Parents at this end of theFraser Health Authority – whichruns from neighbouring Burnaby,through New Westminster and upto Boston Bar – can take a deepbreath of relief over the recent newsabout a whooping cough outbreakin Hope.

A blog about newsthat doesn’t always

A structure that replicates a part of theRoyal City’s history is now in place atWestminster Pier Park.

A structure that will represent the his-toric Lytton Square will be the centrepieceof Westminster Pier Park. The structure,which was pre-built at a factory, is nowbeing constructed at the waterfront site.

“Lytton Square was the original publicmarket on Front Street,” said Jim Lowrie,the city’s director of engineering. “Theoriginal public market opened in 1892. Itwas destroyed by fire.”

Lowrie said Lytton Square played asignificant role in New Westminster’searly years.

“In that period of time, that part oftown was the commercial hub,” he said.“It was the city’s first public market.”

The structure being erected inWestminster Pier Park will represent thatoriginal Lytton Square.

“It’s an open-frame structure,” Lowriesaid. “It is built on top of and wrapsaround the concession.”

The Lytton Square building is meant toprovide a gathering space at WestminsterPier Park.

“It will be partly covered,” Lowriesaid. “There is a glass canopy on top. It isa gathering spot to look out at the river.”

The City of New Westminster pur-chased the waterfront site in March 2009for $8 million. The city, province andfederal governments each contributed$8.3 million toward construction of thepark, which must be done by March 2012in order to comply with federal grantrequirements.

“They are working quite diligently,”Lowrie said.

Work now taking place at the siteincludes installation of concrete pathways

and the wooden boardwalk, as well aslandscaping. It’s expected the park will besubstantially complete by February andopen to the public in March.

Westminster Pier Park will be locat-

ed on the waterfront between Sixth andElliott streets. It will include a 600-metreboardwalk that connects to the exist-ing Quayside esplanade, pathways, alarge gathering space, a concession stand,

grassy areas, lookout points and bridgesthat provide views of the water, an elevat-ed viewing area where people can see theFraser River, children’s playgrounds anda building near the foot of Sixth Street.

Watch your step: Construction workers assemble sections of a building that will represent the city’s first public market. It’s thecentrepiece of the new Westminster Pier Park.

pertussis – getting booster shots.Because it takes time for the vaccination

to work at a protective level in infants, partof the effort in Hope has included speedingup the normal schedule of vaccination.

Typically, children in B.C. get a pertussisvaccination at two months, four monthsand six months, with an additional boosterat 18 months. In Hope, they’ve backed thatup to six weeks, 10 weeks and 14 weeks.

“So they’re getting a third vaccine justover the third month of age,” he said, inhopes of upping early protection.

So far, he says, they aren’t hearing con-cerns about the changes.

“We’re really, really pleased, we’ve hadhundreds of people coming to the clinics,”he said.

Van Buynder says that the outbreakmay be attributable to a number of factors,including the fact that the current type ofvaccine being used isn’t as strong as theolder version.

“The vaccine we used to use was verypowerful, but it had more side effects – thenew vaccines are less likely to producesore arms or fevers, but the vaccine (effect)doesn’t last as long.”

Additionally, the protection offered bychildhood vaccinations lasts for four to 10years, lessening as the child ages; adultsare less likely to get natural “boosters”from exposure because the disease is lessprevalent now. That leads to less immunityamong the adult population, which is a riskfor babies and young children, who aremost at risk of complications, because the

infection is so easily spread.“For influenza, for example, you have to

be relatively close to someone (to get theirgerms), but this can spread much more eas-ily and rapidly.”

Once infected, individuals can get severecoughing that can last for months; thecough can become so bad that it causespeople to gag or throw up and makes it dif-ficult to catch their breath.

“For children under one (who developwhooping cough), about half will end uphospitalized. Of those, about two per centwill pass away. It’s a high rate (of mortality)for an infectious disease.”

He notes that this outbreak was a minorone compared to significant outbreaks inrecent years in California and WashingtonState.

Though there’s been an increasing num-ber of parents in North America not vac-cinating their children, Van Buynder saysthat doesn’t seem to be a component in theHope outbreak.

