Citation preview
It was nearing midnightMonday, and with a racetoo close to call in BurnabySouth, supporters at Ken-nedy Stewarts campaignoffice were given some in-centive to stick it out a littlelonger.They were offered a
round of drinks on thehouse.While the announcement
elicited cheers, there was amuch bigger applause in theroom about half an hour lat-er when the NDP candidateclaimed victory.Stewart was re-elected for
a second term after narrow-ly defeating his closest chal-lenger, Liberal Adam Pan-
kratz, by only a few hundredvotes.When the dust settled,
the NDP incumbent heldon for the win, picking up16,094 votes compared to15,547 for the Liberal.The margin of victory
for Stewart was just 1.2 percent.Its always close, Stew-
art said, noting it was a sim-
ilar situation when he waselected for the first time in2011 in Burnaby-Douglas.When asked what put
him over the top, he cred-ited the people who workedon his campaign.When you lose its
because of you, but whenyou win its because of yourteam, he said.While Stewart held on,
the national results were anear disaster for the NDP.The party won just 44
seats in Ottawa.
Canadians clearly want-ed change, and they got it,and thats what happened.We (the NDP) just didnthappen to be that change,he said.Stewart said there is a lot
the NDP can work withwith the Liberal party plat-form, but suggested therewere problems with it, too,

and his party will be hold-ing the new government toaccount.Im sure the Conserva-
tives will be in complete dis-array, so it will be up to usto be a force there in Otta-wa, he said.Just a five-minute drive
away at his campaign officeon Kingsway, Pankratz wasreflecting on the close loss.He was thrilled with the re-sults of the party nationally,suggesting people respond-ed to the positive messageand campaign. Pankratzsaid he was also proud of hisown effort locally.We did incredibly well.
Nobody gave us a chance inthe riding and we showedwe definitely could havewon, he said, also credit-ing the NDP for running agood campaign.Even though the early re-
sults fromMonday nighthad the Liberal in the leadwith a few hundred votes,he said he never thought hehad a win in the bag.As for his future, the
32-year-old isnt ruling outthe possibility of staying inpolitics.For me its been a great
experience.When or whatthe future holds, I dontknow, Pankratz said.It was a similar sentiment
from Conservative candi-date Grace Seear, who fin-ished third with 12,441votes, or 27 per cent.The Conservative-staffer-
turned-candidate said shewas surprised by the nation-al results, adding she feelssad about outgoing PrimeMinister Stephen Harpersown fortunes on electionnight more so than her own.Seear also congratulated
Stewart on his victory andthanked her own team fortheir work on the campaign.I hope they understand
its not their defeat, shesaid, adding she has time toconsider her own politicalfuture.
Seear said when she wasdoor knocking earlier in thecampaign, she didnt get a
sense the Liberals wouldprovide as much competi-tion.
I think they (voters)were looking for change,she said.Rounding out the elec-
tion results were the GreensWyattTessari, who received1,306 votes, and the Liber-tarian candidate Liz Jalu-ague, who netted 498 votes.As for voter turnout
in the realigned Burna-by South riding, a total of45,886 people voted out ofthe 75,263 registered elec-tors.That was good for a 61
per cent voter turnout, butbelow the national averageof 68.5 per cent.
The wave of Liberal sup-port that swept the countryMonday night has loosenedthe NDPs grip on Burnaby,but local Burnaby CitizensAssociation members arejust happy Stephen Harperis gone.We felt the early, early
prediction of New Demo-crats doing well across thecountry wasnt going tohold, but I certainly wasntprepared for the way theLiberals swept the county,
said Burnaby city councillorSav Dhaliwal.I had expected it would
be a Liberal governmentbut a minority governmentand New Democrats wouldhave a chance to work withthem, he said. It wasnta rejection of the NDP asmuch. I think it was a rejec-tion of the Harper agenda,and the Liberals were bene-ficiaries of that.The Burnaby Citizens
Association holds all ofBurnabys city council andschool board seats, and themembers are all New Dem-
ocrats.Dhaliwal said the NDP
lost some ground, as Burn-aby South almost went tothe Liberals, and he was ex-pecting North Burnaby-Seymour to be between theConservatives and NDP, asKennedy Stewart won theformer Burnaby-Douglasriding in 2011 but also ona thin margin.The ridingchanges that created Burn-aby North-Seymour addeda piece of the right-leaningNorth Shore to Burnaby,something Dhaliwal saidwas a game-changer.
