Safeway workers win $500,000

Peace lady calls it a careerFor more than 30 years, Freda Walker, with her benevolent

eyes and warm smile, has been the close friend someoneneeded in their darkest days.

In all those decades, Walker, in her dedicated role as aRichmond Hospice Association and Rotary Hospice Housevolunteer, forged many tight bonds with terminally ill peopleand their families, right until the end of their lives.

She said she’s been humbled by the dignity, bravery andgrace from patients in their final hours — many of whomsought to resolve long-standing rifts before it’s too late andsome who kept a tight grip on the last throws of life untilrelatives flew in from around the world.

Despite looking on as friend after friend inevitably, given theenvironment, slipped away, Walker was candid in explaininghow she dealt with each loss.

“That was the part that was the hardest; but they all moveon, right?” said Walker,one of the foundingmembers of theRichmond HospiceAssociation.

“You get so closeto them; sometimesspending a year withthem and their family.

“But it’s been awonderful experience.”

Last week, however,Steveston resident Walker — one of the first to volunteer at theRotary Hospice House, the free-standing facility on No. 4 Roadwhen it opened in 2005 — retired at the age of 88, citing theneed to spend more time with her family, who’ve moved away.

A social worker for most of her career, Walker knew whenshe retired that she really wanted to work with the elderly.

“This is what I really wanted to do,” she said.“There were only two volunteers at the beginning at the

hospice and with my background and experience, I wanted tohelp them live their last precious years as best they could.”

So many people have so many frightening things happeningin their lives near the end, said Walker, and she was “wellequipped to help them get through that.

“It’s been very humbling for me, learning every day howpeople deal with (death) in very different ways and howdifferent cultures take care of it differently, as well.”

Walker said the most rewarding times during her 30-plusyears were guiding people towards a peaceful ending.

“For most of them, it was very peaceful and it’s good toknow they’re at peace and I helped a little with that.”

As for growing older herself, Walker quipped, “Ageing is forsissies. I’m 88 now and my family has all moved away, and Ihave a great grandchild in Ontario; I might move there.”

Richmond Hospice Association and Rotary Hospice Housethanked Walker for her dedication and wished her a wonderfulretirement.

Agroup of 13 workers at aRichmond Safeway are very excitedafter Terry Lynn Nichols purchaseda Lotto 6/49 ticket for the group andsaid ‘Yes’ to the Extra – leading to a$500,000 win!Nichols, who represents the group

of 13 co-workers in trust, purchasedthe ticket at the convenience store atBlundell and Garden City roads forthe Dec. 12 draw. Nichols went to thesame store she always purchases at andbought $65 worth of Quick Pick Lotto6/49 tickets.When Nichols, who runs the lottery

group with a good friend, validated theticket she “started freaking out.”“I was pacing around the store and

turned to the person beside me to ask if

I was really seeing $500,000.” Nicholssaid.Nichols promptly called everyone in

the group, who are all very excited.“They’re all really good people,”

said Nichols. “We’ve worked

together for years and years.”Nichols said she plans to pay off

some debt, do some shopping and dosome traveling with her portion of theprize. Each group member will receivemore than $38,000.

Some immigrants are receiving lessfinancial support in Richmond as a result offederal government changes to settlementservices.The problem is more pronounced in a city

with a high ratio of newcomers.This year, the federal government took

control of funding for settlement services.The new funding formula is based on intakeof immigrants and refugees by each province.As a whole, B.C. saw a dip in intake last

year, so the federal government reducedfunding accordingly, by seven per cent.Another funding reduction of 11 per cent is

expected in 2015, as well.Another problem, cited in a City of

Richmond report to city council by headsocial planner Lesley Sherlock, is that fundingis allocated on a year-to-year basis.Presenting even more problems for non-

profit, community service groups is how thefederal government has withdrawn fundingfor certain immigrants.Sherlock’s report notes funding is no longer

available for temporary foreign workers,study permit holders, refugee claimants andCanadian citizens.Only immigrants with permanent resident

status and government-assisted refugees areeligible.“The successful settlement and integration

of immigrants and refugees is vital to thesocial and economic health of our society,”concludes Sherlock, who asked city council

to advocate for provincial funding of theaforementioned ineligible newcomers.“Many will now have to wait to complete

the immigration process before receivingservices,” noted Sherlock.A perceived problem is the fact that while

