The sale of puppies andkittens in Burnaby petstores could be a thing ofthe past if a Maple Ridgewoman gets her wish.

At Monday’s city coun-cil meeting, Jordyn Croftpresented the results of a

year-long project aimed atstopping Pet Habitat fromselling kittens and puppies.Over the past few months,Croft has been collectingsignatures for a petition thatcalls on the City of Burnabyto ban the sale of puppiesand kittens in pet stores.She now has 460 signa-tures, in addition to the 270

she collected last fall, whenshe first approached the cityabout the Metrotown petshop.

“(The puppies) have nofresh air, they don’t havespace for exercise, they’relacking (human) contactand most of that is just peo-ple tapping on the glassthey’re in,” Croft told coun-

cillors and staff.Coun. Sav Dhaliwal was

the first to agree with Croftthat the city needs to step inon this issue. In an interviewTuesday morning, he toldthe NOW, he’d tried to havethe sale of puppies and kit-tens banned during the lastreview of the animal controlbylaw about three years ago,

but at the time, there wasn’tan appetite for it.

Attitudes appear to havechanged since then.

On Monday, severalcouncillors and the may-or echoed Dhaliwal andCroft’s call to put a stop tothis practice pending a re-view of the bylaw.

“I think there’s good rea-

son for us to ask for or seeka review sometime soon,”Dhaliwal said. “It seemedlike a number of council-lors who did speak on itwere also thinking that per-haps a ban is in order be-cause it doesn’t seem to beimproved.”

A Burnaby charity thatruns programs for kids tra-ditionally excluded fromorganized sports needs$3,500 to make it to theend of the school year.

Burnaby MoreSports– launched by BurnabyNeighbourhood House,parks and rec and theschool district about 10years ago – offers hockey,basketball and soccer pro-grams to kids in grades 2to 5 at four local elemen-tary schools.

It’s aimed at boostingsports participation amonggirls, new immigrants andkids from low income fam-ilies who might not be ableto afford the fees chargedby athletic clubs.

“It’s a valuable commu-nity program that meetsthe needs of children who

are often left out of tra-ditional organized sports,and it would be a shameto see it fail,” Neighbour-hood House program di-rector Kimberly Barwichsaid.

The organization wasgranted charitable status

just this month, which willopen up funding oppor-tunities in the future, Bar-wich said, but some of thegroup’s regular fundersdidn’t donate to the pro-gram this year.

“The funding climateis difficult,” she said. “I

would say that in the last10 years it’s become muchmore difficult to fund allnon-profits.”

To try to keep the pro-gram running till the endof the school year, More-Sports has launched aGoFundMe crowd-fund-

ing campaign to fill thegap.

The money raised willhelp pay for the rest of thecurrent soccer season, in-cluding a year-end soc-cer festival, healthy snacks,team T-shirts, and the sal-aries of a program coor-

dinator and a part-timestaffer at each school site.

‘Insensitive’ tweets come back to haunt Liberal

After a series of “insen-sitive” tweets from 2012resurfaced earlier thismonth, the B.C. Liber-al candidate for Burnaby-Lougheed has announcedhe won’t be running in the2017 provincial election.

In a statement posted onTwitter last Friday, Ran-dy Rinaldo said his pasttweets – which includenegative generalizationsabout the Roma popula-tion, suggesting that childpoverty is a result of poorparenting and a commentabout running over a sexoffender – have made himreflect on whether the cur-rent timing is truly the bestfit for him at this point inhis life.

“My wife and I are ex-pecting our second childsoon, and my responsibil-ity as a father needs to bemy priority and focus, one

that I take very seriously,”he wrote. “While insensi-tiveTwitter posts from sev-eral years ago no longer re-flect who I am today, thefact remains that this issuehas become a distractionto my candidacy and fam-ily responsibilities.”

The negative tweets re-surfaced on May 11 afterVancouver School Boardtrustee Patti Bacchusshared a screen grab of anexchange between her andRinaldo in 2012. Respond-ing to something Bacchushad posted, Rinaldo wrote,“Child poverty is a cultur-al problem not a systemproblem, many people outthere shouldn’t be havingkids #irresponsible.”

In another tweet direct-ed at former B.C. pre-mier and former MP Uj-jal Dosanjh, Rinaldo wrote“the Roma people are de-stroying my Italy you needto do your home work mrdosanjh, Gypseys=rape

pillage steal.”The real-estate agent by

trade apologized “unre-servedly” for his past socialmedia activity. In a recentinterview with the NOW,Rinaldo said a lot has hap-pened in the four yearssince he made those state-ments – he got married,became a dad and servedas a riding president forthe B.C. Liberals.

In last week’s statement,Rinaldo goes on to say hehopes his decision to optout of the election doesn’tdeter other young peoplefrom seeking office.

“It is important that wedo not immediately dis-qualify individuals fromseeking to represent theircommunities because theytook positions on complexissues in their past.

“We should allow peopleto express their opinionsand accept that those opi-ons can change.”

A surge in drug overdosedeaths that led the provinceto declare a public healthemergency in April has mo-tivated organizations work-ing in Burnaby to try to getthe life-saving antidote nal-oxone into the hands ofmore young people.

Drug overdose deaths inBurnaby have nearly dou-bled over the last nine years,jumping from nine in 2007to 16 last year, accordingto new data released by theB.C. Coroners Service lastmonth.

The increase mirrors asimilar surge provincewide– with fentanyl, a synthet-ic painkiller 100 times morepotent than morphine, ac-counting for or contributingto a growing percentage of

the deaths.In 2012, fentanyl was de-

tected – alone or in combi-nation with other drugs –in five per cent of overdosedeaths in the province. In2015, that figure shot up to32 per cent.

