new ministers are busy Janis cleuGh The Tri-CiTy News

With just two days on the job, the Tri-Cities’ two new cabinet ministers are already busy.

Yesterday (Thursday), Port Coquitlam MLa Mike farnworth was in Kamloops to

meet with evacuees and emergency officials responding to the wildfires in the Interior and north. on Tuesday, Premier John Horgan named farnworth the minister of public safety and the solicitor general as well as the government house leader.

The next day, Horgan

announced a new cabinet committee to lead the government’s wildfire efforts, including farnworth , forests Minister doug donaldson and the parliamentary secretary for emergency preparedness, Jennifer Rice.

“We are ensuring everything that’s being done is being

done,” farnworth told The TriCity News Thursday immediately after landing in Kamloops and announcing the federal government will provide another 150 soldiers to help emergency personnel with services such as road checks. see RIVERVIEW, page 10

bear facts, part 1

bears are a fact of life in many parts of the tri-cities, as are warnings from city officials and the bc conservation officer service for residents to control bear attractants on their properties. among those attractants — which include fruit trees and garbage cans along with pet food — are bird feeders, which draw bears because bird seed is a high-calorie snack. exhibit a for this advice is provided by tri-city news reader nanu dastur, who shared this photo of a bear on a patio trying to pull down a bird feeder in order to get at the seeds.

bear facts, part 2 [with video]

peter de guia of dipidro photography, whose photos have appeared in the tri-city news a number of times, shared this picture of a mother bear and two cubs wandering a coquitlam housing complex. he also provided a video of the nimble creatures that can be seen at tricitynews.com.

MEMBERSHIP TRIAL

It was shortly after midnight on dec. 15, 2014, when two women walking on a trail near Heritage Mountain community hall were attacked. The court heard that during the robbery, bordbar climbed on top of one of the victims with a knife to take her purse.

The defendant admitted robbing the woman, identified only as a.C. in court fillings, and that he held the blade to her throat after she resisted. but he denied the victim’s assertion that he pulled her sweatpants down with both of his hands in the course of the attack.

“Mr. bordbar agreed that a.C.’s sweatpants came down slightly while she was on the ground but he said this was not from him pulling on them,” b.C. Supreme Court Justice Lance bernard said in his reasons for judgement. “He explained that while a.C. was on her back on the pavement, she used her feet to push herself away from him as he tried to reach for her backpack-style purse.” bernard said bordbar was holding a knife during the attack, which was inconsistent with testimony from a.C. that he pulled her pants down with both hands.

The judge also said that bordbar testified in a “frank and forthright manner” while the victim, who was 17 at the time and under the influence of alcohol, “repeatedly expressed uncertainty about various aspects of the encounter.” bernard was also not convinced there was enough evidence to convict on the two counts of attempted murder. Those charges stem from the fact that bordbar showed up at a.C.’s home the morning after the initial attack with a rifle and wrestled with a.C.’s father, who is known as S.C. in court filings. bordbar had the keys to the home from the purse but the locks had already been changed. undeterred, he rang the doorbell and S.C. answered the door. at trial, S.C. testified that bordbar said “he was here to kill a.C.” before the two wrestled for control of the gun on the front porch of the home. bordbar fell down the stairs in the altercation but picked up his gun and pointed it at S.C. with the purpose of getting “S.C. to back off,” said bernard.

S.C. also testified that bordbar pulled the trigger when the gun was pointed at him but that no

vahidreza bordbar bullet fired.

In his ruling, bernard said some of S.C.’s testimony was inconsistent with the evidence. In the reasons for judgement, he noted that the trigger group on the rifle had fallen off in the foyer during the struggle, making it impossible for S.C. to see bordbar pull the trigger.

The judge also said that it was unlikely bordbar intended to kill a.C., as alleged by S.C. bernard noted that there was only one bullet in the gun, which bordbar testified was there in case he needed to fire a round into the ceiling to get his victims to comply during the robbery.

S.C. also failed to mention that bordbar said “I’m here to kill [a.C.]” to investigators in two interviews with police in the days following the incident.

“It was not until the third interview, three days later, that S.C. first attributed these words to Mr. bordbar,” said bernard in the reasons for judgement.

In the hours following the incident at the home of a.C. and S.C, a man matching bordbar’s description was arrested after a woman was sexually assaulted on Eagle Mountain before having her car stolen. He was taken into custody after a brief pursuit.

Sentencing will move forward this fall on the 17 charges, which include two counts of sexual assault, assault, assault causing bodily harm, three counts of robbery, four counts of disguising a face with intent to commit an offence, pointing a firearm, theft of a motor vehicle, break and enter with intent to commit offence, use of a firearm to commit an indictable offence, possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose and attempting to choke and overcome resistance.

cops looking into fire Teen previously found at PoMo playground hitchhiking is missing The Port Moody police are investigating after a playground in the College Park area went up in smoke early Monday morning.

