coquitlam now september 5 2012

What could have been thebiggest party of the summerin the Tri-Cities turned out tobe a dud.

Coquitlam Mounties suc-cessfully played spoilers to aplanned “Project X” party inthe Como Lake Village areaFriday night.

“We had kids come out,they were looking for theparty, but nothing cameabout,” said RCMP Const.Michelle Luca.

She suggested the partywasn’t necessarily meant to belarge, but just happened to becalled a Project X party.

That got attention on socialmedia, which also caught theeye of the police and main-stream media, ultimatelyputting an end to the bashaltogether.

Coquitlam RCMP receivedword of the mega party lastweek, and suggested theywould spoil the plans.

Police noted more than1,000 invitations were sentout via social media includinginstructions for party-goersto meet at the LougheedSkyTrain station and head toCoquitlam Centre before pro-ceeding to the home.

Local Mounties warned any-one with plans to attend thatpolice were aware and werecommitted to making surethose plans fall through.

There were extra police onduty Friday night, but Lucanoted the greater presencewould be in place anyway for along weekend.

Almost every child’s school yearstarts out with the promise of success.

And after a year of labour strife inand out of the classroom, teachers andofficials within the school district aresharing that same sense of optimism.

Coquitlam Teachers’ Associationpresident Teresa Grandinetti suggestedteachers are glad to start the year offwithout any job action.

“I think they’re hoping for a yearwhere they can enjoy their classroom,which they were doing last year, butwithout that political piece that was

always there,” she told The NOW.“It adds a level of stress.”Just as the 2011-12 school year was

wrapping up in June, the teachers’union and the province reached a dealthat would end the nearly year-longlabour dispute.

The agreement is set to expire at theend of the 2012-13 school year, afterthe next provincial election.

Grandinetti said the union is look-ing forward to a change in govern-ment when the next contract is nego-tiated.

While the contract is expected tobring peace to the classrooms, it stillmight not be business as usual.

As part of the dispute, teachers

opted out of filling out report cardsuntil instructed to by the LabourRelations Board, while the union votedin favour of withdrawing from extra-curricular activities like sports andgrad activities last spring.

The withdrawal was a direct reactionto Bill 22, which was legislation thatimposed a cooling-off period betweenthe teachers and the employer.

Report cards will handed out, butGrandinetti said resuming involve-ment in extracurricular activitieswould remain an individual decision,noting the union isn’t sending a direc-tive to members on what they shouldor shouldn’t do.

“I think people will just make their

own personal decisions,” she said, add-ing parents don’t need to worry aboutapproaching teachers regarding theirchild’s progress.

Though many teachers did withdrawfrom extracurricular activities, somechose to keep on volunteering.

Centennial Secondary teacher andcoach Larry Moro was one of theteachers who kept on coaching.

He’s also hoping the atmospherearound schools this year will get backto normal, even though he acknow-ledged some of the issues surroundingthe teachers’ contract dispute haven’tgone away.

The Mackin House Museum inMaillardville is a stunning rep-resentation of what the original

structure would have looked like inthe early 1890s.

With its strong Edwardian archi-tecture, large veranda and charmingexterior, it radiates French culture— and even has the word “musée” or“museum” proudly displayed in thetop-right corner.

Since the early 20th century, it hasbeen repainted and the southern wingof the home has been renovated. Butin the parlour, you can still find fur-niture that would have been used in1910, and traditional butter churners,meat and coffee grinders can be foundin the kitchen.

The Coquitlam Heritage Society,which operates the city-owned herit-age house, has done its part to pre-serve the century-old building whereMaillardville’s signature French cul-ture originated.

Located on the corner of MarmontStreet and Brunette Avenue, the housewas originally occupied by HenryJames Mackin, the general sales man-ager of the rapidly growing FraserMills Company, a state-of-the-art lum-ber mill.

In 1909, the company began recruit-ing lumber workers from Quebec andOntario to work at the mill and wel-comed the influx of francophone work-ers to the area.

Shortly after, Maillardville was born.“Everything in Maillardville has

been flavoured by the French culture.The first resident was not a franco-phone, but many mill workers werefrancophones,” said Jill Cook, execu-tive director of the Coquitlam HeritageSociety. “The house reflects a pioneerspirit that they would have reflected.”

During its 103-year existence,the community of Maillardville hasremained true to its French culture,even though the population has

become increasingly more multicul-tural.

“There has been a lot of immigra-tion and the percentage of Frenchpeople has dropped recently,” said AlBoire, president of the MaillardvilleResidents’ Association. “It’s not strictlya French community, but a multicul-tural one … while it’s not the sameFrench population that once existed,the French culture does exist.”

In more recent years, there hasbeen a conscious effort to breathenew life into French culture withinthe area, including the revitalizationof Brunette Street’s commercial strip,festivals and architectural and land-

scaping designs being implemented toreflect French heritage.

While the French language is not aswidely used throughout the Tri-Citiesas it once was, it is still heard on thestreets and homes on the south slopeof Coquitlam.

According to Cook, the heritagehouse is very much a reminder of themill that was responsible for bringingsuch a rich culture to Coquitlam.

“The mill was the central impetusfor the development of Maillardville.If it had not been for the expansionof the mill and the Quebec workersthat came, worked and stayed in thiscommunity, and put their stamp on

it, none of this would be as robust orunique as it is right now,” she said.

Boire echoed Cook’s assertions, add-ing that Fraser Mills was responsiblefor bringing French Canadians toCoquitlam in the first place.

“Mackin house and [Place des Arts]are very much a part of Maillardville’shistory,” he said.

Mackin House Museum andMaillardville will celebrate their 103rdbirthday at Heritage Square with localartists, interactive displays, heritagebaking, a barbecue, clowns and cup-cakes. Local residents are encouragedto join the festivities on Saturday,Sept. 15 from noon to 4 p.m.

Board chair thinks focus will be on kids

“Last year wasn’t fun foranybody,” he said.

