With funding no longer covering costs, Burnaby school district’s adult crossing guard program is currently under review.

Burnaby Mayor Derek Corrigan expressing support for a transitional housing facility in the city is a very positive step forward, say local advocates for the homeless.

Transitional housing provides longer-term housing for two to three years, and staff who can assist them in making the transition to the next step. That next step can vary by person, from permanent housing to long-term housing where they still need support services.

The target group for transitional housing is those who may still be living “a life of chaos” with no money or health services, people who “just need a longer time to get their feet underneath them before they can look at permanent housing,” said Karen O’Shannacery, executive director of the Lookout

Emergency Aid Society, which operates Burnaby’s extreme weather shelter.

But can a city have transitional housing without an emergency shelter as a point of entry first?

“Absolutely you can, but you’re not going to resolve all the problems around the homeless,” said O’Shannacery. “From our perspective you need a homeless plan that’s actually going to address all the pieces if we’re truly going to solve homelessness in Burnaby.”

O’Shannacery said shelters also act as emergency centres for people who suddenly find themselves homeless, such as a senior who can’t return to their

two-storey home until they recover from a broken leg.

And without them as a place where homeless people can come to seek help, outreach workers, such as those from Progressive Housing Society in Burnaby, shoulder most of the burden of finding homeless people and getting them help. Without such a facility in Burnaby, currently the outreach workers try to convince such clients to go to emergency shelters in New Westminster or Vancouver, but often find they don’t want to leave their own community where they have their own support network.

Having to go out and find homeless people is “very much a hit-or-miss situation and that’s not beneficial for the people that

are homeless, that’s for sure,” O’Shannacery said. “But it is a step in the right direction and a homeless plan for Burnaby includes a number of different types of services and solutions, so Mayor Corrigan giving his full

support and backing to filling one of the gaps, the transitional housing, that’s very good and I applaud him for it.”

Lookout continues to work with the province to find an appropriate site for a transitional housing facility in Burnaby and “we’ll keep plugging away at it,” she said.

“Solving homelessness involves everybody. The

mayor is dead on talking about how the federal government has to be re-engaged with housing. Everybody is part of the solution.”

The Burnaby Board of Trade (BBOT) is calling on its members to contribute to relief efforts for victims of the fire that destroyed a 34-unit apartment building on Smith Avenue almost two weeks ago.

“Over 100 people were left homeless, most have low or moderate incomes and all are faced with the very expensive task of rebuilding their lives,” said BBOT president and CEO Paul Holden in a letter to members.

The greatest immediate need is for the victims to replace their identification, without which they can’t access bank accounts or rent new homes.

Every province charges a fee for replacement birth certificates, with Manitoba, where several of the Smith Avenue tenants are from, requiring six to eight weeks unless an additional $80 is paid.

Another fire victim requires a new birth certificate from Alberta, which requires applications to be notarized, an added expense.

Anyone willing to provide free notary services to help fire victims get new birth certificates is asked to contact Burnaby-Deer Lake MLA Kathy Corrigan’s office at 604-775-2414.

The Salvation Army Metrotown at 6125 Nelson St. in Burnaby (604-437-1521) is accepting cash donations, clothing and household goods for the fire victims.

And the Burnaby Task Force on Homelessness is helping displaced Smith Avenue residents to find affordable housing. Anyone with an affordable place to rent in Burnaby is asked to contact the task force’s Wanda Mulholland at 604-317-8114.

Gets one year in jailWanda [email protected]

The second of two men charged for the robbery of an iPad from a disabled woman has been convicted and sentenced, according to Transit Police.

In a crime that outraged the public, two men robbed the victim May 10, 2012 as she tried to board an elevator at Metrotown SkyTrain station in Burnaby.

The young woman, who is deaf, has cerebral palsy and uses a wheelchair, relies on her iPad to communicate.

Less than a week later, on May 16, the first suspect was arrested by Transit Police and charged with robbery. New Westminster resident John Eugene Lagimodiere, 32, pled guilty to theft under $5,000 and was sentenced to one day in custody and two years probation.

