Life saver: Jane Thomas, Fraser Health’s first fecal transplant recipient (shown here in her Burnaby home in February2011), credits the pioneering medical procedure for saving her life after a C. difficile infection left her near death’s doorfour years ago.

Fecal transplant saved her

A Burnaby senior who credits afecal transplant for saving her life fouryears ago is dismayed the Fraser HealthAuthority has suspended a pilot pro-gram that would have seen the proce-dure made available to others.

Jane Thomas felt she had nothingleft to lose when she agreed to becomeFraser Health’s first recipient of a fecaltransplant in 2010.

Infected with anti-biotic-resistantClostridium difficile (C. difficile) atBurnaby Hospital two years earlier,when she was being treated for a bowelobstruction, Thomas had been plaguedwith infectious diarrhea and lost morethan 20 pounds.

“They let me out, and there was noth-ing more they could do,” she told theNOW Tuesday, “and then I had to goback again because the drugs weren’thelping. I was sick all the time.”

Afraid her patient would die,Thomas’s doctor, Jeanne Keegan-Henry,set out to perform Fraser Health’s firstfecal transplant.

She bought a blender from a drugstore, labelled it “Don’t Use For Food,”blended up a mix of saline and donorfeces provided by Thomas’s daughter,and implanted the solution via a colo-noscopy.

The strange treatment is understoodto work by balancing out-of-control,toxin-producing C. difficile bacteria with“good” bacteria from healthy donor

A seismic shift could be in the works forcity politics in Burnaby.

The NOW has learned a new coalitionhas formed to take on the Burnaby Citizens’Association juggernaut in November’s civicelections.

Calling itself the Burnaby First Coalition,the new entity is a diverse alliance of formerGreen, Burnaby Parents’ Voice and TEAMBurnaby faithful, as well as politicos fromother levels of government.

“I would say there’s provincial Liberals,there’s probably federal Liberals and theremight even be another party or two in there,but it’s not about politics,” said Burnaby FirstCoalition Society president Daren Hancott,himself a hopeful for the Conservative nomi-nation in the federal riding of Burnaby North-Seymour. “It’s about representation of the city.I think this group will better represent the citythan the current group, let’s put it that way.”

Besides Hancott, the new coalition’s boardincludes former independent council candi-date Nick Kvenich, former Green provincialand municipal candidate Carrie McLaren, for-mer Burnaby Parents’ Voice spokespersonHeather Leung and local builder-developerShakila Jeyachandran.

“It’s a very interesting group,” Hancottsaid with a laugh. “There’s a lot of politicsinvolved, there’s a lot of different levels ofpolitics and there’s a lot of interesting peoplewith no political experience.”

The group has been meeting since lastAugust and is putting the finishing touch-es on its council platform after recently

magine you had two uncles, and one ofyour uncles was a police officer and theother was a soldier in the British army.Now imagine they both wanted you tofollow in their footsteps – what would

you do?Well, that was the exact situation John

Clune found himself in several years ago,but instead of picking sides, the 24-year-olddecided to break from tradition and become afirefighter.

Clune applied to the Burnaby FireDepartment recruitment program in August2012 after attending fire school in Texas.Clune also completed several courses withWorkSafeBC and the Justice Institute of B.C.and earned a diploma in marketing fromBCIT.

When the Burnaby Fire Departmentapproved his application, Clune spent nearlya year participating in ride-alongs and inter-views with the expectation that he would oneday become a firefighter.

So, when Clune was put on a waitlist in2013, he was worried he hadn’t made it. Luckyfor him, the department was so impressedwith Clune and the others waitlisted that thefire trainers decided to offer them a secondchance.

About 11 people were invited back to the

department to participate in a mini-recruit-ment session and of that group, seven werehired – Clune was one of them.

In January, Clune and six other recruitsbegan the nine-week recruit training under theguidance of Cpt. Dave Samson and Lt. DarcyO’Riordan.

The NOW recently caught up with Clune tochat about the recruitment process and what ittook to become a Burnaby firefighter.

Cayley Dobie:Why firefighting?

John Clune: Mydad was on a soccerteam surrounded byfirefighters and I wasdrawn to their person-alities, and I had coaches throughout my entire soc-cer youth that were all firefighters. They were alljust awesome guys, and I idolized them and wantedto be like them.

CD: Describe your application experience.JC: Burnaby’s process is super in-depth. We put

in the application and then there is a panel inter-view, in there was a representative from (humanresources), one of the assistant chiefs and then oneof the presidents of the union. So, they interviewedus first and when we passed through that, they

had two orientation days to kind of introduce usto how Burnaby does things as far as skills andstuff. If we passed through that, we had to do fourdifferent ride-along shifts throughout February2013, and if we passed through that we had to do aphysical test and passing through that was a chief’sinterview. So all of us did all of that and then wegot shortlisted and then they said, ‘OK, we’ll do aminiature hiring process in September 2013,’ andI think there was about 11 of us on that list, and

in October of 2013 theseven of us found outwe got hired.

