This article is part of a community-wide celebration in honour of the building of the National Historic Site Gur Sikh Temple (est. 1911). In celebration of the efforts of those first Sikh pioneers who helped to build our community, members from throughout the community will be writing weekly articles discussing various issues of Punjabi heritage, culture, youth, spirituality, and religion. If you are interested in contributing, please contact Navneet Sidhu at navneet.sidhu@ufv.ca. The views expressed in this article are merely of the participants and the article does not intend to hurt the religious sentiments of the readers.

Customs and Culture- Learned Traditions over the Years

A Chai Time Discussion

he South Asian Peer Network Association (SAPNA) at UFV organizes Chai Time discussions every month. Chai Time is open to students, faculty, staff and community members; the main focus of topics concern issues of identity and culture. The goal of Chai Time Discussions is to further the understanding of integration issues that South Asians face within the Canadian mosaic by engaging in open dialogues and to broaden society’s understanding of cultural practices, views and belief structures. In addition, SAPNA invites students to discuss their perceptions about cultural practices and customs in the cross-cultural Canadian context.

In September the topic of discussion was Customs and Culture-Learned Traditions Over the Years. The plan was to explore the perceptions that society, especially the younger generation has about the symbols that represent a certain religion or culture. For instance, to what extent do Khanda and Kirpan represent Sikhism and the Burqa represent Islam. Do people really understand the history and meaning of these symbols, and to what extent do they think such symbols are important pieces of identity? This article will highlight the various symbols that were discussed and how they are interpreted.

The discussion began by asking the participants if they think the Khanda, Kirpan and Burqa represent a certain religion. Most people agreed that when they see these symbols they link them to a religion. However, they agreed that most people do not understand the history or significance of these symbols and try to interpret them either in the way they want to or how they have been taught over the years by their family or society. Sometimes it becomes important to question the origin of such symbols and also their purpose in today’s society. For instance, in Sikh religion taking amrit requires an individual to wear the kirpan (sword). Participants discussed

why during the early times, carrying the sword was a necessity. However, it was questioned if today it served the same purpose. If it is a part of religion, why can’t it be made smaller so people cannot misuse it and harm others? There have been some cases where people have abused this precious symbol of Sikh identity. Similarly, khanda is an important part of Sikh identity and it originated to represent the warriors, both Rajputs and Sikhs. Everyone has different views on its origin. However, some youth today display it either as tattoos on their body or on their vehicles. What is it that they want to convey to the public? On the same hand, the origin of burqa (veil) in Muslim women was discussed. Many said that the burqa might have been introduced because it was the need of the times. Women during early days were mal-treated and in order to protect their wives from other Muslim ruling class, it was made mandatory for all women to cover themselves. It is certainly a personal religious belief and should be left up to the individual to practice it. But how many people, in the wider public understand the importance of the burqa? Countries like France have banned women from wearing the burqa and other religious outward symbols. Some argued that the abuse of burqa by certain individuals, where it was used to hide bombs or weapons, might have forced France to take such an action for security reasons. Participants discussed France as being a

country that wasn’t culturally aware or responsive. It was agreed that all the symbols or customs that are followed in most religions had practical reasons when they originated. However, the way we interpret most of them has caused us to lose the real and important significant meaning. They have been passed on to us by our ancestors and each generation interprets them and uses them in their own way. Especially cultures that reside in the Diaspora give more “importance” to symbols because having moved from our countries of origin we seem to cling to whatever has been taught to us without questioning its importance. Participants discussed how we should not “cling” to any symbol and should only use them to the extent that they do not harm anyone. This is the only way in which we can preserve the origin and significance of our customs and symbols and not let them get misused for any social or political reasons. The topic of the Chai Time Discussion will be Vulnerable Brides based on fraudulent marriages across all cultures. The discussion will be facilitated by Vivienne Chin who is the International Justice Consultant for the International Centre for Criminal Law Reform and Criminal Justice Policy in Vancouver. If you would like to participate please visit our calendar at www. ufv.ca/cics and click on the 24th of October for details. Your participation can make a difference.