And people under the ageof 30, have accounted foran increasing percentageof drug deaths: 29 per centfor the first quarter of 2016,compared to 19 per cent in2007.

Even before the provincedeclared the health emer-gency, Brian Gross, proj-ect director forValleyYouthPartnership for Engagementand Respect (VYPER) saidyouth in his program hadtalked about coming upwith ways to keep kids safer.

“A lot of these youth aredealing with friends who areusing fentanyl on a daily ba-

sis and feel like, ‘What can Ido?’” Gross said.

Many didn’t know whatnaloxone was, he said, andonly after they first learnedabout it, did they start shar-ing personal stories abouttimes they really could haveused it.

“Stories started comingout about having been atparties where there was anoverdose and sometimes sit-ting next to someone whowas overdosing, and thatwas a really horrific experi-ence for them that probablywas unspeakable until thatmoment because it’s so stig-matizing too,” Gross said.

VYPER, a Health Can-ada-funded program thatworks with youth through-out the Fraser Health re-gion, decided to approach

Fraser Health and the B.C.Centre for Disease Controlto partner on a youth-cen-tred naloxone training ses-sion.

Odyssey I SubstanceAbuse Services forYouthand Families, a programthat runs out of the Boysand Girls Club in Burnaby,stepped up to provide thevenue.

“In recent years, opioiduse has become much more

mainstream and commonamongst Burnaby youthaged 13 to 24,” program co-ordinator Bridgette Ebingtold the NOW in an email.“Youth are dying from ac-cidental overdoses and thattrend is continuing. Hostingthe naloxone training wasan opportunity to supportour youth and their fami-lies to know about and ac-cess a tool that could helpsave a life.”

Youth working with

VYPER designed postersfor the event challengingtheir peers to become “nal-oxone ninjas.”

The session attracted atotal of about 60 partici-pants – about 20 under theage of 25 – and organizershanded out 30 take-homenaloxone kits.

To those who might ar-gue providing naloxone toyoung people could encour-age drug abuse, Gross saidthe issue is complex.

“It would be wonder-ful if people just didn’t dothis and this didn’t happen,but it’s happening,” he said.“The fact is that we have apublic health crisis on ourhands, and there have beena lot of lives saved as a resultof naloxone in the FraserHealth region.”

Gross went on to sayevents like the naloxone ses-sion also do more than dis-tribute the drug; the non-judgmental setting also

gives drug-involved youth achance to make connectionswith stable, reliable adults.

More than 1,200 BritishColumbians have signed anonline petition that calls ontheTrudeau government toreject theTrans Mountainexpansion project.

Kennedy Stewart, MPfor Burnaby South, pre-sented e-petition No. 128 inthe House of Commons onMonday.

“The petitioners say this

project brings too muchrisk to land and surface wa-ters and aquifers along theroute, and they’re saying theexport of diluted bitumenby Kinder Morgan threat-ens the future of the plan-et through climate change,”he said. “Thank you verymuch, Mr. Speaker, and Ihope the government takesthis seriously.”

On May 19, the NationalEnergy Board recommend-ed the federal government

approve Kinder Morgan’sproposal to twin theTransMountain pipeline as long

as 157 conditionsare met. It was a“difficult” decision,one that came af-ter more than twoyears of hearings.

“The board is ofthe view that over-all, with the imple-mentation ofTransMountain’s envi-ronmental protec-tion proceduresand mitigation, and theboard’s recommended con-

ditions, the proj-ect would not like-ly cause significantenvironmental ef-fects,” said Rob-ert Steedman, theNEB’s chief envi-ronment officer ina pre-written state-ment read to me-dia via teleconfer-ence from Calgary.

Whether or notthe project goes ahead isup to the Liberal cabinet,

which is expected to make afinal decision in December.

As for the e-petition –which had 1,942 signaturesin total – the federal gov-ernment must now providea written response on theHouse of Commons’ web-site within 45 days.

Sitting on the patio of aBurnaby townhouse unitwith her best friend Spir-it by her side, it doesn’t takemuch for Carole Cardinal toget emotional about her pre-dicament.

Cardinal and her 10-year-old lab are inseparable.

The pair met when Car-dinal was taking care of afriend, Spirit’s owner, whowas dying of cancer. Afterhe passed away, Cardinaltook responsibility for themellow pooch.

“My dog is one of thenicest dogs,” she told theNOW.

Unfortunately, it lookslike someone in Cardi-nal’s apartment complex onSouthoaks Crescent doesn’tfeel the same way. And nowthe senior, who is on a pen-sion, is having to choose be-tween her companion orfinding a new place to live.

Cardinal’s situation goesback almost two years, whenshe befriended David Balm-er.The two got to knoweach other while walkingtheir dogs in the neighbour-hood. She moved into histownhouse in the apartmentcomplex in the fall of 2014.

The problem: the strataonly allows one small dog,and Balmer already hashis own dog, a ChihuahuanamedTin.

Balmer said everything

was fine, until he got an in-fraction notice from thestrata in mid-February, no-tifying him that one of thedogs would have to go orhe, as the townhouse own-er, would face fines of $200a week.

He believes someone inthe building complained buthas never been given thereason why the strata beganenforcing the bylaw.

What followed was a backand forth for the last fewmonths between the strata

council’s lawyers and Balm-er, who is asking they allowhim to keep two dogs in hisunit. He’s proposed the stra-ta change the bylaw. Balm-er has even suggested thatCardinal and Spirit providea block watch service for thebuilding free of charge in re-turn.

So far, he’s had no luckchanging anyone’s mind.While Cardinal can stay,Spirit has to go. But givingup her best friend is not anoption.

“It’s very stressful. I can’tgive my dog away,” she said.“It’s like killing your kid.”

