A bylaw that would amend Port Moody’s official community plan (OCP) to allow the redevelopment of the Flavelle sawmill property will go to a public hearing on July 25.

A proposal by Flavelle Oceanfront Development would transform the old sawmill that has been a fixture of the city’s waterfront for more than a century to a neighbourhood that could be home to up to 7,000 people and employ more than 1,100 in offices, shops and light industrial spaces.

Most of the residents would live in 11 condo towers ranging from 16 to 38 storeys and one eight-storey mid-rise building.

There would also be a number of live-work units and 60 to 70 rental units in a low-rise building.

Future plans could include a hotel and almost a quarter of the 3.1-hectare (7.5-acre) site would become parks and green space, with a boardwalk linking to Rocky Point Park. see PUBLIC HEARING, page 6

CANADA DAY: TRI-CITY TRADITIONS

Firefighters & flapjacks (plus beer) JANIS CLEUGH The Tri-CiTy News

Nearly 50 off-duty and volunteer firefighters in Port Moody will stand over hot grills this weekend for the department’s 40th annual pancake breakfast.

The Port Moody Firefighters Charitable Society will host the meal on July 1 and 2 at the Inlet Centre fire hall with the aim to raise $25,000 or more for the Eagle Ridge Hospital Foundation, Crossroads Hospice Society and other TriCity causes. Society president Rob Shoucair said last year’s brekkie drew about 2,300 guests and firefighters this year expect a bigger turnout for Canada 150.

Thrifty Foods will again supply the dry and wet goods: In 2016, the society went through 550 kg of gluten-free pancake mix, 170 bottles of syrup, 300 kg of pork sausages and 600 litres of orange juice.

New for the 2017 event is the sale of Brewers Row growlers — adorned with the Port Moody Firefighters Charitable Society logo — that can be bought at the breakfast for $10 and filled at one of the four PoMo craft breweries (Yellow Dog, Moody Ales, Twin Sails and Parkside); the purchaser will also get a raffle ticket to win prizes.

During the meal ($5, all you can eat), fire crews will also have displays out for the family. jcleugh@tricitynews.com

Port Moody firefighters (from left) Rob Shoucair, Steve O’Brien, Steve McKinlay, Brodie Jamieson and Luka Pavicic will serve pancakes, sausages, coffee and juice at the 40th annual pancake breakfast July 1 and 2, from 8 a.m. to noon, at the Inlet Centre fire hall (150 Newport Dr.).

Newer Canadians sing anthem just as loudly ‘At first, everything was different and difficult’ DIANE STRANDBERG The Tri-CiTy News

It’s not easy starting a new life in a new country when you don’t speak the language.

But for Port Moody friends Maria Kim and Sunyeo Pak, both originally from Korea, the challenges have been worth it as they prepare to celebrate Canada Day tomorrow at Coquitlam’s Town Centre Park.

In fact, it doesn’t take much for Kim to start singing “O Canada” in her melodious voice, and while Pak isn’t ready to chime in, she says she loves Canada all the same.

“At first, everything was different and difficult,” said Pak, recalling her early years spent raising children in Regina. The weather and the language were

MORE C-DAY

see section on pages 17 to 24

obstacles to be overcome but, eventually, Pak found work as a hair stylist. And when her husband, a government worker, retired, the couple moved to B.C. “Now I’m glad I came.

Everything is beautiful,” Pak said, pointing to the weather, the seniors’ programs and Canadian food, such as roast beef and casseroles among her favourite things.

“So I put on weight,” she joked.

Her friend, Kim, prefers salads to roast meats but says she too enjoys living in Canada, even though she misses her grown sons, one of whom moved to Japan for work and the other to Korea.

Kim worked in Banff, along

with her husband, for many years and has a unique perspective on Canadian life from living in the Rockies, learning a bit of Japanese in addition to English, and even some French from when she first landed in Montreal.

Both women are Canadian citizens and will celebrate the country’s 150th birthday.

Kim even plans to dress the part in a red t-shirt emblazoned with a maple leaf atop white slacks.

Together, the two represent a lot of seniors who immigrated to Canada over the years: They’re healthy, enjoy their retirement and their grown children.

