Coast to coast fitness

MICHAELA GARSTINS T A F F R E P O R T E R

People living on the North Shore are lucky to have hiking and bike trails, the ocean and plenty of walking paths all within minutes of their homes.

That’s a message John Weston, MP for West Vancouver-Sunshine Coast-Sea to Sky Country, is trying to get across with “National Health and Fitness Day,” a private member’s bill that would dedi-cated the first Saturday in June to making Canadians more fit and healthy.

“We have a unique vantage point based on where we live,” Weston told The Outlook, adding that he regularly gets outdoors to exercise, be it running, swimming or biking. “I rode up Cypress yesterday — great mountain ride. I felt so grateful to be in this part of the world.”

The bill would promote healthy living by encouraging recreation-al facilities to open for free on National Fitness Day.

Weston hopes this will help reverse Canada’s growing trend of inactivity, which cost $4.3 billion last year for health care relating to diabetes, cardiovascular problems and other related problems.

“We should be aiming to be the fittest nation on Earth,” said Weston, adding that all 12 municipalities in his riding have endorsed the bill.

How does Weston suggest North Shore residents get active? ■ Join a running group: The North Shore has running groups

for all skill levels, from beginners to seniors to those who are train-ing for ultra-marathons. The Capilano Eagles Running Club, for example, meets every Tuesday to run training routes in Edgemont Village, Pemberton Heights and Handsworth secondary school area.

■ Go to the gym: Joining a fitness club can be an easy way to get motivated and stay with a workout routine. North Shore com-munity centers have small, casual groups to join, such as West Van Community Centre’s Fit-fellows, a group just for men. Members range from 55 to 94 years old.

■ Get in the water: The West Van Aquatic Centre is “one of the loveliest you’ll find,” said Weston, adding that swimming is one of the best ways to get in shape. North Van also has places to swim, including a wave pool at Karen Magnussen Rec Centre.

■ Enjoy the trails: The North Shore Spirit Trail, which will eventually connect Deep Cove to Horseshoe Bay, is one of Weston’s favourite places to ride his bike and walk. He also suggests head-ing out on one of the mountain trails in North and West Van.

West Vancouver Board of Education

Taking Action October 2012

Facility EnhancementSchool District facilities staff work “behind the scenes” year-round improving our buildings and grounds - making them enjoyable places to teach and learn. Recent exterior projects include install-ing new school signs and carvings as well as play court and playground resurfacing. Inside our buildings, they’ve completed millwork, painting, plumbing and modernization projects.

World Teacher’s Day – October 5We would like to take this opportunity to honour the exceptional teachers we have in the West Vancouver School District. Our students enjoy an enriched learning experience thanks to their passion and professionalism. Teaching from the heart, they build meaningful relationships with our students and their families. Let’s celebrate teachers on October 5th, and always, for their vital role in educating future generations.

A Vision For LearningIt is with great pride and anticipation that the West Vancouver Board of Education has approved its Strategic Plan for 2012-2015. This important document has been in development for many months and we thank all of you who provided input.

We are now moving forward with your ideas and building on our solid foundation to ensure the future success of all students attending our schools in West Vancouver, Bowen Island and Lions Bay.

Our vision is clear: “We aspire to provide the finest educational experience in the country – for the benefit of our children, our employees, our community and our world.”

Our values are many and they include respect, inclusiveness, engagement, responsibility, transpar-ency, and joy; yes that’s right…we try to infuse our district’s work with fun and joy!

We have three key areas of focus:

First and foremost, we achieve educational excellence through collaboration, engagement and innova-tion. We work tirelessly to deliver the services necessary to provide an enriched learning experience for our student. We want every child to develop a lifelong love of learning, to be socially responsible and to be globally aware.

Secondly, we ensure system sustainability. We attract exceptional teachers, administrators and support staff to provide progressive programming for our students. We also update our facilities and teaching tools to keep our infrastructure modern and accessible.

Lastly, we continue to cultivate community connections. We know there are all kinds of opportunities to enhance learning and we encourage staff and students to seek them out. We also share our academ-ic, artistic, and athletic accomplishments with all of you.

