Students at Gilpin Elementary are learningwhat it means to be global citizens, and they arechallenging other students in the district to do thesame.

Students in Brenda Montagano’s Grade 6/7class were asked to identifying a cause they werepassionate about and develop some kind of initia-tive to help.

“It’s pretty fantastic,” Montagano said. “It’sgone well beyond my hope.”

The students have brought in speakers fromCovenant House (a youth homeless shelter),they’ve had bake sales for endangered animalsand a raffle for the spotted owl.

Bethany Lim, 12, collected donations for thehomeless, packaged them up in shoeboxes anddistributed them in Vancouver’s DowntownEastside.

“We’re so lucky we have a roof over our headand a school to go to,” she said. “We’re reallyprivileged.”

The projects are happening from January toMay, so some are still in progress.

The classmates also want to challenge studentsat other schools to take on similar projects.

“The more people we get, the better the worldcould be,” Bethany said.

Students interested in joining the initiative cancontact Gilpin Elementary at 604-664-8712 and askfor Brenda Montagano.

Suncor cleaning up spill close to BurnabySuncor is cleaning up a spill at its Port

Moody plant, on the Burnaby border, wherea small amount of material has seeped intothe Burrard Inlet.

Suncor spokesperson Sneh Seetal saidthe spill was discovered at about 8 p.m.on Saturday, April 6. Approximately 225barrels of a soybean-based biodegradableproduct leaked on Suncor’s property. A

small amount reached the water, possiblytwo litres, but Seetal wasn’t able to con-firm the amount. The product is used as ablending agent in biofuels. Seetal said that,according to the product’s material safetydata sheet, it’s not classified as environmen-tally hazardous.

“Any time there’s a product that’s notintended for release, we’re not happy aboutit. It’s unacceptable,” Seetal said.

Suncor has a blending and holding facil-ity in Port Moody, right on the border with

Burnaby, overlooking the Burrard Inlet.Seetal said the company alerted the B.C.Environment Ministry and EnvironmentCanada and called on Western CanadaMarine Response Corporation to help withthe clean-up efforts.

Seetal said the company contained theleak, isolated the tank, drained the tank,and dug a ditch around it to contain thematerial. They also blocked the stormwatersewer to stop any leakage into the BurrardInlet. Booms and absorbent pads were also

deployed, Seetal added.When asked why Suncor didn’t alert the

public or the media, Seetal said the com-pany did follow its response plan.

“But absolutely, we will be undergoinga thorough investigation of the incident,and that would involve notification,” sheadded.

She also indicated the exact cause of theleak was undergoing investigation, too.

It’s the end of an era for the BurnabyHospital thrift shop. The volunteer-runstore, which helped raise money to buyhospital equipment, is closing at the endof April.

“I feel very sad that it’s a closure,” saidShirley Hill, chairperson for the auxiliary toBurnaby Hospital. “It’s been a lot of hardwork, it’s made a lot of money for the hos-pital, but it’s time.”

High rents in Burnaby and Vancouverare making it difficult for the shop to turn aprofit, so the auxiliary, in consultation withvolunteers and the hospital’s charitablefoundation, made the decision to shut itdown.

“It just got to be too much money goingto rent,” Hill said. “Rent and managementtook the biggest percentage of the profits,so for all the hard work, we were gettinga small amount for the hospital, so it justwasn’t feasible.”

The shop used to be on Canada Way,just off Boundary, and the volunteers reluc-tantly moved it to Vancouver on Kingsway.The shop would receive donations, and theprofits from the sales would help buy hos-pital equipment. Many of the women whovolunteered in the shop worked there for 20years or more, Hill said.

Volunteers are now holding sales, tryingto sell off as much merchandise as possible,until the end of April. Anything left overwill be donated to another organization,Hill said.

The thrift shop has been around forapproximately 30 years, Hill said, and

makes about $100,000 per year, but afterpaying one manager and rent, there’s onlyabout $10,000 to $15,000 left over. The auxil-iary has about 100 volunteer members whodo a variety of things to support BurnabyHospital. Besides fundraising, they helppatients find their way around the facility.

They also run the hospital’s gift shop, andproceeds from that go to the hospital, aswell.

According to the Burnaby HospitalFoundation, the auxiliary formed in the1940s to fundraise to build the hospital.Over the decades, the volunteers have

raised more than $2 million through fund-raising, the gift shop and the thrift store.

Hill said she wants to thank people whodonated items, patrons who shopped inthe store and all of the hardworking vol-unteers.

The shop is at 3185 Kingsway.

Local MP KennedyStewart alerted media aboutthe spill.

He said he first heard thenews after some of his con-stituents called him, hav-ing heard there was somekind of spill and wonderingwhy they couldn’t find anyinformation about it online,nor any news stories.

“I was thinking in thiscircumstance, they wouldissue a media advisory, butnone of that happened,” hesaid.

Stewart raised concernsthat Suncor didn’t alert thepublic.

