KPU inks deal with pipeline firm for $300,000Latest benefit agreement from Trans MountainJeff [email protected]
Kwantlen Polytechnic University academic vice-president Salvador Ferreras said he had no ethical qualms about signing a benefits agreement with Kinder Morgan that will bring $300,000 to the institution over 20 years if the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion is approved.
“None at all,” he said, adding the decision was about putting the interests of students first. “We as a university do not have a position on the Trans Mountain pipeline at all.”
The agreement unveiled June 23 at KPU’s Langley campus is the latest in Trans Mountain’s efforts to conclude benefit deals with local cities and post-secondary institutions in the name of delivering “legacies” with the project, but also demonstrating local support.
Each new deal adds more local projects and funding that hinge on whether the new pipeline is ultimately approved.
The $300,000 earmarked for Kwantlen consists mainly of scholarships and bursaries for KPU trades and technology students, and to help fund KPU’s Environmental Protection Technology lab, which the company may gain naming rights over.
Fortius added to Team Canada’s successIan [email protected]
Team Canada is a “team” in every sense of the word.
In the years leading up to the Women’s World Cup, it has taken a team of support staff off the pitch to ensure that the women’s national soccer team could be a success on the pitch. And some of that team success off the pitch is due to the staff at Burnaby’s Fortius Sport & Health.
The one-of-a-kind training facility in Canada, which opened up two and a half years ago, is a success story in many ways and no bigger success story than with its partnership with Soccer Canada.
“We have the perfect environment for a
team like Team Canada. We have everything under one roof: from the sports medicine section, the training centre, the lodge, which is huge so the whole team can stay here, the meeting and food facilities, the soccer pitch, so everything is here for them,” said Iris Klein online & social media marketing specialist.
Sports medicine physician Tim Doty, physiotherapist Mike Foster and strength coach Sarah Foster have all been working with Team Canada for the past few years.
They all are thrilled to be a part of the teams’ success and want to share that success with other athletes from the elite to the regular weekend warrior.
“You can certainly say this is their [Team Canada’s] home away from home when they
are together as a team,” said Doty, “and it is very exciting to be a part of that team.”
The credentials of the three support staff is impressive.
Doty was part of the medical team at the Vancouver 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games, serving as the manager of medical services for BC Place. He has provided medical coverage for Western Hockey League players and high altitude climbers.
Foster is an experienced physiotherapist who has spent the last 13 years working with the general public and athletes of all levels, and has worked with the Burnaby Fury and Burnaby Canadians soccer clubs, as well as the Douglas College men’s basketball team.
Burnaby hosts youth rugby provincials.