We believe our vision for learning will allow us to grow and expand upon the strong tradition of educational excellence in the West Vancouver School District – “the premier place for learning.”

Sincerely,

WHAT’S NEW

Civic leaders urge province to fight oil pipeline projects

JEFF NAGELB L A C K P R E S S

B.C. civic leaders voted by a razor-thin margin Thursday to oppose oil pipeline projects

that would expand tanker traffic in coastal waters.

The resolution passed in a nearly split electronic vote at the Union of B.C. Municipalities convention with 51.3 per cent of delegates in favour and 48.7 per cent opposed.

“We rely solely and wholely upon the oceans for its many resourc-es,” said Skeena-Queen Charlotte regional district director Des Nobles, one of several delegates who said the risks of B.C. carrying more oil to the Pacific far outweigh the benefits.

Others cited the higher cost and challenge of cleaning up a spill of heavy bitumen crude oil and Canada’s insufficient spill-response capability.

“Communities in the interior of B.C. and on the coast can survive and thrive without this pipeline,” said Victoria Coun. Ben Isitt. “I’m not convinced smaller communities and even large ones can thrive in the face of a catastrophic oil spill.”

Opponents of the resolution cited the damaging signal it would send of B.C.’s openness to business

before environmental reviews are complete.

Enbridge is in a joint review process on its proposed Northern Gateway bitumen pipeline to Kitimat, while Kinder Morgan is in an earlier stage of its plans to expand its existing Trans Mountain oil pipeline from northern Alberta to Burnaby.

“The oil in Canada is going to come out of the ground and it’s going to find its way to market,” said Prince George Mayor Shari Green, who opposed the resolution.

She said Alberta oil sands crude might flow to tidewater through Alaska or Washington State instead of B.C.

Kinder Morgan already has a branch of its Trans Mountain oil pipeline that also reaches the coast in Washington State at Cherry Point, where some of the flow is refined.

“Tsunami debris is already arriv-ing on our shorelines,” Green said. “So would oil from our neighbours should there be an accident.”

The resolution advanced by Saanich council requires UBCM to “oppose projects that would lead to the expansion of oil tanker traffic through B.C.’s coastal waters” and urges provincial government lead-ers to fight it by any legislative and administrative means available.

The grape adventure New website dedicated to wine-tasting road trips and tips

MICHAELA GARSTINS t A f f W r I t E r

When John McLaughlin, a.k.a. “the

wineo,” and Taylor Van Vliet, “the rook-ie,” set off to explore Washington State’s often overlooked wine region, they had one goal in mind: to create a non-pretentious web-site to follow their jour-ney and answer simple wine-related questions.

They spent two weeks hopping from vineyard to vineyard, filming conversa-tions with winemakers and uploading movies every eve-ning to their website grape-hwy.com.

“There are a lot of people who go to the liquor store and pick a wine because of its label, but there’s so much more to it. We’re teaching people more about wine in a fun, non-pretentious way,” McLaughlin, who lives in North Vancouver, tells The Outlook at a coffee shop on Lonsdale Avenue.

Their website’s quick films (most are less than two min-utes) answer basic questions about wine, including: What’s a dry wine? How is wine made? and What is corked wine?

Unlike McLaughlin “the wineo,” who works in the wine retail industry and briefly made le vin in Australia, Van Viet is a wine enthusiast in training.

“A lot of people can relate to me. We’re just getting started learning about wine, asking the same questions,” he says, adding they want to turn the website into a go-to resource for wine and wine tourism. With the

Washington State’s wine region trek already online, they hope to get sponsor-ship from tourism boards and wine accessory brands.

After a test-run in B.C., they crossed the border last month. Compared to California’s vast wine region, Washington State is a small

player that deserves attention nonethe-less, says McLaughlin.

“Vines in Washington

are only about 30 or 40 years old at the oldest, but there is a tremendous knowledge base,” he says. “They contract international wine makers from Italy, France, Canada and Australia.”

What’s next for “the wineo” and “the rookie”?

