Another fight is brewing between Rich-mond city council and Onni Group

— only this time, the developer is on theoutside of the ring looking in.

The protagonists in this bout, are theowners of Steveston-based GenerationDaycare, Mike and Agnes Lewis, and theirparent clientele.

The daycare owners were given notice inApril by their landlord at their current siteon 12320 Trites Road, just southwest ofNo. 2 Road and Moncton Street, that they

needed to vacate on Sept. 30, as the sitewas being demolished ahead of a bid torezone from light industrial to residential toallow 30 single-family units to be built.

Since then, Mike and Agnes have beenscouring the community for a replacementsite and have been working with City ofRichmond staff on finding a new locationthat would allow them to continue to offerbefore- and after-school care.

And when city staff “surprisingly” di-rected them towards Onni and its many va-cant Imperial Landing rental properties onBayview Street on Steveston’s waterfront,Mike thought he was onto a winner.

“Knowing the history between Onni andthe city, I was surprised (the city suggested

Onni), and I didn’t want to get into themiddle of their fight; but I was told ‘maybeyou should give them a call’ and was giventhe numbers for Onni,” said Mike.

“And as there seems to be no otherspace in Steveston and even the closestones — at Steveston Highway and No. 5Road and at Westminster (Highway) andNo. 2 Road — are unsuitable on many lev-els, I thought I might as well contact Onni.”

Onni and city council have been at log-gerheads for more than 10 years over theMixed Maritime Use (MMU) zoning at thesite, which the developer has been tryingin vain to amend to allow for non-maritimebusinesses to rent their properties.

Aproperty manager who recently erecteda Chinese-only sign on No. 3 Road, to

seek managers for a new wholesale foodwarehouse said he, as well as the company,didn’t think to include English, or any otherlanguage for that matter.

“We haven’t thought about that before,”said Jesse Chung, who said he worked forWTM, a property management firm.

After community activist Kerry Starchuk —who petitioned for bilingual signage through-out Richmond in 2013 — raised concernson her Facebook page Changing RichmondNeighbourhoods, the Richmond News con-tacted Chung by calling the number listed onthe sign, which has since been removed for anon-language related bylaw infraction.

The News relayed the numerous concernsthat such signage was preventing non-Chi-nese speaking citizens from accessing jobs.

“When we put up the sign, we just wanted

to ask those interested person. I think I gotyour meaning that if people don’t speakChinese, you don’t know what is advertised,”

said Chung, adding, “Our first priority is tofind the right people. At very first we justthought about putting up a Chinese sign.”

The site in question is the old Pet Culturebuilding. Starchuk said this is yet anotherexample of exclusive signage in Richmond’sChinese community.

“We need to understand one another. Nowthat I know it’s for hiring people, it is prob-ably worse than the real estate signs becausepeople need jobs,” said Starchuk.

Last year, the City of Richmond held around of public consultation on Chinesesignage. Council decided not to enact abylaw mandating English. Since 2012, thecity noted just 4.5 per cent of regulated signswere non-English (although to be consideredbilingual a sign needn’t be fully translated).

Starchuk said the issue has expanded toother areas. She has taken issue with not justcity-regulated business signs, but real estateconstruction billboards and advertising on

buses, transit shelters and leaflets.The city is in the midst of preparing a “clut-

ter bylaw,” which would eliminate many adsin storefront windows. A new sign bylaw in-spector has recently started a one-year term.

Starchuk said the situation has yet to beresolved and complaint-driven action is notworking.

Coun. Derek Dang said otherwise, citing thecity’s education efforts.

Dang, a liaison for the city’s economic ad-visory committee, said he wasn’t sure if suchsignage could have an impact on the localeconomy and job opportunities.

Dang called it a “complex” issue that re-quires “some thought in handling this withoutinsulting either side,” and without going“Donald Trump” on the matter.

Coun. Chak Au, said he was “very con-cerned” but did not think the sign represent-ed an escalation of any sorts.

There is, however, an education componentto the MMU zoning and the daycare own-ers and Onni, according to Mike, came toan agreement to rent the 5,600 square footspace. And, in order to comply with the MMUeducation component, Generation Daycarewas going to rebrand with a maritime themeand incorporate Steveston’s maritime heritageinto its programs.

Unfortunately, according to the city, itwasn’t enough to meet the zoning’s educa-tional standards, which states any programingmust be a K-12 program licenced under theSchool Act.

As such, Generation’s business licenseapplication for the Onni site was denied andthe owners, along with several of their parentcustomers, will present their case in personat an appeal hearing in front of mayor andcouncil on June 27.

“We totally rebranded, changed our logoto call it the Generation Maritime Centreand were willing to do things that broughtSteveston’s maritime heritage into our pro-grams,” explained Mike.

“Things such as bringing people in to dotalks on the history, for example.

“But it was felt that it didn’t fall enough un-der the educational component of the zoning;their definition of education falls under theSchool Act. We’re a learning centre, whichdoesn’t fall under the Act.

“But we’ve been doing a little bit of re-search, and many businesses in Stevestonhave had amendments to their zoning.”

Ahead of next week’s make-or-break appealat city hall, Agnes has been busy working onan improved business plan, steeped evenmore in Steveston’s maritime history, in a des-perate bid to convince city council to make aconcession for the 50 or so Homma elemen-tary families that rely on their service.