Witnesses contacted emergency officials shortly after midnight when they saw playground equipment in the burrard Crescent area was on fire. firefighters quickly extinguished the blaze and kept it from spreading to nearby trees and a forested area but the play

structure was destroyed.

Witnesses reported seeing several young people playing basketball at the park earlier in the evening. Police were still investigating Thursday morning but said there is no indication of arson at this time.

“The Port Moody Police department would like to remind everyone to be extra careful and to discard cigarette butts in appropriate receptacles,” police said in a press

The Bra Lady

Is coming to Size You Up

Are you tired of feeling saggy, lumpy, pinched or strained? Well you’re not alone.

As you’ve probably seen on Oprah or read in women’s magazines, over 80 percent of all women wear the wrong size bra.

Due to the overwhelming response to the previous clinic, Barb Chapman is coming to

COQUITLAM - THURSDAY, JULY 27, 2017 to outfit you with the best possible bra for your body. Chapman said she will be seeing clients on a one-on-one basis, explaining the benefits of good bras and measuring their bodies properly.

“Most women just want to find a good-fitting bra that’s not uncomfortable,” Chapman said. “What they don’t realize is that a good support bra is also important for blood circulation and enhanced lymph drainage.”

“Chapman has over 200 bra sizes available for ordering, ranging from 30AA to 52KK. It’s likely that you’ll fit somewhere between those sizes. She offers these questions for women to ask themselves: • Do you have a drawer full of bras but none that fit comfortably?

• Does your bust line “bounce” when you walk while wearing your “everyday” bra?

• Do you overflow the cup of your bra?

• Do your bra straps slip of your shoulder or dig into your shoulders leaving red and painful marks?

• Does your bra ride up in the back because you tighten the straps to give you added support?

• Have you ever begun an exercise class only to drop out because your breasts ached from lack of support while jumping or running?

If you answer yes to any of these you are in need of a new bra, and a custom one could be the way to go.

tentative deal to save coq. heritage home & develop

Developer has to do due diligence on Pollard House

Gary McKenna The Tri-CiTy News

a Coquitlam heritage home is expected to be spared the wrecking ball after the city intervened to save it.

Last april, the owners of 609 Rochester ave. applied for a demolition permit with the intention of marketing the home to a developer. When discussions between staff and the applicant did not lead to a resolution to save the home, the city placed a 60-day temporary protection order on the house “to further investigate the heritage significance of the building and explore opportunities that would result in its long-term protection,” said a staff report. after weeks of discussions, a buyer was found who may redevelop the site while keeping the original home intact as part of a Heritage Revitalization agreement.

Circadian developments, which has redeveloped several heritage homes in Metro vancouver, including the popular Hobbit House in

suBMitteD PhOtO

the pollard house on rochester avenue in coquitlam may be saved as part of a project by circadian developments. vancouver, has agreed to purchase the property after it completes its due diligence, which is expected this fall.

“We are very pleased to be here with this positive outcome,” Jim McIntyre, the city’s general manager of planning and development, told council this week. “I want to recognize and commend the property owners.”

The Pollard House sits on a 1,930 sq. m property

and was built in 1909. The family originally farmed in the area and the building was listed in the city’s 1986 Heritage Maillardville building Inventory. according to a staff report, the home has many significant historical features, from the Edwardian architecture era, including bargeboards and triangular gable brackets.

“This is a very beautiful home that needs preserving,”

said Coun. brent asmundson.

“The interior has some beautiful features that have been very well kept over the years.” under the city’s Heritage Revitalization agreement, developers are offered incentives when proposing developments that preserve heritage structures.

McIntyre said the applicant may wish to develop some infill housing on the site, including townhouses or apartments, while retaining the Pollard House. but he cautioned that while the future of the property looks promising, the sale is still subject to Circadian completing its study of the property.

“We aren’t at the finish line yet,” he said. “We are doing well but we are not quite there yet.”

Duplex, triplexes, fourplexes, oh my, for sw Coquitlam Gary McKenna The Tri-CiTy News

a program that seeks to increase housing options in certain neighbourhoods could soon be expanding to parts of southwest Coquitlam.

The city hopes to bolster its stock of duplexes, triplexes and fourplexes as well as carriage houses and garden cottages as part of a review of its Housing Choices Program.

The goal of the initiative, according to a staff report, is to increase the range of residential types without affecting neighbourhood characteristics.

Since the program’s inception and the development of the Neighbourhood attached Residential land use designation — which includes laneway houses — council has approved 98 housing choices projects, adding 194 units to the city’s housing stock. but Jim McIntyre, the city’s general manager of development services, said the majority of the projects have consisted of only two-lot subdivisions.

He said the simple subdivision of one lot into two lots gets away from the type of infill housing, including triplexes and duplexes, that the city desires. as part of the review, staff will look at ways the city can improve its housing mix and will consider expanding its Housing Choices Program to other areas of southwest Coquitlam. Zoning in much of southwest Coquitlam allows for one-to-one replacement of older homes, usually with a secondary suite. but a staff report notes that the current zoning does “not add to the range of housing options available.”