immigrants will be declared landed in oneprovince, they can always move to another,thus skewing the funding formula. Moreproblematic is that immigrants can cluster incertain cities, as is the case in Richmond.According to city data, an estimated 18,600

immigrants settled in Richmond between2006 and 2011. Chinese people accountedfor 56 per cent of those immigrants whileFilipinos accounted for 18 per cent. All in all,60 per cent of the city’s population was bornoutside of Canada.Program funding changes have had a direct

impact on the Richmond School District as2.8 full-time settlement worker positions havebeen cut as 25 per cent of clients have beendeemed ineligible.As an example of the cuts, international

students will no longer receive English as aSecond Language courses.The Richmond News has reported on at

least two examples of cuts:The community service group CHIMO lost

settlement funding. CHIMO helps women incrisis. Settlement funding supported helpingvulnerable female immigrants.Meanwhile, the Richmond in 3D troupe

lost funding for its self-empowerment theatreworkshop — theWelcoming and InclusiveCommunities andWorkplaces Program— aimed at engaging immigrant children.

As a result of Richmond’s low crime rate,the city’s taxpayers pay more to the RCMPthan the actual policing value they receive.Integrated RCMP squads service many

municipalities in B.C. and policing costsare shared amongst them. However somemunicipalities have higher crime rates.According to a report to the city’s safety

committee last week fromAnne Stevens, thecity’s manager of community safety policyand programs, Richmond paid $372,455more for policing than was necessary lastyear. Over the past three years the city haspaid an extra $182,000 per year for multi-jurisdictional policing.The bills are a result of integrated police

units such as the Integrated HomicideInvestigation Team (IHIT) and the IntegratedCollisionAnalysis and ReconstructionService (ICARS).With few murders in Richmond, IHIT

accounts for most of Richmond’s overcharges,while the city receives slightly more valuefor ICARS. The funding formula is basedon 25 per cent population and 75 per centof criminal offences committed within each

municipality. So, Richmond residents de factosubsidize murder investigations in Surrey.Last year, the city spent $3.3 million on

integrated RCMP services. By 2020, thosecosts are expected to reach $4.7 million peryear, according to RCMP data in the report.This month, Richmond RCMP unveiled

its strategic plan for the next two years,citing goals such as increased communityengagement and property crime reduction.The plan noted that over the past decade

calls for service to the detachment have beenreduced from about 50,000 in 2004 to about37,500 in 2013.Property crime, violent crime and traffic

fatalities are also on the decline.However, the plan notes while crime is

down, the “complexity” of policing hasincreased by 52 per cent over the past threeyears.More time and effort must be spent on

pursuing criminals with computer technologyand calls for service related to mental healthand social disorders have escalated.This year Richmond RCMP introduced

an online crime reporting website for lost,damaged or stolen property valued at under$5,000.❚ See full report at Richmond-News.com.

COMMUNITY

After months of anticipation andwatching their dream being built in frontof them, the kids’ eyes opened wide andthey went wild when their new playgroundwas unveiled.The children of the impoverished

Riverton community in Kingston,Jamaica finally got to play on the brand,spanking new adventure equipment attheir community school — all thanks tothe hard work and dedication of Richmondresident Ayako Turnbull and her team fromFundamentals for Change Society (FFC).Turnbull and FFC had been working on

the playground project — raising fundslocally and employing Jamaicans for itsconstruction — for the last year or so, upuntil the unveiling afew weeks ago.“The kids

watched it beingbuilt for severalmonths and werenot allowed to playin it, so they werevery excited,” saidMcMath secondarygrad Turnbull, whotraveled to Jamaica to open the playgroundand to deliver medical supplies alongwith FFC’s Jeff Kuzik, of Richmond, andMeaghan Kyte, of Ladner.“In fact, they went wild when we

officially opened it. They were all over itand loved it.“Before, it was two old swings for about

