2024 Infiniti QX60 Autobiography: Luxury SUV is More Refined.

The 2024 Infiniti QX60 is a sleek three-row premium crossover utility vehicle that offers a good combination of luxury and versatility. After a new 2023 redesign it is now at a new level of luxury with a stellar good look, improved fuel economy and new tech features. Externally, the revised QX60 carries a smart contemporary look with a new grille, and bi-xenon headlamps. All trims come with a 3.5L V6 engine providing 295 horsepower. There’s an all-new ninespeed automatic transmission, and All-Wheel-Drive is standard on all models. There is 12 percent less cabin noise than in the previous generation.

The 2024 models interior is also revamped with a theatre-styled layout for better occupant visibility. The dash also has a new 10.8-inch head-up display, along with a new 12.3-inch interactive display. Also fresh is wireless Apple CarPlay and USB-based An - droid Auto, second- and third- row roofmounted vents, and the premium Bose audio system that comes standard in the Sensory and Autograph trims. Also new is updated and expanded functionality to ProPILOT

Assist with Navi-Link compatibility.

The QX60 comes in four trims — Pure, Luxe, Sensory, and the top trim, Autograph. The Pure starts at $54,995, while the high-tech equipped Autograph as tested starts at $67,995. The top Sensory AWD Model arrives lavishly equipped and priced at $72,490 all in.

The 2024 Infiniti QX60 comes wellequipped. Standard equipment is luxurious and generous and our top line Autobiography version came with20 -inch wheel package, Intelligent all-wheel drive, tri-zone automatic climate control, semi aniline leather upholstery with heated poweradjustable front seats and intelligent key with push-button start. There was also: heated leather wrapped steering wheel, Head-Up Display, 2.3 colour display with rear-view monitor, automatic HID headlights, cruise control, high spec audio system, power tailgate and rear privacy glass.

Inside, the QX60 looks suitably luxurious and well designed with sharp leather seats and nice textures, materials, and a high standard of fit and finish. Soft-touch materials abound for driver and passengers, and the overall ambience is very good. The sumptuous leather seats offer superb comfort and set off by gorgeous black open pore wood trim. The dash and console feature plenty of technology accessed by a host of buttons and switches. The interior is

extremely versatile with full sliding second-row seats that allow easy access to the third row. The second-row splits 60/40, slides, reclines, and can be tilted forward for third-row access even with a child seat in place.

The third-row seat is surprisingly roomy, but still only for kids. With the Second and third row seats folded there’s up to 2,166 L of available cargo space compared to 447 L of cargo space when all seats are up. Meanwhile, the 50/50 split folding third row can be quickly and easily folded flat to expand the cargo area. The second row’s captain chairs are only available in the Autograph trim as tested, which also includes a removable centre console.

The third row is typical of a threerow SUV: the QX60 holds 411 litres behind the third row, but it also has an extra 54 litres of underfloor storage. The third row’s seats easily fold down and are power operated on the two top trim levels.

On the road, the QX60s V6 engine offers a robust 295 horsepower, while torque is a healthy 295 lb-ft. The new nine-speed auto transmission offers sublime smooth up and down shifts while a dial on the center-console tunnel offers four driving modes: Standard, Sport, Snow, and Eco. Sport offers more throttle response, while Standard is a good all-round driving mode. Suspension tweaks have improved the crossover’s handling somewhat. Body roll is less evident, and the QX60 takes corners better. Still with

its light steering and rather soft ride, the QX60 is also much quieter than the previous generation and is still more of a comfortable cruiser, than a sporty handling SUV. If you plan to tow a trailer or boat, the lower two trims have a 3,500-pound capacity, while the top two versions can handle a 6,000-pound towing load.

Nothing much to gripe about, note the improved fuel economy in this all-new QX60 — it now has a combined rating of 10.7 L/100 km, 11.9 city, and 9.3 highway. Downsides are few; buyers need to weigh up the premium models and the numerous options are worth the high cost when optioned out. The 2024 QX60 is very impressive and nice to drive all day long. A wonderfully executed luxury Crossover. Highly recommended.