The second suspect, New Westminster resident David Clayton Ned, 33, was arrested July 26 by Transit Police following intense media coverage and also charged with robbery.

Ned has been in custody since then and pled guilty to robbery on the second day of his trial. He has been sentenced to one year in jail, including time served, and two years probation. He is under conditions not to possess any weapons nor to be found on any SkyTrain vehicle or property.

As for the victim, after media reports of the case, a Good Samaritan bought her a new iPad.

Feds to reallocate $970KWanda [email protected]

Burnaby school board chair Baljinder Narang knows first-hand it’s not easy coming to a new country, even if you speak the language.

“I remember as a new immigrant to Canada it was difficult to know the system. I spoke English but I knew my English from England was different from the English spoken in Canada. It’s a huge learning curve even if you don’t have the other learning challenges our families have.”

It could become even more difficult next year once the federal government changes the way it funds immigrant settlement programs.

Burnaby school board is raising concerns about the expected loss next year of federal funding for its immigrant settlement support services.

Since 2007-2008, Burnaby has been receiving the money for programs such as immigrant

outreach, Settlement Workers in Schools (SWIS), and assisting immigrant youth at risk.

Currently, Burnaby receives $970,000 annually which is allocated and administered by the province on behalf of Ottawa. There are now 21 school districts across B.C. providing such services.

Burnaby had 14 SWIS workers in the district in 2011-2012 when it assisted more than 4,800 clients from 81 countries settle in the community, said Narang.

However, as of April 1, 2014, the funding will be allocated by Citizenship and Immigration Canada.

“It’s like one shoe fits all, they’re trying to provide a Canada-wide service but that’s not taking into account the demographics of individual communities,” Narang said.

The non-profits and other organizations that now work together, including school districts, will find themselves competing for the same funding, she said.

“It’s going to be really difficult to know which families

are going to fall through the cracks because there isn’t going to be any system.”

The changes have raised uncertainty particularly among clients who, under the planned new system, would no longer have one point person to go to for support and to navigate them through the system.

“It takes many immigrants time to establish trust in a new country where they don’t speak the language and many have escaped tragic circumstances,” she said.

“The assumption is going to be that so-and-so is looking after them and maybe no one is.”

Those point people are also part of the school system so are able to make referrals while maintaining the families’ privacy.

“As a school district we would have concerns about allowing information about our students, going out to other agencies,” she said. “It’s a very crucial need for our communities and it’s making people feel very vulnerable.”

We returned from vacation and Idle No More had vanished. What happened? Is the conversation over?

I’ve learned a few things from the Idle No More movement.

One: I don’t know enough First Nations people. I know four of them well enough to discuss INM, four who would take the time and not take offence. They are writers and activists, artists and survivors of addictions. A neighbour is Metis, but does not discuss her heritage. I once taught school with a First Nations colleague, and it was great to know her and learn a bit about her family and their life on the north coast. I had First Nations and Metis students in my classes. I met their parents but mainly on a child-centered basis. We never spoke about the Indian Act, protests, history, or rights.

And I don’t know any people who live on reserves. I have little idea of their lives, the day-to-day commonalities and differences, pleasures and challenges. I don’t want to be some do-gooder white woman, some tourist gushing over carvings and skipping over painful issues. I stayed

at Winnie’s house in Gingolx, Nisga’a territory. I washed the dishes while she cooked, and we talked of our children and of blueberries. I don’t know her, but I know I like her—they way she fed everyone, the way she teased me about my appetite for crab. But how do I get to know First Nations people? And do they want to get to know me? I don’t think so, but then neither of us has tried very hard. Talk about two solitudes!

Two: I’ve had it with smoke and drums. I’ve participated, and learned about smudging ceremonies and the power of the drum. But I want more than that. That’s the cultural level made shallow by repetition on TV newscasts. “First Nations people marched today in …” cue the drums and singing. I want to know what the INM protesters think, in words not jargon, the

details of their concerns, not the shouts of a rally. I’m ready to listen to the next level of discourse.