They are expanding grape-hwy.com to include a section that links vineyards together so tourists can easily plan their trips and upload their own footage. After that, they’ll be exploring new wine regions, which might include their dream trip to Italy’s famous Tuscany region.

Visit grapehwy.com for more info and for links to their Facebook and Twitter pages.

A way with wax

“English tea party meets grand-ma’s house” isn’t what usually comes to mind when stepping

into a waxing salon. But it suits Cutie Pie Wax Bar — think tiny teacups, pink flowered wallpaper and vintage chairs — perfectly.

These added touches, including over-head TVs playing chick flicks, help cus-tomers feel relaxed, says owner Lindsay Brown, who held the grand opening of her second Cutie Pie location on the North Shore last week.

“We take what can be an uncomfortable situation and make it more enjoy-able and fun,” she tells The Outlook on a tour of the wax bar.

“We just do waxing, so

we focus on one thing and we do it well.”Most of Brown’s customers come in for

a Brazilian (dare to go bare), but French and bikini waxes are offered too. Men, however, shouldn’t feel left out — Bro-zilians and Mankinis are also on the list.

Another hot trend is Vajazzling, says Brown, adding the sparkling glitter or rhinestone designs “are fun, not taken too seriously” and perfect for holidays like Halloween, Christmas and especially Valentine’s Day.

First the customer pics a stencil – like a cat, ghost or witch’s hat — then it’s filled in with glue and one or two of 30 different colours of glitter. Again, guys shouldn’t feel neglected

Fall season is upon us and events are in full swing. First up, a unique West

Vancouver event spearheaded by West Vancouver Chamber VP Jason Black. Held at the Tap House in Park Royal, this networking event was targeted for the Under 35 business mind. Featuring Vancouver Canucks VP Michael Doyle, the new Face 2 Face program promises to deliver high profile keynote speakers as well as a chance to socialize with fellow young entrepreneurs. Next, West Vancouver’s most famous resident, Sarah McLachlan, turned the spotlight towards her School of Music students in a heartwarming ceremony that featured a special cheque presentation by HSBC. Hot off the stage at her Voices in the Park concert earlier this month, the charitable chanteuse was on hand to receive the $300,000 donation on behalf of her talented students who then thanked the audience with a live performance.

1 U35 Networking gals Megan Sewell, left, of Sewell’s Marine fame, Leah Costello, of the Bon Mot Book Club and Virginia Bird, of Pottinger and Associates, attend the first inaugural event. 2 Enjoying conversation and more are U35 Networking guests Duncan Joseph, left, Anthony Jackson, Michael Mullin and Cam Sherk. 3 Breaking ground in a new direction for U35 business leaders are The Great Canadian Landscaping Company’s Chris

O’Donohue, left, WV Chamber VP Jason Black, Village Tap House manager Colin Denton and Cypress Mountain’s Joffrey Koeman. 4 Canucks VP Michael Doyle may have left his skates at home, but he was more than happy to be the evening’s keynote speaker at the U35 Networking event. 5 Sarah McLachlan School of Music students are all smiles as Sarah herself receives the

HSBC cheque for $300,000 on their behalf. 6 Sarah McLachlan School of Music’s director of philanthropy Stephani Samaridis, left, and executive director Ann de la Hey attend the HSBC cheque presentation. 7 Ernest Yee, vice president HSBC Canada, left, and Lindsay Gordon, president and CEO HSBC Canada are happy to be in attendance and to support this amazing school of music.

What’s the solution to the North Shore’s growing gridlock?

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

In the evening rush-hour crawl up the north approach of the Lions Gate Bridge, a West Vancouver traffic cop can

tag and ticket a delinquent driver in the bus lane about every six minutes.

So says Cpl. Grant Gottgetreu of the West Van police traffic section.

“Personally I can average about ten an hour there,” he says, noting that seatbelt scofflaws and distracted drivers also find their way into the mix.

Of course, when catching lane cheats try-ing to jump a 50-minute queue, the point isn’t to quickly lighten pockets and hurry them on their way. It makes more sense to rein in a herd of highway hoodlums before putting pen to pad.

