Protests play out on social mediamario [email protected]
As anti-pipeline protesters make their daily trek up Centennial Way to join those keeping vigil at the site where survey crews from Kinder Morgan are taking soil and rock samples, their fight is being played out on social media to the world.
#BurnabyMountain has been one of the top trending topics on Twitter since Burnaby RCMP began enforcing the injunction restricting where protesters could go on Burnaby Mountain. That means it’s one of the most talked about topics in the country, surpassing other popular subjects like the American Music Awards (#AMAs2014) and even #BuffaloSnowstorm.
The protesters’ Facebook page, Burnaby Mountain Updates, had more than 10,000 likes as of Monday.
The protests’ social media presence has been fuelled by a number of protesters, supporters and media who are working their fingers furiously on their mobile devices, posting live updates, photos and videos as each day’s events play out.

Every morning Sut-Lut, an early childhood educator from the Squamish nation, climbs out of an RCMP police vehicle behind the protesters gathered at the yellow tape across Centennial Way that marks the court-ordered work zone for Kinder Morgan survey crews.
An officer gently hooks her arm in his and escorts her through the throng and past the tape.
A few minutes later she returns to fetch two volunteers to join her.
The ritual is a marked contrast to Sut-Lut’s first encounter with RCMP on Thursday, when she was one of dozens of protesters arrested as police enforced the injunction that had been in place since last Monday. She laid herself on a “protector totem” being carved by First Nations’ artists to prevent it from being moved and a sacred flame burning at the month’s long encampment
built by protesters from being extinguished. Her effort was rewarded with her hands behind her
back and plastic zap straps around her wrists.
Four days into the protests at the injunction zone on Burnaby Mountain, each side of the
yellow tape has fallen into a routine.The protesters gather at the
corner of Centennial Way and Burnaby Mountain Parkway at
10:30 a.m. Names are recorded in a binder of those willing to walk underneath the tape and get arrested for civil contempt.
The group then marches up the hill to the line.
On the other side of the tape, the police stand shoulder to shoulder awaiting their arrival.
Relations between the two sides are, for the most part, cordial.
When it’s raining, as it was on Monday, everyone is just trying to stay dry.
Life on protest line settles into routine

One officer in a black RCMP slicker underneath his yellow safety vest asks a young protester about her Judas Priest T-shirt. He tells her about two recent concerts of the heavy metal band she recently attended.
Another woman arrives at the tape with a big plastic container of soup for the protest camp erected at the opposite end of the injunction area. An officer offers to deliver it, then returns with the empty shopping bag.
“We maintain a level of professionalism,” said Staff Sgt. Andy LeClair of the Burnaby RCMP, who’s been a constant presence on the mountain for weeks. “We understand it’s a topic with a lot of passion.”
Sometimes those passions inflame and
exchanges between police and protesters can get heated. But, said LeClair, he’s met “some great people” in his time on the mountain.
“I wasn’t sure what this was going to look like,” said LeClair. “But with the vast majority
of people I’ve talked to, I’ve been thoroughly impressed.”
Sut-Lut said she’s also developed a respect for the police as she’s gotten to know them. Some of the officers drop by the sacred flame to chat, and warm their hands a little.
She said it’s important she maintain her presence on the mountain.
“I’ve got some foot on here,” she said. “No one but the Queen can keep me off the mountain.”

Police prepared to call in reinforcements
Mario [email protected]
Burnaby RCMP are prepared for a long siege at Burnaby Mountain.
And that could mean calling in reinforcements from other Lower Mainland detachments, said Staff Sgt. John Buis on Saturday.
Buis said Burnaby officers at the scene are being bolstered by members of the integrated tactical unit, emergency response team, negotiation team as well as aboriginal policing services.
But as the standoff between protesters and police enforcing a court injunction to allow survey crews from Kinder Morgan to carry out their geotechnical studies on Burnaby Mountain without interference drags on, Buis admitted those officers will need “a day of rest.”
While Buis couldn’t give a specific number of officers deployed to Burnaby Mountain, he did say the force has “staffed accordingly,” and there will be no effect on day-to-day policing.
“We’ll still be able to respond to emergency calls,” said Buis.
As of Saturday afternoon police had arrested 53 protesters in the three days since the RCMP moved in to enforce the court injunction Kinder Morgan had been granted by B.C. Supreme Court last Friday.
That injunction came into effect last Monday at 4 p.m.