“It’s a reasonable rent for the space and wewould be able to take on more children fromwait lists that already exist in the area,” Agnestold the Richmond News on Monday.

“We’re going to present (council) with a newbusiness plan; with more maritime heritageeducation in the programing, includingmaritime field trips. The parents and childrenare going to be there also and will likely havesomething to say.

“It’s kind of (our last hope). It’s the onlyviable space in the area; everything else isalready leased out or is unsuitable.

“The only other thing we can hope for is, ifour current site is developed, the city makesthe developer build a daycare for us to go inthere, but that could be years down the line.”

City council, added Agnes, has to “considerthe effect saying ‘no’ will have on the com-munity.

“They’ve made adjustments to other busi-ness zonings across the city, but not for uswith Onni.”

City spokesperson Ted Townsend said

Generation’s business licence applicationwas denied because the use they proposed,child care, is not permitted under the existingzoning.

“Staff does not have authority to overridethe bylaw definition,” said Townsend in anemail to the News.

As of Tuesday, the daycare has collectedabout 350 e-signatures on a petition, urgingthe city to relax the rules.

Kevin Skipworth, whose eight-year-old songoes to the daycare, said it’s time for citycouncil to put the parents and children first.

“This is childcare that needs to be providedin Steveston and it’s going to leave parentsstruggling to put their children into daycare,”

said Skipworth on Tuesday.“The city has the ability to relax that part

of the zoning. I’ve been looking throughdevelopment permits for the last few years inSteveston and there has been in the region of200 to 250 new developments; that’s a lot ofpeople and a lot of children and things haveto change.

“There’s no space in Steveston, other thanthe Onni site. It fits and it’s not as if thereneeds to be a rezoning.”

Generation, said Skipworth, doesn’t just dobefore and after-school care, “they take thekids for the whole of July, pro-D days, someof Christmas and spring break.

“For all the parents that are both workingor can’t afford to put their kids into expensivecamps in the summer and holidays, this is avital service.

“Council has the power to deal with this;they have to deal with this.”

Skipworth added that, should Generation’sbid to move into the Imperial Landing site berefused after appeal, he has no back-up planfor childcare in the fall.

“This is the only elementary age daycare inthe area that takes kids to and from school;the others have waiting lists,” he said.

“Who knows, we may have to look at leavingthe area.”

Onni’s Brendan Yee said he wasn’t autho-rized to comment.

No one else from the company contactedthe News by press time.

Dang warns about going ‘Donald Trump’Chinese-only help wanted sign crosses the line for some

Owner says it's the only viable space in the area

Au said the sign was less“debatable” than a restau-rant sign because it soughtemployees.

The Richmond Chamberof Commerce, when reached

for comment, stated it hadoffered the company transla-tion services. The companydeclined.

The chamber had nocomment on the economicimplications for such signage.

Chung said Friday he

would have the wholesalecompany contact the Newsfor further explanation. Thecompany failed to contact thenewspaper by Tuesday.

Starchuk said the sign hasgenerated lots of negativereaction.

The City of Richmond has filed a court ap-plication to put down the pit-bull involved

in a biting incident last week.The Richmond News reported last week

how, according to police, the 15-month-olddog, named Hugo, “mauled” the face of a56-year-old woman, who was visiting herfriend’s home in south Richmond.

The victim had to undergo emergency facialsurgery and was released from hospital soonafter. However, the woman in charge of thedog, Vafa Nejad, claimed the entire incidentwas an accident, as Hugo was simply go-ing after a strap hanging from the woman’shandbag.

On Tuesday, the city said that, in light of thedog owner — officially Nejad’s son — refus-ing to sign an agreement to have Hugo put tosleep, a petition has been filed at RichmondProvincial Court for an order for destruction ofthe pit-bull.

“We feel the dog poses an ongoing threat topublic safety and that euthanization is neces-sary to prevent the possibility of future attacksby this animal,” said city spokesman TedTownsend in an email to the News.

“Provincial legislation prescribes our actionat this point. Without voluntary agreement bythe owner, our only legal option to proceed isto seek (the order).”

The next step, added Townsend, is to get acourt date set.

When heard in court, the judge has a

variety of options, such as agreeing with theeuthanization, rejecting the application out-right, or alternatives, such as more training forthe dog and owner, additional conditions oncontrolling the dog or removing the dog fromthe existing home/owner.

At any time, said Townsend, the dog ownerhas the option of voluntarily complying withthe city’s proposed action, negating the needfor a court hearing.

An emotional Nejad, however, told theNews on Tuesday, that the family would befighting the city in court to save Hugo’s life.

“He’s part of the family,” she said, addingthat they’re in talks with the University of B.C.student lawyer service.

Nejad told the Richmond News last weekhow she and her son were warned twomonths ago by the City of Richmond afterHugo bit their landlord. She claimed her dogis a “very friendly puppy, who just doesn’tknow his strength.”

And she claimed that last week’s victim andher daughter have already called the city toexplain that the incident was an accident andare pleading not to have Hugo put down.

Hugo, a 15-month-old pit-bull terrier, re-mains at RAPS shelter, following the incident.

The family had questioned the right ofthe police to seize Hugo at the time of theincident.

