It hit allthe stops

The sun came out to shine onthe annual Hats Off Day in theHeights on Saturday.

The popular event attractsthousands of visitors to NorthBurnaby’s main strip and promis-es a little something for everyone.

“What makes Hats Of Day sospecial is all of the little things youfind from end to end,” said IsabelKolic, director of the HeightsMerchants Association. “You can’twalk more than one metre withoutstumbling across entertainment orsomething delicious to eat, mer-chants giving out prizes or some-thing for the kids.”

The turnout at this year’s HatsOff Day may have been the high-est yet, Kolic said.

Burnaby school board chairDiana Mumford is raising concernsabout the comptroller general’sreport on the Vancouver schoolboard, a report alleging trusteesare to blame for the district’s mul-timillion dollar deficit.

With a $16.32 million budgetshortfall on hand, the Vancouverschool board has been condemn-ing the provincial government forunder funding education whileconsidering cuts to balance itsbudget. The Education Ministryasked comptroller general CherylWenezenki-Yolland to investigatethe board’s financial dealings andreport back.

Her report, released June 4, crit-icizes the board for focusing toomuch on political advocacy ratherthan managing its own affairs.

“The current board of trusteeshas not demonstrated they havethe management capacity to effec-tively govern the Vancouver schoolboard or fulfill all of their account-abilities and duties of the (School)Act,” Wenezenki-Yolland wrote inthe report. “This is evidenced bythe quality of board discussions,their focus on short-term decisions

Armchair athletes who’ve ever imag-ined what it must be like to skate andstickhandle like Wayne Gretzky willsoon have the chance to find out. Sortof.

Burnaby game-designing companyElectronic Arts announced last weekthey are developing their first ever NHLhockey title for the Nintendo Wii con-sole, NHL Slapshot, and that the GreatOne himself will grace the cover.

“EA Sports has been making greathockey games in Canada for 20 yearsnow, and the team behind the game isreally passionate about the sport,” saidGretzky in a prepared statement. “Beingon the cover of the new Wii version ofthe game is exciting and is probablygoing to make me a bit cooler in the eyesof my kids.”

Instead of simply pressing buttonsto simulate playing actual hockey, thenew game will introduce an innovative53-centimetre, motion sensing hockeystick that players can snap togetherand house the Wii Remote controllerto allow them to shoot and pass (not tomention spear and cross-check) just likethe pros.

“Making our games as close to thereal thing has always been our focus,”said EA Sports creative director DavidLittman, who knows a thing or twoabout pro hockey after briefly playingbetween the pipes in the NHL. “Nowwe are giving players an actual plastichockey stick that the Wii Remote andNunchuk controllers plug into. Playerscan then use the new stick to do all themoves in the game.”

NHL Slapshot will also allow playersto progress from “Peewees to Pros” byproviding the option of stepping intothe skates of a pre-pubescent Gretzky(or Crosby, Luongo, etc.) and watchingthem grow up and acquire new skillsas they progress on their way to the bigleagues.

The new game is expected to hitshelves by early September. While itwon’t offer an online mode, players canupdate their rosters with a free down-load and up to four players will be ableto hit the ice in front of the same TV.

News is aconversation - and

it starts here

Contractors are working quickly tocomplete the majority of the Deer LakePark renovation project in time for thissummer’s festival season and, so far,everything is on schedule.

Most of the work for phase two ofthe project should be completed by July11, in time for the Vancouver SymphonyOrchestra’s Symphony in the Park con-cert, according to Geraldine Parent, artservices manager for the city.

Event organizers are expecting approx-imately 10,000 to 12,000 people to attendthe free concert, Parent said.

The grass has been planted, and electri-cal work is being completed, placing elec-trical outlets throughout the park to helpwith lighting and electricity for events.

The only thing interfering with thework at Deer Lake Park is the weather,Parent said.

“We’ve had a sloppy May,” she said.“But it (the renovation) has been relativelysmooth.”

All of the people working on the proj-ect, including city staff and contractors,

have done a great job, according to DenisNokony, assistant director of cultural ser-vices for Burnaby.

Wilco Landscape Westcoast Inc. is thecontractor for both phase one and two ofthe renovation project. PWL LandscapeArchitects is the lead consulting firm onthe project.

The contractor should have most of thework completed within thenext couple of weeks, accord-ing to Meredith Botta, parkdesigner and project man-ager.

The second phase includedupgrades to the festival lawnoutdoor concert venue, partic-ularly electrical, drainage andwater services. The lawn wasalso leveled and reinforcedfor service vehicle traffic in some areas.Park entrances, roadways and paths havealso been improved, with several pathsand roads being widened and repaved,Botta wrote in an e-mail.

Decorative fencing, between granite-clad columns with embedded lights, hasbeen erected on the east and west sidesof the festival zone to mark the area, she

added.Much of the project focused on the

Spirit Square installation expandingthe current terrace outside the ShadboltCentre for the Arts.

The Spirit Square, funded by a $500,000grant under the provincial Spirit SquareProgram in 2008, has expanded the veran-da by about 40 per cent and now features

a large Zelcova tree and theVitality sculpture, installed inMay.

The sculpture, by ThomasCannell, is composed of fourlarge basalt columns repre-senting a family, in a base thatrepresents a canoe.

The plan for the square alsoincludes new wooden seatingledges and improved lighting.

The square’s grand opening will takeplace at Burnaby’s Discovery Day celebra-tion on July 18.

Deer Lake Park is an important part ofBurnaby, Nokony said, and the improve-ments could make it an even more popu-lar spot.

“It’s a very valued area of the city,”

Nokony said.Burnaby council recently

approved plans to hold upto 10 outdoor concerts annu-ally at Deer Lake Park, onthe festival lawn, betweenMay 1 and Sept. 10.

Nokony added that DeerLake Park is a perfect fit forconcerts, as it is a naturalamphitheatre.

He hopes to work withpromoter Live Nation,which has held popularticketed concerts there in

the past, to produce futureconcerts.

“We appreciate theirinvolvement in our celebra-tions.”

The majority of the reno-vations should be complet-ed well in advance of this

summer’s big concert, theBurnaby Blues and RootsFestival, on August 14.

The budget for the proj-ect was $1.7 million, includ-ing the Spirit Square grantfrom the B.C. government.

at the expense of long-term sustain-ability, the lack of strategic and long-term plans and an unbalanced focuson advocacy versus financial steward-ship, delaying decisions that wouldsee the effective use of existing oravailable resources.”

The Burnaby school board has longcriticized the provincial governmentfor not giving districts enough moneyto do their jobs. While the Vancouverdistrict has a budget of about $500million and a $16.32 million deficit,Burnaby’s budget is about $200 mil-lion and its deficit is now $5.2 mil-lion. By law, school districts cannotcarry deficits; they must make cuts tobalance the budget if they are shortmoney.