But, living on a pension

with limited funds has Car-dinal in a bind. She wants tostay in the area but findingan affordable place to livehas been difficult. Cardinalis willing to live in her car ifit means staying with Spirit.

Balmer acknowledgedkeeping Spirit is against thestrata bylaws, but he’s hop-ing the strata council willhave some compassion andlet the dog stay.

“I’m attached to Spirit,”he said, adding everyone inthe building likes the dog.“We’re in the wrong here,(but) they’ve been letting itgo for almost two years.”

A letter from the strata’slawyer on May 10 indicatesthe council’s decision is finalbut also noted it has givenBalmer “ample opportunityto comply with removal ofthe second dog.”

The deadline for the dogto be removed was extendedto May 22, which has nowcome and gone.TheNOWreached out to Associa Brit-ish Columbia, the build-ing’s property managementcompany. A representativesaid they would contact thepresident of the strata to seeif they would provide com-ment, but theNOW had notheard back.

Failing a reversal fromthe strata, Balmer hopes hisfriend will find a place near-by so the pair and their twodogs can stay friends.

“She’s a nice lady with agood heart,” he said.

A dog trainer whose nineanimals died after a firebroke out in her Burnabyhome last week has sufferedanother loss.

Sometime overnight onMay 26, someone brokeinto Dove Cresswell’s base-ment suite at on FulwellStreet.The house had beenboarded up by fire crewsfollowing a blaze a day ear-lier, and that’s how the thiefor thieves got in, accord-ing to Burnaby RCMP StaffSgt. Major John Buis.

“They stole a bunch ofpersonal gear and electron-ics from the home, (includ-ing) a video camera withsome storage devices,” hesaid. “(The home) certain-ly didn’t look abandoned.However, it was a very topi-cal discussion throughoutthat area.”

The fire erupted just be-fore 8 p.m. Cresswell, whoruns a dog-training compa-ny, had stepped out for lessthan two hours to teach adog agility class, accordingto a GoFundMe page.

When she returned home,she noticed smoke andcalled 911.There were ninedogs and three cats inside,some crated for safety. Sev-en dogs and two cats dieddue to smoke inhalation(three were her own, whilethe other four were ones shewas watching for friends).

“Jared and I ran in andout bringing them out un-til the firemen stopped us,”Cresswell wrote on the Go-FundMe page. “I held andcuddled every one and toldthem I loved them.

“My heart and world arecompletely shattered by this.Shattered.”

Cresswell trained caninesfor flicks such asMarley and

Me 2:The PuppyYears,OnceUponATime andMarmad-uke. She and her dogs havegarnered numerous podiumplacements over the yearsat the Agility Association ofCanada Nationals. In to-tal, she has fostered over75 dogs in her home in thelast nine years, according toher company website, Dog-Works.

As for the items taken,Buis is encouraging anyonewho saw anything to call thelocal detachment or CrimeStoppers.There are no sus-pects at the moment, andthe investigation is ongoing,he said.

“It’s a terrible crime.Not only the fire and los-ing those animals but thenalso being subjected to this,somebody going in andstealing your personal prop-erty and the images of herpets, it must be devastatingfor her.”

Furry friends:CaroleCardinal,withher labSpirit, andDavidBalmer,withhis chihuahuaTin, havebeenliving together fornearly twoyears –but strata rulesmean they’re going tohave toget ridof Spirit. PHOTOCORNELIANAYLOR

FRIDAY, JUNE 35PM – 8PM


Change iscoming–andit’sgoodYour child’s school is not

the same as the one youattended and, starting inSeptember, more changesare coming.

For the last 12 months,School District 41 and oth-ers across B.C. have beenrolling out the new kinder-garten to Grade 9 curricu-lum, which is aimed at be-ing more flexible, meetingthe needs of diverse learn-ers and more attentive tostudent interests comparedto the past.

Now, a new curricu-lum for Grade 10 to 12students is about to belaunched, and with it, few-er provincial exams, moreemphasis on career studiesand a possible revampingof the report card system.

For parents who may bea little shell-shocked by allthe changes and worry thatthis is just a new fad foreducation, it’s time to re-lax.

Many of the new person-alized teaching strategies –

emphasizing project-basedlearning where studentslook into topics they areinterested in and use dif-ferent ways to show theirknowledge – have been inclassrooms for some time.

Math and literacy arestill important, and therewill be provincial ex-ams for these, but compe-tent teachers who knowtheir students will still testknowledge in science, so-cial studies and Grade 10language arts. Nothing will

change there, except thatyounger students won’t bewriting standardized tests,while post-secondary insti-tutions appear to be adapt-ing to the new paradigm.

Other changes are alsowelcome.

A focus on careers inhigh school? Bring it on,as this means students willsimply spend more time re-searching and consideringoptions for their future.

Report cards?This willbe controversial, and for-

tunately parents are beingconsulted. Changing theway students are graded isa little scary, but the wayit’s done now may be justtoo simplistic to get a goodread on how students aredoing.

As for whether B.C.’seducation system is be-ing dumbed down, this isan argument that is sureto catch fire. B.C. studentsare already doing well byinternational measures, in-cluding the Program for

International Student As-sessment, which lists themamong the best in theworld.

Imagine how they will dowhen the curriculum en-courages them to dig deep-er in their studies. Insteadof memorizing texts anddates, they can build youa cell structure or make amovie about it and tell youhow it works.

Now, that’s learning.– Guest editorial from the

JohnHorgan’sHailMarypass

So just how important isit to folks for the B.C. gov-ernment to balance its an-nual budget? It’s a questionthat is worth asking nowthat NDP leader John Hor-gan has suggested that a bal-anced budget may not bepart of his party’s electionplatform next spring.

