Abbotsford Airport Launches YXX Rewards Program

Tragedy Averted In Candle Fire At 2:19 AM on Thursday, December 15, 2011, the Abbotsford Fire Rescue Service (AFRS) responded to a report of an actived fire sprinkler system in a commercial building on Cedar Park Place. Fire crews arrived to find minor fire and smoke damage which the sprinkler system had effectively controlled, preventing the fire from spreading throughout the commercial plaza. The first fire crews on scene were surprised to find that a storage room in the basement had been converted into a makeshift sleeping quarters. The occupant of that room had left a burning candle unattended which ignited some clothing. Heat from the resulting fire

activated the sprinkler system and fire alarm. Abbotsford Fire Rescue Service officials later confirmed that the building had not been approved for any type of residential occupancy. While this incident did not cause major damage, it does illustrate the need for care when using candles – especially during the holiday season. It also shows the effectiveness of properly functioning fire protection systems such as sprinklers and monitored fire alarms.

Top ten tips for staying fall-free this winter Snow season has arrived, along with icy conditions that can lead to an unexpected slip or trip.

alls are the most common cause of injury among British Columbia seniors and are the main reason why older adults lose their independence. Each year, one in three seniors over the age of 65 experience at least one fall and nearly 40 per cent of fall-related hospitalizations involve a hip fracture – which greatly impacts the health and well-being of the senior as well as the B.C. heal th-care system. Winter conditions, such as snow and ice, are known to increase the likelihood of experiencing a fall. Last year, 319 B.C. seniors aged 65 and over experienced fall-related hospitalizations due to ice and snow. According to Canadian Institute of Health Information data, over 70 per cent occurred between January and March. This informa-

tion is often referred to as the tip of the iceberg, as many more fall injuries are treated in clinics, emergency departments and doctors’ offices.

“Doctor, do I need to take any vitamins or supplements?”

ast month I told you of some of the benefits of vitamin D, and so of course my answer is yes, you should at least be taking vitamin D. I hear this question about taking vitamins quite often in my office, and the answer does require some thought. The first thing that I ask is “well, do you eat enough fruits and vegetables?” Many people including some doctors believe that taking vitamins and other supplements are not necessary and that we should get all our nutrients from whole foods, and this, of course, would be the best way in a perfect world. The scientists now tell us that we need to eat 8-10 portions of fruits and vegetables each day. A European study into diet and health surveyed 300,000 people in 8 countries. It found that those who ate 8 or more portions of fresh fruit each day had a 22 percent lower chance of dying from heart disease, and heart disease is the leading cause of death. So are you really eating at least 8 portions of fruits and vegetables? Unfortunately, there is often a problem with the fruits and vegetables that we buy from the grocery stores nowadays. Actually there are several problems. Firstly, studies have shown that the amounts of nutrients in these fresh fruits can be significantly less than the amounts that were found in the same fruits and vegetables 30 years ago. Often the ground used to grow these foods has been used repeatedly and so does not contain all the nutrients that the plants should have. This is also made worse by the pesticides and herbicides used to grow these crops since these leech out to nutrients in fruits and vegetables further. The pesticides and herbicides are also absorbed into some of these foods and these have been found to be detrimental to our health. When fresh fruits are picked and eaten in the same day they contained their highest amounts of nutrients. Unfortunately, much of our food has to travel across the country or even from another country before he gets to our mouths, and during that time nutrients are degraded within the fresh food. Often fresh food is irradiated or x-rayed when it comes across the border and is too reduces the nutrients. And then there is cooking which again destroys the nutrients in vegetables. The next question is often “which vitamins should I buy?” Often you

PAGE 6

will end up going to the local store and purchasing a multivitamin. Your doctor or might even recommend, for example, that you buy separate vitamins like for example “vitamin E.” Unfortunately, unless that doctor has been looking at the latest research and is familiar with supplements this might not be the best advice. For example, he may not know that there are actually 8 different types of vitamin E, and the one that is usually sold in stores is called alpha-tocopherol. This has actually been found to be harmful to your health. Another example is that many people are now taking fish oils due to the recent research on all their health benefits. I have seen many patients have been taking Omega 3-6-9 believing that they are doing something good for their heart or their blood vessels. Current research has shown that Omega 6 fish oils are actually more likely to cause inflammation in your body and so this type of fish oil is actually bad for your health. Fish oils can also contain other toxins such as heavy metals, and so unless the fish oil has been manufactured by a company with high quality standards that remove these toxins, that particular supplement would be a poor choice. Often the choice of purchasing a supplement can be based on the old saying “you get what you pay for” in terms of quality, and so you have to weigh your pocketbook against your health in most cases. Invest in your health first because without your health you may not be worth the amount of money that you have in your bank. If your health care provider has an interest in supplements he or she should be able to guide you. Next month, I’ll tell you a little bit more about the benefits of fish oils.

