WHEN PRIVATE PROPERTY RIGHTS AND PUBLIC CONCERNS COLLIDE

A HAZARD?

City council is grappling with how to deal with a property at 509 11th St. that’s raised concerns about its appearance and safety. The city has laid out steps the property owner must take to address safety concerns. PHOTO JENNIFER GAUTHIER

New West tackles ‘horror show’ house New Westminster city council is sensitive to the needs of a property owner and a “night watchman” living in a Brow of the Hill home, but is deeply concerned about health and safety issues related to the house. City officials have identified numerous health and safety issues

related to the outside and inside of the house at 509 11th St.The city states there is no furnace in the house and scaffolding has surrounded it for years.There is also stagnant water in the basement, black mould in the wood framing in the basement, broken windows, a collapsing ceiling in the hallway on the main floor and openings in the house that allow “raccoons and other vermin” to get inside. “Staff are asking council to im-

believes the property in question meets both of those criteria.” Christy Meriegh, manager of building inspections, said city officials have had limited access to the interior of the house but believe the house is in very poor condition and is in violation of the B.C. Building Code. “The building contains multiple hazardous conditions making it unsafe for occupancy,” he said. “The hazardous conditions may

Up Front CHECK IT OUT ON DEC. 2

That thing you need. It might be here The NewWest Thingery is kind of like a tool library, but it aims to offer much more than just tools By Cayley Dobie

cdobie@newwestrecord.ca

Always wanted to take up woodworking but can’t justify the expense of buying a table saw? Or maybe you’re looking to start skiing again but don’t want to buy your skis? That’s where the New West Thingery comes in. It is a lending library of sorts that allows members to borrow a variety of items, including sports equipment, power tools, household appliances, kids’ toys and much more. Founded by Chris Diplock, one of the co-founders of the Vancouver tool library, the goal of the New West Thingery is to remove the barriers that stop a lot of people from pursuing certain – often expensive – hobbies. “The Thingery kind of grew out of the tool library movement,” he told the Record. “The Thingery expands on that in that you can basically borrow or lend any type of equipment, including things like recreation equipment.” The idea is to stock the New West Thingery with donations from people in the community, which would allow people to clear out their homes of items they don’t use often enough, Diplock added.

Let’s say you wanted to power wash your house, but you’re not going to do it every day, so why buy one only to have it sit in your garage, Diplock explained. Instead, by joining the Thingery, you could have access to a power washer when you needed it without forking over a fortune. There is, however, a cost to being a member of the Thingery community. People will need to buy a membership, which includes a $50 lifetime membership fee and a subsequent annual fee of $29. Memberships are available to anyone 18 years or older. There will also be a borrowing fee. “A lot of the equipment that we’ll be lending out has a high upfront cost and ongoing maintenance and upkeep that’s required,” Diplock said. While he expects the bulk of the items will be donated, Diplock said there will likely be some items on the Thingery’s wish list that Diplock will have to purchase.The membership fees will cover these anticipated costs and will help pay for any repairs or maintenance the items might need over time. But, on the other hand, some items won’t cost any-

thing to borrow, he added. On Saturday, Dec. 2, Diplock is inviting the community to stop by the New West Thingery, located outside River Market at 810 Quayside Dr., between

THE CHANGING CITY

City seeks to build more diverse committees Advocate for a new mandate says it’s not going to happen overnight, but it will have a ‘transformative power’ By Theresa McManus

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

The City of New Westminster is aiming to make its advisory committees more reflective of the city’s diverse population. New West resident Gurveen Dhaliwal met with Mayor Jonathan Cote and Coun. Mary Trentadue to discuss the idea of implementing a diversity mandate for the city’s advisory committees. Dhaliwal said there’s a clear lack of diversity on city committees, advisory boards and task forces, and the advisory groups need to have a broader diversity, including Indigenous people, people of colour, people with disabilities and individuals in the LGBTQ community. In addition to addressing a “very prob-

lematic” situation on city committees, Dhaliwal said a diversity mandate has a “transformative power” and could lead to positive impacts on other organizations, clubs and community groups in the city. “It is pretty powerful,” she told council Monday night. At Monday’s meeting, council approved a motion to direct staff to research, review and report back on best practices regarding embedding a diversity mandate into the city’s current committee programs and policies. “I think it’s important to recognize that it’s not going to happen overnight. It might not even happen within a year or two,” Dhaliwal said. “In introducing a mandate, I feel it’s important to note that it needs to

There seems to be a startling difference between the community at large and city committees

be done in parallel, and as a complementary strategy, to actually engaging with the many diverse community organizations that we do have in the community, and to reach out through other methods throughout the year and really recruit through the engagement.”

New West resident Nadine Nakagawa, who has served on several city committees, voiced her support for the plan. “Something that has always stood out to me is that the committees that I go to, that I see, don’t represent the community that I see when I walk around the neighbourhood, when I take transit,” she said. “There seems to be a startling difference between the community at large and city committees.” That’s something that really hit home for Nakagawa, when attending one of the city’s civic dinners for volunteers. “I was a member of the multiculturalism advisory committee at the time. At that civic dinner, the committees were asked to stand Continued on page 5