However, Richmond RCMP made it clearthat they were only there in a public safetycapacity and it was the city’s bylaw officerwho took possession of Hugo.

Townsend said the city is “satisfied that thedog was seized appropriately.”

Another apparent im-promptu lineup formed

late last week at KingsleyEstates — a new townhousedevelopment at the formerSteveston High site on No.2 Road — leaving developerPolygon Homes with no otherchoice but to begin sellingmore units on Saturday,according to the company’spresident and CEO NeilChrystal.

“Once you have peoplestarting to line up, you can’thave them wait to line upand not buy anything,” saidChrystal.

The lineup began lastThursday afternoon and byFriday had twisted aroundthe corner, on to the side-walk. Saturday had beenearmarked as an open housepreview, after Polygon hadsold 30 homes the week priorafter the first lineup formed,sparking anger and frustra-tion in the community.

Many prospective home-owners in Friday’s lineupwere tight-lipped when theRichmond News asked howthey had heard about thesale of homes.

“I don’t want to say any-thing,” said a young man inhis mid-20s, when askedbasic questions about howand why he was in line.

One middle-age couplefrom Aldergrove said theyheard from a realtor that

“something may be hap-pening” on Saturday. Theybrought lawn chairs and sleptin their car Friday night.

The man said the couplehad savings and wasn’t tooconcerned about the $1.4million price tag for a four-bedroom, 1,700-square-foottownhouse.

“Why not! I have a friendwho bought a townhouse(elsewhere), an end unit, andit’s gone up $200,000” in ashort period of time, he said.

Four young people playedMahjong, a Chinese boardgame similar to rummy. Ayoung man at the table, in hisearly 20s, said he was waitingin line for a friend.

According to nearbyresident Mario Raposo, whohad initially been interestedin a unit, the lineup formedbefore Polygon publically an-nounced another sale wouldbegin.

He described the processas “an utter gong show.”

Raposo said “the right thing

to have done” would havebeen to leave Saturday as apreview date, as Polygon’sinitial email had stated andthen “announce the futuresales date where everyone onthe priority list has a chanceat the homes (or a chanceto be one of the first ones inline).”

Chrystal said Polygon isn’tused to lineups and “this isnot the normal way of doingbusiness.”

He said Polygon “adjustedour plans on the fly” andhe didn’t know why peoplebegan lining up the secondtime. Chrystal suggested thatrealtors had speculated tothose in the lineup that salescould commence.

Polygon ended up selling29 homes, after having al-ready sold 30 the week prior.That’s just about half of the121 homes sold prior to anyscheduled sale date, whichmembers of the public hadsigned up via email to receivenotifications.

One of the bodies found inRichmond last week has

been identified as a 26-year-old man.

Police revealed on Fridaythat the body found lastMonday wrapped in a sleep-ing bag on the banks of thenorth arm of the Fraser River,near Milltown Marina, is that

of Richmond man JustinPauwat Chan.

And following an autopsy,Vancouver Police (althoughthe area is technically inRichmond, it’s partly servicedby Vancouver) said that thecircumstances surroundingChan’s death were suspi-cious.

However, the VPD hasindicated that Chan wastargeted and there’s no threat

to public safety.Anyone with information is

asked to call the VPD MajorCrime Section at 604-717-2500 or Crime Stoppers,anonymously, at 1-800-222-8477.

Meanwhile, RichmondRCMP has yet to release anyinformation about the bodythat was pulled from thesouth arm of the Fraser Riverlast Tuesday, June 7.

Mounties had been calledafter a report of a body seenfloating in the river, near theMassey Tunnel. Accord-ing to police, the body wasrecovered with the help ofCanadian Coast Guard.

Information on the sex orapproximate age of the bodyis not yet known, along withwhether or not there are anysuspicious circumstancessurrounding the death.

Aformer Richmond Mountie involvedin the death of Robert Dziekanski

has filed a lawsuit against the RCMP,claiming negligence and harassment.

Const. Bill Bentley was one of fourofficers called to YVR in October 2007to deal with Polish immigrant Dziekan-ski, who died as a result of his interac-tion with police.

Bentley, last week, filed a noticeof civil claim in B.C. Supreme Courtagainst the Attorney General ofCanada and B.C.’s justice minister.

The suit claims Bentley initiallyreceived support from the RCMP com-missioner shortly after the incident,but the support faded soon afterwards.

It’s alleged that the RCMP misman-

aged the flow of information in thecase and, thus, created among thegeneral public a perception of wrong-doing by the Mounties, includingallowing Bentley to become a “scape-goat” for criticism.

The lawsuit claims that, “Throughoutthe ordeal, the plaintiff has been aloyal member of the RCMP and hasbeen prevented from publicly defend-ing himself to the wrongful allegationsabout him by both the RCMP and themedia as a result of his oaths and or-ders received from superior officers.”

On that fateful night at the airport,four Mounties faced Dziekanski whenthe Polish immigrant was repeatedlystunned with a Taser and died.

The claims made in the court docu-ments have not been proven in courtand a statement of defence has yet tobe filed.

All the officers were subsequentlycharged with perjury for allegedly col-luding and giving false testimony at apublic inquiry into Dziekanski’s death.

