Couple raises $500K for new Lions Gate mental health centreAfter losing their teenage son to suicide, the Dennehy’s have been fighting to change the stigma of depression

» NEWS

Ginny Dennehy and her hus-band Kerry know the effects of depression first hand. They

lost their 17-year-old son, Kelty, to suicide 12 years ago and have been fighting to raise money and aware-ness since.

A foundation set up by the couple is donating $500,000 for a new men-tal health facility at Lions Gate Hospital in an effort to provide sup-port for young people with depression and change common perceptions of the disease.

Through the Kelty Patrick Dennehy Foundation, they have raised $4 million for suicide preven-tion programs, a mental health facil-ity at BC Children’s Hospital and other services.

The facility at Lions Gate Hospital is their latest project.

Construction has begun on the new $62-million mental health facil-ity, which will replace the hospital’s aging inpatient psychiatric until that was built in the 1920s.

“Our lofty, big goal is to have a resource centre in every province and territory of Canada,” said Dennehy, who was awarded a Golden Jubilee Medal this month for her contribu-tion to health care.

The new four-storey mental health facility, named the HOpe Centre after another donor, will have 26 private rooms and is expected to decrease wait times. Slated to open early next year, the building will also be used

as a training space for UBC medial students.

Their son’s friends, family and doctors were never able to under-stand or manage Kelty’s depres-sion. His depression and anxiety got worse while away at high school in Saskatchewan but it continued when he came back home.

In 2009, the Dennehy family expe-rienced another loss when their 23-year-old daughter Riley, who struggled with the loss of her brother for years, passed away suddenly from pain medication in Thailand.

“We started with [BC Children’s Hospital] because Kelty was a child,”

Dennehy told The Outlook. They tack-led Lions Gate Hospital next because the family is from Whistler, which is in the catchment area.

“Depression is a disease like any other disease,” said Dennehy, who is cycling across Canada with her hus-band on their first national campaign “Enough is Enough,” an initiative to remove stigma associated with mental illness. They plan to begin in Newfoundland on May 12 and end in Whistler mid-August.

“Maybe we could all pay $500 to keep it open, to make it like a club to belong to?” asks one woman who has been a

customer for years. A few of her favourite titles in hand, this visit will be one of her last.

The DVDs are for sale now in an effort to clear stock before the doors close permanently at the end of this month.

Due to competition from pay-per-view movies, online subscription services and illegal downloading, video stores on the North Shore and elsewhere have been suffering. In North and West Van, the vast majority have closed.

Just 10 years ago, Frontier Video’s manager Suzy Walker remembers there were around 30 on the

North Shore. Once Frontier closes, there will only be a couple left in North Van.

But she is proud her small store on Marine Drive and 18th Street outlasted the bigger chains. Rogers Video in Park Royal North was the last chain store standing in West Van, but shut down when its cus-tomers turned to the Internet instead.

“The sad part is you can’t get everything online. Older movies, foreigns, classics — we have them all here,” says Walker, pointing towards a wall that was once full of hard-to-get movies.

“You usually can’t get special features online either, and people really like those.”

The steady decline in movie rentals coupled with the high rent in West Van has made owning a video store in the municipality financially impossible.

It’s a reality many find difficult to stomach. As cus-tomers file in to buy discounted movies and TV series, some are visibly upset the store is closing.

“Where are we going to rent movies now?” says one movie buff carrying six of his favourites. “At least I own these now. I don’t know where else I would get these.”

Frontier Video’s owner David Han bought the shop nearly 20 years ago, but it has been under different names for a quarter century.

First called 24hrs Video then Wilderness Video, Han changed the name when he took over.

He now stands behind the cash regis-ter selling his last movies. But he isn’t able to ring through movies for long.

A longtime customer wants a proper goodbye, so Han steps to the side while an employee takes over.

Han has seen rentals change from clunky videos to DVDs and more recently Blu-rays. He remembers the

brief popularity of laser discs, which were as big as records and took several changes to complete a movie.

“We’re the last place to rent a movie on the way to Whistler, so a lot of people stop in before they go,” says his manager. “All the stores have closed down there and in Pemberton too.”