“I’d like to hear moredetails, but it does appearthe spill happened on

Saturday, and there wasnothing available to thepublic for quite a few days,so that’s not agood thing. Itjust shows youwhat happenswhen you livein a municipal-ity with a lotof petro-chemi-cal facilities,”he said. “TheConservativesjust said wehave this world-class marineresponse, andpeople don’thear about this in their ownbackyard for days. Perhapsnot world-class yet.”

According to the City ofPort Moody, based on infor-

mation they say came fromthe Environment Ministry,the spill actually happened

earlier, some-time betweenMarch 24 and27, but it wasdiscovered onApril 6.

T h a t ’ swhen Suncoro b s e r v e da sheen onthe water inthe BurrardInlet. WesternCanada MarineR e s p o n s eCorporat ion ,

which handles oil spillcleanup on the West Coast,was on the scene thatevening, and “the mate-rial was deemed to be non-

recoverable,” accordingto Environment Ministrybriefing.

“Initial estimates haveindicated that approxi-mately two litres of R100(the material in question)made it to the marine envi-ronment, i.e., Burrard Inlet,through the oil-water sepa-rator, which dischargesthrough company stormwa-ter infrastructure and a PortMetro Vancouver outfall,”the briefing states.

SNC Lavalin will assessif there is contaminationonsite, the degree of migra-tion, and what actions arerequired to remedy thesituation. According to thebriefing, the EnvironmentMinistry “has advisedSuncor that the inspection

has transitioned into aninvestigation,” and Suncoris complying.

According to theCity of Port Moody, theEnvironmentMinistrycalleda meeting for Thursday,April 11, and invited fed-eral and provincial agen-cies, First Nations, MetroVancouver and neighbour-ing municipalities, includ-ing the City of Burnaby.

Meanwhile, Suncor isstill cleaning up the land-based part of the spill.

Western Canada MarineResponse did not returncalls immediately.

Alan Dutton, a mem-ber of Burnaby ResidentsOpposing Kinder MorganExpansion, said Suncorshould have reported the

spill to the public.“If the public will have

any trust in a pipeline com-pany, in the oil industry ingeneral or in tank farms, wehave to make sure incidentsare reported publicly in atimely manner,” he said.“It’s incumbent on the oiland gas industry to makesure they are open with thepublic.”

The NOW requested thematerial safety data sheetfor R100, the spilled chemi-cal, but Suncor was not ableto provide it by press time.

Material safety datasheets contain informationon any potential hazards forchemical products.

Officers not charged inAngus Mitchell shooting

Less than a year after the shootingof Angus Mitchell, the Vancouver PoliceDepartment has completed its review ofthe incident and concluded that there isno evidence to support charges against theofficers involved.

Burnaby RCMP alleged Mitchell wasinvolved in two shootings in the Burnabylast May.

According to Const. Brian Montague,the VPD found no evidence to suggestthe RCMP officers who shot at and fatallywounded Mitchell “acted inappropriately,or did any wrongdoing.”

Police believe Mitchell entered theRoyal Oak Sushi House on May 27 andshot and killed both Huong “Andy” Tranand Chinh “Vivian” Diem Huynh.

Mitchell was also alleged to have shothis former landlord on May 29. The land-lord survived the shooting.

Police immediately issued a warningto the public, and on May 30 Mitchell wasspotted in his van on 216th Street near132nd Avenue in Maple Ridge.

According to the Maple Ridge-PittMeadows Times, Susanne Murphy of MapleRidge, was driving to the dikes to take

her dog for a walk, when she spottedMitchell’s vehicle and “made the call thatbrought an army of officers to rural MapleRidge.

The RCMP Lower Mainland DistrictEmergency Response Team responded tothe tip and “shortly after Mitchell waslocated, shots were fired at police. The offi-cers returned fire and Mitchell was fatallywounded.”

According to an earlier press releasefrom Vancouver police, Mitchell was shotand later died in hospital.

During the year-long review, Montaguesaid the department was careful not torush the process and looked at everyaspect of the fatal shooting.

“We strictly look at the shooting itselfand whether the officers were justified inusing deadly force,” he said.

The review will be released to the pub-lic as part of a coroner’s inquest into thecase.

The inquest will examine the incidentas a whole, investigating both the May 30,2012 shooting death of Mitchell and theearlier May 27 shootings in Burnaby.

According to Montague, the resultsof the inquest will be made public inNovember.

Two key points are beinglost in the current debateon homelessness.

First, Burnaby already hostshomeless people. So they are not“someone else’s” concern; theyare also our neighbours.

Second, civic tax-payers do not savewhen Burnaby lacksemergency shelter.They instead fund expensiveand ineffective civic services forthe homeless.

The meter clicks each timeresidents contact police to reporthomeless persons. It keeps run-ning when attending officerslack options other than writingtickets or making arrests (withimmediate release from custodyas purported “crimes” becomereal “misdemeanors” at book-ing.)