“We don’t think that’s part of what weare seeing here,” he said. “But there aresome areas of the Fraser Valley where wehave significant pockets of people not hav-ing their children vaccinated.”

As for people in other areas of the healthregion, including New Westminster, therecommendations revert to the currentstandard vaccination schedule.

“At this point, we’re not recommendingboosters for adults outside the Hope area.(For parents) we’d say, make sure their chil-dren are fully vaccinated,” he said.

Coun.BettyMcIntosh.Thoseexperiences have made heraware most assaults involvesomeone known to the vic-tim, not strangers.

“It’s such a random thingto happen,” she said of theassault that occurred whenshe was walking to work.“I never thought it wouldhappen to me. I have beenwalking the MillenniumTrail since it was put in. Thiswas a total random thing.They thought I would be aneasy target.”

When police arrived,McIntosh showed the offi-cer where the assault hadoccurred. It wasn’t untilthen that she noticed bloodon her face and realized afavourite hat was soakingup blood from the gash onher head.

“I said, ‘If this hat isruined, I am going to findthose guys and beat themdown,’” she said of herreaction to ruining a hatfrom the Supernatural TVshow. “Luckily we have gotit all cleaned up, and I haveworn it since.”

McIntosh was takenby ambulance to RoyalColumbian Hospital, whereshe received nine stitchesfor the head laceration. Shedidn’t want to worry herparents until she knew theextent of her injuries, so shedidn’t contact them.

“My staff sergeanthad text messaged (ChiefConst.) Dave Jones. Hehopped in his car and cameright away,” she said. “Oneof the nurses said, ‘Is thisyour dad?’ I said, ‘No, thisis the chief of police.’”

While she doesn’t down-play the assault, McIntoshsaid that getting hit by a carwhile walking last May hashad more of an impact onhow she views safety.

“I saw the guys runaway from me. For me it islike they got scared of me.I won,” she said. “I couldget hurt by a car every-day. That’s what bugs memore.”

As a police dispatcher,McIntosh said she’s heardmany complaints aboutpedestrian accidents – butshe’snever takenacallabouta random personbeing hit over thehead by a liquorbottle. Althoughshe remains con-fident about thesafety of walkingin Queen’s Park,she plans to driveto work moreoften because shedoesn’t want tocause any moregrief for her lovedones.

“Everybody has been sosupportive,” she said. “Theeventuality of it happeningagain is one in a million.”

McIntosh said she’s beenwalking the same route towork for four years and hasnever had any problems.She takes a different routeand walks on city streetswhen it’s really dark.

“At the end of the daythey didn’t expect me tofight back. They didn’t getanything,” she said. “Allthey go from me was a shotin the groin. It might makethem think twice beforethey attack anybody else.”

New Westminster resi-dent Susan Wandell said agroup of residents is rally-ing to Take the Dark out ofQueen’sParkonWednesday,Jan. 11 at 6 p.m., startingat the Third Avenue andFirst Street entrance to thepark. Some Queen’s Parkresidents organized a walkthrough the park to showsupport for McIntosh and to

let thugs know that the parkbelongs to the residents ofthe city and residents won’tbe chased away.

McIntosh appreciatesthe support and welcomeslighting improvements inQueen’sPark–andthrough-out the city. As an “avidpedestrian,” she said light-ing improvements wouldimprove safety for people

walking in the cityand decreased thelikelihood of trip-ping, which sheconsiders a moreof a hazard thanbeing assaulted.

McIntosh sug-gests that pedestri-ans should be alertand aware of theirsurroundings, butthey shouldn’t beafraid of walking

in New Westminster.“Take this as a cau-

tionary tale and be morealert than I was,” she said.“Everything happens for areason. It sucks that it hap-pened to me. But it doesn’thappen every day. This ismy city. I am not going tobe afraid of anything in mycity. Stuff like this doesn’thappen every day.”

What surprises McIntoshmost about the incident isthat it happened at a timewhen people were usingthe park. While she wasshowing police the loca-tion of the incident, a joggerpassed by.

Wandell, a former presi-dent of the Arts Council ofNew Westminster, said she’sspoken to many peoplethrough the years who aretoo intimidated to attendevents at the arts council orBernie Legge Theatre after

dark unless they come bycar. “It’s a matter of bring-ing the attention to the city,seeing if they can bringmore light in.”