Jinah Kim, program officer for SUCCESS, said the Seniors Enrichment Program is an important bridge for older people from Iran, Korea and China who live in the Tri-Cities because it offers a variety of programs to keep them healthy and active. For, example, there

is an English conversation group, art workshops, life skill workshops, tai chi and games.

There are also spots open for senior newcomers who want to join in.

Tomorrow at Coquit-lam’s Canada Day festival, the organization will have a booth for games, face painting and henna sessions, and the seniors will join in the noon procession and sing the national anthem.

The two seniors with whom The Tri-City News spoke hope to be there, as well, to sing the anthem and celebrate their adopted country’s birthday.

• Canada Day at Coquitlam’s Town Centre Park runs from noon to 10:30 p.m. and includes entertainment, displays by agencies and community groups, food, a vehicle showcase, a photo booth, fun with recyclables and much more. The day concludes with fireworks, starting at 10 p.m. dstrandberg@tricitynews.com @dstrandberg@tricitynews.com

PORT MOODY DEVELOPMENT

Public hearing in July on Flavelle continued from front page

In sending the bylaw amendment to a public hearing, Port Moody council unanimously rejected a staff recommendation to scale back the number of residential units from 3,397 to 3,000. That would make it the densest major development either built or planned for the city, according to a report prepared for council by Eric Vance, Port Moody’s acting general manager for development services.

Vance said such high density isn’t in line with the city’s policy to concentrate its growth in specially designated transit-oriented development (TOD) areas. The Flavelle site is just west and north of the Moody Centre TOD area that runs between Moody and Spring streets, and between the SkyTrain tracks and St. Johns.

But Coun. Meghan Lahti said that’s close enough for her. “It has to be walkable to transit, and I think this is definitely walkable,” she said.

Coun. Diana Dilworth said Flavelle’s proposal for the site has the potential to become the city’s “signature development.”

In fact, earlier in the evening council heard several presentations from residents and proponents praising the plan. They said it will create more housing choices for people who want to stay in the city or move to Port Moody.

Daphne Herbert said retaining the higher density will “accommodate downsizers and bring young people back home.”

Mike Hind, president of the Tri-Cities Chamber of Commerce, said reducing some of the density could come at the expense of the project’s commercial and light industrial opportunities to create jobs, especially in the high-tech sector he believes would be attracted to the site.

“This promotes the highest and best use of the land,” Hind told council.

Bruce Gibson, the vicepresident of real estate asset management for Flavelle’s parent company, AP Group, said he’s encouraged by the support for the project from the public and councillors.

“The success relies on the community wanting it to happen,” he told The Tri-City News.

“This allows us to move forward with confidence.”

If the bylaw amendment to the OCP is approved, the development proposal would then have to go to Metro Vancouver for its assent to change the property’s designation from industrial to mixed-use. A previous attempt by the city in 2014 to change Flavelle’s designation was rejected by the Metro board because there wasn’t a development plan in place compelling enough for it to give up industrial land.

Gibson said he’s confident history won’t repeat itself with this proposal.

“This is a really big project,” he said. “It’s exciting.” mbartel@tricitynews.com @mbartelTC

‘No’ to single-family homes only at Ioco A motion by Port Moody Coun. Meghan Lahti that would have restricted the future development plans for much of the Ioco lands to single-family homes was rejected by council on Tuesday.

But what will be built on those lands is still up in the air.

Tony Cai, the CEO of Big Circle Group, the development company seeking to transform the 250-acre site at the end of Ioco Road that encompasses the historic Ioco townsite, said the firm will move forward with the input it received from the community during a third round of consultations that was to wrap up today (Friday).

“We will consider everything we’ve heard as we determine next steps in our planning and design process,” Cai said in a statement. “We are in no rush.”

Indeed, Kevin Ramsay, a former Port Moody city manager who has been hired as a government consultant for the Ioco project, told council the company doesn’t expect to apply for any kind of development permits until 2019 “at the very earliest.”

In making the motion, Lahti said the city needs to take a

about the road, or the park.

“This is not a cheap political move,” she said. “We have an opportunity to create something out there that doesn’t burden our road network.”