The Mental HealthCommission of Canada’s report,Beyond Housing volume 3,which was released in Fall2012, now estimates the waste:“For many participants (in theongoing national study of home-lessness services), more stableliving conditions contribute toa shift away from the frequent,heavy, and sometimes inappro-priate use of expensive resources(hospital/inpatient care, emer-gency rooms, police detentions)to more efficient and effectivealternatives (community servi-ces, telephone calls, home visits).

“For participants who wereusing the most services before

the study began (high serviceusers), this results in an overallsavings to government of $9,390per person per year. In otherwords, for every dollar spent,$1.54 is saved through the reduc-tion in other shelter, health and

justice services.”Even Mayor Derek

Corrigan and Burnaby-Deer Lake MLA Kathy

Corrigan pay more than theyshould in taxes as BurnabyRCMP officers try ineffectivelyto “help” the homeless on theirbehalf.

How much more? Informaldetachment data suggest thatthree to five calls per day (fiveper cent of volume) pertain tothe homeless. A five per centslice of $40 million in annualcivic funding is $2 million (or$20 million wasted over 10years). And there may be moreto come.

The B.C. Court of Appeal setprovincial precedent by order-ing the City of Victoria to ceaseenforcing anti-camping bylawswhile it lacks sufficient shelterbeds for local homeless people.(This was affirmed in a secondruling that Victoria need not“help” the homeless duringdaylight because it has sufficientoff-street space for them by day– that closes at night.)

How much more explicitmust judges be that homeless-ness falls into civic jurisdiction?

Lives are on the line, so avoid wasting timeThis week is Emergency Service

Dispatchers’ and 9-1-1 AwarenessWeek. It’s a mouthful, and while it maytake half the week to say the name outloud, the fact is the reasoning behindthe designation – to recognizethe people who take those 9-1-1 calls that we all ferventlyhope we’ll never have tomake – is every bit worth thetime and effort to remember.

Part of the awareness the folks atE-Comm – the regional emergency com-munications centre for southwestern

B.C. – would like to pass along involvesa number of myths that can make theirwork (and their ability to save your lifein time of need) more difficult.

One involves finding you in timesof trouble: contrary to popularbelief, if you dial 9-1-1 froma cellphone, the dispatch cen-tre cannot automatically zeroin on your location. Unlike

land-line phones, cellular devices onlyprovide general location information.You’ve got to tell the dispatcher whoanswers your call where you are.

Some folks believe the best thingto do if you accidentally dial 9-1-1 isto quickly hang up. Not so! Clear thedecks by letting them know it was anaccident. Otherwise, they’ll expendextra effort trying to find you – effortthe next caller may really need.

On that note, E-Comm would ratheryou didn’t pre-program 9-1-1 into yourphone. Dialing three digits is not oner-ous, even in an emergency, and so-called “pocket dialing” from pre-pro-grammed numbers constitutes the bulkof accidental, time-wasting calls that

dispatchers receive.Another source of wasted time is

from people who let kids play with oldcellphones. Decommissioned phonesmaintain emergency 9-1-1 access – that’sfor your safety, not for your kids to foolwith.

E-Comm’s 9-1-1 dispatchers aretrained to help get you through anemergency. The more help they getfrom you, the better they can do theirjob.

Liberals tried to help with HSTDear Editor:

Re: Liberals don’t support B.C. film, Letters,Burnaby NOW, March 22.

In almost every edition of the Burnaby NOW late-ly I’ve seen one group or another lamenting how theB.C. Liberal government doesn’t care about them,that previous funding for them has been reducedor removed.

Well folks, the government did do somethingin 2009 to try and make B.C. competitive with therest of Canada, to obtain the money necessary tooffer tax breaks to the film industry, support health,education, job creation by the only tool it had at thetime of a world economic collapse, by introducing

the harmonized sales tax.Instead the people of B.C. listened to individuals

who didn’t appreciate the taxpayers’ best interestsand by a slim margin voted to go back to the eco-nomically repressive provincial sales tax/goods andservices tax.

So while Ontario and Quebec were getting bil-lions of dollars from the federal government infusedinto their economy, B.C. was trying to figure outhow to pay back hundreds of millions of dollars tothe feds.

While all the stories are sad to hear you will getno sympathy from me. We had the opportunity tobe part of the rest of Canada, and the majority ofcountries around the world, by adopting a simple

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Would Mayor Corriganwaste more tax moneyfighting the precedentin court after advocatesfor the homeless targetBurnaby’s lack of shelterbeds?

I urge him to insteadsite a Burnaby shelter/transition facility andcontribute civic funds toconstruction in recogni-tion of future civic savings.This facility could includeshelter space and activityspace for social workersthat can deliver effectiveservices to the homeless.(Explicitly planning for“dual” use would helpensure that it remains atriage center – an “emer-gency room” for the home-less – and not become apermanent shelter.)

Embracing such afacility may also head offanother pending polit-ical disaster: sale of theWillingdon lands (pre-

cluding any use for newBurnaby Hospital build-ings or continued use foraddiction treatment.)