Dean Gibson, the city’sdirector of parks, cul-ture and recreation, saidimproved lighting has beenin the works for Queen’sPark for several months,as part of the new artifi-cial turf field built acrossfrom Queen’s Park Arena.The design phase is com-plete, and the project will befinalized and go to tenderswithin the next couple ofweeks.

“We are moving aheadas quickly as possible,” hesaid.

According to Gibson,more than $100,000 hasbeen allocated for theenhancements. Areas ofQueen’s Park set to receiveenhanced lighting are theparking lot on the north sideof the arena (across from the

new field) and the road-way (from the east side ofthe arena to Sixth Avenue).Lighting will be enhancedin areas where it alreadyexists and added in areaswhere none exists along theroadway.

“I think it would bebringing it up to a levelpeople would expect – stan-dard pedestrian level light-ing,” Gibson said.

The City of NewWestminster’s parks bylawprohibits people from beingin parks between dawn anddusk, but Gibson said thecity recognizes that parkshave facilities, such as are-nas and fields, that are usedin evening.

“Our practice has beenwe light the areas of thepark where we want andreasonably expect the pub-lic to be in evening hours,”he said.

Gibson said public inputwill also be sought about

park improvements as partof the master planningexercise for Queen’s Parkthat’s getting underwaythis spring.

“Generally speaking, ourparks are pretty safe places,“said Const. Bruce Carrie ofthe New Westminster PoliceService. “Like anywhere,incidents can occur as hap-pened here.”

Carrie advises residentsto exercise personal safety,which can be done by plan-ning their routes, avoidingisolated areas and beingalert and aware of their sur-roundings. While it’s beensaid that people shouldn’twalk alone in parks in thedark, Carrie said it’s stilluncommon for residents toencounter any problems.

“We really have a safecommunity,” he said.

Carrie said the assault is“a reminder to us to alwayspractise safe walking whenyou are out alone.”

Rainy weather and hockey gamescouldn’t dampen the spirits at the NewWestminster Firefighters’ CharitableSociety’s annual tree chipping event.

The society held its tree-chipping eventon Jan. 7 and 8 at the Canada GamesPool parking lot. During the year, thesociety distributes funds to groups suchas the pediatric unit at RoyalColumbian Hospital, the LowerMainland Purpose Society forYouth and Families, the RoyalCity Education Foundation,New Westminster Family Place,the Union Gospel Mission andothers.

“This event could not be done withoutthe many, many sponsors,” said firefighterGlen Bailey, president of the charitable soci-ety. “The money that is donated, with theexception of money going to the firefight-ers’ burn fund, always stays in the city.”

While the money is still being tallied,it’s estimated that the event raised $6,000to $7,000.

“Saturday we were going against thehuge Canucks game, and we had horribleweather. The Re/Max tent came in veryhandy because of the weather,” Bailey saidof a tent supplied annually by Re/MaxAdvantage Realty. “The people who did

come out were still incredibly generous.”While waves of people attended

Saturday’s event, there was a steady streamof residents on Sunday.

“Day 1, we shredded one-half a bin,”Bailey said. “Day 2, we almost called in fora second bin.”

In addition to chipping trees, firefightersbarbecued about 450 hotdogs. Unused hot-dogs and buns were donated to the UnionGospel Mission.

“Everything is by donation. It didn’tmatter if people donate or not,” Bailey said.“I think it’s a fun event. It has some fantasticmusic.”

Organizers weren’t originally planningto have music at this year’sevent, but some local teenagersasked to perform as they had inthe past.

“They rented some amps.They came out and donatedtheir time,” Bailey said. “Theywere a big hit.”

The charitable society teamed up withNew Westminster Scouts, who did a bottledrive at the event.

“I think it’s a real win-win situation,”Bailey said of the partnership. “It’s us tryingto give back to the community.”

Local firefighters also provided theScouts with several hundred pop cans fromthe tree chipping and previous events.

The New Westminster FirefightersCharitable Society will be holding its shred-a-fest on June 2 and its biannual HydrantCup hockey game in the fall. The firefight-ers’ hockey team will face off against theVancouver Canucks alumni.