As for the under funding issue,Mumford pointed to a line inWenezenki-Yolland’s report statingthe structure of the provincial fundingmodel for education was specifically

excluded from the review.“Right from the get-go, they were

never looking at the funding piece ofit, what districts were getting. Theywere only judging how districts usedit,” she said.

Although Mumford didn’t want topass judgment on Vancouver’s financ-es, she views the report as a way forthe government to blame Vancouver’swoes on financial mismanagementrather than lack of government fund-ing.

“I don’t agree with that. I think it’spolitics. I think it’s political on bothsides of the spectrum,” she said. “Bothsides are frustrated by it all, but I don’tbelieve we are over funded in ourdistrict or funded for the full needswe have.”

Mumford also disagreed withone of the report’s suggestions thatVancouver could make more moneyby charging non-profit groups higherrental fees for school facilities.

She also pointed out that

Wenezenki-Yolland works for theFinance Ministry, not “an independentbody in any way, shape or form.”

Local NDP MLA Kathy Corriganchaired the Burnaby board beforeshe entered provincial politics.Corrigan also declined to comment onVancouver’s financial dealings, sayingshe wasn’t sure if there are savingsto be found, but she said Wenezenki-Yolland is being portrayed as an inde-pendent watchdog and it’s impor-tant to remember she’s a governmentemployee.

“I think it would be nice if theauditor general could take a look atit,” Corrigan said. She also echoedMumford’s comment that Wenezenki-Yolland did not look at the govern-ment funding in her report.

“I know from my years on theBurnaby school board that serviceswere very effectively and efficientlydelivered,” she said, adding districtsacross B.C. are having financial prob-lems.

Walter Koblbauer, wholives in the 4500-block ofRumble Street, is upset thatthe new garbage pickupsystem requires area resi-dents to lug their trash upa flight of stairs to streetlevel.

But that may changeonce the city’s engineer-ing department inspectsthe neighbourhood to seeif another solution is pos-sible.

“I’ve asked people,and nobody wants it onRumble,” Koblbauer said,adding he had collected10 signatures from neigh-bours, which he sent with aletter to the mayor and citycouncil last week.

The laneway behind thehouses is too narrow forthe new garbage trucks,and the city has asked resi-dents to place garbage totesin front of their homes forpick up.

The problem, Koblbauersaid, is that the elevationdifference between the laneand street level is betweenfive to seven feet.

This means residentshave to carry the toters upstairs and pathways.

“We want the city totake care of the problem,Koblbauer said.

There hasn’t been a prob-lem with garbage pickupbefore this, said Koblbauer,who has lived on RumbleStreet since 1979.

He added that the 4600,4700 and 4800-blocks ofRumble Street have lanesthat are the same width asthe lane behind the 4500-blockbut residents therehave not had to take theirtrash to street level.

The city is reevaluatingthe situation, according toLambert Chu, director of

engineering.Some areas of the city

are difficult for the larger,longer trucks to access,

said Chu, who added hewill be going to inspect thelocation.

It was rather fitting the leg-islature ended its springsession with a debate over

energy policy, and not the HST.After all, the B.C. Liberal gov-

ernment’s new Clean Energy Actand overall energy policy willbe part of public dis-cussion for years tocome. The clamourover the HST, how-ever, will eventually die downone way or another (either thetax becomes embedded in ourdaily lives to the point of hardlybeing noticed, or the govern-ment scraps it).

On the other hand, the loca-tion and ownership of futureenergy projects (mostly small-scale run-of-river or windturbine projects) will becomeincreasingly controversial, espe-cially in the communities nearthem.

As well, the price we pay forenergy use also looms as a hot-button issue for the future. TheHST will eventually be part ofeveryday life, but your monthlyB.C. Hydro bill will serve as aconstant reminder of the shiftingsands of our energy system.

One of the most controver-sial aspects of Bill 17, the CleanEnergy Act, is that it removesB.C. Hydro from the oversight ofthe B.C. Utilities Commission.

Critics have assailed thismove as a blatant power grabby the provincial cabinet, whichwill now dictate much of ourenergy policy without an inde-

pendent set of expert eyes inplace to provide the proverbialsecond look.

The $10 billion or so B.C.Hydro is being told to spendover the next decade will nowbe done without any oversight.

Such initiatives as the$1-billion Smart Meterprogram will not bescrutinized.

Those private power projectsthat contract with B.C. Hydrowill also escape scrutiny, thusguaranteeing them to be anongoing source of controversyas well.

The NDP has decried thisneutering of the utilities com-mission, but the party hardlyhas clean hands on this issue. Infact, it was the NDP governmentof the late 1990s that also under-mined the commission throughsuch politically motivatedactions as cabinet-ordered B.C.Hydro rate freezes.

While still Opposition leader,Gordon Campbell insisted hisgovernment would restore thepolitical independence of theutilities commission. But thatindependence was short-lived,and when the commission reject-ed the government’s energy planlast year the writing was on thewall.

The B.C. Liberal governmenthas long made it clear it wantsto establish a flourishing privateenergy industry in this provincethat will develop so-called

Transparency is key to following the moneyThere are probably as many differ-

ent opinions on the report of the LocalGovernment Elections Task Force asthere are – well – dusty reports stackedin old government offices.

But here’s another one: Wethink it’s a pretty weak attemptat renovating the municipalelections system. But we alsothink that given the patheticinterest shown by most voters duringmunicipal elections, it probably willexceed most voters’ expectations.

Burnaby Mayor Derek Corrigan

was quoted last week as saying that,essentially, one of the discussion points– campaign spending restrictions – wasunnecessary in smaller communities.And, naturally, Corrigan was also against

limiting contributions fromunions (although he didn’t sayhe was against limiting themfrom corporations – but we sus-pect he’d be against both). We

agree with him on this as well.Limiting donations to individuals

would pretty well mean that candidateswould be footing huge campaign expens-

es – and that would mean that only well-to-do folks would have an opportunityto run.

Some might say that Burnaby is wellpast the “smaller community” designa-tion and given the amounts spent inthe city – roughly half a million dollarsfor both civic parties and independents– we might just be getting into the bigleagues.

But we agree with Corrigan. It’s notthe amounts that matter, it’s being ableto follow the money.

The problem is that if you have no

limits on local election campaign spend-ing – you’d better be very transparentand prompt with filing campaign disclo-sures.

Burnaby, alas, was one of the fewmunicipalities that still required jour-nalists to go down to city hall and poreover documents (no copying allowed) tofind out who spent what during the lastcampaign.

We hope that will change for the nextelection.

