Faster, better service for renters and landlords
R
enters and landlords are getting more efficient service through the Residential Tenancy Branch (RTB), thanks to government investments and innovations making it easier to apply for dispute resolution online and shortening wait times for both hearings and information. “As we continue to update our tenancy laws to better protect people, we know it is important to ensure that the RTB has the resources to support renters and landlords,” said Selina Robinson, Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing. “A lack of investment under the previous government led to long wait times and made it hard for landlords and renters to access the services they needed. While we continue to work to improve access, we are seeing clearly our government’s investments have led to significant improvements that mean people in B.C. will have easier access to help for their rental housing concerns.”
“The new Residential Tenancy Branch service portal has simplified the dispute resolution process for both landlords and tenants,” said David Hutniak, chief executive officer, LandlordBC. “We support the Residential Tenancy
Branch’s continued commitment to embracing new technologies with the aim to ensure landlords and tenants have access to timely and fair justice.”
The service portal guides applicants through the application process and is continuously updated to help ensure applicants provide the right information, offers digital evidence uploading and includes online payment or a feeTo assist with reducing wait times, the waiver process for those who qualify.

WSO Works to Introduce Kirpan Accommodation on BC Ferries
he WSO has worked to implement a kirpan accommodation policy with BC Ferries after several Sikh passengers were told they could not wear their kirpans while travelling.
BC Ferries provides transportation for many BC residents who travel between the mainland and coastal and island communities. The WSO was contacted last summer by several Sikh passengers who were told that their kirpans were not permitted on BC Ferries and must be stowed in their luggage. The WSO contacted BC Ferries and provided information on the significance of the kirpan and about accommodation policies in other settings such as trains, courthouses, stadiums and buses across Canada. After ongoing discussions, BC Ferries has introduced a kirpan accommodation policy which states: Practicing members of the Sikh religion are permitted to carry a

We were surprised that given the history and population of Sikh in British Columbia, BC Ferries did not have an official kirpan accommodation policy. This was resulting in some Sikh passengers being denied service while

Millennials or parents, who has had it easier?
(NC) Millennials have become an easy target for But among millennials, there’s a definite difference older generations who often say that life for younger of opinion on the subject. The number jumps for people is a relative breeze. those ages 25 to 34 to 45 per cent, while younger millennials 18 to 24 are lower than the national New generational research conducted by Equifax average at 28 per cent. Canada, however, indicates that the answer isn’t so clear cut after a recent survey of 1,500 Canadians. “There’s a tendency to paint millennials with one brush, but that’s a mistake because it’s a broad age When asked to assess their current standard of living group,” says Julie Kuzmic, director of consumer compared to their parents at the same age, 35 per cent advocacy for Equifax Canada. “Younger people respondents indicated they felt they are currently within this group tend to be more optimistic. The worse off financially. reverse is true for older millennials who have been working longer and have started to think about buy-
ing a house. This group is definitely finding life a little tougher than their parents.” Data from the Canadian Real Estate Association backs this up. On aggregate home prices in Canada have increased by 45 per cent over the last five years to an average of $634,000. It’s even higher in Toronto and Vancouver where the average home prices are $768,000 and over $1 million, respectively. Compounding the problem is the fact that the average Canadian salary is $51,667 and has only increased by nine per cent over the same time frame. Feeling somewhat stymied, millennials also say they don’t feel they have enough information to make financial decisions. This time it’s the younger group who feel this way the most, at 54 per cent compared to 43 per cent of older millennials. The national average is 30 per cent. “Education will get you and keep you on the road to financial wellness,” says Kuzmic. “Thoughtful financial planning cannot take a backseat to daily life.” She offers the following tips towards financial wellness: Know where your money goes, track personal expenses and consider where you can cut back, like coffee or Netflix. Develop a budget and pay bills on time to maintain a good credit score. Save for major purchases and pay yourself first. Save for emergencies with an emergency fund. Protect your financial data from identity theft. Know your credit and ensure your credit reports are accurate. PAGE 10

creased understanding of Indigenous culture is a high priority for all levels of government, particularly within the health-care system, as we focus on providing the culturally safe care people depend on every day.” The pole’s theme is Crossing Cultures and Healing and was carved by artists Tom and Perry LaFortune, brothers and members of the Tsawout First Nation. The pole is a partnership between the Royal BC Museum, the Ministry of Health, Songhees and Esquimalt Nations, and supported by TimberWest. The public was invited to share in the artists’ journey as they roughed out the pole and then carved it throughout the summer at the Royal BC Museum’s outdoor upper plaza.
languages, world views, culture and heritage are integral to the health and wellness of Indigenous peoples and enrich the lives of all residents. The carvers explain that the totem pole displays from the top down: Raven: messenger of good news; Owl: ability to see in both worlds, the past, present and future; Frog: conscience of the community;