But Coun. Zoe Royer said a development of single-family homes would do just that.

“The city would be burdened with the cost of supporting roads, fire, police services in the area,” said Royer, who voted against Lahti’s motion, along with councillors Diana Dilworth, Rob Vagramov and Mayor Mike Clay. A component of the motion urging staff prioritize high-density developments in the Inlet Centre and transit-oriented development areas passed unanimously. “Even adding several hundred homes will be unmanageable for Ioco Road.”

Penny Bickerton, who lives on Ioco, told council she welcomes the idea of mixed development at the Ioco lands because it could bring services and amenities that Port Moody’s north shore is lacking, including better transit service, shops and even job opportunities.

“We need to be visionaries,” she said. “We have to look to the future.”

breath as it considers a variety of major development projects that could explode Port Moody’s population and strain its infrastructure, especially transportation.

“It’s not the right time for densification of an area that’s not well-serviced and is completely dependant on automobiles,” Lahti said. “Even contemplating development of an area that is solely accessible by cars is a step backward.”

One of the key components of the redevelopment of the Ioco property is the construction of an alternate access route to ease the traffic burden on narrow, twisty Ioco Road.

At its June 13 meeting, Moody council approved a study of five possible routes to create a second connection to the Ioco townsite from the rest of the city. At the time, some councillors suggested if the redevelopment weren’t comprised of anything more than singlefamily homes, a second road may not be needed.

One of the routes being considered is an extension of David Avenue to April Road that would bisect the 311-acre Bert Flinn park — a route that has been on the books for two decades.

Lahti said her motion wasn’t

Outdoor burning is (again) about to be snuffed in Pt. Moody Council has previously been close to ban on open fires MARIO BARTEL

The Tri-CiTy News

Port Moody moved a step closer Tuesday to joining the rest of the municipalities in Metro Vancouver in banning outdoor fires.

On Tuesday, Port Moody council gave three readings to an amendment to the city’s fire protection and emergency response bylaw to prohibit any open-air burning of wood, grass and garden clippings, tree trimmings, waste material from construction sites, garbage, rubber, tires or plastic.

Violators would face a $250 fine.

But the city has come that close to banning fires before.

A ban proposed in 2015 by then fire chief Remo Faedo got three readings in council, then was sent back to staff for more work before it could be adopted. At the time, council said it needed more public input and research information about the safety and health concerns regarding outdoor burning.

A report by Port Moody Fire Chief Ron Coulson presented to council June 8 said there are myriad risks from open fires.

Coulson said Port Moody firefighters responded to 133

calls for breathing problems and another 104 calls for chest pains in 2016. He said the department receives more than 50 burning complaints every year.

One elderly resident told council there are already days she can’t leave her home because it’s hard for her to breath because of smoke and pollution. Allowing her neighbours to have campfires or burn debris only makes it worse, she said.

Coulson also said the city’s proximity to forests and wildland vegetation puts it at risk for a calamitous wildfire like the one that destroyed more than 2,400 buildings and forced the evacuation of 80,000 people from Fort McMurray, Alta. last year. That fire is the single most expensive insured disaster in Canadian history, costing more than $3.58 billion in claims, according to the Insurance Bureau of Canada.

“While the probability of an interface fire is somewhat low, the consequences that can be suffered are extremely high,” Coulson said in the report, adding outdoor burning has been banned in Coquitlam since 1990 and was banned in Burnaby in 2004. Burning bans also exist in every Lower Mainland community from Bowen Island to Langley Township, and outdoor fires are only allowed on three specific properties in Maple Ridge.

Still, one councillor said

residents should be allowed to enjoy a campfire in their yard if their neighbours don’t mind.

“I think there’s a middle ground,” said Coun. Rob Vagramov, who was the only councillor to vote against the bylaw amendment.

ISTOCK

A bonfire in the backyard may sound cozy but such open burning is prohibited throughout the Lower Mainland — and Port Moody may soon be adding its own ban.

City of Coquitlam

NOTICE OF PUBLIC CONSULTATION The City has received an application to amend the Citywide Official Community Plan (CWOCP) relating to the property located at 3552 Victoria Drive, as shown on the attached map.