City Suspect arrested for rash of purse snatchings Cayley Dobie

cdobie@newwestrecord.ca

A suspected prolific purse-snatcher is behind bars thanks to an alert employee at River Market. In August, police were notified about a number of stolen backpacks and purses taken from public areas around NewWestminster. Most of the incidents happened in the middle of the day, police reported. Investigators believe the thefts happened when people would put their bags down behind them or leave a bag unattended for a moment or two.When the victims weren’t looking, the

suspect would swoop in and take the items without anyone noticing, according to a press release from the New Westminster Police Department. Police also allege the suspect used the victims’ credit cards after taking the bags. “It is always troubling when there is a series of offences, especially when the offences are done in broad daylight and in public spaces,” said police spokesperson Sgt. Jeff Scott in the release. The department banded together, and investigators from patrol, the criminal intelligence unit, crime suppression team and the fo-

rensic identification section were assigned to the case. Nearly three months later, on Oct. 3, officers arrestedWilliam Raymond Banks after he was spotted by an employee at River Market. “Solving crime often includes the assistance of the public, so we want to thank the community for their help in solving this series of alleged offences,” Scott said. Banks, 36, fromVancouver, is charged with nine counts of theft; six counts of fraud; two counts of breach of conditions; and one count of possession of a stolen credit card. Banks is scheduled to appear in court Dec. 6.

City works to encourage diversity Continued from page 3 up and be acknowledged, which is a really nice practice.When the multiculturalism advisory committee stood up, it seemed to me that all the people of colour in the room stood up. That was quite a stark visual image, with the fact that I think cultural diversity is very much siloed on that committee and isn’t represented on the other committees,” she said. “I think this is a big problem.” Nakagawa believes the city’s motion is “a really good first step” toward addressing this problem. “I think that having those diverse perspectives embedded in all the committees will make the community stronger,” she said. “I also think that it will enhance leadership in different areas of our very diverse community and allow for people to be more broadly repre-

sented in the social agenda and the social policies of the city.” Trentadue said New Westminster is a highly diverse community, noting students at Lord Kelvin Elementary School speak 54 different languages. “To have a diversity mandate that affects our committees, and possibly move it internally into our other city policies as well, would go a long way to making sure that we are attracting and welcoming all of the

people in our community and finding out what their needs are and their opinions are on the work that we do,” she said. Trentadue said the city’s standard advertising practices aren’t getting the word out to everyone, so the city will have to determine how it can break into some communities that aren’t aware of the city’s committee structure and how they can get involved.

To get ready, our current online system will no longer be available to the public starting December 1st. Stay tuned for more details about our new registration and booking system and what it means for you. newwestcity.ca/activeliving.

Opinion OUR VIEW

Kudos for those who speak truth to power There are a couple of ways to view New Westminster’s decision to look into the possibility of creating a diversity mandate for city committees (see story page 3). One could ask why the heck this hasn’t been done earlier. After all, it is 2017, and diversity and fair representation and affirmative action are not new concepts. And then there’s

the other way of looking at council’s decision: it is a heartfelt, powerful move to really change the way politics are built from the ground up in this city. We prefer the second way of looking at the decision. Gurveen Dhaliwal deserves huge kudos for not only bringing the subject up but for advocating for a diversity mandate for the

city’s advisory committees. It’s not easy to speak truth to power, even if that power is as welcoming as Mayor Jonathan Cote. And then there’s Nadine Nakagawa, who tells us that when she was attending one of the city’s civic dinners for volunteers as a member of the multicultural committee: “...the committees were asked to stand up and be

acknowledged, which is a really nice practice.When the multicultural advisory committee stood up, it seemed to me that all the people of colour in the room stood up.” She said it was a stark display of how people of colour were “siloed.” She’s absolutely right, and, again, she also deserves kudos for speaking out. So now it’s up to city

staff to pull together a plan and policies for how to broaden the city’s tent and make the city a much more representative community. It’s not an easy task. There’s a reason academics call it “institutionalized racism and sexism.” Political and justice systems have evolved over decades, if not centuries, to keep the white guys at the

top. And too often diversity mandates end up merely increasing token appointments meant to look like real change. We hope city council’s directive doesn’t just turn into “window dressing” but actually helps redesign the whole house. Everybody will benefit from a city hall that truly reflects this city’s diversity.

MY VIEW KRIS HAMAGUCHI

May Day is a proud tradition

I am currently living in Asia but spent the first 24 years of my life as a proud resident of New Westminster and return there regularly to visit my parents. Over the past few weeks, social media has been inundated with concern over the future of May Day celebrations. I believe having the event take place at Queen’s Park does a much better job of celebrating the history and the City of New Westminster. It is an opportunity for all the children of New Westminster to really see that they are part of a community, as they all come together to celebrate. I am a teacher, and I firmly believe that if May Day was left to individual schools to celebrate, we would quickly see the tradition deteriorate as other priorities would take place. Also, my guess is that most of the teachers in New West are not from there, so they may not see the significance in May Day that longtime residents do. Making this a mandatory event in which all the school children of the city come together will ensure that the history of New Westminster is not forgotten. I participated in May Day celebrations throughout my years of public school in New West. I remember it being very, very exciting to earn the honour of performing before such a massive audience in both grades 3 and 4. I was not the kind of person who would have ever been May Queen, but I got to shine as a member of the team of male and female

dancers. If an outside entity took responsibility for May Day celebrations, I am convinced that there are very few children who would end up participating as families would say they are too busy to support their children, and those who would simply not see the importance in exposing their children to the opportunity. And in this day and age of technology, I’m sure a lot of children would opt to go home and play on their iPad before heading to a rehearsal to dance around the maypole. Now, please tell me what the best choice would be for children – gluing themselves to a screen or experiencing the beauty and mental stimulation of music, physical activity, collaboration, team-type spirit, camaraderie and self-pride in their accomplishment when they get out on that field and perform for an audience of their peers and other community members? I work at an international school in the Philippines and have travelled to almost every country in Southeast Asia. Here, every Asian culture has such incredible national pride, which is highly visible through dance, costumes, food and other cultural traditions that they actively celebrate and cherish. Canada is such a young country that is lacking in such traditions.Taking May Day away from New Westminster would deteriorate the city/province that much more in this respect. And as for the question on the Google survey regarding the Continued on page 7