Moro indicated some teach-ers will return to the coachingranks, but others may decideto choose something else, ornot volunteer at all. He saidhe supports either position.

“It’s volunteer work. Noone can tell you. You have todo it,” Moro said.

“The nature of last yearcaused some people to thinkwhether they wanted to do itor not, so it wouldn’t surpriseme if we had some peoplechoose not to come back tocoach — that’s alright.”

Local politicians are alsooptimistic this year will lookdifferent than the last.

School District 43 boardchair Melissa Hyndes suggest-ed there is still a lot of strifebetween both sides in thedispute, but believes the kidswill be the focus and teacherswill return to the work they’ve

always done. “We anticipatethe school year will be undis-rupted,” she said.

Hyndes said the turmoilwas not only disruptive to stu-dents’ learning, but it addedstress to parents and families,especially around issues ofchildcare.

In March, teachers walked

off the job for three days,sending some parents scram-bling for childcare options.

Hyndes said having a newcontract is reassuring forTri-Cities families, while theboard is now looking forwardto moving ahead with districtinitiatives like the personal-ized learning agenda.

Former Anmore councillor is speaking out

As Anmore residents getready to head to the polls onSept. 22 for a civic byelection,the councillor who steppeddown and forced the vote iscoming forward with moredetails about his resignation.

In June, rookie councillorTim Laidler quit over the waycouncil hired its new CAO(chief administrative officer).

At the time, he suggestedthe village hadn’t followedthe criteria set out in the jobposting.

In an e-mail to The NOWlast week, Laidler expanded onhis reasons for quitting, againexpressing concern with theprocess by which the CAO wasselected.

Laidler wrote to The NOW:“The meetings to select thenew CAO/Approving Officerwere held in camera, after Iobjected to informal meet-ings being held at the WhiteSpot. I particularly objectedto informal meetings as therewere no minutes being taken.”

Laidler also suggested ittook too long to decide ona CAO and suggested MayorHeather Anderson had insist-ed the position required noformal education, CAO experi-ence or municipal courses.

But Laidler’s main claimsurrounds his allegation ofa leak during the in-cameraselection process regardingthe names of the three candi-dates who were short-listed.

He said “one or more coun-cillors” were “approached andgiven negative informationon the candidate who wasthe lead contender for theposition.” He also suggestedsupport then increased foranother candidate.

Laidler claimed that “Mayor

Anderson did nothing toinvestigate” the alleged infor-mation leak from the in-cam-era meeting, and she “refusedto invite the candidate whowas in the lead to answer theallegations.”

After four months as actingCAO, Tim Harris was hiredon a permanent basis. He hadworked for the village for 15years before becoming CAO.

Laidler insisted his criti-cisms are not levelled atHarris, but rather the processof picking the CAO.

But the hiring decisionappears to have split council.

Anderson is refutingLaidler’s account and standingby council’s decision.

However, she noted she hadto be careful in her responsebecause of the in-cameranature of the discussions.

The mayor said shetook council out once toWhite Spot for breakfast inDecember after the civic elec-tion to discuss the generaldirection of the village, butshe always expected the CAOhiring process to be heldin-camera. She said threecandidates were short-listedand the merits of each werediscussed among council.

“We were trying to get toa consensus, but it becameobvious that wasn’t possibleso we took a vote at the end,”

Anderson said. She also notedthat, besides council, villagestaff and a hired consultantwere all present during the in-camera discussions.

When asked if anything washandled incorrectly duringthe process, Anderson replied:“No, not that I’m aware of.”

Two other Anmore council-lors are also defending theCAO hiring process.

Coun. Kerri Isaak said therewas always an understandingthe process would be done in-camera.

“I feel we followed theprocess the way we were sup-posed to as a council and wetend to be fairly casual aboutthings, but when it came toprotocol, we did follow pro-cedure,” she said, noting astaff member was present dur-ing the discussion to ensurethe rules were followed.

Isaak also suggested it’snot unusual for councils tolook for other information ona potential candidate beinghired for a city job, whetherit be through the Internet orspeaking to someone active inthe community.

“If I go and Google a can-didate online, I’m receivinginformation from an onlinesource — I think it’s veryhard to draw a straight linethat way,” she said.

Isaak said she partiallyblamed herself and councilfor not helping Laidler learnmore about the process beforehe resigned.

Coun. Tracy Green said theprocess of hiring the CAO wassimilar to any other councildecision, adding in this case,the issue was contentious andwasn’t reached by consensus.

“I was happy with theprocess. I’m happy with thedecision that we made,” shesaid. “We had ample meet-ings and ample opportunity

to voice our opinions, andbring forward issues that wefelt needed to be addressed.I don’t see that process wasdone any differently thanwe’ve approached any otherissue on council.”

Green said she was notaware of any leaks from thein-camera meetings, addingshe isn’t sure where Laidler’sclaim is coming from.

Both councillors noted theyneeded to be careful in theirresponse due to the in-cameranature of the discussion.

However, Coun. JohnMcEwen agreed with Laidler’sopinion that the process wasflawed, suggesting he hadconcerns about council’s abil-ity to hire someone from thebeginning. He said he advo-cated for a human resourcesfirm to handle the processfrom the start, noting therewere more than 30 applicants.

“It’s such a vital position onthe village, you want to makesure you get the absolute bestcandidate,” McEwen said, add-ing he’s not saying the CAOwho was hired wasn’t the bestchoice.

“The key point is that wehired somebody without evena specific job description, thatwas a challenge right from thestart.”

Though McEwen didn’tcall it a leak, he maintainedinformation did come out at

one of the meetings, which hedid not attend, about anotherpotential candidate. He saidthe information did have aninfluence on the final deci-sion. In the end, McEwen said

he accepted council’s decision.As for the byelection

to replace Laidler, threepeople are running: ArthurCrossman, Sagheer Jan andAnn-Marie Thiele.

Just a week prior, RCMP inLangley informed the mediaand public about plans for aProject X party, which alsonever materialized.

But police aren’t exactlyfinished with Project X par-ties.