School board chair RonBurton echoed Dhaliwalssentiments; he did not ex-pect Burnaby South to beso close. (Stewart hung onby just 1.2 per cent in a nail-biting race with polls com-ing in close to midnight.)I was surprised that
Kennedy Stewart bare-ly held on, and I think hellconsolidate it over the nextcouple of terms.He foughta big red wave that was hap-pening. I think people want-ed Harper (out), he said.Burton, who was expect-
ing aTory victory in Burn-
aby North-Seymour, wassurprised the Liberals tookthe riding, which he attrib-uted to JustinTrudeauscampaign.He did a tremendous
job, Burton said, citing oneparticularTrudeau ad as thebest hes ever seen in poli-tics. I felt like going outvoting for him after that,and everyone Ive talked tosaid that was just an incred-ible ad.According to Burton, the
NDPmisstepped with itscore values by promoting abalanced budget.
It puts us in the samefield as Harper.We had todifferentiate ourselves fromthe Conservatives, and toomany of our promises weredown the road, he said.Burton didnt think Mon-
day nights results willchange Burnaby that much.I thinkTerry Beech will
be a good representative. Ihavent heard anything tothe contrary about it, andof course Kennedy Stew-art and Peter Julian will begood representatives, hesaid. The big victory is thatHarpers gone.

Despite glum results forBurnabys Green party can-didates, cheers still rang outthrough the Admiral PubonMonday night as a groupgathered to watch the elec-tion results come in.Of Burnabys three fed-
eral ridings, only Burna-by North-Seymours Greencandidate Lynne Quarm-by was able to secure morethan five per cent of thevotes.Quarmby was calm and
collected as she entered theAdmiral Pub.Her support-ers cheered and applaud-ed the SFU professor, wait-ing their turn to greet thefourth-place finisher.
To be honest, it was theworst-case scenario. I didntexpect it to be this bad, shetold theNOW when askedwhat she thought of the re-sults in Burnaby North-Seymour.I believed, when I set
out to do this, that I couldwin, and I still think that Icould have won, but the keything that was missing wasenough other people alsobelieving that I could win,she added. I think that ifenough other people couldhave believed, we might
have been able to make ithappen.When asked what she
thought went wrong, shesaid she and her fellowGreen candidates were hithard by strategic voting.Like other Green can-
didates in Burnaby rid-ings, Quarmby encoun-tered many people duringher campaign who told herthey wanted to vote Greenbut were too afraid to, fear-ing it would split the vote infavour of Conservative can-didate Mike Little.I tried to tell them that
if everybody who said thatactually voted Green, wewould do great, she said.But fear was too great in
the newly minted riding ofBurnaby North-Seymour,according to Quarmby.This election it was the
strategic voting to get rid ofHarper. I think people wereso afraid of Harper, thatthat dominated everything,she said.I think well do much
better next time, when wedont have that spectrehanging over us. I think thespectre of Harper is whatkilled us this time, she said.Whether that next time
includes first-time candi-date Quarmby, its too ear-ly to say.The SFU professor-
turned-activist and now po-litical candidate said it wasstill all too fresh.I think I had a big im-
pact at every debate, at ev-ery event. I think that was areally important thing, shesaid.Looking forward, howev-
er, Quarmby said shell bekeeping an eye on the new-ly-elected Liberal party, in-cluding successful BurnabyNorth-Seymour candidate
Terry Beech, who won with18,742 votes, according toElections Canadas pre-liminary results especial-ly when it comes to certainpromises regarding the en-vironment and the conten-tious pipeline review pro-cess.I feel that the Liberal
candidate in this riding rana really excellent campaign,and I would like to con-gratulate him. I think thathes a good guy, hes veryhardworking, he earned thewin, she said.
