You’re never too old to playwith Lego. And if you’re goodenough, you’ll get paid to do it.

This is the lasting message fromAllan Corbell, president of VancouverLego Club, who was part of the10-man team who designed a Legodisplay for the Port Moody StationMuseum.

Not your average Lego building,this plastic brick town spans 12 feetlong and 12 feet wide, complete witha moving train and replica of the PortMoody train station and sawmill.

The design was inspired by the125th anniversary of the first trans-Canada train to arrive on July 4,1886.

“It’s a fantastic toy, and fantastic

to begin using for sculpting,” Corbellsaid. “We just hope people come outand enjoy what we’ve done.”

Port Moody Station Museum co-ordinator Rebecca Clarke was morethan happy with the results and saidthe public has felt the same.

“It’s been very popular so far,” shesaid in an e-mail interview. “Everyonehas loved it and they generally stay towatch the train go around and look atall the small details for quite a while.”

This is the first time the museumhas used any Lego in a showcase.

Their experience with theVancouver Lego Club has been great,Clarke said, as they custom designedthe display for them.

Corbell said they used old picturesfrom the 1920s and ’30s to truly cap-ture the spirit of the time with theirdisplay.

In terms of actual size, this is con-

sidered a mid-sized project for theclub. Other displays have includedones as long as 25 feet and as tall assix feet.

The club averages three to fourLego displays a year, and this one thepublic can enjoy for the rest of thesummer.

Corbell hopes the display providesa sense of history, as well as inspireskids and adults to take up buildingwith Lego.

Young children — and Lego fanswho are more young at heart — look-ing to see the display can head downto the Port Moody Station Museumbetween 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. untilAug. 31.

11A Coquitlam salsa

dancer handsdefeat off to hiscompetitors on

the world stage.

From 24 to 19, and from19 to one. And one is wherethings will remain for theforeseeable future.

Coquitlam council passedthe first three readings of arezoning application Mondaythat will make way for theconstruction of a 19-storeyhighrise tower at the cornerof Austin Avenue and BlueMountain Street. At thesame time, council also put amoratorium of sorts on futurehighrise development requestsuntil the local neighbourhoodplan is re-examined specific-ally with respect to buildingheights.

Planned for 955 AustinAve., the tower is proposed forthe same location pitched bythe Beedie Group as recentlyas May, when the developerwas planning a 24-storeytower. A public hearing at thattime elicited staunch com-munity opposition, and theissue was ultimately referredback to staff to work with theBeedie Group to find somemiddle ground.

On Monday — the lastcouncil meeting before thesummer break — that idea ofa middle ground was passed.Councillors Lou Sekora, BrentAsmundson and Barrie Lynchvoted against the revampedproposal.

“To me it’s frightening,to be able to put somethingthrough on July 25 — thelast day of the month, the last

meeting … I think it’s ter-rible,” Sekora said.

Beedie’s original plan calledfor the building to be up to195 feet in height (59 metres),and the revised proposalshaved off 43 feet (13 metres).

In an interview Tuesday,Asmundson said he felt asthough the plan was back-ward: the community consul-tation should have taken placefirst, followed by any develop-ment after the fact.

“My issue was that passingthe tower and then going toconsultation is not what Ifelt the public was expectingfrom us after the public hear-ing,” he said. “I felt that wewere not following throughon what we said at the publichearing.”

Monday’s vote on thetower is rooted in a largerdiscussion, the city’s AustinHeights neighbourhood plan.Endorsed unanimously bycouncil in April after almostthree years of prep work, theplan is meant to accommo-date 5,000 new residents and50,000 additional feet of floorspace in the next two decades.The details of the plan set outproposed land-use strategiesand how to incorporate ahigh-density, mixed-use com-mercial core with the smaller-scale housing choices.

Included in that plan wasthe provision for highrisetowers.

Coun. Mae Reid, chairof the land-use committee,defended the move and sug-gested that revitalizationwithout highrise towers couldbe next to impossible.

“If you were a developerand paying money every day,interest on your funds thathave gone out to do all thisstuff that they’ve done so far

For 11 years Hong Lee has ownedand operated the Jiffy Lube oil changeshop in Coquitlam along Clarke Road.

He and his four employees haveknown for four years about the pos-sible expansion of the SkyTrain, andwith the new Evergreen Line plans inmotion, the idea is quickly turninginto reality.

“I co-operated withall TransLink requestsfor my business evalu-ation,” Lee wrote in aletter to The NOW. “Ibelieved that I wouldbe treated justly in thismatter as I have given[my] co-operation to[the] Evergreen Lineproject.”

But Lee recentlyheard back fromTransLink and wasshocked at the amounthe said he was offered:$50,000.

“I almost invested $300,000 in thatbusiness,” Hong explained. “I wasembarrassed when I heard that.”

Although nothing is set in stone,Lee explained the $50,000 was notofficial. However, just hearing thatnumber prompted him to resendhis request for the amount he paidwhen he first entered the business:$300,000.

He also started a petition to stopwhat he calls unjust business lost dueto the Evergreen Line, and even went

out to protest outside of the projectoffice on Barnet Highway.

“I cannot close my business withoutcompensation,” he said. “What can Ido to afford me and my family leav-ing?”

With that money he says he’ll beable to purchase a new business lotand go on with his life.

Without it, he doesn’t know whatto do.