CD: Did you onlyapply in Burnaby?

JC: I did until I gotshortlisted. Once I got

shortlisted, for me it meant more to be a Burnabyfirefighter than anywhere else.

When you’re starting to try out, obviouslyyou’re applying to all cities because you want tobe a firefighter. So looking and comparing it, noteverybody does it this way, so it was just anotherone of those signs that I’m really in the right spot.Because if they care about who they hire this much,you know they’re hiring the right people.

Metro Vancouver is pointing to the suc-cess of its longstanding Burnaby incinera-tor in its continued attempts to sway thesupport of Lower Mainland municipalitiesfor another facility, to be built at one ofthree potential sites in B.C.

The group stressed the Burnaby facili-ty’s economic and environmental stridesat a stakeholders’ meeting on Wednesday,held at the Hilton Vancouver Metrotown.

“Our existing waste energy facility inBurnaby, which has been operating for 25years, is the least-cost asset in the MetroVancouver system,” said Paul Henderson,general manager of solid waste serviceswith Metro Vancouver, noting that anincinerator would be greener than sendingwaste to landfills.

But outside, a handful of picketers andopponents voiced their resistance to theproject, citing the estimated cost of $517million to taxpayers and public healthrisks of burning garbage.

“They’re trying to say that by burningthe waste, we’re going to get rid of land-fills altogether, but they’re just condensingthe toxins into ash which then has to beburied,” said Jamie Kaminski, director ofZero Waste Canada, adding that chemicalsfrom ash can leach into soil and bodies of

water.“We believe that it competes directly

with recycling, reuse and other more real-istic green initiatives. It’s not coming upwith a solution, it’s just coming up with abig price hike for the province.”

However, Henderson told reportersthat 20 per cent of the material that goesthrough the Burnaby waste-to-energy facil-ity becomes ash, which is safely managedthrough landfills in Delta and Alberta.

“All of that ash has been concluded tobe suitable for management as municipalsolid waste and non-hazardous,” he said.

The proposed locations for the waste-to-energy facility are Delta, Nanaimo andPort Mellon on the Sunshine Coast, butcouncillors from surrounding municipali-ties say the emissions from the Burnabysite are already affecting the environmentsin their cities.

Abbotsford Coun. Patricia Ross saidozone levels are increasing in the FraserValley, mainly due to pollution from bor-dering cities, and that the actual severityof the emissions is far greater than whatMetro Vancouver has estimated.

“I think they ought to be respectful ofour wishes and not build this,” she said.“I think the province needs to step innow, kill this thing right away before thetaxpayer’s stuck with a multimillion-dol-lar bill.”

Speaking out: Protesters rally outside the Hilton Vancouver Metrotown onWednesday to oppose Metro Vancouver’s plans for a second B.C. incinerator. Oneincinerator is currently operating in Burnaby.

In the climax of the film ToyStory 3, as Woody, Buzz, Jessie

and the rest of Andy’s toys areabout to be incinerated in a localgarbage dump, a miracle hap-pens. Just in the nick of time, ametal claw drops from the sky,picks up the toys and depositsthem safely awayfrom a fiery doom.

Taxpayers shouldbe hoping and pray-ing for a similar claw to pluckus out of the half-a-billion dollarwaste incinerator plan MetroVancouver has concocted. Theonly way this incinerator doesn’tbecome a boondoggle for Metrotaxpayers is if B.C. Hydro rate-payers drastically overpay topurchase the electricity the incin-erator will create.

At a Metro waste commit-tee meeting in late April, anupdated incinerator businessplan was presented to variousregional mayors and councillors.In it, Metro cut the projected sizeof the incinerator but still hikedthe price tag. What was onceexpected to be a $480-millionproject handling 500,000 tonnesof trash a year is now a $517-million project dealing with only370,000 tonnes.

And that’s before either abuilder or site has been selected– one suspects this cost will gonowhere but up.

But it is Metro’s hope thatB.C. Hydro will overpay for theenergy the incinerator will pro-duce that is most galling. Why

should Hydro ratepayers be onthe hook to save Metro’s plan?Currently, the spot price for elec-tricity has been hovering around$55/MWh (megawatt hour).This is the price paid whenpurchasing power from outsidesources. For example, if B.C.

Hydro needed to pur-chase some electricitygenerated by a naturalgas power plant owned

by a private company, $55/MWh is all they would normallypay to get that electricity.

However, in order to makethe numbers work for the Metroincinerator, they’re assum-ing Hydro will be willing topay them $100/MWh – nearlydouble what the market price forelectricity is!