Having grown up making trips to the video store, Walker says the closures are making society less social. “You can do anything at home now, on the Internet. The days are going where you could walk down with friends to rent a movie and talk to people about which ones to get. It’s sad.”

Walker knows where every movie is in the entire store, but hasn’t had the chance to watch the majority of the collection.

“We have thousands here. Way more than you’ll find online.”

It’s not so much “paid for” rivals like Netflix that are making small stores suffer, she explains, it’s ille-gal downloading.

“Yes, it’s free but you can’t find everything, and it takes a lot of the fun out of renting a movie — the social aspect is a big part of it.”

Frontier Video is located at 1760 Marine Drive, next to Dairy Queen. Drop in to buy videos and TV series until Feb. 28.

The North Shore has a seemingly endless demand for sushi.

That’s why Joe Lin wasn’t afraid to open shop, even with more than 40 sushi restaurants nearby, including three within just a block.

But competition is still tough, so breaking away from the ordinary is the only option.

“Yes sushi is popular, but it’s been the same for about 15 years,” Lin explains, taking a break from making rolls at Capilano Sushi in North Vancouver.

“I knew all the restaurants, did my research, and when we opened I knew what I had to offer.”

Besides the typical California roll combos, he makes specialty rolls that are more like artistic cre-ations to this UBC fine arts graduate.

The names say it all.There’s the El Mexicano:Spicy tuna and radish sprout inside, topped with

fresh guacamole and drizzled with honey citrus sauce and tobiko (fish roe), $10.

And the Empire State:A jumbo hotdog and cream cheese inside, topped

with pastrami and grated dill pickle, drizzled with creamy honey dijon, $10.

If it weren’t for his restaurant, Lin says he would probably be working in the creative side of adver-tising. But his career plans changed within months

when he realized the sushi spot he worked for was going up for sale.

In early 2010, he bought the restaurant near Save-On-Foods on Marine Drive with a partner, quickly renovated it and revamped the menu.

The competition didn’t daunt him. With two sushi restaurants directly across the street and a few more within a quick walk, he still spotted some-

thing missing in the market. “We don’t want to copy them. We provide some-

thing different,” he says as customers shuffle in and out.

CKNW ORPHANS’ FUND

TOM FLETCHERB l a c k P r e s s

VICTORIA – Premier Christy Clark kicked off the pre-election legislature session Tuesday with a pledge to establish a new fund from natural gas exports to support social programs and pay down debt.

The main purpose of the “British Columbia Prosperity Fund” will be to pay down debt, starting in 2017 when the first liquefied natu-ral gas facilities begin to ship LNG for export from the northern coast to Asian markets. It will be funded by a tax on LNG exports, as well as gas producers’ corporate taxes and tradition-al natural gas royalty revenues.

The new fund is patterned after Alberta’s Heritage Fund, set up in 1976 as a legacy for Alberta’s oil and gas revenues. The B.C. fund would receive an estimated $100 billion from LNG revenues over 30 years, based on an assumption of five LNG production facilities exporting gas from the Kitimat-Prince Rupert region.

The plan was presented in the throne speech delivered Tuesday by Lieutenant Governor Judith Guichon, to open a four-week legislature session leading up to the May 14 provincial election. The key task for the B.C. Liberal gov-ernment in that session is to pass legislation returning the provincial sales tax to B.C. effec-tive April 1, and the speech hinted at relieving that tax as one use for the new fund.

“Whether it is eliminating the provincial sales tax, or making long-term investments in areas like education or vital infrastructure that strengthen communities – these are the kinds of opportunities the B.C. Prosperity Fund can provide,” the speech says.

NDP leader Adrian Dix said the govern-ment’s focus on LNG development is at odds with its heavily advertised jobs plan, with little mention of forestry, mining, tourism, film and TV production or high technology. The govern-ment missed its natural gas revenue targets in a budget update six months ago, so project-ing LNG revenues many years in the future is questionable at best, he said.

The government estimates that if B.C.’s LNG mega-project develops as expected, and all of the fund’s revenues are directed to debt reduc-tion, B.C.’s $56 billion debt could be paid off within a decade. The province currently pays about $2.5 billion a year in interest on the debt.