Luca said the detachmentwill continue to monitorsocial media sites looking forthe large gatherings.

She also suggested the pub-lic can play a role in stoppingthem by calling the detach-ment and letting police knowif they hear of any parties.

“If people see it, give us ashout,” Luca said.

Project X is a movie about agroup of teens who decide to

throw a big party that ends upgetting out of control, eventu-

It must have looked like abad scene out of a mobstermovie.

Port Moody police taped offan area around Suter Brooklate Sunday morning after

getting a call about whatappeared to be a body beingloaded into the trunk of avehicle in a dirt lot adjacentto 400 Capilano Rd.

When police arrived, they

found a small trail of bloodleading to tire tracks in thedirt.

The area was taped off andofficers began looking for thesuspect vehicle.

While the search wasunderway, the owner of thevehicle returned.

According to police, appar-ently he and his brother wereout walking a dog in the dirt

lot when the brother steppedon a piece of rebar and cut hisfoot fairly badly.

Since the brother wasunable to walk, the man drovehis SUV into the lot, opened

the rear hatch, loaded hisbrother into the back andtook him to hospital.

Police later confirmed thestory with the brother andstaff at the hospital.

Brush fires still a threatThe kids are back in school and it might feel

like summer is over, but in the more remoteareas of the Tri-Cities, the season isn’t done.

The risk of a forest fire remains high, and ithas crews with Coquitlam Fire and Rescue onalert for potential brush fires.

“Because the weather’s been drier, we’restarting to get bush fires,” said fire chief TonyDelmonico.

In a two-day span last week between Aug.

31 and Sept. 1, the department responded to41 incidents, several of those related to brushfires.

The forecast for the rest of the week is call-ing for warm temperatures to continue.

Delmonico noted the department would con-tinue to patrol parks looking for small camp-fires along the river.

He also pointed out in past years the fire rat-ing in the area can remain high until October.

Premier Christy Clark is “re-structuring” hercabinet, but a more pressing challenge for heris finding enough credible candidates to carry

her party’s tarnished banner in the next election.And she’s not the only leader facing this daunting

task. B.C. Conservative leader John Cummins mustalso find 83 people to run for his party (I’m presum-ing both him and MLA John van Dongen will be run-ning next May).

Both parties must run careful background checkson prospective candidates to weed out potentialembarrassments. If either party findsitself unable to woo enough people torun, I wonder whether those backgroundchecks will weaken and thus allow sus-pect candidates to garner a nomination.

It would seem Cummins and hisparty is particularly vulnerable to thisscenario. The B.C. Liberals, for all theirproblems, still have a solid party infra-structure in place and the party is runby experienced hands who have beeninvolved in three election victories.

The B.C. Conservatives, on the otherhand, have yet to demonstrate they possess a disci-plined, seasoned process to oversee their electioncampaign. Cummins once expressed concern to meon a Shaw Voice of B.C. program that he was wor-ried his party would attract the wrong kind of candi-date who could prove embarrassing.

As I wrote here previously, the B.C. Conservativeshave to inoculate themselves from “bozo eruptions”from candidates in the middle of a campaign. Theycan derail any campaign momentum rather quickly.

Indeed, Cummins himself has just providedthe exact kind of comment I’m talking about. In

an interview with The Vancouver Sun’s JonathanFowlie last month, Cummins compared himself toJesus Christ no less.

In talking about facing a potential challenge tohis leadership, Cummins said he could find only oneparty board member who wanted him gone. Then,he added this gem of a quote: “I hate to use a bib-lical reference but Christ had 12 apostles, and oneturned him in. We share the same initials but I can’trise from the dead and I can’t get unanimity on theboard. I wouldn’t expect to be able to. He couldn’t.

I can’t.”You can be sure this quote will be

resurrected (sorry for the pun) by theB.C. Liberals as we draw closer to thenext election. The last political leaderwho compared himself to Christ wasnone other than Bill Vander Zalm at theheight of his leadership problems, andthings didn’t turn out so well for him.

Clark’s potential problem when itcomes to candidate recruitment is alittle different. While Cummins is askingpeople to come on board a new venture,

where the expectations might not be so high, Clarkis trying to convince people to jump aboard a shipthat is listing badly and seems likely to go under, orat least not right itself any time soon.

While her predecessor, Gordon Campbell, couldwoo “star” candidates such as Carole Taylor, WallyOppal, Margaret MacDiarmid, Kash Heed and MoiraStilwell with the offer of a cabinet post, Clark is notin a position to do that.

The best she can offer, right now at least, is thechance to be a portfolio critic sitting in the OfficialOpposition. That’s not the most appealing offer to

people who currently have good careers in the pri-vate sector.

The one leader sitting in the catbird seat is, ofcourse, the NDP’s Adrian Dix. He’s only losing ahandful of MLAs from his existing caucus (Clark, onthe other hand, will lose about 20 sitting MLAs) andhis party is well along in the nomination process.

The NDP has already landed a star candidate inlong-time labour leader Judy Darcy, who will run inNew Westminster, and has more than a dozen newcandidates as well (and don’t forget the loomingshowdown in Vancouver-Fairview, where politicalheavyweights George Heyman and Geoff Meggs arevying for the nomination).

The proof of the NDP’s prowess when it comesto recruiting strong candidates was in evidence lastspring, when it attracted former Port Moody mayorJoe Trasolini to successfully run in a byelection.

The NDP finds itself in a situation similar tothe one it faced in 1991, when it was also heavilyfavoured to form government. Back then, it gotpeople like Mike Farnworth, Joy MacPhail, PennyPriddy, Andrew Petter, Ujjal Dosanjh and SueHammell to run as first-timers, and they all becamestrong cabinet ministers.

It’s yet another parallel to the pivotal 1991 elec-tion, which saw a long-time political dynasty almostdisappear from sight. The current premier has a lotof work ahead of her to prevent the same thing fromhappening again next May.

Who will run for Liberals, Conservatives?