The protesters are also using social media to rally support from around the world. Support rallies have been held in Seattle, New Brunswick and Edmonton.
They’re also putting calls out for supplies like dry firewood, plastic bins, propane stoves, candles and food to help sustain those protesters keeping an
around-the-clock vigil near Kinder Morgan’s work site.
They also have a practical element, posting reminders about parking restrictions along Burnaby Mountain Parkway as well as the legal procedures for anyone who chooses to be arrested by police.
On Saturday a Vancouver pizza shop used Twitter to offer a free pizza to anyone
who could show their arrest paperwork.
Another supporter sent messages to various Canadian musicians and bands calling for them to stage a benefit concert for protesters’ legal fees.
Technology also has a significant presence at the protest.
Sea Shepherd Vancouver is live-streaming video of
activity on the mountain. Workers on the Kinder Morgan survey crews are wearing small digital video cameras on their chests, as are some police officers.
But all those devices need power and there’s no electrical outlets on Centennial Way. That prompted a call by protesters for solar-powered chargers to keep their
cellphone and video camera batteries operating.
Not all the messages on social media have been supportive. Some mock the protesters. Others criticize them as hypocrites for using cars to get to Burnaby Mountain, or wearing waterproof raincoats made of synthetic fibres comprised of material derived from fossil fuels.

Planning is underway for the first phase of the Southgate redevelopment which has started the rezoning process.
Southgate is to be built on the former Safeway distribution centre property in South Burnaby. The 48-acre site is bounded by 11th and 14th avenues and 15th and 18th streets near the New Westminster border, and includes the dairy plant and two city-owned properties at 7701 and 7679 18th St.
Since council gave the concept master plan approval in principle on Oct. 27, developer Ledingham McAllister has submitted its first two rezoning applications to city hall.
One involves part of 7679 18th St. and 7701 18th St., at Griffiths Drive, next to Byrne Creek secondary school.
Both properties are currently owned by city hall and vacant with trees and shrubs.
The rezoning proposal is for a 32-storey residential highrise facing a new road, Southgate Boulevard, and a four-storey apartment building facing 18th Street, according to a city staff report.
Under the master plan, the site is designated part of the “Gateway” neighbourhood
area which would serve as a link to the area and SkyTrain station west of Griffiths. It will eventually include a new public road, an urban trail and a new landing and plaza east of the Griffiths Overpass.
A publicly-accessible east-west pedestrian trail is also proposed between Griffiths and 18th, along the north property line.
First phases of Southgate start rezoning process

