the woman’s claims in full and tried to block her case proceeding.

However, in a recent published decision, the tribunal has struck down the attempt and the matter will proceed.

According to the decision, the employee also claimed she was either not supported in her attempts to raise the issue, or even “actively discouraged or penalized” in some instances.

The city objected to the employee’s complaint, claiming WorkSafeBC already dealt with it “appropriately,” most of the complaints were filed late and the employee’s complaint had no “reasonable prospect” of succeeding.

The employee’s allegations span three years from 2015 to 2018 and include eight instances of discrimination. These include being put in lower-paying positions where her male coworkers made at least $3 more than her per hour, hearing sexist comments such as “a guy

would have done that work faster,” and having a superior attempt to touch her on the buttocks.

She also claimed a manager and a union representative had told her to “not f*** this up” when she complained about the pay discrepancy, and a co-worker pinned her against a truck and screamed at her after she told her manager the co-worker called someone “useless.”

Most recently, in late 2018, the woman had helped city workers with a traumatically injured man who later died and she was later diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).

According to the employee, a city manager in human resources called her while she was taking time off to tell her she should be back at work instead of “at home eating bonbons and watching re-runs of I Love Lucy.”

“The common thread running through all of (the employee’s) allegations is a poisoned work environment connected to her gender as a woman,” reads the tribunal decision.

The City of Richmond, on the other hand, said it had hired an independent investigator to look into the allegations in 2019, who found discrepancies in the employee’s allegations and decided her claims were unfounded or had overwhelming evidence to the contrary.

The common thread running through all of (the) allegations is a poisoned work environment.

TRIBUNAL MEMBER The investigator also preferred the human resources manager’s side of the story, who claimed the employee had misunderstood the call and the employee was the one who made the disparaging comment about eating bonbons.

The employee had tried to apply for compensation through WorkSafeBC in January 2019, claiming she developed a mental disorder related to workplace bullying and harassment, but it was rejected because her claims were made after the one-year time limit. WorkSafeBC also said the human resources manager’s comment did not amount to “threatening or abusive” conduct.

Employee has no prospect of winning: City of Richmond In a decision issued last week, the B.C. Hu-

man Rights Tribunal concluded the employee’s complaint has not been dealt with appropriately despite having been rejected by WorkSafeBC, since the tribunal assesses time limits in a different manner.

WorkSafeBC also only dealt with one out of the employee’s eight allegations and did not decide whether it was discriminatory.

“The issue of whether the (City of Richmond) discriminated against (the employee) based on sex and mental disability, in relation to her eight allegations, has not been decided in another proceeding,” reads the decision.

The tribunal also concluded the employee’s complaints were timely, her allegations had a common theme of sexual discrimination and the allegations were “sufficiently repetitive and frequent in nature.”

Although the City of Richmond claimed the employee had no “reasonable prospect” of succeeding, the tribunal thinks a hearing is necessary to resolve the conflicting versions of events given by both sides.

It’s also inefficient, wrote the tribunal, to pick apart the employee’s allegations and dismiss some of them when she’s alleging a “pattern of discrimination” and individual events need to be considered together in context.

The employee will be allowed to proceed with her complaint.

Park drinking nixed, for now

BY MARIA RANTANEN mrantanen@richmond-news.com

A proposal for a pilot program allowing drinking in five Richmond parks was voted down on Monday by the majority of city council.

But the item is expected to be back on city council’s agenda next week.

At Monday’s committee meeting, two city councillors, Bill McNulty and Chak Au, spoke adamantly against drinking in parks, while some others wanted to limit the program.

City staff, directed by city council, had proposed allowing alcohol consumption in Garry Point Park, Minoru Park — in the Minoru Lakes area — Aberdeen Park, King George/Cambie Community Park and McLean Neighbourhood Park.

McNulty said he hasn’t had anyone approach him asking for alcohol to be consumed in parks, while Coun. Kash Heed, who initiated the idea, said drinking is already happening in parks.

At the meeting, Richmond’s medical health officer, Dr. Meena Dawar, disccouraged city council from going ahead with pilot, saying it would further normalize alcohol consumption, especially among youth and children.

It was recommended there be a 10-metre buffer between designated drinking areas and areas where youth and children normally congegrate such as ball diamonds, playgrounds and spray parks to “minimize the risk of adverse role-modelling.”

The province allowed municipalities, starting in June 2021, to allow drinking in parks. Several Lower Mainland cities such as Vancouver, New Westminster and North Vancouver, changed their bylaws to allow some drinking in parks.

Mayor Malcolm Brodie told city council he’s spoken to some mayors in the Lower Mainland on the topic and there have been no issues.

