SkyTrain chaos strikes again

For the second time in less than a week, a technical issue caused a major disruption with the SkyTrain system after service on two lines was shut down on Monday.

All SkyTrain cars on Metro Vancouver’s Expo and Millennium lines were halted.

The Canada Line was not affected and was operating extra trains to help offset the problems on the other two lines, said the regional transportation authority. Bus bridges between stations were also added.

TransLink advised commuters to make other transportation arrangements while they dealt with the technical issue.

Last week, on Thursday night, SkyTrain service between Burnaby and Surrey was disrupted for several hours, affecting service for thousands of passengers.

TransLink offered an apology Friday morning for the delay.

“We apologize to our customers for this unusual incident, which caused parts of our SkyTrain system to be out of service for such a lengthy period of time,” said Fred Cummings, president of TransLink’s B.C. Rapid Transit Co. subsidiary.

Huge boost to Burnaby economyWanda [email protected]

In many ways, the health of the local film industry was mirrored by the recent health scare of Ron Hrynuik.

Hrynuik, the general manager of Bridge Studios in Burnaby, was skiing at Blackcomb in February 2012 when he collapsed from a heart attack.

Luckily for him, the man skiing

right behind him happened to be a doctor visiting from Seattle. The doctor performed CPR until an automated external defibrillator (AED) arrived to jump-start his heart.

Hrynuik, 54, ended up having quadruple bypass surgery and was off work for a lengthy period of recovery.

That coincided with a downturn in the local film business when productions were slow to arrive at Bridge Studios.

“They didn’t miss me,” the North Burnaby resident said with a laugh.

It was a far cry from 2007 and 2008 when productions were lined up for studio time one after the other. That was followed by a drop in business in 2010 when the Canadian dollar started going up, a jump in bookings in 2011 and then a really bad year in 2012.

“Nobody saw it coming,” recalled Hrynuik, who also serves on the board of the Motion Picture Production Industry Association of

B.C. (MPPIA)Other jurisdictions, including

South Carolina and Louisiana, started offering higher tax credits for film shoots that located there. Ontario began offering a 25 per cent tax credit on all film shoot spending.

British Columbia, meanwhile, has maintained a 33 per cent tax credit on labour costs of local shoots, which generally make up about half of a production’s location shoot budget.

Local film industry back on upswing

WANDA CHOW/NEWSLEADERRon Hrynuik, general manager of Bridge Studios in Burnaby, says the film industry is now back on the upswing after increased competition and a strong Canadian dollar slowed the number of productions coming to B.C. in recent years.

He was once B.C.’s youngest-ever elected

official, and now he hopes to become an MP

in Burnaby.See Page A5

Is Your Child Safe when Grandpa Can't Hear?

Finally! Your long-awaited romantic weekend getaway with your spouse is near. Reservations confirmed? Check. Dancing shoes packed? Check. Babysitter lined up? Check.

Grandma and Grandpa, who better?

Better recheck that babysitter before you head out the door. Before you hire a stranger, you are going to investigate them pretty carefully, aren't you? But your folks usually get a pass, even if they don't hear so well. After all, they love your kids and whose hearing isn't going downhill?

The current statistics from the Better Hearing Institute are that one in six baby boomers have hearing loss and 3 in 10 of people over 65 have hearing loss; seniors in their 80's have greater than a 50% incidence of hearing loss. However, keep in mind that these statistics don't tell the whole story. Almost everyone knows at least one person who has a hearing loss that is affecting communications but resolutely refuses to acknowledge or do anything about it.

If your child's babysitter is one of the 24 million people who need hearing aids and don't have them, there could be serious problems. Effective caregivers need to be environmentally vigilant to assure the safety of your child; the ability to hear is a key component in assuring the safety of your child. The risks of not hearing a smoke or carbon monoxide detector, an intruder, or a child crying in the backyard could be fatal or result in an injury. Spending too much time speech reading while driving can cause a crash, as can failing to hear a siren. Older children have been known to take advantage of an adult's hearing loss to get “permission” to do something the adult wouldn't agree to if they understood what the child said.

