Premier’s statement marking Vaisakhi
P
remier Christy Clark today has released the following statement marking Vaisakhi: “Over the coming days, many thousands of British Columbians will join with millions of people around the world in celebration of the holiest day of the Sikh calendar. “Vaisakhi is an important reminder of the proud and enduring Sikh culture. For over a century, your contributions to British Columbia have enriched us all. Thank you for
all you have done, and continue to do, to grow our economy and strengthen our communities. “I am proud that British Columbia is home to the largest Vaisakhi celebration in North America. I encourage all British Columbians to take part in local celebrations. “On behalf of all British Columbians, I wish you prosperity, health and happiness as you celebrate with your friends, family and community, and for the coming year. “Lakh Lakh Vadhai.”
CITY MAPS OUT “A NEW GAME” IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF ABBOTSFORD ENTERTAINMENT & SPORTS CENTRE
T
he City of Abbotsford is pro-actively addressing the future of the Abbotsford Entertainment & Sports Centre with a new strategic direction entitled “A New Game”, an integrated approach to the development of the facility that is founded on securing revenue-positive anchor tenants, establishing improved operating agreements and increased community access. Setting out a series of key strategies for the future of the facility as an important regional hub in the Fraser Valley, Mayor Bruce Banman today announced that the initial precursor of “A New Game” is the departure of the Abbotsford Heat of the American Hockey League effective after the completion of the 2013/14 regular season and playoffs. The strategic direction’s major components – most notably the provisions for expanded community access and the revised terms of engagement with Global Spectrum, the operators of the Abbotsford Entertainment & Sports Centre – will be phased in immediately after the conclusion of the existing contract between the City of Abbotsford and the Calgary Flames (Abbotsford Heat of the AHL) as of June 30th, 2014. A payment of $5.5 million – which is being allocated from the City’s 2014 operating savings and unappropriated reserves, meaning there will be no property tax impacts – will allow for the termination of the existing 10-year supply agreement which was struck in 2010 as part of the launch and establishment of the Abbotsford Heat Hockey Club. “We have negotiated a termination that will cost the City less than half of what our losses would be on the basis of projections related to five more years of the AHL team playing here on the existing 10-year contract,” said Banman, speaking on behalf of Abbotsford City Council. “There is absolutely no question in our minds that taking this step with

the Abbotsford Heat is the best scenario financially for the City and our ratepayers.” Banman thanked Calgary Flames President and Chief Executive Officer, Ken King for the approach the NHL club has taken in working with the City on the relocation of the Abbotsford Heat, accepting approximately 50 cents on the dollar when there was no legal obligation for them to do so. It is estimated the terminated agreement will save the City at least $5 million over the next 5 years. “Equally as important as finding new revenue-positive anchor tenants for the facility is our renegotiation of the building management and operations agreement with Global Spectrum to further lower costs,” said Banman. “We acknowledge and appreciate the willingness of Global Spectrum to work with us as true community partners in the development of our ‘A New Game’ direction.” A New Game also addresses the future of the building as it relates to expanded community access, the terms of reference for new tenants and new revenue streams such as naming rights. In the interim, the facility will be renamed the Abbotsford Centre. The City is already actively pursuing new tenants for the facility as well as naming partners. “Abbotsford City Council has given some very clear parameters under which the City Manager is pursuing new anchor tenants for the Abbotsford Centre,” said Banman. “In a nutshell, any new tenancy agreement for the Abbotsford Centre will be a public document that will have the best interests of the community and the ratepayers at its heart. We will not contemplate subsidizing private businesses and we will ensure that ongoing community use of the facility is a major emphasis.”

tion of a sword or dagger, while fulfilling the government’s responsibility for ensuring the physical security of employees at missions.Visitors to Canadian missions who declare themselves to be Sikhs will be permitted to retain their kirpans when entering the missions, provided their kirpans are secured
within a sheath, attached to a fabric belt and worn under clothing across the torso. They should also be in possession of the four other Sikh articles of faith. This new policy is part of the government’s efforts to promote human rights, encourage protection of religious minorities around the world and promote the values of pluralism and tolerance.

“Canada’s diversity is one of our greatest strengths, and freedom of religion is a fundamental Canadian value,� said Minister of State Uppal. “Our government’s new kirpan policy will serve as an example and promote Canadian values around the world.� “The accommodation of the kirpan at Canadian diplomatic missions around the world is a deeply significant move that shows that the Government of Canada understands and respects the significance of the kirpan to Sikhs,� said Amritpal Singh Shergill, President of the World Sikh Organization of Canada. “Most importantly, this policy reflects the importance Canada places on human rights, including freedom of religion, and sets an example for the rest of world.� The new policy provides clear guidance to missions on accommodating the Sikh kirpan, a stylized representa-

Minister of International Trade Teresa Wat and Liu Fei, Consul-General of the People’s Republic of China in Vancouver. The Ministry of International Trade and the Consulate General agreed to establish a formal series of high-level dialogues and exchanges to build upon the foundation of friendly peopleto-people, community and business relations that exist between British Columbia and China. Features of the MOU include: B.C. and China will seek to improve market access by exchanging information about trade and investment opportunities, and government, institutional and business sector programs and practices in each other’s markets and sectors.

