he began volunteering at thePacific Assistance Dogs So-ciety seven years ago andtoday, he uses his Burna-by-based company to helpfundraise for the non-profit.Jung, the founder and

president of Silver BulletShredding, is bringing hismobile shredder to a fund-raiser for the Burnaby soci-ety this Saturday.I have a passion for

dogs, he said. At the timeI was introduced to PADSand got to see the work thatthey did, the impact thatthe dogs had on their cli-ents really struck a chordwith me.The society raises and

trains assistance dogs tohelp people with mobilityand hearing challenges, aswell as people whove expe-rienced trauma.Jung attended PADS

events in 2008 and wassoon helping out, he said.He joined the board of di-rectors in 2009 and stayedon for two years.Now, he helps the charity

by holding fundraisers withhis mobile shredding truck.Ive always felt it was re-

ally important as a busi-ness owner, regardless ofyour size, to give back to thecommunity where you dobusiness, he said. I justfeel that I can make perhapsa bigger impact support-

ing a local small charity thatdoesnt get a lot of exposureor is under the radar, so tospeak, than, say, a big one.He partners with Rona

on shred-a-thons through-out the Lower Mainland fora number of organizations,including the Autism So-ciety of B.C. and HarvestProject of NorthVancouver.PADS fundraisers often

have the biggest turnout, headded.I find that the puppies

are a big draw, especial-ly with the children, Jungsaid.Working with a local busi-

ness is a good fit for PADS,as well, according to LauraWatamanuk, PADS execu-tive director.Were very appreciative

of our partnership with Sil-ver Bullet and Rona, andtheir support to fund ourtraining program, she said.The document shred-

ding is also intended to helpresidents prevent fraud andidentity theft, as the shred-ding is done on site, so con-fidentiality is maintained.Participants can bring upto four banker boxes ofdocuments, or 100 lbs, tobe shredded. Shredding isdone by donation.There will also be food

and drinks supplied bySave-On Foods, with pro-ceeds going to PADS.The Silver Bullet Com-

Business owner finds a uniqueway to help fund his pet cause

The City of Burnaby is takinga you get what you pay for ap-proach to the nematode packag-es it is ordering to fight the chaferbeetle problem in the city.The city is accepting pre-orders

of the microscopic groundwormsfrom residents at Bill CopelandSports Centre until nextWednes-day.The packages will cost $35.Readers contacted theNOW

about the high price, saying nema-tode packages at city retailers were

about the same price but coveredmore ground.However, Burnabys assistant

director of engineering, DipakDattani, says the city extensivelyresearched its options and chosethe most effective product.A group of us looked at the

problem in early 2000, and lookedat what type of nematode is effec-tive against the European chafer,and this particular species is not-ed in the report as the one thathas the highest kill rates, he said.There are similar products thatare also good but this one, based

on the research that was doneawhile back, that was supposed tobe the most effective one.The city researched the nem-

atode options alongside the Ca-nadian Nursery Landscape As-sociation andWestern CanadianTurfgrass Association, he add-ed, saying the associations recom-mended what the city is ordering.The product is similar to what is

sold at Gardenworks, he said.Gardenworks offers the Ne-

masys product, which covers thesame area 750 square feet for$69.99. Both CanadianTire and

Home Depot offer a number ofnematode products in the $30 to$35 range.The other people who are sell-

ing nematodes, and those can alsobe effective, but theyre a differenttype of a product and theyve got adifferent concentration value, hesaid. So when somebody says thisis the same price and it covers alarger area, I would say that whenwe started into this, it was basedon the research that was done.Two packages of the product

recommended by the CanadianNursery Landscape Association,

which contain 100 million nema-todes in total, can treat a 33 by 45-foot yard.Residents can order up to two

packages of nematodes from thecity, to be picked up by mid-Ju-ly.The city is taking pre-orders ona first-come, first-served basis atthe sports centre from 9 a.m. to 4p.m. on June 19, 22, 23 and 24.Buyers must bring proof of Burn-aby residency to pre-order.The treatment time for nema-

todes is in late July. For more in-formation, go to tinyurl.com/chaferbeetleplan.

