Roses are red, violets are blue, spring is here and stamps are too
ed is for love, pink for gratitude and white for purity. After one of the coldest, longest winters in recent memory, Canada Post celebrates the warmer weather and the symbolic rose with the annual issue of the floral stamp series. One of Canada Post’s most popular series, these springtime stamp issues are prized by brides-to-be and gardening enthusiasts. The two Permanent™ rate stamps each feature a spectacular rose. On one, the velvety red hybrid tea ‘Konrad Henkel’ and on the other, a creamy white hybrid tea with warm gold undertones called ‘Maid of Honour.’ The Official First Day Cover features a peachy-pink graniflora ‘Rainbow Sorbet.’ All of the roses featured on the stamp products were photographed at the MontrĂŠal Botanical Garden. Founded in 1931 by botanist Brother Marie-Victorin, the MontrĂŠal Botanical Garden is recognized as a National Historic site due to its major role in advancing the botanical sciences. The garden has a collection of 22,000 plant species and cultivars, ten exhibition greenhouses, 20 thematic gardens, an arboretum and the Tree House. It is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Quebec. About the stamps The Roses stamps measure 26 mm x 32 mm and use lithography in six colours. Lowe-
Martin will print the stamps, which are available in booklets of 10 stamps, on souvenir sheets of two stamps and in a coil of 50 stamps measuring 24 mm x 20 mm. The stamps were designed by Isabelle Toussaint Design graphique featuring

ust as with the rest of your body, your eyes can begin to deteriorate with age. Some problems are well known, such as cataracts, and others are annoying, such as dry eye. See your eyecare professional regularly, but schedule an extra visit if you notice pain, focus problems, dark spots in your vision, redness, change in iris colour or discharge. Good eye health makes every day look a little better!

Hyperthyroid also stresses the heart, resulting in heart failure (shortness of breath, fatigue, weakness, swollen ankles) and atrial fibrillation. Ensure your doctor checks your thyroid if you experience any of these symptoms.

More British Columbians well protected against influenza this season
T
he 2013-14 influenza season in British Columbia set records with 1.4 million vaccine doses distributed and 80% of health-care workers vaccinated, said Health Minister Terry Lake. Since Nov. 7, 2013, when the influenza control program launched, a record 1.4 million doses of vaccine have been distributed throughout the province and, according to a BC Centre for Disease Control study, this year’s vaccine was 74% effective in protecting vaccinated British Columbians against the most predominant H1N1 strain. “I want to personally thank Dr. Perry Kendall and the public health officials at the BC Centre for Disease Control, along with the health authorities, for their professionalism and ex-
pert guidance during this busy influenza season,” said Health Minister Terry Lake. “I also know that health-care providers made an extraordinary effort to protect their patients by getting vaccinated or wearing a mask, which is appreciated by all British Columbians.”
This was the first year that the health authorities fully implemented the policy to require that all health-care workers and visitors chose to get vaccinated or wear a mask when in patient-care areas. Because of this, the vaccination rate among health-care workers was 80% overall in B.C. – a 10% increase from the previous year. “As public health professionals plan for the coming influenza season, I want to remind British Columbians that getting vaccinated early is the
best way to protect yourself, and others, from complications from influenza,” said provincial health officer Dr. Perry Kendall. “We are pleased to see that not only are more people getting vaccinated, the vaccine that was available this year was very effective in protecting against influenza. The earlier you get vaccinated, the better prepared you are to fight the flu.” “Health authorities partner with physicians and pharmacists to protect residents against influenza,” said medical health officer for Vancouver Coastal Health, Dr. Meena Dawar. “With immunization clinics at doctors’ offices, pharmacies, community clinics and work places, access to the vaccine has never been better and I want to take this opportunity to thank our community