Aha! I think we now knowa key source of NDPleader Adrian Dix’s pro-

fessed desire to bring a “modest”approach to governing.

Why, it’s none other than hismentor and ex-boss: former pre-mier Glen Clark!

After staying out of the pub-lic eye for a decade, Clark gavea wide-ranging interview withmy Global B.C. colleague JasJohal, and in it he showed hehas a far different perspective asa businessman than he did as apolitician.

The Clark of today seemsless enthralled with governmentbeing the answer to so manyproblems, thinks unions need tobe more flexible and cooperativewith management and under-stands the business of business isto make money and profits.

When he was premier, gov-ernment intervention in theeconomy was a key part of hisagenda. So were high taxes onbusinesses, another thing Clarkthe businessman doesn’t liketoday. Government is a big oper-ation, and Clark is now leery ofits effectiveness.

“I have less confidence in bigbureaucracies, government or

business, because they becomeso unwieldy and difficult tomanage,” he told Johal.

He still believes in fundamen-tal rights for workers but warnsunions have to change attitudesin the modern economy.

“In the world we’re in now …labour really has to think hardabout how they approach pri-vate business,” he said.

He thinks Crown corporationsexist to make money for govern-ment and not to simply “treatpeople better” without makinga profit.

And he’s acutely aware thatfree trade and globalizationare here to stay, and businesseshave to adapt quickly to change(it’s this kind of attitude that isviewed with horror by a numberof NDP activists).

Clark is, of course, the right-hand man of the godfather ofB.C. business, Jimmy Pattison.When Clark was hired byPattison soon after leaving officein a cloud of controversy, manypeople were shocked by theappointment.

But I wasn’t surprised atall, given Clark’s intelligenceand instincts and the fact thatPattison had long before voicedhis support for him (whichinfuriated the B.C. Liberals inthe run-up to the 1996 election,which Clark won).

And I’m not surprised Clarkhas risen through the ranks ofPattison’s empire to becomecompany president.

Clark is the type of guy who

The complexities of a debate over oilpipelines are enough to make you wantto stick your head in the tar sand andpretend nothing is happening.

If ever there were was a multi-facetedissue, it’s this one.

There’s jobs versus theenvironment. Domestic pri-orities versus international.Corporate interests versusindividual. Facts versus propaganda.Science versus spin.

Add plenty of partisan politics, adash of name-calling and the time-hon-

oured social tradition of framing everyissue as a black-and-white “us versusthem” battle, and it’s enough to throwyour hands up in their air and let some-one else figure it all out.

Which is kind of what’shappening anyway: the pub-lic hearing on the EnbridgeNorthern Gateway pipelinebegan yesterday in Kitimat,

where the line – carrying oil from theAlberta tar sands – will terminate. Forthe people of that region, the pipelineis both attractive (as a job creator) and

fearful (as a potential environmentalconcern), and no matter which side ofthe line they fall on (most, it wouldseem, are torn right down the middle)the issue is immediate and pressing.

For people elsewhere, like those of ushere in the Lower Mainland, the debateis a little more fuzzy and surreal: it’s theheadline on our morning paper, the hottopic on the nightly news, but not reallysomething that has our attention at thewater cooler (where these days, Snookiand her crew tend to dominate interest.)

But we should be paying very close

attention. We have, right here in ourbackyard in Burnaby, a major pipeline– and one that may be the source of anew debate right around the corner, astalk of expansion heats up.

Kinder Morgan has not said yetwhether they’ll be pursuing an expan-sion, but if they do, it’s a guaranteethat those “sides” lining up to fight inKitimat will come home to roost righthere.

It would serve us all well to learnwhat we can – the truth beyond the spin– while the battle plays out up north.

OUR VIEWTHE RECORD

Time to listen to hospital workersDear Editor:

Re: Hospital issues are ongoing, Letters to theeditor, The Record, by Judy Darcy, Jan. 6.

New Westminster’s recently appointed NDP can-didate said in her letter last week: “what’s happen-ing at RCH is a symptom of a bigger problem.”

I can’t agree more. It’s time to put patients firstand make the changes necessary in order to protectand defend our public health-care system, and it’stime to do it now.