Lede Family Charitable Foundation. The donation includes $2.5 million that was previously announced for the second Canuck Place Children’s Hospice, as well as an additional $2.5 million for the campus of care that will benefit all three agencies. The City of Abbotsford has contributed land adjacent to the Abbotsford Regional Hospital and Cancer Centre, which will be shared by the three organizations in a campus of care model. The new campus of care will bring together three unique services on one site: · Abbotsford Hospice Society – will provide hospice services for Abbotsford residents as young as 19 years of age. The hospice society’s building will be named Holmberg House in honour of a local resident, David Holmberg Jr., whose family has made a significant contribution to the construction of the hospice. · Canuck Place Children’s Hospice – provides specialized pediatric palliative care services for British Columbia children and support for their families. The second Canuck Place in Abbotsford is underway with completion anticipated by late 2012. The new building is being named Dave Lede House, the lead donor of the capital campaign. · Matthew’s House – will provide respite for children with complex medical challenges. It is the first of its kind in Abbotsford and will offer children a safe, welcoming place where they can stay, while allowing their parents time to rest. Construction is set to begin early in 2012. The Province provided one-time grants of $1.5 million to the new Canuck Place site in 2010 and $3.5 million to Abbotsford Hospice site in 2011. Construction of the campus of care will begin in early 2012, with completion of the Dave Lede Campus of Care expected in 2013.

Quotes: Michael de Jong, Minister of Health – “Abbotsford Hospice Society, Canuck Place and Matthew’s House are three very special agencies that are there for families when they need help at very challenging times.” “Families in Abbotsford and across B.C. will receive better care as a result of the generosity in the community that has pulled together to make the Dave Lede Campus of Care a reality.” David Lede, chair and CEO of Ledcor Group of Companies – “It is a privilege for me and my family to support this campus of care initiative in Abbotsford and to be associated with three amazing organizations that will provide hospice care for both sick children and those later in life in need of help and their families.” Debbie Lehmann, executive director, Abbotsford Hospice Society – “This is an exciting milestone as we move towards the reality of building the first adult hospice residence in Abbotsford. I would like to acknowledge the support of the Holmberg Family David Lede and the Ministry of Health.” Filomena Nalewajek, CEO of Canuck Place Children’s Hospice – “We are very grateful for the generosity of David Lede and the guidance provided by the construction and management staff of Ledcor, who have been instrumental in steering the design of a world-class campus of care.” Doug & Andrea Froese, parents of Matthew after whom Matthew’s House is named – ”We are excited about what the future holds, as we work together with our partners, with government ministries and with our generous donors to create this respite opportunity for children and their families. It’s an honour to be a part of such a unique group bringing much needed care to this community.”

Jagjit Singh: A musician, a mentor, a friend and a benefactor

t is not just his overwhelmingly hearttugging voice and serene rendition of ghazals that will stay with his admirers. For there are far too many accomplishments that grace the legend of Jagjit Singh. Like, how he singlehandedly revived and popularised Ghazals by garnishing them with Geet, creating the ‘nonfilm music’ space in India’s pop culture; or how, 24 years ago, he and wife Chitra, were the first recording artists in India to use digital multitrack recording for their album, Beyond Time. His five-decade-long career gave us 80 memorable albums, in Punjabi, Hindi, Urdu, Bengali,

rayan Sheware, 69, are two such loyalists.

But it is only through the reminiscences of musicians, who worked closely with him from his first studio recording, his first live show, to his very last, that we get a glimpse of a master musician and an incredible human being. Guitarist Clarence Peterson, 74, and percussionist Na-

Peterson recounts of a “young, smart and goodlooking man” approaching him soon after he had finished a live show in the 60s. “Jagjit came up to me and appreciated my guitar playing. He was young, smart and good-looking but wasn’t famous then. ‘Let’s make

and co-musicians,” says Peterson.

The journey was far from smooth. In 1972, the group went to East Africa for an orchestra show, where it was hard for them to get Jagjit, a Ghazal lover, to sing a film song: Mere sapnon ki rani kab aayegi tu. “We had trained him to groove to the music, dance a little on stage, and he pulled it off well. But when the show was over, he protested. ‘Tum log mujhse yeh kya gaane gawa rahe ho yaar... Ab se main sirf ghazlein hi gaunga!’ That was his first and last tryst with film music on stage,” says Peterson.

Though people believed he was, by nature, a serious man, those close to him will tell you about his sparkling sense of humour. “I broke a guitar string once during a live show, and for several shows he would caution me: Yaar, sambhal kar bajaana...phir tod mat dena!”

Even at the height of his success, Singh remained well-grounded. “Jagjit never let success get to his head and treated his old friends just as well after he became famous. He always attributed his success to his friends

Teary eyed, he speaks of how the singer went out of his way to ensure Peterson had a roof over his head. “When I got married in 1979, I was living in a rented house. Jagjit insisted that it was time I have my own house. Without telling me, he looked around, found a house in Chembur and paid the booking amount. That’s the house I live in today.” It did not end at that. About five years ago, when Peterson was bed-

ridden, Singh regularly called to check on him. One day, he quietly left Rs 20,000 in his wife’s bag. Petrson has lost count of the number of shows they played together. The last was on on September 16 at Worli’s Nehru Centre. “I was back on stage with Jagjit after recovering from illness. Jagjit would fondly call me Pritam Singh instead of Peterson. That evening, Chitraji too had come, and he gleefully told her, ‘Dekho chitra, Pritam Singh aaya hai...ab show mein jaan aa jaayega’.” Tabla and dholak player Sheware, too, has been performing live with Singh for 40 years and credits him for turning his life around. “Who knew that a third-standard dropout, from a small Maharashtra village in Konkan, would see the entire world with a genius like him? From

playing for his first album - The Unforgettables in 1976 - I have recorded around 500 ghazals with him and have worked with him on films such as Arth, Saath Saath, Raavan, and even Punjabi films,” he says.

