TC THINGS-TO-DO GUIDE: 17Last of the outdoor summer shows

SARAH PAYNE/tHE tRi-citY NEwSIf you think this pumpkin — about 156 lb. as of Wednesday — is big, you should see the squash that’s also growing in the Inspiration Garden in Coquitlam’s Town Centre Park: It weighed approximately 319 lb. and has proven popular with park goers. Parks program leader Roberta Ward (above) says, “The squash has had its picture taken more times than a Kardashian.”

COQUITLAM’S INSPIRATION GARDEN

Great pumpkin in Inspiration Garden grows 15 lb. a daySarah PayneThe Tri-CiTy News

The Inspiration Garden in Coquitlam’s Town Centre Park is a veritable Eden these days, bursting with fulsome blooms, lush greenery and a wide vari-ety of fruits and vegetables rip-ening in the seemingly never-ending summer sun.

Among those veggies are a squash and pumpkin that have been, well, busy to say the least.

The behemoths are weigh-

ing in at 319 and 156 lb. respec-tively, and put on about 15 lb. a day — the squash gained 80 lb. in one week alone.

“The squash has had its picture taken more times than a Kardashian,” said parks pro-gram leader Roberta Ward.

The mighty gourds were Ward’s idea, thanks to a friend who grows eye-poppers that can reach well over a thousand pounds.

PoCo’s bear locks do the trick, says homeowner

TRI-CITY BEARS

shawn Lam’s can has the bite marks to prove itJaniS WarrenThe Tri-CiTy News

The city of Port Coquitlam handed out more than 12,000 Critter Guards this spring to residents whose garbage and green waste it picks up.

And at least one home-owner says the wildlife-resis-tant locks are doing their job.

Last week, Shawn Lam gave kudos to the munici-pality on social media for designing and delivering the straps that secure his green bin — the cart that holds yard clippings and kitchen waste.

He posted a photo of his organics container that had teeth puncture marks from a bear the night before. But the bin remained sealed shut.

It was the third time in recent weeks a bruin had tried to get inside the cart for a snack, Lam said. “I have found it upside down or on its side but the bear never gets in,” he wrote on Facebook.

Kristen Meersman, PoCo’s director of engineering and operations, said city staff con-tinue to monitor behaviour of bears and other wildlife as well as the effectiveness of the Critter Guards to see if more are needed.

At this point, no more are scheduled to be delivered.

Community Diversity Fund will get moneyDiane StranDbergTri-CiTy News

There are hikes all around the Tri-Cities, vigorous climbs up Eagle Mountain, pleasant trail loops, lake excursions and picturesque shoreline walks.

But the Coquitlam Crunch is in a class by itself. It’s a fitness hike with only two options.

Up or down.Alex Bell only has eyes for

the rise, however, as he once again organizes the Coquitlam Crunch Challenge, which takes place Saturday, Sept. 12.

He hopes the sixth challenge matches or beat last year’s achievement of raising $4,000 for the Community Diversity Fund run by the Coquitlam Foundation. (This year, the fund gave out its first grant to the Tri-Cities Brain Injury Support Group to help fund so-cial interaction and community recreational opportunities for brain injury survivors.)

It’s a great cause along what has to be one of Coquitlam’s most scenic walking routes.

Starting near Scott Creek middle school, the Crunch takes walkers along a 2.2 km uphill route along a BC Hydro cut line marked by information signs, decorated with nature’s bounty of wildflowers, black-berry vines and the towers and transmission lines that carry power from B.C.’s Interior to the coast.

According to clubtread.com,

the Crunch has a total distance of 5 km return, with an eleva-tion gain of 280 m. In contrast, the Grouse Grind is a 2.9 km ascent, with an elevation gain of 853 m — a little longer and a lot higher.

Although less intense than the hugely popular Grind, it gets the heart rate up, with the aver-age round walking trip about an hour. And with parts of it paved, it’s possible to do some of the route in a wheelchair.

Dozens of people visit the Crunch every day, tackling the 437 stairs installed by the city of Coquitlam, and walking or running the gravel and par-tially paved route, which fin-ishes at Eagle Mountain Drive.

On the day The Tri-City News visited the Crunch, Port Coquitlam Coun. Mike Forrest was on the trail with Pippa Van Velzen, past president of the Port Coquitlam Heritage and Cultural Society. Both had biked to the trail from PoCo.

Another group of three teenagers said the Crunch was a prelude to doing the Diez Vistas, a longer and more ar-duous mountain trail around Buntzen Lake. When asked if they were on the Crunch to get somewhere in the city or sim-ply to hike, one girl answered:

“We went up and now we’re going down.”

GREAT CANADIAN SHORELINE CLEANUP

Annual event in-cludes cleanup in PoMo on sept. 12Diane StranDbergTri-CiTy News

Tired of seeing litter along your local creek or river? Join this season’s Great Canadian Shoreline Cleanup and make a difference.

The seasonal event, which is part of a nation-wide effort jointly led by the Vancouver Aquarium and the World Wildlife Foundation, focuses on educating and empowering peo-ple to make a difference through community cleanup events.

In the Tri-Cities, there are several cleanup sites that need co-ordinators or participants, according to the website www.shorelinecleanup.ca. They range from Mundy Park to the Scott Creek trail in Coquitlam, Maple Creek in Port Coquitlam to Noons Creek in Port Moody.

With the cleanup running until Nov. 30, there are plenty of opportunities to join. In Port Moody, for instance, plans are underway for a litter pick-up event on Saturday, Sept. 12. The Port Moody Ecological Society, which runs Noons Creek Hatchery and is co-ordinating the cleanup, says help is needed between 9 and 11 a.m. that day. Volunteers are encourage to wear comfortable

clothes that can get dirty and bring three shopping bags: one for garbage, one for recycling and one for cigarette butts.

All the garbage is recorded and, in past years, more than 100 volunteers have turned out for the Noons Creek cleanup, collecting hundreds of kilo-grams of garbage along the Port Moody shoreline.