VideocapturesMarinePubresuspectByCayleyDobiecdobie@burnabynow.com

Five months after a three-alarm blaze tore through asouth Burnaby pub, Burn-aby RCMP have releasedsurveillance footage of aman lurking around the eat-ery right before the placewent up in flames.TheMarine Pub and

Brewhouse at 5820Ma-rine Dr. was completely de-stroyed by a fire that start-ed around 2:30 a.m. on Jan.10.The fire was deemedsuspicious by firefightersand police quickly took overthe investigation.On the day following the

fire,Marine Pub owner PalSingh told theNOW therewas surveillance footage al-legedly showing an un-

known man walking aroundthe pubs patio and settingfire to two patio chairs be-fore the alarm was triggeredat 2:28 a.m.Unfortunately, there

hadnt been much progressin the case, until now.The video was smoke-

damaged when the officersseized it and so, fortunately,our forensic video analysisunit was able to extract theimages, Cpl. Daniela Pan-esar, spokesperson for theBurnaby RCMP, told theNOW.The video, which is about

two minutes long, showsa man wearing light-co-loured pants and a darkjacket skulking around theback of the pub.He liftsthe lid to a garbage bin andthen walks out of view. In

the next frame, the sameman can be seen climbingthrough the open patio win-dow and walking into thepub.Meanwhile, a fire canbe seen burning below thepatio deck.Four minutes later, at

2:31 a.m., according to thevideo time stamp, flamescan be seen crawling up thepatio lattice and onto thedeck.Moments later the

man comes back out to thepatio, grabs a couple patiochairs and places them inthe flames.According to police, the

suspect was seen in othervideo footage driving intothe parking lot in a new-er model light-coloured car.Investigators are now look-ing for any information thatcould lead them to the iden-tity of the man in the video.

This is the individu-al that we want to speakto because he was seen atthe pub at about 2:25a.m., so just before the fire,so were very interested inidentifying the man, Pan-esar said. Doesnt matterhow small or insignificantit seems, they can give theBurnaby RCMP a call orCrime Stoppers.The suspect is described

as a man with dark features,between 30 to 35 years oldwith a medium build anddark hair. He was wearinga dark jacket, whiteT-shirt,white runners and light-co-loured pants.Anyone with informa-

tion is asked to call BurnabyRCMP at 604-294-7922 orCrime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).

Sometimes the checksand balances in the demo-cratic process work.This past week the recall

campaign to oust BurnabyNorth Liberal MLA Rich-ardT. Lee fizzled out.Organizers blamed the

short time span required tocollect signatures 60 days,and voter apathy. Grant-ed, the requirements to geta recall action moving arenot easy. Canvassers mustget 40 per cent of registeredvoters to say yes to the re-

call within the two-monthspan, which would be about16,500 signatures in Leesriding.But that is as it should be.This recall movement di-

rected at Lee was naked-ly partisan. Lees failures, inthe organizers minds, werereally the failures of Pre-mier Christy Clark and theB.C. Liberals. Lee, if hesguilty of anything, is of be-ing a good soldier in herarmy.Around Burnaby hesknown as an MLA who is

approachable and prettymuch at every shindig andawards ceremony hes in-vited to in the city. Contrastthat with some previousLiberal MLAs Harry Bloycomes to mind and youget the picture.Now, some might say that

the whole recall campaignwas just a way of gather-ing voter data as a precursorto the next election. In fact,the organizers said theywere not releasing the num-ber of signatures they gath-

ered for strategic purpos-es and to avoid tipping offthe Liberal camp.Frankly, if that was the

purpose, organizers willhave to share the blame forvoter apathy. Such decep-tive tactics only fuel voter

apathy and cynicism.Mostvoters arent stupid andthey dont like unfairness orhitting below the belt.Tar-geting Lee with recall actionbased on provincial Liber-al policies might even gainLee some new support.What organizers did find

out and reveal not sur-prisingly, was that vot-ers were concerned aboutBurnaby Hospital.The lackof funding and concrete fu-ture plans for the hospi-tal should concern all of us.

And Lee bears responsibili-ty for not being a championfor this hospital and for par-ticipating in past sham po-litical sideshows on upgrad-ing the hospital.Does that merit recall?

We dont think so. But itshould make voters pauseand consider exactly whythey would vote for him inthe next election.

Weneedtoxinternal tradeIt is an embarrassing

state of affairs when manysmall businesses report thatNorth-South trade with theU.S. is easier than East-Westtrade within Canada.But this is nothing new.

