There aren’t many people who can legitimatelysay they took part in an event that changed thecourse of history.
But you can count John “Doc” Cumbers andGeorge Thayer as members of that exclusivegroup. The two Coquitlam residents are D-Dayveterans who will be taking part in a memor-ial luncheon on Sunday, June 8 at the RoyalCanadian Legion, Branch 263 Coquitlam.
The lunch commemorates the 70th anniver-
sary of D-Day, a moment in time Thayer remem-bers with pinpoint accuracy. A naval engineer,he was aboard a mid-sized landing craft chargedwith dropping off about 200 troops on the beach-es of Normandy, France.
Thayer remembers the vessel remaining rela-tively unscathed as the troops charged off theship and onto Juno Beach. However, the boatshifted and listed after the mass exit, causing itto rock and sway almost uncontrollably.
The motors were off, which further destabil-ized the craft, and the boat swung directly into

May proved to be a busy month for Coquitlam Mounties,who conducted a campaign targeting high-risk drivers in theTri-Cities.
The force handed out more than 1,100 ticketsfor a number of driving offences during themonth-long campaign.
“We focused our enforcement on high-riskdriving behaviours last month to highlight partof what we do on a daily basis,” RCMP Cpl. NeilRoemer said in a statement. “It was to raisepublic awareness on the kinds of behavioursthat negatively affect the safety of drivers, cyc-lists and pedestrians in our communities.”
A further breakdown of the fines shows 20per cent of tickets were for distracted driv-ing, 30 per cent for unsafe driving and otherinfractions at intersections, and 13 per cent forspeeding. Another 53 drivers were also caughtfor not having a driver’s licence. And a number of drivers inthe Tri-Cities found out the hard way what happens when youdon’t follow the rules of the road around a major construction
zone — and pedestrians could be next.Recently, Coquitlam RCMP staged a two-day traffic blitz tar-
geting drivers and pedestrians in the area around CoquitlamCentre near construction of the Evergreen Line.
Police handed out 48 fines to motorists for various drivinginfractions, including a handful of tickets in front of the mallwhere a new pedestrian light has been installed.
The fines were given out in just a two-hour period.Volunteers also handed out more than 1,000 cards with
pedestrian and road safety tips.RCMP Const. Jamie Chung said the enforce-
ment took place in an effort to make peopleaware of traffic changes in the area.
“In a situation like this where there are majorchanges in the area, we want everyone to followthe rules: drivers, pedestrians and cyclists,” hetold the Tri-Cities NOW.
“The rules are out there for a reason, and thereason is safety.”
In April, due to the construction of theSkyTrain line, a new pedestrian light wasinstalled on Barnet Highway, mid-blockbetween Pinetree Way and Johnson Street infront of the mall.
At the time, local Mounties indicated theywould be conducting traffic enforcement in the
area for the foreseeable future.While police have been merely educating pedestrians on the
changes in recent weeks, that’s likely to end.
Chung suggested officers could start handing out fines topedestrians who aren’t following the rules of the road.
The fines could range from $109 to $121 for violations likedisobeying a traffic control signal or failing to use a cross-walk.
Chung also noted police will be targeting the area forenforcement over the next few months.

It’s clearly out with the oldand in with the new whenit comes to the Port Mannbridge project.
For months, crews havebeen painstakingly dismant-ling the old Port Mann, whileputting the finishing toucheson the new span.
A major milestone in thedismantling process willbegin in a few weeks, as crewsstart removing girders fromthe iconic orange structure.
Greg Johnson, a spokes-person for TI Corp., the com-pany tasked with overseeingthe Port Mann/Highway 1Improvement Project, saidpeople are going to notice the
work when the arches start todisappear.
“It will be a big deal whenthey do get the first pieceactually missing from thearch,” he told the Tri-CitiesNOW.
But as Johnson explained,taking down a bridge is noeasy task. He said engineersare going back to the bridge’soriginal blueprints to studyhow to take it down.
They’re also being extracautious, especially in keep-ing the structure steady as it’staken apart.
“Dismantling this bridge isas complex as building a newone, if not more so,” Johnsonsaid. “No one has dismantledthis exact bridge before.”
Leading up to the majorwork, crews have dismantledthe approaches to the old
bridge. That work was neces-sary for crews to finish build-ing two additional lanes.
In all, the Port Mann will bea 10-lane span. Officials havestated the two additionallanes are morefor future cap-acity.
The newbridge, whichis part of the$ 3 . 3 - b i l l i o ncost of thePort Mann/Highway 1ImprovementP r o j e c t ,opened inD e c e m b e r2012.
L a s tSeptember, the new CapeHorn Interchange, whichwas described as the most
complicated part of the entireproject, was also opened totraffic, while work on widen-
ing the high-way throughto Vancouvercontinued forthe rest of theyear.
As for theold Port Mann,Johnson saidcrews will geta better senseof when thebridge will bec o m p l e t e l ygone fromthe landscape
after the summer, but heexpects the dismantling tocontinue through 2014.

