Violent crime drops but not business break-insby Martin van den HemelStaff Reporter

Violent crime overall is down in 2012 com-pared to a year earlier, according to the lat-est figures from the Richmond RCMP.

In a report to be presented Wednesday af-ternoon to Richmond city council’s commu-nity safety committee, the statistics indicate that assaults and sexual offences were both down, contributing to a 15.5-per-cent drop in violent crime through the end of August, 2012.

While assaults were down 12.6 per cent, and assault-with-a-weapon incidents fell 17 per cent, and sexual offences dropped 13.5 per cent, the notable exception was robber-ies, which rose 12.2 per cent.

Property-related crime has also been down this year, falling 5.8 per cent, including a 22.8 per cent drop in motor vehicle thefts, and a 35.7 per cent reduction in metal theft.

But business break-ins were up 15 per cent, as was theft, up 7.4 per cent.

Arson-related fires were down 38.6 per cent, as were drug-related files, falling 17.5 per cent.

In an effort to address business break-ins, the RCMP’s new Volunteer Business Watch program was launched in July at the new City Centre Community Police Station.

The program involves volunteers going door-to-door to businesses, delivering crime-prevention information packages including a business watch newsletter and brochure.

Volunteers offer to install a height strip at the business, and collect e-mail information for including in the new Commercial Break and Enter e-mail alert distribution program, which indicates whenever a break-in occurs in their neighbourhood.

RCMP, ICBC want attitude change

by Martin van den HemelStaff Reporter

Distracted driving was the fo-cus of a crackdown last week by Richmond Mounties in a part-nership with the Insurance Cor-poration of B.C. dubbed Project Swoop.

But The Richmond Review at-

tempted to gauge the preva-lence of distracted driving during 90 minutes of quiet ob-servation one weekday after-noon recently at No. 3 Road and Westminster Highway.

Finding people driving while dis-tracted did not prove difficult.

While it was mostly cellular phones that were a problem, many who pulled up to a red light at the intersection could be seen fiddling with maps or books.

One woman was checking what appeared to be her lengthy gro-

cery shopping receipt.The male driver of a new Hyundai

Tuscon SUV gets mixed reviews for wearing a bluetooth earpiece, but a big thumbs down for fiddling with his phone while pulling up to the red light.

And while The Review couldn’t capture photographic evidence of the driver of a dark blue BMW SUV fiddling with the backlit screen of her phone or music player as she ran a yellow light, many others were caught red-handed.

Many tried to hide their behav-

iour, holding their phones below shoulder-level, near the bottom of their vehicle’s steering wheel and nearly out of view for passersby.

Others were chatting in plain view, talking via speaker phone into the base of their iPhones, while the driver of a black BMW 740i was kind enough to roll down his passenger side window as The Review photo-graphed him with his cell phone, earphones trailing from his ears to his iPhone.

From Page 1RCMP Sgt. Rob Quilley, head of the Rich-

mond Road Safety Unit, said it’s young drivers, mostly 20 to 30 year olds, who aren’t getting the message that driving while texting or chatting with a phone in hand, is hazardous, can be deadly, and is most certainly against the law.

Last month, Quilley’s squad issued 170 electronic device violations, while general duty officers handed out another 70, he said.

Using a cell phone at red lights and in stop-and-go traffic is also illegal, Quilley pointed out, and under the province’s dis-tracted driving laws specific to electronic devices, comes with a $167 ticket.

Quilley pointed to an American study that noted that after the enactment of leg-islation prohibiting cell phone use, rates of crashes actually increased.

That’s thought to be because people tried to hide their use of phones more, down to out-of-view levels from other drivers, meaning their eyes were shifted further away from the roadway.

According to Mounties, one quarter of fatal crashes in B.C. over the past five years were attributed to distracted driving. It’s now the third leading cause of driving fa-talities in the province.

During last week’s enforcement, six peo-ple were charged with distracted driving, with another 35 charged with speeding, including one driver who was going down Russ Baker way at 110 kilometres per hour in a 50-kilometre-per-hour zone.