In an interview with TheVancouver Sun, Horgansaid he thinks “politics ischanging and the focus onthe annual budget is chang-ing.” He said a balancedbudget is a priority onlyfor a select few: “The vot-ers are not as in-sync as thegnomes in Zurich and thebond raters about the im-portant of making sure ev-erything comes out alignedin the end.”

Bold, provocative words.Also, a potentially very riskyposition to hold. But wherethere is risk, there is alsosometimes a reward.TheNDP has gotten absolute-ly nowhere in elections thathave seen the party simplyadopt a “B.C. Liberal-lite”budget as the underpinningof its election platform. Do-ing so allows only minor tin-kering – a bit of spendinghere, a small tax shift there– from the existing B.C.Liberal platform, with littleroom for major changes thatwould provide a contrast be-tween the two parties.

For example, the NDPwants to get rid of Medi-cal Service Plan premiums,which sounds nice until onerealizes doing so would blowa $2.5-billion hole in the an-nual budget. However, ifbalancing the budget is no

longer a goal, such a movecan be done.

The NDP is alsoclamouring for huge in-creases in spending on pub-lic education. Again, if bal-ancing the books isn’t apriority, why not start downthat path?The New Demo-crats have been bashing theB.C. Liberals about the earsin other areas as well: higherrates for those on disabilityassistance, lower tuition feesfor post-secondary students,more money for health care,and much more.

The list of demands is alengthy one and can only beachieved with a budget thateither is not balanced or thatgreatly increases taxes on in-dividuals and corporations.Meeting these demands alsomeans the budget would notbe balanced over a term ingovernment.

Nevertheless, this wouldprovide a remarkable con-trast to what the B.C. Liber-als are offering.

The NDP needs to notonly hold its own seats inthe next election, but it alsoneeds to poach a dozen orso from the B.C. Liberals, ascenario that seems unlikelyunless something dramaticoccurs. And tossing a com-mitment to a balanced bud-get for the foreseeable futurewould certainly be dramatic.

To some, it may look likeHorgan is about to throwa Hail Mary pass. But re-member: every now andthen those kinds of passesare caught for touchdowns.Keith Baldrey is chief politi-

cal reporter for Global B.C.

Mayor needs to startworking for citizensDear EditorRe: Mayor failing to show leader-ship on housing, Inbox,BurnabyNOW, May25.

Earl’s letter highlighting the lamentablelack of leadership coming out of city hall is notnearly new news. In fact this lingering leader-ship void has been getting bigger since the lastelection and is showing no signs of abatement.The succinct presentation by the Burnaby Art

Council re-garding theirproposalfor a newart gallerywas nearlydrowned outby the collec-tive snoring

of the mayor and council. Again no action bythe mayor except to bring up a 30-year-old ref-erendum issue and then fob the matter off tostaff with no apparent positive endorsement.Staff got the message.

Further, Terry Mcdonald presented a cogentcompilation of broken promises outlining thelack of action from the mayor on the mitiga-tion of traffic issues impacting the Brentwoodneighbourhood from the ongoing and everincreasing densification of Brentwood TownCentre. The mayor’s response: “What do youwant me to do?”

Make it right is what we want you do, butinstead it once again got fobbed off and buriedin favour of something more exciting likedemovictims.

Enough is enough. It is time for the mayorto put his retirement plans on hold, roll up hissleeves, rouse the councillors from their torporand get back to working for the citizens ofBurnaby.DarcyOlson,Burnaby

Private schools arediscriminating, tooDear EditorRe: Parent calls out discrimina-tory practice,BurnabyNOW, May 27.

Do I laugh or cry? This parent of a privateschool student is crying foul because the Cityof Burnaby hires public school students beforethe private school students. This is a case ofthe pot calling the kettle black. He complainsof this so-called discrimination, but he doesnot see his private school discriminating, too.A private school administrator can decidewho or who doesn’t attend his school. Theydo not typically accept special-needs or weakstudents; in fact, many private schools haveentrance exams and only take the strongeststudents.

Why shouldn’t the City of Burnaby havethe same right to choose who they hire. Heclaims to pay his taxes and feels private schoolstudents are being treated as second-class citi-zens (quoted in your paper May 27). Well, I paytaxes towards his private school (funding 50per cent) yet I don’t have equal access to thatprivate education if my child is academicallyweak or physically or mentally disabled.

I would encourage the City of Burnaby tocontinue hiring public school students first forvolunteer work.Aldina Isbister, Burnaby

Parent cries foulover discriminatorypractice for students

Sheila LiddleBby parks and rec DOHAVE partnerships/ relationshipswith Burnaby schoolS we have hadcity staff come in talk to PACS aboutprograms offered at the schools, whatare children are interested in, we havehad consultations with bby park staffabout playgrounds, some schools evenhave students play on park propertyduring recess and lunch so yes theirare relationships BBY PARKS WOULDNEVER GO TO YOUR CHILDS VANCOU-VER SCHOOL. Their are relationshipsbuilt through schools and with manydifferent community groups, their areoutdoor swimming programs offered...and more as there should be. I paytaxes and no where on any tax formI have received says I pay taxes forvolunteers??? Logically thinking wherewould the volunteer youth comefrom?? Yes our high schools. Pleasestop whining and playing the discrimi-nation card!! Your Burnaby child canapply like any other student. But yes IDO BELIEVE volunteers should comefrom Burnaby schools ( the studentsthat have supported parks and Recprograms through out the years... Thento the greater community.I wonder if I called your child’s schoolwhat partnerships they may have withthe community? And if I should statethat these partnerships discriminateagainst children and families that cannot afford private school.

