Tree experts Paul Buikema and John Gillespie (foreground), in front of the East Lawn building on the Riverview lands, discuss an evergreen tree that died. Many of the trees onthe Riverview lands were planted 100 years ago when the hospital property was first identified as the site for B.C.’s botanical garden. The arboretum, started by provincial bota-nist John Davidson in 1911, was eventually moved to UBC but the trees remain and have been added to over the years. In addition to a rich collection of non-native trees, such asginkos, Spanish chestnut, Serbian spruce and beechwood, the 244-acre site is lush with magnolias, rhododendrons and roses. Riverview Hospital is closing this summer afternearly 100 years of operation. The province has hired a consultant to conduct a heritage values study of the property. The tree walk was hosted by the Riverview HorticulturalCentre Society to mark 20 years of stewardship and advocacy on the property.

The bear was found tobe a healthy, mature maleand the reason for the at-tack is unknown, policereported. Conservationofficers are investigat-ing the incident and anecropsy will be doneto find a motive for theattack. “We don’t re-ally know for sure whatthe intentions of thebear were,” said Insp.Chris Doyle of the BCConservation Service.Investigators ruled outany nearby attractantssuch as food or garbage.

Doyle said the bearhad to be destroyed be-

cause a person was at-tacked on a residentialproperty and there wasno information leadingofficers to believe it wasa surprise encounter.

It’s not unusual forbears to be attracted tohot tub covers, said DrakeStephens, Coquitlam’sUrban Wildlife co-ordina-tor. In fact, two or threeare torn up every year inthe city by bears drawnto their smell, possiblybecause gasses releasedby decaying insulationsmells like bee hives.

But Stephens wouldn’tgo so far as to say plac-ing hot tubs near green-belts is a hazard.

Drake said he hasnever heard of such anunprovoked attack be-fore in the Tri-Cities anddidn’t want to commenton the Whistler inci-dent specifically. But hespeculated the bear wasfollowing its nose withthe intent of lunchingon the hot tub cover andwas surprised to findsomeone inside the tub.

This spring has beenone of the quietest startsto bear season in recentyears but local cities willstill be cracking downon people who leave outattractants or set theirgarbage out early.

In Port Coquitlam, 60fines were issued in Mayto homeowners who lefttheir garbage out andCoquitlam city workersare patrolling at night toensure garbage bylawsare adhered to.

Coquitlam’s UrbanWildlife co-ordinator,Drake Stephens, saidthe city wants to get theupper hand on bear at-tractants before warm

weather and hungerbring more bears to thearea.

“People need to knowthat nothing should beleft out the night before,”Stephens said — andthat includes recyclingbins. He recounted oneincident recently wherea bear feasted on a pea-nut butter container foran hour on someone’slawn because it wasn’tcompletely rinsed out.

Paula Jones, act-ing manager of bylawservices with the cityof PoCo, said 60 finescosting $150 each ($100if paid within 30 days)were handed out inlower Mary Hill on thesouth side as well asRiverwood Gate, Lincoln

Park, Clematis and CoastMeridian neighbour-hoods in the north.

Since then, Jones saidin an email, there hasbeen a “high degree ofcompliance” with theSolid Waste Bylaw.

In Port Moody, whichhas had as many bearcomplaints as Coquitlamthis year, council turneddown staff recommen-dations for commercialand industrial propertyowners to install bear-resistant bins. Councilmembers balked at the$3,000 public educationcost as well as an addi-tional $5,000 annually forbylaw enforcement.

With a cold start tospring and plenty ofnatural food, bears may

continue stay away fromurban neighbourhoods.Coquitlam’s Stephenspredicted fewer problemsthis year because sevenbears that might havebeen drawn to garbagewere taken to CritterCare Wildlife Society inLangley last year aftertheir mothers were shotfor getting into [email protected]– with files from Sarah Payne

Ayat Mahjar suf-fers from a disabilitythat leaves her unableto walk without help.Since the chair was sto-len last month, her fa-ther, Rushdi, has had tocarry her to a taxi cabevery morning to takeher to school.

The family, whichmoved to Canada fromIraq nine months ago,told reporters Thursdaythey are happy someonedonated a new chair.

“He feels very grate-ful for this person whois able to deliver thiswheelchair for hisdaughter,” said MagdyAttallah, a volunteer in-terpreter who translatedfor Rushdi. “He is veryhappy and he thanksthem a lot.”

The black wheelchairwas stolen from anapartment building at550 Cottonwood Ave. inCoquitlam on April 10but police are now goingpublic with the detailsof the crime after ex-hausting all leads.

The wheelchair wasgiven to the disabled girl

by the Red Cross Societyand it was stored un-derneath the stairs onthe ground floor of theapartment building. Lastmonth, the family discov-ered the char was miss-ing and Ayat has beenhouse-bound ever since.

A former civilianstaff member with theCoquitlam RCMP hasfiled a notice of civilclaim alleging she washarassed by her superi-ors.

Sherri Merritt, a45-year-old insurancedisclosure clerk em-ployed by the city, allegesthat she was harassed“in an ongoing andvengeful manner, whichisolated her within herworkplace.”

(Infor mation con-tained in a notice of civilclaim has not be provenin a court of law.)

According to thenotice of civil claim,Merritt had concernsabout the detachment’sAnalyst Review Section.She stated that mistakesmade by members in thesection could have en-dangered children, putpublic safety at risk andviolated the Privacy Act.

The claim states ha-rassment began aftershe was asked to correctsome of the issues sheobserved, a request thatseveral members of theprogram took as a threatto their positions, shealleges. When she com-plained about her treat-ment to superiors, shesaid her grievances werenot taken seriously.

“The RCMP has aparamilitary culture,which does not addresscomplaints of harass-ment very well,” TomBeasley, an employmentlitigation lawyer who isrepresenting Merritt,told The Tri-City News.

He points out that theplaintiff is not a mem-ber of the RCMP anddoes not have access toits internal adjudicationsystem. Even if she did,Beasley said the processis long and convoluted.

Issues first arose whenMerritt was required toundergo treatment forcancer, forcing her totake a medical leave lastfall. On her last day atwork before the leave,she deleted several docu-ments on her computer,files Beasley said weretemplates and spread-sheets. No informationwas lost, according tothe statement of civilclaim, and all protocolswere followed.