Because, if it doesn’t, well, actionsspeak much louder than words.

Ball hockey tourney earns kudosDear Editor:

Re: Ball hockey plays on in city, Burnaby NOW,June 5.

Thank you for your recent article regarding thisevent in the Burnaby NOW. My 10-year-old sonparticipated in this tournament for the first time.First of all, the venue was terrific. We live close toMetropolis, so we were able to walk. The event wasextremely well organized. All the volunteers andpeople involved in this event were so helpful andevidently enthusiastic about ball hockey. It was niceto see so many families and youth out enjoying asport that is becoming increasingly popular.

My son enjoyed the experience tremendously.

He’s already talking about putting his team togetherfor next year! I hope Play On becomes an annualevent in Burnaby. It’s great for Burnaby tourism,especially when we didn’t get the chance to showoff our fine city during the Olympics.

“clean” power and exportit for profit outside theprovince.

Critics claim this modelwill have an impact onB.C. Hydro’s rates, boost-ing them upward. Thenthere’s the argument aboutthe inevitable environmen-tal footprint left by energyprojects, which will be sig-nificant no matter what thesize of the facility.

Adding spice to thisdebate is the role of FirstNations bands, some ofwhich are business part-ners of private energycompanies because theysee these projects as help-ing to lift their membersout of poverty.

It’s hard to predict howall this is going to go. Forexample, for all the claims

that the B.C. Liberals havesome sort of secret plan tosell our rivers to privateinterests, there is evidencethat the relationshipbetween the governmentand independent powerproducers may be fractur-ing, at least a little.

A number of companiesthat failed to win approvalfrom B.C. Hydro’s cleanpower call are upset aboutwhat they consider to bean unclear bidding pro-cess.

And one company,along with the FirstNations band that isinvolved in its proposedpower project, has evenfiled a lawsuit againstthe government becauseEnvironment MinisterBarry Penner recently toldthe legislature he had no

intention of altering pro-vincial park boundaries toaccommodate the project,even though the companyclaims the government hadearlier agreed to do pre-cisely that.

Sure, the HST continuesto be a fevered topic ofdebate and denunciation.And it’s not like the taxwill be out of the headlinesanytime soon.

But the energy debate isjust getting started. It maybe over for now inside thelegislature, but make nomistake: Energy policy,not taxes, is going to havea bigger and longer lastingimpact on what our politi-cians are arguing about themost.

Keith Baldrey is chiefpolitical reporter for GlobalB.C.


Energy: Policy will have big impact

more than $16 billion), how are they goingto recoup the seven per cent PST fundingthat supposedly helped to finance oursocial services, including education andhealth services.

The provincial government has alreadyadmitted that the HST will go to Ottawaand that provincially it will be revenueneutral. With the loss of that seven percent tax, how does the government planto finance its obligations to the people inB.C.?

I also wonder why they have failedto advise us that Alberta and Manitobarefused it entirely (Saskatchewan kickedit out after a year-and-a-half because ofthe economic disaster it caused) and thatin the Atlantic provinces that employedit, the economy is worse than ever andthe HST keeps going up. And look at theeconomic mess in Europe where the VAT(our HST) has been employed for years,also constantly going up.

Why does the Campbell governmentinsist it will be good for business? It neverhas been, and for many small businesses,it will be the death knell. I know, because Iam one of them, and no rebate will be com-ing back to me in order to pass that alongto my customers.

Leakage just the tip of anunderground iceberg?

Dear Editor:I live two blocks from the Chevron oil

storage tanks and have been followingdevelopments respecting their reported oilleak with interest.

I understand that a small amount isinvolved, less than 50 litres, and that theoil is percolating out of the ground. I alsounderstand that they have so far beenunable to find the source of the contami-nation.

I have toured the refinery twice andoften walk in the park and on the beachnearby. My concern is the fear that largeamounts of contaminants have leaked intothe environment during the 75 years sincethe refinery started operating. I suspectthat the small spill that has been reportedis the very smallest tip of the iceberg andthat the entire refinery site is contami-nated.

I think there needs to be a governmentinvestigation to determine the scope ofthe problem, whether there is any riskto human health and what action shouldbe taken to deal with the problem. Theappropriate authority to carry out suchan inquiry would be a panel of expertsappointed by the provincial Ministry ofthe Environment.

“Sometimes it’s impos-sible for the (new) trucks toget through,” he explained.But he hopes to come upwith a solution for the 4500-block.

One possibility is chang-ing the direction from whichthe trucks access the lane,Chu said.

But other than com-plaints regarding the lanebehind Rumble Street, andoccasional calls when gar-bage has not been pickedup because toters have beenplaced too closely together,the new system has gar-nered positive feedback, hesaid.

The injury rate to driv-ers and employees is downsignificantly, with the newmechanical arm to emptythe toters, Chu added.

Residents who havecomplained about a missedpickup are informed thattoters have to be kept onemetre apart, with one metreof space on each side, for themechanical arm to lift thecontainers. A special pickup is then scheduled for theresident, Chu said.

There have also beencomplaints about the yardwaste toters, which do notalways empty properlywhen packed tightly, hesaid. Residents should try toavoid pressing and packingwet grass tightly into thetoters, and drivers are nowusing the arm to shake thecontainers back and forth,

to stop waste from being leftinside, Chu added.

But garbage toters shouldbe a little lighter this weekas residents can now recy-cle food scraps in the yardwaste bins provided by thecity.

The food waste collec-tion program for single andduplex homes started onMonday, according to Chu.

All food scraps, includ-ing bones, can be placed inthe yard waste toters. Wastefrom the toters will be pickedup on a weekly basis, alongwith trash pickups.

Residents should not dis-pose of food waste in plasticbags.

The City of Burnaby sug-gests using a plastic pail,such as an ice cream bucket,to collect the scraps and rec-ommends residents line the

pail with newspaper first.Paper bags can also be

used to hold scraps. Foodwaste, such as paper towelsand pizza boxes, can alsobe placed in the yard wastecontainers.

The city’s waste andrecycling collection services35,000 single- and two-fam-ily households in Burnaby,according to Chu’s 2009year in review report on col-lection services.

The city estimates thatabout 50 per cent of residen-tial garbage is actually foodwaste.

The watchdog for children andyouth and the provincial governmenthave come to terms over a disputeabout access to cabinet documents,thanks to the help of mediator TedHughes.

Mary Ellen Turpel-Lafond is B.C.’srepresentative for children and youth,a role set up to oversee the province’schild welfare system.

On May 14, she won a court casethat forced the provincial govern-

ment to release cabinet documentsshe said she needed to complete anaudit of a child welfare program.