But electronics aren’t the sole culprit when it comes to distracted driving.

People with pets in their laps, brushing their hair, eating bowls of noodles or ce-real, Quilley has seen it all. These can be charged with driving without due care and attention, he said.

Richmond RCMP Cpl. Sherrdean Turley said a recent education and enforcement campaign was intended to remind drivers about the dangers of speeding and dis-tracted driving.

“We’ve been telling people for quite some time now to slow down and pay at-tention when driving, but still collisions are occurring where speed and distracted driving are factors,” Turley said.

Joanne Bergman, ICBC’s road safety co-ordinator, said: “We’re offering free down-loadable ringtones that remind drivers not to respond to calls or texts while driving. We want to help change their behaviours so that our roads are safer for everyone.”

Local draws with heartby Don FennellStaff Reporter

When Tina Huang’s mom encouraged her to enter the Richmond Chinese Community Soci-ety’s annual children’s drawing contest last year, she was only too happy to oblige.

But the 12-year-old certainly didn’t expect to place third in the local competition, let alone earn first-place honours at the international level.

“My mom told me about the contest I was ex-cited, but I just wanted to participate,” Huang said. “To win was unbelievable.”

Huang won in the junior (aged three to 11) category in which the theme was Healthy Heart Family.

Huang was presented with a special silver plate Sunday at the Richmond Chinese Com-munity Society’s 2012 drawing contest. Healthy Heart Family was again the theme of the junior category, with a smoke-free community the theme for the senior group (ages 12 to 17).

The goal of the event is to promote a healthy lifestyle and is held in support of the Interna-tional Chinese Heart Health Network’s World Heart Day. Winning drawings will be sent to the international drawing competition final which will also feature drawings from places such as Hong Kong, Beijing, Singapore and Toronto.

Police still searching for victim’s attacker


A 17-year-old girl was taken to hospital late Friday night with multiple non-life-threatening stab wounds following a house party in Hamilton.

Around 11 p.m., Richmond Mounties were called to a report of a stabbing at a house near the intersection of Gilley Road and Smith Drive, where a house party was being held.

Richmond RCMP said none of the injuries were serious.

Investigators were unable to identify or locate her attacker, despite the assistance of the RCMP police dog team, and the RCMP helicopter Air One.

Anyone with information about the stabbing, or who was at the house party and still hasn’t spo-

ken to police, is asked to call the Richmond RCMP at 604-278-1212•Richmond RCMP are hoping to

talk to the Asian driver of a silver or gold minivan who was involved in a crash with a young cyclist at the Broadmoor Shopping Centre on Tuesday morning.

RCMP Cpl. Annie Linteau said Mount-ies were contacted about the accident around 9:45 a.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 2.

The 11-year-old victim sustained su-perficial cuts to both of his legs.

The driver of the minivan stopped and asked if the young boy was alright, but left the area without contacting the police or leaving her contact informa-tion.

The driver is described as an Asian woman, about 40 years old, was wear-ing a black jacket and spoke perfect English.

She was driving a gold or silver co-loured minivan.

Police are asking the driver to come forward.

Anyone with information about the crash is asked to call Richmond RCMP Const. Ng at 604-278-1212.

Surrey gets great value, Richmond not so much, says staff report


When it comes to value for dollar, Richmond is paying out more than it receives in services from the RCMP’s five specialized integrated teams, according to a recently-pre-pared city staff report.

And while Richmond is on the short end of the stick, Sur-rey is comparatively getting great value, the report states.

Last month, Richmond city council’s community safety committee requested staff to analyze the RCMP’s integrated team annual report which was received at the end of August.

City staff ’s analysis was slated to be received for in-formation at Wednesday af-

ternoon’s community safety committee.

The report details the cost of funding the five specialized integrated teams: Integrated Homicide Investigation Team, Integrated Forensic Identifi-cation Services, Integrated Collision Analysis and Recon-struction Service, Integrated Police Dog Services and Emergency Response.