Kate Trotter, B.C. public affairs offi-cer for the Ministry of Transportationand Infrastructure, said the govern-ment is working closely with 145property owners and is purchasing thelots at its fair market value.

“Negotiations started early so thatbusinesses are given plenty of noticeand time to adjust to the change,”

Trotter said via e-mail.

On the EvergreenLine’s informationsheet, it states com-pensation is based onfair market value. Italso states minimizingof disruption, disloca-tion and inconven-ience when reasonablypossible, and nego-tiation of consensualagreements wheneverreasonably possible.

“The ministry hasspent two years work-

ing on early property acquisition,design and engineering to get readyfor construction of the EvergreenLine,” Trotter said.

To date, the province has purchasedabout 50 properties of a total 145.Property costs are anticipated to be$180 million.

Lee is hopeful the province willlisten to his plea and give him enoughcompensation to start another busi-ness, but he hasn’t heard back since.

“I believed thatI would be treated

justly in this matter.”

Hong LeeJiffy Lube franchise owner

Coquitlam gears up on Lougheed cycling lanes

Optimism was temperedwith a bit of cynicism Monday,as Coquitlam councillorsexamined how to improve cyc-list safety on what’s universal-ly acknowledged as the mostdangerous stretch of road forbikes in the city.

Council unanimouslyendorsed further talks andplanning with the provincearound building a bike pathon the Riverview Hospitalgrounds at Monday’s engin-

eering committee meeting.Intended to alleviate

safety issues for cyclists alongLougheed Highway, the pathwould stretch over 2.8 kilo-metres along the west side ofthe highway and would con-nect to the signalled crossingat Orchid Drive and ColonyFarm.

“We have some climatechange goals that we haveto meet, and if we can’t putin proper cycling infrastruc-ture, we’re never going toget people out of their cars— especially those who couldget out of their cars who are

really, really scared about thatcorridor,” said Coun. SelinaRobinson.

Staff presented the com-mittee with three differentoptions for the path, thoughthe other two weren’t viewedas favourably due to topog-raphy, connectivity, land-useissues and environmental con-cerns. A route along Riverviewwas preferred because it’s dir-ect, relatively flat and parallelto the highway.

“For cycling safety, thisis probably the No. 1 areathat needs to be fixed inCoquitlam,” said com-

mittee chair Coun. BrentAsmundson.

The proposed price tag ofthe route, taking into accountland and construction costs,has been pegged at $4 million.The price tag, and whetherthe province will allow useof Riverview land, remainedpoints of contention.

“There is no way thatthe taxpayers of this regionshould have to pay for landsthat are owned by the prov-ince for a bike path — that’sjust totally asinine,” saidCoun. Mae Reid.

In briefing the committee

on the proposal, engineeringmanager Bill Susak noted thatthe best-case scenario wouldbe to simply widen the high-way to accommodate a bikepath, although that plan couldcost “in the tens of millions.”

“This is probably the mostchallenging area for cyclingarea for connectivity,” he said.

Monday’s report will gobefore council in the fall atsome point, and from there,the city must negotiate withthe province about use of theland and who will fund theproject.

on this, you’re trying to getit back to working as quickas you can. It’s business.Business doesn’t stop becausewe go on vacation,” she said.

Mayor Richard Stewartechoed those sentiments, andsuggesting that holding upthe highrise application wasalmost a disservice to all thoseinvolved in drafting the neigh-bourhood plan.

“I think we did a reallyexcellent job over the courseof two and half years ofengaging the public, theAustin Heights businesscommunity and also a wholebunch of residents on estab-lishing the community’svision,” he said.

“It was the community’svision that had been adoptedunanimously a number ofmonths earlier. And thenhaving done that, you havesent a signal to the propertyowners and the businesses inthe community that this isthe vision that the commun-ity has adopted. I think it isimportant to, as much as pos-sible, then support that visionas you move forward becauseyou have to, I think.”

He also defended voting on

the matter at the last sched-uled council meeting untilSept. 6.

“This was the longest timewe’ve ever taken in consider-ing an issue between the pub-lic hearing in May and secondand third reading in July,” hesaid. “We were very deliber-ate in making certain that wetook the time necessary tofind a solution here.”

Although the matter hasn’tbeen finalized, Monday’s votedoes represent both closureand a new beginning for ErinDavidson, executive direc-tor of the Austin HeightsBusiness ImprovementAssociation.

Having been a part of theneighbourhood plan from thestart, she gauged the projecton a number of differentmerits: parking, traffic flow,building quality, landscaping,

visual esthetics and height.She supports the tower

height and location, andhopes it will lead to an overallrejuvenation of the area.

“There was a highly col-laborative effort to get to thisend point and decide that thedensity would be along thatcommercial core,” she said.“Hundreds and hundreds ofpeople seemed to be able tosupport that vision and makeit work. The first tower, Ithink will be the most chal-lenging to introduce thatconcept of density … I thinkpeople will appreciate thattower a year after it’s com-pleted and it does become partof the neighbourhood.”

The fourth and final bylawreading, and issuance of apotential development permit,is expected this fall.

SHARE fills semi with41,305 pounds of food

It’s official. The Tri-Cities came out in fullforce to the Food Bank Fill Up event andhelped SHARE load up an entire semi-trailerworth of food.