Before heading out for that weekend, consider this:

General Child CareA 66-year-old man was aggravated that his wife dragged him in to a hearing evaluation, and decided that he did not need the amplification the audiologist recommended. (His wife just didn't talk right.) 18 months later he was back. While watching his three-year-old grandson, the child had opened the screen door of the living room while his grandfather was there and wandered down the street. A neighbour found and returned him, and the family forced him to get his hearing checked and get amplification if he was ever again to sit with his beloved grandson. After reluctantly getting his hearing aids, he returned two days later, laughing and shaking his head. “What a fool I have been. This is not bad at all.”

If you or a loved one has difficulty hearing, please call Beltone for a complimentary hearing evaluation. Our practitioners have many years of experience helping people hear better. We can even arrange to do the evaluation and the hearing aid fitting in the comfort and convenience of your home.

That meant it was equivalent to 16.5 per cent of overall spending.

Concern about the slowdown led last year to calls for the provincial government to match Ontario’s tax credits and a campaign dubbed “Save B.C. Film.”

Burnaby is home to 62 per cent of purpose-built film studio space in the Lower Mainland, which itself has 88 per cent of all such space in the province.

According to a 2013 city staff report, the industry injected at least $408 million in direct and

spinoff spending into the Burnaby economy in 2012. It directly employed at least 2,425 Burnaby residents as cast and crew, with combined earnings of more than $32.9 million.

Hrynuik stressed Burnaby city hall has been hugely supportive of the industry, knowing what a difference it makes to the economy.

the B.C. AdvAntAge

Despite a highly publicized campaign for increased tax credits, the provincial government stayed put. But Hrynuik said in the end, the local

film industry is recovering based on what it has to offer Hollywood.

Film producers may have tried other locations and their incentives, but appear to be coming back, he said.

In addition to a favourable exchange rate, B.C. is closer to Los Angeles and in the same time zone, compared to Ontario, and the facilities and experienced local crews have a sterling reputation.

“You can film every day of the year here. In Toronto, you’re not going outside in January.”

But in general, the industry is something of a

“revolving door,” Hrynuik said.

While “business is brisk right now” there are spaces available for bookings.

At Bridge Studios, last week four smaller productions started and one big production finished.

Two TV shows will be returning—Once Upon a Time for its fourth season and Motive, a Canadian co-production will be back for a third season.

Those shows take up 70 per cent of the site at Bridge.

Similarly, Paul Clausen, vice president of Mammoth

Studios in Burnaby, said by email that it is currently on a break between productions there.

“Night at the Museum 3, a production which has been occupying the facility since September of last year and has just wrapped a few weeks ago. Prior to that we had Man of Steel shooting in there,” Clausen said.

“There are few sound stage facilities in the world that are large enough to accommodate the size of production like Night at the Museum, Man of Steel, or Planet of the Apes; we are proud to say that

Mammoth is one of them.”Clausen said Mammoth

is “uncertain” what will be scheduled next but noted “20th Century Fox Features holds a long term lease on the facility which indicates their level of commitment to the province.”

Hrynuik said the MPPIA is no longer calling for increased tax credits but is now seeking a full-time presence in Los Angeles to market B.C. to filmmakers.

“We need to be proactive, we need to keep our eyes on [competition from] the rest of the world.”

Kinder Morgan will ask NEB for order if necessaryJeff nagelBlack press

Kinder Morgan Canada will ask the National Energy Board to force a resistant City of Burnaby to give it access to study a possible tunnel through Burnaby Mountain for its proposed Trans Mountain oil pipeline.

President Ian Anderson said the company will also seek formal permission from Burnaby but hopes to secure an order from the NEB within weeks if the city doesn’t relent.

Burnaby Mayor Derek Corrigan has indicated his city won’t cooperate with Kinder Morgan unless it’s forced to do so. The city would have the ability to appeal any NEB order, potentially causing further delay.

“My hope is that we can get the permission of the city,” Anderson said in a media conference call Friday, adding he hopes to repair what has become a “toxic

relationship” with Burnaby as quickly as possible.