It was such a big concernwhen the North Ameri-can FreeTradeAgreementwas coming into force morethan two decades ago thatthe provinces put in placethe Agreement on InternalTrade.Unfortunately, thatagreement has been a colos-sal failure.Fast forward to today and

the prospects of a trade dealwith Europe.Do we wantit to be easier for Canadi-an businesses to trade withother countries than otherprovinces?Well, of coursenot. But the big question oneveryones mind is wheth-er Canadas provincial andfederal governments can de-liver a better outcome thanlast time around.There are some reasons

for optimism.On the pre-miers direction, Canadastrade ministers met for thefirst time in four years earli-er this week to work towardaMarch 2016 deadline tohave a new agreement inplace.As part of a busi-ness coalition, I present-ed to the group.The thingthat struck me most wasthe non-partisan environ-ment in the room. Politi-cians of all stripes seem seri-ous about working togetherfor the good of the country.They are all saying the rightthings. But saying the rightthings is the easy part. Do-ing the right thing is harder.

How important is it thatwe get it right this time?Very.An overwhelming ma-jority nine out of 10 ofCanadas small businesseswant the premiers to makefree trade within Canada apriority, according to a re-cent survey done by the Ca-nadian Federation of Inde-pendent Business.A successful agreement

will have three characteris-tics. It will be comprehen-sive, covering all goods andservices, with any excep-tions clearly listed.Accept-ing each others regulatorystandards (mutual recogni-tion) will be the default.Thealternative to accepting eachothers rules is trying to har-monize everything, which isa nightmare of epic propor-tions in terms of time andenergy. Finally, the agree-ment will be simple, with aclear and effective disputemechanism.We are at a crossroads

where provincial leaders candecide to be ambitious andfinally make Canada free.They will likely be temptedto focus on eliminating onlysome barriers.This wouldbe a mistake.Only an ambitious deal

will lead to the ambitiousoutcomes that Canadaneeds in the modern world.Canada turns 150 in 2017. Ican think of no better birth-day present for the countrythan to deliver a real tradeagreement that unites us increating new opportunities.Laura Jones is executive

vice-president of the Canadi-an Federation of IndependentBusiness.

TheNOW faced a conundrum in April after offers ofhelp poured into the newspaper office for a young familythat lost everything in an apartment fire.A couple and theirtwo-year-old son were left literally shoeless after a fire torethrough theirTelford Street apartment. On social assis-tance, the couple had appealed for help from the public inaNOW article.That help came as readers offered clothes,shoes, even a house to rent.The family, however, had va-cated their motel and left no contact information.

A bookkeeper who plead-ed guilty to defrauding aBurnaby school of $66,000has opted for a second timeto tell the court shes notguilty.Jodi Fingarsen, a 48-year-

old former bookkeeperat Alpha Secondary, wascharged with fraud over

$5,000 in February 2013for allegedly writing 66 ir-regular cheques between2008 and 2010.She originally pleaded not

guilty, and her case was setfor trial in February 2014.But, by Feb. 17, 2014, she

had changed her mind andpleaded guilty instead.That plea was thrown out

at a sentencing hearing fourmonths later, however, by a

provincial court judge whosaid the former bookkeep-er hadnt actually acknowl-edged guilt.Since then, Fingarsen has

been scheduled to pleadguilty five times, but eachtime her case has been ad-journed at the request of her

Burnaby NeighbourhoodHouse and with MoreSports Canada.For Anteros, who arrived

in Canada with six siblingsand a single mother, thework has been a way to giveback.She said it just didnt feel

right to accept the supporther family was given with-out giving something in re-turn.I cant receive and not

give anything, she said.To me, that does not feelright.As humans, we shouldall try to help each otheras best as we can becausewere all struggling.She credits her mom for

her attitude.Shes a single mother,

and raising us, it was hard,Anteros said. Theres sevenkids in my family. I have alot of friends whose parentshave just kind of given upon themMymother, shejust never gives up. Shes al-ways giving us support, nomatter what we do in aca-demics or anything. Gettingthat alone is uplifting andencourages me to give oth-ers support as well becauseI know how it feels to havesupport, and Ive seen whatit looks to not have sup-port.Anteros said the extra

programs at Edmonds El-ementary, a school she at-tended for her first five years

in Canada, also helped de-velop her potential.Friendship Club a

Burnaby NeighbourhoodHouse program that con-nects newcomers with oth-er students and mentors stands out.I joined and I started

making new friends and Iwas learning more vocab-ulary as well, just like that,just because I was sur-rounded by people whospoke more English,Ante-ros said. It connected mewith many other things aswell.