The Ontario government hasset a rate of $80/MWh for theenergy created at an incineratorin Durham. That’s 20 per centless than what Metro hopesto gouge out of Hydro – andOntario is hardly known formaking wise fiscal decisions inits operations.

B.C. Hydro’s IntegratedResource Plan sets LowerMainland waste-to-energy pricesat $85/MWh, 15 per cent lessthan Metro’s projection and wellover the market price. The Metrobusiness case acknowledges thisnumber but doesn’t use it. It ishighly unlikely that Metro willget $100/MWh from B.C. Hydro.

Don’t buy this latest Fraser Institute studyDon’t listen to what public health

officials and doctors have been warningfor years. The Fraser Institute knowsbetter.

The venerable think tank has pro-duced a study that finds thereis no obesity epidemic inCanada (and even if there is,government shouldn’t attemptto do anything about it). This, after weonly just stopped laughing at their asser-tion that raising a child only costs $3,000

per year, if you don’t factor in thingslike housing costs or child care.

Their studies typically start with aconclusion and then cherry pick stats tosupport it, which is exactly what medical

professionals are saying aboutthis latest one.

And, like all Fraser Institutestudies, this one is an inroad

for them to espouse policy. In this case,they target tax hikes on sugary and fattyfoods, food bans, vending machine bans,

and (gasp!) menu and food labellinginitiatives. Because what’s really hurtingthe economy right now is a lack of sugarin high school kids’ diets and peoplehaving the right to know what’s in thefood they buy.

The free market being the deity intheir monotheistic religion, they oftenequate something being profitable withthat same thing being good or right.

If the Fraser Institute had beenaround 50 years ago, we suspect they

would have been backing tobacco com-panies.

The Fraser Institute, in its miserlyways, is guilty of being penny-wise andpound foolish.

Government intervention to encour-age healthy living means less strain onthe health-care system – the granddaddyof all taxpayer-funded spending. Otherthan the cockpit of a fighter jet, thereisn’t a place more expensive for taxpay-ers than a hospital bed.

Let workers get on with their jobsDear Editor:

Re: Fire chief questions wait times, BurnabyNOW, April 23.

Life-and-death emergencies are a statistical rar-ity, but they must come first.

The ambulance incidents cited are not the mostcommon, but that is precisely what an ambulanceis about – prevention of death or permanent dam-age in extreme cases. The ambulance service is theservice devoted entirely to the care of people. Thismust be a high priority.

It is good to see both the firefighters and thecouncillors support the ambulance service. The fire-fighters have the job of defending both people andproperty but are now given the loathsome choice

– help the person, or move on to the fire, simplybecause someone made the ambulance late.

The province compounds the error by suggest-ing that the firefighters now downgrade their ownresponse times. It is clear who has the right priori-ties.

Let the firefighters and the ambulance workersboth concentrate on their jobs, and stop playingthem off against each other.

Burnaby NOW, April 18), left out a fewmore things, such as having to cope withteachers who do not understand the differ-ence between “underfunding” and “pru-dent budgeting” (as was demonstrated onthe same pages), and a national/provin-cial debt, not as bad as in most developedcountries, but still a formidable burden weshamefully accumulated on our watch andleft for Joey to deal with.

Also, in fairness to our generation, Joeymay want to check how many of her class-mates could express themselves in equallypowerful sentences.

With this out of the way, here is thegood news: Joey is looking at a very brightfuture!

Shame on B.C. governmentDear Editor:

Re: It’s time to help the vulnerable,Opinion, by Keith Baldrey, Burnaby NOW,April 16.

So the government won’t let singleparents keep their children’s maintenancemoney, and they won’t hike welfare rates– yet millions go out to help other coun-tries, which has nothing to do with ourchildren.

Their future and their lives depend onus.

Christy Clark has abused every singleparent for years, and no one seems to careenough to stop her.

This is the lowest form of persecutionand mental abuse directed to the ones whoshould be getting the money, and that isthe children.

Pretty bad when you rob a child ofits birthright by an adult who constantlyrejects them and humiliates the parentwhose only crime was to have childrenthat she ended up supporting on her own.

Raise the welfare now.Sandy Chartier, Burnaby

THE BURNABYNOW STORY: City of Burnaby may move in on un-sightly property – April 28Facebook I Shairose Lila: We live a block away from this property. There used tobe an empty trailer there and unfortunately 2 people perished there from possiblecarbon monoxide exposure. The empty trailer was left on the property and it’s pre-sumed that a squatter moved in and there have been multiple fires there.The abandoned building then caught on fire a few month ago and remains in thestate as shown in the picture. People continue to dump their garbage and used fur-niture there. Not only is it an eyesore and reflects negatively on the neighborhood,what about the environmental hazard it posses with contaminants leaching intothe ground and nearby ditch water. There is a salmon spawning reserve nearby thatmay be affected too.I hope Burnaby city council votes to have the remaining structure demolished andclean up this abandoned property.