But less than a monthlater, police launched acriminal investigationagainst Merritt, allegingshe intentionally triedto disrupt and controlher office while on leave.Her security clearancewas suspended and shecould not return to workat the Coquitlam RCMPdetachment.

S h e w a s n e v e rcharged criminally but,according to the courtdocument, the Crownsent her a letter statingit would keep a note onfile about the incidentshould prosecutorschoose to pursue thematter in the future.

The notice of civil claimstates that the defen-dants used the criminalinvestigation to intimi-date the plaintiff andthreaten her livelihood.

Merritt, who success-fully underwent in-vitrofertilization and is ex-pecting a baby at the

end of August, said herdoctor is concerned thestress caused by her em-ployment issues is put-ting her baby at risk.

The defendants listedin the notice of civilclaim include the city ofCoquitlam, CoquitlamRCMP Supt. Claude

Wilcott, Ridge MeadowsRCMP Sgt. JenniferHyland and SusanMcCallum, a Crown law-yer in Port Coquitlamas well as the AttorneyGeneral of Canada, theMinister of Justice ofthe Province of B.C.

She is seeking gen-eral damages, specialdamages, loss of futureearning capacity andthe reinstatement ofher security clearanceand her employment atthe RCMP.

Cpl. Jamie Chung,spokesperson for theCoquitlam RCMP, saidmembers from the de-tachment would notcomment on the noticeof civil claim because itwas before the courts.

Dan MacDonald, thecommunications man-ager with the city ofCoquitlam, also said thecity would not be com-menting on the matter.

Infor mation con-tained in a notice ofcivil claim has not beproven in a court of law.The defendants have 21days from the time thedocument was filed [email protected]

RCMP harassment claimFirecracker, not bomb

A firecracker is being blamed for shuttingdown Como Lake Avenue between Baker andThermal Drive for several hours on Saturdayafternoon.

Coquitlam RCMP received a call shortlyafter noon June 2 from an area resident whosaid she found a package with the words“Tube Bomb” written on the side of it.

Police blocked traffic in the area and evacu-ated several homes before investigators wereable to determine that the explosive was rela-tively harmless.

“We wanted to err on the side of caution,”said Coquitlam RCMP Cpl. Jamie Chung.

After several hours, the streets were re-opened and residents were allowed to returnto their homes.

The firecracker, according to Chung, wasabout seven inches long and two inches indiameter.

“It is a pretty big firecracker,” he said. “Ihave never seen a firecracker like that before.”

Citadel Heights resi-dents are being asked tohelp Canada Post stopmailbox thefts in theirneighbourhood.

The notices wereleft in super mailboxesin the Port Coquitlamsubdivision earlier thisweek and offer up to a$2,000 Crime Stoppersreward for informationrelating to crimes com-mitted against CanadaPost mailboxes.

Citadel Heights mail-boxes have been lootedrepeatedly by thieves forthe past several years,leading to concerns overidentity theft.

A Canada Post spokes-person said the Tri-Cityarea as a whole has seena recent increase inmail thefts but, overall,the number of mailboxbreak-ins is down fromlast year.

“Regardless, we areworking closely withpolice to find the perpe-trators,” Anick Losiersaid in an email, addingthat in last month, twosuspects were arrestedby Coquitlam RCMP inconnection with mailtheft incidents.

“We wish to remindcustomers in the areathe need to pick up theirmail daily,” Losier said.“Perpetrators tend to goat night and will onlycome again and againif they know that folksleave their mail in theirbox for a few days.”

Canada Post advisesthat the best strategyagainst mail theft isfor everyone to pick uptheir mail as quickly aspossible.

No further informa-tion was available onthe two suspects ar-rested by The Tri-CityNews’ deadline.’[email protected]

In 2008, he requestedthe automatic reviewof his sentence by theNational Parole Boardnot go ahead.

Abby Drover was 12years old in 1976 whenshe was locked in abunker and repeatedlyraped and tortured byHay. For most of theordeal, she was hand-cuffed and often deniedfood and water.

Hay claimed at thetime that he thoughthe was helping the girlbecause he believed shewas being abused. Healso blamed alcohol forhis crimes.

Six months after shedisappeared, Droverwas discovered afterHay’s wife called police,fearing he was suicidal.When two Port MoodyPolice officers arrived,they found Hay withhis pants around hisankles, emerging froma garage cupboard thatconcealed the entranceto the undergroundroom. Drover, wearingthe same clothes shehad disappeared in, wasin the dungeon.

H a y e v e n t u a l l ypleaded guilty and wassentenced to life inprison.

In 2002, when Hay wasup for parole, Drovertold the parole boardthat her former captorshould remain incarcer-ated.

“Please don’t let himout,” she said. “I was al-ways terrified to thinkof him being releasedand now, after hear-ing him speak, denyand still minimize hiscrimes, it horrifies me

to think the day willcome that he will walkfree.”

She told The Tri-CityNews at the time thatHay “just doesn’t get it.”

“He’s not ready [tobe paroled]. He’s still indenial. He still doesn’tget it. He’s still lying.And I’m glad the paroleboard could see that.”[email protected]

ICBC online tooldisplays collision data for each city

By Jeff NagelBLACK PRESS

Anyone who has won-dered which B.C. inter-sections are the mostdangerous to drive,cycle or walk throughcan now check onlinefor a new tool.

ICBC has unveiled in-teractive maps that dis-play its crash data goingback up to five years forevery local city.

Many of the worstsites in the LowerMainland are at on-and off-ramps alongHighway 1, althoughother severely crash-prone spots include

intersections on KingGeorge Highway inSurrey and along heav-ily travelled north-southcorridors in Vancouver.

A city menu lets userschoose the communitythey want to view and

the map with crash sitesis then displayed, alongwith a list of intersec-tions with the highestcrash counts.

Users can view themapped crash data fromany one of the past five

years, or all the yearscombined.

They can also chooseto see just casualtycrashes, not ones thatonly caused propertydamage.

Separate maps pre-pared by ICBC showdata on crashes involv-ing cyclists or pedestri-ans.

“You can really breakit down to the area youlive in,” ICBC spokes-man Adam Grossmansaid. “So hopefully, alot of people find it use-ful.”

He said the auto in-

surer gets many re-quests for that dataalready and decided tomake it freely availableto save staff and re-questers time.

“We’re looking forways to make our infor-mation more transpar-ent and accessible.”