But that was only part of the battle.The B.C. government had also intro-duced legislation that would haverestricted Turpel-Lafond’s accessto cabinet documents retroactivelyby changing the Representative forChildren and Youth Act, the law out-lining the representative’s role. Thegovernment’s position was that cabi-net documents are confidential.

Hughes, a retired judge, steppedin to mediate between the two par-ties. It was Hughes’s 2006 report,criticizing B.C.’s child welfare sys-tem, that originally pressured theprovincial government to create therepresentative’s role.

In a statement released May 27,Hughes announced that the processhad worked.

“I am pleased to report that themediation process has resulted ina successful resolution of the issuerespecting the confidentiality of cab-inet documents that the represen-tative for children and youth mayreview,” he wrote. “Today (May 27),a senior representative will sign aprotocol that meets and respects theneeds of both parties. As a result, noamendments to the Representativefor Children and Youth Act will berequired.”

They say that everything old eventuallybecomes new again, and it’s tough to finda better example of this old chestnut thanthe recent resurgence of farmers’ markets.

Farmers have been hawking their waresat open markets for centuries. The traditionhas become trendy again in B.C., birthplaceof the global 100-mile diet movement, asmore and more consumers try to minimizetheir ecological footprint by buying locallygrown produce.

Lyn Hainstock, who runs the weeklymarket held from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. onSaturdays in the north parking lot at cityhall, says Burnaby has been particularlyreceptive.

“We’ve been very lucky becauseBurnaby has been so open and support-ive,” said Hainstock, who also runs mar-kets at Lonsdale Quay in North Vancouverand West Van’s Ambleside Park. “Quitehonestly, it’s not easy to get these marketsstarted. I think in a lot of municipalities,the council members don’t really go outand support farmers’ markets themselvesand don’t appreciate the value, but inBurnaby it has been fantastic.”

The Burnaby market will celebrate itsthird birthday on June 13 and was so suc-cessful last season that this year it openedsix weeks early.

“We normally open up in the middle

of June, but this year we got organized toopen market in early May,” she said. “Wehave quite a few farmers growing underglass, and of course there will be quite afew plants for sale this time of year.”

Farmers’ markets are more than just agood place to hang out, try new local foodsand connect with neighbours.

According to a recent report from theB.C. Ministry of Agriculture and Lands,they represent a value of more than $118million each year to local economies, mak-ing them an important link in the agricul-tural sector.

“B.C. grows and produces over 225agricultural commodities and thousandsof unique food products,” said minis-try communications director Liz Bicknell.“Farmers’ markets and agricultural fairsnot only benefit local economies, they alsoprovide people the opportunity to interactwith food producers, drawing communi-ties closer and educating citizens on wheretheir food comes from.”

Hainstock agrees that the social aspect isa part of the draw. While buying producesuch as fresh fruits and vegetables, organiccheese, free-range meat and freshly caughtfish is the main draw, many people arealso in the market for the social aspect.

“There’s a disconnection now in oursociety now with so much television andso much Internet, and I think this is a realchance for people to get together socially,”said Hainstock.

Burnaby’s favourite actorgets keys to his hometown

An actor and former Burnabyite whosemany memorable roles include playinga deputy mayor on the TV series SpinCity was given the keys to the city byactual Mayor Derek Corrigan last Fridayat the annual Michael J. Fox Theatre GolfTournament.

Fox, who is best known for his rolein the Back to the Future trilogy and forraising awareness of Parkinson’s disease,wasn’t the only one being honoured at thepopular fundraiser held at Riverway GolfCourse.

Riverway Place was officially renamedBill Fox Way in honour of the actor’s

father, who was a police officer and mem-ber of the Canadian Armed Forces.

The name change is the result of anauction held by the city at the charity tour-nament in 2007, when the actor won theright to rename a local street after bidding$10,000. The golf course is the only addresslisted on the street.

Fox, who turns 49 today, was bornin Edmonton, and his family moved toBurnaby in 1971. He attended high schoolhere before moving to Los Angeles whenhe was 18, but he still retains family tiesto the city.

The 613-seat Michael J. Fox Theatreis located at Burnaby South SecondarySchool and the B.C. Provincial School forthe Deaf.

TQ Construction Ltd., a Burnaby construc-tion and design company, won a best reno-vation award from the Greater VancouverHome Builders’ Association last week.

TQ was a four-time finalist in the GreaterVancouver area’s first RenOVATIONAwards. The company won in the best reno-vation between $100,000 and $249,000 cat-egory for the project, East Van Expression,completed with associate Bourne AgainInteriors.

The company, founded in 1988 by hus-band and wife Ralph and Helene Belisle,was listed three times in the whole houserenovation category and was also in the run-ning for Renovator of the Year.

“We’re happy, relieved and thrilled,”said Ralph Belisle, TQ president, when thecompany placed as a finalist.

Belisle is also past president of theCanadian Home Builders’ Association of

B.C. and the Greater Vancouver HomeBuilders’ Association. He is the current chairof the Renovation Council of B.C.

In the case of TQ Construction’s Burnabyrenovation project, the company converteda long, “box-car” floor plan into a beauti-fully integrated kitchen ideal for large partyentertaining, according to a press release.

According to Belisle, the GVHBAawards are even more competitive thanthe Canadian Home Builders’ Associationof B.C.’s Georgie Awards. It is only theRenOVATION Awards’ first year.

TQConstructionhaswon23silverGeorgieAwards and 10 gold Georgie Awards inthe past. The company was named BestRenovator in B.C. at both the 2004 and 2006Georgie Awards.

The company’s success is a result ofquality and a diverse employee workforce,Belisle said.

“There’s an expectation of quality anda need for contractors who can take onall aspects of design and construction,” he

explained.The company’s culture makes all the dif-

ference, Belisle said.“We maintain a sense of fun and work

that translates into a creative approach indesign and construction,” he said.

TQ has clients throughout Burnaby,Vancouver and North Vancouver.

“We have a long history of working inthose areas,” Belisle said.

The company has 24 permanent employ-ees, and about 30 in total during the summermonths.

This includes two in-house designers,an estimator, an administrative and designteam, and five construction crews.

Belisle and Helene — who takes care ofadministration, marketing and IT — startedthe company after returning from Europe inthe ‘80s.

Belisle advertised in a local paper as a“top quality” carpenter. People kept callingfor the top quality carpenter, and the com-pany name was born — TQ Construction.

Businesses should be waryof wearing too many hats

What goes around,comes around.

A hundredyears ago, we did ourshopping at a general storewhich carried everythingfrom nails and Aspirin tojeans and groceries.

Over the years, thisevolved into a retail sys-tem that became morespecialized along categorylines – you bought lightbulbs at a hardware store;Aspirin at the pharmacy;your jeans at a clothingstore, and most days youwent to the grocer.

