Burnaby mosque receives threatsParliament Hill shooter worshipped there

Wanda [email protected]

The Burnaby mosque once attended by the Parliament Hill shooter has already received threats, says the spokesperson for the B.C. Muslim Association.

The Al-Salaam mosque has received threats in the past, most recently following Wednesday’s incident in Ottawa, said Mufti Aasim Rashid. That’s when Michael Zehaf-Bibeau fatally shot Cpl. Nathan Cirillo, who was standing as an honour guard at the National War Memorial, before running into the Parliament Buildings where he was then shot and killed by security staff.

Rashid was speaking at a press conference held Friday at the mosque on Canada Way at Sperling Avenue, which was attended by international media including journalists from the Wall Street Journal, Associated Press, CNN and the UK Telegraph.

He said the threats were mainly through emails and have been reported to RCMP.

Protesters prepare to face Kinder MorganMario [email protected]

A group calling itself “The Caretakers” says they will do “what we can do” to hinder Kinder Morgan from accessing two sites on Burnaby Mountain where the pipeline company wants to drill bore holes to take soil samples.

The work is required for the company to determine if it can run its proposed expanded Trans

Mountain pipeline beneath the mountain en route to its Westridge Marine Terminal in North Burnaby.

The City of Burnaby has already tried to block that work from proceeding, but on Thursday the National Energy Board issued an order granting Kinder Morgan access to the mountain to complete its geotechnical studies.

On Friday the company

submitted its required 48-hour notice of its intentions to continue work on the mountain.

But Stephen Collis, a spokesman for The Caretakers, said Kinder Morgan workers will have to go through his group’s band of “citizen rangers.”

They’ve built a motley encampment along Centennial Way where one of the bore holes is supposed to be

drilled. Another group is holding vigil deeper in the woods where the pipeline company has already felled several trees in preparation for its drilling.

Collis was one of about a dozen volunteers at the encampment Monday morning.

Some stood in groups of two or three, huddled against a cool fall breeze, chatting quietly. Others hooked up a propane tank to a camping stove to prepare lunch.

‘Citizen rangers’ vow to defend mountain

MArIO bArteL/NeWSLeADera group calling itself “the caretakers” has built an encampment along centennial way on burnaby mountain to prevent access to two sites where pipeline company kinder morgan wants to drill bore holes for soil samples. stephen collis says the group will do “what we can do” to delay that work from happening.

“It was more general towards Muslims … or their religion or their places of prayer. And the idea was to create this fear that ‘you’re not safe from us,’ from whoever these people are.”

Rashid confirmed Zehaf-Bibeau did attend the Burnaby mosque for three or four months in late 2011 and possibly early 2012.

He was described by mosque administrators from that time as someone who kept largely to himself. He also objected to the mosque’s openness and frequent visits by non-Muslims.

The mosque administration sat him down and explained to him the mosque “operates on a foundation of welcome, of community outreach and interfaith dialogue, and that cannot take place when we close the doors on our neighbours,” Rashid said.

Zehaf-Bibeau was told he could go pray at another mosque if he was not okay with that. But he continued to attend, he said.

When Zehaf-Bibeau was in trouble with the law, in and out of prison, he tried to use the mosque as accommodations. Mosque

caretakers warned him not to do so but it happened two to three times before he was actually caught sleeping there one night.

“At that time he was told to leave the premises, not to sleep here again and not to come back here again.” That’s when the mosque’s locks were changed.

It was the last interaction mosque officials had with him, Rashid said, adding they’re unable to confirm reports that he had attended the mosque in recent weeks and months.

Zehaf-Bibeau never raised concerns that he would do anything violent or criminal and so there was no reason to report his views to police, he said.

Rashid confirmed Hasibullah Yusufzai, 25, also prayed at the mosque two to three years ago. “At some point he was asked to leave this mosque because of some views he was expressing, that much we do know.”

Yusufzai, a Burnaby resident, was charged July 17 under Canada’s new anti-terrorism laws with leaving Canada to take part in terrorist activity. He is being sought by RCMP and is alleged to have left the country in January for

Syria where he planned to join Islamist fighters.

Rashid said in a later interview that he was not aware whether the two men had any contact but noted media reports said investigators found they had exchanged emails.