Three: I appreciate and applaud the divisions in the INM movement and the leadership of First Nations. That’s healthy. We shouldn’t think of First Nations as one irrevocable entity, and neither should they. Diverse opinions can be a strength. Diversity forces people to focus on the big issues of humanity, and the process of resolving those divisions can bolster a movement.

Four: My concerns lie with First Nations governance at the band level. I’m sure it is complicated by the Indian Act, which needs revision. I’m sure that accounting can be done much better, by First Nations or by someone they hire to do it. This is where public support dwindles, no matter how much we care about living conditions or resource sharing. They need to show due diligence with money. “No documentation” in an audit doesn’t wash, and then legitimate demands lose credibility.

Five: My inner voice

always pairs “rights” with “responsibilities.” While First Nations are demanding rights I long to hear their leaders speak of responsibilities as well. Personal and public responsibility could help address the problems they face: education, addiction, diabetes, imprisonment, unemployment, and child welfare. Reduce the planeloads of junk food and drugs being delivered each day up north. Help each other avoid alcohol during pregnancy. Support each other off reserve when they leave for work or to get an education. Many bands already take responsibility for their own well-being, and prosper because of it.

The Idle No More movement seems to have lost steam, lost the headlines anyway. But I’m sure it will re-appear, to the joy of some and the dismay of others.

Oh it’s not simple, is it? I look forward to learning more as we all go forward.

Rs: reading, writing, and rambling.

I’ve had it with smoke and drums

The B.C Liberal government’s plans to boost income taxes on business and high-income earners takes a page out of the NDP opposition’s plans, and makes sense. The NDP plan had called for the corporate tax rate to go to 12 per cent, where it stood in 2008. The Liberals are boosting the corporate tax rate to 11 per cent on April 1.

The provincial government will also impose a higher personal income tax rate on individuals with incomes of $150,000 or more as of Jan. 1, 2014.

Both of these tax increases are necessary at this time, given the financial shackles the government is in. The province is claiming it will balance the budget in 2013-14, largely because it plans to sell more than $600 million in surplus property. Given that the real estate market has softened somewhat, that is probably an optimistic figure.

The Liberals will also boost MSP premiums again next year. This is completely unfair to moderate income earners, who do not get the exemption from paying the premiums that goes to low income people. This will be the fifth year in a row the premiums will increase.

This budget is crafted with the May 14 election in mind, and designed to convince wavering voters that the B.C. Liberals are competent money managers. Over the course of the past 12 years, the Liberals have been sound money managers much of the time, but in recent years their record has been more mixed.

The Liberals were hoping for a big boost in revenue through the new harmonized sales tax, but that was torpedoed by voters because of the bumbling way the government brought in the tax. That hurt their reputation as competent managers.

By adopting part of the NDP platform, the Liberals may have unintentionally telegraphed the NDP too has good fiscal ideas.

COMMENTRe: Mayor speaks out about homeless shelters (Column, NewsLeader, Feb. 1)

Kudos to Chris Bryan for his insightful interview with Mayor Derek Corrigan, as well as letter writers Jelena Kocmaruk and Sean Condon.

The mayor and his council have provided excellent stewardship to the citizens of Burnaby with the exception of the homelessness issue.

As a volunteer at a local community breakfast, and former seniors’ housing counsellor for seven years, I request the mayor:

1. Stop poor bashing (i.e. “Many are the type of folks who, if they found you dying on the sidewalk would pull out your gold fillings.”)

2. Visit and communicate with homeless people around Metrotown (i.e. those panhandling and couch-surfing)

3. Volunteer at a local community food program and shelter

4. Stop blaming other levels of government (It could be your relatives sleeping outside)

5. Cooperate with other municipalities that have shelters and share their knowledge.

The answer’s clearRe: Recycling shakeup may end curbside pickup of glass (NewsLeader, Feb. 6)  

I’d like to encourage Metro Vancouver and Multi-Material BC to consider a middle road instead of the all-or-nothing approach presented. In December, we moved from Portland, Ore., to Burnaby. In Portland, we had a separate yellow bin for curbside glass recycling. All other recycling went into a large blue bin.

