Pet store, activists go head to headKelley Hill sat silently behind the

two presentations made to council at itsMonday night meeting, regarding theretail sales of puppies, kittens and rab-bits. She held up a poster of her dead dog,including pictures of it as a puppy, andmore graphic photos of its health prob-lems and stitches after various surgeriesbefore the dog died last summer.

Hill, a supporter of Paws for Hope

Animal Foundation, said her purebreddog was purchased from Pet Habitat.Despite living to the age of nine, her dogShelby had insurmountable health issuessuch as hip dysplasia, a brain tumour andbladder infections. She purchased the dogfor $1,388, but her health-care costs endedup reaching $32,381.

She was there to make council aware ofthe consequences of purchasing from a petstore, she told the NOW.

At the meeting, animal advocates werein one corner and Burnaby pet store own-ers were in the other – both taking direct

shots at each other during their separatepresentations to council.

The second part of a proposed animalcontrol bylaw regarding the sales of pup-pies, kittens and rabbits in the city hasbeen a hot topic of discussion as councilprepares to make a decision on the retailsales of pets.

The city has been working on updat-ing its animal control bylaw for the lasttwo years, and in a recent staff report, itproposed to ban the retail sale of turtlesbut continue to allow the sale of kittens,puppies and sterilized rabbits.

Monday night’s first presentationto council on this issue was made byTom Peters, the owner of Pet Habitat’sMetrotown location. He said he sells about300 to 400 kittens a year, and about 25puppies in a month, which makes up 60per cent of his store’s income.

He said his store would no longer beable to operate if the city decided to banthe retail sales of pets.

“Anything proposed in terms of regula-tions, if it’s the betterment for an animal, Iwould like to comply,” he said.

Man stabbed with sword in attackOne man was taken to hospital

after he was reportedly stabbedwith a sword multiple times inthe back on Sunday night.

At 11 p.m. on Nov. 17, para-medics alerted Burnaby Mountiesthat a man had been stabbedand was being taken to RoyalColumbian Hospital. Upon pre-liminary investigation, officersdetermined the man had beenwalking with friends through theschoolyard at Cameron elementa-ry when another group appearedout of the bushes.

“Three people all of the sud-

den appeared out of nowhere –one brandishing a sword, anotherwith pepper spray,” said StaffSgt. Maj. John Buis.

The victim, along with threefriends, allegedly got into a fightwith the approaching group andthat’s when police believe one ofthe suspects used the sword tostab the victim twice in the back.

“They ran off, the suspects,(and) one of them allegedly letloose some pepper spray, aswell,” Buis said.

The injuries sustained by thevictim were non-life-threatening.He was in surgery Monday morn-ing and is expected to make a fullrecovery, according to Buis.

Burnaby RCMP do not believethis was a random attack andthere is evidence to suggest thetwo groups knew each other, Buissaid.

“There was an indication thatthe suspects knew the victim, andI can’t relate anymore than that,”he added.

The victim, whose name hasn’tbeen released, is 20 years old.Police haven’t determined theages of the suspects but believethey are all in their late teens orearly 20s, Buis said.

Burnaby RCMP are waitingto speak with the victim and hisfriends to gather more infor-mation about what took place

Sunday night. In the meantime,police have descriptions of thesuspects, but they are very pre-liminary, Buis said.

“Suspect 1 is described as amale carrying a sword, wearing awhite sweater, black track pantsand orange sneakers. Suspect 2was wearing a black jacket, darktuque, and possibly carrying pep-per spray, and suspect 3 waswearing all dark clothing,” hesaid.

All suspects are described asabout 5-9 in height.

At this time, police are unsurewhether the suspects, victim or hisfriends are Burnaby residents.

The manhunt for ille-gal dentist Tung Sheng(David) Wu is over, afterhe surrendered him-self to Toronto police onSaturday.