Never is this more apparent than when NewWestminster’s own Royal Columbian Hospital, theregional trauma centre for the Lower Mainland,experiences one of its heavy load situations.

As someone with family members who work onthe front lines of health care at almost every majorhospital in the Lower Mainland, including RCH, Iam very familiar with the day-to-day experiences of

our valued health-care professionals and the greatcontribution they make to our society.

In listening to them, the issues and the solutionsthese front-line workers offer up seem to differgreatly from what I see being brought forward bythe special interest focused NDP candidate, whojust happens to have recently retired as the HospitalEmployees’ Union’s chief negotiator, in her care-fully worded letter.

These front-line workers talk of a system thatneeds to be more flexible in terms of which staff canhandle what issue.

They talk of the public not understanding theappropriate use of ERs and huge bureaucratic inef-ficiencies which diminish overall capacity. Theyalso talk about a need to invest in illness-preventionawareness, as well as the need to offer better sup-port for seniors at home.

Also, front-line health-care workers see a system◗Take Page 7◗Clark Page 7

that needs to be refocused so it can bettermeet the needs of patients in their com-munities, rather than just the financialpreferences of a bureaucracy.

And they want us to be investing in thehealth of individuals so they don’t haveto be in a hospital in the first place; forexample, the B.C. Liberal government’shighly successful QuitNow.ca program,which offers the public access to smokingcessation products.

About 34,000 people have taken up thisunique opportunity in just a few monthssince the program began, potentially sav-ing the health-care system tens of mil-lions of dollars in health-care spendingover the coming decades and offeringa higher quality of life for those BritishColumbians.

What they really don’t seem to agreewith is that more money for the big hospi-tals alone will solve the problem, as NewWestminster’s NDP candidate concludes.

It’s unfortunate to see that the NDPand its special interest candidate aren’tlistening to these front-line workers, letalone British Columbians.

All we get from the NDP, and its big-labour-boss-turned-politician representa-tive in New Westminster, is rhetoric andreactionary spending promises with noplan to pay for them.

It’s time to break the repetitive cycleof the past several decades of simplypainting over problems with money. It’stime to engage in a robust provincialdebate with British Columbians via anindependent public commission process,with health-care providers and all thestakeholders so that we can cure the realillness in the public health-care system,not just the symptoms.

The result of this process should be aplan to build a health-care system thatlives in the reality of the 21st century; onethat delivers the care people need where,and the way, they need it, and one thatbetter supports health-care providers, sothat public health care will be there for allof us in the generations to come.

I am sure that any one of those patientsreceiving care in a hallway will tell youthere is no more time to waste.

British Columbians want the politicsout of health care and the “lines in thesand” washed away. They want theirhealth to be the first and only bottomline.

I believe all of this is possible when wetake the “agendas” out of the health-caredebate and replace them with empathy,understanding and compassion. Then,and only then, will we be truly puttingpatients first and ensuring they get thecare and dignity they deserve.

tends to dominate what-ever group he happens tobe part of.

The question that arisesnow, of course, is whatkind of influence will thisex-politician, who hassignificantly changed hisphilosophy, have on theman who has a very goodshot at taking on the samejob he used to have?

The ties between Clarkand Dix are deep and sig-nificant.

Clark always struck meas a mentor of sorts forDix, as the two men forgeda close bond between 1991(when Dix began workingfor him as a ministerialassistant) and 1999, whenDix was forced to quit ashis chief of staff.

In 2005, Dix endedup taking over Clark’s

old riding of VancouverKingsway, and the tworemain close friends.

So it’s hard to think thata more conservative Clarkwon’t have a significantimpact on Dix’s own polit-ical philosophy.

Although the B.C.Liberals are trying to por-tray Dix as some kind offar-left socialist menace,the only evidence – if youcan call it that – to back upthat assertion is dredgingup the track record of theNDP government of the1990s.

Dix has offered preciouslittle evidence of his ownto help them.

He’s proposed raisingcorporate taxes to the lev-els the B.C. Liberals them-selves established in 2008,which is hardly a radicalsocialist policy.

Instead, Dix is talkingabout narrowing the activ-ities of government insteadof expanding them – justas his old boss advocates.