Richmond’s expenditure for the teams has grown from $2.69 million in 2008/09 to $3.35 million in 2011/12, and is expected to jump another 11 per cent to $3.72 million for the 2012/13 year.

In a comparison of major cities over the past two years (Burnaby, North Vancouver, Richmond and Surrey), Rich-mond paid out $6.34 mil-lion between 2010/11 and 2011/12, but received just $5.09 million in services, a shortfall of $1.25 million.

Surrey, meanwhile, paid out $19.46 million while it received $24.85 million in

services, meaning Surrey re-ceived a discount of $5.39 million.

Joan Clarke, manager of fi-nance community safety for the City of Richmond, wrote in the report: “Over the past three years, on average, the city has paid $371,431 annu-ally more for the integrated teams than the value of the services received and thus, future annual monitoring will take place.”

Clarke noted that during the recent contract renewal negotiations with the RCMP, the city requested that the province fund the integrated teams 100 per cent. Currently, the homicide team is funded on a 70:30 basis between cit-ies and the province, with all other teams being 90:10 be-tween cities and Ottawa.

“Staff will continue to ex-amine, based on historical us-age, whether the existing cost sharing formula with other municipalities is equitable,” Clarke wrote.

Chief says force will still be relevant after fare gates

by Jeff NagelBlack Press

Crime against passengers and staff on TransLink’s transit sys-tem fell 17 per cent in the first half of the year, according to Transit Police.

The change reflects a drop in reports of theft, assaults and sexual assaults.

Property crime on the system, including vandalism, dropped four per cent from 2011.

Chief Neil Dubord acknowl-edged crime rates are gener-ally falling in North America, but called the drop in reported crime significant and noted it was accompanied by a 10 per

cent improvement in surveyed passengers’ perception of safety on the system.

Transit Police investigations led to more than 500 charge recommendations to Crown counsel in the first six months of 2012.

Officers also arrested 530 fugi-tives wanted in other jurisdic-tions on outstanding warrants.

The force conducted 1.4 mil-lion fare checks in the first nine months of 2012 as TransLink stepped up efforts to reduce fare evasion.

Dubord rejected suggestions that the 167-officer force—whose budget is about $29 mil-lion—will have much less to do once fare gates now being in-stalled at SkyTrain stations are activated next year.

“Once fare gates go in our goal is to continue to protect our passengers,” he said, adding that will likely mean more time

patrolling buses.Officers will still need to con-

duct fare checks on SkyTrain in-side the gated areas, he added, because some some fare evad-ers will come through the gates two or three at a time or crawl under or over the paddle turn-stiles.

He rejected suggestions from critics that the force could be dismantled and its duties han-dled jointly by existing RCMP and municipal police forces.

He said the original case for a standalone force remains valid —that shared coverage by oth-er forces would end up being spotty and public safety would suffer.

Dubord said the force has re-doubled its efforts to control costs.

Improved scheduling has halved overtime costs, he said, adding that’s expected to save $300,000 to $400,000 this year

Netminder to play at River Rock Casino


Goalie Roberto Luongo may not be playing any NHL games in October, but that's not going to stop him from pursuing one of his other passions.

Luongo, the Vancouver Canucks’ goalie who is in on the trading block, has indicated he's ready to test his skills against the world's best when the World Series of Poker makes its inaugural visit to Canada, at the River Rock Casino Resort.

Ten events are slated to be held in Richmond from Oct. 27 to Nov. 7, includ-ing two online events on Nov. 18 and Nov. 25.

"This is huge news for poker players," Great Ca-nadian vice president Howard Blank said.

Luongo finished 639th

out of 6,598 entrants at the 2012 World Series of Poker in Las Vegas.

"Having Roberto Luon-go take part in the World Series of Poker Circuit event here at the River Rock Casino Resort is a true milestone. Luongo is a talented poker player and I know many play-

ers are ready to sit at the table with such an amaz-ing athlete," Blank said.