Racism and hate have no place in B.C.
his year marks the 25th anniversary of the B.C. Multiculturalism Act. For me, this anniversary is a chance to reflect on how well we’re living up to the principles of equality and respect enshrined in the Act, and where we’re headed together as a society.
In 1993, when the Act was first created it seemed it was needed more than ever. Residential schools remained opened in Canada. A ban preventing Sikhs from wearing turbans in the RCMP had only just been lifted. The provincial cabinet included just one person of colour. We have made significant strides in the past 25 years, seeing the arc of history bend towards justice. However, like many of you, I feel and observe an unsettling change in our society. This change is occurring in daily life both off and online. Peoples’ symbols of faith are being challenged in Quebec. A new Canadian political party is using the issues of public safety and immigration to stir up its base. Here in British Columbia, we have seen people targeted on public transit for who they are and how they dress. And

We’ve also invited British Columbians from all backgrounds to participate in a Multicultural Advisory Council, a legislated body created to provide advice to government on ways we can promote multiculturalism and address racism. These are a few of the first steps our government has taken. But they won’t be the last. This Multiculturalism Week, our pledge as government is to meet hate and intolerance head-on, for the sake of our beautifully diverse society. I ask all British Columbians to do the same.

UFV Young Distinguished Alumni Andrew Alexander winner fights scientific battle against antibiotic resistance
Andrew Alexander has only been a UFV alumnus for four years, but he’s accomplished enough in that short period to earn him the Young Distinguished Alumni Award for 2018.
After finishing his Bachelor of Science (Honours) with minors in biology and chemistry in 2014, he headed into a master’s degree program in molecular biology and biochemistry at the University of British Columbia, and then was invited to transition straight into a PhD program, where he continues his research. He has completed all the coursework for his doctorate with an A+ average. An enthusiasm for scientific research sparked during his time as an undergraduate student at UFV inspired him to choose research-focused graduate studies over his original goal: veterinary school to follow in his father’s footsteps. “Science is an incredible technique to use to study the world,” Alexander says. “It’s awesome in the truest sense of that word. I feel driven to find out things using science, and that’s what has led me to where I am today.” In his current research, he uses X-ray crystallography to study the molecular basis for antibiotic resistance in bacteria, exploring and characterizing proteins involved in peptidoglycan biogenesis and antibiotic resistance. “By understanding how molecules interact to facilitate or prevent antibiotic resistance I hope to improve our understanding of bacteria as well as aid in the development of new antibiotics,” he notes. “Through this work, I try to understand and provide solutions to the global challenge of increasing antibiotic resistance.” He plans to continue his PhD studies for a few more years, then conduct post-doctoral research with hopes of landing a permanent academic position. Since 2016, Alexander has held a prestigious Vanier graduate scholarship, funded by the Canadian Institute of Health Research, worth $50,000 per year. He declined three other doctoral scholarships due to winning the Vanier, and also received the $17,500 Alexander

He is also returning for a Faculty of Science graduation school information night. “It’s nice to feel connected to UFV,” he says.

The class action was brought on behalf of British Columbia and all federal, provincial and territorial governments that paid health care, pharmaceutical and treatment costs related to opioids since 1996. If it is certified as a class action by the Supreme Court of British Columbia, each province and territory can participate in the claim. Ministers from the provinces and territories have agreed to consider next steps on an expedited basis.

No ridesharing in B.C. again for holiday season

C Liberal Leader Andrew Wilkinson and Transportation Critic Jordan Sturdy are calling on the NDP to listen to British Columbians following the bungled introduction of ridesharing legislation this afternoon. “We can now expect another holiday season without ridesharing,” said Wilkinson. “Another season of British Columbians stuck out in the cold waiting for a ride home is unacceptable.

The rules and regulations introduced by Transportation Minister Claire Trevena today will make it almost impossible for ridesharing to exist in British Columbia.