In 2009, the empty 300-bed Willingdon remandprompted bickeringamong New Democratsand B.C. Liberals.

In 2013, MayorCorrigan’s belated recog-nition of Burnaby’s trueinterests may help per-suade the province to sus-pend any sale, remove thefence, and lease the build-ing for remodeling intoshelter space. A civic con-tribution toward remodel-ing the interior might alsoprompt the province tofund the necessary sup-porting social services andsocial agency office spacefrom it’s share of the $1.54saved for every dollarinvested in properly serv-ing the homeless.

I close by notingBurnaby homeless peoplewith steady access to

indoor plumbing will lookmuch like the rest of us(not drawing the policeor EMS when on a street.)And isn’t this what we allreally want?

I fail to understand whya purported progressivelike Corrigan does not getthis. But it would be fit-ting that a former Oakallaguard “escapes” his cur-rent views of homelesspeople through helpingto remake an unused jailinto active transition hous-ing (while saving nearbyprovincial land for futureuse as Burnaby Hospitalbuildings.)

The late ReverendTommy Douglas, CCFPremier, national NDPleader, Burnaby MP (andminister of the cloth!)would approve (as wouldall pragmatic progres-sives.)

Thank you, Coach LarocheDear Editor:

We would like to formally acknowledgeour son’s hockey coach, Dave Laroche, forthe 2012/2013 hockey season.

Our son has been playing hockey forsix years and this was by far his most suc-cessful year when it came to building hisconfidence and developing his skills. Thereason? Coach Dave Laroche.

At the beginning of the season, duringour initial team meeting, Dave informedthe parents of the general guidelines thathe and the assistant coaches would follow;what was expected of the players; andwhat was expected of the parents.

Three of the comments we had heardfor the first time – they were so simple,so fair, made so much sense and were sorefreshing to hear.

“Even pay – even play”; “It is my goalto have every child develop their skillsand confidence this season”; and “The last

two minutes of every game are my twominutes, and I will play those players whoworked the hardest that game.”

I understand and appreciate the time,effort and sacrifices that come with vol-unteering to coach, manage or assist in asports team.

We believe Dave and the assistantcoaches had all the children’s best inter-ests at heart.

Each child was given fair playing time,and because of that, each child developedtheir skills and felt like they were part ofthe team.

There was no power play line or short-handed line – it was simple, five playerson, five players off, the lines were rolled.On the bench, the coach and assistantcoaches were positive, praised the kidsand gave helpful pointers.

It is my opinion that Dave Larocheshould be used as an example of how ateam should be coached. In a society whereplaying organized sports has become,what I believe to be, an unhealthy com-petitive environment and having fun anddeveloping as a team is no longer impor-tant (especially for elementary school chil-dren), Dave brought back the basics – hav-ing fun, getting exercise, being part of ateam, developing both individually and asa team, and healthy competition.

This was a great hockey season for myson, as a player, and for us (his parents) asspectators, we are so thankful.

On Monday morning, TransportationMinister Mary Polak made an announce-ment that the provincial governmentwill work with the Mayors’ Council onRegional Transportation to help fix transit– but Burnaby’s mayor says it’s all poli-tics.

Polak said theprovince and coun-cil will have newtransit fundingideas and gover-nance options forTransLink done bythis fall, in time forlegislative changesin spring 2014.

“The recent inde-pendent TransLinkGovernance Reviewpoints out thereis more right than there is wrong withTransLink,” Polak said. “Together withMayor (Richard) Walton and Mayor(Wayne) Wright, I have developed a solidprocess that will outline findings and rec-ommendations on how to move forwardon TransLink governance and funding.”

But Mayor Derek Corrigan, who alsoserves on the mayor’s council, said herannouncement was “disingenuous to saythe least.”

“It’s another meaningless announce-ment from a lame duck minister, who

really doesn’t have much to contribute andhasn’t shown any interest in working with(the mayors’ council),” Corrigan said.

In Polak’s April 8 announcement, shesaid the government will support fundingtools that are affordable for families, areregionally sourced, avoid negative effectson the economy and capture benefits fromthe substantial investments made in Metro

Vancouver’s transpor-tation system.

According toCorrigan, Polak hasrejected all the latestsuggestions made bythe mayors’ council.

“They’ve rejectedevery suggestion we’vemade so far,” he said.“To make noises aboutthis is utterly hypo-critical. Many minis-ters have rejected everyopportunity we had to

find some funding mechanism that wouldwork.”

He said the issue has been going on formany years – when Gordon Campbell waspremier – and “nothing ever happens.”

“It’s an effort by this government to tryto alleviate some of the pressure,” he said,“in failing to do anything for the last sixyears.”

“I think they felt the heat, (Polak) feltthe heat,” he said. “She was pretty arro-gant in her responses prior to this.”

But Walton, mayor of the District of

North Vancouver, said he is confident inthis renewed support and focus by theprovince.