Their goal was to raise 40,000 pounds ofnon-perishables to help the 900 Tri-Cities fam-ilies they donate to every week, and they leftwith 41,305.

The record for raising the most food in 12hours was set after a little girl named VanessaVisentin and her dad Liam Visentin ploppedthe last amount down into the donation bin.

Martin Wyant, CEO of SHARE, said it wasterrific to see the response from the commun-ity — but it didn’t come as a shock.

“I’m not surprised, because when we’ve

asked in the past they’ve always comethrough,” he said.

Wyant said volunteers and staff are sortingthrough all the donations, but he can say forsure they are in better shape than they werethis time last year.

To see their target be met and then somewas great for Wyant, and he had a couplethings to say for the people who helped out.

“Just a real big thanks,” he said. “Once again[the community] showed how generous andhow thoughtful they are.”

The event ran on Thursday, July 21 from 9a.m. to 9 p.m. in the Coquitlam Centre parkinglot. Save-On Foods donated a semi-trailer toload the food, and set up a tent to cook hot-dogs and sell items with all donations going toSHARE.

Volunteers lined the streets heaving, weigh-ing and loading up food bins into the trailer.

The tax revolt that appears to be simmeringin this province has the potential to turn theprovincial political scene on its head, with ser-

ious ramifications for our two main parties and theinterest groups that support them.

It can be argued that, at some point,voters will feel “enough is enough” andlash out in anger at the so-called estab-lishment, which can include both thegovernment and the Opposition.

I can’t help but wonder whetherwe’re reaching that point now.

The latest example of this angerabout taxes can be seen with reaction tothe proposed two-cents-a-litre gas taxin Metro Vancouver to help pay for thenew Evergreen rapid transit line to theTri-Cities.

Now, we’ve seen protests against gas taxes before.They usually feature a lot of bluster and hot air atthe beginning, before dying down as motorists adaptamid constantly fluctuating gas price changes.

But the gas tax proposal comes after more thantwo years of public dialogue (and anger) over theharmonized sales tax, so the electorate has beenfocused on the issue of taxation.

Added to this potent mix is lingering resentmentover ferry fare increases, property tax hikes andlooming hikes to B.C. Hydro and ICBC rates.

And this time a political party has seized upon theissue. While both the B.C. Liberals and the NDP sup-port the proposed gas tax, the new leader of the B.C.Conservative Party has jumped into the fray.

John Cummins has blasted the tax, and has pro-posed the mayors who are pushing it on motorists

should go back and shave one per cent off their ownmunicipal budgets.

His proposal has been ridiculed and condemnedby the mayors (Vancouver Mayor Gregor Robertsonsaid Cummins’ idea was “ignorant”), who think their

own budgets are already pared to thebone.

But I suspect Cummins is more intune with public opinion than the mayorsor the two established political parties.

Does anyone really believe it is abso-lutely unthinkable and impossible to cutspending at the municipal level?

Spending has climbed at a faster rateat the municipal level, compared to theprovincial or federal levels. One big rea-son for that are the incredibly generouscollective agreements municipal govern-

ments have signed over the years with various pub-lic-sector unions.

The benefits packages for unionized employeesgenerally dwarf anything seen in the private sector,and therefore are much more expensive to pay for.Look for Cummins (and others) to zero in on thiskind of issue in the months ahead.

This is where things can get sticky for the NDPand the party’s supporters. A tax revolt, if it takes off,does no favours for the political left in this province.

If governments are forced to cut spending (orreduce the rate of increase) rather than raise taxes orother fees, the ones who get squeezed the most arepublic-sector employees and government programs,which often involve social programs.

The NDP can always revert to raising taxes onbusinesses and corporations, but that simply reinfor-

ces the lingering impression among some peoplethat the party is anti-business, which is not a viablelong-term political strategy.

Cummins will continue to fan the flames of a taxrevolt and, as he does, he will build a public profile.When the election comes, he will no doubt stealvotes from the B.C. Liberals, perhaps enough to givethe NDP an election win.

But Cummins could also eat into NDP support aswell, drawing on anti-government voters who havesided with New Democrats in the past.

If the anti-tax sentiments out there persist, theycould end up making life miserable for whicheverparty forms government — whether it’s the NDP orthe B.C. Liberals.

And that, in turn, could also prove disastrous forthose whose paycheques are funded by taxpayers.

•••

It should be a no-brainer.This is why the government should speed up the

process to reappoint Mary-Ellen Turpel-Lafond asthis province’s independent children’s representa-tive. The NDP wants her back, and presumably theB.C. Liberals do as well.

So hopefully her reappointment doesn’t getbogged down in procedural bureaucracy. Turpel-Lafond is owed some quick certainty on this ques-tion.

I think the Port Moody Public Library deserves tobe recognized for the exceptional summer readingprogram that they present every year atthis time.

Not only does this program encour-age children to read, but it also rec-ognizes their efforts and positivelyreinforces this recognition with stickerson their reading records, a public cere-mony and awarding of medals at thecompletion of the program.

This requires the time and personal attention on

the part of the staff.The program also involves three special programs

for children that include presentationsby a musician, the horticultural stafffrom the city and a ventriloquist.

I am very grateful that the fundingand the dedication of the staff has madethis opportunity available for my grand-children.

It’s not that hard. Reaching out to a stran-ger, be it holding open a door for someonewith his or her hands full or letting some-

one go ahead in the grocery line.Or right up to saving a life.We call them random acts of kindness and

they are the kinds of randomness people wel-come in their lives.