City Council Takes Major Leap Towards Creating More Equitable City

Vancouver City Council took a major step toward a more equitable city by approving the recommendations outlined in the Equity Lens Review of City By-Laws. As the first known major jurisdiction in North America to conduct a comprehensive review of by-laws and their equity impacts, Vancouver is taking the lead on equity and inclusivity.

City staff actioned this review following a motion championed by Councillor Lenny Zhou, which was passed by Council in February 2023.

“Our Council is committed to ensuring equity is at the forefront of everything we do,” said Mayor Ken Sim. “By taking these steps, we’re ensuring Vancouver’s by-laws reflect our core values of equity and fairness, creating an environment where both residents and visitors alike feel included, welcomed and celebrated in our city.”

The review, conducted in alignment with the Equity Framework, identified nine priority recommendations aimed at fostering fair and inclusive outcomes for Vancouver residents. Key initiatives include enhancing rental and social housing availability, supporting low-impact home-based

businesses, and improving living conditions for tenants. Additionally, the review highlights the need to enhance physical accessibility, facilitate access to public washrooms, and support cultural districts through zoning regulations.

The implementation plan included in the report outlines a phased approach to develop amendments that will be brought forward to Council as they are scoped and assessed for feasibility by respective departmental teams. This ensures that each amendment reflects the Equity Framework’s principles and addresses specific equity impacts identified in the review.

“This review represents a crucial milestone in our ongoing commitment to equity,” said Councillor Lenny Zhou. “Vancouver is proud of its incredible diversity. By applying the Equity Framework to future bylaws and ongoing amendments, we’re shaping a more equal and inclusive future for all residents of our city.”

Moving forward, City Council will direct staff to pilot the application of the Equity Framework to upcoming by-laws, ensuring that equity considerations are embedded in all future municipal laws and regulations.

B.C. invests in family doctors through new medical school at SFU

More family doctors will be trained faster as the new medical school at Simon Fraser University (SFU) moves forward with funding for space and operations, as well as a proposed three-year curriculum model and a founding dean.

“We’re training a new generation of doctors with a focus on family medicine to provide the services we need in our communities,” said Premier David Eby. “This investment in the first entirely new medical school in Western Canada in 55 years will mean more family doctors graduating each year to provide care for people.”

The interim site is at the existing building space at SFU’s Surrey campus, as well as a leased space nearby. SFU will design, renovate and equip the spaces to accommodate classrooms, labs, and faculty and staff office space. The Province is supporting the medical school through $33.7 million in capital funding for interim space, alongside $27 million in operational funding through Budget 2024. This builds on a previous $14 million for startup and planning.

“The new medical school is a vital part of training more family doctors and meeting the health-care needs of people in British Columbia,” said Lisa Beare, Minister of Post-Secondary Education and Future Skills. “This government is focused on delivering results, and through this interim space and the operational funding to support this medical school at SFU’s Surrey campus, we’re taking action to train the doctors of tomorrow and build the primary care workforce for all of B.C.”

“Taking action to increase access to primary care for people in B.C. is a top priority of our government,” said Adrian Dix, Minister of Health. “By establishing a new medical school at SFU - the first in Western Canada in more than half a century - with a focus on family medicine and training the next generations of physicians, we are putting people first and building an inclusive public health-care system that people can count on.”

In May 2024, SFU’s senate and board of governors formally approved the establishment of a school of medicine. The school is working toward candidate status with the Committee on the Accreditation of Canadian Medical Schools, with the goal of preliminary accreditation by fall 2025. Upon successful completion of planned accreditation stages within this timeframe, the school will have approval to recruit its first class to start in summer 2026.

“I’m thrilled to celebrate this milestone for the School of Medicine and look forward to all it will accomplish for SFU, Surrey and our province,” said Joy Johnson, president and vicechancellor, Simon Fraser University. “Everyone deserves health care that is effective, accessible, inclusive and culturally safe. We are working hard to build a school of medicine that will educate the next generation of physicians and make a difference for British Columbians in communities across the province.”