So don’t be surprised ifDix turns out to be closerto the new Glen Clark thanthe old one: more moder-ate, business-friendly andless activist.

After all, if one of thetop figures in the formerNDP government canchange so much, why can’tanother?

(By the way, Johal’sthree-part series on Clarkand Pattison – entitled TheOdd Couple: the Premier andthe Billionaire – can be seenon Global B.C.’s website.It contains more extensivefootage of the interviewwith Clark).

It’s business as usual at the NewWestminster Animal Shelter after 26 catscontracted an infectious feline viral diseasein November.

One cat died from the virus and 25 catswere euthanized after contracting a strainof calicivirus that has a 70 per cent mortal-ity rate. All of the cats housed at the NewWestminster Animal Shelter tested positivefor calicivirus.

“After the cats were euthanized, we wentthrough the decontamination process,” saidDave Cole, the city’s supervisor of animalservices. “We had a company come in thatspecializes in an ozone gas decontamina-tion.”

Cole said the building was tested andit was determined the virus was no longerpresent at the facility.

“We are focusing on maybe looking atour procedures and how we do the isola-tion,” he said. “We have never experienced

this in 20-some-odd years of operation.”Staff is considering whether there are

different ways to organize the isolation andstorage rooms to prevent this type of situa-tion. They’ll also be reviewing proceduresrelated to the intake of new cats.

Cole said there has been some talk abouta new animal shelter being built in NewWestminster in the next three to five years,but at this point staff is focusing on whatcan be done at the current facility.

As of Jan. 3, seven dogs and threecats were available for adoption at theNew Westminster Animal Shelter inQueensborough. While visitors were pro-hibited when the animals were in quaran-tine, volunteers are now returning to thefacility.

“We have got everything back to theway we want it,” Cole said. “We are openfor business.”

New cats coming into the shelter go intoisolation, are checked by a veterinarian andare determined to be in good health beforebeing placed with other cats at the shelter.

Page 9: New West Record - January 11, 2012

The City of New Westminster is pilot-ing programs aimed at making recyclingeasier for Royal City residents.

Residents may have noted that several“public space recycling kiosks” have beenplaced at several locations in the city. Thepilot project was launched in October, andKristian Davis, the city’s supervisor ofsolid waste and recycling, said it’s goingwell.

“We have five of them so far. We haveplans to implement more in 2012,” Davissaid. “We have had a few comments about,‘finally New West has recycling optionsprovided at street level.’”

Davis said the city wants to test thekiosks and see if this is something thatcould be expanded. They accept itemssuch as bottles and cans, waste and news-papers.

Councillors Jonathan Cote and BillHarper had recommended the publicspace recycling program to city council,having seen a successful program duringa visit to Halifax. While one public spacerecycling program has technology thatincludes solar compacting of recyclables,the City of New Westminster opted againstunits that cost $10,000 each and purchasedfive units that cost $800.

Davis said staff collects the waste fromthe kiosks several times a week, and thecontents are taken to the city’s works yardand monitored to see how well the pro-gram is doing.

Kiosks can be found at Hyack Square,the New Westminster SkyTrain station (onEighth Street), the corner of Sixth Avenueand Seventh Street, outside the ColumbiaSkyTrain station (on Columbia Street) andnear Sapperton Park (at the corner ofSherbrooke and East Columbia streets).Future sites could include the 22nd Street

SkyTrain station, the waterfront board-walk and uptown and downtown com-mercial areas.

“It’s been going very well,” Davis said.“I hate to sound like a broken record. …When you are providing people with morerecycling options, the feedback you get isgenerally positive.”

A similar story is unfolding with themulti-family organics pilot project that gotunderway in April 2011. The pilot project

involves the collection of organics from ahandful of multi-family residences, a ser-vice that’s currently only offered citywideto single-family homes.

“We currently have six apartments tak-ing part,” Davis said. “It’s at no additionalcost to those taking part.”

Jim Lowrie, the city’s director of engi-neering, said staff will report to council onthe program in February, but early indica-tions are that it’s been positive, has had

good participation rates and hasn’t seen alot of contamination of items.