This week the community learned aboutthe heroic actions of four Lower Mainlanddrivers who helped a woman who was suf-fering a massive heart attack while driving inCoquitlam.

Further down the road, people tried tohelp at the scene of a crash in Kootenay Parkbetween a tractor trailer and a vehicle carry-ing a family of four.

In one case, a life was saved — at least longenough for the trained professionals to takeover. In the other, four lives were lost despiteefforts of passersby — but the fact that peoplewere so willing to help may give at least abit of comfort to the victims’ survivors. Thedecency of people around us always tends tohave an uplifting influence, even in the dark-est circumstances.

What the heroes did in those circumstanceswas somewhat more expansive than theopportunities for random acts of kindness thatwe normally encounter.

But the contagious feeling of goodness thatwe can engender with a simple act of beingnice to other people works at every level.

And on top of that, we’ve never found any-one who felt regret at having helped someoneelse. On the contrary, all reports indicate thatit feels great.

So the next time you see someone in needof a helping hand, reach out. You may notalways be saving a life, but you’ll certainly betouching a heart — maybe even your own.

Tax dollars flushed awayRe: “Pit stops needed for Evergreen,”

Friday, July 22.It must have been a slow night in council

chambers in order for them to vote on some-thing they have no say in.

Sure, keep the washrooms unlocked, butwho will have to maintain them? Surely nottransit, but Coquitlam. Once again our tax dol-lars are going to waste.

Perhaps the councillors should stick to side-walks and sewers.

Pesticide ban plays it safeRe: “Concentration paints imperfect pesti-

cide picture,” letter to the editor, WednesdayJuly 20.

Glyphosate used in commercial pesticideproducts is mixed with inert ingredients tomake it more effective at killing plants.

Studies show that these products can be farmore toxic than pure glyphosate. I was toldrecently by a local garden store that glyphosateis so safe you can drink it. Japanese research-ers analyzing suicides have found that drinkingthree-quarters of a cup of commercial glyphos-ate can be fatal. Lesser doses have resulted insevere health problems.

Regarding products containing 2-4D, wasn’tthis one-half of the recipe used in AgentOrange?

Although Mr. Kyle states that these herbi-cides do not persist in the environment,studies from Sweden, the World HealthOrganization and the U.S. environmental pro-tection agency state otherwise.

Excuse me if I do not wish to expose mygranddaughter, other family members, petsand wildlife to these products.

This debate is about the use of cosmetic(non-essential) pesticides, so why not take aprecautionary approach and use safer alterna-tives?

Personally, I would like to thank theCanadian Cancer Society, the CanadianAssociation of Physicians for the Environmentand the growing number of other health-related organizations for makingnon-industry research on this issueavailable.

I am pleased that Coquitlamcouncil has finally requested thatits staff draw up a bylaw to banthese pesticides.

It is now time for the provinceto follow the example of Quebec, Ontario andNova Scotia and ban the sale of them. Pleasecontact your provincial MLA and urge action.

HST more efficient taxWhile I do perhaps share some frustration

with the way the HST was brought in, as taxpolicy goes, it is unquestionably a significantand vast improvement over the old PST andGST system. Ignoring, the obvious shortcom-ings of the old system and the obvious bene-fits of the HST with just one tax departmentinstead of two, the $1.6 billion in financingprovided by Ottawa (that we have to repay if Ivote yes) and a more transparent tax, the neteffect will be lower overall taxes and a muchmore efficient tax regime — a win-win.

Some see this as a tax that benefits business-es only. While there is some definite benefitfor business, not all businesses are mega-large,faceless corporations. In fact, 98 per cent of allbusinesses in B.C. are small businesses — anda full 56 per cent of all businesses are classi-fied as “self-employed without paid help.” This

is the mom and pop grocery store, the self-employed electrician, the one-person daycareand the graphic artist working from home.

That is 443,800 self-employment jobs inB.C., of which 302,000 (68 per cent) are againwithout paid help. These are not large, soul-less corporations. These are B.C. families andjobs. Last year, self-employment accounted for

19.7 per cent of total employmentin B.C., the highest in the entirecountry. We are, it would seem, anentrepreneurial lot here in B.C.

As a small business owner, I canattest first-hand as to the benefitsof the HST. Our business is pri-marily in Ontario and B.C. Instead

the minimum 12 remittances each year (fourfor B.C. PST, four for Ontario PST and four forGST) and three tax returns each year under theold system (one for B.C. PST, one for OntarioPST and one for GST), we now just have fourremittances and one tax return each year forHST — just one account on our books toreconcile and just one tax department to dealwith. Nice!

Under the old system, if we did more busi-ness in other provinces like Manitoba andSaskatchewan, we would have yet additionalprovincial PST for each to contend with — animpediment to growth and jobs. It’s almost likeeach province is a foreign country.

A friend told me the other day he was votingYes as he did not like the HST on his restau-rant bills. It is unfortunately these “new” taxesthat many seem to be inevitably transfixed on.What my friend did not seem to grasp though,was that for every new bill to which HSTapplies, there are 10 other bills where the taxrate will be reduced from 12 to 10 per cent,resulting in a net tax saving.