“Generally, they have no excuse,” Gottgetreu tells The Outlook. “A lot of them are by themselves and they just don’t want to wait in traffic. They’re rolling the dice

and hoping we’re not there — and we’re not always there.”

With more than 62,000 cars and trucks pouring across the Lions Gate Bridge on an average weekday last summer — 10,000 of those in the evening rush between 4 and 6 p.m. — a First Narrows commute, in all its zipper-merging, direction-changing, three-laned glory is a daily source of frustration for many — twice daily for others.

So when Gottgetreu and his squad head out to catch the habitual lane jumper, they sympathize first and foremost with all the other drivers who play by the rules, patiently waiting their turn as others answer the beckoning call of the empty bus lane.

“We always get the thumbs-up,” he says, referring to the approval of those patient drivers who eventually, happily, roll by that pulled-over new model import or pickup that seemingly ages ago screamed by in the bus lane.

“The true traffic bottleneck is the Lions Gate Bridge, and Taylor Way at Marine Drive all the way along Marine Drive,” Gottgetreu says. “That area is the biggest chokepoint in town bar none.”

“It’s the same nightmare it’s always been,” Gottgetreu says of his 12 years working traffic in West Van.

But ask a North Shore municipal engineer and they’ll tell you worsening traffic is all about perspective.

“There’s a certain segment of the population that feels traf-fic is too slow and they wish to move faster,” says West Vancouver’s director of engi-neering and transportation, Ray Fung. “And there’s another portion which feels traffic is moving too fast… and so they advocate for things like traffic calming through our streets and neighbourhoods.”

But at the North Shore’s three entry and exit points — the Sea-to-Sky Highway, the Lions Gate Bridge and the Second Narrows; all of which are highways controlled by the provincial transportation minis-try — more vehicles than resi-dents come and go through the North Shore every day.

In addition to the 62,000 vehicles the ministry says cross the Lions Gate Bridge on a typical weekday, about 13,000 pass through Lions Bay on the Sea-to-Sky Highway — up to 16,000 on weekends — and approximately 125,000 cross the Ironworkers Bridge at the Second Narrows.

That’s 200,000 vehicle trips through a maximum 13 lanes of traffic, with no alter-nate routes. Add to that the 293,000 daily commuter trips that don’t leave the North Shore and it’s clear why all three North Shore municipalities are increasingly eager to get people out of their cars.

The District of North Vancouver’s Official Community Plan boasts a 2030 target of ensuring 35 per cent of all resident trips in the district happen by walking, cycling or transit, not personal automobiles. That’s up from the current 21 per cent. To do so, the district is beginning to densify around its network of community centres — sepa-rate nodes of pedestrian-friendly mixed-use development, all connected by transit and cycling lanes.

In North Van city, the densification is already underway. With more than 175,000 people already on the North Shore, the pop-ulation is expected to grow by 40,000 over the next 20 years, much of it taking up resi-dence in the city. And with a road network that is already “built-out” to its maximum capacity, according to city engineer Doug Pope, prioritizing transit and cycling on the city’s roads is a must to avoid gridlock.

“An example of that would be putting bus bulges along Lonsdale [Avenue] and improvements to bus stops,” Pope said, not-ing two measures that allow buses to leave and rejoin the normal flow of traffic with-out holding up vehicles behind them.

In the latest TransLink study of the North Shore released last year, the regional transit provider, with the cooperation of all three North Shore municipalities, laid out a vision for the future of transit on the North Shore.

The study emphasizes a kind of rapid-bus “cross” of corridors through all three munic-ipalities along Marine Drive and then down Lonsdale Avenue and over the Burrard Inlet.

“From Ambleside in the west to Lower Lynn town centre in the east, that is the east-west route that all three municipali-ties including — district of West Van, dis-trict of North Van and the city — has envi-sioned as the growth area,” says Dragana Mitic, city transportation manager. “And the other rapid transit corridor identified is across the Burrard Inlet, which is SeaBus, and following up Lonsdale towards 29th Street.”