Passports of 59 NRI men seized for harassing spouse

n a bid to help Indian women being cheated It was in the late 60s and harassed by their NRI husbands abroad, that Singh, staying in an Regional Passport Office has confiscated Agripada guest house, here passports of 59 such men, an official was hunting for a tabla player, and happened said. to meet Sheware, a Lavani percussionist from Jalandhar Passport Office had formed a ‘Woman Complaint Cell’ to help women being harassed by Agripada. “Jagjit is one of a kind. When I underwent a heart surgery, I was financially weak. So he paid for it. Thanks to him, I could educate my children and see the world,” he says between sobs.

their NRI husbands in February, Regional Passport Officer Parneet Singh said.

She said a Parliamentary Standing Committee had sought a report about the working of ‘Woman Complaint Cell’ and it had also asked as to how many passports had been seized in such cases.

“We have so far received 198 complains and seized passports of 59 people in these cases. We Even at the height of his are working on other cases and will take action success, Jagjit attributed on them soon,” she said. his rise to friends and co-musicians -Peterson, She said such cells would help provide justice to Singh’s guitarist for 40 women being harassed by their husbands living abroad. years

Abbotsford Police Join E-Comm

he Abbotsford Police Department (APD) has strengthened the communication capabilities of its members and the region, following its move to the E-Comm Wide-Area Radio Network. The City of Abbotsford—the largest municipality in B.C. in area (360 square kilometres) — is also the first municipality outside of Metro Vancouver to join E-Comm’s radio network. Abbotsford police now have access to stronger and wider radio coverage, better radio clarity and a higher level of security. Abbotsford Police Chief Bob Rich sees the transition as critical for officer safety as their previous system was known for coverage gaps — dead zones — where contact was lost with dispatchers or fellow officers. “Radios are a lifeline for police. If I had to give up my gun or my radio, I’d give up my gun,” says Chief Rich. “Communication is just too important to both officer and public safety.”

PAGE 13



More than 200 portable radios have been deployed in Abbotsford and their members will now be able to communicate directly with all police departments in Metro Vancouver. As the recent provincial hockey riot review noted, APD members deployed in support of Vancouver police (VPD) June 15, were not yet on the radio system. Now, if APD or VPD are upporting each other at large-scale events they will be able to communicate with each other because they are both on the E-Comm radio system. This will also be possible with RCMP detachments in neighbouring Langley and Maple Ridge along with members of the intermunicipal emergency response team (MIERT): Delta, Port Moody and New Westminster police departments. “Joining E-Comm’s radio network will streamline our communication with the partner agencies we respond with daily,” says Chief Rich. “It will enhance our response and ability to provide improved service to our citizens.”

E-Comm’s multi-jurisdictional, multi-agency radio network, will replace the department’s 14-year old unsecure VHF radio system. It will offer Abbotsford police better coverage, enhanced security features, greater clarity and improved reliability through an earthquake-resistant infrastructure. “Joining the E-Comm radio network is a cost-effective, long-term investment in public safety for our community,” says Abbotsford Mayor George W. Peary. “The E-Comm radio network will ensure that our officers have the best and most secure communication available to them at all times.” “We’re very pleased to welcome Abbotsford, our 15th police department, onto our radio system,” says David Guscott, E-Comm’s president and CEO. “An integrated emergency communication system is critical to both emergency responder and public safety. We look forward to seeing more agencies join us in the years to come as we work to build the most resilient region possible.”

Minister Fast Undertakes Trade Visit to China to Drive Canada’s Success in Key Priority Market Minister Fast is first federal cabinet minister to fly direct VancouverGuangzhou route

he Honourable Ed Fast, Minister of International Trade and Minister for the AsiaPacific Gateway, today kicked off a trade visit to China to strengthen Canada-China trade and investment ties, meet with Chinese government ministers, showcase Canada’s strengths and capabilities and meet with and assist Canadian businesses seeking out new economic opportunities in this priority market.

