The Burnaby school district is urgingparents to have alternate arrangementsready for their kids in case the ongo-ing teacher labour dispute shuts downschools Sept. 2.
In a letter to parents Monday, super-intendent Kevin Kaardal said the districtanticipates teachers will not report towork for the scheduled first day of schoolif a settlement isn’t reached within theweek.
“Should this be the case, regretfully,all Burnaby schools would be closed forinstruction and although principals andvice-principals would be in their schools,they would be unable to provide studentswith instruction or supervision,” Kaardalwrote.
“We know how disappointing this willbe and we regret the hardship it createsfor families.”
Teachers around the province launcheda full-scale strike on June 17 after three
weeks of rotating strikes.Little progress has been made over
the summer, and the B.C. Teachers’Federation and the B.C. Public SchoolEmployers’ Association haven’t met for-
mally in face-to-face negotiations sinceAug. 8.
Kaardal urged parents to keep an eyeon media reports and on the school dis-trict website (sd33.bc.ca) since school
officials will hold off until Sept. 1 beforedeciding whether or not schools can beopened on time.
If there is a settlement and schools do
Green Party distances itself from BFCThe Green Party has been quick to dis-
tance itself from the Burnaby First Coalitionafter that party announced its candidatesfor November’s provincewide municipalelections included two leaders of the 2011battle against the Burnaby school board’santi-homophobia policy.
Former Parents’ Voice president andspokesperson Heather Leung and formerParents’ Voice school trustee candidateHelen Ward are running on the BurnabyFirst slate for school board and city coun-cil, respectively.
Parents’ Voice was a group formed to
fight Burnaby’s school anti-homophobiapolicy, passed unanimously by the schoolboard in 2011.
Vancouver Green councillor AdrianeCarr told Vancouver gay and lesbian news-paper Xtra last week that LGBT equality isa “make or break” issue for the Greensand the party would never enter into anysort of coalition with a group like Parents’Voice.
Carrie McLaren, a former BurnabyGreens candidate, told the publication thatthe Green Party was not involved withBurnaby First “at all.”
McLaren, however, is listed as a BurnabyFirst Coalition Society director on incorpo-ration papers filed in Victoria in February,
and longtime Green Party activist BruceFriesen is the new party’s campaign chair.
Rick McGowan, another former Greencandidate, has also been a visible figure atBurnaby First press events.
McLaren explained to the NOW lastweek that the Green Party had not official-ly endorsed the individuals’ involvementwith the new coalition.
“They don’t endorse anything at amunicipal level unless you have an agree-ment with them and you’re running as aGreen Party,” she said. “We were thinkingabout it originally, like last year, but wedidn’t have enough people who had thetime to do this right now.”
McLaren said, despite disagreeing with
some Burnaby First members’ views ongay issues, she would have been willing towork with them to bring more open debateto city council and school board, both ofwhich are currently made up exclusivelyof Burnaby Citizens’ Association mem-bers.
“To have actual debate and have anactual opposition, yes, I can work withanybody,” she said.
In the real world, McLaren said, peoplehave to work with people they disagreewith.
“Everybody keeps making a big frick-ing deal about this,” she said, “and itdrives me nuts. If there’s one bad apple,the whole barrel is not bad.”