Anyone with young children can identify withKevin Falcon’s decision to leave politics to focusmore time on his family, especially with anotherchild expected early next year just prior to the prov-incial election. Politics is a demandingoccupation, especially when you are theMinister of Finance and Deputy Premierof B.C.

As finance minister, Falcon can be par-ticularly proud of the fact that B.C. hasbeen able to maintain its Triple-A creditrating at a time when so many otherprovinces, states and countries have seen their creditratings downgraded. This is no small accomplish-ment and it’s a testament to the good government

B.C. has enjoyed over the past 12 years. It was alsovery admirable of Falcon, in stepping away from pol-itics, to acknowledge the hard work, dedication andservice of all who are involved in the public life of

this province, from all political partiesin the B.C. legislature, but especially thepremier. Truly, the travel and time awayfrom family alone warrants our appre-ciation. So, thank you to Kevin Falconfor his many years of service to thisprovince and congratulations to himand his wife on the pending addition to

their young and growing family.Christopher Law

For most folks, the last long weekend ofsummer was a time to load up the bar-becue, take a nap in the hammock and,

most of all, forget about work.But Labour Day, is, after all, all about work.

Work that, in many cases, deserves to be rec-ognized with more pay, better health andsafety protections, job security and, last butnot least, respect.

Unions have earned their chops fightingfor workers’ rights for countless years. Labouractivists have lost their lives, been vilified fortheir beliefs, and sacrificed family life to fightthe good fight. And, to be sure, some folksrecognize they owe a lot to unions for bet-ter working conditions. Does anyone actuallythink employers would be plumping up thepension fund or adding dental care to non-union employee packages if it weren’t for amarketplace that included better-paid unionworkers? The simple threat of having a unioncertify a workplace is sometimes all that’srequired to get a company to increase wages.

But times are changing, and we questionwhether workers will be able to avoid claw-backs. With a dwindling union membershipin B.C., and more global opportunities foremployers, union members are facing a verychallenging time. Unions are much morereluctant to pull the trigger and go on strikenowadays. Barring public sector unions, anyunion that hits the bricks in today’s econ-omy might risk seeing its workplace move toanother country. Unions are being forced toamalgamate with other unions to survive and,like other organizations, make cuts to servicesfor their members.

But it is still true that there is strength innumbers and power in unity.

Unions still offer the only true voice forworkers in an economy that seems hell benton treating workers as disposable commod-ities.

My husband and Ivisited some friendsin Ontario recently.

Thanks to the recent passingof Bill C-311, we could nowlegally give them some B.C.wine as a gift. Orcould we?

Bill C-311amended the84-year old fed-eral law, dating toProhibition, thatmade it illegal tocarry or ship wine directlyacross provincial borders (forexample from a B.C. winery toOntario). The law was a posterchild for ridiculous red tapeand long overdue for amend-ment.

For small wineries, Bill C-311 seemed like a godsend:explaining to customers whyyou can’t send them winebecause they happen to liveout of province wasn’t any-body’s idea of a good time.

Unfortunately, it takes morethan just amending outdatedfederal legislation to untanglethe mess of rules governingwine travelling across provin-cial borders.

The provinces are involvedin regulating, too.

The good news is that allprovinces, except Quebec,

allow individuals to physicallytake various quantities withthem for personal use. It’snow legal, for example, for aCalgarian to buy a bottle ofwine from a B.C. winery and

take it home.The bad news

is that most prov-inces don’t seemeager to allowtheir residents tohave wine sentto them from

other provinces. According tothe Canadian Association ofLiquor Jurisdictions, whichrepresents 13 liquor boardsand commissions, right nowthere are only two exceptions.

Manitoba allows its resi-dents to ship unlimitedamounts of wine from otherprovinces as long as it is forpersonal use. The provincehad no regulations sayingotherwise on its books soimporting was allowed bydefault after C-311 passed.

B.C. showed leadershipamong provinces by chan-ging its regulations quicklyafter C-311 was passed tomake importing directly forpersonal use legal. If I visitan Ontario winery, I can nowlegally have as much as I likeshipped to me (as long as it is

for personal consumption and100-per-cent Canadian wineonly). I can order it online,too. If you are a wine aficion-ado, count yourself lucky tolive here.

I propose a toast to thesetwo provinces for quickly andclearly supporting the federalred-tape slashing.

Dan Albas, the MP whointroduced Bill C-311, andShirley-Ann George, whocontinues to push for morefreedom for wineries and con-sumers through her websiteFreeMyGrapes.ca, also deservefeting. I consider them worthyof a CFIB Golden ScissorsAward for cutting red tape.

As for the other provincesthat have yet to join the party,what’s the hold-up? Isn’t sup-porting local wineries and giv-ing consumers more choiceworthy of your immediatesupport?

My friends in Ontarioreceived a bottle of B.C. winerecently.

It’s one that I still had tocarry on the plane. I still can’tship wine directly to themfrom a B.C. winery.

If they lived in anothercountry it would be no prob-lem.

Despite C-311, inter-prov-

incial trade barriers for wine-shipping are still alive andkicking.

Port Moody police ticket HOV-lane cheaters

There may be nothing moreaggravating than sitting ina long line of traffic while avehicle with just one personinside flies by in the HOVlane. But recently, Port Moodypolice have been handing outa form of poetic justice to thelawbreakers.

As part of a one-hour HOVenforcement blitz on Aug. 29along Barnet Highway, thedepartment handed out nineviolation tickets and anothereight warnings. In a couple ofcases, the drivers were repeatHOV offenders.

One driver had three priorfines, another had four previ-ous tickets, while yet anotherhad received a fine the daybefore from the same officer.

The Port Moody policesent out this batch of Tweetsregarding enforcement:“Repeat customers this mor-ning, incl a driver with fourprev HOV tickets and a driverwho received an HOV ticketyest from the same officer.”

“The fine for HOV is $109with a $25 discount if paidwithin 30 days - as we werereminded roadside by the wellversed drivers.”