“(It) will enable us to find solutions thatwill address the funding and governancechallenges we are facing,” he said in amedia release. “There is no doubt that aneffective and efficient transit service is acritical part of our transportation system,an important contributor to our economyand good for our environment.”

Recently, the mayors’ council heardthe outcome of its TransLink governancereview.

TransLink’s governance was comparedto others like it in the world and wasfound to be both unique and flawed.

It found that while local transit is stateof the art, the system itself is unaccount-able and there is a lack of transparencywith a private TransLink Board.

“TransLink is seen as disconnected fromthe remainder of the region’s governance,”the review, released last month, states.“Few of the respondents believe that thecurrent structure has improved decision-making or efficiency.”

In Polak’s announcement, she touchedon the review and noted that in 2012,TransLink made substantial cost savings,but the region still needs new fundingsources to expand service and growingdemand.

PremierChristyClarkannouncedanoth-er round of funding to make B.C.’s schoolsmore structurally sound in the event ofa major earthquake, and three Burnabyschools are now slated for upgrades.

On Monday, the province announcedfunding for seismic upgrades at MontecitoElementary, Burnaby North Secondaryand Stride Avenue Elementary.

In all, the government has committedmore than $584 million over three yearsfor 45 high-priority projects, including thethree in Burnaby.

“We all know the dangers of living inan active seismic zone. I am pleased to seeBurnaby North Secondary is on the listfor improvement in the immediate future.These seismic projects will make sure that,in an event of an earthquake, our studentswill be protected,” said Burnaby NorthMLA Richard Lee, in a press release.

The program, introduced nearly adecade ago, is backed by leading B.C. engi-neers and geoscientists who designed newguidelines for seismic safety in schools,

according to the government press release.Roughly two-thirds of B.C. schools identi-fied as “high-risk” in the event of an earth-quake are being renovated.

Since 2001, the B.C. government hasinvested more than $192 million to com-plete 16 capital and seismic projects in theBurnaby school district, the release stated.

Of Burnaby’s 49 secondary and elemen-tary schools, eight have already undergoneseismic upgrades. Montecito Elementary,Burnaby North Secondary, Stride AvenueElementary and Alpha Secondary stillneed upgrades. The district needs pro-vincial government approval of the planfor Alpha before the project can moveforward, and once construction starts, itcould last up to two years, according toRuss Sales, the district’s facility servicesmanager.

Anytime the school district redoes aroof, it makes sure the roof is seismicallyupgraded, which helps make the schoolmore sound, Sales added.

The provincial government is esti-mating another $600 million is neededto address the remaining 102 high-riskschools in B.C.

15 Lifestyle challenge

‘THE THING I WANT PEOPLE TO KNOW IS, IF I STAGGER I AM NOT DRUNK,’ – LINDA DAWSON

The faces of Parkinson’s: Linda Dawson, centre poses with her fellow members of a Burnaby support group forpeople with Parkinson’s disease. The group gathers regularly at Confederation Centre in Burnaby. April is Parkinson’sawareness month.

Living with Parkinson’s – it’s no cakewalkLiving with Parkinson’s is not easy. The

neurological disease leaves people withtremors, confusion, mood swings, lossof balance, stiff muscles and joints, andslowed movements to the point where itmay become impossible to write, drive or

even hold a glass of water.“The thing I want people to know is that

if I stagger, I’m not drunk,” said Burnabyresident Linda Dawson, who runs the localsupport group. “I really appreciate it whenpeople are empathetic. If I take a long timeto do things, I’m not slow on purpose.”

More than 100,000 Canadians haveParkinson’s, and approximately 11,000 of

them live in B.C. Those numbers are expect-ed to double by 2016, according to theParkinson Society British Columbia.

There’s no known cure – just medica-tion to treat the symptoms, which can cost$1,000 a month.

According to the society, brain diseaseslike Parkinson’s cost the Canadian health-care system more than $30 billion annu-

ally.April is Parkinson’s awareness month,

and the Parkinson Society British Columbia,a non-profit registered charity, is seekingdonations to further its work. The societyhelps those with Parkinson’s, educates thepublic about the disease and supports sci-entific research for a cure. For more infor-mation, go to www.parkinson.bc.ca.

THE LIVELY CITYMarelle Reid



Global mural projectcomes to Burnaby

A new mural goingahead in the KingswayImperial Neighbourhoodwill be part of the world’slargest mural project,according to a city report.

At Monday night’smeeting, Burnaby councilapproved $3,500 from itsmural grant program to gotowards the $9,300 cost ofcreating one at 7037 AntrimAve.

The mural’s theme ishumpback whales and itwill be the first in a series,part of the ConnectedPacific project, which seesinterrelated murals in threePacific coastal cities to pro-mote conservation.

“On completion, theproject will have muralsin three cities, in threecountries, (Canada, U.S.A.and Australia) essentiallybecoming the world’s larg-est mural project,” thereport states.

The mural will becompleted by ToddPolich, founder of EarthFoundation ConservationSociety, who has also doneothers in the neighbour-hood – including one inthe indoor playgroundspace at the new EdmondsCommunity Centre.