The City of Burnaby is lobbying for thesupport of the Union of B.C. Municipalitiesin its fight against Kinder Morgan over theproposed Trans Mountain Pipeline.
On Monday, Burnaby city council votedin favour of forwarding an emergency reso-lution to the UBCM – which is holdingits 2014 conference next month – in aneffort to prevent the energycompany from conductingland surveys as it looks totunnel through BurnabyMountain.
The resolution is criti-cal of the National EnergyBoard’s public hearingprocess, or lack thereof. Areport before council calledthe process “unbalanced,unfair, and biased in favor of the applicant’scorporate interests over the protection of thepublic from significant environmental, socialand economic impacts.”
Coun. Anne Kang said for previous majorenergy projects, the NEB allowed for tradi-
tional public hearings where citizens andgroups could vocalize their concerns and askquestions, unlike the current process wherethey can only submit letters.
“Now we see the loss of bothoral hearings and cross-examina-tion of evidence by concernedcitizens and other entities suchas local government as ourselves,environmental groups or evenlawyers,” she said.
“I don’t thinkthis is right. Ibelieve that thereshould be a prop-er public hearing,where peoplecan come in and examine theapplication, view the docu-ments and evidence, and askquestions that they’d have toanswer publicly.”
Coun. Colleen Jordan noted their criticismisn’t rooted in the council’s long-held stanceagainst the pipeline, but rather is about thefairness of the consultation process.
“This is about a process for public engage-ment and an opportunity to let people ask
questions,” she said.Mayor Derek Corrigan echoed her senti-
ments, saying, “Whether you’re for or againstthe Kinder Morgan project, youshould want a fair process.”
Coun. Paul McDonell calledthe current hearing process “asfar as you could go for injus-tice” and Coun. Pietro Calendinoslammed the Harper Governmentfor “stripping citizens of theirdemocratic right to expressapproval or disapproval for amajor project.”
Before council voted on theresolution, Corrigan said disal-lowing citizens the opportunity
to speak about the project can cause them tolose trust in the public hearing system.
“People lose faith in public institutionswhen people no longer believe that the pro-cess is fair or that the people who are makingthe decision are actually listening to what’sbeing said by citizens. That’s what’s happen-ing here.”

The smell of smoke lin-gered in the air as fire inves-tigators from the BurnabyFire Department preparedto enter a burnt-out homeon Neville Street betweenMacPherson and Plum ave-nues on Friday.
Less than 10 hours ear-lier, it was a much differentscene at 5658 Neville Street.Firefighters were called tothe house around 12:30 a.m.on Aug. 22 when the two-storey residence caught fire.
The blaze spreadthroughout the home, caus-ing damage to nearly theentire structure, Burnabyfire investigator Joe Tylor
told the NOW on Friday.“The main thing is every-
body got out OK. So nowwe’re just dealing with theinvestigation and workingwith the insurance compa-ny,” he said.
When firefightersarrived on scene, Tylor saidtheir priority was gettingthe family of four and twobasement tenants out of thehome right away.
Once that was taken careof, firefighters went to workcontaining the two-alarmblaze before it spread to thehomes on either side.
In the quiet SouthBurnaby neighbourhood,
the homes are very closetogether and the chance ofthe fire spreading was a realpossibility.
Tylor credits the quickresponse from firefighters asto why the fire didn’t jumpto the homes next door.
Despite little damage tosurrounding residences, thehouse itself was badly dam-aged. Much of the roof col-lapsed and inside there islittle that wasn’t burnt ordestroyed by the blaze.
The cause of the blazeis expected to be releasedlater this week or early nextweek.

Officers also found two war medals,believed to be from the Second WorldWar and Vietnam, several coin collections,
a mountain bike, a point-of-sale machineused to swipe credit and debit cards instores, and several pieces of identification,the release added.
“This is a great example of the highlevel of communication and cooperationbetween the Burnaby RCMP and NewWestminster Police Department to tar-
get areas of criminalactivity that impactsour two communities.We’re stronger work-ing together especiallywhen we have areasof joint concern,”Burnaby RCMP ChiefSupt. Dave Critchleysaid in the release.