Wu,62,wasfoundguiltyof illegally practising den-

tistry in Metro Vancouver,including Burnaby, in aB.C. Supreme Court rulingin October. He avoided allcourt dates and was in hid-ing until Nov. 16, when heturned himself in. Wu wassentenced to three monthsjail time for being in con-tempt of court for his ille-gal dental practice.

He appeared in Torontocourt on Nov. 18 for abail hearing, according toa Toronto Police mediarelease. The same day, theCollege of Dental Surgeonsof B.C., which has beenpursuing Wu all this time,obtained an order to bringthe illegal dentist back tothis province.

“Dentists registeredwith the College of DentalSurgeons are required toput the health and safetyof their patients above allother considerations,” saidJerome Marburg, Collegeof Dental Surgeons of B.C.CEO and registrar, in astatement. “People likeMr. Wu are in business for

personal gain only, purelyfor profit, and put theirpatients’ health at risk.They are neither qualifiedto practise, nor do theyimplement the infectioncontrol and other safetymeasures required to pro-tect their patients.”

Peters said his store hashigh standards when itcomes to acquiring its ani-mals. He said if the issue isabout puppy mills – whichis a negative term used forplaces that breed puppiesen masse with little regardfor animal well-being –then puppy mills shouldbe addressed directly.

“I want the province toget involved with it becauseyou want to look at the truesource,” he told the NOW.“I’m just a retailer. Thesource is where the prob-lem is; if there’s a problem,teach them, make them bet-ter. Don’t just discouragethem completely.”

Lisa Hutcheon, fromthe Small Animal RescueSociety of B.C., was the sec-ond presentation made tocouncil on Monday night.

She took direct aim atMetrotown’s Pet Habitatstore when it comes tosmall animals being sold.

“Animals are oftenreferred to as stock and arenot regarded as the actualliving beings that they are,”she said, saying small petssell for $5 to $10. “They’reusing small animals to lurepeople in to make sales.… Small animals are used,really, by pet stores to sellmore expensive items.”

A four-hour seminarand distance-educationcourse is the only train-ing for pet store workers,and Hutcheon said it’s notenough.

If the city continues toallow small animal sales,

then the infrastructureshould be in place whenthose small animals areabandoned, Hutcheonstressed to council.

“Many cities won’t takein small animals, or they

have a cap on it,” she said,noting Burnaby’s B.C.SPCA shelters will onlytake in two small animalsat a time. “If the city wantsto continue to allow thesale of small animals, the

city must have a place forthem to go when they’re nolonger wanted. You can’trely on a group of volun-teers to continually cleanup the small animals. If itcan’t be done, then the sale

of small animals should bestopped.”

Council is expected tovote on the report at thenext council meeting onNov. 25.

A delegation from King

Ed Pet Centre is expectedto present to council onthe issue at next Monday’scouncil meeting, as well.

See an extended versionof this story online at www.burnabynow.com.

Marburg added that heanticipates B.C. sheriffswill soon be on their way toOntario to collect Wu, whowill then “appear in frontof the judge to answer forhis contempt and to servehis sentence.”

Last August, Wu wasfound in breach of a 2003court order prohibiting himfrom practising dentistry.A warrant was issued forhis arrest and a permanentinjunction was filed againsthim.

When a former patientlodged a complaint withthe College of DentalSurgeons of B.C. againstWu, it sparked the initialinvestigation in late May.Wu was operating an ille-gal dentistry practice out ofhis Burnaby home.

The dental college cov-ered costs for the privateinvestigation and courtproceedings against Wu,which has cost more than$140,000.

The passing last week of aformer B.C. labour leaderwas a reminder of how

much both the labour movementand the so-called “political left”have changed in this province.

Jack Munro was a colourfuland powerful leader of the mostpowerful union in this province.He led the IWA (the primaryforestry workers’ union) fordecades and was one of the mostinfluential labour or political fig-ures in the entire province.

Governments of all stripes(NDP and Social Credit) werewary of taking him on. A pro-longed strike in the forest indus-try could cripple the provincialeconomy, and Munro was mind-ful of the power he wielded.