As a chartered accountant, it was commonlyfelt that the PST was the least understood and

the most dysfunctional of all the sales taxesthat we endure, both past and present. Doingaway with the PST is a quantum improve-ment. Dropping the rate to 10 per cent seemsto appeal to people’s sense of fairness (even ifwe are running a deficit budget) and perhapsarguably the right thing to do under the cir-cumstances. If the government did want toraise taxes (though they apparently will not benow when the HST drops to just 10 per cent)the other option is through income taxes. TheHST is a consumption tax and at least I havea choice whether to spend it on restaurants ornot. With an income tax, I have no choice asthe money never even gets into my pocket inthe first place. I’ll take a consumption tax overan income tax any day.

I will also be voting No to going back to theold PST-GST system. The HST means a moreefficient tax system, lower taxes and more jobsin B.C.

Bill Nichols is a unique person. For years,and nearly every day, he has gotten up andgone for a stroll into Rocky Point Park.

While enjoying the natural beauty during hismeandering, he casually picks up litter. Mostnotably pop cans.

But he doesn’t ditch the can in the recyclingbin. Instead, he began stockpiling them atNoons Creek Hatchery. Every couple of weeks,hatchery employees would drive him and hiscans to a recycling depot.

Might seem like a small project, until youtally the can total at 60,000.

“Today he’s raised $3,078.23,” said DaveBennie of Noons Creek Hatchery.

Yes, more than $3,000 from other people’sgarbage — and he went on to prove one man’strash is another man’s treasure.

With this money, Nichols has awarded twovolunteers at the Noons Creek Hatchery whoare also students at BCIT and the University ofB.C., respectively.

Michael Vigurs and Zakhar Kazmiruk arethe first official recipients of the Bill NicholsBursary, receiving $1,500 each to be used intheir schooling.

“His individual commitment of providing abursary is a thoughtful and generous act andone that is appreciated by all of our volunteersand members of the public that use this smallpart of Rocky Point Park,” said Sandra Niven,spokesperson for the hatchery.

Of the many volunteers at the hatchery,what separates the bursary recipients is thededication they have to the cause and the goalsahead of them.

Kazmiruk has been in Canada for only 22months, having immigrated from Russia. Inhis short time here, Kazmiruk has become anaward-winning student at UBC studying earthand ocean sciences. He’s volunteered at thehatchery helping to raise salmon, collect watersamples, train volunteers and more.

Vigurs is a student of BCIT in the fishwildlife and recreation, renewable resourcesprogram. He one day hopes to work in ahatchery with stream and river restoration.He’s put in more than 130 volunteer hoursat the hatchery and adopted a stretch of theCoquitlam River, where he removes litter andhundreds of kilograms of invasive plants.

Cheques were handed out to both men inJuly from Nichols himself earlier this month.

Walk aims to boost donors

It’s been three years sinceJudith Thompson laid downin her hospital bed awaitingsurgery. Three years sinceshe saw her husband’s healthdeteriorate. Three years sinceshe offered up her own kidneyto save the man she married.

And she’s never lookedback.

“It was fabulous, on bothour parts,” Thompson, thelocal co-ordinator for theTri-Cities Kidney Walk, saidon donating a kidney to herhusband.

“We were taken very wellcare of. A few days later wewere out of the hospital. A fewdays after that we were shop-ping at Costco.”

Thompson’s husband, CarlWheaton, is one of the luckyones. Out of the estimated145,000 kidney patients in theprovince, his wife was able tohelp save him from a life ofweekly hospital visits to usea dialysis machine — some-thing many more have tosuffer.

Dialysis machines aredesigned to clean out theblood — what a kidney issupposed to do. A patientvisits the clinic typically threetimes a week and hooks up tothe machine for five to eighthours.

Without them, the bodywould quickly fall into a con-stant state of illness, or worse.

“Often people become ill,are hospitalized throughout

the year, infections and otherhealth issues begin,” sheexplained. “You don’t feelwell, and it’s not a good qual-ity of life. But for most folks,it’s their only option. It’stheir one option to keep themgoing until an organ becomesavailable.”

If not, the dialysis machineswon’t do the job for long.

“Dialysis is not a cure,”Thompson said. “Most peoplewill not live the wait … forthe organ.”

This is why Thompson andthe Kidney Foundation ofCanada aim to increase thenumber of registered organdonors in B.C. from 17 percent to 85 per cent — thenumber of residents whosaid they would donate theirorgans.

To do so, they came upwith a provincial walk. It’s the

fourth-annual event for B.C.,and the third-annual walk forthe Tri-Cities on Aug. 21. Theevent takes place at 10 a.m. inLafarge Park.

Thompson said the walk isnot a marathon by any means,but a nice five-kilometrestroll. There will be enter-tainment, plenty of familyactivities and awareness willsurround the kidney healthbenefits of exercise, reducingsalt intake and quitting smok-ing.

PoCo waives fees after garbage glitch unearthed

A group of Port Coquitlamresidents won’t be facing whatthey considered unreasonablegarbage collection fees aftercouncil made a decision towaive thousands of dollars ofretroactive charges.

Council agreed unanimous-ly on Monday night to elimin-ate two years of back-chargesfor 87 homes, after a record-keeping glitch caused billinginformation to be lost datingas far back as 1989.

“Billing discrepanciesoccur from time to time inany organization,” said PortCoquitlam acting mayorCoun. Michael Wright, in arelease.