“We see this as an added opportunity for those students,” Ferreras said. “Our environmental protection technology students would be working on these types of projects anyway. This is one of their career paths. We feel we should be giving the opportunity to those students who need those chances.”
He said KPU is willing to organize a formal dialogue about the issue if students or faculty are upset about the agreement.
Trans Mountain project officials said the KPU money is primarily a benefits legacy, but add it’s conceivable some students benefitting from scholarships could go through a program there in time to work on the project.
Kinder Morgan spokesperson Lizette Parsons Bell defended the KPU partnership when asked if it could be seen as co-opting the school or its students.
She noted Trans Mountain has worked with UBC’s engineering department for more than 15 years.
“Businesses have partnered with educational institutions for probably as long as educational institutions have been around,” Parsons Bell said.
“It’s just another way to provide legacies for those communities in which you operate.”
Thompson Rivers
University also signed an agreement in April for $500,000 in contributions.
Parsons Bell confirmed Trans Mountain has had “conversations” with officials at the University of the Fraser Valley and Simon Fraser University, but could not provide the status of any talks.
Talks are also underway and in varying degrees of progress with Lower Mainland cities along the pipeline route — Chilliwack, Abbotsford, Langley Township, Surrey and Coquitlam — with the exception of Burnaby, which has refused to talk to the company.
The most advanced
was Chilliwack, where city council last month voted to defer signing off on a deal that would have seen Trans Mountain contribute $800,000 for a pedestrian walkway. Council there now intends to wait for a final recommendation on the pipeline twinning from the National Energy Board.
Critics had argued that offer had the appearance of a “bribe” because Chilliwack had not yet filed its comments on the project to the NEB.
Kinder Morgan has benefit deals worth $5 million with 18 other municipalities along the pipeline route from Hope
to northern Alberta. Money promised would go to various local improvements, such as parks, trails and water system upgrades.
The agreements are all contingent on the project getting NEB approval.
Parsons Bell denied the company is pressing for early agreements to help neuter public opposition to the pipeline as the NEB process nears the oral hearing stage.
She said doing deals early helps the company plan and potentially arrange to have pipeline project workers do the local improvements while they’re in the area.
University’s agreement called ‘tacit endorsement’ Jeff [email protected]
Student leaders have condemned Kwantlen Polytechnic University’s decision to accept a $300,000 contribution over 20 years from Kinder Morgan if its Trans Mountain pipeline twinning proceeds.
The Kwantlen Student Association said it opposes the agreement that would see the pipeline company give about $15,000 a year in scholarships for trades and technology students.
“KPU’s acceptance of this money amounts to a tacit endorsement of the pipeline project,” said KSA vice-president Alex McGowan, adding the pipeline poses “unacceptable risks” and would contribute to the accleration of climate change.
Students say they weren’t consulted and the move makes a mockery of the university’s commitment to sustainability and the aboriginal group for which it is named.
“KPU students want nothing to do with this project,” added KSA president Allison Gonzalez. “We are shocked at this agreement.”
KPU academic vice-president Salvador Ferreras said June 23 the money would aid students pursuing jobs in industry and said he had no ethical qualms about the agreement, insisting KPU wasn’t taking a position on the pipeline.
Alumni are also speaking out.“I have never been so embarrassed to be a Kwantlen
grad,” said Justine Nelson.“Many consider this type of ‘generosity’ to be a bribe,”
she said. “While the university states it has no stance on the pipeline, it has a duty to consider the effects this expansion will have, and not succumb to Kinder Morgan’s attempts to buy support of local communities.”
The Kwantlen First Nation, KPU’s namesake, is an intervenor before the National Energy Board opposing the pipeline expansion.
Spokesman Brandon Gabriel Kwelexwecten said the deal “flies in the face” of KPU pledges to closely collaborate with the First Nation.
Trans Mountain is pursuing benefits agreements with various municipalities and post-secondary institutions. So far Thompson Rivers University is the only other school to have accepted one.
All the benefits agreements are contingent on the pipeline being approved.

Family and friends walk in memory of slain teenVince ShuleyWhistler Question
As around 80 people bowed their heads in Rebagliati Park on Saturday (June 20) during a minute of silence, the only sound was the distant rush of the Fitzsimmons River.
Following speeches from friends and family members of slain 19-year-old Burnaby resident Luka Gordic and touching songs sung by Frankie Cena, 19 white balloons were released into the air, one for every year that Gordic lived.
Those in attendance all wore black T-shirts emblazoned with the date “5/17/15” on the back, the date the teenager was killed on Main Street in the Village. Four people have been charged with manslaughter in his death, including three 17-year-olds and 18-year-old Arvin Golic.
The vigil was held on the same day that Gordic and his family were going to take part in Tough Mudder under the team name “Family Matters.” On Saturday, his family did so under the new banner, #JusticeforLuka.
“Luka was the heart of our family and it pains us that we aren’t able to compete with him,” said Gordic’s sister, Danica. “We want people to be aware of the flaws in our justice system, not only so Luka may receive justice, but also so no family should endure the pain that we are going through. It is not right and something needs to change.”
Change was a sentiment that was echoed by Gordic’s uncle Gianni Buono.
“This afternoon we pray for Luka, but we also stand together to create awareness and change against senseless violence,” he said. “We’ll use the inspiration from Luka to make the world a better place and do that by communicating our message against violence.”
Gordic’s parents were unable to attend the vigil — just a few hundred metres away from where Gordic lost his life — for them it was much too close to
the tragedy. Danica read a message from her parents to the crowd.
“We are truly suffering as we mourn the loss of our beautiful boy,” she read, fighting back tears. “Waking each day brings new waves of grief and we cannot describe how badly losing Luka has broken our family’s hearts. We are tormented by his painful
death and shed unbearable tears at the thought of our sweet boy suffering. Luka was a loving person that brightened our lives. We now pray for Luka’s soul and that no family should have to endure the pain that we now feel. No person or family deserves such a fate.”
Surrounding the vigil table with Gordic’s photo
and lit candles, printouts of social media posts covered the picnic tables, all from friends and family members sharing their special moments and photos of Luka.
“So many tears have fallen,” wrote family friend Ognjen Miskovic. “Watching the Serbian/Italian Community in pain just shows me how
much you were loved and respected. No justice will ever be enough for any of us. Until we all meet again.”
Buono made his call to action clear during his speech, not just calling for change in the justice system, but also for Whistler’s management of the May long weekend.
“It’s (the Gordics’) hope
that we can positively influence our community to change our laws in order to ensure safety and protection of all people, to make sure what happened to Luka in Whistler does not happen again,” he said.
The vigil ended with a walk by friends and family members from Rebagliati Park to the site of Luka’s death in Whistler Village.