AnnaMariaDPThe child may livein Burnaby and attend a Vancouverschool. Private or public. The child mayalso take City of Burnaby courses oractivities on the weekends or eveningsat community centres. Not necessarilyan after school program at a school.The child is still a Burnaby residentregardless of where she attends school.What are we teaching kids if we treatthem like this?

Mike I don’t understand why they areupset. It is just volunteering which theydon’t get paid for. They aren’t losinganything. In fact they are gaining theirtime back by being denied.

MarcusCanada I assume you donthave kids because if you did, youwould know that kids nearing gradu-ation have a prequisite number ofvolunteer hours in order to be allowedto graduate from high school.

Zeebo There’s lots of positions at othersummer camps in Burnaby who don’tdiscriminate and can’t find volunteers.Such as Victory Sports Camps wherestudents get those same volunteerhours to count as credit toward theirwork experience for their high schooldiploma. Check it out, there’s 7 campsthis summer in Burnaby needing vol-unteers. It’s a great program and beenaround for several years.

During the review in2013, Dhaliwal said the pre-vailing thought at the timewas to give pet store ownersa chance to address com-plaints of neglect and poorcare.

It was left up to the B.C.SPCA, then, to check in onthe pet stores on a regu-lar basis to ensure the city’spet store regulations, whichwere added as amendmentsto the current bylaw threeyears ago, were being fol-lowed.

If another review were tobe conducted, however, itopens the entire bylaw upfor review, including the “vi-cious dog” classification.

Instead, proposing anamendment might bethe best course of action,Dhaliwal said, but even anamendment would taketime.

There would have to be apublic hearing on the mat-ter and possibly severaldrafts before something isenacted.

In January, an SPCA in-spection of Pet Habitat re-sulted in one violation ticket

for failing to provide veteri-nary care to one of the an-imals.The $500 fine waspromptly paid by the owner,according to a staff report.

However, in her presen-tation, Croft said she ob-served other alleged infrac-tions at the store as recentlyas last month.

And it is possible breach-es are going unreported be-cause inspections are oftenconducted on a complaintbasis or whenever the SPCAhas time to drop by thestore, Dhaliwal said.

It’s not as regular a sys-tem as he would like to see,Dhaliwal added.

He said it’s worrisome tothink that, while the city isreviewing the bylaw, animalscould be suffering.

He said he plans to speakwith staff about making theSPCA inspections moreregular until the review pro-cess is complete.

“It’s just not practi-cal to provide the care andthe space and the prop-er amount of exercise that’sneeded for the pets or an-imals. It’s just not practi-cal in a store, in a big mall,”

Dhaliwal said.Ernest Ang, owner of

Pet Habitat, said withoutpet stores, people would beforced to buy puppies fromshady places often foundonline.

Until breeders in BritishColumbia are held to thesame standards as breed-ers in the United States,Ang said he will continue tobring in puppies from southof the border.

B.C. is in the process ofbringing in legislation to li-cense cat and dog breeders.The new law is anticipatedto take effect in 2017.

Ang said the puppies hesells have the necessary pa-pers from their Americanbreeders.They are all vac-cinated prior to being soldand are implanted with mi-crochips.

If a review of the animalcontrol bylaw was conduct-ed and resulted in a ban onthe sale of puppies and kit-tens, Ang said it’s his cus-tomers who would suffer.

Last Saturday’s raindidn’t dampen the spiritsof a group of Burnaby chil-dren who wanted to raisesome money for Fort Mc-Murray residents affectedby the wildfire.

The kids of Elm GroveDrive in GreentreeVillage(behind BCIT) got togetherand raised $120 for the RedCross as part of the annualneighbourhood garage sale.

Rather than sell lemonade,the youngsters offered a“snack shack,” with hot cof-fee and chocolate, cupcakes,muffins and candy.

“The children were plan-ning to raise funds forthis cause for the last twoweeks, and were great-ly encouraged when theyheard Mr.Trudeau had saidthat the donations wouldbe matched!”PaolaAn-drade-Fairey, a motherof two, wrote to the NOW.“The kids want the peopleof Fort McMurray to knowthat they support them too.”

SUPPORTINGALZHEIMER’S

More Burnaby residentsexperiencing the early stagesof memory loss due to de-mentia will be able to enjoya fitness and activity pro-gram, thanks to a $20,000grant from theWestmin-ster Savings Credit Union.The money supports the Al-zheimer Society of B.C.’sMind in Motion initia-tive, which offers demen-tia patients leisure activitiesthat would not otherwisebe available, according to apress release.

The program is specifical-

ly designed to suite the indi-vidual needs of participantsand offers a safe and relaxedenvironment. Alzheimer’sdisease is the most commonform of dementia account-ing for almost two-thirds ofdementias in Canada today.

DINING FORDREAMS

Burnaby’s very own Aid-en Griffin was recog-nized as a “hero of ability”at the B.C. Centre for Abil-ity’s 17th annual Diningfor Dreams Gala held lastweek.

For more than 47 years,

BCCFA has providedcommunity-based servic-es that enhance the quali-ty of life for children, youthand adults with disabilities.Each year, a handful of in-dividuals are given the hon-orary title for realizing theirdreams, despite the chal-lenges they face.

Griffin suffers from anatypical brain developmentwhich affects his ability tocontrol his emotions andbehaviours. Even thoughhe had a rough start to theschool year, with numeroussuspensions and having to

switch schools three timesin three years, the Grade3’er is no longer being con-trolled by his emotions.

The elementary studentgot the support he need-ed through a boys group,which ultimately led himto being a junior leader at acamp program and reignit-ed his love of learning.

Local residents are invit-ed to attend a free forum atthe Nikkei National Muse-um and Cultural Centre onJune 8 that covers all thingsfood.