The application proposes a redesignation of a portion of the subject property located under the BC Hydro Right-of-Way, from Open Space to Townhousing Residential. If approved, the application would permit the land area that falls within the BC Hydro Right-of-Way to be used for a proposed townhouse development under the RT-2 zoning designation. The area within the BC Hydro Right-of-Way is proposed to accommodate a roadway, parking spaces, pedestrian pathways and semi-public landscaped areas.

The first Market at Brewers Row, held last Friday in the parking lot at Port Moody Station Museum, drew about 2,000 people. The market takes a break tonight for Golden Spike but returns July 7.

POMO BREWERS ROW

Market lights up night MARIO BARTEL The Tri-CiTy News

The ice cream sandwiches from one vendor were sold out by 8:30 but, otherwise, Port Moody’s first night market last Friday was a roaring success.

Amelia Norrie, one of the organizers of the Market at Brewers Row, estimated upwards of 2,000 people visited the inaugural event, held in the parking lot of the PoMo Station Museum. She said the warm summer evening and the market’s uniqueness in the TriCities kept the throngs coming.

“It was crazy,” Norrie said.

“What I kept hearing is there’s nothing like this in the area.

This night market concept has really gotten to people.”

Norrie said the vendors, which included clothing boutiques, artisans and a food truck, were thrilled with the turnout and visitors told her they were happy at the variety of vendors. So much so, Port Moody police attended for much of the evening to ensure pedestrians crossing Murray Street to and from the nearby craft breweries stayed safe.

“It was busy,” Norrie said. “It was a really cool, festive atmosphere.”

And with this week off before the night market resumes weekly from July 7 to Aug. 11, Norrie said organizers will use that time to make a few adjustments to make the experience even better, including adding more vendors and more live music, and creating a scavenger hunt to engage visitors who aren’t inclined to shop while they’re at the market.

“People are excited,” Norrie said. “As long as the weather cooperates, I think people are going to want to come back. A buzz has been created.” mbartel@tricitynews.com @mbartelTC

OUR OPINION

INGRID RICE

Affordable start in Coquitlam

With the benchmark price of a Coquitlam home at over $800,000, many are concerned about being able to afford one because of the cost of getting into the market.

But a solution may be on the way thanks to a partnership between the city of Coquitlam and Habitat for Humanity.

Coquitlam is providing the land and Habitat will provide the capital to build 40 to 50 homes that people earning less than $68,000 can live in. The money they pay in contributions will be put aside by Habitat so that when they leave, they get the money back (minus a fee and costs for any damage) to be used for a downpayment on their next home. To qualify, people would need to have jobs and also contribute 500 hours of their time volunteering for Habitat.

Is this the solution to the Metro Vancouver affordable housing problem? No, but it’s a good start.

WHAT’S YOUR OPINION? THIS WEEK’S QUESTION:

DO YOU AGREE WITH THE CITY PUTTING ASIDE LAND FOR THE HABITAT FOR HUMANITY HOUSING PROJECT?

LAST WEEK’S QUESTION:

DO YOU THINK PORT MOODY IS BECOMING TOO DENSE WITH THE ARRIVAL OF THE EVERGREEN EXTENSION?

Attack the issues – not the individuals Internet can be dark place for respectful conversation

P

oliticians and public figures are accustomed to criticism.

They may not like it, but complaints come with the job.

Over the past few years, however, we’ve seen a disturbing trend. The anger has intensified and the vitriol GREG KNILL grown toxic.

It has prompted at least one Lower Mainland mayor to declare that enough is enough.

John Becker, mayor of Pitt Meadows, says he’ll no longer allow his character to be sullied by unfair allegations. He’s vowing to fight back, even if it means legal action. His anger follows news that Nicole Read, mayor of neighbouring Maple Ridge, actually missed council meetings after being alerted by RCMP that a threat had been made against her.

The source of much of this hate is social media, which can be anything but “social.”

Facebook and Twitter have become powerful tools in communication. Most of us use at least one of them, both personally and professionally. They’re great ways to stay informed and share thoughts and opinions.