VICTORIA – When the B.C. government announced its latest changes to liquor distribution, the reaction was not what I expected.
Private store representatives complained bitterly that the government is allowing further expansion of fridges and “cold rooms” in selected government liquor stores, and longer operating hours that include more Sunday openings. Those hours, along with non-union staff, are the private stores’ big advantages as things stand in B.C.’s hybrid liquor retailing system.
The B.C. Government Employees’ Union didn’t seem at all perturbed that state-run stores’ key advantage was also going to be gone effective April 1. That would be preferential wholesale pricing, in which the government’s monopoly wholesaler sells to them at cost and to private stores at higher rates.
How much higher? Liquor Distribution Branch officials were carefully vague on that, and it varies depending on which
of the 22 wholesale categories you look at. They released a graph that suggests the average wholesale cost to government stores might be going up 10 to 15 per cent to create a “level playing field” with private stores.
That wholesale price difference is the main reason private stores have generally higher retail prices. And the majority of the province’s revenue of nearly $1 billion a year comes from this monopoly wholesale business, where the hidden tax is coyly termed a “mark-up.”
When the new, simplified system comes in next spring, a bottle of hard liquor will have a “mark-up” of 124 per cent. That’s right, LDB more than doubles the price with its wholesale liquor tax. And if it’s premium booze, anything valued at more than $21 a litre will get
an extra luxury tax on top of that.
Coolers and ciders will see a 73 per cent mark-up. Wines are taxed at 89 per cent, with extra luxury tax on premium wines. Beer gets a per-litre tax with ascending rates for small, medium and large breweries. Then of course there is federal and provincial sales tax applied to all of it. Cheers!
Premier Christy Clark acknowledged that the first guiding principle of this overhaul is to keep that government revenue coming.
The new BCGEU president, Stephanie Smith, doesn’t sound like your bullhorn-toting socialist of yore. She insists she’s gung-ho to compete head to head with those private interlopers and get back some lost market share, particularly on the high-volume cold beer sales.
The union has another ace in the hole. Its current contract stipulates that LDB can’t close stores. In some small towns there are government stores that lose money, particularly since they’ve had more private
competition. But at least for the duration of this BCGEU contract, the government retail arm will continue to operate in some places as a perverse social program, subsidizing retail clerk jobs that pay nearly twice what private retail pays.
And let’s face it, running a till at a liquor store is not rocket surgery. Private and government store staff have to take the same training, and liquor inspector sting operations have increased vigilance on ID checks in all stores.
With higher wholesale prices applied to government stores, this kind of artificial support will cost more.
The only way LDB could maintain it without subsidizing it from the wholesale windfall would be to raise retail prices.
The LDB says this new simplified system is “not intended to impact consumer pricing.” Note the careful choice of words.
Oh, one last thing. There is another new tax in the works. It will be applied to higher-alcohol beverages, in an effort to reduce adverse health effects.
Liquor changes could push up prices
Many Canadians heading down to the U.S. to take advantage of Black Friday sales probably think it’s no big deal to shop outside the country. After all, many stores at local malls are U.S.-based chain stores anyways—really, what difference does it make?
Truth is, taking your hard-earned dollars out of the country does hurt Canada and here’s why: jobs and taxes. Dollars that stay in Canada keep Canadians employed. It’s that simple. Spend in Washington, you’re keeping Americans employed, and that’s a good thing—for Americans.
But your neighbours here need jobs, too, and Canadian retailers are employing your kids, your neighbours’ kids, and moms, dads and grandparents of kids who live here. These jobs enable your neighbours to pay taxes, which keeps our social welfare safety net, including health care, intact.
If that doesn’t convince you to shop local, here are a few more reasons:
• Shopping diversity: Small business owners offer unique products that you can’t get anywhere else and our marketplace would be poorer without them. Instead of heading south to shop and spending all that money on gas and food, check out one of the many local gift shops. By shopping at these small local stores, you will enrich the marketplace and ensure there are more interesting places to buy goods in your neighbourhood.
• Price check: Some products in the U.S. are cheaper but many others, such as electronics, for example, are basically the same price in the Lower Mainland.
Other issues to consider are the environmental benefits of driving less and keeping your carbon footprint small. Not only will you put your dollars to work in a way that provides economic spin-offs for your community, you won’t have to sit in a border lineup.
Now that sounds like a good deal.