New York comes knocking for B.C. women in technology The B.C. Ministry of International Trade is partnering with the BC Innovation Council and the Canadian Consulate (New York) to offer B.C. women in technology the opportunity to access the lucrative New York City market via its Canadian Technology Accelerator program. This one-day Vancouver event will target womenled or -managed B.C. companies with a technology product that may include mobile apps, ecommerce for fashionretail, analytics, cloud computing, ad-technology, and gaming. Women working in the tech sector will have the opportunity to meet with leaders from media and branding as well as venture capital contacts in the New Your City market. Participants will also

meet the Canadian Trade Commissioners from New York and Seattle to learn about Canadian Consulate programming for tech, market trends in New York City, and brand relationships and engagement with the local market. Of the 20 companies who participate, 10 will be given the opportunity to promote their product in a four-minute pitch. This will be followed by feedback from the brand and venture capital partners that will include referrals and business development advice. In the past, when the Canadian Trade Commissioner Service organized digital media technology programming in New York City, they found that women were not well represented. To engage more women in
Consulate programming for tech, they are now organizing pipeline development programs in Canada such as the one in Vancouver. In 2012, the Consulate General in New York established a Canadian Technology Accelerator (CTA@NYC) in New York City to help Canadian digital media companies access key resources to accelerate their growth. New York City is increasingly taking centre stage as a hot-bed for internet-based technology entrepreneurship and is a world capital for advertising, media, fashion-retail, financial services and innovation.

US new home sales plunged in March to an eight-month low a.. New home sales in the US fell 14.5% to 384K in March, well below market expectations for 450K annualized units sales in the month. January and February were revised higher to provide some offset (470K and 449K; initially reported as 455K and 440K). b.. The inventory of unsold new homes jumped 3.2% to 193K in March from 187K in February, which combined with the sharp decline in sales resulted in the monthsâ?T supply of new homes available for sale surging to its highest level since October 2011 at 6.0 months. c.. New home sales have shown significant gyrations in recent months and March was no exception. Despite modest upward revisions to both January and February readings, the sharp slowing in sales in March left the average level of sales in the first quarter at 434K, a 9.8% annualized decline from the 446K posted in Q4/13. As new home sales are counted when a contract of sale is signed, the persistence of colder-than-normal temperatures into March likely dampened momentum in the first three months of 2014 after sales surged by an annualized 74.1% in the final quarter of 2013. While the sharp declines in the West are less likely to be weather-related, the dissipation of weather effects will provide an overall clearer reading on new home sales in the coming months. We remain of the view that overall housing activity will resume an upward trajectory with tight supply conditions easing and underlying demand supported by an improving economic backdrop and accompanying improvement in labour markets.

sharply for the second consecutive month (-16.7%). The inventory of unsold new homes increased by 3.2% to 193K in February. This marked the highest number of new homes available for sale since July 2010. The sharp decline in overall sales combined with the jump in inventories resulted in the monthsâ?T supply of new homes available for sale surging to 6.0 months from 5.0 months in February. The inventory of new homes has not reached this level since October 2011 and indicates an easing in tight supply conditions with the measure closely aligning with its longer-run average of 6.1 monthsâ?T supply.

Baisakhi 2014 More Meaningful Than Ever
Prof. Gurmit Singh Tiwana The auspicious Baisakhi festival of the year 2014 coinciding with the birthday of the Khalsa finds the Sikh community at the crossroads of history. It won’t be a ritual as usual; rather it should not be so. Times have changed, science and the Technology has revolutionized the world. With this new perspective in view, every living religion needs a new understanding and a new interpretation. The basic Sikh fundamentals are the eternal truths good for all mankind for all times to come. The problem is the ritualism and traditionalism that has crept in our Sikh religion and that too of a despicable self-serving nature. In fact, Sikhism, as a new religious ideology rose to negate these very Brahamanical ritualistic and traditionalistic religious practices. The age of Guru Nanak was an age of Reformation in Europe. Martin Luther and Calvin reformed Christianity and Protestantism grew out of traditional Catholicism. Calvin declared that religious authority flowed from the scriptures and not from the clergy or the pope. More than that, Guru Nanak revolutionized the traditional Indian Religious thought content and practice. He reinterpreted Hindu religious myths and symbols and invested them with new meanings, as it was the need of his time. The Hindu sacred thread, the Yogic-way of life and the Muslim prayer were reinterpreted to elucidate the spirit behind them and not the traditional way they were being observed and practiced. Times having changed, Sikhism- the religious, socio-cultural and ideological movement of the Punjab peasant, artisan and lowly Hindu castes- after the martyrdom of Guru Arjan Dev found