But we’ve seen far too many examples where they’re used to spread hate and harm. And the attacks aren’t limited to politicians, says Becker, who noted: “To see this expanding into attacks on… my business. My children are attacked, my wife is attacked.”

Other communities are no stranger to this viciousness. For example, in my community, Chilliwack Mayor Sharon Gaetz shut down her personal Facebook page several years ago, partly because of the anger that it drew.

Today there are several “private” Chilliwack Facebook groups where the tone is vicious and the accusations unsubstantiated.

Sociologists have written extensively about social media and the anonymity it provides. Things people won’t say to someone’s face are freely shared and cheered online. It’s a bully mentality, and standing up to that bully only draws more hate.

On a recent weekend, I posted John Becker’s story from the

Maple Ridge-Pitt Meadows Times on the Chilliwack Progress Facebook page. One person called him an “idiot.” A couple more told him to just do his job.

Criticism in public life is nothing new. But there is no place in our public discourse for personal attacks, where the intention is not to educate or inform but to demean and denigrate.

We won’t tolerate bullies in the school yard and we shouldn’t tolerate them online.

We don’t accept misogynous and racists rants in person so we shouldn’t accept them online.

The common wisdom is to ignore them. “Don’t feed the trolls” is the usual advice.

But increasingly, people are starting to say that’s not enough.

Celebrities are vowing to “out” their online attackers; politicians like Mayor Becker are threatening legal action. “They’re doing it with impunity because no one else has had the guts to call them out and make them accountable,” he says.

We should be equally resolute. Having strong opinions is what makes a democracy strong. But let’s attack the issues, not the individuals.

THE DREADED CHAFER BEETLE

GUNS

2 suggestions for chafers

Take time, learn about legal guns before writing The Editor, Re: “Shocked and horrified at ad flyer for guns” (Letters, The Tri-City News, June 28).

After reading the letter writer’s reaction to an ad for firearms in the back of a flyer, I wasn’t sure if amusement or deep dread for the future of humanity was the appropriate response to feel.

With all due respect to Pat Dewhirst and all those who are so irrationally afraid of firearms, I want to extend to you my advice: Learn and educate yourselves. Heck, even have a little fun with a gun at the range now and then.

Respect the firearm and you’ll learn to respect those who legally choose to own them.

Legal ownership of

The Editor, Re. “No easy answer, beetle battle continues” (The Tri-City News, June 21).

Managing lawns with just one or a few varieties of grass can be challenging in the face of the European chafer beetle.

However, there are clear strategies that would likely mitigate the problem.

One approach, well known in forestry circles, is to use mixed-species. Monocultures — plantings with just one species — tend to be more vulnerable to disturbance agents such as insects. If the one species is susceptible to a given agent, then likely most of the planting will be lost during an attack.

If a variety of plant species are used, then an insect infestation is less likely to destroy the crop. This is because different species have varying resistance to disturbance agents. One species may succumb while the rest continue to thrive. Also, the spread of a pathogen tends to be slowed down in a mixed species landscape since the susceptible plants have wider separation.

To be most successful, the idea that lawns need to be com-

firearms is growing in this country and it’s not due to “pockets of ignorance.” Ms. Dewhirst, your problem would be with illegal firearms as “potential murder weapons.” And, as adults, let’s admit to ourselves that those aren’t coming from the Cabela’s flyer.

So, before we send out letters to the editor that make us seem like terrified children suffering from the very same ignorance that they are accusing everyone else of, let’s calm down, think rationally. And if we’re still at the point of hysteria, realize that even if you don’t agree with an ad in a flyer, your unfounded fears shouldn’t be the basis upon what is and is not featured in future ads for the rest of us.

Matthew Cornfoot, Surrey

One species of grass isn’t the only way to go for your lawn, says a letter writer with ideas about dealing with European chafer beetles. prised solely of grass species is best discarded. Mixed-species lawns would include vegetation such as clover and field daisy.

Such lawns would serve well the same functions of traditional grass turf. They are green, can look neat when trimmed and can have a lush appearance when well cared for. A game of badminton works just as well on a mixed planting as it does on a grass monoculture.