OTHERGREEN
CANDIDATES SUFFER
TOUGH LOSSES
Green party candidatesin Burnaby South and NewWestminster-Burnaby wereupbeat Monday in the faceof two tough defeats.In NewWestminster-
Burnaby, first-time candi-date Kyle Routledge fin-ished with a preliminaryresult of 4.9 per cent of thevotes or 2,559 cast in his fa-vour.WyattTessari, Green can-
didate in Burnaby South,meanwhile, secured 1,306
votes 2.8 per cent of thevote.I think the strategic vot-
ing worked beyond whatpeople expected, and in es-sence I think they missedtheir objective of going for aminority,Tessari said.Tessari echoed Burnaby
North-Seymour candidateLynne Quarmbys thoughtsthat the threat of anothergovernment led by StephenHarper was too much forvoters and so many choseto vote strategically, whichhurt the Greens greatly.But that doesnt mean its
the end for the Green Party.In fact, its more like the be-ginning,Tessari said.Its going to come, he
added.And Routledge couldnt
agree more.Even the biggest waves
start really small, and I thinka big wave is building and itmight take a few more elec-tions but the momentumis there, Routledge saidover the phone late Mon-day night.

DearMr.Trudeau:DontgetcockyDearMr.Trudeau:Well, that was an excit-
ing night.We have to thankyou for keeping it interest-ing for us all not just herein Burnaby but right acrossthe country.And we couldnt help but
watch with interest as youset out your vision for a new,positive, forward-looking fu-ture for our nation.We just want to make a
polite suggestion.Dont get cocky.We know, we know, you
managed to pull off a mir-acle, what with turning 36measly seats into a majoritygovernment.Not since that whole five
loaves and two fishes thinghas someone managed toparlay so little into so muchfor so many so quickly.But dont think for a sec-
ond that the victory was allabout you. It was about awhole lot of factors andthose factors werent allas pretty as your perfectlycoiffed hair.
It was about Canadiansbeing mad as heck at Ste-phen Harper and his Con-servative Partys divisivecampaign.It was about strategic vot-
ing and Canadians rally-ing around those they sawas the most likely candidatesto defeat those above-men-tioned Conservatives.It was about the fact that
you entered the campaignin third place and had reallynothing to lose by putting itall on the line unlike your
rival on the left,TomMul-cair, who clearly buckledunder the pressure of havingto prove he had the gravitasto govern the country.It was about the fact that
your campaign team wasclever at coming up withways to turn all the attackson you to best advantage.(If there is a person in thecountry who hasnt made atleast one nice hair joke inthe past couple of months,wed be surprised.)And, yes, it was about
you.You answered yourdoubters (and they were le-gion) by proving yourselfto be more shrewd,moresavvy and more solid thanmany gave you credit for and you managed to re-main likeable and upbeatthroughout.That was no mean feat,
and we congratulate you.Now we have one request:
Do it. Follow through onwhat youve promised us.Start with electoral re-
form.Dont let the fact that
you managed to pull off afirst-past-the-post miracledissuade you from realiz-ing that Canadians deservea better system that givesmore representation to allthe voices of this proud na-tion.And, step by step, lead us
forward into that future ofhope, optimism and positivecooperation youve prom-ised us.Were counting on you.
Please dont let us down.