itself beset against heavy odds. Therefore, the sixth Guru along with the concept of Piri introduced the concept of Miri signifying temporal authority, which was vested in the seat of Akal Takhat. Henceforth the Sikhs were obliged to watch the actions of Moghul Empire and defend their freedom of religion, their institutions, in short the total Sikh- way of life with the armed might of its devotees. It was the Tenth Guru Gobind Singh, that giant of a man , an astute statesman, an erudite, scholar, a glorious warrior and a hard-core nationalist who appeared on the Sikh Firmament to lead the community out of bewilderment, desolation and depression which it had suffered after the martyrdom of ninth Guru Teg Bahadur. It fell to his lot to stream and codify the already founded institutions of Miri, Piri, Pangat, Langar and Daswand. It was on this auspicious day of Baisakhi April 13, 1699 that the thought of raising an army of the Khalsathe- pure to defend these institutions. With a single stroke of the pen, he ended once for all, any personal Gurudom after him. Henceforth Guru Granth Sahib was to be the Guru guiding the destiny of the Sikh Community. It was not only to be revered, read, recited, understood, its teachings only to be preached and propagated, but inculcated and practiced in their day- today dealings by the Sikhs. To avoid further pitfalls he created an institution of the Five Beloved Ones and baptized them. To make the concept of equality doubly clear he got himself baptized by them to become sixth among the five equals. Headed by these five, the Guru raised an army of the valiant, all of them baptized with a special dress- code of five K’s the religious symbols of the Khalsa- the pure- to God- men (Gurmukhs)- servants of God and man alike, ever ready to lay down their lives for bringing the reign of God on earth, to defend the lowly, help the destitute and the downtrodden. It is highly tragic that now some of us adorn the symbols and do not follow the spirit behind these symbols. Sikh ritualism has taken the place of Sikh ideology. Under
capitalistic system, money has become the measure of all things. Money values have come to the fore, a degenerative change has set in and social, cultural and moral values advocated by different religions have received a setback. Ritualism, traditionalism and in some cases fundamentalism have become synonymous with the saintly spirit of religious worship. Sikhism is one of the most liberal religions of all. Guru Arjun invited Sufi Saint Hazrat Mian Mir to lay the foundation stone of the Golden temple. Guru Har Gobind built a mosque for the Muslim labourers working at Gobind Pur. Our ninth Guru tasted martyrdom so that the Hindus could enjoy the freedom of religion and worship. Khomemism and Taliban type of theocratic approach is totally alien to Sikhism. Guru Nanak liberated women- kind for the first time in the history of world religions. With the tireless efforts and guidance of people like Sant Teja Singh at least our people found a way to keep our traditional religion alive and practised if not preached and propagated. This process continued whole through to the end of the 20th century. Our second generation and in some cases third generation having reached adulthood. It is hard to say that our faith can survive in the 21st century, the way it has so far been understood and practiced. A thorough overhaul of our traditionalistic and ritualistic paraphernalia is needed without compromising basic Sikh fundamentals. Our Holy scripture has been translated in many languages, but very few attempts have been made to interpret it. Every religion if it is to survive has to keep pace with the changing times. Guru Arjun’ martyrdom necessitated that the Sikh movement may turn militant and the ninth Guru’s martyrdom obliged the 10th Guru to raise an army with a special dress code to be differentiated from the commonalty to fight against Moghul oppression- it has to interpret and reinterpret its deals and mythology. So far, we have not been able to convey the meaning of our Holy Scripture in simple Punjabi to the
Friday, April 25th, 2014 Sikh laity. I don’t know when we are going to make it understand to our Western culture oriented Sikh youth and attract them to Sikh ideals and help them see that our religion is the latest and the loftiest of all. They are ignorant of their mother tongue and hence of their religious Scripture. It is all Greek and Latin to them. Therefore, our Temples can in no way evince their interest in their religion and the sayings of their Gurus. With this background how can we assume that they would go on following the great Sikh Tradition blindly? They are not used to move a step further unless they are made to understand what it is all about. A blind following is what they detest the most. Thus, how can Sikhism survive the onslaught of Western culture and Christianity, as we might think it would? Has the community ever bothered to find out as to how many conversions to Christianity have been there in North America? Jesus was crucified within two and half years after declaring that he stood against slavery and the ritualistic practices of the synagogue, and not a word spoken or written is left by him for posterity. Our revealed word GOD- SHABAD is scrupulously revered and the Sikh ideal was preached by the Gurus in person for more than 200 years and the Sikh movement has suffered innumerable martyrdoms all through this period.