There has been a rush of international investment interest in northeastern B.C.’s shale gas deposits. Companies include Mitsubishi Corp., Shell Canada, China National Petroleum Corporation and Petronas, a trans-national gas player owned by the gov-ernment of Malaysia.

The King of Elvis tribute artists Award-winning performer Darren Lee and his band the Memphis Flash play Centennial Theatre on Feb. 22

» COFFEE WITH

As you might expect, Las Vegas is a mag-net for top Elvis tribute artists.

So to stand out, you’ve gotta have more than a rhinestone-adorned jumpsuit and gyrating hips.

Darren Lee knows what it takes.He performed in Vegas for 11 straight

years as the King in the acclaimed American Superstar’s Show at the Stratosphere Hotel and Casino.

Turns out, that’s a record run for Elvis trib-ute performers.

Other Elvis impersonators may have worked in Vegas longer, but not for consecu-tive years in the same casino show. Six nights a week Lee performed six songs in the ensem-ble show that lasted more than a decade.

During his stay in casino country, Lee met about 25 performers who did Elvis.

And while he says there aren’t “as many as you would think” it’s still a highly competitive subgenre.

There were convention Elvises, wedding Elvises and showroom Elvises.

“Everybody wants to be in a showroom,” he explains. “It’s what pays the most.”

Conventions were the most competitive, he adds. “[There are] certain Elvises that do that and nothing else.”

What made Lee stand out? If you go to YouTube and type in his name

it becomes obvious. Some tribute performers look like Elvis,

some sound like him and some move like him — but Lee hits the mark in all the aforemen-tioned categories.

Plus, as he notes, “I’m lucky I can do all eras of Elvis.”

Some impersonators, for instance, can only do the jumpsuit period.

While living in Las Vegas, Lee, as Elvis, also performed around 50 marriages a month at the Garden of Love Chapel. “That was a lot of fun,” says Lee, who became an ordained minister in Nevada.

But performing under the Vegas lights is not his only claim to fame.

Originally from Edmonton, he seriously began his Elvis tribute career in 1988 after placing second in a contest. That led to one of the other tribute artists recommending him for an audition to be in the Elvis-Elvis-Elvis show. He got the gig and played ’50s-era Elvis across Canada. That led to more tribute shows, tours, fan clubs and, eventually the Vegas show.

One of the biggest highlights in his career came in 1997 when he was named the No. 1 Elvis Tribute Artist in the World at a contest in Memphis on the 20th

anniversary of Elvis’s death.Lee’s musical career began early when his

mom bought him his first guitar at three and introduced him to the music of Elvis and other legendary performers.

By 15, he was routinely performing in tal-ent contests.

Since leaving Las Vegas, Lee’s guitar case has been collecting plenty of airport stickers.

He’s in Edmonton tonight, back to Vancouver, then to Camrose, Alta., and then on to Hartley Bay (90 miles south of Prince Rupert) and later Maui. Next Friday, he plays at North Vancouver’s Centennial Theatre.

When discussing his 25-year Elvis tribute career, there are many highlights and memo-ries, none perhaps as special as when he was honoured last month with a Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal for his musical work.

At the ceremony in Surrey, he was asked to appear in costume (he wore a red jacket, black shirt and white tie) and he sang the national anthem, “Elvis style.”

“The national anthem sounded like Little Sister,” he says.

On Feb. 22, Lee will bring his show to Centennial Theatre with his band the Memphis Flash.

“It will be the best Elvis show anyone’s ever seen,” he says. “Guaranteed.”

It took a cultural shift to battle drinking and driving, perhaps it’s time to make another shift so fewer pedestrians die in

our streets.As with drunk driving, we can do that by

changing laws, attitudes and public percep-tion.

Tougher laws and costly penalties made it unacceptable to drink and drive. Groups such as Mothers Against Drunk Driving got behind the campaigns and programs such as Operation Red Nose made it easier for people to make the right choice during the holidays. Corporations launched campaigns to make it cool to be the designated driver and drivers — thus educated and forewarned — changed their behaviour.

It may take similar efforts to reduce the number of pedestrian fatalities, which last year totalled 63, according to the BC Coroner’s Service. That’s almost the same number of people who were killed by drunk drivers last year, yet where’s the outcry?