The Housing Choices Program review will get underway immediately and is expected to be completed by 2019. an update of the city’s Southwest Coquitlam area Plan is also being considered as part of Phase 3 of the review.

how to have a finger-licking good time at PoMo’s ribFest Barbecue expert offers tips for a rib-rageous time Mario Bartel The Tri-CiTy News

tri-city news File PhOtO

ribs, pulled pork, brisket and chicken will all be for sale this weekend as the third annual port moody ribfest takes over rocky point park. the event in its first two years attracted tens of thousands of people who lined up for tasty, slow-cooked meaty treats (and perhaps a cold beverage in the beer garden).

More Tri-City weekend fun: page 17

Put away the wipes if you’re attending this weekend’s Ribfest in Port Moody. because good barbecue will have you licking all the sauce and juices clean from your fingers, lips, chin and cheeks.

That’s the advice from the city’s resident bbq expert, Rusty Johnson, a nationally ranked q champion.

“I never tell people to use napkins. If the bbq is good, you won’t be messy.” barbecue smoke isn’t just in Johnson’s eyes, it’s also in his blood after his family spent some of his formative years in Texas, where barbecue is almost a religion after, well, religion and football. When his dad got a smoker, he got one too. and when he discovered bbq competitions on Tv, his own competitive juices started running. He now has to rent a warehouse to store his 18 barbecues.

Johnson, who won’t be at this weekend’s event because

Side dishes can also factor into the overall bbq experience, Johnson says.

“Heavy meats go really well with acidic side dishes like vinaigrette salads or coleslaws because they cut through the fats,” Johnson says. “They’re refreshing.” onions and pickles are also good for cutting through the sweetness of sauces, he adds. and to wash it all down, nothing does that better than beer, Johnson says. but not just any beer will do.

Heavier meats like brisket pair well with rich beers like stouts and IPa’s while lighter meats go well with citrus-style beers and rich pork dishes should be accompanied by a pale ale. but the most important aspect of a great bbq, Johnson

says, is sharing it with friends, of which there will be thousands this weekend at Rocky Point Park.

“If you can cook something perfectly for 12 hours and have all your friends try it, the reward is so good,” he says. “You don’t hear anybody get excited about grilling a carrot, but a rack of ribs gets people excited.”

• The third annual Port Moody RibFest takes place today (Friday) through Sunday from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. at Rocky Point Park. In addition to lots of mouth-watering food smoked and grilled by competitive BBQists, there will be craft beer, live music and family activities. Admission is free.

he’ll be competing at the national hamburger championships in Edmonton, says the keys to great q are practice, patience and developing a “feel” for the meat to know when it’s done to perfection. and a great griller won’t hide their brisket or shoulder under a thick slathering of sauce.

“Really good bbq doesn’t even need sauce,” Johnson says. “You want to bring out the natural meat flavour. The smoke should get your taste buds going. anything else and you’re masking a bad meat or poor cooking quality.”

Experienced bbqists will know what type of wood to use to fuel their fire; a lighter wood is good for more delicate meats like pork or chicken while a stronger wood such a hickory is perfect for richer meats like beef.

“That’s all in the mix. It’s something we will have to look at.

Coquitlam-Maillardville MLa Selina Robinson, who was appointed minster of municipal affairs and housing — a portfolio that includes TransLink — said she’s been in cabinet meetings and taking charge of her new files since Tuesday’s swearing-in ceremony.

Much of the discussion around the table centres on battling the 150 blazes around the province and ensuring the displaced residents are accommodated, she said.

Robinson said she was honoured to receive the call from Horgan on Monday to take on her new portfolio. “It’s a lot of responsibility but I wanted it,” she said, noting she got involved in Coquitlam civic politics in 2007 with the cold/ wet weather mat program in the Tri-Cities. “Now, here I am 10 years later and I’m still doing the same work.

a PoMo rainbow crosswalk takes a step closer to reality Mario Bartel The Tri-CiTy News

Port Moody is a step closer to having its own rainbow crosswalk. after a presentation by amy anne Lubik and Rodney Stehr at Tuesday’s meeting of the committee of the whole, council referred their pitch — that the crosswalk on Murray Street between Rocky Point Park and brewers Row to be painted the colours of the rainbow as a show of support and acceptance for the city’s LGbTq+ community — to staff for further consideration. Staff will then prepare a report for a future council meeting, likely in September. one of the things they’ll look at is the cost of painting the crosswalk in-house.

Lubik told council painting the crosswalk would cost about $6,500, “which is quite small, we think.”