Now, in somethingwhich is referred to in theretail industry as “channelblurring,” things are, insome ways, changing back.You can buy all of theseand more at any Wal-Mart,Real Canadian Superstoreor Costco. But you can alsoget most of them at yourlocal gas station.

Don’t get me wrong– we’ll always have spe-cialty stores, especially infashion, but they mighthave more than one spe-cialty. Many fruit marketsalso sell milk and tinnedgoods. Corner stores sellflowers and lottery tick-ets alongside staples likebread and milk.

Drugstores havealready evolved fromplaces where you get yourprescription filled to storeswhere you can buy toys,computers, cameras andother electronic gadgets– and even some basic gro-ceries. On the other hand,many grocery stores nowhave pharmacies and a bigelectronics department.

Canadian Tire haschanged a lot since 1925,when it was HamiltonTire and Garage Ltd. onToronto’s Yonge Street.While it still relies heavilyon its tires, tools and autorepair base, it moved intobasic domestics, tabletop,home decor, cookware,small appliances and gar-den centres some yearsago. But the latest storeshave added an expandedhealth and wellness assort-

ment including humidi-fiers, electric toothbrushesand candles, plus a selec-tion of plumbing, electron-ics and sporting equip-ment.

Home Depot has gonebeyond home repair andrenovations and is nowone of the biggest sellers ofmajor home appliances inNorth America.

Over the years, super-markets have increasedthe variety of goods theystock, adding delis, in-store bakeries, gardenplants and more – even

banking services. The big-ger stores often lease spaceto other retailers and ser-vices. Now you can go to aReal Canadian Superstore,for example, and haveyour hair cut, pay yourcar insurance, book a tripto Las Vegas, buy a pairof eyeglasses and evenrenegotiate your mortgageto help pay for it all with-out ever leaving the store.

There is a risk in all ofthis, however. Channelblurring, I believe, raisesthe danger of storesdeveloping a serious iden-

tity crisis – abandoningone’s core business andsqueezing many differentcategories under one roofhas inherent dangers.

Some marriages arelogical – coffee in a book-store has a synergy, forexample. The post officein many Shoppers DrugMarts works well. But I’ma believer in sticking towhat you are good at. Ifyou wear too many hats,some will fall off.

The days when climb-ing roses were forwalls and all others

were segregated in rosebeds are almost gone. Ingardens today, roses arefree to snuggle up withdiverse companions in avariety of different set-tings.

For instance, climbingand rambling roses canwind around obelisks,posts covered with wiremesh and teepees, providea prickly warning aroundvulnerable house windowsand double the value ofspace in small gardens byteaming up with floweringshrubs.

The main limiting fac-tors are sunshine andmoisture. Most rosesneed six hours sun daily,though there are a few that

bloom in semi-shade.One is the purplish-

blue Wedding Veil(Veilchenblau), a ramblerwith fewer blooms insemi-shade but a reputa-tion for enhanced flowercolour there.

Some others (such asthe climber New Dawn)can be started in semi-shade and will flowerabundantly once they haveescaped by climbing upinto the sunshine.

Climbers tend to havestiff canes and somedevelop significant trunksso they can stand alone.Also, climbers may flowerrepeatedly.

Ramblers have mal-leable canes, which makesthem much easier to windthrough things. But mostramblers are old roses, fra-grant, but only June-flow-ering. Some have prettyrose hips.

Since both kinds climb,I’ll be using the word“climbers.” But their dif-ferences need to be bornein mind when choosing arose for a specific purpose.

For instance, when

choosing a tree or shrub asa support for climbers, arambler will wind throughthe branches better and beeasier to reposition if nec-essary.

It’s also important tomatch the size of the treeor shrub and the rose.

The living supportsmust be strong enoughto hold the climber whenit’s mature, and the rosemustn’t grow so abun-dantly it smothers andweakens its support.

Roses are often grownup west or south walls,and this is a great, warm,

sheltered place for them.There’s likely to be a lot ofwatering at first becausesoil by walls can be dry,especially in summer.

But eventually the roseroots grow out into morehospitable places.

This also happens withother large wall plants,such as fig trees and pas-sion vines.

Painting walls that hostroses can be a challenge,even if they’re on detach-able trellises because old,woody rose trunks arestiff.

But I’ve been told some

gardeners prune themback to the ground andthey do reshoot. I haven’ttried it.

But with grafted roses(and many other graftedplants), cutting back to theground is likely to triggerrootstock suckers. Own-root roses are great, if youcan get them. It’s slow,but possible, to grow yourown from cuttings.

Rose arches can involveheavy timbers, lattice-workor (as I once saw on aMission acreage) branchescut from the wild and bentwhile they’re still green.

Concrete rebar fastenedto the base of the twiggywood makes a solid postthat makes detachmenteasy when you need toredo the top work.

One Burnaby gardenerfinds stucco wire so sturdyshe has made free-stand-ing arches for roses andclematis connected into theground by short posts.

Another effective use iswhen climbing roses wrapup and over a small porch.

The staff and stu-dents at Burnaby’sWhytecliff Agile

Learning Centre had some-thing to celebrate on May18 – nine students gradu-ated from the independentschool.

Whytecliff isn’t yourtypical school, and thesekids are not your typicalstudents. The school takesin kids who are strugglingin the mainstream schoolsystem for a variety of rea-sons. They could have fetalalcohol syndrome, drugaddictions or experiencedtrauma and abuse, forexample.

Jocelyn Macdougallworks with the FocusFoundation of B.C., whichruns the school. She saidthe graduation is par-ticularly special because

it is public recognitionof students’ accomplish-ment from the EducationMinistry, friends, family,community and peers.It’s recognition “that theyhave reached this notablerite of passage againstmany odds,” she said.

“This means manythings to the youth: recog-nition that they are capableand talented people whocan make a positive con-tribution to their com-munities and society as awhole,” she added.

“The high school gradu-

ation ceremony …is reallya celebration of the trans-formation of these youthhave experienced and ofthe fact that there is hopefor a brighter future forthese and all B.C’s trou-bled youth,” Macdougallsaid.

Happy birthdayBurnaby Mountain

Linda DeMeulemeester is workingmore literary magic.

The Burnaby author has justmarked the release of the fourth novelin her award-winning Grim Hill seriesfor young readers.

Grim Hill: The Family Secret, has justbeen released by Lobster Press.

It’s the latest in the series that beganin the spring of 2007, when The Secretof Grim Hill was published.

That novel, aimed at nine- to 12-year-olds and described as “HarryPotter meets Buffy the VampireSlayer,” was DeMeulemeester’s firstfor young readers.