His influence was wide with-in the B.C. Federation of Labour,and he was often seen as the faceof unionized labour, competingover time with other notablessuch as Len Guy, Art Gruntman,Jim Kinnaird, Art Kube and KenGeorgetti, to name just a few.

In those days (the 1970s tothe mid-1990s) organized labourwielded a major sword. At first,that sword was held by private

sector unions, but over timepublic sector unions wrenched itaway to become the main powerbloc in the labour movement.

That is one of the crucial dif-ferences that have evolved in theHouse of Labour. The days ofprivate sector union dominationare over, and therefore so are thedays of a private sector unionleader like Munro having hugeinfluence, either on labour orgovernment.

For years, private sectorstrikes, some of them quitelengthy, were regular eventsin all kinds of industries. Now,public sector strikes (or thethreat of them) are the maincharacteristic of any labour strifein this province.

Another change fromMunro’s heyday is the col-lapse of the forest industry. TheIWA is gone, and so are manymills that provided many com-munities with thriving localeconomies. The forest industry,and its unionized workforce,no longer has the political cloutit had when Munro was one ofindustry’s main players.

And then there is the politicalleft in B.C. For years, duringMunro’s time, the left was dom-inated by private sector unionleaders, but gradually, over time,their influence was matched andthen exceeded by social activists,environmental activists and pub-lic sector union leaders.

Moonlighting senators pull in the big bucksRight about the time you thought you

couldn’t get more disillusioned about theRed Chamber, it is revealed that nearlyhalf of Canada’s senators are moonlight-ing – and not for minimum wage.

According to The Globe and Mail,those hard-working senatorswere paid millions of dollarsfor burning the candle at bothends. That kind of a work ethicmight be something to admire had theynot also been paid lavish salaries suppos-edly toiling for the taxpayers of Canada.

Apparently Pamela Wallin served onthree boards and earned up to $999,923 inpay and stock options. She was suspend-ed earlier this month for erroneous travelclaims. It’s no wonder. It must be hardto keep track of what you’re billing and

whom you’re billing with sucha full calendar of board meet-ings. It’s a wonder these folkscan squeeze in Senate work.

Now, it’s not like we think senatorsshould be forced to work in little greycubicles, from 9 to 5 with a half-hour for

lunch, but surely there should be someguidelines about how much work outsideof the Senate is advisable. After all, sena-tors likely wouldn’t be asked to sit onprestigious boards if they didn’t have thetitle of senator. It adds a certain cachet.(Well, at least it did before the last scan-dal.)

One of the 46 out of 99 senators whohave other work is Larry Campbell, theformer mayor of Vancouver. Campbellis the top-earning Liberal, and he sits onthe boards of the Great Canadian Gaming

Corporation and Avidus ManagementGroup. According to The Globe and Mail,Campbell has made $396,516 in cash andup to $474,848 in stock options since 2008.He abstained from voting on one gam-bling bill and says he checks with theethics officer as required.

We don’t question Campbell’s integri-ty. But we doubt that taxpayers think theSenate is serving Canada’s best interestswhen nearly half of its appointees are col-lecting cash or cash in lieu from Canadiancorporations in their off hours.

Tree bylaw changes not neededDear Editor:

Re: Local tree advocate worries slow processleading to clearcutting, Burnaby NOW, Nov. 8.

Give me strength. With regard to the proposedtree bylaw, why has our mayor and council capitu-lated to the demands of a handful of busy bodies?There is no wholesale deforestation taking place inBurnaby. Any accelerated tree removal is the resultof people’s rejection of the bylaw.

It is incredible to believe that our mayor wouldbase such an overbearing and unnecessary bylawon a survey completed by only 158 people (.088 percent of the population.) Furthermore, the surveyitself was unregulated, badly flawed and biased in

its questions. Anyone could have completed thosesurveys, and multiple questionnaires could havebeen entered by anyone.