A costly stunt for mom
Campaignsmatter,a lotWhenever Premier Chris-
ty Clark is asked to accountfor her surprising, come-from-behind victory in the2013 provincial election,she invariably replies cam-paigns matter.Its a view that is now no
doubt shared by the threemajor federal party lead-ers, who this week finishedan epic 11-week marathoncampaign themselves. Pub-lic opinion about the threeof them seemed to shift,swing and move remarkablyas the campaign wore on.Im filing this column
the day before the vote, so Ihave no idea which of themwon. But all indicationswere pointing to the Liber-als JustinTrudeau winningand the Conservatives Ste-phen Harper besting theNDPsTomMulcair whenit came to votes and seatswon.This, of course, is exactly
the opposite of the scenar-io marking the beginning ofthe campaign and shows thecampaign itself does indeedmatter a lot.The NDPs Mulcair, at
the start, was the man tobeat. Harper looked spent,andTrudeau was miles be-hind.All signs pointed to anhistoric NDP victory.And then people started
to pay attention.Thats another one of the
points Premier Clarks in-sisted was true when shewas being counted out ofit in the months before the2013 vote: People dontpay attention to politics un-til the campaign is well un-der way.Much of what passes
for political debate in thiscountry question period,talk shows, political pan-els is eagerly gobbled upby those with a keen inter-est in politics. But the ma-jority of folks do not fall intothat category and go out oftheir way to essentially ig-nore politics wheneverthey can.During an election cam-
paign, however, those peo-ple take out their earplugsand stop averting their eyes,and begin assessing things.And when they started do-ing that, public opinionseemed to shift: the Lib-erals popularity started togrow, and the NDPs beganto shrink.The Conserva-tives, meanwhile, were stuckin neutral for the most partsince the campaign began.Because expectations
were so low forTrudeau(and set so low, ironically,by the Conservatives hesnot readyTV ad cam-paign) he had the mostroom of the three to grow inpopularity, and he did justthat.As I mentioned, Im fil-
ing this before the votesare counted. But Ill wagerwhen they are, many folkswill come to the same con-clusion about one thing:campaigns matter, becausethats when voters reallystart paying attention.What seemed like reality
at the beginning turned outto be anything but, becausethe campaign itself deter-mined the election outcome not the warm-up gamepreceding it.Keith Baldrey is chief politi-
cal reporter for Global B.C.

Teaching has changed,and rightfully soDear EditorRe:Whydoweneed somanyteachers for todays classrooms? Letters to theeditor,Opinion, Oct. 9.Garth Evanshas fallen into theusual trap
of assuming that becauseheattended schoolhes developeda full understandingof thechallenges facing todays teacher. Is he alsoanexpert in anatomybecausehes visited theclinic?Theprovincial government claimsGrade 1
class sizes average 21.5 and this iswith oneteacher in charge.Maybe two teachers appearin the class photopublishedbecause they
eachworkpart-time. Ican assureyou there isno 10:1 stu-dent to staffratio.What other
differenceswere there in1956? Fewer
autistic children, childrenwith ADHD, childrenwhodont speakEnglish, children fromsingle-parent families, over-scheduled, anxiety-rid-den children, childrendamagedby cyberbul-lying, children addicted to their smart phonesandgameconsoles, sleep-deprived childrenstayingup late at nightwatching YouTube/socialmedia, and children luredby gangs andparty drugs. Childrenwerenot raisedonadietof genetically-modified food stuffedwith addi-tives andhormones.Children couldbepacked into classrooms
in 1956because corporal punishmentwas thenorm. Ask anyonewhowent to school in theolddays howmuchmisbehaviourwas toler-ated. Parents accepted corporal punishment theydidnt call thepolice. Theydidnt suethe school district. They also sidedwith theteacher if they reported cheating ormisbehav-iour theydidnt rush, lawyer-like, to defendtheir child.Neitherwere teachers required tomake
school fun, interesting andentertaining. In1956 childrenwere there tomemorize the in-formationpresented to themand later regur-gitate it. Nowadays teachersmust completewith aworld of selfies, likes, anda customerbase that demands instant gratification.Sitting in neat rowsand listening to the
teacher droneon is so1956.KeithMontgomery, teacherBurnabyNorthSecondary

Only one of Burnabysthree New Democrat MPshad an easy time of it onMonday night.NewWestminster-Burn-
aby MP Peter Julian easilyclinched a seat in the Houseof Commons as a red waveof Liberals swept to poweracross the country.Julian, who has served as
MP since 2004, was elect-ed as the member of Parlia-ment for the newly createdNewWestminster-Burnabyriding.While he was disappoint-
ed with the NDPs results atthe national level, he said hewas not entirely shocked.We certainly saw in the
last few weeks there was alot of push around the Lib-erals, he said. Certainlyon the doorstep it felt good,
things were very strong. Butpeople were making up theirminds at the last minute.NewWestminster MLA

Fireghters talksstallonarbitrator
[email protected] could be 2016 before Burnaby fire-
fighters get a new contract, and thats only
if the city and union can agree on an arbi-
trator.Its been nearly four months since the
City of Burnaby and the International Asso-
ciation of Firefighters Local 323, which rep-
resents 281 firefighters in Burnaby,met for
mediation, and since then there has been
minimal movement towards a new contract.