Dave Sands offered up a bit of good and badnews at Tuesday’s school board meeting.
School District 43’s principal of energy andsustainability, Sands outlined the district’sCarbon Neutral Action Report for 2013, whichpoints to a 20-per-cent reduction in green-house gas (GHG) emissions since 2010.
Despite those positive reductions, however,the district had to pay more than $250,000 tothe Pacific Carbon Trust for emissions it wasresponsible for last year.
That payment comes against a backdrop ofa $13-million budget deficit for the currentschool year.
“We’ve been working at this for five years,”Sands said. “As far as carbon neutrality goes,it comes with a cost. But the great thing iswe’re seeing improvement, we’re seeing con-servation, we’re seeing awareness and we’reseeing a growth in getting better.”
The district has made positive strides inreducing GHG emissions in each year since2010, reducing emissions by more than 2,200metric tons since that time.
Sands attributed those yearly decreases to
three factors: a change in behaviour by staffand students, lighting and HVAC retrofits, andthe leadership shown by both BC Hydro andthe district’s administrative team.
Sands noted the district has paid roughly $1million to the trust since 2010, though thosecosts have been offset by close to $750,000 ingrants the district has received to implementenergy-saving measures.
Each year, public institutions like schooldistricts, hospitals and post-secondary insti-tutions pay into the trust to ensure carbonneutrality. The local school district pays $25per metric ton to help offset emissions tied
to electrical consumption, natural gas, fleetvehicle emissions and paper.
Supt. Tom Grant noted the number of boxesof paper used across the district on an annualbasis could create a line stretching from thedistrict offices on Poirier Street to the northend of the parking lot at Coquitlam Centre.
It was also noted, however, that roughly500 boxes of paper were saved last year.
“We’re going to really try, through our printstrategy, to reduce that consumption, whichsaves money but also saves a lot of carbonemissions,” Grant said.

a German explosive placed in the water nearthe landing zone.
“When we touched that shell, it blew a five-and-a-half-foot hole in the mid ship,” Thayersaid. “In about 20 minutes, she was sittingsunk on the beach.”
Thayer and other crew mem-bers remained on the beachfor close to three days beforesalvaging enough supplies torepair the ship. After the mod-est repair job was complete, heand his shipmates made theirway back across the EnglishChannel to England.
A few more domestic deploy-ments followed — mainly onCanada’s eastern seaboard —and within a few years, Thayerwas back in B.C., where he set-tled into a 40-plus year careeras a shipmaster.
“I’ve enjoyed my whole life,” said Thayer,91. “[Veterans] seem to be really respected.But I think too much about it sometimes. Inever stop thinking about the corpses wepulled out of the surf.”
For Cumbers, his job was to provide safepassage to those like Thayer, who were in the
landing crafts, ships and other vessels.Cumbers was a tail gunner with the Royal
Canadian Air Force and was called into dutyone day before the massive invasion on theFrench coastal town.
“We flew a mission the night of [June 5],because D-Day was supposed to be on thefifth,” he recalled. “So we bombed the rail
yards and then we came backand they told us, ‘OK, you guysdid your job, so take some timeoff and go to London.’ Andthat’s what I did.”
Cumbers’ extensive career inthe Armed Forces also saw himserve in the Royal CanadianNavy once the Second WorldWar ended.
He then settled into a careeras a firefighter in Vancouverbefore moving to Coquitlamin the late 1970s. Every year,June 6 offers him a chance toreflect.
“It brings back memories,”said Cumbers, 88. “Our crew became a teamand the team worked well together. We didour job. We got shot at and we shot at them.We dropped bombs on them. It was a differenttype of life for us.”
Sunday’s event is for veterans only, and isnot open to the public.

Warning issuedafter13die from fentanylJeremy [email protected]
Drug users in the Tri-Cities,and specifically in Coquitlam,are being warned about thedangers of the powerfulnarcotic fentanyl, after anincreased number of deathsrelated to the drug have beenrecorded inthe region sofar this year.
The BCC o r o n e r sService sentout a warningWe d n e s d a y,noting it hasrecorded 13deaths in theFraser Healthregion relatedto the drug inthe first fourmonths of2014. There were 12 fentanyldeaths in all of 2013 and sixin 2012. Two deaths wererecorded in Coquitlam.
Theconcernispeoplemightbe taking fentanyl under theimpression they are takingheroin or oxycodone.
The coroners service saidpeople are unlikely to recog-nize the presence of fentanylas it does not appear any dif-ferent from other drugs like
heroin and can even be soldin similar packaging.
Fraser regional coronerLiana Wright pointed out thatalthough the deaths wererecorded in Coquitlam, thedrugs may have been pur-chased in another commun-ity. She also noted the major-
ity of peoplewho died hada history of sig-nificant druguse, while asmaller num-ber were con-sidered recrea-tional users.
In all, ninemen and fourwomen havedied from thedrug. Wrightalso suggestedthe numbers
could go up even more, as thecoroners service is awaitingconfirmation on other cases.
“We [BC Coroners Service]recognize, due to addictionand personal choices thatindividuals will make, theywill use illicit drugs,” Wrighttold the Tri-Cities NOW.
“What we do ask, if peopledo choose to use illicit drugs,they do so where medicalassistance is readily available
to them or they’re in the com-pany of a reliable person whocan render assistance.”
She said the coroners ser-vice is reaching out to localsocial agencies and policewith the warning.
Coquitlam Mounties indi-cated they are aware of thespike in overdose deaths andthe advisory from the cor-oner, but added there hasn’tbeen any significant seizureof fentanyl in the city.
“We would like to remindeveryone that there is nosuch thing as a ‘good batch’ ofstreet drugs,” said RCMP Cpl.Jamie Chung. “Every timesomeone uses illicit drugslike fentanyl, it representsa potentially serious healthrisk.”
Fentanyl is described as asynthetic opioid that is sig-nificantly more toxic thanmorphine. The drug poses aparticularly high risk to newopiate users, who can die ontheir first use. Even handlingfentanyl can be risky as it canbe absorbed though the skin.
Early signs of fentanyl useinclude severe sleepless-ness, slow heartbeat, troublebreathing, cold clammy skinand trouble walking and talk-ing.

