Surrey North Delta Leader

A former fan of the heat of her home-town of Kamloops, and once a backyard hot tub enthusiast, Robin Burgess is not looking forward to summer.

For years, warm temperatures caused so much weakness in her legs, that her North Delta home now has separate air conditioners for the her bedroom, kitchen and basement.

“I know heat bothered me, but I didn’t know why.”

Prior to her diagnosis with multiple sclerosis in March 2012 at the age of 49, she thought she was just clumsy.

The new diagnosis explained the weak-ness, and also proved that her other strange symptom, numbness in her left arm, hand and � ngers, was not carpal tunnel syndrome.

“Things made sense and I was not just a klutz,” she says, recalling the days she would have trouble carrying a laundry basket or walking up the stairs.

She’s now much more aware of her environment and actions, such as count-

ing the seven steps in each of the two staircases in her home, doing spring and summer chores in the early morning or evening, consuming no aspartame or im-munity-boosting cold medicines, and tak-ing the new MS medicine she’s receiving in a double-blind study.

There are good days and not-so-good days, but the medicines seem to be help-ing, and her UBC medical support team and employers (Burnaby’s D.A. Townley and Associates, where she works full-time) offer her no end of positive support.

Several Metro Vancouver mayors are blasting what they say is the potentially disastrous election promise of the BC Liberals to put any new taxes or tolls for TransLink to a regional referendum.However, Delta Mayor Lois Jackson said she’s not sure a binding referen-dum on a complex question would be wise, but said Delta has successfully used non-binding referenda before to gauge voter support for some initia-tives.“I don’t think referendums should be poo-pooed necessarily because that is one way to get information from the public,” Jackson said.Metro Vancouver mayors have asked the province for new funding sources for TransLink including a vehicle levy, a share of carbon tax, a small regional sales tax or some form of road pricing.

Delta Council adopted bylaws and au-thorized the issuance of a development variance permit April 15, allowing for the construction of the proposed 37-storey mixed-use high rise on 80th Avenue in North Delta.The building will be the South Fraser’s tallest building west of Surrey’s City Centre. The mixed-use building will include 359 apartment, a four-storey commercial compo-nent with a maximum 2,304 sq. m. (24,800 sq. ft.) fl oor area.

Flipping a light switch. Plugging in a coffeemaker. Charging a laptop computer. These are second nature for most of us. Electricity makes our lives easier. However, we need to be cautious and keep safety in mind.


SAFETY TIPS KKK Have all electrical work done by a qualified electrician. KKK When you are buying or remodeling a home, have it inspected

by a qualified electrician.KKK Only plug one heat-producing appliance (such as a coffee maker,

toaster, space heater, etc.) into a receptacle outlet at a time. KKK Major appliances (refrigerators, dryers, washers, stoves, air

conditioners, etc.) should be plugged directly into a wall receptacle outlet. Extension cords and plug strips should not be used.

KKK Arc fault circuit interrupters (AFCIs) are a kind of circuit breaker that shuts off electricity when a dangerous condition occurs. Consider having them installed in your home. Use a qualified electrician.

KKK Use ground fault circuit interrupters (GFCIs) to reduce the risk of shock. GFCIs shut off an electrical circuit when it becomes a shock hazard. They should be installed inside the home in bathrooms, kitchens, garages and basements. All outdoor receptacles should be GFCI protected.

KKK Test AFCIs and GFCIs once a month to make sure they are working properly.

KKK Check electrical cords to make sure they are not running across doorways or under carpets. Extension cords are intended for temporary use. Have a qualified electrician add more receptacle outlets so you don’t have to use extension cords.

KKK Use light bulbs that match the recommended wattage on the lamp or fixture. There should be a sticker that indicates the maximum wattage light bulb to use.

IMPORTANT REMINDERCall a qualified electrician or your landlord if you have:• Frequent problems with blowing

fuses or tripping circuit breakers• A tingling feeling when you touch

an electrical appliance• Discolored or warm wall outlets• A burning or rubbery smell coming

from an appliance• Flickering or dimming lights• Sparks from an outlet

Recent changes to B.C. family law will help create a less adversarial and more constructive means to end a marriage or common law rela-tionship, according to a local divorce lawyer.

The Family Law Act was enacted last month, replacing the 33-year-old Family Relations Act with a process that Ladner lawyer Deirdre Se-veride says will keep families out of court, and cause less trauma.

Severide is the founder and principal law-yer at Sea Change Collaborative Practice, and works with couples to help them reach settle-ments outside of court, something the new act encourages.

"It's very clear to us the legislation is say-ing out-of-court dispute resolution is absolutely preferred," she said.

The provincial government began a review of the Family Relations Act in 2006. The old pro-cess forced couples to start and finish a divorce proceeding in court, something Severide says creates an unnecessarily adversarial situation and can tear families apart.