Manson is a leader in athlete development and strength and conditioning in Canada. She worked with the New Zealand national women’s football program and has worked with a wide range of athletes from all sports and levels, including both National Hockey League and Super League rugby players. She played soccer at the collegiate level herself.
“It’s very exciting to work with any athlete, but especially these players for the past two years,” said Foster. “This team is such a great group of people and it’s really gratifying to be a part of that success.”
“Working with elite athletes is very challenging, but very rewarding,” added Manson. “To know that you have played a role in creating an environment for that success is exciting and to see the results is gratifying.”
And to see where the team has come from in the past two years is something Doty is very proud to be a part of.
“It is fantastic to be connected with the team and the program and to see the changes throughout the past two years,” he said. “It’s been nice to work with them at this facility and see the team progress to where they are now is definitely something special to be a part of.”
Klein said the partnership with Team Canada has been amazing.
“Many people don’t realize that they can come to Fortius and have access to all of these services. People just don’t expect it because it’s new, right?” she said. “We are absolutely catering to the elite athlete like a Team Canada, but at the same time, any individual member of the public or team can take advantage of what we offer. We are trying to be more active and involved in all aspects of the community in philanthropic ways too, giving back to youth and minor sports.
“The possibilities are endless.”

Capt. Tarra Heiland has come a long way since her days as a teenaged clarinetist.
She first learned about the air cadets at age 14 when classmates in the band program at what was then Moscrop junior high told her about the marching band at 513 Hornet Squadron in New Westminster.
Hooked by the challenge of marching in drill formations while playing her clarinet, she signed up.
Now, at age 36, Heiland has reached the rank of captain and recently became the first female commanding officer for 637 Arrow Squadron in South Burnaby, the first in its 58-year history.
“To know I was going to be the first female is an absolute honour,” said Heiland, who works in the NewsLeader’s circulation department. “It was just such a feeling of pride. As a 14-year-old girl you never think this is where you’re going to be.”
The North Burnaby resident hopes that her being in the position will serve to inspire other female cadets.
“I want to be a good role model to show
anybody can do anything.”Heiland said she left the air cadets at
age 19, but soon missed being involved so returned as a volunteer a couple years later. She is now a member of the air reserves in the Canadian Armed Forces.
The cadets have been such a significant part of her life, and so many officers gave their expertise and time to her that she wanted to give back as well, she said.
Air cadets are open to kids aged 12 to their 19th birthday. Some join to learn how to become a pilot or as a precursor to joining the air force, while others simply want to learn leadership skills, self-discipline, citizenship, self respect and respect for others, she said, adding she’s gained lifelong friendships from the experience.
Based out of Nelson elementary, 637 Arrow now has about 200 members, up from about 110 in 2011. Its Thursday night meetings now pack the school’s gym, she said.
It will be hosting an open house on Sept. 10 at the school, from 6:30 to 9 p.m., for anyone interested in joining.