It became a quick success, beingnamed one of the top 10 Great Booksof the Year by the Canadian Toy

Testing Council, earning readers’choice award nominations in B.C.,Saskatchewan and Atlantic Canadaand earning Ontario’s Silver BirchReaders’ Choice Award in 2008.

The Grim Hill series followsthe adventures of teen protagonistCat Peters and her adventures atDarkmont High, weaving in Celticlegends, magic and ancient traditions.

“Cat doesn’t have it easy, but shedoesn’t give up,” De Meulemeesternotes in a press release. “She makesmistakes and isn’t one bit perfect, butshe does try and do something abouther mistakes. I think there’s somethingabout that we can all identify with.”

DeMeulemeester says she feels aparticularly strong connection with

the tween readers who are gravitatingtowards her Grim Hill novels.

“I think of the books I felt the mostpassionate about when I was 10 or11, and that influences my writingtoday,” she says. “That was the agewhen reading opened up whole newworlds of imagination for me, as wellas a lifelong appreciation of all thingsliterary. To write for this age group isa complete delight, and to know thatthey really like the books is so exciting– it’s like going full circle and givingback something.”

DeMeulemeester was recent-ly introduced to even more youngreaders through the 2010 Red CedarAwards – B.C.’s Young Readers’Choice program.

Even with 21-monthold daughter Elenirunning around,

Jenny Siormanolakisis keeping RomanaRestaurant in the heartsand minds of Burnaby resi-dents.

The 37-year-old res-taurant has been at 4660Hastings St., in the heartof the Heights, since 1973,and the second-generationdaughter of original own-ers Poppy and Eugene isdoing her best to connectwith customers via socialmedia.

“We’ve found thatsetting up Twitter andFacebook accounts has real-ly increased our profile,”said Jenny. “It’s a chancefor us to tell customersabout ourselves, and it’shelped increase our busi-

ness.”No better evidence of

this fact is the April 9 partythat Romana’s held to cel-ebrate its birthday.

Offering $3 spaghettiwith meat sauce and $3.85small classic pizza – andpromoted mainly throughsocial media – Romana’shad hour-long lineups allnight.

“What a gong show thatwas,” said Jenny’s sisterNora, mother of 18-month-old Aria. “It was unbeliev-able how many peopleshowed up, and it wasgreat to know we’re stillso respected in the com-munity.”

Jenny and Nora arequite familiar with thelong working hours of run-ning a restaurant, havingliterally grown up in theMediterranean-style busi-ness. Now mothers them-selves, they still work atthe restaurant between thetime they’re taking care oftheir daughters.

“Eleni is a natural here,”said Jenny. “When shecomes in with me, she’s at

the front, greeting custom-ers.”

Eleni’s cousin Aria isa little more shy, so thatmeans Nora doesn’t bringher into Romana’s for herweekend shifts.

“She’s very good whenshe’s with Eleni, but she’svery shy by herself,” saidNora. “It’s easier if I leaveher home, so that means Iusually only work week-ends.”

The close-knit familyhas weathered the storm ofan economic downturn thathit the hospitality industryhard.

“I think our secret is,as a small business, we tryharder to please each andevery customer who comesin the door,” said Poppy.“We’ve found that peopleare willing to support smallbusiness if they feel you’retaking good care of them.”

Poppy is so sure of thisthat in Jenny’s tweets aboutthe business, she asks newcustomers to introducethemselves to Poppy thefirst time they come in.

And invariably, they fall in love withthe matriarch of the family.

“I don’t think I’ve forgotten a face in 37years,” said Poppy.

Doing much of the work in the kitchenis Eugene, who still takes pride in everypizza and every pasta he makes.

“Good, fresh ingredients and big por-tions,” said Eugene. “We make good qual-ity food each and every time.”

Eugene said that while many of theircustomers come in for a nicesit-down meal, their pizzadeliveries in the Heights areahave never been busier.

On my most recent visitto Romana’s, I sat downwith the family and triedtheir favourite dishes.

Starting with the pitabread ($5.50) served withtzatziki, homous, noulis(spicy feta) and melizano(garlic eggplant) dip, I wastransported back to theSiormanolakis’ Greek homeland. Of specialnote is the homemade tzatziki sauce that isso good that Jenny says her daughter eatsit by the bowl.

For my main, I went with Eugene’sfavourite, the chicken Thessaloniki ($19),which features tender, marinated chickenbreast topped with steamed spinach, roast-ed vegetable sauce, feta and mozzarellacheese. What makes this dish so exquisiteis that the spinach is covered by the cheese,

meaning you don’t know how “healthy”this dish is for you until you take your firstbite. And who knew that a chicken breast– which is a pretty fine cut of meat to startwith – could get better with some greensand some cheese?

For my second main – who needs anappetizer or dessert? – I went with Poppy’sfavourite, the appropriately namedMama’s Pizza ($14.50 for a small, to $21.50for a large), which has pepperoni, mush-rooms, salami, green peppers and olives.

What sets Romana’spizza apart from chain pizzais the homemade sauce – it’sa family recipe that Eugeneand Poppy will keep tothemselves – and the facteach pizza is made freshwhen ordered.

The pizza was as perfectas you would expect. Thecrust was hefty enough tosupport the weight of all themeat and vegetable toppingsbut still crispy enough to be

crunchy on first bite. I loved Mama’s pizzaso much that I might have to change frommy usual order of the Super pizza, whichhas ham, onions and salami.

Romana Restaurant is located at 4660Hastings St. For reservations, call 604-298-7252. Romana’s is open from 11:30 a.m. to1:30 p.m. For lunch on weekdays, from 5to 10 p.m. Monday to Saturday for dinner,and for special catering parties, by appoint-ment, on some holidays and Sundays.

Last week, approxi-mately 80 of my highschool classmates

came together for a reunionat Anducci’s. Decades (I’lllet you guess how many)have passed since I gradu-ated from Burnaby North,yet memories of those daysseem as fresh as if theyhappened last month. Ofcourse, they were recentlyrefreshed by my oldestson’s grad dinner anddance a few weeks ago.

Burnaby North hadalways been a big school.The graduating class wastoo large for everyone toknow everyone else, andless than 20 per cent wasable to attend this reunion,yet I expected that I wouldrecognize most faces. I wasthe editor of all my highschool yearbooks fromgrades 9 to 12. I still havevivid memories of the funI had with my friends,including Stew, Stan, Peterand Ron, staying at schoolhours after classes ended,developing photos, design-ing layouts and writing. Itkept us from getting intotrouble.

My summers wereeven preoccupied with theplanning of the next year’sbook. Each production wasa 365-day-a-year job, so weobjected to people callingthem annuals as if theywere thrown together oncea year. In fact, I caughtmyself last week correctinga classmate who referred toour yearbook as the annual,

as if it really makes a differ-ence now.