“While we must addressthese discrepancies to ensurethe financial stability of ourcity, we should do so in a rea-sonable and fair manner.”

Residents at Willow GlenEstates, a 25-unit complex,said they approached the cityto take part in an eco-friendlyfood-scrap composting pro-gram.

They were told instead thatan upgrade to the city’s digitalbilling system discovered theyhad been getting free garbagedisposal for years.

In June, the city decidedto charge each owner threeyears worth of fees — $530each — to recoup the losses.Owners who bought withinthe past three years wouldonly have been charged fromthe time they took possessionof their property.

The tax also could be paidin three instalments, but thatwould be hard for a quarter ofthe strata members who areon fixed incomes.

“We don’t have a problempaying for the current year,but they haven’t been able toshow us anything in writing,”strata-council president ClintGrayson, said earlier.

“They’re just picking thetwo previous years out of theair, it seems.”

After public feedback, citystaff recommended to coun-cil to waive two years of theretroactive billing.

Port Coquitlam councilagreed on Monday, explainingin the release that the needfor fairness, consistency andclarity motivated the decision,which will cost the city about$27,000 in lost fees.

The City of Port Coquitlamwill provide refunds to those

who already paid the retro-active bills.

A software upgrade shouldprevent a repeat of the prob-

lem, and a new “transparency”policy will be discussed at an

upcoming council meeting,according to the release.

The Scene

So he thinks he can dance?No. He knows he can dance. Justcheck the trophy room.

Coquitlam has a world-classsalsa dance champion in its midstwith Alfonso Caldera.

This dance professional recentlyreturned from Portland, takinghome his third world championshipfrom the sixth-annual Portland SalsaCongress with his partner and for-mer student Jessica Shatzko.

This notch under his dancingbelt humbled Caldera, and he gavefull credit to his partner for pullingthrough despite massive setbacks.

“Jessica broke her foot in thequalifying round,” Caldera said.“Because I did a move where I throwher in the air, and when she lands,I catch her. She still puts her footdown, and it broke. She still finishedit and told me at the end that shethought she had broken her foot.”

Caldera said he was blown awaywhen he found out she poweredthrough — especially in a dancecompetition where the strength ofyour legs are essential.

“I couldn’t believe that she coulddo it,” he said. “She’s never backeddown. She was always pumped. Shenever, for an instant, thought ofquitting.”

Shatzko, 17, who lives in Mission,went on to win the competition withCaldera at her side.

The two champions weren’talways on the same levelthough, as Shatzko came toCaldera as a newbie.

Through a year of training,Caldera mentored her into thedancer she is today throughhis school, Bravo DanceCompany.

“I’ve been teaching for roughly10 years,” Caldera said.

It started off as private lessonsamong friends. But being a native ofNicaragua, where salsa was “in hisblood,” Caldera quickly turned hisprivate passion into full-blown publiclessons.

“Salsa is my only addiction,”Caldera admitted. “I love teachingpeople. Especially after how theyturn out at the end, you know? Notonly do they learn how to dance, butsalsa, or any type of dance I would

say, is something that gives you con-fidence.”

And despite his ongoing teaching,Caldera can’t stayfar awayfrom

pushing himself and competing,such as the one in Portland.

But it wasn’t all sunshine andrainbows. Caldera came to this

country 21 years ago never havingtested his dancing in a profes-

sional environment.He knew he was good,but he didn’t know

just how good.So, like any good

dance movie por-trays, he

took his moves to the clubs.“It started out as social dancing

and then they started putting oncompetitions locally,” he said. “So Istarted competing, and I started win-ning all the competitions.”

Caldera said salsa just comes nat-urally to him, and most wouldn’targue.

He promises to continue to teachand to compete for as long as he can.

As for Shatzko, well, she’s got hersights on the So You Think You Can

Dance, Canada? TV show — justas soon as she turns 18 next

year.“In my opinion,

she’s probably goingto win it,” Calderasaid.

Family

Taking care of caregiversWell summer hasn’t exactly gone to

plan so far. Like many of you, I’mdisappointed constantly as the sun

disappears and the rain hits again. Luckily I’mvery much a go-with-the-flow kind of person,so we’re making the best of every-thing and of course, as a mom, it’snot really about me, it’s all aboutthe kids — and they’re happy, soit’s all good.

But therein lies the source of thelatest chaos that bestowed our fam-ily last week: it’s not about me. I’msure I’m in good company of othermoms when it comes to leavingmyself to last or just plain forget-ting about me. I know I can be bad— regularly forgetting to feed myself lunchcompletely, despite diligently packing threelunches first thing in the morning for the restof my clan. It’s not good, not healthy, but ithappens too often.

Last Friday it was a similar story as I packedour trailer for a weekend away. The kids werehome and so we did all eat lunch togetherthat day, but in between the trips in and outto the trailer, I kept getting the kids drinks orsnacks, but I didn’t remember to grab anythingelse for myself. Arriving at the campsite laterthat evening, we were delighted to meet upwith some friends that we hadn’t seen for acouple of years (other than the odd hello at thesupermarket) and we quickly got straight intoour weekend — my beverage of choice being alemon vodka cooler. Literally just one.

