One man is dead following a shooting out-side of a Brentwood condo late Wednesdaynight.
Burnaby RCMP responded to calls of shotsfired in the 2000 block of Rosser Avenue justoff Lougheed Highway near Brentwood TownCentre around 10:30 p.m. Upon arrival, officersfound a body lying on the ground next to ablack car, according to a media release fromhomicide police.
The man, identified as 20-year-old AladdinRamadan, was declared dead at the scene, andBurnaby RCMP quickly notified the IntegratedHomicide Investigation Team, which is nowleading the investigation.
Not much is known about the shooting atthis time, but investigators believe it was tar-geted and are trying to determine a motive.
Police are now looking for three suspectswho fled the scene southbound on RosserAvenue in a smaller, silver or blue compactvehicle.
The driver is described as a Persian manwith a short haircut, shaved on the side withsideburns. He appeared clean-cut and waswearing dark clothing.
Municipal managers pay hikes draw fireMore than a dozen Lower Mainland
municipalities, including Burnaby, havecome under fire following the release ofa report highlighting a disparity in wageincreases between local governments andthe B.C. Liberals.
The report compiled by Ernst &Young, commissioned by the provincialgovernment and leaked by the Canadian
Taxpayers Federation notes that unionwages for city workers across B.C. wentup 38 per cent between 2001 and 2012,compared to the B.C. governments 19 percent raise for public service employees. Italso cites municipal data from 2011 high-lighting the salaries of local city managersthat outpace the pay of provincial deputyministers.
At the time, Burnaby city manager BobMoncurs pay was on par with the averagedeputy ministers salary of about $230,000.
In the years since, hiswage cleared $250,000,making him the highest paid member atBurnaby city hall.
Moncur was one of 19 Burnaby employ-ees to makemore than $150,000 in 2013. ButCoun. Dan Johnston, who chairs the citysfinance and civic development committee,said the high wages for executive employ-ees are justified.
If theres an increase, its usually basedon merit, he said, noting pay raises comeswith additional responsibility.
The other thing is, some of the higherwages are firefighters, and for the mostpart, theyre arbitrated salaries, so we donthave a lot of say. They come in with arequest, the mediator makes a decision andthats what we pay them.
However, Burnaby First mayoral can-didate Daren Hancott said he thinks itstime municipal governments take a seriouslook at the level of increases issued to cityworkers.
City shootingwas targeted
On the case: Homicide investigators were on the scene of a fatal shooting at 2077 Rosser Ave. Wednesday night at around 10:30p.m.. Burnaby RCMP went to the area following reports of shots fired and discovered the victim dead and lying in the street.

On theloose:Cub Scoutswere on handto help releasetiny salmoninto GuichonCreek at BCITMonday.
Formorephotos,scanwithLayaror go towww.royalcityrecord.com
After five decades in darkness, BurnabysGuichon Creek may finally see the light ofday, thanks to restoration efforts at BCIT.
On Monday, BCIT announced that thecreek would be daylighted in stages as thecampus undergoes redevelopment, and thefirst phase may be as early as next year.
Youre talking about excavating a partof the creek and literally bringing it back inthe light, said Mark Angelo, a retired BCITinstructor and founder of World Rivers Day.Its kind of the epitome of river restoration inmany ways.
Angelo was on campus for Mondaysannouncement, along with BCIT presidentKathy Kinloch and B.C.s Lt.-Gov. Judith
Guichon. (The creek is one of two in theprovince named after the Guichons, a pioneerfamily with ranching and farming roots goingback to the 1800s.) The three released tinysalmon into the water, with help from a CubScouts group, to mark the news and highlightWorld Rivers Day, coming up this weekendin Burnaby.
Angelo was heavily involved in restoringthe upper reaches of Guichon, but a 700-metrestretch downstream still runs underground,beneath the campus. If BCIT can connect thetwo sections by bringing the culverted sectionout from the underground, salmon may beable to return to the upper waters and spawnright on campus.
When Angelo first started teaching at BCITdecades ago, elderly residents would tell himstories of catching huge salmon and trout in
Guichon Creek before it was culverted andburied.
In many ways, Guichon is the story of thelittle creek that could. The waterway was apolluted and lifeless drainage channel whenAngelo started teaching at BCIT about 40 yearsago. BCIT led the charge, and with help fromits staff, students, the City of Burnaby andvarious groups, the upper area was restoredto a natural state. Local residents often walkalong the creek now, and students use it as aliving lab.
While Guichon has become a stellar exam-ple of waterway restoration, Angelo hopes therest of the creek will become just as healthy,but the full daylighting process will likely takeseveral years.