Government of Canada Supports Girls in Surrey, BC

n behalf of the Honourable Rona Ambrose, Minister of Public Works and Government Services and Minister for Status of Women, Ms. Wai Young, Member of Parliament for Vancouver South, today announced Government of Canada support for a project to develop leadership skills and reduce the risk of violence among girls in Surrey, British Columbia. “Our government is pleased to support projects that call on all Canadians – women and men, girls and boys – to work collaboratively to end all forms of violence against women,” said Minister Ambrose. “We are proud to partner with the YWCA on this promising new project, which will empower girls preparing to move from elementary to high school to take charge of their lives, contribute to their communities and realize their full potential.” “This innovative new project, which aims to reduce violence against girls and turn vulnerability into empowerment, will have a lasting impact on participants, their families and the Surrey community,’’ said Ms. Young.

The YWCA Metro Vancouver is receiving $259,550 from the Women’s Program of Status of Women Canada for its Leadership Program for Girls in Surrey. The project will develop leadership skills among Grade 7 girls who are preparing to enter high school in a challenging urban environment where gender-based violence poses a significant risk to their safety and ability to succeed. With the support of local grassroots organizations and community leaders, and with the engagement of parents, the YWCA Metro Vancouver seeks to empower and reduce violence in the lives of these young girls. For over 100 years, the YWCA Metro Vancouver has worked to foster economic independence, wellness and equal opportunities for local women and girls. One of the city’s largest nonprofit organizations, the YWCA Metro Vancouver works to create a healthy community by providing programs and services to over 50,000 people each year. “We are pleased to have the support of the Government of Canada for this project in Surrey, which is inspired

by the success and the best practices of two other programs underway in Vancouver,” said Janet Austin, Chief Executive Officer, YWCA Metro Vancouver. “The new project for Grade 7 girls will use a unique intergenerational and intercultural learning model that includes mentorship, youth volunteers, education on issues affecting girls and awareness training. This groundbreaking program will address girls’ concerns about entering the complex world of high school, examine issues of gender and violence against women, and help the girls to define attitudes and behaviours that are fundamental to healthy relationships.” The Government of Canada is committed to supporting projects that yield concrete results for women and girls in Canada while strengthening families, communities and the country. Through Status of Women Canada, the government’s support for community-based projects has nearly doubled since 2006-2007, growing from $10.8 million to close to $19 million, its highest level ever.

Ken’s Corner

would like to congratulate the Sikh community for the official opening of the Sikh Heritage Museum at the Gur Sikh Gurdwara which took place last Saturday. My father and several of my close friends enjoyed the celebrations. I look forward to re-visiting the landmark temple where I played as a child. A year ago I was interviewed on CBC Radio, The Early Edition with host Rick Cluff concerning being denied access to a Christmas party because I was South Asian. During the program, he asked me whether or not I believed that Facebook was a contributing factor towards the cultural divide in the Lower Mainland. I didn’t see this as being the case, however, I do see this as an avenue in which cultural polarization can be addressed. I decided to do some quick research through some of my friend’s Facebook lists to see what kind of cross cultural friendships are being developed through a click of a button. I discovered that most cultures actually stick within themselves (especially youth) and some of my friends who are over the age of 30 seemed to show some improvements in how they reached out on social media. If we plan on bridging the cultural divide in the future, we must realize that social media is one platform that has never been explored. On another note, Facebook can be very self absorbing at times. People become caught up talking about themselves rather than focusing on others. For example, in most of my personal postings, I found that it is the same dozen or so people who leave a comment or give me a “thumbs up”. It’s kind of discouraging when I have over a 1000 Facebook friends/ acquaintances that have the potential of reaching out and choose not to. I have made every effort throughout the years on Facebook to reach out to almost every contact at least once in the year.

PAGE 10

Jassi Hera, a grade 12 student from Rick Hansen Secondary School shared these comments: “I personally think everyone should get along with each other. We only live once, why not get to know some new people and even learn about their culture. Facebook is one of the best ways to actually meet new people.” I have some sad news to share, the tree that was planted on May 18th to celebrate the Cycling4Diversity ride to Victoria which was vandalized in August did not make it. I would like to thank the District of Mission for doing their best to save the tree. Another tree is scheduled to be planted in the spring as a replacement. Since the completion of the ride, the momentum hasn’t stopped. We have some exciting announcements to be made in the New Year. Sarina Di Martino Derksen, the Executive Coordinator is planning on revealing the schedule, a new logo, as well as other events scheduled to take place. One of the many highlights of this trip was when the winner of the Cycling4Diversity bike offered to sell the bike. Di Martino Derksen stepped up and advised me that this would be a wonderful opportunity to help out the winner as well as keep the bike for the rides to come. Di Martino Derksen personally purchased the bike and will be loaning the bike each year to the team.