On July 4, 2024, SFU’s board approved Dr. David J. Price as the founding dean for the medical school. An alumnus of the UBC faculty of medicine, he practised comprehensive family medicine, including obstetrics and palliative care, in Vancouver for more than a decade. A nationally recognized leader in family medicine and primary care, he has held faculty and leadership roles in the department of family medicine at McMaster University since 2000.

Training and retaining new physicians is part of B.C.’s Health Human Resources Strategy, which focuses on 70 key actions to recruit, train and retain health-care workers in the province, while redesigning the health-care system to foster workplace satisfaction and innovation.

Through the StrongerBC: Future Ready Action Plan, the Province is making education and training more accessible, affordable and relevant to help prepare the people of B.C. for the jobs of today and tomorrow.

More than 100 homes open for Indigenous people in Surrey

Indigenous individuals, families and Elders are getting the keys to another 104 affordable homes in Surrey with the opening of Phase 2 of the Sohkeyah development.

“True reconciliation begins when everyone has a safe, affordable and culturally appropriate place to lay their head at night,” said Ravi Kahlon, Minister of Housing. “For too long, Indigenous Peoples, like many other British Columbians, have struggled to find safe housing they can afford in growing communities like Surrey, which is why our government is investing in projects like Sohkeyah with more still to come.”

Phase 2 of Sohkeyah (pronounced so-key-yah and meaning robin’s nest) at 7565 140th St. consists of 104 homes: 44 units in a three-storey building and 66 units in a four-storey building. Residents started moving in this month. Combined with 73 homes completed in Phase 1 in 2019, Sohkeyah has a total of 177 homes.

Each building in Phase 2 includes a mix of studio, one-, two- and threebedroom homes, amenity rooms, kitchens and lounge areas. Outside features include play areas with pathways encircling the site to build community among Elders and children.

“Surrey is home to the largest urban population of Indigenous Peoples anywhere in B.C. and we understand there’s a critical need to fill the housing gap,” said Harry Bains, MLA for Surrey-Newton. “That’s exactly why we’re working with partners like the Kekinow Native Housing Society to deliver projects just like this.”

The project is owned and operated by the Kekinow Native Housing Society with support from the Aboriginal Housing Management Association.

This project is part of a $19-billion housing investment by the B.C. government. Since 2017, the Province has nearly 80,000 homes that have been delivered or are underway, including more than 1,800 homes in Surrey.

Quotes:

Robin Henry, president, Kekinow Native Housing Society –

“A home should be a sanctuary – a place to live in peace, security and dignity. Sohkeyah Phase 2 will help to make a positive impact on the lives of Indigenous individuals and families to be housed in these 104 new apartments in Surrey. This milestone is achieved due to an insightful housing investment of the Province of B.C. and support from the City of Surrey.”

Margaret Pfoh, CEO, Aboriginal Housing Management Association –

“These 104 affordable homes come at a critical time to save many Indigenous families and Elders at risk of homelessness. We raise our hands to Kekinow Native Housing Society for their great work over the last four decades and to our Province for investing in urban Indigenous housing.”

Brenda Locke, mayor of Surrey –

“With the largest Indigenous population in the metro area, the Sohkeyah development has been a welcome addition to Surrey. Providing a wide range of housing is essential if we are to solve the housing crisis facing British Columbia. I would like to thank the Ministry of Housing for its funding support, and the Kekinow Native Housing Society and the Aboriginal Housing Management Association for the integral roles they played in making this much-needed project happen.”

More help coming for people resolving family law matters

More people throughout the province will have access to a service that helps resolve family law matters earlier.

Building on existing family justice services, the early resolution process aims to build knowledge, support problem solving and help families prepare for the next steps in their family law matters. The process, which is currently available in Victoria and Surrey, is being widely expanded. The expansion will begin with the Port Coquitlam Provincial Court family registry in November 2024. Between April and November 2025, the service will expand to Provincial Court family registries in Abbotsford, Chilliwack, New Westminster, North Vancouver, Pemberton, Richmond, Sechelt and Vancouver (Robson Square).