Players will compete for more than $2.5 mil-lion in prize money, with the winner getting invit-ed to play for a million dollars and a trademark gold bracelet at the na-tional championships'

main event in New Or-leans in May of 2013.

Last November, Lu-ongo took part in the first annual Robert Lu-ongo Charity Poker Classic at River Rock, an event organized by the Richmond casino and the online gaming site playnow.com.

Zhongming James Mou pleads guilty to second-degree murder of Yating ‘Lancy’ Hu


A 36-year-old man has pled guilty in B.C. Supreme Court in New Westmin-ster to the 2011 murder of mother-of-two Yating “Lan-cy” Hu.

Zhongming James Mou, Hu’s estranged husband, pled guilty Tuesday after-

noon to the second-degree murder in Hu’s death, ac-cording to Integrated Ho-micide Investigation Team’s Sgt. Jennifer Pound.

“Lancy Hu is missed by her family including her par-ents and her young boys,” Pound said.

“This tragedy will require endless healing for those who loved her. IHIT works tirelessly for homicide vic-

tims and their families who forever have their lives changed.”

The body of Hu, a Co-quitlam mother-of-two, was found in the waters off the west part of Steveston in late August of 2011 by two boaters who were out fishing, and spotted a suit-case.

According to Pound, Hu and Mou were experienc-

ing marital problems and Hu moved out of the family home in Coquitlam and to a home in Burnaby.

But she was last seen leav-ing the Coquitlam condo she once shared with Mou in July of 2011, and he was the last person to see her alive.

The couple’s two children had been in the care of Mou’s parents, who report-

edly live in Richmond.Investigators initially sus-

pected foul play.Although they had dis-

covered Hu’s body in late August of 2011, they did not publicly disclose that information, and instead conducted their investiga-tion.

Mou was initially charged with first-degree murder last September.

opinion

My column on skills training a couple of

weeks ago gave short shrift to the NDP posi-tion: tax the banks and hand out grants for women’s studies, sociol-ogy and other worth-less pursuits, while skilled jobs go begging.

That’s a pretty crude caricature, so I sat down with NDP leader Adrian Dix in his legislature office last week to get a better sense of his thinking on

the subject.Dix has been devoting a

lot of time lately to skills training, in trades particu-larly. He meets frequently with business people now, and his recent speeches emphasize that every one of them talks about the growing shortage of skilled employees.

Dix credits Premier Christy Clark and jobs minister Pat Bell with making some good moves recently, announcing equipment upgrades for vocational programs around the province. He says it’s because the NDP have been “pounding away at them for eight months” about freezing advanced education spending in their March budget. Dix calls that a crucial mistake and predicts the govern-ment will reverse it soon.

“So I think, if we’re going to have a mission for four years as a government, if we’re elected, this is the mission: to start to address the skills shortage,” he told me.

In his speech to the recent municipal conven-tion, and again at an NDP provincial council meet-ing, Dix zeroed in on B.C.’s apprenticeship system. Since the B.C. Liberals took it from trade unions and set up a Crown corporation called the Industry Training Authority in 2004, the com-pletion rate for apprentices has fallen to 37 per cent, he said.

Dix assured me he isn’t proposing to “blow up” the ITA, or hand control back to unions. They will have “a voice,” along with business.

Speaking to the NDP ex-ecutive, Dix referred to Phil Hochstein, president of the non-union Independent Contractors and Businesses’ Association, as the symbol of trades training decline. Not surprisingly, Hochstein has a different take.

The 37 per cent figure is misleading, Hochstein said, because under the ITA there are currently 32,000 apprentices in the system, twice as many as when

it was union controlled. Many drop out in the first year, and Alberta claims a better completion rate because they don’t start counting until the second year. And when Dix touts Alberta’s “mandatory” trade system, Hochstein said he means returning to a system where all work is restricted to journeymen or registered apprentices of that trade.