“With one in five Canadian jobs linked to trade, our government’s focus is to create jobs and increase prosperity for hardworking Canadians,” said

Minister Fast. “Deepening Canada-China economic ties is key to protecting and strengthening Canadians’ financial security.” While in China, Minister Fast will visit Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Shanghai, Suzhou, Beijing and Qingdao, promoting Canadian capabilities in target sectors such as aerospace, financial and engineering services, high-value-added manufacturing, agri-food, lumber and energy. Minister Fast today travelled on the new China Southern Airlines non-stop flight between Vancouver International Airport and Guangzhou, China. He is the first federal cabinet minister to fly on China Southern Airlines’ new direct flight to Guangzhou since its inauguration in June 2011. In July, China Southern Airlines also launched a direct cargo

service between Vancouver and Shanghai. “These direct transportation routes between Canada and China are important for trade, tourism and overall economic growth in Canada,” said the Minister. “Thanks to these direct passenger and cargo flights, and to our government’s investments in the Asia-Pacific Gateway and Corridor Initiative, we are facilitating the movement of goods, services and people between Canada and the priority Asia-Pacific markets.” To date, the Government of Canada has announced 47 infrastructure projects related to the Initiative valued at over $3.5 billion, with federal investments of more than $1.4 billion, in partnership with the four western provinces, with municipalities and with the private sector.

The Honourable Ed Fast, Minister of International Trade and Minister for the Asia-Pacific Gateway, and He Zongkai, Executive Vice-President, China Southern Airlines, discuss bilateral aerospace cooperation with Dwayne Lucas, Executive Vice-President, Cascade Aerospace.

Canadian companies are accompanying the Minister on his visit to China, including Bombardier Aerospace, Cascade Aerospace, Cameco and Babcock & Wilcox Canada. Minister Fast will also be meeting with several Canadian companies based in China,

such as Magna, Celestica, EXFO and SNC-Lavalin, as well as small and medium-sized enterprises looking to expand in China. China, one of the world’s fastest-growing major economies, is now Canada’s second-largest individual merchandise trading

partner. In fact, Canadian merchandise exports to China more than tripled between 2001 and 2010. The Government of Canada supports Canadian companies in China with 11 service points comprising five diplomatic missions and six trade offices. ■

The Honourable Minister of State for Democratic Reform’s (Tim Uppal) Presentation to the Canadian Study of Parliament Group Importance of Democratic Reform • I am honoured to have been appointed Minister of State for Democratic Reform. The review and improvement of our democratic system is a significant responsibility and I am eager to move forward on our Government’s commitments to strengthen and enhance Canada’s democratic institutions. • Democratic reform is of the utmost importance because it is about how Ca-

PAGE 18

nadians are represented in our democratic institutions. A free and democratic society is based on the premise that the citizen must be heard. • Canada’s political history is a story of progressively giving citizens a greater voice in our political institutions. - The franchise is no longer defined by being a ‘Male British Subject, aged Twenty-one Years or upwards, being a Householder’1, as it was in 1867. 1 Constitution Act, 1867, s. 41.

- Today, the franchise extends to all adult citizens of Canada. Canadian citizenship being the only criterion that matters. - Distinctions based on gender, race, or property no longer serve as markers for the right to vote. - We have independent, free and fair elections; we have a free and healthy press; and we have strong over-sight and regulation of money in our political process. cont’d on next page

Henry Braun seeks Abbotsford Council seat

ong time resident and leading businessman Henry Braun today announced that he will seek an Abbotsford council seat in the upcoming November municipal election. Having grown up in Abbotsford, Braun, 61, is well known to many. He and his wife Velma have been married 40 years, raised their two children here; and have contributed significantly to the community. In addition to a long history of community service and volunteerism Braun is well known as a business leader. He was President and C.E.O. of Abbotsfordbased Pacific Northern Rail Contractors Corp. (now known as PNR Railworks) until his retirement in 2003. PNR employed over 350 people in the railway industry across Canada; including in the construction of rail transit systems in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, Vancouver (Skytrain), the Calgary and Edmonton LRT systems, VIA Rail and Toronto’s Go Transit system. His experience in public service spans more than 20 years and includes such local roles as Commissioner - Abbotsford Police Board, Chair - Abbotsford Economic Development Commission, Vice-Chair - Abbotsford Airport Authority, Director- Abbotsford Community Foundation Agriculture Fund, as well as President - Abbotsford Track and Field Club (now merged with the Valley Royals).

Objectives of Democratic Reform • While we may take some of our democratic rights and freedoms for granted today, these accomplishments are the result of hard work and dedication by those seeking to make us freer and more democratic as a country.

