BC NDP to partner with Simon Fraser University and community organizations to enhance Punjabi language and culture

BC NDP candidates for Surrey North Rachna Singh and Surrey-Fleetwood Jagrup Brar are announcing that if re-elected, the BC NDP will partner with Simon Fraser University (SFU) to create a role for a Punjabi language and Pedagogy professor.

“It’s extremely important for our local universities to have ties with the community they’re

in,” said Singh. “They need to reflect the students that they’re teaching and set young people up for success. Especially since we’ll be opening a new medical school here in Surrey - bringing more soon-to-be doctors from far and wide.”

Establishing a Professorship in Punjabi Language and Pedagogy will ensure that Punjabi

language learning becomes an integral part of SFU’s curriculum, actively contributing to Punjabi language and cultural heritage preservation.

This announcement comes after the BC NDP committed to opening a new medical school at SFU, which will begin accepting students in 2026.

“SFU is about to grow, a lot like Surrey has been doing, and with that comes new challenges and opportunities,” said Brar. “Right now, we have a chance to pass down our knowledge, culture and language to the younger generation - which is exactly what we plan to do.

The BC NDP is giving students the tools they need to learn by creating a Punjabi language and Pedagogy professor.”

NDP- Abbotsford West- Graeme Hutchison

My name is Graeme Hutchison, for those of you who do not know me I would like to introduce myself. I have lived in Abbotsford for 25 years. Most people know me through soccer, both as a youth soccer coach but more recently as a soccer referee where I referee various men’s leagues including teams from Abbotsford United Soccer club. As a young man I worked for a church-based organization leading teams around the world, this included spending

a year in India. After this I worked as a university professor in the U.K, before moving to Canada.

I sit on the regional council of the United Way and am President of the Fraser Valley Labour Council. Until recently I was President of MoveUP, a union representing 14,000 workers at employers such as ICBC, Fortis, BC Hydro and BC Transit.

I have two sons who went to school in Abbotsford, graduating from Robert Bateman Secondary School and they both completed their degrees at the University of the Fraser Valley. In my spare time I attend church with my wife and enjoy walking my two dogs.

I am excited to stand for the BC NDP to represent the issues currently being faced by students, health care workers, small business owners, farmers and seniors in our community.

NDP - Abbotsford South- Sarah Kooner

Born and raised in Abbotsford, Sarah Kooner learned the value of compassion and community-building. Having family involved in agriculture, healthcare, and education sectors provided Sarah an appreciation of strong work ethic. Growing up, she had access to quality healthcare and education. Yet, she recognized that not every child had those basic needs met, and families struggled in different ways. While completing her Master of Counseling Psychology degree, Sarah learned therapeutic skills, which she put into practice to help children and families. Sarah is an Infant Development Consultant and a Director of the Health Sciences Association (HSA).

Sarah understands that families who can’t afford a place to call home, affordable childcare, and are faced with long waiting lists for healthcare cannot risk a government that will undo the work that has been

done to address these challenges. Hiring over 800 doctors, creating more housing by cutting red tape, breaking barriers to construction, and investing in expansion and earthquake-proofing of schools are examples of BCNDP forward-thinking solutions, which make Sarah excited to be a part of this government.

Sarah is experienced with navigating multifaceted issues involving diverse perspectives. Whether she’s discussing a complicated treatment plan with a family, or representing members as an HSA Director, Sarah takes time to listen, understand challenges, and works to find real solutions.

Sarah Kooner is a devoted advocate who will work diligently as a representative of Abbotsford South. Sarah has a vision of growth for the City in the Country, which includes all its citizens.

Conservative party - Abbotsford SouthBruce Banman

1. Local Economy:

Abbotsford’s economy is built on the hard work of our farmers and small business owners. Coming out of the pandemic, these sectors need our full support to thrive again. We’ll cut red tape and lower taxes so small businesses—especially family-owned ones—can flourish. For our farmers, we’ll champion new technologies, open markets, and remove harmful taxes like the carbon tax that drive up costs. Our plan is simple: let’s create more local jobs, support our businesses, and ensure that Abbotsford remains the vibrant, growing community we all love.

2. Housing and Affordability:

The cost of housing is pushing families and young people out of Abbotsford, and that breaks my heart. I’ll ensure we build more affordable homes by cutting through bureaucracy and encouraging developers to create housing that real people can afford. Whether you’re a first-time buyer, a senior looking to downsize, or a family hoping to stay in Abbotsford, you deserve a place to call home.

3. Transportation and Infrastructure:

As our community grows, so do the traffic jams, and I know that’s a frustration for everyone. I’ll push for major road and highway improvements to keep Abbotsford moving smoothly. I also believe in expanding public transit to make commuting easier and more convenient for everyone. We need more frequent bus services, better connections to nearby cities, and safer streets. Let’s make getting around Abbotsford something we don’t have to worry about—so we can focus on enjoying all this great city offers.

4. Healthcare Services:

Access to healthcare is something we all worry about. Whether it’s finding a family doctor, getting timely mental health support, or ensuring seniors receive the care they deserve, it’s clear that Abbotsford is being stretched thin. I’ll work to bring more healthcare professionals to our city, with incentives to recruit and retain doctors, nurses, and specialists. We also need more mental health resources, especially for young people and seniors. My goal is simple: reduce wait times, expand services, and ensure everyone in Abbotsford gets the care they need—when they need it.