150 students.”It wasn’t all plain sailing though for

Turnbull who spent a fair chunk of herthree-week stint in Jamaica in and out ofthe government ministry offices tryingto get them to release $4,000 worth ofdonated medical supplies — confiscatedon arrival — to re-stock the Rivertonmedical centre, which was broken intorecently.“There is a chikungunya virus epidemic

down there right now, which producedzombie-like symptoms,” explained

Turnbull.“It’s very painful and the only

medication available is Tylenol down thereand there is money to be made from it.That’s what was stolen during the break-in.“I emailed Jamaican customs before

heading down, to say what we werebringing, but they never replied.“We had donations from Richmond

doctors and from a local company calledOrganika, which gave us 1,000 tubs ofchildren’s and adults’ multi-vitamins.”There was talk of the government just

keeping the supplies, said Turnbull, beforecommon sense prevailed.As well as the medical donations from

the doctors, Richmond Girls SoccerAssociation (RGSA) handed FFC a ton ofjerseys, shorts and soccer balls, all now

proudly sportedby members of theRiverton YouthLeadership Club— which helpsaround the homesof the elderly, withtheir meals andprograms, with nofunding at all.FFC also gave

the leadership club members a bunch ofdisposable cameras when they were downthere, tasking them to go off into theircommunity and take photos of everydaylife.“They brought back some amazing

images, vivid, taken in places we wouldnever have been able to get to; insidepeople’s homes and in the dump (Rivertonsits adjacent to the city dump),” saidTurnbull.“We will show the best of these photos

in a gallery of some sort; we will haveticket sales and liquor sales, we’re going tomake it a black-tie event, with funds goingback to the leadership club, along withprizes for them.”Turnbull is the cofounder of non-profit

FFC, which promotes “positive change ininner-city Jamaican communities throughlocally driven projects.”

British Columbia’senergy minister BillBennett took to the

airwaves the morning afterhis government announced itwill build the Site C dam onthe Peace River near Fort. St.John.

It is a sizable publicinvestment, at close to $9billion.

At capacity, it will generateenough power to provideelectricity for 450,000 homesper year, which will be neededas B.C.’s population growsby another million people,Bennett told the CBC. That’spretty tantalizing when youthink about that same energy

coming from coal or nuclearplants, which bring costly,and perhaps deadly, long-term environmental impacts.

However, there is a morepressing need and that is themassive amount of energyneeded to convert natural gasinto a liquid form for export.

But whether it’s forcharging smartphones orsupporting the province’sadventures in LNG, we haveour doubts about how soon,or even if, this project willproceed. It has cleared theregulatory hurdles, but localFirst Nations and residentsare only just gearing up tofight.

Bennett told the CBC thatthe lawsuits pending by threelocal First Nations are “justsomething you’re going tohave to work through,” whendealing with any large project.

That could be costlyoptimism in the wake of thelandmark Tsilhqot’in Nationsvs. British Columbia rulingin the Supreme Court thissummer, which affirmed FirstNations have title to theirtraditional lands.

Bennett claimedconstruction should beginsometime in the summer of2015.

Thank you, Bill. Weappreciated the laugh.

Plan B absent in Taxpayers Federation diatribeThe Canadian

Taxpayers Federationis a strange beast.

It exists to bash any and allattempts to raise taxes, andto call attention to wastefulgovernment spending. Andsometimes that sends itdown weird rabbit holes of stupidity.Take the recent case of TransLink’s

proposed 0.5 per cent hike of the PST.We’re going to get to vote on this sometimenext spring, in a region-wide referendum.The provincial government will be stayingneutral, but business groups and unions areforming a Yes lobby already. On the Noside are a lot of people who hate TransLinkon principle, and the Taxpayers Federation.TransLink wants the money to expand

transit service, of course. More buses, morelight rail in Surrey and out to Langley,money for bike lanes and pedestrianimprovements.But the Taxpayers Federation reminds us

that TransLink hasn’t always been the best

custodian of cash, calling it“a stunningly bad record ofwaste.”I have no argument with

the fact that TransLink isbadly managed — theirCEO is vastly overpaid forthe job he is doing — or

that it is badly governed. In fact, let’s take amoment to remember some of TransLink’sgreatest hits!Broken down SkyTrains! Blaming

trapped riders for making the problemworse instead of actually fixing thetrains! Overpaid executives! A systemof governance so needlessly complex itwould make the court eunuchs of ancientByzantium weep! Some of the highest paidpolice in the country! And in the big tent,the Compass Card system massively overbudget, behind schedule, hopelessly miredin technological bugs! A big hand, folks,it’s TransLink’s biggest blunder to date!But…The Taxpayers Federation’s position has

two, closely related parts: 1) TransLink iswasteful and generally messed up (true)so 2) we should not give them any moremoney.“Instead of finding efficiencies,

TransLink Mayors want your family to pay$258 more in sales tax every year,” says theTaxpayers Federation’s call to action.The problem is the word “efficiencies.”