“They relate they have had no problems with it — none,” Brodie said.

However, he said he didn’t want Garry Point Park and Minoru Park to be included in the pilot program. Amendments to take out these two parks, however, failed, and, in the end, the majority voted against the pilot project.

Voting against the motion were Brodie, as well as Couns. McNulty, Au, Andy Hobbs and Michael Wolfe.

The pilot would have run from July to September.

‘Intrusion’ into city’s email system MARIA RANTANEN

mrantanen@richmond-news.com

The City of Richmond is warning the public of unsolicited emails they might receive after what appeared to be an external “intrusion” into its email system.

About half a dozen residents received strange, phishing emails mimicking city emails and information in them. The city has hired a cyber-security company to tackle the issue.

“We were able to lock it down quickly,” said city spokesperson Clay Adams.

It doesn’t appear, however, the intrusion went further than the email system, and no one’s financial information should be compromised, he added.

The emails appear to be an attempt to install malware onto people’s computers.

Martin van den Hemel received one of these emails, referring to a ride-hailing business he used to work for. The email appeared to be from a city employee who left the city two years ago.

It contained very specific information about tickets issues to ride-hailing drivers and how they could be resolved — information was supposedly in an attachment. van den Hemel noticed it wasn’t an actual city email.

Any email from the city will be from a “@richmond.ca” email, Adams explained. The city is warning people not to click on any links or download files from any emails that appear to be from the city but aren’t from a @richmond.ca address.

The city has also contacted the RCMP and the privacy commissioner on the issue.

Woman attacked by man with knife ALAN CAMPBELL acampbell@richmond-news.com

Police are asking the public for help after a woman was subjected to a terrifying knife attack in south Richmond.

Richmond RCMP said the woman got off a bus at around 11:30 p.m. on Wednesday, June 7 close to Williams and Seacote roads.

However, just before midnight, as she walked north on Seacote at its intersection with King Road a man brandishing a knife grabbed her from behind.

According to the victim, a struggle ensued and the two ended up on the ground.

Police said, thankfully, a driver who witnessed the interaction stopped to see if everything was all right.

And when the driver got out of his vehicle and called out, the suspect left the area on foot.

Physically uninjured, the woman then walked to her home and reported the incident to Richmond RCMP. Police say officers, including dog handlers, searched the area but were unable to find the suspect.

He is described as an Asian male of medium build, about 5’7 to 5’9 and be-

He was wearing an orange or red long-sleeved shirt or jacket, grey jogging pants with a black stripe and white writing, a black baseball cap and a lightcoloured medical mask and black runners.

He was also understood to be carrying what appears to be a large, rectangular paper bag.

“We want to assure the public that we are working tirelessly to identify and arrest this suspect but we need the com-

munity’s assistance,” said Richmond RCMP’s Insp. Michael Cohee. “We ask anyone who may have witnessed the events leading up to or after the assault or lives in the area and has video surveillance installed to call us.”

Police say they are canvassing the following area for video surveillance: Williams Road to Kingsbridge Road, No. 5 Road to Shell Road.

Anyone who may have seen the suspect in the area or has video surveillance equipment installed is asked to contact Richmond RCMP and quote file number 2023-17348.

Should you wish to remain anonymous, please contact Crimestoppers by phone at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477) or visit them online at www.solvecrime.ca.

“We recognize assaults like this can create concern amongst the public and have increased patrols in the area,” added Cpl. Adriana O’Malley, Richmond RCMP media relations officer.

“Some general safety tips we would recommend include walking in well lit areas, be aware of your surroundings, and if you are suddenly confronted run away, yell or do what you can to attract attention.”

Woman hit by car at Costco gets almost $1M compensation VIKKI HUI Vhui@Richmond-News.com

A woman has been awarded almost $1 million after getting hit by a car in the Richmond Costco parking lot.

Parminder Kaur Sunner, 50, was walking through the parking lot in 2017 when she got hit by Myung Ju Lee’s car.

Sunner recalled landing on the hood of the car and hitting her head near her ear.

She felt a headache and pain on her side, and she experienced pain all over her body and suffered “excruciating headaches” after the accident.

She told the court she has not been able to work since the accident and has had to undergo a variety of treatments, especially to alleviate the “intolerable” and “non-stop” pain in her leg.

“There is little question that the injuries that Ms. Sunner incurred as a result of the accident have had a profound and longstanding effect on her quality of life,” said B.C. Supreme Court Justice Matthew Taylor in his written decision.

At the time of the accident, Sunner was working full-time as a medical imaging booking clerk and was doing freelance esthetician work for friends and family.