If they do, Hydro hasstupidly overpaid forelectricity, and ratepayersshould be up in arms.

The business plan alsorelies on the provincialgovernment exempting theincinerator from the car-bon tax. But why shouldthe public, industry andevery other governmentagency pay this tax whileMetro wriggles off thehook?

At least half of whatwill be burned in the incin-erator will be plastic – howcan those emissions beexempted from the carbontax?

Yet there is no mentionof the carbon tax in theMetro business case.

It’s time for MetroVancouver to abandon thisplan.

It’s too expensive, it’stoo risky, and its businesscase looks to over-promise

and under-deliver.As Metro taxpayers slip

closer and closer to thefiery furnace of this incin-erator, we can only hopea claw – in the form ofMetro politicians overturn-ing this plan – will dropfrom the sky and pluck usout of this mess.

Otherwise, we’ll all getburned.

feces.As far as Thomas is con-

cerned, the procedure savedher life.

Within a month, she wasfeeling better, and today, atage 89, she is still active andenjoying time with her sixgrandchildren.

“I’ve done well so far, andthat you can tell them,” shesaid.

Keegan-Henry, however,was barred from performingthe procedure again becausethe treatment was consideredexperimental.

The local doctor – quotedin the latest edition of FraserHealth’s In-Focus magazine –admits to having been “pretty

publicly hostile” toward thehealth authority at the time.

Enlisting Thomas as a PRally, she argued publicly thatthe procedure was life savingand cost effective.

Her efforts were poised topay off.

New data – including astudy published in 2013 in theNew England Journal of Medicinethat showed fecal transplantscured 94 per cent of patients,compared to 27 per cent withthe antibiotic vancomycin– convinced Fraser Healthto launch a pilot project thatwould have seen the proce-dure offered at Burnaby andRidge Meadows hospitals.

But that project was put onhold last Friday when Fraser

Health was made aware ofHealth Canada statementssaying it considers fecaltransplants “investigational,”meaning they can only be per-formed within the context ofan authorized clinical trial.

That requirement was newsto Fraser Health officials.

“We didn’t solicit HealthCanada approval for the pilotsince we did not considerfecal content would be consid-ered an experimental drug,”Fraser Health executive medi-cal director of infection pre-vention and control ElizabethBrodkin told the NOW in awritten statement.

Brodkin said the healthauthority wasn’t consideringa clinical trial for fecal trans-

plants since health officialshere feel there have been suf-ficient clinical trials to showthe treatment is “safe andeffective.”

“We are currently explor-ing options for next stepsand hope to be able to offerthis life saving treatment toour patients in the very nearfuture,” she wrote.

Thomas, however, is wor-ried about the potential tollthe delay will take on peoplecurrently suffering as she oncedid.

“In the meantime, howmany people are going todie?” she asked. “I think theyshould be able to do it. I can’tsee why the government isstopping it. It’s done me OK.”

Candidates will beannounced in a few weeks,once the party’s guiding prin-ciples are in place.

“In order to put a formaland coherent group together,you have to first have ideas,rather than personalities,”Friesen said.

By November, the party

hopes to have candidates inplace that are representativeof Burnaby’s diverse popu-lation, which mean workingthrough significant ideologi-cal differences within thegroup.

“Because they are a trueteam, there isn’t one personwaving the baton,” Friesensaid of the new coalition.

“We don’t have a (Mayor)Derek Corrigan. We don’thave somebody who’s tryingto say, ‘It’s my way. I’ll makethe decisions, and people willeither like it or lump it.’”

The end goal is to get morediversity on council, accordingto McLaren even if that meansGreens teaming up with for-mer members of BurnabyParents’ Voice, a party createdout of a group that opposedthe Burnaby school district’santi-homophobia policy andoften labeled “anti-gay.”

“We are joining forces ononly those issues which we allhave in common, and that’swhat coalitions do,” McLarentold the Burnaby NOW. “Weall agree on having an opencouncil, having actual debate

and that we are representativeof many different groups.”

That’s not the case nowin what McLaren describesas the Burnaby CitizensAssociation’s “monopoly” oncouncil, school board and theparks, recreation and culturecommission.

“Every time we were cam-paigning, we always heardpeople say, ‘Why is there notone united opposition?’ Sothat’s what we’re trying todo,” McLaren said.

when applying?JC: There’s a lot. Trying to think about what

ways that I can improve myself, what ways thatI need to try and stand out, but a lot of it’s alsoknowing that you’ve got to be part of a team sono matter what. Yes, it’s important to be yourbest, but you also need to know that you got abunch of other guys around you that you need tohelp out as well.

They’re only taking seven, so it’s like I need todo something to be that top seven. For me, it wastaking extra courses and just being around thelike-minded guys, it really gets you thinking inthat mentality of constantly training and better-ing yourself.