SIGN UP TO HELP• Register at www.shoreline-

cleanup.ca under Clean Up Event, Inlet Park and Noons Creek Hatchery. More infor-mation about the Port Moody Ecological Society is available at noonscreek.org

WHAT’S NEW THIS YEARThe Coquitlam Crunch has a new four-hour format this year

as well as the recreational category for individuals or families who can walk the Crunch at least once. The options are:

• Make it or Break category: Participants walk or run the trail as many times as possible between 8 a.m. and noon. Pre-register online at www.coquitlamcrunch.com or on the day in person at 7:30 a.m.

• Recreation category: This is for individuals or families and the official start time is 10 a.m., although people may arrive and participate any time between 8:30 a.m. and noon. Preregister online or register on the day.

There is an optional donation for participants of $20 for adults, $10 for youth or $40 per family but no donation of any amount will be refused and participation is welcome without a donation. (Donations to the food bank run by Share Family and Community Services will also be accepted.)

HELP NEEDED FOR CHALLENGEVolunteers and sponsors are needed to make the event

success. Among the jobs for helpers include assisting with site set-up, registration, water stations, verification stations and parking, ensuring safe road crossings along the route, tearing down tents and tables. To help, email [email protected]


‘Luckily, the city owns a crane truck’COQUITLAM’S INSPIRATION GARDEN

So, in late May, she gath-ered a bit of help, dug a pair of three-by-three-foot holes and filled them back up with some carefully mixed organic fertil-izer and two seedlings.

Since then they’ve, been fed once a week with compost tea — the liquid produced in a compost pile — and carefully tended so that just two or three

blooms actually grow into squash.

There’s just one of each now and, although they’re big, they’re not likely to reach the record-breaking weight of more than 2,000 lb.

“They’ve really slowed down in the last week, I think because the nights have been colder,” Ward said, noting the squash and pumpkins do all their growing at night. “The

really big ones that get to over 1,000 lb., supposedly you can hear them growing.”

Ward’s “babies” have been too heavy to lift for some time now so, like a doting parent, she calculates the weight by taking several measurements and comparing them to a growth chart.

“It’s amazing the amount of love and care Roberta has put into them,” said Jennifer

Urbaniak, the Park Spark program co-ordinator. “We’re kind of hoping to make them a focal point during the Harvest Festival [in October],” possibly putting them on a trailer to transport them to various loca-tions, carving up a “pumpkin boat” or just making an enor-mous pumpkin pie.

“There’s a lot of fun ideas floating around,” Urbaniak said.

Whatever happens, Ward added, “Luckily the city owns a crane truck.”

Evergreen test runs on track in Burquitlam

EVERGREEN LINE

Tri-City residents may have noticed trains running along the Evergreen Line near Burquitlam Station this week as crews work to evaluate communications systems.

On Wednesday, the Evergreen Line Rapid Transit Project released a video of a train being manually controlled by a driver as it slowly approached the newly constructed station. ELRTP said that during the testing

and commissioning phase, all trains would be controlled by operators.

Testing began last month on the completed portion of the track between Lougheed Town Centre Station and Burquitlam Station.

Work is expected to con-tinue all along the line and will include the testing of power and automatic train control systems.

Progress on other parts of the line has continued on schedule, Farrell said. The project is now 70% complete overall; stations are 70% to 85% complete and the tunnel is just over the halfway point.

TRI-CITY CRIME

Scammer told a woman he was from CRAGary McKennaThe Tri-CiTy News

Police are warning people to be cautious of telephone scammers after a fraudster at-tempted to swindle a woman in Coquitlam last week.

According to Mounties, she was contacted by man who left a message on her voicemail saying he was with Canada Revenue Agency and to call a number with a 613 area code immediately.

The woman, who is in her 50s, contacted the man, who said that police would go to her home within the hour unless she sent thousands of dollars through a money wiring busi-ness.

“Understandably, the com-plainant was concerned about the seriousness of the allega-tion left on her voicemail,” said Coquitlam RCMP Cpl. Jamie Chung.

“She did the right thing by hanging up on the male as soon as she started to doubt the legitimacy of the call.”

She then contacted police at the Ridgeway Community Police Station, who phoned the number themselves.

A Coquitlam RCMP investi-gator contacted the man, who identified himself as Roger Fitch from Surrey headquar-ters. When the investigator asked for a badge number, the suspect could not provide one and hung up immediately.

Chung said police are still working to identify the caller

but said crimes of this kind are not uncommon.

“We’ve had a number of similar frauds this year and prevention really is the key,” he said. “When a caller threatens you by saying you will be ar-rested, you know it’s probably a scam.”

About 13 calls from fraud-sters claiming to be from Canada Revenue Agency have occurred since the beginning

of the year, said Chung. He added that people who think they may be talking to a scam-mer should hang up the phone and contact the agency directly to confirm the caller’s legiti-macy.

“Don’t ever give out your personal information or send money as demanded,” Chung said.


TeeNs FACe ChArGes OVer PM VANDALisM

Several teenagers are facing mischief charges after caus-ing significant water damage at several houses in Port Moody last week.

Five people were arrested for allegedly filling recycling bins with water, leaning them up against the doors of homes, ringing the doorbells and then running away. When the homeowner opened the door, the bins would tip over and spill the contents inside the home.

But the most damaged occurred at a home where the group filled up the recycling containers with water when they left a hose on that flooded a basement.

“It was a couple thousand dollars worth of damage,” said Port Moody Police Department Const. Luke van Winkel. “The hose was turned on when they were filling and the water got into the house.”

The basement flood was discovered when officers took the five teens door-to-door to apologize to the four home-owners who were affected. That’s when the resident first noticed the extent of the damage, van Winkel said.

The incidents took place on Aug. 20 at around 1:30 a.m. Two of the five arrested are under 18 years of age and three were over 18.

Van Winkel said charges have been forwarded to the Crown for consideration but he noted that some form of restorative justice could also be used in dealing with the five suspects.

“Most likely, they’ll have them pay for the damage,” van Winkel said.

Fraser Health says immunization key

Staples fundraiser helps kids with school supplies

BACK TO SCHOOL

Among the new clothes, school supplies and other items on the back-to-school to-do list, the Fraser Health Authority is asking parents to add immunizations to the list.