They’re implying that we can find enoughmoney to expand transit if we dig intothe couch cushions and maybe fire someexecutive vice-presidents of made up do-nothing jobs.You know what? I’m all for house

cleaning. Hell, I’ll even put some of theTaxpayers Fed guys on a task force! Let’em loose with a dozen meat-fed forensicaccountants hungry for blood. DragVictoria’s legislators kicking and screamingdown here to clean up their mess. Let’s doit now!And from that we’ll save how much?

Maybe $5 million a year? If we’re very,very lucky, maybe we could find $10 or

even $20 million in efficiencies? Nothingto sneeze at, but it’s not enough.We need enough to buy a whole lot

of buses, to pay an expanded roster ofbus drivers, mechanics, cleaners, andmaintenance workers. We need seriouscapital cash to start building more rail lines.Seriously, what’s the alternative?

We are drowning in fast-growing newcommunities, especially South of the Fraserin Surrey and Langley. We planned fortransit, and transit never came. The PortMann expansion has helped, but we’rechoking on local gridlock, and students,the elderly, and the poor have little to nomobility across vast stretches of the LowerMainland.It’s good to have a critical voice when

TransLink is wasting money. But theTaxpayers Federation needs to offer its ownplan. Because right now, it looks like itsimply doesn’t care how, or if, we ever getbetter transit service at all.Matthew Claxton is a reporter with the

CONCUSSIONS

LETTERS

The Editor,Re: “Don’t play head games,” News, Dec.

12.Cody Kusch, the Seafair Board of

Directors, Dr. Virji-Babul and indeed theRichmond News should be commended fortheir innovative program and the informativefeature respectively on concussion detection,diagnosis and treatment.Cody and Seafair are providing precisely

the kind of leadership in working to reducethe public health crisis in traumatic braininjury among youth that one might otherwiseexpect from Hockey Canada or BC Hockey.It is not always easy to go against the

traditions and culture of hockey and theydeserve credit, and our thanks as parents, fortheir courage and hard work in doing so whenit was necessary.Additionally, many parents don’t know

that research from the University of Calgaryrevealed that in body checking leagues injuryrates are three times higher than those in nonbody-checking leagues.The likelihood of getting a concussion in

a league that permits body checking is aboutone in four per season.By contrast, the odds of playing at least one

game in the NHL are about one in 3,000.Removing body-checking from peewee

(age 11-12) leagues now avoids more than13,000 injuries to youth in Canada per year,including hundreds of catastrophic head, neckand back injuries.If similar rule changes are adopted in

bantam and midget rep hockey leagues,the injuries avoided nationally could reach30,000-40,000 in total.It’s compelling evidence for change without

even considering the millions of dollars savedin health care costs that come with it.Registration in boys hockey begins to

decline after age 10. Concussions and otherserious injuries are a factor in kids deciding toleave our game prematurely.Programs like Seafair’s need to be adopted

widely to preserve not only our kid’s healthbut our game as well.

Bill BarrableRichmond

Preserve health,game will follow

Actions speak volumesDear Editor,Education of children

and adults in thedeveloping world is a veryimportant issue for me.This week in Richmond,

children are going toschool with visions ofholiday festivities runningthrough their heads.Not for a minute will

they worry that theirschool might be taken overby a violent militia, thatthey might be kidnapped,or that their whole schoolmight be obliterated in abloody massacre.Yet in a number of

countries, this is the realitythat children face as theyfight for their right to

education.Prime Minister Stephen

Harper has deplored thelatest atrocity in Peshawarand has said that he standsby the people of Pakistan.Actions speak louder

than words.Canada must stand

up for the children ofPakistan and children in allcountries where school isnot a safe place.We can do this by

following through on thepledge Canada made inJune 2014, to contribute aminimum of $120 millionto the Global Partnershipfor Education.The GPE supports

children in developing

countries to go to schooland get a safe education.In honour of the

Pakistani students whohave died, the Nigerianstudents who werekidnapped, and all childrenunable to go to school,let’s do something tochange this.