SFU scientists help tackle forest pests with genomics

imon Fraser University Beedie School of Business professor Jeremy Hall is leading the social science research component in a new project dedicated to significantly reducing forest pests in Canada, and ultimately globally.

Hall leads one of several research teams involved in Genomics-Based Forest Health Diagnostics and Monitoring, a new $4.2 million project funded by Genome British Columbia and Genome Canada. Stelvia Matos, an adjunct professor, and Vernon

Bachor, a sessional lecturer, in SFU’s Beedie School of Business are on Hall’s team. The project will use genomics to develop a DNA-based diagnostic test to detect and monitor pests that do $2 billion worth of damage to Canada’s forests annually. Government and forest industry scientists and policy makers have been pushing for better ways of diagnosing forest pests for years because the conventional method of visual inspection can’t catch many microscopic pathogens. Hall, an expert on radical technology development and sustainable development innovation, and his team will examine current public policies and societal issues around the use genomics in forestry management. The SFU team will also recommend commercial opportunities for outcomes of the research.

PAGE 14

“In addition to overcoming technological hurdles, successful innovation also includes understanding the often complex interactions among commercial, organizational and social issues,” says Hall. “Understanding such issues is especially useful at early phases, when there are greater options in how the technology can be developed. “Our role is to provide scientists with early knowledge about the way technology can be developed to make it more commercially attractive to users. We also help technology developers

realize benefits from their investment and avoid detrimental social impacts and/or controversies that could hinder its diffusion.” Richard Hamelin, senior research scientist at Natural Resources Canada, will lead the development of DNAbased diagnostic testing that is expected to generate annual economic benefits in the tens of millions of dollars. The testing will aim to stop potentially detrimental pathogens from spreading through forests and assist the forest and nursery industries with plant and product certification.

Ensuring health-care spending can be sustained in B.C.

edical Services Plan premiums are one way the Province of British Columbia helps provide increased investments in health-care services to meet growing demand. Revenue from these premiums currently funds about 11 per cent of total health-care costs in B.C. After seven years of unchanged fees for provincial health-care coverage, government announced in the September 2009 Budget Update that MSP premiums would rise by six per cent in January 2010, 2011 and 2012 to support rising health-care spending. Any future changes would be announced in future budgets. Maximum monthly premium rates effective Jan. 1, 2012 will increase by $3.50 per month to $64.00 for single persons, by $7.00 per month to $116.00 for two-person families and by $7.00 per month to $128.00 for families of three or more persons. There are built-in protections for lower-income British Columbians to help ensure the MSP program is fair. As of Sept. 25, 2011, there were 959,131 B.C. residents subsidized by the MSP premium assistance programs. More than 800,000 individuals and families pay no MSP premiums at all, and the rest receive partial subsidies. MSP Premium Assistance was enhanced in January 2010. The enhancement was designed to ensure 2012 MSP rates for those receiving premium assistance remain lower than they were in 2009. As a result of this enhancement, approximately 180,000 British Columbians saw their premium costs reduced or eliminated.

MSP premiums support increased spending in areas such as improved health-care facilities, additional equipment, more surgeries and increases to the PharmaCare budget. Increased health funding, including MSP premiums, continues to support world-class advancements for health care in British Columbia, including the longest life expectancy in Canada, the lowest heart attack rate in Canada and the country’s lowest cancer mortality rate. Budget 2011 invests almost $2 billion in sustaining front line service delivery over three years, an increase of more than 13 per cent compared to 2010-11. This includes: · $1.4 billion for services delivered by health authorities and other service delivery partners, including acute-care services, community and homebased services, assisted living and residential-care services, mental health and addictions services, health promotion, disease prevention and other public-health services. • $438 million for the Medical Services Plan to fund increased volumes of physician and laboratory services, and recruitment and retention of specialists and family physicians, particularly in rural and remote communities. • $144 million for PharmaCare for coverage of new drugs and volume and price increases for prescription drugs. Examples of recent capital projects underway include: · New $62.2-million mental-health facility at Lions Gate Hospital, which includes $38.2 million from the Province. · Groundbreaking for a clinical-support building – part of a $90.5-million