Burnaby Food Matters:Food forToday & Foodfor the Future is a Burna-by Food First initiative thatdives into the topic of foodsecurity, with presentationsabout the state of food –from seed to table to com-post.

“Hopefully, people comeaway with some renewedhope and some thoughtsabout what should be hap-pening in Burnaby as far

as our local food security isconcerned,” says event orga-nizer Grant Rice.

One of the issues the cityis facing, according to Rice,is a lack of community gar-dens in dense neighbour-hoods.

“Burnaby is becomingmore and more of a densecommunity and it’s increas-ingly hard to find lands forthe people who live in thesemulti-residential highrises,”he said.

One of the programs of-fered by Burnaby FoodFirst to combat this prob-lem is a sharing backyardprogram, matching peoplewho have land with peo-ple who want land so theycan do some gardening andshare the crops.

Another part of food se-

curity, Rice added, is thehunger aspect, when peoplecan’t afford to eat healthy,so they choose the cheaperoption that usually carries alot of sugar and salt.

Being able to have a gro-cer around the corner andaccess food is also some-thing many people don’thave, he noted.

Food banks, meanwhile,have become a “permanentinstitution” versus an emer-gency stop, said Rice, andsome food banks offer littleto no fresh produce.

There are two parts to theday-long forum at the Nik-kei – an afternoon sessionand an evening session (orboth). Each of the speakerswill have seven minutes totalk about a specific area ofthe food system. Followingthat will be facilitated dis-cussions about how these is-sues affect participants andhow they envision a morefood secure Burnaby.

Vancouver’s Jennifer Rus-temeyer, producer of the2010 documentary TheClean Bin Project, and mostrecently, Just Eat It:A FoodWaste Story, will be sharingher insights at the forum.Her latest film talks abouthow society throws 40 percent of food in the garbage.

“You’d be surprised bythe quality of food that’sthrown out,” she told theNOW. “A lot of the food wefound, there’s really nothingwrong with it at all. Often itjust had a date label on it. Itwas perfectly fresh, perfectlycrisp, perfectly tasty and nu-tritious.”

Eating leftovers, mealplanning and shoppingwith a grocery list are smallthings people can incorpo-rate into their daily routine,Rustemeyer explained, add-ing those tweaks could add

up to $1,500 a year in sav-ings.

“With fruits and vegeta-bles, people really over es-timate the amount theycan eat in a week, and theyend up going for dinner onMonday and then some-thing’s rotting in the back ofyour fridge.We have thesehuge fridges and freezers.We have this impulse to fillit up, even if you’re one per-son,” she said.

Registration for the foodforum starts at 1:15 p.m.,with the event kicking off at2 p.m. For more info, [email protected] sign up for theevent, see burnabyfoodmatters.eventbrite.com.

Tradition continues at 17th annualMichael J. Fox TournamentGolfers flocked to a Burnaby golf course

Thursday for a star-powered annual tourna-ment to raise money for upgrades to theMichael J. Fox Theatre.Michael J. Fox was joined by his family

and 144 golfers to play 18 holes at RiverwayGolf Course. The chance to socialize andcompete alongside Fox draws quite a crowdevery year, according to Gary Morrey, chairof the Michael J. Fox Theatre Society. Hesaid this year’s tournament had been soldout for months.“It’s 100 per cent the star power of

Michael. He’s a Burnaby kid. He’s done sowell, he’s very humorous and he comes

across very sincere,” said Morrey, whohelped create the tournament 17years ago.The game was followed by agala dinner and both live andsilent auctions at the HiltonVancouver Metrotown. Theentire day brought in be-tween $60,000 to $65,000for the Michael J. FoxTheatre Society, includ-ing $10,000 in schol-arships for Burnabyhigh school studentsinterested in pursuingan arts education. Thedinner was highlight-ed by Fox’s inductioninto the B.C. Entertain-ment Hall of Fame.“We’ve been wanting

to induct Michael forquite some time, andnow is just the righttime,” said Rob Haynes,B.C. Entertainment Hallof Fame president. “He’ssuch a generous man.”Fox’s busy scheduleprevented him from be-ing in town for previous

induction years, said Haynes.However, Fox’s hall of fame honour was

downplayed when tickets for the dinnerwent on sale, Morrey said.“We kept it quiet,” he said. “We didn’t

want to publicize it because we have tomake sure Michael’s not bothered toomuch … He’s there to enjoy himself.”The gala featured a musical interlude

courtesy of the hometown hero himself,who played a couple songs on his guitarwith former high school bandmate AndyHill, before auctioning it off for the crowd.Garry and Victoria Peters bid $4,000 for theautographed instrument.“It was really great, (they) bought the gui-

tar then re-donated it back to the theatreso it can be used there,” said Morrey.The theatre society is planning on using

all funds raised to renovate the theatre’sentrance hall and replace seating. Thebuilding, which opened in 1993, has neverhad a major renovation. Morrey estimatesfull renovations could cost as much as$300,000 and will begin this summer.The night’s biggest donations came

courtesy of sponsors Scotia-bank and the Hilton VancouverMetrotown, donating $15,000and $10,000, respectively.The financial institution andhotel donated the sameamounts last year, andmany of the event’smajor sponsors anddonors lend theirsupport year afteryear.“People always

come up and say,‘Hey, we want tocome again nextyear,” Morrey said.“There’s some peo-ple who’ve beenthere all 17 years.”

Peoplenow

May I ask what hap-pened to your parentsand why you were raisedby your grandmother?