Lubik said a rainbow crosswalk is a “small, but important, start” to show the community stands with its LGbTq+ members. She said similar crosswalks have been installed in communities around the province, including Kamloops, Nanaimo and Kelowna. and she said a rainbow crosswalk would be the perfect

amy anne lubik (above) and rodney stehr spoke to port moody council on tuesday to ask the city to install a rainbow crosswalk near rocky point park in support of the lgbtq+ community. place to start a public pride parade to engage the community.

“It would be a unifying piece of art for the City of the arts,” she told council.

Stehr, who works with LGbTq+ youth, said a rainbow crosswalk is an opportunity to demonstrate compassion to all

the diverse communities that comprise Port Moody.

“Sometimes it’s much easier to legislate walls to protect ourselves from the things that are alien to us than to extend a brave hand and ask, ‘How can we work together to create a community that is safe for all of

us?’” Stehr said.

Coun. Rob vagramov said he was moved by the presentation and suggested there could even be an opportunity to have more than just one rainbow crosswalk in the city.

more possible pm candidates

at least two other Port Moody residents have indicated their intention to seek the city council seat vacated by Rick Glumac, who resigned after he was elected MLa for Port Moody-Coquitlam.

Shane Kennedy and Timothy favelle posted messages saying they’re planning to run on the newly-created Port Moody 2017 Councillor by-Election Public discussion Group on facebook. They join former councillor Karen Rockwell, who told The Tri-City News she would be running even before the byelection was officially set for Sept. 30.

Kennedy is a tech company executive who unsuccessfully ran for mayor in 2008 and council in 2011. He also ran for the bC Conservatives in Coquitlam-burke Mountain in the 2013 provincial election, finishing fourth with 941 votes. favelle is an ironworker who has no previous political experience. but until aug. 15, any candidates are still unofficial. That’s when the city’s chief electoral officer, dorothy Shermer, will begin accepting nominations; the nomination deadline is aug. 25.

Coquitlam’s parks department says it needs more resources to deal with the dramatic increase in the number of sports tournaments hosted at city facilities.

In the last three years, the number of events has jumped close to 70%, rising from 59 in 2014 to more than 100 in 2017.

“This growth in volume has put significant pressure on staff resources needed to support this sport hosting demand,” said a report. “The influx in signature tournaments requires staff to liaise with organizers well in advance in addition to providing support through the event day setup and cleanup.”

Maintenance crews have also been strained under the increased workload. as a result, staff said they would be making a budget request as part of the 2018 financial plan consultations to increase staffing, although a report presented to council on Monday did not include a dollar amount.

Coquitlam has hosted several major sports events recently, including the Harry Jerome International Track Classic in June, and has bid to host the 2022 fIL Men’s World field Lacrosse Championship.

The city has 42 playing fields, 33 ball diamonds and a lawn bowling green along with the rinks at the Poirier Sport and Leisure Complex. gmckenna@tricitynews.com

OUR OpINION

INGRID RICe

This GG is OK L

ast week, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau appointed former astronaut Julie Payette to be Canada’s next Governor General. Pardon the pun but this was a stellar choice to be our queen’s representative and head of government. Payette is almost universally admired. She speaks six languages. She’s an engineer, a musician, an olympic flagbearer, a pilot and a mother.

The appointment will no doubt provoke fresh debate about Canada’s role as a constitutional monarchy in the Commonwealth. on a base level, it’s tempting. Why should our destiny rest with a royal family in a far-off country most of us may never even visit? and much of the job is ceremonial. but when the time comes, they wield practical power.

We in b.C. have the freshest reminder of this as our lieutenant-governor, benefiting from centuries of tradition, was able to fulfil her constitutional role and ensure a government for this province.

You cannot put a value on the peaceful transference of power.

The citizens of too many countries are denied it and suffer greatly.

WHaT’S YOUR OpINION? this week’s question: does canada still need a representative of the queen to be part of our government?

last week’s question: should tri-city officials step up enforcement of fire safety issues in light of wildfire concerns?

Time to level playing field in prov. election funding H

ouston, we have a consensus. Well, almost. all three parties in the b.C. legislature now support a ban on corporate and union donations, as well as setting a cap on personal contributions.

It’s that last measure that gets tricky. What’s the right cap?

Perhaps b.C.’s new government should rip a page out of alberta’s NdP playbook. Legislate all points of agree- DERMOD TRAVIS ment this fall and set a personal cap that’s painful for the parties, with an agreement that it will be revisited following a public consultation on a host of related electoral issues.

It would be a mistake to set a permanent cap right out of the gate based solely on b.C.’s past fundraising results.

The province’s Wild West political culture has left a distorted reality of donations and party spending, especially when compared to the rest of Canada. a bit of context on party spending: In 2016, the bC Liberal party spent $12.2 million on such things as advertising ($1.18 million), research and polling ($956,803), and bank charges ($164,328).

NEWSROOM 604-472-3030 DELIVERY 604-472-3040 DISPLAY ADS 604-472-3020 cLASSIfIED ADS 604-630-3300 n

TC

Meanwhile the NdP scraped by with $5.2 million. by comparison, the ontario Liberals spent $6.98 million in 2016 and the Progressive Conservatives $7.6 million — and ontario has about three times the number of registered voters.