COMMENTIt’s time to take a stand
When did basic human rights take a back seat to business interests?
Now, it would appear. The future of mankind is at risk of extinction as nature tries to correct the harm being inflicted on its planet by us. The brave protesters on Burnaby Mountain understand that reality and are trying to wake the rest of us and share their vision of a sustainable planet with clean air and water, essential basic human rights.
Business interests have hijacked those rights by campaign contributions (bribes) to our political leaders and all for shareholder profit, let’s call it greed.
All is not lost, however. Peaceful protest by thousands of people gets political attention and action so if you care for your children’s future well-being, go and join with other caring human beings on Burnaby Mountain and send a strong message to those who should be protecting our basic human rights.
Remember, “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil, is for good men and women to do nothing.”
Whatever you do, don’t do nothing.
Gavin WishartNew Westminster
Who are the protesters on Burnaby Mountain and when did it become their mountain?
In my 20-plus years of daily walks in the area, I haven’t seen any of them. Speaking with them last week I was told by one that he had just spent two days in jail for defying the court order at the Oppenheimer Park tent city. Has anyone bothered to ask any of these protesters who they are or where they’re from?
Of course this would lay aside the myth that this is a Burnaby uprising.
The SFU professors stand and espouse their opposition to fossil fuels.
Further up the mountain the SFU parking lots are full to overflowing, including the numerous professor-reserved spaces. Is there just a little hypocrisy here?
Is Mayor Corrigan smiling as he does when he is particularly pleased with having put one over on the public? In this case he has overloaded the poorly staffed RCMP detachment. The Abbotsford Police are a required presence to carry out the court order enforcement.
It’s unfortunate that a no-win situation created to win an election is now playing out. Meanwhile, the perpetrator sits back and harumphs about those awful job-creating private enterprises that pay the taxes.

Happy travels, protesters
Have any of the people protesting on Burnaby Mountain taken into account the 60 people how are out of work now at Horizons restaurant?
Hopefully they and their employer will sue all those involved and those that are allowing it to happen for lost wages and revenue at the restaurant.
One other thing—next time these people think it’s smart to smile for the cameras and get arrested, next time they want to go to the U.S. and are asked have you ever been arrested in Canada or the U.S., they will have to answer yes.
It will then be up to the border guard’s discretion whether they’ll be allowed to enter the U.S.
Most likely they’ll be turned back.
Same goes for a lot of other countries they might want to visit.
So good luck in your travels.

The second rezoning application is for portions of 7105 and 7205 11th Ave., at the corner with 18th Street, on the former Safeway property, said a city staff report.
The developer is proposing to build a 28-storey residential tower fronting a new road, 12th Avenue, and a four-storey apartment building facing 18th, on the site, which is currently occupied by an industrial
warehouse building, parking and loading facilities.
Located in the “Island” neighbourhood of the project, the corner of 11th Avenue and 18th Street will also feature a publicly-accessible, small park and plaza.
While the developer begins redevelopment of the former Safeway property, the milk plant will continue to operate along 18th Street for now.
A rezoning bylaw amendment
is also being sought to allow the plant, now owned by Agropur Cooperative of Quebec, as a “conforming interim use” within the Southgate project until it is eventually redeveloped as part of the Gateway neighbourhood.
Detailed plans for all the rezoning applications will be presented to council once they’re complete and ready to be presented at a future public hearing.
Detailed plans still to come
This artist rendering shows how the future development might look, looking south from Ernie Winch Park to the proposed Southgate Park that would be part of the project.

Lowest increases in six yearsWanda [email protected]
Expect Burnaby’s water and sewer rates to go up by three per cent next year if council approves staff recommendations for the hikes.
It’s the smallest increase in six years. For water rates, 2010 saw a 14 per cent hike, followed
by jumps of 11 per cent, six per cent (twice) and 5.5 per cent in 2014.
The flat rates for water for a single family home will go up by $16.35 to $561.22 if payment is made by March 15, according to a city finance report. All secondary suites or grandfathered in-law suites must pay an additional charge of 50 per cent of the flat rate.
The city sewer rate will go
up by $15.38 to $528.13 for a single-family home, if paid by March 15. As with water, secondary suites will be charged an additional 50 per cent of the home’s regular rate.
Again, the sewer rate hike will be the lowest in years. In 2010 sewer rates increased by 8.5 per cent, in 2011 it went up by 7.5 per cent, followed by years of six per cent jumps (twice) and 5.5 per cent for 2014.
The significant increases in recent years have been largely to help pay for regional water and sewer infrastructure including new water treatment facilities. The regional cost of water makes up 53 per cent of the city’s water utility budget, while regional sewerage levies make up 49 per cent of the city’s sewer utility operating costs. Replacement of aging infrastructure locally, and a program to separate combined storm water and sanitary sewers, is also ongoing.