Visa scammer nabbed When a computer business on 12th Street got three orders for computers, all from the same person, all paid for over the phone with a credit card, staff got suspicious. They called police who checked with Visa.The card had not been reported stolen, so they contacted the card owner. He hadn’t bought any computers. Police set up a sting, sending two plainclothes officers to be at the store when the fraudster came to pick up the computers. He was arrested on the spot. Investigators found out the Visa information had likely come from a Surrey gas station, either from the garbage or from an employee.

Letters Time change has to go Dear Editor: I note with approval your ‘Our View: It’s way past time to ditch this routine’ (the Record, Nov. 16). The one caveat I would propose is that if we ditch time changes bi-annually, we stay on daylight saving time. To me the “extra” light at 7 a.m. is wasted, plus I note that over the years, the months on DST are increasing while standard time months are decreasing, so DST must be more popular. Any other so-called advantages of altering the time are, as you point out, offset by increased accidents and less productivity, etc., etc. I know that, scientifically, standard time is “correct,” something about the sun reaching its highest point at noon, but that will happen regardless of what we do with our timepieces, so yes, let’s get it over with and go on DST all year. Colin Dover, New Westminster

Save the city’s traditions Continued from page 6 clothing that the May Queen suite wears, I can guarantee that you don’t see Japanese and Korean girls trading in their kimono or hanbok for jeans and a T-shirt, or anything else for that matter. It is a visible representation of their heritage that they wear with pride. As for the inclusiveness of the event, the decision was made several years ago to include boys in the May Queen suite.This was definitely a step in the right direction.

Voting for a representative is a part of life and, although there is the possibility that it ends up being more of a popularity contest, I also believe that a lot can be done to change that as long as the expectations for those running for the title are made clear and, possibly, revised. Finally, I understand that teaching time is taken up by this event, however, it should be made a formal part of the curriculum. B.C. has recently made a change in their K-12 curriculum to make the learning more authentic and meaningful for students. May Day absolutely provides a valid, authentic purpose for learning. Furthermore, the history of May Day should also be acknowledged and studied more in-depth in the schools.This could be done through the study of traditions, with May Day being one of many possible examples. Children could be reaching out to the community to interview people about the history of the city. It certainly does not have to be an “add-on,” but rather a focal point of student learning. It would be a real crime to steal away or diminish the value of May Day in New Westminster. I hope the powers that be will listen to the voices that have the courage to speak up, as they represent a huge population who don’t have the guts or the time to put pen to paper and share their view. Kris Hamaguchi (née Gillis) is a former NewWestminster resident.

Taxi licence decision was ‘bizarre’: council Theresa McManus

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

If you’ve got an issue with the number of accessible taxis in NewWestminster, take it up with the province. City council recently supported amendments to the commercial vehicle bylaw that would allow Royal City Taxi Ltd. to add eight new taxis to its fleet. Royal City Taxi applied to operate 15 new vehicles – 11 accessible taxis and four conventional taxis – but only received approval from the Passenger Transportation Branch to operate eight new vehicles, said Kim Deighton, the city’s manager of licensing and integrated services “They were given approval for six conventional and two wheelchair-accessible, making a total of eight,” she said. That didn’t sit well with Coun. Patrick Johnstone. “I have a problem with them asking for a large number of accessible taxis and only being given two,” he said. “That doesn’t make any sense to me. I can’t find any rationale why they would approve fewer accessible taxis than a company actually want to provide to the city. I think it speaks to a larger failure of the Passenger Transportation Branch to actually fair-

ly assess what our needs are as far as taxi services. I am in favour of this application. I don’t think we are approving enough taxis to provide the needs for the city.” While the new taxis are “a good step in the right direction,” Johnstone said the city is still facing inadequate taxi service because of the provincial board that approves these licences. Coun. Jaimie McEvoy said it’s strange a taxi company is willing to spend more money to provide accessible vehicles but is being told it can’t provide that level of service. “It’s such a bureaucracy,” he said. “It’s just bizarre. It’s an important service.” A staff report states that in order to operate a taxi, an operator must first obtain a

licence from B.C.’s Passenger Transportation Board. “When considering an application for a taxi licence, the PTB considers factors such as the applicant’s background, the need for additional taxi service, and economic impacts on existing taxis. PTB licences specify the type of vehicle to be used (i.e. wheelchair accessible or sedan) and the area to be served,” said a staff report.