Citys pipeline resolution fails at UBCM
The City of Burnabys anti-pipeline resolution was narrow-ly defeated at the Union of B.C.Municipalities annual conferencein Whistler Thursday morning.
Burnaby put forward a com-
prehensive pipeline and energytransport plan, calling on theUBCM to oppose the KinderMorgan expansion project, butthe resolution was defeated 50.7per cent to 49.3 per cent.
Mayor Derek Corrigan saidit was disappointing but not adecisive defeat.
It was very, very close, hesaid on the phone from Whistler.I dont think anyone can takegreat pride in having defeatedit.
According to Corrigan, theresolution was rejected becauseof an urban-rural divide, in whichmunicipalities like Burnaby
are out-numbered two to one.Corrigan said rural politicianswere worried that if they opposedthe pipeline, they would get railcars carrying oil coming throughtheir communities as a result.
They didnt want that, so it

6 Friday, September 26, 2014 Burnaby NOW
Today, for absolutely nocharge, Im going to givesome advice to all thosefolks who are running for localoffice this November.
Like all free advice, its prob-ably worth what you paid for it.
I may not be qualified to offerany words of wisdom, consid-ering Ive never run for officemyself and that I have orderedmy friends and loved ones tohave me committed if I attemptto do so. Ive seen too manycampaigns to think its muchfun.
On the other hand, Ive beento more council meetings thanmost mayors in this province,Ive seen dozens of politiciansrise and fall and sometimes riseagain, and Ive watched cam-paigns with the glee and frustra-tion that most people save up forplayoff season. If nothing else,consider this a primer on how toget my vote. Every vote counts,they say.! I dont care that you are ahappy fuzzy person: The profilesof most politicians, and this goesright to the top, aim at reassur-ing us that they just love fam-
ilies and low taxes and a goodeconomy. Congratulations. Youlike the stuff that LITERALLYEVERY OTHER HUMANBEING LIKES! Who cares?
I know theres some psycho-logical stuff at work, that thiscan be part of the Aw shucks,Im just an average Jane-or-Joeroutine. I dont care. Ive seen ittoo many times. Weve all seen ittoo many times. Stop telling usyoure in favour of things beinggood. So are we. This leads us tomy second point.!Make specific promises: I likefamilies! says every politiciansince the Greeks were pickingwhich bearded toga-wearer wasgetting which job. Thats cool,buddy. But what are you goingto do about that? Are you goingto cut taxes on playgroundequipment and school clothes?Are you going to raise taxes tobuild more parks and ice rinks?How much are you gonna raisethem? Anything else youve gotplanned?
We see too many candidatesat the local level who run on arecord of being heavily involvedin the community but seem-ingly have no clear plans orideas. Your list of promises canbe short (Cut taxes!) or long(Heres my four-year plan. Ifyoull turn to appendix two, sec-tion seven ...) but please, tellme you want to run so you canactually do something.! Tell me true stories: Now

