Youth Citizenship Awards

Presenter: His Worship, Mayor Derek R. Corrigan

 

His Worship, Mayor Derek Corrigan introduced Youth Week, an annual event to celebrate and acknowledge the contributions of young people to the community. Following is the text of the Mayor’s remarks:

 

“Twenty-three years ago, young people in Metro Vancouver asked why there wasn’t a day to celebrate youth. They were asked ‘Why not a week rather than a day?’  This simple idea is what started it all. Youth Week is now an international celebration. Here, in British Columbia, Youth Week takes place during the first week of May and is a fun filled week of interaction and celebration intended to build a strong connection between young people and their communities and to profile youth issues, accomplishments and diversity.

 

Wherever Youth Week is celebrated, the idea behind it is the same: young people are important and need to be recognized in a constructive and positive manner.  Their contributions should be acknowledged and celebrated.

 

Youth are often criticized and stereotyped in ways that don’t reflect that they are, in fact, creative, motivated and full of excellent ideas that will improve our community and our world. The youth we’re honouring here tonight bear out that fact.  We have a diverse bunch of young people gathered here today, who volunteer in many areas and capacities in their community.  Some sit on committees and belong to clubs in their schools, such as Student Government and Model United Nations groups.  Others focus their energies on specific causes, such as youth leadership training, environmental initiatives, mental health issues and global challenges.

 

There are representatives here who help seniors learn computer skills through the Tech Easy program. We have youth, who are on the Youth Voice Committee, and have fundraised to help families in need locally as well as globally.  And we also have youth who have helped out with the Salvation Army, Covenant House and BC Children’s Hospital.

 

An eclectic bunch indeed.  But what is common between all of these nominees is that they care about their city and community, and they want to be actively involved and make a difference. If this is what our youth of today are involved with in Burnaby, I am excited to see what our adults of tomorrow will do.

 

The Burnaby Youth Voice Committee has created citizenship awards to recognize young people in Burnaby who have volunteered their time and skills, and, in doing so, have made a very positive difference in our community.

 

 

 

I would like to take the time to recognize the following youth who have been nominated for a citizenship award:

 

Alisha Rahemtulla, Alyana Lalani, Alyssa Wong, Amanda Lee, Ameena Davison, Bijoux Umukundwa, Bill Hsu, Chaewon Song, David Vallejera, Enrique Perez, Guneet Pooni, Hnat Cheung, Ibreez Asaria, Jasper Chan, Jennifer Phan, Jessica Xu, Joshua Vallejera, Kyle Tadeo, Logan Khan, Mahi Hussain, Maiya Kazuta, Mandy Kwan, Mernin Anne Orogo, Michael Young, Nicole Hou, Ramin Najar, Wel Deng

 

The next five youth have been selected as the winners of this year’s citizenship awards and will be presented with a $100 bursary.  These youth have gone over and above to make a difference in Burnaby and beyond, while maintaining personal, academic, and extracurricular involvement.  Please join me in the appreciation and recognition of:

 

Angelina Ge, Dante Wong, Phyllis Cherng, Sameer Esmail, Sonya Kung

 

This year’s Burnaby Youth Week logo contest winner is Giorgia De Giovanni. She was an international student at Burnaby South Secondary School, who has now returned to Italy.”

DELEGATION

 

 

MOVED BY COUNCILLOR CALENDINO

SECONDED BY COUNCILLOR MCDONELL

 

THAT the delegation be heard.

 

CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY

 

A)

Elsie Dean

Re: Climate Accountability

Speakers: Elsie Dean

Andrew Gage, West Coast Environmental Law Representative

 

 

Ms. Elsie Dean, Burnaby Residents Opposing Kinder Morgan Expansion (BROKE), and Mr. Andrew Gage of West Coast Environmental Law, appeared before Council and spoke to  the impacts of climate change locally and globally. Rising sea levels, wild fires, increased frequency of storm events, droughts, and flooding are reshaping and impacting BC communities in profound and frightening ways. Municipal infrastructure will need to adapt to accommodate environmental changes due to climate changes. Currently the infrastructure costs are being born by taxpayers and not the corporations responsible for creating the pollution.

The speakers advocated for a polluter-pay model reflective of the true cost of oil production, refinement and use. Mr. Gage presented Council with a sample “Climate Accountability Letter” and requested Council consider sending a similar letter to 20 of the world’s largest fossil fuel companies asking them to pay for the climate costs that are being incurred by the City of Burnaby.

 

MOVED BY COUNCILLOR MCDONELL

SECONDED BY COUNCILLOR KANG

 

THAT the Climate Accountability Letter and background materials provided by the delegation be REFERRED to the Financial Management Committee for further review and consideration.