Municipal planners also have high hopes

will only last a year or twoat best, before they degradeand don’t flower anymore.So storing hybrid tulips forreplanting is not always thebest idea, but some varietieswill last a couple of years ifgiven enough time to retracttheir green energy to buildup the bulb before storage.Daffodils, crocus, speciestulips, alliums and lilies can beplanted once and left in theground to multiply and live inthe garden for many years.

Almost everyonerecommends including bonemeal and fertilizer whenplanting spring-floweringbulbs. I do not agree.Contrary to popular myth,fertilizing bulbs when theyare planted in fall is somewhatuseless since the bulbs do nothave any roots to take up thefertilizer and much of thefertilizer is lost to leachingbefore rooting occurs. Bonemeal is also unnecessary if youhave reasonable soil, if youuse compost or manure or ifyou have applied bone meal tothe soil in the last five years.If you have a low fertility soilthat has never been amendedwith organic matter, then asmall amount of bone mealand some dolomite lime willhelp. However, bone meal

and chemical fertilizers cannotimprove drainage, aeration,crumb formation and micro-organism health in the soil, thetrue engine of soil fertility.

The best spring-floweringbulbs beds I have seen aredug deep and amended withorganic matter every coupleof years, limed with dolomite

every five years or so andmulched thick with barkmulch or wood chips to keepthe squirrels away.

Smoke alarms save lives

As most Canadians turn back the clocks on November 4, here are some timely smoke and carbon monoxide (CO) safety tips:

• When you change your clocks, test your smoke arlarm.

• You have less than three minutes to escape a fire. So when smoke alarms sound, everyone must know what to do and where to go. Having and practising an escape plan is essential.

• Install one smoke alarm on every storey and outside bedrooms. Install inside bedrooms if you sleep with doors closed.

• Ensure all smoke alarms are fully powered. Never take out batteries or remove an alarm from ceiling due to a false alarm.

• If your home has any fuel-burning devices such as a gas furnace, gas water heater, gas appliances, or an attached ga-rage or carport, install at least one CSA-approved carbon monoxide outside all sleep-ing areas. One per storey is recommended.

• Replace smoke alarms every 10 years, and CO alarms every 7-10 years (depending on manufacturer) whether bat-tery operated or hardwired into your home’s electrical system.

Carbon monoxide is colourless, odourless and tasteless. So without a CO alarm, humans cannot detect its presence. Despite the average home hav-ing several potential sources of the deadly gas, studies show that nearly 60 per cent of Canadians have not installed a CO alarm. In addition to being impossible to detect, CO also has another nefari-ous trait. Symptoms of carbon monoxide exposure mimic the flu, without the fever. It is routinely responsible for thou-sands of clinic and hospital vis-its each year, and is commonly misdiagnosed. Prolonged or extreme exposure causes nau-sea, dizziness, confusion, the loss of physical mobility, brain damage and ultimately, death.

More home safety resources can be found on the www.safeathome.ca web site.

Only a working smoke alarm can save your life!Fire Prevention Week oct. 7-14

“Fall back” to smart home safety

Thanksgiving turkey fires cause for concern at 9-1-1 centreE -Comm’s fire dispatch team is warning families to be mindful of their turkey cooking during Thanksgiving weekend. “A turkey isn’t something you typically see on a list of household fire hazards, but we get 9-1-1 calls about ovens going up in flames all the time,” says Corey Kelso, E-Comm fire dispatcher. “The result can be devastat-ing if you’re not careful every time you have something cooking for an extended period of time.”

E-Comm has received some odd calls to 9-1-1 before – including someone wanting to know how long to cook a turkey – but a turkey fire is no joke. In fact, it is a lead-ing cause of spikes in 9-1-1 calls over the holidays.

“A flame in your oven can start easily and escalate quickly,” says Kelso. “Oil drippings through a thin tinfoil turkey pan or bits of left-over food residue inside your oven are extremely flammable in a high temperature setting.”