Quayside mail thief gets jail time, probation Cornelia Naylor

cnaylor@newwestrecord.ca

A “chronic prolific offender” who pried open three mailboxes and stole mail from a Quayside apartment building ran out of chances in B.C. provincial court last month. On Oct. 3, Darren Patrick Graham, 38, pleaded guilty to four different property offences, including a break-in at 2 Renaissance Sq. in New West where he was caught on video at 3 a.m. on Nov. 24, 2016 prying open three mailboxes

and stealing mail. Over the past 19 years, Graham, who is addicted to crystal methamphetamine, has had 100 convictions, for property and drug crimes and a number of assaults, according to court documents. “I have had the accused before me since his arrival in Vancouver,” stated provincial court judge Thomas Gove in his reasons for sentence Oct. 3. “In sentencing him, I have sent him to recovery programs and to jail. He has been, up until now, on the Downtown Commu-

nity Court Case Management Team where he has had significant resources available to him to address his housing, mental health, and addiction.” Graham’s lawyer argued he should be given timeand-a-half credit for the 92 days he had already spent in custody and released on a conditional sentence order. But Gove ruled the time

had come to put more emphasis on the protection of the public. “The court accepts that his drug addiction is a medical issue and will not likely be successfully addressed in the criminal justice system or by the court,” stated Gove. “… All the court can do for the accused is to push or coerce him into programs that he may ac-

cept and to receive help. This has been done for almost 20 years.The court also must look to the protection of the public – the protection of the community from criminal conduct. Once an offender’s record gets to what the accused’s now is, over 100 convictions, although his rehabilitation remains a goal, an important goal, more em-

phasis must be put on the protection of the public.” After giving Graham time-and-a-half credit for 92 days served, he sentenced him to another seven-and-a-half months in jail and one year of probation. Among his probation orders is an order to stay away from 2 Renaissance Sq.

City CITY COUNCIL DEBATES PROBLEM HOME

‘You are not concerned about my health, my safety’ Continued from page 1 untruths. He said the home doesn’t have any broken pipes or black mould, alleged the water in the house is coming from a neighbour’s property and insisted the scaffolding is safe. “I don’t feel that there is any hazard with what I am doing,” he said. “I was just up there today doing some work. I will be up there tomorrow and the next day and continue on with what I am doing. I hope you consider this very carefully because it’s affecting my night watchman who is living there. He doesn’t have anywhere else to go right now.” A “night watchman,” who has lived in the house for seven years and does not pay rent, sat in the gallery at council chambers, yelling out comments during the discussion that lasted for nearly two hours. “You are not concerned about my health, my safety,” he shouted. “You are try-

ing to take my place of residence away, where I live in.You are not concerned about my safety. It’s just lies.” Mayor Jonathan Cote is concerned about Bell’s ability and willingness to rectify the issue. He said he’s also

don’t exist in homes in the city. He said the scaffolding is “problematic” and the house is without a furnace. “The last thing I would want to see happen is that your night watchperson dies in a fire caused by an electric heater,” he said. Harper said the issues with the house have gone on for a long time and need to be resolved. Bell said financial issues and time restraints have impacted his ability to get the work done quicker, but he’s working on the property every day. “The issues are minor,” he said. “They can be dealt with.” Coun. Mary Trentadue said she isn’t hopeful much will change with the property in 60 days and stressed the city needs to make sure the property is safe. “I don’t want to be the councillor at the table when something happens because we did nothing,” she said. “I

What are the problems? On Monday, council received a staff report and a presentation outlining the various health and safety concerns about the house at 509 11th St. These include: !

The wood framing in the basement is exposed to excessive moisture and is infested with black mould. ! The basement and the main floor of the house have

What does the city plan to do to address the problem home? Here’s what the city decided to do to address the many problems it has found with the home at 509 11th St. " The city is giving the property owner 60 days to remove the scaffolding and graffiti on the garage.

" The city is giving the owner 60 days to apply for building permits to remediate or demolish the house. " The city is giving the owner 150 days to fulfill the remedial action requirements. Remedial

work that must be done to the house includes: repairing or replacing external drainage and the internal sanitary drainage system; repairing or replacing missing or deteriorated wood framing; repairing or replacing the

repairing the interior hallway ceiling on the main floor; removing the tarp from the top of the house; and replacing the roof. " Council also approved motions directing staff to work with the tenant and assist in relocat-

ing the tenant elsewhere if needed, and to work with social agencies to assist the occupant in relocating and to identify an outside agency to assist the owner.

have been a member of the arts council, I have sometimes wondered whether it would be 125 years before NewWestminster had its own arts centre,” arts council president Eileen Thompson is quoted in the paper. Thompson thanked the city for donating the $145,000 necessary for building the gallery – an 800-square-foot addition to the lodge in Queen’s Park. The space has since seen changes – recent upgrades include new lighting, new hardwood floors, and renovations to move office space out of the main-floor gallery and into the lower level. But the arts council has always been about far more than just its gallery space. “The purpose has always been to promote the arts in the community, to expose audiences to what we have at a local level,” O’Shea says. “There’s a pull toVancouver a lot of times for cultural consumption.This has always been about promoting the arts in NewWest.” The definition of “arts” has continued to evolve and expand over the years. For much of its lifetime, the arts council was helmed by Andrée St. Martin, the previous executive director, who served from 1987 until 2015 – overseeing a wide range of projects that included art rental programs, the Last Mondays at the Movies film series, concerts and an annual Christmas Treasure Room, among many others. O’Shea notes the arts council is constantly coming up with new programming to try to reach everyone in the city. “What we’ve tried to do is take the arts and reimagine it in the most creative way possible,” O’Shea says. “Not

Queen’s Park, O’Shea is also working to make sure that there are no limits on who gets to enjoy the art. The three- and four-yearolds at Queen’s Park Preschool, which is housed on the lower level of Centennial Lodge, come up regularly to the gallery to check out the shows and then draw their own art inspired by what they’ve seen. It’s just one small part of O’Shea’s desire to take away anything that would make the arts feel pretentious or intimidating, and instead make it welcoming for all. “Community art galleries are that safe space for people to experience the arts,” O’Shea says. “The gallery is always open to everyone, always free.” While its mission is to nurture the arts within New Westminster, the arts council also aims to help attract tourists to the city.