5. Public Safety and Business Protection:

Abbotsford is a wonderful place to live, but like many communities, we’re facing challenges with crime and gang violence. For the safety of our families and businesses, I’ll work closely with law enforcement to crack down on gang activity and protect our streets. South Asian-owned businesses have been particularly targeted by extortion, and that’s unacceptable. I’ll introduce programs to support these businesses, providing legal help and financial protection. Every business owner in Abbotsford deserves to feel safe and supported, and I won’t rest until we achieve that.

6. Climate Change and Environmental Protection:

Abbotsford’s natural beauty is one of the things that makes this community so special, but we’re seeing the increasing impact of floods and wildfires. We need to take strong action to protect our homes and environment. I’ll push for better flood defences, including upgrading our dikes and drainage systems, to protect us from future disasters. I’ll also support sustainable forest management to reduce the risk of wildfires. Let’s embrace green energy and sustainable practices that protect our environment while keeping Abbotsford’s economy strong and resilient.

7. Taxation and Small Business Support:

Small businesses are the heartbeat of Abbotsford, and they’ve been carrying too much of the burden with rising taxes and overregulation. I’ll fight to lower taxes and make it easier for businesses to navigate the rules and grow. But more than that, I’ll ensure that family-run and ethnic businesses get the mentorship, support, and financial help they need to succeed. A thriving small business community means a thriving Abbotsford, and I’m committed to making that happen by putting the right policies in place.

8. Mental Health and Addiction:

Mental health and addiction issues have taken a heavy toll on our community, and the opioid crisis is devastating to many families. It’s time we treated mental health and addiction with the seriousness they deserve. I’ll push for more recovery centers and ensure people can access the care they need. I’ll also work to make sure mental health services are available in schools and communities so we can catch issues early and provide support before they escalate. We also need to support parental rights to ensure children get help when they need it. Addressing these challenges will not only save lives but also strengthen the fabric of our community.

9. Agricultural Preservation:

Abbotsford’s farmland is a precious resource, and we must protect it while finding smart ways to grow. I’ll fight to keep our viable agricultural land from being overdeveloped, ensuring it continues to provide jobs, food, and economic stability for our community. At the same time, I understand the need for urban development, and I’ll work to ensure that growth happens in a way that respects our farming heritage. By balancing development with preservation, we can keep Abbotsford’s unique character intact while embracing the future.

10. Provincial Vision:

My vision for British Columbia is one where opportunity and sustainability go handin-hand. Abbotsford is a key player in the province’s future—a hub for agriculture, small businesses, and innovation. We must invest in our infrastructure, protect our farmland, and create opportunities for young people to stay and build their futures here. With the right leadership, BC can be a place where families thrive, businesses grow, and communities like Abbotsford stay connected to their roots while embracing new possibilities. Together, we can build a stronger, brighter future for everyone.

Conservative party - Abbotsford West - Korky Neufeld

1. Local Economy:

Abbotsford’s economy depends heavily on agriculture and small businesses, which have faced significant challenges in recent years. We will eliminate burdensome regulations and reduce taxes, making it easier for small businesses, especially family and minority-owned businesses, to thrive.

Useless and redundant regulations need to be removed, while larger corporations need to be held accountable if they engage in unfair or anti-competitive practices. For our farmers, we’ll drive financial incentives, grants, and infrastructure improvements that will help growers expand their operations and increase productivity.

By supporting small businesses and agriculture, Abbotsford’s economy will grow stronger and more resilient, ensuring more jobs and opportunities for our community.

2. Housing and Affordability:

Housing affordability is one of Abbotsford’s biggest challenges, and it’s time for action. I will work to streamline the approval process for affordable housing developments, ensuring that more homes are built quickly to meet the demand. We will incentivize developers to build homes that families, seniors, and young people can afford.

We’ll crack down on illegal activities like money laundering in real estate to protect the housing market from artificial inflation. Additionally, the “Rustad Rebate” will exempt up to $3000 in housing costs from income taxes, putting more money in families’ pockets.

With these steps, we can stabilize the housing market and ensure that Abbots-

ford remains an affordable place to live.

3. Transportation and Infrastructure:

As Abbotsford continues to grow, our transportation networks must be upgraded to reduce congestion and improve connectivity. I will push for significant investments in public transit, including more frequent and reliable bus routes and better connections to Metro Vancouver.

I will advocate for expanding and improving key roads and highways to address traffic bottlenecks. We’ll also invest in sustainable transportation options like bike lanes and pedestrian-friendly infrastructure to make the city more accessible and reduce our environmental impact. Focusing on these improvements can make it easier for people to get around Abbotsford, support future growth, and create a more connected and livable community.

4. Healthcare Services:

Abbotsford’s healthcare system is under immense pressure, particularly in mental health and senior care. My priority is to bring more doctors, nurses, and specialists to our city through targeted incentives and by reducing the administrative burdens that prevent healthcare professionals from focusing on patient care.

We will invest in new clinics and expand existing healthcare facilities to reduce wait times and improve access to care. For mental health, we will increase funding for counselling services and communitybased mental health programs, ensuring that residents can access the help they need when they need it.

More comprehensive home care and longterm care services will allow seniors to age comfortably in their homes or nearby facilities.

Investing in our healthcare system can ensure better care for everyone in Abbotsford.