In the fall,Anteros will bethe second of her siblings toattend university; her oldestsister is currently at Concor-dia in Montreal.Anteros has chosen the

PETS PAGEPROFESSIONAL CAREFOR AGING PETS

What makes veterinary professionals takeup pet care as a profession? Undoubtedlyits the passion and will to help animals intheir time of need. The biggest benefit of thisdesire lends to the fact that compassion is notrequired to be taught during the training ofa veterinary professional. The beauty of petcare also derives from the patients familybeing an extension of the veterinary team. Intime of illness, aging and even in good health,the family is essentially the at-home nursingstaff of the veterinary community. Our petsare adorably expressive about a lot of things(ask any pet parent and hear their pets uniqueability to express itself), but when it comes tosharing what they ate off the floor, which alleycat may have fought with them, feeling a toothache or nausea, the information is not alwaysas forthcoming (nor as endearing!).

Signs of chronic life affecting conditionssuch as allergies, gastric problems, arthritis,diminished eyesight & hearing, anxiety andobesity are often subtle to start with. Overtime, these signs slowly progress and withoutkeen observation and routine monitoringof well being, such symptoms can be easilymissed. Do you know what the generalsymptoms associated with such illness might be?

There is the usually a big range of nonspecificsigns associated with chronic conditions suchas arthritic pain, anxiety, allergies etc. Asan example, when an older pet is pacing andvocalizing for no apparent reason; this may bedue to a range of possibilities including spinalpain, loss of sensory functions (eyesight,hearing etc), due to anxiety related to changesin the environment, or even an old age illness.No pet owner or veterinarian can simply hearthe description of the symptoms and makea diagnosis. To best help a pet with medicalconcerns and to diagnose illness early; thecombination of a close bond between the petand parent, clear communication betweenthe parent and veterinary team, a thoroughevaluation of health as well as compassiontowards the implications of potential ill healthare essential.

While compassion is second nature toveterinary professionals (think veterinarians,vet technicians, office assistants, kennelattendants), it is best used while helpingnurture improved pet parenting throughloving pet owners. This is why the veterinarycommunity is advising increased vet visits.Advertising campaigns on the role of nutrition,exercise and monitoring of pet health, as wellas special events at vet clinics are all gearedtowards improved pet parent education. Afterall, by bringing in a pet to their family, petowners are signing up to be an extension ofthe pet healthcare system. As the CanadianNurses Association likes to say, health beginsat home!

PERFECTGIFT FORDAD


Inclusionfestahit inBurnabyLocal residents came out

to ErnieWinch Park Satur-day to celebrate the secondInclusion Festival in Burn-aby.The multicultural festi-

val was organized by Mar-leni Curi, a local mom, whowanted to promote inclu-sion as an alternative to bul-lying.It was great. It was

amazing how we plannedfor 300 people, and I thinkwe had double, Curi toldtheNOW. Im very happyabout that.Curi got a grant from the

Vancouver Foundation tocover the costs of the festi-val, and the City of Burna-by pitched in some funding,as well.The event included food

and multicultural per-formances. Communitygroups and organizationshad booths set up with ac-tivities for kids and informa-tion for the attendees.Before the big day, Curi

went door knocking aroundthe park, personally invit-

ing residents from the sur-rounding blocks.That tac-tic seemed to work, as somefestival-goers said they cameout because they prom-ised Curi they would attend.Curi was moved to tearsby a homeless person whothanked her because he wasable to eat.

Nobody asked him (any-thing). No questions, justgave him food. It was amaz-ing, she said. Thats mygift: to leave this feeling.Curi hopes to organize

another, larger InclusionFestival next year.This is growing.May-

be next year well plan for600 people, Curi said. Itspossible to grow a little bitmore.

FREE CONCERT


The ride is smooth and the cabin isquiet. The level of renement isimpressive in a SUV; the Explorerfeelsmore expensive thanwhatthe price tag indicates.

The standard engine is a3.5-litre V6.While the 290 hp isnot that exciting, it is adequateformost peoples needs. It isavailable in both front-wheel and4-wheel drive congurations.

Those wanting better fueleconomy can opt for theturbocharged 2.0-litre EcoBoost4-cylinder. The 8.5L/100km highwayrating is admirable, but this engine is onlyavailable in FWD and acceleration feels sluggish.

Sport models are all 4WD and are powered by a 3.5-litreEcoBoost V6. The 365 hp makes the Explorer muchmore spirited and the drop in fuel efciency is not muchfrom the base V6.

Nomatterwhich engine you choose, all Explorermodelsare equippedwith a 6-speed automatic transmission;the V6models get Fords SelectShift that allows driverstomanually change gears Sportmodels can do sowithpaddle shiftersmounted to the steeringwheel.

Another important aspect of SUVs is towing ability. All V6Explorers, including the Sportmodel, are rated at 5,000 lbs.The 4-cylinder, however, can only haul 2,000 lbs.