Musa Ismail, president of the B.C. Muslim Association, noted that everyone is welcome at their mosques around the Lower Mainland and thousands of people have come through their doors over

the decades. “This is two incidents

that we know of. It happens to be, coincidentally, at this mosque.”

The association has begun work on developing a preventive program to educate Muslims and non-Muslims about the actual teachings of Islam, rather than the propaganda coming from terrorist groups such as ISIS, Rashid said. That work started with meetings with RCMP last weekend, before the

attack in Ottawa.The propaganda being

disseminated through the Internet and social media is accessible to anyone in the world making it difficult to track, he said.

“The criminal acts that we have seen in Canada this week reflect on the individuals that committed them and not on the community,” stressed RCMP assistant commissioner Wayne Rideout. The B.C. RCMP’s national security program

has been working with the province’s Muslim community since 2005.

As for identifying potential threats, Rideout said, “That is what’s great about our society, is people have the right to their own beliefs and their own thoughts.”

He said what people need to look out for are sudden changes in behaviour that are out of the norm, a tendency to advocate violence or fixate on individuals or institutions.

“The Qur’an is a book of guidance, it is not a doctrine of violence,” Rashid said. “Any act of criminal violence has no place in our society.”

Rashid said in a later interview that people who “self-radicalize,” who have violent tendencies, “these are not the kind of people that are going to hang around the mainstream community, these are not going to be the mosque-goers … they’re going to be in the shadows.”

Zehaf-Bibeau drifted in and out, he said. He was described by mosque officials as a loner, “kind of reclusive, kept to himself and not very well mannered.”

He is flanked by Wayne Rideout, assistant commissioner of the RCMP, and Musa Ismail, president of the B.C. Muslim Association.

Collis said the group’s intent is to “be in the way” of Kinder Morgan accomplishing its work so various legal avenues being pursued by the City of Burnaby to keep the company off Burnaby Mountain can have a chance to kick in.

To do that they’ve erected a

tent over the spot where bore hole #2 is supposed to be drilled into the mountain. It’s surrounded by a hodgepodge assembly of tree branches, discarded building materials like boards, a sheet of plexiglass, and even an old mattress, computer keyboard and plastic Polaroid camera. It’s decorated with bright orange

safety vests as well as a couple of jack-o-lanterns with “Stop Kinder Morgan” carved into their round faces.

“This is visual, this is an obstacle,” said Collis.

He said the group is comprised of 70-80 volunteers, some of whom work or study at Simon Fraser University on Burnaby

Mountain, or who have some sort of interest in preserving the mountain’s park setting.

He said members of the group have been erecting and manning the encampment for a few weeks. A camper van parked behind the tent allows someone to stay there through the night.

Collis said now that Kinder

Morgan has filed notice of its intention to continue working on the mountain, anticipation of some sort of confrontation is running high.

“We know they’re coming,” said Collis. “As long as we’re organized, we’ll stand in the way.”

That could include civil disobedience, said Collis.

NEB rules in favour of Kinder MorganGrants access to Burnaby Mountain, city plans to appealWanda [email protected]

The National Energy Board (NEB) has ruled in favour of Kinder Morgan, issuing an order granting it access to Burnaby Mountain for its study work.

But Burnaby’s mayor says the fight is far

from over.The company had

sought the order to allow it to do survey work and geotechnical studies to determine whether it can tunnel through the mountain for its proposed Trans Mountain pipeline expansion.

The work started early last month until City of Burnaby staff issued stop work orders and tickets for

bylaw violations after the company’s crews cut down trees and disrupted traffic in the conservation area.

In the ruling released Thursday, the NEB also decided on the constitutional issue, determining that the National Energy Board Act gives it the authority to override City of Burnaby bylaws.

The order prevents city officials from blocking the company in its work on Burnaby Mountain. The company is required to give Burnaby 48 hours written notice before entering the park to carry out the surveys and studies and if traffic is to be disrupted, it must

submit a traffic plan. It must also do as little damage as possible and remediate as much as possible any damage it does do.

The decision came following a hearing Oct. 9 in Calgary. While all attorneys general of Canada and all the provinces were invited to participate, none chose to do so.

This is the first time the NEB has issued an order to a municipality.

“We have issued them before to private landowners but we’re talking about a municipality here so it’s quite a different situation,” said NEB spokesperson Sarah Kiley from Calgary.