The process is designed to reduce conflict and build skills to prevent

future conflict through earlier resolutions that are customized to a family’s needs and, ultimately, help families to resolve their family law matters. It provides early preparation for families, many of whom are without legal representation, through screening for family violence, identification of legal and non-legal needs, referrals to community organizations, assistance resolving disputes out-of-court and support preparing for the appropriate next steps. Families also receive information about the court process and other options, such as consensual dispute resolution.

The expansion of the process prioritizes resources for families that require formal judgment on a disputed matter and increases the court’s capacity to deal with other matters and ensures timely access to justice for more people in the province.

New Equipment to Help Babies and Paediatric Patients with Hard to Find Veins at Abbotsford Regional Hospital

It can occasionally be challenging for health care professionals to detect veins inhumans. This is especially true in the case of babies and infants who may have for hard to see veins; and/or distress from being in the hospital space. Now thanks to funding from Fraser Valley Health Care Foundation Abbotsford Regional Hospital has received state-of-theart equipment for Maternal, Child, Infant and Youth patients-in-care. Elizabeth Harris, executive director, of the Foundation is “especially pleased to fund this simple and easy-to-use technology, which will most definitely help improve patient experience”. The new vein finder is a hand held device that uses infrared light to help identify and locate veins beneath the skin making the process a lot smoother than previous methods.

The new easy-to-use equipment is safe, efficient and will definitely help create a calmer experience for patients. One of the nurses of the unit described how thankful she was for the vein finder “recently we had a patient in triage, and it was very difficult to see any of veins but when we brought in the vein finder we were able to easily find her veins and start her IV. The patient was very happy”. Dr. Jassal, donor relations, says “by helping to quickly and efficiently locate veins and arteries Fraser Health care teams are able to deliver excellent health care for even the smallest patients”. The Foundation relies on the support of the community to help fund state-of-the art equipment and if you would like to support our projects please contact: Lakhbir.Jassal@ fraserhealth.ca.

A nearly $200-million partnership between Aspect Biosystems and the governments of B.C. and Canada will create more than 200 jobs and advance the development of cuttingedge bioprinted tissue therapeutics for people in B.C. and around the globe. “B.C. is home to the fastest-growing life sciences sector in Canada, as we support incredible opportunities for the private sector to invest in B.C. as a centre for innovation and cutting-edge technology,” said Brenda Bailey, B.C. Minister of Jobs, Economic Development and Innovation. “Helping B.C.-based life sciences and biomanufacturing companies like Aspect anchor and grow in our province is enhancing health-care outcomes for British Columbians and creating hundreds of new, high-paying, highly skilled jobs for people.”

toward the project, which has a total value of as much as $200 million.

Aspect Biosystems is a Vancouverbased biotech company pioneering the development of bioprinted tissue therapeutics to transform the treatment of disease. Bioprinted tissue therapeutics are implantable, cell-based therapies, which replace or repair biological functions in the body, such as sensing glucose and releasing insulin, that have been lost or damaged due to disease.

“Today’s investment in Aspect Biosystems strengthens Canada’s biotech sector, enhancing innovation and leadership in health care,” said François-Philippe Champagne, federal Minister of Innovation, Science and Industry. “It accelerates our transition from ideas to globally competitive products, while also bolstering our response to health emergencies, attracting international investments and creating high-quality jobs for Canadians. British Columbia’s impressive talent pool further fuels our innovation and leadership in the next generation of medicines.” Building on B.C.’s Life Sciences and Biomanufacturing Strategy, the Province is contributing approximately $23.8 million toward Aspect’s expansion in Vancouver. The Government of Canada is contributing $49 million

“This significant investment from the governments of Canada and B.C. sends a strong signal of support for building and integrating the capabilities needed to discover, develop and clinically manufacture new medicines for people with serious diseases,” said Tamer Mohamed, chief executive officer, Aspect Biosystems. “This is a major step forward on our bold mission to pioneer an entirely new category of regenerative medicine and build an enduring and globally leading biotech that is delivering sustainable, life-changing impact to patients at home and around the world.” The project will see Aspect establish clinical biomanufacturing capabilities, advance its made-inB.C. technology platform and expand its therapeutic pipeline of bioprinted tissue therapeutics for serious metabolic and endocrine diseases, such as diabetes, obesity and liver disease. It is expected to create hundreds of highly skilled jobs in the B.C. life sciences and biomanufacturing sector, as well as lead to more training and development opportunities for post-secondary students.