“What it does is impose union jurisdiction on the training system of the en-tire construction industry,” Hochstein said. “So multi-skilling, multi-tasking, organizing the work in the most efficient way is blown out of the water, and it’s stuck in the old craft sys-tem of training.”

The marketplace has spoken on that restric-tive system, he said, and unionized construction is down to about five per cent of the market, based on payroll.

Hochstein said the NDP talks a great game about

getting more young people into trades. But when unions have the up-per hand, they will always favour seniority. A quota of two apprentices per jour-neyman means another one can’t be hired.

Dix agreed with me that the public school system has over-emphasized university, to the detri-ment of not just industrial trades but lab techs, chefs and other skilled workers that are in short supply. As B.C. Federation of Labour president Jim Sinclair recently noted, trades-men themselves often don’t encourage their kids, because they’ve been told all their lives that they are “tool monkeys” in a dead-end job.

And would NDP student grants be targeted to need? Dix’s answer was a definite maybe.

Skills training ‘our mission,’ Dix declares

B.C. ViewsTom Fletcher

Imagine a police of-ficer firing his pistol into a crowded the-

atre while blindfolded.That’s essentially what

drivers do everyday when they fiddle with their iPhones and Blackber-ries on busy streets and highways.

When Apple’s genius founder Steve Jobs first introduced the iPhone many years ago, he probably never envi-sioned that the use of his world-changing gadget could have deadly conse-quences.

Now people will say that guns don’t kill people. It’s the person who pulls the trigger that’s responsible.

Indeed, cell phones won’t kill, and it’s the owners of iPhones and iP-ods who need to get their heads in the game when it comes to driving.

Every time they’re behind the wheel, they’re in complete control of a 3,000-pound bullet, that commonly hurtles down the street at 50 kilometres per hour.

Doing this while peek-ing occasionally at the cell phone in one’s lap is homicidal.

The law calls it distract-ed driving, but when it involves a deadly pile-

up, it’s really negligent homicide.

So what’s the solution?Much like has been

done with drinking and driving, the prospect of losing one’s car might just be enough to convince cell phone users to ignore

those rings. Or how about losing one’s licence. And to top that off, how about a public shaming.

It’s just a matter of time before a pedestrian, or a child in a car’s baby seat, becomes a victim of someone’s selfish

behaviour.No phone call is worth a

person’s life.If it’s so important, buy a

BlueTooth device that of-fers hands-free operation.

But as could be seen in one instance, an iPhone user with a BlueTooth

earpiece still couldn’t be bothered to keep his hands off his gadget.

If you use your iPhone while driving, shame on you.

If you see someone do-ing that, let them know it’s anything but cool.

EDITORIAL: Cell phones a deadly distraction

The future is yoursRichmond invites you to comment on the new 2041 Official Community Plan

City Board


www.richmond.ca

After almost three years in the making, the new 2041 Official Community Plan (OCP) is undergoing final public and stakeholder review before it goes to Council for final approval. With the title, Moving Towards Sustainability, this new Official Community Plan sets the framework for Richmond’s future development to 2041.

The public has a number of opportunities to learn more about the new plan and to provide comment.

Why should you be interested? The OCP is a tool that helps assist Richmond City Council in managing to 2041, population and employment growth, development, housing, transportation, community amenities, infrastructure and the natural environment.

The updated plan includes •targetsforRichmond’spopulationtogrowto

280,000 by 2041, by allowing increased density in selected areas, while protecting existing single family neighbourhoods, farmland and environmentally sensitive areas

•stepstosupportRichmond’sagingpopulation •planstoreducerelianceontheautomobilefor

BackgroundThe City last updated its Official Community Plan in 1999. The new 2041 OCP Update was prepared along with extensive participation of residents, business owners and stakeholders. The process involved three major rounds of community consultation beginning in November 2009 with over 28 OCP public open houses over the three-year period, along with City-wide surveys, and online discussion forums.