House of horror weeks in makingMario [email protected]

Halloween is bigger than Christmas at the Aravena household on Elford Street.

That’s when Chico Aravena and his two sons, Kyano and Chayann, get to dole out gifts of ghastly ghouls to neighbours and visitors to the fantastically frightening graveyards, wicked

workshops and giant spider’s web that occupy the entire backyard for three weeks leading up to Halloween.

The display has been a seasonal fixture for more than 15 years, growing by a few chilling characters and spooky scenarios every year.

“It’s like a hobby for us,” said Chico, who estimates there are now almost 500 severed heads, dismembered pirates, monsters, evil scientists and axe murderers

populating his backyard.Chico and his sons start

brainstorming the display in September and then spend a couple of weeks assembling it.

They keep it fresh by adding new elements, including animated characters, a smoke machine, and scary sounds.

The trio dresses up in disquieting costumes every evening to bring lurid life to their creation.

MARIO BARTEL/NEWSLEADERChico Aravena has been scaring neighbours and visitors to this Elford Street home for more than 15 years with an elaborate Halloween display that includes more than 400 scary characters.

In response to Tom Fletcher’s BC Views column in NewsLeader Oct. 1 and headlined “Is CUPE running your city hall?” Mark Hancock, president of CUPE BC, whose members work for cities around the province, wrote the following opinion piece:

Recently, The NewsLeader

ran a column by Tom Fletcher suggesting that the Canadian Union of Public Employees was running city halls in British Columbia.

Mr. Fletcher’s column was based on a shoddy report done by the provincial government about pay for municipal employees. Both Mr. Fletcher’s column and the provincial report shared something in common: Despite the fact the report focused on local governments, neither Mr. Fletcher nor the authors of the report bothered to talk to local government representatives.

And this is not surprising because Mr. Fletcher and others are dealing with a solution in search of a problem. The solution is to force a provincial government-controlled

bargaining model on locally elected city councils. The problem? Well, that’s what Mr. Fletcher and others are working on creating.

If Mr. Fletcher had spoken to Rona Martin, president of the Union of BC Municipalities (UBCM), or even read the UBCM statement, he would have found that the provincial report acknowledges 26 times there are limitations in the data to support analysis of municipal pay. The report goes on to reach grand conclusions anyway.

Ms. Martin also notes that compensation for police and firefighters, and even BC Ferries and TransLink, is lumped in — even though local governments have no control over compensation for these groups.

Kelowna Mayor Walter Gray echoed the UBCM concerns and noted flawed data from what he

called “some taxpayer groups” like the Fraser Institute, the Canadian Taxpayers Federation and the Canadian Federation of Independent Business.

It is true that the cost of local government has gone up. Andy Shadrack, a director for the Regional District of Central Kootenay, said that he had spent the last nine years “trying to prevent provincial and federal governments from implementing more and more expensive regulations, rules and required services for local government to provide.”

The bill for this downloading of costs by senior government onto local governments has been huge, according to a recent report from the B.C.-based Columbia Institute. Between 2001 and 2010, local spending on sewer services went up by 173%, on policing by 134% and on water services by 130%.

All of these increases were driven either by provincial or federal regulations, or provincial control.

Finally, let’s look at Mr. Fletcher’s key target: CUPE’s wage settlements, the only actual

cost he identifies. Over the last decade, CUPE’s wage settlements with local governments have tended to mirror settlements negotiated in the private sector. If you check with B.C.’s statistics agency, you will find both CUPE and private sector agreements have been lower than the growth in the province’s wealth (the provincial gross domestic product) and lower than the increase in average weekly wages for the province as a whole.

As Derek Corrigan, mayor of Burnaby, which was described by Maclean’s magazine as Canada’s best run city, put it: “I’ll put the fiscal responsibility of our cities against the provincial government any day of the week.”

It would have been helpful if the authors of the provincial government report had actually talked to local governments and examined any of these issues.

As a journalist, it would have been responsible for Mr. Fletcher to do the same. Instead, his column serves as a free plug for the Christy Clark government’s ham-fisted solution in search of a non-existent problem.

Workers not problem at city halls

There are going to be some residents in B.C. who question why local health authorities are allocating so many resources into Ebola response efforts.

