Colleen Rennison, lead singer of Vancouver blues band No Sinner, kicked off this year’s Burnaby Blues + Roots festival at Deer Lake Park. The annual festival was chosen as one of Burnaby’s favourite community events of the year.
Mario Bartel Newsleader
Welcome to the NewsLeader’s A-List. This summer, we put the call out to readers, in the form of a survey, asking residents to name some of their favourite things in the city.
The list includes restaurants—with everything from best place for brunch, best wine list and best place for late night eats—to where to get a great haircut, a
deal on a used car, or vintage clothes.
It may not be a precise, scientific survey, but it’s a great way to get a good sense of some of the great businesses that are worth visiting in Burnaby, and
some of the great attractions this city has to offer, such as Burnaby Lake and Fraser Foreshore Park.
If anything, the A-List will help you appreciate the amazing offerings in this city.
Congratulations to all who made this year’s A-List.
—Chris Bryan, Editor

We understand that moving from a long-time family home can be a heart-
wrenching experience, at any age. Yet when our new residents settle in and see how
much they have gained in the way of comfort, friendship, services and amenities
of a luxurious resort, they begin to realize that the most important aspect of their
move is that they kept their dignity, self-respect and freedom of choice. All things
considered, it’s what you can't put a price on that we value most.

The Mulberry has received the industry’s highest professional designation, the BC Seniors Living Association’s Seal of Approval.
Where do you need to be today? Errands to run? Our weekly resident shuttle service takes you to and from local appointments.
Or how about a trip to White Rock for ice cream? The Mulberry residents attend the symphony, have dinner out, and picnic in the park – all in the company of good friends.
Let’s go out together. Phone for your personal tour.
Thank You!
It is not one person or one building that makes an A-List community. It’s our residents and their families, our staff, our business partners, the City of Burnaby and the community groups which we support.
Thank you for making our community a wonderful place to live and work!