The vision for the new 2041 OCP Update... is for Richmond to be a sustainable and healthy island city that meets the needs of the present, without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.

Seatbelts save lives, but can be dangerous too

Editor:Re: “Saturday marks

10 year anniversary of Const. Jimmy Ng’s death.”

The photo of the police car is exactly why seatbelt laws can be a death sentence and should be worn at the discretion of the driver. They do save lives but they can also kill.

I was in the same type accident. Fear got me out of the seat and on to the driver at the last second. For-tunately, it happened before seatbelt laws took effect in Canada in 1976.

Accidents happen fast and, take my word for this, you don’t have time to consider unbuckling your seat-belt.

letters

Editor:We are always being encouraged to

take public transit instead of driving, but how can we be convinced to take the bus after being told that bus ser-vice may be reduced?

A few weeks ago, TransLink an-nounced that bus service may be reduced for the next few years. Transit is a convenient and environmentally-friendly way to travel, but what would happen if bus service was cut down? What would happen to the people who rely on transit every day? What about people who went for a night out and needed a safe way to get home? Many people would be affected, and taking the bus would no longer be con-venient for them. Some people may

even have to arrange for alternatives to taking the bus.

The government is always encourag-ing us to take public transit because it is better for the environment, but if you cut down bus service, some people may go back to using their cars. Fur-thermore, the laws about drinking and driving is being enforced, but reduced bus service at night would mean that finding alternatives to driving would be more difficult and thus, the number of road accidents could increase. In today’s society, we should be improv-ing our lifestyles and planning for the future, but slowing bus service won’t move anything forward.

Editor:As the spokesperson for the pilot project “Richmond

Rental Connect” I wanted to update the readership on the project and thank everyone that has given their volunteer time, expertise and services to ensure its success.

Since April 2012, the Richmond Rental Connect project has co-ordinated three community engage-ment events for landlords owning secondary suites and tenants seeking safe and affordable housing. As well two newsletters have been distributed throughout Richmond. In September we conducted an education workshop called “Building Successful Landlord-Tenant

Relations.” Before year-end there will be one more workshop where tenants, homeowners and landlords can get together and talk over issues, challenges and solutions that will assist them in building positive long term relationships.

In 2013 the project will turn to providing educational workshops and administering a housing registry where both parties can post their accommodations and needs. They will be working with community agencies to enlist tenants needing such services and will be pro-viding continued support, information and resources through the website www.richmondrentalconnect.ca. Workshops in the coming year will be focused on the residential tenancy act, respectful communications, financial literacy, landlord mentorship and dispute resolution.

The Richmond Rental Connect project would like to thank the following community groups for their gener-ous offerings. Without them, the project could not have been successful. Thanks to the City of Richmond, Rich-mond Family Place, Richmond Caring Place, CHIMO Crisis Services, McNair Secondary School Culinary Arts program, Richmond Cultural Centre, Richmond Shares, Richmond Civic Engagement Network, Richmond Youth Services Agency, KAIROS, Richmond Pentecostal Church, South Arm United Church, BCGEU, CUPE Local 718, Nurse Next Door, Cooperators Insurance, BC Hous-ing, BC Apartment Owners and Managers Association and BC Rental Housing Coalition.

Thanks also to our funding sources: Vancity, Rich-mond Community Foundation, RBC Dominion Securities and the City of Richmond. We could not have embarked on this without their support.

The project committee is truly grateful to the commu-nity of Richmond for the amazingly warm response and support the project has received. Richmond residents have shown overwhelmingly that this is the right time and the right place for Richmond Rental Connect. Thanks to you all!

Landlords, realtors, contractors and especially homeowners have been saving thousands of dollars updating kitchens, laundry rooms and rental suites all by taking a drive to Richmond Wholesale Appliance Centre, near the Richmond Olympic Oval.

Richmond Wholesale Appliance Centre is the Lower Mainland’s best-kept secret.

Its store front is tucked into the industrial park located at 140—6191 Westminster Hwy., but it’s what’s inside that has customers excited and repeatedly coming back.