This is where alberta’s approach comes in handy.

Its bill banning corporate and union donations — passed unanimously — took a two-part approach to the issue. The second part included public consultations on a revised personal limit. unlike b.C., alberta already had a cap in place before Notley. The consultation lowered it from $15,000 to $4,000. alberta also lowered spending limits for elections. b.C. might want to do the same.

In the 2015 federal election, the overall limit in b.C. for a party running a full-slate of candidates was $5.73 million. for the 2017 b.C. election, the limit was $11.63 million.

There’s no shortage of other issues for a consultation to consider. for instance, most jurisdictions set candidate and party limits by taking into account the number of registered voters in a riding and any special circumstances that might exist.

Not so in b.C., where the limit for all 87 ridings was the same, $77,674. The party limit ($4.88 million) also didn’t vary, whether a party ran 10 candidates or 87. It does vary federally.

Then there’s the tiny matter of the Election act not adequately addressing the possibility of a minority government.

You may have missed it but the loud sigh of relief heard across victoria when Lt.-Gov. Judith Guichon didn’t dissolve the legislature and call an election likely emanated from Elections bC. Imagine all the nuts and bolts that go into organizing an election: offices for the returning officers, polling stations, ramping up staff, telephones, ballots, mail-outs, printing, etc.

Now imagine doing it in 28 days without a head start, and on the heels of having just done it. organizing an election is far easier when you know the date four years in advance.

Minority governments don’t fall to suit anyone’s schedule, other than the party moving the motion of non-confidence or a government wanting to fall on one.

Simple solution? Provide some breathing room by amending the legislation to allow for a campaign of 36 or 38 days outside of a fixeddate general election.

It wouldn’t be a bad idea to refer the province’s 87 riding boundaries to b.C.’s Court of appeal for a constitutional reference either, just to ensure they’re constitutionally compliant.

Some issues may seem inconsequential when it comes to election legislation but after the count, it’s important for the public to feel confident that whichever party won did so fair and square.

BLOOMING BURke BaTTLe

COqUITLaM

answer to conflict: having Money to sway just one city – not three Bloom-ing judges The Editor, Re. “Frustration blooms over Burke boom” (The TriCity News, July 14).

I don’t understand why Port Coquitlam council is so angry at Coquitlam. This is what happens in a large, growing metropolis like vancouver. This is also what happens when self-serving politicians refuse to allow their cities to finally amalgamate and reduce costs for taxpayers.

Why must there be so many different cities within one metropolis is hard to understand. all those extra politicians, mayors, fire chiefs, etc. So much duplication, and when it comes to development, nothing can ever get done smoothly.

Whenever amalgamation is brought up, it is hard not to notice local politicians’ deafening silence. PoCo is living next to its own proverbial elephant that has decided to twitch again.

Maybe the Tri-Cities should join all the other ones and just

become one proper Metro vancouver. It may have made sense to be separate 100 years or so ago but today, it is impractical. In this fast-changing age of constantly new technology, it is surprising how hard our local politicians insist on hanging on to the outdated past.

In one contiguous city, Coquitlam’s right to develop its land would not be hindered by a small, surrounded PoCo, as PoCo would not, and should not, exist anyway.

Corey Bronfen, Port Coquitlam

‘livability’?

The Editor, Residential growth is directly related to something called the “gospel of wealth.” This driving force is not without benefits in terms of employment for the duration of a project, and thereafter there is an increase in civic employment plus, importantly, the commerce generated by growth. all well and good.

Speak

Amalgamate the Tri-Cities? Leave a comment on our Facebook page. but the sense of community, the kind that use to create such things as ratepayers associations, has faltered. Some of us recall when Coquitlam deadended Como Lake avenue at Clark to force commuters to go around the city rather than through. Port Coquitlam did the same on Pipeline Road.

It seems only when a person’s view is blocked, then you hear about the loss of livability.

There is no doubt that the quality of living in our urbanized environment has diminished. Where once developers prompted city councils to forget about demanding sidewalks, now their efforts move to

small housing lots and smaller parking spaces at the mall.

The mayor of Port Coquitlam stated in last friday’s Tri-City News that his city is “bearing the brunt of burke [Mountain]” due to the downhill movement of traffic and other issues. You can add also the lack of forward planning for schools and hospital beds.

So what is “livability”? do you think the Metro vancouver Growth Strategy group pondered the meaning of this term and ensured it is instilled in the so-called strategy? I would bet it was never mentioned.

They are pushing tens of thousands of homes on burke.

Keep up the good fight, Mayor Moore and Coun. brad West, but for now, there seems to be no future “livability” at the bottom of your hill or any hill.

Good planning and common sense have long evaporated. We will just have to put up with the never-ending traffic.