5. Public Safety and Business Protection:

Abbotsford has seen a troubling rise in gang violence and crime, with South Asian-owned businesses being mainly targeted in some recent extortion cases.

Public safety is a top priority, and I will work closely with law enforcement to crack down on gang activity through tougher penalties and better surveillance. We will ensure law enforcement agencies have the resources to prevent crime and protect our neighbourhoods. We will introduce specific programs to offer financial and legal protection to those affected by extortion and other crimes. Strengthening the relationship between law enforcement and the business community will help prevent future incidents and keep our city safe.

A secure community is vital for the wellbeing of Abbotsford, and I am committed to ensuring every business and resident feels protected.

6. Climate Change and Environmental Protection:

Abbotsford is vulnerable to extreme climate events like floods and wildfires, and we need to take strong, proactive measures to protect our community. I will advocate for stronger flood defences, including upgrading dikes and improving drainage systems to safeguard homes and businesses.

To prevent wildfires, we will support better forest management practices, such as controlled burns and improved land-use planning.

I will encourage the adoption of green energy solutions and help farmers implement sustainable agricultural practices that protect the land and reduce environmental impact. By taking action now, we can shield Abbotsford from future climaterelated disasters while ensuring we grow sustainably.

7. Taxation and Small Business Support:

Small businesses are the backbone of Abbotsford’s economy, but rising taxes and overregulation are stifling their growth. Our plan to lower taxes for small businesses, reduce unnecessary regulations, and streamline processes to make it easier for entrepreneurs to operate and expand.

We will scrap the regressive and costly carbon tax, the plastic bag tax, and other unfair and burdensome taxes impacting small businesses.

By creating a more business-friendly environment, we can ensure that Abbotsford’s small businesses remain strong contributors to our economy and create more jobs and opportunities for the local community.

8. Mental Health and Addiction:

The opioid crisis and rising mental health issues have had a devastating impact on Abbotsford, and we must provide better support. I will advocate for the expansion of addiction recovery centers, ensuring that people struggling with addiction have access to treatment when they need it.

We will also increase funding for mental health services in schools, workplaces, and community centers to provide early intervention and ongoing support. Treating mental health with the same priority as physical health is essential to preventing future crises and helping residents recover and thrive.

By working with healthcare providers, law enforcement, and community organizations, we can provide the comprehensive support needed to address both addiction and mental health issues in Abbotsford.

9. Agricultural Preservation:

Abbotsford’s rich agricultural land is one of its greatest assets, and we must protect it from overdevelopment. I will work to strengthen zoning laws to prevent the unnecessary loss of farmland to urban sprawl while promoting responsible urban development in areas already suited for growth. We will support farmers by investing in sustainable practices that increase productivity and protect the environment, ensuring our agricultural sector thrives for future generations. By balancing urban development with agricultural preservation, we can maintain Abbotsford’s unique identity as a city deeply connected to its farming heritage.

10. Provincial Vision:

My vision for British Columbia is a province that leads in innovation, sustainability, and economic opportunity for all.

Abbotsford is vital to that vision, serving as a hub for agriculture, business, and community development. By investing in infrastructure, protecting our farmland, and supporting local businesses, Abbotsford can thrive as a model of balanced growth. The future of BC depends on creating strong local economies that support families, create jobs, and foster a high quality of life. Abbotsford’s unique strengths—its agricultural heritage, growing economy, and vibrant community— make it a cornerstone of my plan for a prosperous British Columbia.

kinesiologist, helping people recover from injuries. He places great importance in God, faith, family values, community, and aiding those in need. Over the past year, Aman has participated in various protests across British Columbia, spoken at events, and joined the parental rights protests initiated by residents of the Fraser Valley and Metro Vancouver.

As an independent candidate, Aman is free from the constraints of party rules and policies, enabling him to focus entirely on the needs and concerns of Abbotsford’s residents. Without the influence of party agendas or restrictions, he can prioritize listening to the community and addressing the challenges they face head-on. His commitment is to provide solutions tailored to the unique needs of Abbotsford, ensuring the community’s voices are heard and acted upon.

Aman believes that now is the time for change, feeling that the BC government is taking citizens for granted and not upholding their rights as Canadians. He advocates for lower taxes, fair distribution of resource revenue, support for seniors, protection for farmers, aid for truckers and healthcare workers, affordable housing, reduced land costs, lower tuition fees, improved healthcare access, and the protection of parental rights.

Committed to making a positive impact on his community, province, Aman exemplifies steadfast integrity and determination. He values children’s, parental, and human rights, and leads initiatives for enduring change. Aman is ready to take the essential steps to protect future generations and create a brighter, more transparent British Columbia.

Representing Abbotsford as your MLA is a significant responsibility, and I embrace the opportunity it brings. I am committed to working tirelessly to ensure that I can do everything in my power to help both the people and the city reach their full potential, striving to make Abbotsford one of the greatest cities in British Columbia.”

Who is James Davison

James Davison is a bold, action-oriented leader who champions family values, human rights, and common-sense governance. He is a father, grandfather, friend, and a hard working business man in the Abbotsford area — he is also an award winning business owner/operator with meticulous standards and a solid reputation for excellence,

He is dedicated to making a positive impact within his community, government and country; with unwavering integrity and grit, James stands for children, defends human rights, and spearheads initiatives to create lasting change. He's prepared to do what it takes to protect our future generations and build a brighter, more transparent Canada.