While our provincial pol-iticians slumber (withseveral notable excep-
tions) on the summer barbecuecircuit, our federal party leadershave been busy in this province.
The past couple of weekshave seen Prime MinisterStephen Harper, NDP leaderThomas Mulcair and Liberalparty leader Justin Trudeau allvisit B.C., an indication perhapsthat all three see winning certainseats here as critical to forminggovernment come the next elec-tion.
Of course, conventional wis-dom is that southern Ontarioand Quebec hold the keys towinning a federal election, butin a close race a number of B.C.ridings could spell the differ-ence between forming a majoritygovernment and a minority one.
This province will have sixadditional ridings (giving us 42in all) come the next election,which makes B.C. even morecoveted by federal political par-ties.
Recent opinion polls suggestTrudeau and his federal Liberalsare tops in popularity across
the country, with the NDP run-ning slightly ahead of the rulingConservatives. But, as everyonein this province is well aware,polls don’t have a spotless trackrecord in predicting electionoutcomes.
And in this province, itwould take a significant shiftin voting patterns to deny theConservatives a majority of B.C.seats in the 2015 election.
The party currently holds21 of 36 seats, and the addi-tional ridings coupled with theredrawing of electoral bound-aries favours that party morethan the others (in fact, trans-posing the votes from the lastelection over the new ridingswould give the Conservatives 28of 42 seats).
And most of theConservative-held seats werewon by large margins. Thosetransposed results show theparty has support of more than50 per cent of the voters in 17ridings.
But if the polls are correctand the Conservatives areindeed losing support, the partycould be vulnerable in four ofthe new ridings and perhaps acouple of others.
The party most likely to bene-fit from any Conservative slip-page is the NDP, as it finishedwell ahead of the Liberals in theridings that may become com-petitive in 2015.

Port acts like a small, independent countryOnemight jump to the conclusion
that Port Metro is a small independentcountry such as Liechenstein. It certainlyoperates like one.The corporation has approved a $15
million project at Fraser Surrey Docksthat would see at least fourmillion metric tonnes of coalshipped by rail to the trans-fer facility and then bargedto China. This despite official opposi-tion from both municipalities, whichare directly affected by the project. Thisdespite health authorities voicing their
serious concerns. This despite the factthat Portland, Oregon has just turneddown a similar project. This despite aflood of opposition from citizens. Thisdespite the fact that the last thing Chinaneeds is more air pollution from burning
fossil fuel – or for that matter,anyone on the planet needs.So why on earth was it
approved? Was it because ofthe 25 jobs created by the project? Yes,that’s not a typo – count ‘em 25 jobs not2,500 or even 250. No, we doubt that.The answer is simple, Port Metro ben-
efits. And Port Metro gets to say who usesits land and howmuch they pay to use it.Port Metro is technically responsible
to the federal Minister of Transport inCanada. That would be Lisa Raitt, whoseresume includes a stint as the Presidentand Chief Executive Officer of theToronto Port Authority (TPA). She hadpreviously served as the TPA’s generalcounsel and harbourmaster. So, if you’rethinking that an appeal to her envi-ronmental conscience will turn thingsaround – don’t waste your time. Oh, andin case you’re wondering if this is the
sameministry that is in charge of moni-toring rail safety – you’re right. The sameministry that was called out for a lack ofsafety inspections on the railroad operat-ing in Lac Mégantic. So, why wouldn’t wetrust it to make environmental decisionsin the Lower Mainland? Seriously, is thisa test of our gullibility?There’s something terribly wrong
with a country that calls itself a democ-racy, yet allows a corporation to ignorecitizen’s concerns and democraticallyelected city councils.

Letter writer off on Mount PolleyDear Editor:
Re: Keep Perspective on Mine, Burnaby NOW,Aug. 20.
I have read thousands of letters to the editor inmy life and there have been some good ones andbad ones. I have even written a few of the bad onesmyself.
I also think that it is great that newspapers pub-lish good and bad, as it gives us an idea of whatthe public is thinking. But Donald Leung’s recentletter claiming that the Mount Polley tailings breachis “not unlike any other naturally occurring mudslide” sets a new low for insulting our intelligenceand his own.
Why does Mr. Leung think that tailing ponds arerequired? Is it just to store drinking water in case ofa drought? Maybe it boosts unemployment in ruralareas?
The fact of the matter is that tailing ponds storeextremely toxic waste that is deadly to humans andother life. If Donald Leung thinks the runoff fromMount Polley is so pristine, I challenge him to spendhis next vacation swimming and eating fish fromQuesnel Lake.
Like the Lac-Mégantic disaster confirmed, it isvery bad policy to leave industry to regulate itself.While we don’t have all the facts as to why this hap-pened, I would be willing to bet lax regulation had asignificant role in the Mount Polley toxic release.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Re: Health care is under attack, BurnabyNOW, Aug. 20.
This letter was right on about theupcoming lawsuit to have wealthy peopleget in the front of the line by using privatefacilities by doctors like Dr. Brian Day.
The right to use the private systemshould be given to people with money,however, there should be no right to claimunder the public medicare system. Also,the doctors and nurses in the privatesystem would need to build their own
hospitals/clinics/labs that would not bereimbursed by the public’s tax money.
All use of the private system would beat the patient’s cost and the doctors andother medical people would not be reim-bursed by public tax money. That is theonly way the private system could work inCanada. It is a mystery as to why Dr. Daychose Canada to immigrate from whateverCommonwealth country he came from.He would have had the opportunity tomake all the money he wants if he had justimmigrated to the United States.