The company wants to conduct test drilling into the mountain as part of environmental and geotechnical work to assess whether either a bored tunnel or directionally drilled route is possible there that would avoid the need to run the twinned pipeline near homes to the west of the mountain to reach the Westridge Marine Terminal.

Anderson said he prefers a bored tunnel because that could let Kinder Morgan to deactivate the existing section of pipeline approaching the tanker terminal and relocate it through the mountain as well.

He said he wishes the revised route had been pursued sooner, but called the idea of drilling through Burnaby Mountain an “engineering revelation” that came to project planners as they gained more understanding of the sensitivities along the original route.

A tunnel would drive up the project’s costs, but Anderson

could not say by how much.The proposed route change

unveiled this spring prompted the NEB to this month push back a final recommendation on project approval by seven months to allow more time for study.

That will take it to Jan. 25, 2016 – past the next federal election – but Anderson said he did not expect the delay to

threaten the project.“I don’t consider the election

cycle to be a determinant of the national interest on a project such as ours,” he said, adding the proposed $5.4-billion pipeline would be buffeted by politics regardless.

The company has been under fire from intervenors – including the provincial government and

Lower Mainland regional districts – for failing to adequately answer numerous questions they have posed.

The province said it couldn’t assess the project’s risks without access to its emergency response plan, which Kinder Morgan had refused to publicly divulge as part of the NEB process over security concerns.

Anderson said the company will publicly table by Aug. 1 a sanitized version of the emergency plan that’s stripped of private and confidential information as well elements that could undermine security.

But it’s unclear if that will satisfy the intervenors, because Anderson said Burnaby and the province may already have a copy of the non-confidential plan.

He said it will ultimately be up to the NEB to decide whether or not Kinder Morgan has been right in declining to answer some intervenor questions as irrelevant to the project.

Was BC’s youngest-ever elected official at age 18Wanda [email protected]

At age 18, Terry Beech was B.C.’s youngest-ever elected official when he became a city councillor in Nanaimo in 1999.

Now 15 years later, he’s hoping to get back into public service after winning the nomination Wednesday as the federal Liberal candidate for the new riding of Burnaby North-Seymour.

Beech, now 33, said he was always interested in politics and how the country is run, perhaps unusually so for a teenager. “I paid for cable when I was a teen so I could watch CPAC and pay attention to question period.”

He was coaching his high school debate team when he started using Nanaimo city council agendas to find issues to debate for practice, followed by watching the meetings to see what happened.

That’s when he got the idea that he could run for office, serve the community and make a difference.

His debate team became his campaign team and he was elected to Nanaimo council. “It turned out to be one of the most fulfilling jobs I’ve ever had … You actually can see the difference that you’re making.”

At the end of his three-year term he didn’t seek re-election because he moved to Burnaby

to attend Simon Fraser University. Since then he’s been focused on getting an education and building a career as an entrepreneur and teacher.

Beech has a bachelor degree in business and economics from SFU and an MBA from Oxford

University. He co-founded Beech Partners which works with entrepreneurs, small businesses and startups and Hiretheworld.com which serves as a global graphic design marketplace. And he currently serves as an

adjunct professor in innovation and entrepreneurship at SFU and the University of B.C.

He was always looking for an opportunity to get back into politics but “I wanted to do it as service, not as a job.” That’s why he focused on his business and gaining financial stability first.

He told his wife, Ravi, that he’d wait until after their wedding before he made a decision. They were married a year ago and last Wednesday, Ravi and her mom were busy preparing all the food for the riding’s nomination meeting at Confederation Centre, where Beech was acclaimed.

He feels the new riding, which now includes North Vancouver and North Burnaby, is winnable. He lives in North Burnaby but is familiar with North Van, having attended Capilano University at one point.

So far, the issues of most concern he’s hearing from constituents is the economy and

a need for “a strong focus on an empowered middle class” and making sure “we’re providing improved opportunities for future generations.”

The proposed expansion of the Trans Mountain pipeline, which terminates in the riding, is also a hot topic.