CD: How was your first day of recruittraining?

JC: It was tiring but good. You felt satisfiedat the end of the day. … t was kind of surreal. Itwas weird being there and like you finally had it,and it’s something you’ve been trying for a num-ber of years to get and achieve, and then you’reactually doing it.

I was going home and calling my parents andsaying: ‘Hey, this is what I did today!’ Just superexcited the whole time.

CD: What do you think your first call willbe like?

JC: It’s going to be different. Right now we’redoing first aid and it’s like, OK they’re a drown-ing victim, and they’re wet so you know youhave to dry them off. It’s hard to imagine butseeing the actual thing, that in itself will be a dif-ferent challenge.

I don’t know what it’s going to be like but Ithink that’s part of the excitement. I’m lookingforward to it.

Property taxes are going up in Burnaby,but not by as much as expected.

On Monday, council adopted its 2014-2018 financial plan, which contains a prop-erty tax increase of 1.97 per cent. However,that’s a drop from the projected 2.47-per-cent increase that council was looking atin the winter with this year’s provisionalfinancial plan.

In December, Coun. Dan Johnstonnoted the budget was pretty tight, but thatthere was still some potential “to realize

some additional opportunities” before thebudget was adopted earlier this week.

“We sat down twice over the last ninemonths with our staff and identified somevarious ways we could be a little moreefficient in what we did,” said Johnston,who serves as chair of the city’s financeand audit committees.

Johnston said revenue generatedby developments in Brentwood andMetrotown did the most to lessen the sizeof the tax increase for residents.

For the average home valued at $660,847,residents will pay an extra $26.82 per year,or a total of $1,549.22 annually, accord-

ing to the city’s finance director, DeniseJorgenson.

Johnston added that the city adjustedspending on a number of its programs, butnoted that they didn’t have to make anysignificant cuts.

“We identified some programs thatweren’t meeting the public’s need any-more so they were refined in a way thatwe didn’t have to spend as much moneyon them,” he said.

Last year, Johnston raised concernsthat a 1.75-per-cent wage increase for cityworkers in 2014, outlined in a collectiveagreement, put strain on the budget and

could lead to a hiring freeze for the city.While the city did scale back on hiring

for a time, Johnston said staff were cre-ative in delegating responsibilities in theirefforts to offset the $1.9 million spike in thebudget caused by the wage increase.

“We directed staff not to hire anybodyuntil they rationalized the roles,” he said.“Some of the positions that were anticipat-ed were for things like the new rec centre,which needed staff to fully function.

“There were a couple of new roles thatwe either delayed or retooled them intoother positions so that they weren’t neces-sarily full positions.”

Youth prisoners moving to city

Burnaby’s youth prison is about to takeon some extra teens now that the VancouverIsland youth prison is closing.

The province plans to transfer 15 minorsfrom Victoria Youth Custody Services,which is slated to close due to low numbersof incarcerated youth.

On Monday, Stephanie Cadieux, min-ister of children and family development,announced the closure, which leaves onlytwo youth prisons in the province.

“The youth that (are) currently in cus-tody will be transferred to the Burnabyfacility. They will be served there insteadof Victoria,” Cadieux told the NOW. “Wehave a lot of excess capacity in Burnabyas well. It will help us better manage theresources.”

Cadieux couldn’t say when theVancouver Island teens would be trans-ferred to Burnaby, as there are still manyloose ends that need to be dealt with beforethe Victoria centre can close.

“We have to go through a number ofprocesses with judges, sheriffs, police andthe union to ensure the collective agree-ment is followed for people who may belosing their jobs,” Cadieux said.

However, Burnaby’s centre is also over-staffed, according to Cadieux, so the extrateens will help balance out the surplus ofemployees.

“We do have overstaffing in Burnaby aswell, and when we move the 15 youth over,there may be some adjustments as well,”she said.

Providing our patients with individualized care and customerservice for the whole family. Including general dentistry,

smile makeovers and implant treatments.

You could say Janice Bobic is aveteran of the Burnaby Farmers’Market.

After all, she’s been a part ofit for six years running, going onseven.

“I’ve been with the marketever since it first started,” saidBobic, who runs My Father’sGarden, which boasts a variety ofjams, jellies, marmalades, pickles,relish, chutneys, fruit vinegars,herbs, spices and plants.

As the Burnaby Farmers’Market starts up again onSaturday, May 3, more than 100local vendors are gearing upto sell everything from acrylicpaintings and soapstone carvingsto body lotions and dog treats.

Bobic has been making pre-serves out of her kitchen foralmost 45 years. She decided tosell them at the market to keepbusy after she retired from hergovernment job 10 years ago.

“I’m not one to sit around anddo nothing and I was trying todecide what I was going to dowith myself,” she said. “I wantedsomething to do that I was pas-sionate about, and I found mypassion.”