Port Moody police spokes-man Const. Luke van Winkelsaid the force is finding peoplebreaking the HOV rules tendto be repeat offenders.

“Which is frustrating for allthe people who obey the ruleson a regular basis and factorin the time needed to drivetheir daily commute, versustrying to squeeze through theHOV lane,” he said, notingmost of the tickets issued onthat day were also given torepeat offenders.

So far this year, the depart-ment has handed out morethan 30 HOV violation ticketsand written 40 warnings.

Van Winkel pointed out thenumbers in 2012 are on parwith last year.

With the school year under-way, the police aren’t done.

Van Winkel suggested there

is always a huge increase inthe amount of traffic duringpeak hours once summervacation ends, noting thedepartment will be taking partin extra enforcement of every-

thing traffic related, includingHOV lanes and school zonesthroughout the week andbeyond.

Eight months into 2012,Port Moody police have

handed out more than 1,100traffic-related tickets, as wellas issuing another 2,000warnings.

That works out to an aver-age of 13 tickets per day, for

everything from speeding todrinking and driving.

Van Winkel said the num-ber of tickets has dipped com-pared to 2011, but he isn’tsure of the exact reason.

They respond to medical emergencies, res-cue people trapped in elevators or cars,deliver the occasional baby and, most

importantly, fight the deadliest fires in theLower Mainland.

They are firefighters, and they put their liveson the line on a daily basis.

Though their job demands being physicallyfit and having an unfailing willingness to helpothers, it doesn’t mean they can’t have a bit offun every once in a while.

This year’s 26th-annual Greater VancouverFirefighters Hall of Flame calendar featuresthree Coquitlam firefighters willing to barealmost all for a good cause.

“It’s a really great event. Every year this

event fundraises lots of money for the burnfund and other organizations,” said BrentGlenen, a Coquitlam firefighter for more thanfour years, as well as Mr.February. “I’m proud to be afireman and I thought, ‘Whynot? There’s no reason not to.’”

For Chad Buch, Mr. June,the calendar is a unique way offundraising that not all peoplehave the opportunity to getinvolved with.

“There’s a lot of traditionwith the firefighters’ calen-dar … throughout Canada,everyone knows about it,”said Buch, who has been withCoquitlam Fire & Rescue for seven years. “It’sa really great opportunity for us to be able togive back in a way that nobody else [can].”

The volunteer models are taking it off forlocal charities with proceeds going to theB.C. Professional Fire Fighters’ Burn fund, as

well as the CKNW Orphans’Fund and various VancouverFirefighters’ CharitableSociety-supported charitiesand non-profit organizations.

The trio round out the late-winter-to-early-spring sectionof the calendar, but remainedtight-lipped about the photoshoots and what people canexpect in this year’s calendar.

“We’re not professionalmodels, so there is a sense ofhumour to the whole calendar

… it’s really about having a good time andsupporting a good cause,” said Buch.

“It’s definitely not easy to get up and expose

myself to a large group of women, but thecause pushes me through,” said Mr. March,Len Pashley, who has also been with thedepartment for seven years.

The calendar is one of the VancouverFirefighters’ Charitable Society’s largest andmost successful fundraisers, and this year theyhope to surpass last year’s sales of $50,000.

Since its inception in 1996, the Hall ofFlame calendar and other fundraising initia-tives have raised more than $1 million forcharities throughout the Lower Mainland.

Plans are also in the works for an exclusiveticket-only ladies night at the Golden SpikePub in Port Moody on Nov. 11. Tickets will beavailable at the pub.

The calendar will be launched on Sept. 14and will be available online at www.vancouver-firefighters.ca or at select London Drugs andSave-on-Foods locations for $20.

Arts education can improve academic performanceDo you thinkstudying thevisual and/orperformingarts is just forplay? Thinkagain. Studiesshow thatexposure tothe arts hasmultiple ben-efits, not theleast of which

is improved academic performance.

Studying the visual arts gives children valuablelife skills and can lead to greater success atschool. Indeed, kids who study the visual artslearn to formulate an informed perception,articulate a vision, build self-confidence andself-discipline and develop problem-solvingand critical-thinking skills.

Taking part in dance or drama classes is a cre-ative and stimulating way for kids and youthto get physical exercise, express creativity andbuild the imagination. Like team sports, beingpart of a dance or drama class or performance

is an excellent way to learn teamwork, de-velop social interaction skills, build self-confi-dence and reduce anxiety — even test anxiety.

Even for children with special needs, researchshows that educational drama can offervaluable learning opportunities to childrenwith severe and complex learning needs, andcreative movement may benefit children withautism. For English language learners, dramaand movement technique can be effective inthe development of language proficiency.

As for music, many studies have linked musicstudy to better academic performance. Indeed,a 1999 UCLA study called Involvement in theArts and Human Development found that“students who are consistently involved inhigh levels of instrumental music demonstratesignificantly higher mathematics proficiencythan their non-music peers.” Other studiesshow that, like schooling, music training raisesIQ, and that mental capacities developedwhen participating in and learning music aretransferable to academic undertakings.

Of course, the big bonus of studying thearts for kids is that they don’t realize they’re

“studying” because they’re having so muchfun. There are many excellent opportunitiesto study the arts in the Tri-Cities. One of themost established arts education facilities isPlace des Arts Arts Centre and Music Schoolin Maillardville. With 40 years of excellencein arts education, supported by highly skilledand reputable teachers, Place des Arts offersclasses and private lessons in music, dance,and the visual, theatre and literary arts for allages and abilities.

New classes this year include a Taiko Drum-ming Ensemble and Cello Ensemble forchildren and youth, preschool visual artsclasses, Intro to Jazz and Hip-Hop, MusicalTheatre, Drama through Masks and DramaFun & Games.

These, along with multiple classes in visual art,fibre art, pottery, dance, theatre and music,provide something to fit every child’s needsand interests. Classes are offered at Place desArts, 1120 Brunette Ave. and off-site at theEvergreen Cultural Centre.