“I’m concerned the Conservative party has been acting more as a cheerleader for pipelines in B.C. instead of a referee,” Beech said. “I’m not convinced the current proposal is the best possible option for Burnaby North-Seymour.”

But he plans to meet with stakeholders to find out all the facts before taking a position.

Now that he’s got the nomination, Beech will start gearing up for the next federal election which will take place in October 2015 or earlier. He’s already taken a leave from UBC and will start his leave from SFU at the end of the year.

As for other potential candidates for Burnaby North-Seymour, the NDP have two people so far who plan to run for the nomination, Trevor Ritchie and Michael Charrois.

The Conservatives have Mike Little, a District of North Vancouver councillor, and Burnaby resident Daren Hancott vying for that party’s nomination.

In the new riding of Burnaby South, current Burnaby-Douglas MP Kennedy Stewart already has the NDP nomination. The Liberals are so far choosing between Adam Pankratz and Ken Beck Lee.

VICTORIA – When the audited public accounts confirmed a $353 million surplus for the last fiscal year, B.C. Liberal political staff were quick to remind reporters of the NDP’s main theme from last year’s election campaign.

Pages of election quotes from almost every NDP MLA were waiting to be distributed. It was a “bogus budget,” one of the more polite tags applied to the government’s pre-election fiscal plan.

“It underestimates the costs in a whole bunch of ministries and we’re going to have to review that because all of the decisions that we propose in our platform will have to be implemented,” said then-leader Adrian Dix, describing the NDP’s plans to tax and spend more.

Skeena MLA Robin Austin targeted health care in the budget debate: “Bearing in mind that our population is actually increasing, bearing in mind that our population is aging, I think it’s very unrealistic to think we can actually limit health care expenditures to 2.7 per cent.”

As it turned out, health care spending grew by just over two per cent. It still went up by $360 million from the previous year, but after annual increases of six or seven per cent had become the norm, this is quite an achievement. New agreements remain to be negotiated with doctors and nurses, so we’re unlikely to see the same cost control results for the current year.

Ottawa’s health care transfer payment formula has changed, and increases are to be capped at three per cent a year by 2016, so this is the kind of spending restraint all provinces are expected to produce.

Education was the only other ministry to receive significant extra funding last year, up $299 million despite continuing enrolment decline. Like health,

the education budget goes up every year, and these increases, along with strong student performance results, expose the rhetoric of the B.C. Teachers’ Federation about a cash-starved system for what it is. 

But the biggest fabrication of last year’s election was the “debt free B.C.” slogan emblazoned on the side of Premier Christy Clark’s campaign bus.

The public accounts confirm that the province’s total debt rose to just over $60 billion, the latest of a series of increases since 2008. The much-touted balanced budget is on the operating side, while the province continues to pile up debt to pay for the Port Mann mega-project, hospitals, schools and other big infrastructure.

Finance Minister Mike de Jong emphasized the difference between capital and operating expenditures.

“We’re borrowing to build as opposed to paying for the groceries,” he said.

“Debt free B.C.” was not an outright misrepresentation, merely one of the most far-

fetched promises ever delivered in the history of B.C. politics. The legislature is to convene in October so the B.C. Liberals can pass a taxation framework for the nascent liquefied natural gas industry, which the government hopes will generate the revenues to ultimately pay off the province’s $60-billion mortgage.

Meanwhile there is more capital debt ahead. The cabinet is expected to green-light the Site C dam on the Peace River this fall, a decade-long project estimated to cost $8 billion. 

Along with the public accounts, the finance ministry released a list of surplus land sales. The sale of 50-odd properties, some of them closed schools, netted the provincial treasury about $310 million, which accounts for most of the surplus.

Was this “selling off the family silverware to try and balance the books,” as now-NDP leader John Horgan termed it before the election? It’s certainly not a revenue source to be matched next year.

B.C. back in black, deep in debt

Two announcements last week underlined just how important the Fraser River is to the local economy and why it’s vital more steps be taken to prevent flooding.