phase 1 redevelopment – as part of the bigger BC Children’s and BC Women’s Hospitals project. · A $2.25-million expansion of a kidney dialysis clinic in Cumberland on Vancouver Island. · A new, $512-million Surrey Memorial Hospital expansion project got underway with an acute-care tower and new emergency department. · Construction of the $47-million East Pandosy Clinical Support Building commenced as part of the $448 million Interior Heart & Surgical Centre project. Government spending on health care in 201112 will be almost 42 per cent of the total provincial budget, accounting for $17.5 billion – an increase of 86 per cent from $9.4 billion in 2000-01. Over the next three years, total government spending on health is planned to rise to a record $18.5 billion by 2013-14 – up $9.1 billion from 2000-01. The budget for PharmaCare is one of the fastest growing areas in health care. Since 2001, the PharmaCare budget has increased by more than 74 per cent, from $660 million to more than $1.1 billion in 2011-12. The total number of surgeries received by British Columbians in 2010-11 was 514,000, of which around half were never placed on the waiting list. This is an increase of 22 per cent from 421,000 surgeries in 2000-01. Since 2001, almost $7 billion has been spent on capital projects in British Columbia. Over the next three years, British Columbia’s health-care system will benefit from investments such as new medical equipment and modernized health facilities as part of a $2.1-billion health-sector capital plan.

BC invests over $13M in new skills training programs

rom software systems development and auto refinishing, to underground mining, shellfish aquaculture and a host of other programs, the B.C. government is investing over $13 million in new employment skills training in regions throughout British Columbia. As part of ‘Canada Starts Here: The B.C. Jobs Plan’, over 50 skills training programs are being delivered by 20 post-secondary institutions throughout the province under the government’s Employment Skills Access Initiative (ESA). This project is funded within government’s existing fiscal plan. Through ESA, eligible British Columbians are provided with tuition-free, group-based training at public, postsecondary institutions to prepare them for entry or re-entry into the labour force. ESA skills training programs are primarily focused on preparing participants for entry-level employment in industries, sectors or occupations that are currently experiencing or are projected to experience labour or skills shortages.

PAGE 18

Training programs are expected to be at least three weeks in duration, to a maximum of 12 months, with an emphasis on programs that provide participants with provincially or industry-recognized credentials. For occupations with established provincial standards for training and certification, training programs must follow and meet those standards. Participants in programs must be unemployed individuals who have not established an Employment Insurance claim in the past three years, or five years in the case of maternity/parental leave. The Employment Skills Access Initiative is funded through the CanadaBritish Columbia Labour Market Agreement (LMA). Over the next decade, British Columbia is projected to have over one million job openings. A new wave of economic growth stimulated by the BC Jobs Plan will further increase the number of jobs. The BC Jobs Plan will ensure the over $500 million provided annually for labour market and training programs is targeted to meeting regional and industry labour market needs.

Quotes: Honourable Diane Finley, Minister of Human Resources and Skills Development – “Our Government’s top priority is jobs and the economy. To achieve our goal, we invest in provincial initiatives, like Employment Skills Access, so unemployed British Columbians can develop the skills they need to get good jobs and succeed.” Pat Bell, Minister of Jobs, Tourism and Innovation – “This program is another example of our commitment to enhance skills training throughout the province as we work to build an increasingly skilled workforce to meet present and future labour market demands and to provide British Columbians with access to new employment opportunities.” Naomi Yamamoto, Minister of Advanced Education – “Higher education is key to our province’s growth and prosperity as we develop the workers of the future. Under the BC Jobs Plan, we’re working with our quality post-secondary institutions to increase learning and employment opportunities, building the foundation for a stronger economy.”

First Parent and Grandparent Super Visa Issued Two Weeks After Launch

he first Parent and Grandparent Super Visa has already been issued, Jason Kenney, Minister of Citizenship, Immigration and Multiculturalism announced today.

“We pledged to process the Parent and Grandparent Super Visa in less than eight weeks,” the Minister noted. “We’ve issued the first of the Super Visas in just two weeks and we remain committed to reuniting families through the Super Visa in a timely manner.” The Parent and Grandparent Super Visa was launched as an option for parents and grandparents of Canadian citizens and permanent residents looking to visit their families in Canada for an extended period of time. The process for getting a Super Visa is simple and straightforward. Super Visa seekers use the same application form as applicants for the standard six-month visitor visa. Applicants for the Super Visa must also submit proof that the host child or grandchild meets a minimum income, demonstrate that they have purchased comprehensive Canadian medical insurance and undergo the Immigration Medical Examination. The first Super Visa was issued at the Canadian mission in Manila on December

14, 2011, two weeks after CIC began accepting applications. “With the Super Visa, we have taken a common sense approach that allows parents and grandparents to spend extended periods of time with their loved ones in Canada, while at the same time, acting responsibly in protecting Canadian taxpayers,” Minister Kenney added. “I’m pleased that the response to this program has been so positive.” Until the Super Visa was launched on December 1, 2011, visitors to Canada usually could only visit for six months at a time and visitors who wished to stay longer had to apply for extensions and pay a new fee every six months. With the Parent and Grandparent Super Visa, eligible parents and grandparents will pay fewer fees and have greater certainty that they will be able to enjoy the company of their families in Canada for a longer period of time. Building a stronger Canada: Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) strengthens Canada’s economic, social and cultural prosperity, helping ensure Canadian safety and security while managing one of the largest and most generous immigration programs in the world.