The man behind the wheelof an SUV that killed two Tri-Cities women is appealing hisconviction and sentence.
On Wednesday, severalmedia outlets reported CorySater’s lawyer had filed fora notice of appeal of hisconvictions related to thedrinking and driving deaths
of Charlene Reaveley andLorraine Cruz.
In May, a Supreme Courtjudge sentenced Sater to 7.5years in jail on a total of sevencharges, including impaireddriving causing death andbodily harm, dangerous driv-ing causing death and bodilyharm, and leaving the sceneof an accident.
Sater was also handed an
eight-year driving ban, to beserved after his release fromprison.
Calls by the Tri-CitiesNOW to Sater’s lawyer, RishiGill, were not immediatelyreturned.
Reaveley and Cruz werekilled on Feb. 19, 2011, whenthey were hit by a jeep drivenby Sater as they stood on theside of Lougheed Highway.
A third person, Cruz’s boy-friend Paulo Calimbahin, wasseriously injured.
Reaveley’s husband Dansaid he wasn’t surprised tohear Sater is appealing hisconviction.
“That’s the type of personhe is,” Reaveley told the Tri-Cities NOW, adding he washoping Sater would just dohis time.
“The guy’s kind of a loser.He doesn’t have anybody else.He’s all about himself.”
Reaveley said he’s confi-dent in the court’s decision,adding he thought the judgewas thorough.
He said he will be moreupset if Sater gets out on bailwhile he awaits his appeal,noting he’ll be watching theresults of the appeal closely.
During trial, Sater wasfound to have been drink-ing at a pub the night of thecrash, downing as many assix double rye and cokes andtwo shots. He left the bar togo home and get more moneyto continue drinking.
He didn’t have a licenceand was under court order,due to a 2010 assault convic-tion, not to consume alcohol.

Studentwalkouts smaller than expectedJohn [email protected]
Pockets of student-led pro-tests broke out across SchoolDistrict 43 Wednesday, butthe volume of students whoparticipated was far short ofestimates circulating on socialmedia earlier this week.
The B.C. Student Walkoutfor Students started as anonline campaign by a pair ofLower Mainland students lastweekend, and the Facebookpage organizing the walkoutsuggested more than 10,000kids would participate. Butwhile some protests did takeplace, predominantly at mid-dle and secondary schools,it was generally business asusual in the Tri-Cities.
“It was pretty low key in theCoquitlam school district,”school board chair MelissaHyndes said Thursday.
Rachel Rozanski helpedorganize one of the largerwalkouts in the district, asclose to 100 students fromMaple Creek Middle Schooltook part.
Though Rozanski hasalready left the public educa-tion system — she’s studyingat the Emily Carr University ofArt and Design — her young-er sister is a middle schoolstudent in the Tri-Cities, andher mother is an elementary
school teacher.“I see, on both ends, how
much these cuts are affectingpeople,” she said. “It’s justhuge.”
Organizers of the B.C.Student Walkout for Studentsstressed that Wednesday’sprotest be non-partisan. Thatwasn’t the case at MapleCreek, as organizers andstudents clearly sided withteachers.
“It was more in support ofthe teachers’ cause becausethe teachers are supportingthe students,” Rozanski said.“All the cuts that are affect-ing the students are whatthe teachers are fightingagainst.”
Her younger sister Sarahspoke to how the ongoinglabour standstill is affectingnot just her studies, but herability to take part in extra-curricular activities.
“Many of my friends andI were heavily involvedin team sports thathave been suddenly cut,”Sarah wrote in an e-mail tothe Tri-Cities NOW. “Thereare kids that take sports ser-iously here and now [they]can’t be involved in them atall. Clubs, teams, field tripsand any other extra activitiesare suffering.”
As far as punishment ordiscipline goes, Hyndes saidthat will likely be determined
on a student-by-student basis.Those who participated couldface a verbal warning, a callto their parents or an in-classsuspension.
“It’s an individual disci-pline process per school,”Hyndes said. “The severity ofit depends on the child.”
Meanwhile,BCTFpresidentJim Iker hinted Wednesday atthe prospect of a full-scalestrike that could start in twoweeks. Iker made the claimafter a Labour RelationsBoard ruling upheld the 10-per-cent pay cut for teacherswho are picketing.
Education Minister Peter
Fassbender issued a state-ment early Thursday con-demning the BCTF’s strikesuggestion.
“There is no bottomless pit
of money,” he said, “and therotating strikes are certainlynot going to help teachers’and support workers’ pocket-books.”