Analysis was undertaken on almost 50,000 fires that occurred in Alberta, British Columbia, and Ontario over a 5-year period involving 663 fatalities. The findings demonstrated that the death rate per 1,000 fires in the absence of a present, functioning smoke alarm was 74% greater than when a functioning smoke alarm was present.

Thanks to BC’s Firefighters for all the lives they have saved.

Many fatal fires start at night

Six priorities of protection

Investigations into home fire deaths very often find that a smoke alarm did not sound. It may have been disconnected or not in working order. The batteries may have been dead, or someone may have taken them out.

Smoke alone won’t necessarily wake you up. In fact, the fumes could put you into an even deeper sleep. Often, victims never wake up.

Seniors will often need assistance from family

members to put safety measures into place. As well, family members are in the best position to reinforce the precautions necessary to help their loved ones prevent or respond to a fire.

Focus on the six priorities listed below to help aging family members protect themselves against fire in the home.

■ INSTALL smoke alarms inside every bedroom, outside each sleeping area and on every level of the home, including the basement.

■ Larger homes may need ADDITIONAL smoke alarms to provide enough protection.

■ For the best protection, INTERCONNECT all smoke alarms so when one sounds they all sound.

■ An IONIZATION smoke alarm is generally more responsive to flaming fires and a PHOTOELECTRIC smoke alarm is generally

more responsive to smoldering fires. For the best protection, both types of alarms or combination ionization and photoelectric alarms (also known as dual sensor alarms) are recommended.

■ Smoke alarms should be INSTALLED away from the kitchen to prevent false alarms. Generally, they should be at least 10 feet (3 meters) from a cooking appliance.

■ REPLACE all smoke alarms when they are 10 years old.

Only a working smoke alarm can save your life!

MICHAELA GARSTINS t A f f R E p o R t E R

Selwyn Pullan’s personality is like the houses he took photos of – direct and to the point,

but with something deeper, more complex underneath.

Although he doesn’t say much about himself, his long career as a photographer is worth talking about.

A new kind of architecture was appearing on the North Shore in the 1950s and ’60s. Gone were any ornate details or living areas with-out purpose, and in their place popped up post-and-beam construc-tion with sleek lines that show-cased North and West Vancouver’s rugged natural setting.

At the forefront of this new style – dubbed West Coast Modernism – stood Pullan, who took photos of the exteriors and interiors of hous-es throughout Vancouver for maga-zines, helping to spread the trend across North America.

As it turns out, it’s a good thing he did, because many of these uniquely functional homes have been torn down, replaced by the larger houses with more bedrooms and bathrooms favoured by today’s families.

“A good design fits the people who live there and the landscape. Now they fill the whole lot with a build-

ing that’s just a building,” Pullan tells The

Outlook inside his studio adjacent to his house in North Van. His work space with floor-to-ceiling windows and a high ceiling lets in a lot of natural light, which Pullan says is vital for proper photography. It was designed in the 1960s by Fred Hollingsworth, a leading West Coast Modernist architect and life-long friend.

Pullan’s photography skills were sought after because he knew exact-ly how to present houses, accord-ing to architects, by showing off the straight lines and expansive win-

dows that enhanced the landscape instead of working against it.

Asked why his photos were so popular (his work appeared in Western Homes and Living, Maclean’s and the New York Times, to name a few), Pullan has a sim-pler answer: “I gave them what I thought they needed, and it worked for them.”

He says he isn’t being modest, however, just saying it like it is, in his usual style.

Selwyn Pullan’s iconic photos of mid-century North Shore homes are on display at the West Vancouver Museum

Painter Robert BatemanSubmitted photo

Robert Bateman, among the participants in Artists for Conservation Festival at Grouse Mountain, has some advice for parents

MARTHA PERKINSB l A c k P R e s s

When Robert Bateman was a child, every Sunday morning his fam-ily would go to church and every

Sunday afternoon they’d go for a hike. Although his parents weren’t naturalists, those hikes — and summers at the cottage — made him aware of the natural world around him. And the more aware he became, the more he fell in love with nature.