How can the disease – that’s infecting and killing thousands in western Africa – show up here?

It’s a valid question, especially when resources are stretched thin already.

But better to be safe than sorry, especially as threats have started trickling in, however slowly.

There have been confirmed cases in Texas, while several Canadians across the country have been tested for Ebola-like symptoms.

We live in a world that is increasingly small, with local residents travelling well beyond our communities for any number of reasons. It’s entirely reasonable to think that someone from here may be in Western Africa or somewhere else where the threat is real.

As a result, local authorities have to be prepared for someone with Ebola-like symptoms to walk into a hospital, which is why Surrey Memorial Hospital has been named as the region’s Ebola headquarters, of sorts. Any patient with symptoms of Ebola will be isolated there.

There are concerns with that, too, however.

The B.C. Nurses Union has raised alarm bells about the health authority’s ability to properly and safely handle a patient who may have Ebola. More specifically, the union is concerned that the new system at SMH puts its nurses at risk.

And while Fraser Health’s executive medical director for infection prevention and control insists otherwise – saying anxiety and misunderstanding are to blame for the current concerns – it is up to health authorities and the provincial government to keep safe those in charge of helping others, namely nurses and other hospital employees.

VICTORIA – The B.C. government is preparing to declare the second Sunday of September Terry Fox Day, recognizing the annual Marathon of Hope events around the world that raise money for cancer research.

Port Moody-Coquitlam MLA Linda Reimer presented a private member’s bill Thursday to recognize the day the annual runs have been held since 1980, when Fox embarked on a cross-country run that was cut short by a relapse of cancer.

As a student at Simon Fraser University, Reimer recalled seeing Fox run around the campus quadrangle and wondering what he was training for.

“It honours a great man whose combination of strength, passion, idealism and sheer guts led to the impossible notion that he would run across Canada on one good leg and a prosthesis, the equivalent of a marathon a day,” Reimer told the legislature.

Premier Christy Clark said Reimer’s bill is expected to pass with unanimous support next week. She met with Terry’s

father Rolly, sister Judith and brothers Darrell and Fred in her office Thursday to speak to reporters.

Darrell Fox said the declaration will encourage volunteers who organize Terry Fox runs, who have raised $650 million in the past 34 years.

“That’s why we’re so excited, because it gives them something to look forward to, to promote next year, and the fact that it has happened here in B.C.,” he said. “Terry Fox is everywhere, across this country and around the world, but he was from Port Coquitlam.”

Regional district taxes rise to $427 for typical homeJeff NagelBlack Press

The average Metro Vancouver household will pay $427 in user fees and taxes to the regional district next year – an extra $5 – as a result of rising utility costs.

The increase was approved by the Metro board Friday and the actual household impact varies somewhat by community because of different apportionment of sewage treatment upgrade costs.

The regional district’s average charge is based on a home assessed at $715,000 and will be added to 2015 property tax bills along with municipal, school and TransLink taxes.

Metro Vancouver’s $659 million operating budget for

2015 is up 0.8 per cent.About two thirds of all

spending goes to running the drinking water and sewage treatment systems.

Garbage tipping fees will go up $1 to $109 per tonne, but the actual charge to the average household is expected to be flat or slightly lower as a result of increased recycling and less overall disposal of garbage.

However, the regional district is forecasting a $4.4 million shortfall on its waste services next year as a result of the provincial government’s rejection of Metro’s ban on hauling waste out of region.

Each additional truckload of garbage hauled out of the region to take advantage of cheaper disposal alternatives means less tipping fees collected by Metro.

The drop in revenue next year

will come out of a $10 million reserve fund, but board chair Greg Moore said that fund will have to be replenished.

The budget includes $7 million to advance Metro’s plan to build a new waste-to-energy plant, despite increased uncertainty as to its viability. Nearly $12 million will also be spent on upgrades at the existing incinerator in Burnaby.

Much of the increased spending is to maintain, upgrade and expand the drinking water and sewage systems. Major projects that continue in 2015 include a big expansion of the Annacis Island sewage treatment plant and seismic upgrades to the drinking water supply system, including a new $240-million water supply tunnel under the Fraser River to supply growing areas of Surrey and Langley.