Chanukah, Christmas and New Year’s Eve are right around the corner. That means neighborhoods, buildings and stores will soon be awash in holiday splendor. Social schedules will be full, and men and women everywhere will shuffle to complete their holiday shopping.
Grab bags are a staple of this season of giving, and the following are a few dos and don’ts to ensure participation in gift exchanges is fun and friendly for all involved.
DO set a gift amount limit. Holiday grab bags are more about having fun and exchanging a little something with friends and family members than walking away with amazing prizes. Establish a spending limit so everyone receives a gift of roughly the same value and no one feels slighted or left out.
DON’T exceed the spending limit. It can be tempting to spend more to make your gift appear more impressive. But overspending defeats the purpose of the gift exchange. Grab bags typically are anonymous, so being overly generous will not win you any style points.
DO make it a game. Tossing gifts in a bag only to have others reach in and grab one is certainly effective. But the concept can be even more fun if you make a game out of it. Try passing wrapped gifts around in a circle to a holiday song. When the music stops, the gift you are holding is the one you open. Experiment with your own variations to make gift exchanges more fun.
DON’T let anyone see the gift you bring. The idea is to keep things as secretive as possible so as not to sway the selection of presents.
DO ensure your gift is unisex. Unless you
know specifically that only men or women will be opening the presents, select items that will appeal to both genders. Food, gift cards, music, or home staples make great grab bag gifts.
DON’T forget to consider ages as well. Gift exchanges may include both children and adults, so include gifts that appeal to all ages when necessary. When the exchange has ended, allow participants to swap gifts if they want to.
DO expect some grab bag gifts to be gag gifts. Such gifts are entertaining and may make up the majority of the grab bag gifts. Keep your sense of humor and you’re likely to enjoy grab bags a lot more.
DON’T re-gift items to use as grab bag picks. Should the person who gave you the gift participate in the grab bag, he or she can trace that gift back to you and may be offended.
DO make sure everyone is aware that there will be a grab bag gift exchange, as there needs to be an equal number of gifts to participants so everyone gets a treat. Hosts may want to have a few extra wrapped gifts around just in case someone forgets to bring their contribution.
Gift exchanges in the form of grab bags, auctions, swaps, and other games make for fun additions to holiday festivities. They also can be a part of any family or friends gathering to add excitement and entertainment to the occasion.

The average person gains 10 pounds between Thanksgiving and New Year’s Day. With so many temptations gracing our holiday tables, from greasy meats and high-fat side-dishes to sugar-filled sweets which top up over-stuffed bellies, how do we stick to our healthy eating goals and keep the scale where we want it? Here are the top tips I share with my patients.
Take a healthy dish to every holiday party.
This will help ensure there is always something available for you to nibble on.
Remember the 80-20 rule.
Eat well 80% of the time and allow yourself a little indulgence 20% of the time. A small (keep it small) treat will actually keep you on track because you won’t feel deprived.
Don’t drink your calories!There can be a staggering
amount of calories in some
alcoholic drinks. Stay away from “sweet” and try a dry red wine instead. Because alcohol dehydrates the body, you need to counteract each glass with some water. We often mistake hunger for thirst.
Remember what really matters!
Holiday parties and family gatherings are for socializing, not lingering at the buffet table!
Eat a small protein-rich snack before heading to a holiday party.
This will help ensure you don’t overindulge out of hunger. You should be eating every 3-4 hours every day to maintain blood sugar—the key
to avoiding cravings. Don’t skip your workout. Maintaining your regular
workout will not only keep weight gain at bay, it will contribute to decreased stress levels (a bonus because we often eat when we’re under stress).
Get plenty of sleep. You may be extra busy, but
don’t allow your sleep to suffer. Studies show that we consume more calories when we are sleep-deprived.
And when you need a little accountability, try recording your food consumption in a food diary, challenging friends or working with a Naturopath or Nutritionist to set healthy eating goals.
Dr. Allana Polo is a Naturopathic Doctor. Dr. Polo opens her own
health clinic at 711 Columbia St., New Westminster on December 1.

