Caption from metadata: "Gord Thorneycroft says he used to be able to enjoy his morning coffee looking out onto a quiet, tree-lined lane while working in his garage behind his home on 9th Ave. But workers building the new 10th Ave. connector tore out the trees last September, the City of Burnaby isn't making any promises to erect noise barriers, and his lane has become a thoroughfare to the Bombardier Skytrain plant."

Caption from metadata: "Bernie Remmen works on the bow of the Viking ship being built by about 40 volunteers at the Scandanavian Community Centre. Construction on the ship started last year, to commemorate the 1000th anniversary of the first Viking sailors arrival in North America. Marion Toft, the president of the Norwegian House Society, says the project, which is being guided by two master shipbuilders, is a tribute to the skills of Norse shipbuilders. She says the ship should be ready for launch by early summer."

Caption from metadata for 535-1959-1: "Nick Kvenich is one of the founding members of the Eagle Creek Streamkeepers, which is looking to preserve the habitat of the creek that runs down from Squint Lake into a ravine below the Lake City industrial area."
Caption from metadata for 535-1959-2: "Joan Carne (r) and Louise Towell, of the Byrne Creek Streamkeepers, examine a storm drain in an industrial area above the creek. The habitat faces constant pressure from businesses and homeowners who pour solvents, soaps and substances into the drains without thought to the consequences."
Caption from metadata for 535-1959-3: "Nick Kvenich, one of the founding members of the Eagle Creek Streamkeepers, climbs through a fallen tree that is blocking a trail that runs alongside the creek, in a ravine below the Lake City industrial area. Although the tree will eventually be cleared by the GVRD, Kvenich says he prefers if such obstacles be left alone, as they would discourage people who might abuse the habitat."
Caption from metadata for 535-1959-4: "Elmer Rudolf feeds a new batch of coho fry at the Sapperton Fish & Game Club's hatchery, near the Brunette River. The fry are normally fed by a timed conveyor belt, but that is supplemented by hand feedings to give the weaker fish a chance."

Caption from metadata for 535-2596-1: "Joel Macht, a researcher and instructor at the Neil Squire Foundation, trains injured and disabled computer users to use adaptive technology, like the SafeType keyboard. The keyboard is designed to ease the pain of repetitive strain injuries by allowing users to keep their hands and wrists in a more natural upright position. The mirrors attached to the keyboard allow users to check the position of the keys."
Caption from metadata for 535-2596-3: "Mandakini Wineberg is learning how to use voice-recognition technology at the Neil Squire Foundation after being diagnosed with repetitive strain injury."
Caption from metadata for 535-2596-4: "Sunny Doig uses his computer to express himself by writing stories and diary entries despite being blind and a quadriplegic. He writes by tapping out morse code on a touch pad pinned to his shirt."
Caption from metadata for 535-2596-5: "Jova Bosanac's limited mobility because of Noonan's Syndrome means it can take a superhuman effort for him to use his computer."