The first question that should have been asked is:Are you satisfied with the current tree bylaw? Thesecond question should have been: Are you willingto pay $70 to $500 for a tree permit?

All in all, this bylaw is not “reasonable,” and$2,000 to $10,000 fines fit the very definition of dra-conian.

As far as paying for the annual cost of maintain-ing two full-time tree police, that money will comeout of the pockets of Burnaby residents. As lone dis-senting councillor Sav Dhaliwal noted, people willbe less likely to plant trees in the future, the very

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Several key episodesin the last 20 years or soshow this shift.

During the 1983Solidarity crisis (broughton by the Social Creditgovernment’s punishingrestraint budget of thatyear), it was Munro whoessentially ended an esca-lating protest that washeaded to a provincewidegeneral strike.

Munro had no interestin taking private sectorunion workers off theirjobs to appease socialactivists itching to topplean elected government,and he made that veryclear. As a result, he wasvilified by many of thoseactivists, who viewedhis actions as a form ofbetrayal.

A decade or so later, aleft-wing government was

in power, but the environ-mental movement causedthe NDP administrationto back down on its for-est policies, constitutinga landmark win for thegreens in the party.

During GordonCampbell’s term in power,most of his oppositioncame from public sectorunions, many of whosecontracts he was tryingto tear up or change. Theprivate sector remainedrelatively quiet, and theenvironmental movementseemed to be biding itstime.

And, of course, therewas the NDP’s suddenreversal on the KinderMorgan pipeline project inthe last election campaign.It was done to appeasethe environmental move-ment, but the move hasrevealed a breach in the

party’s relationship withso-called blue collar work-ers (the ones championedfor so long by the likes ofMunro).

The NDP, the party ofthe left, is now almost shutout of the IWA’s old turf,as mills have closed andworkers have disappeared.Its support is more con-centrated in urban centres,and away from many ofthose blue-collar workersin resource industries.

One has to wonderwhat Jack Munro wouldmake of this ongoing shiftin the party and move-ment he was once so activein. I can’t see him likingwhere things seem to beheaded.

Keith Baldrey is chiefpolitical reporter for GlobalB.C. Email him at [email protected].


Left: Movement has shifted

opposite of tree protection.I also have a problem with the fact

that the general public was not invited tospeak at the meeting where this unwar-ranted and intrusive bylaw was proposed.I like trees as much as anyone, but I’ll bedamned if I want the way I enjoy my heav-ily taxed property dictated by a bunch ofpseudo environmentalists.

What is worse, the proposed bylawdoesn’t just deal with “iconic” trees butall trees, whether useful and wanted ornuisance and unwanted.

So, to quote Mayor Derek Corrigan,“Have courage, stand up for your com-munity.”

I am requesting that someone, any-one on council put forward a motion toreconsider the proposed tree bylaw until aproperly regulated and unbiased survey ofBurnaby residents is done.

Fire inappropriate teachersDear Editor:

Re: Teacher disciplined for using inap-propriate force, Burnaby NOW, Nov. 15.

I read about the teacher who was usinginappropriate discipline. I think that sheshould have been fired immediately formistreating her students.

I do remember the days when I was inelementary school. I remember the Grade

3 teacher that I had spanked me on thebehind with a wooden pad. I did cry,though I do think it was uncalled for.

Another time in Grade 4, where theteacher knocked down my text book,which I had up and was reading. She wasthe kind of teacher who was not liked byher students. I did see her when I was inmy senior years at secondary and wantedto confront her about what she had doneto me.

In Grade 7, the teacher was teaching forone semester. I remember being spankedby the teacher for being late. It was embar-rassing in front of some of the studentswho were in class at the time.

It was then that I wished I had the cour-age to stand up and report to the schoolprincipal to what was going on.

I don’t think in the ’70s that teacherswere allowed to strike a child and getaway with it.

I do know that if a teacher does strikea student in class, it can be reported andpossibly the teacher would be terminatedfrom teaching.