Arts & Entertainment Plaskett’s work featured at Queen’s Park gallery Julie MacLellan

jmaclellan@newwestrecord.ca

It seems only fitting that the 50th anniversary celebrations of the arts council should take place against a backdrop of the work of a New West luminary: Joseph Plaskett. Plaskett, born in 1918 in New Westminster, went on to international fame as

an artist based in Paris. He died in 2014 at the age of 96, after a career that included being named to the Order of Canada. The Plaskett exhibition – on now at the Gallery at Queen’s Park – was, in fact, a stroke of last-minute serendipity. After an artist cancelled an exhibition at the eleventh hour, O’Shea reached out to the

‘It’s all the people’ Continued from page 11 Events such as the New Westminster Cultural Crawl and NewWest Craft – especially the winter and summer night markets – have become a draw for out-oftowners. O’Shea is already eyeing even more expansion next year. “I’m already working on 2018,” O’Shea says. “2018 looks to be bigger, better, brighter and busier.We’re just super excited to keep bringing the arts to where people are at.” O’Shea is excited to be operating under the leadership of a city council that supports and encourages the arts as part of civic success – he notes that Mayor Jonathan Cote, at the city’s recent civic dinner, took the time to highlight the city’s many cultural successes, rather than simply focusing

on development. “It’s been thrilling for the arts council to be a part of council’s vision,” O’Shea says. What it all means, in the end, is that this weekend’s celebration gives the arts council a chance to celebrate the fact that it has spent five decades living up to its mission: to promote and celebrate the arts in NewWestminster. Everyone is welcome to take part in the celebration – something O’Shea notes is particularly important for the arts council and its president, Leanne Ewen. “It’s the belief that all of us are the arts council,” he says. “It’s not the board, it’s not me, it’s not this space, it’s all the people. It’s all of us together that make up the arts community. It’s all of us together that make up the arts council.”

New Westminster Public Library’s chief librarian, Julie Spurrell, to see if they could lend the arts council some of their collection of Plaskett’s work. The subject matter is views of New Westminster – “It seems all people from New Westminster, their favourite subject is New Westminster,” O’Shea laughs. O’Shea notes the art isn’t

new to local viewers. It’s on display at the library but not always in the foreground for library visitors; here at the gallery, though, it can be gathered in one exhibition and made a focal point of this celebration of arts in New Westminster. “The timing is just perfect with the 50th anniversary.To be able to highlight Joseph’s work is something

really special,” O’Shea says. The exhibition, which opened Nov. 1, is underway until Nov. 26. It will form the backdrop for arts council celebrations on that Sunday afternoon, when the annual general meeting will be followed by a reception and open house that’s open to everyone, from 2:30 to 5 p.m. Later in the week, the arts

council will host a special “secret” concert on Wednesday, Nov. 29 at 7:30 p.m. (Spoiler alert:We’re not telling you who’s performing in the concert, but it’s pretty easy to find out.The arts council’s website just might, in fact, have some information.)

Program seeks seniors in need

Caring Neighbours at Christmas program needs seniors to sponsor

Family Services of Greater Vancouver has been inundated with requests to help seniors at Christmas – and is searching for seniors in need. The local non-profit oversees the Caring Neighbours at Christmas program, which matches sponsors with local families and seniors in need. Family Services is looking for low-income, single seniors (and couples) who may be interested in being sponsored this Christmas. “We have dozens of people who have registered to sponsor a senior,” said community education and development services manager Pat Steiner in an email to the Record. “It’s challenging to connect to seniors, and we are turning to the community to help us connect with seniors who may not know about our program.” To make it as easy as possible for seniors to register, a neighbour or friend can liaise with Family Services regarding forms needed to be filled out as part of the application process. The Caring Neighbours at Christmas program is open to seniors aged 55 and up who live in New Westminster, have a phone number where they can be reached and aren’t registered with any other Christ-

Community CHRISTMAS SPIRIT

Heritage homes open doors for holiday tour

Tickets go fast for this popular NewWest event By Theresa McManus

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

Folks will be coming from far and wide to enjoy the holiday spirit at the fifth annual Homes for the Holidays tour. The Queen’s Park Healthcare Volunteer Society is giving people a chance to tour six heritage homes in the Queen’s Park and Brow of the Hill neighbourhoods that have been beautifully decorated for the holidays.The tour is on Sunday, Dec. 3 from 4:30 to 7:30 p.m. “People love it,” said Colleen McDonald, vicechair of Queen’s Park Healthcare Volunteer Society’s board of directors. “There’s a woman who comes from Portland. People come from Seattle.There’s a woman who comes from Edmonton. I even got an email from a woman wanting to know when the tour was so that she could book her holidays.” With only 350 tickets available, the tour usually sells out as fans of heritage and Christmas want to soak up the holiday atmosphere in beautiful heritage homes. “I think it’s just the fact that it sort of kicks off the Christmas season because it’s the first Sunday of December. It’s the magic of these beautiful homes decorated inside and out,” McDonald said. “They get ideas for decorating. So many of these houses, we

walk by them and we just want to get inside and see what they look like.” This year’s tour includes homes that have never been included on heritage tours in the city, as well as some old favourites decked out in their holiday finery. The Homes for the Holidays tour includes stops at the Captain W.H. Philpott

Not Rudolph: Everybody gets into the holiday spirit during the tour. PHOTO CONTRIBUTED