and plebeian exhorting him to be righteous (GURMUKH) leading a householder’s virtuous life devoted to the social good. Ever since Reformation there has been many ideological, upheavals in Christianity wrought in the light of science and technology. Certainly, no religion can up hold its own if it is not related to man as he happens to live in his socioeconomic context. Religions live and prosper by virtue of the eternal truths they embody. So it is high time that Sikhs, especially our intelligent conversant with the progressive ideals of Sikhism accept this challenge and try to understand and interpret the lofty Sikh ideals for which the whole Sikh revolutionary movement under the leadership of our great Gurus had its being. The first round of battle on the level of practice against a long entrenched traditionalism has been won, but the war on the front of traditional understanding of Gurbani vis-a-vis its interpretation from a progressive point of view and the applicability of the word GOD-SHABAD to the prevailing human conditions in the present context still needs a kick- start. On this historic occasion let us make a resolve to get out of the confines of the ghetto- spirit prevailing within Sikhism and spread the Guru’s message of the Fatherhood of God and Brotherhood of Man, lead an honest and virtuous life of Gurmukh, helping mankind to achieve its goal of peace and prosperity. May the liberal and democratic spirit of the Guru’s prevail upon all of us and we have patience, perseverance and courage enough to resolve our differences in a democratic way.
Sikhs with their most sublime religious world-view should not be living in Dark Ages. Table and Chairs issue has raised many more questions than it has answered. It is not only how the charity is to be spent, rather how to understand, interpret and propagate religion among our youth. Sikhism is not how we sit to eat or what we eat, it is rather how we think, Gurmit Singh Tiwana (Prof) act, and behave in the North American culture M.A. (Eng & Pbi) B.A. (Persian & Hindi) milieu. Ours is a religion of the Punjab peasant Abbotsford Ph: 604.758.2185