Average home will pay extra $5 to Metro Vancouver

Sometimes their hair-raising hi jinx catch unwitting passersby by surprise, as the last thing they expect on their traverse of the Cariboo Heights neighbourhood is a genuine house of horrors. Even Chico admits he sometimes gets creeped out after the last visitors have left for the evening and he’s walking through the grim garden, turning off various lights and special effects.

But mostly the Halloween display is a lot of fun. Chico said they’ll tone down the horror when lots of younger children are present so they’re not traumatized.

And a fistful of candy can go a long way to soothe any frayed nerves.

• The Aravena’s Halloween house is at 7710 Elford St., where it meets Holmes. It operates nightly until Halloween when it will be followed by a fireworks display.

In its ruling, the NEB noted that the board must meet its requirements and make a recommendation to the government whether or not to allow the pipeline project to go ahead. It can’t do that if it does not have the detailed technical information Kinder Morgan’s study work would provide.

“While Burnaby is well within its rights to oppose a proposed interprovincial pipeline expansion, in this case it is attempting to use the impugned bylaws to block the board’s information requirements.”

Kiley said the ruling doesn’t necessarily apply to other municipalities which may also challenge the company’s use of city lands.

The NEB’s legal counsel advised “it’s really specific to these particular bylaws, this particular circumstance,” she said. “Whether this would apply in another situation, that remains to be seen.”

Kiley stressed, “They are required to do as little damage as possible and then to compensate if they do in fact cause damage.”

Burnaby Mayor Derek

Corrigan said Thursday afternoon he was not surprised by the ruling.

“I don’t think I expected anything different. I mean, we’re always hopeful.”

But Corrigan said the NEB has “consistently shown favouritism to Kinder Morgan’s application from the very beginning.”

Calling the pipeline review process “deeply flawed,” he said

the case has widespread implications.

“It’s not confined to our city. What this is is that federal boards can make orders in favour of multinational American companies that can

overrule your local laws and the desire of your citizens. And that, very clearly, affects everyone.”

It’s a situation similar to those involving other federal agencies, such as Port Metro Vancouver which, he said, doesn’t believe Metro Vancouver’s air quality laws should apply to its areas of jurisdiction.

Burnaby’s lawyers will try to get a stay of the order while it appeals the decision, Corrigan said.

“We will start filing

immediately and our lawyer will do everything that’s necessary for us to be able to appeal this decision, and then we’ll go from there.”

Corrigan expects Kinder Morgan will move as quickly as it can to start work on the mountain. “They’re going to pay a heavy price in their public relations for attempting to impose their will on people.”

Kinder Morgan was satisfied with the decision.

“We’re pleased with the NEB’s ruling and the order issued to the City of Burnaby,” said Lizette Parsons Bell, spokesperson for the Trans Mountain expansion project, in an emailed statement. “While our preference is to work cooperatively with the City, at the end of the day our goal is to complete the studies needed for the proposed expansion and we’ll be reviewing our options for continuing the work.”

It is proposing to almost triple capacity of its Trans Mountain pipeline between Edmonton and Burnaby. That would allow for increased exports of oil sands crude to overseas markets via a significant increase in oil tankers in Burrard Inlet.

Three baby barn owls that were displaced by the dismantling of the old Port Mann Bridge are recovering at the Wildlife Rescue Association in Burnaby.Photo contributed

Three baby barn owls lost their home with the dismantling of the old Port Mann Bridge.

But they are now recovering thanks to the intervention of an alert construction worker and Burnaby’s Wildlife Rescue Association.

The owl’s nest was not spotted until after the section was relocated to a site in Coquitlam and when the

parents did not return after a day, the two- to seven-week-old birds were transferred to the WRA’s Burnaby rescue centre.

When they arrived Tuesday evening, the owlets were in poor shape — emaciated, dehydrated and hypothermic after a day without food and water. The youngest of the three was on its back and barely conscious while its siblings had trouble

standing.They were given fluids

and placed in an incubator, then later hand-fed, which caused them to perk up. After spending the night recuperating form their ordeal, they were transferred to the Orphaned Wildlife Rehabilitation Society (OWL) in Delta, which has special facilities for rearing young owls.

Welcome to the NewsLeader’s A-List.This summer, we put the call out to

readers, in the form of a survey, asking residents to name some of their favourite shops and services in the city.