Chongqing, Bangalore and Canada; Reform will lead way to success

David MacKinnon

Chongqing, China, has a population of 30 million – almost as big as Canada’s - and is the biggest mega city on the planet. New factories are springing up daily. Entrepreneurship is evident everywhere. Bangalore, India, is huge also and populated by world leaders in IT, aerospace and industrial research. Its business leaders are writing many of the rules of a new industrial revolution. The extraordinary performances of these cities and others like them have lifted hundreds of millions of people out of poverty. The global impact of this is startling. China and India are on track to be the first and third largest economies in the world in less than a generation. Both countries still have huge problems. Corrup-

PAGE 22

tion, environmental degradation, political stresses and governance failures are all obvious. However, their track records suggest that the big story for India and China is how far they have come and how far they could go.

These changes are very positive in many respects. There are new possibilities for partnership, new markets and new opportunities arising from the Indian and Chinese communities in Canada. As well, more comfort and economic security for 40% of humanity should appeal to us all. There is, however, the problem of how we compete with these giants. While we are partly protected from competitive forces by the resource wealth of Western Canada, we are exposed because of economic weakness in Central Canada and the longstanding lack

of competitiveness in Atlantic Canada.

The determinant of how well we do in competing with businesses in Bangalore and Chongqing will be our productivity and here there is cause for serious concern. Our productivity performance is poor. For thirty years, policy makers have said that businesses need to do more research, innovate more and manage change better if we are to turn this situation around. The fact that these prognostications have been made for many years and that governments and businesses have acted on them with little result should cause us to look deeper. When we look deeper, we will almost certainly find that outdated public policies and institutions are a large part of the problem and that to com-

pete against places like Chongqing and Bangalore; we need to reinvent important public policies and institutions. What needs reinvention? We need to reinvent healthcare because it is destroying the capacity of governments to fund the infrastructure necessary for better productivity.

This reinvention could include physician payment systems based on clinical treatment guidelines, enhanced scope for health professionals other than physicians, elimination of the public delivery clause in the Canada Health Act and a debate on end of life care. We need to reinvent the intergovernmental transfer system. It encourages careless finance, discourages labour mobility and has damaged competitiveness in recipient ju-

risdictions and Canada as a whole.

This could be done by shifting GST revenue to provinces in return for an end to transfers, adopting Australia’s fairer method of calculating equalization and publishing benchmarks on program comparability by province. We need to reinvent governments so that they become entrepreneurial and nimble. Canadian governments have become very centralized, the opposite of what needs to happen. Governments could be made more entrepreneurial by putting the operations of governments under boards that operate within a centralized policy framework but which are guided by citizens with appropriate qualifications. Governments should also build the broadest possible network of public-

private partnerships so that the knowledge of the private sector can be brought to bear on public problems. We should reinvent some aspects of our education and employment support systems. We often have jobs that go unfilled because people with the requisite skills are not available. To correct this, we urgently need to modernize EI, update our antiquated apprenticeship programs and renew our community college systems.

The important point is that India and China have reinvented themselves and economic leadership has shifted to them. We must do some of the same if we are to effectively partner and compete with them.

Getting things done for Canadians: Harper Government delivering on rep-by-pop commitment

he Harper Government today welcomed the passage of the Fair Representation Act through the House of Commons. This legislation, now before the Senate, will move every single Canadian towards representation by population. “The status-quo results in British Columbians becoming more and more underrepresented in the House of Commons simply because they live a in highgrowth province,” said Minister of State for Democratic Reform Tim Uppal. “If nothing is done, this problem will become much worse. Clearly, this is not fair – every Canadians’ vote, to the greatest extent possible, should carry equal weight.” The Fair Representation Act updates the formula allocating House of Commons seats to provinces to better account for population growth and trends. Under the legislation: •

Ontario will receive an additional 15 seats

•

British Columbia will receive an additional 6 seats

•

Alberta will receive an additional 6 seats

The legislation also fulfils a platform commitment to prevent Quebec from becoming underrepresented relative to its population, since the purpose of the bill is to move every single province towards representation by population. To this end, Quebec will receive three new seats which will be proportionate to its share of the population. “Our province has been underrepresented in Ottawa for too long,” said Minister of Canadian Heritage and Official Languages James Moore. “Thanks to this legislation, British Columbia’s percentage of seats in the House of Commons will more closely reflect its share of Canada’s population. This is good news for British Columbians.” The Fair Representation Act also includes amendments to the Electoral Boundaries Readjustment Act that streamline the boundary readjustment process. The boundary readjustment process begins February 8th, 2012 and, if the Fair Representation Act is enacted before this date, is projected to be complete within two years and five months.■