A great example of the success of such mixed species lawns can be seen on the Riverview Hospital grounds. The chafer

beetle has had very little effect on the large expanses of green there despite problems in many surrounding areas. The lawns make a fine accent to the trees and buildings on the grounds.

While the mixed-species lawns described here would not work under every circumstance, I suspect that this approach would function well in most situations.

Wolf Read (PhD, forest science), Coquitlam

TRY TARPS The Editor,

I have found a way to protect my lawn from the pesky chafer beetles and the raccoons and skunks that eat them.

Chafer beetles emerge from the ground in late May to early July, mate and then the female goes to the grassy areas to lay her eggs.

During late May to early summer, I lay tarp down and secure it with stakes. The hatched beetles can crawl from under the tarp but cannot get to the grassy areas to lay their eggs due to the tarp.

As the beetles only emerge at dusk (about 9 to 10 p.m.) and there is no activity during the day, I uncover the lawn every two to three days so I don’t kill the grass. I water and cut the grass if needed. I have 900 sq. ft. of grass and it takes me just under an hour as I have multiple tarps.

This method only needs the initial cash outlay for the tarp as it can be used every year. As the beetle cannot lay its eggs due to the tarp, the raccoons and skunks have no grubs so don’t destroy the lawn looking for a meal.

CRIME

Spray suspect sought by cops Mounties are seeking the public’s assistance to help identify a man seen pepper spraying a vehicle during a dispute with another driver in Maillardville in April.

The incident occurred at the intersection of Brunette Avenue and the Lougheed Highway on April 17 at around 7:15 p.m., when the driver of a black Mercedes sprayed the occupants of a grey Kia. “There is no excuse for getting out of your vehicle and using a weapon against people in another vehicle,” said Coquitlam RCMP Cpl. Michael McLaughlin.

“Having said that, the initial dispute about who should yield to whom was totally pre-

ventable,” he added. “If you can control your own actions, keep a cool head behind the wheel and avoid confrontations on the road, you will make things safer for everyone.”

The driver of the black Mercedes is described as an Asian or South Asian male in his late teens or early 20s who is about six-feet tall with a slim build.

Anyone who recognizes the man should not confront him and should instead call the Coquitlam RCMP non-emergency number at 604-945-1550 and ask for Const. ChabotMaltais. gmckenna@tricitynews.com @gmckennaTC

Speak up

for a great start to next school year!

Across BC, we are beginning a new chapter in public education—one that will bring an end to 15 years of cuts and closures.

BC teachers are working toward a great start to the new school year, but we can’t do it alone.

We need government to invest in full implementation of the Supreme Court of Canada ruling, without cutting existing services to kids. And we need school boards to work with us to hire the teachers needed to create smaller classes and ensure extra support for students who need it.

Please, join us in calling on trustees and district management to provide the information and political will to make the next school year better—for all our students’ sake!

WRITING CONTEST

Two weeks to Tiny Stories deadline Can you write a story in just 420 characters?

Got a little time to do a little writing?

Coquitlam Public Library (CPL) is holding a Tiny Story Contest from May 29 to July 14.

Tiny stories — also known as flash fiction, postcard fiction and micro fiction — are extremely short stories. The story must be 420 characters or fewer — approximately one paragraph —with every letter, space and punctuation mark counted.

(The first 420-character stories were written by author Lou Beach as social networking site status updates. These stories were collected and published in a book called 420 Characters, which serves as inspiration for the Coquitlam library contest.)

In the CPL contest, which is sponsored by The Tri-City

DONATE BOARD GAMES Are you wondering what to do with your old board games?

Kids enjoy playing games at Terry Fox Library — in fact, they’re a huge hit at the Port Coquitlam library.

Thus, Terry Fox would appreciate the donation of gently used games. Complete sets are appreciated and you can simply drop by the library — which remains open during construction of the revamped PoCo recreation complex — with your donations.

For more information, visit Terry Fox Library at 2470 Mary Hill Rd. or call 604-927-7999.

Terry Fox Library is part of Fraser Valley Regional Library (www.fvrl.ca).

News and open to residents of Coquitlam, Port Coquitlam, Port Moody, Anmore, or Belcarra, each entrant can submit up to three stories (entries already published, accepted or submitted elsewhere are ineligible).