House (1905), the Robert Buckland House (1891), E-Dee-Nie – the Edmund J. Boughen House (1911), the Herbert Davidson House (1910) and the William Mercer House (1901). A sixth stop on the tour, the 1892 Hugh Galbraith House, is where folks can enjoy a glass of wine and shortbread, and shop for items from the Quintessential gift shop in Queen’s Park Care Centre. Christmas decorations and home décor, accessories such as capes, purses and scarves,

soaps and bath salts, stuffed animals and colouring books are among the items being sold at the Galbraith House. “We have lots of fun things for stocking stuffers,” McDonald said. “One I especially love is the spiky, rubber snowman head that lights up when you bounce him on the ground.” A pianist will be playing at one house on the tour, while harpists will be performing at another home. The Queen’s Park Healthcare Volunteer Society is raising funds for programs and events for people in care and attending day programs at Queen’s Park Health Care Centre. Funds go to a variety of initiatives at the facility, including new tablecloths for special events and Wi-Fi. “We cover the cost of concerts in care, which is a weekly event at the hospital.That is where professional musicians come in and entertain,” McDonald said. “We provide funds for Christmas gifts so nobody goes without a gift at Christmas time.” Tickets are $30 and available online at www. qphvs.org.You can also purchase tickets at Champagne Taste and Home Décor (1101 Royal Ave.), Benjamin Moore Royal City Colours (700 12th St.) and GardenWorks at Mandeville (4746 Marine Dr., Burnaby).

‘‘

What we hope to accomplish is a space where people come with curiosity and leave with inspiration. – Kristina Fiedrich

– and beyond into neighbourhoods and other facilities – are opportunities to attend programs that emulate the experience of foundation classes in university arts program,” said Fiedrich. “What we hope to accomplish is creating a space where people come with curiosity and leave with inspiration to continue making and living creative lives.” The same philosophy holds true on the heritage side. “New Westminster has a rich history and a vast cultural demographic that we want everyone to experience and to be able to take something positive away from that experience,”

‘‘

ifferent but complementary. Separate but together. Distinct but intertwined. When it comes to the arts and heritage in the City of New Westminster, there are countless ways in which these two unique aspects of life overlap. Though officially under their own unique banners, the City’s Arts Programmer Kristina Fiedrich and Heritage Programmer Lindsey Canning say their work often finds them collaborating thanks to their co-location in the City’s newest civic facility, Anvil Centre. “The two departments are quite different and have different mandates and program structures,” notes Fiedrich. “But more recently we have started to develop interdisciplinary programs. There are so many overlaps and potential for collaborative programs.” Canning agrees, and says that having a connected home base in Anvil Centre has allowed for new opportunities. “I think Kristina and I quickly realized that there were so many ways that arts and heritage could support each other, and it’s blossomed into a very natural collaboration. The way I see it, arts and heritage go hand in hand,” said Canning. Many artists are interested in local archival information, for example, and heritage programs can teach concepts through artistic endeavours. “Combining arts with heritage not only allows us to deliver to a wider audience but also makes history new City’s Arts Programmer Kristina and exciting Fiedrich and Heritage Programmer again,” Lindsey Canning Canning added. Through these departments the City offers a wide range of ways for citizens of all ages to interact with arts, culture, heritage and history – and both women say that’s a positive for the community and for individuals. And servicing such a diverse population means being careful to consider what’s out there, who is looking and what they’re looking for. “It really means gauging what the community wants, while not taking away audiences from local businesses, or offering programs that are similar to others already available,” said Fiedrich. “Our programs are tailored for people already engaged in creative pursuits, but also accessible enough to pique the interest of those who have never taken an art class,” she noted. That involves having a full roster of artists in the faculty, a diverse range of programs, and finding unique collaborations in the community. “What we are trying to create here at Anvil Centre

said Canning. “Our programs are designed to be fun and engaging and there is always something new to see, learn and participate in.” Anvil Centre features 18,000 square feet of dedicated event, conference and programming space, a 361-seat theatre, studios, meeting rooms and more; the centre is home to New Media Gallery, the City’s Museum and Archives and more. “People are getting to know us and hearing a bit more about what we do and what we offer,” said Fiedrich. “Sign up for one of our classes or sign up for our monthly newsletter and keep in the know about we’re doing here.” SPONSORED CONTENT

With the holiday season right around the corner, the folks at Operation Red Nose want to make sure you get home safe. New Westminster, Burnaby and Tri-Cities Operation Red Nose hits the road this Friday, Nov. 24 and will provide rides by donation to anyone who calls between 9 p.m. and 3 a.m. every Friday and Saturday night up to and including NewYear’s Eve, Sunday, Dec. 31. (No rides will be available the weekend before Christmas, Dec. 22 and 23.) Donations collected are given to the local KidSport chapter, a charity that gives kids in need the money to cover registration fees and/ or equipment needed to play organized sports. Despite poor weather last year, $3,600 was raised for KidSport New West, according to Chris Wilson with Operation Red Nose B.C. This year, the Surrey and

Langley Operation Red Nose organizers pulled out, so Wilson expects his team will try and cover a bit of those areas.They also do pick-ups and drop-offs in East Vancouver and as far as the North Shore and Maple Ridge. Of course, how many people are picked up in one night – and from where – depends on how many volunteers Operation Red Nose can recruit,Wilson added. One run requires three volunteers – an escort driver who drives their own vehicle and the two oth-

of drivers on the night of the request.) When: 9 p.m. to 3 a.m. on Friday and Saturday, Nov. 24 and 25; Dec. 1, 2, 8, 9, 15, 16, and New Year’s Eve, Sunday, Dec. 31. More, please: For a ride, call 778-866-6673.