Time for Auditor General to Turn Up the Heat on Abbotsford
L
eave it to local government to find a way to lose money on something as near and dear to Canadians hearts as professional hockey. Abbotsford’s long, painfully expensive dance with the American Hockey League (AHL) is finally over, but taxpayers there will be picking up the pieces for years to come, after subsidizing the Heat hockey team by at least $15 million in just five years. Thankfully, B.C. now has an Auditor General for Local Government, and it couldnâ?Tt be more needed in Abbotsford than right now. Back in 2009, desperate to find a tenant for their white elephant of a brand new arena, Abbotsford city council signed a ten-year sweetheart deal with the billionaire owners of the Calgary Flames. The Flames moved their AHL affiliate to Abbotsford, with taxpayers covering any financial losses. And the losses quickly mounted in what may be the worst example of a municipality handing out corporate welfare in B.C. history.
Abbotsford taxpayers cut the Flames cheques totaling $7.2 million to cover operating losses over the past five years. On top of that, taxpayers paid another $5.5 million to escape the final five years of the contract, which Abbotsford officials believe to be roughly 50 per cent of what they would have paid if the contract had run its course.
That same year, Abbotsford taxpayers also shelled out $350,000 to redesign the brand-new arenaâ?Ts dressing rooms and add a kitchen and hot tub for Heat players. If only they had installed a movie-like hot tub time machine, Abbotsford taxpayers could go back and stop this nonsense from ever starting.
the team arrived in 2009, then-Mayor Peary lavished praise: â?oAbbotsford is grateful to the Calgary Flamesâ?¦ for the tremendous effort to bring the American Hockey League to our building. Five years and $15 million later, Abbotsford taxpayers are just as grateful to see them go.
At the time, Abbotsford CAO Frank Pizzuto claimed the Heat would be a The law governing B.C. cities, the Amusingly, Abbotsford officials tried Community Charter, was supposed to to pass off that $5.5 million as a saving significant economic stimulator which will reap benefits for the community. protect taxpayers from this type of corto taxpayers but that spin fell flat. porate welfare. It specifically forbids How bad was the taxpayer payout? Pizzuto, who abruptly left Abbotsford councils from giving any grant, benefit, During the Heat’s five-year run, the in 2012 with a $321,000 severance advantage or other form of assistance Canadian Taxpayers Federation cal- package, was dead wrong.

Clearly schemes, Abbotsford over-promised local governments can learn from this and completely under-delivered. When debacle. it wasn’t.

If you have been intending to take a more practical approach to your finances, now is the time to head in that direction. These need to be your decisions and not what others expect, or your determination will falter. This is also a good time to finalise any outstanding matters with someone else that involves finances in some way.
The Solar Eclipse this week falls into your sign, providing you with the opportunity to take your life down a new path during the next 6 months. It is important you focus on being happy within, even if the circumstances you are dealing with in life are not exactly of your liking. Have faith that you can change things for the better.
You can come up with solutions that will satisfy somebody who has been determined to change something or gain greater control, without feeling as though you are making personal sacrifices. Much has to do with the way routines can be organised differently, which likely includes something being brought to an end.
You need to think about what you want in practical terms. Others seem happy to fit in and make whatever changes are necessary. It could be a matter of getting something you have wanted but now that it might be available you may not be so sure. This is a big test in coming to realisations about true priorities in life.
You can begin to feel happier, either about the commitments you need to make or simply because you feel more ready to knuckle down to obligations you know you need to accept. Something tells you there will be benefits to gain in the future, although that is not obvious just yet. A change of attitude can certainly do wonders.
The opportunity to tie together what you would like to accomplish in the long term and what needs to be your priorities, exists. Take advantage of people who are in positions to help you get there – they will be willing to assist. Most important is to believe you can be fortunate and that you possess the creativity to succeed.
By bringing something to an end, involving other people, you can find other opportunities presenting themselves. This is mainly because you have made decisions about the level of responsibility you are willing to accept. This is more about setting things up at the moment, rather than feeling you are going forward.
Dealings or involvement with others is at a significant turning point, which will continue to develop for the next 6 months. You can feel personally restricted or held back, but also recognise opportunities that are there to be built up in the future. You are limited to what you can do just yet. Others have more choice.
Dealing properly with details is not one of your strong points but is very necessary over the next few months. It will not only reap benefits, but also restrict other people from creating advantages for themselves, while you miss out. It is a precursor to becoming more personally organised in the not too distant future.
Life will seem to turn a better corner and much can be linked to you having improved expectations of what can be accomplished. You can be more confident about your abilities and what you are capable to handling, especially if there has been something you have not fully understood. Someone can be generous.
Getting a good foundation in place is important over the next 6 months. This can be connected to home and family but not necessarily. The main thing is that you apply persistence, even when it turns out to be a lot more work than you first anticipated. Proper effort put in now will produce significant benefits in the future.
What you sense is possible will require you to be practical of mind. It might also mean you need to let go of goals you have had in mind but have found difficult to make any real progress with. You also have to enjoy what you do. When this is the case you will flourish. Have you been trying to please others instead of yourself?