The project is an effort tocombat graffiti in the com-munity, according to thereport.

Diane Gillis, who sits onthe Mayor’s Task Force onGraffiti and is the presi-dent of the KingswayImperial NeighbourhoodAssociation, said the muralwill be a wonderful addi-tion to the community.

“We’re delighted,” shetold the Burnaby NOW. “Wedo have a fair bit of diffi-culty with graffiti in someareas and murals definitelyoffset that in a terrific, posi-tive way.”

Gillis said her neigh-bourhood association signsoff on murals in the south-west portion of the city andthey’ve had repeated issueswith graffiti.

“We’ve done a numberof things over the years,”she said. “We’ve paintedthat building, talked tothe owner of the build-ing. Murals offset the graf-fiti and also enhance thearea.”

Gillis also said muralsact as a deterrent to graf-fiti.

“It’s a long, ongoingprocess,” she added. “We’dlove it if more businesseswould like to step forwardto further enhance that areaas (murals do) add value.”

John Kalbfleisch, ofAlpha Technologies, saidthey’ve had many graffitiproblems over the years on

their wall facing AntrimAvenue.

“We were getting a lotof graffiti on the side of ourwall,” he said. “It’s been achallenge being that closeto the SkyTrain and it’s anaccessible wall.”

Kalbfleisch said the proj-ect will include help fromdisadvantaged youth whowill receive training andimprove their art skills.

“I think it’s a good proj-ect and I think it’s going tohelp a lot of at-risk youth,”he said. “It’ll be a beautifulpainting when it’s done.”

Porsche Boxster improves on near perfectionHow do you improve

on something that is closeto perfection? That’s theproblem Porsche facedwhen it came time toredesign the new Boxster.

And you know what?– they may have justachieved it.

When the PorscheBoxster debuted back in1996, it was billed as ano-frills, two-seat road-ster, and a less expensivealternative to the vaulted911. However, as Boxsterbuyers matured, so didthe car.

It outgrew its puresports car roots by addingmore of the luxury fea-tures that premium buy-ers demanded. So whilewe welcomed this third-generation Boxster, wewondered if it could stillstir our driving senses anddelight our souls.

DesignThe 2013 Boxster is

about as “all new” as aPorsche will get, thanks tothe most dynamic changeyet for their amazing road-ster.

The new car looksbigger and more impos-ing than its predecessor,although in reality, mostdimensions have changedlittle except for the wheel-base and track. It is alsolighter, faster, and morefuel efficient than theoutgoing model. But themost important change forenthusiasts is it conveyseven more of the “puresports car” feeling thanever.

Dubbed the 981, asPorsche aficionados knowit, the new Boxster hasserious road presence.The 981 moniker feelsappropriate as the newdesign is reflective of the918 Spyder hybrid super-car. The Boxster hugs theground – both in termsof its styling as well as itsroad performance – and itobviously looks best withits top down.

The most strikingchange is at the rear,where a large spoilerslices across the entirewidth, integrated intothe taillights. Almost halfof the new body panelsare aluminium and theside intakes have beenenlarged for the sakeof both appearance andadded cooling perform-ance. This was needed bythe updated boxer engineshidden mid-ship.

Nowhere is theBoxster’s “upgraded” feelmore evident than in theleather-clad cabin, wherethe word “luxury” comesto mind. Adopting thePanamera’s upsweepingcentre console, it puts allof the numerous sophisti-cated controls within easyreach. One less-welcomedupgrade, however, is thenew electric parking brake.Even with new excitingfeatures like auto stop-start function and a digitalgauge amidst the cluster,the classic centre handbrake is missed.

PerformanceThe best thing about

the Porsche Boxster hasalways been its fabuloushandling. And thanks to

its lower body and longerand wider stance, the newcar is even better to drive.With the engine mountedjust behind the seats driv-ing the rear wheels, the

Boxster has perfect bal-ance. You really can thrashit around mountain roads,even if you’re not a par-ticularly good driver

David ChaoNOW contributor

Luxury: The new Porsche Boxster is a more mature version that has outgrown itspure sports car roots, but it is still a fantastic ride.

because there’s just somuch grip.

The switch to electricpower steering may con-cern traditionalists, butthis is about as good as amodern electronic powersteering system gets.Unlike electric steering inother premium cars, theBoxster’s modernized ver-sion provides plenty offeedback and very naturalsteering feel – though tobe honest it’s not quite asgood as the system foundin the more expensive 911.

The Boxster also offersdecent comfort. Yes, thesuspension is firm, butit’s never jarring, and theoptional adjustable damp-ers make it even smoother.What’s more, with thecanvas up, there’s not toomuch road noise evenwhen you’re on the high-way. Obviously, a car suchas this is best enjoyed withthe top down and the goodnews is, you don’t haveto pull over to put thetop down. You just pusha button and let it do itsthing. The whole processtakes less than 10 secondsand can be performed atspeeds up to 50 km/h.