Visit www.placedesarts.ca to view class of-ferings and register for fall session classes or

ongoing (September to June) lessons. Or dropby the Family Open House on Saturday, Sept.15 from 2 to 4 p.m. to find the perfect class,lesson or teacher to meet your child’s needs.

Every September, students and teachers lookforward to the fresh start of a new school year.Teachers want to work with parents to protectour public schools and provide quality educationfor all our students.

A message from the Coquitlam Teachers’ Association

Welcomeback to school!



It’s time to get back to school and back towork, and that means it’s back to brown baglunches. It’s also peak harvest season, mean-ing there’s a bounty of fresh, local fruits andvegetables to fill your packed lunches with nu-tritious, environmentally friendly tasty treats.

According to Vancouver dietitian Gloria Tsang,founder of nutrition network HealthCastle.comand author of Go UnDiet: 50 Small Actions forLasting Weight Loss, many people find it hardto get inspired to pack a nutritious lunch forschool or the office. “Focusing on local foodthat’s in season right now can ensure you getthe most nutrition out of your lunch, since the

food will be some of the freshest available,”Tsang says. “It can also help you hold on tosummer for a while longer as you bring someof the powerful tastes of late summer produceto your desk.”

When looking for local, in season-produce foryour lunch bag, just follow HealthCastle.com’sSeptember produce ABCs:

A is for Apples and Apricots: Apples and apri-cots both offer fibre and Vitamin C. Apricotsalso provide potassium and Vitamin A.

B is for Berries and Broccoli: Berries arepacked with vitamins and antioxidants, while

broccoli provides protein, calcium, iron andmagnesium.

C is for Carrots, Celery and Cucumbers: Allthree of these crunchy vegetables offer Vita-mins A, C and K, and potassium.

Beyond the ABCs, you can load your locallyinspired lunch bag up with grapes, melon,radishes and tomatoes. Plus there’s one extra-productive September letter for local Canadi-

an treats: letter P. It brings a huge fall bounty,including peaches, pears, plums and peppers.

With a lunch bag full of fresh, in-season localproduce, you’ll be well-prepared to face theshock of returning to the daily grind. Moresimple, small achievable actions to reclaimhealth are available in Go UnDiet, now avail-able at Chapters/Indigo, Amazon, Kindle, Koboand iBooks.

Use the ABCs to packback-to-school lunches

Keep kids safe on the road this season

School is back in session,which means our lives andour roads will be busier onceagain. With all the changesfamilies undergo at this timeof year, it makes it even morevital for parents to chat withtheir kids about the rules ofthe road. Younger childrenoften lack the cognitiveand physical skills to makesafe decisions and with thelong summer break, a safetyrefresher will help them startthe year off right.

“In Canada, more children

acquire pedestrian-relatedinjuries in the months ofSeptember and October thanat any other time of year,”says Young Drivers of Canadapresident Peter Christianson.“Drivers need to be extracautious, drive defensivelyand be aware of what is hap-pening 360 degrees aroundtheir vehicle at all times.”

These safety tips from YoungDrivers of Canada will easethe transition of back toschool and help both parentsand students prepare for the

road ahead:

1. Start the Conversation:Encourage new and return-ing students to alwayswalk, bicycle or drive safely.Plan out their route toschool and review roadrules.

2. Text Off: Is your child adistracted walker? Encour-age your child to keeptheir head up and keep thecellphone safely tuckedaway. Their focus shouldbe on the road and busyintersections.

3. Plan Ahead: Always leaveplenty of time for youand your family to get toschool — running late cancause aggressive drivingbehaviours.

4. Scan the Road: Use theground viewing techniqueto scan under parked carsfor the feet of children ap-proaching traffic.

5. Mind the School Bus:Motorists travelling in bothdirections must stop for aschool bus unless the roadis divided by a median.

6. Patience is Key: Driversneed to wait for childrento complete their cross-ing before proceeding.Children can often changetheir minds.

7. Change lanes early: Bevigilant as many kids ride

bicycles on the way to andfrom school. Share theroad safely and changelanes early to providethese road users withample space.

8. Reduce Speed: Be awareof school zone signageand reduce speed in schoolzones.

9. Get in the Zone: If youare driving children toschool, drop them off in asafe area away from traffic— most schools have des-ignated drop-off zones.

10. Honk and Communi-cate: Cover the horn inany doubtful situation soyou are ready to warn achild of your presence.

Hatchery showcasesnew nature mural

For nearly two decades,teachers across B.C. have beenteaching elementary schoolkids about the importanceof salmon with a hands-onmethod that includes raisingchum eggs to the fry stagebefore releasing them intonearby ecosystems.

And now the Hyde CreekWatershed Society is thankingteachers and students fromthe local school district whohave contributed to the HydeCreek ecosystem over the past11 years with a mural.

A wall and staircase insidethe Hyde Creek EducationalCentre and Hatchery has beenpainted and dedicated to theelementary school children ofSchool District 43 who havehelped the hatchery succeedover the years.

As part of the Departmentof Fisheries and Ocean’sSalmonids in the Classroomprogram, Tri-Cities childrenare tasked with raising chumeggs to the fry stage in aquar-iums in their classrooms.Children tend the eggs fromJanuary to April before theyare released into Hyde Creekhatchery in the spring.

“[The program] has bene-fited the hatchery in termsof awareness, starting withthe children being so awareand educated on the cycleof the salmon and keepingour creeks clean,” said JeanPeachman, a director ofthe Hyde Creek WatershedSociety.

“Eleven years ago, I knewmore than the children butnow I find they correct my

pronunciation of the words.”The mural, painted by

Vancouver resident KimHunter, depicts children inthe classroom raising thechum eggs, then transitionsto a boy dumping the fish intothe creek.

As visitors ascend the stairsand reach the top, the muralshows the top of the moun-tain and the estuaries the sal-mon take to get to the ocean.