Gas Station Convenience Store Robbery
O
n Monday, April 21 at 5:00 am, a male suspect entered a gas station convenience store in the 2100 block of Whatcom Road. The man smashed a display case in order to access items contained inside. After removing some of the items, the suspect fled from the store into a waiting gold coloured sedan. A female passenger was observed in that getaway vehicle. The 29 year old employee inside the convenience store called police.
The suspect is described as a Caucasian man, 20-30 years of age, wearing a black hat and a black and white bandana over his face. He was also wearing a blue and white jacket (hood pulled up) with writing on one arm, grey
pants and brown shoes (see photo). The female passenger is described as a Caucasian woman, 18-21 years of age, with brown hair. She was observed wearing a beige jacket. The suspect vehicle is described as a gold coloured, late 1990’s import car (see photo). The Major Crime Unit of the Abbotsford Police Department is investigating this incident. Anyone with information should contact the APD at 604-8595225, text us at 222973 (abbypd), or call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477. PAGE 35

Campaign Helps Change Attitudes and Prevent Violence
Whether in the classroom, in the stadium, on TV or online, the Be More Than a Bystander message is spreading to young people throughout the province who are learning what they can do to break the silence on violence against women and girls. This year, the Ministry of Children and Family Development (MCFD) is providing a further $160,000 to support the award-winning Be More Than a Bystander campaign, a partnership between the BC Lions Football Club and the Ending Violence Association of BC (EVA BC). Funding and support has also been provided by the Government of Canada, Encana Corporation, the BC Federation of Labour, the BC Government and Service Employees’ Union, the BC Association of Broadcasters, Global BC, RED FM, and the cities of Surrey and Vancouver. Be More Than a Bystander addresses violence against women and girls by providing tools and practical ideas about how to communicate that violence is not acceptable. The campaign has included school presentations and workshops led by BC Lions players at more than 60 B.C. secondary schools, a conference for amateur football coaches to help them talk with their players about gender violence and respectful relationships, and a targeted advertising and public awareness campaign across B.C. EVA BC and the BC Lions have also produced a Be More Than a Bystander film, which has been distributed to more than 200 anti-violence programs throughout B.C., to all B.C. secondary schools and is being broadcast through Shaw Video On Demand and Telus Optik TV On Demand.
PAGE 38
In the film, BC Lions players share personal stories about how they engage with the issues of violence and harassment, both through personal reflections and in their interactions with youth in schools and events throughout the province. This is combined with analysis from anti-violence experts and community advocates who offer a broad perspective for understanding why violence against women affects everyone. Clips from the film, as well as eight new Bystander videos that focus on practical advice about speaking up against abuse and disrespect, are available on EVA BC’s YouTube channel. EVA BC spearheaded the Be More Than a Bystander partnership with the BC Lions, MCFD, Status of Women in Canada and Encana Corporation in July 2011. As a founding partner, MCFD has now provided a total of $640,000 in support. Quotes: Stephanie Cadieux, Minister of Children and Family Development – “This government has made it a priority to address the issue of domestic violence throughout the province. Our support for programs like Be More Than a Bystander is an important complement to the work we are doing through our Provincial Domestic Violence Plan to raise awareness and take action on the issue of violence against women and girls.” Peter McKay, Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada – “Our government is firmly committed to reducing violence against women and girls, and to holding perpetrators accountable for their acts. This is precisely why we continue to provide significant resources for local organizations who are dedicated
to ending violence and supporting victims. It is also why we have strengthened sentencing for serious crimes such as sexual assault and kidnapping, and have tabled legislation like the Protecting Canadians from Online Crime Act which will crack down on the non-consensual distribution of intimate images. We will keep moving forward with our comprehensive justice agenda which is working to keep our streets and communities safe, while putting the rights of victims first.” Tracy Porteous, executive director, Ending Violence Association of British Columbia –
“We are incredibly proud of the Be More Than a Bystander program and extremely appreciative to receive this critical, momentum building support. Throughout the first three years we have reached over 44,000 youth, in person across the province and many more via social and other media. We know that connecting with the next generation, to create the ‘new normal’, that is, speaking up against abuse, is central to creating a world that does not tolerate violence against women and girls.” Dennis Skulsky, BC Lions president and chief executive officer – “Violence against women continues to be an issue that requires our voice and our undivided attention. The BC Lions Football Club is proud and humbled to renew its support of the Be More Than a Bystander initiative.