The sad fact is it’s walking seniors, 70 years and older, who die the most often in a collision with a car. Where do most of these fatalities occur? At intersections and marked crosswalks. When? In December and January, when it’s dark and rainy. In fact, people of all ages are at greatest risk during this prov-ince’s gloomiest months.

Pedestrians need to understand that there are no safe intersections or crosswalks. Adults must apply the same safety rules they teach their kids: be aware of your surround-ings, look both ways, make eye contact with drivers. And sorry, seniors, old age is not an exemption from the crucial lessons we direct at our youth.

But it doesn’t stop there: Driver education must be enhanced, laws must be toughened and outerwear must be reflective, or at the very least lighter in colour.

Pedestrian fatalities aren’t any less serious than drunk driving deaths. So why are they treated that way?

Vancouver’s real housewives are back — for Season 2! And once again, there are more than a few North Shore faces sched-uled to appear on your television screen.

Last week, the glam girls gathered at the Loden Hotel to watch the premiere episode of Real Housewives of Vancouver - Season 2 at a private party with friends, family and invite-only guests.

The champagne was flowing and the ladies all spar-kled in fabu-lous bejewelled gowns and designer name accessories. New wives Ioulia Reynolds, Amanda Hansen and Robin Reichman joined returning stars Jody Claman, Mary Zilba and Ronnie Negus for a night of celebrity celebration.

Fashion wise, it was basic black mixed with sparkles everywhere you looked. Mary, Ronnie and Ioulia rocked the red carpet in anything-but-basic black which made them all look equally gorgeous, elegant and fetch-ing.

West Van’s flamboyant mother-daughter team of Jody and Mia Claman were big time Hollywood glam in floor-length bejewelled gowns which sparkled even more than the Moet. And newcomers Robin and Amanda were extra glittery in gold and see-through hues encrusted with enough sequins and beads to make Cher jealous.

After the reception, it was time to see the action — and reactions. Everyone turned to the televisions as nervous giggles filled the air. In the end, it was a spectacular evening that sets the stage for an even more exciting season of entertainment and fun.

Massive Squamish Nation mall may be reality by 2014 Commercial development on the Squamish Nation’s Seymour Creek reserve represents a new way forward for the band

A lot has been said lately about the Squamish Nation and its government’s land development plans.But amid all the talk about condo towers beside the Burrard Bridge and new high-rises at Park Royal, one project coming quietly down the pipe may well trump them all.

It concerns 30 acres of land on the Squamish Nation’s Seymour Creek reserve near the Second Narrows Bridge, bracketed by Mt. Seymour Parkway, Dollarton Highway and Seymour Creek.

Currently home to the Real Canadian Superstore, Seymour Creek Golf Centre, an automotive yard and the Squamish administrative offices, the reserve may soon house a massive mixed commercial-residential development unlike anything the North Shore has seen.

While design studies and consultations with band membership are expected to ramp up in 2013, the new $65-million Seymour Creek Village centre could break ground as early as next year, according to Squamish Nation Chief Ian Campbell.

“We’re looking for the highest and best use of the land,” Campbell told The Outlook last week, noting the band has had unsolicited expressions of interest from several big-box

retailers like Home Depot, Future Shop and Winners.

The most recent plan calls for a 430,000-square-foot “destination” shopping centre comprised of a mix of large-format retailers with smaller shops, services and restaurants spread throughout.

The mall would also feature a Squamish Nation cultural centre and craft store showcasing the band’s heritage and art, and could be home to a new Nation head-quarters, if the old administrative building isn’t incorporated into the new village plan.

The Nation is also considering moving its offices to the 100 Park Royal tower on the Capilano Reserve in West Vancouver.

For the time being, the Seymour Creek plans remain just that — plans — but the Nation’s development partner, Emerson Real Estate Group, is eager to move on them — perhaps even before next year.

“We are hopeful that this is the year we’ll get a shovel in the ground,” Emerson presi-dent Ron Emerson told The Outlook last month. Of course, he conceded, nothing will go ahead until the band leadership say so.