In 2013, Bentley was acquitted,but, so says his claim, the RCMP’shandling of the entire case has hadserious psychological impacts onBentley. The court documents alsodetail how Bentley was diagnosed withchronic post-traumatic stress disorderand major depressive disorder in June2010.

Bentley has not returned to activeduty with the RCMP and he claimshis career has been “effectivelydestroyed.” He does not specify howmuch compensation he’s seeking.

Const. Gerry Rundel, another officerinvolved that night, filed a similar suitin March, also claiming RCMP negli-gence and harassment.

City of Richmond | 6911 No. 3 Rd. Richmond BC V6Y 2C1 | Tel: 604-276-4000

By Malcolm BrodieMayor

Amajor threat to our community visionsurrounds the purchase of the 239-acreGilmore Farm obtained by the Port ofVancouver in 2008. Characterizing thiseast-Richmond farm as “insurance” should there be the needfor more Port-related industrial land, the Port’s Board hasrepeatedly refused to meet with our City Council to evendiscuss the challenge posed by industrial encroachment onfarmland. This issue could fundamentally change the faceof Richmond. Though the Province has verbally expressedtheir expectation that the Port respect the requirements ofthe Agricultural Land Commission, the Port CEO was oncequoted as saying, “I don’t think we would be bound (by theAgricultural Land Reserve). As a federal body here at PortMetro Vancouver, we have supremacy”.

Richmond has long been a strong supporter of industry.Leaders in the region, we have 1.5 jobs for every workerin the City. Port activity is a significant contributor to thosejobs and remains a key national economic generator. Until2008, Richmond’s Port activity was governed by two separateauthorities that each enjoyed a positive working relationshipwith the City. Yet, since amalgamating with the VancouverAuthority to form a single regional Port, we have witnessed adramatic change.

The Port’s governing structure mostly favours its industrialusers. Only a single Board Director out of eleven is appointedto represent all the local municipalities in which the Port

operates. As the Port focuses on growth in operations,impacts felt by local communities and our regionalenvironment too often seem to be ignored.

The Port’s purchase of this farm provides a compelling casestudy. The land is designated for agricultural use withinthe Provincial ALR, Richmond’s OCP and Metro Vancouver’sRegional Growth Strategy. Yet, it obviously remains a targetfor future Port industrial expansion.

Although there appears to be sufficient vacant or under-utilized industrial land in the region, the Port seems to haveits eye on farmland as being cheaper to purchase and moreexpedient to develop. The Port also has ignored suggestionsto shift new growth to other coastal or inland ports, eventhough this would support its mandate.

Using prime farmland for Port expansion detracts from locallong-term food security and sustainability. Unfortunately, thePort seems to believe that food security depends only on theamount of food that is imported on ships.

To work more openly and effectively for the citizens beingserved, the Port Board should:

• Meet soon with Richmond City Council;

• Sell the Gilmore Farm back to the farm community; and

• Work with various cities to pinpoint appropriateindustrial lands.

These simple actions would be a good place to start and allparties would benefit.

andWINGS TENDERSVeteran city councillor Bill McNulty had

choice words for first-term colleague CarolDay, after she asked to have council’s per-sonal expenses detailed publicly to improvetransparency.

“I resent the fact that Coun. Day thinksshe’d like to be the hero to put this out,”said McNulty, who actually went on to sup-port Day’s motion despite stating, “The waywe report (expenses) is fine.

McNulty said each councillor should beresponsible for explaining his nor her ownexpenses to the public, when asked.

Day had asked council to amend an an-nual report on councillor salaries, benefitsand expenses. She wanted detailed expens-es, not a lump sum, as reported by staff.

Day said doing so is part of council “fulfill-ing our fiduciary responsibility.

“The public would be very interested inknowing that these expenses, especially forthose of us who are new on council, are forattending professional training,” said Day.

In her amendment, seconded by Coun.Chak Au, Day said medical benefits shouldbe left out of a detailed report, as suchitems are private.

McNulty disagreed.“I think we should put the benefits down,

as well. If we’re going to be transparent —between Couns. Day and Au — then let’sbe transparent,” said McNulty, who went onto state that he’s always defended any of hisown expenses.

During the discussion period McNulty, a

retired school counsellor, went into furtherdetails by noting he had given up his ownholiday time to travel to Japan two years ina row to procure the tall ship Kaiwo Maru,for next year’s Canada 150 celebrationsnext May.

“I don’t think our expenses have everbeen hidden,” said McNulty, who had themost expenses in 2015 because of theJapan trip.

The trip was not costed in details publicly,but the Richmond News learned it cost tax-payers just over $13,000 to send McNultyto Japan, including an unscheduled trip toOkinawa, which, according to McNulty, wasto research pool facilities.

This year’s trip, with a staff member, cost$30,000.

The report showed Day had $5,024 inexpenses, the third most after McNulty andCoun. Alexa Loo ($5,985).

Coun. Derek Dang had the lowest 2015expenses, at $141.

Couns. Dang and Harold Steves andMayor Malcolm Brodie voted against themotion. After the meeting, Steves said, viaTwitter, there was little point to providingdetails on such little money (he had about$2,000 in expenses).

“Just ask,” said Steves.The report showed Brodie’s annual salary

is now $127,728 while each councillorearns $58,073 per year (2015 had oneextra pay period).