In fact, both parties are still trying to
agree on an arbitrator.
Its kind of hard to decide when they
keep throwing back the same name to us.
Weve offered four and they offered three,
and then we said no to the three and then
they offered one of the three back again to
us, said Rob Lamoureux, president of Lo-
cal 323.Lamoureux said the unions top choice is
well-known arbitratorVince Ready, who re-
cently negotiated a deal for firefighters in
Prince George, but because hes so in-de-
mand, its unlikely he would be available be-
fore the new year.Lambert Chu, deputy city manager and
liaison for the Burnaby Fire Department, is
hoping, however, to get the process moving
as soon as possible.Were trying to find an arbitrator that
has a fairly open schedule to allow us to get
a quick appointment so that the case can be
heard, Chu said.At this point, however, Lamoureux said
he and the firefighters are willing to wait for
the right arbitrator, especially since theyve
been waiting more than three years for a
new contract.Weve waited so long we want to make
sure we get the right arbitrator, Lamou-
reux said. I dont want to take our chances
and roll the dice with anybody.Another six
months, its no big deal now, were already
three years in.TheNOW asked Chu if anyone on coun-
cil or the mayor was trying to drag this pro-
cess out, considering how long its taken so
far, but he was adamant that council and
the mayor arent involved in the negotia-
tions.This is done right at the staff level.This
contract negotiation is carried out through
the city managers office and a representa-
tive from the fire union, and we basically
keep our council informed of the progress,
but the council isnt involved in any negoti-
ation, Chu said.Lamoureux doesnt buy that.
I would disagree. I cant believe that,
he said. I cant believe that this is being
controlled by the city managers office.
You look at common sense and you look
at whats gone on in the whole region.Were

Harper gone. JustinTrudeau developed somemomentum.Once peopledecide that that is the bestchance of defeating Harp-er, thats where they go,she said. The Stop Harp-er (vote) was very, verystrong.Julian concurs.I think Mr.Harper has
been such a divisive forcein our country that that be-came priority No. 1, hesaid. Mr.Trudeau must becongratulated for his victo-ry and then the question is,is he going to continue Mr.Harpers agenda, which heseemed to want to do in anumber of areas, or is he go-ing to make a clean break?Only time will tell.Julian said New Dem-
ocrats will be fighting tomake sure Canadians getreal change the vast ma-jority of people were look-ing for.I am very concerned
about the health-care sys-tem, he said. Mr.Harp-er has opened up a gap-ing hole $36 billion. Itstarts in about 14-and-a-half months.Mr.Trudeaudidnt seem to want to ad-dress that issue.We are talk-ing about a sizable guttingof the health-care budget. Iwas with my father last weekfor an emergency we hadto wait five hours before hecould get a painkiller.Thatsnot because the staff arentworking hard; they areworking incredibly hard. Itsbecause the cutbacks are al-
ready having an impact.Julian said hes worried
what the pending cuts tothe health care budget willmean to Burnaby and Roy-al Columbian hospitals, sothat will be an issue NewDemocrats will be champi-oning in the House of Com-mons.With polls showing the
NDP in the lead earlier inthe campaign,Mondayselection results were a blowto New Democrats, whowere reduced from theirhigh of 103 seats in 2011 tojust 44.I think we will proba-
bly spend a lot of time an-alyzing what happened inthis campaign, what wasdone right, what was donewrong,Darcy said. I thinkthe overriding factor is thatpeople wanted to get ridof Stephen Harper. Peoplewent with who they thoughthad the best chance of de-
feating Stephen Harper.Those sentiments were
echoed by NewWestminsterCoun. Jaimie McEvoy, whosaid the anti-Harper Par-ty won and consolidatedaround the Liberals. He saidthere is still a public percep-tion that the Liberals are thealternative government tothe Conservatives.The Anti-Harper Party
won, he said.As for Julian,McEvoy
said he does tremendousconstituency work.He is one of the hard-
est working people Iknow in politics, he said.Youll never find him sit-ting around during an elec-tion campaign.He knockson more doors than any-body. Nobody can keep upwith him. If I go knockingon doors with Peter Julian, Iknow I have to be fit and beready.