“I’m excited to watch Aspect continue to grow in Vancouver and make our community its home,” said Joan Phillip, MLA for Vancouver-Mount Pleasant. “Aspect’s expansion will mean more jobs and health-care breakthroughs in our province helping improve life for people. It’s incredible to see this powerhouse of a sector continue to develop and drive innovation in B.C.” Clean and Competitive: A Blueprint for B.C.’s Industrial Future lays out the Province’s work to drive new investment, create new jobs and seize new opportunities in growing clean energy and sustainable industries. Leveraging B.C.’s strengths to create good jobs and opportunities in every community will improve quality of life, while strengthening B.C.’s diverse economy today and for future generations.

Diabetes and Its Impact on Oral Health

Diabetes can have a significant impact on your oral health, causing issues that go beyond just cavities and gum disease. Diabetes affects your body’s ability to utilize glucose, or blood sugar, for energy. and cause many complications. These include nerve damage, heart disease, stroke, kidney disease, and even blindness. Another common health complication is gum disease and other oral health problems.

When blood sugar levels are consistently high, it can lead to increased bacteria growth in the mouth, which puts individuals at higher risk for

infections and oral diseases. Diabetes is also associated with an increased risk for oral thrush, a fungal infection. Additionally, people with diabetes are likely to have a dry mouth(xerostomia) with an increased risk of mouth ulcers. Saliva plays an essential role in maintaining good oral health by neutralizing acids produced by bacteria and washing away food particles that can contribute to decay. Without sufficient saliva flow, these protective mechanisms become compromised.

How Diabetes Affects Oral Health

Diabetes can significantly impact oral health in several ways, making effective oral hygiene and regular dental care crucial for individuals with this condition.

Gum Disease (Periodontitis):

Diabetes is a major risk factor for periodontitis, a severe form of gum disease. High blood glucose levels can impair the body's ability to fight infections, including those that occur in the gums. This can lead to inflammation, bleeding gums, and eventually, the destruction of the bone that supports teeth.

produced by bacteria in the mouth, washing away food particles, and protecting the oral tissues. Reduced saliva flow can increase the risk of tooth decay and infections in the mouth.

Dry Mouth (Xerostomia):

People with diabetes are more likely to experience dry mouth, which occurs when the salivary glands do not produce enough saliva. Saliva is essential for neutralizing acids

Thrush (Oral Candidiasis):

Elevated blood sugar levels can create an environment conducive to the growth of Candida, a type of fungus.

This can lead to oral thrush, characterized by white or red patches in the mouth that can be painful and cause discomfort.

Slow Healing:

Diabetes can impair the body’s ability to heal. This means that any cuts, sores, or surgical procedures in the mouth, such as tooth extractions or gum surgery, may take longer to heal, increasing the risk of infection.

Burning Mouth Syndrome:

Some individuals with diabetes may experience a burning sensation in their mouth, known as burning mouth syndrome. This can affect the tongue, gums, lips, inside of the cheeks, or the roof of the mouth, leading to significant discomfort.

Managing Oral Health with Diabetes

Effective management of oral health is essential for individuals with diabetes to prevent complications and

maintain overall well-being. Here are some strategies:

Maintain Blood Glucose Levels:

Keeping blood glucose levels within the target range is crucial. This helps reduce the risk of developing oral health issues and can improve the body’s ability to fight infections.

Regular Dental Visits:

Regular dental check-ups and cleanings are vital. Inform your dentist about your diabetes and any medications you are taking. This allows them to tailor your dental care appropriately.

Good Oral Hygiene Practices:

Brush your teeth at least twice a day with fluoride toothpaste and use dental floss daily. Consider using an antiseptic mouthwash to help reduce plaque buildup and fight bacteria.