In 2015, former Couns. Evelina Halsey-Brandt and Linda Barnes were paid$62,579 and $68,953, respectively, for aretirement allowance.

Dear Editor,Re; “Invisibility — a form of

bullying,” Voices, June 10.Unfortunately, there is latent

homophobia in Richmond andthe comments from the editor,Eve Edmonds, highlights it veryclearly.

Every school district in theLower Mainland, with the excep-tion of Coquitlam and Richmond,has a gay/straight alliance clubwithin its schools. They alsohave clearly articulated policiesregarding gender discrimina-tion. The reason why Richmonddoesn’t need such a policy,according to Richmond trust-ees other than Sandra Nixon,is because we already have ananti-bullying policy that applies toeveryone.

However, as Edmonds pointsout, the district does specify fac-tors such as race and religion aspart of the Human Rights Code.

This exposes a bias on the partof Richmond’s board of educa-tion, which appears to care more

about the ideology of some par-ents than the comfort and safetyof all students.

The rainbow picture on theRichmond News’ website, of thenotice put up by the BC Teach-ers’ Federation stating, “This isa safe place for LGBTQ people,”shows that inclusivity in ourRichmond schools is going to bedriven from the bottom up, byteachers and students, not fromthe top down, by trustees.

This sad situation is directlyrelated to the steadfast lack ofany acknowledgement fromRichmond City Hall of Gay PrideWeek, which is celebrated inother municipalities throughoutthe Lower Mainland.

Even Abbotsford, the heart ofthe “Bible Belt,” has a Gay PrideParade during this special week,highlighting the LGBTQ com-munity.

Yet, here in Richmond, no rain-bow flag, no proclamation fromcity hall welcoming everybody tohelp celebrate this special time

and declaring our city an inclu-sive place for all people.

Canada, B.C. and especiallythe Lower Mainland have alwaysbeen on the vanguard of includ-ing minorities of every persua-sion.

It is a blemish on Richmond`sreputation that we continue toleave out in the cold the LGBTQcommunity.

Alan HallidayRichmond

Dear Editor,The Richmond Chamber would like to

commend the Fraser Basin Council forthe launch of its Phase 1, Lower MainlandFlood Management Strategy last week.

This is a very important area of studywhich has massive implications for not justRichmond, but the entire Lower FraserRiver region.

The findings of this study echo the con-cerns of a report we launched, in partner-ship with 12 fellow chambers and boards oftrade, stretching from Richmond to Hope,in 2014. (Available at richmondchamber.ca)

As highlighted in both reports, the LowerFraser River has the power to dramaticallyimpact the Lower Mainland, for better orworse.

The Fraser River is a driving force in Can-ada’s economy. And as a key economic cor-ridor, the river must be properly managedand maintained to help ensure continuingeconomic prosperity and environmentalsustainability.

The economic impact on the provincialand national economy from a significantflood would be enormous.

According to the Fraser Basin Council’smost recent estimates, losses would be inthe $20-30 billion dollar range, making itthe most damaging natural disaster in ournation’s history.

The reality is that this amount of damage

would greatly outstrip the capital and main-tenance costs of a preventative, long-termflood management plan.

The Richmond Chamber applauds thisproactive initiative of the Fraser BasinCouncil and its partners, to better under-stand “the state of flood protection infra-structure, policies and practices across theregion” and looks forward to supportingphase 2, “to develop a regional strategy andaction plan, including recommendations fora secure, sustainable funding model.”

Dear Editor,To all the bike owners out there:I grew up in Richmond, and

if there is one thing I know, it’sthat this is a prime place for bikethefts.

So, I was not entirely shockedwhen my one-year old Specialized

Crosstrail was stolen outside ofthe Safeway on Williams and No.3 Road.

I purchased my bike believingthat I was investing in somethingthat would last me, only to disre-gard spending money to protectthis asset.

I am writing this post to urge allbike owners to lock up your bikeswith a high quality lock!

I naively assumed that my U-barlock was decently strong, only tolearn (after it was too late) that itonly contains minimal metal andis easily cut by thieves.

With summer approaching andthe sun making more frequentappearances, bike thieves are attheir prime.

Let’s stop making it easy forthem!

LETTERSto the Editor

It's your duty to stopDear Editor,On Sunday, I had the displeasure of wit-

nessing an altercation between an SUV anda cyclist in the crosswalk at No. 1 Road andGarry Street.

While three lanes of traffic managed to stopat the flashing lights, the fourth driver headingnorth in the curb lane decided it would bebetter to drift through, completely ignoring ev-erything around them. Luckily, the cyclist waswalking his bike so the collision was minor.

What disturbs me more than yet another in-cident at this intersection is the fact that noneof the drivers who stopped — and obviouslywitnessed the accident — chose to remain atthe scene and assist.

If it weren’t for a neighbour and myself whohappened to be in our yards at the time, theyoung cyclist would have been left to fendfor himself, in shock, with a very uncoopera-tive driver, who could not produce a driver’slicence and refused to give a phone number.

This lack of engagement by the other driv-ers is sad and disappointing.

If you are a witness to a traffic accident,no matter how minor, take the time to offerassistance, provide your contact information,and take a few notes or photos yourself.

