Former CFL Stars Use Grey Cup Week to Tackle Domestic Violence | CBC News CBC 11/22/2018 Former CFL stars use Grey Cup week to tackle domestic violence | CBC News CBC Former CFL stars use Grey Cup week to tackle domestic violence 'We need the vast majority [of men] to start speaking up now and that's what this is all about' Min Dhariwal · CBC News · Posted: Nov 21, 2018 8:00 PM MT | Last Updated: November 21 Keon Raymond, left, Jan Reimer and JR Larose, right, were some of the speakers at the Breakfast with the Guys at the Chateau Lacombe Hotel Wednesday in an effort to end violence and abuse against women and girls. (Min Dhariwal/CBC) As a professional football player, Keon Raymond played the game with emotion and enjoyed being in the spotlight. But for years, the former Calgary Stampeders linebacker and Grey Cup winner hid a dark secret about growing up with domestic abuse. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/edmonton/cfl-domestic-abuse-grey-cup-women-s-shelters-edmonton-1.4915250 1/5 11/22/2018 Former CFL stars use Grey Cup week to tackle domestic violence | CBC News "My mom Darlene Hall, she's the backbone of who I am as a man," Raymond told a group of 200 business leaders at the Chateau Lacombe Hotel Wednesday. "She endured a lot of abuse from my father growing up," he said. He recalls he, his mother and his siblings driving from Missouri to Washington State to escape the abuse. "We drove two days to Seattle where we stayed in a shelter." Raised by his mother in Seattle, Raymond found release through the game of football. Edmonton organizations work to prevent domestic violence spike during Grey Cup 'It's a hidden problem': Edmonton Eskimos' Ryan King tackles domestic abuse He eventually turned pro in 2006, eventually winning two Grey Cup rings with Calgary. After hanging up his cleats, Raymond teamed up with the Alberta Council of Women's Shelters. ACWS works with 41 shelters across the province and speaks out against violence against women and girls. 'Your past doesn't dictate your future' "Even though I was a kid at the time — seven, eight years old — your past doesn't dictate your future," Raymond said. "No matter whatever that kid is going through in regards to the domestic violence, you know it won't define who you are as a young man, or a young woman and I want to make sure that when I go out I spread that message," he said https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/edmonton/cfl-domestic-abuse-grey-cup-women-s-shelters-edmonton-1.4915250 2/5 11/22/2018 Former CFL stars use Grey Cup week to tackle domestic violence | CBC News ACWS @womenshelter “If that shelter wasn’t there, i wouldnt be talking to you today” - @Mr_Raymond25 #MyActionsMatter 4 7:16 AM - Nov 21, 2018 · Edmonton, Alberta See ACWS's other Tweets Former Edmonton Eskimos and B.C. Lions safety JR Larose is another former CFLer who shares his story of domestic violence. Larose speaks for the Ending Violence Association of British Columbia and works with the CFL in providing mandatory training for players and staff on domestic abuse. 'Standing with women and not against them' Larose said hearing a former NHL player talk about his experiences convinced him to do the same. "That's what this is all about, raising awareness on these issues and creating conversations," he said. "We're now standing with women and not against them. 'Speak up': Athlete JR Larose shares anti-violence message CFL seeks to combat violence against women https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/edmonton/cfl-domestic-abuse-grey-cup-women-s-shelters-edmonton-1.4915250 3/5 11/22/2018 Former CFL stars use Grey Cup week to tackle domestic violence | CBC News "It's a small percentage of men who commit these acts of violence that really ruins it for the vast majority, but we need the vast majority to start speaking up now and that's what this is all about." EVA BC @EndViolenceBC Spokesperson JR LaRose: Getting involved in #BeMoreThanABystander was a ‘no brainer’. @j_tonto27 @BCLions 12 10:59 AM - Nov 16, 2018 See EVA BC's other Tweets It's a shift in thinking which Jan Reimer, executive director of ACWS, has seen first hand since joining the organization in 2001. "If we can get that critical mass of men saying, 'Hey, that's not OK behaviour' and call that behaviour out when it happens, then it's no longer publicly sanctioned and we can really make great inroads." Larose and Raymond will be at Commonwealth Stadium on Sunday, standing under a tent on the concourse, ready to talk about the Grey Cup game, but, more importantly, about domestic violence and what can be done to stop it. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/edmonton/cfl-domestic-abuse-grey-cup-women-s-shelters-edmonton-1.4915250 4/5.

  • Information Bulletin Bc Place Revitalization Final Cost
    INFORMATION BULLETIN BC PLACE REVITALIZATION FINAL COST VANCOUVER, BC: BC Pavilion Corporation (PavCo) announced today the final cost for the new BC Place is $514 million. The final approved budget for the stadium revitalization project was $563 million. The project was completed $49 million under budget primarily through savings achieved during the Phase 2 Retractable Roof project. BC Place was revitalized in two stages over a period of more than three years, involving more than 5000 skilled professionals and tradespeople. BC Place was awarded ‘Project of the Year’ at the StadiumBusiness Awards in Italy, in May 2012. The stadium has also been nominated for the BC Hydro PowerSmart Excellence Awards in the ‘New Construction’ Category – achieving approximately 38 per cent in electrical savings from eliminating the old air-supported roof. Furthermore, the Rick Hansen foundation recently featured BC Place as an “Accessible Success Story” - for ‘new accessible features of a community facility’. Reopening September 30, 2011, the new BC Place became the new home to Major League Soccer’s Vancouver Whitecaps FC, and home to the returning BC Lions Football Club and the BC Sports Hall of Fame.

    KEY HISTORICAL MOMENTS GETTING INTO THE WIFU: 1951 TO 1954 1951 A group led by Ken Stauffer and Tiny Radar, inspired by columnist Andy Lytle, sends representatives to the off-season Western Interprovincial Football Union meetings to initiate Vancouver’s bid for a team. 1952 WIFU rejects Vancouver’s application when Winnipeg and Regina vote against the idea of a fifth team. 1953 The first annual meeting of the club, held on January 22, 1953 saw Arthur E. Mercer named as the first President. With the help of future Hall of Fame builder Vic Spencer, Vancouver was granted a conditional franchise on the requirements of a 15,000 seat stadium, selling 6,500 season tickets and providing guaranteed travel expenses of the visiting teams. The Lions hire their first head coach Annis Stukus who begins to scout for players without the aid of an expansion draft. 1953 Water boy and future club GM, President and Hall of Famer Bob Ackles is hired. 1954 Empire Stadium opens in time for the 1954 British Empire Games and the Lions’ inaugural season in the WIFU. The Lions first-ever game is a 22-0 pre-season loss to Montreal before 19,371 spectators. 1954 The Lions open at home on August 28, 1954 against Winnipeg and their first ever TD comes a minute before half-time as By Bailey crashes over from a yard out to give BC a 5-1 lead. The Bombers fought back however with a TD to level the score. Two 4th quarter singles eventually gave Winnipeg the victory by an 8-6 count.