Council approved the pilot project inFebruary 2011 and suggested the servicecould be incorporated into the city’s exist-ing multi-family collection services. Thecity had estimated at the time that foodscraps recycling would help divert 20 to 30per cent of waste generated by residents inthe multi-family sector.

The new year marked the beginningof New Westminster’s single-stream recy-cling program.

Instead of sorting recyclables such asglass, paper, tins and newspapers intovarious categories, all recyclables are nowplaced in one big bin. The program beganJan. 3 with pickup of garbage and greens,and continued the next week with collec-tion of recyclables and greens.

“So far it has been good,” said KristianDavis, the city’s supervisor of solid wasteand recycling. “We haven’t had too manycomplaints.”

Davis said the program was imple-mented as part of the city’s goal of reach-ing the regional mandate to divert 70 percent of waste from the landfills by 2015.“The city has adopted several initiatives incompliance with Metro Vancouver’s inte-grated solid waste management plan.”

Items such as newspapers and flyers,paper products, foil plates, plastic bottles

and containers with codes 1, 2, 4 and 5,glass bottles and jars, and flattened milkjugs can be placed in the new carts.

According to Davis, Metro Vancouveris considering regional initiatives suchas increased education and outreach andbans on certain items at landfills andincinerators.

In New Westminster, the new bins thatare needed to implement the single-streamrecycling program and to accommodatethe city’s automated trucks were deliveredin December. Residents now have a 240-

litre container for recyclables and a 120-lcontainer for garbage.

“Our standard size container is 120 l.You can pay more to upsize to a 240 l,” saidDavis, adding that the city received about30 requests for larger bins. “I thought therewas going to be more.”

Davis has consulted with his colleaguesin Port Moody and Port Coquitlam, wherethe single-stream collection has beenunderway for some time.

Worm composting isavailable to residents ofmulti-family dwellings, butno food scrap collection pro-gram is currently offered.

Funding for the pilotproject, estimated to cost$12,000, was included inthe solid waste utility’s 2011operating budget.

If expanded citywide,Davis said the programwould result in a slightincrease in utility fees forresidents of multi-fam-ily dwellings. He said their2011 rates were $17.50 perunit, and the added servicescould result in an additionalcost of $4 to $6 per unit peryear.

While city crews collectgarbage and recyclablesfrom single-family homes,the city subcontracts WasteManagement to collect frommultifamily dwellings.

“We also subcontract-ed Waste Management todo this as a pilot project,”he said. “This has beengoing exceptionally well.I would like to congratu-late the efforts of WasteManagement.”

Beforerollingoutthepilotproject, Waste Managementstaff spoke to residents atthe six buildings about the

program and handed outinformation to help them.

“We have had zero con-tamination whatsoever,which is almost unheardof in a multi-family pilot,”Davis said.

Davis said he receives alot of calls from residentsof multi-family residencesasking about organics col-lection.

“I would like to stepin and say we can pro-

vide that service,” he said.“Ultimately it is a councildecision.”

Davis will report tocouncil on the success of thepilot program in February.He will be recommending

that it be expanded city-wide so the city is offeringthe same service to residentsof multi-family residencesas single-family homes andto allow the city to reachMetro Vancouver’s 70 per

cent waste diversion goals.“I’d like to give all resi-

dents and fair and honestopportunity to recycle anddispose of what they havein the most responsible waypossible,” he said.

that upon ourselves. It iskind of exciting,” he said.

Davis anticipates resi-dents may have some ques-tions as new zones havebeen created for the newprogram. Instead of collect-ing garbage and recyclingfive days a week, staff willbe working longer daysand collecting garbagefrom residences four days aweek – which means a shiftto the collection schedules.

Davis noted that resi-dents will also see the samecity staff in their neighbour-hoods twice a day – oncewhen they pick up recy-clables (which will then betaken to their designationand dumped) and later topick up organics.

The varsity Knightsfashioned one of themost exciting finishesin the 46-year history ofthe Chancellortournament,defeating a hotshooting LordTweedsmuirPanthers 76-75 in overtimein the tourna-ment final onSaturday.

Leading byseven pointsheading intothe final quar-ter, STMlost momen-tum againstthe stiflingTweedsmuirhalf-court trapand the lights-out shoot-ing by offensive player ofthe game Paanu Sahi.