The holiday season is meant to be enjoyed with family and friends, but not everyone can make it home to see their loved ones on the holidays. Commitments to work or school prevent some people from heading home for the holidays, and such situations often inspire feelings of homesickness.
Holiday homesickness may not fully hit some people until the day of the holiday, when people separated from their families miss both the company of their relatives and the holiday traditions they have enjoyed since childhood.
But there are several ways to conquer holiday homesickness so you can still enjoy this festive time of year.
Make technology work for you.
Though you might not be able to sit at the holiday dinner table with your family this holiday season, that does not mean you still can’t lay your eyes on your those closest to you.
Arrange to video chat with family members sometime during the holiday.
If you’re shipping gifts home, ask your family members to open their gifts during your video chatting session so you can see the reactions on their faces when they open their presents.
This can allow you to enjoy the thrill of seeing a loved one open the perfect present, even if you happen to be thousands of miles away as he or she tears off the wrapping paper.
Volunteer in your coMMunity.
Another way to combat holiday homesickness is to volunteer in your community.
Knowing you’re doing your part to make someone else’s holiday special can make it easier for you to be away from family on
the holiday. Whether you feed the homeless at a local shelter, distribute toys at a nearby children’s hospital or visit an assisted living facility and spend time with an equally homesick elderly person, putting a smile on someone else’s face is sure to put a smile on your own face as well.
Stay true to traditionS.
If your family adheres to certain traditions every holiday, then do your best to maintain those traditions.
Watch that holiday movie your family always watches or cook that special dish you only enjoy during the holiday season and invite your friends who also won’t be leaving town to join in the fun.
ParticiPate in coMMunity eVentS.
Loneliness on the holiday can contribute to feelings of homesickness, so make an effort to celebrate the holiday with your community.
Many communities host special holiday events, be it tree lighting ceremonies, parades or local theater performances of classics such as Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol. Participate in these events, which can lift your holiday spirit and ensure you aren’t spending the holiday alone at home.
Holiday homesickness can be a tough pill to swallow, but there are many ways for men and women to enjoy the holidays even if they won’t be able to see their families.

Get home safe this XmasDiane StrandbergBlack Press
Burnaby residents can enjoy holiday libations and get a safe ride home this holiday season thanks to Operation Red Nose.
This is the eighth year for the successful designated driver program that has raised thousands of dollars for KidSport. Co-ordinator Chris Wilson said he hopes volunteers will continue to sign up to be part of the team.
With nearly 300 people needed to put on the program in New West, Burnaby and the Tri-Cities over nine nights starting Nov. 28, Wilson is looking to community-minded volunteers to step up and provide driving services to people in all three cities.
“The time goes by really fast. You’re busy, meeting people, you’re getting fresh air,” said Wilson, who used to be a volunteer driver but now looks after the program that runs through to New Year’s Eve, the busiest night of the season.
Training and food are provided to volunteers, Wilson said, and the average shift begins at about 7:30 p.m., with an orientation at the headquarters located at the Brunette Avenue ICBC, the program’s sponsor. It generally runs until about 3 a.m. to get everyone who needs one a safe ride home.
Here’s how it works: A team of three volunteers is dispatched and the client is safely driven home in his or her own
vehicle. The client then makes a donation for the service, with the average donation of $25 to $30.
Wilson said the clients, many of whom are picked up at local bars and restaurants, are appreciative of the service.
Operation Red Nose gets drivers home safely in 13 communities around British Columbia.
The service will run the four weekends before Christmas as
well as New Year’s Eve: Nov. 28 and 29; Dec. 5 and 6, 12 and 13, 19 and 20, plus Dec. 31. The number to call for a ride is 778-866-6673.
Volunteers interested in helping out should visit operationrednosetricities.com and fill out an application. Criminal record checks are required and because the program starts soon, people are encouraged to apply for a shift as soon as possible.