Playing hide and seekwith your informationA document that has the title: A Step
Backwards: Report Card on GovernmentsAccess to Information Responses doesntexactly inspire trust in the B.C. govern-ments commitment to transparency. Infact, it should, and does, trigger a lot ofserious questions.
Information and PrivacyCommissioner ElizabethDenhams report on how theB.C. government is (or more accurately,is not) fulfilling thousands of informa-tion requests every year paints a startlingpicture of delay tactics, obstruction and
a serious lack of adherence to the basicprinciples of freedom of information.
The report says that on-time accessto information requests in the past twoyears have dropped from 93 per cent to74 per cent. The four government minis-
tries with the lowest on-timerates were: Justice, 72 per cent;Energy and Mines, 66 percent; Jobs, Tourism and Skills
Training, 65 per cent; and Ministry ofChildren and Family Development, 52per cent. The differences in departmentalnumbers is informative, but what it tells
us on a larger scale is that almost everydepartment is trying to keep informationhidden.
The media has always faced stonewall-ing bureaucrats and politicians who hidebehind procedures and paperwork. It isgovernments first line of defense whenthe media looks for information thatcould make the government look bad.
But nowadays, as the privacy com-missioner said, Im concerned that itsa trend and the issues are systemic. Itsthe law and one-in-four requests areresponded to outside of the legal limits,
and I think thats a serious problem forthe public.
We agree.But is a wrist-slapping report going to
stop the stonewalling? We think not. Ifthe provincial government cared about itsprevious commitments to transparency itwould have laid down the law internally.It hasnt.
We think its time to inflict the samedeterrents on government ministriesthat they inflict on citizens: If they missdeadlines, fine them. And put the moneytowards school supplies.
Advice for councilcandidates
Put conspiracy theories awayDear Editor:
Re: Protesters help terrorism, Letters to the Editor,Burnaby NOW, Sept. 24.
I dont know how Mr. Eckardt arrived at thislatest conspiracy theory, regarding anti-pipelineprotesters assisting terrorism, however it really isoutside the box. It sounds like this should be playedon Jesse Venturas Conspiracy Theories or a reallygood topic for Fox TV.
We all now know Mr. Eckardts views on envi-ronmentalists, as cave-dwelling Neanderthals, andnow we are being presented with his new neo-conscare tactics and conspiracy theories. Will this neverend? It seems to be outside his grasp to see thatthere are other points of view out there besides his
own and that they are not out to ruin the world.One thing we never hear about from these folks
is how much money is being put into convincingthe public that there are really no environmentalconcerns. Yep, these are funded by American cor-porations and their lobbying efforts. People outsideof our borders. What a breaking story.
Clean air, clean water and non-polluting energyshould be the number 1 concerns going forward.These are life concerns for future generations.

been working hard, although for who orfor what Im not sure. In her recent news-letter, we read that she joined over 200Korean-Canadians in Ottawa, as well asthe president of the Republic of Korea forsomething to do with a free trade agree-ment.
She didnt say what that was all about,but could it be a part of the same deal thatHarper signedwith China, the FIPA deal inwhich China gains the right to sue Canadaif any of its trade investments should failto profit? Wouldnt that be a great joke onall her constituents? Our MLA was thereto witness the sellout of Canada. But itmight be a great deal for her native land ofKorea. Is that all she cares (about)?
She also joined in on festivities inSurrey-Newton as the Kerala Communitycelebrated Onam, marking the commem-oration of Vamana Avatara of Vishnuand the subsequent homecoming of themythical King Mahaball. And if you dontknow what thats all about, then obviouslyyoure just not in with the in-crowd. And ifyou wonder what good it did for her con-stituents, well, so do I. But at least she onlyhad to go to Surrey for the event.
On Sept. 9, I was finally able to havean appointment with her to discuss theproblem of fires caused by smart metersin B.C., fires which go unrecorded by theprovincial fire commissioner. She prom-ised to meet with Sharon Noble of theAnti-Smartmeter Coalition at the end ofOctober. But there wasnt a word aboutsmart meters in her newsletter.
When I phoned her office and askedwhy not, her assistant told me that she
(Shin) couldnt mention every little thing.As if house fires are a little thing.
In all fairness, we hear that shes alsoat work on the finance and governmentservices committee.
When she gets back to the legislature,shes compelled and inspired to call foraction.
Its nice to have an MLA whos readyfor action, but now how about some actionon the smart meter situation?