Comments requested on ALR on-farm energy creation The Ministry of Agriculture is inviting British Columbians to contribute to the development of two bylaw standards related to the creation of on-farm energy. One bylaw standard will cover anaerobic digestion on farms in the Agricultural Land Reserve (ALR) and the other will cover combined heat and power co-generation in greenhouses in the ALR. Both systems present farmers possibilities to improve operating efficiency. Anaerobic digestion systems use a combination of manure and organic materials to produce renewable energy in the form of methane gas. This methane gas can be upgraded to natural-gas quality or converted to electricity. A discussion paper and survey propose: • Minimum farm size on using a system. • Restrictions on the materials and their origins that can be used in the system. • Planning, administrative and record-keeping requirements. • Criteria for anaerobic digestion activities that would not require local-government rezoning. This discussion paper and survey are available at: http://www.agf.gov.bc.ca/resmgmt/sf/ anaerobic_digestion_in_ALR/index.htm Greenhouse growers use natural gas-based combined heat and power co-generation systems to produce electricity, heat and carbon dioxide, which are used to fertilize greenhouse crops. A discussion paper and survey propose: • Requirements that cogeneration production be commensurate with the heat demand on the farm and/or total greenhouse size. • Minimum operating efficiency. • Sites and management that minimize noise impacts. • Criteria for cogeneration activities that would not require local-government rezoning. This discussion paper and survey are available at: http://www.agf.gov.bc.ca/resmgmt/sf/ co_generation_in_ALR/index.htm Bylaw standards are not legally binding. Rather, they provide interested local governments with criteria on a topic, should they be interested in developing a bylaw. The call for public comments follows the distribution of the ministry’s discussion papers to local governments and stakeholders. Respondents are advised to familiarize themselves with the respective discussion paper prior to participating in the survey. The surveys will be open until March 15, 2012. All comments will be included in the ministry’s consideration in developing the bylaw standards.

Monday and Tuesday are totally romantic — so, naturally, that’s all you can think about. Oh sure, you’re having successes at work and socially, impressing people with your ability to spin off into intellectual debates about this or that. But what’s really going on in your life is this romantic thing. Wednesday through Friday, the stars see you entering unfamiliar terrain. You’re trying to be confident and careful at the same time, which is a hard balance to strike. This weekend, you and you-know-who do something together and have a roaring good time.

Your home life is a source of some agitation on Monday and Tuesday. Someone else — the person you live with, the landlord, a neighbor — is not communicating very well, or else they’re communicating very well but you don’t like what they’re saying. It only follows that Wednesday through Friday are marked by a sense of upheaval, of not knowing what you’re going to do next, of being unsure. Saturday and Sunday, as weird as it feels, do something for yourself. Take yourself to the movies. Or to the mountains. Or to a spa. You deserve some real relaxation.

It’s so weird that this new romantic interest was, until recently, just one of your friends. It’s hard to get your head around. It has left your mutual friends scratching their heads. But — whoa — it’s fun, too. Monday and Tuesday are basically an extended 48-hour date, and Wednesday through Friday, even though you’re not together as much, you can tell from text messages and the like that your minds are in the same place. This weekend is crazily romantic. Passion and adventure are in the stars. Travel, too. Get in the car and start driving. You can figure out where you’re going while you’re on the road.

There’s a good chance that you’ll buy something you don’t need or want on Monday or Tuesday. So why the purchase? Your friends have something to do with it, but you can’t lay all the blame on a few excitable pals. You’re indecisive in general this week, which results in some funny mishaps. Wednesday through Friday, you’re analyzing everything, including your own actions. You’re in listening mode. This weekend, if you find yourself in a tense social situation, do something slightly risky. Be daring.

On Monday and Tuesday, you’re incredibly flirtatious — although, in your defense, you’re just trying to keep up with this other incredibly flirtatious person. You wouldn’t want to come across as uninterested. But try to strike a balance. You don’t want to be looking over a friend’s shoulder as they’re talking — that’s just rude. Wednesday through Friday you’re in a strangely possessive mood; you want more, more, more. There must be some lack somewhere in your world. Think about what that might be this weekend.