Grossman added thedata doesn’t mean cer-tain intersections them-selves are dangerous be-cause of their design.

“It really comes downto driver behaviour atthe end of the day,” hesaid.

Private financ-ing is pledged toqualify for grant


Metro Vancouver’sproposed waste-to-energyproject may end up beingprivately financed if theregional district’s applica-tion to Ottawa for federalfunding as a private-publicpartnership is approved.

The application for P3Canada funding has splitdirectors on the regionalboard, with some warn-ing that building a newincinerator as a P3 coulddramatically drive up thecosts for taxpayers.

Delta Mayor LoisJackson said the situa-tion is reminiscent of theCanada Line, where pri-vate investors borrowedthe money to build the$2-billion rapid transitline at much higher in-terest rates than if it hadbeen publicly financed.She noted the region getsfavourable interest ratesthrough its membershipin the Municipal FinanceAuthority.

“I have no problemwith doing a P3 for de-sign-build,” Jackson said.“But finance, I think, isnot a wise choice. All thatmoney and interest has tobe paid back and the tax-payer ends up paying backa higher rate of interest.”

P3 Canada-eligible proj-ects must give the privatepartner not just a design-build role but also one ofeither operating, main-taining or financing it.

Metro’s applicationproposes a design-build-fi-nance-operate P3 becauseprojects with the mostprivate sector involve-ment are expected to bepreferred for funding.

B o a r d v i c e - c h a i rRichard Walton supported

the decision, saying Metrowon’t yet be bound to thatmodel and could revise itlater.

Metro staff and consul-tants are still determininga recommended businessmodel for the new plantahead of a call for propos-als from potential part-ners.

But Walton said theregion had to apply byJune 15 to have a shot ata grant.

“My view is you keepall those doors open goingforward,” he said.

The P3 Canada fund is

to distribute more than$525 million by the end of2013, with grants limitedto 25% of a project’s capi-tal cost.

Metro’s current waste-to-energy plant in southBurnaby was developedas a design-build-operateP3, with the region financ-ing it and retaining own-ership.

Metro Vancouver stillmust carry out extensivestudies and consultationwith the Fraser ValleyRegional District, wherethere are concerns a newincinerator would worsen

air quality in the con-strained airshed. Metrois also far from decidingwhere a new waste-to-en-ergy plant might be builtand whether it uses con-ventional incineration orsome alternative technol-ogy.

The region downsizedthe plan earlier this year,estimating it now needsextra disposal capacity of250,000 to 400,000 tonnesper year — down from500,000 to 600,000 — inlight of declining garbagevolumes.

Toy bears ‘bring a little bit of comfort’ to children in need


A collection of twodozen hand-knittedteddy bears will begoing to Port Moodychildren in crisis aftermaking a quick stop atthe Ioco United Church.

The bears, which weremade by church mem-ber Lesley Ebenstiner,were blessed and com-missioned into serviceas trauma bears dur-ing the May 27 sermon,and were donated tothe Port Moody PoliceDepartment’s victimservices last Wednesdayafternoon.

R e v. S h a r i l y n nUpsdell said it was apassing mention of aprayer shawl she wasknitting for a friend thatgot Ebenstiner think-ing.

“She said, ‘I have allthese bears and they’rejust filling up the com-puter room, and my hus-band is getting reallytired of them,’” Upsdellsaid. She made somecalls and found thatPMPD’s victim servicesworkers would happilytake them.

Roselle McQuillan,the victim services co-ordinator, said the bears

are a special tool whenworking with peoplewho have been affectedby crime or some othertrauma.

“Especially for chil-dren — and not justchildren, actually — ata time of crisis, havingsomething like a bearor stuffed toy brings alittle bit of comfort tosomeone going througha very traumatic event,”McQuillan said.

The soft, plush bearsare knitted in brownand grey wool, andsport sweaters of vari-ous colours; it tookEbenstiner about twoyears to amass the col-lection.

“If I’m watching aprogram or listening tomusic, I like to keep myhands busy,” she said.Ebenstiner crafts themout of spare yarn fromother projects “ratherthan have that yarn goto waste.”

And now the bearsand Upsdell’s prayershawl have inspired awhole new outreach pro-gram for Ioco United.

The kids in churchthe day Upsdell showedoff her shawl were socaptivated that theyasked for lessons. Ahandful of church la-dies happily obliged andthe kids have since beenbusy knitting squares

that Ebenstiner will cro-chet together in blan-kets that will be donatedto the cold/wet weathermat program for thehomeless.

“It’s exciting that thisministry has popped upout of nowhere becauseI was knitting a prayershawl,” Upsdell [email protected]

VICTORIA

The old saying goes thatif you like sausages andlaws, you shouldn’t watch

either one being made.The legislature’s sausage fac-

tory worked overtime to crankout a pile of legislative change before thegovernment choked off debate and shut itdown for the summer. This is after a dozencomplicated bills were stuffed into the hop-per in the final month.

For the first time in B.C. history, debatewas carried on in three separate chambersto try to get through it all. It created a cha-otic scene, with politicians and reportersdashing around trying to create the impres-sion they were on top of it all.

The NDP opposition screamed bloodymurder about this travesty, especially as theclock ran down last week and bills were as-signed a token 30 or 45 minutes to meet the

BC Liberal government’s arbitrary deadline.Alas, what little time was allowed for

the opposition to question legislation waslargely frittered away with the usual parti-san sniping that substitutes for alternativeideas.

The good news is that this mad rushwasn’t a calculated scheme to ram throughunpopular, unfair measures. Quite the con-trary. The BC Liberal government’s back isto the wall, trying to do what the public andcircumstances demand and save its ownskin.

Here’s a partial list of the marching or-ders:

• Get rid of the harmonized sales tax andbring back a computerized version of theold, inefficient provincial sales tax.

• Unclog the court system, which has be-come so constipated that a Stanley Cup riotfool can’t even plead guilty in a reasonabletime.

• And find a way to make our growingpopulation of urban anarchists and assortedother deadbeats pay to ride transit.

The HST exercise continuesto exact its cost. The unprece-dented job of creating a modernsystem for the archaic sales taxwas the main cause of the legis-lative logjam, tying up govern-ment lawyers and delaying draft-ing of other bills. Small businessesthat paid $3,000 to convert to HST get to payanother $3,000 to go back, and we had all bet-ter hope the new computer software works.