Speaking of speed, youcan get the Boxster withyour choice of two six-cylinder engines. You canhave either the base 2.7-

litre or the 3.4-litre foundin the Boxster S model.There’s not a huge dif-ference in their stats, butactually, the two cars haveslightly different person-alities.

The base model is lesspowerful and you haveto rev it to get the mostout of it, but that adds funon a twisty road. On theother hand, the 3.4-litre isprobably better suited forpeople who don’t want towork so hard to experi-ence that historic Porscheperformance. It is also verywell suited to the excellentPDK automatic gearbox,though the brilliant six-speed manual is morecomplicated to use.

EnvironmentSitting inside this

upgraded, high qualitycabin makes it feel like youare driving a car that coststwice as much. If you gofor the optional full leatherpackage, the Boxster feelsjust as posh inside as a911.

Needless to say, thedriving position is perfect.The seats are low slung,which is what you expectin a sports car, but youcan raise and lower themwith a fairly large rangeto accommodate even thetallest or shortest people.

The new Boxster is sur-

prisingly easy to live withbecause it’s actually quitepractical for a sports car.To start, there’s a reason-able-sized trunk at theback, and then another oneup front. Storage inside isgood too, thanks to someuseful side door bins, acentral cubby, a decentglove box, and some pop-out cup holders.

Overall the Boxster isan excellent car regardlessof how you use it, and youhave to look hard to findany faults.

Being critical, the firstproblem is rear visibil-ity, which is poor even byroadster standards, and it’sawful with the roof up.

The biggest issue, how-ever, is the high pricesof the various options– a Porsche tradition.Fortunately, the Boxster’ssurprisingly impres-sive fuel economy goessome way to make upfor those costly options.And besides, you can’texpect a Porsche to be thatreally “affordable” right?– though the base pricesappear reasonable at first.

The Bottom LineThe entry-level Porsche

is arguably the best all-round sports car in theirline-up and remains oneof the best-handling carsmoney can buy.

Variety is key to increasing fitness level

ust as always scalingthe exact same cliffwill hardly improveyour climbing skills,

regularly changing yourworkout routine is a mustif you hope to continue toincrease your fitness level.

If you keep your rou-tine the same it is difficultto stay motivated and yourbody will adapt quickly,which will make it difficultto reach your goals.

A properly structuredfitness program shouldconstantly evolve toaccount for your progressand setbacks, a never-end-ing process that will alsokeep you intellectuallyengaged.

There are many waysto thoughtfully change-upyour workouts, but hereare some tips to start you

off.First of all, you do not

need to swap each exercisefor new ones. If you enjoybench press, by all means,keep doing it. Just tryswitching between eightto ten repetitions at yourmaximum capacity to asmany as twenty repeti-tions at a lighter weight toincrease muscular endur-ance as well as strength.

Similarly, if you are per-forming barbell curls foryour biceps, for variationyou can perform dumb-bell curls which allow for

greater isolation.Of course, you should

never be afraid to trysomething completelynew, like TRX suspensiontraining; just remember toask a gym attendant forassistance if needed.

Changing the targetand number of workoutscan also be beneficial. Forinstance, many performwhole-body routines,which should be complet-ed at least twice weekly.

Want a new challenge?Try a two-day split thattargets half your body dur-

ing each of two alternatingworkouts.

By utilizing a split,you can perform twice asmany exercises per bodypart during each session,although it should opti-mally be performed fourtimes per week.

You can tailor routinesaround specific activities,too.

After all, if you playtennis in the summer andski cross-country in thewinter, it hardly makessense to maintain the samegym workouts year round!

It is a great idea to incor-porate explosive exercisesfor summer sports thatdemand quick sprints, andadd in some plyometricexercises to prepare for theski and snowboard season.

So, to increase youroverall fitness, rememberto overhaul your gymroutine at least every sixweeks and focus on for-cing your body to antici-pate a variety of stresses.

Building a winning culture at BLRC

Burnaby Lake RugbyClub moved into sole pos-session of first place in theCanadian Direct Insurancepremier men’s league onSaturday.

The resounding 60-20victory over third-placeCapilano broke a three-way logjam atop theeight-team ladder, givingBurnaby Lake an overall9-3 record and a four-pointlead over previous front-runner James Bay, whichwas upset 39-12 at homeby 3-7-2 UBC Old Boyslast week.

The victory wasBurnaby Lake’s fifth con-secutive win by more than20 points, which includesone-sided victories over allof the league’s top clubs inthe past three weeks.

The phoenix-like rise ofthe Central Valley club inrecent seasons is largelyattributed to the team-firstphilosophy of head coachKris de Scossa.

“What has come aboutis we’re in the third yearof a five-year program,”said de Scossa, who turnedaround a program that didnot win a single fixturein his first season as headcoach.

Perhaps the most sat-isfying aspect of BurnabyLake’s current success isthat approximately 90 percent of the players thatexperienced those downyears are still actively play-inng, said de Scossa.