Abbotsford is facing some challenges. I believe my business skills, experience and successful track record of leadership will be a benefit at the Council table.” Braun doesn’t pretend to have all of the answers; however he believes that listening to the citizens of Abbotsford, working together with Council colleagues and leveraging relationships with regional, provincial and federal governments are key elements to ensuring that Abbotsford continues to be an attractive, welcoming city for business investment and a great place to raise a family. In addition to his business interests, Braun raises purebred Hereford cattle on his 40 acre farm in Abbotsford and is a co-owner in a 500 cow/calf cattle ranch in the interior of British Columbia. Henry and Velma are members of the Sevenoaks Alliance Church, where they are actively involved in various ministries including homelessness and addiction recovery. If elected on November 19, 2011, Braun pledges “that I will use my business experience and passion for the community to serve the citizens of Abbotsford to the best of my ability.”

• But our work is never done. We should never become complacent. We should never forget the trust and the integrity on which our democracy relies. We must continue to strengthen our voice as citizens. Check against delivery 6 • In pursuing our democratic reform agenda, our Government seeks to

enhance the voice of Canadians by ensuring that they are effectively represented and expressed in both the House of Commons and the Senate. • Prime Minister Harper is an unwavering advocate for strengthening this voice, promoting increased accountability, effectiveness and represencont’d on page 26

BC Securities Commission launches a three-year “Be Fraud Aware” campaign The British Columbia Securities Commission today launched the first phase of a three-year television, radio and print campaign to educate and warn British Columbians about the dangers of investment fraud. Phase one is primarily focused on the Chinese and South Asian communities who represent 40% and 26%, respectively, of BC’s visible minority population and who have a very low awareness of the BCSC. “Our goal is for people to recognize the signs of investment fraud and to protect themselves and their families from becoming victims of fraud,” said Brenda Leong, Chair, B.C. Securities Commission. Research conducted by the Canadian Securities Administrators confirms that

PAGE 22

48% of British Columbians have been approached with a possible fraudulent investment, less than 25% reported it to the authorities and just over 10% became victims of fraud. Half the victims were solicited through an existing relationship of trust, such as a friend, family member or work colleague. The campaign will include television in Mandarin, Cantonese and Punjabi and radio in Punjabi, Hindi, Urdu, Cantonese and Mandarin, supplemented with full and half page ads. Over the next year, the BCSC will expand the campaign to reach British Columbians across the province. Additionally, the BCSC consumer website, InvestRight, will contain investor protection information and videos in Chinese and Punjabi. The campaign

will run from October to March 2012. “By educating people on how to avoid investment fraud, our “Be Fraud Aware” campaign will help empower British Columbians to protect their dreams. We are also urging people to report to the BCSC information about possible investment frauds to help us shut down these schemes,” concluded Leong. The B.C. Securities Commission is the independent provincial government agency responsible for regulating trading in securities within the province. If you have questions, contact Richard Gilhooley, media relations, 604-899-6713. For public inquiries, call 604 899 6854 or 1 800 373 6393 (toll free).

WinFall Lottery turns to British Columbians for help

n its 16 year history the WinFall Lottery has raised $25 million for Peace Arch Hospital and Community Health Foundation. In its first 15 years, the WinFall Lottery has successfully raised funds for vital medical equipment for Peace Arch Hospital. The ticket sale cut off for the WinFall Lottery is just one week away – Oct. 19th. Ticket sales are regrettably not at the level they need them to be at this point in the lottery. The Foundation is appealing to British Columbians to purchase WinFall Lottery tickets and help bring this lottery to a successful close. The odds of winning are exceptionally good this year. Tickets can be purchased online at www.WinFallLottery.ca or by calling 604·436·5690. Toll-Free: 1·855·205·5690.

PAGE 23



After a one-year break, the WinFall Lottery re-entered the lottery market based on research indicating a strong consumer interest in a lottery such as the WinFall Lottery. The overall prize package is valued at $2.5 million. The grand-prize is valued at $2 million and includes a beautiful home in South Surrey, a luxury car and $50,000 cash OR $1.7 million tax-free cash. The early bird prize is $100,000 tax-free cash (early-bird ticket cut off was Oct. 5th). A successful lottery can generate more than $1 million in income for the hospital. For 15 years, the WinFall Lottery has provided an important source of revenue, which has been used to help fund equipment for virtually every part of the hospital including the emergency, operating rooms and acute care.

“We believe for a successful outcome to the Lottery,” said Peace Arch Hospital and Community Health Foundation executive director, Jackie Smith. “Regardless of the outcome, we will honour our commitments. Vendors will be paid and prizes will be awarded.” She adds, “One hundred per cent of cash donations made to the Foundation will continue to go to their designated projects.”