Green supporter was rightDear Editor:
Re: In Defence of Burnaby Greens,Opinion, Burnaby NOW, Sept. 12.
Mr. Friesen exposes Mr. Melynk forhis not credible comments (Wait forimplosion, Letters to the editor, BurnabyNOW, Sept. 3). I praise Mr. Friesen foradvising the readers of the Burnaby NOW.I believe Mr. Melynk is trying to place anunfounded wedge between Greens andthe Burnaby First Coalition that has nomerit.
I am more focused on the commentsMr. Friesen has mentioned on the dredg-ing of Burnaby Lake and in specific thelack of, and bungling of the process,resulting in a wasted costs to the taxpay-ers, in millions. If only Doreen Lawsonwas here as councillor to knock somesense into, as Mr. Friesen calls our green-washed council.
I would suggest that the readers take awalk to Burnaby Lake by Piper Spit, justdown from the Nature House, and see themess for yourself. Salmon will be strug-gling to get into Eagle Creek this fall.

Obviously, we want workers to havecompetitive wages and be able to affordtheir houses and vehicles and to live inthe city, he said, (but) I think sometimesthe increases may be out of line with theprivate sector and not every year shouldpeople expect increases, depending on theeconomy.
Part of the BFCs platform is a pledgeto not increase taxes for three years in thecity. Supporters of the coalition have previ-ously accused Burnabys current councilof unnecessarily raising property taxes inrecent years, and Jordan Bateman theB.C. director of the Canadian Taxpayers
Federation has publicly suggest-ed the report confirms the CTFsbeliefs that citizens are overtaxed.
If we dont need the moneyand service levels arent increas-ing, all were doing is increas-ing taxes and increasing wages,said Hancott. Our goal is to holdtaxes, look at waste, plan for thefuture and do more with less.
Johnston, however, noted thatproperty tax is the only levy thecity can use unlike the B.C. gov-ernment and that property taxesgo toward every expenditure of the city,not just wages.
The province is going to criti-cize property tax because its nota tax that they collect, he said.They dont give municipalities alot of other options on how theycan collect tax we dont havethe ability to collect other types oftaxes such as sales taxes or differ-ent levies.
Our methodology of raisingfunds is property tax, so I dontthink thats a fair comparison atall.
Ultimately, Johnston echoedsentiments from Metro Vancouver thepolitical body that encompasses 24 munici-
palities which released a statement criti-cizing the accuracy of the study.
I dont have a lot of faith in it, saidJohnston. I dont think its really com-parable from municipality to municipal-ity because the amounts paid by differentmunicipalities are all over the map.
But Hancott said the BFC, if electedthis November, will look further into howfunds are distributed at city hall in an effortto save money for Burnaby taxpayers.
Weve committed to do core reviews ofall departments, all positions at Burnaby,and quite frankly, Im sure we can findsavings.