er volunteers to the pickup point and back from the client’s destination; a driver, who drives the client’s car with the client to their destination; and a navigator who directs the driver. “It’s a lot of fun.You meet some really interesting volunteers and some very appreciative clients,”Wilson said. Typically, the busiest nights of the season are the last five nights of the service, including NewYear’s Eve. While there are often a lot of volunteers on NewYear’s Eve, they could always use

more, especially for other nights, according to Wilson. “We’ve already had people signing up, but like I said, we’re always looking for new volunteers,” he said. “People always worry, ‘Oh, I don’t want to have some drunk person in my

car.’Well, you don’t have to worry because they’re not in your car, you’re in their car.They’re a lot less likely to throw up in their own car than they are in someone else’s.” Volunteers are required to get a criminal record check

from their local police department.To download the volunteer application package, go to operationrednose tricities.com/volunteers. Need a ride? Call 778866-6673, 9 p.m. to 3 a.m. Nov. 24 and 25, and Dec. 1, 2, 8, 9, 15, 16, and 31.

Maureen Arvanitidis is stepping down after more than a decade at the helm of the New Westminster Heritage Preservation Society. Arvanitidis was the group’s president for 18 years, but credited the directors and society members for its successes. “The most recent accomplishment is, of course, the creation of the Heritage Conservation Area for

Queen’s Park, with our society members and directors working in conjunction with the residents of Queen’s Park and, of course, the staff and council in New Westminster,” she wrote in an email to the Record. “It is our hope that other resident groups will pursue a conservation area in their respective neighbourhoods – and the heritage preservation society is willing to provide assistance.” Arvanitidis said New Westminster is home to the oldest operating homes tour in Western Canada, a

tour that’s raised awareness about the city and beyond. Arvanitidis will be continuing as past president and will still be involved in heritage in New West, but is thrilled that Queen’s Park resident Steve North has taken on the role as the society’s new president. “I am not going to change the heritage world, but I am hoping we can increase our presence in New Westminster,” he recently told city council. “As you know, we are primarily known for the Heritage Homes tour in Continued on page 42

This is it, girls hoop coach says DougWoodward plans on retiring after 2017/18 By Dan Olson

dolson@newwestrecord.ca

For a swan song, New Westminster Secondary’s Doug Woodward would like nothing better than to leave after extending the senior girls basketball season into March. After 45 years of teaching and coaching, the New West resident says this one will most definitely be his last. “This is my last season. I just came in one day last week and said ‘That’s it,’”Woodward said, matter-of-factly. “I figured you have to make a decision, and that was it.” Having heard the decadesold promises to replace ancient NWSS,Woodward once looked forward to teach in a new building – about 15 years ago. “We were told to move out of the (Massey athletic) office back in 2002, that they were going to tear down the Massey gym soon. Here it is, 2017, and I’m still in my office.” A new school is apparently on its way for 2020; but one of the longest-serving high school coaches in the province will be enjoying retirement by then. Although he’s thrown around talk of hanging up the whistle as often as some furniture stores use ‘Going out of business’ as an annual tag line, this time Woodward said it’s for real. One reason to believe him is that this year’s team is Grade 12-heavy. Nine of 11 players are in their final high school season. Expectations are also not only high, but he felt it also would be fitting to move on after most of his players graduate. Missing the B.C.s last year serves as a motivation for this year’s ambitions. Leaders like Sarah Forgie, Mia Obrovac and Devon Strome are key players on this year’s lineup, one that will take to the court this weekend at a controlled scrimmage tournament in Surrey. On Monday, teams can officially play games, and New West has its first test at McNair.They host Gleneagle on Tuesday for a 5:15 p.m. exhibition game. “We have a good group, but we have to get more motivated,” he said. “If we pick it up a little bit and work a little harder, we can be in the (top-eight) mix.”

Sidhu sets path for Hyacks to semis

NewWest running back scores pair of touchdowns in difficult win over Mount Douglas By Dan Olson

dolson@newwestrecord.ca

Big games are nothing new for the New Westminster Hyacks’ Sammy Sidhu. The Grade 12 running back gave a gridiron clinic on how to create prairie-like open space against a stingy defence, leading his senior AAA football team past the Mount Douglas Rams 19-14 Friday at Mercer Stadium. The win catapulted the Hyacks into Saturday’s Subway Bowl semifinals at B.C. Place (5 p.m.), where they will face South Delta for the second time in three weeks. Sidhu, who finished with 172 yards on 16 carries, was a big part of a polished New West effort on both sides of the ball. While the offence struck for a few big plays, its defence matched Mount Doug’s impressive offensive line and kept star quarterback Gideone Kremler on his toes most of the game. From the outset, the two teams locked formations as defence trumped offence over the first half. Then Sidhu found a hole, and another, as the No. 1-ranked Hyacks built a lead through hard work and quick, darting dashes. “The linemen always create good blocks and big holes for me,” said Sidhu after the game. “It’s

just easy when they give me big holes to run through. ... I was really pumped to play. It was another game at Mercer for our fans.” For the last home date of 2017, Hyack fans went home happy. A provincial wrestling medallist, the five-foot-10 Sidhu broke a scoreless tie with a seven-yard sprint on a third-and-four play with 1:28 left in the second

Everybody is going to ﬁght tooth-andnail because their (football) lives are on the line.