Keep hangin’ outDear Editor,I am writing today

to advise you that theRichmond Firefighters arehanging around their hallswith nothing to do.The BCAS paramedics

are in the same boat,lounging around theirstations.While the rest of us are

enjoying time with familyand visiting friends, thesepeople are “hanging out”in their halls and stations.Editor, I have good

information that they willbe doing the same thing onChristmas Day while weopen gifts with our kidsand enjoy our Christmasdinner.Honestly, I am glad they

are.When granddad has a

heart attack, or a housecatches on fire, or a childis trapped in a car crash, Iam glad these folks have

nothing better to do thanwait for our call for help.It is easy to poke fun

at folks in uniform, buttake time to think of whatthat uniform and dutytakes from them and theirfamilies.

I would like to wish theRichmond Firefightersand Richmond BCASparamedics a silent night,thanks for being therehanging out.

Letter writer Scott Stewart is thankful guys like the onespictured above from Richmond Fire-Rescue will likely behanging around their firehalls during Christmas and NewYear.

Dear Editor,During Homelessness Action Week in

October the community of Richmond cametogether to support the annual RichmondHomeless Connect — a day for peopleexperiencing homelessness in Richmondto gather and access many services in onelocation.This year approximately 70 people

attended St. AlbanAnglican Church andreceived a pancake breakfast, hot lunchand snack to go, winter clothing, medicalscreening services from local emergencydoctors and medical students, flu shots frompublic health nurses, housing informationfrom CHIMO volunteers, as well asinformation on other services available tothem in the community.Homeless Connect would not happen

without the help and support of many.On behalf of the organizers, the Richmond

Homelessness Coalition, I would like tothank Richmond residents who donated warmclothing and personal care items and thehospital auxiliary thrift store and BroadmoorBaptist church for collecting the donations.Thanks also goes to Richmond Sunrise

Rotary, Gilmore United Church, and CatholicWomen’s League of Canada, St. Paul Parishfor financial donations.We would like to acknowledge and thank

the many volunteers who gave their time tomake sure that our guests received the helpthey were seeking.Richmond has very little in the way of

emergency shelters for people who arehomeless, but when the weather is very coldand wet, extreme weather mats are madeavailable at St. AlbanAnglican Church.For more information, visit

innfromthecold.blogspot.ca/p/home.This shelter has already been open a couple

of times this year and more openings areanticipated in the days to come.As we enjoy the holiday season, please

remember those who are without a homeand make a donation to the extreme weathershelter, in care of St. Alban’s AnglicanChurch.For more information call 604-278-2770.

ARCHIVES

COMMUNITY

By now Richmond’sroad network ispretty much set. Few

new roads are created thesedays — four in 2014 to beprecise — as developmentis confined by protectedfarmland and the FraserRiver, of course.But road names provide

a glimpse into the city’syoung, but interesting,history. It’s a history mostRichmond students don’tlearn about in schools,unless a teacher takes aproactive approach.Gilbert, Blundell and

Williams roads are allnamed after Richmond“pioneers.”Road names may

often be an extensionof a neighbourhood’sgeography or a distinctfeature. The recently pavedRiver Parkway and OvalWay get their names frombeing close to the river andOlympic Oval, respectively.For newbies to the city,you may not know thatRailway Avenue used tohave a railway line runningalongside it.Pretty simple stuff,

although probably not assimple as naming roads bynumbers.Side note: It’s time to

rename the No. 2 RoadBridge.Anyway, the more

interesting road names arethose named after pioneersand historical figures.The new Sweet Avenue

(near Aberdeen Centre) wasnamed in June after OrisonDavis Sweet, a municipalclerk from 1884-1891 whowas one of many to signthe petition to incorporateRichmond in 1879.Apparently, he earned

$175 per year, one of afew facts Bill Purver,the Richmond archivesmanager, was able to dig up.Purver is a valuable

source for Richmond’shistory.