James also supports small businesses, medical professionals, and farmers and stands against SOGI123 and "safe supply". He is prepared to be that protective soul who will stand up for our country and future generations — willing to do what needs to be done to turn things around, if not James, who will?

As a leader and founder of Stand United, and a nationally acclaimed activist, no one else has the drive and determination like James, to keep pushing forward with initiatives to help Canadians advocate locally and nationally for accountability and government transparency. His strategy drives change and engages residents that are willing to stand up for human rights.

“You have to see what we need to do, where we need to be, and what we need to do to get there.” James Davison

As he leads the charge by crossing into the political arena to become an independent candidate, James' visionary leadership is a beacon of hope for all Canadians who are passionate about the future of our country. By embracing independence, James is spearheading a new movement – to break the monopoly held by traditional political parties – with an unwavering commitment to eliminating corrupt interference from foreign actors over the lives of all Canadians.

1. Local Economy: Abbotsford is a hub for agriculture and small businesses. What is your plan to support the local economy, particularly in light of post-pandemic recovery challenges?

Agriculture remains a cornerstone of Abbotsford’s economy, and my platform aims to bolster this critical sector. By providing direct financial aid, tax incentives, and investments in farming infrastructure, my aim is to modernize the industry and ensure that Abbotsford remains a leader in food security. Agriculture is the backbone of our community, and we will make sure that our farmers have the tools they need to thrive.

ability crisis. What steps would you take to ensure affordable housing for both current residents and newcomers to the area?

My plan is to streamline housing development by cutting red tape and fast-tracking permit approvals. Faster approvals will reduce construction timelines and costs, making homeownership more attainable for families.

Reinvigorating our logging and milling industry will lower the cost of lumber, essentially lowering the cost of building homes. This creates more jobs, a better economy and cheaper housing.

Advocate for better infrastructure and roadways and transportation options for Abbotsford:

Bring skytrain to Abbotsford, bring an express rail service from Chilliwack to Abbotsford linking to skytrain for ease of commuting.

Continue with the current widening of Hwy 1.

4. Healthcare Services: With the demand for healthcare services increasing, what are your priorities for improving access to healthcare in Abbotsford, including mental health services and support for seniors?

My plan is to restore integrity to healthcare services by removing external influences from medical decisions ensuring they are based on scientific principles and patient welfare. Healthcare in Abbotsford should be equitable, efficient, and above all, focused on the well-being of its residents whether they are seniors, families or those in need of mental health services. My plan includes improving access to healthcare services by eliminating administrative bottlenecks and reducing wait times. Decisions about medical treatments will be guided by science, ethics, and the needs of the community, not political ideologies.

5. Public Safety and Business Protection: Abbotsford has faced challenges with gang violence and crime in recent years. In addition, South Asian-owned businesses have been specifically targeted in some recent extortion cases. What initiatives do you plan to implement to address public safety and

protect all businesses in the community?

The province needs to take decisive action by ending the current “catch and release” system through implementation of initiatives that support safer communities.

My plan includes:

Funding for more officers

New technology (bail monitoring)

Better policing infrastructure

6. Climate Change and Environmental Protection: Abbotsford is vulnerable to climate events such as floods and wildfires. What policies do you advocate for to protect Abbotsford and the province from the impacts of climate change?

Preparation for adverse events is the key. Climate change, they say, is a c02 issue. The solution for c02 abundance is always more trees; a biodiverse forest helps alleviate this problem.

With regards to wildfires:

Stop spraying our forests with glyphosate as it contributes to wildfires.

Plant more trees they as act as natural fire brakes.

Clean up the forest floors of dead debris that can act as fuel for fires.

Controlled burns every spring.

More funding for fire fighters.

Flooding preparation is key:

Ensure local pumpstations are fully functioning and upgrade capacity levels if necessary.

Prepare sandbags in advance.

Build an overflow aqueduct to redirect flood waters.

7. Taxation and Small Business Support:

Small businesses in Abbotsford have expressed concerns about rising taxes and regulatory burdens. How would you ensure that small businesses, including family-run and ethnic businesses, thrive in Abbotsford.

Over the next four years, I hope to see increased investment in skills training and job creation programs that empower Abbotsford residents to find meaningful and well-paid employment. Developing a skilled local workforce is key to the city’s continued growth and prosperity by providing incentives, opportunities and tax breaks to entrepreneurs or local business owners.

8. Mental Health and Addiction: Like many communities in BC, Abbotsford has been affected by the opioid crisis and rising mental health issues. How would you address the need for improved mental health and addiction services in the region?

The current approach to addiction through the concept of ‘safe supply’ has not delivered the desired outcomes. We must pivot away from the safe supply approach to addiction management. We must develop comprehensive rehabilitation programs that address mental health, education, and job training that provide opportunities for individuals to reintegrate into the workforce and society, ensuring addiction recovery centres are well funded and staffed with professionals dedicated to long-term recovery.

9. Agricultural Preservation: Abbotsford is known as the “City in the Country” due to its rich agricultural land. What policies would you implement to protect agricultural land while balancing the need for urban development?

There are several ways to balance the needs of urban development and agricultural needs:

Protect ALR land, ensuring agricultural lands are not sitting dormant and are being used for farming and growing food.

If the soil content is poor for farming, build greenhouses or raise cattle and other livestock.

Repurpose city owned properties that sit vacant to create affordable housing.