quarter. He churned it up a notch in the second half, breaking free on a 74-yard dash up the middle with four minutes left in the third frame to again bust a stalemate – this time making it 13-7. It came after the Rams tied it with a long and penalty-assisted drive just before halftime, where Kremler scrambled in on a fouryard touchdown run. The decisive points came with 3:28 left in the third frame, when Lucas Sabau pulled off a lengthy

run of his own, sprinting 70 yards to make it 19-7 with a quarter left. Mount Doug didn’t fold, however, and pulled within five points on a 20-yard passing play with lots of time remaining. New West’s defence protected the lead the rest of the way. New West’s first score was a product of a Taran Birdi interception and return, where the Grade 10 safety bottled up a Kremler pass at the Rams’ 44-yard line and brought it inside the 15. “That first touchdown was all because of (Birdi’s) interception,” noted Hyacks coach Farhan Lalji. “He was able to get it back deep, and we were able to get a touchdown out of it. ... Our offence wasn’t able to sustain a drive before that in the first quarter.” A few minutes earlier, New West was on the verge of opening the scoring when a Mount Doug player intercepted a Kinsale Philip pass at the Rams’ own one-yard line early in the second quarter. Sidhu would later rectify that, thanks to Birdi’s timely grab. “With Sammy you know what you’re going to get,” Lalji said. “Coaches from (University of) Guelph were here watching him, but he didn’t know it. He gives you a consistent effort, a consistent performance. ...We have explosive players, whether it’s Sammy, Se-

bastien (Reid), Broxx (Comia) or Lucas (Sabau) and Kinsale (Philiip).We have a lot of explosive players, and that’s a luxury.” New West now faces South Delta, a team they manhandled 63-16 on Nov. 3. “The first thing I told the boys in the room was ‘This is playoff football.This is big boy football.’ All the other games in the regular season are out the window,” noted Lalji. “Everybody is going to fight tooth-and-nail because their (football) lives are on the line.” Sidhu said getting the first win out of the way, and continuing the momentum they had built up over an undefeated regular season, should only help. “We still have lots of room for improvement, that’s why we practise,” said Sidhu. “We’ve got to work on a lot of things that we didn’t execute as well as we wanted at the start.We can get better.” On Tuesday, the B.C. all-star teams were announced and New West had four chosen: offensive lineman Isaiah James, wide receiver Sebastien Reid, defensive linemanYanni Angelopolous, and Sidhu at linebacker. Sidhu and tight end Finn Stark were given BCSSFA scholarship awards of $1,000 each, based on academic, football and community service.

After a successful battle with cancer in 2015, he endured a 2-year decline with side effects from treatment, culminating in several small strokes.

He is survived by his wife of 54 years, Margaret (Grieve), 4 married children and 5 grandchildren. Also, his sister Eleanor Brook of Silverdale, WA, USA., 1 niece and 1 nephew. Our thanks to Dr. Paletta at RCH and the wonderful caregivers at St. Michael’s. There will be no formal service at Richard’s request. A family celebration of life will be held at a later date.

HORAN, Ward Douglas August 9, 1954 to November 9, 2017 Ward passed away peacefully at VGH with his family by his side. He was 63. Ward was born in North Battleford, Saskatchewan, the second child of Hal and Sue Horan who have both predeceased him. After moving several times, the family settled in North Vancouver when Ward was 13. He attended Argyle Secondary School in Lynn Valley and played hockey at the North Shore Winter Club. After graduating, Ward went to SFU and obtained a Bachelor of Arts degree. In his twenties, Ward hired on with the CN Railroad and made a career as an engineer. He worked for 35 years on the trains at a job he loved. Ward lived in Kamloops and Burnaby, before settling 7 years ago on the Quay in New Westminster. From his apartment he could see and hear the trains go by several times a day. After retiring Ward spent his summers at his cabin on Beaver Lake in the Okanagan. There he liked to fish and to dog sit for friends and family. Coming from a large family, over the years, Ward enjoyed many good times at special occasions. He always had an invite and he brought the best desserts. And wherever he lived he would find a local, favorite Pub for a beer and a game of Keno. At the Paddlewheeler, Oliver Twist and Woody’s he made good friends who were like a second family to him. Ward was a generous person who was always happy to help a relative or friend. He will be greatly missed by his fours sisters, Wanda (Lloyd) Manchester, Wynn (Dwayne) Runka, Catherine (Dana Huggard) Horan, Caryl Horan and brother Clay (Janice) Horan. And by his 11 nieces and nephews, Brooke, Lee (Jadie), Ashley (Dustin), Brett (Colleen), Colin (Xuan), Danielle (Matthew), Craig, Rachel (Spencer), Courtney, Cate and Cassidy (Abe). And by his 11 great nieces and nephews, his aunts, uncles, cousins and by all his friends. Ward loved dogs; in lieu of flowers please donate to the SPCA. A ‘Celebration of Life’ will be held for Ward on December 10th from 12:00 to 4:00 PM at the Greentree Village Community Centre, 4295 Garden Grove Dr, Burnaby, BC.

FLEMING, John Matthew It is with great sorrow that we announce John’s passing on October 30, 2017. John was predeceased by his father, John S. Fleming and leaves behind his loving mother, Elsie, sisters Cathy (Danny), and Brenda (Edward), as well as his adored niece and nephew, Kaylee and Seth. Cousins Sharon, John, and Susan held a special place in his heart, as did family in Kamloops and Scotland. A remembrance service will be held on December 2, 2017 at 1:00pm at Kearney’s Columbia-Bowell Chapel, 219 6th Street, New Westminster.