South Burnaby air cadets welcome first female CO
DEREK TAM/CONTRIBUTEDCapt. Tarra Heiland receives the 637 Arrow Squadron banner as its incoming commanding officer from Maj. Tim Alguire. She is the South Burnaby air cadet squadron’s first female CO in its 58 year history.
A beautiful day to celebrate a successful year, for the 637 Arrow Squadron of the Royal Canadian Air Cadets.
Recently, the squadron held its 58th annual ceremonial review
at Bill Copeland Arena. The air cadets use this ceremony, to show off all their hard work during training through the year.
This year the reviewing officer was Chief Superintendent Dave
Critchley, officer in charge of the Burnaby RCMP detachment. There watching along with other dignitaries, such as Burnaby Coun. Anne Kang, were cadets’ family and friends. They saw
dynamic displays of the 637 marching band, precision drill (marching) team, athletics and effective speaking — many of these teams placing very well on the podiums of their respective
regional competitions.Along with this year’s training,
a record number of scholarships were awarded to many deserving cadets for various courses across the country.

Mall to contribute $10K to Burnaby Neighbourhood House for volunteer effortsWanda [email protected]
Visitors to Metropolis at Metrotown mall can take a break from their shopping this summer in an updated and interactive hall of mirrors.
Called the “lightroom,” those who partake won’t have to worry about bumping their heads on mirrors that go on forever. Instead, they’ll enjoy twinkling lights and be immersed, literally, in their own social media feeds.
The lightroom experience is free and open until Sept. 7 from 12 to 7 p.m. at the mall’s lower level grand court.
It was inspired by Delta Airlines’ Social Soul art installation at the 2014 TED Conference, said Metropolis spokesperson Sarah Wong. She added that Metropolis has a large social media following so the project was designed as something that might appeal to those customers.
“We really liked the idea
of creating a digital event for our tech-savvy, social media-savvy customers.”
The project drew elements from art installations around the world and was custom-built for Metropolis by Burnaby-based design and decor firm BLD Design.
“It’s a combination of a digital and interactive installation,” said Wong. “Customers can walk through the experience, 60 seconds in total, and they’ll be exposed to the illusion of thousands of twinkling lights as well as photos from their social media feed.”
Visitors input their own Twitter or Instagram handle before entering the room and photos they’ve uploaded on those accounts will appear inside with them during their one-minute stint.
“You’ll be surrounded by photos of your digital media self,” Wong said.
She noted that if a visitor doesn’t have a social media account of their own they could enter someone else’s handle, from the mall to a celebrity or brand. People can experience it more than once and input
different accounts to create a different experience each time.
Anyone who takes photos while inside can also upload them to Twitter or Instagram, tagged with #METlightroom, to be entered to win prizes including gift cards, VIP tickets to the Celebration of Light fireworks, and the grand prize, a $1,000-shopping spree.
And there’s also a charity aspect. Burnaby Neighbourhood House will provide volunteers to staff the event. In exchange, the mall will donate $10,000 to the local non-profit group from its Metropolis at Metrotown Community Investment Fund.