It only takes a few minutes and can makeall the difference in settling a complex claim.

that there has to be something about theplace that sweetens the nature of the people.Perhaps, it’s the fact that Steveston retains abit of the charm of a small town, with vestigesof an almost rural aspect along its easternedge. Whatever the answer, the experienceswarmed my heart.

Serenity.It’s the word Steveston photogra-

pher Kerri-Jo Stewart thinks of first whenasked to describe the set of imagesmaking up an exhibit of her work titledThe Fraser which is part of her exploringSteveston series.

“It’s the coloursand the lines. It justpresents a calm andpeaceful setting,”said the internationalaward-winner whosnapped the picturesduring one of herSteveston photo-graphic walk events.“I’ve been living inSteveston for the pastfour years and have loved it from the verybeginning.”

This is Stewart’s first solo show, whichruns at the Richmond City Hall Gal-leria from June 15 – Aug. 31. Viewinghours are from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Mondaythrough Friday.

Stewart used long exposures and inten-tional camera movement (ICM) to createan impact in the images.

In her project statement for the photos,Stewart wrote, “The long exposure allowsmore light to get through the lens andbrings out colours that exist in the scenebut may not be visible with a glance.

“ICM blurs the image as everything inthe lens is recorded and here the verticalmovement emphasizes the lines alongthe Fraser River and horizon as seenfrom Steveston.”

The first images in the series are longexposures taken along the boardwalk andon Steveston pier.

Stewart said the movement images wereshot at different times of the day in orderto capture the unique lighting periods, aswell as movements along the river.

In addition to that show, Stewart hasbeen busy with her camera.

In April, she returned from Turkmeni-stan in Central Asia, where she is an an-nual invitee to photograph the country’sHorse Day celebrations.

Held on the last Sunday in April, itfeatures equestrian fairs, exhibitions,dressage and a racing competition.

She’s also up for an international awardat the World Photographic Cup, an onlinecompetition that she’s been a part of as anominee the past three years.

The image Stewart has entered isnamed Surfacing and features a swimmerwith the Richmond Kigoos club, who isabout to break the surface of the water.

Iread a lot of mysteries, but surprisinglyI have not read anything by Jane Casey

before.I’m not sure how I missed her over the

years, but I am really glad I stumbled uponher books. The Kill is the fifth book in JaneCasey’s fantastic Maeve Kerrigan’s series.The books build upon each other, but youdon’t necessarily need to read them inorder.

Maeve Kerrigan is a young DC (detec-tive constable) in the Metropolitan Policein London. She is smart, ambitious andstrong, but she is also vulnerable, tempera-mental and flawed.

Her partner and senior officer, DI (detec-tive inspector)Josh Derwent, is all roughedges, has the subtlety of sledgehammer,and has an unrepentant sexist approachthat would have most women screaming inrage.

Despite this, he grows on you and thereis a fascinating chemistry between bothcharacters that’s completely unexpectedand just right.

The Kill has a really intriguing plot. It allstarts when a police officer is found shot inis car in a part in a secluded part of a citypark.

What was he doing there? Was he alone?Was he killed because of something inhis personal life? Or could he have beenattacked because of something he wasworking on?

These arethe questionsin Kerriganand Der-went’s mindswhen theyget anothercall: a secondpoliceman isalso founddead, andthen another.

Suddenly,the police gofrom beingthe protectorsto needingprotection, less they fall prey to a relentlessand vicious cop killer.

No one knows where or how the killer willstrike again or have any clues on how tostop him.

The pace of this book was just right withthe perfect combination of mystery andcharacter development.

I loved how everything in the plot wasconnected.

Looking back on it, I can see how all theclues were there in the smallest detailspointing in the right direction, but it still leftme guessing until the very end.

I have no hesitation in recommendingThe Kill for fans of complex mysteries with ahearty dose of character development.

Other similar mysteries you might enjoyare those by Robert Galbraith, Kelley Arm-strong, Mo Hayder and Tess Gerritsen.

BROUGHTTOYOU BY:Richmond Societyfor Community Living170 - 7000 Minoru Blvd., Richmond BCV6Y 3Z5604-279-7040 ı [email protected] ı www.rscl.org

A taste ofby: Melanie Arnis,RSCL Board President

After a one year hiatus, one of our signaturefundraisers, “A Taste of India”, returned onFebruary 26th. This fundraiser has a richhistory of bringing the community togetherfor an evening of food, fun, and comedy. Ithas been a part of Richmond Society forCommunity Living for more than 15 years.

The evening starts with tasty appetizers,and a chance to relax and socialize. It isalso a time to peruse the selection of giftsready to be bid on for the silent auction. Theauction is not silent as the closing time nears,and people jostle to be the last bidder.

The comedian thisyear was Ryan Decker.Ryan’s routine aboutVancouver and ourfoibles was spot on,and everyone in theaudience from themillennials to theboomers were laughingheartily. Ryan’sreasoning that Vancouverites don’t need tobuy snow tires as we only need to stay homefor the six hours we have winter, made theaudience roar.

Other activities during the evening includea traditional dance by a self-advocate. Someof the audience give himmoney during hisperformance and he generously donates itto RSCL. We enjoy his exuberance and hisgenerosity.