Speaking of computers, one of the lawspassed amid the shouting is one that estab-lishes an online system for disputing traffictickets. Police will print out tickets fromtheir cars instead of hand-writing them, anddrivers will have an alternative way to argueabout whether they really ran that red light.

Fighting a ticket in court now takes sevento 18 months, tying up judges, court registrystaff and police. An administrative systemwon’t keep them all out of court but thegovernment hopes to reduce the averageresolution time to 90 days and save $8 mil-lion a year or more. A similar administrative

system is being established forsmall civil claims and strataproperty disputes.

Some legislation is to fix ear-lier screw-ups. A judge tossedout B.C.’s most heavy-handed ad-ministrative penalties for failing

a roadside blood alcohol test, so thegovernment brought in a new version that

allows for another administrative appeal.The mistake of making transit operate on

a poorly policed honour system goes back toSocial Credit days. There is finally a systemto enforce collection of fines on those rareoccasions when someone is ticketed for tak-ing a free ride.

Even with the last-minute rush, four billscouldn’t be rammed through. Since the legis-lature will almost certainly have to be recalledto impose a contract on teachers this fall, thegovernment would do well to provide a coupleof weeks for orderly debate at that time.

Mountie movesThere has been much outrage over the RCMP

decision to ship a Mountie who abused his posi-tion as head of a polygraph unit in Edmonton

to B.C.Don Ray exposed himself, had sex with subordi-

nates, and kept a well-stocked liquor cabinet in hiscrime lab. His punishment for all of this was to bedemoted to sergeant from staff-sergeant, lose 10 dayspay and come to B.C.

From a public relations perspective, it was likespraying a wasp nest with insect repellent — in themiddle of the day.

The B.C. public is extremely cynical about theRCMP as an organization right now. This is the resultof a number of incidents.

The most notable ones are the widespread per-ception that some men within the RCMP system-atically harass female members and civilian workers;the Tasering death of a confused Polish man at theVancouver Airport; the Mountie who left the sceneof a fatal accident and fortified himself with vodka;and the shooting death of an unarmed prisoner at theHouston police detachment. (Most recently, a formerCoquitlam RCMP civilian employee filed suit for al-leged harassment.)

Deputy Commissioner Craig Callens, who hastaken over as the top Mountie in B.C., says things willchange — but Ray’s transfer tells people that thingsaren’t changing. Coming on the heels of renewal ofthe RCMP contract in B.C. for a 20-year period, it’s toomuch for many.

The vast majority of Mounties are upright, honestpeople whose devotion to the force’s goal to serve andprotect is obvious.

It would, thus, be hard to believe that most of themaren’t as disgusted with the decision in regard to Rayas the rest of us are.

It’s even harder to imagine that the RCMP brasswho made the decision couldn’t see the terrible publicoptics of the move.

TRI-CITYCITYTRI-CITY LETTERSYYYYWho is a busker?The Editor,

Re. “Would you likefood with tunes?” (TheTri-City News, May 24)and “Is Port Moody reg-ulating buskers a goodthing for the commu-nity?” (Face to Face, TheTri-City News, June 1).

I celebrate the idea ofallowing licensed musi-cians to play in publicplaces to promote theCity of the Arts. A per-formance by a talentedmusician can add to theartsy atmosphere in ourcity’s public gatheringplaces.

But my question isthis: If someone decidesto take advantage of asunny day by playingtheir guitar in a park,are they now breakingthe law? Do I need a li-cence to jam in publiceven if I’m not solicit-ing donations frompassers-by? And howwill the bylaw enforce-ment officers know thedifference between bus-kers and people who arejust entertaining them-selves?Amy Carruthers,Port Moody

Upset & unsettledover plan changesThe Editor,

Re. “How high? Someresidents slam WindsorGate plans” (The Tri-City News, May 30).

There are a lot ofdifferent developmentsand neighbourhoods tochoose from in the Tri-Cities. We chose to livein the Windsor Gatecommunity based onthe vision and the ren-derings and model ofthe area we were pre-sented by Polygon lessthan one year ago.

We could have livedin or near any of thehighrises surroundingthe City Centre but wedidn’t want to live inor near the tall build-ings, their long shad-ows or the busy streets.We are as close and asfar from Town Centreas we want to be. Wehave one of the largestdecks at Roycroft andwe get sunshine almostthe whole day; once thehighrises are built, wewill be lucky to get acouple of hours.

We bought here forthe backdrop of a green-belt, a clear view of thesky, a quieter, less con-gested style of life. Tofind out after only eightmonths that the devel-oper, Polygon,wants toc h a n g ethe entireconcept forthis area isupsettingand unset-tling.

We feel misled andcheated. What we be-lieved we invested ourmoney in will now besomething someoneelse has decided andwe will have to livewith it. I am surprisedPolygon has given solittle thought to thosewho already live here.

It’s like going to afast food drive-through,ordering a small mealand being given the su-per-sized meal. I didn’torder it, I don’t wantthe extras, I just wantwhat I bought, like in

the picture.I know Polygon has

offered the city ofCoquitlam incentivestowards the EvergreenLine and the nearbypark as well as a bit of

green space anda n o t h e rwater fea-ture (plusi n c o m efrom futuretaxes) butwhat does

all that con-to the people

who already live here?I have asked the

councillors and mayorof Coquitlam not ap-prove this amendment,to let the developmentgo ahead as planned,presented and sold.Build the highrises inthe city centre, wherepeople have the choiceto live there if they like.

I hope the voices ofthose who live here willbe heard but I fear it hasalready been decided.Lynda Ottnad,Coquitlam

Over 15 Million milk empties recycled at Return-ItDepots in 2011British Columbians get top marksfor their milk carton recycling eff orts as over 15 million milk con-tainers were returned to partici-pating Return-It Depots last year.

“Th e volume of milk containersreturned to participating Return-It Depots has tripled since 2006.” says Mike Dick, president of theBC Dairy Council.

“Th e amount of cartons and jugsthat we have saved from landfi llsis quite signifi cant,” says Dick. “Itis hard to visualize the amount, but if you were to align 15 million jugsand cartons upright and side-by-side, the distance would cover fromVancouver to Prince George – and back. Th at’s over 1,500 kilometers!”Th e 15 million containers weighed in at 630,000 kilograms (380,000

kilograms of milk cartons and250,000 kilograms of plastic milk jugs). Year over year, the weightof recovered milk containers has increased by eight per cent – that’s an increase of 47,000 more kilo-grams from 2010 and a trend that the Dairy Council hopes will continue.