Charges have been laid against a Burnaby man and a Delta man in connection with a robbery at a New Westminster cell phone store.
Landon Richard Savard, 32 of Burnaby, and Tyler Tonino Ciampelletti, 22 of Delta have both been charged with one count of robbery and one count of using an imitation firearm while committing or attempting to commit an indictable offence.
Ciampelletti has been released from custody and is currently bound by several court-imposed conditions while Savard remains in custody awaiting his next court appearance on July 6.
According to New Westminster Police (NWPD), on June 20 at approximately 5:40 p.m., a lone male suspect entered the Wind Mobile Store in the 900-block of 12th Street and displayed what appeared to be the handle of a handgun to the store employee.
The male demanded the store safe be opened. However he was not interested in money, but wanted the cellular phones inside the safe.
Once the male, who was later found to have an accomplice watching out for him during the robbery, was able to empty the safe he departed the store and the two suspects fled in a nearby vehicle.
The NWPD Major Crime Unit assumed conduct of the investigation and with the assistance of several units within the NWPD arrested the two suspects.
Metrotown stabbing
A man is recovering in hospital after a stabbing inside Metropolis at Metrotown mall Saturday afternoon.
The incident happened at 5:30 p.m. in the 4700-block Kingsway “during an altercation,” said Burnaby RCMP by email.
Media reports say it took place outside the Build-a-Bear store.
The victim, of no fixed address, was taken to hospital with what were believed to be non-life-threatening injuries. He is not cooperating with police.
One suspect, a
Vancouver resident, was taken into custody but later released without charges. Police continue to look for a second suspect.
All males involved are known to police and the incident is “not believed to be random,” say Burnaby RCMP.
Tire thief nabbedAn alleged prolific
offender has been charged with numerous criminal code offences in Burnaby.
Burnaby RCMP had received a series of break and enter reports from a local tire retailer located on Edmonds Street. The complainant believed that his shop was broken into at least seven times in the past month by the same suspect, with approximately 80 tires
stolen. An investigation was
started and the suspect was identified through surveillance video captured at the tire shop during the times of the break-ins.
On June 19, after gathering relevant evidence, officers of Burnaby RCMP’s Prolific Offender Suppression Team (POST) conducted a search warrant
on the suspect’s residence. The tires were not located however other evidence to support the charges were found inside the residence.
Charged is Peter Valenti, a 39-year-old resident of Burnaby, with four counts of break and enter and multiple counts of breach of recognizance. Valenti is scheduled to appear in provincial court on June
30.“The management of
prolific offenders has resulted in a marked reduction in criminal activity throughout the City of Burnaby,” said Cpl. Daniela Panesar, spokesperson for the Burnaby RCMP. “Often it is just a few people who are responsible for the majority of the crimes.”

Smashing cars every which way to save lives
‘‘It’s quite a show to witness up close, but this is not entertainment; the various impact tests the IIHS run are designed to save lives.’’Keith Morgan
Ruckersville, Virginia: Crash, bang, wallop and the crash test is all over in a shorter time than it takes to say those first words aloud.And you would have to speak loudly to be heard over the loud bang and sounds of shattering glass that echo around the cavernous building used to test the crash worthiness of dozens of vehicles annually by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. It’s quite a show to witness up close but this is not entertainment, the various impact tests the IIHS run are designed to save lives. And, should you be tempted to smile, an inspection of the smashed vehicle will soon wipe it from your face.Prior to the test smash, a group of Canadian journalists spent a couple of hours touring the facility, eyeing many mangled wrecks, which, reassuringly, looked less wrecked the closer we got to later models. Clearly, their designers had learned some good lessons from the kind of thudding impact we witnessed. Car safety design has come a long way in the past 50-plus years and we were reminded of that as we entered the lobby. There was displayed a frighteningly crumpled 1959 Chevy Bel Air: nobody would have walked away from that smash in one piece.By the time we reached the viewing gantry above the test track, we were ready to witness, the ‘small overlap frontal test’, which simulates the impact of a car’s
front corner colliding with another car or utility pole. The lights began to shine brightly and we heard the rumble of the car as it launched along the 180-metre guide track. As the driver’s side of the car hit the one-metre high barrier, the dummy driving may just have noticed the spee-do was hovering at 65 km/h. (Shouldn’t have taken his eyes off the road.)All was captured on high-definition cameras from every angle and before we were released to amble over to inspect the damage, technicians armed with laptops downloaded all the crash data stored by sensors in and on the car. On impact, the car had spun off almost three metres to the right, rotating before it came to a halt it what might have been a sidewalk in real life. Hope there was no pedestrian in its path. At
the end of the day, the car manufacturer representa-tives would walk away with a DVD loaded with data and images to be followed by a detailed examination some weeks later.It’s over so quickly it’s hard for the casual observer to learn much but a slow motion video made for chilling viewing as you see the $250,000 dummy driver (some cost up to $600,000) flailing while hitting the airbag. Every habitual red-light runner should be forced to take in this horror movie.The IIHS, which began in 1959, is a U.S. non-profit
organization funded by auto insurers. The goal is to reduce injuries and fatalities (on U.S. roads and highways), but its powerful research has an impact worldwide, no pun intended.The tour was truly a revelation and demonstrated well how most of today’s cars come through rigorous impact tests with good marks and those that don’t soon get a fix. We were hosted by Subaru Canada, which has much to boast about, though it was re-strained in blowing its own trumpet on location.All Subaru models have been named IIHS “Top Safety Picks” for six years running. And that’s some feat: to qualify as a 2015 Top Safety Pick, a vehicle must earn ‘good’ ratings in the moderate overlap front, side, roof strength and head restraint tests, as well as a ‘good’ or ‘acceptable’ rating in the small overlap front test.Subaru is excited that its optional ‘Eyesight’ system has earned the top IIHS rating of Superior for front crash protection. According to Subaru Canada, the company expects the percentage of buyers opting for Eyesight to increase from the current 19 per cent to 30 per cent by the end of the 2016 model year. The Eyesight system detects obstacles and is capable of bringing a vehicle to a complete stop at speeds up to 50 km/h.By the way, for those concerned about crash test dummy cruelty, Raul Arbelaez, vice president of operations for the IIHS, says: “Our dummies aren’t getting as hurt as much they used to. We don’t have to replace as many rib cages anymore.”