The list includes restaurants— with everything from best place for beers on tap, best wine list and best place for fish and chips—to where to get a great facial, a top-notch mechanic, a deal on a used car, or stylish clothes.

It may not be a precise, scientific survey,

but it’s a great way to get a sense of some of the great businesses that are worth visiting in Burnaby.

It will also give you a good start when you’re looking to buy something special, or that expert advice when you’re in need.

If anything, I hope the A-List gives you an even greater appreciation for all the amazing offerings in this city.

Congratulations to all who made this year’s A-List!

—Chris Bryan, Editor

WE ASKED: What makes Burnaby great?

Manny Sobral back in 2009 in the old

Burnaby Boxing Club, just before

it was demolished. Sobral boxed in the

1988 Olympics in Seoul, Korea.

Burnaby Village Museum! A unique place for kids and families to learn about history, in an interactive, open and fun environment where children can really appreciate the history of their land as well as to have fun with all the dynamic activities, enjoy nature and ice/cream and carousel ride.

What a fantastic way to bond with the family, with the culture and with the history of our land!

Manny Sobral

• • • • •

When the World Police and Fire Games Board came to our city to inspect our facilities for our bid to host the 2009 Games they said our sports facilities were the best they had ever encountered. We had set

the standard. It was a great endorsement

and we are the envy of many for what we can provide in the way of said facilities. And, now, with the addition of the new Edmonds Community Centre and rumour has it a few more improvements to other sites, we stand out as a great place to enjoy first-class sporting events on first class facilities.

The green space, Burnaby Lake being a particular jewel. Our recycling program is also impressive, and I’m happy to see the city developing an Environmental Sustainability Strategy.

What makes Burnaby great? Our many recreational amenities including gorgeous parks and a decent network of bike paths.

When I became Officer-In-Charge of the Burnaby RCMP and a Burnaby resident, my family couldn’t wait to explore the city. What makes Burnaby

great for me are the people I’ve come to know and admire through my volunteer activities with the Rotarians and the amazing volunteers we have with us at Burnaby RCMP. My wife Debra and I also

enjoy visiting the city’s extraordinary parks like Deer Lake and taking part in the cultural recreational activities.

A steady stream of blues music plays throughout the day, and an assortment of old instruments and musical art adorn the walls of the cozy 25 seat restaurant.

Owner Calvin Lévesque prepares an assortment of BBQ meats daily with a homemade rub before smoking the items in-house.

The burger is a ground Angus steak patty prepared in-house daily, and served medium well. The 6oz. burger can be customized to a guest’s taste with add-ons such as: mushrooms, sautéed onions, banana peppers, a fried egg, and the go-to favourite, cheese and bacon.

We have a local government who supports Mother Gaia, as demonstrated by BCA’s objection to destruction of conservation lands by a corporation that only cares about profits, not the planet. Nothing makes me feel happier than knowing that as long as our

leaders care and have integrity, we are safe from harm. I trust more communities will follow suit.

One thing that makes Burnaby great is that many of our political leaders/representatives are so engaged in speaking about local concerns and taking whatever action they can (e.g. Kinder

Morgan pipeline) to represent our collective interests.

Fog, navigation blamed in Fraser groundingContainer ship was headed to Fraser Surrey DocksJeff NagelBlack Press

Fog and insufficient use of navigational aids are among the reasons a container ship briefly ran aground inside the mouth of the Fraser River earlier this year, according to the Transportation Safety Board.

The 220-metre Cap Blanche was carrying more than 800 containers from Tacoma and had just begun heading up the river to its destination, Fraser Surrey Docks, when it began to turn too quickly and grounded on a silty section of Steveston Bend.

There were no injuries or pollution reported and the crew was able to use thrusters and engine movements to refloat the vessel on the rising tide 30 minutes later.

Reduced visibility of 150 metres due to fog meant the pilot should have frequently cross-checked the vessel’s position and course using

multiple navigational aids, rather than just one, the federal report said.

The GPS position predictor that was used was less accurate than usual because it wasn’t connected to a high quality mobile antenna the pilot normally used, but did not bring that trip.

“If a navigator relies on a single piece of navigational equipment, there is a risk that potential errors or inaccuracies will go undetected,” the report found.

The report also notes silting of the lower Fraser River reduced the width of the navigable channel at Steveston Bend, something the pilot knew but did not tell the non-local crew, who might have helped spot trouble.