The MOU identifies initial sectors for co-operation, including natural resources (natural gas, forestry, mining); agri-foods; technology, clean technology and the green economy; international education; transportation infrastructure, and tourism. The agreement will operate for a threeyear period with automatic renewal. A contact person from each jurisdiction will be selected to monitor and report annually on progress. Attending the MOU signing ceremony today are representatives from some of the most promising sectors in the B.C./China bi-lateral relationship, as well as community leaders, including: •
Lumber
•
Mining

S
tatistically, North Americans with diabetes are doing a better job of meeting their care goals – but this number is increasing very slowly and about half of diabetics are still not reaching their goals for blood sugar, blood pressure and cholesterol. This is troubling considering the heavy toll diabetes exacts on people. So, what are the goals? A1C below 7%, blood pressure below 130/80 mm Hg, LDL cholesterol below 2.0 mmol/L - and no smoking.
The Glycemic Index is a useful tool for diabetics to assess the quality of the carbohydrates they consume. Carbohydrates, converted to sugar in the blood stream, are sources of energy and the goal is to manage how much is taken in and how much of a blood sugar spike they generate. Check out: www.the-gidiet.org/glycemicindexchart and aim to use foods from the green zone rather than the yellow or red zones.

cially if comparing foods. Aim for little or no fat (especially saturated and trans fats) and low salt (ideally, less than 1 mg for each calorie of the serving). Fibre is good – a good source is 5 gm or more per serving), but minimize sugar, which can directly lead to elevated blood sugar. Diabetics know that carbohydrates are the source of sugar in their bloodstreams, but carbohydrates are also necessary as an energy source for their bodies. Everyone is recommended to consume whole grains or complex carbohydrates – but how to easily know what is good? Check the food label and compare the grams of carbohydrate to the grams of fibre… a desirable ratio is 10-to-1, or less. Our pharmacists have a wealth of information on living with diabetes at their disposal – and would be more than happy to share and translate. Visit us soon!
Food labels hold valuable information for everyone – but particularly for diabetics. However, many people find the Article Provided by Blueridge Pharmacy, information provided overwhelming. See advertisement on page 4. Pay attention to the serving size, espe-

BC social enterprises building local communities
olunteers building new homes for hard working, low er-inc ome families or a café reinvesting its profits in neighbourhood programs and services. These are just a couple examples of Victoria-area social enterprises
making a positive impact in their communities. Social Development and Social Innovation Minister Don McRae showcased social enterprises on the legislature lawn today as part of Social
Enterprise Month, including Habitat for Humanity Victoria and the Fernwood Neighbourhood Resource Group Society.
achieve, sustain and further a social or environmental purpose. Based on a 2011 survey, B.C. social enterprises provided services to nearly 700,000 Social enterprises differ from people and generated at least most traditional businesses in $60 million in revenues. that profits are reinvested to Today’s event was an opportunity to raise awareness of the growing social enterprise sector and its contribution to the strength and resiliency of B.C. communities. The Government of British Columbia has proclaimed April 2014 as Social Enterprise Month. As an active member of the BC Partners for Social Impact, the B.C. government works with leaders in the field to promote and support social innovation and social enterprise across the province. Through this kind of collaboration, government is able to accomplish far more than it would if acting alone. Quotes: Don McRae, Minister of Social Development and Social Innovation – “I want to thank all the social entrepreneurs for their innovation and hard work growing social enterprise in British Columbia. The organizations here today are great examples of social enterprise. I encourage citizens to learn more about this type of organization, whether it’s a visit to a café, farmers’ market, thrift store or the YMCA, and to celebrate the contributions of the social enterprise sector.” Lee Herrin, executive director, Fernwood Neighbourhood Resource Group Society –

“Fernwood NRG is a social enterprising, charitable organization run by and for the residents of Victoria’s Fernwood neighbourhood – and it’s a great example of what a social enterprise can do. We offer many programs including childcare, affordable housing for families, family support programs and recreation. We also own our own business that operates the Cornerstone Café and Studio 1313 Hair Design.
When the neighbourhood supports our business, our business supports the neighbourhood, because our business donates its profits back to our charity. I invite you to come and check us out during Social Enterprise Month.” Yolanda Meijer, executive director, Habitat for Humanity of Greater Victoria – “Our mission is to mobilize volunteers and a range of community partners to build simple, decent housing in order to provide lower-income families with access to affordable home ownership right here in our local region. We’re very excited that our ReStore, which funds our operations through the sale of donated building material, competed in the recent Social Enterprise Catalyst event and won both money and resources to help us roll out our new scrap metal drive partnership.” Interesting examples of social enterprises in B.C.: Thousands of B.C. social enterprises around the province provide valuable services, offer employment opportunities, involve volunteers, and train thousands of people each year. Through volunteer labour, efficient management and taxdeductible donations of money and materials, Habitat for Humanity builds affordable houses that are sold to partner families at no profit and are financed with affordable, no-interest mortgages. The Victoria Habitat ReStore sells donated building materials and goods for sale to the public. The Fernwood Neighbourhood Resource Group Society operates a café, food box program, affordable housing, and child care, family, recreation and urban sustainability programs. All income from their Cornerstone Café is reinvested in the neighbourhood through programs and services. The Café serves and sells coffee roasted by Discovery Coffee, a Victoria-based coffee roaster, and $5 from every pound of coffee sold is also reinvested.

Minister Responsible for Multiculturalism Last Saturday, Premier Christy Clark and tens of thousands of people took time to enjoy the annual Vaisakhi parade in Vancouver - and for good reason. This special day celebrates the beginning of the Nanakshahi calendar year, which usually occurs on April 13 and April 14 once every 36 years. It also marks the beginning of harvest season for the winter crops in India so in many ways it is similar to Thanksgiving in North America. Events like the Vaisakhi parade attract people from every culture, and give us a chance to experience the diversity that makes Vancouver, and all of British Columbia, so special. Since I became Minister Responsible for Multiculturalism last spring, I have attended many events throughout the province. One thing that really stands out for me is how proud we are in B.C. of our cultural heritage. I’ve seen beautiful art installations, amazing dance and theatre performances, and talked oneon-one with people from many cultures. These are just a few examples of the many ways we can all experience the
unique cultural mosaic that is British Columbia. This blending of cultures and traditions has made us what we are today. Our diverse communities have always played an important role in the development of our society - socially, economically and culturally. They have contributed mightily to our past and to our present and will play a vital role in our future. Today, British Columbia continues moving forward as a welcoming and inclusive society. Cultural diversity is the fabric of our province and is a competitive advantage to creating a strong economy. As Minister Responsible for Multiculturalism, I am proud to be part of a province, a government and a community of many voices. Our government remains committed to challenging racial intolerance and promoting the inclusiveness that we all value as a modern, tolerant, multicultural society. While the Vancouver Vaisakhi Parade took place last weekend, the good news for those who could not attend is that Surrey also holds a huge Vai-
sakhi Parade. This Saturday the parade will begin at approximately 9:30 a.m. at Gurdwara Sahib Dasmesh Darbar Temple, located at 12885-85 Avenue. The parade attracts about 100,000 spectators and some of the many good reasons to go are to enjoy the people, the culture, and of course, the delicious Sikh cuisine.
Every day we are given opportunities to reach out to our communities, our families and our neighbours to appreciate the differences that define us and to recognize that diversity enriches us all - the Vaisakhi parade is a prime example. I encourage all to attend and join in celebration, and look forward to seeing you there.