Number of participatingReturn-It Depots more than doubledTh e voluntary recycling programprovided by Return-It Depots allows consumers to drop off empty milk containers, at no charge,to participating depots and it is

proving to be a huge success.Services are provided by EncorpPacifi c, which manages the Return-It Depots throughout the province that accept milk containers forrecycling. Since the company wasfi rst contracted to service the voluntary milk recycling program in 2006, the number of Return-It Depots that accept milk empties hasmore than doubled from 70 to 166. Th e growing network of partici-pating Return-It Depots has made it easier for British Columbiansto do the right thing and recycle responsibly. Research shows that the average BC household empties6.5 milk containers every monthand that there are more than1.8 million households in B.C., so the potential impact on the environment is signifi cant.

No deposit = no refundTh ere’s no refund on milk empties(because you didn’t pay a deposit), but you’ll have the satisfaction of knowing you are doing the right thing. Plastic jugs are the most popular form of packaging for milk in BC, polycoat milk cartons are also commonly used. Although polycoat cartons are not usually accepted through curbside blue-box programs, milk carton recycling isoff ered at 166 participating Return-

It Depots across the province. Allmilk, cream, and milk substitute(soy, almond and rice) beverage con-tainers are recyclable and accepted.

Rinse and crush milkcontainers for recyclingPreparing milk containers for re-cycling is easy; simply rinse themout and crush them. Th is stopsthe cartons and jugs from smelling and makes them more compact to store and carry. It also facili-tates the recycling process. Don’t forget to remove and bring inthe caps too, because they get recycled separately.British Columbians can bring their milk empties to participating Return-It Depots along with their deposit-bearing bottles and cans. It’s easy and convenient.

B.C. gets top marks for 2011 milk recycling efforts

Trails, streets are availablefor adoption


The city of PortCoquit lam wil l belooking to membersof the community tohelp clean up some ofits streets, parks andtrails.

Staf f are propos-ing an Adopt-A-Streetprogram, which wouldallow residents to takecharge of a given areato ensure that it is safeand well-maintained.

“The emphasis isincreasing the senseof community thatwe have,” said LarryWheeler, the city’s act-ing director of parksand recreation. “It al-lows people to feel agreater sense of own-ership in their publicproperties.”

The report states thatthe initiative wouldbenefit the communityby promoting physicalactivity and encourag-ing greater social in-teraction between resi-dents. It also increasesresidents’ connectionwith their natural envi-ronment, Wheeler said.

One issue that came

up during the develop-ment of the proposalhas to do with how theAdopt-A-Street programwould affect unionizedcity staff members.

Wheeler said discus-sions have taken placeto ensure that the workthat is being conductedby volunteers goes be-yond what the city al-ready offers in the wayof maintenance to itsparks and trails.

“We like to see it asadded value,” Wheelersaid. “Staff will stillcontinue to do thework that they do andthis would be over andabove.”

CUPE Local 498 ,which represents citystaff in Port Coquitlam,has endorsed the pro-gram, said the staff re-port.

Council is expected tovote on the report at ameeting next month. Ifthe proposal is success-ful, it would be open toall volunteers, includ-ing businesses, com-munity organizations,schools, families or in-dividuals who completethe application [email protected]

Port Coquitlam resi-dents can voice theirthoughts on the city’stransportation systemat an open house nextweek.

Staf f is lookingfor feedback to helpshape the city’s MasterTransportation Plan,which will guide thecity’s decisions relatingto local pedestrian, bi-cycle, transit and roadnetworks for the nextdecade.

The public open housewill be held Tuesday,June 12 between 6 and 8p.m. at the Outlet (2253Leigh Sq.). Visitors willbe able to view displayboards and speak to con-sultants and provide feed-back on what directionthey feel the city shouldbe taking with its trans-portation initiatives.

There will also be anonline survey availableon the city’s websitebetween June 13 and 20that residents can ac-cess by going to www.portcoquitlam.ca/mtp.

The city began itsMTP update in 2011 andwill present the finaldraft copy to the com-munity and council forfeedback and adoptionthis fall.

A longtime friendand advisor to formerPort Moody mayorJoe Trasolini is nowthe constituency as-sistant to the newlyelected MLA.

TransLink com-mitment to addexpress busroutes in limbo


Metro Vancouvermayors had no legalleg to stand on in Aprilwhen they voted to re-scind a property taxincrease for TransLinkthat was originallypassed last fall as abackup measure to fi-nance transit expan-sion.

T r a n s L i n kCommissioner MartinCrilly made that pointin a recent MayorsCouncil meeting, say-ing he could not allowthe perception to re-main that mayors couldat any time revoke alegally binding supple-ment they previouslyapproved.

“In my view theresolution that waspassed has no legalforce,” Crilly said inan interview. “I believeTransLink is obligedto deliver the services,projects and programsthat were approvedin the 2012 MovingForward plan.”

TransLink could notreasonably make plansif its funding sourceswere not binding andCrilly said he wouldnever have let the may-ors vote on the supple-ment if they could laterchange their minds andreverse it.

The mayors’ April 12vote to cancel the $30million property tax ledTransLink to freeze sev-eral expansion projects,including the plannedHighway 1 expressbus service over thePort Mann Bridge anda new B-Line expressbus down King GeorgeHighway in Surrey.

The decisions cameafter the province re-fused to grant newfunding sources forTransLink.

But Crilly’s viewthat the retraction isnot valid does not nec-essarily mean the taxhike and the bus serviceupgrades are back onagain.

TransLink officials,acting in line with themayors’ intent, have in-dicated they could drawup a revised supplementthat replaces the exist-ing one – eliminatingthe $23 property tax in-

crease pera v e r a g ehome overthe nexttwo yearsas well asp r o j e c t sthat can’tbe funded

by other means.The original supple-

ment approved the two-cent gas tax hike inApril and the propertytax hike was to kick inonly if the province andmayors failed to agreeon a new TransLinkfunding source, whichis what happened.

Crilly, however, saidhe’s still not sure howthe property tax can le-gally be unwound.

“There is no reversegear,” he said, notingthat funding increasesthat mayors approve ina supplement becomelocked into TransLink’sbase plan (over whichmayors have no vote) forfuture years.