This will explain whyMulcair may spend a dis-proportionate amount oftime in this province in therun-up to the next cam-paign.
The federal NDP hassome challenges in otherprovinces, notably Quebec,where it unexpectedly wonmost of the seats in the lastelection. One of its QuebecMPs has quit the caucusover Mulcair’s position onIsrael, and polls suggestthe Liberals have surgedto even strength with theNDP in that province.
Mulcair’s problemsover his Mideast policythreaten to go beyondlosing a Quebec MP. Manyleft-wing ideologues inhis party strongly opposeIsrael on any issue andback policies that favourPalestine. In fact, the fur-ther left side of the partyis uncomfortable withMulcair’s push for morepragmatic and centrist poli-
cies designed to expandthe party’s appeal. Theypoint to the party’s dismalresults in recent byelectionsin Ontario and the recentprovincial election as proofthat such an approachdoesn’t work.
But for all his troublesin Quebec and Ontario,Mulcair would seem to beon firmer ground in B.C.and his party has a reason-able chance of buildingon the 12 seats it currentlyholds.
As for the federalLiberals, it will take acomplete re-enactment ofTrudeaumania for the partyto find much success in thisprovince. Justin Trudeaumay visit this provincemany times in the next yearor so, but his party’s dismalsupport among B.C. votershas got to be discouragingfor him. His party holdsonly two B.C. ridings, andthose transposed resultssuggest the party is com-petitive in just three others.
Of course, Trudeau
has improved his party’sfortunes a great dealaccording to those nationalopinion polls, and it stolea seat from the NDP inTrinity-Spadina in a federalbyelection in impressivefashion.
And Trudeau’s youthis no doubt appealing tomany people, particu-larly younger ones. Butas the B.C. NDP painfullylearned in the last electioncampaign in this province,most young people don’tvote.
Nevertheless, Trudeauwill be visiting B.C. quitea bit in the year ahead, aswill Mulcair and Harper.There are about 15 or soridings that stand a chanceof swinging from one partyto another in 2015.
And winning those seatsmay determine whetherone of those leaders formsa majority or minority gov-ernment.

and the B.C.Public SchoolE m p l o y e r s ’A s s o c i a t i o n(BCPSEA) urg-ing them to startn e g o t i a t i o n sin earnest sothe start of theschool year is notdelayed.
Mezei saidthe Burnabyparent groupwould like to
see schools opened on timeand negotiations betweenthe province and teach-ers continue behind closeddoors, if necessary – an ideaput forward at a meetingof district parent advisorycouncils from around theprovince on Aug. 16.
As the last week beforethe scheduled start of schoolbegan, however, Burnabyteachers were back on thepicket line and planned tostay there every weekdayuntil Sept. 2.
“We want to make itclear that we want BCPSEAto get to the table andenter into mediation withus,” Burnaby Teachers’Association president RaeFigursky told the NOW.“We want a deal beforeSept. 2.”
The main sticking pointsin the labour dispute arewages, class size and classcomposition.
If the strike continuespast Sept. 2, the provincialgovernment has promisedparents $40 a day for eachstudent under the age of 13for child care and educa-tional activities to be paidout after the strike is over.