Tips to help your family travel safely this Easter weekend
he Eas ter long weekend is a popular time for a spring getaway, but drivers are reminded that highways will be busy and road conditions may remain winter-like and dangerous in some parts of B.C. Here are some tips to help B.C. families prepare for a safe road trip: Be prepared: Weather conditions can change suddenly at this time of year, especially when travelling over long distances. Check the road and weather conditions for your entire trip at drivebc.ca which features over 400 webcam views throughout the province.
Get a tune-up: Remember to check the engine oil, washer fluid and lights. Take a look at your vehicle’s tires, including the spare, to make sure they are in good condition and properly inflated. Keep winter tires on vehicles until April 30, if driving mountain passes. Stay alert: Be realistic about travel times and plan rest stops at least every two hours to avoid becoming fatigued while driving. Fatigue slows a driver’s reaction time, decreases awareness and affects their judgment. Put phones away: Turn off cell phones or store them out of reach to avoid the temptation. Research shows five seconds of
texting at highway speeds and three penalty points is like driving blindfolded are added to their licence. for almost the length of an Share the road: Warmer entire football field. weather encourages more Be sober: The risk of motorcyclists, pedestrians, being in a fatal crash is, and cyclists to hit the road. on average, seven times Give other road users the greater at a blood alcohol time and space to reach content (BAC) between their destinations safely. .05 and .08, compared with driving sober.

Their drivers are fined
and make the effort to reduce any and all distractions while driving. Focusing on the road will help British Columbians get home safely.”
Steve isn’t sure how his family is going to take this news. His kidney disease is beginning to progress, and his doctor is preparing him for the possibility of dialysis. Steve is 43 and married with two young kids. Since being diagnosed five years ago, Steve has worked hard to improve his diet and exercise regime, in the hopes of avoiding what seems to be a family legacy – almost all the men have suffered from kidney disease and have needed dialysis. It doesn’t look like he will be any different.
important to talk about endof-life preferences when they are healthy, they are also quick to find excuses for not doing it,” says Cari Borenko-Hoffmann, Advance Care Planning Coordinator for Fraser Health. The poll states that 39% of us are simply too ‘creeped out’ to have those tough conversations about end of life decisions. BorenkoHoffmann encourages these conversations to be about living and living well. “The reality is that they are critical for your family and your health care providers. Only you can decide what gives your life meaning. These are personal, individual choices that everyone makes to ensure that now, as well as at the end of your life, you receive the care you want. Advance care planning ensures your voice is heard even when you can’t speak for yourself. “
“If you’re planning a long drive this weekend, visit drivebc.ca to view the webcams and check road conditions and weather conditions for the entire route you’ll be travelling. Take your time on the road so you and your family get to your destination and home again safely.”
“Every driver should exercise a high degree of personal responsibility when behind the wheel. Police will be out in force across British Columbia this weekend making sure drivers are slowing down and focusing on the road.” Quick Facts: Every year over the Easter long weekend, an average of three people are killed and 670 injured in 2,300 crashes throughout B.C.
Don’t get creeped out... speak up!
He knows he needs to talk to his family about his future health care needs, but he’s worried this will upset them and they will be too afraid to have the discussion. Steve is not alone. April 16 is National Advance Care Planning Day. A new Harris/Decima poll indicates that while six in ten Canadians believe it is extremely important to talk to someone about their endof-life care preferences, only 45% have done so. The poll also provides some interesting reasons why Canadians are dragging their heels on this important issue. “It appears that while Canadians seem to know that it’s

Advance Care Planning, a process of communicating your wishes for end-of-life care and naming a Substitute Decision Maker to speak for you if you are unable to do so, offers a way to start the conversation. Fraser Health is a national leader in Advance Care Planning, having a formal program for eight years with monthly education and information
sessions for health care providers and the public. In addition, the Advance Care Planning in Canada Project provides a number of tools and resources through its Speak Up campaign, including workbooks, videos and wallet cards. Borenko-Hoffmann notes that health professionals, particularly in Fraser Health, are doing a better job of asking about patients about their care decisions, but emphasizes that individuals should also take control of their own future. “This isn’t surprising considering nurses, doctors, social workers and other healthcare professionals have been engaging in advance care planning conversations for years. What is different is how we package it —making the conversations more focused and purposeful, supporting the on-going involvement of loved ones and medical practitioners in the process, and finding ways to document decisions,” she says. “It’s clear that we all understand that it’s important to have these conversations. Now it’s time to stop making excuses and start talking. Speak up and make your voice heard.”

EXPANDED ACCESS DESIGNED TO FULFILL THE VISION OF THE ABBOTSFORD CENTRE AS A DYNAMIC COMMUNITY ASSET “A New Game�, the new strategic direction for the freshly-renamed Abbotsford Centre, will usher in a new era of expanded community access along with revenue-positive anchor tenants and streamlined operating agreements for the facility.
“Even the new name for the facility is designed to remind us of its role at the centre of our community,� said Mayor Banman. “It revolves around community sports and recreation groups, who will now have greater access to the Abbotsford Centre than ever before.�
Speaking on behalf of Abbotsford City Council today, Mayor Bruce Banman noted that public access is essential with respect to the Abbotsford Centre in order for it to fulfill its vision as a dynamic community asset and valuable regional hub for the Fraser Valley.
The major components of “A New Game� – most notably the provisions for expanded community access and revised operating agreements for the facility -- will be phased in immediately after the conclusion of the existing contract between the City of Abbotsford and the Calgary Flames Hockey Club (Abbotsford Heat of the AHL) as of June 30th, 2014.
“The community ice provisions of our new strategic direction for the Abbotsford Centre will be invoked immediately and remain in place even long after we have new anchor tenants,� Mayor Banman said today at a news conference held at the facility that has served as the home of the Abbotsford Heat of the American Hockey League since 2009.
The new strategic direction is designed to address the needs of local minor hockey and adult hockey groups, figure skating and public skating, along with other sports and active living organizations in the community.