Immunizations are one of the most effective medical tools available to protect chil-dren against serious vaccine-preventable diseases, accord-ing to a Fraser Health press release. But children aren’t considered fully protected until they have completed the rec-ommended immunizations.

Children between four and six years old should have up-to-date booster shots to protect against polio, tetanus, diphthe-

ria, chicken pox and whooping cough.

(On Wednesday, Alberta Health Services declared a whooping cough outbreak in northern Alberta after 182 cases were confirmed this year.)

Subsequent vaccinations are also done at school in Grades 6 and 9.

Fraser Health noted that en-suring your child is immunized

protects not only their health but those in the community as well, particularly infants who haven’t yet been immunized and are most at risk.

To make an immunization appointment call your family doctor or the public health unit (205 Newport Dr., Port Moody).


If you’re shopping for school supplies at Staples, consider donating to families in need at the checkout.

The store’s Staples Makes More Happen fundraising ef-forts are collecting money to purchase supplies for strug-gling families. Staples absorbs the packing and shipping costs, with 100% of donated money going to purchase school supplies for several local families.

“Most principals know exactly who is in need in their school and the supplies given to the school are chosen to fit the chil-dren’s needs,” said Jana Nimmo, manager of the Coquitlam Staples store, who noted there are hundreds of kids who go without even the most basic supplies. “Families have ex-pressed a huge relief in the past, to the principals, as this takes a lot of pressure off their finances at this expensive time of year.”

Until three years ago, Staples distributed school supplies donations through the Share food bank but now deals di-rectly with schools in School District 43.

The store’s goal is to raise enough money to purchase supplies for 500 children. A barbecue on Aug. 15 raised $500 and further donations are accepted at the store.

Don’t pick veggies – they go to food bank

COQUITLAM’S INSPIRATION GARDEN

Sarah PayneThe Tri-CiTy News

Staff, volunteers and nearby residents have been carefully tending the kale, grapes, to-matoes and cucumbers bask-ing in the late-August heat at Coquitlam’s Inspiration Garden and neighbouring community garden — and that’s where they’d like them to stay.

Signs have sprung up throughout both gardens ask-ing visitors to please leave the produce alone after gardeners noticed the tasty morsels kept going missing.

“A lot of people try to be help-ful, they’re walking through and they see something is ready and say, ‘I’ll pick it, nobody else is,’” said Park Spark program co-ordinator Jennifer Urbaniak. “But this is being taken care of, there’s a regular harvest and there’s a destination for the food.”

Since 2010, staff and garden volunteers have harvested ev-erything from potatoes to leeks, cabbage to arugula and basil to melons on a weekly basis. They package it and donate it to the food bank operated by Share Family and Community Services.

Last year, 1,467 lb. of food

went to Tri-City families in need. So far this year, more than 1,200 lb. has been donated.

Produce is also going miss-ing from the raised beds that run between the Inspiration Garden and the parking lot, Urbaniak said, an unfortunate occurrence since members of the public have paid to rent the beds and have been carefully tending them since the spring, eagerly anticipating the sum-mer harvests.

“I think it’s people not un-derstanding that these plots are rented… by members of the community at a cost,” Urbaniak said. “They’re paying for the seed to go in, they’re seeing them raised up since April or May and then somebody walks by and takes it. They don’t real-ize that members of the com-munity are putting in lots and lots of time to see it raised up.”

One possible solution gar-den staff have considered is

developing a sampling garden, where the public can help themselves to a bean or a sprig of mint and, hopefully, leave the community garden — and produce intended for the food bank — alone.

“One of the main functions of the Inspiration Garden is to show people what we can grow here, to inspire people to grow their own food no matter if you have a backyard, a patio garden or a small balcony,” Urbaniak said, “and for people to get that reward when the tomato plant finally produces a tomato.”

The onions and the apples, the kale and the kohlrabi at the Inspiration Garden and community gardens are being coaxed along with local families and food bank clients eagerly awaiting their harvest, so be sure to drop by for some inspi-ration — but not your dinner.

the outpouring of support and kind words I was receiving. I took the day off and felt more at ease after stopping by Como Lake and sitting calmly for about an hour.

I began to put my situation into perspective and to reframe my “would’ve, could’ve, should’ve” thinking. I realized how fortunate I was, as a therapist, to meet with incredibly resilient people who have experienced unimag-inable hardship and trauma. If they could get through and cope with their circumstances, I could deal with this. I fed off of their strength.

“Stuff is stuff,” I told myself. “It can be replaced. Life goes on.” I pondered how the situation could have been way worse.

I also chose to focus on the incredible response from family, friends, colleagues and the Coquitlam community. a profound thank you is extended to everyone who re-sponded to this situation with kindness, compassion and generosity. It made all the difference.

It’s not necessarily the situation itself but one’s percep-tion of the situation that leads to how traumatizing it will be for the individual. Everybody reacts differently to a loss and that’s oK. Here are a few ideas that can be helpful if

you experience a similar circumstance in your life:• Take time to grieve the loss. Talk or write about your

emotions.• Reach out for and accept support if you require it. • Keep your routine intact. Focus on the essentials:

sleep, nutrition, exercise and connecting with positive people.

• Incorporate strategies to boost well-being, including: breathing exercises, meditation, writing, yoga, mantras, guided imagery, gratitude exercise, connecting with na-ture, volunteering, etc.

• Try not to dwell on the past or future. Redirect your attention back to the present moment or focus on the positives — and there are always positives, no matter how small they may seem.

• Adopt an action-oriented mindset. If something can be done to improve the situation, set some goals and start to work towards them.

If the intense emotions and thoughts persist and impact your ability to engage in life, consider connecting with a clinical counsellor, psychologist or other mental health professional.

OUR OPINION

WHAT’S YOUR OPINION?

ADRIAN RAESIDE

THE GLEN DRIVE FIRE

Is the pipeline game rigged?It boggles the mind: The National Energy board is

in the midst of a public-confidence crisis yet the Stephen Harper government decides to appoint an

industry expert whose work is the keystone economic argument for Kinder Morgan’s pipeline expansion.

It begs the question: Was this incompetence or some-thing more sinister?

Surely those who chose Steven Kelly as the newest member of the NEb knew he had submitted evidence on one of the biggest files currently before the board. Surely they knew Kelly’s appointment would upset.