Since 2008, Bobic has gathereda following, with many repeatcustomers coming back for moreof her jarred goods.

“I have my faithful customersthat always like my products,”she said. “I’ve had several peoplecome back or they send me anemail saying, ‘That’s the best jam

I ever had in my life.’ That’salways nice to hear.”

The market runs from thefirst Saturday of May to the lastSaturday of October, just outsideBurnaby City Hall. Bobic said thecrowds have grown greatly sinceshe first set up her booth.

“Every year since it started, weget more and more people com-ing – the word spreads and morepeople show up,” said Bobic. “Alot of people get really excitedabout all the different things theycan find at the farmers’ market.

“It becomes a real event, espe-

cially on a nice sunny day whenyou can leisurely walk around.”

But even with that increasedfoot traffic and the desire to pro-vide a wide variety of goods,Bobic keeps her booth to a one-person operation.

“The kitchen is only so big

and I wouldn’t have room for asecond person to work with me,”she said with a laugh.

The market runs everySaturday from May 3 to Oct. 25,from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., in the northparking lot of Burnaby City Hall,located at 4949 Canada Way.

THEN & NOW – A SPECIAL SERIES ON LOCAL HISTORY

The Burnaby ArtGallery has a muchstoried history. The

Fairacres mansion wasbuilt near Deer Lake Parkin 1911, designed by archi-tect R.P.P.S Twizzel, andwas owned by H.T. and

Grace Ceperley. It was thegrandest home in Burnabywhen it was built, accord-ing to the city’s website onthe property.

Gracepassed away in1917 and stipu-lated in her willthat the homebe sold and themoney be usedto build a children’s play-ground at Stanley Park.

The home was sold toformer Vancouver mayorFrederick Buscombe in1922.

Since then, it has beena Benedictine monastery,a fraternity house andfinally, an art gallery.

The man-sion was an artmuseum in the‘60s, and theBurnaby ArtGallery beganas an asso-ciation in 1967,

collecting and showingcontemporary art there.

The exterior of theEdwardian mansion wasrestored by the City ofBurnaby, which took over

management of the galleryin 1998.

Last fall, the gallery gota prestigious feather in itscap when it was chosen toshowcase National Galleryof Canada exhibition,Storms and Bright Skies:Three Centuries of DutchLandscapes, as well as acollection of Dutch por-traits.

The exhibit includedworks by well-knownDutch master Rembrandtvan Rijn.

today’sdriveYour journey starts here.

Picking up the kids from school? Youmight take a shortcut right up the side ofGrouse in this new crossover.

Here is a very important vehicle. And,judging from the squint, it’s forgotten itsbifocals.

Kidding aside, the Cherokee repre-sents a vital sales segment, both for Jeep/Chrysler and its new Fiat owners. Basedon the same Italian underpinnings as theDodge Dart, if this crossover does well,it’ll have the profits flooding in.

Overall, you could claim Jeep’s beenhaving a bit of a renaissance of late.They’ve had the good sense not to fiddlewith the Wrangler’s burly charactertoo much, and the Grand Cherokee is,frankly, excellent, a sort of AmericanizedRange Rover. The SRT version is possiblymy favourite SUV of all time.

With the resurrection of the Cherokeenameplate, not seen in over a decade,Jeep hopes to offer a smaller version ofits successful full-size SUV. Never mindthe way this rig’s giving you a suspiciousglare – it’s how it fares from behind thewheel that’s important.

DesignObviously, we first have to talk a little

more about that front end. It’s certainlystriking. Striking, that is, in the manner ofa frying pan to the face.

When it first showed its squintyschnoz, the Cherokee generated all kindsof hilarious jests, jeers and japes. Havingseen the thing in the flesh, I actuallykinda like it.

I know, I know: maybe it’s me whoneeds the bifocals. Here’s the thingthough, in the Trailhawk trim, with bigburly boots and plenty of plastic clad-ding, the Cherokee looks like somethingthat could have rolled right off the set ofthe original Robocop.

It’s futuristic, and polarizing, and I’msure you’ve already got an opinion on it.This Limited Trim tester came with 18-

inch polished alloys, and I will say thatthe more basic versions of the Cherokeecan’t quite pull off the scowl as well asthose with the beefier wheel and tirepackages.

EnvironmentOn the inside, the Cherokee benefits

from a great deal of parts-sharing acrossthe Chrysler lineup. While I’ve heardother colleagues complain about the oddbit of flimsiness in the plastics and stitch-

ing issues here and there, my particulartester didn’t seem to have too manyfoibles.