Since the Explorer is designed to feelmore at home on themotorway, front and side visibility is good. To compensatefor the poor rearward sightlines, the sidemirrors are largeand the optional blind spotwarning systemand rearviewcamera are recommended. Otherwise tight, busy streetsand parking lots can be a bit of a challenge.

Thats not to say the Explorer cant go off-road. 4WDmodels come with Terrain Management System, whichallows drivers to optimize settings for snow, mud orsand. Also helping it to off-road effectively is its 7.5-inchground clearance which is more than sufcient forcasual off-roaders.

At Home on the Open Road

EnvironmentSitting inside the Explorer, thecabin feels cavernous. Thewidth isespecially noticeable as passengersfeel that there is a lot of shoulderandmove-around space.

That spaciousness extends to therear aswell, where average-sizeadults should feel quite comfortablein the second row. Legroom isntgreatwith the bench seat, but it canrecline and the captains chairs have to

slide back some.Headroom is never anissue throughout the cabin.

Accessing the third row ismade easy, thanks tothe second rows ability to fold completely forward.

Once seated in either of the two rear seats, the legroom istightmaking thembest suited for children.

The Explorer has amassive amount of cargo space. andit gives you several different congurations toworkwith.Behind the third row is 21 cubic feet of volume. The thirdrow can fold forward, or ip back creating a at loadingsurface and increase capacity to 43.8 cubic feet.

If that is not enough, the second row also folds at to offerup a total of 80.7 cubic feet. The optional power liftgate andpower folding third rowmake thewhole process a breeze.

Entertainment can be enhanced fromone of three availableaudio systems. Fords SYNC infotainment system isstandard on all but the basemodelwhere it is an option.

FeaturesThe Explorer is available in base, XLT, Limited and Sporttrim levels. Starting prices range from$31,149 to $48,449.

Standard equipment includes an integrated key fob,illuminated entry, single-zone climate control with rearauxiliary controls, power windows and locks, manualtilt and telescoping steering column, cruise control, andLED taillights.

Additional features, available as options or on higher trims,include push-button start, remote start, dual-zone climatecontrol, power steering column, a heated steeringwheel,power-adjustable pedals, heated and cooled bucket seats,auto-dimming rearviewmirror, adaptive cruise control,voice activated navigation, and a dual-panelmoonroof.

Fuel efciencynumbers (L/100km) for the standardV6are12.2 city, 8.2highway inFWDand14.2 city, 10.3highway in4WD.Theoptional4-cylinder returns11.9 city, 8.5highway,while the turboV6 is ratedat14.9 city, 10.7highway.

Thumbs UpThe Ford Explorer is comfortable and its fuel efciency isgood for an SUV. Its versatilitymakes it useful for large,active families.

Thumbs DownWhile its cargo capacity is a plus, the added bulkmeansit is not as nimble as others in this class. It doesnt look asmodern as some newer SUVs on themarket.

The Bottom LineIf you need a vehicle that can comfortably carry yourwholefamilywhile retaining the Ford truck toughness, the FordExplorer isworth a test drive.

In the three-rowSUVmarket, the Ford Explorerhas long been amajor player and has provenitself to be a reliable partner.

While the Explorer is no longer the ruggedoff-roader it oncewas, it competes effectivelywith other popular SUVwith a tough design andgreat features. Its rivals include theHonda Pilot,

ToyotaHighlander andDodgeDurango.

For 2015, changes to the Explorer are minor. The onlynoteworthy addition is a sportier cosmetic package forthe XLT models.

DesignLikemost vehicles in this category, the Ford Explorerputs an emphasis on on-road renement versus off-roadtoughness. It nowuses a car-like chassis and offerspremium features such as a voice activated navigation andupscale options like a rear-seat entertainment package.This is all tomeet the ever increasing demand for acrossover type vehicle asmore andmore people look forcar-style comfort in a SUVpackage.

The long horizontal creases along the sides create asense of motion. However, if you want your Explorerto look even more aggressive, the XLT AppearancePackage adds a dark grille, black side and rear claddingand 20-inch wheels.

Ultimately, if intimidation iswhat you seek, you cantbeat the Explorer Sport.With a black grille, dark chromewheels and an overall get-out-of-my-way demeanor, theExplorer Sport is easily themost aggressivemodel.

The Explorermakes themost of its space. The cabin offersthree rows of seating,with the second row available ineither a 3-person bench of two bucket seats. The designis not all that trendy but it has that traditional Ford truck/SUV feel all aroundwhich is a plus for thosewho are loyalto the Ford truck products.

PerformanceThe Explorer drivesmuchmore like a car than a truck.