make B.C. a safer place for women, children and anyone who has been affected by domestic violence. The plan includes the creation of additional domestic violence units, programs for Aboriginal families, direct services for perpetrators, and improved access to services and social housing for survivors in rural and remote communities. It also includes an Aboriginal response and specific approaches to address the unique needs of immigrant and refugee women and women with disabilities. The Provincial Office of Domestic Violence was created in March 2012 as the permanent lead for the B.C. government, focussed on strengthening the services and supports available for children, women and families affected by domestic violence.
EVA BC is a registered provincial charity, whose mandate is to provide support and training for more than 240 programs across B.C. that work with survivors of domestic and sexual violence.
Drop off obsolete electronics at one of 1,000 safe sites As many as 80% of Canadians polled said they had at least one endof-life electronic item in the house. Do you? If so, more information about disposing of them responsibly in your community is available online at www.recycleMYelectronics. ca. On the site, take a look at the informative video as well. The Electronic Products Recycling Association (EPRA), an industryled not-for-profit organization that operates and regulates programs across the country, explains: “When you recycle end-of-life electronic products in a safe and secure manner, you're not only helping to keep
them out of Canada's landfill, you are also preventing them from being illegally exported or handled by irresponsible recyclers. Furthermore, when electronics are received and dismantled by approved recyclers, you are also helping to recover valuable resources that can be put back into the manufacturing supply chain.” Since 2007, the EPRA's nationwide initiative has diverted more than 400,000 metric tonnes of electronics, roughly the weight, they say, of 80,000 elephants. Could you have an elephant in your home?

people are always looking for ways to give back” KarmaGrow is here to bring all these elements together in order to ‘Harvest Good’. At every point in the foundation and building process I have been amazed at the community’s willingness and capacity to help. All of our partners have jumped at the opportunity to assist in any way possible. A perfect example of that is the WSO. The WSO was our first partner, and helped to secure the farm land we will be using for our pilot project. We are thrilled to be building a one acre vegetable farm with 100% community driven support.
Jaskaran Singh Sandhu, KarmaGrow’s CoFounder and a WSO Board member, started with a simple idea. “Food banks are often short of fresh vegetables, land is often underutilized,

B.C. Liberal education cuts force school boards to eliminate student programs and teaching jobs
ust as B.C.’s school enrolment is set to grow over the next three years, the B.C. Liberals’ flat-lined education budget is forcing school districts to consider the elimination of at least 350 teaching and support staff jobs, as well as programs for students beginning next September. “All districts, including growing districts like Surrey, Delta and the Central Okanagan, are contemplating more education job cuts because they face provincial funding shortfalls. Parent groups and trustees are telling the B.C. Liberals their budget will negatively impact the learning experience of our kids,” said Rob Fleming, New Democrat education critic.
Fleming noted that some districts are also considering a week long break in November - placing more costs onto the backs of families who will have to find and pay for day programs or take time off work.“The bottom line is that B.C. Liberal cuts will eliminate
teaching positions across B.C. and reduce programs that provide accelerated learning, English language support, classes in music and trades, and support for students with special needs.”
Despite two Supreme Court rulings overturning B.C. Liberal laws on class size and composition, as well as expired contracts with the province’s teachers and support staff, a provincial education budget increase of only 0.4 per cent is causing districts to make budget cuts in excess of $56 million. “Last year the Minister of Education ordered school districts to fund provincially negotiated contract costs for 22,000 support staff entirely through ‘internal savings,’ and with great difficulty they did,” said Fleming. “But in this provincial budget cycle they are drawing from the same well again and ordering school trustees to fund MSP increases, BC Hydro increases, pension adjustments, even provincial seismic school upgrades from a reduced budget - and that’s before any new settlements with teachers and assistants.” In the Coquitlam School District a $13.4 million budget shortfall is forcing the elimination of 163 full-time jobs. The Sooke School District, despite being one of the fastest growing districts in the province, is being forced to cut $2.7 million. The Vancouver School Board has to tackle a $12.34 million shortfall that will grow to $26.6 million the following year. They are contemplating the elimination of 70 full-time positions, including cutting elementary school band and the district’s athletic coordinator. PAGE 43