For some reason on Monday and Tuesday, you have a hard time saying, ‘Okay, here’s what I’m going to do’ — and actually doing it. All of these other things get in the way — distractions, compelling counterarguments, weird demands. The only way to handle this is to be easygoing about it. Just don’t worry too much one way or the other. It’s all going to work out in the end. Wednesday through Friday, people are drawn to you like you won’t believe. Saturday and Sunday, your instincts can’t be beat. Finally! You make a few decisions you can get behind.

You’re a cause for celebration on Monday and Tuesday. Everyone’s paying you compliments, giving you unprompted hugs and sighing about how you’d be perfect for dating their relatives. Oh, and they’re picking your brain, too. Your opinion — defined by a strong sense of justice — means more to other people than ever. Oddly enough, Wednesday through Friday see you turning inward, indulging your introspective side. It’s just more fun staying at home listening to music and sitting in your big chair than it is being social. No worries — you’ll feel like coming out again this weekend.

On Monday and Tuesday, you have lots of energy, but it doesn’t seem to help with the weird issues plaguing you. The phone call you’ve been waiting for doesn’t come until the second you get up from your desk. You keep forgetting to send an important email. And the boss is cranky. In the second half of the workweek, try to detach yourself from the messy particulars and look at the bigger picture. This will relax you and also help you see what’s most important. Saturday and Sunday, you start to wonder if your life goals are possible. Of course they are! Be confident. Stick to your guns.

You and someone you don’t normally chat with spend some time alone together on Monday or Tuesday — possibly on an elevator, possibly waiting for a bus … something unplanned like that. During this talk, you find you have some random thing in common. The weird things that people connect over can be funny. Wednesday through Friday, you could use a few more of those moments of social connection; according to the stars, you feel kind of weird, sluggish, even lonely. Whatever the reason for your moodiness, just wait for the weekend. It’s more than exciting: Lots of friends and new faces figure strongly.

Someone owes you something, and you’re put in the uncomfortable position on Monday or Tuesday of figuring out how to ask for it. It might not be money. And it might not be worth asking for. Thing is, you don’t really need this thing that’s owed to you, but you don’t want to come across as a doormat. Life is complicated, and finding a balance isn’t always easy. You’re turning this doormat issue over in your mind Wednesday through Friday. In the end, it may be wiser not to involve yourself in messes you don’t need. This weekend, luck is on your side. You must be doing something right!

On Monday and Tuesday, you’re in a good mood, and it can’t really be explained. If you’re at work and your coworkers are doing that lazy thing, you fire them up. If you’re at the gym and your workout pal wants to end early, you give an electrifying speech on the importance of not giving up. Wednesday through Friday, your intensity level remains high. All of this vigor is great, but it might inspire more heated emotions than you necessarily want to deal with. It may even bring out your sensitive side. Saturday and Sunday, don’t let anyone pull the wool over your eyes. Ask lots of questions.

You’re stuck inside your own head on Monday and Tuesday, unsure why things aren’t going quite the way you’d like. And then it hits you: You have to get outside your head! The second you look at things from someone else’s point of view, thunder strikes. Everything changes. Things become so much easier. You get what you want, almost immediately. Wednesday, Thursday and Friday are less instantaneously satisfying; in fact, there’s noting instantaneous about them. But slowness has its virtues. On Saturday and Sunday, it’s time to strike out into the wilderness. Who’s up for snowboarding?

Gas Tax Funding to Upgrade Bailey Landfill

Unique gas extraction system will improve air quality

hanks to $3.5 million from the federal Gas Tax Fund, residents across the region will benefit from improved air quality with the ad dition of a new gas extraction system at the Bailey Landfill. “Our Government is proud to invest in Chilliwack’s next-generation gas extraction system, a project that will contribute to the economy and improve the environment through innovative technologies,” said Mark Strahl, MP for Chilliwack– Fraser Canyon, on behalf of the Honourable Denis Lebel, Minister of Transport, Infrastructure and Communities. “Through programs like Canada’s Gas Tax Fund, we are supporting key infrastructure projects that create local jobs and enable our communities to continue to grow and prosper.” In addition to innovative gas extraction technology, this project will see the design and construction of a trench network in the southern and northeast areas of the site between 2011 and 2014. This project will result in cleaner air by reducing air pollution and helping lower greenhouse gas emissions.

hope that someday a way can be found to use the gas rather than simply flaring it.” “Thanks to our federal and provincial governments and the UBCM, this grant from the Gas Tax Fund will cover the full estimated cost of the project,” said Chilliwack Mayor Sharon Gaetz. “This new system will help reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve air quality across the region, both of which are priorities for Chilliwack residents.” The Gas Tax Fund is a tripartite agreement between Canada, British Columbia and the Union of British Columbia Municipalities (UBCM) that delivers infrastructure funding to local governments primarily for capital projects that lead to cleaner air, cleaner water or reduced greenhouse gas emissions. Each year, the Government of Canada provides $2 billion from the Gas Tax Fund to municipalities across Canada. UBCM administers the Gas Tax Fund in British Columbia in collaboration with Canada and British Columbia. On October 4, 2011, the Government of Canada tabled legislation to ensure the Gas Tax Fund will provide permanent funding to municipalities beyond 2014.