The NEb tells us the decision was not its yet the chair, Peter Watson, was consulted. So, it’s not like the Conservatives didn’t know Kelly’s appointment would be seen as a major conflict of interest. We understand the board needs industry experts to review these incred-ibly complex and technical files but appointing Kelly was the worst possible move.

Piledriving makes life & work tough. PCT earplugs, perhaps?

PACIFIC COAST TERMINALS

The Editor,Re. “PCT piledriving prob-

lem for some in PoMo” (The Tri-City News, Aug. 21).

Dear Pacific Coast Terminal,I live in Port Moody in a small

neighbourhood of 30 town-houses. Living in such a great city, I am fortunate that I work from a home office. I am also president of our strata council, so am also sending this email on behalf of our community.

Your first thought is likely, “Oh great, another home office complaint.” While I hope to ensure you understand the im-pact of this summer’s piledriv-ing, I also offer a potential solu-tion to make amends with the community. You have worked hard to keep the noise between specific daytime hours but for those who work from home, it has as much impact as if it were happening overnight.

When the piledriving began, I attempted to keep my win-dows all closed to soften the noise. Unfortunately, this didn’t make a difference,

and once the heat climbed, it wasn’t an option. After numer-ous conference calls answer-ing the question “What’s that noise/banging?” the team on the other end of the line re-quested I find an alternate lo-cation to work. As a result, I’ve had to spend significant time and money loitering in public office space or Starbucks.

To say the least, my produc-tivity has declined significantly and I’m entering the fall hav-ing accomplished far less than

usual. This may not seem significant but when it’s notice-able to others and affects my job performance, it matters a great deal to me.

The last few weeks have coincided with my return to graduate school, requiring a great deal of pre-course read-ing. This has been virtually im-possible to do within the Port Moody area, again requiring me to adjust schedules around the piledriving noise.

I don’t like to complain and

not offer solutions but since the work is almost over, at this stage, there is little that can be done. To make amends, what about hosting an apprecia-tion for Port Moody residents at Rocky Point at the PCT grandstand? You could require people to show Port Moody ID to attend and invite our three local breweries to be on site, who as your immediate neighbours I’m sure would appreciate the gesture as well. Combined with local music and entertainment, this could be a nice way to show your un-derstanding for the tolerance the community has displayed.

And next time, perhaps do something to reach out to your neighbours up front? Maybe PCT-branded ear plugs?Laura Watson, Port Moody

City needs dog bylaws in parks

DOGS

The Editor,Re. “Common sense?”

(Letters, The Tri-City News, Aug. 26).

The answer to Ms. Farrugia’s letter of Aug. 26 questioning her receiving of a bylaw ticket for having her dog unleashed should have been abundantly clear to her.

The existence and applica-tion of bylaws for keeping dogs on leash in public spaces is not so much a question of common sense and personal judgement, as Ms. Farrugia asserts, but a matter of per-sonal responsibility as a pet owner and citizen sharing and enjoying a public space with others in the community.

While she’s aware that her friend’s dog is aggressive and her own dog isn’t, the public she shares the park with cannot afford to make that distinction. Anyone unfortunate enough to have stepped in uncollected dog poop or have been intimi-dated — or, worse, attacked by an aggressive dog — can

attest that there are plenty of irresponsible pet owners out there, hence the need for such bylaws.

As a pet owner myself, I can sympathize with her dis-pleasure of being on the re-ceiving end of a ticket under the circumstances she de-scribed, as the officer could have shown more discretion.

The fact remains, though, that in the preceding months, the city of Coquitlam launched a very public and extensive campaign of edu-cating dog owners about the importance of keeping their pets leashed in parks and warned that enforcement would increase. Really, Ms. Farrugia should have known better.Jason Ma, Coquitlam

TRI-CITY BEARS

In 2013, city staff conceived of and manufactured the Critter Guard for PoCo resi-dents who have the 240 l and 360; carts in what is consid-ered “bear territory” — that includes homes north of Lougheed Highway and all those west of Shaughnessy Street on the south side of Lougheed Highway.

The clamping mechanism for the 240 l bins was certi-fied by the BC Conservation Foundation and, in June, the

city received the patents for the product. Now, it’s marketing Critter Guard to other munici-palities, regional districts and private business. So far, unlike Lam’s green bin, the city hasn’t received any bites, Meersman said.

Last year, conservation of-ficers recorded 935 sightings of bears in Port Coquitlam. Still, the number of bear-related conflicts has been down this summer compared to past seasons.

Statistics released by the Ministry of Environment for

April 1 to Aug. 18 for the Tri-Cities show that 856 human-wildlife conflict reports were made, 23 were attended by conservation officers and, from those, two bears were destroyed — one each in Coquitlam and Port Coquitlam — while four were hazed.

Coquitlam and PoCo were the hot spots, at 504 and 220 complaints respectively, while Port Moody had 128 calls and only one was attended by a conservation officer.

By Tom FleTcherBlack Press

B.C. is the only province where charges and convictions in provincial court are posted on a public database as well as being available to courthouse visitors.

One problem is that the information has been used by employers or landlords for criminal record checks that may find a charge but not the later acquittal. Another is post-ing the imposition of a peace bond, which can leave the false impression that someone has been convicted of an offence.

Thomas Crabtree, chief judge of the B.C. Provincial Court, is reviewing the practice of posting court records online, and is seeking public input until Sept. 18.

Court Services Online has been available since 2008, al-lowing anyone to search by name or case number to find

information on charges, court appearances and sentences.

The online information is blocked if the accused is acquitted, charges are with-drawn, a publication ban is ordered or when a pardon is later granted to seal the record of a conviction.

Absolute discharge con-viction records are removed from the public database after a year, and conditional dis-charges after three years.

A stay of proceedings means the online case file is blocked after a year, although records for all cases remain at court registries for access in person.

In a consultation memo on the issue, Crabtree notes that B.C.’s Court Services Online help desk received frequent requests to use the service as a criminal record check.

The memo says that when information on acquittals was still available, the service received “a significant num-

ber” of complaints of negative effects from public access to charges that did not lead to conviction. Some people said they only realized the infor-mation was public when they were sent a link by co-workers or employers.