Portland recycling trucks have a separate compartment for glass, allowing non-glass recycling to be uncontaminated and for glass to be recycled curbside.

Family day criTique oFF The mark

Re: Family Day in B.C. a desperate move (Letters, NewsLeader, Feb. 20)

Cody Tabois expresses skepticism about the chosen date for Family Day, saying it is a desperate move by the Liberals to buy Chinese votes.

What he fails to realize is that the Lunar New Year is first of all not only celebrated by Chinese voters, but citizens from many Asian backgrounds, and secondly that the date of the Lunar New Year changes every year in conjunction with the lunar cycle. So he can feel free to complain about the date of Family Day, but shouldn’t blame it on something he’s not informed about.

Over the years, traffic patterns have also changed and in the cases of some schools, pedestrian signals have been installed, Narang said.

“There have been a lot of changes and we thought it’s an expensive program and we’re very fortunate that the city’s actually helping us pay for it,” she said. “We need to be very vigilant about how we use that resource for the community.”

The review will look at what the program does, how the services are delivered and if it’s being done in the most effective way possible.

“Since the city has been our supporter in this it’s only right that we consult with them and make sure that we are working together and that support is being put to good use,” she said.

The review will also look at whether crossing guards are needed at other school sites.

However, says the meeting minutes, “The addition of a new adult crossing guard location would further increase the funding shortfall or would require the removal of an adult crossing guard from an existing location.”

Burnaby school district staff will conduct the review of the program and consult with the City of Burnaby and report back to the committee.

Largest is for 340-unit tower at Gilmore Ave.Wanda [email protected]

Four rezoning applications for the Brentwood, Edmonds and Royal Oak areas are going to public hearing on March 19, Burnaby council decided Monday.

The first is a highrise apartment tower with street-fronting townhouses for 1846, 1876 and 1904 Gilmore Ave., at Halifax Street, which are currently occupied by a delicatessen and sausage manufacturer, an auto-body repair shop and a vacant car lot, according to a city staff report.

The developer is proposing to build a 46-storey highrise apartment tower with a three-storey townhouse podium on Halifax and a two-storey residential amenity podium on Gilmore, including a rooftop swimming pool, the report said. It would comprise 340 units of which three would be three-bedroom townhouses, 140 would be two-bedroom-plus-den units and 108 would be one-bedroom-plus-dens.

Apartment unit sizes would range from 477-square-foot studios (22 units) to 1,364-square-foot four-bedroom units, of which there would be two.

Parking is underground and the developer would provide 51 two-zone transit

passes for two years for use by project residents, as well as twice the required secured bicycle parking, 34 plug in stations for electric vehicles and four electric vehicles to be owned and operated by the strata corporation.

The site is designated for high-density, multiple-family development in the Brentwood Town Centre Development Plan.

Under the density bonus program, if approved, the project would be allowed to build more than 93,000 square feet in additional floor space and city hall would receive more than $6.5 million to be used for future community amenities in the area.

Over in the Royal Oak area, Dimex Developments Inc. is proposing two projects next to each other

on Lane Street.Two city-owned parcels,

5401 and 5437 Lane St., will be sold to the developer for the project after city hall was unable to acquire the lot at 5390 Grimmer St. to build a park, the report said. The Grimmer property has since been redeveloped as a tire dealership.

With the consolidated site, 5369, 5401 and 5437

Lane St., the developer proposes building the first phase comprising a four-storey, 105-unit mixed-use project with commercial at grade fronting Lane and residential behind and on the three storeys above.

Phase two, at 5309 Lane St., is being proposed for a similarly-designed 80-unit, four-storey mixed-use development with commercial at grade.

The two phases will share an underground parkade, combined loading facilities, garbage and recycling areas and amenity spaces, as well as two plug-ins for electric vehicles and two electric vehicles to be provided by the developer.

The public hearing will be held on Tuesday, March 19 at 7 p.m. in city hall council chambers.

It wasn’t that long ago that Burnaby’s Tina Palazzo was feeling at her best.