Ino longer care who is at fault forthe B.C. teacher-government dis-pute. On some level, I do, but thatpoint has passed. I just want thisto end.
As many 12th graders across the prov-ince prepare for finals and provincialexams, the uncertainty of their aca-demic future dangles precariously abovetheir heads.
Provincial exams may not get marked,and those all too important report cardsmay not get written — an obvious prob-lem with universities requiring highschool transcripts.
For post-secondary institutionsin B.C., it’s not as big of a problem.However, high school students fromB.C. are now at a disadvantage when itcomes to out-of-province universities.
The dispute doesn’t solely affectacademics. It affects extracurricularactivities as well. Although the BCPublic School Employers’ Association(BCPSEA) claims that teachers remain“unrestricted in their ability to partici-pate in extracurricular and volunteeractivities,” teachers are limited in thetime they have to be at school.
They cannot be on school groundsmore than 45 minutes before classesbegin and can only stay 45 minutes afterclasses end. They’re also not allowedon school property during their breaks.With these time constraints in place, it’snearly impossible for teachers to engagein extracurricular activities on top oftheir classroom duties.
The marking of assignments andtests that’s usually completed outside ofschool time must now be done in the 45minutes before and after school, alongwith photocopying duties and tutorials.However, the BCPSEA maintains thelockout does not interfere with extra-curricular activities, including thosethat take place on school property at
“any time.”Some argue that coursework can be
graded during class, but that time is foractual instruction.
Unless students are occupied witha quiz, exam or in-class assignments,teachers really don’t have room in theirclassroom schedule to grade schoolworkat school. Whoever came up with theserules clearly doesn’t understand thehours teachers put in outside of theirregular hours.
Besides the regular athletics andclubs, events for high school graduatesare somewhat tainted by the teacher-government conflict. Of course, com-mencement and prom still take place,but it’s different.
All of the amazing teachers who havetaught me throughout my four yearsof high school weren’t present at com-
mencement and will not be present atprom. However, these problems aretrivial compared to the ones that will befaced by the students who aren’t gradu-ating this year.
Important services and programssuch as music, special needs, librar-ies, cafeterias and school buses are injeopardy, and that’s not fair. It’s not fairto the students, and it’s not fair to themany people who will lose their jobs,adding to the number of people whowere already let go.
The conflict between the BCTF andthe B.C. government has more repercus-sions than we can imagine. This is notjust about the disgruntled high schoolseniors whose graduation traditionswere altered because of the lockout.
This is about the teachers who losttheir jobs. This is about those teachers’families, who will no doubt strugglewith a lighter wallet.
This is about the students who willfeel the full effect of stubborn adults’decisions next year and the years tocome — because there is no doubt in mymind that this is far from over.
Abigail Ileto is a Grade 12student at Dr. Charles BestSecondary in Coquitlam.
Anyone who’s battled a drug addiction, or knowssomeone who has, understands just how hardit can be to beat the disease.
And unfortunately, losing the battle oftenmeans ending up in a body bag.
Case in point: just this week, the BC Coroners Serviceissued a warning to drug users in the Fraser Health region,including the Tri-Cities, to be careful when using opiateslike heroin and oxycodone.
The coroners service believes the extremely dangerousdrug fentanyl is behind the overdose deaths of 13 people inthe region so far this year, including two in Coquitlam.
In the first four months of 2014, the drug claimed morethan twice as many lives as in a 12-month period just twoyears ago.
The synthetic drug, which can be deadly to touch, canappear to look like heroin but is far more dangerous toconsume. The worry is people are buying other drugs andunknowingly ingesting fentanyl.
In some cases, the dead were recreational users, but themajority were described as having a history of significantdrug use.
Many people will ignore the warning because it doesn’thave any impact on their daily lives, while others may evenbe pleased a few less addicts are walking the Earth andusing up resources.
Maybe even more unfortunate, the 13 people have basic-ally become a statistic in a news story.
They no doubt had families who cared for them and whoare now in mourning.
But we don’t see this as a right-versus-wrong issue, nor acall for more enforcement or even social programs.
Instead, the warning is just a stark reminder of wherethe path of drug addiction can end.

HOWMANYHOURS DOESA TEACHERWORK?
I am truly disappointed in theBCTF, the government, the LRBand the courts for not being ableto find a better way to resolve theissues in our education system.
What is truly confusing is try-ing to sort out what a teacher’sjob requirements truly are; thatis, what is considered paid workand what is considered volun-tary. The teachers will have us allbelieve that they work 14-hourdays because of all the extra workthey do, but when it is convenientfor them they say the extra workis voluntary and they should notbe expected to do it.
So, let’s start with sorting outthis confusion. Pay teachers anhourly wage and pay them forthe work they are required to do.Then pay them over 12 monthsinstead of over 10.
Once this is done, we need tolook at their hours of work andensure that their time at schoolis eight hours per day, like theaverage worker. They should notbe permitted to take work homewith them except on an excep-tional basis.
I think implementing thesesuggestions would allow the pub-lic (i.e. taxpayers and parents)to have a better understandingof the work that is required to beperformed. It would reduce theongoing ambiguity about fieldtrips, grad ceremonies, sportsdays, etc. being cancelled, wherestudents and parents always getcaught in the middle.
E.R. FoxhillPort Moody
STUDENTSDESERVEBETTER
As a mother of four sons whowere raised on public education,B.C. style, and a special educationteacher of 30 years, I believe Ispeak from an informed positionon the current state of affairs inB.C.
It is easy to lose sight of what isat stake when so much attentionand energy is caught up in partialfacts devoid of historical context,inflammatory rhetoric and div-isive strategy.
Quite simply, public educa-tion is about democracy. It’sabout tolerance, understanding,patience, equal opportunity and
community. These qualities arequickly eroding under the cur-rent conditions in schools: kind oflike the polar ice cap with globalwarming.
I am walking the picket linebecause of this; because I encoun-ter, daily, the inequalities thatour children face, and I work veryhard to level the playing field.
We teachers are burning out,folks! It is becoming increasinglydifficult to inspire, to assure ourkids that the world is navigable,that it holds promise. Inequity,from the minute these childrenenter school, becomes their lifenarrative. They deserve better.They deserve resources, atten-tion, care and passionate teach-ers who are equipped to supportthem in their dreams.
I’ll remind you that the BCSupreme Court affirmed this, in arecent court ruling. Governmenthas chosen to appeal this.How many times and differentways must children’s rights bedescribed before they get it?
I speak from the heart-wrench-ing perspective of the front lines.I have countless tragic stories toshare, but the main point is this:if you choose to inform yourselfabout the current state of affairsin public education in B.C. viasound bites and political rhetoric,
you are like a blind man describ-ing the elephant based on howthe trunk feels in your hand. Joinus on the picket line, and let’stalk.