But at the same time,Crilly said he hasn’tfound any enforcementmechanism in the leg-islation that could com-pel TransLink to raiseits property tax, as au-thorized, to deliver thepromised services.

One way out of theproblem would be if re-

newed talks between themayors and the prov-ince authorize a newfunding source, suchas the proposed vehiclelevy shot down by thepremier this spring.

Barring a break-through there, auditorsdispatched by the prov-ince would have to findlarge amounts of sav-ings within TransLink,avoiding the need forthe tax.

TransLink must craftany new plan it will taketo the mayors by Nov. 1.

Langley TownshipMayor Jack Froese, whowants the Highway 1

RapidBus to go ahead,said he’s willing to waitto see what the auditorsuncover this summer.

But in the absence ofa financial miracle, hesaid TransLink mustproceed with its origi-nal plan, backstoppedby the tax hike.

“If there are nosources of funding I feelvery strongly that theyneed to go back to theoriginal supplement,and use the propertytax to carry on with theexpansion plan, includ-ing the RapidBus inLangley.”

Blake Salemink, aCoquitlam man accusedof setting a house firethat killed his mother,has been found notguilty by reason of men-tal disorder.

Judge Paul Williamsonsaid the 25-year-old ac-cused had a lengthy his-tory of mental illnessand his condition ap-peared to be deteriorat-ing before the April 19,2010 incident.

“His behaviour andactions were confusedin the lead-up to thefire,” Williamson saidFriday mor ning inB.C. Supreme Court inNew Westminster. “Atthe time of the offence,the accused was disor-ganized and lacked theability to focus... He hadfrequent contact withpolice and mental healthpersonnel.”

The case will now be

sent to the B.C. ReviewBoard, where a panel ofpsychiatrists and law-yers will determine thecourse of treatment.

Salemink’s historyof mental illness datesback to 2004, when hewas 17 years old. In 2008,he was sent to RoyalColumbian Hospitalsuffering from a psy-chotic relapse and laterspent time at RiverviewHospital. He was re-leased from the hospitallater that year under thecare of Tri-Cities MentalHealth despite thewishes of his mother,Colette Salemink, thathe remain in supportivehousing.

Salemink moved inwith his mother and, inthe months leading upto the fire, Williamsonsaid police contact withthe family increased. OnApril 17, two days beforethe incident, CoquitlamRCMP officers visitedthe home after Salemink

threatened to kill hismother. The next day, hebought a bus ticket toTijuana and the follow-ing morning, at around4 a.m., he called a taxito the home and askedto be driven to the U.S.border.

While en route, neigh-bours of the BurianDrive home began call-ing 911 with reports of afire at Colette Salemink’shome. By the time firecrews arrived, the housewas engulfed in fire,with heavy smoke andflames venting throughthe roof.

T h e 5 9 - y e a r - o l dwoman was found on themain floor of the home.Firefighters removedher and started medicaltreatment before takingher to hospital, whereshe was pronounceddead. Coquitlam Fireand Rescue Chief TonyDelmonico said at thetime investigators be-lieved she succumbed to

the smoke and gas fromthe fire.

Salemink was thenarrested in Salem, Ore.,where he spent a brieftime in hospital beforebeing turned over toCanadian authorities.

He has resided in theForensic PsychiatricHospital at Colony Farmsince his arrest.

Salemink’s lawyer,Lois Salmond, said theincident could have beenprevented had the pro-vincial government in-vested more in mentalhealth facilities and shel-ter for the mentally ill.

“This was a verytragic series of events,”she said. “In this case,it is very obvious wherethe system failed.”

Had there been morebeds at Riverview, shesaid her client’s motherwould not have beencompelled to take in herson and he could havebeen placed in the careof trained hospital staff.

“This woman washis caretaker and hadsought help a number oftimes in the lead-up tothis incident,” Salmondsaid. “The governmentshould take notice.This could have beenavoided... if a shelterhad been available andhad there been moremental health resourcesavailable.”

Court finds Salemink not criminally responsible for death of his mother

Probe won’t addhearing dates


Commissioner WallyOppal has been given anextra four months to fin-ish the Missing WomenInquiry’s report on howpolice failed to stop PortCoquitlam serial killerRobert Pickton muchsooner.

Oppal had been underpressure to hand downfindings and recom-mendations by June 30— a deadline that hadalready been extendedsix months — but willnow have until Oct. 31,Justice Minister ShirleyBond said last Thursday.

“We can’t have gonethrough all of this to notcome back with a reportthat is as credible andsignificant as it shouldbe,” Bond said. “I needa series of recommen-dations that British

Columbians have confi-dence in.”

She said Oppal madea “compelling” argu-ment for an extensionof the inquiry, whichhas so far cost the prov-ince $6.4 million. Bondpredicted the bill won’trise as quickly now thatthe inquiry is windingdown. She said the in-quiry has been a chal-lenge because of itsbroad scope.

“The mandate wasabout police conduct,and it’s hard to separatethat at times from sys-temic concerns aboutthe fate of aboriginalwomen in our prov-ince,” she said.

The inquiry was boy-cotted from the outsetby most aboriginal andwomen’s groups, whocomplained then abouta narrow focus and ar-gued more recently foran extension to callmore witnesses. It alsofaced another delaywhen the lawyer repre-

senting aboriginal in-terests quit in protest —saying the inquiry wasdominated by policelawyers — and had to bereplaced.

The inquiry hasended its hearings andfinal submissions are towrap up by the end ofthis week.

The Missing WomenInquiry heard from 80witnesses, conductedpublic policy forumsand commissioned vari-ous reports that Oppalwill consider. Much tes-timony explored howboth Vancouver Police

and the RCMP failedto target Pickton moreintensively after henearly killed a womanwho escaped from hisPort Coquitlam farm inearly 1997. Officers alsogot repeated tips thatPickton could be killingsex-trade workers fromthe Downtown Eastsidein 1998.

He was finally ar-rested in February 2002and was eventually con-victed on six counts ofsecond-degree murder,although he boasted toan undercover cop hekilled 49 women.