Hedley gives surprise of a lifetime to Abbotsford ACE ALLSTARS cheerleading squad Woman Stabbed, APD Arrest Man near Scene
ACE ALLSTARS cheerleading squad was chosen to join Juno award winners Hedley on stage to rock out with them on April 12th at Abbotsford Sports and Entertainment Centre.
ACE coach Angela LaPlante’s excitement upon receiving Hedley’s invitation to dance on stage for the band’s Wild Life Tour, came to a crashing halt when it was realized that the tour date fell on the same day as cheerleading’s most anticipated competition, The Sea to Sky International Cheerleading Championship. Here ACE ALLSTARS will compete against cheerleaders from Western Canada and the USA. The thought of forfeiting such an amazing opportunity was devastating to the team and all involved. ACE’s PAC decided to find a way to “have their cake and eat it too.” The STARS aligned when the athletes agreed to accept the dance challenge as well as their cheerlead-
ing competition routine requirements. Hedley’s production assistant arranged to modify the original request and accommodate the late arrival of our athletes who will be rushing from their 7pm performance at Canada Place. Finally, Harji Dail, owner of Ice Limousine Services of Surrey agreed to present the girls a first class night, providing Limo service from Canada Place to their performance at Abbotsford Entertainment Centre.
S
unday morning at 9:00 am the Abbotsford Police received a 911 call from a residence in the 2700 block of Blackham Drive. The female caller reported that she had been stabbed a by man who took her baby and fled on foot. The victim indicated that the man was the father of the child and she had previously been in a relationship with him. Abbotsford Police officers and BC Ambulance staff attended the area. The 23-year-old woman received treatment for multiple stab wounds to her body. APD members began an area search for the suspect and at 9:40 am he was located in a backyard a few hundred meters away from the scene. The 24-year-old man was taken into custody without further incident and the 18- month-old child that he had with him appeared physically unharmed.
It is going to be a whirlwind of a night and our fingers are crossed that the girls will maintain their first place ranking that they achieved last month at the Olympic Richmond Oval Mardi Pardi... and hearts will be pounding to share the stage with local celebrities Hedley. Tickets for this concert are available at ticketmaster. For more information about enrollment for Ace Allstar Cheerleading please visit Cheerthis.ca!

The Reach Gallery Museum appoints Sheila Perry as its New Executive Director
T
he Board of Directors of The Reach Gallery Museum Abbotsford is pleased to announce the appointment of Sheila Perry as its new Executive Director. Ms Perry, who will begin her position in mid-June takes over from previous Executive Director Suzanne Greening who has left to be the Executive Director of the new Audain Gallery currently under construction in Whistler. In January 2009, Sheila was appointed as the Director of The Rooms Provincial Art Gallery in St. John’s, Newfoundland. A native of British Columbia, she studied art history and classics at the University of Alberta. From there she went on to post-graduate work at the University of Leicester in England, receiving her Master of Museum Studies “With Commendation”. During this period she gained experience in many aspects of museum work by serving as a Curator Intern at Glasgow Museums. She gained international work experience living in Scotland and Japan until returning to Canada, where she pursued a final university degree, receiving her Master of Business Administration from the University of Alberta. In addition to her education, Sheila also brings to The Reach a strong record of service in the museum/gallery field. From 1999 through 2002, she was the Executive Director of the Visual Arts Alberta Association, responsible for operations of the organization and in representing the interests of independent Alberta artists to government and the private sector as well as establishing the VAAA gallery in Edmonton and curating its exhibitions. In 2002, Sheila was recruited by the Charles H. MacNider Art
Museum in Mason City, Iowa, responsible for the operations of this midsized regional arts complex. This included financial management, acting as senior curator for all exhibitions and responsibility for all programming, special events and for retention of American Museum Association accreditation. In 2007, Perry was recruited to serve as the inaugural Superintendent (head) of the City of Calgary’s Public Art Program, which is currently one of the most active public art programs in North America. Since leaving The Rooms in August 2013, she has been contracted by The Woodstock Art Gallery to conduct an analysis of operations, programming and space usage and to develop a business plan reporting on findings and making recommendations to address systemic barriers. The City has adopted these recommendations and a capital expansion project is currently underway. The Board and staff of The Reach look forward to welcoming Sheila to Abbotsford and are confident that she will continue to oversee the local, national and international exhibits the community has come to expect from The Reach, one of the few Class “A” gallery-museums of its size in the country.
Controversy about Trinity Western University’s proposed law school is now over.
T
he last minute controversy about Trinity Western University’s proposed law school is now over. Young people in British Columbia and beyond can look forward to attending law school in Langley. It will be a distinctive, new option. Now that the directors of the Law Society of BC have decided, in a 20 to 6 vote, to accept TWU graduates, three key points should be made. First, since The Federation of Law Societies of Canada, after an 18-month study, approved the TWU proposal, the BC body had no reason to be opposed. Second, at present many universities in the US and elsewhere have similar faith and conduct requirements; they have produced fine attorneys. Third, the argument that TWU graduates could not be good lawyers because they have agreed to a university policy upholding traditional marriage is deeply flawed. The
PAGE 18
TWU policy deals with behavior while the students are at TWU, not with a life-long commitment. Also, about 50% of Canadians support this view. Further, as every lawyer knows, concerning any social policy, whether rooted in the constitution, the Charter, or legislation, numerous lawyers are in opposition. On major policies dealing with capital punishment, euthanasia, compulsory vaccination, decriminalizing marijuana, same-sex marriage, etc. the country is rife with lawyers on both sides of the issue. The TWU law school won’t cause or affect that reality. Read history, lawyers! Freedom prescribes diversity and social progress has come through dissenting minorities, not by imposition of views by majorities! John H. Redekop Ph. D. jredekops@shaw.ca