I also remember reading in the ’70sabout a teacher in elementary school whohad fingered a student. The young girltold her parents about what happened.The teacher was fired from teaching andwas asked to leave town.

I wanted to share my experience asto what happened to me in elementaryschool and to let students know that theycan report incidents, which may lead totermination.

The city is moving for-ward with its secondarysuites program, and a newbusiness licence is beingcreated as a result.

Burnaby is one of thelast in Metro Vancouver tomove ahead with legaliz-ing secondary suites, andin the meantime city staffis preparing a home rentalbusiness licence to coincidewith the program’s roll-out.

The licence will treatsecondary suites where theowner does not live on siteas a business.

“In order to implement

the adopted approach, it isnecessary to create a newbylaw that requires a non-resident owner(s) of dwell-ings with secondary suitesto obtain a home rentalbusiness licence,” LouPelletier, director of plan-ning and building, states ina report to council.

The bylaw being pre-pared by staff is expected toinclude several provisions,such as recommended feesfor licensing and renewal.

Every homeowner witha secondary suite who doesnot live on site will haveto get a home rental busi-ness licence and renew itannually.

The licence will requirethe property owner to hirea property manager, whowill manage the tenants andaddress any complaints,according to the report.

The new licence will

ensure every owner keepsthe site in good condition.It will also have detailedprovisions regarding appli-cation requirements, per-mit issuance and renewal,terms and applicability,suspensions, revocations,and penalties.

The secondary suiteamendments will be up forpublic input at an upcom-ing hearing at city hall onNov. 26, starting at 7 p.m.

City moves ahead withsecondary suite programOwners whodon’t live on sitewill need a rentalbusiness licenceStefania Secciastaff reporter

Utility rates risingThe city’s waterworks and sewer rates are on the

increase to keep up with rising operation costs and oldinfrastructure.

Council approved a 5.5 per cent increase for Burnaby’s2014 sanitary sewer and waterworks utility rates at itsNov. 18 meeting.

“The budget reflects a general utility rate increase of 5.5per cent to ensure that the sanitary sewer utility continuesto be self-supporting,” said Denise Jorgenson, director offinance, in her report to council. “The expenditure bud-get increases are necessary to cover sewer maintenancerequirements, higher costs of aging infrastructure replace-ment, and the cost of sewage and storm water treatmentservices provided by Greater Vancouver Sewerage andDrainage District.”

Metro Vancouver treats about one billion litres ofwastewater per day at five treatment plants. Metro Van’s2014 projected cost was set to increase by 3.9 per cent, tomore than $18 million.

For a single-family dwelling, the sewer bill will increaseby $26.73 to $512.75 (if payment is made by the due date).For waterworks, a single-family home bill will increase by$28.40 to $544.87 if payment is made before the due date.

Burnaby wants to retain its heritageand history, and it intends to do sobook by book.

Recently, city council approved $50,000from its gaming funds to go towardupgrading Burnaby’s heritage websiteand a book scanning pilot project. Theproject came from a partnership between

the planning andarchives departments,the Burnaby VillageMuseum and thecommunity heritagecommission.

With upgradesplanned for theheritage website, it isexpected to providespace to test out a

book-scanning pilot project involving dig-itizing historical books, according to LisaCodd, Burnaby Village Museum curator.

“I think it is taking a resource we haveand giving more access to it,” Codd toldthe Burnaby NOW. “And as Burnaby’smuseum, providing access to historicalinformation about Burnaby is key to whatwe do.”

The project was the brainchild ofworking groups involved in preservingthe city’s history through other projects,and digitizing certain books was the nextlogical step.

“We thought it would be nice to takesome of the key books about Burnaby andadd another layer of access, which wouldbe to actually make digital copies of themand make them available online,” Coddsaid.