Fast forward to Saturday morning and therelaxed, easy-going, glorious evening had givenway to a grey, rainy, very wet morning anda mommy with a migraine. By lunch, I hadvomited up pain medications twice and knew I

needed help, so daddy and our friends had thefun of entertaining the kids in pouring rain,while mommy took a trip to the local hospitalwhere I was declared dehydrated and given twobags of saline, together with other meds.

Needless to say that it wasn’tour best camping trip to date, butI have been trying much harder tolook after myself as well as every-body else this week. I was verycareful to stop and make myselflunch while the kids were at day-care and summer camp for threedays and have probably drank morewater (well, usually Ribena, to behonest) in a week than I did in allof June.

I also got a timely call from a friend askingif I wanted to go to a zumba class with her, soThursday evening I tried out zumba for thefirst time. It wasn’t pretty. An hour later I wasvery much reminded that as well as failing tonourish myself properly, the only exercise Itend to do these days is chasing the kids andthat tends to involve raised blood pressurerather than a raised heart rate, so likely notreally helping to keep me healthy either.

I was horribly unco-ordinated, gasping forair at times (and believe it or not, did forgetto take a water bottle), but had a fabulouslyenjoyable time dancing my butt off to someawesome music with a (thankfully) forgivingand very fun group of ladies. As somebodyprone to giggling at the best of times, I alsohadn’t laughed so much in ages. It was great.

I promise to start putting myself a littlehigher up the to-do list, but in the meantimeat least they say laughter is the best medicine— I think I need it. I may also be off lemonvodka coolers for a while.

your jointsW ith another winter season

behind us, thousands ofgolf–starved Canadians are makinga beeline to the fairways. But is itpossible to play if you have arthritis?Golf is an adaptable activity thatincreases strength, mobility andrange of motion. It also improvesbalance and coordination andcan help maintain a healthy bodyweight.To ensure that you’re notputting additional stress on yourjoints as you aim for that hole in one,The Arthritis Society recommendsthe following tips:

• Use clubs with lightweightgraphite shafts tohelp absorb shockbetter.

• Build up the gripsize on your clubswith tape to helpyou hold themmore easily.

• Always stretch andwarm up properlybefore you play.

• Always use teesto avoid strikingthe ground and

jarring your joints.• Use a softer ball with a higher

spin rate.• Wear comfortable walking shoes

or golf shoes without spikes.You may also want to wearcushioning in your shoes.

• Take only the clubs you will useand pull your clubs on a cartrather than carrying them.

Giving up a run early is not the usualrecipe for success.

But the Coquitlam Reds demonstrat-ed Saturday that if answered in kind— and then some — an early deficitcan be a useful motivator.

The Reds swept the North ShoreTwins in their final eight series toadvance to the B.C. Premier BaseballLeague’s Final Four.

Coquitlam cruised to an 11-4 winin Game 1 Saturday morning, and fol-lowed that with a tighter, more typical3-1 decision.

“They were different games, and itwas nice to see us swing the bats likewe did [in Game 1],” said manager KyleWilliams.

Surrendering the first run, the hometeam replied in the bottom of the firstwith a five-run barrage, includingcatcher Brent Foreman’s bases loadedsingle.

In the fifth with a four-run lead,the squad’s bats got productive again— first with Steve Kandborg’s clutch

two-run double, followed by outfielderMax Hollingworth’s fourth home run ofthe season.

Hollingworth’s moon shot was losthalfway up the trees over the left fieldfence.

“It was just crushed. It was a 3-and-0pitch where I gave him the green lightand he hit it.”

Starting pitcher Matt Trimble, whilenot at his sharpest, put down a polishedsix-plus innings of work, surrenderingfour runs on seven hits, while fanningfive.

Lead-off hitter Darren Honeysett wasa perfect three-for-three, with two runsscored and two runs batted in. Rightfielder Greg Labranche posted two hits.

The Reds clinched the berth to NatBailey-hosted Final Four with the 3-1 win in the second tilt, when DylanRemenyk tossed a complete game andonly gave up the game’s initial run.

In the fifth inning with two out andthe bases loaded, Mitchell Jackman sin-gled home a run and Labranche walkedin another to give Coquitlam the lead.

Hollingworth went 2-for-2 and TylerYorko was 1-for-2 with two runs scored.

Now the team’s focus turns to Nat

Bailey, where the league’s four final-ists will square off starting on Friday.Coquitlam will open against theVictoria Mariners.

Williams said the main aim will beto get his pitchers in order for a seriesof must-win games. Should they makeit to the final, it will come down to theteam’s best remaining pitcher available.

The double-knockout tourney putsthe team that wins its first two gamesinto a final match-up with the next-bestrival, needing only to win once.

“We’re going to run them out one-two-three,” Williams said of his top-three hurlers — southpaws Trimble,Remenyk and Jeff Heidema. “We needto start the tournament with a winbecause if you lose the first one, thenyou’ve got to win four straight to win(it all).

“Langley is the only team who can dothat, so we need to get a good jump.”

Coming off a second-place finish,and a 32-16 record, gives Coquitlamreason for optimism heading into thisweekend’s series.

One major hurdle for them will bethe Blaze, who owned first place untilthe last week in the regular season,

when a grievance filed by the Redsresulted in the Langley club beingstripped of 12 victories.

The sixth-ranked Blaze (25-23) alsoadvanced by sweeping Parksville. TheNo. 4-seeded Mariners (26-22) and No.1 Nanaimo Pirates (34-14) qualifiedMonday by winning their respectiveseries 2-1.