Sahi nailed three of hisgame-high seven three-pointers in the final 10minutes, along with fiveof five from the free-throwline. His sixth trey of thenight, from the baseline,drew the two teams evenat 58-58 midway throughthe final frame.

STM fought back andtook a 63-59 lead on a float-er to the basket by juniorguard Jalen Jana with threeminutes to play.

But Tweedsmuir brokeback, taking advantage ofa string of STM turnoversin the final minutes.

Panther guard MikeMessenger potted a turn-around jumper to give theSurrey school a one-pointlead in the final seconds.

Forced to foul to stopthe clock and trailing bythree points, STM pulled

some last-second magicout of a hat on a despera-tion three-pointer by tour-nament MVP AndrewMorris with no time lefton the clock, sending thegame into overtime.

In the five-minuteextra time, Grade 11 postGiovanni Trasolini scoreda pair of buckets, including

his fifth offen-sive reboundof the gameon a putback,that put theKnights intothe lead forgood.

“I figuredwe had toscore some-how. I justthrew it up,but whenI saw it gothrough thehoop, it wasamazing,”said Morrisafter the

game.Morris potted 15 points

and had 11 rebounds forthe Knights, while Trasolinialso helped himself to adouble-double, scoring 14points and hauling in 15boards.

First-team all-star BenHieltjes led the Knightswith 21 points.

Senior guard MikeyCarney also made the all-tournament first team.Denzel Laguerta was asecond-team pick.

First-teamers PavanLehal and Sahi toppedall scorers with 23 and 22points, respectively.

Morris helped STMsuccessfully through thetourney, potting a total of57 points in his first threegames.

STM opened withan 89-35 whitewash ofSutherland on Jan. 4. TheKnights edged EnverCreek 68-61 on Thursday

before beating up onAAA honourable mentionMaple Ridge 74-47 in thesemifinals.

“Since Grade 8, we’vebeen a real team,” saidMorris of the Knights’effort. “We’ve stayed asa whole and played as ateam. That’s what makes

us special, it is how wework as a group.”

For STM head coachAaron Mitchell, the winsat the Chancellor put theAA No. 7-ranked Knightsback on the rails.

“It’s as exciting asit gets. It’s great for theteam and great for the

program,” said Mitchell ofthe title game. “It’s greatwe have this momentumback. But we can’t get toohigh. We have to maintainthat balance.”

The tournament winwas the Knights firstChancellor tournamenttitle since 2007.

The St. Thomas MoreChancellor tournament has beena fickle friend to the Byrne CreekBulldogs boys’ basketball team.

The AAA No. 10-rankedBulldogs had another less thanmemorable appearance, finishingin seventh place overall followingan 83-74 loss to AA No. 2 G.W.Graham from Chilliwack in theconsolation final on Saturday.

“To play a high level of basket-ball, there has to be some struc-ture, and this wasn’t that,” saidByrne Creek head coach Wayne

Best after the game. “With theparity this season, the mentallystrong teams will rise to the top.”

After a title win at theGleneagle Talons Classic that sawwins over ranked teams from SirCharles Tupper and R.C. Palmer,and Carson Graham, the mercu-rial Bulldogs finished with a 2-2record at the Chancellor, includ-ing a 74-70 overtime loss to AAAhonourable mention Maple Ridgein the quarter-finals.

Best substituted liberally in thehopes of finding a winning com-bination against Graham’s full-court pressure, but none provedultimately successful.

All-tournament honourablemention Kennedy George led theBulldogs with 23 points, while 6-5senior Jada Lado chipped in with17 points. Seven other Bulldogscontributed to the scoreline.

Second-team tournament all-star Lucas Mannes was the dif-ference in the matchup, gunninga game-high 28 points for theGrizzlies, including 13 of 16 freethrows from the second quarteron.

Hamdy Farah put Byrne Creekinto a 71-65 lead midway throughthe final quarter, but a string ofturnovers turned the tide in theGrizzlies’ favour.

George scored 48 total pointsin the Bulldogs’ first three games,including 17 in a 63-54 win overEnver Creek to advance into theconsolation placement round onSaturday.