The Greeting Card Association says people purchase some 6.5 billion greeting cards every year.
Of those, around 1.6 billion are Christmas cards.
Exchanging cards is a great way for people to show their loved ones that they’re thinking about them, and such cards make for festive ornaments to display around homes.
But when the holiday season ends, recycling those cards into other items can make good use of the paper resources and turn what’s normally a single-use item into an enduring trinket.
• Turn this year’s cards into next year’s gift tags. Cut out circles, rectangles or any shape you desire. Otherwise, visit the scrapbooking aisle of your favorite craft store and purchase
a paper punch to make easy work of cutting those shapes.
• Transform a greeting card into a mini puzzle for a youngster.
• Glue silly characters from Christmas cards onto a sheet of magnet. Then use these magnets for decorations next year.
• Frame favorite cards so their messages can endure year after year.
• Turn a beautiful card into a keepsake. Use a decoupage medium to attach a card to a ceramic or wood backing. Coat with a polyurethane top coat to protect it.
• Use greeting cards to make wine charms for holiday
entertaining. Guests can keep track of their glasses with ease.
• Use cut-outs of cards to improve the appearance of plain gift wrap or bags.
• Insert cut rounds of greeting cards into the inside of can lids to create crafty ornaments.
• Make a paper Christmas tree from cutouts on greeting cards.
• Encourage kids to make a photo collage from the cards they like. Mount their efforts on poster board and save for next year.
• Donate used cards. St. Jude’s Ranch recycles greeting cards by reselling them to help fund programs.

‘Made in B.C.’ legislation to address the province’s unique needsWanda [email protected]
Burnaby-Douglas MP Kennedy Stewart plans to introduce legislation in the House of Commons this week calling for a B.C.-specific affordable housing strategy.
The motion is separate from one by fellow New Democrat MP Marjolaine Boutin-Sweet (Hochelaga) calling for a national housing strategy, said Stewart in an interview.
That’s because the party received feedback that the B.C. situation is different than the rest of the country.
The main difference is that unlike other provinces, the B.C. provincial government has not carried on with rent subsidies for low-income people living in housing co-ops now that the federal government has ended its involvement.
“The [other] provinces have actually stepped up and done things but in B.C. it hasn’t happened,” Stewart said.
The motion has come about following consultation with people in low-income housing and housing co-operatives, community members and housing organizations.
British Columbians didn’t want the current situation, in which the province continues to not be involved, to continue. Hence, Stewart’s affordable housing strategy calls on Ottawa to expand federal investment in social housing and co-ops.
The situation is pressing for those in co-ops because Ottawa has pulled out and the properties’ mortgages are coming due in the not too distant future. Without the federal support, the buildings will essentially turn into strata buildings, he said.
“There’s a real concern that people are going to get kicked out of their homes that they’ve been in for a very long time,” Stewart said. “And that’s why this kind of expanded direct funding is essential.”
Most affected by the situation are seniors and people on low income who have lived in such co-ops for many years, faced
with soon having to pay market rents they can’t afford.
“We have a crisis here,” he said of housing affordability in B.C.
The federal government has downloaded responsibility for social housing to the provinces without providing funding for their upkeep, he added.
In addition to direct federal investment, the motion includes calls for measures to help prevent and reduce homelessness, to ensure housing costs don’t compromise a person’s ability to meet basic needs, and to examine the impact of investors’ property speculation and housing vacancies on real estate prices in Greater Vancouver.
“Co-ops are, we think, an integral part of the housing spectrum that we want to make sure we enhance and support,” said Stewart. If the NDP forms the government following the 2015 federal election, “we want to make sure we reinvigorate and really relaunch co-ops in Canada.”
Meantime, Stewart said his motion will help set the stage for the next election.