Prior to the playoff series, the teamreleased starting third baseman JordanVarga. The South Dakota University-bound slugger hit .268 over 43 games,with 18 runs batted in.

Williams said that an incident dur-ing last Tuesday’s 6-0 win over FraserValley forced his hand.

“It was my decision, a disciplinedecision and we’ll leave it at that,” themanager said.

Yorko has stepped in and taken overthe full-time hot corner duties.

• The Coquitlam junior Redlegshead into this weekend’s B.C. PremierJunior Baseball championship tourna-ment in Nanaimo with some momen-tum, ending the regular season on afour-game winning streak.

The club placed third overall with a31-13 record.

The Coquitlam jr. Adanacskick-started the B.C. JuniorA Lacrosse League playoffs infamiliar fashion — with ease.

The undefeated Adanacsare up 2-0 in their best-of-three semifinal series with theVictoria Shamrocks, followingtwo convincing victories on theweekend.

On Saturday, they crackedout seven unanswered goals enroute to an 18-4 win, and a daylater broke open a 4-2 gamewith 11 straight tallies in a 15-2 hammering.

Game 3 goes Saturday, 2:30p.m. at the Poirier SportsCentre.

Ben McIntosh led the wayoffensively with nine goals overthe two days, including fiveon Sunday. Travis Cornwall,meanwhile, racked up threegoals and six assists in theopener, and added five pointsin the second tilt.

Goalie Steve Fryer kickedout 59 shots over 108 minutes,while the Adanacs pelted the‘Rocks netminders with 97shots.

“We’ve been going hard,working hard, but we havesome little things we need towork on — little mistakes thatwill cost you later on, but we’rehappy with it,” said Cornwall.“[Victoria] probably will comeback with some new stuffbecause they have a week towork on it, but we’re just goingto focus on our game.”

Also collecting a bountyon the scoresheet were CaseyJackson, who followed up afive-point game with a goal andsix assists on Sunday. WesleyBerg has four goals and sevenassists after two games.

A fourth game, if necessary,would be played Sunday inVictoria.

Sr. A’s win in OTKevin Olson’s two over-

time goals Saturday kept theCoquitlam senior Adanacs’playoff hopes alive.

The late-season acquisitionscored twice in the span of 20seconds early in overtime tolead the Adanacs to a 10-9 winover the Nanaimo Timbermen.

The overtime win followedThursday’s 9-5 upset of first-place New Westminster, whereOlson tallied three times.

The 6-10 Adanacs visit thethird place Langley Thundertonight, needing at least a tieto stay in the playoff hunt.They close out the regularseason on Saturday, 7 p.m. athome against the Thunder.

TRAPPED: Coquitlam Reds’ first baseman Mitchell Jackman (No. 19) and second baseman Steve Kandborg catch a Victoria player in a rundown atfirst base during B.C. Premier Baseball League action last week. The Reds have advanced to the league’s Final Four championship, which startsFriday at Nat Bailey Stadium in Vancouver.

For one week in October size matters.


Coquitlam’s Soo-Bin Kim kepta consistent pace through thefirst three days of the Royale CupCanadian Women’s Amateur Golfchampionships in Duncan.

It was on the fourth day, how-ever, where the bounces went theother way.

Kim, 18, finished the CanadianAmateur championship in a four-way tie for 10th place at 302, eightstrokes back of winner RebeccaLee-Bentham.

Kim spent much of the four-day tournament among thetop-eight and pulled within two-strokes of the lead after a one-over-par 73 on Day 3.

However, the final day at theDuncan Meadows Golf Clubproved to be a rough patch thatdropped her from contention.

“I felt good going into the finalday, I didn’t feel any pressure andI just wanted to play defensively,stick to my game plan,” said Kim.

“I should definitely say that myshots were not very consistent, Ihad trouble with my irons. I justcouldn’t get it to where I wantedit.”

Kim posted two double bogiesand seven bogies on the day,while firing three birdies. Her bestround came on Day 2, where sherecorded five birdies en route toa par-72.

A year ago at the same tourna-ment, Kim cracked the top-30, sothis year’s result was a big stepforward despite the rough ending.

She opened with a round of 76on the 6,380-yard course.

In the end, the competitionwas a learning experience for theGleneagle grad, who is heading tothe University of Washington inSeptember on a golf scholarship.

“I always learn a lot from theCanadian Amateur, it’s a greatchance to play with older girls,players who are in Canadianuniversities and experienced ama-teurs … By playing [the CanadianWomen’s Amateur] I learn to bemore mature.”

It has proven to be a majordevelopment year for the Swan-ESet golfer, with improvementsshown after changing coaches.

“For two years everything feltthe same, same results … Thisyear my scores started gettingbetter after I changed my coach,changed my practice routine.”

Earlier in the month, Kimfinished four shots back of one-time Gleneagle teammate JenniferYang at the B.C. Junior Girlschampionship.

• Port Coquitlam’s AdamPayne fired a round of 68 to fin-ish second in the second stop ofthe Maple Leaf Junior Golf Tour’sMini Tour last week in Richmond.

The 13-year-old Payne, whogolfs out of the Vancouver GolfClub, was 10 strokes back ofRichmond’s James Chang, whoposted a red-hot round of 58 atMylora Golf Club. Coquitlam’sTrevor Good was one of the top-five prize winners.