“There is broad support for reducing greenhouse gas emissions from local government operations, but there is a cost to achieving this goal,” said “This is an example of how the Gas Tax Fund UBCM President Heath Slee. “Local governments is supporting innovative technology, in this case in BC appreciate federal investment through the helping to deal with methane gas from the landfill,” Gas Tax Fund to fund green technology for our 11 www.contactpages.ca said Barry Penner, MLA for Chilliwack-Hope. “I facilities.”

Salman continues winning streak in year 2011 From He-Man to funny man, from flamboyant to sombre - Bollywood’s top notch actors have shone on the silver screen in various avatars and also kept the cash registers ringing. IANS lists the top 10 actors of the year

1) Salman Khan - He should be titled hit khan. If Bollywood’s knight in shining armour bailed the industry out in 2009 and

PAGE 44

2010, he boosted the box office business this year too with “Bodyguard” and “Ready”. In both, neither the content was premium, nor were the performances superlative, but what helped the actor stand out were the big bucks his films yielded at the box office, strengthening his position as a bankable star. 2) Aamir Khan: What one missed in Salman Khan’s films was prominently present in Aamir Khanstarrer “Dhobi Ghat”. Aamir wowed his fans as a lonely painter in the directorial debut of his wife Kiran Rao, who deftly handled a bouquet of sto-

daring to produce adult comedy “Delhi Belly” and the film’s success further strengthened his image in volatile Bollywood.

ries, travelling across various sections of society in the lanes and bylanes of Mumbai. The actor had just one release, that too, consciously designed for niche audiences, but everyone eulogised it, saying, “Wow! What a performance! What an actor!”

3) Ranbir Kapoor: If his great grandfather, grandfather and parents are admired and respected for their cinematic genius, Ranbir Kapoor has proved that he is a

If that were not enough, Aamir was admired for true torch-bearer of the Kapoor khandan. The youngster excelled in his only release “ Rockstar”, which was marred by a bad script. His role required a range of emotions and he stood out in every scene and kept the audiences hooked.

chalk and cheese. If the former saw him as a flamboyant underworld don, the latter featured him as a college principal fighting for the rights of students. In terms of business, neither were money spinners, but as far as acting is concerned, Amitabh is Amitabh. He was terrific in both the roles and critics gave him a thumbs up. 6) Farhan Akhtar: When there is a huge star cast, it is not easy to make an impression. But Farhan Akhtar did that in “ Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara”, which also starred Abhay Deol and Hrithik Roshan. The art of acting is all about sensitivity, emoting, feelings -and Farhan got them all right. 7) Hrithik Roshan: Usually seen in over-the-top roles, Hrithik Roshan for

4) Shah Rukh Khan: Romance is his forte! But this time Shah Rukh Khan donned the garb of a superhero in “RA.One” to woo his fans. Though the film was not appreciated much for its content, his fans liked him as a geek scientist and as a superhero. He also earned praise for the use of technology, innovative marketing and promotional techniques to promote his product.

the first time did a role that was slightly offbeat and closer to reality. If “Kites” didn’t allow him to fly high in the sky, his performance in “Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara” helped him unleash his potential as an actor.

5). Amitabh Bachchan: Retirement? No way, says Big B. Instead he is grabbing central roles at the age of 69 and this year too he came out with two films “Bbuddah Hoga Tera Baap” and “Aarakshan” - as different as

8) R. Madhvan: An NRI, who belongs to a middleclass family, returns home to find a wife. He encounters a drunken girl, who is not interested in marrying him. But her spirit is such that he falls head over heels in love with her and

it becomes heartbreaking for him to let her go with some other guy. Madhavan not only suited the role, but he revelled in it, earning plaudits from both critics and fans. 9) Abhay Deol: He emerged as the dark horse. Be it a doomed lover in

“Dev D” or a smart thief in “Oye Lucky! Lucky Oye”, he has effortlessly carried his roles in the past. He continued his winning streak as a confused lover in “Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara”. 10) Saif Ali Khan: This Khan showed his sparks in “Omkara” and after that he embarked on a journey that showed his versatility. This year he had just one release in “Aarakshan”, which was not a super hit, but the film’s box office performance didn’t overshadow

Saif’s work. Critics felt he scored very highly in sincerity, subtlety and sheer screen presence as a Dalit boy in the movie, highlighting the reservation issue.