Together with fellow developer Progres-sive Properties, Emer-son’s company would retain one-quarter of the project lands on a 99-year sub lease, Progressive would retain one-quarter and the band would control the other half. A provision in the partners’ agreement allows the Squamish to buy out the developers in the future if it so chooses, while restrict-ing its partners from buying more than their combined 50-per-cent ownership.

The Nation first sought proposals for the village project back in 1999, though its plans for the economic rejuvenation of the reserve date back more than a half-century to a 1962 band council decision to exploit the Seymour lands to the utmost benefit to the Nation.

Further discussion among subsequent band councils has recommended the Nation move beyond the role of simply collecting rent from reserve tenants, towards becom-ing owners of their own economic enter-prises.

The Squamish Nation estimates the Sey-mour Village project will bring a hundred-fold increase in revenue from the Seymour lands. In real terms, where the band today receives roughly $100 a day from its cur-rent tenants, the Nation estimates it will pull in $10,000 per day with the Seymour Creek Village development.

There will be benefits too for those band members wishing to run a business in the

village, such as discounted rental rates and tax breaks on retail space.

Yet to be decided is whether the new village will include residential units or not. There are many factors that will affect that decision, Chief Campbell said, such as whether the housing market continues to soften and whether BC Hydro’s Walters Substation on the reserve lands can be relocated.

For its part, the District of North Vancou-ver has encouraged the Squamish Nation to embrace residential development as part of the overall village plan, according to Brian Bydwell, the district’s general man-ager of planning, properties and permits.

“We’ve always encouraged them to look at a mixed-use residential and commer-cial,” Bydwell told The Outlook, comparing the project to the district’s adjacent Lower Lynn Town Centre development.

“We’ve always understood that their com-mercial was going to be more regional ori-ented [given] its connection to the highway, whereas our commercial in Lower Lynn would be more neighbourhood-specific to that community,” he said.

District Mayor Richard Walton, who also chairs the TransLink may-ors’ council, told The Outlook he thinks the Seymour village development would do well to position itself

as a regional transit hub, perhaps taking a relocated Phibbs Exchange as the village’s centrepiece.

“The exact geographical centre of North Vancouver district is Seymour Creek — is that site,” Walton said. “But the challenge, of course, is that when TransLink goes ahead and does its regional plans — as it’s doing right now and is virtually finished the North Shore plan — they can only plan based on what they know.”

So, without finalized plans for the village, a transit hub remains one of the many question marks still lingering around Seymour Creek, questions Chief Campbell hopes will be answered this year.

“We have a million files on the go and only have so much manpower, so much resources,” he said. “So we now have to look at our priorities and what’s going to yield the highest and best use before we bring that forward now to the membership.”

reinventing the roll - Along with his one-of-a-kind rolls, owner Joe

Lin has also made the atmosphere of his sushi restaurant unqique with dark walls and abstract art. Rob Newell photos

items like Japanese style fish and chips:Your choice of tuna, salmon or oyster with yam

fries, dill pickle and house tartar sauce, $10. Lin even tried to make the restaurant’s atmosphere

stand out from other sushi spots. Shortly after mov-ing in, he covered up the evergreen murals with dark wood and abstract paintings.

More upscale than some other sushi restaurants, he says it’s a good place to take a date. And, don’t worry, it will be an affordable one.

To be competitive in a North Van market that’s saturated with sushi restaurants, Lin says he has to keep the prices low. Besides his specialty rolls, he also has a popular $7-sushi combo with a choice of three items and miso soup, which goes well with weekly deals like $2.99 pints of Granville Island Honey Lager.

“The trick is to be as efficient as possible. It’s easi-er to do with a smaller place like this,” says Lin, who learned to make rolls to pay his way through univer-sity. It was those five years of experience that let him experiment with different ingredients.

“I noticed a lot of people like only vegetable rolls, but they only had simple rolls to choose from,” he says about his idea for the vegetarian-friendly Golden Coast:

Asparagus and cream cheese inside, topped with fresh avocado and mayo slices, drizzled with honey citrus sauce.

“I wanted to make something with the same high quality as other sushi, but with just vegetables.”