Brian Robinson, Coquitlam

would be better spent on parks

The Editor, Re. “Coquitlam showcases green for two Bloom-ing judges” (The Tri-City News, July 19).

This week, the city of Coquitlam competed in the international category of Communities in bloom. I believe that as a result of this, both financial and personnel resources were funnelled from maintaining our parks toward this competition.

While I thoroughly enjoy living in a beautiful city, I have noticed that over the past couple of years, many of my local parks have been poorly maintained.

Imagine my surprise when I went to Mundy Park last night and discovered that a parking lot that is not open had been pressure washed because the judges had been there on a tour.

I also have to question the resources used to have city staff perform a tractor ballet that was filmed by a drone. Judges were also wined and dined and toured by helicopter around the area. at a time when both my property assessment and my tax rate have increased dramatically, I believe this is a luxury that our city cannot afford, especially if it is at the expense of maintaining our parks that are well used. for me, this is just one more example of a mayor and city council who are choosing to spend our tax money on things that are only important to a very few. at the next election in october 2018, I will be looking for representatives who use my tax dollars frugally, just as I must do in order to pay them.

Ryan will also have make-up artists and hair stylists from the blanche Macdonald Centre on hand to offer primping and preening services (but no cuts) for an additional donation.

Ryan, who graduated from photography school two years ago and is in the process of establishing her own studio, said a personal connection moved her into action. She has friends and family in some of the areas affected by the fires and has fond memories of time she spent at the flying u Ranch in 100 Mile House when she was a child.

“It hits home,” Ryan said. “It hurts.” but as Ryan cast about for ways she could help, she kept coming back to her life’s passion. “I love photography, it makes me feel right at home,” she said. “I love the smiles it brings out in people.”

air quality advisory ends

Stronger winds have blown away the air quality advisory for Metro vancouver and the fraser valley.

The advisory was issued Tuesday because of smoke that had drifted into the region from wildfires burning in the Interior.

The bC Wildfire Service reports there are 118 wildfires actively burning in the province, ranging from a 10th of a hectare to 125,000 hectares near Williams Lake. The fires have forced tens of thousands of residents to leave their homes for 11 evacuation centres across b.C. including Kamloops, Surrey and Chilliwack.

Tuesday evening, the smell of burning wood wafted through the Lower Mainland but higher winds ahead of an approaching low-pressure system have cleared the air.

Grasses for summer IN THe GaRDeN

BRIAN MINTER

f there’s ever been a summer more challenging to our gardens, I would be very surprised. a record cool, wet spring, sudden heat and now our usual drought — wow, a triple threat. unfortunately, many folks simply give up on colour and beauty when it should be the prime time for enjoying our gardens. as with all things in life, when given a lemon, make lemonade. There are many creative ways to inject colour and freshness into our gardens now by choosing heat-loving, drought-tolerant plants that, once established, require minimal care and watering. beautiful ornamental

grasses transition nicely from summer into fall. The most beautiful is the annual Purple fountain Grass with its deep burgundy foliage and bunnytail plumes that dance in every breeze. They look great, even all by themselves, in any container or garden but are especially attractive when surrounded with hot pink ‘Wave’ petunias. Its cousin, Pennisetum ‘fireworks’, with its burgundy and pink stripes, is no slouch either when it comes to the ‘wow’ factor.

The plumes on all hardy pennisetums are just now beginning to show and they are fun. The very compact P. ‘Hameln’ and P. ‘Piglet’ are beauties, so is P. ‘burgundy bunny’ with its burgundy striped foliage and dainty plumes. P. ‘Redhead‘ is a little more dramatic with larger bunny-tail plumes that really stand out year after year. These are all winter hardy, drought tolerant and very showy, especially in those hot sunny spots.

Miscanthus grasses also create magic. The drama queens are the larger 4-5 foot grasses

with big showy flower heads.

However, there’s a new trend towards smaller, more compact varieties, like my favourite ‘Yaku Jima’, that brings its beauty down to a lower level for a stunning effect. Even without plumes, variegated miscanthus, like ‘Cabaret’ and ‘Cosmopolitan’, are quite the showstoppers. Speaking of variegation, M. ‘Strictus’ (Porcupine Grass) is always a hit with its yellow horizontal stripes up and down the stems. a little smaller but very elegant, M. ‘Morning Light’ is a favourite for use in containers or ground beds. Newer varieties, like M. ‘Ghana’, have rich autumn coloured foliage, as well as amazing plumes that gently sway in summer breezes. all of these look amazing when surrounded with perennial rudbeckias, especially ‘Goldsturm’ and ‘Early bird Gold’ which bloom until frost.

MARIO BARTEL/THE TRI-CITY NEWS

Coquitlam sprinter James Linde has achieved some of his best successes on the track this summer. He finished second to Canadian Olympian Andre de Grasse at the Harry Jerome International Track and Field Classic in June (below), fourth in the 200m at the national championships in Ottawa and in August he’ll race for his country at the World University Games in Taipei, Taiwan.

after de Grasse, linde ready to launch

Coquitlam sprinter finds success with dedication and new motivation Mario Bartel The Tri-CiTy News

James Linde’s “andre de Grasse moment” didn’t happen at the olympics but it could help propel the Coquitlam sprinter there.