It was 2006. “I was at my best weight and fit as a fiddle,” said Tina, one of 13 contestants in the Kin’s Green Fighters Challenge.

Then life took her on a series of detours.

Tina was in two car accidents three months apart. She lost her job to the recession. She went through the breakup of a relationship.

“I was going through a transition, I lost my self-confidence,” said Tina, 49.

Healthy eating and regular exercise were the last things on her mind.

But now her life’s back on track. She’s got her “dream job” working as a guest service ambassador for the Vancouver Convention Centre, and she’s got an active social life.

However, physically, she isn’t feeling as good as she’d like.

So when she saw an ad calling for contestants for the Green Fighters Challenge, a competition to see which participant can improve their health the most after 13 weeks, Tina jumped at the opportunity.

“I’m doing it for me, but I need the kickstart to get it going.”

The competition is an initiative of Kin’s Farm Market, with Black Press and the

Canadian Cancer Society among its partners on the project. Contestants were chosen from about 300 applicants and includes one in each of the 13 communities where Kin’s has a store.

Tina believes that by participating, the payoff will be long term, not only feeling better but living longer with less risk of cancer, diabetes and heart disease.

She’ll also be blogging about her journey over the next 13 weeks at kinsgreenfighters.com. There will be weekly prizes and a grand prize of a cruise to help

motivate contestants, but Tina stressed even the health assessment done as part of the contest is a prize in itself worth hundreds of dollars.

The assessment has opened her eyes to what she needs to do.

At five-foot-six, she now weighs 162 pounds, more than her ideal maximum of 145 pounds. She was particularly concerned that her body fat is at 40 per cent. For a woman her age, it should be between 25 and 38 per cent.

The doctor doing the assessment noted she’s lucky she carries the fat on her hips instead of her belly both because it doesn’t show as much and because it’s less of a risk for diabetes.

“I used to be 145 [pounds], I know what 145 feels like. It feels good, it feels healthy. I can go up 10 flights of stairs, no question.”

To that end she’s trying to make lifelong changes beginning with her eating habits. She’s started eating more fruits and vegetables, and eating out less.

Eating out four times

a week socializing is a weakness, she admits. There’s the social component, but it’s also out of convenience.

“You’re not eating the best, especially if the Canucks are playing, lots of greasy food.”

And she’s started exercising again in earnest, cycling,

walking and working out with weights.

Tina laughs at her younger days when she was in her mid-30s and working out regularly at the gym.

“I used to work out with the boys and was respected in the gym because I was there to work out.” Her body fat at the time was only 18 per cent and her arms were so sculpted the guys at the gym used to call her “pipes.”

“It’s unrealistic to be that way now,” she said, “but I want a healthy body.”

• Tina will be at the Brentwood Town Centre location of Kin’s Farm Market on Saturday, March 9 from 2 to 4 p.m. where she’ll complete her first in-store challenge, including collecting donations for the Canadian Cancer Society.

• Follow Tina’s progress through the weekly challenges here in the NewsLeader.

By Tom FletcherBlack Press

VICTORIA – Anti-bullying day at the B.C. legislature was marked by debate about Kamloops MLA Kevin Krueger’s blast at the B.C. Conservatives as “unmitigated morons” and “scum” for criticizing B.C. Liberal cabinet minister Pat Bell.

Krueger fired off an angry e-mail to the B.C. Conservatives after leader John Cummins called for Bell to be suspended from cabinet over allegations Bell may have interfered in the location of a new wood innovation centre in his home town of Prince George.

Bell and Premier Christy Clark rejected the allegations after unsuccessful bidders for the project released a letter claiming Bell promised them their site would be short-listed for the new wood centre.

Bell said the bidding process was overseen by a lawyer acting as “fairness advisor,” and the lawyer has advised that the project should proceed on another site in downtown Prince George.

Asked about his insulting response Wednesday, Krueger said he used harsh language in the heat of the moment, but

he has no apologies to offer. He was “indignant” political opponents attacked Bell after it was revealed he has a serious heart condition that has prompted him to retire from politics in May.

