First Nations to Bid Trans- ¡≈¬∆ÒÀµ‡√ È∂ Ú‹≈«¬¡≈ Íø‹≈Ï Á≈ ÏÀ∫‚ Mountain Pipeline Expansion
Edmonton (ATB): Chief Mike LeBourdais of the Whispering Pines First Nation, a community to the north of Kamloops, told Radio NL that the group has met with banks, industry and other potential equity participants. With a federal election expected by N o v e m b e r , LeBourdais told Radio NL’s Shane Woodford that “we are going to put a pre-emptive bid” in front of government, probably by April or May. The Whispering Pines community is one of 43 First Nations in B.C. and Alberta that have reached impact benefit agreements with the TransMountain project, if it
goes ahead. Last summer, LeBourdais told media that the hope is that the proposed pipeline expansion would get more Indigenous support if First Nations were in charge of it. “The best way for those who are worried about the environment is to have control over the thing you fear,” he said. Last year the federal government took ownership of the Trans-Mountain pipeline for $4.5 billion after previous owner Kinder Morgan s u s p e n d e d construction of its $7.4billion expansion unless government could offer the company certainty that
the project would go ahead. O t h e r Indigenous groups have also discussed buying into the project, including the Indian Resource Council of Canada, which held high-level meetings with government last month, according to the CBC. And the IRCC is set to meet with its membership near Calgary to discuss possible ownership models. However, First Nations representatives who have opposed the pipeline project say those discussions don’t necessarily advance the project. “One Indian Act band or a couple of Indian Act bands purchasing the pipeline doesn’t give them
consent (to proceed),” said Judy Wilson, chief of the Neskonlith First Nation and secretary treasurer of the Union of B.C. Indian Chiefs. First Nations that oppose the expansion project include Lower M a i n l a n d communities such as the Squamish, Musqueam and TsleilWaututh. W i l s o n , whose Neskonlith First Nation’s territory is east of Kamloops, said that whether federal government or other First Nations own the pipeline, they still have to meet obligations to properly consult with First Nations. A Federal Court of Appeal decision last fall quashed the pipelineexpansion project’s environmental approval because the project, in part, hadn’t adequately consulted with six First Nations that had challenged the permit. Wilson said the federal government’s attempt to restart that consultation process in her region hasn’t gone well.