Another container ship had previously grounded at the

Fraser’s entrance in 2003.Independent Delta South

MLA Vicki Huntington called Thursday for the province to lead a long-term dredging plan for the lower Fraser.

“This economic engine is dependent on continued, safe navigation. And safe navigation is absolutely dependent on dredging,” she said.

The provincial and federal governments previously provided $10 million in 2012 for one-time dredging of secondary channels, including Steveston and Ladner harbours.

But Huntington said more is needed to ensure the working harbours aren’t left high and dry.

“The value of the Fraser River to B.C.’s economy demands ongoing sediment control.”

No move afoot to regionalize police forces: AntonJeff NagelBlack Press

The B.C. government is readying a legislative hammer that could force holdout cities to join integrated regional policing units that investigate murders and other crimes across multiple jurisdictions.

A Police Act amendment tabled in the Legislature last week would empower the province to compel Metro Vancouver cities like Vancouver, Delta and West Vancouver to join and help fund the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) rather than use separate municipal homicide squads.

The move also follows the collapse of a regional crime unit in Greater Victoria, which, like the Lower Mainland, is policed by a patchwork of separate municipal police forces and RCMP detachments.

Justice Minister Suzanne Anton said no decisions have been made when asked if she intends to require universal participation in IHIT or other integrated units.

“IHIT is of interest to me,” she said, adding the legislation could also be used to revive the failed Victoria unit, from which several municipalities had withdrawn.

Anton stressed she wants to work with cities, not force change on them.

“It is a hammer but it’s not intended to be used as a hammer,” Anton said. “Most

of the time you want this to be done cooperatively, not by the minister requiring it.”

Delta Mayor Lois Jackson said her main concerns with compulsory IHIT membership would be the significant increased cost as well as the potential loss of top Delta Police investigators who would then spend most of their time working elsewhere in the region.

“We have to look at how many, how much, what it’s going to entail and are our best and brightest going to be leaving the community,” Jackson said. “We’re concerned about paying a great deal of money to have our officers in the service and not receive the benefit.”

Missing Women Inquiry Commissioner Wally Oppal in 2012 recommended the creation of a full regional police force, suggesting one would have caught serial killer Robert Pickton years earlier, saving the lives of some of his victims.

Oppal’s report warned further use of integrated teams would merely “prop up a broken system.”

But the province counters it has made significant changes to policing in response to the inquiry, including the launch this year of a new 24-hour Real Time Intelligence Centre that pools information and coordinates the response in the critical early hours of a fresh investigation.

Anton said she’s not looking at full police regionalization right now, but she is “very interested” in speaking to municipalities that are

voluntarily interested in amalgamating their police forces into a partial regional or sub-regional force.

The province’s main reform focus has been on expanding use of integrated teams to take advantage of specialized officers and equipment and ensure a coordinated response to crime that crosses municipal, provincial or international borders.

SFU criminologist Rob Gordon, an advocate of regional policing, said he doesn’t expect any dramatic move from the province to merge forces.

“Quite clearly the government at this point has no appetite for doing what Wally Oppal recommended they do in the two metropolitan areas and particularly in Metro Vancouver,” he said.

“So this inefficient and balkanized policing system we have will continue.”

Some municipalities, including Delta, willingly pay more than their neighbours to fund a larger force to provide no-call-too-small-policing and they fear they will end up paying disproportionately more into integrated teams.

“Should one community be subsidizing the other? I’m not so sure about that,” said Jackson.

IHIT is based in Surrey’s new E division headquarters with 105 staff, including 80 officers. Three municipal forces – Abbotsford, New Westminster and Port Moody – are part of IHIT.

[email protected]

Provincial hammer may force cities into IHIT

RCMP and ambulance attend a murder in Burnaby last month. The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) is responsible for investigating homicides, high-risk missing persons and suspicious deaths.

H LLOWEEN

October 31st is nearly here, and soon the streets will be filled with costumed revelers eager to get their share of the free-flowing candy and other prizes. Year after year, trick-or-treaters don their costumes and parade from home to home. But have you ever wondered where this and other traditions began?

WHErE did it aLL start?