10. Provincial Vision: What is your broader vision for the province of British Columbia, and how does Abbotsford fit into your plan for future provincial development and prosperity?

I have a vision to lower costs and create jobs - my platform centers on lowering the costs of everyday essentials, including gasoline, food, and housing. By Investing in local industries, constructing agricultural processing plants, lumber mills, and gasoline refineries within British Columbia. These developments will create hundreds of well-paying jobs and significantly reduce the costs of goods and services.

When British Columbians save on essentials, they can invest in local businesses and services, fueling a positive economic cycle where everyone benefits. This strategy will drive economic growth and stabilize prices.

You can join the movement for real change - I encourage voters to get involved and support my campaign for a brighter future. Together we can make Abbotsford a leader in education, agriculture, healthcare, and economic prosperity.

Vote for a government that prioritizes Abbotsford’s need and is committed to delivering real results.

Empowering Farmers: Introducing Innovative Mental Health Initiative AgLife and Expanded Counselling Services

Langley, BC / April 18, 2024 – The agricultural sector in British Columbia faces unique challenges, ranging from isolation to financial pressures, emphasizing the urgent need for enhanced mental health support. AgSafe and CMHA BC are pleased to announce the official launch of AgLife (aglife.ca), a suicide prevention and mental health awareness initiative that will offer the agriculture sector access to resources, information, training and education and support navigating mental health challenges. This initiative is part of the Agriculture and Food Workforce Development Initiative that the Government of Canada, the Province of BC, and the Investment Agriculture Foundation of BC announced in June 2023. In addition, the Province of BC has allocated additional funding to expand counselling services offered through AgSafe.

Pam Alexis, B.C. Minister of Agriculture and Food, emphasized the significance of this initiative: “Being a farmer can be both rewarding and challenging, and producers need to know we are here to help them when times are tough. AgSafe BC’s staff and resources offer understanding and support from people who know both the pressures of farming and how important it is to look after our own wellbeing first.”

The launch of AgLife and the AgLife Connector program marks the beginning of an exciting journey towards improved mental well-being in agriculture. Some key initiatives and resources available through AgLife’s digital platform include:

The AgLife Connector Program – Building a Peer Network: AgLife will train a network of agricultural community service providers, known as AgLife Connectors, to identify signs of distress or suicide among farmers. These Connectors, deeply embedded within farming communities, will facilitate timely referrals to support services, strengthening local networks of aid.

Ongoing Counselling: AgSafe will continue offering personalized one-on-one counseling services. These sessions, available in-person, virtually, or over the phone, ensure that agricultural producers, workers, and their families receive tailored support whenever required. In the 12-month period April 1, 2023 – March

31, 2024, 127 individuals have accessed the counselling services.

Online Training Modules: In collaboration with CMHA BC and other community partners, AgLife will develop and provide online training modules tailored to equip farmers with practical tools to manage their mental well-being effectively, addressing the unique challenges they face.

“By attending a free AgLife Connector training, participants will gain invaluable information about suicide prevention and mental health awareness specific to agriculture,” says Matt Treble, Manager, Suicide Prevention & Life Promotion “This training teaches valuable skills, including an easy 3-step model, that participants can use to help support fellow members of BC’s agricultural industry.”

AgSafe and CMHA BC are excited to share AgLife with the BC agriculture sector. This initiative represents a pivotal step forward in expanding mental wellness services. AgLife embodies our collective commitment to supporting the mental health of farmers across British Columbia

“We are excited to add AgLife Connectors to our AgSafe ecosystem of supports. These connectors are poised to play a pivotal role in establishing a robust support system for farmers.” says Wendy Bennett, Executive Director of AgSafe BC. “Through astute observation, effective communication, and genuine care, these connectors will serve as a lifeline for individuals grappling with mental health challenges within the agricultural realm.”

Facts and Findings:

Farmers in Canada score higher levels of burnout than farmers in other countries. Farmers are disproportionately impacted by suicide, so evidence-based mental health programming that meets the unique needs of agricultural producers is critical. Mental health literacy programs for farmers and those who work closely with them improve attitudes towards those struggling with their mental health and increase helping behaviours. In 2021, BC’s provincial Mental Health Support Line reported a 15 to 20 percent increase in calls since the catastrophic Sumas prairie floods in November. A manager with the service

said hard-hit farmers were making up the bulk of those new calls.

If you or someone you know is in crisis and/or is having thoughts of suicide, help is available 24-7 in BC at 1(800) SUICIDE (call) or nationally at 988 (call and text) If you or someone you know is in immediate physical danger or needs urgent medical attention, call 9-1-1.

Mental health support and resource information is available 24/7 in B.C. at 310-6789 (no area code needed).

About AgLife

Developed in collaboration and as a partnership between AgSafe and the Canadian Mental Health Association of BC (CMHA BC), AgLife is a suicide prevention and mental health awareness initiative to improve agricultural mental well-being in British Columbia. The AgLife initiative includes training an organized network of volunteers to prevent suicide, providing agriculture-specific training to distress

line operators, enhancing mental health resilience resources, and facilitating access to agriculturally aware counselors for BC farmers and ranchers.

About AgSafe:

AgSafe is the non-profit health and safety association for agricultural producers in British Columbia, providing site-specific consultation and on-site safety education, as well as online workplace safety resources and materials. AgSafe is also the COR Certifying Partner for B.C.’s agricultural and associated industries and offers a Certificate of Recognition (COR) program for large and small employers.