Consider Your Present and Future Lifestyle Before you begin shopping for your home, reviewing your lifestyle, both now and in the future will make a big difference in the type of home you may need. You will save time. You will define your goals. You are likely to find the home you want, quicker, because you will not waste your efforts viewing homes that do not meet your criteria. Look at your lifestyle right now. Are there some areas you would like to change? Consider your lifestyle a few years from now? Will it remain the same? Will your needs increase or decrease? Will you need a small or large home to meet your lifestyle needs? Perhaps the attic or basement can be converted into additional living space. Do you have preschoolers? In a few years they will be teenagers, perhaps looking to move out and establish
their own home. Perhaps your children have already left and you do not need a large home. Do you have an idea of how long you would like to stay in your home? Two years? Five years? Where do you spend the most time? Kitchen? Basement? Kitchens and family rooms are often gathering places. Be sure these areas are large enough. What about entertaining? Do you need extra space to accommodate family functions? Could you convert the basement into a family area? Do small children need a play area, or teens need a recreation area? How many bedrooms do you require? Some people like smaller spaces for children, a home office, or frequent guests. Cont’d on Page R8

Bathrooms are among the busiest place in the home. Can the bathroom handle the traffic? Think about your employment situation. Will you be changing jobs, or accepting a promotion with another company in another location? If you are transferred, could you sell your home quickly? On another workrelated matter, how much time do you want to spend driving to and from work each day? Do you rely on public transportation?

While it might take some thought to answer these questions, the effort translates into a home more flexible and suitable to your needs. The answers could also affect your resale value when it comes time to sell or upgrade. Or, if you are planning to remain in your home for a while, a different home may be more suitable. How is your maintenance-quotient? Look at your lifestyle compared to homeownership. That is, how much time do you have to spend on mainCont’d on Page R11

tenance. Are you a gardener? Do you enjoy puttering in the garden, mowing laws and maintaining flower beds? Are you a person who enjoys fixing things around the house? While homeownership is a desirable and wise decision, it does come with responsibilities. To maintain the value of your home, and protect your investment, you will want to ensure your home is in good condition. This means careful attention to items that need to be fixed. Often, fixing them right away is easier than waiting for an accumulation of items. Based on the age of the house, and an opinion from a Real Estate Professional, plus a home inspection you can get a good idea of future maintenance and repairs based on the age of the house. If you do not want the maintenance, a newer home, or perhaps a condominium, may be an option. On the other hand, perhaps you enjoy painting, fixing, decorating and all the assortment of items needed to maintain a home? You might find an older home in a great neighborhood that’s well below market value because it needs some work. This could be a great home improvement project,
along with increasing the value of your home.

Prior to purchasing the home, eration for choosing the right home. prepare a detailed list of the work that needs to be completed, along with a realistic estimate of the cost. You probably will not be happy with a bargain home that translates into a money pit.
PAGE R11 Take a look at the entire picture before you purchase. A good way to truly evaluate which home is right for you, outside of price, is to consider what you absolutely must have and what you can live without. Be sure to read the article Home Buying Needs and Wants. This article will help you develop a shopping list. Before you go house hunting, prepare a list of ‘can’t live without’ features and a list of ‘would be great if...’ features.
Review the big picture Instead of a money pit, perhaps a home in better condition is a wiser choice. For example, suppose you purchase a home in good condition.
