by Rebekah Hammond Contributor One man died, nine people were taken to the hospital and all the residents of a Rich- mond apartment block had to be evacu- ated after it caught fire in the early hours of last Saturday. At about 1:45 a.m. Richmond Fire-Rescue was called to an apartment fire at 8540 Westminster Hwy. where fire and heavy smoke were visible. All three buildings of the apartment block were evacuated and several residents had to be rescued from their balconies. “Only one building was affected by the fire, but the others were filled with smoke and water and we wanted to assure their safety,” said deputy fire chief Tim Wilkin- son. “The final extinguishing took place around 6:30 a.m., so it took a good five hours to put out.” Ten ambulances were also on site for Rebekah Hammond photo medical assistance and attended to one Emergency services were on the scene of an apartment fi re at 8540 Westminster Hwy. man in critical condition. “We were presented with one patient who had gone into cardiac arrest that our Richmond’s Emergency Social Services termine the cause, fire department officials ment) yesterday,” he said. “There were paramedics tried to resuscitate,” said Am- used buses to evacuate the remaining ten- will have a better idea of when people can about 93 residents without a place to stay bulance Service Supt.

ith long-standing publication bans now lifted on evidence from the Robert WWilliam Pickton trial, the horror of his crimes is once again front and centre. So are society’s shortcomings. In light of new details released in recent days, family members of the missing women have renewed their calls for a public inquiry into the police handling of the case. Vancouver Police, the RCMP and the City of Vancouver support the notion, which B.C.’s attorney general is con- sidering. Last week, Vancouver Police issued an apology for not catching Pickton sooner. But any shortcomings in this case go beyond what the cops did or did not do. The women Pickton murdered were victimized long before they met their violent ends on a Port Coquitlam pig farm. Most came from chaotic family backgrounds and were shuttled through numerous foster homes during child- hood. Their needs for counselling and other professional inter- vention were ignored, and they easily fell prey to drug dealers and pimps. Despite being highly visible—strolling the streets for “dates” to support their addictions or becoming frequent flyers at the local lock-up as their risky lifestyles repeat- edly roused trouble—the women were ignored.