"I don't think families should be in the courts at all," she said. "There's too much at stake."

Lawyers are now required to make clients aware of the many alternative settlement op-tions - such as mediation - before moving ahead with court proceedings.

"This is a whole new approach to family reso-lution under the family law act," said Severide.

The change in the tone of language in the act is also significant, she noted. Instead of "joint custody" or "access," the Family Law Act speaks of "joint-guardianship" and "parental responsibilities."

B4 ❙ APRIL 2013 THE DELTA LEADER

She can drive, but can’t take the bus or SkyTrain be-cause the unpredictable vi-brations make her lose her balance. (She says in hot weather, her left foot feels like she’s wearing a “big clown shoe”).

Burgess says she’s lucky in the sense that she’s right-handed (MS affects her left hand) and that un-like many women, she was diagnosed and doesn’t have children – just two purring “fur kids” and a supportive husband.

“Better me than a young mom,” Burgess says of the debilitating disease of the nervous system.

She adds one other posi-tive, perhaps life-saving tan-gent to her story: The MRI scan that con� rmed her MS diagnosis also found a lump in her neck that was a tu-mour that might have been dangerous.

It was removed in a surgi-cal procedure in January.

Warmer weather means T-shirts, and Burgess will don a purple one on April 28 with her six-member Team

Bunditos at the Scotiabank MS Walk at Bear Creek Park.

She’s already passed her $500 fundraising goal, and has raised it to $1,500 – all for the MS Society’s ef-forts to � nd a cure for MS and provide services for it’s membership of 28,000 peo-ple across Canada.

The walk will involve 6,000 people across B.C.

“There’s got to be a rea-son some of us get it,” says Burgess. “But we just can’t � gure out why.”

The Scotiabank MS Walk takes place April 28 at 10 a.m. at Bear Creek Park, 13750 88 Ave. Check-in time is 8 a.m. (Early check-in can be done April 27 from 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at the Newton Library, 13795 70 Ave.).

The three walk loops available are 3K, 5K and 6.5K. Wheelchairs, scoot-ers or strollers are welcome. Teams can be set up by call-ing 604-602-3220 or email-ing [email protected]. For more information and to register for the event, visit http://bit.ly/16tSz6D or www.mswalks.ca

MS walk this SundayMS facts• First identifi ed in 1868, MS - a chronic disease that affects the central nervous system – is complex and unpredictable, and can cause loss of balance, impaired speech, extreme fatigue, double vision and paralysis. It can also affect hearing.• MS is most often diag-nosed between the ages of 15 and 40.• Canadians have one of the highest rates of multiple sclerosis in the world.• MS is the most common neurological disease affect-ing young adults in Canada.• Every day, three more people in Canada are diag-nosed with MS.• Women are more than three times as likely to de-velop MS as men.• The cause of MS is un-known, but research contin-ues.

Delta crime beatA pair of female thieves have been hitting

Tsawwassen beauty shops.At 6 p.m. on Thursday, April 11, two women

entered a spa on the 1300-block of 56th Street. One of the women distracted the employee by asking questions and requesting a tour, while the other woman entered the staff room and stole the keys to the premises. Both suspects then quickly � ed the scene.

Just half an hour later, the same two women entered a hair salon two blocks away on the 1100-block of 56th Street. This time the younger fe-male distracted the employee while the older female reached behind the counter and stole the employee’s iPhone and wallet.

Both the suspects then quickly � ed the salon.

The suspects in both inci-dents are described as a wom-an in her late 20s with long hair and the other in her late 40s with short dirty blond hair.

Details of the stolen phone and driver’s licence were entered in the po-lice information computer system. An investi-gation is ongoing.

Vandals caughtDelta police were called to the 900-block

of Paci� c Drive on April 11 after receiving re-ports of several youths damaging a neighbour’s

property. Police apprehended one of the sus-pects with another admitting his participation in the activity. Both suspects were remorseful and took full responsibility and will pay for the damage which amounts to several hundred dol-lars. The suspects turned over to the custody of their guardians.

Stolen bike recoveredA Ladner man was lucky to get his

bike back after it was stolen on April 13. The man had locked up his $600

bike in front of a drug store on the 5200-block of Ladner Trunk

Road, and returned to � nd the bike had been stolen.

Police entered details of the stolen bike into the po-lice computer information system, and the bike was

later located by the Vancou-ver Police Department and re-turned to the owner.

Cameras spot wallet thief

A woman in Ladner had her wallet stolen from her vehicle parked on the 9600-block of Ladner Trunk Road the evening of April 13. Soon thereafter an attempt had been made to use her credit card at the gas station. Police obtained video surveillance for possible identi-� cation of the suspect.