Healthy Diet:

A balanced diet helps control blood sugar levels and supports oral health.

Local business owner celebrates 40 years in Canada

Paul Chheu, owner of Crossroads restaurant celebrates 13 in business as well as 40 years since immigrating to Canada. Paul started his journey working as a Chef in Phnom Pehn, Cambodia until he immigrated in 1984. He started a family and entrepreneurial journey in Calgary before settling in Abbotsford and purchasing Crossroads Restaurant in 2011.

“I knew right from the beginning that Abbotsford would be a great place to invest in,” shared Paul, “not just with our food service, but also working to build a community here.” Paul has been community minded since he took over Crossroads and hosts numerous community leader groups in his restaurant for daily, weekly or monthly meetings. Guests include the Abbotsford-Sumas Rotary Club, the Kiwanis Club of Abbotsford, Bikers Against Child Abuse, a Senior Support Group, an Astrologer group, the Abbotsford Shrine Club and many others.

The restaurant prides themselves on fast service and home cooked quality meals with some of the restaurant staff having been employed by Crossroads for decades. “As one of the longest running, independent, family-friendly restaurants in Abbotsford, we know our customers love the continuity of our established menu items. They know what they want and know what they will get.” said Paul.

There are many regulars that frequent the restaurant, but Paul especially appreciates a group of leaders in the agriculture community that he can expect most days for both breakfast and lunch. The unofficial meetup of farmers welcomes anywhere from 5 or 6, to 20 plus people represent-

ing the dairy, poultry and other ag industries.

On top of supporting many nonprofit organizations in Abbotsford, Paul has played a significant role in fundraising for Sign Fracture Care, a humanitarian organization that builds sustainable orthopaedic capacity in developing countries through education as well as manufacturing and donating instruments and implants to treat patients. Paul travelled with a group of volunteers back to Cambodia in 2019 to deliver tools and instruments as well as help with translation needs.

The restaurant withstood challenging times during the covid pandemic when various capacity and other restrictions were put in place. Paul is grateful to the community for their continued support during and after those times, “We would not still be here without the loyal support of this community and we look forward to serving them for many more years to come.”

Crossroads restaurant is open 7 days a week from 7:00am till 8:00pm, serving traditional breakfast menu items, an extensive burger menu and variety of menu options for lunch and dinner. Seniors and children’s menu pricing are available all day, every day. For more information, visit Crossroads at 1821 Sumas Way in Abbotsford.

Beating the Heat: Tips for Staying Cool During a Heat Wave

As temperatures soar and the sun beats down relentlessly, staying cool becomes not just a comfort but a necessity. Heat waves can be particularly challenging, posing health risks and making daily life uncomfortable. However, with a few simple strategies, you can effectively beat the heat and stay safe.

Stay Hydrated: One of the most crucial tips during a heat wave is to stay hydrated. Drink plenty of water throughout the day, even if you don't feel thirsty. Avoid drinks with caffeine or alcohol, as they can dehydrate you. Electrolyte drinks can also be beneficial, especially if you're sweating a lot.

Dress Appropriately: Wear lightweight, loose-fitting clothing in light colors. Dark colors absorb heat, while lighter colors reflect it. Opt for breathable fabrics such as cotton or linen, which allow for better air circulation and help sweat evaporate.

or stove, as they can heat up your home.

Check on Vulnerable Individuals: Keep an eye on those who are particularly vulnerable to heat, such as the elderly, young children, or individuals with chronic illnesses. Make sure they have access to cool environments and are staying hydrated.

Stay Informed: Pay attention to weather forecasts and heat advisories from local authorities. These alerts can provide valuable information on how to stay safe during extreme heat events.

Time Outdoor Activities: If you need to be outside, try to schedule activities during the cooler parts of the day, such as early morning or late evening. Avoid strenuous activity during peak heat hours, typically between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.

Cooling Techniques: Utilize cooling techniques such as taking cool showers or baths, or placing cool, damp towels on your neck or forehead. If you have access to a pool or a beach, take advantage of it for a refreshing dip.