School District Unveils Results from Public Consultation
he results of a major public consultation by Abbotsford School District with parents, employees and community leaders has been unveiled. Last summer, the school district asked parents, employees and community leaders to share their thoughts about what they felt the district was doing well, where it could improve, and what skills students need for a successful future. Over 2,600 people provided ideas and thoughts to help the district get a sense of shared values and priorities within schools and across the district.
Participants highlighted a number of positive features of the school district, and chief among them were: quality of teachers and staff; good communication between school and home; a focus on reading; and access to computers and technology.
From June to October, 2013 Abbotsford School District parents/guardians, staff, along with community members were invited to respond to three questions:
• Academic basics

It is reaffirming to have many of the ideas provided align with the six major themes of our current strategic plan. The results from this district-wide consultation – the largest we’ve ever undertaken – helps to show us where we need to direct our efforts and resources to provide a more responsive educational experience for students, as well as engage parents and the broader community. On behalf of our Board and senior management, I want to thank all those who took the time to participate in this consultation.” A

Dear Editor, During my recent visit to India, I was pleased to see a concerted effort by well-wishers of Punjabi language to get it more respect and recognition in the state. The huge march on International Mother Language Day on February 21 in Jalandhar City was a big success. It was organised by Pun-
jab Jagriti Manch and spearheaded by prominent persons like Dr. Barjinder Singh Hamdard, Satnam Singh Manak and Deepak Bali. They had also lobbied Punjab Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal in this regard. It was a delight to see thousands of school, college and university students participate in the march. Presence of young people in large numbers at this march was very encouraging. In Chandigarh, I had the pleasure of meeting with my friend Baljit Balli, a strong advocate of Punjabi language, and his colleagues at PTC Television and elsewhere. I was very impressed with their commitment and dedication to Punjabi language. Wherever I went my message was very simple. Let us all work to-gether and become part of a peopleâ?Ts movement ( Lok Lehar) to promote our mother tongue Punjabi in whatever way we can. Back here in Canada, it is an honour and a privilege for me to work with a dedicated group of people who have been doing a great job in promoting Punjabi at every level. I would like to commend my fellow members with the Punjabi Language Education Association of BC (PLEA B.C.), the Indo-Canadian media and our community for standing by us at all times. PLEA can do only so much. It is the media and the community that makes the big difference. Wherever I went in the Punjab, people were very complimentary about our efforts in promoting Punjabi here in Canada. Canada is the only country in the world where Punjabi has become the third most spoken language. Not only that, the Punjabi signage,

increased job opportunities for Punjabi speakers and overall respect for Punjabi in this country makes us all proud. Mini Punjabs in cities like Surrey, Abbotsford, Calgary, Edmonton and Brampton reflect our community’s hard work, resilience and generosity. We need to continue these efforts, individually and collectively. PLEA will be celebrating its eleventh International Mother Language Day on Sunday, April 27 from 1:30 PM to 4:30 PM at Balti House Restaurant, 8220-120 Street in Surrey. PLEA is putting together a program that will involve our youth, elected officials, prominent members of the community and the public at large. In this regard PLEA is very thankful to the management of Balti Restaurant as well as the Deepak Binning Foundation for their on-going support. On behalf of PLEA, I would like to invite every well-wisher of Punjabi language and the public to join us in celebrating our mother language Punjabi on Sunday, April 27.This yearâ?Ts celebration will be dedicated to the Komagata Maru Centenary. For further information, your readers should feel free to contact me at 604836-8976 or Sadhu Binning at 604-437-9014 Thank you. Sincerely, Balwant Sanghera
President, Punjabi Language Education Association of B.C. (PLEA B.C.)

BC leading the discussion on open textbooks
eaders in the development and promotion of free online textbooks from across Canada and the United States are meeting at the second annual Open Textbook Summit in Vancouver on April 16 and 17.
“Open textbooks are one way we are working to reduce costs for students, making education more affordable, accessible and flexible,” says Minister of Advanced Education Amrik Virk. “Through innovation, there will be further ways to reduce barriers to education. The Open Textbook Summit gives us the opportunity to work together across jurisdictions to bring online textbooks to more students and instructors.” Participants from several U.S. states, as well as Alberta and Saskatchewan, include students, instructors, librarians, post-secondary administrators and government representatives, as well as various agencies and organizations that are involved in open educational resources such as online textbooks. “Our province is committed to open education resources, and this summit will assist our government in developing
a strategy based on the best practices of Alberta and British Columbia,” said Saskatchewan Minister of Advanced Education Rob Norris. “This will benefit students so that they can focus their attention on moving towards learning to earning.” The summit provides an opportunity to discuss the activities underway in different jurisdictions, identify common issues and potential areas of collaboration and co-operation, and determine the best way to move forward together on open educational resources. “Along with lending our experiences with textbooks to the conversation, we can also help in bringing this program back to our own schools,” said Brittany Barnes, Capilano University student and vice chair of the Alliance of British Columbia Students. “Open textbooks are one of the many innovative changes that this government can establish to save students money and make education more accessible.” “We’re looking forward to exploring options for providing a greater range of
choices for instructors while also seeking to reduce the costs for students,” said Tom Chase, vice president academic, University of Regina.
200,000 students each year could benefit from the open textbook project, each saving hundreds of dollars in textbook costs.
“Open educational resources for instructors and students will change the landscape of post-secondary education, and we’re here to learn and explore ways to contribute to a growing body of knowledge and resources,” says Tricia Donovan, executive director of eCampusAlberta, a consortium of 19 Alberta post-secondary institutions that facilitates greater access to high-quality online learning opportunities.
“In addition to providing free textbooks to our students, open textbooks allow us as instructors to customize our course content exactly the way we want it,” said Adrienne Watt, instructor at Douglas College and Northwest Community College. “The Open Textbook Summit will be a wonderful way for various open textbook advocates to sit down and collaborate on ways to improve this very important endeavour in B.C.”
British Columbia was the first province in Canada, and one of the first jurisdictions in North America, to introduce open textbooks for post-secondary students. Nineteen open textbooks have been peer-reviewed by B.C. faculty for courses ranging from math and chemistry to marketing, psychology, and business and are already freely available online for students and instructors. When fully implemented in British Columbia, it is estimated that more than
Last month British Columbia, Alberta and Saskatchewan signed a memorandum of understanding to share resources and work together to develop open educational resources. The 2014 Open Textbook Summit is organized by BCcampus, a publicly funded organization that focuses on the smart use of collaborative information technology services in higher education in British Columbia.