There are only two sushi restaurants across from Capilano Sushi now; the other burned down a couple of years ago and never reopened. But another soon popped up three blocks away.

“We want to be ourselves, to be different,” says Lin. “Unique food, good quality. That’s why customers keep coming back.”

Capilano Sushi is located at 1240 Marine Dr., attached to Save-On-Foods. Go to capilanosushi.com for the menu.

Honour choir comes to West Van

» ARTS

The most talented choral singers in the West Vancouver school district will come together in a new course next

school year. District Honour Choir is open to skilled

students in Grades 7 to 12 who have experi-ence singing in a choir and know basic music theory. Auditions take place in April.

“This program is for the finest young singers in the district,” said music teacher Suzanne Fulton, who will be leading the class.

“The kids have to be pretty exceptional to get in.”

The course, which will run on Wednesday evenings at West Van secondary school, is worth four fine arts credits a year, allowing students to earn additional credits towards graduation before they hit their senior years of high school.

“These students will be motivated to per-form at a very high level,” says Fulton.

“We’re starting in Grade 7 to show students in elementary school what’s possible in high school.

A parent/student information meeting is being held on Feb, 20 at West Van secondary.

For more information, visit sd45.bc.ca/news/honour-choir.html.

Proposed surge in oil tankers manageable, port says

» NEWS

Same size vessels expected despite larger pipeline plan

JEFF NAGELB l a c k P r E s s

Port officials say they don’t expect harbour traffic jams to arise from a major increase in the number of oil tankers loading from an expanded Trans Mountain pipeline.

Kinder Morgan Canada announced in mid-January it has enough committed shippers to justify a larger pipeline expansion to a capacity of 890,000 barrels per day.

That’s expected to bring up to 34 oil tankers per month, up from about 25 previously forecast and around five per month right now.

Port Metro Vancouver harbour master Yoss Leclerc said the project would, if it advances, undergo a comprehensive review of harbour transit needs.

But he said it doesn’t appear the new size of the proposed pipeline – bringing up to 400 tank-ers a year – would tie up too many anchorages and cause a shortage of space for other cargo ships.

“Usually the tankers don’t stay a long time at anchor – one to two days,” Leclerc said.“Looking at what we saw from Kinder Morgan, I don’t see any forseeable issue in terms of

anchorages or where to put them.”Nor did he expect harbour traffic restrictions – no other vessels are permitted to move in the

Second Narrows when a tanker is transiting – to be too onerous for other users of the water-way.

He was responding after Burnaby NDP MP Kennedy Stewart suggested an “oil export only port” could be the end result if Kinder Morgan continues to upsize the pipeline project.

“There will be a choke point in Burrard Inlet where you have so many tankers you can’t have any more traffic,” Stewart said.

Stewart argues the Kinder Morgan may expand the planned line further – to a million bar-rels per day and beyond – and at that point there will be enormous pressure to dredge the Second Narrows to allow much larger oil tankers.

The current Aframax size tankers carry up to 650,000 barrels per day, but due to draft restrictions in the harbour they are only loaded 75 to 80 per cent full so they sit no deeper than 13 metres in the water.

“They are going to bring the same size of vessels that are coming today,” Leclerc said. “From our perspective, the project will not require any dredging, not even with the new information, with the expansion.”

SHOPPING LOCAL MADE EASYVillage vibe makes shopping local fun

With a wide range of independent stores, restaurants and cafés, Edgemont Village is a one-stop

shopping destination for North Shore residents. The unique retail strip makes buying local easy. Whether you’re looking for a small gift, a new jacket, a haircut or fresh seafood, the boulevard has it all. “We like the feeling of being in a small village,” says Phyllis Ferguson, who walked to Edgemont Village from Upper Lonsdale with her husband. A coff ee in one hand and fresh-baked bread in the other, she makes the weekly trip to visit Highlands United Church. “You can get everything you need here. There are a lot of places to shop, like the children’s books store and clothing stores.”With more than 100 shops in Edgemont Village, her husband Lindsay Bottomer agrees there is plenty to see. “It’s a neat place. We especially like the library.” He’s talking about the newly renovated Capilano Library, located right next to the shopping strip. Brick-lined sidewalks and mountain backdrop make Edgemont Village a peaceful getaway that’s conveniently

located within minutes from anywhere on the North Shore. It’s also a great place to meet friends or go for a stroll, says Tom Ruff alls outside a coff ee shop. “It’s so close to everything and very easy to access. You can get almost anything here, there isn’t really a reason to leave.”Ruff alls often meets his friends on the boulevard to grab a coff ee or a bite to eat. It’s this small-town village vibe that makes Edgemont Village the perfect place to visit.