He’s also part of a secretoperation conducted alongwith city councillors toname roads. No joking, thecity keeps about a dozenprospective names underwraps (protected by theFreedom of Informationand Privacy Act) in order toprotect people’s privacy.I tried asking for the list,

but was denied.We can all come up with

our own lists. Halsey-BrandtWay? Brodie Avenue?What about the new

Harold Steves Bridge? (Idon’t think that would flywith Coun. Steves.)Those are recent

politicians. Some ofthe names on the city’ssidewalks we know littleabout. Were they trulygood people? Or were theyRichmond’s version ofrobber barons? Were theykind? Greedy? Racist?We know Sweet was

a founding member ofthe Methodist Church inRichmond, now MinoruChapel.The city named the new

Mannini Way near Ikeabecause Mannini was oneof the first Scandinavian

settlers (see Finn Road onFinn Slough). Although,oddly enough, Manniniwas Finnish, not Swedish,and that’s all we know ofhim. I’d say Finns are goodpeople, for the most part.Sometimes naming streets

has been controversial. TheRiver Rock Casino andResort paid for adjacentroadways so the city namedone of them Great CanadianWay, which is actually justan extension of GardenCity Road, named for

Richmond’s reputation as,well, a city of gardens.Sweden Way highlights its

proximity to Ikea, anothercorporation.The point is, I find it

interesting we have propernames for roads and not

just numbered streets andavenues like Surrey andVancouver.As such, we can learn

about and celebrate thecity’s history — somethingworth exploring for youngstudents.

Street names tell a city’s history

When I was inmedical school,physicians

used a now archaic term todescribe patients who didn’tfollow doctors’ orders:noncompliant. I laugh whenI think about what the oldtime doctors meant. Thepatients didn’t bend to theirwill?In our society, the

authoritarian physician isan icon of the past. Doctors’orders are more likely whatthey’re having for dinnerat White Spot than whatthey’ve instructed theirpatients to do.The patient-doctor

relationship has evolvedinto collaboration. Thoughthe physician may be anexpert on matters medical,patients are experts ontheir own lives and themost appropriate decision-makers.A little better is the term

now in vogue for patientsfollowing through on agreedplans: adherence. Butcalling patients nonadherent

suggests that they didn’tstick to the plan as if theybroke a contract. Thisimplies a judgment and abelief that deviance from thegoal is solely the patient’sfault.I have a better word

for patients who aresuccessfully achieving theirgoals: engaged. If a patientreturns for a follow-upvisit not having achieved agoal to eat healthier meals,quit smoking or begin anexercise program, thatpatient isn’t noncompliant ornonadherent. The patient isnot engaged.The patient may have

become disengaged fromtheir goals by unexpectedroad blocks — an injurywhile exercising, afamily emergency orother obstacles, some

unpredictable but others thatmay have been anticipated.They may also become

disengaged when they arenot adequately prepared andsupported.They may never have

been engaged in the firstplace if they did not choosetheir own goals.The keys to successful

self-care and self-improvement are personallychosen goals that matterto you, the anticipation ofpotential obstacles, andcollaborative planning andsupport.Recognizing that much

of the medical informationin the media (in print,online, on television andradio) is commercialized,sensationalized, biased andincomplete, the FamilyDoctors of Burnaby havelaunched a public healtheducation program to raisehealth literacy.Dr. Davidicus Wong

is physician lead of theBurnaby Division of FamilyPractice.

Following doc’s orders Generosity aboundsFor the third year in

a row, Canadianshave been more

philanthropic than theyear previous. Accordingto the most recent BMOCharitable Giving Poll,84 per cent of Canadiansmade a charitable donationin the past 12 months withthe average gift being $624— an increase of 8 per centfrom 2013.And, Canadians want

this generosity to continueits upward trend. Whenasked about their 2015plans, 90 per cent expectto make donations totaling$720. Interestingly, manyalso use their philanthropyas a teaching tool.Another 2014 survey,

commissioned by ImagineCanada, examined bothgenerosity and attitudesabout charitable donations.It found that one-thirdof donors wanted to setan example for theirchildren or others about theimportance of giving back.While these data all bode

well for the less fortunate,giving can also help thecharitable organizationsand donors. Cash donationsare still the most popularway of giving, but bothcharity and donor canbenefit from more taxefficient ways of achievingtheir philanthropic goals.Gifting publicly listed

securities, such as stocks,bonds, and mutual fundsto registered charities isone way. A donor who sellsthe shares of appreciatedsecurities, and donatesthe cash, is taxed oncapital gains. However,if the shares are donateddirectly, the charity issuesa tax receipt based on thefair market value of thesecurities. The charity getsthe full value of the sharesand the donor gets a full

value tax credit without theimposition of capital gainstaxes.Efficient philanthropy is

also achievable with RSPs,where the donor names acharity as beneficiary oftheir registered plan. Ondeath, the balance of theplan transfers directly tothe charity, and the estatereceives a tax credit for thevalue on disposition. Thiscan offset taxes on finalincome and effectivelybypass probate fees.Similarly, insurance

can be used with a charitynamed as beneficiary.When the donor passes, thecharity receives the policy’scash surrender value plusany net accumulateddividends and interest. Theresulting tax credit can beapplied to a final tax return.Kim Inglis is an

RIDE ON!