‘AN ACTOFCOMPASSION’
Re: “Family grateful forofficer’s extra help,” Friday,May 23.
I hope your writer JeremyDeutsch’s statement at the endof his article stating, “not to beoutdone … the manager refusedto take his money,” was simply aneffort to be cute.
In contrast, the Tri-City Newswas more complimentary ofSuperstore’s efforts. After all, theevening staff opened the storeand served the officer at 3 a.m.then subsequently donated the$150 child car seat.
“Not to be outdone” impliescompetition or a desire for recog-nition, which I do not believe tohave been Superstore’s intention.
I am convinced it was an act ofcompassion and good neighbour-liness on their part.

Arecentbear-versus-vehicleconflict is serving as anotherreminder that the Tri-Cities is
still bruin country.On Tuesday morning,
police and conservation offi-cers were called after a vanhit a bear in the slow lanealong Lougheed Highway
near the Riverview grounds.RCMP Cpl. Jamie Chung
said the bear was able to runaway and make it to a grassyarea near Orchid Drive.
However, when officerscaught up to the full-grownbear, it was determined theanimal was too wounded andhad to be put down. Cubswere apparently also sightedin the area, but after offi-cers searched the area theyweren’t found.
The driver co-operatedwith police, and Chung saidpolice aren’t sure where thebear was coming from, butnoted it’s unusual to see onein the area near traffic at thattime of day.
“Bears don’t usually gonear noises,” he said.
There have been plentyof bear sightings recent-ly, including near the PortMoody Public Library andby Walton Elementary inCoquitlam. The school sentout these tweets Wednesdaymorning: “Bear sighting onWalton avenue. @cqrcmpcontacted. 8:40.”
“Thanks @cqrcmp forresponding to bear sightings.All clear! 9:15.”
Police are reminding resi-dents to use their bear-proofgarbage cans and clean upany attractants in their back-yards, to prevent furtherbear-related incidents.

The Financial CycleThe City of Coquitlam, like other municipalities –and perhaps like you or your family – takes different steps throughout the year toplan and manage its budget. Unlike personal budgets, however, the City is subjectto legislated processes and reporting rules to ensure the accuracy and transparencyof our financial planning.
Each year in the late spring, we are required to publish an Annual Report forthe previous year. This report contains important information related to Cityoperations including a financial overview, highlights and accomplishments.
Importantly, the Annual Report also includes the Consolidated FinancialStatements and Auditors’ Report, which verify whether the statements fairlypresent the financial position of the City and the results of its operations.
From a practical perspective, our Annual Report reflects upon the previous year andevaluates whether we successfully accomplished the goals and strategic directionset out in our integrated planning framework. This process is comprised of threeseparate but complementary planning processes:
� strategic planning - the highest level statement of the City’s aspirations for thefuture developed with a long timeframe in mind
� business planning - translates the high level strategic goals into priorities andassociated work items established annually by Council
� financial planning - provides the resourcing strategy to support the strategicand business plans and includes both operating and capital components
How does this help Council, City staff and residents? It is a tool and guidethat ensures the City’s activities and spending are in line with its strategicvision. The Annual Report tells us howwe’re doing. Find out more atcoquitlam.ca/annualreport.
Coquitlam CurrentIn accordance with Sections 97-99 of the CommunityCharter the City of Coquitlam is pleased to share its 2013Annual Report. The report will be considered by Council attheir Council-in-CommitteeMeeting to be held June 23, 2014at 2:00 p.m. at Coquitlam City Hall Council Committee Room.

Walk for values plannedJohn [email protected]
Love, truth, peace, non-violence and right conductwill be the themes highlight-ed by a local group participat-ing in this weekend’s TeddyBear Picnic inCoquitlam.
M e m b e r sof the SriSathya SaiBaba Centreof Coquitlamwill stage theirannual Walkfor HumanValues onSunday, June8, beginning atCoquitlam CityHall.
A c c o r d i n gto event organizer LindaMackintosh, Sunday’s walkreflects the spiritual teach-ings of Indian-based guruSathya Sai Baba, though theyare not rooted in any particu-lar religion.
Instead, Mackintosh said,the group has members fromacross the religious spectrum— Hindus, Sikhs, Christiansand Buddhists — who alignthemselves around the fivetenets of Baba’s teachings:love, truth, peace, non-vio-lence and right conduct.
“Instead of asking people
to pledge money, whichmost walks do, we are neverallowed to ask for money,”said Mackintosh, a Coquitlamresident. “We ask people topledge to practise one of thefive human values to make
the world abetter place.”
Mackintoshand othershave beeninvolved withtheTeddyBearPicnic since2007. Thefirst Walk ForHuman Valuestook placein Torontoin 2002 anda t t r a c t e dupwards of
6,000 participants.“The idea of the walk is to
bring awareness to people’slives and, hopefully, theywill become more mindful,”Mackintosh said. “One of SaiBaba’s more famous quotesis that ‘There is only one reli-gion — the religion of love.’”
This year’s Walk for HumanValues kicks off with partici-pants meeting in the parkinglot of Coquitlam City Hall,located at 3000 GuildfordWay, at 8:45 a.m. on Sunday.From there, the walk will lastuntil about noon.
There are many moreactivities planned in asso-ciation with the Teddy BearPicnic and Grande Parade,Coquitlam’s largest kid-friendly event of the year.
Sunday’s festivities kickoff with the Grande Parade,which runs from 9:45 to 11a.m. The parade will travelwest on Burlington Driveto Pacific Street, north onPacific to Guildford Way,east on Guildford to TownCentre Boulevard, east onTown Centre to Pinetree Way,and north on Pinetree to theTeddy Bear Picnic at TownCentre Park.
Admission to picnic is $3,
with children younger thanthree getting in for free.
The picnic runs from 11a.m. to 4 p.m. and featuresa range of live music andentertainers, including: TonyProphet, Theatrix, Mr. I,Circus West, Chris Hamiltonand Ish da Fish.