I therefore saw everyphoto that did or didn’tmake it to publication, andI realized the responsibilitywe had in creating the timecapsule for our teachersand classmates. Each year-book would form a core oftheir memories.

At Anducci’s, a slideshow of old yearbook pho-tos was projected above thebar, and we each wore anametag with our graduat-ing photo. Over the years,those candid snapshots,group photos, team pic-tures and portraits havebecome icons that may ormay not have reflected thereality of the moment. Trueor false, they solidified corememories now challengedwhen we meet again yearslater.

It is an odd thing thesedays to be in a room fullof people the same age.When you’re fresh outof school, the rest of theworld is older, but whenyou pass the median age ofthe population, the rest ofthe world seems younger– unless you hang outat hospitals and nursinghomes.

Though we all shouldhave been about the sameage, many of the faces werehardly recognizable. Somelooked as young as theirearly 30s; some could bein their 50s. Few lookedlike the 17- or 18-year-oldsdepicted on their nametags.

Thank goodness ournames were in large print.Most of us would needreading glasses. Even so,we couldn’t believe oureyes, matching nametagsto faces. So many factorscan alter our apparent

age: the effects of easy orhard times, the acceleratedaging caused by smok-ing and hard drugs, thestress of illness and chronichealth conditions and,of course, genetics. Yetwe shouldn’t judge oneanother by appearances;that’s what everyone did inhigh school. We’re all a lotolder and deeper than that.Right?

In my next column:what I learned about myclassmates and myself atmy reunion.

BC Lions give back to the communityAs the BC Lions get set to tackle another season at

this year’s training camp in Kamloops, many playershave wrapped up another round of community and schoolappearances.These off-season endeavours are a big part of the Lions’community relations program, and players and staff loghundreds of hours each year speaking to students, makingspecial appearances and spreading positive messages toyoung people.Lions centre and Lower Mainland native Dean Valli saysparticipating in these programs can be as fulfilling as puttingpoints on the board at a game.“I’ve been involved with several of the club’s communityprograms for a few years now and it’s a great feeling toknow you’re setting a positive example for kids while havingfun at the same time!”Some of the Lions programs include:

Lions in the HouseThe Lions in the House program is designed specifically forstudents in grades 8 to 12 and emphasizes the importanceof positive life skills development for students and theirschools.This year, Lions defensive assistant Barron Miles andcentre Angus Reid traveled to secondary schools andengaged students in an interactive assembly with physicalactivity and motivational speeches on fitness and nutrition,bullying, continuing education, and maintaining a positiveattitude. In all, Lions visited 30 schools across the LowerMainland, speaking to more than 3,000 students as partof the program.

Lions PrideThis new addition to the BC Lions school program waslaunched this year.In partnership with the Ministry of Public Safety andSolicitor General, the BC Lions are inspiring youth to beactive, make positive choices and excel. Lions Prideis designed for youth in grades 8 to 12 and combinesschool visits with the creation of a flag football program.

BC Lions Terasen Gas Energy ChampionsThis program is designed specifically for children in

kindergarten through Grade 7, emphasizing the importanceof environmental responsibility and being an “EnergyChampion.”In 2010, the BC Lions Terasen Gas Energy Championsprogram has visited 75 elementary schools throughoutthe Lower Mainland, Vancouver Island, the Interior andnorthern B.C.

Read, Write & RoarThe 2010 season marks the ninth year of this BC Lions’literacy program in partnership with Literacy BC, theVancouver Public Library, the Vancouver School Board andparticipating elementary schools.The program reached 15 school districts and morethan 25,000 elementary school students, stressing theimportance of literacy through a fun and captivatingjournal.

Courage for KidsIn 2009, the BC Lions continued their partnership withUnited Way of the Lower Mainland in support of thisprogram.More than 6,000 children were given the opportunity toattend a BC Lions home game during the season thanksto the generosity of Courage For Kids sponsors and theUnited Way of the Lower Mainland.

Every Yard CountsIn 2010, the BC Lions will continue to partner with BCChildren’s Hospital for the Every Yard Counts program. Thisinitiative provides an opportunity for children to attend a BCLions home game, allowing them to get away from theirtreatment schedules and the everyday battles they fight.While the children get an opportunity to experience theexcitement and emotion of a CFL game, they also havea chance to meet some of the BC Lions players. Theinteractions have far-reaching effects by creating feelings ofhope and happiness, making it an enjoyable and rewardingprogram for everyone involved.

For more information on any of these BC Lions programs,please contact the Lions’ director of community relations,Jamie Taras, at [email protected].

MOTORING

Dear Tom and Ray:Two weeks ago while trav-

elling down a city street, mycar, a Volvo S80, suddenlyswerved and almost flew intoa lamppost. A man drivingbehind me said he saw theright front wheel come off justbefore the car swerved. If hehad not seen the wheel fall off,I would not have known whathad happened. My insurancehas covered everything, asthe car was a total loss, butneither the insurance companynor the Volvo shop where itwas towed could give anyexplanation for this accident.Have you any ideas or expla-nations? Thank you.

– JudyRAY: I can’t say for surewhat happened, Judy,but my guess is that yourwheel bolts broke off.

TOM: Why did it break?We don’t know. A manu-facturing defect? Age?I would say that mostlikely the cause is previousover-tightening. If a shopisn’t careful to measureits torque, it easily canover-tighten a bolt, whichstretches it, and that causesthe metal to fatigue andweaken. And the moretimes you over-torque it– putting it on and taking itoff – the weaker the metalgets.RAY: Whenever we havemore than one wheel boltbreak on a car, we replaceall 20 of them. We don’teven give the customer achoice. We figure if two ofthem were over-tightenedand are ready to break,they probably all wereover-tightened and areready to break.TOM: And in your situa-tion, you might have hadone that broke withoutyour knowing it. Then youhad four doing the job offive.RAY: That increased thestress on the remainingfour, and soon another one

gave way. Then you hadthree doing the job of five.TOM: And you neverwould notice this until thelast bolt or two can’t holdon anymore, and the wheelfalls off.RAY: This is somethingthat you hope your regularrepair shop would catchin advance when it doesthings like inspect yourbrakes and rotate yourtires. But that didn’t hap-pen in your case. Maybeyour shop doesn’t subscribeto our bolt-replacementtheory? Maybe you haven’tbeen in for service regularlyenough? Maybe they’re theones doing the over-tight-ening? Or maybe it wasjust bad luck and the wholeepisode took place betweenservice visits?TOM: In any case, that’sour guess as to what hap-pened. And we’re just gladyou didn’t get hurt.