Trick-or-treating and wearing costumes seem like odd traditions to those unaccustomed to Halloween. Halloween customs are actually a blend of Celtic, Catholic, Pagan, and ancient Roman traditions. It is thought that Halloween celebrations date back to roughly 800 to 600 BC, when they originally were observances of the harvest season and nature before the arrival of winter, which marked the barren state of the landscape. The Celtic festival of Samhain was a major influence on modern day Halloween.

POrtaL tO tHE uNdErWOrLd

On October 31, Celts also believed the door to the underworld was opened and could let in deceased spirits. Feasts were held and place-settings were left for deceased relatives, as they were believed to return home for a visit. In addition to friendly spirits, mean spirts also could cross over. Bonfires were lit to ward off spirits, and extra candles would be used in homes and churches to keep evil away.

CLOak Of safEty

Even the custom of wearing costumes has its roots in keeping evil spirits at bay. Costumes and masks were worn to confuse bad spirits and frighten them so that they could not bestow misfortune on the more fortunate. People also wore masks and ventured out after dark so that envious ghosts who were cold and outside could not recognize residents of warm and inviting homes.

a bLENd Of traditiONs

The trick-or-treating custom may have blended origins. Druids believed the dead would play tricks on mankind during Samhain, causing destruction and panic. To appease the spirits, people would give the dead food and other treats.

Another custom, called “souling,” can be linked to Halloween as well. Early Christians would walk from village to village asking for “soul cakes,” which were square pieces of bread with currants. The more cakes received, the more prayers the faithful would promise to say on behalf of the dead relatives of the cake donors to expedite a soul’s passage to heaven.

Irish trick-or-treating customs may be traced back to collecting supplies door-to-door for the festival of St. Columbkille.

Halloween revelry is full of traditions passed on through the ages.

The traditions of Halloween


By Tom FletcherBlack Press

Energy Minister Bill Bennett caused a stir at a conference on the Columbia River treaty with a speech calling for the U.S. government to pay more for the power and flood protection they receive.

Bennett was in Spokane last week to address the Columbia River Basin Transboundary Conference. In an interview after

his speech, he said it was the first time B.C. has laid out its expectations for the 50-year-old treaty.

“I didn’t get any discourteous responses from the audience, but I think there were definitely a few people who were a bit shocked,” Bennett said. “I think there are a lot of folks here in the U.S. who think that the $150 million we get is more than what we should get each year, and I said I don’t think

it’s nearly enough.”The annual payment represents

half the value of electricity generated downstream of dams on the Columbia River. After the treaty took effect in 1964, BC Hydro constructed the Mica, Duncan and Hugh Keenleyside dams on the Columbia system, with the help of a $275 million payment from the U.S. government.

The treaty was reached by

Prime Minister John Diefenbaker and U.S. President Dwight Eisenhower after devastating floods in 1948 that destroyed the community of Vanport, Ore. On the B.C. side, the flood left most of the lower part of Trail B.C. underwater and destroyed crops at Creston.

Bennett said both the cost of the dams to B.C. farmland and wetlands, and the value of flood control to the U.S., are not well

recognized south of the border.“The people on our side of the

border really want us to get some more resources to enhance fish and wildlife and agriculture in Canada,” he said.

The treaty has no expiry date, but contains a provision that either side can give 10 years’ notice to cancel it. B.C. announced last March that it wants to continue the treaty and discuss the terms.

Pay more for Columbia River, says Bennett

• Tankers are held to strict, internationally accepted construction and operating standards.• Any vessel proposing to visit Westridge must go through pre-screening and physical inspection.• Only double hulled tankers of modern design are accepted.• The Canadian Coast Guard monitors every vessel’s passage.• All employees are trained in operations, safety and emergency response procedures.• All vessels have a boom enclosure throughout loading operations.• Two local pilots are on board loaded tankers during every movement.• Tug escorts are required to accompany all laden tankers.• Dedicated local marine-based spill response organization, WCMRC, ensures quick action

in the event of a spill.• Marine spill response will be enhanced.

Trans Mountain has been operating at Westridge Terminal for six decades without a single spill from tanker operations, due in part to the stringent precautions we put in place. Close collaboration between Pilotage Authorities, Transport Canada, the Canadian Coast Guard and Port Metro Vancouver ensures vessels navigate our waters safely, guided by highly qualified local pilots.

“We’ve been loading tankers safely here for sixty years.”