Best in snowNorth Vancouver-based snowboarder Chris Robanske rockets to first World Cup victory

» SPORTS

JUSTIN BEDDALLE d I T o r

After snowboarder Chris Robanske won his first-ever World Cup event a few weeks ago in Ontario he texted a

friend, promising to buy him a beer when he got back to North Vancouver.

That friend happened to be his former teammate and coach — and the last Canadian snowboarder to win a World Cup snowboard cross event, Drew Neilson.

Neilson accomplished the feat back in 2007 and has since retired after competing in the 2010 Vancouver Olympics.

Along with sharing slope techniques and other trade secrets, Neilson can also be count-ed on off the slopes. When Robanske moved into an Upper Lonsdale basement suite in April, he helped him furnish the place.

“He had some extra furniture kicking around,” says Robanske, with a laugh.

So, all told, Neilson was pretty deserving of a cold one.

Robanske, an Alberta native, moved to North Van last April so he could regularly train with Anthony Findlay and the crew at Level 10 Fitness.

So far his off-season dedication has paid off. “That’s obviously my biggest career high-

light to date,” he says of the Feb. 2 victory at Blue Mountain.

It was Robanske’s third World Cup podium finish in just five races.

Winning hasn’t been a problem for the young boarder — but staying healthy has.

In 2011, he broke his back competing in the X-Games when he overshot a jump and last season he fractured his ankle.

Right now, he feels bionic. Since April he’s trained six days a week at Level 10 alongside other high-performance athletes, including the hockey-playing Reinhart brothers and other pro and elite amateur stars.

He credits Level 10 with helping him achieve a base strength that will last all win-ter long.

It’s also the place where he met girlfriend Micayla Gatto, a pro downhill mountain bike racer from West Van who has introduced him to the legendary North Shore trails.

This season Robanske is focused on finish-ing top three overall on the World Cup circuit (he’s currently second) and next year’s goal is standing on the Olympic podium in Russia.

On Monday, Robanske departed for Russia along with a group of other Canadians to par-ticipate in a test event at Sochi in advance of the 2014 Games. For updates on the race results, visit northshoreoutlook.com.

North Shore 100-mile runner breaks Hawaii record

» SPORTS

Gary Robbins of North Vancouver has broken his previous record

for 161-kilometre foot race

TODD COYNES T a f f R e p O R T e R

The last time The Outlook spoke with Gary Robbins, the North Vancouver ultra-marathoner was in a world of

hurt.The 36-year-old was then recovering from

a broken foot — his second break in a year — which he incurred while training on the rugged mountain trails of Hawaii.

The injury earned him a rescue helicop-ter ride and nearly half a year on crutches. What’s more, it cast doubt on whether the founder of the Squamish 50 Trail Race would ever compete again.

But compete he did and last month Robbins affirmed his comeback by return-ing to the same Oahu trail that nearly ended his career less than two years ago.

This time he was competing in the aptly named Hawaiian Ultra Running Team (HURT) 100-mile race.

Not only did Robbins compete and finish the 161-kilometre foot race, he won.

And not only did he win, but his finishing time of 19 hours and 35 minutes set a new record for the 13-year-old race, smashing Robbins’ own 2010 record by 37 minutes.

And while his post-injury return to Oahu met with every success, it was still an emo-tional rollercoaster.

“The foot was fine — there were no issues — but there was actually a bit of an emo-tional scar that presided,” Robbins told The Outlook last week. “I actually had minor flashbacks to that moment of crawling over those rocks 17 months prior.”

But the flashbacks faded and were soon eclipsed by the realization that Robbins was not only on track to win the race but to do so well under the elusive 20-hour mark.