Winners will be invited to read their stories on stage at the Kaleidoscope festival at Town Centre Park on Aug. 12

and winning stories will also appear on the library’s website, Facebook page and in The TriCity News.

The Tiny Story Contest is free to enter and there are prizes to be won. For story samples and full contest rules, go to www.coqlibrary.ca/ home/tiny-stories-contest. newsroom@tricitynews.com @TriCityNews

NEW HOME DEVELOPMENT

Oakridge Centre Redevelopment Goes Back to the Drawing Board V ancouver’s Oakridge Centre is slated to undergo some major redevelopment plans, including its residential components, after changing management officially from longtime proprietors Ivanhoe Cambridge to QuadReal Property Group on June 1.

Cambridge to QuadReal Property Group on June 1.

Ivanhoe proposed an initial rezoning plan for the mall in 2007, but came back to Council in 2014 requesting a more highdensity plan (illustrated in renderings).

A second redevelopment was approved

by Council in 2014 but since a shallow aquifier was discovered below the mall in 2015, QuadReal plans to begin the process afresh. QuadReal has selected Westbank, a prominent Vancouver developer, as its partner in the Oakridge redevelopment.

“Along with QuadReal, we have an opportunity to bring to fruition a new standard of urban living about which we have long been passionate-a cultural hub that takes every element of a vibrant multicultural city and shares them with

HARRY JEROME CLASSIC

Records safe No world records were set at Wednesday’s Harry Jerome Track Classic that was held at Coquitlam’s Percy Perry Stadium.

In fact, there weren’t even many personal bests.

But the athletes put on a show that got the capacity crowd of more than 3,000 people cheering for favourites like Canadian Olympian Damian Warner and sent hundreds of them streaming onto the track to engulf sprinter Andre De Grasse in a reverential scrum.

Organizer Doug Clement, of the Achilles Track and Field Society, said weather conditions might have played a role in the tepid performances. He said swirling breezes made it difficult for the jumpers at the long and high jump pits

and certainly contributed to De Grasse’s 10.17 amble in the showcase men’s 100 m race. Just two weeks ago the Olympic bronze medalist scorched a Spanish track in 9.69 seconds, the fourth-fastest time ever recorded. But he had a gale-force wind at this back, which also rendered the record moot.

Wednesday, De Grasse and the rest of the sprinters ran into a slight headwind, said Clement. That made any kind of record run almost impossible.

“They have to have good conditions to break records,” Clement said. “Sprinters running into headwinds can make a difference of two or threetenths of a second. That’s huge.”

Clockwise from top left: Canadian Olympian Damian Warner keeps his eyes on the line as he finishes first in the men’s 110 m hurdles at Wednesday’s Harry Jerome Track Classic at Percy Perry stadium. A high jumper clears the bar as twilight descends.

Andre De Grasse and Coquitlam Cheetahs’ James Linde finished one-two in the men’s 100 m sprint. Runners take off in the men’s 800 m. The blur of runners in the men’s 400 m.

CHAMPIONSHIP SAVE

PROVINCIAL PUNCH

Third time a charm for Coquitlam boxer DAN OLSEN BURNABY NOW

It’s all good for Coquitlam’s Charly Dawson – and a big win underscored that.

The North Burnaby Boxing Club member captured the B.C. lightweight (135-pounds) junior title recently with a split decision over Surrey’s Gavin Bisla.

Backed by coaches Manny Sobral and Dave Robinson, Dawson has made some impressive strides over the past year.

Having a pair of losses to Bisla as motivation – with the most recent just two months ago – made the decision all the more sweet.

“I wanted that fight, because (Bisla) is a good fighter,” said Dawson, 15. “I wanted the belt so I kind of pushed harder.”

It was the third meeting between the two fighters, and it was the first time Dawson got the upper hand.

The judges took some time to make their decision after the three-round match, with two of the three judges giving the nod to the CABE

Secondary student.

“It took (the judges) a while, I guess that shows how close it was.”

With his orthodox style, Dawson came at the rematch with a definite plan, although looking back he still thinks it could have been better.