Oppal gets more time tofinish Pickton inquiry

The Rebeccaof the title is dead, killedin a sailing accident,leaving the way openfor her millionairehusband to marry anaive young woman.Once married, they livein their fabulous coun-try estate, Manderley,where the young wifebegins to believe thather home is haunted bythe memory of Rebecca.The book opens withthe famous lines: “Lastnight I dreamt I wentto Manderley again. Itseemed to me I stood bythe iron gate leading tothe drive and for a whileI could not enter, for theway was barred to me.”

The Eye of the Needleby Ken Follett is aningenious espionagethriller set in the SecondWorld War. The Needleis Hitler’s prize agentand only he knows thatthe allies are disguisingtheir invasion planswith a phoney armadaof ships and planes.Filled with a frighteningrichness of historical de-tail that gives the readera feel for the period, TheEye of the Needle is sus-epenseful and intriguing— you will not be able toput this book down.

Chocolat byt JoanneHarris, an enchanting,sensual novel aboutpleasure and tempta-tion, pulls you into aland where you want toreside forever. This bookhas a luscious, fairy tale-like sensation centredaround the magicaltouch of Vianne, a not-so-ordinary shopkeeperwho sets up a chocolateshop in the centre oftown. Be careful withthis book a it will leaveyou with intense crav-ings for chocolate.

Water for Elephants bySara Gruen is a storyabout a 90-year-old manremembering his dayswith the circus duringthe Great Depression.The story moves be-tween his time with thecircus and his life nowin a nursing home.

Diamond rocks out with kids Teddy Bear festival

By Janis WarrenTHE TRI-CITY NEWS

After more than a quar-AAter of a century as achildren’s entertainer,

Charlotte Diamond takespleasure in the unexpected.

Last week, while performing inStockton, Calif., at a migrant edu-cation preschool family night, adad jumped on stage for DickyDicky Dinosaur, reversed his hat,slid on his sunglasses and rappedwith Diamond.

“He had the audience in thepalm of his hand,” she said dur-ing a phone interview at a homenear San Francisco. “That, to me,is why I do what I do.”

And Diamond has many op-portunities throughout the yearto be entertained at her own per-formances. On average, she con-ducts 150 workshops and showsannually around North Americathough, these days, she prefers tostay close to B.C.

“Now I’m at the stage ofbeing a grandma and wanting tobe near home,” said Diamond,whose five- and two-year-oldgrandkids live in Pitt Meadows.“So when I go, I tend to clumpevents together and that makessense from a touring point ofview because it costs so much tofly and transport CDs around.”

Diamond said she loves noth-ing more than performing beforelocal crowds — many of whomgrew up learning her famoussongs such as I Am A Pizza,Four Hugs A Day and Octopus(Slippery Fish) — and she alsoenjoys singing in French andSpanish, too.

Diamond, a former schoolteacher, majored in biology andFrench at UBC and picked upSpanish through conversationwith her Latin American friendson campus. About half of herconcerts are in the romance lan-guages, she said.

For example, last month,Diamond played a French/English concert at DallingtonSchool in Ontario; the next week,she performed six concerts inFrench for the Duffering-PeelCatholic school district; and,later this month, Diamond willbe part of a Spanish/Englishconference in Newport Beach,Calif., speaking on the topic “TheJoy of Singing Leads to a Love ofLanguage.”

At that event, she’ll also workwith teachers to encourage themto write their own songs.

“California is finally pickingup on the fact that they have thislarge population that speaksSpanish and they have been cut-ting back part of their education

out of the curriculum,” she said.“Now they’re putting it back inbecause these are people thatspeak this language. Let’s getthem to feel that they have moreability within that language. Let’seducate them in that language.

“Their English can only behelped by that because the morechildren are interested in booksand reading and singing in a lan-guage, the more fluent they be-come in language,” she said.

Still, vocals aren’t the onlymethod Diamond communi-cates in: She also incorporatesAmerican Sign Language. “Ifound that when I was switch-ing from English to French toSpanish, sign language becamethe glue and I realized the moreprops I used and the more move-ment-oriented my presentationwas, the more everybody joinedin and the sign language reallyhelps. It is definitely part of myshow,” she said.

• Charlotte Diamond will ap-pear on the Coast Capital stageat Town Centre Park on Saturday,June 9 at 4 p.m. as part of the an-nual Teddy Bear Picnic Festival,which runs all weekend.

By Janis WarrenTHE TRI-CITY NEWS

L y n n K e n n e t hPecknold’s new exhibit,which opens tomor-row (Thursday) in theLeonore Peyton Salonat Coquitlam’s Place desArts, will be an homageof sorts.

Now a Port Alberniresident, Pecknoldused to teach art atComo Lake middle,Centennial secondaryand George Pearkes ju-nior high school — andwas School District 43’sart supervisor — in the1960s and 70s.

“I was fairly involvedin the arts scene whenI was in Coquitlam for12 years,” he said fromhis home last week,“and I have some veryfond memories of mytime there. I had neatkids and neat staff.There were some verydedicated teachers thatI worked with.”

Pecknold’s show, ti-tled Memories Revisited— A Teacher’s Return, iscomprised of 45 multi-media, multi-colouredabstract pieces.

And the exhibit in-cludes a digital designseries called Reflectionsd ,which he worked onwith his one of his pastsenior students to inter-pret the roots of stumpswashed up on beaches.

Lately, twisted rope,strings and knots havebeen a source of fasci-nation and Pecknoldshows them in 11 of hisrecent paintings.

“When I’m on the BCFerries and I see theropes just lying there,I have to photographthem and think aboutthat,” the septuagenar-ian said, adding, ‘I’moften looking for sub-liminal imagery whenI work, images that arehidden within some-thing else. I don’t startwith a lot of precon-ceived ideas. I just likethe randomness of it...then I let the images popin.”

Meanwhile, another

former SD43 art teacherwill showcase piecesfrom his students in theMezzanine Gallery thismonth.

Students in DonPortelance’s art en-hancement workshop —an enrichment programfor artists ages 14 to20 — will highlight artfrom their studio ses-sions and field trips.

As well, PdA visualarts students will hosttheir annual show inthe Atrium Gallery.

• The opening recep-tion for the three dis-plays at Place des Arts(1120 Brunette Ave.,Coquitlam) starts at 7p.m. on [email protected]

Centennial Centaurs’ Allison Coquhoun, right, scrambles to the ball versus a Claremont Spartans’ foe from Victoria during Thursday’s opening-dayaction at the B.C. AAA senior girls high school soccer championships in Surrey.