Of the 150 entrants to the Jan. 22 race, only 45 even finished.

The course is structured around five laps of a 20-mile loop, with each loop containing 5,000 feet of rise and descent, making for a total race differential of 25,000 vertical feet.

“It’s similar to our North Shore terrain with very big tree roots, so we’re almost at an unfair advantage training here,” Robbins said. “In December I actually ran 730 kilometres of training in a month, typically around Grouse Mountain and Seymour.”

And how does an ultra-marathoner sus-tain himself over 20 hours of non-stop run-ning? With a diet that Robbins called a feat “in and of itself.”

To wit, 40 packages of carbohydrate gel, three energy bars, two litres of Coca-Cola and half a watermelon.

For his efforts, Robbins was awarded $500 — not much, he admits, given how physically and emotionally taxing such competitions are. But, he insists, running has for him always been more about the journey than the glory of competition.

He’s not alone with those motives.In fact, what awaits every 100-miler who

finishes a race in under 30 hours is the same across North America: a belt buckle, in keeping with a tradition that began in California in the 1970s.

Not that North America is the only place where people are crazy enough to take a stab at ultra running. In April, Robbins flies to Japan to compete in the Ultra-Trail Mt. Fuji, then in August he’s off to France for the Ultra-Trail du Mont Blanc.

TransLink bus drivers get pay hikes of two per cent a year

» NEWS

Union members ratify new contract with Coast Mountain Bus

Jeff NAGELB L a c k p R e S S

Coast Mountain Bus Co. drivers and other unionized staff will get a four per cent pay increase over the next two years under a new contract ratified last week.

The three-year deal reached last week provides no retroactive wage hikes for the first year – the old contract expired last March – but gives two per cent raises in 2013 and 2014.

The new collective agreement was ratified in an 88 per cent vote by members of two Canadian Auto Workers locals who work at TransLink’s bus subsidiary.

It covers more than 4,700 transit operators, mechanics, maintenance and SeaBus workers, running to March 31, 2015.

CAW local 111 president Don MacLeod said the deal ensures no con-cessions for workers while complying with the net-zero government mandate for other public sector unions in the first year.

MacLeod said the union also negotiated improvements to bus sched-uling running times to improve service and address its concerns about pass-ups, overcrowding and lack of night bus service.

He said the union will continue to work with TransLink to reduce fare evasion as well as violent attacks on bus drivers.

The annual pay increases will add at least $6 million in each of the next two years to the $320-million annual cost of wages for the drivers and other operations staff, according to Coast Mountain Bus director of operations Don Rice.

“There’s no net increase in costs other than the straight wage increase,” Rice said.

Coast Mountain is still bargaining with two smaller groups of work-ers – transit and maintenance supervisors, as well as other workers in depot dispatch and security.

Rice said Coast Mountain has made significant savings in its cost structure after two audits last year.

we’ve got you covered.

Always wash items before letting children wear or use.

When buying electronics always bring your own batteries and test to make sure they work.

Ask questions and do your homework when purchasing things like furniture or strollers. Find out the make, model and manufacturer and research possible recalls or safety concerns.

Do not buy toys made before 1978 (the year that lead paint in toys was banned).

ALWAYS deal directly with people in person - do not mail any products or money.

When you find a person you trust who sells good quality items at fair prices, ask if you can touch base with them periodically to see what they are currently selling or might be selling in the future (espcially if their baby is a bit older than yours - match made in heaven).

We advise you not to buy used car seats.

Top Tips for BUYERSPRESENTS

Top Tips for SELLERSGroup items together - people are much more likely to come to your house to pick up 5 shirts for $10 than they are to come pick up one shirt for $2.

Remove batteries from your electronics once they are no longer being used to avoid any damaging corrosion before they are sold.

Take and post your own pictures (not ones off the manufacturer’s website) - your ad will get noticed more.

Try to know and make available as much information as possible - make, model and manufacturer so that the purchaser may look up that product to ensure it’s safety.

Do not sell items that have recalls or safety issues. Always work with the manufacturer to get a refund or rebate instead of passing the problem along to someone else, as you could potientially find yourself liable in the future.

ALWAYS deal directly with people in person - do not mail any products or money.