Today’s market-place is saturatedwith almost everytype of bottledor canned sauce
imaginable.Homemade sauces, in
many households, have takena back seat to the ready-made varieties that seem tofit into our hectic lifestyles.
When we think of mak-ing sauces from scratch,many people conjure up theimage of a thick gelatinousmass from one of our worstschool cafeteria nightmares.
However, sauces from scratchdon’t have to be difficult, andcan easily be the best part ofa dish.
Traditionally, any sauce isusually made up from one of
five leading sauces or “moth-er sauces.”
These leading saucecategories are béchamel,velouté, brown, tomato andhollandaise.
Don’t let any fancy Frenchnames scare you.
Béchamel is merely a whitesauce made from adding milk
to a white roux (a mixture offat and flour that has cookedjust long enough to eliminateany starchy taste).
Velouté is made from add-ing a white stock (such aschicken, veal or fish) to awhite roux.
Brown sauce is made byadding a brown stock (beef)to a brown roux (fat/flourmixture that has cooked overlow heat to intensify colourand taste).
Tomato sauce is a mixtureof tomatoes, stock and some-times a roux, and hollandaiseis a mixture of butter and eggyolks.
Although there are tech-niques and flavourings thatalso go along with creatingany of these base sauces,they are basically the founda-tions of many correspondingsauces.
For example, a cheesesauce is originated from add-ing cheese to a béchamel;and a hollandaise sauce withshallots, white wine vinegar,and tarragon is a béarnaisesauce.
Sauce making, however, isnot always confined withinthe parameters of these lead-ing sauces. There are manysauces that do not fall intothe gamut of these five maincategories. Some exampleswould be pan gravies, reduc-tions, compound butters andpurées.
Pan gravies are just saucesthat are made from the drip-pings from cooked meat orpoultry. Extra stock/brothand a thickener are addedto extend the flavours andto coat the finished meatproduct.
Meat that is served “au jus”(pronounced “oh zhoo”) isserved with its natural clearunthickened juices; howeverextra stock/broth is usu-ally added to ensure there isenough to go around.
Reductions are simplywhat their name indicates;liquids that are naturallythickened and intensifiedthrough the evaporation ofwater to create a sauce. Someof the best sauces result fromletting naturally occurringliquids in a pan just cookdown. Simply season withsalt and pepper and serve.
Many people don’t con-sider compound butters tobe a sauce, but when melted,it is a flavourful liquid thatenhances a finished dish. Themost popular of all flavouredbutters in the chef industryis “maitre d’hotel” butter(pronounced “may truh dohtel”). It is solid butter thatis traditionally mixed withchopped parsley, lemon juiceand white pepper. It is thenrolled into a cylindrical shapeand stored in the refrigeratoror freezer until needed. Thisallows one to cut off circles ofthe butter to melt on top of afinished product, tradition-

Purées, also, don’t conformto the definition of the fiveleading sauces. They acquiretheir thickness from themaceration of a vegetable,fruit or an array of ingredi-ents, like pesto, for example.
The Internet and libraryare both great resources toget you started on creating arepertoire of sauces of yourvery own.
Dear Chef Dez:
“I like making spaghettitomato sauce, but it alwaysseems to be lacking something,and is always too bland. I’vetried just adding more salt, butthen it just tastes salty. Whatare some ideas that I can do?”
Robert D.Aldergrove
Dear Robert:Good sauces require depth
of flavour. There are manythings you can add to createthis, but for a tomato pastasauce I recommend start-ing with a sautéed seasonedmixture of extra virgin oliveoil, mire poix (celery, onionsand carrots), and lots of fresh
garlic. Add the tomatoes withred wine or stock and cookdown until the flavours haveintensified and the sauce hasthickened. Dried herbs canbe added at the beginning,while fresh herbs should onlybe added just prior to finish-ing.
Also, since tomatoes areacidic, a couple of teaspoonsof sugar will help balanceeverything out. Before serv-ing, make sure to taste andre-season (salt and pepper).