A new report commissioned by the Richmond Chamber of Commerce, in partnership with other chambers in the region, warns a massive flood would cause tens of billions of dollars in damage and catastrophic losses for the 300,000 residents of the floodplain, as well as business and industry.

As well, the Lower Mainland Flood Management Strategy wants an action plan to begin the process of raising dikes and improving other flood defences in the years ahead.

Saskatchewan and Manitoba were recently hit with severe flooding and it’s likely the Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley will see flood damage in the future. In fact, recent studies by the province project that major floods will be more frequent and severe as a result of climate change.

Richmond, being below sea level to begin with, already has an extensive diking system. But with global weather patterns taking a turn to the extreme in recent years, cities on floodplains cannot take flooding for granted. Look at what happened in Calgary and many parts of normally dry Alberta last year, when the Bow River swelled past its banks.

While Richmond may be prepared, many dikes in the Fraser Valley are too low.

Yet if Fraser Valley dikes are strengthened, that means more water will be being directed at Richmond. That’s why a coordinated strategy is essential.

It’s good that business groups and government are taking a proactive approach at a potential future risk. Let’s hope senior governments put their money where there mouths are in doing upgrades now, rather than throwing money at cleaning up a disaster zone in the future.

COMMENTRe: Burnaby finances in good health (NewsLeader, July 18)

It is pretty funny that the NewsLeader did a two-page story on the health of Burnaby’s fiscal reserves.

I checked out the Fraser Institute’s “study” for myself. It presents Burnaby, along with 17 other municipalities, on a list of communities with positive net financial assets. The report does not even include a single sentence about our great city. This is old news. In fact, the fiscal reserves will have grown substantially after the city posted a $100-million surplus in 2013.

This is not an anomaly. Between 2009 and 2013, the city accumulated surpluses in excess of $482 million.

It is not difficult to build a surplus when a municipal government misleads its constituents by overestimating its annual needs and underestimating how much tax it will collect. According to BC Stats estimates, Burnaby’s population was 231,811. Its overall tax levy, which it controls, for city services was $213.5 million in 2013. Consequently, Burnaby had the highest per-person tax levy of the four municipalities in the “strongest financial positions” in the Fraser Institute’s simplistic study.

If you collect more taxes from residents and businesses than other municipalities, as Burnaby does, your net assets will grow faster than your neighbours’.

Is the Burnaby Citizens Association’s approach fiscal caution or fiscal piracy?

Finally, I am disappointed the NewsLeader would allow Coun. Paul McDonell and the Mayor to misrepresent the position of their critics without contacting the critics themselves.

No one is suggesting dipping into the reserves in place of paying taxes.

Clearly, with average annual surpluses of $96 million, the city could have minimized tax increases, maintained its reserve and still self-financed amenities like the Edmonds

Community Centre. The one who pays the piper

calls the tune I suppose.Rick McGowan

THANKS MAYORRe: Pipeline firm to seek hammer over Burnaby

Congratulations and a thank you Mayor Corrigan, you are speaking for us all, and that’s 205,000 citizens of the City of Burnaby. Good stuff.

Not really—it’s commonplace, actually. For example, Nestle wants to privatize water supplies and denies that water is a human right.

These people are sociopaths that view humanity as a resource to be exploited. If our legal machinery was firing

on all cylinders, these people would be automatically ordered to undergo a psychological assessment, and locked away where they can’t do any further damage.

I am so glad Mayor Derek Corrigan is saying what he is saying and doing what he is doing. We don’t need a big Houston corporation owning giant, exclusive right-of-ways that bar the citizens of Burnaby or of the province of B.C. from city-owned park land.

Plus, we don’t want the added higher risk of environmental contamination.

By land or by sea.No extra pipelines or extra

Pacific crossings by tanker traffic in and out of Stanley Park and Burrard Inlet waterways. Dropping their bilge water times two, using up fuel to cross and spewing pollution.

Apartment building destroyed by blaze in 2013Wanda [email protected]

The site of an apartment building with a history of serious fires is now being proposed for a townhouse development.