Six decades later, as one of Canada’s fore-most nature artists, he challenges parents to take a hike. Once a week, he wants them to take turns taking their kids, and their kids’ friends and their kids’ friends’ parents for a walk in Stanley Park, or along a North Shore mountain, or any park where there’s greenery and wildlife. And when they’re on the hike, he wants everyone to turn off their smartphones and iPods.

“There’s an alarming mass of young people who don’t go outside at all to play,” he says during a telephone interview from his home in Victoria.

Young people’s addiction to computer games and television is reinforced by a gen-eration of parents whose fear the outdoors because of the imagined dangers that lurk there. “Most bad guys who hurt children are already known by the child. There are hardly any dangers outside the home but lots of dan-gers inside the home.”

From Oct. 13 to 23, Bateman will join 80 artists from around world for the Artists for

Conservation Festival. He’s including an oil painting he did of an endangered amur leop-ard exclusively for the event.

There will also be workshops, guest lec-tures, live painting demonstrations and the world premiere of a short film about Simon Combes, a wildlife painter who fought to con-serve endangered species in Africa. He was killed by a charging Cape buffalo in 2004.

The event is “delightful for artists,” says Bateman. “It’s a gathering of the clans.”

The festival is organized by “environmental impresario” Jeff Whiting, a Vancouver-based artist and entrepreneur. “It’s a rare opportu-nity for the public to personally meet some of the most inspiring and talented artists from around the world. It’s also an incred-ible opportunity for art collectors to discover talent and acquire some impressive artwork, while supporting conservation,” Whiting says.

For Bateman, Whiting represents the flip side of a generation cut off from nature. Whiting’s one of the young people who strongly advocates for nature and works hard to protect it.

“At the same time I’m describing kids who are amusing themselves to death. I’ve never known more fantastic kids who are making a difference and helping the world be a better place,” Bateman says.

Ironically, although Bateman encourages young children to be exposed to nature, he thinks schools and parents should be wary of teaching them too much about the threats to our natural world. It’s only adults who, by the people they elect, can do something about threats such as global warning.

“All kids can do is worry,” he says. Instead, let them fall in love with the beauties and mysteries of living things “and all else will follow.”

with Bro-jazzling available as well. Waxing has been on Brown’s mind since she

started in the beauty industry. After working overseas for five years, she quickly realized it can be a “nightmare” to find a reliable waxing salon.

So to help fix the problem, she opened Cutie Pie’s first location in West Van last summer. After realizing many of her customers drove all the way from North Van, she opened a sec-ond, much larger salon to fill the void on the other side of the North Shore.

The key to running a successful wax bar is to ensure customers feel at ease with their treatment, says Brown. “We’re clean freaks. Everything is disposable, so no double dipping with wax strips.”

So how much does it really hurt? Around 80 per cent of people rate it a three or four, on a 10-point scale, where 10 is the most pain-ful, says Brown. But despite numbing gel and taking the recommended aspirin half an hour before, she adds, a very small number of peo-ple find waxing excruciating.

Despite all the pain, why has the Brazilian become so popular? Brown credits the TV series Sex and the City with starting the craze in New York in the mid-90s.

“One episode sprung Brazilians into the mainstream, and it took off from there.”

Cutie Pie Wax Bar is located at 112-223 Mountain Hwy in North Van and 15-636 Clyde Ave. in West Van. For more info, visit cutiepiewaxbar.com.

Taking professional photos 60 years ago required much more training and talent than it does today. Pullan worked during the time of darkrooms and film, and when taking colour photos was a tricky job.

“Colour was a very unfor-giving process,” says Pullan, whose photos were mostly taken in black and white for this reason.

His photography career started when he received a grant from the Department of Veterans Affairs after being discharged from service in 1945. He enrolled at the Art Centre School in Los Angeles, where he had the opportunity to study the best state-of-the-art techniques for two years.

After school, he moved to Halifax to take photos for a local newspaper before return-ing to Vancouver, where he took a job at Western Homes and Living. He was soon hired by lead-ing West Coast archi-tects, including Ned Pratt, Arthur Erickson, Berry Downs and Hollingsworth, the architect who eventu-ally became his friend.