By Larry PrunerTHE TRI-CITY NEWS

Dr. Charles Best Blue Devils and the Centennial Centaurs performed admirably at last weekend’s B.C. AAA senior girls high

school soccer championships in Surrey.Only a handful of teams showed a touch better.The Blue Devils took fourth spot while the Cents

settled for sixth in the 16-team affair, with Surrey’s Panorama Ridge Thunder shaving Kelowna’s Mt. Boucherie Bears 1-0 in Saturday’s championship game at Newton Athletic Park.

The Thunder bounced Best 4-1 in Friday’s semi-finals, with the Blue Devils wrapping up tourna-ment play with another 4-1 defeat to the third-place Handsworth Royals of North Vancouver. Centennial was blanked 2-0 by the Point Grey Greyhounds in the battle for fifth spot.

“The school and I are still very proud of this achievement, since the team was mostly made up of junior players from Grades 9 and 10. The fu-ture looks promising,” said Blue Devils head coach Alfonso Napoletano, who steered the squad to a 19-3 overall record this season. “The team is already looking forward to next year to again try to qualify for the provincials and hopefully do even better.”

The Blue Devils finished with two wins and a tie in their four-team round-robin pool, with victo-ries over South Kamloops (2-1) and North Delta’s Seaquam Seahawks (5-0) while knotting Campbell River’s Carihi (0-0), to placed first via goal differen-tial before falling in the semis to the Thunder.

Against Panorama Ridge, the score was tied in the second 1-1 after Best’s Andrea Perrota tallied on a great finish, only to have the eventual-champion Thunder strike for three goals in the final 20 min-utes to prevail.

Not helping matters for the Blue Devils was los-ing star defender Nadia Karmali, who went on to make the Commissioner’s 11 all-star squad, to in-jury early in the game.

“It was disheartening loss because for most of the game we were the better team,” Napoletano said.

The Centaurs, meanwhile, grabbed second in their round-robin pool with victories over Victoria’s Claremont Spartans (3-1) and Surrey’s Fleetwood Park Dragons (2-0), coupled with a loss to Handsworth (3-1).

After downing the Kitsilano Blue Demons 1-0 in one of Friday’s cross-over matches, the Cents simply ran out of steam the next day versus Point Grey. Olivia Aguiar was Centennial’s recipient of Commissioner’s 11 all-star honours.

“We were down to 11 players, no subs, everyone exhausted [and] banged up,” said Centaurs head coach Larry Moro. “It wasn’t an artistic success but we competed hard as always.”

Centennial concluded the season with an 18-5-1 overall record.

A trio of Tri-City male sprinters burned up the track in 46th annual B.C. high school track and field champion-ships Friday and Saturday at soggy Swangard Stadium in Burnaby.

And three female javelin throwers from the community left a most impressive one-two-three mark on the infield.

Nathan George of the Centennial Centaurs did a dou-ble-win dash, claiming both the boys 200- and 400-metre races in 21.80 and 47.89 seconds re-spectively.

Dr. Charles Best Blue Devils’ James Linde captured the boys 100m final in 11.14 ticks, while Hodson Harding of the

Gleneagle Talons was second to George in the 400m in 49.36. George, who won the 200m at provincials also last year, and Harding are teammates on the Coquitlam Cheetahs track and field club team.

Meanwhile, Linde was sec-ond to George in the 200m in 22.04, while the British-born Harding was sixth in that event in 23.15.

In the women’s javelin final, Teagan Rasche of the Riverside Rapids took top spot with a 39.18m heave, followed by run-ner-up Tiffani Hernandez of Dr. Charles Best with 37.51 and third-place finisher Britnni Wolczyk of the Archbishop Carney Stars with 37.21.

Like that wasn’t enough, Rasche also won the silver medal in the girls 1500-metre race walk in 7:48.52, just be-hind winner Nina Briggs of Victoria’s Oak Bay in 7:45.24.

Wolczyk, meanwhile, placed eighth in girls discus with a toss of 30.67 metres.

C e n t e n n i a l ’s M i r a n d a Menzies earned bronze in the girls 800 metres in 2:18.14, be-hind winner Ashley Windsor of Langley’s Walnut Grove in 2:15.96 and Semiahmoo’s Alison Williams in 2:17.90.

Vancouver’s St. George’s won the overall team aggre-gate and also captured the boys crown, while Walnut Grove won the girls team division.

A SPECIAL PLAYA player gets ready to throw during a BC Special Olympics regional softball tournament last weekend at McLean Park.

Coquitlam Adanacs opened the Western Lacrosse Association season with a victory.

Since then, things haven’t gone so hot for the team that’s looking to improve on last year’s last-place showing.

Shayne Jackson’s g o a l w i t h fewer than eight min-utes remain-ing proved the winner S a t u r d a y as the A’s were trimmed 7-6 by the Langley Thunder at Poirier Sports Complex.

The result dropped the A’s to 1-3, while Langley improved to 2-2.

The teams were tied 2-2 after the first pe-riod and the Thunder took a 5 -4 margin into the third, where Coquit lam’s Kevin Olson scored on a power play nine minutes in to even the count 6-6 before Jackson struck for the eventual deciding tally.

Scoring continues to plague the A’s, who have scored only 24 goals in their four games thus far for a league-worst

average of six markers per game.

Olson finished with two goals for the A’s, who got another pair from Daniel McQuade. Steve McKinlay and Jason Jones were the only other Coquitlam players to strike net.

L a n g l e y w a s l e d by for mer Coquitlam Jr. Adanac star Athan I a n n u c c i , who scored

once and assisted on two others.

The A’s visit the 4-0 Victoria Shamrocks tonight (Wednesday) b e f o r e r e t u r n i n g home to face the 3-1 N e w We s t m i n s t e r S a l m o n b e l l i e s o n Saturday, 7 p.m at Poirier.

Delmonico and Cory Takahara each scored twice but their PoCo Saints were shaved 9-8 Friday by the Delta Islanders in a B.C. Junior ‘A’ affair in Ladner.

Adrien d’Andrade of Coquitlam is one of 18 players who’ve made the Canadian junior national men’s field hockey team that will compete in a three-match series versus host Mexico from June 15-17

in Guadalajara, it was announced Tuesday.

The series is de-signed to prepare the Canadians for the Junior Pan American Championships, also set for Guadalajara, in September.