Study says we’re over the hill at 24
t’s a hard pill to swallow, but if you’re over 24 years of age you’ve already reached your peak in terms of your cognitive motor performance, according to a new Simon Fraser University study. SFU’s Joe Thompson, a psychology doctoral student, associate professor Mark Blair, Thompson’s thesis supervisor, and Andrew Henrey, a statistics and actuarial science doctoral student, deliver the news in a just-published PLOS ONE Journal paper. In one of the first social science experiments to rest on big data, the trio investigates when we start to experience an age-related decline in our cognitive motor skills and how we compensate for that. The researchers analyzed the digital performance records of 3,305 StarCraft 2 players, aged 16 to 44. StarCraft 2 is a ruthless competitive intergalactic computer war game

Thompson says this study doesn’t inform us about how our increasingly distracting computerized world may ultimately affect our use of adaptive behaviours to compensate for declining cognitive motor skills. But he does say our increasingly digitized world is providing a growing wealth of big data that will be a goldmine for future social science studies such as this one. Simon Fraser University is consistently ranked among Canada’s top comprehensive universities and is one of the top 50 universities in the world under 50 years old. With campuses in Vancouver, Burnaby and Surrey, B.C., SFU engages actively with the community in its research and teaching, delivers almost 150 programs to more than 30,000 students, and has more than 125,000 alumni in 130 countries.

Robotic team heads for world championship
M
embers of Simon Fraser University’s VEX Robotics team—one of the top 30 such teams in the world— are heading to California later this week to compete in the VEX Robotics World Championship April 23-26. The SFU team is the only Canadian university team to compete. Five engineering and two computing science students will represent the SFU VEX Robotics club, which has a core team of about 20 students. Members are making final tweaks and adjustments to their robots after final exams wrapped up over the weekend. The Robotics Education and Competition Foundation holds the annual contest for both high school and university students. It involves solving an engineering challenge using the VEX Robotics Design System. VEX robotics is an integrated and versatile design system for creating robots, says Gordon Ho, club president. Members of the SFU team, newly formed last fall, have built competitive robots that are run by motors
and sensors and can be programmed to solve engineering problems.

“Students are given challenges that address many aspects of real-life engineering,” explains Ho. “We engage our robots in solving problems using a mix of mechanical, programming, and electrical solutions. This year, new obstacles such as a speed bump and bridge will be new challenges. We’ll also rely on our teamwork to help us succeed.”

During the year leading up to the contest, students participate in local qualification matches and self-designed skills challenges. The goal is to tally the most points possible. Earlier this year, the SFU team ranked #1 in the world in the skills challenges component.

SRK Is Copying Aamir Khan Let’s go back in the year 2013, when we saw a song made with the budget of Rs. 5cr, in the film ‘Dhoom 3’. It was the most expensive song made in Bollywood and featured Aamir Khan and Katrina Kaif. And now, Shah Rukh Khan’s next flick ‘Happy New Year’ will break that record. Reportedly, one of the songs in the film will be made with the budget of Rs. 7cr. The director of the film Farah Khan said that she has no idea about the budget, but it will be a lavish song. Well, it seems like SRK is copying Aamir Khan and wants to break Aamir’s record.
Shruti Haasan All Set To Play A Double Role Shruti Haasan is all set to play a double role in Tigmanshu Dhulia’s 'Bichhde Sabhi Bari Bari'. The actress will be seen playing a young character and then an old character as well. Now a days, actresses don’t really agree to play the older roles, but it seems like Shruti is in mood to take challenges. The movie also stars Amit Sadh, Vidyut Jamwal, Irrfan Khan and Manoj Bajpayee.
Neetu Chandra Is Single And Happy
Neetu Chandra is high on life. After being appreciated for her performance in the play Umrao Jaan, she has three films lined up for release. On the personal front, the actress is excited about moving into her new four-bedroom, sea-facing apartment. Between all this, Neetu avers, she has no time for love. “I’m not dating anyone, I’m busy with theatre and movies. Apart from Hindi films Shooter and Kusar Prasad Ka Bhoot, I also have an international project, Block 12, in Greek and English, releasing in May,” she says. The actress adds, “Kathak also keeps me busy. There’s so much We were the first to report that Lisa Haydon has been approached to do, it is possible only if one is single.” She doesn’t seem to be in for Shaukeen after Nargis Fakhri’s exit from the film, a remake of a hurry to sign films either. “I don’t want to sign a film just for the Basu Chatterjee’s 1982 hit. We can now confirm that the actress sake of it. I’ve waited for good things to happen. Now I’m pleased with the d evelopments,” she sums up. has finally signed on the dotted line. She will play Akshay Kumar’s girlfriend, whom three old men — played by Anupam Kher, Annu Kapoor and Piyush Mishra — will be seen lusting after. Producer Murad Khetani confirmed the news, saying, “The way Lisa essayed her role in Queen made her the most suitable choice for our film. She has the required spunk and Vidya Balan oomph. The shoot with her will start on April 16.” opted out of Sujoy Ghosh’s ‘Durga Rani Singh’ and the film went into Kangana Ranaut’s hand. And now, it is learnt that ‘Aashiqui 2’ girl Shraddha Kapoor might be replacing Vidya Balan in Mohit Suri’ ‘Hamari Adhuri Kahani’. The film starts Emraan Hashmi, Vidya Balan and Rajkummar Rao. But, according to the grapevine, Vidya might be replaced by Shraddha. Well, if these reports are both of them have not worked match. Well, Akki even we true, then Vidya has no together. would like to see you and films in her hand curRecently, Akshay said that he Katrina in a film together. So, rently, except from wants to sign Katrina Kaif for we hope that you both manage ‘Bobby Jasoos’. his films, but their dates don’t your dates and do a film soon.