“I didn’t have to depict allthe bugs and trees accurately,it was more creative,” saidHunter, adding that as educa-tional tools, previous hatcherymurals had to be more accur-ate in their depictions andtook approximately 20 days topaint.

Over the past five years,Hunter has decorated thewalls of the learning centrewith educational muralsdepicting the four seasons andthe ecosystem and animalsthat depend on the creek.

The autumn mural ismeant to teach kids about thedifferent species of fish thatspawn in the creek; the sum-mer mural depicts the bears,herons and eagles that live offthe river; the spring muralfeatures all the blossoms, ber-ries and birds; while the win-ter artwork shows the ravens,deer and otters that utilize thecreek.

“By the time I did myfourth one, I was so wellversed in all the plants andberries in the creek,” Huntersaid. “It’s been worth manyyears of university study onecology just painting thesemurals.”

While funding for the$3,000 murals comes mainlyfrom sponsors, the society is

currently looking to fund themost recent mural, as well asthe painting of the top floorwalls.

The hatchery welcomesapproximately 250 free classesand tours annually.

Food drive on Friday

Community

faceb kfaceb k

Just three weeks.That’s about how much of

a supply of food is left on theshelves of the SHARE Societyfood bank.

It’s a constant battle forSHARE officials to keep upwith the demand, especiallyduring summertime whenmany people’s thoughts areturned toward the sun.

SHARE’s chief executiveofficer Martin Wyant said thefood bank has seen a 59-per-cent growth in users sincethe recession of 2008, and thenumbers aren’t slowing down.

“The challenge for us isalways trying to stay withinstriking distance of thedemand that we’re seeing,” hetold The NOW.

While Christmas is typicallythe biggest donation seasonfor the food bank, the sum-mer is almost the completeopposite.

So in order to meet thechallenge and fill the shelvesin the meantime, the foodbank is launching a food drivefor Friday, Sept. 7.

In partnership withPriceSmart Foods, SHARE ishoping to fill a semi-trailerwith donations.

With a successful fooddrive, Wyant believes it shouldput the food bank in goodshape up until just before theholiday season.

“It’s really important we getfood on the shelves now,” hesaid, adding it’s a challengemany of the food banks in theLower Mainland are facing atthis time.

“If we’re successful on this,it should push us throughuntil that next period oftime.”

Residents are asked to makea donation at the CoquitlamPriceSmart Foods at 2991Lougheed Hwy. between 9a.m. and 6 p.m.

Donations can be made bypurchasing $10 or $15 pre-

packaged hampers inside thestore. The food bank notes theitems most urgently neededinclude:

• Rice• Pasta and pasta sauce• Canned meals (ravioli,

beans, etc.)• Canned fruit• Lipton Sidekicks,

Hamburger Helpers, Shake &Bake, Kraft Dinner

• Juice• Canned tomatoes• Cereal• Peanut butter (medium

size)Residents can also drop by

with their own food and/orcash donations, or donateonline at www. sharesociety.ca. SHARE also needs volun-teers to help out on Sept. 7.Those interested are askedto contact Heather Staceyat 604-529-5107 or [email protected].

Express duo takes similar path to Poirier

There’s nothing like a little experience to inspire greatbeginnings.

For both Brady Shaw and Cameron Marks, this year’sexpectations as members of the Coquitlam Express are ground-ed despite separate routes and different roles.

But the two share a similar bond — each had a cup of coffeelast year as members of the PentictonVees, the B.C. Hockey League club thatrode roughshod past the opposition toa Royal Bank Cup crown — that couldprovide a piece to the puzzle.

Shaw, who emerged last year as atalented sniper on the Express’ top line,was discarded by Penticton early in theseason. Marks, meanwhile, got into apair of games as an affiliate and enjoyedhis first taste of junior A.

The two now are teammates, work-ing at different ends of the ice butsharing the common goal of helpingCoquitlam be the team that others chase.

“It’s never easy coming in to a new team, trying to findchemistry and having new linemates and stuff,” said Shaw of hisarrival in the Lower Mainland last year. “[Coach Jon Calvano]made it pretty easy on me by shuffling the lines and seeing whatworked.”

Shaw’s skills fit well with fellow junior A rookies AlexanderKerfoot and John Siemer, and the trio emerged as one of themost electrifying lines in the league.

Getting cut by Penticton after just two games wasn’t the

stinging experience you’d expect.“I look at it differently. Obviously they went on to win a

national championship, which would have been pretty cool, butif I had stayed there I don’t think I would have had the oppor-tunity that I got here,” said Shaw, 19.

With Coquitlam, the six-foot-two winger finished with 33goals and 36 assists in 57 games, including 15 powerplay tallies.

For 17-year-old Marks, who plays a puck movement gamefrom the blueline, last year’s taste just whetted his appetite for anew season, and one based closer to home.

“It was just a great experience,very high tempo,” recalled Marks. “Igot quite a bit of ice and I expected acouple of shifts each period but I wasrolling out with the D-men. I liked thetempo last year and I’m pretty sure Ican play with these guys.”

That’s the kind of talk that pleasesthe Express coaching staff, which hasa bounty of returning veterans — likeShaw, Kerfoot, Siemer and goalie ColeHuggins — who could be forecastedto excel in a second season in thecircuit. There is also a healthy hand-

ful of freshmen vying for roles, like Marks, Marc Biega and CalHofford, that bring some key energy to the picture.

Will all the parts come together and be on the same pagewhen the regular season is slated to kick off Sept. 7 with theBCHL Showcase in Chilliwack?

“My main goal is just to find my game, to keep playing basedoff of last year,” said Shaw. “I thought I ended the season wellheading into the playoffs but struggled a bit in the playoffs. Iwant to find my stride heading into the season, be physical andtry to put some pucks in the net.”

Marks spent much of last year with the Vancouver NorthwestGiants of the B.C. Major Midget League, posting one goal and16 assists in 25 games. He considers his prime strengths as pos-itional and moving the puck forward.