An animated live auction is held too withthe help from ADESA Auctioneers, with theirservices generously donated also. There areprizes of hockey tickets, jerseys, hotel staysand luxury car rentals. They are donatedby both corporations and individuals thatsupport RSCL. John and Marc are amazingas they motivate the audience to purchasethese wonderful prizes.

This year’s event raised over $10,000. The

money raised isgoing to fundRichmond’s firstSnoezelen Room.A Snoezelen roomis a multi-sensoryroom which helpspeople of all ageswith challengingbehaviours, learningdisabilities, mentalhealth issues, andautism. It is made upof things to be touchedand explored. It speaksto all five senses ofthe person throughtextures, lights, sounds,colour, music and scents. Each room can bedifferent but often will have bubble tubes,water play, cushions, ball pits, projectors, andmovement stimulators. These items can becostly, and a well-equipped roommeans lotsof fundraising.

It is so gratifying for such a congenialoccasion to bring together over 300 peopleto share a night breaking bread and sharinga laugh, but to also raise a considerableamount of money for a good cause.

I know that to put on the dinner takes a lotof time and effort from a lot of people. It isappreciated by the guests, and they knowthat long after the music has finished andthe lights are out, individuals will reap therewards of the brand new Snoezelen Room.

Our heartfelt thanks to ourdonors for making

ATaste of India a success.

Giving back to the Supported ChildDevelopment Program (SCDP) is importantto our family. This year we decided to throwa party to celebrate my husband’s 40thbirthday and what a great way to raise fundsand awareness for RSCL and SCDP at thesame time.

We let our guests know ahead of time thatwe would be collecting donations forSCDP and we told them why.We told themthat every day, our son has support at hispreschool because of SCDP; that withoutthem, he may not be able to go to preschool.We told them that they support himand us with strategies, goals and a plan forhis upcoming transition to kindergarten.

We want to thank SCDP and all whodonated to this very important cause!Wehope that our birthday fundraiser can inspireothers to find ways to give back.

Sincerely,

The Kinney-Sepps.

We all play favourites. We look at theattractive, we hang out with the most

fun, and we take for granted the reliable anddependable in our lives that are always thereday after day.

What is your favourite organ?You may not choose two of the most im-

portant — your brain and heart, but the restof you couldn’t survive without them.

With every beat, your heart keeps everycell of your body alive, pumping blood fresh-ly oxygenated by your lungs. If your heartstopped pumping or an artery was blocked,you would suffer a stroke, blindness, organfailure or the loss of your legs.

So take a moment to think about yourheart. What have you done for it lately?

You can increase your odds for a long andhappy life by thinking about your heart asyou should your most important relation-ships. Are you paying attention? Are youshowing care each day? Are you working tomake it great?

1. Listening (for trouble)Sometimes, it’s obvious when something is

wrong – irregular heart beats with lighthead-edness; pain or pressure on exertion in yourchest, throat or arms.

Sometimes, the signs are subtle and mis-taken for normal aging — or being married along time: fatigue or exhaustion, feeling outof shape and short of breath, calf pain whilewalking, and decreased sexual function.

Before considering vitamins, Viagra or

marriage counseling, see your doctor.2. How Do You Care for Your Heart?The best predictor of your future health

are (1) the health of your parents and (2)the habits you practise today.

If a parent or sibling had heart surgery,a heart attack or heart failure, you shouldask your doctor to assess your personal riskfactors, including high cholesterol, diabetesand high blood pressure.

Are you living a life that minimizes risks?Care for your heart by limiting salt, alcoholand a lazy, leisurely lifestyle. Don’t sacrificelong-term health for short-term pleasure.

Enjoy the rewards of daily healthy living.Eat more fruits and vegetables and otherfoods that really make you feel good. If youcan sit, stand. If you can stand, walk. If youcan walk: run, swim or cycle.

Butt out, get outside and live.3. Make a good thing greatWhy settle for good enough when you can

get great?You don’t know what you’ve got ‘til it’s

gone, and you don’t know great ‘til you’vegot it. Your heart is another muscle you cantrain. Unless you’ve already been a world-class athlete, none of us knows what we canachieve.

When you’re fit and strong, everyday life iseasier. You’ll have plenty of energy to shop,clean, mow the lawn, get out and dance.Everyday tasks — climbing a flight of stairs,lifting and moving — become effortless andfast.

Dolphin coming back to the neighbourhood

What has evolved into one of the city’sbiggest sporting events is re-locating

within a few blocks of its original home.The 31st annual Dolphin Classic is headed

to the South Arm Community Centre. The4-on-4 outdoor basketball tournament is setfor July 15-17 and will feature top men’s andwomen’s teams from throughout the PacificNorthwest.It was back in 2007 when the Classic’s

surging popularity forced organizers tostart searching for a new home. The quaintDolphin Park was no longer big enough forthe large crowds or the number of cars thatconverged on the quiet South Richmondneighbourhood each July weekend.“We had a year or two to find another

location. We were not going to get our (beergarden) liquor licensed renewed until we wentto a bigger park that was safe,” recalled BiraBindra, one of the Classic’s original players.“That’s when we sat in a board room withexecutives at city hall to try and find a goodlocation.”Bindra and the rest of the Dolphin founders

knew exactly where they wanted to go but atthat time there were no courts at South Arm.“Even though we are all originally West

Richmond and Steveston guys, this is wherewe would come and meet,” explained Bruce