The Patrika 2024 BC Provincial Elections Questionnaire NDP

Combined answers for BC NDP Candidates – Pam Alexis (Abbotsford - Mission), Sarah Kooner (Abbotsford South), Graeme Hutchison (Abbotsford West) and John Aldag (Langley – Abbotsford)

1. Local Economy: Abbotsford is a hub for agriculture and small businesses. What is your plan to support the local economy, particularly in light of post-pandemic recovery challenges?

Abbotsford is known as the Bread Basket of British Columbia, and its farmers provide significant contributions towards British Columbia’s food security.

The BC NDP will continue to work closely with agricultural stakeholders, and have committed to co-developing a Provincial AgriFood Competitiveness and Growth Strategy.

Other BC NDP initiatives include:

Inventorying and protecting agricultural land for future generations.

Working with the industry to identify land and opportunities for agricultural innovation and food processing.

Supporting young farmers who want to help feed BC by matching them with farmland available for purchase or lease.

An expanded perennial crow renewal program The Extreme Weather Preparedness fund.

If there are barriers for producers or ways to support a more efficient sector, we want to find solutions. After speaking with many farmers in the region, David Eby and the BC NDP know just how tight the margins can be for food producers. John Rustad plans on blowing wide-open the current protections of Agricultural Land Reserves that ensure land prices in the region do not rise to rates that squeeze out farmers, or impact food prices. The agricultural sector needs stability to thrive and the fruit of that labour is all of our reward.

2. Housing and Affordability: Abbotsford, like much of BC, faces a housing affordability crisis. What steps would you take to ensure affordable housing for both current residents and newcomers to the area?

Abbotsford is a great place to live, but like many other places, housing is too expensive. We’re up against high interest rates and real estate speculators who want to cash in on our housing market. People want to be able to afford a home and build a good life here.

The BC NDP will encourage municipal partnerships to build more housing through a new local infrastructure investment fund that’s tied to housing starts, while offering more flexibility to cities exceeding those targets. We will drive the construction of more market rental housing by waiving provincial property taxes for new purpose-built rental projects. We will prioritize housing for public land. We’ll never sell public land that is suitable for attainable housing to be built on. Instead, we’ll partner with the non-profit and private sector to build attainable middle-income housing.

People in BC are paying too much for rent. 25% of renters spend more than half their monthly income on it. We’ll provide more land

for non-market and co-op housing, build more homes on it, and help non-profits take care of those homes. We will work with municipalities to prioritize the construction of affordable, non-market housing.

3. Transportation and Infrastructure: As Abbotsford grows, traffic congestion and infrastructure challenges become more pressing. How do you propose improving transportation networks both within the city and its connections to surrounding areas? People in the Fraser Valley spend a lot of time commuting to and from work, and improving the local infrastructure is a priority for the BC NDP.

For those who rely on a vehicle for work, highway improvements to the final segments of Highway 1 between Abbotsford and Chilliwack will help reduce the traffic bottleneck.

For others who utilize public transit, the BC NDP will expand the West Coast Express commuter train to Chilliwack and will add a dedicated rapid bus service on the newly expanded Highway 1.

Communities in the Fraser Valley will also be connected through a new rail service, working jointly with CP Rail.

David Eby and the BC NDP have invested billions in public infrastructure projects servicing the Fraser Valley, after years of neglect from the previous Rustad government. With this continued work, in addition to the commitments around highway improvements and additional transit opportunities, a BC NDP government will improve the daily commute times for people in the Fraser Valley.

Too many people in our community cannot access the healthcare they need when it is needed. This is what the entire BC NDP team and I are prepared to take action on to provide a robust public healthcare system that is accessible and efficient.

We must improve working conditions and build viable recruitment and retention measures to ensure that doctors, nurses, and healthcare professionals remain local. We have worked with healthcare unions, hired 800+ new doctors, prepared the opening for a new in-province medical school, opened Urgent and Primary Care Centres and ensured new long-term care beds are available to our residents. We’re not done. I will keep working with our local health authorities, healthcare unions, and facilities to ensure that safe, effective, and efficient care is accessible to all.

John Rustad’s BC Conservatives are planning to cut healthcare funding by $4.1 billion; our community simply cannot afford this.

5. Public Safety and Business Protection: Abbotsford has faced challenges with gang violence and crime in recent years. In ad-

dition, South Asian-owned businesses have been specifically targeted in some recent extortion cases. What initiatives do you plan to implement to address public safety and protect all businesses in the community?

We need to continue to make sure police officers on the frontlines have what they need to go after gangs, stop domestic violence, and get guns off our streets.

The BC NDP will also continue anti-gang programs, like the new Integrated Gang Homicide Team. The team focuses on investigating gangrelated homicides and improving intelligence coordination related to gang activities.

We will continue ramping up the seizure of proceeds of organized crime to deny profits to criminal networks and close down gang houses, take their cars, and seize properties used by criminals with the knowledge of the property’s owner.

We will keep repeat violent and gang offenders off the streets by pushing Ottawa for stronger bail and sentencing conditions, along with easier access to dangerous offender designations for violent people who need to stay behind bars.

John Rustad has said he would direct the Police to not enforce Federal gun laws. This would put people in Abbotsford at greater risk of organized crime. Federal gun laws target the weapons that gang members use to kill each other and terrify neighbourhoods. Leaving police empty-handed in this fight against organized and brutally violent gangs and criminals is reckless and disrespects the personal sacrifices police officers make to keep our neighborhoods safe.