Dr Virinder Singh BJP finally tells off Shatrughan:
Native village/Country, parent’s background Pathankot, Punjab, India. Father was an Architect and mother was a home maker Your early education I completed MBBS from Government Medical College, Amritsar (Punjab). Subsequently, I obtained M.S. (General Surgery) When & why you came to Canada? 2008. I immigrated in Federal Nominee Program Your career advancement initiatives and present occupation I reached in September, 2008 and cleared the first paper of evaluation exam in couple of months. On March 2009, University of Alberta recruited me as a Team Leader, MDSI and provided me the team of Dietician, Lab Technician and Retinal Photographer. In 2010, Sturgeon Hospital, St Albert placed me as Clinical Assistant. Royal Alexendra Hospital employed me in 2011.Meanwhile, I completed other evaluation exams. Then, from 2012 to 2014, I completed Residency from University of Alberta. At present, I am a practising Family Physician Your regret in life I regret the social life which I enjoyed back home. Pick any one of your the best achievements In spite of the fact that I entered Canada in late forties, I cleared Evaluation Exams in one go. None of the paper was re attempted. Establishing myself in my own field and that too in competition with young and locally qualified doctors, really make me proud. However, I will be the last person to brag Were you ever discriminated? Not really What you miss in Canada? The flavor and taste of an authentic Punjabi food.Also, the delicious Punjabi Mangoes, my great addiction in summers Are you happy in Canada? I am happy indeed
Why? Canada is the World’s # 2 livable country and provide an unmatched quality of life. Law of land is enforced fully enabling every resident to lead safe and secured life style Any comments on Canada’s weather No doubt winters are harsh. However, one gets conditioned with continuous stay. Summers are really gorgeous and provide an abundant opportunities to explore the pristine Canadian nature Any comments on Canada’s culture Cultures have evolved world over and the multicultural conduit of Canada turn in good as well as bad situations. It’s one’s own preference to what kind of life he/she wants to lead. I as Doctor will always recommend healthy life style and non-indulgence in any kind of addiction What brought you success in Canada? Blessings of Almighty and hard work. My never give up attitude enabled me to remain focussed on my goal. Of course, my significant half, Dr Anupma Gill was always with me in all circumstances Are you willing to help new immigrants? Definitely How? I am always a great guide and supporter to our folks who want to pursue the medical profession. I have trained very many physicians and am still helping lots. Even some of the would be physicians stay with me while completing their evaluation course Your message for Canadians of South Asian origin If haven is on earth, it’s only in Canada. I agree, it takes a while to settle down and everybody settles eventually. We should vouch for our conduct and try to lead as role models so that the mainstream should always rate us well and embrace us. Always give back to society whatever way you can. Be engaged in communities and respect multiculturalism
Quit if you don’t like it here
PATNA (ATB)After constantly facing jibes from Shatrughan Sinha, BJP MP from Patna Sahib, the BJP finally advised the veteran actor to leave the party “if he does not like it.” The advice came from Bihar’s deputy CM and senior BJP leader Sushil Kumar Modi who said Sinha had “fallen into bad company of Yashwant Sinha.” Modi was speaking at a programme organised by a TV channel on Tuesday night. Sinha, an actor-turned-politician, has virtually turned into a BJP rebel, lashing out at his own party leaders on national and state issues, often from public platforms. He has also targeted Prime Minister Narendra Modi on issues like rising fuel prices, demonetisation, Rafale deal and the Vijay Mallya case. “Shatrughan Sinha is also my icon but the manner in which he is targeting the BJP, he should quit. He is using all sorts of language against the party which made him the cabinet minister, Rajya Sabha member
for two terms and gave him two terms in the Lok Sabha,” said Modi. What embarrassed the BJP most that while criticizing the party and demonetisation and GST, Sinha also started visiting opposition leaders, including Lalu Prasad. “He met Lalu Prasad and has started projecting his son as CM of Bihar,” said Modi. Sinha, who had been visiting an ailing Lalu Prasad at his Patna residence, also went to RIIMS in Ranchi December last to meet the RJD chief. Modi also dared Sinha to contest from Patna Sahib if he was so sure of his popularity. “His victory in last parliamentary elections was made possible by the joint efforts of BJP leaders like Nand Kishore Yadav,

Sanjeev Chaurasia, Arun Kumar Sinha and Nitisn Navin,” he said. Modi, whose name is doing the rounds in political circles as the probable BJP candidate from Patna Sahib, left it to party to take a call on it. “If the party decides, I will contest. If not, I will not. I am born in the BJP and will die in this party,” he said. Modi, who won Lok Sabha polls from Bhagalpur in 2004, was later made the deputy chief minister in the Nitish Kumar-led NDA government in 2005. As regards Sinha, he announced his intention to contest again from Patna Sahib in 2019, but did not specify if he intends to join any other party. “The BJP did not give me a ticket; I took it on my own. And I will contest from Patna Sahib
again,” he said at the same event held by a TV?channel. “The location (constituency) will be the same, even if the situation is otherwise,” he said. Sinha has been cosying up to opposition parties such as the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) and the Congress. He has praised RJD’s Tejashwi Yadav, calling him a “very mature leader”. Yadav reciprocated the gesture at an iftar party last year. “Chacha (Shatrughan Sinha) is with us,” he said, fuelling speculation that Sinha could be the RJD candidate for the Patna Sahib seat in 2019. The two-time Lok Sabha MP has also openly praised Congress chief Rahul Gandhi.