Akshay Kumar Wants To Sign Katrina Kaif For His Films There was a time in Bollywood, when Akshay Kumar and Katrina Kaif’s pairing was super-hit. But, after the debacle of ‘Tees Maar Khan’,

as it reflects the dampening effect of poor weather conditions across much of the country and does not signal any change in the drivers of growth which are still projected to “continue to strengthen gradually.” Further, the Bank did not make significant changes to the quarterly growth rates outside the reduction in the first quarter’s growth rate and projects the economy’s growth rate will average “about” 2.5% in 2014 and 2015. The addition of 2016 growth forecast showed real GDP rising by 2.2%, slightly above the economy’s 1.9% potential growth rate. More notable was the Bank’s reassessment of the inflation profile retreat_poster_2014_Layout 1 3/14/2014 5:39 PM Page 1
which was raised to incorporate the higher headline rate in the first quarter as well as the impact of higher energy prices and the weaker Canadian dollar. The headline inflation rate forecast was raised in both 2014 and 2015 with the 2% target being reached in the first quarter of next year. The Bank does not expect this will have a material impact on core prices which are expected to remain “well below” the 2% target in 2014. The low level of core inflation is due to the economy continuing to run with excess capacity with the output gap projected to be fully eliminated over the next two years at which time the core rate will rise to 2.0%. This forecast shows both the headline and core rate at 2.0% in Q1-2016.
Today’s forecast update incorporated the recent economic data with the Bank now looking for the economy to reach full capacity about one quarter later than was contained in the January Monetary Policy Report and the core inflation rate reaching the 2.0% target in the first quarter of 2016. Thus, even though the headline rate will reach 2.0% in early 2015, the low level of the core rate supported the Bank maintenance of a neutral policy bias.
PAGE 43
with this forecast we expect that both the headline and core inflation rates will approach the 2.0% target in the second half of 2015. We anticipate that as the volatility in the data due to the weather subsides and the economy returns to growth rates that are slightly above potential and the downside risks to core inflation diminish, the Bank will be convinced that conditions have improved sufficiently to warrant the re-insertion of a tightening policy bias. Today’s statement suggests that this will be a gradual process signaling that no change in the 1% overnight rate is likely this year and we are maintaining our call that conditions will be in place for the first hike to be announced in the second quarter of 2015.
Our forecast for the economy incorporates the hit from poor weather in the first quarter and a full reversal of this downward pressure in the second quarter. On balance, we expect the economy will grow at a 2.5% pace in 2014 and a stronger 2.7% in 2015, slightly above the RBC contacts: Bank’s 2.3% and 2.5% forecasts Dawn Desjardins, in those years, respectively.

AFRS crews worked quickly to contain the fire however damage was extensive at this property.
At 4:25 am Abbotsford Police and Fire Rescue were called to a fire in the 32300 block of Marshall Road. A convenience store containing residential suites occupies that property. Residents were able to call for help and began dousing the flames. There was minimal damage to the building and fortunately none of the eight persons who live at that location were injured. A third fire was discovered during daylight hours at a financial institution in the 2500 block of Clearbrook Road. This fire did not create significant damage but is concerning nonetheless. 8 fire units, 25 members, and fire investigators attended these fires. A cause for the fires and whether or not these fires are linked has not yet been determined. Currently the Abbotsford Police Department’s Major Crime Unit, Patrol Division, Crime Analysis Unit, Forensic Identification Unit, and Fire Investigators are investigating these incidents. Anyone with information about these incidents should call the Abbotsford Police Department at 604-859-5225 or text 222973 (abbypd) or call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

You could feel history is repeating itself in some way when it comes to a position you find yourself in related to the expectations others have. The difference now is that you have developed a strong degree of independence in some way. Obligations are involved. How you control this will result in how you will build up future growth.
At last you will feel as though there is some forward movement in life. Mercury, the planet of thought and communication moves into your sign until the 8th May, creating clarity of mind, as well as the opportunity to focus on yourself and things you consider personally important. Interaction with others is steady and stable.
Expect to feel held back at times until early May. Your energy level will be low, so it would be wise to get more rest. This is a good time to withdraw to some degree so that you can reflect upon where things seem to stand in life. There may be the need to let things go, or bring something to an end in preparation for new beginnings.
An important year began for you late last June and will continue to late July 2014. Right now powerful forces are operating that have not occurred before in life and will not again. You are in a unique position to secure your future with the support of someone influential. You can over-ride any attempted undermining by someone.
At the moment you need to focus on obligations that have to be dealt with – it may all seem a slow process. It is just a matter of keeping on, keeping on. The future has much promise, which will likely involve radical change. It is as if you can sense this but cannot be completely sure about how it will all take place. Have faith.
Doubts about where you stand will cease as you begin to gain a clearer picture of what is possible to acquire in the future. You could also decide on taking up a course to develop skills that will be helpful in fulfilling your goals. Discussions with others can be very helpful, mainly because they have a greater sense of possibilities.
Challenges you have had to face since early December can reach a sudden turning point that could see you taking action you had not earlier anticipated. Be mindful of not becoming overburdened because of somebody else expecting greater freedom. Your answers will come from focussing on what is manageable on a daily basis.
Tension continues to build up as well as the need to keep your own counsel for a while yet. Other people are beginning to come out in the open more and this will make it easier for you to see whom you can trust. It will not be difficult to engage them in conversation. There is also the opportunity for pleasure and enjoyment.
Time spent at home or with family will prove rewarding, even if it is only to recharge your batteries. You could come across people from the past. Something about them is not what you expected. There is a need for you to deal with details in a methodical and practical manner until early May. Not doing this will bring regrets.
Maintaining control of your own position will be strongly tested by what might seem generosity from others but will likely mask what they really want from you. You must resist falling back into old habit patterns when it comes to accepting obligations. You can liberate yourself once and for all by putting your priorities first.
You can become more settled of mind about the most sensible way to structure things, especially when it comes to home and family matters, to early May. You won’t find your mind jumping from one thing to another as it has been. If you are mindful of spending, you will discover ways of making your money go further.
Whatever you sense is achievable in the future needs to be backed up by some well structured planning. This could also include gathering information of a practical nature. Persistence is the key to improving your situation. You have skills to see what is possible but do not always recognise the amount of work required to do this.