The memo offers several options for dealing with peace bonds, which are ordered to restrict activities of parties in a dispute and are currently left

online indefinitely.The consultation memo is

available at www.provincial-court.bc.ca under the “news and reports” tab.

Submissions can be made by email to [email protected] or by mail to: Office of the Chief Judge, Provincial Court of B.C., 337-800 Hornby Street, Vancouver B.C. V6Z 2C5.

Coquitlam company knows the drillTRI-CITY BUSINESS

Sarah PayneThe Tri-CiTy News

A Coquitlam-based business is vying for a chance to show off its horizontal directional drilling skills in Kentucky next month but needs more votes to get there.

Reached three metres under-neath a sidewalk at Robson and Richards streets in downtown Vancouver, Chuck Ulmer of Ulmer Contracting said while there are thousands of compa-nies throughout North America that perform directional drill-ing, not many specialize in it.

“We’re one of the few com-panies that do,” Ulmer said. “We’ve put pipe where you can’t believe you could put pipe.”

Ulmer started the company 30 years ago, when the work was done by hand with crews crawling into tunnels to dig out material with a shovel. The work changed significantly

when directional drilling ma-chines came on the market about 10 years ago.

Heavy equipment manu-facturer Vermeer BC launched the Ultimate Crew contest to shine a spotlight on the skills of directional drillers; Ulmer Contracting is one of eight fi-nalists, and the only Canadian company, to be in the running for the title.

Finalists with the most votes will get a free trip to the International Construction and Utility Equipment Exposition in Kentucky next month to compete in a skills competi-tion at the Vermeer booth. The crew that demonstrates “su-perior drill skills, strength and

endurance” will be crowned the Ultimate Crew and will get to use a new Vermeer D24x40 Series II drill for a year.

Ulmer’s crew works on proj-ects for municipalities through-out the Lower Mainland, where the biggest challenge is often changing ground conditions and navigating around a com-plex network of existing utilities.

“Most of it is working to-gether,” Ulmer said. “It’s pretty dangerous if you don’t know the people…It’s another job that looks easy but when you go to do it, it’s heavy work, it’s dirty work. You can get hurt pretty seriously with the power of these rigs.”

Ulmer applauded the skills

of his crew and the company’s commitment to customer ser-vice. “The job has to be done absolutely right,” he said, noting crews have to get the work done within the smallest footprint possible, particularly in a busy area like downtown Vancouver.

“We drop under the side-walk, put a steel plate over top and people walk over top of us while we’re working. That’s what it’s all about now… We can’t inconvenience Joe Public, they have to get their Starbucks.

“It matters that I make money but it’s not the absolute end-all and be-all,” he said. “We have to provide a service to these clients, and I look after them.”

• To see profile videos of Ulmer Contracting and the other finalists, and to vote by Aug. 30, visit www.navigatorna-tion.com/contest/ultimate-crew.

Developers looking to ob-tain demolition permits in Coquitlam will have to ensure the buildings facing the wreck-ing ball are free of rats and ver-min before tearing them down.

The new rules go into effect Sept. 1 and require builders to provide a report to staff certify-ing that a building has been in-spected prior to coming down.

Jim Bontempo, the city’s manager of building permits, said staff research found that a large number of pest com-plaints came from homes ad-jacent to recently demolished buildings.

“Our environmental section in engineering began looking into it a little deeper,” he said. “There was a loose correlation.”

Under the new rules, de-velopers will have to hire a pest control professional at an estimated cost of between $350 and $500, depending on the size and scope of the job. Once confirmation is provided that the building is clear or rodents, the demolition permit is issued by the city.

A map included in a city staff report, which council in July voted unanimously to adopt, shows rodent calls concen-trated in southwest Coquitlam, where 90% of the city’s demo-litions have occurred. In six specific instances, staff found that rodent calls occurred next door or very near properties where buildings were recently taken down.

The rules are not unique in Metro Vancouver. North Vancouver has similar rules for larger-scale developments and if a city staff person in Surrey sees evidence of rats on a property they will require an inspection.

Many councillors heard about the issue while knocking on doors during last fall’s elec-tion campaign. Bontempo said that is what prompted staff to look into the matter.

In 2014, there were 71 rodent calls in Coquitlam, making up 76.3% of all pest-control reports. Three tickets were issued and seven warning letters were sent to residents who were careless with animal attractants.

But while the new rules will help mitigate some of the rodent issues in the city, it will not eradicate pests. The number one attractant for rats and vermin, Bontempo said, is unsecured food sources and homeowners need to do their

part to limit the problem.“This program is not going

to eradicate the rat problem,” he said. “It really is about

educating everyone out there, including the public.”

Water quality: What it means to keep it cleanTHE ENVIRONMENT

We discharge human waste, animal waste and chemical sub-

stances into the environment at such a rate that even some of our largest lakes and river systems, including the Great Lakes and the St. Lawrence River, are severely compro-mised in maintaining water quality sufficient to sustain aquatic life.

In light of our exceptionally hot dry summer, we need to conserve not just the quantity of water we consume but its quality too.

Humans tend to think of water in terms of its uses. Is this lake safe to swim? Is this water safe enough to drink?

Scientists determine water quality by the types and amounts of substances dis-solved and suspended in the water, and what effects those substances have on living organisms. It is the concentra-tions of these substances that

determine the water quality and, therefore, its suitability for different purposes.

Drinking water, for example, is regulated by stringent guide-lines to protect human health. Lack of such guidelines can lead to various health prob-lems.

Our ongoing land develop-ment activities, however, com-bined with our daily consump-tion habits affect the quality of water both near and far since we consume goods and ser-vices from around the world.

And every process requires

water, resulting in wastewater.

WATER FACTSHere are some facts about

water quality:• Roughly 57% of Canadians

are served by wastewater treat-ment plants (versus 74% of Americans, 86.5% of Germans and 99% of Swedes).

• In developing nations, 80% of diseases are water-related.

• 26% of Canadians rely on groundwater for domestic use.

• One drop of oil can render up to 25 l of water unfit for drinking.