She also worked as a medical office assistant and a makeup consultant prior to the accident.

Sunner was described as “the life of the party” who exercised almost daily, hosted dinner parties for big groups of friends and there was no evidence she had mental health issues.

“After the accident, Ms. Sunner’s life changed completely,” Taylor wrote.

Sunner told the court she no longer engages in recreation of any kind and the impact on her mental health has been “substantial.”

Defence questioned Sunner’s credibility, pointing out that her testimony about the accident, her employment and income and her hospitalization were inconsistent.

Although Taylor acknowledged the issues showed Sunner had the ability to “exaggerate and stretch the truth when it suits her interests,” he decided Sunner is still credible because her physical and psychological injuries have impacted her memory and recollection.

The provincial government has launched the BC Demographic Survey — aimed at helping identify and eliminate systemic racism in government programs.

Richmond MLA Henry Yao, citizens’ services minister Lisa Beare, attorney general Niki Sharma and representatives from the Anti-Racism Data Committee made the announcement at the Chinatown Storytelling Centre in Vancouver, where they encouraged every resident in the province to participate before the deadline on Sept. 29.

“It’s unfortunate that racism is embedded in our society,” said Yao. “We are working through by first collecting data, understanding the challenges and how we can improve…and as government how we can address our gaps and barriers in our services to ensure all British Columbians are welcomed, supported appropriately in an equitable manner.”

Fill out the survey at Antiracism.gov.bc.ca/bcdemographic.

He added Sunner was “generally consistent and coherent” when testifying about her injuries and their impact on her life, and there was “an abundance of expert evidence” showing the serious nature of the injuries and symptoms.

Judge Taylor ultimately decided to award Sunner a total of $1,208,467 in non-pecuniary damages (compensation for her pain, suffering, loss of enjoyment of life and loss of amenities), loss of her past earning capacity, loss of her future earnings, her future care costs and loss of housekeeping capacity.

However, he decided to discount the amount by 25 per cent to account for Sunner’s pre-existing back condition and her failure to take “proactive steps” to treat her symptoms, exercise and rehabilitate herself.

Tearful meeting on dike after jogger collapses, dies ALAN CAMPBELL Acampbell@Richmond-news.com

They hugged, they cried and talked for about 45 minutes after meeting up at the scene of a recent tragic incident on the West Dyke Trail in Richmond.

After being connected by the Richmond News, the Hori family met for an emotional get together with the wife and daughter of a man who collapsed and died on the trail near Terra Nova almost two weeks ago.

They met at the spot where the man, who was out running, collapsed backwards and hit his head.

Kris Hori and a driver passing by — who knew first aid — tried in vain to save the man. Kris was understandably upset by the experience and was frustrated that he couldn’t help more.

However, Kris and his mother Kathy were able on Sunday to show the man’s family where he collapsed on the dike and talked about his final moments.

“They wanted to thank us for bringing closure to their tragic loss of their dear husband and father,” said Kathy.

“They did not have any details of the incident and where exactly it happened. They were so grateful to Kris for being there for the last minutes of (the man’s) life.

“They are such sweet people my heart broke talking to them. We told them that we want them to keep in touch.”

Kathy added that the meeting brought some closure to the man’s family and that of her son, Kris, who was still too upset about the incident to talk publicly.

She said the man’s family is hoping to put a memorial or a bench at the spot where he died on dike.

The man’s daughter, who didn’t want to make her name public just yet, told the News that she was moved when reading our story last week about how Kris “took care of my dad.”

“I just wanted to thank him for helping my dad…”

After the tragedy on Wednesday, June 7, Kathy said Kris vowed to get first aid training and she urged everyone out there who doesn’t have it to take a course as soon as possible.

Joyful Giving

Gulf & Fraser Powers the Possible in Richmond Health Care From left to right: Natalie Meixner, President & CEO, Richmond Hospital Foundation; Jeff Shewfelt. Co-CEO, Gulf & Fraser; Alvin Chow, Publisher, Richmond News & Vice President, National Advertising, Glacier Media Group

F

or more than 80 years, community-based credit union, Gulf & Fraser, has invested in what it values most: its members, employees, and communities.

Originally founded by a small group of commercial fishermen, Gulf & Fraser is now 71,000 members strong with $5 billion in assets, and on a mission to build brighter futures for all. This includes Richmond, home to the second and third Gulf & Fraser branches established some 40 plus years ago in Steveston and Central Richmond.

Over the years, the two Gulf & Fraser branches in Richmond became an important part of the local community, financing construction for townhomes and single-family dwellings. As Gulf & Fraser Co-Chief Executive Officer, Jeff Shewfelt, explains, “The growth of the Richmond community led to Gulf & Fraser’s growth, which in turn allowed us to play an even bigger part in our community by giving back.”