Does the idea of saving more than $2,000 while outfitting a kitchen with high-end stainless steel appliances intrigue you?

Sales manager Claudia Kolar has been helping customers save thousands of dollars by supplying them with deeply discounted, new, overstocked, scratched and/or dented appliances.

In many cases the imperfection is on the back or the side of the appliance so depending on the design of one’s kitchen it would be completely invisible to the discerning eye of friends and family.

Sporting the second-best record in the Pa-ci� c International Junior Hockey League heading into this week, it’s dif-� cult to � nd fault with the Richmond Sockeyes.

But almost from the outset this season, one area of concern for the coaching sta� has been

the powerplay. Speci� -cally, a lack of produc-tion.

“Our penalty killing has been great all year and quietly been a big factor for us,” says head coach Aaron Wilbur, whose team was 6-1-1 going into Tuesday’s rematch with the league-leading Delta Ice Hawks at Lad-ner Leisure Centre. Delta shut out Richmond 4-0 Thursday at Minoru Are-nas.

In contrast, the power-play has been virtually a non-factor—at least un-til Saturday when it went

3-for-7 in a 3-1 victory over the North Vancou-ver Wolf Pack at Harry Jerome Rec Centre.

“It’s something we’ve focused on,” Wilbur says. “I thought we looked disorganized (two weeks

ago) against North Delta and we went over the fundamentals again. Our goal is to just be consis-tent and obviously on Saturday that was the case.”

See Page 16Several factors out of

the Sockeyes’ control also explain the team’s strug-gles with the man ad-vantage. They lost three mainstays in their first few games when Justin Rai signed with the BCHL Prince George Spruce Kings, Justin Lachance retired, and Rudi Thor-steinson was sidelined by tonsillitis. Thorsteinson was only expected to be out of the lineup for two weeks but complications has changed the timeline to indefinite.

“It’s not been easy on us,” says Wilbur. “Every team goes through a rough patch, but none of us have ever seen any-thing like this.”

But he refuses to make

excuses or let current circumstances dictate. Instead, Wilbur says the player losses have provided others with unexpected opportuni-ties—including provid-ing some affiliate players from the Midget Division with some early-season experience.

Reflecting back on Thursday’s loss to Delta, Wilbur says that while the Ice Hawks definitely outplayed the Sockeyes in all three zones, he thought his players in most instances were in good position—until they were two feet from the puck and then failed to execute.

“We had trouble taking it off their stick, and when we had it they were able

to take it without a lot of difficulty,” he says. “There are a lot of different ways to win games and one of the rules is that if it’s a

big game, the playoffs or against a rival one of the consistencies is compet-ing for the puck is going to be hard. We need to

know that.”Richmond hosts Ab-

Oval new home for karate

Richmond Olympic Oval will soon become the new home of karate in Canada, hosting six competitive events over four years starting in 2014.

The events include four national championships and two International competitions.

“We’re very excited to secure this four-year partnership with Karate Canada,” said Richmond Mayor Malcolm Brodie. “This will result in signifi-cant economic benefits for our community, as well as enhancing community vi-brancy. It means Canada’s best athletes will be able to pursue their dreams of excellence in a world class facility and the youth of our community will have the opportunity to be in-spired by and learn from those same athletes.”

The Oval will play host to the annual Karate Canada National Championship–in which Canadian Na-tional team selection will take place –every Janu-ary. More than 450 Ca-nadian athletes, coaches, officials and delegates will take part in each national championship, while the event is expected to attract up to 1,500 spectators over three days of competition.

In 2014 and 2017 the Oval will also host more than 230 athletes, coach-es, officials and delegates from Canada, Mexico and the United States as a part of the North American Cup.

A trio of provincial team players has powered the Steveston-London Sharks to an early lead in the Richmond high school senior boys’ volleyball league and earned the team honourable men-tion status in the latest B.C. AAA rankings.