Trunkwon’t open? LatchmaybebrokenDear Tom and Ray:“My brother-in-law, who
lives the next state over, hasa 2007 Toyota Corolla. Histrunk no longer opens. He livesfrugally, so it would reallybe good if the two of us couldfind the root cause and fix it.We met halfway between ourhouses at an ice-cream shopparking lot, and pried the backseat forward. Then I crawledinto the trunk to assess whatI could. The key turns, and awire strut looks like it moves.There is a plastic lever with theimage of a car and trunk open-ing, which I thought wouldsave us. No luck. I pulled itdown, but nothing happenedor clicked. Something is justnot hooked up right, and we
don’t know what it is or why.As we were experiencing aheat wave at the time, I didnot spend too much more timepoking around in the trunk.What do you suggest we donext?”
— EricRAY: I’d wait for winter,
Eric. It’s a lot cooler in thetrunk that time of year.
TOM: Sounds like thelatch is broken. You have twomechanisms that are suppos-ed to make the latch disen-gage (the key, and the emer-gency release lever inside thetrunk). Neither one actuatedthe latch. So it’s probably thelatch itself.
RAY: So you should tryto unlatch the thing, manu-ally, from the inside. I don’thave a mental map of an ’07Corolla trunk latch, but what
you want to do is try to flipthe latch claw with a screw-driver so it releases its holdon the U-bolt that’s holdingthe trunk lid closed.
TOM: We often have thisproblem with hood releaselatches. They rust out, or thecable breaks or sticks. Weget underneath and releasethe latch with a screwdriverso we can repair the thing.Of course, hood latches areeasier to get at from the grilleor through the engine com-partment, but it’s the sameprinciple.
RAY: So you need to get inthere with a bright light, andsee if you can manoeuvre thelatch mechanism with theright size screwdriver and get
it to release.TOM: It’d be helpful if
you could see one that worksproperly first. So next timeyou see an ’07 Corolla, askthe driver if he can lock youin his trunk for a while. Bringan oxygen tank. And pack alunch, in case you’re in therefor a while.
RAY: If you’re unableto release the latch with ascrewdriver, then you have toeither try to unbolt the latch
from the inside and removeit, or do a Law and Order onit.
TOM: That’s a crowbar,Eric. But that’ll damage thetrunk lid, and the fascia.
RAY: But ultimately, you’llprobably have to remove thelatch and either fix or replaceit. It’s just easier to do whenthe trunk is open and youhave access to helpful acces-sories, like light and air.Good luck.

Sammy J’s Grill and Bar...New look, New attitudeSammy J’s has kicked up the attitude andpeople are starting to sit up and take notice.Unlike a rebelling teenager, however, SammyJ’s mood swing is all positive and they’reinviting everyone to join them in theirnewly renovated “house” on the LougheedHighway.
The old surroundings have been replacedby a more upscale, yet welcoming, new lookthat oozes comfort and class.
What remains, and always will, is Sammy J’spassion for crafting and serving customerssimple, yet honest food – laced with aspoonful of its newfound attitude.
“We’ve changed the look of the restaurantto give it more of a Yaletown feel and reallyupped the food quality,” said Sammy J’s co-owner Steve Gardner about the renovatedCoquitlam restaurant. “A new, unobstructedconcrete bar has really added to theatmosphere, creating a real living room-style
social gathering spot that continues to drawmore people in all the time.”
As well as kicking up the look of therestaurant, Sammy J’s kicked off a part of itsname.
“We dropped Peppers from the brandbecause people were associating us solelywith spicy food and we’re so muchmorethan that,” added Gardner.
The two brothers and owners, Mike andSteve, are always in the restaurants workingalong side their staff and speaking withguests in a constant search of ways to beeven better hosts. They know that therestaurant business changes regularly sothey understand the commitment requiredto keep up with the trends.
“My brother Mike and I grew up whereregular family gatherings were always builtaround unbelievably great food and now,
as restaurant owners, we want to bring thatsame feeling to all of our guests,” said Steve.With flavour packed dishes such as TequilaHabenero Meat Loaf, Braised Shortrib BeefDip and hand-made burgers, there is nodoubt they are achieving that goal.
Whether it’s to watch sporting events withyour friends, a working lunch or a familymeal, Sammy J’s is THE new place to hangout in Coquitlam.
“Our renovations in our Langley andCoquitlam locations and the re-brandingin general is allowing us to reach a muchbigger demographic than before and nowwith new locations in West Kelowna andSouth Surrey... it’s a very exciting time forSammy J’s.”
Another string to Sammy J’s bow is a private22-seater dining room in Coquitlam, whichis tailor-made for corporate parties andfamily functions, with the ability to hook up
presentations to the room’s two 60“ TVs.There is no charge for the room althoughguests are required to order food andbeverages