They divorced. It was an

arranged marriage. It wasquite common back then.Unfortunately, it didn’twork out. It was as much adisappointment to my pa-ternal grandmother as itwas to everybody else. Asculture dictated at the time,our mother had to leaveboth babies and had to re-

turn to her family, and nor-mally we would have beenraised by our father, but hewas also sent off, with thedisappointment of the di-vorce, so that’s why mygrandmother ended up tak-ing command of the chil-

dren and trying to raise usas her own.

Coming to Canada,did you feel welcome?

I believe so. Apparent-ly I complained loudly forabout two weeks in the

form of temper tantrumsand tears, just wanting togo back home. I wanted togo back to my brother. Butas far as I understand, fromthe general culture, it wasvery welcoming, and Leth-bridge being a very small,Southern Alberta city at thetime, predominately Cauca-sian neighbours – althoughSouthern Alberta did havea large Japanese-Canadianpopulation because of therelocation that happenedduring the SecondWorldWar – but anyways, I do re-member making friendsquickly. I remember it beingfilled with other children.

What was it like grow-ing up Nikkei?

Because mine was a pri-vate adoption, I was kept inclose touch with my birthgrandmother and brother.

I felt well-grounded inboth Canada and Japan,so being Nikkei was a verymulticultural and interna-tional experience for me.I didn’t, however, learn ofthe full Japanese-Canadi-an history and the difficultwar years for Nikkei in thiscountry until I began work-ing at the Nikkei Centre.My family, like many Jap-anese-Canadian families,

didn’t talk about difficul-ties from the past, and mygrandparents, who wouldhave experienced all of thatfirst hand, passed away be-fore I could hear their sto-ries.

I recently found an inter-view from my adopted ma-ternal grandfather in a 1941directory in our library inthe Charles H. Kadota Re-source Centre within theNikkei National Museum,and it felt like he was speak-ing to me, of happier times,before his life in Canadawas completely upended.

Your adoptive auntlived through the SecondWorldWar.What was herexperience like?

Back in the 40s, beforethe war broke out, I thinkshe completed high schoolat the top of her class andshe was encouraged to goto university, but her father,knowing what the worldwas like then, felt it wouldbe better if she took anothercourse of education becauseat that point, there didn’tappear to be any work for auniversity-graduated wom-an in this country, sadly. Ibelieve she aspired to be ateacher or professor.

MUSEUM DIRECTOR

SherriKajiwara

Sherri Kajiwara immigratedto Canada from Japan whenshe was just three years old.Until then, she and her olderbrother had been in the careof their grandmother, whowore many hats, includingrunning a business andtaking care of an ailinghusband.In hopes of giving hera better life, Kajiwara’sgrandmother put her up foradoption. With no knowledgeof the English language orculture, the toddler madethe trip across the PacificOcean and became part of

a family living in Lethbridge,Alta, who shortly aftermoved to Vancouver.Today, Kajiwara is thedirector and curator of theNikkei National Museum andCultural Centre in Burnaby.TheNOW caught up withher to ask what it waslike to grow up “Nikkei,”which means of Japaneseancestry, and what kinds ofthings first-time visitors tothe centre can expect.

A Burnaby business re-ceived a royal visit lastmonth.James and Dinah Lu-

NikkeiCentreexploresJapanese-CanadianstoriesHe, instead, encouraged

her to go to dressmakingschool and did arrange foran arranged marriage backin Japan. She travelled backwith my mother, as a com-panion.

Unfortunately, the warbroke out before my mothercould return to her family.

She ended up beingraised by her relatives inSouthern Japan and com-pleting her entire highschool education there,

which was really challeng-ing.

My mother would havebeen caught between bridg-ing two nations. She wasraised in English really; ob-viously she had conversa-tional Japanese but to get tohigh school-level Japanesein a country that thoughtshe was from Ameri-ca and therefore the ene-my.There was a general-ization back then that all ofNorth America was Ameri-ca, so they didn’t really dis-

cern between Canada andthe United States. She facedracism back in what shouldhave been her mother coun-try.

May wasAsian Her-itage month.What doyou want people to knowabout the Nikkei Nation-al Museum and Cultur-al Centre that perhapsthey’re not aware of?

First off, I’d like them toremember that we’re Asianheritage 365 days of the

year, 24 hours of the dayand we have a mission tohonour, preserve and shareJapanese-Canadian histo-ry and culture for a betterCanada, and that is what westrive to do through our ex-hibits, our programming,our education, our cultur-al events. It’s not just aboutJapanese culture; in fact, it’sJapanese-Canadian heritageand culture. (We have) sushiclasses, workshops, Japaneselanguage (classes) and mar-tial arts.We’re a very good

resource for the history ofJapanese immigrants toCanada. Our whole secondfloor walls are lined with thenarrative, which dates backto 1877, and all of the con-tributions that this particu-lar community has made toCanada.

Is there anything elseyou’d like to add?

In terms of the cen-tre, which opened in 2000,back when I first came toCanada, my adoptive par-

ents made a promise to mybirth grandmother that theywould keep me in the lan-guage and the culture. Itwas very challenging.Theydid enroll me in classi-cal Japanese dance, with aschool in Richmond, but ifthe Nikkei Centre had exist-ed then, it would have madetheir jobs so much easier(laughs).The Nikkei Centre is at

SouthBurnabyonayouthkickVenerable lawn bowling club opens its doors to encourage next generation of [email protected]

Taking two stereotypes and mashing them to-gether to create a new opportunity was the plan-- and so far, the South Burnaby Lawn BowlingClub is trending.

The adage that lawn bowling is just for seniorswith time on their hands has been turned on itshead with the plan to appeal to the computer-ob-sessed younger generation, as the Kingsway clubopens its doors to create a Junior Bowls program,aimed at the teenager market.

The program, geared towards 13 to 20 yearolds, hopes to turn a youthful crowd onto thefun of the outdoor sport, said past club presidentJamesTindle.