Fraud victims pay for yearsSix Burnaby residents
were recently identified bythe Burnaby RCMP as vic-tims of a scam that datesback to the late ’90s.
According to a releasefrom the local RCMPdetachment, the large-scalescam has been defraudingseniors across the LowerMainland since 2013. Policesay many of the victimsdon’t believe they are infact victims.
“We have done our bestto convince them that thisis a scheme and that theywill continue to lose signifi-cant amounts of money,”Burnaby RCMP OperationsOfficer Supt. Stephan Droletsaid in a release. “Sadly, thisstory is not unique. Thisis why we are encourag-
ing the public to share thisstory with their families,friends and acquaintances.It’s up to all of us to ensureour loved ones, especiallythose that are vulnerable,are protected against thesefinancial vultures.”
Mounties say the scamsbegan more than a decadeago and for most peoplethe story is a familiar one.In 1999, someone fromthe Nigerian NationalPetroleum Corporation con-tacted a man. He thoughthe had awarded a multi-million dollar contract forpipeline work in Nigeriabut was told he would haveto pay fees to secure thecontract, the release stated.
Seven years ago, the mandied and his widow contin-ued to pay the fees, think-ing the contracts, allegedlyworth $58 million, will one
day be paid out, the releaseadded.
Burnaby’s Cpl. DanielleO’Brien of the economiccrime unit said in manycases the fraudsters use realpeople’s names to convincetheir victims of the scam’svalidity.
“The same names areused repeatedly by dif-ferent fraud groups,” sheadded in the release.
While pipeline scamshave dwindled over theyears, police are still cau-tioning residents to be waryof unknown requests formoney.
Police are asking anyonewho may have fallen victimto this scam or continuesto pay into it to contact theBurnaby RCMP economiccrime unit at 604-294-7922or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).

Corrigan blasts Portfor approving coal
Following Port Metro Vancouver’sapproval of a $15 million coal transfer facil-ity by Surrey Fraser Docks, Burnaby citycouncil expressed its disappointment withthe ruling.
Mayor Derek Corrigan led the criti-cism, slamming the port’s decision aftercities like Portland and Oakland turneddown the project and blasting the stan-dards of Montreal-based engineering andconstruction company SNC-Lavalin, whichreviewed FSD’s proposal.
“The last time we discussed this, I gotsome notoriety for suggesting we actedas if we were a banana republic,” he said,“but when I look at the report from SNC-Lavalin, who said in their report that therewas no unacceptable risks for the project,(I have to ask) unacceptable to who? SNC-Lavalin?
“I doubt that there is much that is unac-ceptable to SNC-Lavalin, given their his-tory.”
The creation of the coal transfer facility isexpected to dramatically increase the num-ber of coal trains through Surrey and Deltaas American coal is brought into B.C. and
shipped overseas to China.Coun. Nick Volkow stressed concerns
with public safety, citing the disastrousLac-Mégantic train derailment that killed 47people last year.
“One of the main problems that led tothe disaster in Lac-Mégantic was the factthat the federal government deregulatedthe railway industry and basically allowedthem to operate their own shop with abso-lutely no oversight from anybody,” hesaid.
“I would urge people that may havesome concerns … (to) start paying attentionto what they’re proposing and take a goodlook at the report that was issued last weekin regards to the Lac-Mégantic disaster.”
Corrigan said the reason the coal transferfacility passed in Canada is because citizens“won’t stand as firmly as people will standin the United States.”
“As we give up more and more of ourdemocratic right to make choices aboutour future, as we allow these governmentsto take away the opportunity for electedpeople to make these decisions, what weend up with are decisions that are made bycorporate bureaucrats on behalf of multina-tional companies,” he said. “I think it reallyis a shame.”

The City of Burnaby is hosting a seriesof special activities this Septemberfor Active Aging Week, an annual
worldwide event that puts a positive spinon getting older. Four local community
centres – Edmonds, Cameron, Bonsorand Confederation – are running specialprograms for seniors from Sept. 21 to 27,and all the activities are free. From pilates,to dancing, to snooker and table tennis, the
choices vary and support seniors in stayingfit and engaged in their communities.
Staying active doesn’t necessarily meanexercising, according to Colin Milner, CEO ofthe International Council on Active Aging.Milner’s for-profit enterprise puts on theActive Aging Week, which is now in its11th year and is celebrated in 37 differentcountries.
Staying active isn’t just about exercise- it includes staying socially connected,keeping your mind active, exercising andvolunteering, Milner explained.
“We look at all areas of life, irrespectiveof your socio-economic status andirrespective of your health,”he said.“Ifyou’re in a wheelchair, ... life doesn’t stop. It’scertainly not just about physical activity.”
Exercise can help people function longer asthey age and their bodies lose strength.
“If we get older and we are inactive, webegin to lose our abilities. Physical activityand exercise allows us to maintain them fora much longer time,”Milner said.
To take advantage of the free activities forActive Aging Week, check out the eventsposted on the bulletin boards at eachcommunity centre or go online at www.burnaby.ca.