Homicide investigators werecalled to the city when 46-year-old Jahanbakhsh Meshkati wasshot near Robert Burnaby Parkon Aug. 10. Details are still lim-ited on this fatal shooting, butpolice believe it was targeted.Meshkati had just recently movedto Burnaby from Toronto.
Less than two months earlier,a 51-year-old man was shot whilesitting in his car in the parking lot
at Brentwood Town Centre nearthe McDonalds. The victim, whoinvestigators said was targeted,suffered minor injuries and wasreleased from hospital shortlyafter. About three weeks later,Burnaby RCMP announced inves-tigators had arrested 29-year-oldTrevor Michael Scott Taylor. Hewas charged with several offencesincluding aggravated assault.
OnApril 20,Mounties respond-ed to reports of shots fired in the4400 block of Carleton Avenue.While several spent bullet casingswere found outside of a homein the area, a victim was neverfound.
At the beginning of the year,Burnaby RCMP were tasked
with dealing with two relativelyhigh-profile shootings in SouthBurnaby.
The first was on Jan. 7 insidethe Cactus Club restaurant onKingsway near Metrotown. Thebrazen, midday shooting sent oneman to hospital. Investigatorswith the Burnaby RCMPs seriouscrime unit determined the shoot-ing was gang-related and the vic-tim was the intended target. Nobystanders were injured in thepublic shooting.
About one week later, onJan. 15, Mounties were called toa Chinese restaurant on CanadaWay near Sperling Avenue aftersomeone shot several rounds intoa car parked outside the restau-
rant. Police said the owner ofthe car a black, newer modelBMW was the target and is well-known to police. No one was inthe car at the time and no injurieswere reported.
Including these six shootings,there have been about 1,005 vio-lent incidents reported betweenJanuary and August this year,which is slightly higher thanthe same time period last year,according to Burnaby RCMP.
In total, there were 1,423 vio-lent incidents in Burnaby in 2013,which averages to about 118 inci-dents each month compared toabout 125 per month betweenJanuary and August, according tostatistics provided by the Burnaby
RCMP.While the stats to date could
indicate a rise in violent crime inthe city, that wont be confirmeduntil the end of the year.
Four years ago, Burnaby expe-rienced the highest number ofviolent incidents in recent historywith 1,958 reported. Since then,the rate has been on a steadydecline 1,858 in 2011, 1,593 in2012 and 1,423 in 2013.

Thats a lot of pop bottles
Its been five years in the making, butthe Burnaby Neighbourhood House isfinally celebrating the official opening ofthe new Gilpin daycare.
Desperate parents spearheaded theproject, got the Burnaby NeighbourhoodHouse on board and collected thousandsof dollars worth of pop bottles to help payfor the three portables that now sit on thegrounds of Gilpin Elementary.
It was a lot of hard work, a lot of popbottles collected. There were a lot of con-tributors, but it was mostly parents anddonors in the community, said AntoniaBeck, executive director of the BurnabyNeighbourhood House.
The parents who brought it forwarddont even need daycare anymore, Beckadded.
They had school-aged kids. Some ofthem couldnt go to work because theyhad no child care, and there wasnt any

child-care operator in the Gilpin area. Theyapproached the neighbourhood house tosee if we could help them.
The project cost $480,000, and Beckestimated about half of that was raisedby parents. But the fundraising isnt over Beck said the neighbourhood house hadto dip into its reserves to fund the projectand is about $200,000 short. Shes hopingthe provincial government will pitch in.
That daycare is filling a very impor-tant need, but it will be filling it for manyyears, she said. It would be really nice
if the province came forward with somefunding.
The daycare was up and running in thespring, but the grand opening was post-poned until Wednesday because of theteachers strike.
The daycare runs a before- and after-school-care program for kids in kinder-garten up to Grade 7. Gilpins maximumcapacity is 40, and the daycare is alreadyfull with a waiting list. The school districthelped by allowing the neighbourhoodhouse to use some classroom space whilepeople fundraised for the portables.