But B.C. under-16 members Mitch Jes-son and six-foot-three twins Ethan and Gabriel Freund aren’t the only Sharks with bite. Oppo-nents must also contend with Josh Lindenthaler in the middle, Kingston

Cheung, Nick Chan, Zack Pang, Marcus Yeung and Lenny Tabakman. Com-ing off the bench are Ja-cob Yeung, Forest Kong, Tian Xing Li, Nathan Ip and Matthew Lay.

“These kids work very hard and have great vol-leyball skills, and when our mental focus is there we are a tough team to defeat,” says teacher-coach Edmond Ma.

The talented Sharks are 3-0 in league play as they get set to host the 2-0 Richmond Colts next Monday at 7 p.m. They defeated H.J. Cambie Crusaders three games to one in their opener Sept.

24, blanked A.R. MacNeil Ravens 3-0 Oct. 1, and edged Richmond Chris-tian Eagles 3-1 Oct. 3.

S te ve s to n - Lo n d o n began the season by reaching the final of the Capilano Blues’ tourna-

ment Sept. 28 and 29 on the North Shore. They opened round-robin play with a straight sets win over the Seaquam Seahawks and defeated Pacific Christian 2-1 be-fore dropping their final

pool game to a huge team from Penticton in straight sets. In the play-offs, they swept aside Bel-mont Bulldogs 2-0 and edged the Colts 2-1 in the semifinals before playing undefeated Penticton in

a rematch for the cham-pionship. Though they lost, the game, which was played in front of a large crowd in the university gym, was competitive throughout.

Hugh McRoberts Strik-

ers, 3-0 winners over Cambie in their latest outing Oct. 3, are set to play at Richmond High tonight at 7 p.m. The Colts are coming off a 3-0 win over Hugh Boyd Trojans Oct. 1.

“DALI” NEEDS A GOOD HOME WITH YOU!

5431 NO. 3 RD. 604-276-2254

“DALI”, ID # 277985, NM, HOLLAND LOP CROSS, 1 YEARS 1 MONTH (APPROX)Dali’s name was inspired by his beautiful Dalmatian-like spots. He was found as a stray in Abbotsford and arrived at the Richmond SPCA via the Drive for Lives Program. He is a friendly, easy-going, and trusting rabbit. He loves his greens and needs them daily to make sure that he stays healthy. Rabbits can live as long as 12 years and the lifelong commitment will certainly be very rewarding as Dali is an affectionate guy! He requires a multi-level bunny hutch and daily exercise outside of his hutch. Remember to always supervise when he is out as he does, like all rabbits, like to chew on everything. Egg cartons and phone books make for great chew toys. Paper bags, cat toys and even baby toys can be a source of great entertainment as rabbits can get frustrated if they become bored. Dali will make a great addition to any household.

Children’s Drawing Contest at Lansdowne Centre

Beautiful works of art with messag-es about living a

healthy lifestyle were created at the Rich-mond Chinese Com-munity Society’s 2012 Children’s Drawing Contest at Lansdowne Centre last Sunday.

Over 200 children par-ticipated in the contest,

which is in its seventh year, while even more stopped by to participate in the crafts and games section of the event that the RCCS’s youth group set up and ran.

“We thought this is a great educational tool,” said Henry Beh, the executive director of the RCCS.

Each year the contest features two themes that are always different but are always connected to heart health. “It’s great to promote healthy lifestyles in Richmond,” Beh said. “We want the community aware.”

The contest was broken down into two catego-ries: junior, for those ages 3-11 and senior, for those ages 12-17.

This year, the junior group followed the theme of a heart healthy family, while the senior group drew pictures relating to a smoke-free community.

Three judges deter-mined the top three drawings in each cat-egory, and selected a group of consolation prize winners.

The winning drawings from each category will go on to the International Chinese Heart Health Network’s international children’s drawing com-petition in Hong Kong.

Amanda Oye covers the social scene for The Rich-mond Review. She may be reached at [email protected].