MOVERS & SHAKERSJacob Zinn
The Burnaby Board ofTrade has gone green– so green, in fact,
that it has received ClimateSmart certification for itsefforts to reduce green-house gas emissions.
The BBOT received thecertification after takingsteps to decrease travelemissions and paper con-sumption. The board hascommitted to a carpoolingpolicy, as well as encour-aging members to bike ortake transit to events.
“We see it as a part ofour leadership role to helpour members become moresustainable and to cele-brate their successes in ourcommunity,” stated BBOTCEO and president PaulHolden of the certification.“A part of that leader-ship was making sure thatour own house was inorder and that we under-stood our impacts andimplemented strategies toreduce them.”
They’ve also imple-mented a policy to taketransit to all downtownmeetings, decrease single-occupancy commutes towork by five per cent andpurchase 30 to 50 per centrecycled paper for in-house use.
The initiative is part ofthe BBOT’s Pledge for aSustainable Community,launched in May 2013. Todate, 115 businesses havetaken the pledge. For moreinformation, visit bbot-pledge.ca/portfolio/bur-naby-board-of-trade.

Fine-arts school‘exemplary’
A Burnaby fine arts elementary school has earneda special designation from an American organizationdedicated to supporting excellence in art education.
Confederation Park Elementary, the Burnaby schooldistrict’s only dedicated fine arts school, earned the“Exemplary School Designation” after an intensive self-evaluation process guided by Arts Schools Network, thelargest professional membership organization of special-ized arts schools in the U.S. and Canada.
“This is not a competition with another school,”Network executive director Kristy Callaway told theNOW in an email, “but measuring your school againstbest practices and setting a course to address those
areas needing refinement andcelebrate areas of success.”
Some schools take multipleyears to go through the process,she said.
The Exemplary SchoolDesignation lasts for two years,after which schools re-evaluatetheir performance and apply fora renewal.
This year, 14 schools appliedfor the first time and five appliedfor renewals, Callaway said.
While most Arts SchoolsNetwork schools are located inthe U.S. and Canada, there aresome in the U.K., Europe andSingapore.
At Confederation Park,school-wide time and space are provided for students toparticipate in drama, visual arts, dance and music.
Through arts integration, students partner their “art”learning with subjects like language arts, math, socialresponsibility, science and social studies, creating lots ofhands-on learning experiences.
Students also work with artists-in-residence.“The Arts Schools Network is pleased to recognize
the achievements of this stellar school and congratu-lates Confederation Park Education Through the ArtsElementary School for its highest quality instructionin arts education,” stated the award’s official pressrelease.