Daycare: More money still needed
was a very jealous kind of response, hesaid.
Corrigan also said Kinder Morgan rep-resentatives were lobbying at the UBCM,hosting parties and buying drinks, tryingto persuade the votes to go their way.
Kinder Morgan wants to twin theTrans Mountain pipeline, which runsoil from Alberta to Burnaby. The proj-ect, now under review by the NationalEnergy Board, would mean expanding theBurnaby Mountain tank farm, buildinga new pipeline in the city and increasingtanker traffic at the Westridge MarineTerminal, where tankers fill up with crudein the Burrard Inlet.
Burnabys resolution characterized theexpansion as a project rife with risk andcalled on the UBCM to oppose the project.The second main point in the resolutioncalled on the provincial and federal gov-ernments to consult with local govern-
ments, First Nations and the public tocome up with a comprehensive pipelineand energy transport plan that includesfunding for emergency response.
The defeat marks the second recentstumbling block Burnaby has hit in itscampaign to stop the multi-billion-dollarexpansion.
Just last week, the B.C. Supreme Courtrejected Burnabys bid for an injunction tostop Kinder Morgans survey work in theBurnaby Mountain conservation area, acity-owned park. Kinder Morgan, mean-while, is waiting on the National EnergyBoard for its request for a Section 73 orderthat would force the city to allow the com-pany back on the mountain.
TheUBCMconference runsuntil Friday.Burnaby, Vancouver and Victoria all sub-mitted additional emergency resolutionsrelated to the Kinder Morgan expansion,which are scheduled for debate after NOWdeadlines.

14 Friday, September 26, 2014 Burnaby NOW
The Burnaby FirstCoalition has scheduled itsfirst of four town hall meet-ings to gather feedbackfrom residents regardinglocal issues.
On Tuesday, Sept. 30,council candidates fromthe BFC will be on hand tohear concerns from citizensabout issues in Burnabyand engage in informativediscussions. The meetingwill be held at BurnabyFirsts campaign office.
We committed to
talking to 3,000 or 4,000residents before we final-ize our platform,and were gettingclose to that num-ber right now,said BFC mayoralcandidate DarenHancott. Afterthe town hallmeetings, we willhave listened to anawful lot of resi-dents so we canalign our policieswith their views.
Hancott said membersof the coalition have spentthe past fewmonths knock-
ing on doors in Burnabyand speaking with resi-
dents about suchconcerns as lack oftransparency fromcity hall.
Theres a lot ofthings people areconcerned about,and theyre notgetting responsesfrom city hall, hesaid. One persontoldme theymade27 phone calls andemails to try to get
them to come out and cutdown a tree.
The meeting will kick
off with a short introduc-tion by Hancott, followedby one-minute addressesby all present BFC candi-dates. Attendees will thenbe given a few minuteseach to express their con-cerns with the city.
In anticipation of timeconstraints, the BFC willbe unable to respond toall concerns, though candi-dates and volunteers willdocument all issues raisedat the meeting.
The meeting will con-cludewith a small network-ing session for constituentsto speak with candidates.
Its giving a chance tosee a new party with a dif-ferent philosophy, (whichis) basically a time forchange at city hall, saidHancott.
The meeting runs from 7to 9 p.m. on Sept. 30 at theOdd Fellows Lodge, 7728Edmonds St.

No matter where you drive, you never knowwhen something could go wrong. It could bea flat tire, getting stuck in traffic, an accident,a car break down, or sliding into a ditch on aless travelled road. This is why it is important toalways be prepared and part of being preparedinvolves having an emergency kit.Having an emergency kit in your car can be veryhelpful when you are in a bind. While some
people overlook its importance because theyrely on road side assistance, the reality is thatyou never know how long it will take for helpto arrive.Even if you have road side assistance coverageyou may have to wait a while for help to arrive,
especially in poor weather conditions, saysAchiel Goossens, the senior manager of autoclaims with Aviva Canada. An emergency kitcan help make things more comfortable whileyou are waiting for help to arrive.While there is no limit to what items you caninclude in your emergency kit, there are anumber of things that Goossens suggests youneed. These items include: A cell phone (if you dont carry one with you); A first aid kit; Bottled water and snacks; A blanket, gloves, and additional warmclothing for the winter months;
Flashlight and batteries; Tire gauge and jumper cables; A small tool kit.This is a minimum. Depending on your specificsituation, you may include other items basedon your driving frequency and the climatewhere you drive.Regardless of how often and where you drive,having an emergency kit is common sense.If you dont have one already, investing in oneis not only important, it could be a lifesaver.More detailed information is available fromyour insurance broker or at AvivaCanada.com.