Krueger laughed when asked if he thought his comments constituted bullying.

“I think that the irony in that is just amazing,” said Krueger, who is also retiring as an MLA before the May election.

Community, Sport and Cultural Development Minister Bill Bennett, who earlier got into trouble by sending an insulting e-mail to a constituent, also shrugged off the suggestion Krueger was acting like a bully.

“I agree with him about the morons part,” Bennett said. “This is a rough business. It doesn’t matter what political party you’re part of, it’s a contact sport.”

Burnaby Task Force on Homelessness

The � rst annual National Cupcake Day coordinated by Canadians to support local shelters, SPCAs

and Humane Societies was held on Monday, February 25, 2013. Even though this event is new

in Canada, it has had a long, successful history in other countries around the world, namely in

Australia, New Zealand and the UK.

Brian Jessel BMW invited Pastry Chef, Lisa Ip, to prepare 42 dozens (504 cupcakes) to help

fundraise for the event. In a mere 5 hours, the cupcakes were sold out and $3,100 was

successfully raised. Brian Jessel BMW is matching the funds and will be donating $6,200 in total.

“� ank you for everyone’s support. Brian Jessel BMW is proud to represent businesses in Metro Vancouver who are involved in our community. We will be back next year to support the SPCA’s National Cupcake Day.”

The Greater Vancouver Home Builders’ Association is aiming to take away some of the stress of buying a home for the first time with their 19th annual Seminar for First-Time Home Buyers, taking place on March 19 at the Bell Performing Arts Centre in Surrey.

“With interest rates still incredibly low and builders offering many new-home product choices, this is a great time for first-time buyers to consider taking that critical first step onto the property ladder,” says GVHBA CEO Bob de Wit. “Real estate continues to be a hot topic in Metro Vancouver, so seminar attendance is expected to be as many, or greater than, the 750

people who attended last year’s event. This is a one-stop information shop for first-time home buyers, so anyone considering buying a home should come to this free seminar.”

Among the speakers at the seminar will be senior market analyst at the Canada Mortgage & Housing Corp. Robyn Adamache, Energy Solutions Manager for FortisBC Michael Liu and Dominion Macklem Mortgages President Bill Macklem, among others.

Pre-registration is required and attendees are asked to bring a food item for the Surrey Food Bank.

Find everything you need for your home away from home at the BC Log Home, Timber Frame and Country Living Show, taking place in March.

The show will take place at the Abbotsford Tradex on March 9 and 10 and will feature over 85 exhibitors and seminars related to B.C.’s outdoor lifestyle. More than 6,000 people are expected to check out the show this year. It has been taking place for five years under its current name, and was known as the Country Living Show for 15 years before that.

“It promotes the West Coast lifestyle and living in a rural or cabin area,” says show manager Les Trendall. British Columbia is a particularly popular place for people to have a vacation property, and this show certainly caters to that.

“It’s about building your dream home,” says Trendall.

Among the highlights of the show is the feature home built by Maurer

Log Homes of Penticton and fully landscaped by Mijodelu Landscaping, and log structures built by Pioneer Log Homes, Artisan Log Homes and Trout Creek Timberframe.

“With four structures built on site, this is the most we’ve ever had,” says Trendall.

The show will offer several seminars each day, including Backyard Barbecuing at its Best! with chef Angie Quaale, Off Grid Solar Electric Systems, How to Build in the Boonies and Know your Septic System, just to name a few. The show will also feature anything related to the wood industry, solar power, restoration, docks and many unique sculptors, wood carvers and artists.

“The quality of the exhibitors is unparallelled,” Trendall says. “This show is very unique to the industry.”

The exhibitors will be available to visitors to discuss their products and services, so come prepared with your

questions.“This show is for people who are on

the hunt for the latest products and services,” says Trendall. “This show is the ideal venue to showcase those exhibitors.”

Visitors are also able to enter to win

a hand-carved wooden panel from Bob Whitehead of Whitehead Carvings, worth $1,500. You can also win tickets to the show through your local Black Press newspaper.

For more information, visit www.bclogandcountrylivingshow.ca.