$5.5M helps immigrants learn English and secure jobs

or the first time in B.C. immigrants will receive advanced workplace-specific, settlement-focused language training to help them find and keep jobs and settle into their communities. The pilot project starting November 2011 is supported by $5.5 million in new funding, and is part of the government’s investment in free English language classes under the English Language Services for Adults (ELSA) program.

With just days left in the WinFall Lottery and with chances of winning being better than ever, the Foundation is appealing to all British Columbians to buy WinFall Lottery tickets and help bring the WinFall Lottery to a successful close.

The new project delivers on the commitment made in Canada Starts Here: The B.C. Jobs Plan to support newcomers and enable them to fill some of the over one million jobs anticipated to open in B.C. over the next decade.

Peace Arch Hospital and Community Health Foundation raises funds and awareness to enhance health and wellness in our community.

Around 19,000 students are expected to benefit from the complete suite of ELSA classes offered in more than 35 communities across the province in 2011. The work-

place-specific curriculum, part of ELSA Levels 6 and 7, will be introduced this fall in Metro Vancouver, Fraser Valley and Southern Vancouver Island. The ELSA program is offered through WelcomeBC – www.welcomebc.ca – the Province’s umbrella of services for immigrant settlement and integration services. An annual budget of $40 million is provided through federal and provincial funding.

· In 2010-11, the Province spent approximately $37 million on ELSA Literacy to Level 5 programs throughout British Columbia. · B.C. continues to be one of Canada’s most popular destinations for new immigrants, welcoming more than 40,000 newcomers each year.

Quick Facts:

· Services through WelcomeBC are provided to more than 100,000 newcomers in 66 communities across the province, by more than 100 service providers.

· Since 2008, more than $160 million in federal and provincial funding has been invested in English language development services for immigrants under WelcomeBC.

· WelcomeBC’s award-winning website recently served its one-millionth client, and is now accessible in several languages, making it easier for immigrants to access vital information.

· The ELSA program is funded through the CanadaBritish Columbia Immigration Agreement. This year over $100 million has been provided for immigration programs.

· By 2019, it’s expected that there will be over a million job openings in the province, and skilled immigrants will play a vital role in filling many of those positions.

Our Accomplishments • Since 2006, we’ve pursued a principled agenda of democratic reform. • In our flagship accountability measure—the Federal Accountability Act— our government took big money out of political contributions. - We eliminated political donations by corporations, unions and associations. - By limiting the potential for undue influence of corporate and big labour interests, these reforms help to ensure that our democratic institutions represent the voice of all Canadians. • We also strengthened electoral process integrity by reducing the possibility for fraud at the polls by passing voter identification measures. These measures strengthen our ability to identify voters

 and make the regulations around the voter identification more robust. • And, we’ve also acted to reform the way elections are called in this country by passing fixed dates for federal elections. Fixed election dates provide greater fairness and predictability in the calling of elections during stable, majority governments. Our Current Priorities • While we have accomplished a lot over the past five years, our work is not done. • So the question follows, what’s next? • It is our view that democratic reform must be pursued in a principled manner, a manner that is consistent with the interests of Canadians and is reasonable, achievable, and realistically successful. • As we highlighted in the June Speech from the Throne, we will pursue

principled reforms that aim to strengthen and enhance our democratic institutions. • My mandate includes three key objectives: Senate reform, strengthening our political financing regime, and restoring fair repres entation in the House of Commons. Senate Reform • Let me begin by outlining our reforms to the Senate. • Our democratic reform objectives are about strengthening and enhancing our democratic institutions so that the voice of Canadians can be heard. • In no institution is there greater need for this voice than in the Senate. • The effectiveness and the legitimacy of our upper chamber suffers because senators have no democratic mandate from Canadians and can serve

terms of up to forty-five years.

democratic consultation processes.

• Over the years, Canadians have consistently said that they want to see change in the upper chamber. As recently as July 2011, a poll found that just one-in-twenty Canadians support the status quo, while 70 percent support the direct election of senators.

• We believe real input by Canadians into their Senate representatives will increase the Senate’s effectiveness and legitimacy in the eyes of Canadians.

• Our Government agrees with Canadians – the status-quo in the Senate is unacceptable. • In June of this year, I introduced the Senate Reform Act, which will limit senator’s terms and aims to encourage provinces and territories to consult citizens on who should represent them in the Senate. • While the act does not require provinces to establish a democratic process, it does require the Prime Minister to consider the names of individuals identified through