#throwbackthursday
MARIO BARTEL/NEWSLEADER FILEIt didn’t take long for the multinational imaging company Eastman-Kodak to puts its mark on one of Burnaby’s oldest high-tech companies, Creo Inc., which supplied prepress and workflow systems for the printing industry since it was founded in 1993. Just a week after acquiring Creo in June, 2005 Kodak was putting up its signage at Creo’s headquarters on Gilmore Way.But there was some trepidation about the change of ownership.“When there’s change coming, people are a little bit nervous about what’s ahead,” said Rochelle van Halm of Creo.Kodak’s famous logo was discontinued in 2006. And the company filed for bankruptcy protection in the United States in 2012.

MARIO BARTEL/NEWSLEADERA Vancouver Island North ball carrier tries to escape the clutches of Fraser Valley East tacklers in the second half of their U-14 boys match at the youth Provincial Regional rugby championships, Saturday at Burnaby Lake Fields. Fraser Valley East won the match 28-5 and went on to win their division. The tournament featured teams from five regions around the province competing in three age categories for the boys and a U-16 category for girls. The championships conclude this weekend with U-17 and U-18 teams competing at Burnaby Lake.

The Burnaby Winter Club keeps churning out top NHL prospects.
The latest is Mathew Barzal, who was selected 16th overall by the New York Islanders in Friday’s NHL entry draft.
Barzal, who’s from Coquitlam, scored 153 points in 53 games for the Winter Club’s major bantam team in 2012 before being selected first overall by the Seattle Thunderbirds in the WHL bantam draft.
That’s the same arc taken by another recent Winter Club grad, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, who was also a top pick in the WHL bantam draft before he became the first player selected in the 2011 NHL entry draft.
Barzal, a centre, scored 26 goals and added 85 assists in two seasons with the Thunderbirds.
Barzal had been ranked as high as seventh among prospects eligible for this year’s entry draft, and was once touted to be just behind top overall pick Connor McDavid. But he missed almost a third of last season after he injured his knee horsing around in the locker room.
The first Burnaby-born player selected in the draft was Adam Helewka who went to the San Jose Sharks in the fourth round, 106th overall. Helewka, a left
winger, scored 87 points in 69 games in his third season with the Spokane Chiefs of the Western Hockey League.
Helewka may even have some hometown company at the Sharks’ prospects camp as San Jose selected another Burnaby boy, Marcus Vela of the BCHL Langley Rivermen, in the seventh round, 190th overall. Vela is headed to the University of New Hampshire this fall.
Barzal goes to Islanders in NHL draft