• One gram of lead in 20,000 l of water makes it unfit for drinking (older homes often contain plumbing made of lead or soldered in lead, which can then leach into water).

• One gram of 2,4-D (a com-mon household herbicide) can contaminate 10 million litres of drinking water.

• One gram of PCBs can cause up to one billion litres of water to be unsuitable for freshwater aquatic life.

• Fertilizer nitrates promote excessive algal and aquatic plant growth in freshwater

systems, reducing available oxygen for other forms of life (e.g., fish).

WATER TIPSNow, here are some prac-

tices we can adopt to help pro-tect our water:

• Use non-hazardous house-hold and garden products. Look for the Environmental Choice EcoLogo (industries.ul.com/environment) and ask retailers for environmentally benign options. Check out www.planetnatural.com/product-category/natural-pest-control for lots of great information.

• Use natural products to clean your house and laundry. A few drops of Castile soap in a bucket of hot water does wonders for surfaces and floors. Diluted white vinegar is all you need to shine glass surfaces and disinfect the bathroom. And bicarbonate of soda provides the right amount of natural abrasion to do sinks, toilets and tubs. For laundry, try Mission’s VIP unscented soap products.

• Avoid mainstream lotions and potions. Many skincare products (shampoos, soaps, moisturizers, antiperspirants, etc.) contain chemicals that are toxic in cumulative quanti-ties and fragrance is often a petrochemical product. With every shower, these foreign

substances make their way into our aquatic environment. Check out the David Suzuki Foundation’s information at www.davidsuzuki.org/issues/health/science/toxics/dirty-dozen-cosmetic-chemicals.

• Volunteer with local stewardship groups to help restore and preserve streams, wetlands and riparian areas. Mother Nature has proven her resilience when given the chance to restore her vital eco-system services — the marvel-lous means by which living or-ganisms (plants, bacteria, etc.) work together to purify our air, soil and water.

• Encourage your city council to promote low-impact de-velopment (LID) by adopting corresponding policies. By addressing stormwater runoff close to the source, LID can enhance the environment and protect public health while saving developers and local governments money. See www.nrdc.org/water/pollution/storm/chap12.asp for details.

Melissa Chaun of Port Moody is an ecologist with a passion for all things sustainable. She began her environmental career in the U.S.

and has a certificate in Sustainable Community Development. She

Greendrinks. Her column runs monthly.

W ith students head-ing back to school in just over a week,

BC Children’s Hospital is sharing tips on how to help children deal with anxiety and stress.

While some children and youth embrace back-to-school excitement, others need help easing into the school-year routine, accord-ing to a BCCH press release.

Some common worries for children include difficult classes, making new friends and meeting and adjusting to a new teacher. These worries are normal when introducing your child to a new school experience or changing their routine.

Dr. Jane Garland, a psy-chiatrist with BC Children’s Hospital, recommends par-ents plan ahead to help ease the back-to-school transition. Whether it is your child’s first day at school, or if they are having a hard time adjusting after summer break, gradu-ally exposing them to their environment can make a big difference.

Resources for children and parents:.

• AnxietyBC: Information on how anxiety can express itself and effective strategies to ad-dress it in children, youth and young adults.

• Kelty Mental Health Resource Centre: Information and resources on mental

health and substance use for children, youth and families, or call 604-875-2084 or toll-free 1-800-665-1822 to speak to a parent or youth support person with experience with mental health challenges.

• MindShift: An interactive app designed to help youth learn how to relax, develop more

helpful ways of thinking, and identify steps that will help them take charge of their anxiety.

• mindcheck.ca: An interac-tive website designed to help youth and young adults age 13-25 to check out how they’re feeling and quickly connect to mental health resources and support.

Back-to-school anxiety? Tips for parents & caregiversBACK TO SCHOOL & MENTAL HEALTH

PARENT TIPSTips for parents and caregivers:.• Introduce children to the school year routine one to two

weeks before school starts.• Plan for transitions — getting to school, returning to

school after breaks.• Provide regular routines — morning, school, homework

and bedtime.• Provide clear expectations, limits and consequences.• Hold realistic expectations that are right for your child’s

age.• Help your child identify his or her feelings — nervous,

intimidated, shy.• Pay attention to your child’s feelings.• Ask your child if they have ideas or solutions for a par-

ticular concern.• Show yourself identifying your own feelings, problem

solving and being brave.• Remain calm when your child is anxious.• Praise and reward even their small accomplishments

HELP NEEDED?Consider seeking more help if your child:• attempts to remain at home or with a caregiver;• refuses to attend school on certain days (field trips);• refuses to eat in public or to use public bathrooms;• constantly worries;• constantly seeks comfort and reassurance;• shows extreme shyness, avoiding social situations;• has physical complaints with no medical explanation

(stomach aches, headaches, difficulty catching breath);• throws tantrums, cries or screams excessively.

Burke hosts a Site C talk

COMMUNITY GROUPS

LITERACY

The Site C dam has a long and convoluted history, dating from its first proposal the mid-1970s to the start of ground clearing for construction this month.

And the debate is continues.Port Moody biologist

Adrienne Peacock, who has lived in the Peace Valley and has followed the controversial project closely since the 1980s, will give a slide show at the September meeting of the Burke Mountain Naturalists; her pre-sentation will outline the history of dam building in northern

B.C. and the history of the Site C dam in particular. The focus of her talk will be the wildlife and wildlife habitats that will be lost by the flooding an 83 km stretch of the Peace River.

The BMN meeting will be held at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 8 in the hall of Como Lake United Church located on the corner of Marmont Street and King Albert Avenue in Coquitlam. Everyone is welcome to attend and there is no charge.

For more information, call 604-936-4108 or 604-461-3864, or visit www.bmn.bc.ca.

With many people wary of solicitors knocking on their door, the BC Cancer Foundation is getting the word out that its people are, indeed, in the community — but they’re not asking for cash on the spot.

In a release, the founda-tion says door-to-door can-vassers are currently in the Tri-Cities. Canvassers will introduce local residents to the BC Cancer Foundation, the largest funder of cancer research in the province, and the monthly donor program. Monthly dona-tions support the research taking place at the BC Cancer Agency.

For security and safety

purposes, canvassers wear ID badges and BC Cancer Foundation purple vests.