Nine books have been chosen forthe pilot project: History of Burnaby, byGeorge Green (1952); Bygones of Burnaby,by Pixie McGeachie (1975); Pioneer Tales,by Pixie McGeachie (1987); Follow thatFire, by Douglas Penn (1997); Land ofPromise – Robert Burnaby Letters, by PixieMcGeachie and Anne Burnaby McLeod(2002); Deer Lake Park Heritage ResourceInventory (1998) and Burnaby CentennialAnthology (1994), by the City of Burnaby;In the Shadow by the Sea – History of Barnet,by Harry Pride (2004); and Life with theMoore Family of Hart House, by HarryPride (2002).

The books were chosen because oftheir particular importance to Burnaby.But the city also owns the copyrights toeight of the books, while the last book’scopyrights have expired.

“The nine we chose are the ones

that have high research value related toBurnaby,” Codd said. “They’re all booksabout Burnaby. While technology certain-ly exists to digitize books, obviously, wecan’t legally go willy nilly scanning booksand putting them online.”

To avoid destruction of the histori-cal texts, Codd said they will be scannedthrough a special process – this way everyword will be searchable online.

“In some cases they’re books that areout of publication, and we don’t wantto destroy the actual copy of the book,”she added. “The technology we’ll use forscanning involves doing a high-resolutionscan of the page, and then that is convert-

ed into a PDF, and it’s also run throughoptical character recognition.”

That means each word will be search-able. The scanning will be done by a thirdparty with the means to scan the pages inthis advanced way. The third party willnot be chosen until the new year whenthe project is expected to move forward.

If the project proves popular, Coddsaid books could be added to the list inthe future.

“Anyone who has done research canappreciate how convenient this will be,”she noted.

Arilea Sill, city archivist, agreed withCodd in that the books will be far more

accessible.“Some of the early (books) didn’t have

indexes or a comprehensive table of con-tents,” she told the NOW. “This (project)makes information far more accessible.I’m really excited about it.”

According to Sill, the project is allabout expanding the access to historicalinformation.

“I think it is (important) to makeinformation more accessible,” she added.“Some of this material is no longer inprint, or not that many copies are leftavailable. This enables researchers andpublic citizens to have direct access intohistory.”

Homelessness videodebuted on YouTube

The Burnaby Task Force onHomelessness has launched a new videoencouraging people to get involved incommunity-based efforts toaddress poverty and homelessnessin the city.

The 11-minute video, a partner-ship between the Burnaby Boardof Trade and the non-profit SocialPlanning and Research Council ofB.C., was posted on YouTube onNov. 13.

“Poverty is the leading cause of home-lessness impacting citizens, regardless ofage, gender or culture. Eighty percent of

people struggling with homelessness arenot visible because they are temporar-ily staying with friends or family,” saidWanda Mulholland, community develop-ment coordinator for the task force.

The video features Burnaby figures,such as Coun. Paul McDonell,Susan Papadionissou and PaulHolden from the Burnaby Boardof Trade; and Staff Sgt. Maj. JohnBuis of the Burnaby RCMP.

The video highlights the workof the Burnaby Task Force on

Homelessness and offers information onhow people can get involved.

MOTORING

Dear Tom and Ray:I have a 2007 Honda Fit.

A couple of years ago, I gota recall notice that said therewas a defect in a part in thedoor and that the Fit mightcatch fire because of it. A fixwas in the works, but Hondasuggested that Fit ownersnot park their vehicles insidethe garage until after the partwas replaced. Interestingly,the fires were caused by watergetting into the door when

it rains – outdoors – whereHonda wanted us to parkour Fits. Ignoring the factthat the fires are caused byrain, I parked my Fit outsideuntil I got the warranty workdone to fix the problem. Lastweek, I got another letter fromHonda stating (ahem) thatthe first fix didn’t work quiteas planned and that a new fixwill be rolled out soon. In themeantime, they suggested that2007 Fit owners not park theirvehicles in the garage, sincethey might catch fire. Theysaid to park them outside,where, presumably, the raincan get in and cause them to… catch fire. My question is,even after this second fix forthe same issue, should I everpark this vehicle inside mygarage again, ever? What ifthe second fix doesn’t work