BC Liberals want youth care to encompass full spectrum of treatment

The report calls for a full suite of harm reduction measures for youth, after 24 youth died last year from overdoses. This includes supervised injection sites but falls short of recommending youth-specific treatment, prevention and recovery options.
“Parents, foster parents and professionals also need to be trained in youth mental health and addictions issues, so they can recognize the warning signs early and seek help,” said Laurie Throness, BC Liberal Critic for Children and Family Development.
“The opioid crisis is not slowing down,” said BC Liberal Critic for Mental Health and Addictions Jane Thornthwaite. “The crisis has become so bad that it is actually causing life expectancy in our province to drop. The government’s strategy needs to expand from a sole focus on harm reduction to a full continuum of care that includes prevention and recovery in addition to harm reduction.”
The root causes of addiction need to be identified and treated so that youth can move on a pathway to get well. Educational, preventative and intervention initiatives integrated into the school system would also help.
“I introduced the Safe Care Act earlier this year, which would address many of the gaps in the government’s strategy,” said Thornthwaite. “It’s time for the That includes long-term recovery op- government to pass the Safe Care Act tions that help people get well and sup- so that youth get the care they need.”
3 tips when purchasing a new mobile device (NC) More and more, our mobile phones are becoming extensions of ourselves. The need to personalize your device from shape to interface to app selection and key features is important to us – we want to feel confident that our smartphone is working smartly for our unique needs. But with an explosion in options that just seems to increase every day, finding the best phone for you can be overwhelming. When you’re upgrading to a new device, follow these three tips to take the guesswork out of this major purchase: 1. Do your research. Start online to get a sense of the style of phone you’re interested in. Keep an open mind, but use the internet as a resource to help you narrow down things like brand, screen style, camera quality and price point. Plenty of websites compare phone specs and wireless plans so it’s easier to do the research ahead of time. 2. Look for value. You want to get the most bang for your buck, so look for

I never had a career : Shekhar Kapur
More often than not, critics are right : Amitabh
Amitabh Bachchan says criticism makes him believe that his creative work has been consumed by audiences. While in conversation with author Siddharth Dhanvant Shanghvi at the launch of the latter's book, Bachchan responded to questions on tackling criticism, stating, "The first assurance that you get is that somebody has actually [consumed] your work.It's important for us, in the creative field, because if no one goes to see our films, that is bad. I would liked to be criticised because it [reveals] an aspect of your work which you may not have been aware about," he added.The star said critics' observations often go beyond the obvious and point out nuances that could be essential for those in the creative field to be aware about. "Many critics are able to have that perception, who are able to go beyond what you have written or have a different view point. Many times, we are unaware of it. Most of the times, the critics are right and we are wrong."
Content is the new entertainment : Rajkummar Rao Actor Rajkummar Rao, who has delivered some pathbreaking performances since his Bollywood debut, says content is the new entertainment — whether it is through the web, films or audio — and that he is glad to be part of such a welcome change.The actor said, “I think content is the new entertainment. People want to experience something new, be it on-screen or audio. The definition of entertainment is definitely changing and I’m glad that I get to be a part and contribute to this welcome change.”Rajkummar has collaborated with Radhika Apte and Kalki Koechlin for the first time to narrate the audible adaptation of Hussain Zaidi’s novel, “Mafia Queens of Mumbai”.Asked how important is it for such stories to be told, he said, “I think it’s extremely important because till date we only know about the men in mafia, but these remarkable women are worth knowing, the situations that shaped their lives and the emotions that shaped their destiny.” Did he get a chance to read the book? “I did not get a chance to read