A group of Santa’s ‘elves’ came with their wrenches and screwdrivers to help assemble close to 50 new bikes for deserving local girls and boys at Richmond Youth Service Agency (RYSA)on Dec. 19 as PinkBike and TrailForks — websites for mountain bike enthusiasts — focused their Share the Ride Campaign on Richmond this Christmas. Children receiving bikes werenominated through community professionals, including teachers, counsellors and youth workers. Money raised by PinkBike and TrailForks, plus local businesses — Richmond Honda,Vancity, Sunrise Rotary and RBC Dominion Securities – helped purchase the new rides which were put together by bike mechanics from around Metro Vancouver who finished theirjob by placing a Share the Ride Campaign sticker on the frame of each bike.

MARRAKECH

Where Yves Saint Laurent found inspiration

MARRAKECH—Marrakech taxis aregreenhouses on wheels and stepping outof one at the gate of the Jardin Majorelleinto blinding sunshine brings little relief.But beyond the gate of one of the city’smost celebrated gardens the light becomesdappled, the air becomes cool and moist, andthe temperature seems to drop ten degrees.It’s an inner-city oasis.The garden was founded by the French

painter Jacques Majorelle (1886-1962) whoacquired the first parcelof land in 1924 andexpanded it with furtherpurchases until the costof its maintenance forcedhim to open it to thepublic in 1947.He planted hundreds

of rare varieties of cacti,palms, willows and muchmore, carefully arrangedalong snaking paths andbeside a long, straightwater channel whoseedges he painted a richcobalt blue, a colour that came to be knownas “bleu Majorelle.”The channel leads the eye through dense

thickets of feathery bamboo to fountains,a pond laden with lily pads, and to an evenbigger surprise — an angular 1930s Cubistmansion in the same brilliant blue, startlinglyout of place in a largely blank-walled ochrecity. This was the artist’s studio.Getting there involves taking a choice of

winding, red-painted pathways past blue andyellow pots, past rampant jasmines and greatcascades of gaudy bougainvillea. It’s likewalking through a Matisse landscape.After Majorelle’s death the garden became

neglected, and was doomed to redevelopmentas a hotel complex, but was saved at thelast minute by fashion superstar Yves SaintLaurent and his partner. They renovated thestudio, replanted the gardens and made itonce again busy with gardeners.In the artist’s studio, they arranged a

further surprise, creating from their own

private collection what is now the Muséeberbère—a small but beautifully presentedexhibition of the crafts of some of Africa’soldest tribes.Their distinctive hanbel—woven rugs in

the deep blues and burnt oranges Majorellehimself admired — are still produced in theHigh Atlas Mountains, and widely availablein Marrakech’s labyrinthine souks. But hereare the smaller-scale, everyday objects madeprecious by craftsmanship: ornately carvedboxes for keeping kohl, curved daggerscovered in geometric designs and fabulouslyintricate woven baskets.

Itinerant silversmithscreated jewelleryabuzz with detail frommultiple techniques:chiselling, filigreework, enamelling,engraving and settingwith constellationsof contrasting semi-precious stones.Complex, multi-layeredchest pieces and headdecorations also serveto demonstrate tribalorigins, are believed to

have medicinal properties, and provide ameans to preserve savings—flashing ratherthan stashing. Displays of gaudy costumesshow the variety of tribes from the mountainsto the Sahara.Yves Saint Laurent so loved this place,

which he claimed to be a source of muchinspiration, that after his death in 2008 hisashes were scattered here. A final unexpectedattraction is a snapped-off pillar to one sideof the garden, a memorial to the late designer,whose surviving partner has now donatedgarden and villa to a foundation that willensure it offers relief to sun-baked visitors forthe foreseeable future.ACCESSFor more information on the Jardin

Majorelle and the Musée berbère visit itswebsite at www.jardinmajorelle.com.For information on travel in Morocco visit
