This film is created was Cindy Gierarch. The film shares happy memories of canoeing with her husband, Lester, on beautiful glacier fed Moraine Lake in the Canadian Rockies in Alberta. This trip, in 2007, was a long dreamt of reward for paying off the mortgage on their Burnaby condo suite. While canoeing on the lake, Cindy learned a valuable lesson that she would never forget - “life will glide along smoothly and joyfully as long as I keep my paddle on the bottom of our canoe.”

Collected by editorial for use in a March 2002 issue of the Burnaby NewsLeader
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: "Burnaby firefighters arrive on the scene as Josh Carturnar wages a futile battle with his garden hose against a fire engulfing his neighbor's house in the 3900 block of Napier St., Saturday morning. Three residents who were home at the time got out safely. Roberto Melara says he was watching television just before heading out to play soccer when he noticed smoke pouring from the heating vents. He woke his brother and boarder, who were sleeping downstairs, and got them out of the house. "I just got scared," says Danny Sanchez, of the panicked knock on his door that woke him. "We just ran outside." The family's parents and grandmother were at church at the time. "It's bad," says Melara. "Everything is in there. We don't have anything." Melara says he suspects the fire started in or near the furnace. He says they've had problems with it recently. He says the family has rented the home for seven years. They have no insurance."