• The bill will also limit senators’ terms so that the Senate is refreshed with new ideas on a regular basis. Under the current rules, an individual can be appointed to the Senate at age 30 and serve until age 75. • That means that a senator’s term could span up to 45 years. In our view, it is not acceptable in a modern democracy that an individual could sit in a house of Parliament for such a long time with little accountability to Canadians. • Under the Senate Reform Act, senators appointed after the royal assent of the bill would be subject to a nine-year

term. The nine-year term will also apply to all current senators appointed after October 2008, with their terms ending nine years after the royal assent of this bill. • Although the changes we have proposed are modest, they can only serve to strengthen the legitimacy and effectiveness of the Senate. • Canadians have been clear in saying that they have no appetite for long, drawn-out, constitutional battles. • That is why we are proceeding with Senate reform that is reasonable, is achievable, and is clearly within Parliament’s constitutional authority. Political Financing: Per-Vote Subsidies and Political Loans Accountability Act • A second priority of our democratic reform agenda is to strengthen cont’d on page 30

the rules surrounding our political financing regime. • First, as announced in Budget 2011, we will phase out the per-vote taxpayer subsidies to federal political parties. • We believe that parties receive adequate public support by virtue of their ability to issue tax receipts for contributions and to receive a partial reimbursement of election expenses. • Eliminating the allowance would encourage parties to step up their fundraising efforts. • As the Prime Minister has said, our view is that there is a role for some public finance, but it has to be tied to a party’s own efforts or to the willingness of voters to actually contribute money. • Canadians should be able to choose whether or not they want to fund

political activities, and parties should not rely on hand-outs to fund their political initiatives– they should be making their own efforts to engage with citizens and raise their own money. • This measure is currently before the House as part of the fall budget bill. • Second, we plan to introduce measures to strengthen the rules around political loans. The Federal Accountability Act eliminated contributions by corporations and unions. • It changed the rules to ensure that politicians will not be beholden to those with deep pockets, and unions or corporations who give too much money. However, our law still allows those with deep pockets to lend too much money. • We believe the rules concerning political loans should be consistent with the rules for political con-

tributions. Like hardworking Canadians, parties and candidates should be required to take out loans from financial institutions on a commercial rate of interest. • Ordinary Canadians are expected to pay-back loans under strict rules; the same should apply to politicians. • Political loans should not be a loophole to allow corporations, unions or wealthy individuals to exert undue influence on the political process. • We introduced legislation in the last Parliament to build on our flagship Federal Accountability Act, and we intend to do so again. Representation in the House of Commons • A third priority in our democratic reform agenda is to restore fair representation to the House of Commons. cont’d on page R13

The need to pay more attention to detail in some way can dramatically cut down on the time you like to relax and not have to worry about much. This might also include paying greater attention to your health and general well being. If more exercise is needed it will be the more gentle or alternative types that are better.

You will be very conscious of what you need to let go of in order to concentrate on what is most important to who you want to be. Others can have a powerful effect on you but is it the right effect? You may need to question either their true intentions or what it is they really believe in. You may have presumed differently.

You can feel restless and need to be careful about acting on impulse. Your vision of the future is not clear mainly because you have not fully sorted out the foundations that need to be put in place. This could include family matters and family members. Don’t rely on the promises of others. You are capable of working out the right solutions.

There are a lot of unknowns at the moment, particularly where other people’s desires are concerned. You need to rely on yourself and set about gathering as much information as possible when it comes to anything you want to develop in the future. Once you fully concentrate you will be amazed with what you discover.

On some levels you will feel luck is going your way. You should not be encouraged to take big risks though because on this level you can convince yourself of anything you want to believe. When it comes to financial matters be cautious and do not follow any advice of those who think otherwise. Slow, steady progress is best.

You are especially mentally tuned in and could come across information almost by accident that is just what you need. Someone else may want you to be more relaxed or more generous, mainly because they are restless. Careful contemplation could reveal little things you had not noticed in the past. Follow any feelings you get.

Your wishes could become a reality much more than you realise. Even so there is so much that is hidden from view right now that you need to be patient and wait. There are things that need to be put together and this can be a big job that has little appeal. There is no escape. The sooner you start on it the sooner you will finish.

Others will want to do their own thing and if you are not careful, their frustrations could become yours. Instead, put your mind on your own priorities and what you want to transform about yourself or anything you can personally have control of. Be patient with money matters. Don’t make moves that could see you losing money.

Your future can be as good as you imagine right now. Even so, there are other people to deal with at the moment who can easily confuse you by being contrary. There is some underlying annoyance with them and your logical way of expressing ideas can be aggravating them. Don’t feel you have to lower your standards.

Someone could be more prepared to help than you realise. Your ideas can be expansive. The only way to make something of them in the future is to break things up into stages or parts that fit together as progress is made. The need to keep on keeping on is not something that appeals to you but is nevertheless required.

You could find the ideas of others rather strong and opinionated. This could surprise you and encourage you to retreat rather than interact. If they consider you have been too self indulgent of late, their belief that this should be dramatically cut down may not make you happy. They have some future vision. Find out what it is.