the book prior to coming on board for Audible. Thanks to this collaboration, I not only got to narrate the ‘Mafia Queens of Mumbai’, but also discover the complex situations, characters and uncertainty that shaped each of these women’s stories. Through the book I discovered a whole new Mumbai. “The character that I liked the most was of ‘Sapna Didi’ – the way she changed herself to avenge her husband, her life, her vengeance… It is so powerful. I was narrating her story, but also listening to it for the first time and it was fascinating. For me, Sapna’s story was a thriller and romance combined into one, it was shocking, gripping and impressive to know what she went through. I know it’s going to be a favourite among listeners,” he said. Rajkummar, who was last seen on-screen in Stree.
Internationally acclaimed Indian filmmaker Shekhar Kapur says he never had a career and that life, for him, has always been an adventure. Kapur was questioned by a troller, who asked him if "anything was left in his career". To which, the filmmaker replied: "I never had a career. I dropped that word from my life when I was 24 and walked away from a successful ‘career' as a Chartered Accountant in London. Since then life has been, is, and will always be an adventure. On this journey I've done so many things. Including making films."Kapur is known for Actress Mouni Roy, who made her Hindi film his works in Hindi and debut with Gold, has said that she can now die international cinema. He is happily after working with megastar Amitabh known in Bollywood for his Bachchan in her forthcoming film Brahmastra. recurring role in the TV series “I can die now happily after doing the scenes Khandan in the mid-1980s and with him (Amitabh). It can’t get better than that his directorial debut in the cult for me working with him in a film,” Mouni said Bollywood film Masoom in 1983 while interacting with media here as the newly and then Mr. India.He gained appointed brand ambassador for RSH Global, a international recognition with the personal care company for their new marketing 1994 Bollywood film Bandit campaign ‘Beauty By Nature’ . Mouni is sharing Queen, based on Mala Sen's biography of infamous Indian bandit and politician Phoolan Devi, which won the National Film Award for Best Feature Film in Hindi.The film was also premiered in the Directors Fortnight section screen space with Amitabh for the first time in their forthcoming of the 1994 Cannes Film Festival film Brahmastra.When asked Mouni, if Amitabh gave her any acting and was screened at the advice while shooting for the film, she said, Edinburgh Film Festival. In “No… he didn’t give me any specific advice as such while international cinema, his working because Ayan (Mukherji) used to be there on film sets but historical biopics on Queen I just lost my focus on the day when I was working with him.”“I was Elizabeth, Elizabeth and just staring at his face thinking that what an opportunity God has Elizabeth: The Golden Age, won given me because he is legendary as we all know so, I feel very the BAFTA Award for Best Film blessed and lucky to have worked with him,” she added. and two Academy Awards.
I can now die happily after working with Amitabh in Brahmastra : Mouni Roy
You must give it back to the society or a country : Twinkle Khanna Actress-writer-producer Twinkle Khanna has said that every individual must give it back to the society or their country "otherwise they would be just an animal roaming around."Twinkle Khanna was interacting with media where she was appointed as an artist ambassador of Save the Children foundation in Mumbai. "I think if you have the platform, then it is your responsibility to use it to help others because if life has given you something then, you must give it back to the society or the country," she said. Khanna spoke about her challenges while producing 'Pad Man' because a lot of people told her that nobody will watch a film based on menstrual hygiene. "We had lot
of movies about social problems, and we also had 'Toilet - Ek Prem Katha.' As the world observes November 19 as World Toilet Day, the good news is that India has toilet coverage of 95 per cent. So, I think movies make an impact," she said.Twinkle Khanna is known as a true-blue feminist who doesn't shy away from speaking her mind on various issues. "I would tell you that being a woman or a man is a physical state. We as women must not let our biology hinder us in any way."Spelling out her work with Save the Children foundation, she said, "One of the primary things that I would like to do is amplifying the voices of these young champions. It is my main job to spread awareness."

How to Avoid Common Home Buying Errors Shopping for a new home is an emotional experience. It is also time consuming and comes with a myriad of details. Some buyers, however, get caught up in the excitement of buying a new home and tend to overlook some items. Their home purchase turns into an expensive process. These errors generally fall into three areas: Paying too much Losing a dream home to another buyer Buying the wrong home When you have a systematic plan before you shop, you will be sure to avoid these costly errors. Here are some tips on making the most of your home purchase: Bidding without sufficient information What price do you offer a seller? Is the seller's asking price too high? Is it a deal? Without research on the market and comparable homes, you could lose thousands of dollars. Before you make that offer, be sure you have researched the market. A Real Estate Professional
PAGE R4
can offer an unbiased opinion on the value of a home, based on market conditions, condition of the home and neighborhood. Without knowledge of the market, your offer could be too much. Or worse, you could miss out on a great buying opportunity. Buying a mismatched home What do you need and want in a home? Sounds simple. Yet, clearly identifying your needs and bringing an objective view to home shopping leaves you in a better position. Sometimes, home buyers buy a home that is too large or too small. Perhaps they did not consider the drive to work, the distance to school, or the many repair jobs waiting for completion. Plan ahead. Use your needs list as a guideline for every home you view. Unclear title Before you sign any document, be sure the property you are considering is free of all encumbrances. As part of their services, a Real Estate Professional can supply you with a copy of the title to ensure there are no liens,
debts, undisclosed owners, leases or easements. Outdated survey Before the purchase is completed, an updated survey is essential. This report will indicate boundaries and structural changes (additions to the house, a new swimming pool, neighbour's new fence which is extending a boundary line, etc.). Unexpected repairs For $300 - $500 a professional inspector will conduct a thorough inspection of the home. This way, you will have an idea of the cost of future repairs. Make the final contract subject to a favourable report. Shopping without pre-approval It only takes a few hours to get mortgage pre-approval. When you are shopping for a home, this gives you
more power. A seller is more likely to consider an offer from a serious buyer. Remember additional costs Besides the funds for the purchase of a home, you’ll need funds for items such as loan fees, insurance, legal fees, surveys, inspections, etc. Rushing the closing Before you sign, ensure that all documentation clearly reflects your understanding and conditions of the transaction. Has anything been forgotten? Don’t rush. You could lose money, financing or even the sale.