Lion queensmake meetmemories

The Burnaby MountainLions girls’ team finishedjust shy of a top-10 aggre-gate finish at the B.C. highschool track and field cham-pionships but that didn’tdampen their enthusiasm.

The four-memberMountain relay team, ofanchor Whitney Rowe,N a t a s h aK i a n i p o u r ,C o u r t n e yBridge andlead-off runnerAnika Vassell,was all smilesfollowing asixth-place fin-ish in the wom-en’s 4x100-metre relay tostart off thefinal day of rac-ingatSwangardS t a d i u mSaturday.

The finish earned theBurnaby school three pointstowards the final teamaggregate, and although theLions finished two pointsshy of Stelly’s and LordTweedsmuir, who tied forninth place with 24 pointsapiece, the girls couldn’thave been happier.

The Lions sprinted to apersonal best in the Fridayheats and then loweredthat mark with a 51.33 timein Saturday’s final.

But the girls werenot through. Rowe andKianipour surprised them-selves in the 100m final,finishing second and third,respectively, behind themeet’s most outstandingfemale performer, Shai-anne Davis of McRoberts,who won gold in both the100 and 200m.

Not since sprinter BillieWhite-Gibson won a first-ever provincial gold medalfor Mountain in the sprintin 2005 had another Lionathlete earned a top-threemedal.

Rowe blazed into therunner-up position in atime of 12.38 seconds,while Kianipour edged outEsinam Ayesu-Attah ofHeritage Woods in a photofinish for third with a per-sonal best time of 12.61.

“I wasn’t into track

until I went to the BurnabyStriders. Ever since that,it has been a passion forme,” said the Grade 12Kianipour after the medalceremony.

In her wildest dreams,Kianipour had thought offinishing just behind Davisand her Mountain team-mate in the sprint.

“But then I thought itwouldn’t happen,” she

said. “I couldn’tbelieve it. Ithought I’dcome fourth orfifth. It is myfirst medal andwith Whitneycoming second,too, this is per-fect.”

Rowe alsoadded a sev-enth-place fin-ish in the girls’200m, garner-ing 10 indi-

vidual points for Mountainand a whole bunch of per-sonal satisfaction.

“It’s the last race of mylife at provincials,” saidRowe after the 200m. “I’mproud, really, really proudof myself, really, reallyproud. I’ve come a longway from last year.”

At that 2009 provincialmeet, Rowe was the lastrunner to miss the finaleight in the sprint, placingninth overall, less than one-tenth of a second behindthe final qualifier in theheats.

But this was a new yearof opportunity, said Rowe.

“It’s a small thing forsome people, but it defi-nitely showed all my hardwork,” Rowe said. “Ourschool isn’t really knownfor track and field, so weare very proud of ouraccomplishments.”

Kevin Lin of BurnabyCentral just missed a medalin the boys’ high jump,moving up from ninth in2009 to fourth spot with aleap of 1.85m, just belowhis PB height of 1.90m.

With one year of eligibil-ity remaining the Grade 11Lin is hoping to push twometres before he graduatesin 2011.

The agony of defeat

Jason Lang/burnaby now

Heartbreaking: Scott Secco of Oak Bay, foreground, was leading by a large margin in the boys’ 2,000-metresteeplechase when the unthinkable happened. With just 50m to go, he fell head-over-heels on the final jump,struggled to get up and then desperately tried to keep his lead, with Elgin Park’s Jake Bruchet, jumping, andJustin Kent of Kwantlen Park, on his heels. Bruchet went on to win the race, Secco finished in third. See thewhole story in pictures in the Burnaby NOW photo gallery on the web.

Junior A Lakers shoot downSaints in Sunday showdown

The Burnaby Lakers stopped afour-game losing slide in the B.C.Junior Lacrosse League with an 8-5win over the Port Coquitlam Saintsat home Sunday.

Left-side sniper Riley Loewentallied his second consecutive hattrick in as many games since return-ing from Limestone College, scoringfour times to lead Burnaby to itssixth win of the season.

“It’s tough coming back fromfield (lacrosse) with those big nets,but I think this game I hit the netand they started going in,” saidLoewen, who scored 28 goals inhis freshman season at the NCAADivision II South Carolina school.“It’s good to get that first win.”

Good too in order to keep pacewith the leaders New Westminster,Coquitlam and Victoria, all tied with17 points, and Nanaimo just a pointahead in fourth with 14.

The junior A Lakers started well,scoring just their seventh goal on thepower play from Jaxson Lee in theopening five minutes of play at theBill Copeland Sports Centre.

Seconds later Josh Simons putone past a well-worked Mike Lowewith a nifty high/low fake at theright crease.

Loewen then potted his first ofthe game, also on the extra man,

after the Lakers had sounded thealarm bell on the Saints, clangingthree well-taken shots off the iron.

The first period ended withBurnaby up 3-1.

“We’re trying, even five-on-five,to get the ball swingingside to side,” Loewensaid, adding the backand front ends are get-ting better coordinatedand helping the transi-tion game by getting offthe bench quicker.

Mackenzie Davis andLoewen with his sec-ond of two in the periodput the home side up6-2 after the first 40 min-utes.

Davis and Loewenhad the Lakers up 8-3 at one pointof the final frame before Poco pulledits goalie for an extra man and pot-ted a pair of late goals.

Brodie MacDonald made 30 stopsin the Burnaby nets, while Lowe waspelted with 61 shots in the Poco nets,making 53 saves, including 23 in themiddle frame.

Davis finished with two goals andtwo assists. Chase Clark chipped inwith four helpers.

The return of Loewen and JacksonDecker, on the right side, shouldalso give the meager Laker powerplay a much-needed jolt.

Burnaby has just eight tallies

on the extra man in its first dozengames, far below the next lowestteam, the Delta Islanders, with 23 inas many games.

With goal scoring a high prior-ity on Burnaby’s to-do list, Loewen

believes the Lakers mustcontinue to stay thecourse.

“Right now, it’s tough.We’re getting 60 shots.We got to keep shoot-ing, there’s not much wecan do,” Loewen said.“Some guys are snake-bitten right now, we justkeep trying to encouragethe guys to keep shoot-ing.”

And that will becomeimportant as Burnaby

enters a more challenging segmentof the schedule that includes threegames against the unbeaten NewWestminster Salmonbellies in itsnext five fixtures.

“We want to be in the top three.That’s where we want to finish. Wejust have to come out hard and playtough,” Loewen added.

BurnabyplayedNewWestminsterTuesday (after NOW deadlines).The two teams are back in BurnabySunday, June 13 at the Copelandcentre. The game is scheduled for7 p.m.

The Lakers are also in Victoria onSaturday.