The four-storey rental complex at 3526 Smith Ave. was destroyed by fire in February 2013.

While no one was killed, several pets in the pet-friendly

building perished.Four years earlier,

in March 2009, a fire broke out in the building’s lobby.

A 60-year-old woman died of her injuries and an eight-year-old boy suffered extensive burns.

Now vacant, the owner of the site at the southeast corner of Smith Avenue and Linwood Street is seeking a rezoning to allow for a three-storey, stacked townhouse project with underground parking. Vehicle access would be from Linwood Street.

The site is designated for medium-density, multi-family residential use in Burnaby’s Broadview Community Plan, said a city staff report.

The proposal consists of 34 units within five townhouse buildings separated from each other by landscaped courtyards and pedestrian walkways.

The report noted

that a Section 219 covenant would be registered on the property to ensure the protection of Spring Brook which runs through Avondale Park next door.

A public hearing on the rezoning will be held Aug. 26 at 7 p.m. in Burnaby city hall council chambers.

F MILY & P RENTING

Children do not often attend dinner parties. Adults with children typically leave the kids with a babysitter when attending a dinner parties with colleagues or friends.

But some hosts choose to make their dinner parties kid-friendly. This can make things easier on guests, who won’t have to go to the trouble or expense of hiring a babysitter for the night. It also can make things easier on hosts with children of their own and don’t want to add finding a sitter to their list of things to do in the days leading up to the party. Kids can add some life to a dinner party, but hosts may to employ a few strategies to ensure their kid-friendly dinner parties are enjoyable for adults and children alike.

FEEd ThE kIds FIRsT

Kids can’t ignore their appetites as long as their adult counterparts, so make sure dinner for the kids is served once all of them have arrived.

Choose kid-friendly fare like pizza or macaroni and cheese so kids are more likely to eat and not complain of hunger later in the evening.

Feeding the kids first also makes it easier for adults to enjoy uninterrupted conversation when it’s their turn to sit down and eat.

kEEP ThE kIds ENTERTaINEd

Whether it’s a movie, a board game or another distraction, finding something to keep the kids entertained throughout the night should be a priority for hosts.

A selection of movies that kids can choose from might be your best bet, as films that are between 90 and 120 minutes long can keep youngsters occupied for much of the night. Let kids watch their movies in a playroom that’s separate from where adult guests will be gathering prior to dinner, and periodically check in on the kids as the night progresses. Provide some snacks like popcorn or even some candy to create a night at the movies atmosphere for kids.

REMINd kIds To bE GRacIous hosTs

When choosing activities for kids, remind your own children that it’s their responsibility to be gracious hosts, even if that means playing games they aren’t interested in

or watching movies they have already seen. Let youngsters know in advance that if they fulfill their responsibilities at hosts they can choose how to spend the following day or weekend.

choosE aN aduLT ENTREE ThaT’s sIMPLE To PREPaRE

No matter how well behaved kids may be before and during a dinner party, hosts should not add to their already considerable workload by preparing an especially complicated meal for their adult guests. Keep things simple, especially if you are preparing a separate meal for the kids. Much of the stress of hosting a dinner party comes with preparing the meal, and that may only prove more stressful if you are preparing two meals while simultaneously catering to the needs of your youngest guests.

coNsIdER hIRING a babYsITTER

Sometimes hiring a babysitter makes sense even when mom and dad are home. A babysitter can look after the kids while the parents are elsewhere in the home enjoying a good meal and great company.

Adults attending the party with their children can split the cost of a babysitter, even if he or she charges extra to look after several kids at once.

Hosting a kid-friendly dinner party can make for a memorable night for parents and their children.

Hosts can make the night even better by employing several strategies to make the party feel like a more traditional affair even if the kids are in the next room.

Hosting a kid-friendly dinner party

When hosting a kid-friendly dinner party, hosts can serve youngsters a dish like pizza or macaroni and cheese to ensure they don’t complain of hunger later in the night.

Kolby SolinskyBlack Press

Coach Hugh Podmore and Team Canada played host to the world last weekend at the 2014 Quidditch Global Games, a sort-of world cup for the once-fictional sport invented by JK Rowling.