Someone else could be more subtle than you realise in an effort to get things done their way. You will need to pay careful attention to become aware of this.

Our Bollywood page has been moved to the Real Estate Pullout on Page R14 & R15 English tests for foreign doctors in Britain soon

ll foreign doctors, including Indian medics, will have to clear a mandatory English language test before they are allowed to practice in Britain, and work in the National Health Service, under a new proposal mulled by the country’s government, a media report said. According to the proposal, the foreign doctors will have to prove they can speak a good level of English for working in the UK, and the General Medical Council is to also get powers to take action over concerns about

PAGE 44

an overseas medic’s ability to speak the language, the ‘Daily Express’ reported. “There is considerable anxiety among the public about the ability of doctors to speak English properly. After 13 years of inaction from Labour to tighten up language controls, we will amend the legislation to prevent all foreign doctors with a poor grasp of English from working in England. “If you can’t speak adequate English, you can’t treat patients,” UK’s Health Secretary Andrew Lansley was

quoted by the newspaper as saying. The proposal will ensure patients are treated by doctors who they understand and who understand them. It comes in the wake of widespread concern that many patients are struggling to make themselves understood by foreign-born doctors in the hospitals, clinics and surgeries, the report said. Up to 1,500 foreigners working as general practitioners may not have taken English tests, according to research last year.

Major Projects BC website supports job growth

he new Major Projects BC website, launched today, supports ‘Canada Starts Here: The BC Jobs Plan’ by providing information on major resource development projects. The Major Projects BC website provides co-ordinated information for the application and permitting process on major natural resource projects across B.C. This new website makes it easier for investors to apply for the necessary permits, easier for government to make informed decisions and easier for businesses to create jobs. The Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations’ Major Project teams run the website and will also provide:

· Major projects can represent a range of investment – from $50,000 to several billion dollars – the key is the significance of the project to the local community. A smaller project in a small community can generate large economic benefits. · A major project, such as a mine, can create hundreds of jobs throughout its lifecycle. · The majority of B.C. communities depend on the natural resource sectors for jobs.

· Guidance in the preapplication stage.

· The authorizations for the Mount Milligan Mine north of Prince George were processed as a pilot using the co-ordinated major projects model. By bundling authorizations, ministry staff were able to have a single consultation timeframe of 120 days instead of the usual 320 days.

· Integrated co-ordination of the regulatory requirements for major projects.

· Currently more than 200 major projects are underway in B.C.

· Information on current projects through the Major Projects BC website.

Fireworks Ban to be Strictly Enforced

he Abbotsford Fire Rescue , Police Department, and Bylaw Enforcement Division will be actively enforcing the fireworks ban prior to the Diwali celebrations on October 26th and through to Halloween On October 31st.

The Fireworks Bylaw prohibits the sale, possession and discharge of fireworks within the City of Abbotsford. The Fireworks Bylaw and the fireworks permit conditions have been put in place in the City of Abbotsford due to the increase in the number of fires,

property losses and injuries related to fireworks in the last few years. Residents caught with fireworks will be subject to costly fines ranging from $200—$1000. “Community safety is our primary concern. We would like residents and families to plan safe celebra-

tions without fireworks,” said Fire Chief Don Beer. “Families choosing to include fireworks in their celebrations are encouraged to attend organized community displays of fireworks” added Chief Beer. Fireworks related injuries and fires caused by the use of fireworks are an ongoing concern to all emergency responders. The risk of fireworks related injury is highest for teens ages 15 – 19 and children 5 – 9, both are at least two and a half times at risk compared to the general population. Since the City of Abbotsford banned the use of fireworks in 2005, fires caused by illegal use of fireworks have almost been eliminated. The use of fireworks in a controlled environment may be approved with a permit. For more information about the fireworks bylaw, regulations and applications for a fireworks permit can visit www.abbotsford. ca/fire or call the City of Abbotsford Fire Rescue Service at 604-853-3566.

he Abbotsford Police Department is continuing its anti-gang and good choices campaign this year, returning to secondary schools with Operation Vector: Plan your future, not your funeral. Operation Vector fulfills the commitment made by the APD to return and update high school students on the progress made by the police department, the community and young people since the first of the school talks, Operation Impact, launched over two years ago. At that time statistics Canada considered Abbotsford-Mission to be the homicide capital of Canada (according to Census Metropolitan Area numbers). Since then, the community and its young people have decided to chart a different course and take a new direction . . . . a new Vector. Operation Vector offers frank discussions of choices and consequences and utilizes examples of tragedies that resonate with Abbotsford residents and made media headlines. Equally important is that Operation Vector delivers encouragement to youth who have taken their lives in positive directions.■