“Everyone catches up.We came in with a modernrugby philosophy. … we’re

building a performanceculture,” he said. “Youhave to have a workingenvironment that is openand trusting and an execu-tive that is open mindedto develop the work ethicand culture of success.”

Prior to coming toBurnaby Lake, De Scossa,who has coached at thenational and profession-al levels in Europe andNorth America, helped theCalgary Irish to an Albertatitle and the VancouverMeraloma club to a pro-

vincial championship.De Scossa maintains he

possesses no magic spellsthat can turn around sag-ging programs, just hardwork and working fromwithin a club.

“When (formerCanadian international)Mike James brought me toBurnaby Lake, I could seethey wanted the success,”he said.

Now, de Scossa enjoystraining sessions whereupwards of nearly 100players regularly attend.

“Players are in theschools and in the commu-nity, too,” he added.

Last weekend, the clubhosted a mini-rugby jam-boree to help bring thegame to the next genera-tion of rugby union enthu-siasts.

Despite postingBurnaby Lake’s eighthconsecutive win this sea-son, de Scossa is takingnothing for granted.

“We’ve had some suc-cess,” he modestly stated.“But we have to take each

game at a time. Our finalgame is every game.”

Last weekend, two triesapiece by Evan Thomasand Matt Alexanderhelped Burnaby Lake toa 34-8 halftime lead overCapilano. League scoringleader James Reekie cur-rently tops the premier lad-der with 113 total points,including four tries fromhis standoff half position.

Juniorcoach aCrosbydevotee

Mike O’Reilly wants tobring back the heyday ofBurnaby junior lacrosse.

O’Rielly and formerBurnaby Cablevision team-mate Lloyd Symons willboth be behind the benchof the junior A BurnabyLakers this season.

After missing the postseason for the last twoseasons, Burnaby finisheddead last in 2012 with a3-18 record – the five-timeMinto Cup champion’sworst finish in recent mem-ory.

“I don’t know what hashappened,” said O’Reilly.“I’ve got good peoplearound me and good kidsare coming out. Our goal isto make the playoffs.”

O’Reilly enjoyedthree consecutive MintoCups with the 1977/79Cablevision club.

His mentor was the lateJack Crosby, who alwayshad a special place in hisheart for the junior pro-gram.

O’Reilly means to drawon Crosby’s influence torekindle that winningspark.

“I played all my lifewith Jack Crosby,” saidO’Reilly. “Now, it’s a ques-tion of can I help these kidsout? It’s something I reallywanted to do, and I took(the job) in a second.”

Phantom hockey girlshave something to prove

As the sole Burnabyplayer at this year’s EssoCup midget girls’ nationalhockey championships,Michelle Toor would likenothing better than toprove herself in front ofher hometown fans.

“From the very begin-ning of the season, wewanted to earn our way tothe nationals and to proveourselves,” said Toor, a 16-year-old defender on thehost and B.C. championFraser Valley Phantom.

Toor, a Grade 11 St.Thomas More student,played on the Phantom atlast year’s Pacific region-al championship, los-ing out to the eventualnational bronze medallist,Edmonton Thunder, on alate third-period goal.

At this year’s Mac’sAAA midget tournament inCalgary, the Phantom camewithin a power-play goalof defeating the SaskatoonStars, a team that eventu-ally lost to the Thunder inthe event final.

The Phantom wasunlucky at the Mac’s, fash-ioning a solid 3-1 overallrecord, but missing a berth

in the championship roundon a tournament tie-breakrule to a team with an infe-rior record.

Couple that with thefact that most provincialgirls’ hockey programs inCanada are years ahead ofthat in B.C., and you havethe makings for a Davidand Goliath undertaking.

“It makes uswant to playharder andwork as hard aswe can to catchup with theeast coast,” saidToor, who ledall defenderswith nine goalsand 13 assistsin league playthis season.“We wantedto make a goalof making it to the semifi-nals.”

For Toor, it is a struggleshe has seemingly beenpreparing for since she firstdonned hockey blades asa five-year-old at BurnabyMinor.

There, she played onBurnaby’s then one-and-only girls’ team, whichincluded players as old as12 and 13.

When Toor was seven,

she switched over to boys’hockey for four yearsbefore coming back to thegirls’ game.

“It’s always made mechallenge myself to playbetter,” she said.

Toor, who posted twoassists in the Phantom’s5-1 series-winning victoryover Thompson-Okanagan

Rockets in thebes t -o f - threemidget girls’final in Surreylast Saturday,says spectatorsto the Esso Cuptournament arein for some fastand physicalhockey.

“Our team isreally fast. Weuse our speedto our advan-

tage very well and we’veimproved our shooting andpassing,” Toor added. “Wehope to redeem ourselvesfrom last year.”

The Phantom will getthat chance in its open-ing game at the Esso Cup,when it meets the Thunderat the Bill Copeland SportsCentre on Sunday, April21.

Canada West has wonthe last two Esso Cups.