When Six Nations meets WestWhen the Six Nations
Arrows Express comesWest, watch out.
The Ontario LacrosseAssociation junior A cham-pions won their third-everMinto Cup following a 14-8victory over the CoquitlamAdanacs in Game 6 of thebest-of-seven nationaljunior lacrosse champion-ship final in Langley onSaturday.
All three of Six Nation’sCanadian LacrosseAssociation national titleshave come in competitionsheld in British Columbia.
The last time was in 2007when the Arrows defeatedthe five-time Minto cham-pion Burnaby Lakers 19-8in a winner-take-all singlegame final at Queen’s ParkArena.
That surprisingly one-sided matchup before anational television audi-ence marked the final gamethe storied junior Lakerswould play in the Mintoafter 12 consecutive sea-sons in the national cham-pionship tournament.
It was also the first timecurrent Six Nations runnerBrendan Bomberry, theArrows’ star in Game 5 ofthe Minto, experienced aMinto Cup up close.
In 2007, Bomberrywas a ball boy for the SixNations’ national champi-onship club.
“I can’t really remem-ber, but (I remember) theleaders really pushedthe guys to make it hap-pen,” Bomberry said fol-lowing this season’s SixNations’ equally emphaticfour-game turnaroundafter falling behind 2-0
to Coquitlam early in theseries.
“(This season) I remem-ber that leadership is whatdrove us to get to this pointand it definitely paid off.”
Bomberry, a five-yearArrows’ junior who fin-ished seventh with 19points in overall Minto Cupscoring, includingthree goals andtwo assists in lastThursday’s 12-7win over the A’s,said the team nevergot down on itselfdespite dropping theopening two games of theMinto to the West Coastchamps.
The Arrows respondedin Game 3 with a head-spinning 19-5 win – out-scoring the junior Adanac’s7-2 in the first period, 8-3in the second and 4-0 inthe final frame – that must
have left shock waves inthe Coquitlam dressingroom for the remainder ofthe series.
In the following threegames of the series, SixNations served up at leastone big, single-periodscore to wrestle away athird championship ban-
ner in the remain-ing games.
In Game 4, itcame in a 5-1 mid-dle period sparkedby a hat trickby Six Nation’s
goal-scoring leader JoshJohnson, who topped theMinto Cup with 15 mark-ers.
In Game 5, the Arrowsbroke a 7-7 tie wide openin the final frame withBomberry’s hatty.
The end came for theAdanacs in Game 6 in thefinal period as well, as the
Arrows fired eight goalspast the Adanacs’ keep-ers, including the eventualgame-winning goal byHaodais Marracle, his sec-ond of the series, midwaythrough the third frame.
“We always have ananswer. We came out want-ing to make a statementto the whole CanadianLacrosse Association.That’s what he had to doand that’s what we did,”said Bombery.
Minto Cup MVP JohnnyPowless led all scorers witheight goals and 21 assists.
Six Nations keeperDoug Jamieson recordedthe Minto win in goal,playing all but 28 minutesof the series and posting aMinto Cup best .846 savepercentage.
“If you want to win this,you can’t shut down for aminute,” Bomberry said.
Nose for the net: The Six Nations Arrows, in black, showed a knack for scoring in bunches against Coquitlam, winning the last fourgames in a six-game series against the Adanacs at the 2014 Minto Cup junior A national lacrosse championships.

Amidst Burnaby Mountain Golf Course’s sprawling, manicured lawns andgardens bursting with blooms, is a wonderful hidden gem dining experience- a recent renovation to the building now adds to the already impressiveambiance. A month ago, the newly revamped Burnaby Mountain Clubhouseopened its doors as a new upscale casual restaurant and a stunning newlyrenovated banquet facility. Still in the works is a plan to update the coffeehouse dubbed The Bistro.The casual upscale restaurant Mulligans House, holds up to 60 people insideand 60 people on the stunning patio overlooking the putting green. Fromnearly every seat and from both its outdoor patios, you get a great viewof either the golf course or Squint Lake. The renovation now boasts a verywarmWest Coast architecture feel that is accented with beautiful wood andstunning light fixtures; giving the room a mixture of a traditional andmodern look to keep the atmosphere warm and inviting.“It really is quite beautiful here,” says Joanne Rombouts, with the City ofBurnaby. “Now that we are a casual restaurant, feel free to bring your children… you don’t have to be a golfer to come and enjoy the ambience and thegreat cuisine. Both the quality and creativity of the menu has gone decidedlyupscale.”A newWest Coast inspired menu has been unveiled with newadditions coming. The menu was inspired with a strong focus on fresh localingredients, including 100% AAA beef patties for the gourmet burgers,Free-Range chicken and eggs, and all organic bread products.The Bistro coffee house caters to golfers at the turn, families, and is alsoopen for breakfast. They offer a variety of sandwiches, wraps, baked goodsand snacks to grab and go. The Bistro holds 30 people inside and the patiooverlooking the 10th tee, holds 30 people outside.The banquet room has also been given a complete facelift – making it theperfect spot for a wedding or any special occasion.