Jeep delayed the launch of its newcrossover significantly, focusing ontweaking things based on early reviewerfeedback, and this mostly shines throughin the Cherokee’s interior. It looks good,and the “infotainment” controls areamong the best on the market. It’s worthnoting, for instance, that both Maseratiand Ferrari use similar versions of the

Uconnect system, with its big, brighticons and easy-to-use interface.

Compared to others in the class, thisJeep is not quite the utilitarian box theold Cherokee was. It’s fine for passengerspace, especially as it’s equipped witha sliding rear seat, but the overall cargoroom is smaller than either an Escape ora CR-V.

As a Limited, this tester came fullyequipped with leather and the highest

Cherokee impresses both on and off-roadBrendan McAleercontributing writer

Tough haul: The new Cherokee offers a smaller version of Jeep’s successful full-size SUV. The result is a vehicle that workswell both on and off-road – even if its exterior design is polarizing.

today’sdriveYour journey starts here.

grades of interior trim, and was actuallya fairly snazzy ride. Both of the volume-selling Japanese vehicles in this segment,the CR-V and RAV4, seem to have agreater amount of hard plastics. TheCherokee does look like a little GrandCherokee from behind the wheel.

PerformanceIt also drives like one, but not all the

time. As mentioned, this crossover sitson a Fiat platform rather than the GrandCherokee’s Mercedes-Benz underpin-nings, and it feels it.

The Cherokee is more like the basecar, with somewhat numb steering, a ridetuned for comfort rather than speed, andan overall woolly and isolated drive.

That’s fine. We already have severalcrossovers that pretend convincingly tobe sports cars, from the Mazda CX-5 tothe Ford Escape. Comfort and smooth-ness are favoured in the Cherokee overcorner-carving, and thus it’ll probablyappeal to a broader range of tastes.

However, a little more feel could bewished for, and slightly better behaviourfrom the nine-speed automatic transmis-sion. You read that right: nine speeds– wasn’t eight supposed to be enough? Isthis thing a crossover or a mountain bike?

The 3.2L V6 engine can’t really be held

to blame here. It’s not crazy powerful,but does have a worthy 271 hp, if only amodest 239 lb./ft. of torque. It does feelslightly less grunty than other offerings,particularly the turbocharged ecoboostofferings from Ford, but it’s a durablepowerplant, and quite smooth.

Software updates for the nine-speedare probably on the way. The electricpower steering and the slight sponginessof the brakes are unlikely to change.

Having said that, the Cherokee isentirely competent, and then there’s whathappens when you take it even mildlyoff-road. It’s a tank.

Jeep’s active drive system has the abil-ity to adapt to nearly any terrain, and thechassis is composed and unstickable evenin the non-trail-rated version.

The Trailhawk looks the toughest, butthis city slicker Limited could quite easilyfollow a Wrangler down even a difficulttrail.

Frankly, I’d almost call the Cherokee’scapabilities an unfortunate temptation.So you’re on the run to pick up the kidsfrom school? You might take a shortcutright up the side of Grouse. Picking upthe groceries? Why not check the back-country for morels instead of shelling outfor them?

Add in a 2,000-kg towing capacity andyou’ve got the makings of a Jeep-serious

utility vehicle with relatively smooth andcomposed road manners. When the goinggets rough, the Cherokee proves itselfworthy of the seven-hole Jeep grille itwears out front.

FeaturesLike the Grand Cherokee, this smaller

Jeep has an overwhelming amount of techon-tap. The 8.4-inch touchscreen displaypairs with a customizable gauge cluster,and voice commands are easy to use.

For safety, available features includethe usual blind spot monitoring and lanedeparture warning, but also extend toautomatic cruise control and adaptive

high-beams. The $1,795 technology pack-age also includes forward collision miti-gation and parking assist.

The only drawback to all the goodiesavailable is the way the cost for this com-pact crossover can shoot up. Equippedwith a luxury group including powerliftgate, nine-speaker audio, towing pack-age, and a dual-pane sunroof, this testerCherokee cracked the $43,000 mark.That’s quite a bit.

Keep your Cherokee a little less grandand it’s competitive with others in thesegment.

Fuel economy is not necessarily astrong point, with an 11.1L/100km in-cityrating and 7.7L/100km on the highway.

The Cherokee will struggle to hit eitherfigure, and the gap between V6 and four-cylinder is fairly minimal.

Green lightExcellent off-road capability; well-

designed, upscale interior; polarizing styl-ing; available tech.

Stop signNumb steering; expensive options;

thirsty engine; small cargo capacity.

The checkered flagWorthy of wearing the Jeep badge.

Jeep: New Cherokee is a worthy entry in the SUV marketcontinued from page 17


Inside look: The interior of thenew Cherokee looks good, and the“infotainment” controls are among thebest in the market.