Cut home improvement project costsOver the last several
decades, more and morehomeowners have embracedthe notion that homes neednot all be alike, and that anindividual’s home can caterto his or her personal tastesand needs.
The trend of modellinga home after one’s owntastes has extended beyondchoosing furniture or otherreplaceable elements tostructural changes andfull-scale renovations, thusupping the financial ante forhomeowners who want toturn their homes into placesmore in tune with their ownpersonalities.
When it comes to improv-ing their homes, many home-owners associate cuttingcosts with cutting corners,which can put residents’safety at risk. But there areways for homeowners to savemoney on home improve-ment projects while stillensuring their homes are safeand sound.
Work withrecycled materials
Homeowners about toundertake small-scale do-it-yourself projects can often
save money by using recycledmaterials. Many homeownersdo not go the DIY routewhen making larger renova-tions, but those that do alsocan save money by usingrecycled materials. However,homeowners should knowthat many contractors do notwork with recycled materialsin an effort to avoid liabilityshould something go awryduring the project or after itis completed. But DIYers canbenefit from using recycledmaterials, which can be pur-chased at various locations.For example, Habitat for
Humanity, a nonprofit organ-ization devoted to buildinghomes for the less fortunate,operates its own ReStores,which are nonprofit homeimprovement stores that sellrecycled building materialsat a steep discount. ReStorelocations can be found by vis-iting www.habitat.org.
Get your handsdirty
Labour costs on homeimprovement projects areconsiderable, but home-owners can cut these costs
by doing some of the labourthemselves. Even those menand women with little or noDIY experience can still chipin and save some money.Homeowners about toembark on a rebuilding pro-ject can chip in and do someof the demolition on theirown. For example, whenreplacing sidewalks, home-owners can simply breakup and remove the existingsidewalk on their own ratherthan paying their contractorsto do such work for them. It’sbest for homeowners to leaveinterior labour to the profes-sionals, as they are moreknowledgeable about how tofind load-bearing walls andplumbing fixtures than theaverage weekend warriorhomeowner. Homeownerswho mistakenly take outfixtures inside their homesin an attempt to cut down onlabour costs might find suchmiscues are far more costlythan simply paying for thelabour from the get-go.
Remember howflatteringimitation can be
As the old adage goes,
“Imitation is the sincer-est form of flattery.”Homeowners working ontight budgets can opt for imi-tation materials that appearand feel just like more costlyauthentic materials. Whenopting for imitation materi-als, homeowners shouldknow that they or their rep-resentatives cannot falselyrepresent the materials asauthentic when selling thehome, no matter how muchmaterials look and feel likethe real thing.
Schedule projectsduring theoffseason
Like many professionals,contractors have busy sea-sons and seasons that tendto be slow. These seasonscan change depending ongeography, but homeownerscan save money by postpon-ing projects until the slowseason, when contractors aremore likely to offer discountsin an attempt to stay busyand continue to generateincome. Savings will varydepending on a variety offactors, but it’s not unlikelythat patient homeowners
willing to wait until theoffseason to renovate theirhomes can save as much asfive per cent on the overallcost of the project.
Try not tocustomize
Though the driving forcebehind many home improve-ment projects is to createa dream home that catersto homeowners’ individualneeds, going overboard withcustomizing is expensive.Larger-than-normal dimen-sions may seem like a greatidea, but unless they’reabsolutely necessary, they’rebest avoided by budget-con-scious homeowners. Buildingsupplies are sold at certaindimensions because thosedimensions are the mostcommon. Altering thesedimensions unnecessarilyis only driving up the costof the project, so it’s best tostick with stock sizes whenmoney is tight.
Home improvement pro-jects are often expensiveundertakings. But suchendeavors need not break thebank.

The sum totals of placings may not havebeen what they were shooting for, but the Dr.Charles Best Blue Devils, Centennial Centaursand Heritage Woods Kodiaks could each hangtheir hat on stellar performances at last week’sB.C. High School AAA soccer championships.
The three Tri-Cities teams came in with sim-ilar hopes but different expectations — withNorth league champion Best listed as a legit-imate challenger for the big prize.
While the Blue Devils finished the 16-teamtourney in 10th place, they demonstratedthroughout the season that they were amongthe best in B.C., as evident by a 18-1-2 record.
They were edged in the tourney opener 1-0by Panorama Ridge, with the game’s only goalcoming with two minutes left in regulationand against the flow of play.
From there, the Blue Devils picked up thepieces, hammering Van Tech 5-0, then out-playing defending champion Argyle in a 1-1draw to finish second in its pool.
In the playdowns, Best topped Belmont 3-2in a shootout before forfeiting the final game,1-0 to Kitsilano, due to a lack of players.
“We were actually very good, but we didn’thave any luck. Our team played awesomeand dominated play in every game. [We had]numerous scoring opportunities, but for somereason the ball just couldn’t find the backof the net when we needed most,” said Besthead coach Alfonso Napoletano. “That’s soc-cer sometimes.”
Best battled through a scoring drought toearn its top-10 result, led by captain and Grade11 midfielder Andrea Perrotta. A third-yearvet with the club, the versatile high perform-ance player led the team in assists this year,after leading the way in goals last season.
A tireless leader, Perrotta was the tone-setter for a Best group that rolled a 15-0 recordinto the Fraser Valley final.
“Many of our goals were set up by her,”remarked Napoletano. “Andrea has been play-ing for the senior team since Grade 9, has anamazing first touch, a strong shot and accuratepassing abilities. [Her] vision and creativity onthe soccer pitch is outstanding. She makeseveryone around her better.”
During the season they outscored theirrivals 56-4 as netminder Sierra Lomdardesecollected 15 shutouts. Kathryn Harvey was anoffensive dynamo, netting 26 goals.
The Centaurs, meanwhile, suffered a simi-lar fate to emerge in eighth place.
They launched the tourney with a 2-1 come-from-behind win over Burnaby North. SierraLeung tied the game off a breakaway, thenwith five minutes left, stole the ball and passedit to Brooklynn Doucette for the winner.
After a rough 5-1 loss to Oak Bay, the Centsfell 1-0 to Heritage Woods on a late tally. Inthe playoff round, they gave a feisty perform-ance against Kelowna before bowing out 4-3in extra time. Catrina Olstrom and GiulianaSemple, with two, supplied the goals.
Their final test was a 2-1 loss to Argyle.EarninggamestarawardswereCentsRachel
Bralic, Paige Benning, Brooklynn Doucette,
Nicole Foreman and Sierra Leung.For the underdog Kodiaks, the run featured
round-robin losses of 3-2, 2-0 and 1-0 toBurnaby North, Oak Bay and Kitsilano. Thepayback was pulling out a dramatic 1-0 victoryover Centennial, followed by a 2-1 overtimedecision over Belmont to claim 11th spot.
Scoring for the Kodiaks were siblings Jordanand Kaitlyn Teves and Erica Reis, while MatteaMcrae and Danica Wilson were defensivestandouts.
Earning Commissioner’s 11 awards wereCentennial’s Veronica Aguiar, Best’s StefaniaMeme, and Heritage’s Mcrae.