Police need every available tool to keep our neighbourhoods and schools safe. Only the BC NDP are committed to giving them everything they need to enforce gun laws.

Climate-caused disasters like wildfires, floods, droughts and storms are taking an unimaginable toll on Abbotsford and our province –threatening lives and livelihoods, displacing families and destroying homes, and cutting into the core of our communities.

Unlike John Rustad, we do believe there’s a climate crisis and that we need to act now to prepare for and prevent its impacts. That’s why, in 2022, David Eby created a stand-alone Ministry of Emergency Management and Climate Readiness to help make sure we do more to keep people and communities safe.

We are making sure BC communities have secure sources of clean water for the future by putting land use and watershed planning in the hands of local communities, farmers and businesses in partnership with First Nations,

and supporting those communities to identify and prioritize local water use.

We are advancing work on flood prevention in the Sumas Prairie by integrating flood mitigation infrastructure with our Highway 1 expansion.

7. Taxation and Small Business Support: Small businesses in Abbotsford have expressed concerns about rising taxes and regulatory burdens. How would you ensure that small businesses, including family-run and ethnic businesses, thrive in Abbotsford?

David Eby and the BC NDP want a province where small businesses don’t just succeed; they have the opportunity to thrive and prosper. That is why we have helped small businesses with the costs they face and their labour market challenges.

To help with business costs, the BC NDP cut the small business tax rate, keeping it 25% lower than when Rustad was in government. Tax relief also came as a result of the new tools we provided municipalities, empowering them to provide property tax relief to businesses. We also doubled the exemption threshold for Employer Health Tax (EHT), ensuring that 90% of businesses no longer pay EHT. These are only a few of the important cost-saving actions we have taken.

Our plan also includes additional cost-saving commitments, like changing the PST filing from monthly to quarterly. We will help small business owners avoid the high cost of resolving disputes with landlords through the courts by expanding the online dispute resolution tribunal to include business-landlord disputes. The BC NDP government is also helping parents return to work and support their local economies with our record investments in new childcare spaces and fee-reduction measures. In addition, our BC Access Grants and Future Skills Grants are helping connect businesses with the employees they need to grow.

The toxic drug crisis has taken far too many lives. These are our neighbours, our friends, and our family members. We have to throw everything we’ve got at this crisis, which means overdose prevention, treatment, and support to get people back on their feet.

The BC NDP is taking action on all fronts to fight the toxic drug crisis. This includes opening more beds and building new treatment facilities across the province so that more people can get the help they need. We have also launched new, dignified, secure care so that people with severe mental illness, addiction, and brain injuries can get help to keep themselves safe.

We are committed to getting people with addictions the right care in the right place when they are ready, with tailored, publicly-funded

NDP - Abbotsford Mission - Pam Alexis aYnzIpI

Pam Alexis was elected as the MLA for Abbotsford-Mission in 2020. She served as chair of the Caucus Committees on Economy and Health, which worked to provide recommendations on the continued opioid crisis in B.C. She was also a member of the Cabinet Committee on Economy, and the Select Standing Committee on Finance and Government Services.

She began her career in public service in 2005 serving as a school trustee until 2011. She served as a Mission city councillor from 2014-18 before holding the office of mayor from 2018-20.

From 2014-20, she sat on the AbbotsfordMission Joint Shared Services Committee, and the Fraser Valley Regional District executive committee. She worked closely with the city of Abbotsford on shared issues, including water, sewer and transit, and gained a greater

understanding of the issues facing Abbotsford and residents east of Mission.

Prior to entering politics, she served with many boards and non-profits, including the Mission Chamber of Commerce (vice-president), the Rotary Club of Mission Midday, and the Sunshine Rotary Club, where she also served as president and earned four Paul Harris Fellowships. From 2012-15, she was the vice-president of the BC Winter Games.

She has a bachelor of arts from the University of Victoria and obtained her post degree professional program certificate in 1982 with a focus in English and theatre.

NDP- Langley Abbotsford - John Aldag

John Aldag grew up on a farm on the prairies, where he learned the value of kindness, hard work, and the contribution that rural communities and agriculture make to our food security and our common prosperity. In 2005, John and his family chose to make Langley their home. He sought federal office in 2015 to ensure that his community had strong local representation, serving seven years in Parliament. Inspired by David Eby, John has left the federal Liberal party to join the BC NDP and is seeking office as the MLA for Langley-Abbotsford to ensure that his community has a representative in the legislature that is on their side.

“The people of Abbotsford and the Fraser Valley have experienced a lot in the last few years, from a global pandemic to 2021’s devastating floods and the washouts of Highway 1 and Highway 7. We understand why it’s so critical to have a government that’s in your corner,” said Aldag. “The BC NDP has taken action to improve the Valley’s security and prosperity,

continued from previous page

treatment and support, from detox to after-care. We will do everything we can to get people the help they need.

In British Columbia, land designated as an Agricultural Land Reserve (ALR) is prioritized for agricultural use. This policy is fundamental to our ability to protect British Columbia’s rich agricultural land. Without this protected status, our fields will be slowly overtaken till concrete fills more fields than hay.

including a $300 million investment in food security and climate resilience for food producers. When Rustad was in cabinet, his government slashed supports to farmers. The BC NDP will be in the agricultural sector’s corner.”