“Sixteen-year-oldSophie Pritchard,orphaned two years earlierby the sinking of the SSTitanic, is about to begin anew life in the unfamiliarworld of British India,” ablurb about the book says.“For Sophie, still devastat-ed by her parents’ death,India proves a dangerous-ly unsettling environment.Are her terrifying experi-ences in Kali’s temple andthe Park Street cemeteryhallucinations, or has shesomehow been drawnback through the centuriesas a witness to dark placesin Calcutta’s past?”

SIX OF 10 BUYERS

Do you have 20 per cent to putdown on residential propertypurchase? If so, you are rarein Canada’s housing markettoday where, despite the

urgings of the federal Finance Minister,few buyers have that kind of cash.

According to the latest data from CAAMP(Canadian Association of AccreditedMortgage Professionals) only 39 per cent ofhome buyers between 2010 and the spring of2012 put down 20 per cent or more. The surveyincluded both first-time and repeat buyers. First-timebuyers accounted for 56 per cent of those polled.

The survey found that:• 41 per cent of buyers had less than a 10 per cent

downpayment;• 21 per cent had more than 10 per cent but less

than 20 per cent to put down.This means that about 60 per cent of buyers needed

to purchase mortgage insurance. This insurance thatprotects the lender in case the borrower defaults onhis or her mortgage payments. If an insured mortgageis in default, and the lender can’t collect from the bor-rower, the insurer pays the lender back.

Mortgage default insurance is required by most

lenders whenever a homeowner puts down less than20 per cent. The biggest mortgage insurers in Canadaare Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation,Genworth Financial, and Canada Guaranty--in thatorder. Mortgage insurers charge premiums to bor-rowers to cover the insurance expense. These feescan range from less than 1 per cent to more than 5per cent of the principal value, depending on the bor-rower’s mortgage type, loan-to-value, property type,and amortization.

The insurance premiums are typically added to themortgage at the time of closing. While possible, theyare rarely paid in advance.

Putting down 10 per cent on the [Canadian] aver-age $350,152 home, for example, means the buyerwill pay $6,302 insurance premium (given fully docu-mented income and decent credit). Since insurancepremiums are tacked on to the mortgage that adds upto $9,000 or more if the mortgage loan is amortizedover 25 years.

It is easy to see how mortgage insurance rulechanges - which came in this summer - may alterhome buying trends. In another few months, we’ll geta good sense for how recent changes in the mortgagemarket will impact buyers and mortgage volumes,despite mortgage rates remaining near historic lows.

PUT LESS THAN20 PER CENTDOWN Saving for a downpayment is challenging:

most home buyers need mortgageinsurance to balance the purchase.

Burnaby North Vikings,Burnaby Central Wildcatsand New WestminsterHyacks finished 1-2-3 inthe regular season follow-ing separate shutout winson the final day of leagueplay on Tuesday.

Regular season champi-on North stopped BurnabySouth 5-0, while Centralheld the fort againstMoscrop to gain secondplace overall with a 2-0victory.

Cliff settles for silver medal in Coastal B Cups

Cliff Avenue United won a pair of silvermedals in Coastal B Cup finals in Richmondlast weekend.

The under-17 boys’ dropped a narrow 2-1decision to the Coquitlam Metro-Ford Nitro,while the u-18 girls’ met a similar 2-1 fate onpenalty kicks at the hands of the Surrey UnitedElite.

The Cliff boys fell behind 2-0 at the halfto the physical Nitro squad, but acquittedthemselves much better in the second stanza,outscoring the eventual winners on KeenanMalloy’s free kick. Malloy’s shot from out-side the 18-yard box appeared to glance off adefender, fooling the Metro-Ford keeper.

“As much as we had a ton of chances, wedidn’t get a lot of opportunities on the ball,”said Cliff Avenue coach Vito Lore. “We werefighting the ball. We were unfortunate.”

Prior to the cup playdowns, the u-17 boyswon the 4District championship for a secondtime.

This summer, Cliff will get another secondchance to make amends at the provincial

championships.The u-18 Cliff girls also had plenty of

opportunities to win in their match with theleague champion from Surrey.

Cliff Avenue, who had earlier defeatedSurrey in the league championship cup, wide-ly outshot the Elite in the opening half butcame away with a 1-1 draw at the interval onthe game-tying goal by Chantelle Parra.

Surrey opened the scoring on its one andonly shot on goal, while the North Burnabyclub forced many chances, including a ball offthe crossbar and at least 10 corner kick oppor-tunities, said Cliff coach Dino Piccolo.

The second half was a closer affair.“We just couldn’t muster a chance to score

(in the latter frame). It just looked like one ofthose days,” said Piccolo, who has coached acore group of the girls since u-6.

The shootout session went to a seventhshooter before Surrey United took the cup witha 4-3 advantage in penalty kicks.

Piccolo was not altogether disappointedthough. In the team’s four seasons at Cliff, thegirls have finished among the top three clubs.

“It’s been a really good season and fourgood years,” he added.