“It’s just [about] making good decisions, that’s about itbecause you have very little time,” said Marks. “I would describemyself as a Nick Lidstrom. Like Nick I’m a shutdown D-manand I can play powerplay minutes, join the rush and put uppoints.”

As intangibles go, Shaw brings an element that most hockey-loving kids can only dream of. His father, former NHL defence-man Brad Shaw, played 377 games with Hartford, Ottawa,Washington and St. Louis before moving behind the bench.He’s currently the associate coach with Ken Hitchcock with theBlues.

Shaw’s mom, Mary, wrote a series of books titled Brady-Bradyabout a five-year-old hockey-obsessed boy and his adventures.

As a youth, the unwanted celebrity factor from the publishedstories was the last thing a teenager wanted, he admitted.

“Growing up in grades 7 and 8 you’d get teased for it at timesand I’d be pretty upset, but looking back on it now it’s prettycool. Not many people can say that there’s a book series writtenabout you,” said Shaw.

Coquitlam kicked off its exhibition schedule on Aug. 25 witha 2-2 tie against Chilliwack. The club followed that deadlockwith another stalemate one day later, this time tying Surrey 4-4. The Express rounded out their preseason schedule with a 7-4loss to Langley; a 5-4 overtime win over Chilliwack; a 4-2 loss toSurrey and a 5-2 win over the Simon Fraser University team.

The regular season kicks off this weekend with the BCHL’sShowcase Event at Chilliwack’s Prospera Centre.

Coquitlam takes on Victoria on Friday at 4 p.m. beforematching up against Cowichan Valley on Sunday at 2 p.m.

Fox looks to air it outin new gridiron season

There’s something up at Terry Fox.And while the senior football team isn’t

abandoning the run game, the ball will be inthe air a lot more this season.

The Terry Fox Ravens will enter the 2012B.C. High School AAA football season with anew playbook — one that features a lot morepassing than in past years.

With the addition of Jason Parachnowitschto the coaching staff — taking over the offen-sive coordinator role from Martin McDonnell— the playbook is getting updated.

“It’s more of a philosophical change thananything,” says McDonnell, who retains his co-coaching duties alongside Tom Kudaba. “Jasonbrings a wealth of new ideas from his workat Handsworth and Windsor … The timing isright, because we are stronger at wide receiverthan running back.”

The school has been blessed with some out-standing running and fullbacks over the years— with the likes of Tibi Banica, Jacob Patkoand Jared Soll anchoring past offences. Thisyear, while the backfield is still a strength, thestrong arm of returning quarterback TrevorCasey has created an opportunity that the clubhopes to take advantage of.

Add in the skills of receiver Brian Hope andtight end Brad Lyons, and others to emerge asthe season approaches, and a new gameplancouldn’t have come at a better time.

“It’s natural that teams have tendencies butit was well-known that we would run it threetimes out of four,” noted the co-coach. “It wentfrom a good situation where teams knew ourtendencies but started calling out [the play]names when we were lining up.”

Casey, at six-foot-four, had only 36 passattempts during the 2011 regular season, com-pleting 11 while averaging 30 yards a game.

The multisport athlete, who is also a bigpiece to the Fox basketball team, has lookedcomfortable in the new, more air-prone attack.

“Trev is going to be a key part of our team,

and at quarterback, he’s ready to take thatstep,” said McDonnell. “He’s looking good andthrowing the ball well. We’re going with aspread offence with no huddle so that meanswe need to know our plays, react quickly andthrow the ball a ton. It’s going to be a newlook.”

The defence remains strong, bolstered by theaddition of Kyle Deugau, Kyle Sagmoen, JasonShamatutu and Yanda Yano, all part of lastyear’s 4-1 junior squad.

For Fox, the goal is to take another steptowards being a contender for the B.C. crown.

Last year’s squad finished 2-3 in the regularseason and lost their playoff game 31-0 to W.J.Mouat, who advanced all the way to the finalbefore losing 42-35 to Mount Douglas.

To improve on last year’s record, the Ravenswill face severe conditions, thanks to the newlyimplemented crossover schedule.

In late August, the Ravens played host to ahome-and-home series of practices and con-trolled scrimmages with Ottawa’s St. MarkHigh School. While in PoCo, the two teamssimply worked out and ran through drills,though the clubs did get in a controlled scrim-mage while in the nation’s capital. The resultwas a 42-7 Fox win, though no stats were kept.

“They’re in a re-building year with theirprogram, but it was good experience for ourplayers to get them ready for the pre-season,”Kudaba said.

Fox’s first real test is an exhibition match inBlaine, Wash., this Friday, Sept 7, followed by atilt against defending champion Mount Doug.The exhibition season concludes against WestVancouver on Sept. 21, with the regular seasonkicking off against the Western Conference’sNotre Dame, Sept. 28 at Percy Perry Stadium.

The will also crossover to the West to faceVancouver College on Oct. 27.

“It will be one of the toughest schedules weever had … It’s definitely going to be a chal-lenging year but I think our returning playerswill have benefited from last year’s playoff run.Beating Lord Tweedsmuir in overtime (21-20)got us in. That was a real character builder,”said McDonnell.

Pospischil, Durant star inClan’s season-opening winCoquitlam natives Bobby

Pospischil and Lemar Durantleft their imprints all over anOregon football field Fridaynight.

The two local productshelped propel Simon FraserUniversity’s football to anemphatic 51-14 win overPacific University Boxers tokick off the university grid-iron season.

In the case of Pospischil,

the Terry Fox alumnus scam-pered for an 84-yard puntreturn, while also picking up28 yards on his lone rush ofthe day. He also collected 37yards on three passes.

Durant, on the otherhand, picked up 28 yards onfive receptions, including atwo-yard touchdown recep-tion from sophomore Clanquarterback Trey Wheeler.

“It was an interesting

opener in a pretty hostileenvironment,” said headcoach Dave Johnson in a pressrelease. “School just startedhere and the student sectionwas packed, it’s a tough placeto play. The environment isreally exciting and our kids’intensity matched the situa-tion. I was pleased with howphysical we were.”