"The only consideration is the best interest of the child, whereas before it was just one of the considerations," Severide said. "That's a huge change."

Some of the biggest changes apply to common law couples. Now, common law couples are required to divide assets and

debts - just as a married couple would - if they have been liv-ing together for more than two years.

That's why Severide says it's important for people entering into a common law relation-ship to familiarize themselves with the changes to family law, and consider a cohabitation

agreement - similar to a pre-nuptial agreement.

"When it comes to your as-sets, what you grow together is shared. The debts you accumu-late are also shared, and that's new," she said. "But if that is something that you don't want, you should consider making an agreement."

The South Delta Artists Guild will be holding a fundraiser exhibition from May 2-26 with proceeds going to support the Delta Community Animal Shel-ter and the Orphaned Wildlife Rehabilitation Society.

Artist Lea Price has created

two bird houses and two paint-ings which she is donating to the show, called Cause for Paws, Feathers and Fur.

“I have two dogs and six cats and they’re all rescues and I know both organizations desperately need money,” she said. “To me, artists have re-sponsibilities. Sometimes we as artists don’t have money but

what we do have is time and it’s an easier way to help orga-nizations like that.”

Price said she expects 50 art-ists to participate in the show, which will feature artwork themed with animals or birds.

The opening reception to the show starts May 4, from 1-4 p.m. at the Tsawwassen Long-house Gallery, 1710 56th St.

Artists raising money for paws, feathers and fur

Musicians Rob Montgomery and Incognito, Jerry Doucette, and local band The Flat Five performed at the second annual Rockin’ for Reach benefit con-cert on April 16, helping to raise $8,736 for the Reach Child and Youth Development Society.

The funds will go towards Reach’s Building for Children Together project to build a new, community-based centre in Ladner that will provide better access to services, programs, education and resources to children and youth with devel-

opmental disabilities and their families.

Close to 250 guests attended the event, sponsored by Port Metro Vancouver, Regional Re-cycling, Westland Insurance, The Kinsmen Club of Ladner Tsawwassen.

In addition to tickets sales, funds were raised through sales proceeds of Tim Hortons cof-fee and Fresh Slice Pizza, 50/50 draw sales and through the event’s unique silent ‘rocktion’ auction, which created bidding wars over a guitar autographed

by Paul McCartney and record album signed by Bob Dylan.

Reach has raised close to $1 million of the $4 million needed to build their new home in Lad-ner, thanks to donations from businesses and individuals and from events like Rockin’ for Reach.

Reach’s next event will be McHappy Day on Wednesday, May 8, in Ladner and Tsawwas-sen McDonald’s restaurants. For more information visit www.reachdevelopment.org or call 604-946-6622 ext. 372.

Gardeners looking to begin potting and planting this spring can support a good cause in the process.

The 19th annual Gwen’s Growing and Giving (G3) event takes place May 4 in Ladner with proceeds going to the Orphaned Wildlife Rehabilita-tion Society (OWL) and a $500 bursary for a Delta student.

The event is com-pletely organized and run by local garden-ers volunteering their green thumbs for the cause.

“We have quite a strong mantra that we all love our commu-nity and we also like to garden,” said Judy Matilda, a volunteer and member of the organizing committee. “It’s our way of doing a fair amount of work for our community and just to give back.”

Last year’s sale was successful in raising $2,800 in just three hours, with 2,000 plants donated by community members and corporate spon-sors.

Sponsorship is as easy as donat-ing plants, explained Matilda. Many busi-nesses working in landscaping or whole-sale gardening will take plant products to the landfill.

This year, OWL will have a display at the plant sale and will include two live owls (weather permitting).

“We not only are gardeners but we are also animal lovers,” said Matilda.

Growing and Giv-ing was initiated in 1994 by a group of like-minded gardeners led by Gwen Szychter. The object was to share the excess pe-

rennial plants from the garden, sell them for a nominal fee and share the money earned with a com-munity group. Recipi-ents varied each year and included the local stroke recovery fund, Boys and Girls club, preschool library read-ing group, and the Air Force cadets.

In 2007 the fun-draiser decided to reach beyond the community to support an orphanage in Kaka-mega, Kenya.

After Gwen passed away in 2010, the or-ganizing committee renamed the fundrais-er Gwen’s Growing and Giving, a sharing and caring fundrais-er for local groups. As of last year, the event has raised over $20,000.

This year, G3 will award a $500 bursary to a Delta student en-

rolled in the field of agriculture, horticul-ture and/or environ-mental studies.

Event organizers are still looking for dona-tions and can contact Pam Mason at 604-

940-4274 or email her at [email protected].

The event takes

place Saturday, May 4, from 9 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at 5016 58A St. in Ladner.