BC Cancer Foundation canvassers will invite residents to take part in the foundation’s monthly giving program only and will not accept cash or one-time gifts at the door. Once you have signed up for monthly gifts, you will receive an email confirma-tion immediately.

If you have any questions relating to BCCF’s door-to-door program, partner in discovery monthly giving program or a fundraiser, call Colleen Malli at 1-888-906-2873 or visit bccancer-foundation.com.

While many people in Port Moody have probably heard the

piledriving going on for many weeks at the Pacific Coast Terminals (PCT) site along the south shore of Burrard Inlet, I think most residents remain unaware of the massive 10-sto-rey building on the waterfront that will be the outcome.

The new building will be a storage shed for potash to be shipped from PCT starting late next year. While I am pleased to see PCT shift from shipping coal to a more environmen-tally-benign product, I do feel the public consultation aspects of this project could have been improved.

The potash will come from a new mine near Moose Jaw, Sask., to be shipped overseas for use as fertilizer and indus-trial purposes. Shipping of sulphur is slowly decreasing because sulphur is a byprod-uct of sour natural gas wells in Alberta and these wells are now reaching exhaustion.

As a replacement product, potash seems like a good alter-native. One problem with pot-ash is that it must be kept dry as it is readily soluble in water and highly corrosive once it gets wet. Thus, a large new storage shed is required.

This building will be 264 m long and exceedingly high at its peak: 34 m.

No doubt, some people will consider it to be an eyesore on the waterfront; some will certainly have their waterfront views affected. The building will be painted a dark green to help it blend into the hillside and this will certainly help.

The immense size of this building was announced at a PCT public consultation ses-sion last September, when people were asked what colour they would like the building painted. But only a few people attended this meeting and, for many people, comprehending that a 34 m height is equivalent to a 10-storey building can be a challenge. Moreover, this was not explicitly stated at the meeting.

But while I am not thrilled at the thought of gazing at this new 160-million-tonne-capacity storage shed right on the waterfront, I am more concerned about impacts on the environment from this expansion. Because more rail cars will be coming into the facility, additional stor-age for empty rail cars will be required. To achieve this, PCT intends to expand its rail track into the intertidal and subtidal areas of the inlet all the way from the facility west to Reed Point Marina. This will result

in the loss of a considerable amount of valuable shoreline and aquatic habitat.

The intertidal area is one of most important habitat types in the Inlet. These shal-low areas are very productive in terms of food production so many fish forage in these areas; some species such as surf smelt and sand lance use this habitat for spawning. The new rail line will extend for a half a kilometre so a consider-

able amount of habitat will be destroyed. Building into an area that is now part of the Inlet will require considerable rock and fill so PCT proposes to barge this material in. To store this material, it proposes creating a storage site it calls “Reed Island” in Burrard Inlet close to the shoreline, where the track will be extended. During construction, the is-land will be connected to the shoreline so trucks can haul

material from it. Once the work is completed, the connection to south side of the Inlet will be severed and the island, with its fish-unfriendly rip-rapped shores, will be left as “habitat compensation.”

Unfortunately, the subtidal area PCT has decided to bury appears to be a unique part of the ecosystem of Burrard Inlet. Studies conducted by the city of Port Moody and volunteers a few years ago discovered that while

the area doomed to become an island represents only 3% of the subtidal mudflats in Port Moody Arm, it is the exact area where ocean-going coastal cutthroat are found 75% of the time.

Moreover, this is also the exact area where the largest and oldest pink sea stars in the world have been found, as well as unusually large gaper clams, velvet snails and a species of marine worm for which this area is the only known location in Canada.

Indeed, it would appear this particular subtidal area appears to be an especially significant portion of the eco-system in Port Moody Arm. Somehow, all this documented information eluded PCT and its consultants when they undertook an environmental assessment. But they could have easily obtained this in-formation simply by talking to volunteers at the Burrard Inlet Marine Enhancement Society. Sadly, as noted in its report on public consultation to Port Metro Vancouver, the only community group PCT bothered to consult with was the local Rotary Club.

People have been led astray by the fact that PCT’s project received “approval” from the federal Ministry of Fisheries and Oceans. Please keep in mind that, since the Stephen Harper government eviscer-ated the Fisheries Act in 2012,

Fisheries and Oceans Canada officials are no longer allowed to protect fish habitat. With fish habitat protection now elimi-nated from the Act, officials are only permitted to “prohibit ac-tions that would cause serious harm to fisheries.”

Fish habitat is something that can be seen, touched, measured and photographed; its loss is easily determined.

In contrast, “serious harm to fisheries” is an extremely vague concept that we could spend millions of dollars to have lawyers argue over in courts for years.

In other words, it is useless language unless your intention is to hoodwink the public.

In my view, we will continue to see projects come forward that will damage vital fish habi-tat until the federal Fisheries Act can be restored to once again allow fish habitat to be protected. Until then, we will witness one project after an-other that will nibble away at vital habitat until we will have hardly anything left. While PCT appears to be abiding by the new rules, it certainly could have done a vastly better job at public consultation.

tion/education chair of the Burke Mountain Naturalists and member

Moody Ecological Society.

What’s Happening in Vancouver’s“Entertainment District” Crosstown?

services with the City of Vancouver, says that after an intensive two-year study, the process could receive final approval to move forward in September. “We are meeting weekly with Concord Pacific to work out details for the new road system and other infrastructure.”

The City’s post-viaduct vision is an ambitious one. “Once the viaduct is removed, we will be able to take Georgia Street down to grade at Pacific,” Jackson explains. “It will open up the entire area and will allow us to create a ceremonial street giving water-to-water access from False Creek to Lost Lagoon.” He also anticipates a Fisherman’s Wharf-style dock and boardwalk filled with a diverse array of restaurants and boutique retail.