either? Just sign me …– Nervous

TOM: Yeah, that is aconundrum, isn’t it? Hondadid, in fact, recall some140,000 2007 and 2008 Fitsbecause water could getinside the door when thewindow is open, work itsway down and corrode themaster window switch.RAY: Window motorsrequire a lot of electricityin order to lift that heavypiece of glass … and doit in less time than, say, ittakes my brother to get towork in the morning. Andsince that master switchcontrols all of the car’s win-dow motors, there’s a tonof juice coming into it. Soif the switch corrodes andshorts out, it could poten-tially lead to an unplanned

and unwanted marshmal-low roast.TOM: When Honda firstrecalled the cars for thisproblem, they fixed it byputting some plastic mate-rial around the masterswitch, which they thensealed up with tape. Whatthey discovered later wasthat the tape wasn’t doingthe job and could still letwater in, leading to corro-sion and the above-men-tioned marshmallows.RAY: So now they’vedecided to just replacethe switch itself with anupgraded and redesignedswitch – presumably theone they started usingafter 2008, about which weknow of no complaints.TOM: Of course, theydidn’t have 140,000 of these

new switches on the shelf,so what they want to do isinspect your Fit and lookfor signs of corrosion onyour switch. If they seeany, they’ll replace theswitch right away. But ifthere’s no sign of corro-sion, they’ll ask you to waituntil they can make moreswitches, which probablywill be a matter of months.RAY: So until you get thenew switch, your Fit is stilltechnically vulnerable tothis corrosion and fire syn-drome. So if they ask youto wait, I would continueparking the car outside.TOM: Yeah, I definitelywould not park it in yourgarage, Nervous, unlessthree other conditionsexist: (1) The garage isdetached from your house,

(2) you have replacementcost insurance coverageon it, and (3) you’ve beenwanting to redo the garageanyway.RAY: Actually, Honda saysthat rain or other liquidscan get inside the door onlywhen the window is open.So it shouldn’t get worse ifit’s parked outside with thewindows rolled up.TOM: But if the switch hasbegun to corrode, obvious-ly you don’t want to riskparking it in a structurethat’s attached to wherepeople sleep.RAY: And I wouldn’t leaveany priceless Renaissancepaintings in the car untilyou get it fixed, either.Good luck, Nervous.

For those of you fol-lowing the anti-sharkfin lobby, you may

be interested to hearthat Burnaby’s very ownClaudia Li is expandingher horizons. Li foundedShark Truth, a non-profitgroup that aims to stopthe slaughter of sharksfor their fins. Now she’sstarting a new group: thehua foundation, which islaunching an interculturalfood literacy program witha seasonal Asian produceguide, cooking workshopsthat span generations, andinformation on healthysustainable and culturallyappropriate food sources.The idea behind the foun-dation is to challenge thestereotype that Chineseculture and environmen-tal protection are mutu-ally exclusive. For moreinformation on the new

foundation, go to www.huafoundation.org.

Award finalistKudos are in order

for the BurnabyNeighbourhood House.The local neighbourhoodhouse (which recentlydropped “south” fromits name) was nominatedas a finalist for a 2013Safe Harbour ChampionsAward in the communityorganizer category. SafeHarbour is an interestingprogram we’ve featuredin the past. It’s a bit likeBlock Watch for businessesbut with an anti-racisttwist. Businesses sign upand learn how to be “safeharbours” from discrimi-nation, and they displaya Safe Harbour decal intheir door or window. TheBurnaby NeighbourhoodHouse is a Safe Harbourmember and communityorganizer, which meansthey provide diversitytraining for businesses oragencies that sign up forthe program. But it’s theneighbourhood house’swork beyond Safe Harbourthat inspired the nomina-

tion. For instance, there’sthe long-standing partner-ship with the BurnabyIntercultural PlanningTable, a recent mural proj-ect at the Marlboroughdaycare, the regularSharing Cultures dinners,and ongoing training forstaff and volunteers onhow to create a spacethat’s welcoming andinclusive. The winners willbe announced on Nov. 19after NOW deadlines.

