BLUE FOR A GREEN REASON Konstantin Dimopoulos is painting the town... blue. This week, the Australian artist applied a tempo- rary, biodegrad- able colorant to 16 trees in front of Port Moody city hall and on a large tree in front of the PoMo Arts Centre as part of the Vancouver International Sculpture Biennale public art project. Dimopoulos also recently painted the trees blue in Richmond and West Vancouver to generate con- versation about the depleting supply of native forests. An artist’ s reception will be held on Sunday at PoMo city hall (100 Newport Dr.) from 3 to 5 p.m. JENNIFER GAUTHIER THE TRI-CITY NEWS MARCH 25, 201 1 www.tricitynews.com INSID E Letters/12 Things-to-do Guide/21 Green Scene/22 Sports/48 FRIDA Y THE FRIDAY TRI - C ITY NEW S 2010 WINNER Victims hit by delays SEE JUSTICE DENIED – PART 2, PAGE 3 Those darn workers SEE FACE TO FACE, PAGE 11 They’re awake... and they’re very hungry There’s little question that bears have made their presence known in the Tri-Cities in recent years. They’ve munched garbage, clawed garage doors and forced changes in how and when we put out our trash. Today , The Tri-City News begins a series of monthly features on the beasts just in time. Says one expert: “This is the s best opportunity we have all year to prevent bears from learning bad habits.” See articles on pages 18 and 19 Accused is out on bail Cory Sater gets bail with conditions By Todd Coyne THE TRI-CITY NEWS Cory Sater, the Coquitlam man charged with killing Charlene Reaveley and Lorraine Cruz and injuring another man in an alleged hit-and-run Feb. 19, was granted bail Thursday in Port Coquitlam provincial court. He was to be released on a $10,000 bond and stick to the fol- lowing bail conditions: that he keep the peace, observe a cur- few of 9 p .m. to 6 a.m. unless with his father, have no contact with the victims’ families, not dri ve and not be in possession of or consume alcohol or drugs. He next appears in court on Wednesday , April 13. Thursday’s hearing was Sater’s first public appearance since his arrest, and friends and family of both Reaveley and the accused filled the packed courtroom. Sater entered the courtroom and sat behind a glass parti- tion, crying and shaking violently as he mouthed “I love you” to his father and nine other friends and family mem- bers seated in the court. There is a ban on publication of the details of the hearing. Throughout the proceedings, the tall, muscular Sater ap- peared lethargic, swaying back and forth in his seat, mouth held agape and mumbling intermittently. PoCo ponders a pesticide ban By Gary McKenna THE TRI-CITY NEWS There could be stiff penalties for Port Coquitlam property owners who use banned chemicals on their lawns and gardens for cosmetic purposes if a new pesticide bylaw is adopted by council. The draft document states that fines of up to $10,000 could be levied for people who use garden chemicals deemed bad for the environment and unsafe for human health on private property. Municipalities across the country have adopted similar regulations due to concerns about health and envi- ronmental risks associated with the use of pesticides. see see FINE LEVELS FINE LEVELS, , page page 13 13 see ‘THERE’S NO CLOSURE’ , page 16