Just as de Grasse caught the world’s attention last summer in Rio de Janeiro when he pushed the world’s fastest man, usain bolt, en route to a silver medal in the 100m, Linde announced his arrival as a bona fide speedster when he finished second to de Grasse in the same event at last month’s Harry Jerome International Track Classic at Percy Perry Stadium in Coquitlam.

The 23-year-old followed that up with a fourth-place finish in the 200m at the Canadian national championships in ottawa and, on aug.

17, he leaves for Taiwan to race for his country at the World university Games.

The universiade, in Taipai, is

the second biggest multi-sport athletic competition after the olympics — and it will be the biggest competition in Linde’s athletic career.

Heading into this summer, that career looked to be winding down.

Linde just graduated from Trinity Western university, where his three medals helped the school’s track and field team win its first Canada West indoor championship last february in Regina.

With student loans on the horizon, along with the financial pressures that come with managing his Type 1 diabetes, he knew he would have to parlay his geography degree into some kind of work. but that could wait until fall.

Linde decided to dedicate himself fully to the track this summer — he wanted to walk away with no regrets, not a single what-if.

That dedication means spending every day working with his coach at the Coquitlam Cheetahs, two-time olympian Tara Self. He pays strict attention to his diet. He’s managing his sleep.

So when Linde stepped into the starting blocks at Percy Perry Stadium in front of a

couple of thousand fans there to see de Grasse — and a few friends and family there to see him — he knew he was prepared for his moment. “once upon a time, I would have been shaken,” Linde told The Tri-City News. “I don’t think I really get nervous anymore,

I get excited. I want to race the fastest people I can just to push myself a little further.”

That sense of calm has made running fast fun, Linde said. and the results have followed.

In the corner after the finish line of their 100m race at the Jerome, Linde and de Grasse

shared a moment, both of them smiling. de Grasse had just cruised to first in a modest 10.17 seconds. Linde had just run as fast as he ever had — 10.42 — to finish second.

“That just happened to be the perfect click,” Linde said. “I made sure to take that moment

in. You can go a whole career without having a real special moment and that was one of the coolest ones.”

Then, while de Grasse was mobbed by hundreds of kids, Linde was asked for his autograph by some of the young runners he helps coach at the Cheetahs.

“It was really cute,” he said. but the experience of racing well against a world-class track star has also opened Linde’s eyes to the possibilities.

“He motivates me just being lined up with him and seeing how fast he can go,” he said.

“You know if you’re at that level, you have to live the sport, you have to eat, sleep and breathe track and field.”

Linde said he’s taking his athletic endeavours event by event, trying to build on his successes while still savouring each one. He’s not thinking about where they could take him. at least not yet.

“I always think I’m done,” Linde said. “I always think I’ve reached as far as I can reach and then I reach another level. The olympics are so far away, it’s such a hard goal to reach. but I thought I’d never be right here.”

saints’ season ends

Coach optimistic about future after strong finish

The Port Coquitlam Saints, with their back against the wall, made a heroic push against b.C. Junior a Lacrosse League rival New Westminster, before succumbing 13-10 in Game 3 of their best-of-five semifinal series. and while it’s not the result Saints’ coach Kelly Scott wanted, he said the team’s ascension into the league’s upper tier is a building block he can build on. “We accomplished where we wanted to finish,” said Scott, whose side overcame an 0-4 start to the season to finish in third place, their highest position in the final standings since 2006.

With the Saints losing only seven players to graduation this off-season, Scott said he’ll put considerable energy into mining local Intermediate and Junior b leagues for quality call-ups who will be able to capably fill the early-season gaps in the lineup left by regulars playing out their collegiate schedules south of the border.

That’s what cost his side earlier this season, Scott said. but once his regulars returned from their school commitments, the Saints were able to finish the regular season with a

six-game winning streak that vaulted them into the playoffs.

“It’s always going to be a struggle,” Scott said. another big hole he’ll have to fill will be between the pipes, as starting goalie andrew Gallant is one of the graduating Saints. Scott said he’s confident young Cam overby, who played more than 300 minutes in his first full season in the bCJaLL, is ready to step into the lead role, so he’s on the hunt for a young backup.

“We’ll have to get the goaltending duo we’re confident in,” Scott said.