India can gain massively from the space race The moon completes one revolution around the earth in the same time as it completes one rotation around its axis. This unique characteristic means that we on earth always get to see the same side of the moon. The other, dark, side of the moon, has been understudied and could reveal a number of things about its origin and that of the earth. With Chang’e4’s landing last week, China became the first country to land a spacecraft on the dark side of the moon. Chang’e-4 is equipped with a lander and a rover. Interestingly, India’s Chandrayan-2 has a similar remit and it will be equipped with an orbiter, a lander and a rover. The two Asian giants seem to be locked in a space race. India has recently decided to send a human into space. If successful, it will only be the fourth country in the world to achieve this feat. It also plans to send an orbiter mission to Venus and a second mission to Mars. China has its own mission to Venus but it plans to put a lander and a rover on Mars before that. Its targets before 2030 include exploration of Jupiter and asteroids as well. In sheer terms of budget and achievements, China is ahead of India but the latter has not done badly given its myriad other economic challenges. The race, though, has only begun. This race is an opportunity to be taken advantage of. The previous episode of a space race between the US and the Soviet Union during the Cold War helped both the superpowers modernise their industries and accelerate scientific progress. The battle for ideological supremacy may have had other negatives, but it proved a boon for the march of technology. The winner of the Cold War race — the US — is by no means out of the game. Its private industry, led by Elon Musk’s SpaceX, is churning out new ambitious projects like a trip to the moon for customers who agree to pay. The next big thing is militarisation of space. The US announced a space force last year. Russia has had an aerospace force since 2015 and China’s space programme has always had military aspirations. India opposes weaponisation of space but having an opinion does not count for much unless you have capabilities. New Delhi, one hopes, would have learnt the right lessons after how grievously it erred during the nuclear disarmaMary Thomas Associate Editor, ment debate.

you can or whether you think you can’t, you’re right.” Henry Ford Whether you made New Year resolutions or not, now is the time
to reflect on how much you’ve followed through. 71% of those who make a commitment to change do so in the first few weeks of January, and nearly 50% report continuous success 6 months later. When you really think about that, it suggests that simply setting an intention is quite powerful. Making difficult changes often requires a few attempts before we turn that corner and
maintain them. Better to make a shift that will make your life better than to allow yourself to be stuck and dissatisfied in the long term.None of us are new to addictions: smoking, alcohol, drugs, social media and other things that veer us away from our purpose, time suckers. I have friends who’ve been clean for a few or more years. Here’s 4 strategies that set them apart from those who fell
back into their old ways: First, they rewarded themselves for success. You can use rewards to eliminate any habit, you are trying to break, or to begin a new, healthy habit (like exercising). Make achievable goals with timelines for yourself, and plan how you will reward yourself for following through. Remember to make the link clear in your mind, by telling yourself, “I’m

celebrating the positive change I made and followed through.” Second, they kept reminders not to give into the problem. You can put it in your notes on your cell phone: a list of the reasons why you committed to changing something, such as eliminating smoking, drinking, or overeating. Then look at it whenever you feel tempted. Or put a sticky note on the refrigerator so that you’ll see it when you’re tempted to open it. Pick reminders of the reasons that are most important to you, focusing on the results you can envision if you are successful. Third, they avoided situations that tempted them to engage in the addiction.Counsellors might tell you, “Be smart, not strong.” More often than not, people measure their success by testing out their strength in a challenging situation.
Rather than testing out your willpower, which tempts you to return to your old ways, you can increase your chances of success by staying out of tempting situations. The more you succeed, the more you’re motivated to keep it up. Finally, they practice positive thinking about their ability to change an old behavior. If you don’t do this already, it is a really great habit, so start now! It is easy to get hung up and focus on all of the reasons it might not work. Although it is good to anticipate problems and make plans to overcome them, dwelling on those problems for too long will not help you. Change the narrative. Think about times you’ve survived hardships in your life. Focus on your strengths, find evidence that change is possible. What do you want to change? Today is the first day for the rest of your life.