majority nationally with 184seats; the minimum theyneeded was 170.As for theTories cam-
paign, Little said the partystruggled part way throughand saw numbers drop, butthe Conservatives broughtforward new ideas andthose numbers picked upagain. He also tipped his hatto the Liberals, which hesaid ran a strong campaignby catching the energy andputting theTories on the de-fensive.When you are defend-
ing, you are losing, he saidfrom Seymours PubMon-day evening, as the numberswere starting to come in.Later that evening, Little
gave his concession speechand thanked those whostepped up and donated
money. Little said he wouldcall Beech to congratulatehim.But its a very hard day
for us because both nation-ally and locally weve suf-fered a big defeat here, hesaid.Baird Ellan declined a vis-
it from theNOW, as it waslate in the evening, but shedid grant a phone interview.The voters have spoken,
and I respect their decision,she said. I have calledTer-ry to congratulate him on a
campaign well run.Baird said there was a fair
amount of undecided votersin the riding and a stronganti-Harper sentiment, butshe was unsure if strategicvoting played a role in theLiberal shift.The other candidates
in the riding were all great.They fought a really hard(campaign), and I was hon-oured to be in their compa-ny, she said.We live to fight anoth-
er day, she added, but
when theNOW asked ifthat meant she would runagain, she replied, laugh-ing: Thats like asking awoman who just gave birthif she wants to have anoth-er baby.All I can say is Ivethoroughly enjoyed being inthe company of all the peo-ple I worked with on thiscampaign, and I hope to seemore of them.OnTuesday, Beech was
refusing interviews with ma-jor media outlets because hewanted to thank all his vol-unteers first, although hedid pick up the phone whentheNOW called to check in.Beech got his start in pol-
itics as a teenager and wasfirst elected as a Nanaimocity councillor at just 18years old.

Still looking for the per-fect Halloween costume?Byrne Creek Secondary
Schools drama departmenthas what you need and itwont cost you a fortune.Weve got everything
from Harry Potter to pi-rates, fairies, medieval,community theatre instruc-
tor Damon Jang told theNOW. Of course, peopledont have to be strict withthese kinds of things. If youwant to be a zombie-fairy-pirate, lets do it.The imagi-nation is really up to the pa-tron.For the second year in a
row, the theatre departmenthas opened up its costumeand props collection forHalloween revellers to rent
and purchase.Proceeds will go towards
the schools productions ofPeter Pan in December andCinderella in May.As a community school,
Jang said Byrne Creek alsohas a duty to keep its rent-al and purchase prices af-fordable.We want to try to help
the community by keepingprices low and ensure every-
one has a rocking Hallow-een regardless of their finan-cial situation, he said.The department took in
$700 from the initiative lastyear.This year, the tally is al-
ready up to about $600,thanks mostly to the de-partments big collection ofHarry Potter items, amassedduring its production ofHogwarts a couple years ago.
Organizers of a Har-ry Potter party at UBCsnapped up about $500worth of the props, cos-tumes and custom set piec-es, according to Jang.Anyone looking to rent
or buy from the ByrneCreek collection can vis-it the drama department atthe school (7777 18th St.)onTuesdays andThursdaysbetween 3 and 6 p.m.
Therell be racks of cos-tumes to look at, and iftheres nothing that you see,we can look at building acostume for you with piec-es, Jang said.For more information,