“He is very fussy, and yet he doesn’t give you any inconvenience. He comes to photograph a building and it’s almost lightning fast, and yet you get great pictures,” Hollingsworth told Kiriko Watanabe, assis-tant curator for the West Van Museum, for the new book Selwyn Pullan: Photographing Mid-Century West Coast Modernism.

“There’s a lot of pho-tographers that photo-graph architecture, but very few that can see it from the point of view of the architect who did the building. Selwyn’s always been able to do that,” Hollingsworth continued.

Often people living in the homes photographed by Pullan don’t realize their historical importance, says Kiriko, add-ing many homes that haven’t been torn down are renovated beyond recognition.

Asked whether the disap-pearance of mid-century West Coast homes upsets him, Pullan says: “Yes and no. Some of them, I’m sad to see them go, and what they put up in their place can be even more sad.” He says this with a smile on his face, a break from his otherwise serious demeanor.

“My father was a mechani-cal engineer, and he said if it’s designed well, it should look good,” Pullan says, add-ing a kitchen, a few bedrooms and a tiny bathroom used to work well for people, but today, unfortunately, homeowners feel the need to build monster houses.

Pullan still takes photos, but with a digital camera, which he confesses is more “handy” than the cameras he used to take his iconic photos. His stu-dio still has a darkroom, but instead of strips of film, it now has a computer and printer.

“It has everything a dark-room needs to have, that’s it,” says Pullan, again in his usual frank, matter-of-fact tone.

Pullan’s work is on dis-play at the West Vancouver Museum from Oct. 10 to Dec. 15. The opening reception and book launch is being held on Oct. 9 at 7 p.m. The museum is also hosting receptions at key mid-century West Coast style homes on the North Shore throughout November.

that once completed and fully connected to transit hubs like Lonsdale Quay, the North Shore Spirit Trail will shift from its primar-ily recreational use today, to a vital east-west commuter corridor for cyclists and walkers along the North Shore waterfront.

****As far as getting off the waterfront is con-

cerned, any real talk of tunnels under the inlet or new ferry routes to Vancouver’s West Side — all of which have been thrown around in decades past — are all but dead in the water for the foreseeable future.

“Improving transit over the bridges as a way to get more people over the bridges with-out more vehicles” is the real priority for the near future, says North Vancouver district transportation manager Erica Geddes.

“They’re pretty close to capacity on vehicles but they could take more people,” she adds, pointing to a recent TransLink study that estimates that while buses make up between one to two per cent of the vehicles on the Lions Gate Bridge, they carry 25 per cent of the people crossing it.

Likewise, city staff say they’ve had high-lev-el discussions with TransLink about one day extending the Canada Line under the inlet to Lonsdale Quay, but no such plans have ever been a part of TransLink’s stated vision, which currently extends out as far as 2040.

“Canada Line will be just an expansion fur-ther in the future,” Mitich says.

In the meantime, the hope is for a third SeaBus to increase the frequency of trips, but even that idea hasn’t received much attention since the Vancouver Olympics, when it was employed to handle the flood of tourists to the North Shore, then cancelled shortly thereaf-ter.

It’s not just near the bridges at rush hour when traffic is a problem either. According to a July 2011 TransLink study, the North Shore has Metro Vancouver’s highest mid-day traffic volume spike of any Lower Mainland region, rising by seven per cent, or half the volume of rush hour, at approximately 12:30 p.m. each day.

As North Vancouver district council affirmed in a transportation workshop earlier this year, the car is here to stay on the North Shore. “We are a car-centric community, for sure,” Coun. Roger Bassam told the February 13 meeting, at which district CAO David Stuart was asked how many cars were parked in his family’s driveway.

“Four,” he replied.“Yeah. That’s going to be the average,”

Coun. Lisa Muri said.“Is there any easy solution?” North Van

district engineering manager Steve Ono asks rhetorically on the phone with The Outlook. “We’ve built ourselves into this situation where traffic is an issue because of conges-tion; people want to drive their cars all over the place. But we can’t keep on going and doing the same thing that got us into the same problem.”