Tuesday, at New Westminster’s queen’s Park arena, the Saints grabbed leads of 6-3 and 8-5 but couldn’t stop the high-flyin’ Salmonbellies, who counted five straight goals in a wild second period where momentum changed hands like coins at a laundromat. underdogs in the series, PoCo jumped out to a 3-0 lead when Keegan bell, Carson Rees and daylan Kellough counted goals 1:15 apart early in the first period. but New West replied, tying it early in the second before the Saints went on another three-goal run. Just when it looked like the ‘bellies were reeling, they

responded with a couple of goals to make it a one-goal contest, as the two teams peeled off seven goals in a span of 3:42. dylan foulds’ second of the night, on the heels of captain Sam deGroot’s marker five minutes into the second period, briefly restored PoCo’s three-goal advantage with 30 minutes to play. New West, however, only needed 2:18 to reverse that trend, as the home team peeled off five quick goals before the period ended.

“When you have leads like that, it’s tough to give them up,” Scott said.

In the third, New West played it close to the vest and countered the Saints’ periodopening tally by Connor frost with three of their own. Sam Shiel finished PoCo’s season with a goal as time expired. deGroot and foulds finished with two goals and two assists each, while Keegan bell, daylan Kellough, Carson Rees and Ryland Rees counted other goals for the Saints. Greg Lunde collected four assists.

“The guys showed up, they played hard,” Scott said.

New West now goes on to face the victor of the Coquitlamvictoria semifinal, where the defending Minto Cup champion adanacs lead 2-0.

WAACK, Elenor

December 28, 1936 - July 16, 2017 It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Elenor. Her energy and good nature touched the hearts of those who knew her. Elenor passed away peacefully on July 16th after a lengthy illness. She was predeceased by her husband Henry and her brothers Howard and Roy. Survived by her sons Douglas, Philip (Jodie), Cliff (Barb), Robert (Aida), Richard (Cheri), and Henry Jr. (Andrea); her many grandchildren (Steve, Natasha, Kristian, Sam, Danica, Sydney, Anna and Kyla).

Elenor grew up in Standard, Alberta and met Henry Sr. at Mount Royal College. They married in 1957.

Elenor lived a quiet life to the rhythms of the Alberta seasons; That is, until her six sons came along. In 1970, she moved the family to New Westminster from Lethbridge, with the anticipation that a new job for her husband at Douglas College would provide a better life for the family. Elenor soon found a job at the “Bella Coola” room cafeteria at Lougheed Mall. It was during that time when she nearly lost her life to a horrific accident. During her eight months in hospital, she appeared to be on some kind of quest; survive and inspire. During her hospital stay, she was often struck by the musings of life. Two things moved us at that time: her will to not only live but to live a life with a higher purpose. Elenor started a new chapter in life, one that modelled her conviction that “through hard work and devotion, we can achieve anything”. With dignity, she returned home with a new lease on life; perhaps to calm her son’s fears. After Elenor recovered, she worked many years at Saint Mary’s Hospital until her retirement.

While Elenor may have left this earthly realm; she is looking down wishing us love and happiness.

You are forever in our hearts.

The family would like to thank the “Belvedere” home for their love and care of our loving mother, Elenor. A private celebration of life will be held by the family. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the “Henry Waack Scholarship Fund”.

Please send donations to: The Douglas College Foundation, David Lam Campus, 1250 Pinetree Way, Coquitlam BC V3B 7X3.

LUNDEN, Gordon Murray

May 16, 1930 - July 8, 2017 It is with heavy hearts and profound sadness, the Lunden family announces the passing of our patriarch, Gordon Lunden on July 8, 2017. In the comforting presence of his granddaughter, Nicole Maniago, at the age of 87.

Predeceased by his cherished wife of 53 years, Helen. Survived by his 2 sons, Mark (Susan), and Glenn (Sandra). His grandchildren Melissa (Nick), Josh (Juleah), Nicole, Justyne, Aydn and Evyn, and his great grandchildren Wyatt, Coen, and Jack.

Gordon was a graduate of John Oliver High School (Class of 47’) and spent his working life in sales.

First as a sales rep for several of the major players, Colgate-Palmolive, Johnson and Johnson, and Andrew Jergens, before making, what at the time, was the bold move of striking out on his own as an independent manufacturers agent, with the formation of Gordon Lunden Agencies in 1969.

He belonged to numerous organizations throughout his life, most notably, the Sea Going Hacks (past Commodore), the Northwest Commercial Travellers Association (past president), the Phoenix Food and Drug Group (past president), and the Masonic Lodge.

More recently he was involved in the Wilson Centre Art and Dogwood Life Writers Group. All of whom benefited greatly by his wonderful organizational, and oratory skills.

A real people person, Gordon touched many lives.

His powerful voice, jokes and storytelling will be greatly missed. Though sadden by his loss, it is comforting to know that he is once again with his beloved wife Helen. Now together forever. He will be deeply missed by all. His wishes were to be celebrated, not mourned. There will be a celebration of Gordon’s life on Friday, July 28, 2017 from 1:30 pm to 5:00 pm at the Vancouver Golf Club located at 771 Austin Avenue, Coquitlam.

In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to the Eagle Ridge Hospital Foundation, or to Gordon’s favorite charity, the Crossroads Hospice Society.