SECTION COORDINATOR Tom Berridge, 604-444-3022 • [email protected]

Panthers take high road to first B.C.s

The timing was everything forthe Moscrop Panthers girls’ vol-leyball team.

The first-year senior WestBurnaby school team defeatedNorth Shore champion WestVancouver in a marathon five-setvictory at Moscrop to qualify forits first-ever B.C. quad A pro-vincial girls’ volleyball champion-ships.

Moscrop came from behindtwice in the two hour and 15-minute match to force a tiebreakbefore pulling out a 15-11 win inthe fifth set over a much tallerWest Van side in the semifinals ofthe Lower Mainland girls’ cham-pionship on Friday.

The win gave the Panthers oneof three Mainland berths into theprovincials. A fourth and fifthberth will be decided on wildcards later in the North Shore thisweek.

“We wanted to play our bestand put it out on the floor. It’s agreat feeling,” said Moscrop cap-tain Lauren Hum. “(North Shore)is always great competition andwe want to play the best. It’s excit-ing.”

Moscrop dropped a close,opening first set 28-26, but cameback to win the second set 25-20on the back of a seven-point ser-vice run by Elianna Guo midwayin the match.

The two teams traded the nexttwo games, with the Panthersforcing a fifth and final set with a25-15 win in the fourth.

In the tiebreak, West Vanwent on a late rally to lead 8-7at the changeover, but ErnestineTiamzon got Moscrop back ontrack with a timely kill.

Aided by a service ace byNatalie Yu and a back-court kill byjunior Isabella Cheung, Moscrop

took a 13-9 lead. Tiamzon finishedoff the comeback with a kill and afinal service winner to win 3-2 andadvance to the Mainlandfinal against Argyle.

“We’re shorter, so wehave to make up for it withother parts of our game,like digging and not lettingthe ball hit the ground,”said Hum. “In the end, it’s just agame, but it was really exciting,like we could win this, this could

really happen.”But in the final, Moscrop lost

Tiamzon after an opening 29-27loss in the opening set andnever looked like a threatafter that, losing to Argylein straight sets.

Without the presenceof their power hitter onthe court, the confidence

and purpose in the Panthers’ playappeared to vanish, despite thebest efforts of Cheung to pick up

the slack. Moscrop dropped thefinal two sets 25-12, 25-16 to finishas the No. 2 Mainland seed to theprovincials.

“We accomplished our goal. Ifwe could have won, it would havebeen that little bit extra,” Humadded.

Knights outsted byNo. 1 Mt. Douglas

It was a tough end to aneven rougher season for theSt. Thomas More Knights.

The Knights wereknocked out of the B.C.high school AAA varsityfootball playoffs followinga 56-24 loss to the defend-ing two-time provincialchampion Mt. DouglasRams on Friday.

STM’s converted quar-terback Malcolm Lee sol-diered through with anoth-er strong game, throwingfor 120 yards, including a70-yard touchdown striketo J.J. DesLauriers, andrushing for 170 yards onthe ground.

The Knights defensivesecondary also showedwell with Drew Belgraveand Kevin Marshall leadingthe team with eight tacklesapiece. Jordan Mckenzie

had six tackles and twoquarterback sacks, whileAnthony Carteri addedfive individual stops.

But making up for theloss of all-purpose backJalen Jana and quarter-back Chase Malcolm forall or part of the seasonwas a trial at times for theKnights.

“When you look at theyear as a whole, consider-ing we didn’t have Jalenand Chase, it was a snake-bitten year, but when youhad that many guys outand still have a season likewe did, it was a good year,”said Kully of the team’s 8-4year. “There were a lot oflife lessons learned fromthis year about what thefuture holds, and I’m proudof how we competed.”