Watson. It was just a more central locationand the best competition (from the threesenior secondary schools at the time) wouldall come here. If it was raining, we would gointo the gym and on sunny days we would beat (nearby) Dolphin.”With South Arm not being an option, the

Classic moved to the Thompson Commu-nity Centre in Central Richmond where thetournament was welcomed with open armsby an enthusiastic community association in2009. Two playing courts allowed the eventto expand to include a women’s divison.A year later, the South Arm Community

Association teamed up with the City of Rich-mond to build two pristine outdoor courts.Not only where they the same dimensions asDolphin, they included fibreglass backboardsand state-of-the-art polypropylene SportCourt surfaces.“We knew there was a possibility they were

(going to build this) but we thought let’s go toThompson for three years while this hap-pens,” said Bindra. “Their staff was awesometo work with.”What was intended to be a short stay at

Thompson was extended to six years, eventhough it was impossible to replicate theClassic’s original home due to just how bar-ren the Thompson basketball court area was.After last year’s tournament, a decision wasmade to approach South Arm CommunityCentre area coordinator Steve Mahon.

“We had been fighting it for the last littlewhile,” admitted Taj Johal. “It was just notthe same intimacy up there because it wasso wide open. We see a lot of the old bycoming back to the new here. I think it willbe a fresh re-root.”“With the trees and everything, it’s a lot

more like Dolphin,” added Tony Wong-Hen.“We tried to give Thompson more of a fes-tive atmosphere by putting up tents and thatkind. This was originally our home and wehave always wanted to come here and wethought this location (of the South Arm) wasideal. It was just waiting for something.”With the tournament a month away, Wat-

son is busy finalizing the entries in the men’sand women’s divisions. Although new teamsare always welcome, the standard of play issuch that acceptance is hardly automatic.The tournament’s reputation and rich tradi-tion is at stake.“It has to fit our mould to put on the most

competitive tournament as possible. We sortof seek the teams out if we can,” added Bin-dra. “We treat the players as our No. 1 prior-

ity and cater to them. We are taking awayone of their summer weekends so we makesure everything is right. When it comes tothe schedule we accommodate out of townteams as much as we can.”The move to South Arm is also providing

the Classic with the opportunity to show-case future participants.A partnership has been formed with the

Richmond Youth Basketball League (RYBL)and a mini tournament, featuring playersages 10-12, will also take place that week.“Just being exposed to the tournament

and the high level of talent they are goingto see is going to inspire them to reach thenext level,” said RYBL coordinator JessyDhillon, who also is head coach of McNair’ssenior boys team. “To be on the same courtas them with a crowd watching will have thekids on Cloud 9.“It’s almost like starting a new generation

that might want to play at Dolphin one day.How cool would that be?”For more information on the Dolphin Clas-

sic and a link to an outstanding documen-tary on the tournament’s beginnings visitwww.dolphinbasketball.com

The Richmond 2001B Islanders rep girlsfastpitch team looked to recapture its magicat the 2016 North Delta Invitational.The first-year U16 division team had won

gold at North Delta in two of the previousthree years and coach Greg Dee was eagerto again lead his team against a field of 12strong teams from the Lower Mainland,Vancouver Island, the Interior and Washing-ton State.Richmond went 2-2 during the round robin

play to advance to the playoff round as theNo. 7 seed.In the quarter-final playoff game, the

Islanders had to face off against the No. 2seed — a powerful and more experienced2000/2001 Bellingham Bash team. TheIslanders got off to a slow start and weretrailing 2-0 after the first inning. However,pitcher Megan Saez Co settled into a grooveand only allowed one run the rest of the way.She kept the Bash batters on their heels,striking out 13 batters over six innings to getthe complete game victory.The Islanders took the lead with a three-

run fourth inning, highlighted by RBI singlesfrom Jessica Ryan, Elle Armitage and asacrifice fly by Izy Wick to score Kate Dee,Ryan, and Tjammie Ko, respectively for a4-3 win.In the semi-finals, the Islanders made

quick work of their opponent — RidgeMeadows Rage — by scoring five runs inthe top of the first and never looked back in

a convincing 11-1 victory.Leading the way offensively for the Island-

ers was Hannah Collins with three RBIs andSaez Co.She also pitched another brilliant game,

allowing just three hits and one run over fiveinnings of work, while the defence behindher was solid, highlighted by four outfieldcatches by Ko and a double play from SaezCo to Ryan and then to Wick.The win catapulted the Islanders to

the gold medal game against the heavilyfavoured and more experienced 2000 Fleet-wood Force.The Islanders, grabbed an early lead as

Dee led off the game with a single and a sto-len base before being driven home by Ryan.However, the advantage was short-lived asthe Force took it to the Islanders with 13straight runs.The Islanders did finish strong as Saez

Co had a two-run single in the last inningto score Ryan and Wick but the Islanderscould not overcome the large deficit in a13-3 defeat.Despite the loss, coach Dee and his as-

sistants — Jeff Collins, Eric Gee and BetsonSaez Co — were extremely proud of theplayers for the level of competition broughtforth throughout the weekend to capturesilver.The team also includes: Lila Crawford,

Jessica Gee, Leah LaRocque, Tallia MacIver,Jessica Nonay and Asha Pannu.