How can you and your company get involved in improving health care in the community?

And they’ve given back in spades. Gulf & Fraser has supported Richmond Hospital Foundation for more than 30 years, including donating towards the new Yurkovich Family Pavilion and the In-Patient Mental Health Unit. Most recently, Gulf & Fraser became the Presenting Sponsor for the foundation’s annual golf tournament.

Take an active role in supporting Richmond Hospital by contacting Richmond Hospital Foundation for information on the various giving and sponsorship opportunities.

Long-time Richmond resident, Shewfelt recognizes the importance of supporting local health care. “We have a growing community and it is important to make the necessary investments in health care for a strong and healthy Richmond. When our community is strong and healthy, that’s when we all thrive.”

“Your health goes hand in hand with financial wellbeing,” shares Shewfelt. “When you are in good health and enjoying financial wellbeing, the possibilities to achieve what you desire are endless.”

Supporting Richmond Hospital Foundation aligns with Gulf & Fraser’s tagline: ‘Power Your Possible’, which speaks to the company’s goal to ignite the potential of its members in achieving their hopes and dreams.

Gulf & Fraser is enabling brighter futures for Richmond through its philanthropic leadership and positive impact on local health care.

Shewfelt adds, “Our hope is to ensure we do our part so that the people of Richmond won’t have to worry about health care services – it’ll be there for them if and when they need it.”

Youth soccer Wigs for Kids charity hosting cutathon, taco-eating contest clubs merge ALAN CAMPBELL acampbell@richmond-news.com

ALAN CAMPBELL acampbell@richmond-news.com

An historical vote took place last week which will transform the youth soccer landscape in Richmond.

At their respective AGMs, both Richmond FC and Richmond United voted to merge into one youth soccer organization.

A merger committee was formed between the two clubs earlier this year to begin the process of combining the long-established organizations.

The move was understood to be supported by key stakeholders, such as Canada Soccer, BC Soccer and the City of Richmond.

For decades Richmond FC was the recognized community soccer club for boys, while Richmond United catered more for girls soccer.

However, in recent years, both clubs have ventured into providing soccer platforms for both sexes, leading to what some believed was an inevitable merger.

The merger mirrors that of the youth hockey community in 2017 in Richmond, where two competing clubs, Seafair and Richmond Minor agreed to set aside differences and become one for the betterment of the players.

A double-header of fundraisers is coming up this weekend for the Stevestonbased charity Wigs for Kids BC. The Steveston Wigs for Kids BC Weekend, sponsored by The Dinnell Real Estate Group, kicks off Saturday, June 24, with a cutathon at Collective Beauty on Moncton Street in Steveston.

Six stylists and Barber Gotti will be cutting hair from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. with cuts costing $100 but will be free if you collect a minimum $100 in pledges.

Other treatments are available. Book an appointment at 604-370-0276.

And on Sunday, June 26, it’s the return

of the third annual Taco Eating Contest at Little Mexico Cantina on Chatham Street.

From 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. six contestants will be stuffing their faces with as many tacos as possible in a bid to grab the title.

VIP tickets are still available for patio and inside dining at $50 each and include a beer or margarita and two tacos.

As well as the two big events on the weekend: Steveston artist Marion Whiting will be doing quick sketches outside of Harmony Dental on Moncton Street on Saturday; A Monkey Tree on Moncton Street is raffling off a beautiful butterfly bench until after the July long weekend and

Sinfully the Best on No. 1 Road will be making and selling Wigs for Kids cookies all weekend; Steveston Bakery, also on No. 1 Road, will be selling a Wigs for Kids muffin all weekend; The Steveston Seafood House on Moncton Street will donate two per cent of all sales for the month of June. If you say you are supporting Wigs for Kids, it will be four per cent.

Wigs for Kids — which raises funds to help families of children fighting cancer and other life-threatening conditions — recently raised more than $65,000 from its silent auction.

Steveston Block Party returns in the summer

Live music, sports teams and community organizations are some of what people can expect at this year’s Steveston Block Party.

Steveston Sound and Stage is hosting its second annual block party from 12 to

4 p.m. on Aug. 12 at Lord Byng elementary.

There will be live bands on a stage as well as an on-site caricature artist.

Alex Sagert with Steveston Sound and Stage said the block party is for families

to meet and have fun at the same time.

“I remember Steveston when I grew up was more close-knit, so now we’ve got a lot of new residents that have moved in over the years, it’s a great way to get everyone out to meet,” said Sagert.