“We want to introduce the sport to as manypeople as we can, from the ages 12 and up,”saidTindle, who has spearheaded the project atSouth Burnaby. “It’s really appropriate at this dayand age to get kids active, and provide them adifferent sport where they can be physically activeand not be exposed to a risk of concussion.”

Tindle, a retired psychologist, points to HealthCanada findings of the rising incidences of diabe-tes, which is affected by inactivity and obesity.

While lawn bowling in other countries isn’tconsidered just for old folks, in Canada there isa certain age gap. It’s reflected in the fact that inB.C. onlyTsawassen has a junior program.

Duplicating that at South Burnaby, a clubwhich has been around for nearly 100 years old,would be terrific.

“The image has to change and that is why weare promoting this program... If we can get intothe schools and share our message and our en-thusiasm, maybe it will catch on.We need tochange the image from an old fogey’s sport tosomething that anyone can play.”

What lawn bowling can provide is a game thatis non-contact, unlike soccer, football and la-crosse where concussions are a rising concern,and affordability.The cost for youth to partici-pate for a full season is just $50.

Tindle is himself a recent recruit to the sport.He played hockey into his mid-70s until his doc-tor told him to hang up the skates.

“I was lost for about two years and not veryhappy,” he recalled. “I am a very competitive guywho played (hockey) since the age of four. But Ifound lawn bowling and its really been a bless-ing.”

Introduction trials for new potential juniorbowlers are offered on the second and thirdweeks in June, with the hope a league can be setup to begin play in July.

For more information, call 604-437-3545.

LakersattacksilencedBurnaby strugglesto score in 6-4 lossto [email protected]

The Burnaby Lakers’ ZakBoychuk did his utmost Sun-day to get his team two points,but the Lakers’ offence went si-lent over the final 38 minutes ofregulation and 10 more of over-time in a 6-4 setback to the Ma-ple Ridge Burrards.

The best numbers of the day-- unless you were holding a Lot-to Max winner -- stood behindnetminders Boychuk and FrankScigliano, who carry hockey-likesave percentages after the firstfew weeks of play in theWesternLacrosse Association.

Boychuk turned aside 46shots, including all 18 in themiddle frame as Burnaby pro-tected a 4-2 lead, before thehome team turned the tables.

Although they scored thegame’s first three goals, the Lak-ers fell due to finish, or lackthereof. Eli McLaughlin’s firstgoal with Burnaby, at 1:17 intothe second period, put the visi-tors ahead 4-2, and apparentlyin a good position.

Unfortunately, it didn’t turnout that way.

Maple Ridge scored thegame’s final four goals, includingtwice in overtime, to improve to2-0 on the young season.

“We got off to a good startand we battled hard but thegoalies were the best guys onthe floor,” Burnaby head coachRory McDade said. “We hadour chances, we had a powerplaybut just couldn’t put one past(Burrards’ Scigliano).”

A pair of markers in the third,with the tying tally coming witheight minutes left in regulation,gave the Burrards the momen-tum heading into overtime.

In the 10-minute extra period,Maple Ridge’s Spencer Evansput the Lakers in a deficit for thefirst time in the game at 3:20,followed six minutes later byAaron Davis’ empty net tally.

Scoring Burnaby’s other goalswere Jason Jones, Danny Spag-nuolo and Dane Stevens.

The final moments saw ten-sions boil over as Jesse Fehr,Jones and the Burrards’ DanielAmesbury and Kevin Reid weretossed for a melee that stoppedplay with 15 seconds left. Allfour were tagged with fightingmajors and game misconducts.

The Lakers head to Langleyin search of their second win, to-night (Wednesday) at the LEC.

Proceviatcompletesfinal laps forClanIn his final race as a member of

the Simon Fraser University trackand field team, Burnaby’s CamProceviat may have felt disappoint-ed.

He could also feel satisfied.The Moscrop alum wrapped

up his collegiate athletic career byplacing 10th overall in the 800 me-tres race, posting a time of 1:51.59at the NCAA Division II Outdoortrack and field championships inBradenton, Fla.

A senior, Proceviat placed fourthin the preliminary heat but did notadvance after getting bumped atthe three-quarter mark.

“Cam is so disappointed withthe result,” said Clan head coachBritTownsend. “He needed to be alittle better tactically up with (the)leaders as he got bumped when hewas kicking (the) last 200 metresand pushed to the outside.

“That was enough to throw himoff and he missed by two spots.”

Seeded fifth entering the race,Proceviat was expected to com-pete for a medal, having clocked apersonal best 1:49.28 earlier in theseason. He finishes his SFU careeras one of the most decorated trackand field athletes in the Clan’s sixyears of NCAA competition.

Proceviat, who has a 3.90 GPAin molecular biology and biochem-istry, was a three-time selection tothe Great Northwest Athletic Con-ference’s All-Academic track andfield team and this year he was se-lected to the CoSIDA Div. 2 Ac-ademic All-District 8 track andfield/cross country team.

In his final competitive season,Proceviat was the GNAC indoor800m champion and the outdoorchampionships runner-up in boththe 800- and 1500m.

In addition, Proceviat finished11th at the GNAC cross coun-try championships and earned All-

West Region honors with a 17thplace finish at the NCAAWest Re-gion championships.

Finishing sixth in the 1500mmen’s final was teammate Marc-Antoine Rouleau, with a time of3:50.78, after posting the fast-est qualifying time. He becamethe first SFU male athlete to earnNCAA All-American honours inoutdoor track and field.

“It was a really good race and Iam happy with my performance,”said Rouleau. “I think it was thebest I could do today.There wereothers guys in the race on anotherlevel with pretty good kicks.”