Eat Light: Heavy meals can increase your body temperature, so opt for light, cold meals like salads, fruits, and vegetables. Avoid using the oven

Pets and Livestock: Don't forget about your pets and any livestock you may have. Ensure they have access to shade and plenty of water to prevent heat-related illnesses.

Know the Signs of Heat-Related Illness: Familiarize yourself with the symptoms of heat exhaustion and heatstroke, such as heavy sweating, dizziness, nausea, headache, rapid heartbeat, and confusion. If you or someone else shows signs of severe heat-related illness, seek medical attention immediately.

By following these tips, you can navigate through a heat wave with greater ease and protect yourself and your loved ones from the dangers of extreme heat. Remember, staying cool isn't just about comfort—it's about staying safe and healthy during challenging weather conditions.

The opportunity to be able to do things your way can seem a lucky break but what you need to be careful about is being overly confident. Some sort of balance an at underlying level needs to be maintained either to do with family or you might be reminded by family due to the fact they can sense the unexpected more than you.

The ability to have freedom of choice is important. You may have now come to the realisation that these things don’t necessarily need to cost a lot. If you have been able to become more settled of late with certain financial obligations you now have the opportunity to view the long term from a completely different perspective.

Mercury, the planet of thought and communication moves into your sign this week for its first stay until 26th July. Whatever decisions you make, particularly on a personal level in this time cannot be expected to be final. The position of other people is not something you can be entirely certain about, so let time take its course..

Someone else can expect to have more freedom and to be able to do things their way in the future without taking into account any added responsibility that may be landed with you. It is possible you have been doing too much and now they believe you can continue on. It is up to you to express exactly what you insist on and think.

Any effort you have put into something of late could result in feeling rewarded by a solid structure of some description that has been the hopeful expectation. This can take you to the next stage of planning the future goals or possibilities up to late July. Bear in mind though that this will just be the first stage. More will settle later.

Don’t be tempted to spend money on something you don’t really need, however small, this week. It might be that you get a lot of little things out of the way resulting in a sense that a good job has been done. Communication with others will pick up to late July. In some way it is a first stage – it will be repeated again later.

Something you might like to initiate either with friends or in any situation that involves a group of people can go well. You can be both creative with your ideas or conversation as well as practical. Be aware of the obligations that might come with it or any situation that somebody with authority may not be too pleased about.

Decisions can be finalised that can result in greater peace of mind in the future. You can feel settled about having established a situation that will give you a greater sense of security, particularly if you have felt that others could make decisions in the future that could affect you financially. You have successfully protected yourself.

You have likely experienced support when it comes to things important to you or in any situation that has involved you with a group of people, even friends. Either something you didn’t see coming or the way normal routines in your life could be interrupted might require you to contemplate matters further up to late July.

It might seem more important to fit in with others at the moment. With this attitude you could actually enjoy any responsibilities that go with it, especially if it is to do with young people and what they might be able to accomplish in the long term. Your focus can turn to obligations attached to getting a workable structure in place..

Social situations that have a degree of obligation attached can be a pleasant change to any hectic situations with others that have likely been the case of late that may have necessitated usual routines to be put on hold. Be mindful when it comes to responding to any expectations placed on you to late July as the whole picture may not be evident.

You should feel more confident of mind, especially if you are at a point of finalising something you have been working towards. It can bring a real sense of satisfaction. This can lead you to the next stage to late July that can be about putting regular routines in place. There can be a degree of experimentation with this as a final stage will come up later.

The City of Mission has implemented a Ban on All Open Burning within the boundaries of the City of Mission until further notice. This ban includes recreational fire pits. The prohibition does not include cooking stoves, barbeques, or CSA-rated or ULC-rated portable campfire apparatus using gas, propane, or briquettes, so long as the height of the flame is less than 15 centimetres and used on private property.

Occasional rain only temporarily reduces the fire hazard a small amount and the

hazard quickly rises again, so the burning ban will remain in place regardless of the weather until lifted by the City of Mission. Any person found in contravention of the fire ban may be liable to a fine.