Donna Bishop, Founder of MSA Poets Potpourri Society Lifetime Achievement Award Recipient In September of this year, Donna Bishop will celebrate
her 90th birthday. From the fall of 1924 to the present, she has witnessed some of the most dramatic changes of any generation. Born to homesteaders in southern Alberta, Donna came into the world at a time when farming was still largely manual labour. Her early memories are of filling the coal stove in the kitchen, fetching water from an outside well, and, yes, catching a chicken for supper. Her parents were hard workers and as a young school aged child she can remember the upgrades to modern conveniences as they became available and the family could afford them; electric lighting, indoor plumbing, and a phone that worked on a party line. Listening to the radio together as a family was a favourite pastime. One vivid memory is the broadcast of Orson Wells’ War of the Worlds in 1938, when her family listened spell bound wondering if the world was in fact being invaded. Although the dirty thirties were tough, Donna’s parents were resourceful and they weathered the hard times together. These were Donna’s early school days, of riding her horse, Topsy, to the one room school, of discovering a passion for music and artistic expression, and developing a love of learning and language. The hours of time spent alone with nature on the farm, the dramatic changing of the seasons and a social culture dependent on one another for their entertainment, all contributed to Donna’s heightened imagination and awareness of the extraordinary in what others might see as an ordinary life. Her artistic journey began as a young child when, after noticing her daughter’s delight in the barn dance music, her Mother gave her the violin her Grandfather had played. Donna seized the opportunity to learn and has never looked back. Throughout her lifetime, Donna has held her violin very close to her heart, excelling in classical training, and taking every opportunity to share her music. But her repertoire is
extensive, from hoe down fiddle tunes played by ear, to Fritz Kreisler, to Mozart. And this musical talent is not exclusive to the violin; if asked she can also play the piano, mandolin, guitar, accordion, and saxophone. Her Father was also an appreciator of poetry and took great pride in reciting The Village Smithy by heart. The poems of Pauline Johnson rang through the home and Donna became captivated with the power of dramatic expression through poetry and theatre. As a teenager, Donna participated in Kiwanis elocution festivals and, later, at age 24, submitted a play to CBC receiving an encouraging response; they didn’t yet have the technology to produce such a performance but hoped she would continue submitting. It was while playing tenor sax in a school dance band that Donna fell in love with the alto sax player, Lou Bishop, her husband to be. This was wartime and Lou was in the Air Force. Their modest wedding took place on a weekend furlough with their honeymoon on a train to Winnipeg. Shortly after the war ended, Donna and Lou produced two baby boomer boys, and Lou built their first home, a one room wooden structure small enough to be moved on the back of a flat deck truck. Thus began their journey of farming and raising children, with another baby, a girl, born 8 years later. The sixties and seventies were a time of radical social change. Donna and her family watchedtelevision as Neil Armstrong took his first step on the moon, John F. Kennedy was shot, andFreedom Fighters risked their lives for equality. But Donna’s personal life also took a dramatic turn. The farm was sold and the family moved to B.C., Penticton first, then Richmond, andfinally, Abbotsford in 1976. In 1977, at age 53, Donna found herself alone for the first time. Lou, her love and companion of nearly 35 years, passed away. Her children were adults discovering their own place in the cont’d on page R15

cont’d from page R12 world and she and Lou had only lived in Abbotsford for just over a year. She knew she needed to reach out to others and so decided to start a poetry club, calling it “Poet’s Potpourri.� Initial meetings were held at the then Fraser Valley College where sometimes only one or two people would show up. Over time, the membership grew with many people coming and going over the years. To Donna’s great delight, this club, currently changing its name to Fraser Valley Poets, has lasted 35 years. Donna is quick to point out that the longevity and accomplishments of this club are not to her credit alone. Many individuals have made significant contributions to keep it vibrant and growing. This, in fact, is one of her greatest pleasures, knowing that the club has given its members the opportunity to lead and encourage others. There have been many community events over the years as a

result of this energy. Along with the regular monthly open mike readings, there have been parades, festivals, participation in local events, numerous publications competitions and many potluck dinners. It has been lively and rewarding. The contribution of Poets’ Potpourri to the individual participants and to the community is definitely the legacy of which Donna is most proud. The inspiration of Poet’s Potpourri also prompted Donna to write an autobiographical novel, Fritzy, published in 1997, and the sequel, Fritzy II: Please Listen to Me Read, in 2007. She has written and recorded songs as well as produced CD’s of herself reciting her poetry. Always an avid supporter of the arts in the community, from art shows to concerts, museum openings to symphonies, Donna has always been there to enjoy or lend a helping hand. Donna now speaks regularly on her cell phone with her granddaughter in Toronto, shares her son’s day in Arizona through Face
Time, and enjoys her favourite documentaries with the use of high resolution head phones. Her world has certainly changed. But in spite of the radical social and cultural changes she has witnessed, her heart has always remained constant, committed to encouraging the creative spirit in others, meeting head on whatever challenges come her way and embracing with joy and thankfulness the many blessings she has received. This award of recognition from the Abbotsford Arts Council represents for Donna the culmination of a lifetime of commitment both to the creative process and to this community. She and her family are deeply grateful.