“It’s a huge honour. It’s very good to be the host nation,” Podmore said on Saturday at the all-day event at Burnaby Lake Sports Complex West.

“We’ve been able to have a lot of fans come out here and support us, which has been fantastic.”

Team USA won its second-straight Global Games, destroying Australia in the final, 210-0. Canada won bronze at its own event, and fared well against the eventual champion

Americans, losing 130-70 in the first match of the day.

The Canucks then beat Harry Potter’s

nation, the United Kingdom, 60-40 in the third-place game.

“Canadian Quidditch is really, really strong,” said Podmore.

“This is our chance to get out there and prove it.”

It was a homecoming for Canada’s captain, who went to

high school in South Surrey at Southridge School. Podmore then went on to university at McGill in Montreal—where he first picked up Quidditch—and now lives in Toronto as the coach of his own national squad, where he also plays for Valhalla Quidditch club.

“I’ve been playing Quidditch for a while, all my friends think I’m a little bit silly,” he said. “But it’s nice to come back with Team Canada and have this tournament here and show everyone what it is that we really do at the top level game.”

Other nations at the event included Belgium, France and Mexico.

BRITISH COLUMBIA GOLFBurnaby’s Michael Belle swings away at the B.C. Amateur last week.

Burnaby’s Michael Belle had a B.C. Amateur Golf Championship in his grasp before losing a five-hole playoff to Jordan Lu, 17, of Vancouver on Friday.

Belle led for much of the tournament at the Seymour Golf and Country Club in North Vancouver. He had a three-shot lead after 11 holes in the final round. He even went into the 72nd hole of the four-round tournament with a one-stroke lead but Lu, who started the day four strokes behind Belle, made a birdie to force a sudden death playdown.

“It was tough coming down the stretch. My nerves got the best of me coming down 15, 16, 17, 18. But other than that I was pretty happy with the way I played,” Belle told Dan Russell

on his Sportstalk Sunday Golf show on CISL. “The last (playoff) hole I had a 12-footer

to win and ended up three-putting to lose. It was a tough way to lose, but that’s how it goes sometimes.

“You try to put that tough 12-foot putt out of your mind, but I didn’t and I ended up missing that three-foot putt (for par) in the end.”

Belle, who just finished his senior season playing for the Simon Fraser University men’s golf team, shot an even-par 284 (69-71-71-73).

Alex Francois, 16, of Burnaby finished tied for fourth just two strokes back of Belle and Lu. Francois and Roy Kang, 15, beat out 64 teams to win the best-ball competition with a combined 19-under 265.

Both Belle and Francois recorded hole-in-ones on the first day of play last Tuesday.

The Burnaby Lakers moved into second place in the Western Lacrosse Association and clinched a playoff spot with a pair of one-goal wins on the weekend.

The Lakers began at home by edging the Coquitlam Adanacs 7-6 in overtime at Bill Copeland Arena on Friday. They then went to Maple Ridge on Sunday to nip the Burrards 8-7 and leapfrog over them into second place. Burnaby is 9-6-0 with three games left, one more than Maple Ridge which is 8-7-1. The Victoria Shamrocks (13-1-2) have already locked up first place.

Casey Jackson scored the only goal of the 10-minute overtime Friday on the power play 2:33

in. Jason Jones had two goals and an assist with Robert Church getting a goal and three assists. Other Burnaby scorers were Tyler Digby, Dane Stevens and Scott Jones. Tyler Richards stopped

39 of 45 Coquitlam shots to get the win.He stopped 33 of 40 in Maple Ridge

on Sunday while Jackson had a goal and five assists. Scott Jones notched two goals and three assists with other goals going to Digby, Justin Salt, Stevens, Shaun Dhaliwal and Jason Jones.

The Lakers will travel to Vancouver Island to take on the Shamrocks on Friday and the Nanaimo Timbermen (4-10-1) Saturday. They finish the WLA regular season by taking on Coquitlam at home Aug. 1.