“In federal office, John passed bills tackling cancers related to firefighting and took on multiple complex files, from Natural Resources to Indigenous and Northern Affairs,” said Premier David Eby. “The people of Langley-Abbotsford can count on him to put that experience to work for them.”

John Aldag will join David Eby and 91 other exceptional BC NDP candidates in this fall’s provincial election, all committed to real action to help people build a good life here in BC.

John Rustad plans to chip away at this protected status, ignoring the threat of land speculation on the approximately 4.6 million hectares with ALR designation. David Eby and the BC NDP are creating an ALR inventory and will work with industry to carefully identify land for agricultural innovation and food processing. We will match young farmers with available farmland and continue to protect agricultural land for future generations.

10. Provincial Vision: What is your broader vision for the province of British Columbia, and how does Abbotsford fit into your plan for future provincial development and prosperity?

One of our main guiding principles is providing more stability for people in uncertain times.

So many people in British Columbia have come to rely on the savings the BC NDP team has delivered – from eliminating MSP fees to saving tens of thousands of dollars on childcare to reducing your ICBC premiums.

While John Rustad and the BC Conservatives have said they’ll cancel many of the steps we’ve taken to bring your costs down, we will continue to defend the progress we’ve made together – while finding more ways to reduce your costs.

We are committed to growing a strong province and economy with good-paying jobs and efficient government.

This means leveraging our clean electricity advantage and growing investment that fuels high-value, made-in-BC products and goodpaying jobs. It means investing in healthy, more livable communities for families — building the schools, hospitals, roads, and transit systems we will rely on for generations. Delivering food security for BC through a stronger agriculture industry is also key to the prosperity of Abbotsford and the province. To do this, we need to make life more secure for our farmers in Abbotsford and around the province. We are working with the BC Agriculture Council, agriculture industry stakeholders, First Nations, and local governments to co-develop a Provincial Agri-Food Competitiveness and Growth Strategy.

How tech can help you take charge of your health

Canada is facing a doctor shortage, which may impact your access to a family physician if your current one retires or if you move. This is particularly concerning for adults 65 and older, who face increased risks of diseases and health complications.

Here are two easy technology-based solutions to help loved ones think proactively about their health:

Virtual care: With virtual care services, you can consult with doctors from the comfort of your home, regardless of location or mobility. One option for virtual care is Maple, a platform offering monthly memberships to chat with a primary care provider at any time of day or night.

Better health monitoring: Wearable health monitors, like smartwatches, and automatic pill dispensers make it easier than ever to track your health.

Thinking proactively about health can help individuals stay healthy for longer. Learn more about virtual health-care options at getmaple.ca.

Any hectic activity that has just started to You are in a good position to make some final decisions on something you may have first considered late July to mid August. The position of somebody else may be clearer now, particularly if they decide to bring something to an end. If this does happen it can make it easier in some way when it comes to normal routines in life.

Someone else can be very straightforward as to what they either like or expect from you. Be careful you don’t read into this more than is being offered, particularly if there is an expectation for you to take on responsibilities or to put things in place. Make decisions up to late September that will keep you in control of your finances.

Whatever you had to rethink when it comes to putting things in place since mid August will now allow you to be clear of mind to late September when it comes to something that might have been first discussed late July to mid August. You can now make decisions that please you. Don’t be tempted to spend too much though.

You are in an excellent position to be able to make decisions to late September that will take your life forward. You can feel as though you have greater personal choice or some control at last. There might be a second stage to this from January to April next year and for this reason it could be wise to ensure there is some flexibility.

Whatever financial decisions you may have first considered from late July to mid August can now be looked at more thoroughly, especially in relation to the best actions to take to be able to move forward. You need to be able to satisfy your own priorities, which may not necessarily fit in with the expectations of somebody else.

You are in a good position to come to realisations regarding any situations where you might feel as though you are taking on more than is reasonable on a regular basis. This is more about making decisions to bring matters to an end where commitments attached will have an inhibiting effect on possible future accomplishments.

Focus on anything you are determined to develop more for your own independence in the future. You can realise that contemplation alone will not move things forward. From now to early September you need to look at the commitments that would need to be taken on. Doing this in stages will help you to get used to the changes.

You could come to the realisation, from now to late September, that it is better to scale down ideas you might have had late July to mid August to be able to take these things into the future successfully. Others might have bigger ambitions but you can be happier with small steps, allowing you to have a feeling of better control.

Having absolute confidence about how you stand on any matter will engender respect from others, even though they may not fully agree with you. This could result in clarity when it comes to commitment and support, which may have been an issue from late July to mid August and was left hanging. Be mindful of the obligations you take on.

Something you thought had become evident since mid August where someone else’s decision making is concerned could again become more unknown to late September. It could be that they need to withdraw to make final decisions. These could involve taking your priorities into account as well as generating some sort of pleasure in life.

You are in a position to late September to contemplate future plans and possibilities that you may have wanted from late July to mid August but could not finalise. You have the opportunity to engage with others and get a response. This could also have a lot to do with leaving the past behind up to 20th November so you can move on with a new life direction.

Something that wasn’t made perfectly clear or finalised by somebody else between late July and mid August can now return to late September where final decisions need to be made by them. It can be up to you to ensure they do not avoid responsibilities that could leave you with too much to get properly organised or put into place.