Rising from the GroundAlthough Concord Pacific declined

to reveal details about what will happen to its lands under the viaducts, there’s no question this developer will remain an integral part of the fabric of this new district. One Pacific’s eye-catching, ocean-wave facade is now easily viewable as the 435-unit, 21-storey luxury condo building continues to rise out the ground between Cambie Bridge and BC Place

I t’s where five of Vancouver’s favourite neighbourhoods rub shoulders – the convergence of

Yaletown, Gastown, Chinatown, False Creek and downtown. Yet despite its unique waterfront setting, Crosstown has as yet never developed a clear sense of identity. True, sporting and cultural events like the Stanley Cup, Cirque du Soleil or rock concerts attract big crowds to BC Place and Roger’s Arena… but few of those fans remain after the final curtain call or shoot-out.

However, over the past few years, change is definitely in the air. And Kevin Hoffman, senior vice-president of the Aquilini Group, is one of the many industry insiders who are excited that, after well over three decades, Crosstown is finally finding its stride as the city’s sports and entertainment district.

Mixed-Use and Resort Development

The company has already completed Aquilini Centre West, a 26-storey tower that connects directly to the Rogers Arena concourse and is the first of three purpose-built rental buildings with lower-level retail and commercial

components. The south tower has broken ground, and the east tower, which will rise above the location of the current Canucks Store and give enhanced access to the stadium, is expected to be underway soon. Hoffman also notes there is a strong possibility of a fourth tower, although there are no details yet available.

Poised to become a neighbourhood highlight is Parq Vancouver, a $600 million joint venture laying claim to becoming the province’s largest private development. This 62,000-square-foot “urban resort” will be located adjacent to BC Place and will feature event and conference space including Vancouver’s largest ballroom. In addition to being the new home of the Edgewater Casino, it will house two luxury hotels – BC’s first JW Marriott hotel and a Marriott International Autograph Collection hotel named The Douglas.

A Viaduct-Free VisionCausing a flurry of excitement is

Vancouver’s anticipated decision to remove the Dunsmuir and Georgia Street viaducts. Brian Jackson, general manager of planning and development

– an iconic harbinger of the estimated $1.3 billion of development the company is expected to invest by the time it has built out the massive masterplanned community here.

The next phase of that will be the 620-unit Arc Vancouver, the developer’s pair of 28- and 30-storey multicoloured towers to be built opposite One Pacific at the northwest end of the Cambie Bridge. Three three-storey “skybridges” connecting the two towers will also contain apartment units. A plaza will run underneath the Cambie Bridge and offer a pedestrian link between Arc Vancouver and One Pacific, joining the developments.

“I see the same kind of untapped potential in Crosstown that existed in Yaletown when it was just a few towers and the Roundhouse,” Hoffman says. “Vancouver is known for its ability to successfully create neighbourhoods with a mix of housing types, and that’s what’s happening now in Crosstown. In 10 to 12 years, I believe this will be one of Vancouver’s most diverse, lively and sought-after communities.”

ROBERT MCDONALD PHOTOTeams from around the city took part in a friendly volleyball tournament in Port Coquitlam last weekend. Approximately six clubs faced off on three courts.

SPIKE THE BALL

Minto series tied up again after A’s win

JUNIOR LACROSSE

Jr. Adanacs’ come back from being down two goals GARY MCKENNATri-CiTy News

The 2015 Minto Cup series was expected to be a defensive affair but so far Wednesday night’s game has been the best illustration of how stingy these two teams are.

The Coquitlam Jr. Adanacs were down 4-2 with six min-utes left in the game when Matt Symes was finally able to break the Six Nations Arrows defence and pot a goal.

Just over a minute later, Andy Campbell managed to do the same after being setup by Chris Cloutier to tie the game before Jean-Luc

Chetner helped the club to a lead with three minutes left to go, again assisted by Cloutier.

The 5-4 score held until the buzzer, tying the up the best of seven series for the Adanacs.

But the flurry of goals in the third was rare Wednesday night in game where the final tally looked more like hockey than a lacrosse score.

The Arrows got on the board first with a marker from Austin Staats five minutes into the game and James Rahe followed up six minutes later to make it 2-0 for the home squad. Chase McIntyre was able to get Coquitlam on the board after being setup by Mike Rybka before the first period was finished and Six Nations took a 2-1 lead into the middle frame.

Caps sign Chung to UsL contract

SOCCER

Player came up through resi-dency programGARY MCKENNAThe Tri-CiTy News

Port Coquitlam soccer player Kadin Chung is going pro.

The 16-year-old athlete signed a professional con-tract with the Vancouver Whitecaps USL squad (Whitecaps FC 2) on

Wednesday afternoon after four years in the pre-resi-dency program.

Kadin started with the club as a 12 year old in 2011, eventually moving up to the under-16 team and now to the under-18 club.

He was introduced this week along with two other players, midfielder Thomas Gardner of North Vancouver and midfielder/striker Terran Campbell of Burnaby.

First pro contract for young PoCo player

SOCCER

“We’re thrilled to see three more local players progress through our residency pro-gram and earn professional opportunities with the club,” said Whitecaps FC residency technical director Craig Dalrymple. “Credit to our technical staff for their contin-ued excellence in developing young players. Kadin, Thomas, and Terran deserve this op-portunity, and we look forward to continuing to help them de-velop through the next stages of their careers.”

Last season, all three of the newly signed Lower Mainland players participated in the club’s United States

Development Academy Northwest Division team under-16 champions. This seas, the trio also took part in the Whitecaps FC under-18 residency.

Chung started in 58 of 67 games with the USSDA over the past three seasons and scored two goals. He has also made six appearances and scored one goal for Canada at the 2015 CONCACAF under-17 championship.

He also started in 34 of 35 appearances this season with the under-16 club.

[email protected]

Coquitlam briefly tied things up eight minutes into the second period when Cole Shafer, who has had a strong series with the A’s, potted his first of the game.

But two goals in a row put the Arrows in the driver seat for the last part of the

game, before the A’s were able to bounce back and take the lead. Adanacs goalie Christian Del Bianco turned away 36 of the 40 shots he faced, while Arrows netminder Doug Jamieson stopped 46 of 51. Things did not go as well for the Adanacs on Tuesday, when the club fell behind early

and eventually surrendered the 8-5 win to the Arrows.

Six Nations were domi-nant in the first half, building up a 6-2 lead in the second and the Adanacs could not dig themselves out of the hole. The next game was scheduled for Thursday night, after The Tri-City News’ deadline.