“I think I could have done better and thrown more punches. I don’t know. He’ll probably want a rematch – I want a rematch, too,” added Dawson. “My other fights (with Bisla) seemed shorter.

This time I grew a little, we were about the same height and weight.”

It was his sixth fight, and improved his record to 4-2.

In just his third year in the square jungle, Dawson is enjoying everything about the fisticuff sport.

“I just like it. I like MMA (mixed martial arts) but boxing is my favourite. …

(Sobral) has helped me a lot and he has so much experience. Anything he tells me that I do, it always works out.”

Sobral doesn’t put a ceiling as to what the teen can achieve in the ring. Every

fight is a door that can lead further up the ladder, with next year’s nationals on his radar. The veteran boxing coach says it is the steps between each door, the training and dedication, which makes up the path.

He feels Dawson has made strong foundation to build on. “(Dawson) understands distance really well and that’s difficult to train,” said the North Burnaby coach.

“That’s positioning yourself right, to where an opponent can’t land a punch on you or not.”

Right now, getting him some more fights is the next step.

“As long as he sticks to it,” said Sobral. “It’s like so many other things – you get what you put into it. Boxing is something (Dawson) enjoys, and it has helped him focus and stay on the straight and narrow.

“For some kids, its piano, or cross country, but for Charly, it’s boxing that gives him a focus. He’s tasted (success) at it and he wants to keep chasing it.” sports@tricitynews.com

Coquitlam Metro-Ford keeper Petri Du Toit punches a scoring opportunity away from Surrey United forward Andy Ahn as defender Danny Jelenici looks on in their BC Premier Soccer League U17 final, Saturday at Town Centre. Coquitlam won the match 2-0. The Metro-Ford girls U17 team also won their final, 3-0, over Mountain United. But other Coquitlam sides that reached the finals weren’t so fortunate. The Metro-Ford girls U15 lost its final to Surrey United, 3-0, and the girls U14 team lost 3-0 to Mountain United.

HAMMOND, Kenneth Arthur (1943 - 2017) BOISSY, Pauline Theresa (nee Butler) September 29, 1918 - June 20, 2017 “Do not go gently into that dark night, Old age should burn and rave at close of day; Rage, rage against the dying of the light.�

Dylan Thomas A fighter until the end, Pauline’s long battle is over and she is now at peace. She will be greatly missed by all. Born in Revelstoke, B.C., Pauline grew up in Beaton, moving later to the West Coast, raising family in Vancouver and then moving to the Tri-Cities.

Died after a long illness on Friday, June 9th. He died peacefully with family by his side. He was married to Judi for 49 years and was the proud father of Kirsten and Jason, and grandfather to Flynn, Nolan and Caelen. Ken was a teacher, and later a principal in District 43 for 27 years.

A special thank you to the staff at Hawthorne Care Centre in Port Coquitlam, Cedar Cottage Wing, who made Pauline’s last years as comfortable as possible.

A graveside service will be held on July 10th at 11:00 a.m. at Mountain View Cemetery in Vancouver. In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to the Hawthorne Seniors Care Community’s Capital Campaign renovation fund or to a charity of your choice.

KOSTYNIUK, Irvine “Gigi�

June 24, 1949 - June 17, 2017 It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our incredible father and Gigi, Irvine Nicholas Kostyniuk on June 17th, 2017. Irvine is survived by his loving wife LeeAnn, daughter Cindy (Brian) Legge and sons Curtis (Tina) Kostyniuk and Cory (Jackie) Kostyniuk, sisters Linda (Wayne) and Alexandra. He will be deeply missed by his grandchildren Makenzie, Nicholas, Aaden, Kieran and Madison as well as extended family, nieces, nephews and dear friends.

Irvine will continue to live through each of us as we remember his sense of humor, his love of family values, for giving so much of himself to others and his love for sports. Irvine was a man who enjoyed life and had an infectious smile that one will never forget.

Rest well Irvine, you leave behind a legacy that will continue to burn bright for years to come.

Celebration of life to take place on Sunday July 9, 2017 from 1:00pm - 3:00pm at River Springs Community Centre 1950 Lodge Drive, Coquitlam, BC. Burkeview Chapel 604-944-4128 firstmemorialportcoquitlam.com
